Dreamer Adventures

Celestia had brought Chara out into the gardens, secluded and serene, so as to confront her on what she felt was an important matter.

“Chara,” The motherly alicorn began, “You need to make friends.”

“But I have friends!” Chara said referring to Connor.

“Friends your own size and age.” Celestia retorted.

“but who am I going to make friends with? I'm certainly not making them in canterlot.” Chara said already having met a few nobles and absolutely hating their stuck-up ways.

Celestia took one look at Chara before bursting into wild laughter, wiping away a tear, Celestia coughed as she gathered her bearings. “No, no no no… I'm sending you to a small mare's only retreat, I believe the younglings call it… ‘Camp’.”

“There is no force on Earth or Heaven that will get me to go to camp…” Chara said in a deadpan voice absolutely loathing the idea of actually going to camp.

Celestia simply smirked, knowing exactly how this would play out…

In the air going to Ponyville

“There is nothing about this whole scenario that doesn't make me violently angry…” Chara said emotionlessly.

“Oh hush up,” The lone pegasus flying the carriage spoke out, “where you're going, you'll be top of the food chain by weeks end, plus, Connor is going through medics training, in case if you get hurt, along with Twilight.”

“You're not wrong… but I'm going to be away from my asriel and that makes me violently angry.” Chara replies to the Pegasus with a deadpan.

Rolling his eyes, the pegasus made a sharp dive and dropped off in front of the library. Standing at the library's door was Twilight, the unicorn holding a backpack and a sleeping bag.

“Oh good, you're here! Ready to go?” Twilight asked happily.

“No…” Chara replies with her hatred visible on her body

Connor walked out of Twilight's house with a huge knapsack full of medical magic books, medical supplies, and strangely enough, bottles of liquid light. Upon Chara eying them, Connor huffed nervously. “I can bottle my magic into liquid form… I want to study my Respite spell, see if there are any side effects before I keep using it… Same for all of Paladins magic, but the healing and buffing especially.”

Clearing her throat, Twilight motioned a hoof to Connor, “Connor will be leaving a few supplies with the counselor for this trip, it'll only be a week, and with all the activities planned, you'll be back home before you know it!”

“You both planned this, I know you did!” Chara sad accusingly as she pointed to the both of them. “You two wanted some alone time, huh?” She grinned “You both wanted to lose your V-card, huh?”

Connor’s face went dark. “I would never. NEVER do something so underhanded to a lady! I was going to leave you some chocolate to tide you over for the week, but now That cocoa be MINE!”

Chara falls to her knees. “NO! PLEASE! BE KIND TO THE SMOL LOLI!”

“One…” Twilight began with a darkened expression, “He's not my type, two… What's a loli?”

Connor huffed angrily ”Japanese term back home for a cute small girl.”

Confused but resolute, Twilight simply nod her head in understanding.

He grunted as the camp counselors arrived. “Like I wanted to go to some camp in the badlands to study my magic? Sure, Twilight being there is a HUGE plus… as is studying magic, I mean freaking magic man, what else would i want to study, agriculture? Nah,plants fear these hands. But… seriously, you know I hate the hot weather.” He sighed, seemingly tired already. “Seriously though, if you think I’m leaving you high and dry, just remember, that hook charm still works, and it works both ways, something tries to hurt you, I’ll come running.”

“What could actually hurt me or push me beyond my limits?” cocking an eyebrow and with arms crossed over her chest Chara asks.

“Do you really want me to answer that?” Twilight asked with a bit of snark, “I looked through Asriel's memories, I know what happened.” that really shut chara up as she remembered everything from the genocide and pacifist runs.

Connor then smirked. “I wonder if there is a mount ebott in this world?” Chara shivered in equal parts revulsion, excitement and fear, all at once, due to that possibility.

Coughing once more, Twilight motioned to the pegasus that ferried Chara to Ponyville, said pegasus now unhooked from the carriage, “Well, you should get going or you'll be late.” Twilight stated.

“Okay…” Chara replied absentmindedly completely occupied with thoughts of Mount ebott existing as she walked off with the counsellors.

The pegasus had lead Chara to a caravan at the edge of Sweet Apple Acres, several fillies and buffalo crowded around a gruff looking and aged royal guard. Hooked to the various carriages were a pair of buffalo and earth ponies. At the helm was a pegasus who looked an awful lot like Fluttershy.

Of course the most telling piece of information here was that everyone was female.

