7 ½ Years later
A grown teenage version of Solo Level was staring at the sea in a wetsuit, and his wings hidden inside it. (“I’ve matured over the years & kept my abilities in the last & a half years. I had to limit myself with my dungeon exploring since my folks insisted that they do the fighting from now on, except I was the only one who can gather Dungeon Keys to open a Gate for them to fight monsters and collect the loot. Thus shown that I had freed rights to accompany them, we struck a deal that I can go solo on my birthday & earn the freedom at the age of 15. Throughout the years; Celestia gave me a scholarship to her Magic School but was expelled on my 1st day after clobbering some spoil rich students after they harassed some students who earned a scholarship instead of their parents paying for it. One student from that school hated me for not only stealing the book she was reading but using it as a weapon to hurt other ponies & got blood on it that stain the pages. What a book humper. One day, she’ll see there’s more to life than books & dumbass studying. After my expulsion, I unleash my rage on those bribed judges who were hoping that I would fail since I couldn't tell a fake egg from a real one. My folks weren't that shocked that they would accept bribes to prevent commoners and non-residents from entering their school in a wealthy city. I made a reputation of hatred, created a criminal record as I escaped, stole a real dragon's egg and trampled some rookie guard who was so proud of his barrier magic. His name didn’t reflect on his profile, he has some rust on that armor name of his. After that unfortunate event I created, my daily quests changed from education to exercise demands. If I don’t complete the tasks on the daily quest; I get sent to a desert hell infested with gigantic centipedes as a punishment and had to survive. I nearly got eaten by them if I wasn’t lucky to be born with wings. Celestia discovered my expulsion and violent assault as I explained the truth about those bribe judges and corrupt headmaster about their plan to get common and non-residents to hatch a fake dragon egg. Celestia felt even more hurt by the officials, she assigns to teach the young generation. Celestia decided to let me keep the dragon egg, but I decided to hatch it without magic and let time help it, the natural way. I let my folks knew the egg as they immediately wanted to raise it but decided if any of the dragons residents at home wanted it, to be fair (They all refused because some already had eggs and some couldn’t handle parenthood) We raised it like our and hatch out a baby dragon girl with White cat's eye moonstone gemstone scales and Cobalt eyes. She was named Azza for looking coldhearted but was cute at a youthful age. I’d visit Celestia about it, and she informed me that Azza is an Ice Dragon which surprised her that she never seen an Ice Dragon in her centuries as a princess. She informed me that Azza needs to live in a cold environment but it would take weeks to get to the northern area of Equestria, so I used my shop from my phone to buy a fridge and a larger cooler as her bed and mobile home. After the years; I increased my level & my skills through E-Rank Dungeons but my folks had to take my dungeon keys to D-Rank to C-Rank Dungeons because I was only seven years old, at least they let me mine the Mana Crystals & I secretly kill some monster that my folks didn’t notice or tried to eat me. At least I earned a new title through the years.

[Title: Miner]
A title given through a collection of minerals beneath the planet’s crust. 15% Increase in collecting rare minerals & 10% increase in mining speed.

At least Tuffy will enjoy having a mining partner of a varied species, at least he won’t threaten to rip the throat of those who would try to steal gems from them and betray his trust. Tuffy was a bit of buff up since the pass seven years & he was given a vacation from his brothers because they care about him, and he worked too hard.”)

At the Beach
Solo was watching the waves as he was sitting under a beach umbrella with Azza (Age: 7) sitting in a large cooler with wheels filled with ice and drinks next to him. “I didn’t know how boring beaches were, I guess the world without GATES shows how important they are.” Said Solo as Azza was in a girl’s bathing suit wearing a sunhat.

“Solo. I see only why you hate ponies outside the village. They’re lazy, fat turds.” Said Azza as Solo patted her on the head.

“It’s true. So don’t say it to their faces until you’re a teenager.” Said Solo as he patted Azza on the head as he turned to the west side of the ocean to see their parents making out.

“BLECK!” Said Azza.

Solo then turned to the east to see Sky (Age 13) was playing with some teenage fillies who won’t get hit on by idiot teenage colts after Mom threatened to neuter them if they try to touch her daughter in the wrong places. Solo sighed as he noticed an angry Chihuahua in a pair of pants, and a vest, marching towards Solo. “Hey Tuffy, what’s wrong?” He asked

“Tuffy is unhappy that the ground is too soft to dig.” Said Tuffy as he under the umbrella and looked at Azza. “Hi Azza. Can I have my bowl?” Azza pulled out Tuffy’s bowl, opened a bottle of water and poured it for him.

“Here you go, Tuffy.” Said Azza as Tuffy lick his water to cool down.

“Thank you. Tuffy is bored with the beach. Tuffy wants to go somewhere to dig.” Said Tuffy as Solo remember what he saw before coming here.

“I believe I could take you to an island where you could dig for possible riches.” He said as Tuffy wagged his tail.

“Tuffy would like that if there are no girl ponies that squeal when they see Tuffy.” He said as Solo looked at him.

