Author's Note

I know it’s short, but I plan in doing a lot more with this. Hope you enjoy.

Prologue

The sky’s darkened as something began to emerge out of the Pacific Ocean near the Golden Gate Bridge causing those who remained in the area to flee in fear and terror at the unsightly creature that was rising from the ocean. It was a large monster that is said to reside in the pacific or roam around it. Now, people know that it is true based on the enormous Goliath emerging from the ocean. It lifted its head skywards before opening its mouth to expose its rows of razor sharp teeth and let out an unholy screech that pierced the eardrums of everyone in the world. The creature lowered its head and stared at a lone apathetic seventeen year old on the bridge with its pitch black eyes.

The seventeen year old stared blankly at the creature because he has seen worse since the creature’s cult sent horrible, suffering amalgamations after him. Underneath his cold demeanor was a burning rage that threatened to breakout as the teen stares at the corpse of the cult leader he recently killed, but not fast enough as the cult leader unleashed the horrors of Leviathan before his death. There was a familiar, only to the Leviathan and the teen, golden blade buried deep within the cultist’s chest that was stained with the cult leader’s own blood as the golden blade was plunged deep into his chest to the point where only a foot of the sword could be visible.

The teen slowly reached over and grabbed the blade’s handle before yanking it out of the ground in one swift movement that was unhindered despite it being plunged through bone and concrete that was once it’s momentary prison. The teen wore a black leather jacket with the pockets and zipper area lined with white lines to clearly see the opening and pockets of the jacket. The design was of two Phoenixes facing each other while rising from the ashes and their wings flared; their beaks just centimeters apart but forever frozen as a design. Underneath the jacket was a plain white shirt that would occasionally poke out from underneath the jacket when the wind blew into his face sense he kept his jacket unzipped. Lastly, he had plain jeans that were a dark blue that matched the clothing extremely well as well as his black sneakers that had a small coat of blood staining the bottom of them. Around his left hand was crackling electricity while his hands were clinched shut in frustration and anger while letting the smallest appearance of hatred show before reaching down to grab the assault rifle the crazy cult leader used against him.

On the back of the teen was a black cat with two tails and gray eyes that was glaring at the abomination in front of them. The cat felt a pang of sadness hit him after seeing the creature that sent his monsters into his realm and took his home. The small cat can still see the faces of his parents as they put him in stasis before sealing him in the gateway between Earth and The Aether until his medium was born. Suffice to say, he was long awaiting his tormentors suffering and agony by the hands of the teen for revenge.

The bridge was littered with walls of vegetation and somewhat abandoned cars that vary few hid in for safety after the battle began against the cult. The corpses of woman, children and men lay dead on the ground as sacrifices for the large creature that recently emerged from the great depths of the Pacific. Their expressions ranged from terrified to pain as they spent their last moments in agony by the cults own hand.

The large eldritch abomination took long strides to its intended target as the bridge shook with every mighty step the colossal monster took. It reached the large bridge before it raised its massive hand before bringing it down next to the teen with enough force to cause a shock wave to ripple the water causing a tsunami to destroyed Alcatraz Island and many buildings at the coast. The teen used the opportunity to jump onto the monsters hand and impale it with his blade to keep himself from falling as the bridge collapsed and all those who hid in their cars drowned in the waters below.

The rifle the teen held was slung across his back as he scaled the monster’s hand with amazing speed to the point where his cat companion was having trouble staying on his back. The teen scaled the large monster’s arm until it lifted its arm to a horizontal position which the teen used to his advantage as he ran as fast as he could towards his goal.

He didn’t make it far as a large hand snatched him up in the hand’s strong grip. He struggled in the hands grip as the giant hand began to squeeze him as bones popped and cracked. He screamed in pain as his ribs punctured his lungs causing him to begin to cough up blood like a water fall. He failed to notice through his pain that he was lifted high into the air and thrown to the waters below.

He felt his body plunge through something, but it wasn’t water as he sped through whatever he was in. His breathing faster and faster as time went on, but his anticipation grew along with his dread once his body stopped accelerating and maintained his maximum velocity. Each one of his breaths were even more painful than the last once the adrenaline began to leave his body.

