Chapter 2

Twilight got over her shock after Knack had introduced himself to her and Knack told her who he was and how he didn't know where he was from. He told her that there was more like him that could cause harm to Equestria. Twilight asked him for permission to introduce him to Equestria and he said yes so she brought him to Celestia.

Knack into rides himself to Equestria and told her who he was and he said how he didn't know where he was from. Celestia asked him if there were other creatures just like him and he said yes. Celestia asked him if these were friendly and he said no so she asked him if he could defend Equestria against these monsters and he said yes.

Celestia told Twilight that she should offer her place to Knack and she obliged her as she let Knack live in her castle. Twilight introduced Knack to Spike and her friends and Spike and her friends grew to like him and Knack grew to like them as well. She also introduced her family to him and they grew to love Knack and he grew to love them as well.

Celestia had archeologists excavate the temple that Knack had originated from. Celestia had archeologists search for similar temples and they did and when they did several creatures escaped and wreaked havoc on Equestria so Knack volunteered to protect Equestria.

Celestia agreed to let him defend Equestria as she deployed him to fight each monster that attacked someplace in Equestria. He was deployed several times and he saved Equestria countless of times and he was awarded for his heroic acts against the monsters as he received medals.

The monsters were studied by scientists immensely each time they were defeated by Knack. Knack had a day created in honor of him and the day was meant to be spent by observance of his acts and deeds for Equestria. Schools were closed on that day just like they were closed on Hearth's Warming Eve.

Knack met with several leaders from countless lands in and beyond Equestria. He was revered as a great hero. When Knack wasn't fighting he talked to his new friends or just hung out and even slept but when news of a monster emerged he was sent to defeat it and he was successful in these battles each time. He was a very good fighter and everybody agreed that he was allowed to be given legend status.

Knack's deeds were recorded in history books so that students in schools could learn about all of the great things he did for Equestria. A lot of him worshiped him like a god while he said that he was just doing his duty.

Several statues were made in his honor and he appreciated it and although a lot of people celebrated him some critized him as they critized how he fought monsters as several advocated that they fought against the creatures themselves and rule Knack as a criminal combatant but Celestia shut them down each time they tried as Celestia, Twilight, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack, the royal family and Knack's supporters would always defend Knack against any criticism was used against him.

The people who criticized him soon gave up as they had no point to criticize Knack as Knack helped them out whenever they were in trouble so they stopped and it was declared as another victory for Knack and Equestria.

Knack mingled with the citizens in Equestria and they treated him like a great friend. Meanwhile scientists were hard at work to discover how Knack was created but they couldn't come up with any conclusion. The media requested several interviews with Knack and he agreed to all of them as he didn't mind.

Knack continued to live with Twilight for a short amount of time and then he moved out on his own as several citizens made a home for him in Ponyville which he thanked them for as he was very greatful that the citizens helped him out so much. The home was very beautiful and well built. The home had several defenses as well as It would protect Knack when he was inside the home in his small form. He lived in the home from then on as he continued to interact with Twilight and her friends.

Knack met with the royal family several times as he helped them out in building strategies to fight against these creatures. Knack also agreed to fight other enemies of Equestria who weren't relic like so when Equestria was attacked by non relic creatures they deployed him several times and he fought these non relic creatures for Equestria.

The first few years for Equestria who were now dealing with relic monsters were tough but it got easy overtime as several cannons were built all around Equestria to defend against these creatures. The cannons were very helpful as they were used to shoot at several creatures that attacked Equestria while Knack fought them as well.

Several shelters were built to hid citizens during a monster attack as they created alarms that could be sounded whenever a creature attacked. So whenever a creature attacked the alarms would sound and the citizens of the town that was being attacked where put in these shelters and then they could leave once the attacks were done.

Sometimes citizens had to rebuild their homes after they were destroyed by the monsters that attacked Equestria. Knack helped these citizens rebuild wherever he was and the mane six also lent their help as well. Several people who were builders also helped to.

The attacks continued to happen all around Equestria but even if these attacks continued all around Equestria the citizens that lived all around Equestria remained strong as they always fixed their towns after. They never gave up as Knack gave them hope to believe in. They never gave up on Knack either and Knack never gave up on them either.

