There is never really anything going on in the world, so excitement is hard to get nowadays, since my father passed away just about a week and a half ago. Ever since my mother abandoned us a couple of years ago, I decided to keep looking after him every hour of everyday, giving him what he needs; food, drinks, I even went out to the shop for him. My mother left when I was only thirteen-years-old, after that, I had decided to get a job at that age to pay our rent and other taxes. My life hasn’t been good in the past nine years, but it was bearable at least. Now I am on my own in my father’s home, with nothing to do. I went down the main stairwell after I got my average cheap clothing on and took a shower, brushed my teeth, done all that. Anyway, I went down the stairs to sit down in my only recliner in the house, switching on the television to watch the international news channel: Sky News. There was nothing interesting on the news. However, I just found out that there was a great tsunami in Japan after an apparent earthquake hit the coast. It was pretty shocking; It was sad, but I had more important things to do. I was just about to switch off the television when I began to notice a strange light cascading from the front windows into the main living area; it intrigued me. I work at a local office in the centre of town, I get paid minimum wage, but it is my job and I appreciate that they took me in after one of their previous staff got fired for stealing money. I was originally planning to switch off the television and then going to grab my pre-prepared briefcase for work, but after I noticed this odd light, I just had to check it out. I forgot about being on schedule to get to work, but being distracted is a pain in the ass. I left the front entrance; locking the door behind me. I began to wonder around the whole block to check on the source of the light, it may have been either a car, or just myself being crazy. I kept going around the block from what I remember was about three times; until I noticed a light emerging from the main alley in the street block. I stood there, staring at the light for approximately five seconds as I hesitated to move. Suddenly, the light went at a very fast speed towards my home. Oh God, what is it going to do? My house could blow up! I began to thought as I run after the paranormal light. I was running as fast as I ever could. As the light entered the front window of my now empty house, I was about twenty metres away. When I finally reached the front entrance; I immediately began to open it, dropping my keys several times in the process. Alas, as I open the door (almost breaking it in) I began to run into the main living area. As nothing was there, I was baffled at the site of my front room just the same without the lights on. After about five minutes of just standing in my main living area looking confused; I heard a noise (almost like a rustle) coming from my small dining area. What the hell was that... I thought to myself as I grabbed something from the my pocket, it was my dad’s old gun i kept with me. As I stayed close to the walls; gun in my grasp. As I began to hear was I presume were footsteps on the floorboard of the dining area, I began to panic. As I was about to literally shoot the gun at the source of footsteps, a figure emerged from the other entrance of the dining area. I was shocked at the magnificent sight. I blinked a few times confused at what I thought I saw. I placed the gun on a coffee table and turned around rubbing my forehead. “ This cannot be really happening Princess Celestia is made up… it make no flip’n sense , when I turn around I am not going to see a talking Alicorn in my hallway … one … two… three… ” opening my eyes I am face to muzzled with a white multicolored Alicorn aka Princess Celestia… I felt like fainting right there and then backing away slowly I reached for the gun, but it was lifted by itself …for some reason i felt like obwian was saying ‘Use the Force Luke’ …snapping out of my self induced meme. I watch the gun be taken apart by a golden force field holding it in the air. Now more scared than ever realizing I was going to brony hell for this. I prayed this was a dream I thought to myself “There is no need to be scared Damian i am not here to harm you” Celestia said in a calm gentle tone “And there is no such place as brony hell” She added i gave a nervous laugh as a way of saying i did not think there was even a place called that after the awkward laugh she kept smiling it calmed me down knowing that Celestia was not pissed or they're here to hurt me but what is she here for “Well if you are not here to hurt me then what are you here for Princess” I asked now calmer she took a deep breath i did not like where this was going i was back to pants shitting mode again i swear i think she is pulling a trollestia on me right now.....OH GOD DON’T LET HER GO MOLESTIA! “Damian i want to make a deal with you i know you never got to have a real childhood i have spoken to my faithful student and she agreed to adopt you so to speak you are welcome to come back to this world anytime you choose” Celestia said looking me right in the eyes i really wanted to do what Twilight did on the cutie mark chronicles episode but i did not want to seem stupid “Wait you're offering to take me to Equestria with you as a pony am i getting this right?” I asked in shock. “Yes i am you are wel-” she did not even get to finish before i interrupted her. “Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes please take me now!” I shouted bouncing like moron.....don’t judge me i know half of you would have done the same thing i mean come on. Celestia just laughed “Well then lets go.” She said after that there was a light it engulfed both of us then everything became peaceful,and had a serene calmness. When I awoke there was something off about me everything felt bigger and i felt smaller I looked down to see i had hooves not hands. Ok everypony i know i am making a new story big deal but i need a name should it be Nova or Dusk I think Nova Chapter 2: Adjusting Chapter 2: Adjusting Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ When I awoke there was something off about me everything felt bigger and i felt smaller I looked down to see I had hooves not hands.I looked around the room to see I was in canterlot castle my jaw dropped at the amazing sight “Welcome to Canterlot Damian.” Celestia said “Oh wow I can’t wait to throw you a BIG welcome party” A pink mare said I knew who it was right when I saw her “There is going to be cake,candy,games like pin the tail on the pony” Pinkie said trailing off “Well thank you Pinkie Pie” I said looking at her shocked face....holy crap i was able to shut Pinkie Pie up QUICK SOMEPONY RECORD THIS MOMENT IN HISTORY “Princess if it is alright with you i would like to change my name to something else” “What would you like your new name to be Damian?” Celestia asked looking into my eyes just looking at her eye’s is calming to me “Well i have thought of a few names and i would like to be renamed Nova i don’t know why but it seems suiting to me” I stated trying to look serious.....I looked goofy as hell “It fits you well, Nova.” Celestia said “I think it is a good name welcome to Equestria Nova” A lavender mare said looking at me next thing I knew the whole main six were standing right beside her “Nice to meet you. My name is Twilight Sparkle.” “I know that you are Twilight Sparkle and that is Fluttershy,Rarity,AppleJack,Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie” I said with a smug grin “Wow. How did you know all their names, Nova?” Twilight asked surprised I let out a little laugh which turned into a full blown laugh “What’s so funny?” Rainbow asked “He knows about us Rainbow Dash it seems funny to him because well i do not know why he is laughing like that” Celestia explained “But if i may speak with him alone I would appreciate that” She said over my laughter i swear the wrong pony might think I am high They six of them nodded and left Celestia and I alone so we could talk in private after a few minutes of tension I ran up and hugged her this was a shock to Celestia at first but she returned the hug using her wings as a barrier so to speak next thing I knew I sobbing into her chest “I know sometimes it is a little too much to take in all at once” Celestia said rubbing my back but I was not crying out of sadness it was pure happiness “Thank you Princess you don’t know how much this means to me being able just to be a kid i was never able to do that thank you” I said finally calming down a little Celestia smiled. “I was happy to help you, Nova.” “Well lets go on and I don’t know what now?” I asked slightly confused as the main six walked back in “Oh ya i kinda forgot you were here my bad” “Well I think it is time to go home” Twilight said levitating me up from my previous sitting position “Wait we are going to PonyVille right now?” I asked looking confused “Oh but of course darling do you think Twilight still lives here” Rarity said with a giggle “But Nova there is one thing you should know you are two or three years younger than as you call them in your world the CMC” Celestia said “And they have their cutie marks” I was in shock I did not know it had been three years here I guess the one day here is a year on earth thing is not true TAKE THAT FANFICS “Well that sucks” “Well umm lets go if you're ready that is” Fluttershy said to me trying to hide behind her mane it was so cute I just about died from the cuteness. The main six left after a while and I was with Twilight.standing there like it was an awkward silence contest it kinda felt like one until Twilight decided to break the silence thank goodness. “Well Nova are you ready to go to your new home?” Twilight asked me I am not going to lie I am a little scared but I know that they can be trusted I just nodded. “Yes Twilight. I am ready to see my new home.” I said while still nodding like an idiot until Twilight stopped my nodding and was I glad my head was starting to hurt with that all of us started walking to the train station. ______________________________________________________________________________ All of us got on the train and i gotta say it was HUGE well it might just be that i was now the size of a young colt now and the age of one now but either way it was so cool I would have ran in there but i was caught in a blue magical grip I look behind myself to see Rarity holding me in her magic it scared the heck out of me when she levitated me. “Not so fast darling you can’t go running about like a hooligan its very uncouth” Rarity said.....how did I know that is what she was going to say Oh wait now i know that is what she says to EVERYTHING! Rarity laughed then set me down in a seat on the train car.”What’s so funny?” I asked looking right at Rarity “Wait what is that smell.....it smells GREAT!” “Oh its just the food that they serve on here” Fluttershy said while looking right at me.....I wonder am I my OC pony I made I know that I am a unicorn but still that food smelled freaking AMAZING I WANT SOME! “Ya it is they have so many different things it is super duper yummy” Pinkie said bouncing right next to me I have to say though the short time I have been here I have been enjoying my time. “Yes it is if you're hungry then we can get some food BUT we have to wait until the train starts” Twilight said talking to me like I am a child........Never mind I know I am a child now but still I died a little inside when she spoke to me like that. “Wait so can you even use magic?” Rainbow Dash asked in my opinion that was a dumb question because well I am a young colt so who knows? “I don’t know. I mean I am still young so who knows” I said, looking at her “But I can try” I then started channeling magic to my horn......all it did was spark well I guess I will have to learn it. “Keep trying when we get home Nova.I am sure you will at least be able to levitate something” Twilight said as the train started to move I then stretched my legs I got to say walking on all fours is not that hard. “Ok good the train is moving can I get some food now please?” I asked jumping out of my seat shaking my head. “Sure, go ahead Nova.” Twilight said. “Twi don’cha think he should have some kinda adult supervision ah mean he is a foal now” AppleJack asked It sounded more like she was stating something to me but shaddup. “I’ll go with him. Come on Nova, lets get you some food.” Twilight said as she started trotting it took me a minute to realize it when it finally hit me I ran trying to catch up to her boy even when she walks she is fast! “Hey wait for me” I said running after Twilight as she stopped walking. “Sorry Nova!” Twilight said, slowing down as I caught up to her once again SHE IS FAST JUST WALKING! “Its fine Twilight you are fast” Once again she is fast I think its where I am young and I have stubby legs and she is tall! “i’ll help you with your problem, Nova.” She said and lifted me onto her back with her magic I gotta say it took a lot not to fall off which I almost fell off more than once gotta love that magic. “Thanks Twilight but how can you walk faster than me IT MAKES NO SENSE” I half shouted that last part BUT WHO CARES BECAUSE I DON’T FOOL! But still in a manner it is nice to be able to be carried and well I am enjoying being young again I am starting to like this already! But come on you can’t say if you got this offer you would not take it if you say no than you are a dumbass! But the only thing that I wondered was am I going to have a freaking bed-time now.If so that will suck and it is going to suck badly OH PLEASE DON’T LET ME HAVE A BEDTIME IF SO THEN LIFE WILL SUCK onto pressing manners my stomach is growling like I guess a timberwolf I don’t know pony language that well pardon me all i know is anypony or somepony so shaddup. “Nova please do not yell and it is simple you are shorter then me” Twilight explained wow having her explain things is really dull I wonder if I could mess with her a little by just talking about advanced still that would be funny. “Sorry Twilight I am not some little foal.......I don’t want to hear it from you” I stated once again trying to sound serious but utterly failing instead i look dumb again who cares as long as Rarity does NOT make me model for her then we are fine.”Either way I am happy as long as Rarity does not make me model clothing for her and for that matter Hey look food finally” Twilight just sighed and rolled her eyes What I had a short attention span as a child don’t blame me. ______________________________________________________________________________ It has finally reached around 8:30 at night and I was finding it IMPOSSIBLE to keep my eye’s open I was stumbling around like a child but still this sucks I felt like I was going to fall asleep any second.Next thing I knew I was levitated into what felt like a bed I looked and saw it had curtains than when I looked down I saw the others laying in beds it was then I noticed these were the beds from that one episode......Sorry i can’t remember but who cares only thing is I was too tired to even keep my eyes open next thing i knew I was sleeping. Chapter 3: Home,School Plans & Old FriendsFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I woke up to what felt like bouncing. Wait are we still on the train? Well, crap. It might be where I am being too lazy to open my eyes, who cares? All I know is sleep is good and being awake is bad. Uggg, Why am I even awake right now? Please somepony knock me out, I don’t care how. Just.....hit me in the head with a glass bottle or even a...that is all I can really think of. I talk to myself too much, these ponies might think I am crazy if they knew I was talking to myself. “Morning Nova.” Twilight greeted me seeing I had not opened my eyes yet I can’t help it ok? My eyes are sensitive to sunlight when I first wake up. “Nova are you going to open your eyes yet?” I wanted to answer, but I mean come on, I am thirsty. You know the feeling when you wake up, you are thirsty as hell! That is how I feel right now. I mean, I could go back to sleep OR I could reply to her in a timely fashion.”Nova are you alright?” “Huh? Yeah I am fine Twilight sorry about that. Just a little tired, that’s all.” I stated with a yawn which earned a giggle from Twilight. “What? It’s not funny and where are we anyway?” I finally decided to open my eyes. I never got to look at my eye color, I just realized that “Hey Twilight, what color are my eyes?” “They are lavender like mine. What, didn’t you know that?” Twilight said to me when I saw a tree I knew our location, it was the library. YES! I GET TO SEE IT, FINALLY....sorry when I get excited, I freaking yell. “Well we are here. The Princess only made one rule though.” “Wait, she did? Aww crap, what is it?” I asked hoping it was not a one screw up and you're gone rule, but either way I could not cause that much trouble, could I? Meh, who knows. It is me and I was always a good kid, so that is a big nope. “Princess Celestia said the one rule is she wants you to learn about the magic of friendship with me and send her reports.” Twilight said ruffling my mane as she sat my lazy flank on the couch. I gotta say, this place has a nice warm homey feeling to it. Homey, is that even a word? I gotta say even if it is not, I will use it. If you don’t like it, then GET OVER IT! But I mean, sending friendship reports can’t be all that bad. “Well yes, I think I can do that. It doesn’t sound all that bad, but where am i even going to meet ponies my current age?” I wondered jumping off the couch. Wait I wonder where Spike is....WAIT IS SPIKE REAL!? Well I mean, the Princesses and the main six and the CMC are real, so I guess he would be real. “Hey Twilight where is Spike at?” Oh crap, I hope it is not like one of those fics and he’s dead. Please let him be alive. “If you would have listened to me, the one rule is friendship reports AND she wants you to attend Ponyville Elementary to meet foals your current age.” Twilight stated staring at me while I gave out a sheepish laugh. Hahaha, I mean come on, you can’t say you wouldn’t have done the same. Still...WAIT A SECOND, SCHOOL!? I ALREADY WENT TO SCHOOL! “Twilight, do I really need to attend school!? I already went to school and payed my dues, so to speak.” I am still in shock, BUT REALLY!? SCHOOL!? COME ON! Wait a second, how old am I? Anyway, somepony tell me that how old are the CMC and I can guess my age from there. Who cares anyway. “Are you sure about that Twilight? I mean, I hated school where I came from. People are jerks, well...there was one person who was not a jerk.” I miss him. His parents never said where he went, only that he left town. “Well, the Princess did order it, well asked, but still yes. Just please do it.” Twilight then nuzzled me. Wait a second, she’s talking to me like I’m her child. I mean sure, the talking to me like a child part sucks, but she’s treating me like her own. Nothing can make this any better. “So Nova did you keep practicing magic?” “Fine, when do I start second grade? But I won’t like it!” I asked I heard Twilight stifling a giggle. What does she find so funny? Does she find it funny? Let me guess, where I am obligated to go to school “What is so funny?” “Well you won’t be in second grade.” Twilight giggled again WHAT IS SHE FINDING SO FUNNY?!? “Well, you will be starting kindergarten.” I felt a pit in my stomach. I mean, why kindergarten!? What wrong have I done to deserve that? Wait, so then I must be five. Oh lordy why me. Oh and I bet my last dollar that the Cutie Mark Crusaders are eight. Meh, who cares.....alright I kinda care. “K-k-k-kindergarten!? You have got to be kidding me Twilight! Please say this is a sick joke.” I wanted to scream. I wanted to punch a wall! I made this OC to be the child of Twilight and his talent is magic in a way, but I don’t know in what way. I hope it is magic, but then again I want my talent to be different. Who knows, it might be it might not be, but back to the subject at hoof. Ha I’m funny. “I mean, come on. Kindergarten? That is going to suck.” “No. Sorry Nova, I am not joking. I know you are not looking forward to it, but here kindergarten only last half a day. So you can be there until twelve or four, your choice.” Twilight was not joking. What have I gotten myself into? Wait, I just realized something. If Twilight adopted me, well while I am here, she is my ‘mother’. Then would that make Shining Armor my uncle so to speak. I want to be lazy right now. ______________________________________________________________________________ I was in the middle of a little magic practice that Twilight is making me do. It is hard but I did it, I levitated a book. It was hard I and I wanted to faint, it took the breath out of me. I only got the thing an inch off the ground but still it was hard. I dropped the book with a thud. Oh crap, I dropped a book, Twilight is gonna be pissed. “Good job Nova. You got that book a inch in that air, that is pretty good.” Twilight once again said to me like I am a child. You know back when at home on Earth, if someone did that to me I would flip them the bird but I do not have fingers so I can’t do that but still I wonder where Spike is “Hey Twilight where is Spi-” I was interrupted by a belch making me jump then a little girl screamed I mean you have heard a little girls scream but this was just wow it sounded like something from a hor- “Nova are you alright that was just Spike when he burps most of the time then it is a letter from the Princess” Twilight explained to me I know I am sounding like a broken record but she was speaking to me like I am a child I gotta say it is getting annoying “Yes I know that and the way he sends letters is by breathing fire on them and I did not scream like a little girl that was....uhhh uhhh uuhhh HEY LOOK A DISTRACTION!” I pointed my hoof in a random direction shockingly enough Twilight looked the way I pointed and I ran before being levitated wow that sucked all I know is I was laughing why the hell am I laughing “Lets see all the letter is saying is that the Princess wants Nova to get a check up and then she wants him to start school” Said by the cubby baby dragon Yeah thats right Spike I am talking about you come at me bro pfft thats what I thought punk “Thank you Spike now back to you Nova I know you don’t want to start school again but you have to alright” Twilight said to ME once again I am getting a little annoyed with her treating me like a child I guess I have to get used to it as I was saying thou- WAIT DOCTOR?!? “Ummm Twilight please say the doctor thing was a joke I kinda hate doctors” I sounded like Fluttershy the way I was talking but STILL I HATE DOCTORS nothing against them but the whole getting vaccinations that is what makes it worse just the idea for getting a needle put in me its not that I doctors just the thought of getting blood work done is what scares me or just having a needle stuck in my arm I HATE NEEDLES THEY MAKE ME CRY......crap I just admitted that who cares its true “Nope sorry Nova but we need to make sure you are healthy” Twilight said what wrong have I done sweet celestia what wrong have I done deserve this punishment nothing thats what either way it seems they hate me I mean come on a needle think about it “Nova you their snap out of it” Twilight said waving a hoof in my face I hate it when people did that “Yes I am fine Twilight don’t worry just thinking to myself” I was really bored I love libraries but living in one is going to bore the crap out of me OH MAN THIS SUCKS I wonder if any of my friends would believe where I am right now I know a certain person who would get diabetes and die from Fluttershy’s cuteness one of my best friends Jero or if he came here I guess Shadow Breeze. “Hey Nova I am making sandwiches for lunch is that alright with you?” Twilight asked looking at me I really really am not