“This is where I leave you, Miss Dreemurr,” Chara's guide said, “The caravan will take a one day trip through Whitetail where you'll spend five days in a secluded wide range clearing. If anything attacks, several runes will go off and your Ponyville liaison will rush a battalion to your location. I advise you to NOT cause an incident which would activate these runes, I hope you enjoy yourself.”

“Yeah yeah don't cause a ruscus that Mom will have to clean up.” Chara said heading for the cavern not at all concerned about any danger.

The gruff, nigh amazonian guard took note of Chara and began to usher her onto the caravan. As Chara made for a seat, she was pushed in rather quickly by one Diamond Tiara.

“Hmph,” The filly scoffed, “I'd rather it be the princess freak then some flea ridden beast.” Diamond stated as she looked back to Silver Spoon sitting next to a buffalo, Silver mouthing the words ‘help me’ whilst the buffalo next to her rolled her eyes.

“Well I'm only here because I'm being forced to ‘make friends’ my own age…” Chara said huffing before commenting. “Also not a freak, I'm human.” Chara would have acted differently if she wasn't trying to control herself so not to cause an incident.

For the briefest of moments, a small smile appeared and vanished on Diamond's mouth as she eyed Chara with the same single eye glare she did when they first met, “Whatever, ‘princess freak’, just try to keep to the status quo and I'm sure you'll do just fine.”

“Oh and what would be the status quo?” Chara asked already figuring it had to do with diamond on top and everyone else on bottom.

“I'm sure a simpleton like yourself can figure it out,” Diamond replied as she turned away. “So just stay out of my way and we'll be golden.”

“You do realize I'm the adopted daughter of Celestia?” Chara said with a deadpan not liking how Diamond was treating her.

“Pfft, why do you think I came to sit with you in the first place?” Diamond scoffed.

“Well at least you have high standards.” Chara said as she nodded her head before finishing with. “You know I wouldn't be here if Mom didn't force me to go, mostly because I hate the outdoors.” and before diamond could respond they finally reach their destination.

The caravan wagon broke into a small cacophony as a soft spoken pegasus began ushering the fillies out. “All right, I know its more than a little crowded, but lets all keep calm and we can all get a chance to freshen up.” Chara listened to who she thought was Fluttershy as she was one of her favorite ponies but continued to give off the vibe of not giving a shit.

The children were all lead to a rather large building that seemed more like an outpost than anything. The guard and the pegasus kept to the back of the line, ensuring that no child strayed away.

“Now, we'll only be here until nightfall in which we'll be leaving for the main camp once we're all stocked,” The meek amber coated pegasus called out. “In the meantime, the attendants here will lead you to the baths and mess hall, as well as sell any of you a few loose odds or ends so long as you have your own bits on hand.”

Diamond took the time to bump into Chara for a second, “My family has a deal going with this outpost, I'm allowed anything I want, even the goods not available to the other miscreants.” She said with a smug smile.

“And I just have to mention my mom to get free stuff for me.” Chara said with an identical smug smile trying to one-up Diamond.

“Hmph, mothers…” Tiara whispered almost inaudibly, “Take care, loser~” The precocious fillie said as she sauntered away, the faintest of smiles on her face.

“I'm going to have to get the guards to look into her mother…” Chara said as she glared down at the ground memories of both her mother from before displacement and Chara mother mixing in her mind.

“Oh, hello there,” The pegasus in charge of the children said as she neared Chara, “You shouldn't be standing about, the baths will get cold.” She said sweetly.

Taking a closer look, Chara noticed the mare wasn't Fluttershy, as this mare not only wore glasses, but had a pearl necklace, a darker and rounded mane, and shining dark cherry eyes.

“You don't have to worry too much about that…” Chara said and for emphasis sticking her hand and mud before covering it with the black soul trait and showing a completely clean hand and when she was done as she went back to her brooding and planning.

Confused, but smiling, the mare put a wing on Chara's shoulder, “It's fine dear, we all have problems we want to hide, oh! Pardon my manners, I'm-” As the pegasus introduced herself, some of the other kids started singing a generic camp song, effectively drowning out her name, “But you can call me Mrs. Shy.” The pegasus stated softly.

“Wait... are you Fluttershy's mom? As in the wielder of the element of kindness Fluttershy?” Chara asked hoping to confirm her suspicions.

“You know my little Flutter?” Mrs. Shy asked.

“ not personally… but from what I have seen she seems to be my favorite of the Mane 6.” Chara said hoping to divert the question of how she knew about Fluttershy.

