I awoke from my unconsciousness with a sharp pain in my head. I was in my bed! My parents were not in my room, but they shouldn't have needed to be there for when I woke up. I looked at a clock on the wall that had just passed seven o'clock. I didn't know if it was the next morning, or the same day. I was soon to find out as I struggled out of bed. I was in agonising pain, but that didn't stop me. I sat up on my bed first, aching from the beating that I had taken, and used my forehooves to pull myself off the bed. The pain was horrible, but I had to cope with it.

I stood up and immediately winced at my left hindleg. I had to lift it up to avoid it hurting so much. I couldn't walk on it, so that ruled out some of my plans. I gingerly walked over to my window and pulled open the curtains. I hadn't changed into my other form, because I was hurting too much. I peered around carefully as I looked into the sky. It was slowly turning darker, meaning that it still was the same day. I closed the curtains and slowly hobbled across and out of the room. I opened my wings to carefully hover down the stairs. My wings were super stiff, but I could still use them, it would just ache more. I reached the bottom of the stairs and didn't even attempt to land. The thought of going through as much pain as I had originally did, was the last thing I wanted. I continued to hover and peaked around the corner.

Shadow was working in the kitchen and Copper was sat on the sofa, watching the TV. I hovered up to him and smiled. He looked at me with a little shock, but then found a comforting look to warm my heart.

"You're quite the resilient one, aren't ya?" Copper spoke softly, having a little unsteadiness in his voice. This might have been because he had several bottles of alcohol on the floor. Most of them were empty, but a couple were unopened. I landed on the floor softly and lifted my left hindleg off the floor. I then looked at it, as I continued into the kitchen. I didn't dare sit down, as the pain was still in my mind of my leg hurting too much. Instead, I tapped Shadow on the side, with my magic. She turned and smiled.

"You feeling better then Blitz?" She asked, wearing a scared look on her face. I nodded and that completely wiped the scared look off of her face. She looked at my leg, lifted off the ground and scowled. "You've fractured your leg!" She blurted out, while I was looking for something to eat. I turned to look at her, wearing a blank expression. She smiled. "Don't look at me like that!" She commanded. I chuckled in response to her.

It was an hour since I had woken up. I was downstairs, watching TV, or trying to at least. Shadow and Copper had gone upstairs and I had an idea of what they were doing. A mixture of noises rang out through the floor and entered the room where I was, drowning out the noise of the TV. It was getting a bit much, so I did the only thing I could, I got up and hovered up the stairs. I came to the door and turned around, a little angry that I had to do this. I used my good hindhoof to buck open the door. I wasn't surprised to find Copper and Shadow doing some love making of their own.

Copper tried to cover up what he was doing and Shadow turned her head around to see me stood there. Shadow smiled, probably still in bliss as she has her tongue draping over the side of her maw.

"Dad… stop! You don't need to cover yourself. I saw more action happening in the hive, than you have here. I don't care if you two are having sex! It's just can you keep it down? I can't think or hear the TV with you two moaning." I stated. Shadow smiled and nodded. Copper did the same, still not uncovering his private area. I didn't care about anything sex related. It was natural to have feelings for another, enough to get your privates out and interlock with your significant other. It made me chuckle when I thought about it being like a gun. You had to put a magazine into the allotted hole, to make it work, or in this case, fire! I looked back at Shadow and smiled.

"Thank you son! Best son!" Shadow drunkenly stated, still being in a bliss type of moment. They were both intoxicated! My mother in love and my father in alcohol. Great! I turned and hovered back down the stairs and flew onto the sofa again. I was able to lie down, but only in a specific position, so that I didn't lie down on my leg. I scrolled through the channels and stumbled across most colts wet dreams. Porn channels, or chatline channels featuring hot mares and stallions. I didn't have much opinion on these channels. They were here for lonely mares or stallions wanting phone sex. I quickly scrolled past them all, none of them appealing to me whatsoever.

I was the type of pony or changeling that just wanted somepony to be there for me, lovingly of course, but I wasn't too big on having sex with anypony. I was probably too young to be thinking about these things, but I wasn't a normal colt. I was a young changeling! A young changeling with pony features. I pondered that for a minute, while looking around for a little mirror of some sort. I found one in the kitchen and then brought it to my face with my magic, while staying on the comfort of the sofa.

I looked into it and saw that there was little change I had to a normal changeling. I had developed coloured eartips and the end of my horn also had the same idea. I had blue eyes, which came from my father having blue eyes and also my mother having dark green eyes. I wasn't sure that my eyes were one hundred percent blue, but it was very prominent showing it off. My mane and tail were still like a normal changeling's, but it was super bright. Again, my mane and tail was also blue. I was just a blob of blue and black, until I changed into somepony else that is.

