Chapters Sunlight Blaze, Odyssey of an Apprentice hero: Funny Shorts Volume 2
Short 2: Special Ogres and Oubliettes 1
[Evening, Flash’s Chamber]
Flash, Spike, Big Mac, Trixie and Sunlight Blaze where all reunited for another of their O&O plays.
“Alright, guys, said Spike, I will be the DM for tonight. Does everyone have their dices, sheets and costume?”
They told him they had everything they needed to play.
“Perfect, so, Let’s make a brief comeback on the last time you played, said Spike. Trixie, your character, a magician, named The Great and Powerful Phosphoris, almost died. But thank to Flash avatar, Sir Knightingale, a Rogue/Warrior, you got saved just in time.”
“This is the last time i fight an army of Skeletons alone” she said.
“Big Mac, said Spike, your character, Sir McBiggin, defeated a powerful Minotaur in hand to hand combat.”
“Eeyup” said Big Mac.
“And finally, said Spike, Sunlight’s Character, Sunblast, an Elemental Magician, friended a baby dragon.”
“And, don’t forget i am level 57” he said.
“Yes, you kinda got lucky in the battles, said Trixie. The Great and Powerful Phosphoris is just level 40, And Sir McBiggin is level 54”
“And mine is only level 45” said Flash.
“But, you forgot that he defeated with Mac most of the enemies you met, said Spike. Normal that him and Big Mac avatars levels are higher than yours. Oh, did i told you we will have a new player in our crew?!”
“What? Said Flash Who?”
“She will arrive soon, said Spike, just wait...”
“She? Asked Flash. Uh, i don’t know any girl outside of Trixie who play O&O...”
“Hi, guys” said Sunset, who was wearing a Sailor Moon like outfit.
Flash and Big Mac were voiceless. Sunlight, Trixie and Spike, who knew she would be the new player (since they are the ones who made Sunset interested), smiled.
“Yes, Sunset, here, recently get passionate of O&O, said Sunlight. I helped her with her costume, Trixie, with her character sheet and the basis. Spike him, is the one who included her in our group.”
“I would never have thought to see you playing Ogres and Oubliettes, said Flash. But i am glad you join us!!”
Sunset presented her character to the group. The name of her avatar was Princess Solaris. She was a warrior/enchantres and a healer, attacker and deceiver. Her main weapon was a katana and her secondary weapon was a magical scepter. Spike put her character level 40, to make sure she would not be a dead weight to the group. After she finished, Spike prepared the board and started dthe game.
“Now, prepare to enter in the world of Ogres and Oubliettes!” said Spike
[In the world of Ogres and Oubliettes (Not literally, they will just interact with each other as their avatars, sure you get it)]
“Sunblast, asked Sir Knightingale/Flash Sentry. You are our leader, you decide where we have to go next?”
“Uh, There is a town not so far, at the North, he answered. We could probably get new quests here.”
“What is your definition of «Not so far?»” asked Phosphoris/Trixie
“30 Miles, answered Sunblast/Sunlight. This is not that far, we can make the way in a few hours”
“Why you don’t use your Teleportation Stone to get us in the town directly?” asked Phosphoris.
“The Stone can only teleport us to places we already visited” answered Sunblast.
“Oh, right, she said. Guess we will have to walk again, i am tired to walk!!”
“Is she always like that?” asked Solaris/Sunset.
“Yes, she always complain about almost everything who bother her, answered Sir Knightingale. You will get used to it...or not...”
“Uh, But Trixie...Uh...Phosphoris is right, said Sunset. Don’t we have a much faster way to travel?”
“We could use horses, answered Sunblast. But i find that weird...You know since, you know, we are also horses”
“Why that would be weird? We are different from them, said Sunset. But yes, i understand what you mean”
“About that, asked Trixie/Phosphoris, i was wondering. Do you and Sunlight can understand horse in our world? You know, since you are ponies.”
