The Equestrian Warrior

(DREAM REALM)

I'm feeling really tired and groggy from that fight. I used a lot of my powers in that fight and I feel really exhausted from that fight. I still could' believe I did all of those moves, especially since those moves were from different shows I watched growing up as a kid. I sure hope my animal friends are okay I'm not awake and they have no one to protect them from the different creatures in the forest. Wait, there are still those ponies I saved they could bring them back to their homes and protect them. What will they do with me? They're probably scared of me and think I'm a monster, I mean I did things that they have never seen before and turned into things that don't exist on their world. I don't mind, I can survive on my own with my powers and I can hunt for my food. I can handle what this place can throw at me, I'll just be happy as long as my friends are safe. I started to come out of my slumber and open my eyes. I was looking at a white void, the same white void I saw in my last dream.

"How many times am I gonna come back to place?" I sighed as I was looking around.

"You did quite well my young warrior." A voice said that sounded familiar to me.

I looked behind me to see the one who talked to me. A light began to shine so I had to cover my eyes. The light was shining for about a few seconds, and when the light dissipated I uncovered my eyes. When I opened my eyes I saw my new friend Faust was standing in front of me smiling.

"You have done a very good job with protecting those ponies Tanner." She said congratulating me. I was surprised about her answer. How did she know what I was thinking. I didn't have that thought until a few seconds ago. Is it because of the mark she gave me and how we're connected with each other?

"Well I just did what I could at the time." I said while scratching my head. "By the way, do you know where I am and do you know if the everyone is okay?" I asked expecting a good answer.

"Well, you are currently in a bedroom lying while recuperating from the fight you were just in. And you do not have to worry about the others, they are safe and sound thanks to you." She said while smiling at me.

I sighed. "Good, I'm glad they were okay." I'm glad they're safe and I'm glad to sleep in a regular bed again, at least I hope I'm laying on a bed. I was pulled out of thought when Faust said something I didn't expect her to say.

"I heard what you said Tanner." She said

"What do you mean, what did I say?" I raised an eyebrow at her comment.

"I heard you saying you think those ponies might think you are a monster.
"Yes it is because of the mark I gave you that I can hear your thoughts." She said while I was busy thinking.

"Well stop I don't want you going around through my head and hear what I'm thinking." I said in an almost yelling tone.

"I'm sorry for that Tanner it's just that you seemed so sad and lost in thought. I just wanted to make sure you were okay." She said sounding in a worrying tone. I was looking at her face and I saw she was really worried about me. I sighed and looked at her.

"I'm sorry Faust, I didn't mean to yell you I just didn't expect you to be reading my mind."

"No, I'm the one who should be sorry I was reading your mind without your permission. I won't do it again I promise." She said back to me.

"Faust I don't mind you reading my mind as long as I call to you if I want to talk or you call if you want to talk to me. Is that okay with you?" I asked trying to make her not to feel bad.

"Yes that is okay." She said bringing back her a smile.

"Besides, I can just come back to the castle and you this mark you gave me so I can talk to you whenever I want to. I said while bringing my hand up and showing my mark.

She giggled. "Yes that is true, but Tanner I have to say you don't have to worry about the ponies thinking you are a monster. You saved their lives and you even healed them with the magic spell I gave you. You are a hero and not a monster, never forget that." She said with a reassuring smile.

"I hope you're right Faust." I said hoping that her words of wisdom are correct.

"Of course everything will be alright I promise." She said trying to reassuring me. "Besides there is nothing to worry about with you being a wizard."

"Huh, but I'm not a wizard." Raising an eyebrow to that.

"Tanner, don't you remember when I said I looked into your world." I nodded. "Well while watching your world I saw an interesting show called 'Fairy Tail' and I saw how you used the same spells from that show. Since you used those spells that officially makes you a wizard." She stated.

"Those characters had to work hard to become the wizards they are, and I got they powers because I got a few things from a merchant. I'm no wizard." I said rejecting her idea of me being a wizard.

"Tanner, those people are not great wizards just for the magic they use and the spells they cast. They are great wizards because they use their magic to fight for what they believe in. You fought for those ponies because you knew in your heart that it was thee right thing to do. You are worthy to be called a wizard and you know it too." She said.

I was starting to believe in what she said. "Do you really think so?" I asked the winged unicorn.

"I know so." She said with a warm smile.

"Well then I'm going to do just that and fight for what I believe in. I will become a great wizard who helps those who need me." I said making a proclamation to myself.

"I have no doubt in my mind that you will." She said while with a soft smile that turned into a mischievous smile. "So what do you think of them?" She said

"Who are you talking about?" I raised an eyebrow to her question.

"I mean the seven mares you saved in the forest, what do you think of them?" She said while getting a little closer to me. I knew what she was getting at and I was starting to blush. "W-Well I-I didn't really get a chance to talk to them but I do think all seven of them are really beautiful." I stuttered while trying to answer her question. My answer made her chuckle. "I'm glad to hear that." She said. Her question made me raise an eyebrow and think back to the talk we had last night.

"Wait, c-could these girls be my future w-wives?" I asked with wide eyes on my face.

She giggled. "Maybe you will have to find that out on your own." She said trying to avoid my question. I was about to say something else but the dream was starting to get black and starting to shake. "It appears that you are starting to wake up. I will be seeing you another time Tanner, and remember if you ever want to talk just think very hard." After she that my eyes were starting to feel heavy and the white void was starting to blacken around me.

(END OF DREAM)

I slowly opened my eyes from that restless sleep. I haven't felt that cozy in a long time. I lifted myself up and scratched my eyes to wake myself up. When I finished rubbing my eyes I looked where I was, and when I opened my eyes the scenery surprised me. I was in a room where the walls were made out of crystal. I looked over the whole room every inch of it was crystal. The furniture was made of wood like I thought it would but the rest of the room was made of crystal. When I was looking around I remembered that I didn't have my stuff on me. I looked around the room and saw my backpack, shield, bow and arrows in the corner of the room. I checked my waist and saw that the bag I hold all my spirit keys is still there. I opened the bag and saw all of my keys were there. I also saw that the ultimatrix was still on my wrist even though I knew it can't be taken off. I checked around my neck and saw all three of my necklaces around my neck.

