Pick a picture that will decide what the sequel will be about. A gift from HeavenJuly 14th 2039 I had this old notebook with me for a while and I didn't pay much attention to it but now I feel the need to use it because something is going on and I cant risk putting this on a computer document. I've always been paranoid of hackers and I can't afford those fancy security programs. I suppose first you should know my name. My name is Noah. I just recently moved to Chicago for work. I work as a security guard at Union Station. It gets busy during Rush Hour. The winters are horrible but that makes summer more enjoyable when it comes. But the city itself is not what I want to talk about. It's about how I just rediscovered my old childhood only to find something different about it. I know as kids we see things differently but this is something some would consider bizarre. Maybe I should start with what happened today. I was looking around a Target store when I came across something in the DVD section. The moment I saw it, I was flooded with nostalgia and relief. This show was my escape as a child. Growing up in Missouri me and my family couldn't afford fancy tech but we had cable and a recording system that can put DVRs into discs and I would always get excited to watch this show about six ponies teaching friendship as they went along through life. I still have those DVDs but at one point I thought it wouldn't be compatible with the new technology. Plus they also recorded the commercial breaks that come with them. Naturally I bought it but when I played it on my computer something was different about it. I soon found my old recordings and was relief my gaming pc could play them. What I have written are the transcripts from a scene in the first episode. DVD: Pinkie pie approaches Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Spike tries to encourage Twilight to try and talk to her. "Come on Twilight give it a try." The lavender Unicorn hesitated then spoke. "Uh...hello?" Pinkie pie gasped and quickly sped away. "Well that was interesting all right," Twilight said as she walked away leaving Spike the dragon to sigh. Recording: Pinkie pie approaches Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Spike tries to encourage Twilight to try and talk to her. "Come on Twilight give it a try as I go check on City hall." The lavender Unicorn hesitated as the dragon left then smiled warmly as she spoke to the pink mare. "Hello there my name is Twilight Sparkle and you are?" Pinkie excitedly grabbed Twilight's hoof and shook it. "I'm Pinkie Pie it's wonderful to meet you." The two mares then turned to the viewer. "Oh we're sorry we didn't see you there. What's your name?" There was silence in the scene until Pinkie spoke again. "That's a wonderful name. I hope we can be friends Noah. Maybe even best friends." It felt confusing to me. At one point I thought there was a main character named Noah. Was my mind really hooked on magic when I was little? Was I really talking to six mares on a TV screen? Now that I think about it, the only time me and my mother would watch TV together is when we were watching a movie. This whole thing is becoming mind boggling the more I watch. Especially when the end of the pilot episode looked so different and longer from when I saw it. DVD: The viewer is outside of town and Pinkie Pie pops out of nowhere and starts talking rapidly. "Isn't this exciting? Are you excited cause I'm excited I've never been so excited, well, except for the time that I went-" She gasped before resuming as an iris wipe closes the cartoon. "but I mean really-" Recording: The viewer is outside of town and the main six characters appear on the screen. "That was quite an adventure wouldn't you say Noah?" Twilight asked. There was silence before she resumed talking their faces now looking a bit concerned. "Aw don't be sad partner. This is just the first adventure you had with us," said Applejack. "Yeah and there'll be a lot more to be had with us awesome ponies," Rainbow Dash said as she hovered and grinned. "Don't think of this as goodbye darling," Rarity said. "Think of this as see you next time," Fluttershy said as she gave the warmest smile she could make. "Yeah and even when you're not watching us we'll always be looking out for a friend like you," smiled Pinkie Pie. "Remember this Noah," Twilight began. "There is magic in friendship even if you don't see it. As it states in Proverbs 18:24, A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." "You'll learn more as we go along for now we have to go. Come on give us a smile just to show us you can." Said Fluttershy. "That's a good boy. Goodbye for now Noah." Fluttershy said as she waved. The others followed suit. "Later Alligator," waved Rainbow. "So long Partner" said Applejack waving her hat. "Enjoy your day Darling," Rarity waved. "So long new bestie," Pinkie said bouncing. "See you next time Noah," Twilight said as an iris wipe closed the cartoon. I recalled hearing lots of bible quotes when I was a kid. I think most of them came from this show, at least how I saw it. Most of the old episodes I found in both DVD and online had no mentions of any human religion. To know about this feels odd. I now had so many more questions like how much time did I spent with them? What things about them do I really remember and more importantly why are my memories with them spotty? I have to find out. I don't know how but I must know why was it me that heard and saw these characters like this. I may not know much now but I do know this. My memory is these six mares are my guardian angels. I'll have to dig around more when I have time. For now I must sleep. I wonder if they're still watching over me to this day. Author's Note Yep another side project. I have to get my imagination organized at some point. Watching over and overlookingJuly 15th I spent most of the day looking up information about the show. In my research I came across a lot of different things. This show had quite a huge impact when I was little. It had a fanbase just as big as any cultural Icon in entertainment. Of course it had stories and art work of questionable taste. From disturbing murder fics to hardcore content that was Identified as clop. But I would rather not go into that detail at this time. I looked into the publisher on the DVD. It was from a company that was known for packaging complete cartoon series into DVDs. From the vintage cartoon shorts of Felix the Cat to the modern day cartoons of the recent Sonic shows. They're still active to this day. However when I looked back through the end credits of the DVR recordings. I saw a small label that was different than the actual credits on the DVD. The publisher on the Recordings was by some group called Salvation. I tried looking up to see if it was some studio, company, or even some internet group that liked to make ripoffs or something. There were no records what so ever. Anyway I'd also looked up more episodes online and of course I had to compare and contrast some scenes from the actual episodes to the old recordings. Actual Episode: Twilight Sparkle and Princess Celestia stood at the top of the stairs greeting ponies as they approached. "Princess! I've been so excited to spend time with you and—" However Twilight was interrupted as more ponies approached. "Yes. Me too, Twi-" Celestia then looked down at the approaching guest. "oh, good evening! Welcome to the Gala. Which is why I-" Two more mares approached. "ladies! Lovely to see you again," Celestia said as she bowed. Twilight sighed in disappointment. "Looks like getting a chance to talk to the Princess is gonna be a magic trick in itself." Recording: As Princess Celestia greeted ponies, Twilight sneaked away. She was soon found in an empty hallway away from the crowd. She then looked to the viewer and sighed. "I know it's sometimes hard, not spending enough time with someone you love. But understand deep down your mother loves you despite the hardships you both face. Proverbs 31:25 states that she is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." There was silence for a moment before Twilight continued. "Trust me I promise you she'll be there when you need her the most. But even if she isn't there we'll be with you. Now how about we see how Rainbow Dash is getting on with Spitfire?" I remember how my Mom was always busy as she was the breadwinner for the house. But that lost memory was nothing compared to the one I also learned how it wasn't just her being too busy to play with me. Actual Episode: "We are gathered here today to once again honor the heroism of these six friends who stood up to the villain Discord and saved Equestria from eternal chaos," announced Princess Celestia as the crowd cheered for the six mares. Recording: The scene opened with the six mares in a donut shop celebrating their victory over Discord. They soon at some point turned to the viewer. "Even when things look bad you must have resilience in times of despair Noah," Twilight said. "Yeah everyone has the capability to be strong even you," said Rainbow. There was silence before they all frowned. "Now Noah, don't be saying stuff like that," Said a soft but stern Applejack. "She's right, you may be small but we were all small at some point. But don't worry we can make you stronger, even if he tries to lay a hand on you," said Fluttershy. There was no ceremony when I first saw it. But that wasn't the important detail. "HE" Thanks to that, I just now remembered it wasn't always me and my Mom. I use to have a Dad but he died when I was an infant. My Mom later got remarried to a guy she met somewhere else. My only memories of my Stepdad were his scowl and the smell of alcohol on his breath. Other than that I don't remember much but all I know is one moment he was in the house the next day he was gone and it was just my Mom raising me ever since that time. Now that filled my head with more questions like How could I not remember something that seems horrific? Did my Stepdad do things to me? Was I so traumatized that I blocked out my memory? More importantly what do the ponies and my Mom know? Tomorrow when I get off work I'll finish watching and comparing season two and get started with the third season. Something tells me the answers to my questions will come to me. It excites me but it also worries me at the same time. I hope it will all be worth it in the end. Somehow I have a feeling they are watching me somehow. Scars of ChangeJuly 16th If there is one thing about people I know is that we all have scars that tell stories. Whether it being physical wounds or emotional trauma. I have some scars too, but I forgotten where exactly I got them. I questioned my Mom about it when I was a teenager. She just told me I "was always playing rough as a toddler." Somehow I feel like that isn't true and the recordings further cement this. In a season three episode they broke character completely. Recording: Most of the main characters were outside Fluttershy's cottage, talking about Discord. "Personally, I think we should come up with a backup plan, in case this whole 'befriending' business doesn't work out," Rainbow Dash suggested. "Rainbow Dash is right. This is Discord we are talking about, girls. