"WIND BULLET"

WOOSH CRACK CRASH

Once again I stood in the garden practicing magic but this time I was using wind magic, one of the more...diverse...magic so to speak. As we've seen from the show pegasi have some form of wind magic that allowed them to move clouds and do all kinds of things relating to the weather so I wanted to see what else wind magic can do.

I've found that if I applied wind magic to my feet or legs I could increase my speed and if I applied it to my hands they basically became knives that can cut through trees and stone buuut there was some form of risk in using it. Thanks to Twilight lending me some magic books I read that if one used wind maic to much then there was a possibility that my muscles would tear apart the pegasi don't have that problem due to decades of adaptation and evolution that enabled them to handle the strain of the magic.

Finally I found that concentrated bursts from my feet could lift me up in the air, but not for long though about five minutes or so, and I could launch 'wind bullets' from my hand but most of my wind attacks were...leathal...at best.

But moving past that wind magic was the third magic that I have learned, fourth if you include my void magic, I've learned teleportation, in the first month of learning teleportation magic I could only teleport small objects that were about 25-30 meters away from me but now I could teleport my self and two others from here to Ponyville, levitation, while I couldn't raise the sun or moon like the Princesses I could move something that weighs about 500kg give or take, and now wind, which was surpisingly easier then trying to learn the other two, again not counting void magic, maybe because I was just taking the wind from around me and then using internal magic to manipulate it's form.

"Shiro!" I heard someone's voice from above me. I looked to see Rainbow and Flutters hovering in the sky.

"Yeah what's up?" I waved them down to me. They both glided down and looked behind me no doubt seeing the mess I made with the tree.

"What have you been doing?" Rainbow asked me with her arms crossed and an eyebrow raised.

"Magic training," I told them while stretching my arms, "So what's up?"

"There was a stampede in town earlier but Applejack managed to save us." Flutters told me, I'm glad that talk last night got her to open up to me.

My mind flashed back to the *ahem* conversation we had last night, while my fast didn't nuke itself I did feel it heat up a bit, something which Rainbow caught.

"What's with the red face?"

"Nothing." I answered a bit to quickly in my opinion but she seemed to accept it.

"Oooooookay then. Anyway Mayor Mare,"

"Still can't get to used to that name."

"Is holding an appreciation ceremony for her but I'm guessing you already knew that with your freaky other world knowledge."

I put my hand under my chin in thought then realised that today is the 'Applebuck season' episode. Dammit this is why I asked AJ for a job, I was hoping to avoid this little shit show but might as well go with the flow, "Yeah that's about right but fair warning you might wanna rethink in what you want AJ to do for you guys or just bring me along as well as a sort of...insurance policy...so to speak."

They both looked at each other with confused looks.

"Uh okay then so do you want us to carry you or what?" Rainbow asked but I shook my head.

"Nah I can just teleport and meet you guys there. It's in front of the Mayor's office right?" They both nodded, "Okay I'll meet you there." I created a portal to Ponyville, did I ever say what colour my magic was?

Each unicorn had a 'colour' to their magic. Rarity's was a light blue, Twilight's was purple, Luna's was dark blue, Celestia's was a mix between orange/red/yellow kinda like the sun that she raised and mine, mine was black. It reminded me of a raven's wing or space but like space it wasn't scary to look at but it was more, calming then anything. I was about to step through it when Flutters grabbed my sleeve.

"Yeah Flutters?" I asked her.

"D-do you think I can come with you?" Why was she asking me this, "It's because i'm slow at flying so I would just hold everpony up." Ah that's why, I don't see why not.

"Sure just hold on to me and close your eyes. The first time is always...disorientating." She nodded and hugged my arm with her eyes closed. I looked to where Rainbow was but found that she was already in the air.

"I'll just meet you two there okay." And with that she shot of like a bullet.

"Okay you ready Flutters." She nodded and I walked us through.

=0=

We both appeared in front of the Mayor's office and...right behind Twilight. I put my finger to my lips when I saw Pinkie and Rarity standing in front of her. I pulled my arm out from Flutters grip but not before whispering to her, "Stay here for a sec okay." I slowly walked up behind her and then yelling.