“Oh yes, she was always a little bolder than my husband and myself,” Mrs. Shy said with a proud smile, “Finding out she became a national hero didn't come as much of a surprise, I always knew she'd do something amazing in her life.”

“ you know I wouldn't be surprised if she was able to reform the spirit of Chaos himself…” Chara said giving a little hint for the future.

“Oh! Oh I don't know what I'd do if she had to deal with something so extreme…” Mrs. Shy said, obviously worried about her daughter, “Now, how about a warm bath and a hot meal, I'm sure the cooks have something special for you.”

“Probably…” Chara said letting her lead the way, As soon as they entered Chara almost froze up before putting on the cool facade that she always used when out in public.

“Oh, I'm sorry, I don't believe we have any clothing for you.” Mrs. Shy said apologetically as she walked through the staring crowd and over to an unoccupied tub.

“Oh don't worry about it I have all of my clothes stored in my inventory… or better known as my pocket dimension.” Chara said it trying to show off and hide the fact that she was uncomfortable.

Not quite understanding, Mrs. Shy pulled the curtain around the unoccupied tub as she took out several bath products, “Would you like some help?” The pegasus asked. Chara blushed brightly at the question her eyes going wide.

“W-wait, is that actually a thing here?” Chara asked before she remembered all the times that Celestia had asked the same question and looked a little sad everytime Chara said no making Chara feel guilty.

“I- well… Yes, if you aren't comfortable…” Mrs. Shy had thusly taken out a clipboard, “Oh… I knew there was something in your file I missed…”

“it's okay don't be upset!” Chara said as she tried to calm down the poor shy mare.

Stopping, Mrs. Shy put down her clipboard and looked at Chara, “I'm sorry, I can be a little flighty…”

“It's okay…” Chara said fidgeting.

Smiling, the mare held up a bottle of shampoo and conditioner, “So… may I?”

Chara didn't know what to do, she didn't want to say yes but she didn't want to say no either. Taking the hint, Mrs. Shy simply placed the bottles near Chara and bowed out, smiling softly as she did so. 20 minutes later Chara was switching through her wardrobe after finishing her bath… before finally picking her wardrobe for the day.

“Are you almost done? The mess hall is closing soon.” Mrs. Shy called out.

“Yeah I'm done.” Chara said exiting in her standard yellow and green sweater and brown shorts along with her sandals.

Smiling, the shy mare lead the way through a nigh empty bathhouse into an equally empty dining hall. The tables were all wood, and only workers and staff dotted the empty tables.

One such worker had walked by, dropping a metal tray filled with several meats and a few veggies before Chara, “Master Asriel had this prepared, enjoy.” The earth stallion walked away with nary another word, but coupled with the tray was a note and Chara picked up the note before starting to read it.

“Hiya! Um… I'm really bad at these but here goes! I hope you haven't caused any trouble, but knowing you I'm pretty sure you have someone wrapped around your finger.” Several dots followed in a haphazard manner before the note continued, “So uh… I had a little help with your meal, and by that well… you probably already know who made it. It's not poisoned! Don't worry, we checked. So uh… Yeah! Hope you have fun and I can't wait to s-” The next part of the sentence had several lines crossing out the text, “Come back safe! Make a lot of friends and uh… yeah…” The words “I miss you” could be seen crossed out, though not as roughly or with as much intent. The note was simply signed, Asriel.

Chara then turned her eyes to the food on the plate, three thick slices of some mystery animal cooked well, a ball of mashed potatoes topped with a butter pat, two bushels of broccoli, five stalks of asparagus, and a chocolate cookie as thick and wide as her fist.

Char immediately got rid of the broccoli and asparagus dismissing them out right before she dug into the mystery meat and potatoes and leaving her cookie for last.

“Oh… do you… not eat vegetables?” Mrs. Shy asked, her voice shaky and laced with fear.

“oh no I do I just don't like broccoli or asparagus…” Chara said sticking her tongue out with a grossed-out face.

“Ah… I see…” The mare thusly pulled began to scribble away at her clipboard, “Are there non animal products you do like?” She asked with just a bit less fear.

“I like corn, potatoes, cake and pretty much any sweets, I like strawberries and fruits.” Chara said off the top of her head.

Smiling, Mrs. Shy flagged down a wandering attendant and asked for a few strawberries. The attendant looked as if he almost had a heart attack, rushing along and back again with the ordered fruit.

A box of at least ten berries had been left and the attendant awkwardly backed away, a mad blush and goofy grin on his face. Chara immediately broke into a grin as she started nomming on the strawberries and tuning the rest of the world out.

