Like Father,Like Son

Ch. 3 Young BlueBlood and I

After we had gotten some cupcakes from Pinkie, BlueBlood and I sat in my truck eating them. I had just finished my last cupcake and was about to start the truck when I noticed BlueBlood looking at a ring on my finger.

“What you looking at BlueBlood?” I asked him and he pointed to my ring.

“Oh just that ring” Blueblood said

“Oh. This is my high school class ring. Got it in my last year there before I graduated.” I said, remembering the last day I was at school. “I take it you are wondering how much this ring cost?” I asked as I was about to start my truck

“Oh no i just thought it was nice” BlueBlood said

“Ok. I’m glad you think its nice. I like it too.” I said and started the truck with a roar of the engine

“That never gets old” BlueBlood stated

“It never does!” I said chuckling and drove off towards the castle.

“So BlueBlood, what’s it like living with Celestia?” I asked him while driving

“Its fun” BlueBlood said

“That’s good to hear” I said. Just then I happened to notice two very noble looking ponies. ‘ Those must be his parents ’ I thought. “BlueBlood, I may regret asking this, but are those your parents?” I asked

“I would not know i have never met my parents” BlueBlood said not even being affected

I stopped in front of the two ponies and leaned out the window. “START RUNNING!” I said and blasted the horn

“What are you doing?” Asked BlueBlood

“I’m going to give them a good scare” I said chuckling

“Well thats not nice” Blueblood said

“Come on, you have to admit they deserve it for abandoning you.” I said, hoping not to make him cry
“I dont even know if they are my parents they are just some nobles” BlueBlood said

I made a check and it confirmed it. “They are your parents.” I said, and pointed to the screen the results were displayed on.

“Well i dont care what you do with them”

“Ok.” I said and accelerated until I was just behind his parents. I was laughing at their scared faces. I stopped chasing them about 15 minutes later and just sat there in the drivers seat laughing like a jackass.

“That was not the nicest thing but funny” BlueBlood said laughing

I couldn’t reply I was laughing so hard. I had a hunch that Luna heard but I didn’t care. I was too busy laughing. I was laughing so hard my sides hurt.

“Ok ok lets not tell Auntie Celestia about this”

I nodded in agreement after I finally managed to stop laughing. “Yeah. Lets not tell her.” I said

“Good then now what?” BlueBlood asked

“Well, I’ll take you back to the castle.” I said and drove to the castle.

“Ok sounds good”

We arrived at the castle just as night fell. “Ok, BlueBlood, we’re here.” I said and stopped my truck and turned it off. I was clearly tired.

“Well thank you for the day it was different” BlueBlood said walking back inside

“No problem BlueBlood.” I said, then got into bed. I was out like a light when someone came into my truck and got next to me.

I was so tired, I slept through the next day. What I didn’t know was someone had done something to my truck. I had a hunch it was either Luna or Pinkie. When I got up the day after, I saw that someone had painted my truck dark cobalt blue

“Good morning” Discord said with a yawn

I looked at him. “I’m not going to even bother.” I said, got dressed, and got out of my truck. “Damn its cold this morning.” I said, shivering slightly.

“Yes it is” Discord said making a scarf appear on my neck

“Thanks.” I said then went inside the castle.

I was just walking along when I suddenly felt something heavy on my back. I turn my head to see that my wings were now fully grown. I was amazed at how quickly they grew.

“Ya dont worry about it” Discord said

“Uh, ok.” I said and kept walking.

“I wonder” Discord thought

I just kept walking until I saw BlueBlood and Celestia. “Hey Celestia, Hey BlueBlood. I want to show you this.” I turned and showed them that my wings were fully grown.

“Wow that is great” Celestia stated

“Thanks!” I said, smiling.

“Wow that is just wow” BlueBlood said

I smiled again and thanked him for the compliment. “I need to show Luna this.” I said

“I would not she is busy” Celestia said stopping me

“Ok. I’ll show her later then.” I said.

“That would be smart unless” Celestia said shuddering

“unless?” I asked

“Well you could be her test subject in her lab”

“I don’t know if that is good or bad.” I said, and shivers ran up and down my spine

“It can be bad sometimes” Celestia deadpanned

“I should probably leave the castle, now right?” I asked. “I might need to check something on my truck, and that something might just be repairing the engine. I haven’t done that in a while and the engine needs it. Bad.” I said, turning towards the entrance

“No just dont go in her lab”

“Ok. I won’t.” I said and walked outside to my cobalt blue truck

“Aww you're leaving now” Discord said

I got my tools from the cab of my truck. “No Discord, I’m just doing routine maintenance.” I said and proceeded to reveal the block of pipes and hoses that was the engine

“Oh make it run on chocolate milk” Discord said

I was already starting to check the engine for anything that was broken or needed to be replaced.
I found something that was busted and proceeded to take it out. “Damn spark plugs again. I swear these things hardly last.” I said, throwing away the broken plugs and replacing them.

“No wait i could have turned those into cany” Discord said with a dumb looking pout

I rolled my eyes and continued working. “Wow, lots of busted crap in here. And to think that this truck was fresh off the production line!” I said in disgust.

