Twilight and Whisper, Songbird, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie, Luster and the Doctor were in the Twilight’s room. Twilight sighed “Luster, I fear that you are no longer safe in Ponyville with protection.”

Luster's eyes widened “Does that mean have to return to Canterlot?”

Twilight turned to Whisper “I am appointing you as her bodyguard, you will get paid by the crown.” She levitated a small bag of bits “This will be your payment for the first week.”

Whisper was looking over herself, her syringe resting on her side covered in a glass case “Um where do I put this bag of bits?”

The Doctor frowned as he gave her a bag “This will help, also put your syringe in the bag. Your lucky that it didn’t break in the fight.”

Twilight frowned “You are the one who brought her here, can I be assured that you mean no harm to this realm? If you could bring them here from beyond my sight then I’m afraid nothing in our world could stop you.”

The Doctor smiled as he did the motions “I promise that I will not harm you or world, cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” There was look of shock from the ponies as the Doctor dissapeared from sight with a click of his fingers.

Rainbow frowned “I’m not sure this is a good idea, what if Whisper is our enemy that is pretending to work with us?”

Songbird shouted at Rainbow fury in her eyes “How dare you say that about my friend! She may have a bit of a temper but she would never do such a thing!”

Fluttershy stepped between them calmly “We are not going to fight here, this isn’t going to get either of you anywhere. All I know is to put faith in Twilight, she knows what she is doing.”

Whisper took the bag putting it in her bag alongside her syringe, she bowed “I won’t fail you. I swear on my life that I protect you student from any threats that may come.”

Applejack smiled “Ah’m glad your taking on this duty” she then growled “I can’t believe there are creatures out there willing to disrupt the peace and harmony we have created for everyone!”

Pinkie frowned “Applejack, let’s keep calm in face of adversity. We have overcome greater threats before but this time we have the final say, our days of heroism are far from over.”

Songbird teleported in front of them grinning madly “Sounds like an adventure, this will be fun!”

Twilight smiled “Well, with that said I believe you should return to Ponyville.”

Discord turned up and scooped Fluttershy up. He then shouted as he leapt into a portal “Let’s go Fluttershy! Geronimo!”

Luster smiled “Farewell Princess, I’ll be sure to write.” Rainbow, Applejack and Pinkie Pie stayed behind to talk to Twilight while Luster, Whisper and Songbird left Twilight’s room. Luster frowned “What was that ability you used against Princess Twilight?”

Whisper grimaced “I’m not actually sure what it’s called but it made me stronger and harder to hurt. I wish I knew more about my powers.”

Songbird smiled “Well with the personal student of the Princess I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Come on we should head back to Ponyville, meet some of the locals.”

Before they could say a word an older stallion with a white coat and blonde mane approached them with a frown “Luster Dawn, I request you come with me. These two creatures are not worthy company of Princess Twilight’s personal student.”

Before either of them could rebuke him a dark blue glow lifted him up in the air. A dark blue mare with a golden mane approached with a smile”Forgive my father’s foolishness, I am Bluebelle Shine but please call me Shine.”

Luster smiled “I’m glad you have some common sense” she then glared at the stallion hovering in the dark blue glow “unlike your father who is a pretentious bigot.”

Shine shook her head as she tossed her father into a trash can “Too many pony’s compare me to Princess Luna and my Cutie Mark doesn't help.” She moved her skirt slightly to show them a white glowing moon surrounded by twinkling stars that stood out on against her dark blue fur.

Whisper blushed as her eyes wandered the soft curves of the mare’s flanks “Um, is that normal here?”

Songbird raised an eyebrow at the two mares not noticing Whisper’s obvious blush “I’m not sure about here but where I come from nudity is quite a taboo.”

Luster raised an eyebrow “Didn’t you notice that the ponies in Ponyville weren’t actually wearing clothes, it’s not a necessary thing in most small towns. I only where clothes because I come from a bigger city where you are expected to wear clothes.”

Whisper blinked “I did not pay that much attention to them to be honest, I was still adjusting to being in another world.”

Shine laughed “I may actually accompany you to Ponyville, I could use some time out of the big city and away from my father” she then frowned “He watches me like a hawk in Canterlot but he won’t dare try to oppose me outside of the city.”

Songbird grinned “Well let’s go.” The four purchase their tickets and then get on the first train to Ponyville, Songbird was humming as Whisper sat there with her eyes closed a faint red glow flowing around her body.

Shine raised an eyebrow “What is Whisper doing?”

Luster frowned “She’s mediating, I did it a lot to help centre my magic and get a feel for it when I was under Twilight’s tutelage. She is likely trying to understand her own powers better.”

Whisper began to glow brighter and brighter Songbird turned to her only for a massive flash of light to fill the carriage. Whisper was now sitting there in pony form but not like the anthromorphic ponies on the train. Her four hooves were resting as she sat in a similar position to a dog, her wings flared out with a horn sitting atop her head. On her flank was a military helmet with a bloody circle around it, Whisper frowned as she looked over herself “Filtering through memories sucks.”

She then focused transforming back into her human form, Luster shouted “What was that!”

Whisper grimaced “I was displaced as a being that has a human form and a quadrupedal pony form. They were originally pony but that doesn't matter, I will do what I was tasked with.”

Songbird blinked “Can I do that too?”

Whisper nodded “Yes, those memories are strange and I still will need to meditate more to make sense of all of it.”

Shine laughed “Well it seems like you have met some very interesting individuals, it makes me more excited to spend some time in Ponyville.” The rest of the trip was silent as they returned to the small town.