Noon the next day, the caravan had been on its way for its next and final destination. This time, Diamond had opted to sit next to her longtime companion Silver Spoon. In her place was a rather fluffy buffalo girl and Chara was not happy with this.

It didn't help that the road had been bumpy for the last ten minutes and the mass of fluff would accidentally smother Chara in an attempt to right herself.

‘don't kill everyone, don't kill everyone, don't kill everyone’ Chara repeated in her mind as she was once again smothered by the mass of Buffalo fur.

“Sorry…” Chara's passenger muttered, her voice hefty and baritone, “My coat grows too fast and the heat makes it hard to manage.”

“I would be happy to shave that for you!” She said, pulling the glowing red knife from her inventory, small discs of Determination running along the blade.

“Would that hurt?” The buffalo asked, sweat visibly falling from her chin.

“Nah, I’m really good with a knife.” she said.

Before the buffalo could make a decision, the guard accompanying the carriage huffed and looked at Chara, raising an eyebrow for emphasis.

“What?” chara asked before continuing with. “I'm just helping her with her unruly hair. Like I said, I’m not going to cause any trouble!”

Grunting, the guard walked away as the buffalo let go of a breath. “M-maybe later…” The fuzzy buffalo girl relented. “We probably don't want a mess.”

“Yeah you're probably right…” Chara relented as she put her knife away.

Shuffling in her seat, the buffalo held out a hoof, “I'm Foghorn.”

“Greetings I'm Chara.”Chara said with a smirk holding out her hand grabbing her hoof and shaking it.

Foghorn slowly gained a bit of a smile as she let go, making herself as small as possible for Chara's comfort.

“Thanks…” Chara said as she pulled out a book she had gotten from the Royal library.

Besides the occasional howl, the remainder of the ride had gone by pleasantly. At midday, the caravan had finally arrived upon the campgrounds, the young ones clambering and hollering as Mrs. Shy began to address the crowd.

“Okay little ones, if we can all please remain seated?” She asked softly, her words gaining her no ground. It took the silent guard a single stomp to gain attention however, and soon, Mrs. Shy had begun a headcount. Chara had a twitch in her eye as she hated the outdoors.

Finally, the children had been lead out single file out into a lush and rather beautiful campground. The main hall was rather large and robust, the barracks were incredibly well made and seemed incredibly smooth for being made of wood. Several trails lead out into the woods, each path marked by an elegantly carved trail marker.

“I immediately hate all of this…” Chara said as she had to the barracks hoping that she could just sleep the entirety of this trip away. Unfortunately for her, the silent guard had given an audible huff behind Chara and motioned her to follow Mrs. Shy and the rest of the students.

Chara grumbled as she followed Mrs.Shy, Chara hated the outside she had always hated the outside as both Chara and Casey.

The group was lead to a small amphitheatre of sorts, the benches were all smoothed out and finely lacquered, the spacing between the half circle rows was narrow enough to seem intimate, but was wide enough to provide a great deal of comfort. Once everyone had been seated, Mrs. Shy had walked on stage and tapped on a microphone.

“Oh, well, this is a bit of an exciting turn out.” The older mare said rather gingerly. “Um… since I’m sure your parents all signed the waiver, you were probably already told about the hopes and purposes of this trip.”

From the front row, it was actually one of the buffalo to raise a hoof and answer, “To further strengthen the relations between our two cultures, forging a healthy and everlasting friendship with each other.” The rather small and thin buffalo answered.

“Thank you, Strong Heart.” Mrs. Shy said happily. “Yes, that is exactly it, and as our guest of honor and diplomat, Miss Heart will be doing her best to meet with and spend time with every…” She quickly turned to her notes, mumbling something incoherent until she looked back up. “One… here. Now, for a small presentation of the weeks events.”

“Oh God, why Mom.” Chara whispered under her breath knowing that this would be an international incident if she fucked up.

The rest of the presentation boiled down to the activities that would transpire through the course of the week. Finally, the children were lead to their barracks. Much like the wood of the amphitheater, the building, bed frames, and cabinets were all well made and finely polished to be smooth to the touch.

“Well time to switch to pajamas…” Chara said as she headed to the bathroom after 10 minutes chara came out in her nightie.

“Cute two piece~” A pony she'd never met before complemented.

“thanks I guess?” Chara said as she looks towards the pony in confusion. In fact, several of the mares had started eyeing Chara as if she were tantamount to a piece of meat, their giggling seeming to drown out all other noise.

“Chara!” Foghorn shouted from a ways down, waving frantically at the girl.