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have another trick up our sleeves," Agreed Rarity. Twilight Sparkle thought for a moment. "And I think I know just the..." she trailed off as her eyes looked like they were following something or someone. The viewer then saw Applejack knocked on the door softly. Fluttershy came out quietly. For some reason Discord was nowhere to be seen. All six characters looked towards the viewer. "Will he be back in a short while or a long time?" Twilight asked. Were they watching me? Was I the only one in the house? I assumed any kid at that time, like me, would either be excited or scared to be home alone. I barely remember that. Recording: The mares looked to the viewer with concerned expressions. "Noah, you're a very brave and strong child in God's eyes." The mares soon looked surprised for a second. "Darling it's ok if you didn't listen," said Rarity who looked liked she was trying to calm someone down. Applejack looked on with a soft yet stern face. "Partner, do you remember what we would do if you're ever afraid?" There was silence before they smiled and continued. "Yes Noah, we can help you," began Twilight as her face now became serious. "But you must do exactly what we say and you must be very careful." Was I really left alone at a young age? I know my Mom worked and my Dad most likely went out to do his own thing. Could they even afford a babysitter? With how I'm seeing this episode, the answers are becoming clearer, yet I feel a pit forming in my stomach. What did we do? Recording: The ponies looked like they were looking down at something while in the library. "Quite a common piece he carries," Rainbow said with her hooves crossed. "It's small but deadly, yet it should be easy to take apar-" Twilight said before her friends suddenly looked scared. "No no no Noah, don't pick it up again. Just leave it there on the table and let me just see," she finished as her horn glowed. After what felt like five minutes her horn stopped glowing. "Now that it's in pieces we should hide them somewhere and hope he doesn't go looking for them and use them for harm," She suggested. Another brief moment of silence came until Pinkie let out a giggle. "Silly Noah, we can't put a piece in your toy chest." "She's right darling maybe you should hide a piece in a far part of underneath your bathroom sink," Rarity suggested. Fluttershy then pointed to something. "At least put whatever piece is heavy back in the box so it would at least feel like there's something inside." There was another brief silence before Twilight beamed. "Good idea Noah, but if you're gonna hide most of them like that, you must act fast and at least bury them where he can't see the spot from a window." My god. Did my Stepdad owned a weapon? Did I actually dug a hole in the backyard? How was I able to do it? I could barely lift a shovel at that age. Maybe I used my hands. Recording: The characters quickly gathered in a place where Celestia and Discord stood like statues. "Not only are you getting more resilience but you are getting smarter as well. We're so proud of you," said Twilight. "But don't worry even if he finds other ways to hurt you, we'll always be your guardian angels and we will fight for you," said Rainbow with a look of determination. Now I remember more about him. In case it wasn't obvious my Mom met him in a bar. He was always drinking either at home or in the bar. Whenever he had a bad day he would take it out on Mom and sometimes out at me when I happen to unfortunately get in his way. It was at this moment realization struck me and I dug up a recording of the episode titled "Magical Mystery Cure" it was the ending I was after. Recording: Twilight and her friends were in Canterlot celebrating her coronation. Twilight waved at the crowd from her chariot before facing the viewer. "Thank you Noah, it does feel wonderful but you look sad for some reason." Another brief pause before she smiled warmly. "Noah I understand things are happening very fast," she began. "But you must understand change is inevitable and I know it's scary but in Deuteronomy 31:6 it says be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." There was another pause before she nodded. "Yes Noah we will never forsake you, even if you don't see us." I have to know more. What happened that made my Stepdad disappeared? Did they do something? Maybe I should consider taking a trip to Missouri for answers. Events of ConsequencesJuly 20th I had to take time off work saying it was to deal with some personal issues of which I'd rather not go into. My boss was very understanding and allowed it. I spent all of the next couple of days travelling to my old home town in Missouri. On the train there, I played some more episodes on a DVD player. Most of what it was in season four and beyond were just wholesome memories and life lessons. Though there was one thing I did notice. The secondary and background characters in the recording either stood like statues or just looked at the main characters like they were crazy when ever they spoke to me. They didn't seem to acknowledge me. The only episode that was the most normal compared to the actual release was "Slice of life." I wasn't surprised since that episode involves the background characters. However at the end the main six did speak to me briefly. Recording: After seeing the wedding inside town hall. The main characters turned to the viewer. "Sorry we couldn't hang out today Noah," Twilight began, "but we didn't want you to see this fight. It could've ended badly." "Actually maybe we could've record it. I thought it was awesome," Rainbow said before Pinkie lightly jabbed her in the side making her wince slightly. There was a brief pause before Twilight spoke again smiling wider. "That's good of you. It's important to learn from others every now and then. In Philippians 3:17, it encourage us to join in following his example and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us." "But as your guardian angels we're still your teachers in a way. Consider today like a substitute teacher," Pinkie said. After traveling by train I took an Uber and I surprised my Mom. She was so happy to see me. It felt good to be home. I told her I was taking some time off to visit. Fortunately my old bedroom is still in tact. No pony merch but there were old posters of steam trains and muscle cars. When she wasn't looking I went out to the backyard that had a patch of grass that didn't exactly match the rest of the yard. I dug it with a shovel to see parts of a gun. I only found a few small rods, springs and a magazine. The frame and the slide were missing. Maybe I put those in the box where he keeps it. Later that night after my Mom went to bed I snuck up to the attic and did a bit of digging. I soon found a box that was labeled 'Noah's childhood'. Immediately I opened it up to find drawings of me and the ponies. There were also bits of other merchandise from plush toys to tiny plastic figures. But the strangest thing so far was a file that had printed screenshots of news articles. I read one of them using the light on my phone since the attic's light bulb was burnt out. MAN BRUTALLY ATTACKED IN HIS HOME. WITNESSES SAW STRANGE FIGURES. Last night around 1 AM, a 9-1-1 call came claiming what the caller described as screaming coming from his next door neighbor's house. Another two witnesses, also neighbors, claimed they saw silhouettes of the possible intruders in the windows but couldn't make out any other characteristics. Police responded, but despite the fast response the suspects got away. However the police found no signs of forced entry or even an exit. They soon found the victim, Eric Ridgeworth, heavily injured, but alive in his living room. His limbs were twisted in a way that would be described as severe, and he had multiple wounds all over his body. However despite surviving the horrific attack he endured, he was left in a catatonic state after arriving and being treated at the hospital. We spoke to several people in the area and they all shared responses that Eric was always described as "Drunk," "Angry", and "Abusive" towards his family. At first the police suspected the entire street may have played a role in the attack but their alibies checked out and the wife confirmed none of them had a part and that the voices of the intruders didn't sound like them. She described the intruders as all female due to their voices. She claims it had to have been six. She spent all of last night hiding in her bedroom worried for her son who was asleep throughout the duration of the entire night. She tried calling the for help but the phone line was cut. Eric is currently in the Hospital but it is unknown at this time if he'll ever make a full recovery. If anyone has any information about the suspects please contact your local law enforcement. I wanted to read more but I had to sleep. The next day I told my Mom I had to go back to Chicago and I was taking the box of my childhood with me. She smiled and told me she wanted to give me something to go with it. She went to her room and came back with something in a small case. It was a blank DVD. It had a tape label that said 'Night of the Angels.' I looked at her as if I was asking her if she knew the real reason why I was here. She just kissed my cheek and told me "they miss you too." That's all she said before she closed the front door as my Uber pulled up ready to take me to the station. I'm currently on the train home writing this. When I get back to my apartment I'll play it. For now I might as well watch and compare season seven. Looking at the plush of Twilight Sparkle I have a feeling that whatever happened that night, might've been the night of a big change in my life. Maybe I can get my final answers into how I forgot and where did they go. A Devil's NightmareJuly 21st I came back home. I was close to finishing the eighth season when the train pulled into the station. I went on back to my apartment feeling both excited and scared. This disc my Mom gave me is what I'll watch before I get to the rest of the show. My heart is pounding in my chest as I inserted the disc into the computer. I hit open and it looked like an actual DVD menu with background music and of course the main six bunched together in that signature group photo. It only had one option and that was play. After taking a deep breath, I clicked play. The scene opened up in a suburban neighborhood in fact some would assume this was taking place in the Equestria Girls world. However the scene then cut to a familiar house. It had a mailbox that had the name Ridgeworth on it. The scene then cut to a bedroom where a little boy was crying as he slept. In the background one could hear the sound of something walking on the floor. The scene cut to another room where two adults were in bed. The boy's crying could be softly heard. A man stood up while his wife turned over. Her forehead had a band aid on it. She looked up to her husband with worry. "Honey? What are you going to do?" She asked with worry. "I'm going to fix it," he said in a voice that sounded intimidating as he walked to the door. The wife immediately got up and grabbed his arm. "Eric Please! He can't help it!" She begged. "Get off me!" Eric snapped as she shoved her to the ground. "That brat really needs to learn to zip it or lose it." The wife could only hold back her sobs as her husband shut the door. She then crawled to a window. The moon casted a glow in the room. She got on her knees and put her hands in a prayer posture. "Lord in heaven above..." The scene then cut to Eric pulling what looked like a small box out of a drawer. In the background something moved in the dark hallway. He grinned as he pulled out a Glock. "This'll put the fear of god in him," he said before actually feeling the gun. "What? Why does it feel so-" Suddenly a creaking of floorboards was heard in another room. He snapped his head in the direction of the sound. "Who's there?!" There was no reply. He followed where the sound came from. It was coming from near the entrance of the house. The moment Eric was about to look out the front window when suddenly something fast and blue shoved him violently out of the room. It looked liked it struck him faster than a truck. He went rolling into a wall. A shadow stretched across him. The viewer can't see what is in front of Eric. But the shadows on the wall behind him resemble ponies. Eric pulled out his gun and tried to pull the trigger. Terrified he looked only to see not only the magazine gone but many parts as well. The scene then cut back to the child bedroom. The child looked like he stopped crying and was sleeping soundly. A pair of yellow hooves pulled the blanket over his chest to make him more comfortable. The child's sleeping face soon went from a slight frown to a smile. Outside the room Eric was running through the hallway with a slight limp. Two figures that were orange and blue followed after him fast. It then cut back to the sleeping child. As he slept their were sounds of things breaking and voices being raised. Despite the horrific