“I never tried, answered Sunlight/Sunblast. But i suppose we probably could be able to talk to your world horses.”
“I never tried too, answered Sunset. But that would worth trying”
“Enough speaking, said Sunblast. We have to move now. Nights in this region are a nightmare....”
The group started to walk until the night began to fall. They made a campfire and built their camp.
“No fire, said Sunblast. Monsters could be attracted by the light it will emit”
“But i am cold!!” said Trixie/Phosporis.
Sunlight casted on her a spell to keep her warm.
“You forgot i am a pyromancer, he said. Don’t worry for the cold, i got this.”
The group passed the night without any problems and the next day, they continued their way. Suddenly, while they were taking a shortcut, by passing trough a Forest, they were interrupted.
“What is the problem? Asked Flash. Why did you stop?”
For only answer, Sunblast told to him to lay down and threw a big ball of fire.The projectile hit something and a scream of pain followed.
“Damn it, said Flash. What was that?”
“We have to find the exit of this forest, and fast!” answered the leader.
“Why?” asked Trixie.
“Because we will soon get purchased by a bunch of...White Spiders!” he answered.
“I heard that their venom is deadly, said Flash. It can kill almost anything, even dragons and giants if they are many on one.”
“In that case, we should run!!!!” said Trixie.
The group started to run and they soon saw a hundred of these spiders chasing after them. Sunlight used his fire magic on them and killed a dozen of the creatures, But even with that, the spiders were gaining terrain on them.
“They are faster than us!! Said Flash. Sunblast, You have to teleport us away!!”
“But, if i do that, we will be back at the last town we visited!!” he answered.
“Where is Fluttershy when we need her!!! Said Sunset/Solaris. We definitively need an animal specialist in this team!!! If we make it, i will invite her to play with us!!”
“There is another way we can get out, said Sunlight. But it can be risky for us!”
“Speak!! Said Trixie. We have nothing to lose!!!”
“I will start an inferno!! He said. I will put the forest on fire. That will stop the White Spiders from chasing us!!”
“What about the animals living in?! Asked Sunset. Maybe the fire will kill a lot of spiders, but you will kill innocents creatures!!”
“Don’t be stupid, said Sunblast, these woods are cursed! There is no innocent wildlife in it, only monster!!”
“But why did you said that this idea was dangerous?!” asked Flash.
“We are in the forest too! He answered. If we don’t get out quick, we will be also trapped in the fire and you'll die!”
(Narrator) Will the group get alive out of this forest? Does the idea of Sunblast be fatal for our heroes? Stay tuned to discover it!

Chapter 3: A day at the beach.
[Sunlight’s room, Morning, Saturday]
Sunlight was in his room, in his bed, relaxing while watching a new episode of his favorite series.
”After finishing this episode, i am going to enjoy a little morning of video games” he said to himself.
But then, someone knocked at his door.
“Yes, who it is?” asked Sunlight.
“Your sister, Sunset Shimmer, answered Sunset. Have you forgot that today we are going at the beach?”
“No, i didn’t, he answered. I just don’t want to go at a beach, you know i hate dipping in cold water!”
“Come on, Sunlight, she said. You never want to go with us to any activities!”
“Not those who are water related!” shouted Sunlight.
“I knew you would say that, she said. This is why i persuaded many of my friends to wear a sexy bikini...”
“Do you take me for a pervert!?” asked Sunlight.
“Why would you not be one?” she answered.
“Alright, i will come at only one condition” said Sunlight.
“Uh, what it is?” asked Sunset.
“You and the other won’t force me to go in the water, he answered. I will stay on the sand and tanning, building sand castles, playing beach Volleyball and watching you dipping and splash each others....”
“Hum, fair enough, said Sunset. So, you will join us at the beach?”
“Let me prepare my stuff and i will join you later!” he answered.
“Okay, see you later!!” said his sister.