I got up from the bed still feeling a little groggy from that fight, but I still had energy to stand up. When I got up from that bed I started to stretch my arms and legs to get my muscles moving. After I was done, I moved to grab all of my stuff from the corner. I checked my backpack, I saw that my 2 spell books, first aid kit, and chest full of talismans were in there. When I made sure everything was in order I packed up all of my things and made my way to the door.

I opened the door quietly so I wouldn't rouse any suspicion. I walked out of the room and slowly made my way through the hallway. While walking I got a look at the place and I have to say it is a home. It looks like a princess lives here with the crystalized walls and beautiful decorations that ties the room together. I was thinking back to the fight hoping that my animal friends are okay. I know those ponies I met in the forest would help them but I can't help but worry about them. I was pulled out of thought with a voice that came down the hall.

"What do you think we should do with him?" A voice said coming from two large doors down the hall from me. I walked to the doors and when I got to the door, I slowly peeked into the room to see who was talking. My eyes went wide at what I saw in this room. This room had crystal walls like the rest of this place but in the center was the sight to behold. The center had a crystalized table that was glowing with a bright light. At the top of the room was a tree trunk with colorful crystals hanging from the roots. The table had 7 thrones around it, 6 big ones and 1 small one. The thrones had the same ponies that I saved in the forest and a young lizard like creature sitting in the small throne. The light pink unicorn was standing between the pink pony and the cyan Pegasus. When I looked at them I saw the yellow Pegasus have my three animal friends in her lap, when I saw that they were safe I sighed with relief. It seems they were having a conversation about me and I didn't want to interrupt them, so I turned myself and my things invisible and walked into the room. I closed the door and climbed up the wall and attached myself to the ceiling while listening to the conversation.

"I mean what can we do about him, he saved our lives and healed our wounds." The light pink unicorn said.

"I have to agree with you there Starlight, that fella stuck his neck out for us against all of those Timber-Wolves." The orange pony said in a country tone.

"Yeah, I mean, did you see all of those moves? He went so fast even I couldn't keep up with him." The cyan Pegasus said excitingly.

"I have to say he was quite brave. He fought with grace and style against those wolves like a knight in shining armor." The white unicorn said with a voice that sounded like it came from royalty.

"Wait, didn't you go into the Everfree forest because you were told a disturbance that could be a threat to Equestria." I lizard boy said that made me feel sad. I wasn't sad that I couldn't be considered a threat, but I was said that I was the reason that these mares were in the forest because me.

"He's not a threat silly Spike. He saved us from those meanie timber-wolves and kept us safe from them. He's a hero." The cheerfully pink pony said with a bright smile on her face. Her comment made me smile thinking that maybe the others think I'm a hero too.

"Y-Yes he was very brave. He not only saved us but he also help these three animals against a timber wolf. I think we can trust him, if all of you can too." The timid yellow Pegasus said with three animals in her lap agreeing with her.

"What do you think Twilight, can we trust him?" The little lizard said as he looked to the left of him to the lavender winged unicorn.

"I don't know Spike. I want to trust him and get to know him, but that's the problem. If only we got a better chance to speak to him that way we could make a better decision." She said as she was thinking about what to do next. I looked at all of their faces and they had the same look on them. A part of me wanted to speak to them but I kept holding myself back from speaking up. I could feel in the back of my mind me wanting to talk to them building up. That build up was coming up to a point where I didn't hold back and talked to them.

"If you want to talk to me all you have to do is ask.." I said as I slapped my hand over my face. After I sad that they all came out of thought to look for where that voice came from.

"Where did that come from?" The cyan Pegasus asked looking around the room.

"Up here" I said guiding their vision towards me as I deactivated my invisibility. Their eyes were moving towards me and when they saw me they couldn't believe what they saw. What they saw was the same being that saved them in the forest sticking to the ceiling with his hands and feet on it. We kept looking at each other that made it feel like it was hours so I decided to get at eye level with them. I shot a strand of web on the ceiling and slowly descended to the floor of the room. Their eyes never stopped following my movements. I was now a few feet from the floor and when I was close enough I broke away from my web and landed on the floor. I sat on the floor waiting for one of them to speak but I was pulled out of thought when three objects landed on my lap.

"You're finally back, you're alright." Chepi said while rubbing up against my stomach.

"We were so worried about you." Kestrel said on my right leg.

"You're okay right? You're not gonna leave us right?" Alusia said while laying on my left leg.

Seeing their faces made my heart break so I did the best thing I could at the time. I wiped the tears out of their eyes. "Hey, I'm sorry for worrying you three but I'm okay now. I'm not going to leave you three, I'm gonna watch out and be there for you okay?" They stopped crying and nodded. I scratched their heads so they could relax. When they got off I pulled my attention back to the 7 mares and lizard boy that are looking at me. I still didn't know what to do so I did the only thing I could think of. I got up and slowly walked to the door thinking that maybe it is not the time to talk to them. Before I could reach for the door a voice called to me, stopping my action.

"WAIT!" A voice shouted from behind. I looked back and saw that it was the lavender winged unicorn was the one that called out to me. "Wait, we-we want speak to you. Can you stay so we could talk?" She asked me with pleading eyes. I looked at the other 6 mares with the same look in their eyes and the lizard boy looked at me with curiosity. I thought about it for a few seconds before I nodded to her request. They smiled at my action and I started to walk towards the lavender winged unicorn. She sat down in her chair and I stood between her and the orange pony. We were all starting to look at each other for a couple of minutes in silence, so I decided to break the silence.

I cleared my throat to gain their attention and began the conversation. "I know all have questions and I have some questions of my own, so I will ask a question and one of you will ask me question. Does that seem fair?" They nodded. "Okay, I'll ask a simple question, what are you names?" I asked.