noise the child continued to sleep. The screen then cut to black for a minute. Then all of a sudden we see the face of Eric screaming in agony. His face was covered in bruises and was bleeding from certain places. It went on for a few seconds until it cut back to the child. We then see a full view of his bed. The door opened and six colorful figures walked in. It was them, the main six. They all gathered around the bed watching the child. Twilight Sparkle inched closer and kissed the little boy on the head. "Do not weep my friend, he won't lay a fearful hand on you ever again." The six continued to watch over the child. However the distance sound of a police car's siren was heard and the red and blue lights slowly started to blink across the room from the nearby window. The ponies did nothing but instead slowly faded away like ghost. Smiles never leaving their faces. The screen faded to black. No credits were playing but only these words appeared on screen. "We love you Noah." I couldn't believe what I saw. It's like they came out of the TV and they fought my Stepdad. Now I remember what happened after that. The memory of the aftermath came surging through me like a freight train. After the evidence of the abuse and rather have Child Protective Services try and take me away, my Mom immediately divorced him and instantly won custody of me thanks to the help of the community. The events of what happened that night are still a mystery but I know now what happened and I have a feeling my Mom does too. I did some more digging on the internet and found out he was in a mental hospital after attempting to attack a doctor. Last I heard he's still in there to this day. This still only leaves these last few questions. What happened to them after all that? Why and how did I forget them? The answer came in Season nine. The final season of the entire show. Another difference I noticed was that the character Cozy Glow was actually redeemed and placed in Starlight's care. But that's not important. What is important is what happened in the very last scene of the finale. Recording: The main six were in the castle of friendship. Despite the victory against evil they all looked sad for some reason. Twilight then turned to the viewer. "Oh no Noah, we are glad that the battle is over," Twilight began. "And yes I'm more confident to take the throne, but I'm afraid we have some bad news." "Darling I'm afraid this will be our last chapter we can share with you," Rarity said. "No no honey, it ain't something you did, it's just well..." Applejack trailed off, unsure what to say. "It's a lot of grown up knowledge but to explain it simply, it's like the battery in your toys," Pinkie began. "As long as they have juice you can still play. But I'm afraid this battery is dying and it is one you can't replace." There was a brief silence before Rainbow spoke up, "listen little buddy, we were a gift from Heaven to help you but all things have to go back to heaven at some point." There was another pause before Fluttershy spoke up. "And you're our best friend too but you're growing up and sometimes we need to move on and we think it's also time you make your own adventures." There was one more brief pause before Twilight spoke up carrying a warm smile while the others looked surprised. "That's very thoughtful of you Noah." "What?! Twilight you can't be serious!" Rainbow snapped. "Its his choice besides you want him missing us too much? You don't want watch him being depressed do you?" Twilight asked. The others looked to Noah and eventually nodded. They all looked like they were about to cry. "Darling I pray one day you'll remember us," Rarity said. "Yeah and who knows we might hang out again. Eventually..." Rainbow said while fighting back her tears. "Come on girls lets not do this in front of him lets smile so that will be the last thing he sees," Twilight suggested. The main six bunched together and despite the heavy emotions they smiled as Twilight's horn glowed. "You may not remember all the adventures we had, but the lessons you learned you'll never forget like this last one from Thessalonians 5:23. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. " "Amen," everyone said. "Goodbye Noah, we love you too," said Twilight. I couldn't hold back I had tears streaming down my face. Everything is now clear. I asked them to make me forget so that I can go through life as well as I could. Never have I ever forgot the lessons though. Sure what happened to my Stepdad was horrifying but its not like he didn't deserve it. Now I have a new objective. I'll have to do it tomorrow for now I must sleep. I got to get back to work at some point. Angel's DescentJuly 22nd Everything is clear and the memories are set in stone. After more research, I came to a rather unique conclusion. They were only able to speak to me through broadcast. Since I can't convince a television channel to put it back on I may have an idea that feels insane. I'm going to live stream one of the recordings. This might be my only way to see them again. These angels have helped me and I don't think I properly thanked them. Maybe if this works we can hang out like old times. This world is a cruel place but maybe just maybe they can light it up again and give my world color. Part of me is hoping if this doesn't work then all of this would've been a dream of some kind. But my heart feels it's true. They were always there making sure I smiled. Recording: Rainbow Dash makes funny faces at the viewer while two guards stand outside Sugarcube Corner in the background. Rainbow stopped then laugh. "I don't get it. If I make you laugh how come they can't laugh?" There was a pause before Rainbow sighed. "You're right they are too good, I'm bored." Even when I couldn't sleep at night the TV was on and they were willing to have a sleepover with me. Recording: Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity were reading a book in a barely lit room. The three mares turned to the viewer. "We can stay as long as you want us to Noah," Twilight said. "Maybe a bedtime story is all you need," Rarity suggested. "How about a lullaby?" Applejack asked. Of course there were also the life lessons I needed as well. It was because of them I wasn't afraid of snakes or spiders anymore. Recording: Fluttershy had a small spider on her hoof as she looked to the viewer. "Some creatures may look scary but sometimes they bite when they feel threatened, just like us." The spider jumped off before Fluttershy continued. "We can be like them too Noah. We can prove we're not deadly." They were my friends who knew how to make me feel special. They were each the little pictures that made a huge portrait for me. Recording: Pinkie sat in a lawn chair near a lake she took a sip of lemonade, "I hope you're having as much fun as we are Noah." This could be my last journal entry for a while. For now I have a chance to take. I hope this stream works. I had it set to private to avoid unwanted attention. Here goes nothing. I closed my notebook and turned to my computer. With a deep breathe I pressed stream and clicked play. I picked a random episode from beyond season four because of Twilight's wings and castle. The scene opened up with a huge set of doors and there she was. One of my angels. Twilight Sparkle stepped out of her castle. "Hmm... Thats strange something is different," she said. Just then Rainbow Dash and Applejack entered the scene. "Hey Twilight does something feel different about today?" Rainbow asked as she landed. "Yeah it feels like we're being watched," said Applejack looking around. Slowly the other three came and were just as confused. After finding my voice, I spoke. "Girls?" That got their attention as they all looked to the viewer. "Pinkie is this a new friend?" "No?" Pinkie said nervously. "Oh my god... Girls its me Noah I'm here," I said. All six mares gasped. Some put their hooves to their mouths. There was a brief silence before I spoke. "Do you all remember me?" I asked nervously. There was a brief silence Twilight stood motionless until she closed her eyes for a moment before she smiled and looked at me. "We're so happy to see you Noah." All mares got closer to the screen and they each placed a hoof on the screen. Each mare smiling with a tear in their eyes. "Just look at how well you've grown," she said. I slowly placed a hand on the screen. Most of the hooves were touching a finger tip with Twilight Sparkle's touching my palm. "I have lots to catch you up on," I said. "Then lets get this reunion party started," Pinkie said. I couldn't be more happy as I was now back with my little ponies or rather my guardian angels. Author's Note This may feel like the end but call it the end of a season. Season two will feature some surprise guest. ForsakenJanuary 5th 2040 Things were on the upside with me for a while. Everyday after work we talk together and hangout. It was a perfect escape from the troubles of the outside world. Whenever I had a bad day they were there to make me smile. Even when I didn't want them near they would appear on the screen and just like magic I would need them again. We had a wonderful time celebrating the holidays. Heck even the recordings say Halloween rather than Nightmare Night. Christmas was an even wonderful time. We couldn't really give each other gifts for obvious reason but we would sing to each other. They seemed to like my singing voice. However on New Years Day, when I woke up and went to the computer screen. They were gone. I tried calling out to them but they didn't respond. All I could see were the various backgrounds and the many secondary and background characters walking and doing their own thing. I soon learned their names and tried calling out to them. I tried Spike, Sweetie Belle, Derpy, Lyra, Celestia, and even Discord. None of them gave me a response. I don't understand this. Where did they go? If they went somewhere why didn't they tell me? Did I do something wrong? I was holding out hope. I left the stream running in the hope they come back. However today I finally got a response but not the one I was hoping for. The castle doors opened and there was a pony I didn't recognize. Whoever this is he's not one of them. This Alicorn Stallion had a grey coat, blue mane, and what's weirder he had bits of red and black on some parts of his body. He looked like a weirdly made OC. It was then five more ponies eventually showed up. A dark blue pegasus mare, an overweight dark green earth pony stallion, a yellow pegasus stallion with black stripes on some parts, a white unicorn stallion with a red mane, a white earth pony stallion with bits of green and red on his coat. I was shocked by this. I tried calling out to them but they seemed to ignore me. I know they're listening to me. They just acted out the episode 'Castle Mania' and they did a pour job at doing it. Stream: "When I was just a fil - uh I mean colt," The dark green pony said to the blue mare. "Granny Smith told me of an ancient legend. When Nightmare Moon was banished, not every last bit of her dark magic went with her. Granny used to say, when night falls on the castle, that magic takes the form of... Unicr- uh the Pony of Shadows!" The mare looked a bit nervous before speaking. "You mean like-" The screen paused before The mare moved by herself and tapped the pause button with her hoof. All the while giving the viewer a stern look. "-a ghost," she finished. I'm scared right now. I know they can hear me but to control the stream too is something else entirely. I felt sick watching this. Maybe tomorrow they'll go away and the main will be back. Maybe they're on vacation and forgot to tell me right? They have to be substitutes right? I think I'm losing my mind. This has to be a bad dream. Author's Note It should be easy to assume who these new ponies are. Technical DifficultiesJanuary 6th They didn't leave. They're still there on the stream. Those five stallions and one mare are still where my angels are suppose to be. That grey and blue stallion is the only one doing a good job at acting like he's the bookworm of the group. I eventually came to learn the characters names were Optimum, Fixed Ratchet, Bulk