“Also, though Sunlight. I will use this time to work on my water and earth magic mastery”
Sunlight prepared his bags and then left his room to head to the garage. He took his customized motorcycle (since he got his license to drive one) and headed to the beach. He arrived and saw his friends waiting for him at the entrance.
“Hi, girls! Said Sunlight. Oh, you are pretty in these bikinis!”
“Wow, nice motorcycle!! Said Rainbow Dash. I love it!!”
“Thank, RD, said Sunlight. It cost me a lot but it was worth it. Well, now that i’m here, let’s go!!”
The group arrived at the beach. Suddenly, Fluttershy felt a little bit too observed and blush.
“Oh, all these look the guys are giving to me, she said. It make me so awkward”
“Not me, said Rainbow Dash, I don’t give a fuck about them looking at my ass.”
Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Sunset were the only girls who were not bothered by the attention. Suddenly, the group saw the principal Celestia, with her sister walking in their direction. They were also wearing Bikinis which obviously got the attention of many students and men on the beach.
“Oh, hi, Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna!” said the group of girls.
“Hello, girls, answered Luna. I am happy to see all of you at the beach.”
“And i see you convinced Sunlight to come, said Celestia. What did you have to do to convince him?”
“He came at the exception to not being forced to do water related activities” answered Sunset.
“Oh, too bad, said Luna. He will miss so much...”
“That doesn't bother me, said Sunlight. I am not a pervert, you know it.”
“Yes, we know, said Sunset. But that would be normal for a guy to be a little pervert.”
“I am not a normal guy, he answered. I am beyond sexual temptations, thank to my education and mental training”
“You need to enjoy the life, said Applejack. You need to release you inhibitions, not all the time, but occasionally.”
“Have you at least got fun once in your life?” asked Rainbow Dash.
“Honestly, no, i passed most of my time to study, learning and working hard to become what i am today. This is why i am smarter and stronger than all of you reunited, girls.”
“Stronger? Maybe, said Sunset. Smarter? Certainly not...”
“Well, if you look for me, he said. I will be tanning!!"”
He walked away from his friends.
“Sometimes, i hate this side of his personality, said Sunset. I hate this «I am too good for such vile things» attitude of him”
“I can relate to him, said Applejack. Me too i don’t like wasting my time with that kind of stuff. When you are living in a farm, you have not a lot of time to do anything else.”
“She is right, Sunset, said Twilight. Me too, i don’t like that. I was always in my books and studying to be the best.”
“You are right, said Sunset. I can’t be mad at him for acting like that. But i want him to have fun, to experiment what having real pleasure is.”
“Let’s stop talking, said Pinkie Pie, last in the water is a chicken!!!”
“Well, that won’t be me!!” said Scootaloo, already in the water.
Meanwhile, Sunlight, who found a spot where no one could see him, was practicing is magic. He was trying to bend water and shape it at will.
“I can do it, he thought, deeply concentrated. I can do it”
Sunlight shaped the ball of water he created into a cube, then a pyramid.
“Great, let’s try something else...” said the young man.
Sunlight focused this time his magic on the sand and tried to shape it into something. He failed lamentably but didn’t gave up. He tried a second time, then a third time. After a lot of attempts. He succeeded to shape the sand into a mini version of an octopus.
“I did it” he said, looking at the sky.
But while he was distracted, a small particle of magic coming from nowhere took possession of his sand creation.
“I think that will be enough for today, he said. I need to rest, and also, i am hungry. I heard that the beach have a mexican food truck”
He left the area, without noticing that the the sand creature he made disappeared under the ground with a malefic laugh. Meanwhile, Sunset and her friends were tanning on the beach. Sunlight joined them soon.
“So, how was the bathing?” he asked.
“Good, said Sunset. But it would have been better if you were with us.”
“I am sorry, he said. But until i don’t completely master water magic, dipping in cold water is too risky.”
“Yeah yeah, she said. You always find an excuse to avoid having fun.”
“This is not true, what about when i am gaming with you?” he asked
“Sure, but this is the only activity you want to do with me” she answered.