looking forward to starting kindergarten either way a sandwich sounds GOOD I haven’t eaten since the train ride so food sounds good right now “Ya sandwiches sound good” I know I know it seems like I am acting like a child but shaddup. I wonder if Cheerilee is going to be my teacher if so than it sounds alright after a few seconds there was a knock at the door ______________________________________________________________________________ When I walked down stairs I saw a butter yellow pegasus yummm butter....Sorry sorry I got distracted But I saw Fluttershy and a shaded-grey pegasus my jaw ended up slamming on the floor when I saw him. “Nova don’t stare its ju-” I interrupted Twilight I know big deal I interrupted her get over it fool “No freaking way, Jero!?” I squeaked out Okay everypony I hope you like the chapter now if you are wondering who Jero is he is from Living Between Worlds this is not a crossover fic with them. You may also know him as Shadow Breeze from DRDCT. I just felt like throwing him in here he is one of my friends and proof-read the chapter and wow this Authors Note is a big one but yes I hope you are liking the story so far I will try and have a new chapter up today or tomorrow This is Jero aka Shadow Breeze Chapter 4: Messing With Friends And Concussions Chapter 4: Messing With Friends And Concussions Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ “No freaking way! Jero!?” I squeaked out ______________________________________________________________________________ I stood there, mouth agape, looking at the shaded-grey pegasus. I just could not take my eyes off him. Jero’s parents said he left town, but they never, and I mean NEVER, said this is where he was at. I was swaying side to side like a drunk person, or in this case, a drunk pony. I felt like I was going to faint, but instead I slammed my head on the coffee table. The impact freaking hurt so much that I wanted to throw up from the pain. I already had a massive migraine, oh sweet celestia, make the pain stop. I felt tears forming in my eyes, not from the shock, but from the pain. “Oh my goodness, are you ok Nova?” Fluttershy asked, rushing to my side. I pushed her away. I was not trying to be very rude, but I did not want to look weak. I mean come on, just because I slammed my head on a table. I stood up a little light headed from the impact of skull on table. I really wanted some help, but NO, I could not show any sign of weakness, no matter what be it- Next thing I knew I was being lifted up in the air. “Woah, hey, put me down!” I said, looking to see the shaded-grey pegasus that made me go into shock like that. It was Jero, but why is he his OC Shadow Breeze, please explain that logic to me! Aww crap, I already know what is going to happen in a few seconds Jero is goi- “GAH ...Jero loosen...up....please...crushing....my.....lungs” I could not breath worth anything in his iron grasp. “Oh I am so sorry, you poor little thing and how did you know my name?” Jero asked me now HE is speaking to me like a child. Wait, does he even know who I am.....If not, then I understand but if so, then I am gonna kick his flank to Canterlot and back. “You are just the cutest little thing.” once again, kick his flank to Canterlot and back. “Jero, it’s me Damian, remember?” I asked him in hopes that he would not give me another iron death grip hug. Please oh please, don’t let him do it. “Please Jero, do not pull me into another death hug.” I was practically begging so he would not pull me into another hug....boy, was I wrong. I was pulled into another hug. “Oh my goodness, Damian, look at how cute you are!” Jero said, hugging me. I could not breath, and I did not think that my blue coat could get any bluer. I was wrong again. I have the tendency to be wrong, now help me please, Fluttershy, use the stare on him. “Help me please!” I squeaked out. “Fluttershy, Twilight somepony, help me please!” I was now flailing my hooves and pushing at him trying to get away from him, he is strong as heck. I would have never expected it “Jero please I am begging you loosen up.” “Oh, sorry about that.” Jero said with a blush releasing me. FREEDOM AT LEAST FROM HIS DEATH GRIP. Still though, he is a good friend. He finally put me on the floor, thank Celestia. I thought he would crush me to death. CURSE MY TINY SIZE! “Oh umm, Jero he changed his name to Nova when he got here.” Fluttershy squeaked out, shying away behind her mane.......d’awww how cute. “But can you call him that....If you want to that is.” “Well, sounds fair enough Nova...But why are you a small foal?” Jero asked me. Come on man, I know I am that of a child but who cares. “If I may interject Jero; The princess made a deal with him. Seeing as he never got to have a real childhood, Princess Celestia made a deal to let him have the childhood he never had. So your friend took the deal and chose to be renamed Nova.” Twilight explained while I tried to hide in a pillow. I felt ashamed for some reason don’t know why but I felt ashamed . “Yup, all of that is very true.” I stated, almost fainting from the tension again. Please somepony help me, I feel like I will pass out. “Hey Twili-” everything went black ______________________________________________________________________________ I woke up to the sound of voices. They were muffled through the door, but still they were voices. Then I heard my name. What are they talking about? Is it bad? Or is it good? What could be that important? Maybe if I go out there and see what all the buzz is about, or I could keep my lazy flank on this bed.....that is what I will do. Wait if they have something to say about me, then they can say it to my face, come at me bro! Ya that’s what I thought. “Here, I am going to check on him.” I think it was Twilight, but still everything is still fuzzy where I just woke up. My head is still hurting where I slammed it on that table. I put my hoof on my head. I felt some gauze, so I guess they got a doctor over here, or did Fluttershy do this? I hope this headache stops soon. A second later, Twilight walked inside the room “Hey Nova, are you awake?” “Huh yeah, I'm awake. Everything is just a little fuzzy, that’s all.” I said with a cough. Crap, that felt like a knife scraping on my rib cage. I shuddered when I thought of a story that scares me a little. “Hey Twilight, who bandaged my head?” Wait, what if Doctor Whooves is a real doctor? OH and what if Colgate is a dentist.......that last one would suck. “Oh, that was Fluttershy. Don’t worry, she said you just need some rest, that is about it. Oh, and Jero had some help, he told me everything.” Twilight stated with a warm smile. It felt like she was hugging me with a smile. I know it sounds cheesy but it is true. I mean, in my current state, with a head injury; it was from shock, well that and collision, with a table and let me say, it hurt like hell. I then tried getting up, only to be pushed back down. I looked and saw Twilight holding me down, shaking her head. “No Nova, you need to stay in bed.” But what she did not know is I had to piss something fierce. “Umm Twilight, I really need to use the bathroom, so please MOVE MARE, I NEED TO PISS!!” I shouted at the top of my lungs, taking off for the bathroom like my life depended on it; My bladder did. After what felt like years I walked out of the bathroom to see Twilight giving me a disappointed look. “What? I can’t help it if I needed to use the bathroom, sorry.” She still kept giving me that look. Sorry I had to use the restroom; maybe it was the way I said it...who knows? “You know, I read a medical book and it said that with a head injury you should not run like that, it’s dangerous.” Once again Twilight was lecturing me why does she keep doing that she acts like I do not know this stuff and I know this stuff so she needs to quit scolding me “Hey Twilight can you stop doing that scolding me I know this stuff” I am trying to be nice I really need a drink well not alcohol I was never really a big drinker “Hey Twilight can I have a soda?” I looked at the clock its like nine at night how long was I out for? I must have hit my head REALLY hard. “Sure thing dinner is still waiting at the table seeing as you slept through it Fluttershy and Jero are still here” Twilight said Oh I just got an evil idea *InsertEvilLaughHere* I remember when I first met Jero he face planted into a flag pole so I would tease him every now and then and call him pole.Both me and Twilight trotted down stairs when i saw it the best scene ever I NEED TO MESS WITH HIM NOW WHILE I HAVE THE CHANCE “Hey there Pole, what’s up? Well besides the little kissing session with Fluttershy there.” I stated with a evil grin seeing a red blush growing on his face. I did think a grey pony could blush but one can and now I know “Hey Jero, maybe I should tell Fluttershy about the little fanfic you wrote Li-” I was cut off with his hoof in my mouth oh this was too rich “Suuuuuusssshhhhhh” Jero hissed out at me his hoof STILL in my mouth and i was laughing my blank flank off.......DAMMIT I INSULTED MYSELF who cares worth it “Do not tell her please” His eyes looked like he was begging CRAP NOW I DON’T WANT TO TELL HER. “Umm Jero what is he talking about?” Fluttershy ask OH YES BEST THING EVER HE CAN’T SAY NO TO HER this is epic! What is he trying to do now? OH CRAP, HE IS USING THE STARE! On me! Crap, my body then stood there stunned. Damn, he is good. I don’t want to find out how good Fluttershy is at the stare “Nothing, it was nothing at all. Just him being silly. That is all, I swear.” Jero said a little too fast hehehe I am enjoying this me thinks Fluttershy is now getting suspicious anything else that happens is just icing on the cake.......No no Pinkie Pie I thought she would pop out of nowhere at the mention of cake “Oh alright if it is a secret then you don’t have to tell if you don’t want to” Fluttershy said being adorable still no need to use the stare on me I still can’t move “Who said there was cake I heard cake” Pinkie Pie stated jumping out of a plant behind both Jero and Fluttershy I wonder what took her so long all I know is they both scream like little girls....I know I did it once BUT COME ON GIVE ME A BREAK still wonder what took her so long HOW CAN SHE DO THAT.....What the is that a cupcake......NO NO PLEASE DON’T TELL ME CUPCAKES IS REAL “Oh and Nova I need some help baking some cupcakes tomorrow” NOOO I DON’T WANT TO DIE “Alright I guess I can help” WHY THE HELL DID I SAY THAT!? I am going to die tomorrow I just know it Chapter 5:Baking,Baths,And Horn SnagsFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ I started walking with Pinkie Pie while she bounced and made our way to Sugar Cube Corner Which I was able to see about halfway there. The sight of it made me HUNGRY. Still, I’ve always had a thing for baking... I don’t know why but I have always loved trying new things, new recipes, just mixing up whatever ingredient I thought could go well together. I could even make my grandmothers brownies, may her soul rest in peace. When we arrived I was zipped into the kitchen and boy did that make a dizzy... WAIT is Derpy’s name Ditzy Doo here or is it Derpy Hooves...? Meh, I will ask later on or find out. “Hey Nova, can you taste a cupcake for me?” Pinkie asked. Aww crap, I had a feeling I was going to die. This is just how that Cupcake fic started. Welp either way it’s a free cupcake. I took the cupcake and started munching on it, and I gotta say it was freaking good. “Wow Pinkie, that was good! Well, it was better than I thought it would be.” I said hoping it didn't insult her or make her feel sad or something along the lines as any possible feeling that could bring her ‘other’ side out... but still she is an amazing baker “So when do we get started with the baking and whatnot?” ‘Whatnot’? God, I sound like my grandfather! “Oh, we can start right now but first I need...” Pinkie inhaled deeply... This gonna be good “I need some Eggsflourcinnamonbutterandmilkohohohandvanillaextract. Oh! Just talking about cupcakes makes me feel so hyper! Ijustwanttoeatawholetrayrightnowjustthinkingaboutit!” Holy crap, that was just... Wow... but I still caught all of what she said. I went to the fridge, which was not that hard to notice, I took a few eggs out and the butter. I looked around and found the flour on top of the shelves. I grabbed one and placed it on the table next to the butter and the eggs. On my last sweep of the room, I saw the spice rack. I quickly read over the named until I found cinnamon... which was one of the emptiest of the bunch. I finally placed the last piece of the cupcake kit on the table. Baking cupcakes with Pinkie Pie... This. Is. Awesome “Hey Pinkie, you going to sing your cupcake song?” I asked, but by the way Pinkie’s eyes light up, I already knew the answer. Best part was that she was happy and that’s all I cared about. After a second Pinkie pulled me up into one of the biggest hugs imaginable, I could not help but to laugh and hug her back. She is such a sweet and kind mare... I wonder if I could somehow get into Celestia’s school...Meh I will ask or find out later as soon as I can use magic without wanting to pass out when i’m done ________________________________________________________________________________ After an eventful hour, or maybe five since I think I lost track after a while, I had somehow gotten the cupcake batter on my mane! And let me tell you, once it’s in there it is damnwell hard to get it out. I kept trying to pass my hoof through my mane trying to get some of it out only to hear Pinkie shout “Hey Nova, I got you a bath ready!” I just jumped when she suddenly popped up behind me and picked me up, carrying me to the bathroom. Once she opened the door, she launched me out of her hooves and into the tub... It was a long tossing distance, and even harder to do when you’re throwing something that’s about your same weight and did not stop squirming. “Uhh thanks Pinkie, but I think I can take care of it from here.” I said to Pinkie. She gave me a nod and walked out of the bathroom.after a little bit of relaxing while the batter melted off I felt as if something was gnawing at my leg, when I lifted it up there he was, none other than Gummy. I dropped him out of the tub so I could finish up. Is it just me or does the shampoo smell like cotton candy? That might belong to Pinkie... I had finally finished up in the bath. Turning the valves and jumping out, I noticed Pinkie placed a towel at my reach so I wouldn't have to walk too far... only for it to fall over my body and making me look like an orange ghost. When I took that towel off, it got it snagged on my horn. I kept trying to pull it off, but much to my dismay I could not get it off. There was only one thing left that I could do. “Help! For the love of Celestia, get this demonic piece of cloth off of my head!” I shouted only to be pulled up by the towel. My eyes widened from the pain. I looked and saw it was Pinkie pulling on the towel “Pinkie, stahp! It hurts!” I squeaked out hearing a dramatic gasp, I looked again and saw that it was was Rarity. I saw her horn glow as I was being placed on the ground and the towel being gently levitated off... Finally. “Oh darling, this is not good!” Rarity said inspecting my horn. She had me a little scared the way she said that and the expression on her face while she looked at my horn “Well, Nova, don’t you worry.” I hope she does not say Auntie Rarity “No need to worry Nova, Auntie Rarity will get that horn fixed up!” But... But... That was a video... IT’S NOT CANON! “Oh,oh,oh,oh Rarity how long will that take I want to throw Nova his Welcome To Ponyville Party soon” Pinkie chirped I would have glared at her but Rarity was too busy levitating me on her back I guess she is taking me to a doctor or something Chapter 6:Aichmophobia,Belonephobia Or Agoraphobia Chapter 6:Aichmophobia,Belonephobia Or Agoraphobia Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ I had finally arrived back at the library with Rarity in tow. I had a fun day, well three hours cooking with Pinkie Pie, she even let me keep half of them it took a second for Twilight to even notice both Rarity and myself, Twilight took the box of cupcakes and levitated them into the kitchen out of my reach and Spike’s “Well it seems that somepony had a good time” Twilight said All I could do was nod in response after a second of me standing their Twilight cocked an eyebrow at me “Nova can you go upstairs to your bedroom?” Twilight asked me and I went up to my bedroom “Oh Twilight when Nova was at Pinkie Pie’s he had gotten batter on his coat and took a bath but that’s not the worst part. When he got out a towel got stuck on his horn” Rarity said dramatically but unbeknownst to them I was hiding on the stairwell listening to them both “That poor darling” “Well he does have a doctor’s appointment today so they can look at it” Twilight laughed. “Oh and his physicians are Jero and his nurse is Fluttershy, so I am sure they can handle him” No freaking way they work at a doctor’s office WAIT I HAVE TO GO THERE TODAY “Well that is great seeing as he already knows Jero” Rarity giggled “But I have a feeling they will have a hard time seeing, because when I was looking at his horn he would not stop backing away” “That’s not true!” I shouted at the top of my lungs.Oh crap I blew my cover, all I know is that both Twilight and Rarity are looking at me now but not so much looking, but glaring more or less. “What I like to know what is said about me, sorry” I have the feeling that Twilight is going to lecture me about how wrong it is to eavesdrop or something like that....No nothing just that infamous glare it does not affect me what so ever “Nova its rude to eavesdrop you know that right?” Twilight said. I CALLED IT YEAH SON! “She is right Nova” Rarity stated If she says it my mind will be lost “It’s very uncouth”Oh wow how could anypony have guessed that Rarity would say that once again, she says that about EVERY LITTLE THING....? “What are you some kind of hooligan?” Okay now it’s time for me to throw my two cents in this “Whoa now let's slow this down, I have some trust issues so I like to know what is said about me” I stated a little mad that they were both teaming up on me. I know it was messed up that I was spying on them but still. “Well Nova you get to see your new physician today as it is we have about an hour” Oh goodie, Twilight reminding me about seeing a doctor as long as there is no shots involved I will be fine. “Also Nova you have to get a shot” DAMMIT IT’S LIKE SHE IS READING MY MIND I HATE NEEDLES. “Oh what a fun time this will be, I’m getting a shot” I think they were able to sense the sarcasm in that sentence meh if they get pissed then it was worth it on so many levels. Oh no Rarity is giving me a glare and I do not like it I think it’s a rare-glare “Nova you do not need to take that tone darling” Rarity keeps calling me darling why I will never understand “Well come on Nova lets go see the pediatrician” Wait did Twilight really say pediatrician? Sweet Celestia why you know what? Nopony gives a crap. ________________________________________________________________________________ we finally made it to the doctor’s office it was a little too colorful in my opinion but still it had a nice feeling to it. But I and Twilight are playing the oldest game in history the waiting game; que the boring music oh wait a minute what is it playing? It sounds more like elevator music give or take still I could not help but hum along with the music....wow it’s been half an hour and we are STILL! In the waiting room the smell of anesthetics and cleaning supplies. Woohoo! “Nova Sparkle” Wait a second first of all is that Nurse Redheart and for that matter did I really get Twilight’s last name? “Nova Sparkle you can come back now” So yes that is Redheart and yes I did get Twilight’s last name well isn’t this a bag of joy. With that both Twilight and I were lead to a colorful room and just sat there waiting for a doctor once again. We pla- Wait is that Jero and Fluttershy what are they doing here? I think they are here to hold me down while that accursed needle penetrates my flesh. There are two things I hate one being needles and two people who act like they are better than me. “Hi Nova me and Jero are going to be your doctors well he is your doctor I am just the nurse” Fluttershy as a nurse I could see it even if I was not here “Well he is a pediatrician really” Twilight said looking right at me Damn it why a pediatrician? I know I know a young colt and all that, still though looking at Jero holding up that medical chart like I have been here before which in truth I have not. “Well Da-Nova let’s check your weight first then we can get started” Jero said. At least he is not speaking to me like I ‘am child then I would have to I dunno I guess the whole kick his flank to Canterlot and back threat seems old now but I guess I can use it one more time. Well either way this scale looks oddly enough like one from earth “Wow you are forty seven pounds” Wow Jero just wow I know I have always been a scrawny little bean pole but I can hold my own in a fight. “Nova I will be right back I need to use the restroom” Twilight said as she trotted out of the room leaving me, Jero and Fluttershy all I can say is these bed tabley things are cold yet comfortable at the same time. “Okay now I need you to breathe in and breathe out” Fluttershy squeaked out. Which I know the drill by now so I did as she asked “Good everything seems to be in order their” Fluttershy as a nurse is just the most adorable thing ever...Why does Jero have three needles? Aww crap. “Okay now just ho-”Jero was cut off by how fast I ran out of that room and let me tell you it left a blue puff of smoke behind “Why did I have a feeling he would do that” Jero deadpanned “Oh my, is he alright?” Fluttershy asked seeing Jero with a deadpanned expression as Twilight walked in the room “Oh good did you give him the shots?” Twilight asked “Well no he ran off right when he saw the needles” Jero stated when Twilight hummed “What is it Twilight?” “Oh nothing but I may or may not have used a tracking spell on him” Twilight giggled “He is not far from us” “Umm how do you know that” Fluttershy asked “A simple tracking spell that’s all it took” Twilight said ________________________________________________________________________________ I had finally gotten what felt like a far enough distance away from Twilight, Jero and Fluttershy or so I thought I heard.“Found him” I heard Twilight shout. After that I took off in a gallop I just hate needles, but after a good half hour of running I was running out of breath, but when I tripped I knew it was all over, I was going to get a needle stuck in my flank all hope is lost. “Got him” Fluttershy said as she picked me up now hovering back to the room. I give up they can do what they want, when we finally arrived at the room which would help me meet my demise, Fluttershy sat me down on said examination table “Here I will hold him down” Twilight said as her magic held me down. I was hyperventilating from the fear of a needle about to stab into my flesh, I squeaked waiting for the impact. “There and done” I heard Jero say Wait did he really just say done? I despise needles they need to die....Huh that sounded funnier in my head but still that was fast, I smell something fishy going on, come on everypony how much you do want to bet that I will end up getting sick from this. “There Nova that did not hurt at all did it?” Fluttershy said sweetly to me. But yes it did in fact hurt thank you for reminding me. “Yes in fact it hurt something fierce” I stated rubbing my flank.only to hear a giggle “What's so funny?” I was hoping somepony else was laughing “It was not that bad Nova” Twilight said between giggles seriously its not funny it hurt but still hopefully we can leave this place of torture sooner or later I hope for NOW!