It was amusing to watch her jump a foot in the air and then turn to me with a red face. Me and Pinkie were both rolling on the ground laughing.

"SHIRO! Why would you do that." She yelled at me.

"Can't talk...laughing too hard...ahahaha" That was the best respone I could give her. It was at this point that Rainbow touched down.

"What's up with those two?" She asked Twilight and Rarity they both responeded with a 'Nothing important'.

After a solid minute of laughing I stood up catching my breath, "Okay okay whoo i'm good now," I looked around and saw that different ponies were gathering, I faced the others, "Come on we best get down so Twilight can do her speech." Twilight seemed to catch the grin on my face.

"What's with that grin? You know somethings gonna happen don't you?" She accused me, she wasn't wrong buuut I wasn't gonna ruin the whole primice of the show.

"Nah guess I'm still giddy about earlier." I managed to play it off but she narrowed her eyes at me and walked away.

I joined the other girls in front of the stage but out of the corner of my eye I noticed a mint green blur. I hope that wasn't who I thought it was but knowning that i'm a human in Equestria I highlly doubted that I was wrong. I turned my attention to the stage where Twilight was staning behind a podium with a stack of flash cards.

"Welcome, everypony! Today we are here to honor a pony we can always count on to help in matters great and small. A pony whose contributions to-" She started to say but Rain bow cut her off by flying up there and hovering in front of her.

"Did you see Applejack's slick moves out there? What an athlete. This week she's gonna help me with my new flying trick, and I know it's gonna be so awesome."

Since I knew what was coming I decided to go over what was coming up.

'Okay so first up Twilight goes to AJ's farm and talks to her, then AJ 'helps' Rainbow, it fails, she crashes into the library, Twilight visits the farm again. Rinse and repeat, I'm hoping to stop this before she gets to Flutters god knows that this place doesn't need a bunny stampede plus Flutters seems...off...somehow, she seems more assertive then normal, not that it's a bad thing. Wait why I am thinking about Flutters again? I glanced over to where she was, empahsis on was, as she was now on the stage and again I couldn't help but notice how cute she was. Maybe I did like her like that? But I hardly know her, is what they mean by 'love at first sight'? Ugh I should really ask Cadance for some help when that event rolls around. 'Tommorow should be Gilda hmm wonder how i'm gonna help with that? Maybe hang out with Pinkie and let Gilda and Rainbow have some alone time but I gotta remember to stop Gilda before she makes Flutters cry' I was brought out of my musings rather harshly when I felt someone kick my shin. "Oww! The hell Twilight?"

I looked over to the purple unicorn who was...pouting?

"You knew this would happen didn't you?" She did not seem happy with me.

"Maaaaaaaaaaybe." I said smugly before she could say anything a familier cowponies voice was heard.

"I'm here. I'm here. [yawn] [sigh] Sorry I'm late--whoa--I was just... whoa... Did I get your tail?" The orange mare finally reached the stage and holy crap was she a mess. Her mane was all frizzy, her clothes were crumpled and her tail was in knots. "Miss Mayor. Thank you kindly for this here... award thingy. [yawn] It's so bright and shiny and, heh, heh heh, I sure do look funny heh. Ooo-ooo."

"Woo-ooo."

"Ooo-ooo"

...

I don't even know anymore. I sighed as Applejack took the trophy and, more then likely, walked back to the farm to continue her applebucking. Wait. Because she's an anthromorphic pony now does that mean she picks them off the trees normally or does she still kick them off and another thing what about all the pony drawn vehicles? Do they still do that here?

"SHIRO!"

"Gahh." I jumped in shock when I heard Pinkie shout right down my ear, "What is it Pinkie?" I asked the bouncing pink pony while rubbing ear.

"Nothing." That brought me up short.

"Then why did you shout down my ear?" I asked her confused as all hell.

"Oh because Twilight wanted you. Well I need to get back to Sugarcube corner. See you later~" She sang as she bounced away, literally bounced.