"Oh yes we should get introductions out of the way. I am Princess Twilight Sparkle, the princess of friendship." The lavender winged unicorn said. When she said that I bowed to her. "It is an honor to meet you Princess Sparkle." I said showing her respect but she apparently didn't like it. "You don't have to call me that, I don't like the formalities of being a princess. You can just call me Twilight." She said as I got up. "Okay, I'm sorry if I made a mistake it's just my first time meeting royalty." I said to her. "It's alright I was like that too. And I want to say from all of us that are very grateful for what you did for us in the forest." She said as she was thanking me. "It was nothing I just did what I could at the time. Now lets continue with introductions." When I said that the orange pony beside me introduced herself.

"Howdy there sugarcube, ma name's Applejack. I'm the proud owner of SweetApple Acres. It's very nice tah meet yah." She said as she stuck her hand out for me to shake it. I took her hand to greet her back. "It's very nice to meet you too Applejack." When we were done shaking hands, the white unicorn began with her introduction.

"Hello darling, my name is Rarity, I am the owner of Carousal Boutique where I create elegant assortment of clothing. It is very nice meeting and I must say what you have on is quite dashing." She said while looking at my clothes. "It's very nice to meet you too and thank you I picked them out myself. "I said looking at my own clothes. "Well they certainly suit you and if you ever need a pair of clothes come by my Boutique and I will make you some." She said generously offering to make me clothes. "You don't have to, I don't want you to go through all the trouble." I told trying to not to be a bother but she didn't mind. "I insist darling, I love making clothes and I won't here another word about it." She said a firm tone sounding like she made her mind up so I just accepted her offer. "Well Rarity I'll take you up on your offer." She smiled and nodded to that. When we were done the cyan Pegasus flew up in the air and looked at me.

"The name's Rainbow Dash, I'm the fastest Pegasus in all of Equestria. I have to say what you did in the forest was awesome. I mean you fought those timber wolves like it was nothing and you used all those amazing powers." She said while flying around the room talking about my heroics. I raised my hand and scratched the back of my head thinking she is seeing me in a new light. "It's nice to meet you Rainbow Dash and it wasn't really nothing I just used my powers to protect all of you." They smiled when I said that. "Well I think you were awesome, I think you were about 20% cool out there not as cool as me." She said while flying right back to her chair. I started to notice that the six chairs had weird markings on them. I was pulled out of thought when the light pink unicorn spoke up.

"Hello, my name is Starlight Glimmer. It's nice to meet you." The light pink unicorn said while brining up a kind smile on her face. "It's nice to meet you too, Starlight." I said while waving at her. She had a look on her face like she wanted to know something and she asked. "I know we still have to introduce ourselves but I just want to know did you use magic to heal us?" When she said that all of their eyes were now on me. I nodded my head to answer her question. "So, does that mean you can use magic?" She asked me. "Yes I can use magic, in fact I guess you could consider me a wizard." I said and when I finished my sentence Twilight spoke up in an excited tone.

"You're a wizard like Starswirl the Bearded!?" She exclaimed as I was clutching my ear after hearing her. "Yes I am a wizard, but who is Starswirl the Bearded?" I ask after my ear started to feel better from question. "Starswirl is one of the most brilliant unicorns in Equestria. He is one of the pillars that protect Equestria from those who choose to threaten others." She said while using her magic to make to figures appear in front of me. There was an orange Pegasus knight with a glowing shield, a Pegasus dressed up like an Egyptian with a glowing blindfold, a buff light blue pony with a bear and glowing shovel, a pony with light blue skin with her hair tied up in a bun and a glowing mask over her face, an old unicorn dressed in a kimono with a glowing flower, and another unicorn with a long beard and dressed up like a wizard with a glowing book in his hands. The last one must be Starswirl while the rest must be the others pillars.

"Where are they now?" I asked while still looking at the figures that were starting to fade away. "They are traveling around Equestria because they were in another dimension for years so they are seeing how this land has changed." Twilight said after she deactivated her magic. "How did they get out of that dimension if they were stuck in it for centuries?" They all smiled and looked at each other then Twilight spoke up to answer my question. "We did." She said as she gestured to herself and her six pony friends. I was surprised they could do something like that but I was quite impressed. "Wow, all you saved this world's greatest heroes? I have to say I find that quite impressive." When I said that all seven of them smiled and blushed at my comment and looked away from me. Their reaction was weird but I pushed that away for another time. After about a few minutes we continued with introductions and before anyone of them could speak, the pink pony appeared right in front of me.

"HimynameisPinkiePie,thesuperduperpartyponyofEquestria.It'sgreattomeetyouandthankyouforsavingusfromthosemeantimber-wolves.Iplanparties.Doyoulikeparties?Ibakecupcakesandcake.Doyoulikecupcakesandcake?Whatisyourfavoriteflavor?Doyouhowyourdayisgoing?Whensyourbirthday?Doyouwanttobefriends?Iwanttobeyourfriend.Pleasebemyfriendplease,please,please" She was asking me a bombardment of questions until she was interrupted by a light pink aura surrounding her body lifting her back to her seat.

"I'm sorry Pinkie can get a little excited at times when she meets somepony new." Twilight said using her magic to lift Pinkie back to her crystal throne with the three balloons on it. "You don't have to worry about it." I said then I looked towards the pink mare. "It's great meeting you too Pinkie and your welcome. I do like parties, I do like cupcakes and cake, my favorite flavor is vanilla, my day is going well considering I got to meet 7 beautiful mares, my birthday is February 24th, and I would love to be you friend." I said as I answered all of her questions. When I looked around the room all of them were looking at me with surprised expressions on their faces including Pinkie. All 7 of the mares had blushes on their face, probably because I called them beautiful but I meant it. Everything was quiet until a gasp came from the pink pony. "It's your birthday today?" Pinkie asked me with what looked like a shocked face. I nodded and the next thing I know Pinkie was gone with puffs left in her seat.

"How did she do that?" I asked looking astounded by the rate of her speed. "That's just Pinkie being Pinkie, but what I want to know is how did you understand what Pinkie was saying?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well, I have a very hyper-active sister back home, she sometimes talked fast and over the years I understood her fast talking." I explained to them as I was remembering my sister. I know she is in good hands with our grandparents, but I can't help worrying about her. I shake off that thought and look to the last pony in this room.