Low blow giving me Twilight's last name also tell Luna I said Hi and to stay out of my dreams its creepy Author's Note Well Nova sent his first letter to the princess I hope you enjoyed it also I left some hints in it for future chapters Chapter 8:Princess Who!? And The Crystal What!?Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I had been in Equestria for quite some time now and I must say... It’s been fun. I still have to deal with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon everyday so there are some downsides to it, but other than that everything is perfect. In the middle of class today Cheerilee received a letter from Twilight telling me to meet Jero at Fluttershy’s cottage after school. Still, the walk there is long and I usually tire myself out halfway there. “Why does Fluttershy have to live SO far away?” I thought out loud... Still, it’s nice to have a friend I know from home here in Equestria. Someone who actually know my human side other than just my pony side. “I hope my old boss enjoys the ‘gift’ I sent him...” Heh, a fruit bouquet... with a dead rat in the center, with a note in it’s mouth saying “I hope the smell stays here longer than I did, I quit.”. It was a douche move on my behalf... Heh... I feel nostalgic. I haven’t been back home in months, I hope everybody I know is well. I should go back and visit them soon...ish or whenever I feel like it, but at least I mastered levitation. “Hey, blank flank, what are you doing here?” Oh come on! I really have to pass Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon at this time! I tried to keep walking and ignore them but they kept throwing insults my way so it was kind of hard to ignore. I kept walking, yet they followed me, now I’m getting angry... “WHAT?” I shouted looking at the two “What could you need!” I started walking to them now “I am getting really annoyed with you both now either leave me be or I swear I’m going to make you pay for whatever time you’re making me waste!” I am not kidding, I will find a way to have them... I dunno beat up or something? Still, though I am going to tell them one more thing “I am not or will ever be one of the ponies you can bully and get away with it!” I got muzzle to muzzle with them “Keep it up and you’ll have to deal with an angry me, and trust me when I say I can be violent...” I think that scared them, when I finished that sentence they looked at each other not knowing what to do. Diamond Tiara opened her mouth but stopped herself when I turned my gaze her way. They went of running... I continued making my way to Fluttershy’s, I love how she is scared of the Everfree yet she decides to live so close to it. I let out a small laugh, it’s kinda funny when you think about it “Hmm, I wonder what Jero wants to show me.” I thought out loud as I continued trotting. I wonder, if I went back to earth still looking like a pony what people would freak out and if they would accept... well, a talking pony? If I’m right they would most likely take me to some crazy government facility and experiment on me, oh how much fun that would be! Anyway, while walking I felt something hit my muzzle and it didn't get any better when I looked up I saw a royal guard. Weird, he wore a purple armor... where have I seen this before? “Aww crap, what did I do?” I thought out loud. I put my hooves behind my back “I know the drill...” I sighed, “I have the right to remain silent, anything I say can and will be held against me in the court of law” I hope I remember this correctly, “I have the right to attorney if I can not afford one one will be presented for me” The guard just lifted his eyebrow at me. “Are you alright, kid?” He asked me letting out a laugh “I’m Shining Armor, big brother of Twilight Sparkle.” I stood up with a deadpanned expression, I knew I had recognized him but I couldn’t put my hoof on it. Well now I know why he looked familiar! “Oh yeah! Twilight talks about you... a lot.” I said with a chuckle, “I’m Nova by the way.” I held my hoof out which he shook somehow... I am not going to question the how, but he did alright.Still though, he seems like a nice pony. I am sure he does not get anything like Twilight does or at least I hope not. “So where are you headed kiddo?” Great, now Shining Armor is speaking to me like a child. Gee thanks. I love being sarcastic, still I kept a smile on and tried not to levitate him and throw him. “I was just headed to Fluttershy’s cottage to meet my friend Jero up there,” I said as I tried to start trotting, only to be stopped I looked and noticed I was being levitated; I do not like where this is going, “What are you doing?” “I am going to take you to Fluttershy’s.” Shining smiled at me as he placed me on his back. I am happy now, I do not have to walk anymore, I was running out of breath. He is pretty nice I will say. “Thank you, Shining Armor.” I said and started going into deep thought. Thinking about what it would have been like if I choose not to come here and stayed at home would anything else happen? Would I move up the ladder? Would I still be in a cubicle? Or would I be in prison for killing my boss? Either way I wonder what would have happened if I stayed home. We had finally arrived at Fluttershy’s house, I thanked Shining Armor for carrying me here. The whole walk here we shared stories. I told him about some of the things that happened while I had been here and Shining Armor told me some very embarrassing things about Twilight. I walked into Fluttershy’s house, seeing Jero putting a basket on the table, I cleared my throat to get his attention “Hello Nova” Jero looked at a clock “Wow, you got here faster than I expected” I let out a laugh at this. He thinks I would be late, well I would have been if not for Shining Armor “Dang Jero that is hurtful. You think the worst of me don’t you?” I puffed out my lower lip trying to give a pair of puppy dog eyes, I love screwing with Jero. His eyes widened in panic. “N-no no I don’t think the worst of you” I am one evil little colt “Trust me, I just thought, you know, with the long path from the school it would take you a bit longer than normal.” At this point I was on the floor laughing. I love messing with people or ponies. “Dang Jero, I was just kidding” I said in between laughs. Once again I am a evil little colt, still making ponies all panicky is mean, even for me. Especially when I mess with Fluttershy or Jero. That is wrong, but funny on so many levels. Its kinda sad I know, messing with your friends is mean and cruel but when you get a chance you HAVE to take it. Jero was not amused by my antics but come on, if you were in my position being stuck in a crappy kindergarten class, I think you would have done the same thing. I need a way to entertain myself when I am not stuck in class or stuck with the crusaders but I must say they are all nice, annoying at times, but otherwise they are very well behaved and not annoying at all. I mean they are kids so of course they would be hyperactive at that age, but look at me I am not that hyper am I? No, I am not. I just enjoy screwing with my friends, but who doesn’t? Still though I gotta say Jero looks pissed. “What is wrong with you!?” Oh crap, Jero is mad. You don’t want to make him angry, you would not like him when he is angry. I mean it, when he is mad you better run for the hills and not look back. Wait, what is he raising his hoof for? “Why would you do something like that?” Oh good he is calm. I thought he was going to strike me, I was a little scared, at that point I did flinch. I think that is what made him soften up a little. Still though, I am wondering what the point of the basket is for. “Hey Jero what is the basket for?” I asked looking up at him, man that feels weird looking up at your friends. I don’t understand why I was turned into a five year old, but either way it is good most of the time. “Well I thought we could just catch up a little with a lunch” Jero just smiled at me, grabbing the basket and trotting to the door. I don’t know why but I thought of a joke. “That and Twilight’s brother is over. So she asked me to keep an eye on you.” How could I have guessed? Well I guess the best person to foalsit me is somepony who knows me so well. “Oh Jero I thought of something funny wanna hear?” I asked, Jero nodded “So now a pole is dating a tree” I burst out laughing at my own joke but come on that was funny. I love teasing him about that but still, I need to give him a break every once and a while but not too much. ________________________________________________________________________________ The whole walk to the place that Jero wanted me to follow him to I could not stop thinking about both Ruby Pinch and Dinky. They are really nice fillies and well, I don’t know, they both have good qualities along with being really nice. I met both Berry Punch and Ditzy Doo, they were really nice to me. I was zoned out into my own little world, not paying attention to anything. Not even the blush growing on my face from thinking about them. “You OK, Nova? You’ve been quiet the whole time we were walking. Also, why is your face all red?” Jero asked breaking the silence “Huh? Oh yeah, I’m fine. Just thinking that’s all” Crap! Why do I keep thinking... Who cares!? I mean come on, if not for thinking you would not be hearing things. All these ponies can’t hear me say like this: Jero I threw that dead mouse at your car that one time......see he can’t hear me “That was you!?” “What was me?” I think he can hear me, well this sucks something fierce. “Nova, I can’t hear your thoughts, you’re thinking out loud again.” “Well yes, I did throw that dead mouse at your car.” This sucks, he can hear me. Well everypony just a heads up, you piss him off he goes Flutterrage on you so just a heads up. Jero sighs “Well, why were you blushing anyway? Wait a sec.....that face you were making....” I started panicking at this point. If he guesses it, I am screwed “What face? I was not making a face, what is with your face?!” Yeah that worked. “That’s the same face I would make when I first started think about Flutter-....” Jero gasps and grins a little “Nova....do you have a crush on somepony?” “No I do not! Why would you think that?” OH COME ON! heh that made me think of Sweetie Belle. “I can tell when you are lying sometimes and that is SO a lie! You have a crush on a filly! Oh, that’s just cute and funny!” “Jero, buddy, this needs to be said” I put my hoof on his leg “You are one of the most feminine males I have ever met” I laughed with my own grin. “So says the guy that has to repeat kindergarten all over again” “Yeah well you....dammit” I have no insults, Celestia help me “Heh, looks like I win. Oh, wait until I tell Twilight about this.” My eyes just shot wide, if he told her my new reputation would be gone faster than... uhhhh I got nothing. “Jero if you do it, I have a few things Fluttershy would just love to see.” I grinned even wider. “Maybe I could show her some of the pictures of her on the internet.” “How would that work against me? I never looked at those pics nor did I make them.” “I have ways and you know it. Like the time I put a dead rat on my boss’s desk.” Oh wait that was before I came here “”Never mind, you would not know about that.” “Don’t even wanna know and it’s not gonna work. Also, don’t even try to tell her about the fic. During this last months I spent with her, I trusted her so much that I didn’t want anymore secrets between us so I told her about it.” “Give me a break please” Time for the killer, I gave him the cutest pair of puppy dog eyes I learned from Sweetie Belle, the master of puppy dog eyes, that could kill a man from the sheer cuteness. Jero closes his eyes as quickly as he could. “You’ve been learning from Sweetie, haven’t you?” “Jero, give me a break on this one. Come on, please bro” I really hope that he keeps it a secret “Wait, when you turn human does your cutie mark stay?” “Uh...random time to ask that, but yeah. Only it appears on my shoulder when I turn human. It can be easy covered with a short sleeved shirt though” “So it looks like a tattoo” I got even happier “So wait, why do you work with foals?” good the subject has been changed “Well, since I...wait a second, you’re not getting out of this that easily! I’ll make you a deal.” Oh goodie a deal, this should be hard for me to keep my end of it but if it is something like cooking, I can handle it “Sure, what is it?” “I won’t say a word for 2 things: One, you never call me pole, Fluttershy a tree, or Scootaloo a chicken again.” “Hey, no promises on not calling Fluttershy a tree. She wants to be a tree, so I call her a tree and the whole Scootaloo thing, I have yet to call her that.” I am insulted! How dare he think that of me. “I know you’ll do it sooner or later, so just in case.” “Fine, deal. Just no talking about it” I really don’t like where this is going “But I have one thing to say.” “Wait, let me just say my 2nd demand:....You have to tell me who you are crushing on.” “When I figure that one out myself, I will tell you.” Now for the one thing I must say “cluck, cluck.” Am I messed up? You know it “Had to do it.” Jero rolled his eyes “So, you have a crush on two fillies, but don’t know which to choose. Am I right?” “Out of both Dinky and Ruby.” WAIT HOW DID HE GET ME TO DO THAT!? “How did you, oh screw it.” Jero chuckled “Well, with me being in a relationship I’m more in touch with getting the hang of helping others with similar problems as well.” “Yeah with me dating more I will not say the word I want to, in fear of you being larger than me.” Seriously he is huge compared to me. “So are we there yet? or is it another hour walk?” but if you were me you would not be able to walk as much. I know one thing though, I hate trying to use magic. A lot of the times my head starts to hurt, I don’t know why but it does. “Don’t worry, we are here” Jero said as we both stopped. I sat on the ground, catching my breath. Jero had started to set everything up while I went into a deep thought. I was not paying attention to anything around me not even the fact that Jero was poking me to get my attention. “Yeah, sorry just went into deep thought again.” I said with a cheesy grin, trying to cover for my screw up of zoning out. I can’t help it, sometimes I go into a deep thought thinking about well, anything. I mean its like, think about when you are in a math class. You zone out, wanting to be anywhere but there. I jumped on the blanket as Jero put the basket containing the food down, and trust me, food sounds good right about now. ________________________________________________________________________________ After a good lunch, and catching up with Jero, we had arrived back at Fluttershy’s. Something about Twilight needing to talk to her brother alone. If she told me I would have understood easily but whatever. Jero and myself had caught up so I am happy. Turns out a lot has happened since we last saw each other, well I guess that is true Jero got to come to Equestria before me, along with turning into a pony a while after, so it works out; in a way. I mean, I have made more friends than imaginable, but something was making my mane itch and I mean itch like crazy. So I did the only thing I could think of. I started scratching it. Oh man, with my bad luck and if they have lice in Equestria then most likely I have lice. Lets hope that is not the case. “Nova, what are you doing?” Jero asked me. I stopped scratching my mane for a second and looked right up at him. I bit my tongue, trying not to go crazy “Scratching my mane, thats what.” but man that itches, and almost burns at the same time. I tried to stop scratching again but alas, I could not stop. “Are you sure you are alright?” Jero asked, I stopped scratching and nodded. I jumped on the couch smiling. “So, what is up with Twilight needing to speak with her brother?” I asked, I can never get over at how high pitched my voice sounds. It is funny as I will get out, but I don’t care for it when Jero gives me crap about it. I think it is very annoying, but nothing I can’t deal with. I had to deal with worse when I really was a kid. “I don’t know, but she said bring you home at around four or five.” Jero said with a smile. He is almost as cheery as Pinkie Pie. Who am I kidding? Nopony can be that cheery, Pinkie Pie is so happy, it scares me. “Okay, now second, do they have tv’s here?” I am wanting to know more about my new home so pardon me if I ask a few things so I know I won’t get bored out of my skull, that and living with Twilight does not help. She throws random questions about crap, she has me study and sometimes at the worst of times, like one time I was making a peanut butter sandwich, and she comes right behind me and ask me a random question. Its lucky that knife did not cut me. “No they don’t” Jero said. Well this sucks, they have all this advanced crap, like heart rate monitors, and all that other crap, yet no tv. Well this sucks. I can’t wait to get back to the library and, I dunno, do anything but study. Heck maybe talk to Shining Armor and ask if he has any tips and tricks on how to deal with Twilight. Still, the one thing I can’t help but wonder is: What else happened on the royal wedding episode? I heard there was another alicorn, but I think that is just something by the fans. Hoping to see a new princess. But I doubt that would happen ever. Here is a deal, if that is true and there is a third alicorn, I will curse right in front of everypony. So if, and when, I see a new ‘princess’. I will do it, I don’t care what happens after I do it. I will, so try me. But the one thing I hate about being this young again is I get distracted REALLY easily. That is not too fun, it sucks, even more so when I zone out in class and Cheerilee calls me out to answer the question. I will say this, the whole bits system, I have yet to understand. I am sure it will come to me sooner or later maybe I can try and get some extra bits from Twilight when I ask her to explain it to me. “Well that sucks, oh well I can find a way to entertain myself, I always do.” I laughed, thinking about some of my more fond memories. Some of them are not the best, but some of them are pretty good. “Also what time is it?” I looked at a clock, seeing it was four thirty. Man ten minutes ago I would have had a four twenty joke. “It is four thirty” I saw Jero’s eyes wide. They looked like they were ready to pop out of his head. “Oh no, we have to go and now!” Jero than grabbed me, running out the door. I know we are headed back to Twilight’s house on run. But I don’t understand why Jero just doesn't fly, I will never know but when he realizes he is late for something, he takes off running. I could see the library in plain sight, it was a good ten second run from here. “Jero, slow down or I am going to vomit.” I think it worked because he stopped running. “Thank you.” I jumped off his back, stretching my limbs, I heard a couple of pops. I then started trotting to the library with Jero close behind me, it is creepy but who cares. I got to the library, seeing my worst enemy, the door. I could not reach that knob if you payed me. I started channeling my magic as I saw a pale purple aura going around the door knob, twisting it. After a little while, I had opened the door. I beamed as I trotted inside, when I got in there I saw a light pink alicorn laughing with Twilight and Shining Armor “What.The. Hell.” ________________________________________________________________________________ I walked down stairs, after learning what soap taste like, and I will say this: It does not taste very good. I guess that nopony takes well to a five year old swearing. I still had some bubbles on my cheek from the soap, I did not notice it until I overheard a light pink alicorn giggling looking at me. I do not find it funny, I find it annoying “Here, let me fix that” I never caught her name but she took a tissue and wiped my face off, even though I could do it on my own. It was not funny that I had my mouth washed out for saying a certain sentence, that I refuse to say again for fear of having my mouth washed out a second time. “Thanks” I grumbled, a little annoyed at the fact I had my mouth washed out for one simple word. I am just going to have to watch what I do and say in fear of what else they might do to me. Well I guess now is as good as time as any to introduce myself, “Hello my name is Nova, nice to meet you” I held my hoof out. The alicorn took my hoof, giggling as she shook it “My what a gentlecolt we have here” great, apparently nopony told her about the deal Celestia made with me “My name is Cadance, it is a pleasure to meet you Nova.” “The feeling is mutual.” I said in a calm tone as Cadance released my hoof. Yet again, I started drifting off, I could not get Dinky or Ruby off my mind. They seem to stay there, taunting me. I can not date them though, it is just strange, I mean I am technically a grown man but I am in a childs body here so I guess I am a child. I for some reason have the attention span of one and a lot of other things. Cadance let out a giggle as she looked over to Shining Armor “I think somepony in this room is in love” is it really that obvious. “How do you know that?” I asked looking at Cadance “Because I am the princess of love” Cadance said and my jaw dropped. I have a question I want to ask her but I can’t think of it for the life of me, sometimes I hate having the mind of a child. I am sure it will come to me “And I also rule the Crystal Kingdom” Wait the what kingdom? This is a joke “Are you kidding? There is another kingdom?” I am shocked, I thought that the whole third alicorn thing was a fan rumor, along with the whole new kingdom thing but I guess it is not a rumor. Well I have not passed out yet so it is good “So, Princess Cadance, did Princess Celestia explain the deal she made with me to you?” Cadance cocked an eyebrow at me “No, I don’t think Aunt Celestia told me about a deal” I groaned at this point, I figured that she would let her niece know. “I did see Twilight leaving with this little tyke.” Shining Armor said as he ruffled my mane, I swear these ponies are killing me on the inside by doing stuff like that. I am not some little kid, well on the outside I am, but I am really an adult. I heard Jero stifle a laugh, I glared at him “I am not a foal Cadance. I am an adult.” I saw both Shining Armor and Cadance laugh at me, for the love of Celestia! “You're a big pony aren't you?” Seriously? Now a princess is speaking to me as if I truly was a child. I am going to die on the inside everyday until they stop doing that. “Well I have to go and meet Fluttershy now” Jero said, as he walked out the door I suddenly got an idea. “So Cadance and Shining Armor, you don’t believe me when I say I am an adult?” I asked they nodded. “Nova what are you getting at?” Twilight asked, I grinned. “Well so you will believe me let me tell you a story” I grinned. ________________________________________________________________________________ After a few hours of talking, getting to know Cadance and Shining Armor, they had taken their leave so Twilight opened a book, Spike went to spend the night with Rarity and I went to take a bath, the whole time I could not believe that Cadance had invited both Twilight and myself to stay with her and Shining Armor at the Crystal Empire. I had finished my bath, after drying off and throwing my towel in the hamper, I went into the living room, which in was really just the main room of the library but it acts as a living room. I saw Twilight reading a book but I could not make it out, so I went in front of to see what book she was reading. It took me a second but I saw the name of the book that Twilight was reading it was ‘Parenting Foals For Dummies’ I decided to shake it off and grab a book of my own, I grabbed Daring Doo Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull I guess she is the female Equestria version of Indiana Jones. I opened the book and started reading, getting caught up in my own little world “Hmm this is interesting” I flipped the page and kept reading. When I get caught up in a book nothing can break my concentration, I kept my eyes on the book until I let out a small yawn. I shook my head to stay awake, I must know what happens at the end of this book. I kept reading until I let out another yawn “I must know what happens.” I said aloud only to find myself being lifted into the air. When I looked back I saw Twilight smiling at me “What are you doing?” “You are sleepy and this book I am reading says when a foal is sleepy he, or she, should be put to bed immediately.” Twilight explained. As she tucked me in I let out another yawn. “I am not tired” I protested as Twilight gave me a kiss on the head “The heck?” “Well either way you need to be in bed, it is a school night after all” Twilight smiled before looking at her book again, I don’t like where this is going. “Good night Nova, mommy loves you.” Now I am confused as to what is going on “Did that really just happen and did Twilight really just say that?” I think to myself before drifting off to sleep. But before anything I did not mean to say this but it slipped out “I love you too mommy.” I am never going to hear the end of that. ________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next morning with a massive yawn. I did not feel like opening my eyes in fear of the dreaded sunlight on my eyes. I felt like I was hugging something and when I opened my eyes I saw Twilight’s old smarty pants doll. I don’t know how it even got in here unless it comes alive at night and for some reason it came in here...that is just crazy talk, even for me. Why am I still hugging this thing? I tossed the offending stuffed animal thing, I am not sure what it would be called but still, now it is on the floor. I started trotting down stairs, I could hear Twilight talking to somepony, but I could not tell. I stood at the same spot I did last time. I could make out Rarity’s voice, why is it shocking that her voice is so easy to make out? She is a drama queen, still, what is Twilight telling her? I went down one more step so I could hear what they were saying. Twilight let out a silent yet audible squeal of joy “And after I told him I love you, after he fell asleep he said ‘I love you too mommy’!” I heard Rarity let out a squeal “But an hour or two later I went to check on him and he was just shifting around, like he was not comfortable, so I dug up my old Smarty Pants doll and gave it to him, after that he seemed to calm down but I went to check on him a while later and he was hugging it. I just had to take a picture and I did.” Twilight did what now. I heard Rarity take in a small inhale “Oh darling, I think it is quite marvelous that he thinks of you as his mother already” seriously I do not remember saying that, and she took a picture of me, that is just mean. How would she like it if I did the same to her? I decided now would be a good time to go and get breakfast. I walked into the kitchen, rubbing my eyes. I was not paying half a mind, but I was picked up in the air again, when I looked I saw Twilight, she pulled me into a hug, grinning ear to ear. Twilight put me down still smiling “Good morning Nova, I hope you slept well.” I simply nodded but Twilight’s grin did not fade and I could tell it would not anytime soon. “Also there is no school today.” I smiled back “That’s good” I let out one more yawn, I am still in the process of waking up “So am I free to do what I want today?” Twilight nodded “Good. Is it alright if I go out and get to see Ponyville on my own?” I want to get to see the whole town on my own with no adults. Twilight let out a small giggle “Yes you may but I want you to go and make your bed.” Twilight poked my nose “And I will make you some breakfast” I huffed and went back upstairs to make my bed. I had finished fixing my bed up, like Twilight had asked me, when I looked at the floor. Seeing the smarty pants doll I was hugging when I woke up. “Hmm should I leave it or put it up on my bed” I shrugged, I mean Twilight did give it to me when I was sleeping so I guess it won’t hurt to put it on my bed. Walking back downstairs I could hear Twilight saying something else so I decided to walk into the kitchen to get my food. When I did get in the kitchen, I saw Twilight and only Twilight. I am guessing Rarity had to leave for something; I don’t know what but and I don’t care. But still Twilight is a bit giddy today “Twilight you are kinda creeping me out.” I am not joking she is just smiling at me like that. Twilight patted me on the head “Sorry Nova, just that picture I got of you snuggling up to my old Smarty Pants doll was cute.” I hope she only made one copy of that “I also made waffles for breakfast.” At the sound of food I jumped into my chair while Twilight levitated my plate in front of me. I did not even bother with a fork I just dug in. Chapter 9: School Days And Possible Broken Noses Chapter 9: School Days And Possible Broken Noses Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ After exploring the town, or village, I am not sure what Ponyville would be called, but after getting to know it a bit more yesterday I got to say it is pretty big. But today, I had to go back to school. I trotted to the school building, it is a good size, when I got inside I was greeted by Dinky and Ruby along with Rumble, my fellow crusaders. I took my seat, looking at the board I saw “Today’s lesson is on the color green.” written in big letters. I really hate being back in kinder garden some days Dinky was the first to speak up “Hey Nova do you want to come crusading with us today?” “Yeah, we came up with some awesome stuff!” Rumble said “I thought we could try and help my mom out in her shop” Ruby said with a smile, I nodded, they are all good ideas but I could not think of anything. I thought for a second. I did not want to be rude, yet I want to hang out with them “I don’t know. I kinda wanted to do something after school today on my own.” I heard them all groan in disappointment “Sorry but I just wanted to be alone after school today when we are all busy, Twilight is having somepony foalsit me once again, sorry.” They all understood. We kept chatting until Cheerilee entered the room “Good morning my little ponies” I did not think she would say that. I let out a small yawn; I am still a little tired. I did not sleep well, thing is I lost the smarty pants doll and I don’t know why it affected my sleep but it did. I am so sleepy “Today's lesson we will be starting out with learning about the color green and after that we will be doing math.” I heard all of the foals in the classroom groan at the sound of math, I was one of them. I am still sleepy though, I wish I would have taken the class at twelve to four; it is all the same thing just different times. I could feel my eyes closing, I kept trying to fight it but it was hard. Eventually I gave in and fell asleep. ____________________________________________________ I was still sleeping in Cheerilee's class, I said it already I was tired, my left ear twitched but what woke me up was not Twilight shaking me gently. Instead it was a book slamming on my desk, I shot awake "ORANGE!" was the first thing to come out of my mouth. Everypony in class started laughing at me and I felt a blush growing on my face as a result. Cheerilee gave me an unamused look. I just looked down. Cheerilee finally spoke "Nova is my class so boring that it made you fall asleep?" I just shook my head, I knew I was in trouble "Well I want you to wait after class, am I understood young colt." I nodded as I waited for everypony to leave the classroom and they did, fast. The only ones I saw still waiting outside were Lime Wire and his little friends. I saw Cheerilee sigh "Nova listen, I don't want to be your enemy. I want to be your friend." I do not like were this is going "So Nova I want you to get Twilight to sign this." Cheerilee than placed a piece of paper in my saddle bags before placing my saddle bags on me. I sighed as I made my way out the door. While walking to Twilight's, I saw Lime Wire following me. Twilight had packed me a lunch so I decided to go to the park and eat it. Upon arrival I found a nice shaded tree and I sat under it, opening my saddle bags I saw a sandwich, a juice box and some other things. But before I could grab anything I saw the one known as Lime Wire approaching me. "Hey nerd!" Lime Wire shouted, I just groaned hoping he would leave me alone. "Hey I am talking to you!" I just looked at him "What do you want?" I asked, not looking forward to what this colt wanted. I am betting in his twisted mind he thinks I did something to him. Lime Wire grinned "Because of you, my mom took away my favorite toy." REALLY!? He is blaming me for this, sweet Celestia help me please. I just rolled my eyes "I did not do anything. You did that to yourself." I really want to smack him "Can you leave me alone so I can eat now? And that means in peace." "Oh this lunch" Lime Wire said as he stomped the lunch Twilight had packed me "No you cannot" Great now I have to deal with him all day. I stood up "Listen if you have a problem with me then let’s talk about it." I felt a hoof hit my side so I guess talking it out won't work. I turned and saw another Pegasus, this one was yellow. I walked over to them and hit the other Pegasus before hitting Lime in the muzzle. I guess that was some kind of bait, because before I could turn. I was being held back. "Hey let me go!" I shouted, before anything else happened Lime Wire bucked me in the face, and it hurt. When the pony that was holding me had let go, I fell to the ground, and laid there, just waiting for them to leave. After about ten minutes they had left. I grabbed my saddle bags and took off running back towards Twilight's home. When I arrived I dropped my saddle bags on the floor and started walking to the stairs, only to be lifted into the air. Twilight then sat me on her stomach. Twilight nuzzled my cheek "Hey Nova, I heard what happened." Twilight took a tissue and wiped my nose, I don't know why, but she did. I just buried my face into her chest. "Listen Nova, me and the girls are going to Canterlot today and we will be gone all week" I nodded, understanding, before falling asleep right there.I am turning into such a wuss Author's Note So yeah this was a chapter I wrote a few minuets after chapter 3 or 4 I was going to publish it but I decided not to BUT I thought about putting it as some cut content but I though naw show what happens while Nova is in school so here it is after this chapter the next chapter will be MUCH MUCH bigger so I hope you like it Sparknanator~ Chapter 10:The StormFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _______________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up in the morning but for once it was not in my bed instead I was in the guest bedroom at Fluttershy’s cottage I streached my arms yawning I looked around I know it seems strange but I had to hug my Smarty Pants doll it has become a morning ritual of mine I know it seems like something a little kid would do but hey I am five now so who cares I sure don’t I heard a small knock on the door I forgot to mention that Fluttershy and the rest of them along with Sweetie Belle are in Canterlot right now so yeah it is just me and Jero right now I guess Twilight decided since we know each other already he is my new foalsitter so who cares I would never say it out loud though but I would gladly call Twilight mom if it was not for getting teased I also got punished yesterday reason being is yesterday was my parent teacher conference and well where Twilight was not around Jero went in her place so when he found out I had gotten into a book fight that turned into me beating up Lime Wire he punished me by making me clean out the chicken coop I yawned again “Come in” I shouted as Jero came in thank Celestia it is a weekend but I really miss Twilight or as I like to call her when I pretend to be alseep mommy I hope nopony figures out that I am faking like I am asleep I really don’t want anypony to know Jero came into the guest room as I put down my Smarty Pants doll smiling “Good morning Jero” Jero ruffled my mane “Morning Nova” I hate it when he does that it kills my pride I sniffed seeing as my nose gets clogged up when I sleep but this time it was not instead I smelled something good “What is that smell?” I asked “Well I thought you would like some waffles for breakfast” Jero said as I took off for the door not to go to the kitchen to eat but to take care of some personal matters “Don’t forget to wash up!” I came out of the bathroom and yes I washed my hooves so don’t ask when I was going down the stairs I fell being the smart pony I am I shook it off even though it hurt I went into the kitchen jumping in a chair I saw Angel sitting in one I don’t want to know so I won’t ask still though those butter covered waffles looked and smelled good so I just dug right in not caring how hot the butter was I was hungry and that is all I cared about I had finished my food in a pretty good time looking at the calender I saw it was Monday HOW LONG DID I SLEEP!? “Oh goodie it is Monday and I have to go to school” I hate school if you can not tell Jero let out a small laugh “Yup now come on out the door with you” crap he is going to make me go…oh well I guess that is the price of getting a second childhood I put my saddle bags on heading for the door “I hate this some days and I swear if Lime Wire starts with me today I will hurt him” I walked out the front door my mind drifitng the whole time “I wonder what todays lesson will be on I hope not another color” I arrived at the school seeing Cheerilee waiting at the door she had a smirk looking at me “Good morning Nova I think you will do well in todays lesson” Cheerilee said looking right at me I nodded and walked to me seat Cheerilee walked into the class room with a smile on her face either she is in a good mood or she got some last night “Good morning” No smug remarks good I saw her write on the bord ‘Todays lesson is on the color orange’ son of a “I think Nova will know all about this color” I knew it I freaking knew it The whole class started laughing at me I felt my face go flush “Yeah seeing as he shouted it last week” Who ever said that I am going to hurt them well if it was a colt than yeah I am going to hurt him you know what not worth the time “Why don’t you say that to my face to I can hit you” I think I said that too loud because Cheerilee is glaring at me Today what a freaking day is all I can say Cheerilee made me stay behind and write stuff on the board it sucked either way I need to get back to Fluttershy’s house so I can do this homework and have it done in a decent time and hopefully enjoy the rest of the day wow making this walk does not take too much time when you have to make it everyday I am glad I know there is a thunderstorm today I walked in the front door to see nopony around “Yo Jero I am home” I shouted hearing him shout something back Jero came into the living room “Get to doing your homework” Oh really I thought I would just sit down and turn on the TV oh wait I forgot they do not have TV’s here I sat down at the table pulling the crap Cheerilee calls homework out and started working on it I can not believe how easy this crap is well seeing as it is for a kindergarden class I am not shocked still I keep feeling like I am being watched at night and it scares me I dunno why though I still finished that homework so that is a good start “Hey Jero I finished the crap called homework” I shouted getting up and walking into the kitchen “What’s for dinner?” Pardon me for being hungry but in other news I still hate the night time I don’t know why but that Smarty Pants doll makes me feel safe don’t you judge me or else I will find you ____________________________________________________________________________________ The night time had arrived after a nice dinner getting myself cleaned up aia came downstairs hearing a loud crack of thunder I froze up “It can’t hurt me but it can scare the crap out of me” I REALLY hate thunder almost as much as I hate needles that is the only bad part about this whole second childhood thing a lot of my old childhood fears have come back like thunder,needles,thunder,the dark,thunder,being alone,thunder,being in big crowds oh and did I mention thunder? I don’t know if I did still it is almost nine at night wow time passes when you have fun I really wish Twilight was back because I don’t know if she has said anything but on stormy nights I sneak into her bedroom and snuggle up to her at night and I don’t care what other ponies think of me for it still though there was one more crack of thunder before the power shot out I screamed in fear I really really hate the dark it scares me to the point of tears but before anything else I saw a flash of lightning and a face looking at me through the window before I saw anything else or did anything else Author's Note Well this is where the story is picking up I hope you like it so far Sparknanator~ Chapter 11:She Is My Mother And They Are My FamilyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I kept crying from the fear of what ever it was I saw that is the one thing I hate about being five again when something scares me to the point of crying I really don’t like it because when I do start crying nopony can understand what I am saying “Calm down Nova” Jero kept trying to calm me down but it was no use I kept trying to talk but it was impossible to understand what I was saying the only thing that could be understood was ‘Monster staring at me’ I am truly turning into a child and I really need to speak to the princess about why I am acting like a child but still that thing scared me so bad I was Twilight now so that way I could snuggle up to her at bedtime The power had came back on a couple of hours ago but I was still crying and I don’t know why all I know is I was scared and could not stop crying I just don’t know what that thing was it looked like a messed up hybrid of a bug and alicorn I had managed to calm down finally “Wh-what was th-that t-thing?” it had been a couple of hours and after Jero’s failed attempts to calm me down and cleaning up something and I wont say what Jero smiled as he patted me on the back “Its alright Nova now just tell me what it was you saw” I sniffled and started to explain what that thing was that I had seen when I finished Jero’s eyes widened “Nova that was a changling!” I looked at Jero confused “A what?” what the heck is a changling I mean it this thing I saw was freaky Jero ran upstairs leaving me alone I started shaking again until he came back with a book and for some reason my Smarty Pants doll I grabbed that thing and hugged I don’t know why I know I said this already but that thing makes me feel safe and even though Twilight is not here when I hug this I feel like Twilight is here I think that is the one reason she gave it to me I was not even paying attention but Jero was opening the book he had brought Jero pointed to something in the book “This is a normal changling, Is this what you saw?” I just shook my head he kept pointing to page after page with different pictures of changlings but I kept shaking my head on each one of them “Well what did it look like?” I sniffled and wiped some of the tears from my eyes “W-well it it had a red coat almost like a crimson color a-and holes in its legs a-a-and a b-black mane and tail” I wanted to start crying again but I will not I sniffled again “I-it has been doing stuff like that ever night for the past few days a-and every night f-for the past few days” I felt tears forming in my eyes again “I-t just looked at me through my bedroom window” I really hate how stuff like that scares me so easily “S-so what I do is sneak into Twilight’s room and climb into her bed” I know it is what a child would do but I am a child now “OK calm down you are safe” I nodded understanding what Jero was saying I know they would never let anything hurt me “Now when Twilight gets back tomorrow I will tell her what is going on” I nodded “Jero can I ask you something?” I asked Jero smiled and nodded “Can I sleep with you tonight?” I saw Jero trying not to laugh “Sure thing” I smiled as he picked me up “Wait where are you taking me?” “Its bedtime that is where” ________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next day yawning looking around I saw I was not in the guest bedroom and looking at the time I saw it was two in the afternoon I just shook it off even though today is tusday I jumped off the bed streaching and yawning I decided to go downstairs and see if I was here alone seeing as it is day time I don’t think that changling will bother me….at least I hope not when I got downstairs I saw Twilight was back and talking to Fluttershy my eyes snapped open as I went into a full gallop and jumped on Twilight’s lap I hugged her as tight as I could I know it makes me seems like a mommas boy but screw off after what I went through I really missed her Twilight returned the hug “I missed you too Nova” I know I said I would never say this out loud but who cares “I missed you too mommy” I heard Fluttershy ‘aww’ at that sight but who cares because it is true in the four months I have been in Equestria she has grown on me like a mother I swear if I catch crap about it I am going to be kinda pissed I hope nopony told her about me hitting Lime Wire in the head with a book that little I don’t know what to call him had it coming though Twilight nuzzled me “I missed you and I heard about the changling that is stalking you” Twilight smiled “I wont let anything harm you I promise” I hugged Twilight even tighter after that I know she means it and I know that none of my friends would let any harm come to me heck if anything they are a big family to me we always have each others back no matter what “Oh well I am so sorry for the power going out” Fluttershy said “Its not your fault Fluttershy it could not be helped it was just a thunderstorm” That scared me “Other wise everything else was fine” besides my fear of thunder that scares the living crap out of me and last night when I startedd crying for a couple of hours like the wuss I am turning into because of who knows why but still I can tell that everypony here will help me out through anything they can I looked to my side and noticed a bag I don’t know who it belonges too but I really could not care less….what is Twilight doing with that hair brush I started squirming “Hold still Nova” Twilight said as she held me down and started brushing my mane oh good that is all she is doing I thought she was going to hit me with it after Twilight had finished brushing my mane I heard the one thing that could not have worse timing one of the biggist cracks of thinder ever I immediately gipped onto Twilight for safty “Oh my I forgot that a storm was scudualed for today” Fluttershy said as I kept my grip on Twilight I refuse to start crying well again at least I saw Jero come in the door from weather duty I am guessing I still did not let go of Twilight she is like a safty blanket “Hey everypony” Jero said I just waved to him not moving an inch or loosening up “Hi Jero” Both Twilight and Fluttershy said at the same time “Umm Jero I am sorry to ask this of you but me and the girls are going out tonight think you can keep an eye on” Twilight smirked “The little foal who wont let go of his mommy” Oh Twilight you asked for it I felt a blush growing on my cheeks from that statement but I kept my face buried in Twilight’s chest “I can let go at any time I want to!” Jero sighed “Sure I can watch Nova again” Good other wise I would be alone again and freak out and most likely I would start crying again from the fear I am like Fluttershy when she is near a dragon well a full grown dragon when I hear a crack of thunder I freeze up “Thank you Jero” Fluttershy said in her normal sweet and very low tone of voice I gotta say it is kinda cute if you think about it I finally decided to let Twilight out of my iron grip Twilight gave me a kiss on the cheek before putting me on the couch inbetween herself and Fluttershy man these ponies really do love me _____________________________________________________________________________ The sun had went down yet the storm had not calmed down I was still scared “Hey Nova do you want some cocoa?” Jero asked I shrugged “I guess I would like some coffee but I already know the answer to that is a big no” Jero laughed as he brought me a mug of hot cocoa I held it with my hooves seeing as I know if I use my magic I will some how drop it and burn myself “So where is Scootaloo at?” “I don’t know the whole time I have been here I know nothing of her home life nor do I know her parents” Jero said “Oh she does not have any parents” I said calmly I saw Jero’s eyes widen “WHAT!?” Jero’s asked “Where is she right now!?” I srugged again “I am guessing she is staying with Applebloom” I don’t know where she stays it is not my job to keep up with her I am not her father after all I am only a little colt so yeah it is not my fault “What do you mean you guess?” Jero asked one again I shrugged Author's Note So yeah I know the past few chapters are REALLY small but I have been working with my moms laptop and the keys on the keyboard are 1 or 2cm so yeah.....BUT the next chapter I will try and make a BIG BIG BIG chapter remember I will try so dont get your hopes up Chapter 12:The Orange FillyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ Jero had left about thirty minuets ago both myself and Angel where playing poker that dang bunny is good I will say I never thought I would see the day when I got beat in poker by a freaking bunny I have now seen everything yet the one pony I have yet to see is Trixie and I really want to see her that would be awesome I mean sure she has a big ego but who cares we can all boast some times or in Rainbow Dash’s case a lot well I don’t do it that is for sure the poker game was interupted by Jero slamming through the front door with a shivering pegasus filly “Quick Nova go and get a blanket” Jero said as he placed Scootaloo in front of the fire place as I came downstairs with a blanket that had little pictures of chickens on it I know Jero might get all mad about it but instead he just took the blanket and covered Scootaloo with it "How could I have not guessed this" I don't know what to say I mean it I am at a loss for words "Jero what are you going to do?" I asked he did not look at me Jero just looked down "I-I just don't know Nova I just don't know" _________________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next day in the guest bedroom I could hear Scootaloo talking I trotted downstairs and made myself known "Good morning" I saw Scootaloo with tearful eyes looking back at me crap what wrong did I do "Good morning" I saw a small smirk growing on Scootaloo's face "How did you sleep squirt?" "Did she just call me squirt really!?" I grinned "pretty good and how did you sleep chicken?" that one might have went too far but who cares I sure don't "I slept better than I have in my whole life" Scootaloo said as I went over to the table sitting down on one of the pillows smiling a little I looked into Scootaloo's eyes "So what did you and Jero talk about?" I asked "W-well we just spoke about why I did not come to anypony about not having anywhere to live" Scootaloo took a deep breath "A-and I told him I was too scared to tell anypony because I was scared that they would send me to an orphanage in Canterlot or some place far away from Ponyville" I feel bad for Scootaloo she is scared that they will send her off but they would not do that I am sure of it I put my hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder "Don't worry Scootaloo there is no way in Equestria anypony would EVER send you off" _________________________________________________________________________________________ I decided that since it was late in the afternoon I would go out and help Jero with his chores around the cottage I got flower duty so I had to water all of the flowers at Fluttershy's house so I knew that would take me forever but anything to help out a friend the only thing I did not care for is I have to hold the watering pot in my mouth I still though both Scootaloo and Jero went to the mayor’s office to do something about the Scootaloo situation I hope she says yes so that way everything can get back to normal I know this seems like I am acting immature but I don’t really care I hate being left alone for hours at a time but at least I had finished the chores I went and put up everything from the chores the only thing I do not like is Twilight got Rarity to make me two pairs of those accursed pajamas one of them has a book pattern on them and the other have little numbers on them Twilight had to wash the ones with the book pattern on them so now until Twilight gets back witch will be after tonight and I already know I will be asleep but who cares I hate how much Twilight has to go out it seems like she never has time for me any more well I mean she is busy a lot with sending letters to the princess and all of that _________________________________________________________________________________________ I had fallen asleep on the couch not even caring I woke up just barely as the door shut I could hear a voice or two they belonged to Jero and Scootaloo I did not want to open my eyes instead I wanted to stay asleep I would have gotten up but I was so sleepy and so lazy I heard Jero let out a laugh “Well it looks like Nova fell asleep” Jero said as he picked me up I kept my eyes shut as Jero carried me “Looks like the little guy tuckered himself out while we where gone” I felt some sort of soft cloth being put on me the next noise I heard was a zipper I cracked my eyes open “No I am not sleepy” I protested trying to stay awake only to hear Scootaloo giggle “Aww did the little colt tire himself out?” Scootaloo asked as she giggled again when I opened my eyes I saw I was wearing a pair of hoofsie pajamas the ones with little numbers on them I blushed when I saw them “Do I have to wear these?” I asked Jero just nodded “Sorry but these are the only ones Twilight packed for you” Jero said as he put me on the bed “And I spoke to the mayor she said that the paper work I filled out should be processed with in the next week and Scootaloo will be legally my daughter” I kept fighting to keep my eyes open “That is good but I am not sleepy” after a while of struggling I ended up falling asleep both Jero and Scootaloo walked out of the room laughing it up at me “Well Scootaloo I guess you can sleep with me tonight if you want to that is” Jero said as he let out a small yawn of his own “That sounds good” Scootaloo said letting out a yawn of her on Author's Note Well everypony this is where the story is really taking off but as you remember the changling from a few chapters ago well lets say this he will be back Chapter 13:Help Me.....Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ Another day in school today was alright. I mean sure, it is with a bunch of foals but who cares? Cheerilee put on some music today so that was good, but still I can’t help shake this feeling that I am being watched. I looked behind me “Hello, anypony there?” huh, nothing. I can’t shake it though. It feels like that ‘changeling’ or whatever it was called is following me. I shuddered at the thought of that thing as I kept walking. I just wanted to go back to the library and take a little nap, I have not slept well in the past few days and yes it is because I cannot find my Smarty Pants doll. That and I am too scared to sleep at night because I still feel like something is watching me, be it a changeling or something else, so I just climb into Twilight’s bed and snuggle up to her, she can take Smarty pants’ place. For now... I sighed “Well she told me to spend some time getting to know other ponies.” I stood still for a second “I guess I could do that, or lie about it.” I smirked and just kept trotting. I guess I could go to that one tree and finish the daring doo book that I have been trying to finish for who knows how long now. I know it has been a few days since I started it. I kept walking, only to be stopped by Sweetie Drops “Hey Nova, come here.” I let out a small sigh and went over to her “Here you go kiddo.” Sweetie Drops said before she put a brown paper bag into my saddle bags. I smiled a little “Thanks Sweetie Drops.” I wonder what she put in that bag. I guess I will find out later. I know Twilight packed me a nice little juice box. “You are welcome Nova” Sweetie Drops said, patting me on the head “Just don’t tell Twilight alright” Sweetie Drops added with a wink. I let out a small laugh “Ok Sweetie Drops.” Man her name sounds strange “I won’t tell Twilight.” I continued trotting to the tree. Today so far has been pretty good I will say, first off we got to listen to music in school and now Sweetie Drops gave me a free candy! This is so AWESOME! I wonder what will happen next. Nothing, because I am at my location, the shady tree I sat at last time I read. I sat down and opened my saddle bags, pulling out my book and opening it to the page I was last on. _________________________________________________________________________________________ I let out a small yawn, I had been out here reading this one book all day and I gotta say, I am a little tired. Though that candy Sweetie Drops gave me was pretty good. I looked up at the sky “Huh, it’s getting pretty dark out.” I said aloud while I packed my saddle bags and began trotting back to the library. Twilight had decided to set a curfew for me earlier this week “I hope Twilight is not mad that I am a little late.” The whole walk to the library I could not stop feeling like I was being watched, I turned several times but there was nothing, I was alone “Ugg I think I am even more tired than I thought.” I kept just walking, hoping to get home soon, until I heard something and turned to look. Just as the last time I checked, nothing was there. “Listen, if somepony is pulling a prank, you need to stop! It’s not funny!” I started trotting a little faster. “Come on. Whoever this is you are scaring me.” I said now running as fast as I could, I kept hearing what sounded like a bee “Seriously Rainbow Dash, if this is you just stop. You are taking it too far now.” I was in a full blown gallop, now racing towards the library. The buzzing kept getting louder and closer “HELP ME SOMEPONY!” I shouted, running faster now crying. I kept running until I saw a figure land in front of me “Aw, is the little foal lost?” when I looked up at it I saw it was that changeling thing. I tried running in the other direction only to be caught in its magical grip “Don’t worry; I will take you ‘home’.” ________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight had been all over Ponyville searching for Nova, yet she could not find him. She had checked at Sugar Cube Corner, Sweet Apple Acres, Twilight had even asked most of her friends but none of them had seen him all day. Twilight even asked Ditzy Doo and Berry Punch, neither of them had seen the little colt “I hope Nova is alright.” Twilight said as she worriedly made her way to Fluttershy’s cottage. “Let’s think, I have checked with Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity, along with Cheerilee.” Twilight let out a frustrated groan “So now let’s think. The last pony to see him was Cheerilee and she has not seen him since after school.” Twilight started trotting a little faster “If he fell asleep at Fluttershy’s house I know he is in good hooves.” Twilight just sighed “Maybe I should let my parents meet Nova......or maybe not yet.” Twilight arrived at Fluttershy’s cottage, nearly in full gallop. Knocking on the door she could hear some commotion “For the love of Celestia what did Nova do?” Twilight asked to nopony in particular. She knocked on the door again. After waiting another ten minutes or so, the door swung open revealing a clearly annoyed Jero and Fluttershy. The two looked at Twilight for a few seconds. “Hey Twilight, what is it?” Jero asked Fluttershy noticed the worry on her friends face “Oh, umm Twilight come in” she then hid behind her mane “If you want to that is.” Twilight smiled and stepped inside, seeing the living room was a wreck. Twilight looked again seeing Angel in what Fluttershy called his ‘quiet area.’ The lavender mare took a seat on the couch before looking at her friends. “Twilight, is something wrong?” Jero asked “Umm Twilight you look a little upset” Fluttershy said stating the obvious Twilight took a deep breath “Have you seen Nova?” Author's Note So everypony I have been planning this out for a while now it will be about 2 or 3 chapters so I hope you all enjoy so far Chapter 14:My Cutie Mark! YAY!Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ Let’s see… It has been three days since that 'changeling' took me and now I am bored and a tad bit hungry, I need a bath and desperately. I have not had one all day and I am starting to smell like a...... AppleJack is better at doing that. But let me put it this way; I don't smell like a patch of roses, there is one, but still I want to know why they have taken me. Here let’s see. There is a brown stallion, a gold colored mare, and last but not least the freaking 'changeling' those bug eyes are creepy I shuddered from the memory still. At least they gave me a decent sized room with a bed and a lamp but that is all, the room has a bathroom so I am golden, well really it is just a toilet but I get to bathe though I am only given two minutes a day so I have to try and make it fast, only getting to wash my mane. I jumped onto my bed and started a staring match with the wall. Sadly, I was losing. I just stared for what felt like years "This is so boring" I whined and yes I will admit it, I whined. So what? "I wish I was back home, with the other crusaders." I flopped on my belly, I don't understand why this had to happen to me, out of anypony else; not that I would want this to happen to anypony. Trust me I would not. But the only thing I hate is I miss my Smarty Pants doll I know that it may seem foalish but I do. Sleeping isn’t as easy without it or Twilight, in case I couldn’t find him. I continued my little pity party until I heard a knock on the door; I am betting it is the stallion, what was his name? Oh yeah, it was Dark Blade, or the 'changling' Mirror Recall I just hope it is Storm Bringer the mare she is the nicest out of them all heck she somehow snuck me a little bit of ice cream and let me tell you it was good but what I find very odd is they are all blank flanks. Grown ponies without their cutie marks, I didn’t think it was possible. I was able to see the mane of the one entering sticking through the door, I don't know why but they are all black. Who knows "Hey kid, you awake?" Dark Blade asked, I wanted to make a snide remark or pretend to be asleep but I know that might end badly. Like having my bed taken away, leaving me to sleep on the floor, and before you say anything I’m not acting like Rarity; it isn’t that it’s dirty, it’s just really uncomfortable. I sighed "Yeah, I am awake. What do you need?" He trotted in "Well I know you are wondering why we took you." _________________________________________________________________________________ I sat there after he had left, jaw on the floor, not believing any of it. Because of Twilight and her brother they want to hurt Twilight by taking ME, her child. This is wrong, I felt my horn spark a little "As soon as I can figure out a spell it is so on" I jumped off my bed and started pacing around the room "This sucks. The least they can do is send her a letter or something to let her know I am alright." I kept my pacing up "I miss everypony." I looked out the window, which was out of my reach "But I out of all the crusaders I miss Dinky the most." I felt a faint blush growing on my face thinking about her but now is NOT the time for my crush now is the time to escape or try at least. _________________________________________________________________________________ It has been a few hours but I had done it finally I had perfected a spell to help me escape I smirked I went to the door I know they kept it unlocked I don't understand why but they do I opened it only to hear somepony scream "Where is he!?" wait that almost sounded like......TWILIGHT! I began to gallop grinning that she had found me so fast but when I got into the room I saw she was angry Twilight's coat had turned white and her mane and tail were on fire wow so this is what rapidash Twilight looks like just wow she is MAD but something snapped in me I saw the 'changling' slam into her "You did not just her her" I said they all looked at me "YOU DID NOT JUST HURT MY MOTHER!" I felt like I was starting to float in the air "You.Do.Not.Bucking.Touch MY FAMILY" That is when it happened the unexplainable I felt my magic taking over my body it feels like the episode where Twilight got her cutie mark my eye's glowed white with magic as my horn lit up I could not control my self I saw Twilight standing there in shock while Jero was laying on the ground that is what caused me to loose all control "Nova!" Twilight shouted trying to get me to calm down I read something in a book about something with unicorns my age's magic is sometimes powered my emotions "Nova you have to calm down" I could not stop what was going on "DAMIAN!" Jero shouted "You have to stop and control yourself" I felt myself lowering as I soon fainted but before that there was one more flash of light and everything went dark Author's Note Nova got his cutie mark now but this is not the end of it trust me on that also I want to thank Clearshot01 for helping me think of names for Dark Blade,Storm Bringer and last but not least the changling Mirror Recall also I know I know I know it took a while to update but I kinda lost the file for this chapter so yeah :p hope you like Chapter 7:First School Day.Bullies,The New CMC & And A Welcoming PartyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ It was a normal day for the weather team, Jero and Rainbow Dash were preparing for a storm, moving the clouds into their correct positions. It had taken the pair hours to do seeing as everyone else on the weather team had all came down with something known as ‘feather flu’. Rainbow Dash was frustrated that it was only her and Jero on weather duty. After getting the last patch of cloud, Rainbow Dash noticed something. “Hey Jero did you put that cloud over there?” Rainbow Dash asked staring at Jero with a look of confusion on her face. The cloud she had spotted was lingering over the Everfree Forest. “No, it wasn't me, you don't think it could've come from the Everfree, do you?” Jero asked . “Nope I don’t think it could have” Rainbow Dash stated flying over to the cloud with Jero flanking her after a second they started to hit the cloud in hopes of breaking it “It won't budge” Jero on the other hoof was trying to move the cloud “Maybe we should try and move it” When Rainbow Dash did not answer “Jero move NOW!” Rainbow Dash screamed taking off Jero did not understand why she told him to move until the cloud exploded causing him to fall only to land in a blue flower “YOU OKAY DOWN THERE? THAT LOOKS LIKE IT HURT!” “I'm ok! Nothing broken.” Jero replied while brushing his coat off realizing the flowers he landed in “ Uh oh...” “Oh this is not good” Rainbow Dash said as if coincidence Zecora was walking their way “Hello my good friend Jero” Zecora said smiling walking to the pair “I hope all is well” “Zecora! Man, is it lucky you showed up just now.I seem to have landed on some Poison Joke. You wouldn't happen to have any antidote on you, would you?” Jero asked with hope filled eyes “Not with me it seems the joke has no mean for soon time will tell” Zecora said “Great.” Jero let out a sigh “ At least it isn't contagious or dangerous” Jero thought to himself “Well when do you think you could make some more?” “It seems I do not have all the supplies with me only at my hut when I do I will fix you up Zecora smiled Jero nodded “Ok, thank you Zecora. *sigh* I guess I will just have to deal with whatever the poison joke does to me until then.” “Oh if you turn into a mare it will be funny or even a foal” Rainbow Dash said with a laugh “You should rest and hope for the best” Zecora said trying her best to reassure Jero he would be fine “Don't even joke about that Rainbow.” Jero nodded at Zecora “You're right Zecora. I'll see you soon. “ With that Jero and Rainbow Dash took off Jero had arrived at home seeing Fluttershy tending to her garden when she turned around she noticed him “Oh welcome home Jero” “Hey Fluttershy.” Jero then kissed Fluttershy on the cheek “Um...I need to tell you something.” “What is it did something bad happen?” Fluttershy asked eyes widened as she started hyperventilating “Well, I was helping Rainbow with weather duty when we ran into an odd cloud. We tried to move it and it wouldn't budge and later we found out it was unstable and going to explode. We flew out of the way, but the wind caused me to lose balance and I crashed in a flower patch. I'm OK but....the patch had some Poison Joke in it” Jero explained “Oh are you alright you? did not get hurt did you? are your wings okay?” Fluttershy started bombarding Jero with questions Jero gave Fluttershy a kiss to help calm her” I'm OK Fluttershy, nothing hurt or broken.” “Well did Zecora help you with a cure?” Fluttershy asked Jero just shook his head “She said she didn't have any on her right now, but that she was going to work on it and give it to me as soon as she can. Til then, I just have to deal with whatever the Poison Joke does to me” “Good well I made some lunch it is in the house but” Fluttershy started shifting around uncomfortably “Fluttershy? What's wrong?” Jero asked looking into Fluttershy’s blue eyes “Well Angel kinda attacked Nova” Fluttershy said Jero just sighed “Again? I don't understand what Angel's problem is with Nova. Is he OK?” Jero asked “Yes I put Angel in his quiet area” “What about Nova?” Jero asked “Oh he is just sitting on the couch with an ice pack on his eye” Fluttershy explained “I'll go see him.” _______________________________________________________________________ I sat there holding an ice pack on my eye after that little demon in a bunny suit got a good hit on me...Demon in a bunny suit now I am reminded of Frank The Bunny (for those of you who do not know that is from Donnie Darko) Still for a bunny at his size he is strong never expected that still now I am sitting on this couch holding an ice pack to my eye when I heard the door open I looked over to see Jero “Hey you ok?” Jero asked “Yeah I’m fine evil little rabbit” I said hearing a chuckle from him “He did not like me when I first came here either but trust me Angel will warm up to you” Jero said smiling at me “ I hoped he would not be like on the show. What about you Pole?” I asked seeing Jero now with a deadpanned expression “I thought I told you not to call me that anymore...” “Oh come on you know I love teasing you with that” I said now laughing “I know you like teasing me, but could you not use that? It's been such a long time and you still haven't let that go.” Jero said “Its kinda hard, but Fluttershy could hear about a certain story.” Jero’s eyes widened at the thought of me showing it to her “You wouldn't....” “You never know, I might.” I said with a evil grin instead it made me look kinda stupid “Try it and I'll use what I learned from Fluttershy like last time, remember?” Jero threatening me why I never “That is not a fair call but fine I won't tell her..say do you have your laptop?” He is good I will say last time I could not move for thirty minutes “Huh, I haven't used that in a long time, but I should. Why?” “I need to check my email and some other things” “I could lend it to you for that. Come on.” Jero then picked me up carrying me into his and Fluttershy’s room “Oh the room of fun” I said with a slight grin only to see a blush grow on his face Jero then sat me on the bed as he went to a cabinet grabbing his laptop setting it in front of me “Here you go” “Hey Jero care to give me a hoof” I said with a dumb yet witty expression as he opened the laptop typing in the password so I could get on my email when I got an idea out of the blue “Hey Jero I need some help” With the trap set he came over “What do you need help with?” Good Jero took the bait “Say cheese” I said smugly before taking a picture “What the....where did you get a camera!?” Jero half yelled “It’s mine, I brought it with me” I said laughing “That and this thing has a camera in it” Still though I think I might send this to his parents for a laugh “Say Jero did you parents change their email?” I asked innocently as possible “Let me guess you want to send that picture to my parents don’t you?” Jero asked my jaw dropped when he asked that how did he know “That depends are you going to try and stop me from it?” I know he could just pick me or stare me down which is not a fair match in my opinion “Go ahead. I missed you dude” Jero smiled at me heh I was hoping for a bit of a fight either way I hit that send button faster than he could blink after a little while I heard a knock on the door and jumped fifty feet in the air “Oh my goodness are you ok Nova” Its just Fluttershy I am just fine so why did I jump “I’m good” Not really she scared the crap out of me but I will let her think I am fine “Oh well I made dinner” “Thanks Fluttershy we will be down in a minute” Jero then looked right at me “After we wash out hooves” “Oh come on” with that I was dragged in the bathroom this is not a fair match he is stronger than me but after a round of hoof washing both Jero and myself went down stairs to the most wonderful smell in the world “Oh wow Fluttershy I smell vegetable soup” Jero said holy crap that’s what that is wow just wow I am at a loss for words I could only trot to a chair and jumped in it after a few second’s of the waiting game Fluttershy was so kind to bring me a bowl of soup well kindness is her element so it makes perfect sense “Thanks Fluttershy” I said trying to pick up my spoon it was difficult that is for sure when I finally got it I dropped it a few seconds later I heard both Jero and Fluttershy giggling “What is so funny?” “You are” Jero said as he booped my nose why you putting those hooves on my face I don’t know if they are clean or dirty still he has been here longer than me so he knows how to use spoons and stuff with out magic so I do not find it too funny “That is not funny for one I am not used to well not having hands so...yeah awkward” I was hoping that somepony would kill the awkwardness “Oh Jero I forgot Twilight had to run to Canterlot so Nova is staying here” “Even though I can take care of myself” I mumbled “I know you can take care of yourself Nova, but you’re still a colt on the outside and you might need help from time to time” “Yeah I need help learning how to keep a evil demon bunny away from me” I glared at Angel hearing an audible laugh from him “What the f-” “Nova, don’t you dare finish that word.” said Jero “What word was he going to say?” Fluttershy asked meekly “I think it would be best if you didn’t know Fluttershy” Jero replied while giving Nova a look “When I can use teleportation spells Angel will be sent to, I dunno, the Everfree.” I growled looking at that bunny “Maybe you should rename him Frank” I kept my eye’s on Angel witch is not even the correct name for that bunny I can think of so many better names than Angel _______________________________________________________________________ After a nice dinner and a bath and Fluttershy outside the door knocking every second making sure that I was ok when I had finished I grabbed a towel drying myself off I walked out of the bathroom somehow sparkling I mean like actually sparkling like the way Spike’s eyes sparkle when he sees Rarity Wow Fluttershy the shampoo and stuff had my coat sparkling” I said with a smile I mean come on where did she get it at “Oh it was from the Crystal Kingdom” I now had a derp face for one what is the crystal kingdom “What is the Crystal Kingdom?” I seriously have no clue I have heard that somewhere though I can’t remember “The Crystal Kingdom is ruled over by Princess Cadence and Shining Armor” Wait did Jero just say Twilight’s brother’s name holy crap so the rumors about seasons three were true or are true “Well come on time for all little ponies to go to bed” Fluttershy said pushing me into a bed even though I could clearly stay up longer but I will not be the one who makes the mistake of pissing off Fluttershy _______________________________________________________________________ I woke up groggily sitting up I let out a small yawn shaking the sleepiness from my head jumping onto the floor trotting into Jero and Fluttershy’s room I saw no Fluttershy but I saw a lump on her bed “Good morning Jero” I shouted only to hear him scream this made me laugh the next thing I knew I had a blanket on my head I shook it off right as the bathroom door slammed shut “You could have just said you needed to use the bathroom I would have let you go first” “I am sorry but Jero is not here right now please try your call again later” Wow just wow Jero that was funny but still that only works over the phone NOT through a door still very clever “Nice try Jero but I can tell you're in the bathroom so open up or I will blast the door down” I am giving him a fair warning “You can’t even use magic” Crap he is smart I will say that after arguing through a door Fluttershy came in the room to see what all the ruckus was about “What is going on in here?” Fluttershy asked it sounded more like she was demanding but still her house her rules “You got me Jero threw the blankets on my and took off for the bathroom” I am still wondering why he did that “I will come out if Nova promises not to laugh” I just sighed when Jero said that “Jero you know I can not do that for the life of me so come on out I won’t laugh in your face” Sometimes I think Jero is as shy or more than Fluttershy who knows I heard a click of the door when I looked it was “Jero!?” I was holding my laughter in but I felt like I was going to bust at any second I snickered “Pardon me” With that I ran out of the room cackling but still in earshot so I could hear them “Aww poor thing I guess the poison joke affected you and turned you into one of the cutest foal’s I have ever seen” Fluttershy said to Jero they do not know it but I am still laughing Jero sniffled “It also seems it has made me more sensitive” No I don’t think it has but what ever I trotted back into the room still laughing a little just then I saw Fluttershy’s eyes almost pop out of her head and now she is pacing. “Oh no oh no oh no I just remembered” Fluttershy said now freaking out dang I just remembered myself thanks a lot “What’s wrong Fluttershy” Jero asked with his new squeaky voice heh I have jokes now “Oh I just remember today Nova starts school” OH COME ON FLUTTERSHY WHY JUST WHY!? man this is so messed up I am living in a library hello books everywhere along with Twilight “Do I have to go?” I asked in a childish whining voice I do not want to go to kindergarten my pride will die a little everyday if I have to go there “Yes you do Nova” Fluttershy scolded me that is when I got one of the best ideas I will ever have I swear it is just awesome “Well I might be able to go if I had somepony I know going with me” I hinted looking at Jero “Wait do you want me to go with you?” Jero asked now realizing what I was getting at “Yes it might help me be a little braver if I had a friend” I said giving a pair of puppy dog eyes “Please Jero it would help him an awful lot” Yes Fluttershy is on my side sweet “Well I guess it would not hurt” “Thank you Jero” I said gratefully “I guess I will tell Miss Cheerilee that she will have one extra student” Fluttershy stated looking at both me and Jero “I want you too both behave yourselves while I am out” I was not listening I was too busy having a stare down with a certain evil bunny “Ready for round two I see” Angel gave me an evil glare “I will get the ice packs ready” Jero said as I lunged towards the bunny letting out a battle cry _______________________________________________________________________ Fluttershy had come back seeing me and Angel in our epic battle one blow later and both of us were on the ground not even noticing Fluttershy “Okay Angel how about a truce?” I asked in hopes he would agree which he did thank Celestia “Oh my goodness are you two okay!?” Fluttershy was now frantic rushing to our sides “You should not have been rough housing in the first place!” Now she is scolding us both Angel and myself started laughing “Sorry Fluttershy” I am not looking forward to what she is going to say “Well Miss Cheerilee said both you and Jero can come in for her afternoon kindergarten class” Fluttershy killed my pride by reminding me “Speaking of Jero where is he at?” “Right here I got trapped in the couch during Nova and Angel’s fight” Oh yeah thats right he got knocked in the couch “Help me” With that Fluttershy went and pulled him out good thing too I am feeling lazy and a little tired “So when is her afternoon class?” I asked in hopes it was not soon “It is in about four hours” Fluttershy said as I let out a yawn I guess I am still sleepy “Well how about you take a little nap before you have to go” How did she even get me on the couch all I know is that I am sleepy _______________________________________________________________________ I woke up I don’t know how long later but I was being shook and I did not care for it I lazily and groggily opened my eyes to see Fluttershy looking at me telling me ‘wake up’ “I’m up calm down Fluttershy” I am not fully awake just barely though its just enough to get her to stop shaking me if she would have kept going I would have puked “Come on lets get your mane brushed” That one made my eyes shoot open “No just no it is fine trust me I know it is on my head” Holy crap that was close I think that was an elaborate troll to wake me up for some “Good job Fluttershy that worked” Oh so you are in on this Jero he must know with me payback is no fun “Come on lets get going” Fluttershy is now nudging me out the door oh goodie today is going to be fun not really “Oh and there is going to be a surprise after school for you” “Oh yay I can not wait for my crappy new day” I know I am being sarcastic but still who cares if I run into Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon and they start crap I will practice magic for a few days come back AND I will throw them to Canterlot teleport there and throw them back to Ponyville “Come on I will be with you” Jero said a little too cheerfully I noticed he had some saddle bags on and it had his cutie mark on it that is pretty cool I will say the next thing I knew I had a pair slapped on me and with the both Jero and myself made our way to school While walking I was very tempted to run off and not go to school but I knew I would regret that decision in an instant somepony would catch me and I might get in trouble I would hate to piss off well anypony still though I gotta say it is kinda creepy being smaller than everypony it is deeply disturbing knowing that they could over power me in an instant Still I don’t think any of the ponies here would harm me or anypony for that matter well they might yell at somepony but that is all ponies would wave at both me and Jero and the occasional pony would say ‘Hi’ witch I would happily say hello to them Still the whole walk to the school was long and awfully quiet except for the chatter of ponies around us still we arrived at the school in a reasonable amount of time and I was not looking forward to the day ahead of me When we came to the front door there was magenta mare standing at the door smiling waiting for all her ‘little ponies’ to come into the school still though I don’t think Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon could come and bother me seeing as they are older now and I am in kindergarten As I walked to the door I saw Cheerilee smiling at me “You must be our new student Nova correct?” She ask and I nodded “Okay good well when class starts we can introduce you” I eyes widened at the thought but I could only nod in agreement “Well lets do this I guess” I really want to run now I mean just take off and not look back but alas it is too late the bell rang and Jero took a seat after that Cheerilee got me to stand in front of the class my heart started racing from the fear “Hello all my little ponies” Cheerilee said cheerfully wow that was not clever at all “This is our new student Nova please make him feel welcome” she smiled at gave me a nudge “Go on say something” “Hello everypony. Well my name is Nova you know this now but well long story short I live with Twilight” I heard them chattering I really hate stuff like that just doing stuff like this Cheerilee was so kind as to point me to a seat which I sat in _______________________________________________________________________ Four torturing hours of school I wanted to just I don’t know it was annoying but it is over at last and I can not get the taste of pencil out of my mouth that makes things worse “See? That was not so bad” Jero said looking at me I now own a deadpanned expression. I have never cared for school, well I guess because on Earth people sucked. Well, not Jero he was nice. “Yeah it was not so bad who are you kidding I never liked school even when they are nice I hate it” I still can not believe how much it sucked I know I sound like a broken record but it is true. “I admit, it was a bit boring consider we both already know all that, but at least it’s over now right?” “Yea-” I stopped what I was going to say seeing a pink filly along with one evil companion “You have GOT to be kidding. They are here” “Who are you...Oh..” Jero gives a small glare “Them...” “Oh look at the blank flanks.” Diamond Tiara you have made my day not really “I thought that I he-” “Let me just stop you right there because I do not care what you have to say you stuck up little brat” I know this is bold and I am scared on the inside but still I must stand my ground “Now I can be your friend or you enemy I would try and hope you make the correct choice and make me your friend. I am not one you want to get angry” Jero looked at me in shock. “Nova....” Now I hear Silver Spoon cackling like a hyena “Oh what are you going to do tell your mommy?” Silver Spoon said like a brat her true form Jero glared at both of them and stood next to me “You say we are pathetic, when you two have nothing better to do than to insult those without cutie marks yet, even if they are just in kindergarten!? I think the only two pathetic excuses for a pony I see here is you two!” The only thing I can say about Jero when you piss him off is run for the hills and don’t look back he is like a bomb when he gets mad “Now I want to you two to just leave my friend alone!” Jero stomps his hoof on the ground making a very small crack on it “Or else....” “Oh, what can you do about it.” Diamond Tiara looked right into Jero’s eyes it was silent for a moment until we all heard a southern accent telling them to leave us alone. “Jero you remember that surprise Fluttershy was speaking of?” I whispered to him Jero smiled as he recognizes the voice “I should’ve known....” “Geez Diamond Tiara, can’t you two leave ponies who do not have a cutie mark alone?” Yes, Sweetie Belle’s adorableness to the rescue! “Look Diamond, its the cutie mark cry babies” Jero and I walk over to the CMC and Jero looks at them again “Their name is the Cutie Mark Crusaders and I can tell you that they are better ponies than you two could ever be!” “That is ex cutie mark crusaders we are now recruiting for a second generation of them” WAIT, WHAT!? IS SCOOTALOO JOKING!? “Oh right. Had almost forgotten. Thanks for reminding me Scootaloo.” “Just leave or face my wrath and that is nothing you want to face” I trotted to both of them staring right into both of their eyes “If you do not leave it will be the worst mistake you ever make, do you understand?” Jero smirks a little and thinks to himself ‘Even as a colt, he still looks after himself. He really hasn’t changed a bit.’ I saw the two evil fillies run off in what I hope was terror or fear of what I might do to them it works out either way for me “So, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, AppleBloom what do you need?” I am very tempted to call her Squeaky Belle “I’m guessing that Fluttershy told you three what happened to me and asked for you to meet us here?” asked Jero “Eeyup” Wow I got to witness AppleBloom say that awesome wait where are they taking me why am I being dragged in Sweetie Belle’s magic and when did she learn magic “GAH LEMME GO WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME!?” Jero chuckles and runs after them. “You could at least wait for me!” _______________________________________________________________________ After being forcibly taken somewhere against my will I noticed a very very familiar tree house wait do they do this to all ‘recruits’ they drag them against their will and getting Sweetie Belle using her magic to take them there “You know I can walk on my own” I am still annoyed they did that “So could you be as so kind as to PUT ME DOWN” “Oops sorry about that” With that Sweetie Belle dropped me at the door “Ouch” I just don’t even know why I can hear Jero snickering behind me oh payback is going to suck big time “This is your surprise” Jero said I hope he is joking “WELCOME TO THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!” All three of them where as so kind as to yell at the same time now they need to welcome me to losing my hearing man I do not know why I am being sarcastic but it is kinda fun “Uh thanks I guess” I really do not know what to say “GAH WHAT IS THAT!?” They threw something on me oh I know in order to be a member you have to have the crap kicked out of you by them “Its you official crusader cape” Scootaloo said beaming I am very tempted to call her a chicken now “Wait I am a member of the cutie mark crusaders am I the only one?” I am curious now “Nnope you are the fourth member” AppleBloom said in her little southern accent “Yeah the other’s are uhh” Scootaloo is having a brain derp “Geez Scootaloo the other members are Dinky, Ruby Pinch, and Rumble” Wait Rumble is a member seems legit so lets see two three unicorn and one pegasus seems legit “We are waiting for the others than we can introduce you, Oh AppleBloom go and get the crusaders speech” “Ah got it ready” Applebloom stated while I am too busy being confused “This was your surprise” Jero why could you not have told me this “Also I need to get back to Fluttershy” Wait no don’t leave dammit he is gone “I really hope that Pinkie did not find out about this she has yet to throw me a you know what” I really hope they take the hint because if I say the word I know Pinkie will some how jump in front of me “Oh a welcome to Ponyville pa-” I stuffed my hoof in Sweetie Belle’s mouth fast than anypony could blink I did not want to do that but I do not want to witness a Pinkie Pie party she can scare me a little I really do not want Pinkie to know she forgot to throw me a party “Please do not say that word” I begged still though I saw a pale purple filly a murine filly and a grayish colored colt walking to the clubhouse with similar color capes to the one I am wearing “Hey look the other’s” Scootaloo said in her normal loud tone I swear though I am still frustrated they brought me here against my will but still I guess it’s not so bad “Hey Scootaloo,Sweetie Belle, AppleBloom who is the colt?” Dinky asked bouncing right up to us I thought they would have told them about me “This is Nova” AppleBloom said “Yeah he is new to the crusader” Scootaloo once again shouted “And he is living with Twilight” Sweetie Belle said _______________________________________________________________________ After a day with the new crusaders I was just plain tired I know I am staying with Fluttershy and Jero for the next few day’s I gotta say I miss Twilight already I had arrived back to as Twilight called her my ‘foalsitter’ I die a little inside when she says that still though but still Fluttershy is a nice mare Still though I can not do that everyday with out ending up having a stroke all of that running and crap I can not do it everyday still it was fun and well still though they have so much energy and I found out the answer to my question Derpy is not called Derpy here she is called by her official name Ditzy Doo so now I know that I won’t even have to ask her what her name is and act like I do not know it crap I had walked through the front door of Fluttershy’s cottage to see nopony home this is odd enough “Where is everypony?” I thought to myself this is suspicious I do not even see Angel here waiting for a third round hmmm this is creepy for one it is kinda dark nothing too much I jumped up hitting the light switch with my horn and it hurt a little but nothing compared to when it got snagged on a towel “Hello is anypony home?” I shouted still nothing but the silence and darkness I was starting to get a little scared now I never get scared still the vast cold darkness was all through the house and the silence it was too quiet the only noise that could be heard now was the occasional crack of thunder the lightning would give some light only for a second though I do not like what is going on I do not see any of Fluttershy’s animals its like the place has been abandon but this morning when I was here it was so full of life and joy and now it is filled with darkness and fear The sounds of raindrops beating on the roof and ground outside is the only thing that sounded like movement it does not help when the floorboards creak a little from the slightest movements I could not contain myself much longer I felt like I was going to explode from the fear of it all I do not know what is going on but I need to find out and soon I was hoping that somepony would be home when I got back or even leave a note if they had to leave I would have never guessed that Fluttershy would be one to not leave a note if she had to go somewhere if it was important she would have sent somepony after me I am sure of it still I need to know what is going on and now I scampered started walking only to hear another crack of thunder that was the one that knocked out the power I then started running around the house shouting “Fluttershy? Jero? where are you?” I kept going running and running I finally realized it was a futile attempt to keep looking for them they are not here I then sat on the cold floor I kept hearing something in my head just going on over and over “Do not give up keep looking this is your dream world a place you have always wanted to go” I looked around for the source of the voice I kept turning my head left and right after a while I recognized the voice it was that of my grandmother she was somehow speaking to me or just somehow I can hear her voice telling me this still though I am truly scared I just sat on the floor scared the thunder and lightning I do not understand where they went its like they left me alone and I do not know if they will come back anytime soon what am I talking about yes they will be back soon they have to come back they just have to they can’t leave me alone.........can they “This is the world I have dreamed of living in and now they have left me on my own in a thunderstorm at least it is not a big crowded party” I have what is commonly known as agoraphobia in a nutshell it means I hate being in big crowds I guess I can try to come over it but it will be hard but I am sure I can do it with the help of my friends who are not here I sniffled but I can not cry, that will show a little bit of weakness and I will NOT show weakness from abandonment they are my friend they would not abandon me I should know this by now Now let's be rational maybe Jero and Fluttershy and all of her animals had to do something that caused them to leave the house and not tell me or leave a note I heard a loud crack but this was not thunder when I opened my eyes I saw the lights on with a big banner saying ‘Welcome To Ponyville’ I cocked an eyebrow at this when I looked around I only noticed Fluttershy,Rarity,Pinkie Pie,Rainbow Dash,AppleJack, a now full grown Jero and Twilight All there I did not know what to think at the time I smiled a little I think they had been planning this for a while and I am glad they did it is a nice gesture I guess Jero must have told them about my hatred of big crowds still it was nice some cake and more than enough sugary treats that could cause me to go into a coma this is going to be fun yet suck at the same time “Well this is a small welcoming party” Twilight said looking right at me “I know it is nothing too big but I heard you hate big crowd’s” hint hint I know Jero told her that or Celestia did _______________________________________________________________________ “Wow today was great a nice party almost eating myself into a coma” I let out a small laugh “ How does Pinkie Pie do that all the time I will never know” I just got lost in my own little world it was fun today was one of the best days of my life I will say that much “Come on Nova” Twilight said shouting for my she had gotten farther ahead than I expected still I am right today was a good day yet something feels like it is missing we had arrived at the library or as I call it home in a reasonable amount of time so for fun I pulled down a random book and just started reading until I fell asleep Author's Note I hope you all enjoy the new chapter the next one will be Nova's first letter to Princess Celestia Cut Content:Modeling Pajamas For Rarity....This Better Be Worth ItFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ____________________________________________________________________________ I stood behind a curtin while Rarity dressed me for the who knows how many times Twilight had spoken with Rarity and found Rarity was making some pajamas for colts but Rarity was not able to find any colts to model them for her that is when Twilight got the idea to volentier me to do it I got to say this sucks so far I have tried on SO many pairs and to add insult to injury they are hoofise pajamas I had tired on ones that had a celestia patteren on them and ones that had a luna patteren on here is a short list of what I have had to try on one of them had Just leave it here I have tried on about seventeen pairs of them the ones I had just tried on had bumblebees on them so far Twilight said her favorite pair where the ones with numbers on them I really hate this but thank Celestia this pair is the very last one and I have a feeling that Twilight will like these they have books on them I sighed as Rarity pulled the hood up but I REALLY hate that they are taking pictures Rarity gave me a shove I just glared at her Rarity gave me one more push “Go on darling” I groaned and went out from the curtin I heard Twilight squeal I was getting tired of doing this I was getting hot because of all the hoofsie pajamas and I know this seems like something a little kid would say but it is true we have been doing this for I think since seven in the morning and it is ten now so I can not stand this I am also happy this is the last pair I have to try on I really hope nopony else sees this “Oh my goodness Nova you look so cute” Twilight took another picture I feel like I am dying inside “Rarity may I please get a pair of these for him?” Rarity let out a giggle “Even better Twilight you can just have these” Rarity gave me a pat on the head “And thak you Nova for doing this” Rarity then levitated a lolliepop I in front of me as she had gotten that last pair of over insolated wool pajamas off my flank I grabbed the lollipop and just started to eat it I know that seems childish but still I think I have earned it Twilight laughed I looked up at them “Can I go now?” I asked Twilight just shook her head ____________________________________________________________________ Both Twilight and myself had arrived back at the library at around two in the afternoon Rarity was as so kind as to make us some lunch but that box Twilight is toting around with those freaking pajamas I swear if she makes me wear them I will jump out the first window I can reach Author's Note So everypony this was going to be a full chapter at around chapter 3 or 4 but it never made the cut so I hope you all enjoyed this little piece the new chapter should be up soon
Chapter 1: A Deal For A New LifeFriends,Family, Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I got up out of my bed; like everyday, same thing as always, nothing much to do in the morning; get up, brush my teeth, eat my morning meal. There is never really anything going on in the world, so excitement is hard to get nowadays, since my father passed away just about a week and a half ago. Ever since my mother abandoned us a couple of years ago, I decided to keep looking after him every hour of everyday, giving him what he needs; food, drinks, I even went out to the shop for him. My mother left when I was only thirteen-years-old, after that, I had decided to get a job at that age to pay our rent and other taxes. My life hasn’t been good in the past nine years, but it was bearable at least. Now I am on my own in my father’s home, with nothing to do. I went down the main stairwell after I got my average cheap clothing on and took a shower, brushed my teeth, done all that. Anyway, I went down the stairs to sit down in my only recliner in the house, switching on the television to watch the international news channel: Sky News. There was nothing interesting on the news. However, I just found out that there was a great tsunami in Japan after an apparent earthquake hit the coast. It was pretty shocking; It was sad, but I had more important things to do. I was just about to switch off the television when I began to notice a strange light cascading from the front windows into the main living area; it intrigued me. I work at a local office in the centre of town, I get paid minimum wage, but it is my job and I appreciate that they took me in after one of their previous staff got fired for stealing money. I was originally planning to switch off the television and then going to grab my pre-prepared briefcase for work, but after I noticed this odd light, I just had to check it out. I forgot about being on schedule to get to work, but being distracted is a pain in the ass. I left the front entrance; locking the door behind me. I began to wonder around the whole block to check on the source of the light, it may have been either a car, or just myself being crazy. I kept going around the block from what I remember was about three times; until I noticed a light emerging from the main alley in the street block. I stood there, staring at the light for approximately five seconds as I hesitated to move. Suddenly, the light went at a very fast speed towards my home. Oh God, what is it going to do? My house could blow up! I began to thought as I run after the paranormal light. I was running as fast as I ever could. As the light entered the front window of my now empty house, I was about twenty metres away. When I finally reached the front entrance; I immediately began to open it, dropping my keys several times in the process. Alas, as I open the door (almost breaking it in) I began to run into the main living area. As nothing was there, I was baffled at the site of my front room just the same without the lights on. After about five minutes of just standing in my main living area looking confused; I heard a noise (almost like a rustle) coming from my small dining area. What the hell was that... I thought to myself as I grabbed something from the my pocket, it was my dad’s old gun i kept with me. As I stayed close to the walls; gun in my grasp. As I began to hear was I presume were footsteps on the floorboard of the dining area, I began to panic. As I was about to literally shoot the gun at the source of footsteps, a figure emerged from the other entrance of the dining area. I was shocked at the magnificent sight. I blinked a few times confused at what I thought I saw. I placed the gun on a coffee table and turned around rubbing my forehead. “ This cannot be really happening Princess Celestia is made up… it make no flip’n sense , when I turn around I am not going to see a talking Alicorn in my hallway … one … two… three… ” opening my eyes I am face to muzzled with a white multicolored Alicorn aka Princess Celestia… I felt like fainting right there and then backing away slowly I reached for the gun, but it was lifted by itself …for some reason i felt like obwian was saying ‘Use the Force Luke’ …snapping out of my self induced meme. I watch the gun be taken apart by a golden force field holding it in the air. Now more scared than ever realizing I was going to brony hell for this. I prayed this was a dream I thought to myself “There is no need to be scared Damian i am not here to harm you” Celestia said in a calm gentle tone “And there is no such place as brony hell” She added i gave a nervous laugh as a way of saying i did not think there was even a place called that after the awkward laugh she kept smiling it calmed me down knowing that Celestia was not pissed or they're here to hurt me but what is she here for “Well if you are not here to hurt me then what are you here for Princess” I asked now calmer she took a deep breath i did not like where this was going i was back to pants shitting mode again i swear i think she is pulling a trollestia on me right now.....OH GOD DON’T LET HER GO MOLESTIA! “Damian i want to make a deal with you i know you never got to have a real childhood i have spoken to my faithful student and she agreed to adopt you so to speak you are welcome to come back to this world anytime you choose” Celestia said looking me right in the eyes i really wanted to do what Twilight did on the cutie mark chronicles episode but i did not want to seem stupid “Wait you're offering to take me to Equestria with you as a pony am i getting this right?” I asked in shock. “Yes i am you are wel-” she did not even get to finish before i interrupted her. “Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes please take me now!” I shouted bouncing like moron.....don’t judge me i know half of you would have done the same thing i mean come on. Celestia just laughed “Well then lets go.” She said after that there was a light it engulfed both of us then everything became peaceful,and had a serene calmness. When I awoke there was something off about me everything felt bigger and i felt smaller I looked down to see i had hooves not hands. Ok everypony i know i am making a new story big deal but i need a name should it be Nova or Dusk I think Nova
Chapter 2: Adjusting Chapter 2: Adjusting Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ When I awoke there was something off about me everything felt bigger and i felt smaller I looked down to see I had hooves not hands.I looked around the room to see I was in canterlot castle my jaw dropped at the amazing sight “Welcome to Canterlot Damian.” Celestia said “Oh wow I can’t wait to throw you a BIG welcome party” A pink mare said I knew who it was right when I saw her “There is going to be cake,candy,games like pin the tail on the pony” Pinkie said trailing off “Well thank you Pinkie Pie” I said looking at her shocked face....holy crap i was able to shut Pinkie Pie up QUICK SOMEPONY RECORD THIS MOMENT IN HISTORY “Princess if it is alright with you i would like to change my name to something else” “What would you like your new name to be Damian?” Celestia asked looking into my eyes just looking at her eye’s is calming to me “Well i have thought of a few names and i would like to be renamed Nova i don’t know why but it seems suiting to me” I stated trying to look serious.....I looked goofy as hell “It fits you well, Nova.” Celestia said “I think it is a good name welcome to Equestria Nova” A lavender mare said looking at me next thing I knew the whole main six were standing right beside her “Nice to meet you. My name is Twilight Sparkle.” “I know that you are Twilight Sparkle and that is Fluttershy,Rarity,AppleJack,Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie” I said with a smug grin “Wow. How did you know all their names, Nova?” Twilight asked surprised I let out a little laugh which turned into a full blown laugh “What’s so funny?” Rainbow asked “He knows about us Rainbow Dash it seems funny to him because well i do not know why he is laughing like that” Celestia explained “But if i may speak with him alone I would appreciate that” She said over my laughter i swear the wrong pony might think I am high They six of them nodded and left Celestia and I alone so we could talk in private after a few minutes of tension I ran up and hugged her this was a shock to Celestia at first but she returned the hug using her wings as a barrier so to speak next thing I knew I sobbing into her chest “I know sometimes it is a little too much to take in all at once” Celestia said rubbing my back but I was not crying out of sadness it was pure happiness “Thank you Princess you don’t know how much this means to me being able just to be a kid i was never able to do that thank you” I said finally calming down a little Celestia smiled. “I was happy to help you, Nova.” “Well lets go on and I don’t know what now?” I asked slightly confused as the main six walked back in “Oh ya i kinda forgot you were here my bad” “Well I think it is time to go home” Twilight said levitating me up from my previous sitting position “Wait we are going to PonyVille right now?” I asked looking confused “Oh but of course darling do you think Twilight still lives here” Rarity said with a giggle “But Nova there is one thing you should know you are two or three years younger than as you call them in your world the CMC” Celestia said “And they have their cutie marks” I was in shock I did not know it had been three years here I guess the one day here is a year on earth thing is not true TAKE THAT FANFICS “Well that sucks” “Well umm lets go if you're ready that is” Fluttershy said to me trying to hide behind her mane it was so cute I just about died from the cuteness. The main six left after a while and I was with Twilight.standing there like it was an awkward silence contest it kinda felt like one until Twilight decided to break the silence thank goodness. “Well Nova are you ready to go to your new home?” Twilight asked me I am not going to lie I am a little scared but I know that they can be trusted I just nodded. “Yes Twilight. I am ready to see my new home.” I said while still nodding like an idiot until Twilight stopped my nodding and was I glad my head was starting to hurt with that all of us started walking to the train station. ______________________________________________________________________________ All of us got on the train and i gotta say it was HUGE well it might just be that i was now the size of a young colt now and the age of one now but either way it was so cool I would have ran in there but i was caught in a blue magical grip I look behind myself to see Rarity holding me in her magic it scared the heck out of me when she levitated me. “Not so fast darling you can’t go running about like a hooligan its very uncouth” Rarity said.....how did I know that is what she was going to say Oh wait now i know that is what she says to EVERYTHING! Rarity laughed then set me down in a seat on the train car.”What’s so funny?” I asked looking right at Rarity “Wait what is that smell.....it smells GREAT!” “Oh its just the food that they serve on here” Fluttershy said while looking right at me.....I wonder am I my OC pony I made I know that I am a unicorn but still that food smelled freaking AMAZING I WANT SOME! “Ya it is they have so many different things it is super duper yummy” Pinkie said bouncing right next to me I have to say though the short time I have been here I have been enjoying my time. “Yes it is if you're hungry then we can get some food BUT we have to wait until the train starts” Twilight said talking to me like I am a child........Never mind I know I am a child now but still I died a little inside when she spoke to me like that. “Wait so can you even use magic?” Rainbow Dash asked in my opinion that was a dumb question because well I am a young colt so who knows? “I don’t know. I mean I am still young so who knows” I said, looking at her “But I can try” I then started channeling magic to my horn......all it did was spark well I guess I will have to learn it. “Keep trying when we get home Nova.I am sure you will at least be able to levitate something” Twilight said as the train started to move I then stretched my legs I got to say walking on all fours is not that hard. “Ok good the train is moving can I get some food now please?” I asked jumping out of my seat shaking my head. “Sure, go ahead Nova.” Twilight said. “Twi don’cha think he should have some kinda adult supervision ah mean he is a foal now” AppleJack asked It sounded more like she was stating something to me but shaddup. “I’ll go with him. Come on Nova, lets get you some food.” Twilight said as she started trotting it took me a minute to realize it when it finally hit me I ran trying to catch up to her boy even when she walks she is fast! “Hey wait for me” I said running after Twilight as she stopped walking. “Sorry Nova!” Twilight said, slowing down as I caught up to her once again SHE IS FAST JUST WALKING! “Its fine Twilight you are fast” Once again she is fast I think its where I am young and I have stubby legs and she is tall! “i’ll help you with your problem, Nova.” She said and lifted me onto her back with her magic I gotta say it took a lot not to fall off which I almost fell off more than once gotta love that magic. “Thanks Twilight but how can you walk faster than me IT MAKES NO SENSE” I half shouted that last part BUT WHO CARES BECAUSE I DON’T FOOL! But still in a manner it is nice to be able to be carried and well I am enjoying being young again I am starting to like this already! But come on you can’t say if you got this offer you would not take it if you say no than you are a dumbass! But the only thing that I wondered was am I going to have a freaking bed-time now.If so that will suck and it is going to suck badly OH PLEASE DON’T LET ME HAVE A BEDTIME IF SO THEN LIFE WILL SUCK onto pressing manners my stomach is growling like I guess a timberwolf I don’t know pony language that well pardon me all i know is anypony or somepony so shaddup. “Nova please do not yell and it is simple you are shorter then me” Twilight explained wow having her explain things is really dull I wonder if I could mess with her a little by just talking about advanced still that would be funny. “Sorry Twilight I am not some little foal.......I don’t want to hear it from you” I stated once again trying to sound serious but utterly failing instead i look dumb again who cares as long as Rarity does NOT make me model for her then we are fine.”Either way I am happy as long as Rarity does not make me model clothing for her and for that matter Hey look food finally” Twilight just sighed and rolled her eyes What I had a short attention span as a child don’t blame me. ______________________________________________________________________________ It has finally reached around 8:30 at night and I was finding it IMPOSSIBLE to keep my eye’s open I was stumbling around like a child but still this sucks I felt like I was going to fall asleep any second.Next thing I knew I was levitated into what felt like a bed I looked and saw it had curtains than when I looked down I saw the others laying in beds it was then I noticed these were the beds from that one episode......Sorry i can’t remember but who cares only thing is I was too tired to even keep my eyes open next thing i knew I was sleeping.