For the first time in years, he felt helpless and weak. Like all his time building up his strength was for nothing, but to humor those who wished the world to end. His eyes began to darken once his blood loss got the best of him.

He couldn’t hear his spirit telling at him to hang on as it’s tears soaked his shirt until his back hit a stone like surface. His body fell from a great height before a pink blob plucked him from the sky as he fell. The last thing he saw was his saviors face which had horse like features except it had larger, more expressive eyes along with a shorter muzzle. Unconsciousness followed swiftly after as the last thing he heard and felt was Excalibur falling from his grip and into stone. For the first time in a while, he smiled as he couldn’t help but remember what started Arthur’s journey through many battles and conflicts. The sword in the stone.

Chapter 1

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 2

David walked around the palace for a while to clear his mind from the talk he had with the others about his sister. He couldn’t hold in the anguish he felt and turned it into anger before lashing out at a nearby pillar with his sword and a cry of rage. The pillar collapsed with a resounding crack following from the crystalline floor and let out another cry, but this one had an overwhelming tone of sadness. His once stoic face was stained with tears as the memory resurfaced from the back of his mind.

He heard the tell tale sign of shoes against the floor before he found the nearest window and jumped out. He was falling fast as his body weight and the gravity of the planet worked in tandem to drag him to the unforgiving ground below. He was smart and could think straight enough at the to stick his sword into the outer walls of the palace to slow his descent to the ground.

He couldn’t do much but find a place to seclude himself to gain enough self control to revert back to his stoic attitude. He couldn’t do so as he found a disturbance in the street which was between a mare and a few stallions. Those creepy faces the stallions has only spelled trouble for the onlookers and the mare. He looked on as one of them grabbed her and tried to bring her close only for her to kick him between the legs. He yelped loudly before his hands darted down words as his compatriots advanced towards her making David’s blood boil.

Arcs of electricity danced around his body as he activated his passive ability as those who looked at him in curiosity watched him vanished with a crack. He caught the falling mare and held her bridal style before letting her get to her feet.

“Go, I’ll handle them.” David said before the woman ran away with a cry for help. He brought Excalibur to his right hand before he extended his arm to point at the stallions before his body let of arcs of electricity and he practically vanished into thin air.

One of the attackers fell over unconscious with the medium behind his falling body. David saw no threat against him so he dropped the blade of his sword into the crystalline walkway before speeding off to the last two. They didn’t have time to block or dodge as David’s hand was firmly on to their stomachs before he flooded their bodies with enough bolts of electricity to knock them out. It worked as they slumped onto his shoulders unconscious.

He waited for anyone to come and take the two unconscious bodies away. He didn’t wait long as he was now surrounded by crystal guards holding him at spear point. Many of them looked happy while some looked stoic.

Cadence appeared behind them with a flash of light, but looked almost pissed. “David, I know that your trying to adjust to your new lifestyle here, but the guards need to do their job. The ponies can’t lose faith in their only means of protection here.” She said in a stern tone, but he didn’t see the point of not stepping in to help her.

“Would you prefer if I just kill them instead?” She took a step back after hearing that as it seemed so unexpected to her and she couldn’t tell if he was being serious or not with that straight face.

She got her answer when he pulled his sword from the ground and held it in a reverse grip high up above the unconscious stallions. It seemed to happen in slow motion as the blade came down with almost unrealistic speeds. He was stopped, however, by Cadence as she seemed more complete pissed off at his attempt to kill.

“Are you trying to get the reputation of a merderer?!” She yell in horror and anger.

“Why stop me when none of your guards have blood on their hands.” His neutral expression made it near impossible for her to tell how he felt. “What’s three more live to the hundreds I’ve taken.” She stepped back as the guards advanced to him. He cut off all the spearheads from the shaft of the weapons before walking away.

“So you decide to spare them. You are an interesting creature indeed.” The unexpected voice caught him off guard and he instinctively forced electricity from an outstretched arm. It was blocked by a golden ethereal shield that glowed in the sun’s light. “One who can manipulate electricity as Cadence said. You are an odd one indeed.”

“Who are you?” He asked as two regal ponies came from the sky and landed. He prepared for a fight as more guards landed and raised their spears against him.