(“So seeing cute dogs are still a thing to dames.”) Thought Solo as he looked at Azza. “Are you ok staying here and protecting our spot Azza?” Asked Solo as Azza nodded as he left with Tuffy.

“Bye!” Yelled Azza as a large muscular stallion came.

“Beat it brat! This is now my spot!” He said as Azza roared at him as she breathed blue fire at him, turning him into an ice sculpture, scaring off some ponies but some stayed to take some icicles for their drinks.

“Stupid head. Never underestimate an Ice Dragon.” Said Azza as she noticed a pony stallion in a swimsuit “What?”

“Can I have some ice, please?” He asked as he was holding a cup. Azza breathe some ice in her paws and place it in his cup “Thanks.”

Later
Solo rented out a boat as he & Tuffy rowed to an island where the ponies are pussies to go there. “Okay Tuffy, we’re here!” Said Solo as Tuffy jumped out & wiz on a tree.

“Ahhh… Tuffy needed that.” He said as Solo lifted the boat with his magic & placed it in his inventory as Tuffy looked amazed. “Is it your magic? Bo, Jelly & Tuffy always wonder what your magic is? What does your pony mark look like?” Asked Tuffy as Solo looked at him.

“No Tuffy. I still don’t have one, but I don’t care about it. I don’t care for what anyone says. I don’t care for one.” Said Solo proudly as Tuffy didn’t understand much but understood that Solo don’t have one.

“Okay, Tuffy will search for gems.” He said as he ran to the island’s jungle. Solo watched him as he decided to catch up on his reading.

One Hour Later
“Oh… Shield Hero. I hope that bastard of a king and bitch of a daughter. I can’t believe that that whore would get her younger sister killed to frame the Shield Hero.” Said Solo as he heard something in the jungle.

*HOWL*

“What the hell?!” Said Solo as he closed his book “TUFFY!!!” Yelled Solo as he charged in the jungle. He made it to the center of the jungle to discover some rocky structures with waterways of freshwater to see a race that he hadn’t seen in eight years; a race of Siren teenagers in swimsuits were holding Tuffy by his paws.

“*Snarl* Let Tuffy go!!” He yelled as he tried to break free. “HELP!!!” Solo turned to Tuffy as his horn glowed.

[Skill: Wormhole Warp]

Solo created a portal as he thrust his arm in it as another portal appeared above Tuffy “Huh?” An arm came out & grabbed Tuffy by his vest.

“*SCREAMING*” Yelled the Sirens as Solo pulled Tuffy out of the portal he created.

“Whoa… thanks.” Said Tuffy as the Sirens snarled at the intruders.

“Time to sing, girls!” Said one of the Sirens as they began to sing.

“Tuffy! Cover your ears!” Yelled Solo as Tuffy covered his ears.

[Skill: Barrier]

A dome of mana surrounded Tuffy & Solo. The Sirens’ singing couldn’t penetrate the barrier as Solo mocked them that they couldn’t hear anything as they stopped.

“What the… that’s IMPOSSIBLE!!!” Yelled one of the Sirens.

“We need the Guardian!” Said the 2nd Siren.

“~HELP!!!~” They said in song as something or someone burst out of the freshwater. Solo & Tuffy turn to see a grown Silver-gray Siren teenager in an exotic designer bikini wielding a trident.

“Uh-oh.” Said Tuffy. The Guardian Siren spun her trident, pointed at them & fired an energy sphere at them. Solo created another barrier to hold it but shattered by the attack. Solo looked at the Guardian and smirked.

“Nice attack.” Said Solo. “Hide pal. I’ll hold her off.” Tuffy dug a hole & tunnel himself underground. “Now Miss…”

“I don’t give my name to intruders.” She said as Solo summon a Bo Staff & pointed it at her.

“Honestly, I have never met a creature who has courage to fight against me before.” He said,

“It’s because you ponies always go to your princess like a baby.” She said as Solo laughed.

“Very creative insult.” Said Solo as he cracked his neck. “Bring it on!”

The Beach of the Island
Tuffy dig himself out of the sand & shake the sand off his fur. “*growl* TUFFY HATES SAND!!!” He said as he removed his collar & shook the sand from it. “Tuffy needs to get help!” He saw the shore “Where the fucking boat?!” He yelled as he saw a larger Navy-Blue Siren in an elegant gown made for the water, emerging from the sea. “Oh no, not another Siren!” The Larger Siren looked insulted by Tuffy.

“How insulting! I don’t know who you are but…” She stopped & took a closer look at Tuffy “Wait… Tuffy?! Is that the little cute puppy-wuppy from the town of United!!” She yelled in happiness as Tuffy was insulted.

“Don’t call me that Miss… huh? Miss Sea Harp?” She nodded happily as he looked horrified. “Wait… is Jelly on this island?!”

“Of course she is. She’s grown as one of the guardians of our Siren Pod.” She said proudly as Tuffy turned to where he fled.

“Uh-oh.” Said Tuffy as Sea Harp looked confused by his expression.