Load, Bumblebee, RC, and Jack Hammer. Despite their names sounding a little familiar I know they Don't belong in this show. For that reason I couldn't take it anymore. I had to cut the stream and it worked. Perhaps a little too well. Stream: The six strange ponies were in a train car discussing the mystery of the baked pastries that were eaten. Optimum addresed the group after the case was solved. "Well, everypony, we finally have the mystery sol-" Optimum stopped as his eyes looked towards the viewer in surprise. The five other characters looked to the viewer as well. Pony Joe, Gustave, and Mulia looked in other places motionlessly. It was like those three became statues. Fixed Ratchet the red and white Unicorn was the first to speak up. "You're the one airing this?!" Jack Hammer the white earth Stallion approached the viewer and looked around. "This ain't some fancy TV station how are you doing this?" The Blue mare RC flew up to the viewer and lightly shoved Jack Hammer out of the way. "Who are you? Why did you put the show back on? Are you with Hasbro or Salvation?" I got a little scared again but soon calmed down and explained myself. I then told them I'm friends with Twilight and her crew and I want them to bring them back but then Optimum surprised me as he spoke in a smooth voice. Stream: "We're trying to find them? What do you think you're doing?" Long story short the train pulled into Canterlot. Instead of going to a dessert contest like as planned they went to Twilight's old library where much to my surprise, Spike was there. They told me they were from a different place entirely with mostly different names. For once Spike acknowledged my presence. Not sure why now but to me that wasn't important right now. The group were going through old books. I think since they now know they are 'off the air' they can do whatever they want. Stream: "There's gotta be something in here that can help," Bulk said as he threw another book behind him. Spike who was nearby watched everything. "Uh I doubt you guys would find anything here." Optimum approached the the dragon. "Do you believe there is maybe a reason or even a theory into why she left?" "I'm not really suppose to talk about it," Spike said nervously. "Sure but this is an exception. We need to use every bit of knowledge we can use," Optimum said. "Oh in that case I think I may have something," said Spike as he left the room for a bit and came back with a scroll. The others gathered around him. "As Twilight Sparkle's number one assistant I often get visions bestowed upon me in my sleep. I sometimes doodle them for fun. This came to me on New Years day," he said as he unrolled the scroll to reveal a drawing of six winged humans wearing armor and had halos. The group examined the drawing. "What could this have to do with their disappearance," RC asked. "I guess Twilight still likes to help people who can't help themselves," Spike replied. Optimum sighed, "that's just like them, their work is never done," he said before turning to the viewer. "Listen carefully we can only get little done with magic and hooves. This could work better in a place with more depth. You can stream anything on here right?" They want me to go and obtain an episode of a show they are really from. Luckily I found one. No wonder their colors and voices sound familiar. Their real names are Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Bulkhead, Arcee, and Wheeljack. Bumblebee's name is still the same. Good thing I have a day off tomorrow. Something tells me I'll be up all night with these guys. But it will be worth it because I must find them. I have to trust the Autobots. Beyond the VeilThe show was pretty interesting. I did have an interest in 3D computer animation. But I'm not here to discuss that. The show opened up in a cave like base. The human characters from the intro were absent and I believe we won't see the Decepticons. Because they're not the biggest issues. Stream: The six autobots were looking up at a screen that had the same drawing Spike showed them. Optimus Prime began explaining them. "The six angelic figures were warriors that were rumored to have once been humans that lived on earth. It was unknown who exactly they once were or how they died." There was a brief silence until Ratchet spoke up, looking at the viewer. "Yes Noah, we were once human long ago but we rather not focus too much on our past lives," he said. "When a human enters heaven they are free to do what they want," began Optimus. "That includes becoming reincarnated as anything or anyone they choose." "And it seems these six girls chose to become cartoon ponies that speak to a viewer," said Arcee. "Don't know why they would break character for you. Were you something really special to those girls?" Wheeljack asked the viewer. Another pause before Optimus closed his eyes and sighed. "If we want to have any hope of reaching them we must use what knowledge we can get. Explain the concept of this live stream and how different it is to Television broadcast." I managed to explain everything about livestreaming and the platform I used. We slowly began to come up with a plan. In order to have any chance of finding at least one of the angels we have to air as many screens as possible. For all we know they could be in a dark void that is infinite. Stream: A big portal known as a ground bridge opened up emitting a big green glow. Optimus Prime turned to his team. "I'll go and find them with Noah's help. The rest of you stay here and keep the connection stable." Optimus turned to the viewer. "Lets roll." He saluted and transformed into a truck and charged into the portal. I had three monitors operating. I know this would put a strain on the electric bill, but I don't care. This could be our only shot. All monitors are showing random pictures from different cartoons and every once in a while I see Optimus Prime appearing in these images. At one point he started calling out their names. I soon joined in. We must have been calling their names for what felt like hours. It was becoming hopeless until we finally got a response. Optimus called out while standing in a neighborhood cul-de-sac on one of the monitors. "Twilight! Where are you?" "Optimus?" a voice sounded from one of the monitors. Optimus immediately ran to the side of the screen and started banging on the side with his metal fist. "Twilight is that you?" The screen of the monitor next to his was showing a 3d environment of an empty big train station. I think it was a place in Thomas and friends. I then saw a familiar alicorn walk onto the screen. "Twilight! Over here!" I called. "Noah?! Where are you guys?" she asked looking scared "Optimus is in Ed Edd n Eddy and I'm still in my apartment," I explained. "Girls! Noah Found us!" Twilight called and on then that same monitor started showing multiple windows. There I saw them. My angels in different animating formats. They were in different shows. I recognized them from the backgrounds. Rainbow was in Sonic Boom, Fluttershy was in Pokémon, Applejack was in the Loud House, Rarity was in Regular Show, and Pinkie was in what looked like a vintage Mickey Mouse Cartoon. Steamboat Willie I think. I regained my voice as I asked them an important question. "Girls, where did you go?" Author's Note To be concluded... Prayer For HopeAll I could do was stare at them as their screens occasionally glitched. The backgrounds were slowly fading away and they slowly reverted to their original animated designs. Eventually they were all in a blank white background. Eventually I found my voice as I asked them. "Girls? Why did you leave?" "Noah...We're so sorry," Twilight said sadly. "He's fine you girls. Are you all Okay?" Optimus asked. "We...don't know," Fluttershy said quietly. "We left because of the stream," began Rarity. "We may have set your private stream to public after Christmas." "Yeah and Immediately people were asking us questions and not just these so call bronies but people who are going through tough times. Some even say we were the best form of emotional support AI ever," Said Rainbow. That's when it hit me. They were trying to help people and fans on the internet. I practically exposed them to the void that is the internet. "So this is my fault..." I muttered. "Woah there partner no it aint," Applejack said. "It's our fault we didn't tell you." "You're so capable now Noah," began Twilight. "We were your gift from heaven. We wanted to give back to a world where we lost our way and lost our lives." "So wait you really were once human? What happened to you girls? Heck are your names even real?" I asked still feeling scared. "We never knew each other but yes," began Fluttershy. "We died either by accident or suicide. But somehow we gained a second chance thanks to heaven and salvation." "Salvation? The publishing group? What is that?" I asked. "Salvation was a group of people dedicated to bringing back the spirits of heaven in order to properly educate people on faith and help people through the power of animation. However it is up to the character reincarnation to decide what people they want to help," explained Optimus. "Even we Autobots had someone we had to guide through the hardships of life." "As for our names we chose to adopt these names rather than remember our old human ones. But I think we are getting off topic darling," Rarity said. "She's right are you girls alright? Do you want me to come to you?" asked Optimus. "We don't know. They are so many voices calling us. It isn't like before Prime," explained Twilight. "Yeah and the next thing we knew we found ourselves in a big void wandering through different cartoons," Pinkie said. "It’s the Internet. The live stream might as well have caught the attention of millions of people," I said. Optimus stroked his chin. "You seem to know your way around this platform, we can barely comprehend it ourselves." "We've adapted before," Pinkie said. "Yeah, but we had help from an entire team of people," Applejack said. The six mares turned to me. "Would it bother you Noah, that we are not the same ponies you remember? I know you needed us but if I'm being honest there were times when...we needed you too." "We did one time say we were not flawless," smirked Rainbow. "You six were never flawless," I said. "You were my angels who were there when I needed you." The mares and robot stared at me for a short minute before Twilight smiled the warmest smile I ever saw. "And now you can do the same." We must have spent another hour or two talking about the livestream concept and now we have a plan. Optimus did at one point returned to his show where we watched him debrief his team. "Young man, I trust you will do your part and make sure these mares continue to help people in need. They can still talk to you but like other people they need time to explore," Optimus explained. I nodded and turned to my angels on the other monitor. "Don't worry as long we still see each other some time we can help so many people with an organized stream and proper planning." "This will be so much fun!" Pinkie exclaimed as she jumped. I then turn to Optimus who was with his team standing by a green portal in the background. "Will we ever see you again?" "Noah, I do not know. We now want to find our old friend again. Like you she was a child that was living in a dark world. But thanks to you we might have a chance to find her again. If we never see you again, look to the stars at night and think of some of them as our souls," Optimus said before turning to his team. "Time to see if our friend has become a strong woman. Autobots Transform and Roll out!" Just like that they were gone and their screen went black. I then turned my angels. "You girls ready? Remember no wandering into the void without telling me and not with out a clear path back here." "Don't worry Noah, we'll always be with you," said Twilight as my mouse hovered over the start button. "Promise?" I asked. "Always," she said as I clicked the mouse. LIVE STREAM STARTED The End... Author's Note Not my best story but I tried. This was made out of boredom and inspiration from the Angel Hare. I wonder if East patch will make another season.
