Dark, that’s all I see absolutely nothing, no color, no objects, no sound, no nothing just pitch black, I felt my mind race as I couldn’t move, it’s like I was in some sort of sleep paralysis, expect I can’t do anything at all but I know that I’m awake cause I can hear myself, until I heard something off the distance, it seemed like foot steps but different, it sounded more like if someone would be wearing rocks for shoes, at first I was glad someone was coming, until I heard a second pair of steps I felt like it wasn’t a good thing, I then could hear small whispers as if there were two living objects it seemed like I’m gaining my sense of hearing, well obviously but that’s not the point. What had happened next was unforgettable, I felt myself sweat now but still couldn’t see nor move as I was slowly gaining my senses back I then heard a door knob opening as I was now I’m extreme panic mode trying to find a way to wake up but couldn’t as I struggled to make myself move. Hearing the door open as I heard the footsteps coming closer to me then hearing a voice from one side and the other.
“Are you sure he’s not awake” I heard a very deep voice from the left as I then heard a higher pitched voice.
“N-no sir, he’s been “asleep” for quite sometime now” it said as the deep voice chuckled as I then heard the sound of a case opening hearing some clicks and screws being placed as I then heard the sound of a drill being automated, knowing what was happening as I was sweating more and more as the drill felt like it was getting closer and closer to me as I could feel it starting to dig into my skin screaming in pain as it dig deeper and deeper into me, I tried telling him to stop as he couldn’t listen to my pleading, I then felt myself being shaken as I was screaming, I could wake up as I screamed in my sleep I then heard a voice that sounded way to familiar, shielding myself from whatever was here with me as I scream stop to whoever it was as it then put, what felt like hooves on my face pleasing for me to awake.
“Jason, please wake up, please” it said sounding feminine as I immediately did as I opened my eyes, no longer screaming as I was completely full of sweat looking at two wide pink colored eyes, knowing who it was as I hugged her immediately, crying in her hooves as she calmed me down rubbing my back with her hoof as I was tear my up in her hoofs nuzzling her.
“It was….”
“I know, I know, it’s okay sweetie, momma is here”
Celestia said in a motherly tone as she kept rubbing my back with her hoof, I sniffle as I calm myself down sitting as I looked up at my mom, yes if you're wondering she is my mother, granted she’s not my biological mother, but I call her that sinces she took me in as her own, and I’m happy to call her mother and she’s happy to call me her son. I’ve always wanted to know if I even had a father, an uncle or something, but for now I’m happy to say that I’m home, as I smiled up at her I sighed happily.
“What would I do without you?” I said her as she smiled nuzzling her neck to me as she said in a motherly tone.
“Well, you’d be either criticized in time square of Canterlot, or you’d be in a orphanage not wanted by anypony” she said as she nuzzled, then sighing “Then again I would feel guilty about it too”
“Why would you tho, I mean, it’s not like I was sent here by some miracle or anything”
“Oh but you were” she said as she move her head to face me now close to my face as she smiled “When I first found in that basket that day, I knew that somewhere deep down you're a kind and generous soul” she said with a smile as I smile back looking outside as it was now morning as I yawned stretching as I looked at her with a tired smile.
“Well, it’s nice to know that one of my parents still care,” I said as I leaned on her as she wrapped both her wings and her hooves around me sighing, as I was deep in thought, I always wondered why I was sent here in the first place, I don’t really remember much of my childhood, as a kid I didn’t really have much opportunity as other pony children did, mostly because I was different from the others a lot different from the others. My mom always wanted the best life for me, but she knew that I couldn’t have that life she wanted me to have, due to what I am on the outside. Ponies had changed since then, now that older they treat me with a bit more respect now, mostly because I’m out of the castle to either have a morning, afternoon, or night walk or I would go to the local bakery to pick up a cake my mom had pre ordered the day before, there would be times where I would have casual conversation with some of the locals. Hell I even would have long conversation with some of the teenage ponies too, mostly mares but some stallions too, mostly for “tips” if you know what I’m saying. But I still would get criticism from the more upper class ponies, being called an abomination every now and then is something and I’m used to know, I don’t know why though because their sense of fashion is sticking rocks on their clothing and they look like something out of a diamond dog cave gone wrong, but I never had the balls to say that to their face given the fact that they can through me in the dungeon in a snap, yup just one of the many things life has given me. As I laid on my mom’s chest feeling the feathers on her wings as I smile, I just realize what time it is, remembering that I had to shower early in the morning as I sat up her wings extending out so I could sit up yawning a bit turning to my mom.