Chapter 1

Twilight Sparkle was in her room as she was writing a short story on a piece of paper to pass the time. She wasn't going I sell the story of anything but she was going to share it with whoever wanted to see what it said. As she wrote on the piece of paper she heard something going on downstairs.

She wondered if one of her friends had come to see her although her friends were never seen out past the afternoon as the sun was already setting since it was almost time for bed. Curiosity got the best of her as she got up and went downstairs to see who was at the door. When she went downstairs she opened the door and was greeted by Spike.

"Where have you been?" I thought you were in the castle." Twilight said. Spike shrugged and moved past her as he set down his stuff. Twilight stared at him in disbelief as Spike was ignoring her? Twilight turned around and stared at him.

"I was out having a late dinner with Rarity. It ran a bit late than what we were expecting. Where have you been?" Spike asked mocking her. Twilight glared.

"Here. I have been here the whole time. I've been writing." Twilight said. Spike shrugged and watched Twilight put her coat on and opened the door. Spike looked at the clock and then gave Twilight a confused look.

"Where are you going it's late?" Spike asked. Twilight grabbed her keys from the wall and hooked me to her pants and then pulled the door open and looked back at him as she sighed in annoyance.

"I'm going out for a while. You can stay out of trouble while I'm gone. I'm only going to be gone for a few minutes you will be fine." Twilight said. Spike gave her a concerned look.

"Just be careful it's dark out." Spike said. Twilight sighed as she waited for him to be quiet so she can speak.

"Just promise me that you can stay out of trouble for time being that I'm gone. You should be able to do that. Do you remember protocol?" Twilight said.

"Yes Twilight I'll be fine. No answering the door. No answering the telephone. Call the emergency services in case of an emergency and if I'm hungry there is pizza in the fridge I know." Spike said while groaning. Twilight nodded.

"Good I will be back." Twilight said she closed the door and locked it. She took a short stroll towards the exit of the town. She stopped and sat on a bench. Before she could relax she heard something coming from a cluster of trees before her she stopped for a second and stared in that direction.

The noise sounded really scary. She stared in fear in the direction it was coming from. She put her stuff away and decided to go and investigate it, she got closer to this entrance of some kind. It was almost pitch black outside so she had to be careful. She took out her lighter and lit it guide her way although it wasn't enough.

She slid into the cave and walked in the direction the noise was coming from. Her hands were shaky as she tried to move through the the dark cave. She couldn't see ten steps ahead of her even with the lighter that was lit. She moved as slowly as she could.

It took forever to get to where the sound was coming from. She head never seen this entrance in Ponyville before until tonight. She felt deep dread as she walked through the cave. That was when she got to an ancient looking door. She wondered if she could push it open.

She tried as hard as she could to push it open. She struggled as it wouldn't budge. She pulled as hard as she could and then she managed to pull it open and in the center was a pedestal with an orb on top of it.

She moved slowly towards the orb as it floated on the pedestal. She reached her hands out and the orb flew into her hands. She had never seen an object that looked like what she was holding now. She realized that it must be very ancient as the temple looked ancient.

She decided to take the orb and the pieces and went back home. She felt bad for stealing but she wanted to discover what she was holding could do. She went back home and spread them out on the table in front of her and looked over them.

When Spike entered he looked over the pieces with a confused look and he looked at Twilight who was trying to figure the pieces out. Spike approached them as well and looked at them.

"What is that? Where did you find these...relics? They look like relics but I've never seen relics that look like that before." Spike said. Twilight shrugged.

"I've never seen anything like it either. I found it in this small cave near our town. I don't know why something this strange and ancient looking would be located here." Twilight said. Spike looked them over.

"Are you going to bed Twilight?" Spike asked. Twilight shook her head.

"No I am going to stay up. Goodnight Spike." Twilight said. Spike went to bed as Twilight continued to study the ancient relics. She drank coffee to stay up as she tried to figure out what they were.

While she was studying them she studied the puzzles etched on the pieces and soon she came to the realization of what it might be. It took hours to study it but once she had what she needed she was able to activate something inside of it to make it start a formation of some kind.

When she had finished she looked over at what had formed on the table and she saw a strange relic looking creature that had a cone shaped like head. It looked at Twilight and spoke.

"Hello. I'm Knack." It said.