I looked at the TV and settled on watching a documentary on pony life. If I was wanting to blend in, I would want to know more about pony kind. I left the TV on the channel and then turned to look back at the mirror. All of the marks and cuts on my face, made me look more like a normal changeling. The evil creatures that wanted to enslave ponykind, or so they were depicted as. I just wanted to live a normal life, but if what happened today kept happening, then I probably wouldn't see my life's long haul. I wanted to do something about all of this. I had to do something about this. Sat up and grabbed a towel from the kitchen and rolled it up before putting it into my muzzle, to avoid me biting myself and muffle the screams I was about to have. I grabbed my left hindleg with my magic and then pulled it. It hurt really bad, but it needed to be done. Well, it didn't really, I just wanted to try something. I didn't work!

I winced in pain as I tried to increase my pain tolerance, but it didn't work, at least that's what I thought. I needed to build up my strength somehow. I would probably want to start doing this at my age just to allow myself some opportunity to adapt to everything, by becoming stronger. I put the mirror back into the kitchen and continued to watch the documentary on pony life. It was interesting to see all of the ponies and their historical factors. I enjoyed learning, so this was inspiring for me.

I turned off the TV and headed upstairs. I flew to the top of the stairs and looked into my mother and father's room. I saw something terrible but lovely at the same time. They were asleep, which was the lovely part, but my dad, was visibly still inside Shadow. They must have fell asleep in the afterglow of their time. I didn't care too much. They loved each other, that's all that mattered. I loved them for that! The perfect couple, one from ponykind, the other from the pony's enemy's side. I walked into the room, ignoring the lewd scene before me and pulled the blanket over both of them with my magic. I kissed my father on the head, then followed it up with a kiss to my mother's head. She responded by cuddling Copper more, which was a bonus for Copper I guessed. I flew to the door and closed it behind me. I smiled as I flew to my bedroom and lied down on my bed. I rested my head on my pillow and closed my eyes, hoping that I could bring justice on those ponies who hurt me today.

I had to walk to school with my busted up leg. I was escorted by Shadow this time, due to Copper getting up and going to work earlier today. I was still battered and bruised from yesterday, but Shadow and I didn't care. We just wanted to get to the bottom of this. Everypony looked at me and just… stared. I felt like an outsider again, but due to my injuries, I didn't worry about it. I had other matters to attend to.

"I'd like to talk to the Headmare of the school." Shadow stated, looking angrily at one of the teachers. She signalled for us to both follow her, again. Shadow looked back at me and smiled. "We're gonna get to the bottom of this son. One way or another!" Shadow convinced me, with a smile. I nodded before looking around at all of the parents, fillies and colts looking at me. I could hear the whispers of different conspiracies, like my parent beating me or something like that. Also, conspiracies like forcing their child to fight, or even their parents don't care about what they do. That got me angry.

We reached the Headmare's office and thanked the teacher for her assistance. Shadow looked at me, before knocking softly on the Headmare's door. She opened it with a casual smile as she looked at Shadow and then she looked down at me and froze, changing her smile for a worried look.

"B...Blitz! What happened to you?" She stuttered, looking at my form. I didn't meet her eyes. Instead, I looked at the floor, hoping that she would sort this out quicker, just so that I could get on with my day. The Headmare told us to enter her office and we entered the office without hesitation. Shadow sat in a chair and I sat on another. The Headmare closed the blinds on her window and sighed. I looked at Shadow with hope that we could do this quickly. She met my gaze and hushed me. That made me smile.

"I'm going to try to connect to you more by being my normal self. None of this 'I've done this, I've done that' malarkey. Just pretend like I'm one of your friends, one of your mates." The Headmare stated softly, taking a seat in her chair.

"O… ok then!" I stated, sounding a little surprised that she wanted to try to connect with me. "I was walking home, alone, and these ponies approached me. They were wearing different types of clothing, mainly ones with hoods. They said that they were beating me up to make me feel worse and to welcome me to the town." I stated, looking over at Shadow. She nodded and then I looked back at the Headmare. She pondered that for a moment before raising a hoof up.

"Did the ponies look older than you?" The Headmare asked, looking at me like she knew something. I nodded and then she rubbed her chin with a hoof. "Right! You two stay here quick. I'm going to gather the ponies that wore hoodies. Just to reassure me, they consisted of two unicorns and a pegasus right?" She added, questioning me further. I nodded with a little smile. She wore an angry look, but didn't want me to notice it. "One second please!" She stated, opening the door in front of her and then storming through it, swiftly closing the door behind her.

The Headmare came back minutes later, with the ponies that hurt me. They realised who I was and looked at me with angry looks. They all lined up next to the wall in the Headmare's office and scowled. She grabbed a ruler with her magic and slammed it against the table, scaring not only me, but also the three ponies and Shadow as well. The ruler snapped from the force that was put into slamming it onto the table.