“Well, I guess I better go shower before all the guards get to the shower room first, I don’t want to reminisce about…...that time” I said as I got out of bed shivering at the thought about what had happened as she just giggled.
“Well, to be fair, they were in their heat cycle~” she said in a sultry stare as she laid on my bed biting her lip as her two back hooves were in the air spreaded out “In fact~ I think I might have one..”
“No no no no no I’m not listening!!” I said quickly leaving the scene as I walked out of my room hearing her giggle from my room as I sigh walking down the hall as I then walked down the stairs seeing the two maid ponies once they saw me both ponies greeted me with a smile, I smiled back waving at them as they waved back at me, they both spreaded from each other as I walked in between them, both of them getting a whack at my ass with their tale,I jumped in surprise turning at them as they looked at me giggling, I then squinted my eyes using two fingers to point at my eyes then I use them same two fingers to point at them, both of them giggling as I smiled walking down the stairs yawning a bit and stretched as I walked towards the shower rooms opening the door and walking in seeing the janitor pony as he was mopping the shower floor with every third swipe of his mop he’d dip it into his bucket of his water then go right back to mopping, he’d whistle while cleaning as I walked around the moped area so not to get him pissed this early in the morning, walking to the locker rooms and walking passed the many lockers in the room I made it to my own as I grabbed the lock, twisting the knob from left to right and left again as I then pulled the lock down unlocking it, opening the locker door wide open seeing all of my stuff in there. I wasn’t very comfortable with my stuff in my own room so I kept them in here for safe keeping as I took out a towel closing and locking the locker door again whistling
Walking down the many lockers once again as I made it to the shower heads going into one of the shower cubicles as I closed and locked the door continuing to whistle, this melody that I had been whistling, it stuck in my head for a while now, In fact I have a lot of different musical numbers in my head that I had been dotting down on a notebook and there’s time where I feel down, or you know when I feel like entertaining myself, I bust out a musical number. I closed my eyes, turning the left knob, turning it to the left as I felt the warm water hit my face grabbing my shampoo bottle, I flipped it upside down squirting a good amount in my palm as I scrubbed my head getting each and every part and crevasse of my head moving underneath the water as I scrubbed my head getting all the grime off my head and scalp. Going underneath the water as I felt the shampoo get off my hair, while my eyes were closed I grabbed my lufa from its rack, grabbing the soap as I scrubbed my entire body, scrubbing each and every crevasse of my body, once again going underneath the water to clean myself. Finally finishing showering I turned the left knob to the right as the water stopped as it would drip from the head smiling as I grabbed my towel wrapping it around my waist as I then opened the door as I walked out of the shower cubicle walking once again to my locker as I walked it again grabbing a pair of boxers and a muscle shirt, closing the locker door as I walked down the hall of lockers as I made it to the door walking in my black flip flops as I would get casual stares from some of the mares in the castle as I walked passed them, I always wondered why they would stare at me when I exit the shower? Sure I’ve been having weekly workout sessions on my own, and yes I’ve lost forty pounds ever since that whole “Hearts Warming Feast” my mom, and I had last year, and yes if you (the reader) is asking that I might look like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, only with a more lighter skin tone then yes that’s exactly how I look like. Anyway, back to what I was saying, as I walked upstairs I would pass by the maid mares as they’d gasp looking at my as I made a quick walk upstairs blushing hard, you may asking, “why are you embarrassed, I mean you have a great body and you have every mare on their hooves, so why would you feel embarrassed?”
See here’s the thing, yes I do have an amazing body, yes I do have almost every mare on their hooves, and maybe an occasional waterfall from them,(if you don’t know what that means, it pretty much means that he makes them wet), but I don’t mean to, the point is I get really shy when it comes to meaning new mares, also with mares that I’ve known through my lifetime. But enough about me, let’s continue the story, I walked by towards my room as I turned the knob pulling it open as I entered, immediately I saw a book on my bed with a note over it as I closed the door walking in as I opened my closet changing into some casual clothing, a pair of shorts and some boxers with a tank top once I sat on my bed I looked at the book seeing what it was as I read the note
“Dear Jason,
This book as been through our family since I was born, know that one day you’ll need it I’ve told Celestia to keep it in a safe place until the time came when you needed this book, if you're reading this it’s time for you to reach the next step, turn the book to page 115, section 935, paragraph 5 and read the incantation, it might sting a bit, but trust me thank me later ❤️”
I looked at the note as I read it to myself, wondering who wrote it, the note had a very distinctive print, ending with a heart, I thought to myself who ends their notes with a heart? Putting the note down as I picked up the book the title read “Book of the Gifted” as I looked at it I was a bit suspicious about it, the note read that it was supposed to be given to me that this age and this exact time, and it also said that my mom was supposed to give it to me so what can go wrong. I shrugged it off as I opened the book turning to the page going to the section and paragraph as I read the section to myself.