"What the-No, you know what i'm not even gonna question it." I then turned to Twilight who was standing with the others giving me a look, I sighed, "Yes I know what's going on but Twilight your gonna wanna go and talk to her to understand what's going on."

"Why not tell us darling?" Rarity asked, I noticed that something weird was going on with Spike being that he wasn't going all love-eyes while standing next to her. I decided to leave that for another day.

"Because there's something called the spacetime continuum and there's no way in hell am I diving down that rabbit hole." I said.

"Was that a Charles Lutwing Dodgson reference?" I was surprised that it wasn't Twilight who asked me that question but Rarity instead.

"Yeah..I'm honestly surprised that you got that referance." I was generally surprised that they have someone like him here.

"Mhm my favorite book of his was 'Through the looking glass' what about you?" Before I could answer, Hunting of the Snark by the way, I was interupted by Rainbow.

"Getting back on the topic of AJ. Is this why you said to 'bring you along as an insurance policy'?" She said the end part with air quotes.

"Yeah this is why," I turned my attention to Twilight, "Twilight you go and talk to AJ."

"What about you?"

"I'll just be...about...You'll be able to find me don't worry."

"Actually," Rarity spoke aloud getting all our attention, "I would like you to come with me Shiro."

"Uhh why exactly?"

"Because I assume you need a Gala suit and I also have some of your new clothes ready." She told me.

I had completly forgotten about the Gala but I had an idea for a suit, "Thanks Rare and I thought you said it would take you about a week?" She laughed and dismised me with a wave of her hand.

"That was for your whole wardrobe this is only a couple of outfits." Wait a couple? Jeez how many outfits did this mare plan to make?

"Uhhh okay then I guess you guys can find me at Rare's boutique then." And with that I followed the fashionista to her boutique.

=0=

"So humans don't get cutie marks?"

"That's right Sweete. Humans don't get cutie marks."

When we reached her boutique I had the 'pleasure' of meeting Rarity's little sister, Sweetie Belle, who, more or less, acted like she did in the show. She was quite shy when she first saw me but, like Flutters, I managed to get her to warm up to me.

"But how do you know what you're good at?"

"I too am curious dear?" They both asked me.

I rolled my neck back and fourth as Rarity looked around her boutique for my measurements for my suit. Before Sweete showed up I handed her my phone which had a picture of the suit I wanted her to make me.

"Well people just know I guess, It's kinda hard to explain really." I honestly had no idea how to explain it other than 'people just know'.

"What about you Shiro?" Sweete asked me with the most effective puppy dog eyes i've ever seen, "What are you good at?"

I had to think about this. "Well besides from working well with animals, I like to sing and play guitar in my spare time, chemistry too. Hmm I was okay at writing but that's about it."

"Do you think you could sing something?" God damn those eyes. Must resist.

"Sorry Sweete but no."

"Plllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllease." I took another look at her eyes before I floded like a deck of cards.

"Fine just this once okay."

"Yes."

I rolled my eyes at her before scrolling through my music for a good song to sing before settling on 'Diver-full english cover by The Unknown Songbird'.

"VERSE 1

The faded horizon is drifting further away,
As the people all around decay with suffocation.
Continuing to shape the world they clench to all their guns,
And surrounded by the hate, I find there's nowhere to run.

I'll bleed out these tears and take all this pain.
Maybe the path is fighting in vain.
And I can't carry on, I just can't be the one, again.
Even if flesh and blood turns against me like so,
The fire inside, Oh I'll never know,
To go so far, forsake the sins of time.

CHORUS

Fighting to hold on tight!
Yearning for a breath of life!
I cannot tell if I'm alive but,
Feels like I'm a suffocating diver!
Staring with endless sight,
Into a darkened night.
Taking in one last breath I dive into the unknown.
To the endlessness I go!

VERSE TWO

Revisiting the darkness locked away inside.
The loneliness remains and the emptiness confines.
Even though I always thought that I was strong within,
Frightened by the things I lack, my confidence wears thin.

Struggling to find a path in vain,
A bird still flies in a light gentle rain,
but I cannot define, no I can't deny that pain.

But I continue to walk, in myself I atone.
Am I a fool for standing alone?
To go so far, no longer will I know!
To where do I go?"