I looked at the yellow Pegasus and when I looked her she hid her face behind her long pink mane. I could see a light pink blush on her face and I tried looking at her but she kept looking somewhere else. She seemed like the shy type, I was about to say something but she beat me to it. "H-Hi m-my n-name is F-Fluttershy." The shy Pegasus in a quiet tone but I could hear her thanks to my sonic hearing. "It's very nice meeting you Fluttershy." I said giving her a gentle smile which she accepted. "C-Can I ask you something, if y-you don't mind that is?" She said hesitantly. "It's okay Fluttershy, you can ask your question." I said. "Is it true you saved those three animals from a timber wolf last night?" She asked me. I looked down at the animals, smiled and nodded my head to answer her question. "H-How did you do it?" She asked curiously. I pointed to the bow and arrows on my back answering her question. "I shot it with one of my trick arrows and it was down after a few seconds." I said.

"What are trick arrows?" Applejack asked.

"Trick arrows are like normal arrows except instead of piercing an object like a normal arrow my trick arrows have special functions that will assist me in any situation." I explained my arrows to them and they were amazed by them. "Can you show us one of these arrows?" Rainbow Dash said. I was going to show them later but I guess now might be a good time. I grabbed an arrow from my quiver and thought what arrow I wanted. I took off my bow and readied the arrow and aimed it at Rainbow Dash. Before anyone could say anything I fired the arrow at great speed. When the arrow made contact it burst open and encased her in a foam coating. I shot one of my putty arrows at her.

"That was one of my arrows, its called the putty arrow. When it makes contact on the intended target it encases them in a foam coating where they can't escape." While I was saying that Rainbow Dash landed behind her chair attempting to free herself to no avail. "Okay, you're arrows are cool but why did you shoot one at me?" She asked. "I learn best by showing and you were the one who asked me to show my arrows." I said as I was slowly walking towards her.

"Yeah I get it, now get me out of this thing would ya? She asked as I got close to her. When I was a few feet from her, I got down on a knee and placed my hand on the putty. I started to encase the putty in ice to freeze it while avoiding her head. When the putty was encased in my ice I shattered the putty having frozen fragments on the floor that I melted away. Rainbow was shivering a little but I used my fire to warm her up, after a few minutes she was warmed up. I apologized to her for my sudden action and she accepted it on the condition I don't do it again. When that was all done I walked back to where I was and looked to towards the last one in the room.

"Allow me to introduce my number one assistant, Spike the Dragon." Twilight said guiding my attention to the purple dragon in the chair next to her. I looked at him and saw he was a young dragon that looked like he was 12 years old. He had purple scales all over his body and green spikes that go down his back. He has forest green eyes with slits in the center of them and sharp claws on his hands instead of fingers. He is a real dragon standing in front of me.

"Hi Spike, it's nice to meet you." I said while waving at him.

"Yeah it's nice meeting you too." He said waving back.

"Well since all of you have introduced yourselves I will introduce myself. My name is Tanner Martin but you can call me Tanner. If you didn't know this, I am a human." I said giving them my name and species. "These little ones beside me are Chepi, Alusia, and Kestrel." I said moving their attention to my animal friends. "Now, who has a question for me? I asked and the one who made the first question was Twilight.

"I have a question, how did you get here?" She asked me with the same question that I had when I got here.

"I'm not very sure. One minute I was buying a couple of things from a merchant at a booth and the next thing I know is that I have powers that are suppose to be fictional." I said while rubbing my head thinking back to yesterday. "What do you mean by that?" Twilight was confused by my response. "I mean that every one of my powers is from stories I've seen growing up as a kid. I suspect that merchant was magical and those items he gave me were magical too." I said. She seemed to agree with that response and moved on to something else.

"Okay my next question is where am I?" I asked while looking around the room. Rarity was the one that answered that question.

"Why you're in Equestria darling, and right now you're in the town of Ponyville." She said in her elegant voice. I nodded showing that I understood her answer. The next to ask me a question was Applejack.

"Hey Tanner, I wanna know, what is that stuff?" She said pointing at something behind me. I looked and saw she was pointing at the web I used to descend from the ceiling. "That's the web fluid I make." I said while walking to the string of web. "How do you make it?" She asked me. "I can make it the same way a spider can, from my body. It should dissolve in a couple of hours but I'll take care of it myself." When I was under the strand of web I stretched my arm and reached the top of the ceiling. I pulled the strand from the ceiling and retracted my arm returning it to normal. When the strand was right in front of me I burned the webbing away with my fire. I looked to all them and they were in awe in what I just did. It was a few minutes of explaining my stretching power along with the other powers of the Fantastic Four which they were amazed by it. Rainbow Dash kept asking me to race because all of these powers I have and I told her I will think about it.

"My next question is how long have I been asleep?" I asked while looking out the window looking to see the sun is sill in the sky. Starlight was the one that pulled me out of thought.

"You've only been asleep for about 4 hours now. It should be almost 5:00 right now. You were very exhausted from that fight with the Timber-Wolves that we had to bring you here to rest. Rainbow Dash and Applejack carried you all the way here." That surprised me. "They did?" She nodded and I looked to Rainbow and Applejack. "Well, thank you both for doing that."

"It was nothing sugarcube." Applejack said

"Yeah, we owed you since you saved us." Rainbow Dash said.

"I would like to ask you something, darling." Rarity asked me and I nodded. She pointed to my ultimatrix. "What is that device on your wrist? I looked where she was pointing and showed everyone of them my watch. "This is called the ulimatrix, it allows me to turn into different species and utilize their powers as my own." I said as I explained my device to the rest of them. "I also want to know the yellow beam was that went over Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow, and Starlight." Rarity asking me. "That was the scanning mode, when the ultimatrix finds DNA that it has not acquired then it scans it and the new scan is stored inside it." I said. "Can you show us? She asked wanting to know my about my device. I nodded and walked to the side of Spike and raised the ultimatrix in front of him.