The two raised their hands to silently order them to stand down, but he kept his guard up. “You do not need to keep your sword up.” Said the one in a white dress and golden regalia.

“And why should I?” He bared his teeth while som of the guards recoiled in offense.

“How dare you talk to the prince—“ he couldn’t finish his sentence as David was already had his blade to his neck. Not a single one of the guards could see what he did and how he got there so fast.

“What was that?” He asked darkly causing a shiver to run down their spins; even the princesses couldn’t help but take a step back in fear.

“N-nothing.” David vanished and reappeared back in his original spot with a crack.

“What are you?” One guard asked with a little bit of fear.

“A Medium, or Biospirit if you want to be technical.” He looked more relaxed, but the trained guards and princesses could tell he was ready to fight in under a second. “But Biospirits are made, the only thing they’re born with is the genetic trait to create a bond with a spirit in body and soul. Although, with training, you can sever the link between one another... or at least the body portion. It would be helpful that we didn’t get a would at the same time.”

“Why is that?” The navy blue pony asked.

“When I mean body and soul, I mean that our souls are connected and body means that we can receive the same injuries unless we get specific training to sever the body like, but that doesn’t mean we can separately die. When one dies, the other dies.” They all were shocked to her that.

“How?” Cadence asked with sadness.

“When a Medium first makes contact with their spirit, they have to meet their end or, in other words, they have to die. What element or gas, liquid, solid, or plasma killed them; they’ll control it. In my case, I was killed when lightning struck me along with a power line snapping. I was weakened by the lightning, but when that power line hit the puddle I collapsed in, that killed me. That was when I met my spirit, Jason Gray, one of the princes of the Aether that survived the genocide.”

He stopped before he let anything else out. David was unsure if he was under any influence by any of the royals around him, but didn’t speak in a small bit of fear. He couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him; was there something in the air that was making him tell them about what he knows or was it something else.

“I think I should stop here. I don’t want to reveal anything privately about me.” ‘Especially since speaking about your or anyone else’s death is a taboo for all Mediums.’ He said nothing and walked away with his guard still up as he seemed to leave with his guard still up.

Cadence groaned in a slight bit of annoyance after seeing him walk away. “Why is he so difficult to keep an eye on?” She mumbled with her annoyance seeping into her tone.

“Well, since we’re here, why don’t we stay over for the night. A storm’s coming and I, for one, don’t want to fly through that.” The navy blue one said causing her sister to look at her with a sly grin.

“Aww, my little Luna is learning modern speech. I’m so proud of you.” The white one mocked, knowing that it would taunt her sisters proud nature.

“Thou should hold thy tongue, Celestia!” She practically bellowed as her sister as she laughed.

“So that’s their names.” David mumbled from a nearby alley before walking the rest of the way to the palace.

David walked around the city for a long while to clear his mind from the confrontation that happened a few hours ago. His mind was still in a state of sadness from the question about his sister, but he couldn’t place his finger on why he hasn’t forgotten about the question.

“Dammit, why haven’t I forgotten that damned question!” He whispered in a slight amount of anger and annoyance. “Fuck it!” He ran back to the palace with a loud crack. “I’ll sleep on it.” He ran all the way to the palace with one goal on mind: sleep.

When he reattached it, he was immediately greeted by two guards that saluted to him. He was confused by the sudden action to him especially after what he almost did hours ago. He didn’t show it since he mastered the ultimate poker face and can show little to no body language while speaking or standing. It would scare his enemies into thinking that he wasn’t terrified, but, in reality, he wanted to throw the sword and run.

“Sir, we have been tasked to find and escort you to the dining hall, sir!” One of the two yelled with a stoic expression and a distinct feminine tone. Their were cracks in it and many openings that can let other read it, but were meniscal to the untrained eye.

“Very Well. Take me to the ‘dining hall’ please.” His voice showed no emotion which scared the guards a little, but they complied with their orders.

The dining hall wasn’t far from the beginning of the palace. It was about a few turns from where the party of three began their small journey through the palace itself.