“Um... hay Foghorn.” Chara said, Walking over to the girl a little confused as to what was going on as she had never been eyed like this... at least to her memory.

“Get on the bed and don't make a sound.” Diamond Tiara whispered, apparently hiding behind Foghorn. “A lot of the mares here are political fillies, and you are a princess and a war hero, so watch your back out here…” She hissed before slinking away, much to Foghorn’s relief.

“Oh that makes sense…” Chara said a little downtrodden that not being able to make friends that weren't after her ‘title’.

“Um…” Fog rolled back and forth for a bit, “Diamond says you shouldn't cut my coat off yet, it'll make it easier for you to hide.” The buffalo said with a bit of defeat in her voice.

“That is true and I'm going to need a friend to hide behind if I'm going to not be devoured by the wolves in sheep's clothing…” Chara said as she moved on to the top bunk above foghorn.

“Chara~” Eighty-seven of the mares in the room cooed as they all turned to look at Chara, their tails swishing back and forth.

“Haha no.”Chara said as she climbed back down and hid in her bunk mates Floof to try and escape this attention.

Several ‘aw’s’, whines, and cat calls flooded the room, much to the humor of the buffalo in the room. Soon, Mrs. Shy had come in and called for lights out. Though, even in the darkness, it felt as though a thousand eyes were locked squarely on Chara.

It was times like these that Chara missed her room at the castle and her electronics from before displacement, Chara was half tempted to stay inside the fluff that was her new friend.

“Hey uh fog, you mind if I hide here for the night?” Chara asked as they had the bunk in the corner of the room and she was firmly between her new friend in the wall.

“Go ahead… they're kinda scary…” Fog whispered.

“Thanks fog.” Chara said snuggling up next to her, enjoying the fluff for the warmth that it provided.

The dawn had come, and with it, a mighty blow from an impressively large horn. Every sleeping soul shrieked at the sound of the brass wind instrument, laughter quickly following.

“Nothing like a good scare to get the blood pumping!” A rather rambunctious and youthful voice called out, “Up and at em ladies, there's an entire world just WAITING for you!” soon the brass instrument was turned into scrap metal as tons of Blue Soul strings wrapped around it before sliced through it like butter, everyone turns and sees Chara standing there, blue Soul strings whipping around like a tornado.

“Looks like we got a live one ladies!” The pegasus at the door frame cheered.

“I will end you!” Chara yells out not at all happy about the interruption of her sleep.

Still incredibly chipper and not quaking in her boots, the camp counselor started to walk out the door, “Save that energy for breakfast! We've got a whole days worth of bonding!”

“They will never find your body! Do you hear me!?” Chara yelled at again as she pulls a brush from her inventory and starts to make her her hair.

The ponies, rather shell shocked, gulped as they walked out behind the counselor, but took the time and found the bravery to wink at Chara.

Chara glared at the camp counselor as she finished her hair putting it in her signature hairstyle.

“Come on, it won't be so bad… right?” Foghorn asked the still angered Chara.

“Oh, is something wrong?” Strong Heart asked, not at all shaken by the blatant show of power.

“ if I didn't promise Mom that I wouldn't cause a scene…” Chara said as she headed to the bathroom to switch clothes.

“Ohhh… she's that Chara.” Strong whispered with a bit more understanding.

“She seems nice though…” Foghorn relented as Strong giggled.

“Good, I'm glad you two are getting along, and not just because she is the daughter of a ruler.” The skinny buffalo added. “You should hurry, a feast is waiting for us!” And with that, the girl was gone.

A few minutes later Chara walks out dressed in Camp shorts and a t-shirt before turning to Foghorn and saying “come on let's go.” as she heads out of the cabin.

The pair had no trouble finding the group, as every four seconds the sound of a whistle would go off, the group singing something about ‘the outdoors’ or ‘nature’.

“I'm going to torch this Forest see if I don't.” Chara Mutters under her breath already planning on learning Fire magic just for that reason.

“I don't think that would help in unifying our tribes.” Fog offered.

“I don't like being out in nature…” Chara offered to fog calming herself down a little.

Soon, the group was lead to a wide open dining area surrounded by vibrant and massive trees, the children were soon seated as Mrs. Shy had begun to list off the days events.

“Now children,” Mrs. Shy began, “I know you’re all excited to explore the forest,” The cacophony of several hoof stomps began to drown out all other noise, silenced only after the single royal guard gave a good stomp of her own. Realigning her glasses, Mrs. Shy continued, “Well… I can see you’re all excited, but the forest can be a dangerous place, and the unknown even more so, which is why we'll be heading back to the main area for our first activity. Arts and crafts!”