Chapter 3: Home,School Plans & Old FriendsFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I woke up to what felt like bouncing. Wait are we still on the train? Well, crap. It might be where I am being too lazy to open my eyes, who cares? All I know is sleep is good and being awake is bad. Uggg, Why am I even awake right now? Please somepony knock me out, I don’t care how. Just.....hit me in the head with a glass bottle or even a...that is all I can really think of. I talk to myself too much, these ponies might think I am crazy if they knew I was talking to myself. “Morning Nova.” Twilight greeted me seeing I had not opened my eyes yet I can’t help it ok? My eyes are sensitive to sunlight when I first wake up. “Nova are you going to open your eyes yet?” I wanted to answer, but I mean come on, I am thirsty. You know the feeling when you wake up, you are thirsty as hell! That is how I feel right now. I mean, I could go back to sleep OR I could reply to her in a timely fashion.”Nova are you alright?” “Huh? Yeah I am fine Twilight sorry about that. Just a little tired, that’s all.” I stated with a yawn which earned a giggle from Twilight. “What? It’s not funny and where are we anyway?” I finally decided to open my eyes. I never got to look at my eye color, I just realized that “Hey Twilight, what color are my eyes?” “They are lavender like mine. What, didn’t you know that?” Twilight said to me when I saw a tree I knew our location, it was the library. YES! I GET TO SEE IT, FINALLY....sorry when I get excited, I freaking yell. “Well we are here. The Princess only made one rule though.” “Wait, she did? Aww crap, what is it?” I asked hoping it was not a one screw up and you're gone rule, but either way I could not cause that much trouble, could I? Meh, who knows. It is me and I was always a good kid, so that is a big nope. “Princess Celestia said the one rule is she wants you to learn about the magic of friendship with me and send her reports.” Twilight said ruffling my mane as she sat my lazy flank on the couch. I gotta say, this place has a nice warm homey feeling to it. Homey, is that even a word? I gotta say even if it is not, I will use it. If you don’t like it, then GET OVER IT! But I mean, sending friendship reports can’t be all that bad. “Well yes, I think I can do that. It doesn’t sound all that bad, but where am i even going to meet ponies my current age?” I wondered jumping off the couch. Wait I wonder where Spike is....WAIT IS SPIKE REAL!? Well I mean, the Princesses and the main six and the CMC are real, so I guess he would be real. “Hey Twilight where is Spike at?” Oh crap, I hope it is not like one of those fics and he’s dead. Please let him be alive. “If you would have listened to me, the one rule is friendship reports AND she wants you to attend Ponyville Elementary to meet foals your current age.” Twilight stated staring at me while I gave out a sheepish laugh. Hahaha, I mean come on, you can’t say you wouldn’t have done the same. Still...WAIT A SECOND, SCHOOL!? I ALREADY WENT TO SCHOOL! “Twilight, do I really need to attend school!? I already went to school and payed my dues, so to speak.” I am still in shock, BUT REALLY!? SCHOOL!? COME ON! Wait a second, how old am I? Anyway, somepony tell me that how old are the CMC and I can guess my age from there. Who cares anyway. “Are you sure about that Twilight? I mean, I hated school where I came from. People are jerks, well...there was one person who was not a jerk.” I miss him. His parents never said where he went, only that he left town. “Well, the Princess did order it, well asked, but still yes. Just please do it.” Twilight then nuzzled me. Wait a second, she’s talking to me like I’m her child. I mean sure, the talking to me like a child part sucks, but she’s treating me like her own. Nothing can make this any better. “So Nova did you keep practicing magic?” “Fine, when do I start second grade? But I won’t like it!” I asked I heard Twilight stifling a giggle. What does she find so funny? Does she find it funny? Let me guess, where I am obligated to go to school “What is so funny?” “Well you won’t be in second grade.” Twilight giggled again WHAT IS SHE FINDING SO FUNNY?!? “Well, you will be starting kindergarten.” I felt a pit in my stomach. I mean, why kindergarten!? What wrong have I done to deserve that? Wait, so then I must be five. Oh lordy why me. Oh and I bet my last dollar that the Cutie Mark Crusaders are eight. Meh, who cares.....alright I kinda care. “K-k-k-kindergarten!? You have got to be kidding me Twilight! Please say this is a sick joke.” I wanted to scream. I wanted to punch a wall! I made this OC to be the child of Twilight and his talent is magic in a way, but I don’t know in what way. I hope it is magic, but then again I want my talent to be different. Who knows, it might be it might not be, but back to the subject at hoof. Ha I’m funny. “I mean, come on. Kindergarten? That is going to suck.” “No. Sorry Nova, I am not joking. I know you are not looking forward to it, but here kindergarten only last half a day. So you can be there until twelve or four, your choice.” Twilight was not joking. What have I gotten myself into? Wait, I just realized something. If Twilight adopted me, well while I am here, she is my ‘mother’. Then would that make Shining Armor my uncle so to speak. I want to be lazy right now. ______________________________________________________________________________ I was in the middle of a little magic practice that Twilight is making me do. It is hard but I did it, I levitated a book. It was hard I and I wanted to faint, it took the breath out of me. I only got the thing an inch off the ground but still it was hard. I dropped the book with a thud. Oh crap, I dropped a book, Twilight is gonna be pissed. “Good job Nova. You got that book a inch in that air, that is pretty good.” Twilight once again said to me like I am a child. You know back when at home on Earth, if someone did that to me I would flip them the bird but I do not have fingers so I can’t do that but still I wonder where Spike is “Hey Twilight where is Spi-” I was interrupted by a belch making me jump then a little girl screamed I mean you have heard a little girls scream but this was just wow it sounded like something from a hor- “Nova are you alright that was just Spike when he burps most of the time then it is a letter from the Princess” Twilight explained to me I know I am sounding like a broken record but she was speaking to me like I am a child I gotta say it is getting annoying “Yes I know that and the way he sends letters is by breathing fire on them and I did not scream like a little girl that was....uhhh uhhh uuhhh HEY LOOK A DISTRACTION!” I pointed my hoof in a random direction shockingly enough Twilight looked the way I pointed and I ran before being levitated wow that sucked all I know is I was laughing why the hell am I laughing “Lets see all the letter is saying is that the Princess wants Nova to get a check up and then she wants him to start school” Said by the cubby baby dragon Yeah thats right Spike I am talking about you come at me bro pfft thats what I thought punk “Thank you Spike now back to you Nova I know you don’t want to start school again but you have to alright” Twilight said to ME once again I am getting a little annoyed with her treating me like a child I guess I have to get used to it as I was saying thou- WAIT DOCTOR?!? “Ummm Twilight please say the doctor thing was a joke I kinda hate doctors” I sounded like Fluttershy the way I was talking but STILL I HATE DOCTORS nothing against them but the whole getting vaccinations that is what makes it worse just the idea for getting a needle put in me its not that I doctors just the thought of getting blood work done is what scares me or just having a needle stuck in my arm I HATE NEEDLES THEY MAKE ME CRY......crap I just admitted that who cares its true “Nope sorry Nova but we need to make sure you are healthy” Twilight said what wrong have I done sweet celestia what wrong have I done deserve this punishment nothing thats what either way it seems they hate me I mean come on a needle think about it “Nova you their snap out of it” Twilight said waving a hoof in my face I hate it when people did that “Yes I am fine Twilight don’t worry just thinking to myself” I was really bored I love libraries but living in one is going to bore the crap out of me OH MAN THIS SUCKS I wonder if any of my friends would believe where I am right now I know a certain person who would get diabetes and die from Fluttershy’s cuteness one of my best friends Jero or if he came here I guess Shadow Breeze. “Hey Nova I am making sandwiches for lunch is that alright with you?” Twilight asked looking at me I really really am not looking forward to starting kindergarten either way a sandwich sounds GOOD I haven’t eaten since the train ride so food sounds good right now “Ya sandwiches sound good” I know I know it seems like I am acting like a child but shaddup. I wonder if Cheerilee is going to be my teacher if so than it sounds alright after a few seconds there was a knock at the door ______________________________________________________________________________ When I walked down stairs I saw a butter yellow pegasus yummm butter....Sorry sorry I got distracted But I saw Fluttershy and a shaded-grey pegasus my jaw ended up slamming on the floor when I saw him. “Nova don’t stare its ju-” I interrupted Twilight I know big deal I interrupted her get over it fool “No freaking way, Jero!?” I squeaked out Okay everypony I hope you like the chapter now if you are wondering who Jero is he is from Living Between Worlds this is not a crossover fic with them. You may also know him as Shadow Breeze from DRDCT. I just felt like throwing him in here he is one of my friends and proof-read the chapter and wow this Authors Note is a big one but yes I hope you are liking the story so far I will try and have a new chapter up today or tomorrow This is Jero aka Shadow Breeze
Chapter 4: Messing With Friends And Concussions Chapter 4: Messing With Friends And Concussions Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ “No freaking way! Jero!?” I squeaked out ______________________________________________________________________________ I stood there, mouth agape, looking at the shaded-grey pegasus. I just could not take my eyes off him. Jero’s parents said he left town, but they never, and I mean NEVER, said this is where he was at. I was swaying side to side like a drunk person, or in this case, a drunk pony. I felt like I was going to faint, but instead I slammed my head on the coffee table. The impact freaking hurt so much that I wanted to throw up from the pain. I already had a massive migraine, oh sweet celestia, make the pain stop. I felt tears forming in my eyes, not from the shock, but from the pain. “Oh my goodness, are you ok Nova?” Fluttershy asked, rushing to my side. I pushed her away. I was not trying to be very rude, but I did not want to look weak. I mean come on, just because I slammed my head on a table. I stood up a little light headed from the impact of skull on table. I really wanted some help, but NO, I could not show any sign of weakness, no matter what be it- Next thing I knew I was being lifted up in the air. “Woah, hey, put me down!” I said, looking to see the shaded-grey pegasus that made me go into shock like that. It was Jero, but why is he his OC Shadow Breeze, please explain that logic to me! Aww crap, I already know what is going to happen in a few seconds Jero is goi- “GAH ...Jero loosen...up....please...crushing....my.....lungs” I could not breath worth anything in his iron grasp. “Oh I am so sorry, you poor little thing and how did you know my name?” Jero asked me now HE is speaking to me like a child. Wait, does he even know who I am.....If not, then I understand but if so, then I am gonna kick his flank to Canterlot and back. “You are just the cutest little thing.” once again, kick his flank to Canterlot and back. “Jero, it’s me Damian, remember?” I asked him in hopes that he would not give me another iron death grip hug. Please oh please, don’t let him do it. “Please Jero, do not pull me into another death hug.” I was practically begging so he would not pull me into another hug....boy, was I wrong. I was pulled into another hug. “Oh my goodness, Damian, look at how cute you are!” Jero said, hugging me. I could not breath, and I did not think that my blue coat could get any bluer. I was wrong again. I have the tendency to be wrong, now help me please, Fluttershy, use the stare on him. “Help me please!” I squeaked out. “Fluttershy, Twilight somepony, help me please!” I was now flailing my hooves and pushing at him trying to get away from him, he is strong as heck. I would have never expected it “Jero please I am begging you loosen up.” “Oh, sorry about that.” Jero said with a blush releasing me. FREEDOM AT LEAST FROM HIS DEATH GRIP. Still though, he is a good friend. He finally put me on the floor, thank Celestia. I thought he would crush me to death. CURSE MY TINY SIZE! “Oh umm, Jero he changed his name to Nova when he got here.” Fluttershy squeaked out, shying away behind her mane.......d’awww how cute. “But can you call him that....If you want to that is.” “Well, sounds fair enough Nova...But why are you a small foal?” Jero asked me. Come on man, I know I am that of a child but who cares. “If I may interject Jero; The princess made a deal with him. Seeing as he never got to have a real childhood, Princess Celestia made a deal to let him have the childhood he never had. So your friend took the deal and chose to be renamed Nova.” Twilight explained while I tried to hide in a pillow. I felt ashamed for some reason don’t know why but I felt ashamed . “Yup, all of that is very true.” I stated, almost fainting from the tension again. Please somepony help me, I feel like I will pass out. “Hey Twili-” everything went black ______________________________________________________________________________ I woke up to the sound of voices. They were muffled through the door, but still they were voices. Then I heard my name. What are they talking about? Is it bad? Or is it good? What could be that important? Maybe if I go out there and see what all the buzz is about, or I could keep my lazy flank on this bed.....that is what I will do. Wait if they have something to say about me, then they can say it to my face, come at me bro! Ya that’s what I thought. “Here, I am going to check on him.” I think it was Twilight, but still everything is still fuzzy where I just woke up. My head is still hurting where I slammed it on that table. I put my hoof on my head. I felt some gauze, so I guess they got a doctor over here, or did Fluttershy do this? I hope this headache stops soon. A second later, Twilight walked inside the room “Hey Nova, are you awake?” “Huh yeah, I'm awake. Everything is just a little fuzzy, that’s all.” I said with a cough. Crap, that felt like a knife scraping on my rib cage. I shuddered when I thought of a story that scares me a little. “Hey Twilight, who bandaged my head?” Wait, what if Doctor Whooves is a real doctor? OH and what if Colgate is a dentist.......that last one would suck. “Oh, that was Fluttershy. Don’t worry, she said you just need some rest, that is about it. Oh, and Jero had some help, he told me everything.” Twilight stated with a warm smile. It felt like she was hugging me with a smile. I know it sounds cheesy but it is true. I mean, in my current state, with a head injury; it was from shock, well that and collision, with a table and let me say, it hurt like hell. I then tried getting up, only to be pushed back down. I looked and saw Twilight holding me down, shaking her head. “No Nova, you need to stay in bed.” But what she did not know is I had to piss something fierce. “Umm Twilight, I really need to use the bathroom, so please MOVE MARE, I NEED TO PISS!!” I shouted at the top of my lungs, taking off for the bathroom like my life depended on it; My bladder did. After what felt like years I walked out of the bathroom to see Twilight giving me a disappointed look. “What? I can’t help it if I needed to use the bathroom, sorry.” She still kept giving me that look. Sorry I had to use the restroom; maybe it was the way I said it...who knows? “You know, I read a medical book and it said that with a head injury you should not run like that, it’s dangerous.” Once again Twilight was lecturing me why does she keep doing that she acts like I do not know this stuff and I know this stuff so she needs to quit scolding me “Hey Twilight can you stop doing that scolding me I know this stuff” I am trying to be nice I really need a drink well not alcohol I was never really a big drinker “Hey Twilight can I have a soda?” I looked at the clock its like nine at night how long was I out for? I must have hit my head REALLY hard. “Sure thing dinner is still waiting at the table seeing as you slept through it Fluttershy and Jero are still here” Twilight said Oh I just got an evil idea *InsertEvilLaughHere* I remember when I first met Jero he face planted into a flag pole so I would tease him every now and then and call him pole.Both me and Twilight trotted down stairs when i saw it the best scene ever I NEED TO MESS WITH HIM NOW WHILE I HAVE THE CHANCE “Hey there Pole, what’s up? Well besides the little kissing session with Fluttershy there.” I stated with a evil grin seeing a red blush growing on his face. I did think a grey pony could blush but one can and now I know “Hey Jero, maybe I should tell Fluttershy about the little fanfic you wrote Li-” I was cut off with his hoof in my mouth oh this was too rich “Suuuuuusssshhhhhh” Jero hissed out at me his hoof STILL in my mouth and i was laughing my blank flank off.......DAMMIT I INSULTED MYSELF who cares worth it “Do not tell her please” His eyes looked like he was begging CRAP NOW I DON’T WANT TO TELL HER. “Umm Jero what is he talking about?” Fluttershy ask OH YES BEST THING EVER HE CAN’T SAY NO TO HER this is epic! What is he trying to do now? OH CRAP, HE IS USING THE STARE! On me! Crap, my body then stood there stunned. Damn, he is good. I don’t want to find out how good Fluttershy is at the stare “Nothing, it was nothing at all. Just him being silly. That is all, I swear.” Jero said a little too fast hehehe I am enjoying this me thinks Fluttershy is now getting suspicious anything else that happens is just icing on the cake.......No no Pinkie Pie I thought she would pop out of nowhere at the mention of cake “Oh alright if it is a secret then you don’t have to tell if you don’t want to” Fluttershy said being adorable still no need to use the stare on me I still can’t move “Who said there was cake I heard cake” Pinkie Pie stated jumping out of a plant behind both Jero and Fluttershy I wonder what took her so long all I know is they both scream like little girls....I know I did it once BUT COME ON GIVE ME A BREAK still wonder what took her so long HOW CAN SHE DO THAT.....What the is that a cupcake......NO NO PLEASE DON’T TELL ME CUPCAKES IS REAL “Oh and Nova I need some help baking some cupcakes tomorrow” NOOO I DON’T WANT TO DIE “Alright I guess I can help” WHY THE HELL DID I SAY THAT!? I am going to die tomorrow I just know it
Chapter 5:Baking,Baths,And Horn SnagsFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ I started walking with Pinkie Pie while she bounced and made our way to Sugar Cube Corner Which I was able to see about halfway there. The sight of it made me HUNGRY. Still, I’ve always had a thing for baking... I don’t know why but I have always loved trying new things, new recipes, just mixing up whatever ingredient I thought could go well together. I could even make my grandmothers brownies, may her soul rest in peace. When we arrived I was zipped into the kitchen and boy did that make a dizzy... WAIT is Derpy’s name Ditzy Doo here or is it Derpy Hooves...? Meh, I will ask later on or find out. “Hey Nova, can you taste a cupcake for me?” Pinkie asked. Aww crap, I had a feeling I was going to die. This is just how that Cupcake fic started. Welp either way it’s a free cupcake. I took the cupcake and started munching on it, and I gotta say it was freaking good. “Wow Pinkie, that was good! Well, it was better than I thought it would be.” I said hoping it didn't insult her or make her feel sad or something along the lines as any possible feeling that could bring her ‘other’ side out... but still she is an amazing baker “So when do we get started with the baking and whatnot?” ‘Whatnot’? God, I sound like my grandfather! “Oh, we can start right now but first I need...” Pinkie inhaled deeply... This gonna be good “I need some Eggsflourcinnamonbutterandmilkohohohandvanillaextract. Oh! Just talking about cupcakes makes me feel so hyper! Ijustwanttoeatawholetrayrightnowjustthinkingaboutit!” Holy crap, that was just... Wow... but I still caught all of what she said. I went to the fridge, which was not that hard to notice, I took a few eggs out and the butter. I looked around and found the flour on top of the shelves. I grabbed one and placed it on the table next to the butter and the eggs. On my last sweep of the room, I saw the spice rack. I quickly read over the named until I found cinnamon... which was one of the emptiest of the bunch. I finally placed the last piece of the cupcake kit on the table. Baking cupcakes with Pinkie Pie... This. Is. Awesome “Hey Pinkie, you going to sing your cupcake song?” I asked, but by the way Pinkie’s eyes light up, I already knew the answer. Best part was that she was happy and that’s all I cared about. After a second Pinkie pulled me up into one of the biggest hugs imaginable, I could not help but to laugh and hug her back. She is such a sweet and kind mare... I wonder if I could somehow get into Celestia’s school...Meh I will ask or find out later as soon as I can use magic without wanting to pass out when i’m done ________________________________________________________________________________ After an eventful hour, or maybe five since I think I lost track after a while, I had somehow gotten the cupcake batter on my mane! And let me tell you, once it’s in there it is damnwell hard to get it out. I kept trying to pass my hoof through my mane trying to get some of it out only to hear Pinkie shout “Hey Nova, I got you a bath ready!” I just jumped when she suddenly popped up behind me and picked me up, carrying me to the bathroom. Once she opened the door, she launched me out of her hooves and into the tub... It was a long tossing distance, and even harder to do when you’re throwing something that’s about your same weight and did not stop squirming. “Uhh thanks Pinkie, but I think I can take care of it from here.” I said to Pinkie. She gave me a nod and walked out of the bathroom.after a little bit of relaxing while the batter melted off I felt as if something was gnawing at my leg, when I lifted it up there he was, none other than Gummy. I dropped him out of the tub so I could finish up. Is it just me or does the shampoo smell like cotton candy? That might belong to Pinkie... I had finally finished up in the bath. Turning the valves and jumping out, I noticed Pinkie placed a towel at my reach so I wouldn't have to walk too far... only for it to fall over my body and making me look like an orange ghost. When I took that towel off, it got it snagged on my horn. I kept trying to pull it off, but much to my dismay I could not get it off. There was only one thing left that I could do. “Help! For the love of Celestia, get this demonic piece of cloth off of my head!” I shouted only to be pulled up by the towel. My eyes widened from the pain. I looked and saw it was Pinkie pulling on the towel “Pinkie, stahp! It hurts!” I squeaked out hearing a dramatic gasp, I looked again and saw that it was was Rarity. I saw her horn glow as I was being placed on the ground and the towel being gently levitated off... Finally. “Oh darling, this is not good!” Rarity said inspecting my horn. She had me a little scared the way she said that and the expression on her face while she looked at my horn “Well, Nova, don’t you worry.” I hope she does not say Auntie Rarity “No need to worry Nova, Auntie Rarity will get that horn fixed up!” But... But... That was a video... IT’S NOT CANON! “Oh,oh,oh,oh Rarity how long will that take I want to throw Nova his Welcome To Ponyville Party soon” Pinkie chirped I would have glared at her but Rarity was too busy levitating me on her back I guess she is taking me to a doctor or something
