“What the buck are you doing in my bed?!” Cadence angrily yelled while trying to not rip the human a new ass hole.

David looked around at the alicorn’s room with confusion before it dawned on him. “We were fucking pranked.” He said in a monotone voice before he connected the dots. “I bet it was those guards who escorted me to my room or maybe some of those guards who were in the hall. That leaves us with four suspects, but it could be all of them.”

“Or just one of them. If I remember correctly, at least one of them was a unicorn.” They paused and came to the same conclusion as each other. “Prank the pony or ponies who did this when we figure out who they are?”

“Agreed.” They got out of the bed that they some how didn’t fall out of during the questioning and intensity of the moment... or at least the beginning.

Cadence stayed in her bed and read a book while David picked a random book from Cadence’s shelf and read. He kept reading the book as it went from a slice of life type of book to porn in the first hundred pages. His eye twitched after reading as far in as he did before the book clattered to the ground. Cadence turned to him because of the noise and say him in the same standing position he was in when he began reading with his face as red as a tomato. Cadence got curious and levitated the book David was reading and read the title of the book before blushing in embarrassment and putting the book back on the shelf. David was slowly trying to figure out what he just read and what he learned about the Alicorn of Love.

“I... I... I...” David repeated while his mind was trying to pull itself together from it shattering itself. “I guess that lust is a type of love.” Cadence blushed harder after hearing what he said.

A second later, guards burst into the room with an almost fearful expression. “Princess Cadence, The Element of Magic was stolen an hour ago. Princess’s Celestia and Luna requests your presence.” They left soon after; completely ignored the standing human in the room.

“I guess the fun never ends.” David said as he immediately wiped the blush off his face. He didn’t need to change his clothes either since he got into the habit of sleeping in his clothes.

“Wait!” Cadence yelled with a blush as she was still trying to get over the embarrassment of the human finding her porn books. “Please... please don’t tell anyone what you saw.” David nodded before leaving through the door the guards left through.

“I wonder how long it’ take for her to remember that her night wear is see through?” David walked in a random direction to hopefully find something familiar to navigate through the maze like palace. All he did was track his link with Jason to navigate to the black cat.


David stood with the mane six, and the princesses in front of a crystal mirror that seemed to be normal. On his back was a thin bag on his back that held Excalibur along with a hastily made sheath to prevent the blade from penetrating through the bag.

“So this is where she went?” David said with his normal emotionless tone. “She just... ran through?”

“Yup!” Pinkie yelled in excitement.

“Then I’ll scout it out.” David poked his head through the mirror to find what he least expected. “It’s a damn high school.”

He pulled his head out with amazement, but didn’t express it due to years of him being stoic. He didn’t say a word as he walked through the mirror and to the other side before hearing three more portal like sounds that reminded him of when he was called to his mentor. He looked behind him to find a human Twilight, a dog version of Spike, and Jason like he always been.

“What!” Jason yelled in out rage. “How come I’m still a cat?!” David picked him up and placed Jason on his head.

“Probably because it only works if you go from your home realm to a different realm. Then again, I stayed human going form Earth to Equestria.” David adjusted his single strap bag to keep it from being uncomfortable. “I guess we’ll go in there.” David calmly walked in with his emotionless expression that hasn’t changed. He showed no hesitation while walking in with the other two on his back to help navigate through the crowd and not get separated. “Just as horrible as I remember.”

“It’s... not... that... bad.” Twilight was like a pin ball as she bounced off of every person that bumped into her. Eventually, she fell to the ground as people rushed to their class. “I take back what I said.”

“Didn’t anyone tell you not to take anything without the owners permission?” A woman asked angrily causing the four to follow the voice.

“Oh... umm... I’m sorry.” A familiar voice apologied to the angry woman.

“I don’t want your damn apology; just shut up and try to fix it.”

“B-b-but I already gave it to Principle Celestia.”

“I don’t care! Just do it!” David heard enough and rushed towards the voices with his full speed that left a loud crack where he was.

He made it to the hall that the voices were coming from and pulled a humanized Fluttershy away from a woman with yellow skin and red and yellow hair. David look at her henchmen that were chubby and small while the other was tall and skinny.

“Who are you?” The angry woman seethed at the normally emotionless expression. David looked pissed and glared at the woman with hatred.

“The one who’s gonna fuck you up if you continue this.” David said confusing anyone watching at his emotionless tone. They couldn’t tell if he was serious or not.

“What’d you say?!” The angry woman yelled even more pissed.

That didn’t last long as she was raised into the air by her shirt by David who was struggling to not kill her. “You. Heard. Me.” He let her go and backed away to keep himself from killing another human.

“Your gonna regret that!” She yelled while making a hasty retreat.

“You could kill me for all I care! I’m already dead inside! You’ll be doing me a favor!” He gave her the bird and turned to the human Fluttershy. “What a fucking bitch.”

“You... you actually stood up to Sunset Shimmer.” Fluttershy took a step backwards and away from the Medium.

“David, that was not the right corse of action. We probably made a powerful enemy.” Jason said as he hopped down from David’s head.

“I prefer her than our old enemies. She wouldn’t even be able to do anything against me.” David responded while shifting his hand to avoid his fingers from cramping around the sheath.

“D-did that cat just talk?” Fluttershy took a step back at the absurdity of the normal speechless animal.