"You three were on your last warning and you just blew it! You have given me no choice but to do one thing. You're all expelled! Exiled from this school for all that you have done!" She roared, looking angrily at them. One of them looked at me and Shadow, followed by the other two. Shadow sensed something was going to happen, then got up and guarded me. The hive said she was one of the best at what she did, so I knew that I was well protected, only… she couldn't use her magic, nor could she fly.

One of the unicorns looked over at the Headmare and lashed out for her, she reacted by moving back and pinning the unicorn to the wall with her magic. The other unicorn picked up the ruler, or what remained of it and struck the Headmare, making her drop the unicorn. They all turned to me and Shadow. Shadow kept her hindleg on my chest and pushed me back a little. I charged up my magic, just incase my mother was to fall. I needed to charge my magic to make my spells ten times more effective and powerful. The original burns I inflicted on them, were not even charged.

The pegasus launched himself at Shadow, which she immediately grabbed the pegasus with her muzzle, before spinning around and throwing him against the wall. That stunned him slightly, allowing her to shift her focus on another target. Next was the one of the unicorns! She ran up to him with some force and pinned him against the wall before grabbing him with her mouth and throwing him against my side of the room. He hit the wall with a loud 'thump' and crashed against the floor. I was not in a state to fight, but I kept my eyes on Shadow, just in case she needed the help. She looked at the pegasus, who got up and charged at her. The unicorn pinned her up against the wall and was about to grab the ruler again to hit her with it, before I released the charged shot I was holding. I released a bolt of lightning at the unicorn, which shocked him badly, as if he got shot by a bolt of… what I shot him with. He screamed with agony and turned to look at me. His eye twitched with anger as he threw the ruler at me, the broken point enterex past my fur and penetrated my body. It penetrated just below where my wings were. Luckily, not my wings.

Shadow screamed out as she used her magic to pull the unicorn off her and pinned him to the floor. She spawned an anti magic ring to place on the unicorn's horn and did the same to the other one. She used a healing spell on the Headmare and looked her dead in the eyes. The Headmare looked at me and got up instantly, then ran over to me. Shadow did the same, changing her appearance to have a horn, trying to play this off. Some more ponies came in and tried to help us. They constantly administered a special healing spell that repaired my wound for the most part, but it left a mark that would eventually be covered over by my fur. After about fifteen minutes, all of the ponies had left, taking the 3 ponies with them. They were going to a very, very bad place.

Shadow was helping the Headmare put all of the things in her office back. I was just sat down, trying to recover from what had just happened. The Headmare kept looking at me and Shadow and kept sighing.

"Thank you so much for this… umm, I never got your name." The Headmare stated, making Shadow turn to her.

"I'm Shadow!" Shadow announced proudly, fixing a painting to the wall, so that it was not tilted. She then went up to see me.

"How you doing Blitz?" Shadow asked. I smiled at her, which was the only answer she needed. We both moved the chairs and sat on them both, watching as the Headmare mimicked us, on the opposite side of the table.

"So… how was it that you could use magic, without a horn and now have a horn?" The Headmare asked, slightly confused. Shadow looked at me and sighed, admitting defeat of being found out.

"If I show you, can you promise to not tell anypony? Also, we need to close and lock the door and also close the blinds, so that nopony can see!" Shadow commanded. The Headmare wasted no time in closing the door and locking it, followed by the blinds being closed. She then used her magic once more, to turn on the lights, so that everything was bright. She nodded.

"After all that happened, I kind of owe you for the help." She said with a smile. Shadow got up and walked a little back. She lost her disguise and smiled at the Headmare. The Headmare didn't look worried at all! She was really calm about the situation.

"Blitz, may I ask if you are a changeling too?" The Headmare asked, a soft smile on her face. I got out of the chair and changed, just like my mother had done and revealed my normal self. The Headmare got up and slowly walked up to me, Shadow keeping her eye on the Headmare. "I've seen you before, changeling I mean." She said, looking at Shadow. She looked down at me and smiled with a little concern. "But I have never seen a pony and changeling hybrid." She admitted.

I looked at Shadow worryingly, and Shadow opened her mouth to speak, before the Headmare cut her off. "I'm sorry if I make you feel a little uncomfortable. I really am! I only wish to have a look at you. You have my word that I won't tell a single soul!" She stated, looking from me to Shadow. Shadow smiled and then changed back to her earth pony form, without a horn. I changed shortly after and sat in the chair again.

"I'm happy to help you two in anyway I can!" The Headmare whispered, making sure that only we could hear her. Shadow chuckled.

"I think I'm going to like her!" Shadow said to me, before looking up to the Headmare and having a little chat. I smiled, before getting up and looking out the window, through the blinds. We had someone on the inside helping us. Our lives were becoming just that little bit easier.