When they reached the crystalline doors to the dining hall, they swung open to reveal the four monarchs and all those who accompanied Twilight. Fluttershy, being the kind and caring soul she was, rushed to him and checked his body for any bruises, cuts, or broken bones.

“What are you doing?” David asked as Fluttershy began to realize what she was doing. She backed away from him with a nervous blush after being caught treating a sentient being like an animal.

“I was... Umm... seeing if you had...” She trailed off and rushed back to her seat with incredible speeds.

“We heard you took down a few thugs and she was worried you got hurt.” Rainbow Dash explained while looking not interested in the slightest.

“My personal health should not be any of your concerns. Besides, I don’t give a damn if I live or die.” All heads shot to him after that declaration, but he promptly ignored them and took his seat.

“Why don’t you care?” Cadence asked with sadness at the fact someone could care so little for their life.

“My sister and friends were killed by my parents, my school was massacred by them as well when they boomed it, I was forced to kill my own parents with a damn pencil, and if that isn’t enough; my realm is going under a full scale invasion from Infernus after a thousand years of them being dormant!” David’s voice began to raise as he recounted the hell he had been through in the past few years.

“Don’t say that!” A young voice yelled as a small black blur slammed into his chest. “Don’t say that!” It yelled in a wavering tone as the sentence became more and more incoherent as the voice began to sob. It’s wails of sadness affected the emotionless teen as tears welled in his eyes. “I need you big brother, I need you!” David Hughes the small mass with what no one suspected to see, sadness.

“I’m sorry Jason. I’m so sorry.” His voice was saddened as well as the occupats of the room watched with smiles at the brothers and found what made David’s emotionless shell crack: his brother.

“I’m sorry! I should’ve protected her! I was just so scared that I couldn’t do anything!” David held him tighter.

“No. I could’ve done something by killing those basturds sooner before they killed Aurora.” Jason Jason wails stopped as they turned into purring as he cuddled up to David who gave a smile to the two tailed cat.

“You had enough shrapnel in your leg to cripple someone for life! Your lucky that your mentor knew how to heal it!”

“I still did it after I saw her die. I could’ve done something, but I held on to the false hope of mom and dad seeing what they were doing.”

“I was hoping for that to, but some people can’t change! They abused you two for years after you guys became Mediums! They didn’t lay a finger on me, nor was I affected by the explosions! I could’ve done something... ANYTHING!!!”

“I know, I wish that I could save her after what they did, but no one can come back from getting an entire magazine of AK bullets slam into their backs at point blank.” Jason lowered his head and buried it into the chest of the apathetic human. David’s normally stoic face was damp from crying for a while and he was showing signs of a smile before it returned to his neutral expression. “We shouldn’t bother those with our problems. I know your hungry and we haven’t eaten in two weeks so let’s eat before we do anything... okay.”

The two tailed cat nodded and hopped onto the table before wiping his eyes with a paw to keep the remaining tears from falling. “Okay, David. Let’s eat.” Jason went back to his perch on Fluttershy’s head which was disturbed by the mares rush to see if the human was alright.

“Wow, I’m surprised that you handled that like an adult. Most would suffer in self pity so others can take care of it. You also looked like you raised Jason like a father.” Celestia said with a smile.

“True. After my school was boomed, I was blamed because I fled the seine and I was the only one alive. Jason came with me and we did everything we could while on the run. He would stay in our hideout while I... retrieved food and water so we could go on our way. I actually found this jacket in a ditch during our first winter on the run.”

“Why didn’t you stay?” Twilight asked in confusion.

“Easy, I had blood on my hands... literally. If the police say me like that; I would’ve been sent to prison immediately.”

They stopped as the food was served to them which consisted of fruits, vegetables, hay, and grass. David said nothing as he took fruits and vegetables along with a flowerless salad. He didn’t complain and actually disregarded all modesty in favor of getting as much food into his stomach as possible. Jason was doing the same as he noisily ate all his food which consisted of fruits and cat food. They didn’t care how it tasted as long as they got the food into them.

“Couldn’t you have used some table manners while you were eating?” Rarity asked in disgust as she recoiled from the sight.