“The immortals, long ago there was a war against every species known to pony, ponies, griffons, dragons, changings etc. this war went on for a thousand years, but one day one brave immortal standing on two hooves, divided this world into sections, thus creating the universe we call Equestria, legend has it that there were any immortals in each faction, Falcon was the immortal god for the griffons, Drogos the immortal god for the dragon's, Crystalis the immortal goddess for the changelings, but it was said that there was four goddesses that ruled the ponies, one that raised the sun, one that raised the moon,one that created love for all and one that created friendship to everypony, but it was said that the one who made world peace with all the factions was executed by each immortal god, which brought back the war and crime among Equestria, it is said that one day another creature that stood on two hooves would bring peace amount Equestria once again”
“Wow” I said shocked about what I just read, but I never really thought about it, I always imagined that this universe was created to be how it is today, but I never thought that there was actually world peace at all, looking at it again I saw what looked to be something reason I’m fine print, but there was also something what looked to be a symbol of some sort, wait I feel like I’ve seen that symbol before, I raise my hand to see my ring, this ring was given to me by my aunt gave me when I was about three years old before she went missing, it hand a symbol that looked like a cycle spiraling itself but inside of the said cycle was a diamond pattern. Looking back at the page I saw what looked to be some instructions, it said once I start to read it I can stop until I finish, at this moment I was debating whether or not to put the book down and run to mom, but I felt like this was meant to happen this was meant to be given to me, so what can go wrong. I crossed my legs as I put the book on my lap looking at the fine printed words, taking a deep breath and I exhale it out as I then read
“By the power of two wings, two change and to breath fire, the power of the sun, the forces of the moon…”
At this moment I saw the outside getting dark as dark clouds were rolling in feeling my bed rubble and light that was coming from my ring. I was getting extremely scared at this moment as I was wanting to close the book, but knew that I couldn’t until the incantation was finished as I continued.
“The power of Love and six friends alike, I give this the power within me and to myself with in!”
One done the book immediately close as I looked up and before I could react I was struck by a lighting bolt to the chest, knocking me out the bed falling to the ground.
“Jason…..Jason wake up!.....Jason please wake up!” I faithfully heard a voice as it was hard for me what it sounded like as I groaned in pain putting my hands on my face as I couldn’t move my body, I felt like there was like thirty pound of something on me as it was hearing too much for me to handle as I could hear that same voice again.
“Jason, Jason please tell me you're okay” I heard that same voice I heard every time as I slowly open my eyes it was blurry at first but as I blinked I saw it was my mother seeing that she had tears in her eyes as I looked at her moving my hand to her cheek as I caresses her softly as she then nuzzled her cheek to my hand as she sighed “D-don’t scare me like that again” she said as she sniffed as I tried this up my mom helping me up as I leaned on my pillow my face hurting from my lips to my ears as I groaned.
“W-what happened?” I said as I looked at her she looked at me as she sighed looking over at her advisor as he picked up the same book I had as he looked at me
“What part of this book did you read?” He asked as he looked at me worried, I looked at him as I was panicking a bit.
“Why what’s wrong!?!?” I said as I was panicking my mom calming me down with her motherly voice.
“It’s okay sweetie just tell Burt what you read” she said as she caressed my back with her wing as I looked at her calming down a bit as I took a breath looking back at him as I said.
“All I read was the section “The Immortals”” i said as his eyes widen looking at me.
“D-did you say The Immortals?”
“Yeah The Immortals, why, what’s going on,is everything okay?”
I said as I looked at him as he smiled putting the book down coming up to me.
“Oh it’s more that okay my dear boy, more than okay” he said as he looked at Celestia smiling as she smiled back.
“Okay I’m getting a bit scared here what’s going on?” I asked again as I got up off the bed as I looked around my room seeing it was…..all nice, like nothing even happened as I looked over at my mom as I asked again “Mom was going o-“ I said as I raise my right my arm her seeing my whole arm as I saw that my ring was imprinted in my finger as my whole arm was tattooed with some more of marking not knowing what it was as I then looked up at a mirror seeing myself as I saw that my whole face had changed, my hair was longer than normal, with some section of my hair red and the back was yellow as I saw I was pierced in my face two on my lips that were snake bites on nose ring and my ears had a healex and two ear studs as I stared at myself my mom coming to me as she smiled.
“How do you feel?” She said as her advisor was standing next to her as I then looked at her confused.
“I have no clue”