AN: Possible sequelI'm still considering a sequel but I would like for you the viewers to help me decide. Pick a picture that will decide what the sequel will be about.
A gift from HeavenJuly 14th 2039 I had this old notebook with me for a while and I didn't pay much attention to it but now I feel the need to use it because something is going on and I cant risk putting this on a computer document. I've always been paranoid of hackers and I can't afford those fancy security programs. I suppose first you should know my name. My name is Noah. I just recently moved to Chicago for work. I work as a security guard at Union Station. It gets busy during Rush Hour. The winters are horrible but that makes summer more enjoyable when it comes. But the city itself is not what I want to talk about. It's about how I just rediscovered my old childhood only to find something different about it. I know as kids we see things differently but this is something some would consider bizarre. Maybe I should start with what happened today. I was looking around a Target store when I came across something in the DVD section. The moment I saw it, I was flooded with nostalgia and relief. This show was my escape as a child. Growing up in Missouri me and my family couldn't afford fancy tech but we had cable and a recording system that can put DVRs into discs and I would always get excited to watch this show about six ponies teaching friendship as they went along through life. I still have those DVDs but at one point I thought it wouldn't be compatible with the new technology. Plus they also recorded the commercial breaks that come with them. Naturally I bought it but when I played it on my computer something was different about it. I soon found my old recordings and was relief my gaming pc could play them. What I have written are the transcripts from a scene in the first episode. DVD: Pinkie pie approaches Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Spike tries to encourage Twilight to try and talk to her. "Come on Twilight give it a try." The lavender Unicorn hesitated then spoke. "Uh...hello?" Pinkie pie gasped and quickly sped away. "Well that was interesting all right," Twilight said as she walked away leaving Spike the dragon to sigh. Recording: Pinkie pie approaches Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Spike tries to encourage Twilight to try and talk to her. "Come on Twilight give it a try as I go check on City hall." The lavender Unicorn hesitated as the dragon left then smiled warmly as she spoke to the pink mare. "Hello there my name is Twilight Sparkle and you are?" Pinkie excitedly grabbed Twilight's hoof and shook it. "I'm Pinkie Pie it's wonderful to meet you." The two mares then turned to the viewer. "Oh we're sorry we didn't see you there. What's your name?" There was silence in the scene until Pinkie spoke again. "That's a wonderful name. I hope we can be friends Noah. Maybe even best friends." It felt confusing to me. At one point I thought there was a main character named Noah. Was my mind really hooked on magic when I was little? Was I really talking to six mares on a TV screen? Now that I think about it, the only time me and my mother would watch TV together is when we were watching a movie. This whole thing is becoming mind boggling the more I watch. Especially when the end of the pilot episode looked so different and longer from when I saw it. DVD: The viewer is outside of town and Pinkie Pie pops out of nowhere and starts talking rapidly. "Isn't this exciting? Are you excited cause I'm excited I've never been so excited, well, except for the time that I went-" She gasped before resuming as an iris wipe closes the cartoon. "but I mean really-" Recording: The viewer is outside of town and the main six characters appear on the screen. "That was quite an adventure wouldn't you say Noah?" Twilight asked. There was silence before she resumed talking their faces now looking a bit concerned. "Aw don't be sad partner. This is just the first adventure you had with us," said Applejack. "Yeah and there'll be a lot more to be had with us awesome ponies," Rainbow Dash said as she hovered and grinned. "Don't think of this as goodbye darling," Rarity said. "Think of this as see you next time," Fluttershy said as she gave the warmest smile she could make. "Yeah and even when you're not watching us we'll always be looking out for a friend like you," smiled Pinkie Pie. "Remember this Noah," Twilight began. "There is magic in friendship even if you don't see it. As it states in Proverbs 18:24, A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." "You'll learn more as we go along for now we have to go. Come on give us a smile just to show us you can." Said Fluttershy. "That's a good boy. Goodbye for now Noah." Fluttershy said as she waved. The others followed suit. "Later Alligator," waved Rainbow. "So long Partner" said Applejack waving her hat. "Enjoy your day Darling," Rarity waved. "So long new bestie," Pinkie said bouncing. "See you next time Noah," Twilight said as an iris wipe closed the cartoon. I recalled hearing lots of bible quotes when I was a kid. I think most of them came from this show, at least how I saw it. Most of the old episodes I found in both DVD and online had no mentions of any human religion. To know about this feels odd. I now had so many more questions like how much time did I spent with them? What things about them do I really remember and more importantly why are my memories with them spotty? I have to find out. I don't know how but I must know why was it me that heard and saw these characters like this. I may not know much now but I do know this. My memory is these six mares are my guardian angels. I'll have to dig around more when I have time. For now I must sleep. I wonder if they're still watching over me to this day. Author's Note Yep another side project. I have to get my imagination organized at some point.
Watching over and overlookingJuly 15th I spent most of the day looking up information about the show. In my research I came across a lot of different things. This show had quite a huge impact when I was little. It had a fanbase just as big as any cultural Icon in entertainment. Of course it had stories and art work of questionable taste. From disturbing murder fics to hardcore content that was Identified as clop. But I would rather not go into that detail at this time. I looked into the publisher on the DVD. It was from a company that was known for packaging complete cartoon series into DVDs. From the vintage cartoon shorts of Felix the Cat to the modern day cartoons of the recent Sonic shows. They're still active to this day. However when I looked back through the end credits of the DVR recordings. I saw a small label that was different than the actual credits on the DVD. The publisher on the Recordings was by some group called Salvation. I tried looking up to see if it was some studio, company, or even some internet group that liked to make ripoffs or something. There were no records what so ever. Anyway I'd also looked up more episodes online and of course I had to compare and contrast some scenes from the actual episodes to the old recordings. Actual Episode: Twilight Sparkle and Princess Celestia stood at the top of the stairs greeting ponies as they approached. "Princess! I've been so excited to spend time with you and—" However Twilight was interrupted as more ponies approached. "Yes. Me too, Twi-" Celestia then looked down at the approaching guest. "oh, good evening! Welcome to the Gala. Which is why I-" Two more mares approached. "ladies! Lovely to see you again," Celestia said as she bowed. Twilight sighed in disappointment. "Looks like getting a chance to talk to the Princess is gonna be a magic trick in itself." Recording: As Princess Celestia greeted ponies, Twilight sneaked away. She was soon found in an empty hallway away from the crowd. She then looked to the viewer and sighed. "I know it's sometimes hard, not spending enough time with someone you love. But understand deep down your mother loves you despite the hardships you both face. Proverbs 31:25 states that she is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." There was silence for a moment before Twilight continued. "Trust me I promise you she'll be there when you need her the most. But even if she isn't there we'll be with you. Now how about we see how Rainbow Dash is getting on with Spitfire?" I remember how my Mom was always busy as she was the breadwinner for the house. But that lost memory was nothing compared to the one I also learned how it wasn't just her being too busy to play with me. Actual Episode: "We are gathered here today to once again honor the heroism of these six friends who stood up to the villain Discord and saved Equestria from eternal chaos," announced Princess Celestia as the crowd cheered for the six mares. Recording: The scene opened with the six mares in a donut shop celebrating their victory over Discord. They soon at some point turned to the viewer. "Even when things look bad you must have resilience in times of despair Noah," Twilight said. "Yeah everyone has the capability to be strong even you," said Rainbow. There was silence before they all frowned. "Now Noah, don't be saying stuff like that," Said a soft but stern Applejack. "She's right, you may be small but we were all small at some point. But don't worry we can make you stronger, even if he tries to lay a hand on you," said Fluttershy. There was no ceremony when I first saw it. But that wasn't the important detail. "HE" Thanks to that, I just now remembered it wasn't always me and my Mom. I use to have a Dad but he died when I was an infant. My Mom later got remarried to a guy she met somewhere else. My only memories of my Stepdad were his scowl and the smell of alcohol on his breath. Other than that I don't remember much but all I know is one moment he was in the house the next day he was gone and it was just my Mom raising me ever since that time. Now that filled my head with more questions like How could I not remember something that seems horrific? Did my Stepdad do things to me? Was I so traumatized that I blocked out my memory? More importantly what do the ponies and my Mom know? Tomorrow when I get off work I'll finish watching and comparing season two and get started with the third season. Something tells me the answers to my questions will come to me. It excites me but it also worries me at the same time. I hope it will all be worth it in the end. Somehow I have a feeling they are watching me somehow.