The resulting silence was deafening… After several seconds of blank stares, Strong Heart had hopped over to the podium, “I know this may come as a surprise to you all, but despite the current state of affairs within Appleoosa, our tribes still know very little of one another. It is my deepest hope that by initiating interpersonal activities together will sow seeds of trust and everlasting friendship.”

Several murmurs and head nods followed the impromptu speech before the crowd began to ‘Oh’ in complete understanding… which was followed by more excited hoofstomps. It was times like these that Chara so dearly with miss her phone because before displacement she did not like arts and crafts although her memories from the original Chara said that she liked drawing, so right now she was fighting in the internal Battle of whether to ignore everything and go into the forest or stay here and see if she could draw.

Soon, various foodstuffs was presented to the group, several apple pies being included along with the food. Of course, Chara’s meal was brought out seperate to all the others. Her server presented the meal on a silver platter consisting of a four stack of pancakes, three strips of bacon, half of a rather large sausage, a sizeable fruit bowl consisting of watermelon, honeydew, peach, and apple all diced. Another note was included with the meal:

“Hey Shortstack, the little guy wanted me to say something real quick. Talk to your server every so often if you feel like something specific for your food.”

The note thusly became a little less clean:

“Heya! So… how are ya? Good I hope!” Several dots in a cluster decorated the line, “Hey, maybe when you come back we can camp out on our own! Just us.” Several words following were furiously covered in ink, “Be safe, and I know it’s hard to be kind, but promise you’ll be sweet.”

With love,

Asriel

“Okay azzy I'll try my best…” Chara whispered as she carefully put the note in her inventory, chara then started eating as she kept her mind on the note asriel had sent her, ‘he actually believes In me…’Chara thought to herself.

“Personal cook, and a boy toy, my don’t we work fast.” Diamond teased, seemingly having read the note as well.

“He's not my boy toy!” Chara yelled out before thinking ‘but I wouldn't mind him being my boyfriend.’

“Ease up, princess,” Diamond chided, “You have all week to talk to us about him.”

“He's the best thing that ever happened to my life…” Chara whispered just barely enough for diamond to here.

Tiara’s smile actually faltered as she looked back to her small possy, sliding her forehoof along her neck as they backed off save for Silver Spoon, “Hey, you and Foggy should group up with us.” She offered.

“Foggy?” The buffalo asked with slight confusion.

“Don’t get used to it.” Diamond added as she and Silver walked away, the latter bowing rather graciously.

“Okay what's up with the bowing?” Chara asked, she didn't like the bowing and made her uncomfortable.

“Well, are you a princess?” Foghorn asked.

“I'm adopted.”Chara said flatly and she hopes to never have any real power over anything other than the military, because if she got hold of the military it would be the best damn military ever.

Foghorn nodded and immediately shoved her face into her food.

“I'm going to go practice my abilities…” Chara said as she started heading for the forest , chara had been intent on trying to combine her soul energies together to create new and extremely more creative attacks.

Of course, as Chara made her merry way, a small grunt echoed behind her, the royal guard having followed the child.

“I'm practicing don't try to stop me…” Chara said as she raised up her hands one hand coated in Orange sole energy forming into a ball and the other coated and yellow Soul energy as she tried to mix the two.

The guard rolled her eyes only to flinch and turn around rather quickly, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and Foghorn having followed along. Groaning and face hoofing, the guard took a step back and just stood watch.

“I would stand back if I was all of you just in case I blow my arms off…” Chara said casually as if she was talking about the weather as it looked like the energy in her hands was becoming more volatile.

Shrugging, the children took several steps back with Tiara and Spoon behind Fog. Though, the guard almost seemed to say something, a hoarse and ghostly voice echoing out: “I heard a rumor…”

“Who's there! Don't make me level this section of the forest!” Chara said as she pointed the attack to where she thought the voice was coming from,although the unstable and unfinished attack was already causing strain on her.

The guard rolled her eyes and kicked the ground before pointing to her mouth. “Hurts to talk…” The ghostly voice replied.

“That's it firing the attack!”try said mostly because she couldn't keep it contained anymore and fired it off into the forest caulking a explosion.

The trio of children shrieked and hit the ground, but the guard was incredibly unfazed.

“Well that wasn't quite right I'm going to have to work on that... Need to make sure I can do it one-handed.” Chara said grimaced at the pain her hands were in as her black soul trait already trying to undo the damage.