“What do you mean ‘uh-oh’?”

Solo was brawling against the self-proclaimed Siren Guardian as he met his equal. The Siren Guardian spun her trident and charged it. “I was once a weak Siren but now; I’m a grown woman.” Solo didn’t look impressed.

“Meh… I’ve known a Siren & honestly; she’s way better & hotter than you.” Mocked Solo as his horn charged with magic as she snarled at him.

“Prepare to go to the Abyss at the bottom of the sea.” She said as her gem shine.

“BRING IT!!!” Yelled Solo as he and her charged at each other and prepared to attack each other until…

“STOP!!!” They both turned to Tuffy & Sea Harp as they were panting.

“Jelly!! That’s Solo Level/ Solo!! That’s Jelly Lyric!!” They both screamed as Solo & Jelly looked shocked & turned to each other and stared into each other’s eyes.

“S-s-Solo?” Said Jelly with widened eyes.

“Jelly…” Said Solo as he looked at her. They both didn’t move as a phantom projection of themselves as children looking at each other. “Jelly… you’ve… grown… in… body and heart.” He said awkwardly.

“I… have.” She said while blushing “That Siren you spoke of… were you talking about… me?” She said while fidgeting.

“Uh…”

“SOLO!!!” Said Miss Sea Harp as she floated to them “It's been years since we’ve moved!!” She said as she noticed Solo’s new features. “I see a stallion has been getting in shape. Trying to impress a girl you’ve met or know?” Said Sea Harp as Jelly looked away as she covered her chest. “Is your family here?! I would love to talk with Red again!”

“At the beach.” He said as she looked unhappy.

“Not the beach near the island. Those lifeguard ponies couldn’t tell the dorsal fin of a shark & a dolphin. Can you tell them we’re here?” Asked Sea Harp. Solo nodded as he looked at Tuffy. “Come alone Tuffy.” Jelly looked shocked to hear that as they left.

“Tuffy?! He’s still cute.” She said quietly.

2 ½ Hours Later
Solo told his family about who he met when he left. At first, they were mad at first but learning that Jelly & her mom were near brought them joy. Huntsman & Red Rain were happy to see Sea Harp, introducing them to Azza as she breathed frigid air at Tuffy to keep him cool. Solo needed space from the happy reunion as he pulled out a key he bought from his shop; a key made of stone from the bottom of the sea.

[Item: Dungeon Key]
Item Class: C
A key that allows you to enter an Instant Dungeon. You may use this on shore near the ocean.

(“I could go to the dungeon but… I want to spend time with Jelly.”)

“Solo.” Solo hid his key in his inventory & turned to Jelly in overalls that were made to be waterproof. “Hi…”

“Hi…” Said Solo as he looked at her as she sat next to him.

“I’m… I’m sorry about… nearly killing you.” Said Jelly sadly.

“It's alright.” Solo answer “You were just protecting your pod.” He looked at Jelly to see that she changed over the years. “You’ve… change since we were young.” Jelly turned away blushing.

“So have you.” She said, “Have you… earned that mark your species are obsessed with?”

“No. I have no feeling for it.” Answered Solo.

“Oh… can you tell me about your abilities & magic?” Asked Jelly as Solo looked surprised “I… I haven’t forgotten what you did for me at Canterlot. You protected from those jerks and that mean guard, I… never stop seeing you as a hero. Can… you tell me about… the real you and that key?” Solo looked at her & closed his eyes.

“Can you… handle the truth?” Asked Solo as Jelly looked at him.

“The truth?”

“The truth has blood and murder. I’ve killed monsters & kidnappers that tried to abduct Sky into slavery. I’m not a creature to be with.” Said Solo as Jelly grabbed his hand.

“Solo, to be honest. You scared the living shit out of me when we were young. The way you beat up those ponies to protect Sky and me, that would make me fear you for life but… I don’t care. You’re special to me.” She said proudly “Besides… I must admit that I’ve sunk the ships of hunters that were trying to harvest our Heart Gems. She said as Solo raised his brow.

“When did you get violent? Last time I remember, you were shy and nervous.” Asked Solo as Jelly looked furious.

“When my Pod Leader force arranged for me to marry a barnacle ridden Merpony stallion.” She said that Solo felt a tremendous amount of rage.”

“WHAT???” Said Solo as Jelly looked away in shame as Tuffy appeared, pulling the cooler with Azza in it.

“Hey buddies!” Yelled Tuffy as he noticed Solo looking angry and Jelly looked ashamed. “Uh… what happened here?” Asked Tuffy as Azza looked at them.

“Solo became a molester.”

“I HAVE NOT!” Yelled Solo.

Author's Note

To every reader who was wondering why I added an Ice Dragon? The reason; Its too common in stories to see dragons were breathing fire and I don’t know if I’ve seen or know if there are different kinds of dragons in stories on this website. So I made Azza, to spark creativity. Feel free to let me know if there are stories with different kinds of dragons, even hybrids. Also here’s a new info on Solo’s stats.