It was at this point the instrumental kicked in. I opened an eye to see them both bobbing their heads to the music. It was a habit of mine to close my eyes if I knew people were watching me, it helps to think that your alone when singing, well helps me at least.

"BRIDGE

The anchor of pain I hold bears down again,
Im Praying for life, for sound,
As it pours, like a sign, as the rain falls down again.

CHORUS

Fighting to hold on tight!
Yearning for a breath of life!
I cannot tell if I'm alive but,
I struggle to fight this drowning diver!
Staring with endless sight,
Into a darkened night.
Taking in one last breath I dive into the unknown, yet again,
Fighting for one last breath, ooh yeah!
If I could just come to realize the light at the end,
I would never drown again."

I opened both of my eyes after the song finished and blushed when I saw their looks. "Well? What did you think?"

"THAT.WAS.AMAZING." Sweete shouted, read 'squeaked', out.

"Yes I must admit that was something Shiro." I blushed even more after hearing their praises.

"You really think it was that good?" I was shocked. Normally I would put myself down when singing in front of others.

"I think it was." Hang on, that sounded like Flutters. I turned to see the yellow pegasus standing in the doorway.

"F-Flutters! W-why are you here?" I asked rather shakingly. I did not like the look Rarity was giving me.

"I was wondering if you would help me with the annual rabbit roundup?" Oh crap I completly forgot that AJ and Winona were helping her but caused a stampede instead.

"Sure I would love too," I created a portal to the castle, "Here you go Rare. Just step through that and place the clothes on my bed. I'll sort them out when I get back that sound good?"

"Yes that sounds fine now you two run along and enjoy your," She giggled before leaning up and whispering in my ear, "Date."

"Dammit Rarity it's not a date. She just wants my help is all." I hissed back before following Flutters out but not before hearing Rarity squeal all giddy like.

"So why do you want me to help?"

"Oh it's because you're good with animals and plus you said to come and get you if as an 'insurance policy'" She giggled a bit after saying that but I don't knooooooooooooh son of a bitch.

"You two are never gonna let me live that down are you?" I groaned out. It wasn't even that funny dammit.

"Oh i'm sorry if it annoys you." She said quietly and sadly, her ears were folded against her head. I pulled her into a side hug as to comfort her.

"Nah it's alright, it doesn't annoy me at all Flutters."

"meep." Why was she back to nervousness now? I looked to see that my hand was dangerously close to her boob.

*Loading...loading...loading
Done*

"OHCRAPSORRYFLUTTERSIDIDN'TMEANTTODOTHATISWEARITWASANACCIDENT!" I all but launched my self into an array of apologies, I honestly didn't know how the hell it happened I wasn't even thinking when I hugged her, it just felt...natural in a way.

"It's fine Shiro. We should hurry and not keep Applejack waiting." She quietly said, looks like we're back to square one.

Wait what did she just say?

"Did you just say Applejack is at yours?" I asked hoping that I heared her wrong. She nodded which made my stomach drop. I created a portal to her house, "We need to hurry Flutters."

"Why?" She asked me sounding a bit scared.

But it was too late as a stampede of bunnies came barreling past us.

"That's why," I hastely turned on my heels, "Come on Flutters maybe we can stop them before they cause too much damage to Ponyville."

And so we both ran back to Ponyville to try and do some damage control but damn we these things fast because by the time we reached Ponyville it was the same scene from the show. Ponies were fainting left, right and centre and the bunnies were eating all the plants.

"This has to stop." I heard Twilight's voice from behind me. I turned to her.

"She should be back at her farm. Do you need any help?" I asked her as I scooped up a bunny that was running past me before handing it to Flutters who gave a polite 'Thank you'. Twilight looked at the exchange between us.

"No I should be fine. You stay here and help Fluttershy." I nodded and went back to collecting and calming bunnies which was harder then you think. Man AJ and Winona really did a number on these guys.

=0=

After an hour me and Flutters finally rounded up all the bunnies and calmed them down, we were both sitting in Flutters cottage.