“Hard to believe its not butter”

I couldn’t help but chuckle at that comment. I kept working for at least 5 hours straight.

“I now wish it to rain butter” Discord said as butter began to rain

“Crap, now I have to clean butter out of the engine. This will take forever!” I said, facepalming

“No it wont because there's not butter in it”

“Really? I thought there was.” I said, replacing some more busted parts of the engine. I pulled out another bbusted spark plug and replaced it

“Wow you know what your doing now you have ten second to live eat a pine cone or die” Discord said i knew he was just trolling

I kept working until my gut nagged at me for food. I got up and my back was stiff after being bent over for 7 hours straight

“Is somepony hungry hmmmm”Discord asked

“Yeah, and I know the perfect thing to settle my stomach.” I said, reaching into the cab of my truck for something. As I pulled out my lunch, I noticed Luna walking up to me. “Hey Mom. How’s your day so far?” I asked

“Nnnnggggg been awake for weeks” Luna said

“Wow. If you want to, you can sleep in my truck.” I said as I began eating before finishing maintenance on the engine. “I’m just about to finish working on the engine of my truck then I need a nap. I’ve been working for 7 hours straight.” I said

“No i'm fine just this though” Luna said hitting me with a taser

“Can I ask what that was for?” I asked

“Did it hurt?” Asked Luna

“Not really.” I said

“If you want to mom, you can watch and see how I repair a truck engine.” I said, getting up. At that moment, I saw BlueBlood coming outside with Celestia behind him.

“Hello Diamond” celestia said

“Hey Celestia. How are ya?” I asked, about to get back to the engine of my truck

“I am well and you”

“I’m doing good. I’m just about to finish fixing the engine on my truck.” I said as I bent over the engine again, looking for anything else broken

“Oh and this” Discord said dumping water on me

“That’s better. Now I can work without sweat dripping into my eyes.”

“And it is magic water” Discord said “Trust me friend”

I rolled my eyes and kept working.

“I would back away now” Discord said

“And why should I?” I asked

“Do you want your face blow off”

I was wearing a bullet proof face mask while I was working.

[s=14] BANG

“Good thing I was wearing my bullet and explosion proof mask!” I said

“And now the truck is fixed” Discord said

I looked at it. “Wow. I was almost finished fixing it the way my grandpa would have done, but that works.” I said

“Your grandpa sounds like a hard worker” Discord said

“That he was, Discord. That he was.” I said. At that moment, memories hit me like a freight train
I opened the door to my truck. “I need some time alone, if that’s not too much to ask” I said

“Take all the time you need” Luna said

I closed the door, got in my bed and just cried my eyes out. I then got behind the wheel, started my truck, and drove out of Canterlot as fast as my truck would allow, tears streaming down my face.

I stopped in the middle of that small town that was close to Canterlot. I just sat in my truck looking at a pic of my grandpa. I saw someone near the door but I paid no attention to who it was.

“Helloooo can i come in” Discord asked

“Discord, can I be left alone?” I asked through tears

“Sorry cant do that” Discord said teleporting in wearing a nurses outfit

I was mad and sad at the same time. I pointed my 12 gauge at Discord. “I WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE!” I said

“I SAID NO” Discord yelled back pointing a giant candy cane at me

I kicked his ass out of my truck. “STAY OUT OF MY TRUCK AND MY LIFE!” I said, and floored the accelerator

“Fine what ever you want Discord said turning himself to stone.....i think it will last for a week

I drove to that town. Ponyville or whatever the hell it was called. I stopped behind a large tree and killed the truck engine with a turn of the key. I just sat there, looking at the picture of my grandpa, crying the whole time. I couldn’t help but wonder who could hear me crying, but I didn’t care.

“Hello are you ok”

I looked around. I couldn't tell where the voice was coming from.”who’s there?” I asked

“My name is Twilight Sparkle personal student of Princess Celestia”

“Nice to meet ya. I’m Steel Diamond son of Luna” I said

“Yes i met you once sorry about Lyra” Twilight said

“I knew Lyra wouldn’t keep her mouth shut.” I said

“Ya but at least she got her proof” Twilight said

“True. Now she has to shut up about humans.” I said in relief

“No she wont trust me she wont” Twilight deadpanned

“Anyway, I take it you heard me crying?” I asked

“Yes i did”

“Well, I think you don’t know exactly WHY I was crying.” I said

“No i do not and please do not yell at me”Twilight said looking in my eye

I showed her the pic of my grandpa. “I was crying because I miss him.”

“Well he is in a better place” Twilight said

“Yeah he is.” I replied, and put the picture away

“Oh and for that matter” Twilight got into my face “Never take that tone with me or i will buck you up”

I grabbed my shotgun. “You sure about that?” I said

“I can use magic and well lets leave it here dont mess with somepony whos talent is magic”

“Where I came from, people knew not to mess with me. Want to know why Twilight?” I asked, putting my shotty away
“Why is that”

“People knew that if they presses a certain button of mine, they ended up DEAD.” I said.

“HUMANS THEY ARE REAL” Lyra shouted i could hear her and she was all the way on the other side of town

I yelled in surprise. “WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?”