“Sunset...I...”
He is interrupted by people screams.
“What is that thing?” asked a guy on the beach
“It’s a monster!!! Run!!!” said a woman.
Sunlight looked behind him and saw a giant sand octopus terrorizing the people at the beach
“What the hell is that thing?” asked Rainbow Dash.
“Look for me like a giant sand octopus” answered Pinkie Pie.
“Where does he come from!?” asked Sunset.
”Is this the sand octopus i created? Thought Sunlight. It is, but how does it got so big?!”
“Whatever, said Applejack. Let’s just destroy that monster!”
The group Ponied-up and started attacking the sand monster. After a few minutes, the heroes retreated, seeing that the monster was too strong.
“My speed doesn’t affect this monster!” said Rainbow
“And this is hard to hurt something made of sand” said A.J
“We can’t damage him!” said Twilight.
“I have an idea, said Sunlight. I will bring him in the water.”
“Uh, good idea!! Said Twilight. I am ashamed i didn’t thought of it.”
“That's fine, Twilight, said Sunset. But how we will do that, Sunlight.”
Sunlight explained his plan to the group.
“Got it?” he asked.
“Got it!!” answered the others
“In that case, let’s do this!!” said Sunlight,
The group attacked the creature once again, but these time, they focused on distracting him. When this was done, Sunlight teleported Sunset on the head of the monster and this one touched him.
“What did you see?” asked Sunlight.
“Equestrian magic, she said. I see that this this is corrupted by Equestrian magic coming from a magic portal in a cave”
“Of course, he said. It’s always equestrian magic”
“But why did it took that form?” asked Sunset.
“My bad” answered her brother.
She touched her brother’s arm after landing on the ground.
“Now, i understand, she said. Your magic must have attracted the magic coming from this portal i saw while reading that monster's memories. And combined together, they formed that abomination.”
“Hey! He said. I shaped that «abomination», you know!!I am pretty proud of myself to have put such details in it!”
“Whatever, we have to shut down that magical portal first. Twilight taught me a spell who can do that. But i need you and my friends to put that thing in the water so when i shut down the portal, that creature turn into mud and die.”
Sunlight brought her to the spot he was sooner, then returned to help his friends. Sunset headed to the cave she saw in the monster memories. Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Twilight and Rarity were trapped in the monster’s tentacles
“Oh, i have seen enough hentai to know where this is going” said Pinkie Pie.
“Oh, fuck no!!! said Rarity, that fucking monster won’t touch me!!”
“Where is Sunlight?!” asked Twilight.
The monster was suddenly hit by water blades who cut his tentacles and released the group. The monster, furious, looked at the direction the attack came from. Sunlight was floating in the air, over the water, with a serious face.
“Let my friends alone, You bastard!” he said.
He created a dozens of water hooks and tentacles he used to grab the sand creature, bringing him near the water. The sand octopus attacked Sunlight in order to make him stop but this one avoided them.
“I am sorry, he said. But i won’t let you hurt my friends.”
He brought the monster in the water. This one began to turn into mud and screamed of pain, fear and rage. Sunlight didn’t let him go and held him underwater with his magic.
“Holy shit, said Rainbow Dash. I never thought he was this powerful!!”
“He was not lying when he said he was stronger than all of us” said Twilight.
A lot of people who didn’t leave the beach were looking at Sunlight with admiration and were cheering him. Among these persons were Celestia, Luna, Trixie, Flash Sentry, Octavia, Vinyl and Wallflower Blush.
Meanwhile, Sunset was arrived in the cave and was in front of the magic portal. She casted the spell, which took a few minutes to make effect and the portal shut down. Then, she ran outside of the cave and headed in direction of the beach. On his side, Sunlight was about to lose his focus.
”I don’t know how long i can hold” he thought.