'Uncatalogued DNA detected.' The ultimatrix chirped yellow and shot beam across Spike's body and scanned him. 'Uncatalogued DNA acquired.' When it said that the icon turned from yellow back to green.

"Now I have dragon DNA along with timber wolf DNA and the DNA of the four of you." I said while looking at the four of the ponies I acquired this new DNA from. "Could you turn into the form that you got from me, just so I could get to see it for myself." Twilight requested of me to transform and I complied with that. I was going through the ultimatrix finding the form that I got from Twilight. While looking I saw the forms from Ben 10 Ultimate Alien and Omniverse. I finally found what I was looking for and pushed down on the dial to transform. There was a flash of green light and when it disappeared I came out in one of my new forms. I was a tall stallion with a black coat and long green main and tail. I had black and green armor that covered my arms, shoulders, and legs. And I had a black horn on my head and a black wings on my back. The omnitrix symbol was on my chest.

"Wow, you look awesome as an alicorn." Rainbow said while flying over to me inspecting me.

"Alicorn, is that what you are?" I asked looking to my lavender friend.

She nodded. "Yes, you are an alicorn. An alicorn is a type of pony that has the strength of an earth pony, magic of a unicorn, and the flight of a Pegasus." She said as she explained her species.

"I have to say that you are quite the handsome stallion. I have never seen a stallion with such a glorious black coat and that main and tail are simply marvelous. That attire you have on is simply glorious, I love the armor and suit under it is also splendid." Rarity said looking my new form over.

"Tanner, besides the forms you got from us do you have any more forms in that device." Starlight asked and I stepped back from the girls. I hit the omnitrix symbol on my chest to change into one of my other transformations. When my body changed again I turned into a different species that surprised all of them. I changed into a small money with blue and black fur. It has four black eyes with green irises surrounding them and four hands with three fingers on them.

"SPIDERMONKEY!" I shouted as I did a backflip and laughed like a monkey.

"What are you?" Spike said as he got up walked towards me.

"This is Spidermonkey, his species is called an arachnochimp. They are a group of monkeys with spider like powers like shooting webs and climbing. I'm a good fighter with these four hands. There is also something special I can do when I'm in this form." I said while thinking of what is special about this device.

"What is it?" Twilight inquired.

"The ultimatrix allows me to evolve some of my transformations into their ultimate forms, making me more stronger than the previous forms." I said explaining the function of my device.

"Could you show us this form?" Spike asked. "Of course, as I always like to say, there's time to go hero and there's a time to go ultimate." I said that and when I finished four spikes came out of the omnitrix icon my body started to change into my ultimate form. My form changed into a muscular gorilla with six green eyes. He had 2 arms instead of four and had four spider appendages coming from his back.

"ULTIMATE SPIDERMONKEY!" I shouted while beating my hands on my stomach and finished with a roar.

They were in in awe by my new transformation, some of them were just staring at me while others looked me over by touching my fur or touching my spider legs. "This form is stronger than Spidermonkey with increased strength and speed, and I can shot stronger strands of webs from my mouth." I said while explaining my new form. When I was done I hit my omnitrix symbol to turn back into myself. "Tanner, who created this device?" Twilight asked with a quill and paper in her hand. "This device was created by a Galvin by the name of Azmuth. He is the leader of a race that have very high intelligence and is the smartest being in five galaxies. Azmuth created this device so that other species could understand one another to coexist in piece." I said explaining the origin of this device.

When I explained that they were pretty impressed that one being could create something as incredible as that. I was feeling a little tired of carrying this objects and wanted to let them down. When I thought that I remembered my requip spell and how I can bring weapons into a pocket dimension. I focused my magic power on my the weapons I had on me and after a few seconds my shield, bow and arrows disappeared in a yellow flash. This got the attention of the others.

"Tanner, where did you weapons go?" Fluttershy asked in her quiet tone.

"I just used one of my magic spells. It's called Requip, this type of magic allows my to any type of weapon or armor to a pocket dimension and summon them back if the situation calls for it." I said as explained one of my spells to them.

"Wow, you're like a walking armory, can you show us one of your pieces of armor?" Rainbow Dash asked excitingly. " Sure I will, but I need all of you to stand back." After I said that they took steps back and I gathered the magic inside me. "REQUIP!" I shouted as my body was engulfed in a golden light. When the light dissipated, I stood in a silver plated armor with two swords in my hands and four light grey wings on my back.

"HEAVEN'S WHEEL ARMOR!" I shouted while standing in my new armor.

"That armor is amazing with a great amount of beauty and style even in the heat of battle. And you have more armors like that?" Rarity asked.

"Yes, I have plenty of weapons and armor at my disposal thanks to this spell." I said while changing back to my old clothes.

"How did you learn all of these spells?" Starlight inquired.

"I learned them from my spell books." I said answering her question.

"Can I see these spell books?" I nodded and used my magic to pull my two spell books. I handed one to Twilight and the other to Starlight.

"I can't read any of these pages." Twilight said while flipping through pages.

"Watch yah mean Twilight?" Applejack asked.

"I mean these pages are completely blank."

"Yeah, every page of this book doesn't have any words." Starlight said as she looked from the pages to me. "How can you have learned spells from these books if their blank?"

"Well, these books have a spell on them where only I can read them. The reason is that some of the magic in these is dangerous and someone could hurt themselves or others." I explained.

"That is a good reason. Some magic is very dangerous, so it is a good idea to have projection if somepony got their hands on it." Twilight said understanding my reasoning. "Could you show some more of your magic? I thought about it and thought of some magic that would impress them.

"Okay, the next magic I will be showing you will be a big one so I want you all to stand back." They did as I instructed and took a couple of steps back. When they were far enough I out two out two objects from my pocket. I silver key with a strange blue object at the top.

And a golden key with the bottom half in the shape of a harp and the top half with a happy and sad face with the center having the roman numeral number for 2.

"OPEN GATE OF THE LITTLE DOG AND GATE OF THE TWINS!" I shouted as the two keys started to glow.

"NIKOLA!" A creature came out of nowhere after the glow subsided. A creature that was small with white fur. It has two black eyes and a yellow horn-like nose on its face.