"Uggggggggh. Why was that so haaaaaaaaaaaard?" I half moaned half gasped out as I sat on the floor with a bunny that looked like an English lop in my lap. Flutters giggled at me.

"At least it was easier with you helping me. Imagine how long it would've taken me to do it alone, tea?" She walked in with two cups filled with a steaming liquid. I accepted one of the cups from her and taking a sniff of it.

"Lemon tea?" I asked taking a sip relishing in it's taste.

"Mhm, I got it from Rarity." She took a sip of her own cup and sitting down next to me. "I can't thank you enough Shiro."

"Twas no problem m'lady," I sat in silence thinking about this before throwing caution to the wind and asking her, "Hey Flutters."

"Yeah?"

"Do you-ya know-wanna go to the gala...with...me?" Oh god why did I say that. What the hell was wrong with me! Sure me and Flutters got along really well but it's only been three days, it has not been enough time for us to form a relationship with each other, even the worst of fanfiction relationships take longer then three days.

Flutters responded as I guessed. Incoherent mumbling but she seemed to stammer out a, "Y-yes I-I would l-like that S-Shiro."

"Ahaha r-really! W-wow Flutters t-thank you." Outside me was all happy but inside me on the other hand,
'SHITFUCKFUCKSHITFUCKWHATDOIDOWHATDOIDOCRAPCRAPCRAP.' Was freaking the fuck out.

Thankfully there was a knock at her door and Twilight's voice called out.

"Fluttershy! Shiro! Are you two in there?" I calmed myself, got up and opened the door.

"Yeah what's up Twi?" I asked hoping she wouldn't ask about the stammering pegasus and my red face.

"I was just wondering if you want to help at Sweet Apple Acres?" Oh thank christ a distraction.

"Sure, what about you Flutters?" I asked the pegasus in question. She seemed to have stopped her stammering but was still quiet.

"Y-yes." I gave Twilight a thumbs up.

"Okay well follow me." And so we did.

Sweet Apple Acres...

"Hggn...ugh..."

"Come on Shiro it's not that hard."

"I...beg to differ...Twilight..ha ha...Humans aren't meant to use...magic."

The reason why I was gasping like this was becaused I was using my magic to levitate a whole acre of apples. According to AJ there was about a hundred apple trees in every acre and each tree held thirty apples or so, meaning that I was lifting 550kg worth of apples. Something that was over my limit and when I told Twilight she said to me,

"Think of it as magical training. It's easy." Yeah easy for her maybe but not for me.

I was saved however when Applejacks voice called out.

"How about y'all take a little break? I got some fine apple juice waitin' for ya! [sigh] Girls and Shiro, I can't thank you enough for this help. I was acting a bit stubborn."

"A bit?" I took a seat next to Flutters and Winona came bouncing over. I started to stroke her behind her ears and I soon felt my self drifting off into Luna's realm.

"Shiro..." Ugh what the...that sounded like Applejack.

"I think they look cute together." And that sounded like Rarity.

"meep." And Flutters? It was at this moment when I realised something.

When was the floor this soft...

I opened my eyes to see that I was sideways and the girls were staring at me. I looked up to see Flutters red face, my eyes widened when I glanced down to see that I was laying on her lap. I did the equivalent to a bat out of hell with the speed in which I sat up.

"Uhhhhhhh." Was all I could get out.

"So how was your nap?" Rainbow asked with a smug grin on her face.

"Never speak of this again." They all bursted out laughing and I couldn't help but smile, Fluttershy even cracked a smile. It was offical.

I loved it here.

Author's Note

Ugggggh and there's another one.

Don't expect a chapter a day, I just wanted this one out of the way as soon as possible as I didn't like this episode. Also I feel like I'm rushing things between Shiro and Flutters, what do you guys think? But anyway I need one more girl for the heard/harem the list being this:
1) Fluttershy
2) Luna
3)Twilight
4)Rarity.
As I said it's between AJ, Rainbow, Gilda, Vinyl and Cele (as I said in the last author's notes if I have the moon why not have the sun) what do you guys think?

Anyway next chapter 'Griffon the brush off'.

Stay well, stay true. BYE BYE~