Scars of ChangeJuly 16th If there is one thing about people I know is that we all have scars that tell stories. Whether it being physical wounds or emotional trauma. I have some scars too, but I forgotten where exactly I got them. I questioned my Mom about it when I was a teenager. She just told me I "was always playing rough as a toddler." Somehow I feel like that isn't true and the recordings further cement this. In a season three episode they broke character completely. Recording: Most of the main characters were outside Fluttershy's cottage, talking about Discord. "Personally, I think we should come up with a backup plan, in case this whole 'befriending' business doesn't work out," Rainbow Dash suggested. "Rainbow Dash is right. This is Discord we are talking about, girls. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have another trick up our sleeves," Agreed Rarity. Twilight Sparkle thought for a moment. "And I think I know just the..." she trailed off as her eyes looked like they were following something or someone. The viewer then saw Applejack knocked on the door softly. Fluttershy came out quietly. For some reason Discord was nowhere to be seen. All six characters looked towards the viewer. "Will he be back in a short while or a long time?" Twilight asked. Were they watching me? Was I the only one in the house? I assumed any kid at that time, like me, would either be excited or scared to be home alone. I barely remember that. Recording: The mares looked to the viewer with concerned expressions. "Noah, you're a very brave and strong child in God's eyes." The mares soon looked surprised for a second. "Darling it's ok if you didn't listen," said Rarity who looked liked she was trying to calm someone down. Applejack looked on with a soft yet stern face. "Partner, do you remember what we would do if you're ever afraid?" There was silence before they smiled and continued. "Yes Noah, we can help you," began Twilight as her face now became serious. "But you must do exactly what we say and you must be very careful." Was I really left alone at a young age? I know my Mom worked and my Dad most likely went out to do his own thing. Could they even afford a babysitter? With how I'm seeing this episode, the answers are becoming clearer, yet I feel a pit forming in my stomach. What did we do? Recording: The ponies looked like they were looking down at something while in the library. "Quite a common piece he carries," Rainbow said with her hooves crossed. "It's small but deadly, yet it should be easy to take apar-" Twilight said before her friends suddenly looked scared. "No no no Noah, don't pick it up again. Just leave it there on the table and let me just see," she finished as her horn glowed. After what felt like five minutes her horn stopped glowing. "Now that it's in pieces we should hide them somewhere and hope he doesn't go looking for them and use them for harm," She suggested. Another brief moment of silence came until Pinkie let out a giggle. "Silly Noah, we can't put a piece in your toy chest." "She's right darling maybe you should hide a piece in a far part of underneath your bathroom sink," Rarity suggested. Fluttershy then pointed to something. "At least put whatever piece is heavy back in the box so it would at least feel like there's something inside." There was another brief silence before Twilight beamed. "Good idea Noah, but if you're gonna hide most of them like that, you must act fast and at least bury them where he can't see the spot from a window." My god. Did my Stepdad owned a weapon? Did I actually dug a hole in the backyard? How was I able to do it? I could barely lift a shovel at that age. Maybe I used my hands. Recording: The characters quickly gathered in a place where Celestia and Discord stood like statues. "Not only are you getting more resilience but you are getting smarter as well. We're so proud of you," said Twilight. "But don't worry even if he finds other ways to hurt you, we'll always be your guardian angels and we will fight for you," said Rainbow with a look of determination. Now I remember more about him. In case it wasn't obvious my Mom met him in a bar. He was always drinking either at home or in the bar. Whenever he had a bad day he would take it out on Mom and sometimes out at me when I happen to unfortunately get in his way. It was at this moment realization struck me and I dug up a recording of the episode titled "Magical Mystery Cure" it was the ending I was after. Recording: Twilight and her friends were in Canterlot celebrating her coronation. Twilight waved at the crowd from her chariot before facing the viewer. "Thank you Noah, it does feel wonderful but you look sad for some reason." Another brief pause before she smiled warmly. "Noah I understand things are happening very fast," she began. "But you must understand change is inevitable and I know it's scary but in Deuteronomy 31:6 it says be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." There was another pause before she nodded. "Yes Noah we will never forsake you, even if you don't see us." I have to know more. What happened that made my Stepdad disappeared? Did they do something? Maybe I should consider taking a trip to Missouri for answers.
Events of ConsequencesJuly 20th I had to take time off work saying it was to deal with some personal issues of which I'd rather not go into. My boss was very understanding and allowed it. I spent all of the next couple of days travelling to my old home town in Missouri. On the train there, I played some more episodes on a DVD player. Most of what it was in season four and beyond were just wholesome memories and life lessons. Though there was one thing I did notice. The secondary and background characters in the recording either stood like statues or just looked at the main characters like they were crazy when ever they spoke to me. They didn't seem to acknowledge me. The only episode that was the most normal compared to the actual release was "Slice of life." I wasn't surprised since that episode involves the background characters. However at the end the main six did speak to me briefly. Recording: After seeing the wedding inside town hall. The main characters turned to the viewer. "Sorry we couldn't hang out today Noah," Twilight began, "but we didn't want you to see this fight. It could've ended badly." "Actually maybe we could've record it. I thought it was awesome," Rainbow said before Pinkie lightly jabbed her in the side making her wince slightly. There was a brief pause before Twilight spoke again smiling wider. "That's good of you. It's important to learn from others every now and then. In Philippians 3:17, it encourage us to join in following his example and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us." "But as your guardian angels we're still your teachers in a way. Consider today like a substitute teacher," Pinkie said. After traveling by train I took an Uber and I surprised my Mom. She was so happy to see me. It felt good to be home. I told her I was taking some time off to visit. Fortunately my old bedroom is still in tact. No pony merch but there were old posters of steam trains and muscle cars. When she wasn't looking I went out to the backyard that had a patch of grass that didn't exactly match the rest of the yard. I dug it with a shovel to see parts of a gun. I only found a few small rods, springs and a magazine. The frame and the slide were missing. Maybe I put those in the box where he keeps it. Later that night after my Mom went to bed I snuck up to the attic and did a bit of digging. I soon found a box that was labeled 'Noah's childhood'. Immediately I opened it up to find drawings of me and the ponies. There were also bits of other merchandise from plush toys to tiny plastic figures. But the strangest thing so far was a file that had printed screenshots of news articles. I read one of them using the light on my phone since the attic's light bulb was burnt out. MAN BRUTALLY ATTACKED IN HIS HOME. WITNESSES SAW STRANGE FIGURES. Last night around 1 AM, a 9-1-1 call came claiming what the caller described as screaming coming from his next door neighbor's house. Another two witnesses, also neighbors, claimed they saw silhouettes of the possible intruders in the windows but couldn't make out any other characteristics. Police responded, but despite the fast response the suspects got away. However the police found no signs of forced entry or even an exit. They soon found the victim, Eric Ridgeworth, heavily injured, but alive in his living room. His limbs were twisted in a way that would be described as severe, and he had multiple wounds all over his body. However despite surviving the horrific attack he endured, he was left in a catatonic state after arriving and being treated at the hospital. We spoke to several people in the area and they all shared responses that Eric was always described as "Drunk," "Angry", and "Abusive" towards his family. At first the police suspected the entire street may have played a role in the attack but their alibies checked out and the wife confirmed none of them had a part and that the voices of the intruders didn't sound like them. She described the intruders as all female due to their voices. She claims it had to have been six. She spent all of last night hiding in her bedroom worried for her son who was asleep throughout the duration of the entire night. She tried calling the for help but the phone line was cut. Eric is currently in the Hospital but it is unknown at this time if he'll ever make a full recovery. If anyone has any information about the suspects please contact your local law enforcement. I wanted to read more but I had to sleep. The next day I told my Mom I had to go back to Chicago and I was taking the box of my childhood with me. She smiled and told me she wanted to give me something to go with it. She went to her room and came back with something in a small case. It was a blank DVD. It had a tape label that said 'Night of the Angels.' I looked at her as if I was asking her if she knew the real reason why I was here. She just kissed my cheek and told me "they miss you too." That's all she said before she closed the front door as my Uber pulled up ready to take me to the station. I'm currently on the train home writing this. When I get back to my apartment I'll play it. For now I might as well watch and compare season seven. Looking at the plush of Twilight Sparkle I have a feeling that whatever happened that night, might've been the night of a big change in my life. Maybe I can get my final answers into how I forgot and where did they go.