“I’m not a just a cat; I’m a Spirit! David here,” Jason patted David’s leg, “is my Medium!”

“This shouldn’t be possible.” Fluttershy was trying her hardest to make sense of the situation.

“Should we be glade she avoided acknowledging the sword or Worried that something like me can distract someone like that.”

“A little bit of both would be good.” David turned to the human Fluttershy and held out his hand. “Would you like help?”

The girl in question tentatively took his hand, but instead of being yanked up like she expected, she was gently lifted to her feet.

“Umm... t-thank you.” Fluttershy stood awkwardly and observed the stoic teen who seemed to show no emotion.

“I guess I should introduce myself.” David held out his hand for her to shake it. “David Blake. Nice to meet you.”

The timid girl took his hand and gently shook it lightly which David was use to. “I’m Flutter...” she trailed off causing David to pretend that he heard the entire thing.

“Nice to meet you Fluttershy, I’m Jason Gray.” The black cat introduce with childlike enthusiasm. David got lucky that Jason could hear every word.

“Nice to meet you Jason.”

“THERE YOU GUYS ARE!!!” They heard Twilight yell as she rounded the corner with spike hot on her tale. “You just ran off and left me in the hallway!”

“You should have followed the noise we were making or call out Marco.” David countered with out knowing one crucial flaw in his statement.

“Polo!” Jason yell to complete it.

“What?” Twilight questioned in confusion. At this moment, David knew... he fuck up.

“How do you not know about Marco Polo?” Fluttershy asked with a tilt of her head.

“It’s not common where she’s from so Most people don’t know about it.” David defended to not arose suspicion from the timid teen.

“Oh, well... I haven’t seen you here so I guess that you need to enroll in the school. I’ll take you to Principal Celestia’s office.”

“Many thanks.” Fluttershy turned away from the four and began to walk. It didn’t take long for the rest to follow.


The five reached a metal with the plate saying ‘Principle Celestia’ on it which David just shrugged at before walking in. Jason followed swiftly as the door began to close.

“Excuse me, Celestia.” David called as the woman in question got a good look of the teen. She saw that despite what her position was in the school, he didn’t bother to use her title to accompany her name.

"May I have the pleasure of your name Mr..." She trailed off at his name as it escaped her mind. She was surprised that she didn't remember his name despite her amazing memory.

"David, David Blake." He said his tone never once breaking it monotone sound. She stared at the apathetic teen with judgmental eyes to see if there was something that she would use to know him better. Unlike most teachers, she was able to decipher body language in a second; however, he was on guard constantly as if he could be attacked at any moment.

"A pleasure to meet you Mr. Blake. If I may ask, who is your friend?" David looked over to her as she seemed like she was about to say her title and name.

"Twilight, her name is Twilight." He answered for her before she typed something into her computer before two schedules were printed for the two. She handed the two their schedules before taking notice of the car that had jumped on David's head.

"I'm sorry Mr. Blake, but no pets allowed." Celestia said which caused Jason to glare at her before voicing his complaints.

"IM NOT A PET!!!" He yelled as Celestia's eyes widen from a talking cat that seemed to be normal to the teen. "I'm a spirit. Not a pet, not a cat, a spirit!" He had a few volts of electricity sent threw him as he stiffened from the sudden shock.

"Indoor voice, Jason." He picked up the cat in his arms with the upmost care and cradled him like a baby. "We have to get to our class now. We will see you later, Celestia." They left the room while Celestia was still trying to process the what she just saw.

"Luna!" She yelled as a woman looking somewhat like Luna, except human, walked through the door.

"Yes Celestia?" She asked as her sister had a disgruntled expression. Her hair seemed messy and she had the expression of deep thought with a little worry.

"Do you still have that whisky stash you hid from the school board during that inspection?" Her sister nodded as Celestia rubbed the sides of her head. "Good, because I need a few bottles." Luna smiled and ran to her desk to take a board from underneath it that hid a secret cupboard. Celestia put a sign on her door to turn anyone around if they needed her before locking the door for good measure.

Luna walked back in with five bottles in her arms and a shot glass in each hand. She felt two bottles leave her arms as well as a glass from her hand. Celestia swiftly opened a bottle and fill the glass with whisky before downing it in one go.

The taste lingered on the back of her tongue as she flinched from the burning sensation of the whisky. She coughed a little before she finally gave a single word in response of that. "Fuck." She muttered as she pored herself some more before it vanished instantly as she drank it.

"Show down Celestia, you haven't drank before... Actually, what brought this up." Celestia looked at her sister with a small blush as the alcohol quickly got to her.

"I... I neesh yo to talk to thish kid named David. He'sh a shtange one." Luna shook her head knowing that her sister would soon blackout if she didn't get alcohol poisoning before that. She removed the whisky from the desk before her sister would have a chance to pass out on them and spill perfectly good whisky. Much to her surprise, she passed out a few seconds later.

She only had a few shots in total. Not enough to to get drunk off of. "Pfft, light weight." She drank the rest of the bottle and went to a closet to get a bucket so her sister could, eventually, throw up in.

"Now... Where is this David?" She exited the room and locked the door before leaving. She didn't have to worry about it because she had a key... Unfortunately she left it in her desk... On the other side of the door.


Author's Note

I'm back! I'm not braindead anymore... Mostly. I'm going with the flow on this one, but I will be joining the Sea Cadets in around a month so I wouldn't be able to write as often as I would like.