Luckily for him, the sand octopus turned into an inanimate pile of mud and sank in the water. He teleported on the beach, before falling face first in the sand. His friends came to ge him back on his feet and the people on the beach started to applause him. Sunset finally arrived.
“So, you did it?” she asked to her friends
“He did it, said Applejack, pointing Sunlight. He took out that monster by himself.”
“Really, i need to see that by myself!” she answered, touching Sunlight’s arm.
She removed her hand from his arm and smiled at him.
“See, said Sunlight. This is why i pass so much time practicing my magic.”
“I get it, she said. And i am sorry if i was mad at you for that. If you listened to me and passed your time chilling and having fun, you would not have been able to take this monster out.”
“I am sorry too, he said. I will try to pass more time having fun. But now, i just need to rest...and eat...And also, pass the rest of the day with you...”
This is on this ambiance that the group spent the rest of the day having real fun
Author's Note
Sorry, that last short was longer than expected. I hope you will still enjoy it.
Sunlight Blaze, Odyssey of an Apprentice hero: Funny Shorts Volume 2
Short 1: Sunlight the Musician
That was one day like another, where our heroes, and Sunlight, where doing their things. Sunlight was watching the Rainbooms practice for a charity event where their group would be playing, and was enjoying the beat of their songs, especially two of them: Shake your Tail and Better than Ever.
“Wow, you sound so great!!! Said Sunlight to them. You are very talented!”
“Yeah, we are the best, said Rainbow Dash, this is not for nothing that we won the Battle of the Band by defeating the Dazzlings in an epic final showdown and that whenever Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna need a band to play at a charity event, they chose us. We are awesome!!!”
“What is she trying to say, said Applejack, is that our group is pretty much famous since the events of the Battle of the Bands. Rainbow Dash plays electric guitar, Sunset is the lead singer and also plays electric guitar, Fluttershy plays Tambourine, Pinkie Pie plays drum, Twilight is the second lead singer, Rarity plays Keytar and me, i am the bass.”
“Hum, each of you have an important role in this group, said Sunlight. I didn’t told you before, but i was thinking of trying music.”
“Really?” said Rainbow Dash.
“I even asked to every person in the school who was leader of a band, he said. Including Trixie and Flash. But they all told me that they didn’t need more members.”
“Not everyone, said Sunset. There is still our group!!”
“Are you sure, Sunset? Asked Dash. We are kinda professional, you know”
Sunlight was about to ask to join their group, but stopped after she said that. Rainbow Dash was right, he was not good at music, in fact, he didn’t even have is own instrument to begin with.
“What is the problem with that? Said Sunset. He can join us even if he is not that good, i will personally teach him how to play if he need practice”
“Well, Told me Sunlight, asked Rainbow Dash. Are you good or bad at playing an instrument? Uh...Sunlight?”
“Uh, girls, said Fluttershy, he is gone...”
Sunlight was effectively gone.
“We have to find him” said Sunset.
On his side, Sunlight was actually inside a store who was selling music instruments. He was searching for an instrument he would be good at and asked Vinyl if he could try them before buying.
“Hum why not, said Vinyl, First let’s try the guitar”
Sunlight took one of them and started playing. He was doing great, but the group had already two guitarist. So, he tried on other instruments the Rainbooms were not playing. He tried the maracas, the xylophone, the piano, the saxophone, the flute, the triangle and even the violin (on which he was so bad that Octavia slapped him, shocked.)
“No, No, No!!!! He said. None of these instrument have their place in a rock band. I could still take the guitar, but the Rainbooms already have two of them, my sister and Rainbow Dash, who are way too talented compared to me. And the bass, the drum, the Keytar and the Tambourine are already taken by the others. Think Sunlight, think!! There is maybe an instrument you neglected!!”
Vinyl was ignoring him, listening her music. Then, suddenly, Sunset and her friends entered in the store and saw Sunlight turning in circles, talking to himself. He was looking pissed and stressed
“There you are!!! Said Rainbow Dash. We were searching for you!! I should have realize sooner that you would be here!”