A Devil's NightmareJuly 21st I came back home. I was close to finishing the eighth season when the train pulled into the station. I went on back to my apartment feeling both excited and scared. This disc my Mom gave me is what I'll watch before I get to the rest of the show. My heart is pounding in my chest as I inserted the disc into the computer. I hit open and it looked like an actual DVD menu with background music and of course the main six bunched together in that signature group photo. It only had one option and that was play. After taking a deep breath, I clicked play. The scene opened up in a suburban neighborhood in fact some would assume this was taking place in the Equestria Girls world. However the scene then cut to a familiar house. It had a mailbox that had the name Ridgeworth on it. The scene then cut to a bedroom where a little boy was crying as he slept. In the background one could hear the sound of something walking on the floor. The scene cut to another room where two adults were in bed. The boy's crying could be softly heard. A man stood up while his wife turned over. Her forehead had a band aid on it. She looked up to her husband with worry. "Honey? What are you going to do?" She asked with worry. "I'm going to fix it," he said in a voice that sounded intimidating as he walked to the door. The wife immediately got up and grabbed his arm. "Eric Please! He can't help it!" She begged. "Get off me!" Eric snapped as she shoved her to the ground. "That brat really needs to learn to zip it or lose it." The wife could only hold back her sobs as her husband shut the door. She then crawled to a window. The moon casted a glow in the room. She got on her knees and put her hands in a prayer posture. "Lord in heaven above..." The scene then cut to Eric pulling what looked like a small box out of a drawer. In the background something moved in the dark hallway. He grinned as he pulled out a Glock. "This'll put the fear of god in him," he said before actually feeling the gun. "What? Why does it feel so-" Suddenly a creaking of floorboards was heard in another room. He snapped his head in the direction of the sound. "Who's there?!" There was no reply. He followed where the sound came from. It was coming from near the entrance of the house. The moment Eric was about to look out the front window when suddenly something fast and blue shoved him violently out of the room. It looked liked it struck him faster than a truck. He went rolling into a wall. A shadow stretched across him. The viewer can't see what is in front of Eric. But the shadows on the wall behind him resemble ponies. Eric pulled out his gun and tried to pull the trigger. Terrified he looked only to see not only the magazine gone but many parts as well. The scene then cut back to the child bedroom. The child looked like he stopped crying and was sleeping soundly. A pair of yellow hooves pulled the blanket over his chest to make him more comfortable. The child's sleeping face soon went from a slight frown to a smile. Outside the room Eric was running through the hallway with a slight limp. Two figures that were orange and blue followed after him fast. It then cut back to the sleeping child. As he slept their were sounds of things breaking and voices being raised. Despite the horrific noise the child continued to sleep. The screen then cut to black for a minute. Then all of a sudden we see the face of Eric screaming in agony. His face was covered in bruises and was bleeding from certain places. It went on for a few seconds until it cut back to the child. We then see a full view of his bed. The door opened and six colorful figures walked in. It was them, the main six. They all gathered around the bed watching the child. Twilight Sparkle inched closer and kissed the little boy on the head. "Do not weep my friend, he won't lay a fearful hand on you ever again." The six continued to watch over the child. However the distance sound of a police car's siren was heard and the red and blue lights slowly started to blink across the room from the nearby window. The ponies did nothing but instead slowly faded away like ghost. Smiles never leaving their faces. The screen faded to black. No credits were playing but only these words appeared on screen. "We love you Noah." I couldn't believe what I saw. It's like they came out of the TV and they fought my Stepdad. Now I remember what happened after that. The memory of the aftermath came surging through me like a freight train. After the evidence of the abuse and rather have Child Protective Services try and take me away, my Mom immediately divorced him and instantly won custody of me thanks to the help of the community. The events of what happened that night are still a mystery but I know now what happened and I have a feeling my Mom does too. I did some more digging on the internet and found out he was in a mental hospital after attempting to attack a doctor. Last I heard he's still in there to this day. This still only leaves these last few questions. What happened to them after all that? Why and how did I forget them? The answer came in Season nine. The final season of the entire show. Another difference I noticed was that the character Cozy Glow was actually redeemed and placed in Starlight's care. But that's not important. What is important is what happened in the very last scene of the finale. Recording: The main six were in the castle of friendship. Despite the victory against evil they all looked sad for some reason. Twilight then turned to the viewer. "Oh no Noah, we are glad that the battle is over," Twilight began. "And yes I'm more confident to take the throne, but I'm afraid we have some bad news." "Darling I'm afraid this will be our last chapter we can share with you," Rarity said. "No no honey, it ain't something you did, it's just well..." Applejack trailed off, unsure what to say. "It's a lot of grown up knowledge but to explain it simply, it's like the battery in your toys," Pinkie began. "As long as they have juice you can still play. But I'm afraid this battery is dying and it is one you can't replace." There was a brief silence before Rainbow spoke up, "listen little buddy, we were a gift from Heaven to help you but all things have to go back to heaven at some point." There was another pause before Fluttershy spoke up. "And you're our best friend too but you're growing up and sometimes we need to move on and we think it's also time you make your own adventures." There was one more brief pause before Twilight spoke up carrying a warm smile while the others looked surprised. "That's very thoughtful of you Noah." "What?! Twilight you can't be serious!" Rainbow snapped. "Its his choice besides you want him missing us too much? You don't want watch him being depressed do you?" Twilight asked. The others looked to Noah and eventually nodded. They all looked like they were about to cry. "Darling I pray one day you'll remember us," Rarity said. "Yeah and who knows we might hang out again. Eventually..." Rainbow said while fighting back her tears. "Come on girls lets not do this in front of him lets smile so that will be the last thing he sees," Twilight suggested. The main six bunched together and despite the heavy emotions they smiled as Twilight's horn glowed. "You may not remember all the adventures we had, but the lessons you learned you'll never forget like this last one from Thessalonians 5:23. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. " "Amen," everyone said. "Goodbye Noah, we love you too," said Twilight. I couldn't hold back I had tears streaming down my face. Everything is now clear. I asked them to make me forget so that I can go through life as well as I could. Never have I ever forgot the lessons though. Sure what happened to my Stepdad was horrifying but its not like he didn't deserve it. Now I have a new objective. I'll have to do it tomorrow for now I must sleep. I got to get back to work at some point.
Angel's DescentJuly 22nd Everything is clear and the memories are set in stone. After more research, I came to a rather unique conclusion. They were only able to speak to me through broadcast. Since I can't convince a television channel to put it back on I may have an idea that feels insane. I'm going to live stream one of the recordings. This might be my only way to see them again. These angels have helped me and I don't think I properly thanked them. Maybe if this works we can hang out like old times. This world is a cruel place but maybe just maybe they can light it up again and give my world color. Part of me is hoping if this doesn't work then all of this would've been a dream of some kind. But my heart feels it's true. They were always there making sure I smiled. Recording: Rainbow Dash makes funny faces at the viewer while two guards stand outside Sugarcube Corner in the background. Rainbow stopped then laugh. "I don't get it. If I make you laugh how come they can't laugh?" There was a pause before Rainbow sighed. "You're right they are too good, I'm bored." Even when I couldn't sleep at night the TV was on and they were willing to have a sleepover with me. Recording: Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity were reading a book in a barely lit room. The three mares turned to the viewer. "We can stay as long as you want us to Noah," Twilight said. "Maybe a bedtime story is all you need," Rarity suggested. "How about a lullaby?" Applejack asked. Of course there were also the life lessons I needed as well. It was because of them I wasn't afraid of snakes or spiders anymore. Recording: Fluttershy had a small spider on her hoof as she looked to the viewer. "Some creatures may look scary but sometimes they bite when they feel threatened, just like us." The spider jumped off before Fluttershy continued. "We can be like them too Noah. We can prove we're not deadly." They were my friends who knew how to make me feel special. They were each the little pictures that made a huge portrait for me. Recording: Pinkie sat in a lawn chair near a lake she took a sip of lemonade, "I hope you're having as much fun as we are Noah." This could be my last journal entry for a while. For now I have a chance to take. I hope this stream works. I had it set to private to avoid unwanted attention. Here goes nothing. I closed my notebook and turned to my computer. With a deep breathe I pressed stream and clicked play. I picked a random episode from beyond season four because of Twilight's wings and castle. The scene opened up with a huge set of doors and there she was. One of my angels. Twilight Sparkle stepped out of her castle. "Hmm... Thats strange something is different," she said. Just then Rainbow Dash and Applejack entered the scene. "Hey Twilight does something feel different about today?" Rainbow asked as she landed. "Yeah it feels like we're being watched," said Applejack looking around. Slowly the other three came and were just as confused. After finding my voice, I spoke. "Girls?" That got their attention as they all looked to the viewer. "Pinkie is this a new friend?" "No?" Pinkie said nervously. "Oh my god... Girls its me Noah I'm here," I said. All six mares gasped. Some put their hooves to their mouths. There was a brief silence before I spoke. "Do you all remember me?" I asked nervously. There was a brief silence Twilight stood motionless until she closed her eyes for a moment before she smiled and looked at me. "We're so happy to see you Noah." All mares got closer to the screen and they each placed a hoof on the screen. Each mare smiling with a tear in their eyes. "Just look at how well you've grown," she said. I slowly placed a hand on the screen. Most of the hooves were touching a finger tip with Twilight Sparkle's touching my palm. "I have lots to catch you up on," I said. "Then lets get this reunion party started," Pinkie said. I couldn't be more happy as I was now back with my little ponies or rather my guardian angels. Author's Note This may feel like the end but call it the end of a season. Season two will feature some surprise guest.
ForsakenJanuary 5th 2040 Things were on the upside with me for a while. Everyday after work we talk together and hangout. It was a perfect escape from the troubles of the outside world. Whenever I had a bad day they were there to make me smile. Even when I didn't want them near they would appear on the screen and just like magic I would need them again. We had a wonderful time celebrating the holidays. Heck even the recordings say Halloween rather than Nightmare Night. Christmas was an even wonderful time. We couldn't really give each other gifts for obvious reason but we would sing to each other. They seemed to like my singing voice. However on New Years Day, when I woke up and went to the computer screen. They were gone. I tried calling out to them but they didn't respond. All I could see were the various backgrounds and the many secondary and background characters walking and doing their own thing. I soon learned their names and tried calling out to them. I tried Spike, Sweetie Belle, Derpy, Lyra, Celestia, and even Discord. None of them gave me a response. I don't understand this. Where did they go? If they went somewhere why didn't they tell me? Did I do something wrong? I was holding out hope. I left the stream running in the hope they come back. However today I finally got a response but not the one I was hoping for. The castle doors opened and there was a pony I didn't recognize. Whoever this is he's not one of them. This Alicorn Stallion had a grey coat, blue mane, and what's weirder he had bits of red and black on some parts of his body. He looked like a weirdly made OC. It was then five more ponies eventually showed up. A dark blue pegasus mare, an overweight dark green earth pony stallion, a yellow pegasus stallion with black stripes on some parts, a white unicorn stallion with a red mane, a white earth pony stallion with bits of green and red on his coat. I was shocked by this. I tried calling out to them but they seemed to ignore me. I know they're listening to me. They just acted out the episode 'Castle Mania' and they did a pour job at doing it. Stream: "When I was just a fil - uh I mean colt," The dark green pony said to the blue mare. "Granny Smith told me of an ancient legend. When Nightmare Moon was banished, not every last bit of her dark magic went with her. Granny used to say, when night falls on the castle, that magic takes the form of... Unicr- uh the Pony of Shadows!" The mare looked a bit nervous before speaking. "You mean like-" The screen paused before The mare moved by herself and tapped the pause button with her hoof. All the while giving the viewer a stern look. "-a ghost," she finished. I'm scared right now. I know they can hear me but to control the stream too is something else entirely. I felt sick watching this. Maybe tomorrow they'll go away and the main will be back. Maybe they're on vacation and forgot to tell me right? They have to be substitutes right? I think I'm losing my mind. This has to be a bad dream. Author's Note It should be easy to assume who these new ponies are.