"GEMINI!" Two creatures appeared after the glow. Both creatures have blue bodes and black eyes with white irises in them. One of them had a happy face with orange pants and the other has a sad face on it with black pants.

"Hey Plue, Gemini, good to see you." I said to my celestial spirits. Plue waved at me in a greeting manner. Gemini flew around the room for a few seconds and then landed on my shoulders.

"Piri Piri Tanner, it's so good to see you. It's been so long since we've seen each other." Gemi said.

"Yeah, we've missed you so much in the spirit world." Mini said.

I chuckled at them and raised a finger and scratched their heads. I said, "I missed you too but it has only been a couple of hours since I last summoned you."

"Yeah, but the time in the spirit world works differently than this world. No matter how long any of us are away, we'll always miss you because you're our friend." Mini said.

That was a surprising thing she said. I do care about the spirits like any celestial wizard should, but I never thought they cared about me that much. It made me happy to hear that from them hoping that the rest of the spirits see me in that way.

Rainbow asked, "What are these things?"

I said, "These are my celestial spirits. They are spirits that I have contracts with. Whenever I am in need of them I grab their key and summon them. I would like to introduce some of my spirits. This is Plue." I motioned to the Nikola that is playing with my animal friends. "And these are spirits of the twins constellation. Gemini." I guided their vision to the two beings on my shoulders.

Starlight asked, "Why do you call him Plue when you said Nikola?"

I said, "Nikola is just his species and I just thought Plue was a good name."

Twilight asked, "What can these spirits do?"

I said, "Well, Plue really can't do much but is nice company to have around." Plue enjoyed my comment of him. "Gemini can transform into anyone and copy their abilities. Gemini why don't you demonstrate your abilities." They nodded and flew up in the air. There was a flash of light surrounding them and when the light dissipated, a copy of me landed right beside me.

Applejack asked, "How did they do that?"

I said, "That's their transformation magic. They can turn into anyone they come in contact with and copy their abilities." I whispered for Gemini to do a couple of my abilities and they nodded. "Now they are going to demonstrate more of my abilities." I nodded at Gemini and he started to change his body. He changed into a yellow mouse with red cheeks and a lightning bolt shaped tail.

Rarity said, "Aww that creature is so adorable. What is it?"

I said, "This is a Pokémon. Pokémon are creatures with special abilities. There are different types of Pokémon that correspond with the different types of moves then can use." I directed their attention to the small electric rodent. "This is a Pokémon called Pikachu an electric type, which means it can use electricity to fight its opponents."

Twilight asked, "What other types are there?" She had a gleam in her eyes after hearing about a new species.

I said, "I can tell you, but I'm gonna need something to right with." Twilight floated a quill with ink on it and paper to my hands. I grabbed them and started to draw a chart on the paper. When I was done I showed them all the types of Pokémon and what damage they can do to the other types.

I said, "These are the types a Pokémon can have and each number represents the amount of damage they can do to the other type. The "0" means that the move type has no affect on the other type, the "0.5" means the move type can deal only half damage against an opposing type, the "1" means a move type can cause normal damage to the opposing type, and the "2" means the move type can deal double damage against a type that is weakest against it."

Twilight was amazed by all of this information. She said, "This is such incredible information and there are some many different types of creature. What other powers do you have?" I looked at Gemini to move on to my next power. Gemini nodded and turned back into myself. What he did next surprised them all. Gemini brought three different tentacles out from his back. These tentacles were red with black streaks on the edge of them and there were what looked like scales on them.

"What are those things?" Applejack asked.

I said, "Those are one the powers of a ghoul."

Rainbow asked, "What's a ghoul? And what are its eyes red?" I looked at the clone of myself and saw that the eyes have changed. The white in the eyes turned black with red cracks and the pupils were red with white surrounding them.

I said, "A ghoul is said to be a type of human with special abilities. They have those types of eyes because they what is called Rc cells inside them that give them these powers called Kagunes."

Starlight asked, "What do these Kagune do?"

"I will list them off from weakest to strongest from my point of view," I began explaining "First Ukaku ukaku-type ghouls have a high chance of ending a battle quickly as releasing Rc cells depletes stamina. Thus, ukaku-type users lack endurance and are at a disadvantage if the battle drags on for a long time. Ukaku-type users can use their speed and mobility to shoot down bikaku-type users from afar. Next is the Bikaku typically has a tail-like appearance and is released around the tailbone/coccyx. It is good for medium-distance attacks and has a decent offense, defense, and speed. Thus, they have no notable strengths or weaknesses like the kagune based on other Rc types, meaning the kagune itself is treated as a surprise "trump card." So far, the number of tails a bikaku user can create are one to fourteen tails. Next Koukaku is released from below the shoulder blade. Due to its high density of Rc cells, it is heavy and extremely robust, giving it the greatest sturdiness and making them very well suited for defense. Normally, they are generally shaped into armors or shields, but on the offense, they can be shaped like melee weapons such as drills, hammers, blades, and swords. Now, this next type in my experience is the most dangerous with the wide range of options they have or can make. They are also the most likely to become a binge eater. Rinkaku has an appearance like scaled tentacles and is release on the back around the waist. A rinkaku wielder has powerful regenerative abilities. Some could even survive the most critical of damage. Its peculiar appearance and structure yield a superior striking power and they excel in brute strength. Some rinkaku users can manipulate the shape of their kagune, such as changing its usual tentacle form into swords or claws."

They all had surprised expressions on their faces, probably thinking that something that is unbelievable. I would be thinking the same way even though I have these powers. I mean these powers are from fictional stories and now I have them after buying a couple of items from a merchant. And now I'm in a world full of pastel colored ponies with no way back home. It's not bad that I ended up here, I mean I have these new powers that most would probably dream of having and I'm in a world where magic is real. I think this is the change I needed and maybe I can make more friends the longer I stay here.

I had Gemini turn itself back to normal and I then sent them and Plue back to the Spirit world. After I sent them back my stomach started to grumble. I said, "All of that explaining made me hungry, do any of you know where I can get something to eat?"