“Hey!” Silver Spoon shouted, “This isn’t the Everfree! You could have hurt the wildlife!”

“Not to mention she probably set off an alarm.” Diamond added.

Half a minute passed… and yet there was no sign of an alarm. The guard grunting while motioning for the group to head back.

“I'm trying to recreate an attack called the big bang attack, it's a very strong explosive attack.” Chara said bragging.

“Um… did you try using sound?” Fog asked, much to everyone else's incredibly confused looks.

“No that is a good idea…” Chara said as she try to remember how Vegeta created The big bang attack.

Surprisingly, Foghorn walked up next to Chara, slowly building air in her lungs until a sound akin to a… fog horn… left her mouth as any tree and bush ten feet before the buffalo were torn asunder from the hellish sound.

“You my friend will be a juggernaut in the future!” Chara says happily with a bright smile looking over at foghorn,she always appreciated juggernaut knowing that she was a glass Cannon.

“I remember how I'm supposed to make the big bang attack!I need to figure out how to invert the explosion then have it explode outwards afterwards!” Chara says excitedly as she starts melting the energies into a tiny ball trying to figure out how to do it.

“How did you get that from… THAT!?” Diamond shouted as she pointed at the desolation, “And why do you think you can keep throwing explosions into the forest without alerting the guard!?”

“Or without getting the attention of the other campers?” Silver questioned.

“one humans are chaos orientation we always crave more, we always try to make ourselves better, two the only three people that can actually stop me are in canterlot or in medical training And three why would I care what the campers think?” Chara says as if it was the most simplest thing in the world before blowing her fingers off with the itty bitty big bang,

“No! Stop!” Tiara shouted as she rushed to Chara and took her hand in her magic, “Stop hurting yourself like this! It can NOT be healthy.”

“I can regrow my limbs…” Chara said if she showed her fingers being regrown,although she was surprised diamond tiara actually showed concern for her as she didn't expect this at all.

Slightly taken aback and rather surprised, Tiara scoffed before tilting her head up, her nose in the air as she closed a single eyelid but still looking at Chara, “Just don't come running to me when the guard comes to cart you away for endangerment,” She said before turning to walk away.

Silver looked first to Diamond curiously before looking to Chara, bowing graciously as she walked away as well.

The guard thusly huffed, stomped the ground and motioned to the girls.

“Oh, I think we should go back…” Foghorn offered.

“Okay but I still need to train so I'm going to come out here every once in awhile.” Chara said offhandedly.

The guard lead the four of them out of the forest and back to the campgrounds, just in time as the children had all finished their meals and were being lead back to the main grounds. The tables had all been set up with thousands of different supplies and the children had all immediately formed groups… within their species.

“Well let's get a table and show the rest of these noobs what this camp is really supposed to be about.” Chara said with a sigh knowing now that it would be her that would have to start the intermixing of species.

Foghorn gave a happy nod and followed Chara closely, a few heads actually turning as the the four of them found an empty table.

“So… what are you exactly?” Silver Spoon asked Chara, “Because I’ve never even heard of any species that even remotely looks like you.”

“Oh I'm a human and I don't come from this timeline or reality.” Chara said as she took a bite of the strawberries in front of her before she continued. “I was also stuck in a Time loop with azzy before I found myself here…”

“Tell us a little more about boy toy~” Tiara teased as she started to fiddle with a paper bag and several fuzzy wires.

“... Why are you trying to record me…” Chara deadpanned as she looked at the wires and then at diamond tiara.

“Uhh… what?” She replied, her face contorted with confusion.

“I’m with her,” Foghorn added, “What?”

“What's up with the wires.” Chara said her voice still a deadpan as she took a bite of another strawberry.

“You mean the brightly colored, fuzz covered, craft wire?” Silver asked, picking up one of the wires while showing that it was cut at both ends.

“Oh sorry, where I'm from we have devices that can record people easily, I mistaken them for something else.” Chara said with a sheepish grin.

“I mean if I had some mana stone I could probably make something like that…” Silver Spoon mused, tapping her chin as she stared off into space.

“So… you're an alien?” Fog asked Chara, now fiddling with a bottle of silicon and a set of googly eyes.

“I'm a dimensionally misplaced being or a displaced for short.” Chara said as she got some crafting materials and started to make a red heart.

“Assume we don't know what that is.” Tiara stated, her paper bag looking more like a nightmare inducing sock puppet shaped like her mother.

“It's someone taken from one Universe and slung to another.” Chara replied as her heart start to look like an 8-bit in shape.