Technical DifficultiesJanuary 6th They didn't leave. They're still there on the stream. Those five stallions and one mare are still where my angels are suppose to be. That grey and blue stallion is the only one doing a good job at acting like he's the bookworm of the group. I eventually came to learn the characters names were Optimum, Fixed Ratchet, Bulk Load, Bumblebee, RC, and Jack Hammer. Despite their names sounding a little familiar I know they Don't belong in this show. For that reason I couldn't take it anymore. I had to cut the stream and it worked. Perhaps a little too well. Stream: The six strange ponies were in a train car discussing the mystery of the baked pastries that were eaten. Optimum addresed the group after the case was solved. "Well, everypony, we finally have the mystery sol-" Optimum stopped as his eyes looked towards the viewer in surprise. The five other characters looked to the viewer as well. Pony Joe, Gustave, and Mulia looked in other places motionlessly. It was like those three became statues. Fixed Ratchet the red and white Unicorn was the first to speak up. "You're the one airing this?!" Jack Hammer the white earth Stallion approached the viewer and looked around. "This ain't some fancy TV station how are you doing this?" The Blue mare RC flew up to the viewer and lightly shoved Jack Hammer out of the way. "Who are you? Why did you put the show back on? Are you with Hasbro or Salvation?" I got a little scared again but soon calmed down and explained myself. I then told them I'm friends with Twilight and her crew and I want them to bring them back but then Optimum surprised me as he spoke in a smooth voice. Stream: "We're trying to find them? What do you think you're doing?" Long story short the train pulled into Canterlot. Instead of going to a dessert contest like as planned they went to Twilight's old library where much to my surprise, Spike was there. They told me they were from a different place entirely with mostly different names. For once Spike acknowledged my presence. Not sure why now but to me that wasn't important right now. The group were going through old books. I think since they now know they are 'off the air' they can do whatever they want. Stream: "There's gotta be something in here that can help," Bulk said as he threw another book behind him. Spike who was nearby watched everything. "Uh I doubt you guys would find anything here." Optimum approached the the dragon. "Do you believe there is maybe a reason or even a theory into why she left?" "I'm not really suppose to talk about it," Spike said nervously. "Sure but this is an exception. We need to use every bit of knowledge we can use," Optimum said. "Oh in that case I think I may have something," said Spike as he left the room for a bit and came back with a scroll. The others gathered around him. "As Twilight Sparkle's number one assistant I often get visions bestowed upon me in my sleep. I sometimes doodle them for fun. This came to me on New Years day," he said as he unrolled the scroll to reveal a drawing of six winged humans wearing armor and had halos. The group examined the drawing. "What could this have to do with their disappearance," RC asked. "I guess Twilight still likes to help people who can't help themselves," Spike replied. Optimum sighed, "that's just like them, their work is never done," he said before turning to the viewer. "Listen carefully we can only get little done with magic and hooves. This could work better in a place with more depth. You can stream anything on here right?" They want me to go and obtain an episode of a show they are really from. Luckily I found one. No wonder their colors and voices sound familiar. Their real names are Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Bulkhead, Arcee, and Wheeljack. Bumblebee's name is still the same. Good thing I have a day off tomorrow. Something tells me I'll be up all night with these guys. But it will be worth it because I must find them. I have to trust the Autobots.
Beyond the VeilThe show was pretty interesting. I did have an interest in 3D computer animation. But I'm not here to discuss that. The show opened up in a cave like base. The human characters from the intro were absent and I believe we won't see the Decepticons. Because they're not the biggest issues. Stream: The six autobots were looking up at a screen that had the same drawing Spike showed them. Optimus Prime began explaining them. "The six angelic figures were warriors that were rumored to have once been humans that lived on earth. It was unknown who exactly they once were or how they died." There was a brief silence until Ratchet spoke up, looking at the viewer. "Yes Noah, we were once human long ago but we rather not focus too much on our past lives," he said. "When a human enters heaven they are free to do what they want," began Optimus. "That includes becoming reincarnated as anything or anyone they choose." "And it seems these six girls chose to become cartoon ponies that speak to a viewer," said Arcee. "Don't know why they would break character for you. Were you something really special to those girls?" Wheeljack asked the viewer. Another pause before Optimus closed his eyes and sighed. "If we want to have any hope of reaching them we must use what knowledge we can get. Explain the concept of this live stream and how different it is to Television broadcast." I managed to explain everything about livestreaming and the platform I used. We slowly began to come up with a plan. In order to have any chance of finding at least one of the angels we have to air as many screens as possible. For all we know they could be in a dark void that is infinite. Stream: A big portal known as a ground bridge opened up emitting a big green glow. Optimus Prime turned to his team. "I'll go and find them with Noah's help. The rest of you stay here and keep the connection stable." Optimus turned to the viewer. "Lets roll." He saluted and transformed into a truck and charged into the portal. I had three monitors operating. I know this would put a strain on the electric bill, but I don't care. This could be our only shot. All monitors are showing random pictures from different cartoons and every once in a while I see Optimus Prime appearing in these images. At one point he started calling out their names. I soon joined in. We must have been calling their names for what felt like hours. It was becoming hopeless until we finally got a response. Optimus called out while standing in a neighborhood cul-de-sac on one of the monitors. "Twilight! Where are you?" "Optimus?" a voice sounded from one of the monitors. Optimus immediately ran to the side of the screen and started banging on the side with his metal fist. "Twilight is that you?" The screen of the monitor next to his was showing a 3d environment of an empty big train station. I think it was a place in Thomas and friends. I then saw a familiar alicorn walk onto the screen. "Twilight! Over here!" I called. "Noah?! Where are you guys?" she asked looking scared "Optimus is in Ed Edd n Eddy and I'm still in my apartment," I explained. "Girls! Noah Found us!" Twilight called and on then that same monitor started showing multiple windows. There I saw them. My angels in different animating formats. They were in different shows. I recognized them from the backgrounds. Rainbow was in Sonic Boom, Fluttershy was in Pokémon, Applejack was in the Loud House, Rarity was in Regular Show, and Pinkie was in what looked like a vintage Mickey Mouse Cartoon. Steamboat Willie I think. I regained my voice as I asked them an important question. "Girls, where did you go?" Author's Note To be concluded...
Prayer For HopeAll I could do was stare at them as their screens occasionally glitched. The backgrounds were slowly fading away and they slowly reverted to their original animated designs. Eventually they were all in a blank white background. Eventually I found my voice as I asked them. "Girls? Why did you leave?" "Noah...We're so sorry," Twilight said sadly. "He's fine you girls. Are you all Okay?" Optimus asked. "We...don't know," Fluttershy said quietly. "We left because of the stream," began Rarity. "We may have set your private stream to public after Christmas." "Yeah and Immediately people were asking us questions and not just these so call bronies but people who are going through tough times. Some even say we were the best form of emotional support AI ever," Said Rainbow. That's when it hit me. They were trying to help people and fans on the internet. I practically exposed them to the void that is the internet. "So this is my fault..." I muttered. "Woah there partner no it aint," Applejack said. "It's our fault we didn't tell you." "You're so capable now Noah," began Twilight. "We were your gift from heaven. We wanted to give back to a world where we lost our way and lost our lives." "So wait you really were once human? What happened to you girls? Heck are your names even real?" I asked still feeling scared. "We never knew each other but yes," began Fluttershy. "We died either by accident or suicide. But somehow we gained a second chance thanks to heaven and salvation." "Salvation? The publishing group? What is that?" I asked. "Salvation was a group of people dedicated to bringing back the spirits of heaven in order to properly educate people on faith and help people through the power of animation. However it is up to the character reincarnation to decide what people they want to help," explained Optimus. "Even we Autobots had someone we had to guide through the hardships of life." "As for our names we chose to adopt these names rather than remember our old human ones. But I think we are getting off topic darling," Rarity said. "She's right are you girls alright? Do you want me to come to you?" asked Optimus. "We don't know. They are so many voices calling us. It isn't like before Prime," explained Twilight. "Yeah and the next thing we knew we found ourselves in a big void wandering through different cartoons," Pinkie said. "It’s the Internet. The live stream might as well have caught the attention of millions of people," I said. Optimus stroked his chin. "You seem to know your way around this platform, we can barely comprehend it ourselves." "We've adapted before," Pinkie said. "Yeah, but we had help from an entire team of people," Applejack said. The six mares turned to me. "Would it bother you Noah, that we are not the same ponies you remember? I know you needed us but if I'm being honest there were times when...we needed you too." "We did one time say we were not flawless," smirked Rainbow. "You six were never flawless," I said. "You were my angels who were there when I needed you." The mares and robot stared at me for a short minute before Twilight smiled the warmest smile I ever saw. "And now you can do the same." We must have spent another hour or two talking about the livestream concept and now we have a plan. Optimus did at one point returned to his show where we watched him debrief his team. "Young man, I trust you will do your part and make sure these mares continue to help people in need. They can still talk to you but like other people they need time to explore," Optimus explained. I nodded and turned to my angels on the other monitor. "Don't worry as long we still see each other some time we can help so many people with an organized stream and proper planning." "This will be so much fun!" Pinkie exclaimed as she jumped. I then turn to Optimus who was with his team standing by a green portal in the background. "Will we ever see you again?" "Noah, I do not know. We now want to find our old friend again. Like you she was a child that was living in a dark world. But thanks to you we might have a chance to find her again. If we never see you again, look to the stars at night and think of some of them as our souls," Optimus said before turning to his team. "Time to see if our friend has become a strong woman. Autobots Transform and Roll out!" Just like that they were gone and their screen went black. I then turned my angels. "You girls ready? Remember no wandering into the void without telling me and not with out a clear path back here." "Don't worry Noah, we'll always be with you," said Twilight as my mouse hovered over the start button. "Promise?" I asked. "Always," she said as I clicked the mouse. LIVE STREAM STARTED The End... Author's Note Not my best story but I tried. This was made out of boredom and inspiration from the Angel Hare. I wonder if East patch will make another season.