Twilight said, "We can go to Sugarcube Corner. They should still be open right now."

I said, "Well then, lead the way." And just like that all eight of us left the throne room and made our way through the castle. I looked at all of the decorations around the room with awe. There were beautiful crystalline furniture along the hallways that brightened up the room and tied it together. However this castle was made I have to say it was well crafted. We went down stairs and came to two large doors that lead outside. When the doors were open I was met with the cool air and the shinning sun that was slowly setting in the horizon. I looked back at the castle and I saw it was just as amazing outside as the inside. It is a tall crystal castle with a giant star on top wit the sun setting behind it.

I was walking behind the rest of my new friends and started to look around the town. The town looks like it was made in the middle ages. It had a bit of a rustic feel to it in a modern age. There were no concrete streets and not many things made of metal. I have to say for a dimension that's not very tech based it is quite nice here. I think I can start to call this place home.

"LOOK OUT!" Three voices shouted.

I looked back to where the voices came from to see three young ponies speed our way. One was on a blue scooter while the other two were in a red wagon. I didn't know what to do at the time so I stuck my has out and activated my magic. I coved the ponies, scooter, and wagon in my magic aura and brought them to a smooth stop. When I opened my eyes I saw that scooter was only a few feet from running me over.

"Girls, what in the hay are you doin'?" Applejack asked.

"We're sorry Applejack. Scootaloo was drivin' too fast like always and lost control." The yellow pony said.

"I did not lose control. The wheels were just a little stuck." The orange pony named Scootaloo said.

"No they didn't, you're just a bad driver." The white pony said.

"Am Not!"

" Are Too!"

"Am Not!"

"Are Too!"

This went on for a couple of minutes of them arguing. Their arguing reminded me of when my sister and I were little and how we argued over a bunch of stuff. Our arguments were over the most ridiculous things, but at the end of it we came out of our arguments and just hugged it out. No matter how many times we fought, deep inside we cared about each other. The arguing went on until one of us got tired of their arguing and spoke up.

"Now that's quite enough of that you three." Rarity said getting the three pony's attention. "Do you realize that you almost hit our new friend, Tanner?" They looked at me and their faces had sad expressions on them. "I want you three to apologize to him this instant." The three ponies got up and walked to me with their heads.

"We're sorry." They said in unison.

I got my knee and patted their heads to get their attention. I said, "Hey, don't worry about it. No one got hurt so no harm no foul, right?" I gave them a warm smile and they gave me a smile back. "So, what are your names?" I asked.

"I'm Applebloom." The yellow pony with the big bow said.

"I'm Sweetie Belle." The white unicorn said.

"And I'm Scootaloo." The orange Pegasus said.

"And together we are the CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" They said in unison in a manner that made me want to cover my ears.

"Well my name is Tanner and it's nice meeting all of you." I said.

"Wow Tanner, you're wings are super cool." Scootaloo said while flapping her wings.

I rubbed the back of my head and said, "Thanks, I think so too." I saw her flapping her wings for a few seconds till she plopped back on the ground. I found that very strange, but didn't want to ask at the time. "Hey, do you three want to come to Sugarcube Corner with us?"

They nodded to my request and we continued on to our destination. While walking I found out more about my three new friends. I found out that Applebloom and Sweetie Belle are Applejack's and Rarity's sisters while Rainbow Dash is Scootaloo's honorary big sister. They told me about all the ponies they helped find a cutie mark or find a deeper meaning behind their cutie marks. As we were walking I noticed that we were the only ones walking on the street. I looked around the town and found none of this town's residents. Maybe they could be somewhere else or could be asleep in their homes since the sun is about to good down. After a couple of minutes we came up to our destination. It looked like it came from a children's story because it was building made out of candy.

I walked into the store and found the lights were off. I looked back at the others and found them gone. I was about to say something, but the lights came on and I was met with a bunch of new faces.

"SURPRISE!" All of the ponies said.

I was surprised, it has been a long time since I've been surprised like that and it was a good one. I looked at the banner at banner above and it said 'Welcome too Ponyville/ Thanks for saving us/ Happy Birthday Party.' This party was for me and I am quite thankful they took up the time to prepare this for me.

Pinkie came towards me and asked, "Did you like the surprise? Did yah? Did yah?"

I smiled and said, "Yes Pinkie, that was a great surprise."

"Then lets get this party started." Pinkie said as the music started.

The party was great, better than any party I've been to before. There was a lot of delicious food that looked similar to food I've had on Earth, but tasted a whole lot better. I met a lot of new ponies that live in this town. Some of them were a little cautious of coming towards me and I understood their caution. I assured them that I wouldn't harm them and my reassurance got them to know me. I played and bunch of different games and danced a couple of dances. After the last dance I plopped down on a chair and rested for a little bit. While I was sitting there Twilight and Rainbow came up to me.

"Hey there big guy, you having fun?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah, its been a while since I've had that much fun." I said.

"Well you look like you're having a lot of it." Twilight said. I saw this was my chance to ask them my question.

"Hey, can you two answer me a question?" I asked.

"Of course. What is your question?" Twilight asked

"I was just wondering, why does Scootaloo only get off the ground a couple seconds when she flaps her wings?" When I asked that they had sad expressions on their faces.

"It's because she can't fly."

"Why?"

"Because she has a disease that keeps from flying. This disease keeps her wings from growing. She's seen a bunch of doctors, but couldn't find any cure to it. The disease is incurable." Rainbow said.

What I heard from the two of them was awful. A disease that keeps a Pegasus from flying in the sky and feel the wind in their face. There must be something I can do to help her. I kept thinking until a thought came to my mind. The thought was of the spell that Faust taught me. The spell that can cure any disease or injury on a person, but I'm not sure if it will work on Scootaloo so I'll ask the pony that gave me this spell.

'Faust, Faust are you there?'I said in my mind.

'Yes Tanner I am here, what is it?' She answered back.

'I wanted to know if the healing spell you gave me can heal a disease in a Pegasus' wings that keep them from growing.'