“Soo… space alien?” Foghorn asked, her own craft forming into a cartoonish replica of her own face.

“No more like extra-dimensional being.” Chara said as she started making a white upside down heart.

Shrugging, the girls refocused on their crafts until a hoof slammed onto the table, “Hey!” A mare shouted, “Word on the street is we've got a war hero.” The mare was a dirt brown pegasus with a rather sleek black mane that curled over her left eye. Her cheeks were decorated with a few white freckles.

Chara inhales deeply before saying in a overly cheerful voice with a very forced smile. “And how can I help you?” Everyone could see that Chara smile was someone who was not happy with the person she's talking to.

“I wanna punch you in the schnozz.” The mare said with a wicked smile of her own as she leaned in.

“Yeah, can you not?” Tiara asked.

“There are less painful ways to commit suicide.” Chara stated as if it was a fact before turning back to her arts and crafts project having already finished the heart and starting to inscribe names on them.

The mystery mare threw her head back and gave an annoyed groan, “Come on!” She whined, “Just one fight!? You and me, right here, right now!” She exclaimed as she started to shadow box as she hovered in the air.

“I'm sure whatever problems you have can be fixed with the right medication and therapy but killing yourself won't solve anything.” Chara replied having inscribed asriel's name on the red heart and her name on the monster heart.

Practically on the verge of pulling her mane out, the mystery mare dropped onto the table with a bit of force, shaking it enough to bother the girls and their near finished products, “Okay! What about a hoof wrestle! Or whatever your species uses for hooves!”

“It's called arm wrestling where I'm from and okay.” Chara says that she puts the two hearts in her inventory and then placing her arm on the table elbow first in the standard arm wrestle position.

Practically squeeing, the mare plopped down in front of Chara and dropped her foreleg onto the table, “Name’s Sleet. It's a pleasure.” The mare stated, her smile back in full force.

“Greetings I am Chara.” Chara drawled out as she frowns at her. The two locked hand with hoof and Sleet immediately pushed her weight onto her limb… only for her hoof to stay exactly where it was.

Blinking in confusion, Sleet let out a series of grunts as she so desperately tried to make Chara’s arm budge. Soon, she took to rather unorthodox methods to get the limb to move, from punching her own hoof, to pushing off her seat with her hind hooves and her wings going off full blast.

“Yeah if you can't even move my arm I would have completely destroyed you by accident…” Chara says and if this was an anime she would have had a huge sweat drop on her head.

“What the heck are you made of, pure metal!?” Sleet shouted.

“I'm made of DETERMINATION.” Chara says cheekily with a trollish grin as she slowly pushed her arm forwards.

“Nooo…” Sleet whispered, her eyes turning into saucers the closer her hoof got to the table, “No no no…” Sweat began to form and drop from the pegasus’ brow, “NOOO!!!” Her shout alerted everyone as every head turned to see just what was going on.

Eyes blank and jaw agape, Sleet hung her head to the side, unmoving and defeated.

“Don't mind it too much, if I was a normal human you would have won outright.” Chara says as she firmly beat her in a arm wrestle.

Quite a crowd had gathered around, several ponies looking at Chara and Sleet in a bit of awe.

“Umm… excuse me…” Mrs. Shy muttered as she made her way through the crowd, “Physical activities aren't until day three.” Everyone thusly looked at her with concerned looks.

The shy mare had begun to scramble about,her hooves flailing as she reviewed her itinerary, “Um… I suppose we can squeeze in a small expedition?” Murmurs of mild acceptance flooded the grounds, overshadowed quite abruptly by Sleet’s cacophonous laughter.

“You! You're alright, princess!” Sleet exclaimed with a beaming smile, “But you still owe me a tussle!”

“But she can cause explosions with her hands?” Foghorn pointed out.

“And we’re here to co-mingle with the buffalo.” Silver Spoon added. This thankfully got Sleet thinking.

“Well then it's settled! I’mma go hang with the buffalo!” Sleet said happily… only to pull at her hoof, still firmly under Chara’s hand, “Can you maybe…” She asked as she gestured to her limb. Chara immediately let up on her Hoof having forgotten all about holding her Hoof down.

Sleet took her time to walk away, the crowd parting as the pegasus kept her pace.

Clearing her throat, Mrs. Shy started to gather everyone’s attention, “Alright everyone, we’ll take a small lunch break followed by a small showcase of everyone's work.” this caused a pit of dread to form in Chara stomach At The Mention Of This.