“Like I said...” David paused to practically shove an orange slice into his mouth. “We haven’t eaten anything in two weeks...” he took a large gulp of water from the glass in front of him. “Not a single crumb.” He finished off the rest of his food in an instant while Jason was rubbing his bloated belly in satisfaction.

“That was so good!” Jason smiled with a bit of drool falling from his mouth as he was imagining what good food tasted like here. “But I doubt we could do that again.” Jason poked his enlarged stomach while Fluttershy poked him in it as well.

Jason giggled childishly at the unintentional tickling. Fluttershy tickled him relentlessly as he squealed in laughter from Fluttershy’s assault against his belly. The shy mare tried to pull her hand away, but it was grabbed by Jason who allowed himself to be lifted by the animal lover.

“I guess with this as a fitting end to an already eventful day, we should go to bed to sleep off the fatigue.” David said as he prepared himself to walk out the door. “Jason, do you want to stay with Fluttershy or come with me?”

“I’m feline lazy, so I’ll stay with Ms. Fluttershy.” Jason responded with a cheeky smile while David deadpanned at the black cat. Most couldn’t tell the difference between his normal look and this one.

“That was a bad pun and you should be ashamed.” David left and was followed by the same two guards who guided him to the dining room.

The doors closed with a resounding light boom from the large crystal doors. Cadence looked at the rest with amazement at seeing what they just saw.

“Is anyone else amazed at what they saw?” Nods and sounds of agreement could be seen or heard by the pink alicorn. “Does he normally show this much emotion with you Jason?”

“...”

“Jason?”

The occupants of the room looked at the now sleeping cat who was being cradled in Fluttershy’s arms.

“Oh... I’m sorry. Was I not supposed to help him sleep?” Fluttershy asked in a meek tone while hiding behind her hair.

“No... no you didn’t do anything you weren’t supposed to. There was no need to apologize.” Cadence said with a smile aimed towards the sleeping cat.

“If it makes you feel better Cadence, I’ll search his memories for anything alarming. He sounds genuin and Jason seems to agree with him on somethings. But I suspect that that was all he’s not telling everything.” Luna said which got a nod from everyone else except for one.

“Isn’t that an invasion of privacy?” Fluttershy asked unsurely. “We could risk our friendship with him.”

“It’s only for to night and I’ll make triple sure that I won’t be caught.” With that, she teleported out with a pop and a gust of wind.

“I guess we should all go to bed.” Twilight said before seeing Pinkie Pie still sitting at the table while playing with what little food was left on her plate. “Are you alright Pinkie?”

“Sort of. I’m just waiting for the author to learn how to write my lines correctly.” She said with her trademark smile.

Twilight was about to ask her what she was talking about before a voice spoke out of nowhere. “Dammit Pinkie! I’ve told you before chapter one not to break the fourth wall. I don’t have a job that I can go to and just got my damn learners permit. I can’t afford to rebuild it a second time.” The sound of glass shattering in reverse echoed throughout the room. Everyone were shocked to hear the omnipotent being that was writing down the events for a story.

“Well sorry grumpy pants.” The sound of glass shattering was heard once again.

“YOU FUCKING BITCH!!!” A slap could be heard.

“No cursing!” An older male yelled.

“Sorry dad.” The author made himself visible to glare at her. “Don’t. Break it. Again. I don’t have the money to repair it and this is the second freebie I’ll get. I have one more... ONE MORE! Don’t waste it.” He pauses and smiled at the pink mare. “See you in the authors notes.” He disappeared with the same sound of glass shattering in reverse echoing through the room.

“That was weird.” Rainbow said while scratching her head.

“No, he’ll most likely wipe your memory of the events from you minds so you won’t mention it to the protagonist. That will start in five... four... three... two... one.”

All was quiet in the castle late in the night while most guards decided to pull a prank on two of the sleeping occupants in the castle. More specifically, the human and a princess.

All was peaceful and quiet until, “STOP!!! THIEF!!!” Twilight yelled as a hooded figure ran throughout the castle and into a mirror, but Twilight tackles her just before the thief just before going through. She saw a red and yellow mane and a yellow coat.

“WHAT THE HELL/HAY!!!” Two specific ponies and person yelled as they woke up and were trying to figure out what happened.

Chapter 3

“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.

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.