'Yes, This spell can heal any disease like blindness, deafness, the ability to walk and more. When using this spell to cure a disease in a Pegasus' wings than it will get rid of the disease and the wings will grow to full size.'

'Thank you for telling me Faust.' I thanked her.

'Anytime.' After I was done with my one on one with Faust, I was getting looked at strangely by Twilight and Rainbow.

"What's wrong Tanner? You were out of it for a couple of minutes there." Rainbow said.

"Oh nothings wrong I was just thinking." I said trying to reassure them. "Rainbow, can you bring Scootaloo over to me?"

She raised a brow to me and asked, "Why?"

I said, "I just want to ask her something."

She didn't understand my reason for wanting the filly but she shrugged her shoulders and searched the room for the little Pegasus. After a couple of minutes of waiting Rainbow Dash came back with Scootaloo with a confused look on her face.

Rainbow said, "I brought Scootaloo, Tanner."

I nodded and looked toward the little filly. I said, "Scootaloo, can you come to the back with me there is something I want to show you?" I got and from my chair and went to the back. Scootaloo followed along with Twilight and Rainbow right behind us. When we came into the kitchen and found it was empty I turned to Scootaloo. I said, "Scootaloo, I heard about the disease in your wings that keep you from flying" That made her look down in sadness but was gonna change after hearing what I was gonna say next "but I believe I can fix your problem." That comment left the three ponies in shock.

Scootaloo ansked, "You can help me fly?" I nodded. "How?"

I said, "Just turn around and leave the rest to me."

She did as she was told and turned around. I brought my hands close to her back and began to cast the spell. The spell began removing the disease from Scootaloo's wings. When the disease was gone her wings started to grow to full size. When the spell was finished, Scootaloo got herself a new pair of wings.

"You can open you're eyes now Scootaloo." I said

She opened her eyes and looked back to see her new wings. She couldn't believe that she had wings of a full grown Pegasus. She flapped her wings and flew around the room for a couple of minutes and tackled me in the stomach. She cried in my chest and kept thanking me for what I did for her. After that moment we shared, she flew out of the room to show off her new wings. I looked at Twilight and Rainbow Dash's faces to see they have shocked faces so I told them about the spell and they couldn't believe I know a spell like that. Twilight asked me to teach it to her but I told her I don't know how the spell works.

When we walked out of the kitchen, everyone sight turned towards me. Before I know it a bunch of ponies telling me how amazing and kind I was to give that little filly the gift of flight. While I was talking a pony name Redheart came up to me and asked me to teach that spell to other unicorns at the hospital. I told her I can't teach the spell but I can heal all of the residents of the hospital that have diseases like blindness, deafness, can't walk, or other symptoms. She liked my proposal and agreed to meet me tomorrow.

When I done talking I met with my seven new friends. Fluttershy said, "That was really nice of you to do that for Scottaloo."

I said, "I just did what I could to make her smile."

Rarity said, "You certainly did do that, darling."

Pinkie asked, Hey Tanner, what are those weird necklaces around your neck?" I looked to where she was looking and answered her question.

I said, "These are magical amulets that allow me to summon instruments to play music."

"Does that mean you can sing?" I nodded. "You have to play."

"I don't know Pinkie. Its been awhile since I sang and I don't-" I said but looked at all seven of their faces saying that they won't give up on this until I agree. I sighed, "Fine I'll sing a song." That brought a smile to their face and Pinkie grabbed my arm and brought me to the stage. On the stage was a white unicorn with electric styled hair and glasses that covered her eyes. She kept playing her music until she spotted us coming towards her.

She said, "Hey Pinkie, what's up?"

Pinkie said, "I wanted to introduce my new friend, Tanner."

The DJ looked towards me and smiled. She raised her hand towards me and said, "Glad to meet yah, the names PON-3, but everypony just calls me Vinyl Scratch."

I smiled and shook it, "Glad to meet you." I said

Pinkie said, "Hey Vinyl, can Tanner sing a song?"

She gave a smile and said, "Sure thing! Let me get set up." She stopped the music, adjusted some things with her equipment, and pulled out a mic. "Attention Everypony!"

All the ponies looked up at us once they heard Vinyl call out.

"Tonight, our guest of honor Tanner will be playing a song for all of us! What do you all think of that!?"

The ponies cheered while Vinyl gave me the Mic.

I stepped into the center of the stage, placing the mic on the stand. After ensuring it was placed comfortably and effectively, I rubbed my guitar shaped necklace and summoned my guitar. This shocked everyone and when I was ready, I spoke. "Good evening everypony! Tonight, since I’m not from here, I’d play one of my favorite songs from back home. This one is called 'Reach for the Stars' by Alexander Makhlouf and Samuel Frisch. I then prepared myself for the song and signaled Vinyl with a thumbs up.

She nodded and turned the volume of the speakers up and adjusted the lights so I was in a spotlight of sorts. I then started playing the guitar, filling the building with it’s music.

Silence fell through the room... until i heard my friends cheering for me.

"That was awesome!" I heard Rainbow Dash yell from the crowd.

The ponies then began to cheer wildly for my performance. I smiled and gave a bow. I summoned my guitar back around my neck and walked back to my friends.

Twilight said, "That was incredible, Tanner."

"Thanks I just did my best." I said.

After that the party went on for a long time. I met even more ponies and made a couple of more friends. When the party was over and the party ponies left, me and the rest of our friends cleaned up the place. When the room was cleaned up, all of us left the place and headed home. I followed Twilight, Starlight ,and Spike since they offered me a place to stay. We were heading back to the castle and I was noticing the night sky. It was far more beautiful than the one on Earth. I could see all of the stars shining in the sky and the purple sky. The moon was what pulled it all together. It had a beautiful shine to it. We finally arrived to the castle and headed to our rooms. I went towards the room that I rested and woke up in. I said goodnight to everyone and headed towards me room with me animal friends following behind me. When I reached my room I took off my shoes and made my way to bed. When I got in bed all three of my friends snuggled up beside me and fell asleep.

"Goodnight, Tanner." They said

"Goodnight." I said as my eyes were starting to shut and I was starting to fall asleep.