“Why are you here, anyway?” asked Sunset.
“To buy an instrument, Duh” he answered.
“And, Asked Applejack. Have you found an instrument you are good at?”
“Well, i am pretty good with the electric guitar” he said.
“That’s great!!, said Sunset. But why are you so upset?”
“I am not upset! He answered. I just...Urgh...i don’t know how to say it to you....”
“You won’t have to tell us” said Sunset
She hugged Sunlight, and by the same occasion, used her magic to read in his memories.
“I understand” said Sunset to him.
“What is the problem, then? Asked Rainbow Dash. Explain us, Sunlight, or Sunset...”
“Fine, i will told you why, said Sunlight. I was about to ask you, sooner in the day, to join the Rainboom. But you then said something that made me doubt and panic. When you said that in order to join the group, i would need to be experimented, and that made me doubt”
The group looked at her with a frown.
“He he he he, she said, embarrassed. I was not thinking you would take it like that, Sunlight, i am sorry if i made you feel bad...I swear”
“That’s okay, and she is right, answered Sunlight. I am not good enough to join a group, especially the Rainbooms. Plus, you don’t need a third guitarist in the group...”
Sunset put her hands on his shoulder and smiled at him.
“You are wrong, Sunlight, she said. Maybe you are not as good as we are, and this is normal, we played for years. Don’t listen to Rainbow Dash. With our help, you will become good in no time. Rainbow Dash and me will teach you how to play like a pro, right, Rainbow?”
“Uh...Sure!!!” she answered, still embarrassed.
“Personally, i don’t see any problem for us to have one more guitarist in our group, said A.J. Except maybe if Rainbow Dash is afraid that Sunlight could steal her spotlight one day”
“This is not true!!! She said. I am not afraid of him becoming better than me...and even less of him hogging my spotlight on the scene”
Everyone looked at her with a doubtful face, Sunlight and Vinyl included.
“Okay, maybe just a little” she admitted.
“I won’t steal your «spotlight», Dashie, said Sunlight. I am not as egocentric as you....Okay, i am, but i just want to have fun with my friends.”
“Dashie? Please don’t call me like that, i can accept it from Fluttershy, but coming from you, that make me awkward!!” said Rainbow Dash.
“Oh, then, maybe you prefer me calling you Rainbow Crash?” he said.
“Who...Told you...That name!?” she asked to him, very mad
“My bad, said Fluttershy. I am sorry, Dashie, we were talking about our childhood at school and...”
“That was a joke, said Sunlight. I won’t call you Crash, or Dashie. I don’t want you to call me by my worst nickname”
“You have a bad nickname? She asked. I want to hear it!! What is it?!”
“Only if you let me call you Dashie, he said. But i am sure you will never...”
“Fine, she said. I will let you call me by any of my nicknames if you told me yours!!”
Sunlight whispered it to Rainbow, who was surprised.
“Wow, i am glad i was not you, she said. Rainbow Crash sound pretty good compared to your nickname”
“Keep it for you, okay? Asked Sunlight. If you call me like that in front of anyone outside of us, i will burn you...alive...”
“Get it, she answered. But you have to admit that Sunlight Glaze sound very funny, why did they called you like that”
“Long story, i will tell you on the way...”
“Okay, and if we were just returning to practice? Proposed Sunset. You will have the chance to practice too, Sunlight. Because you are officially part of the Rainbooms from now on. Until you will be ready to play with us live, you will be our supporter, and if you want, you can even write a song or two for the group. There is so much way you can help us!!
“And i already made a beautiful outfit for him!!!” said Rarity
“In that case, come on y’all!! Let’s do this” said A.J
“I am glad to have you for friends, he said. I will do my best!!”
Sunlight paid the electric guitar and rejoined his friends. He had fun and Pinkie even threw a party. Later, in the evening, When he was about to sleep, he suddenly had ideas for a song. So, he immediately start to write them...