Chapter 6:Aichmophobia,Belonephobia Or Agoraphobia Chapter 6:Aichmophobia,Belonephobia Or Agoraphobia Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ I had finally arrived back at the library with Rarity in tow. I had a fun day, well three hours cooking with Pinkie Pie, she even let me keep half of them it took a second for Twilight to even notice both Rarity and myself, Twilight took the box of cupcakes and levitated them into the kitchen out of my reach and Spike’s “Well it seems that somepony had a good time” Twilight said All I could do was nod in response after a second of me standing their Twilight cocked an eyebrow at me “Nova can you go upstairs to your bedroom?” Twilight asked me and I went up to my bedroom “Oh Twilight when Nova was at Pinkie Pie’s he had gotten batter on his coat and took a bath but that’s not the worst part. When he got out a towel got stuck on his horn” Rarity said dramatically but unbeknownst to them I was hiding on the stairwell listening to them both “That poor darling” “Well he does have a doctor’s appointment today so they can look at it” Twilight laughed. “Oh and his physicians are Jero and his nurse is Fluttershy, so I am sure they can handle him” No freaking way they work at a doctor’s office WAIT I HAVE TO GO THERE TODAY “Well that is great seeing as he already knows Jero” Rarity giggled “But I have a feeling they will have a hard time seeing, because when I was looking at his horn he would not stop backing away” “That’s not true!” I shouted at the top of my lungs.Oh crap I blew my cover, all I know is that both Twilight and Rarity are looking at me now but not so much looking, but glaring more or less. “What I like to know what is said about me, sorry” I have the feeling that Twilight is going to lecture me about how wrong it is to eavesdrop or something like that....No nothing just that infamous glare it does not affect me what so ever “Nova its rude to eavesdrop you know that right?” Twilight said. I CALLED IT YEAH SON! “She is right Nova” Rarity stated If she says it my mind will be lost “It’s very uncouth”Oh wow how could anypony have guessed that Rarity would say that once again, she says that about EVERY LITTLE THING....? “What are you some kind of hooligan?” Okay now it’s time for me to throw my two cents in this “Whoa now let's slow this down, I have some trust issues so I like to know what is said about me” I stated a little mad that they were both teaming up on me. I know it was messed up that I was spying on them but still. “Well Nova you get to see your new physician today as it is we have about an hour” Oh goodie, Twilight reminding me about seeing a doctor as long as there is no shots involved I will be fine. “Also Nova you have to get a shot” DAMMIT IT’S LIKE SHE IS READING MY MIND I HATE NEEDLES. “Oh what a fun time this will be, I’m getting a shot” I think they were able to sense the sarcasm in that sentence meh if they get pissed then it was worth it on so many levels. Oh no Rarity is giving me a glare and I do not like it I think it’s a rare-glare “Nova you do not need to take that tone darling” Rarity keeps calling me darling why I will never understand “Well come on Nova lets go see the pediatrician” Wait did Twilight really say pediatrician? Sweet Celestia why you know what? Nopony gives a crap. ________________________________________________________________________________ we finally made it to the doctor’s office it was a little too colorful in my opinion but still it had a nice feeling to it. But I and Twilight are playing the oldest game in history the waiting game; que the boring music oh wait a minute what is it playing? It sounds more like elevator music give or take still I could not help but hum along with the music....wow it’s been half an hour and we are STILL! In the waiting room the smell of anesthetics and cleaning supplies. Woohoo! “Nova Sparkle” Wait a second first of all is that Nurse Redheart and for that matter did I really get Twilight’s last name? “Nova Sparkle you can come back now” So yes that is Redheart and yes I did get Twilight’s last name well isn’t this a bag of joy. With that both Twilight and I were lead to a colorful room and just sat there waiting for a doctor once again. We pla- Wait is that Jero and Fluttershy what are they doing here? I think they are here to hold me down while that accursed needle penetrates my flesh. There are two things I hate one being needles and two people who act like they are better than me. “Hi Nova me and Jero are going to be your doctors well he is your doctor I am just the nurse” Fluttershy as a nurse I could see it even if I was not here “Well he is a pediatrician really” Twilight said looking right at me Damn it why a pediatrician? I know I know a young colt and all that, still though looking at Jero holding up that medical chart like I have been here before which in truth I have not. “Well Da-Nova let’s check your weight first then we can get started” Jero said. At least he is not speaking to me like I ‘am child then I would have to I dunno I guess the whole kick his flank to Canterlot and back threat seems old now but I guess I can use it one more time. Well either way this scale looks oddly enough like one from earth “Wow you are forty seven pounds” Wow Jero just wow I know I have always been a scrawny little bean pole but I can hold my own in a fight. “Nova I will be right back I need to use the restroom” Twilight said as she trotted out of the room leaving me, Jero and Fluttershy all I can say is these bed tabley things are cold yet comfortable at the same time. “Okay now I need you to breathe in and breathe out” Fluttershy squeaked out. Which I know the drill by now so I did as she asked “Good everything seems to be in order their” Fluttershy as a nurse is just the most adorable thing ever...Why does Jero have three needles? Aww crap. “Okay now just ho-”Jero was cut off by how fast I ran out of that room and let me tell you it left a blue puff of smoke behind “Why did I have a feeling he would do that” Jero deadpanned “Oh my, is he alright?” Fluttershy asked seeing Jero with a deadpanned expression as Twilight walked in the room “Oh good did you give him the shots?” Twilight asked “Well no he ran off right when he saw the needles” Jero stated when Twilight hummed “What is it Twilight?” “Oh nothing but I may or may not have used a tracking spell on him” Twilight giggled “He is not far from us” “Umm how do you know that” Fluttershy asked “A simple tracking spell that’s all it took” Twilight said ________________________________________________________________________________ I had finally gotten what felt like a far enough distance away from Twilight, Jero and Fluttershy or so I thought I heard.“Found him” I heard Twilight shout. After that I took off in a gallop I just hate needles, but after a good half hour of running I was running out of breath, but when I tripped I knew it was all over, I was going to get a needle stuck in my flank all hope is lost. “Got him” Fluttershy said as she picked me up now hovering back to the room. I give up they can do what they want, when we finally arrived at the room which would help me meet my demise, Fluttershy sat me down on said examination table “Here I will hold him down” Twilight said as her magic held me down. I was hyperventilating from the fear of a needle about to stab into my flesh, I squeaked waiting for the impact. “There and done” I heard Jero say Wait did he really just say done? I despise needles they need to die....Huh that sounded funnier in my head but still that was fast, I smell something fishy going on, come on everypony how much you do want to bet that I will end up getting sick from this. “There Nova that did not hurt at all did it?” Fluttershy said sweetly to me. But yes it did in fact hurt thank you for reminding me. “Yes in fact it hurt something fierce” I stated rubbing my flank.only to hear a giggle “What's so funny?” I was hoping somepony else was laughing “It was not that bad Nova” Twilight said between giggles seriously its not funny it hurt but still hopefully we can leave this place of torture sooner or later I hope for NOW!

Chapter 8:Princess Who!? And The Crystal What!?Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I had been in Equestria for quite some time now and I must say... It’s been fun. I still have to deal with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon everyday so there are some downsides to it, but other than that everything is perfect. In the middle of class today Cheerilee received a letter from Twilight telling me to meet Jero at Fluttershy’s cottage after school. Still, the walk there is long and I usually tire myself out halfway there. “Why does Fluttershy have to live SO far away?” I thought out loud... Still, it’s nice to have a friend I know from home here in Equestria. Someone who actually know my human side other than just my pony side. “I hope my old boss enjoys the ‘gift’ I sent him...” Heh, a fruit bouquet... with a dead rat in the center, with a note in it’s mouth saying “I hope the smell stays here longer than I did, I quit.”. It was a douche move on my behalf... Heh... I feel nostalgic. I haven’t been back home in months, I hope everybody I know is well. I should go back and visit them soon...ish or whenever I feel like it, but at least I mastered levitation. “Hey, blank flank, what are you doing here?” Oh come on! I really have to pass Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon at this time! I tried to keep walking and ignore them but they kept throwing insults my way so it was kind of hard to ignore. I kept walking, yet they followed me, now I’m getting angry... “WHAT?” I shouted looking at the two “What could you need!” I started walking to them now “I am getting really annoyed with you both now either leave me be or I swear I’m going to make you pay for whatever time you’re making me waste!” I am not kidding, I will find a way to have them... I dunno beat up or something? Still, though I am going to tell them one more thing “I am not or will ever be one of the ponies you can bully and get away with it!” I got muzzle to muzzle with them “Keep it up and you’ll have to deal with an angry me, and trust me when I say I can be violent...” I think that scared them, when I finished that sentence they looked at each other not knowing what to do. Diamond Tiara opened her mouth but stopped herself when I turned my gaze her way. They went of running... I continued making my way to Fluttershy’s, I love how she is scared of the Everfree yet she decides to live so close to it. I let out a small laugh, it’s kinda funny when you think about it “Hmm, I wonder what Jero wants to show me.” I thought out loud as I continued trotting. I wonder, if I went back to earth still looking like a pony what people would freak out and if they would accept... well, a talking pony? If I’m right they would most likely take me to some crazy government facility and experiment on me, oh how much fun that would be! Anyway, while walking I felt something hit my muzzle and it didn't get any better when I looked up I saw a royal guard. Weird, he wore a purple armor... where have I seen this before? “Aww crap, what did I do?” I thought out loud. I put my hooves behind my back “I know the drill...” I sighed, “I have the right to remain silent, anything I say can and will be held against me in the court of law” I hope I remember this correctly, “I have the right to attorney if I can not afford one one will be presented for me” The guard just lifted his eyebrow at me. “Are you alright, kid?” He asked me letting out a laugh “I’m Shining Armor, big brother of Twilight Sparkle.” I stood up with a deadpanned expression, I knew I had recognized him but I couldn’t put my hoof on it. Well now I know why he looked familiar! “Oh yeah! Twilight talks about you... a lot.” I said with a chuckle, “I’m Nova by the way.” I held my hoof out which he shook somehow... I am not going to question the how, but he did alright.Still though, he seems like a nice pony. I am sure he does not get anything like Twilight does or at least I hope not. “So where are you headed kiddo?” Great, now Shining Armor is speaking to me like a child. Gee thanks. I love being sarcastic, still I kept a smile on and tried not to levitate him and throw him. “I was just headed to Fluttershy’s cottage to meet my friend Jero up there,” I said as I tried to start trotting, only to be stopped I looked and noticed I was being levitated; I do not like where this is going, “What are you doing?” “I am going to take you to Fluttershy’s.” Shining smiled at me as he placed me on his back. I am happy now, I do not have to walk anymore, I was running out of breath. He is pretty nice I will say. “Thank you, Shining Armor.” I said and started going into deep thought. Thinking about what it would have been like if I choose not to come here and stayed at home would anything else happen? Would I move up the ladder? Would I still be in a cubicle? Or would I be in prison for killing my boss? Either way I wonder what would have happened if I stayed home. We had finally arrived at Fluttershy’s house, I thanked Shining Armor for carrying me here. The whole walk here we shared stories. I told him about some of the things that happened while I had been here and Shining Armor told me some very embarrassing things about Twilight. I walked into Fluttershy’s house, seeing Jero putting a basket on the table, I cleared my throat to get his attention “Hello Nova” Jero looked at a clock “Wow, you got here faster than I expected” I let out a laugh at this. He thinks I would be late, well I would have been if not for Shining Armor “Dang Jero that is hurtful. You think the worst of me don’t you?” I puffed out my lower lip trying to give a pair of puppy dog eyes, I love screwing with Jero. His eyes widened in panic. “N-no no I don’t think the worst of you” I am one evil little colt “Trust me, I just thought, you know, with the long path from the school it would take you a bit longer than normal.” At this point I was on the floor laughing. I love messing with people or ponies. “Dang Jero, I was just kidding” I said in between laughs. Once again I am a evil little colt, still making ponies all panicky is mean, even for me. Especially when I mess with Fluttershy or Jero. That is wrong, but funny on so many levels. Its kinda sad I know, messing with your friends is mean and cruel but when you get a chance you HAVE to take it. Jero was not amused by my antics but come on, if you were in my position being stuck in a crappy kindergarten class, I think you would have done the same thing. I need a way to entertain myself when I am not stuck in class or stuck with the crusaders but I must say they are all nice, annoying at times, but otherwise they are very well behaved and not annoying at all. I mean they are kids so of course they would be hyperactive at that age, but look at me I am not that hyper am I? No, I am not. I just enjoy screwing with my friends, but who doesn’t? Still though I gotta say Jero looks pissed. “What is wrong with you!?” Oh crap, Jero is mad. You don’t want to make him angry, you would not like him when he is angry. I mean it, when he is mad you better run for the hills and not look back. Wait, what is he raising his hoof for? “Why would you do something like that?” Oh good he is calm. I thought he was going to strike me, I was a little scared, at that point I did flinch. I think that is what made him soften up a little. Still though, I am wondering what the point of the basket is for. “Hey Jero what is the basket for?” I asked looking up at him, man that feels weird looking up at your friends. I don’t understand why I was turned into a five year old, but either way it is good most of the time. “Well I thought we could just catch up a little with a lunch” Jero just smiled at me, grabbing the basket and trotting to the door. I don’t know why but I thought of a joke. “That and Twilight’s brother is over. So she asked me to keep an eye on you.” How could I have guessed? Well I guess the best person to foalsit me is somepony who knows me so well. “Oh Jero I thought of something funny wanna hear?” I asked, Jero nodded “So now a pole is dating a tree” I burst out laughing at my own joke but come on that was funny. I love teasing him about that but still, I need to give him a break every once and a while but not too much. ________________________________________________________________________________ The whole walk to the place that Jero wanted me to follow him to I could not stop thinking about both Ruby Pinch and Dinky. They are really nice fillies and well, I don’t know, they both have good qualities along with being really nice. I met both Berry Punch and Ditzy Doo, they were really nice to me. I was zoned out into my own little world, not paying attention to anything. Not even the blush growing on my face from thinking about them. “You OK, Nova? You’ve been quiet the whole time we were walking. Also, why is your face all red?” Jero asked breaking the silence “Huh? Oh yeah, I’m fine. Just thinking that’s all” Crap! Why do I keep thinking... Who cares!? I mean come on, if not for thinking you would not be hearing things. All these ponies can’t hear me say like this: Jero I threw that dead mouse at your car that one time......see he can’t hear me “That was you!?” “What was me?” I think he can hear me, well this sucks something fierce. “Nova, I can’t hear your thoughts, you’re thinking out loud again.” “Well yes, I did throw that dead mouse at your car.” This sucks, he can hear me. Well everypony just a heads up, you piss him off he goes Flutterrage on you so just a heads up. Jero sighs “Well, why were you blushing anyway? Wait a sec.....that face you were making....” I started panicking at this point. If he guesses it, I am screwed “What face? I was not making a face, what is with your face?!” Yeah that worked. “That’s the same face I would make when I first started think about Flutter-....” Jero gasps and grins a little “Nova....do you have a crush on somepony?” “No I do not! Why would you think that?” OH COME ON! heh that made me think of Sweetie Belle. “I can tell when you are lying sometimes and that is SO a lie! You have a crush on a filly! Oh, that’s just cute and funny!” “Jero, buddy, this needs to be said” I put my hoof on his leg “You are one of the most feminine males I have ever met” I laughed with my own grin. “So says the guy that has to repeat kindergarten all over again” “Yeah well you....dammit” I have no insults, Celestia help me “Heh, looks like I win. Oh, wait until I tell Twilight about this.” My eyes just shot wide, if he told her my new reputation would be gone faster than... uhhhh I got nothing. “Jero if you do it, I have a few things Fluttershy would just love to see.” I grinned even wider. “Maybe I could show her some of the pictures of her on the internet.” “How would that work against me? I never looked at those pics nor did I make them.” “I have ways and you know it. Like the time I put a dead rat on my boss’s desk.” Oh wait that was before I came here “”Never mind, you would not know about that.” “Don’t even wanna know and it’s not gonna work. Also, don’t even try to tell her about the fic. During this last months I spent with her, I trusted her so much that I didn’t want anymore secrets between us so I told her about it.” “Give me a break please” Time for the killer, I gave him the cutest pair of puppy dog eyes I learned from Sweetie Belle, the master of puppy dog eyes, that could kill a man from the sheer cuteness. Jero closes his eyes as quickly as he could. “You’ve been learning from Sweetie, haven’t you?” “Jero, give me a break on this one. Come on, please bro” I really hope that he keeps it a secret “Wait, when you turn human does your cutie mark stay?” “Uh...random time to ask that, but yeah. Only it appears on my shoulder when I turn human. It can be easy covered with a short sleeved shirt though” “So it looks like a tattoo” I got even happier “So wait, why do you work with foals?” good the subject has been changed “Well, since I...wait a second, you’re not getting out of this that easily! I’ll make you a deal.” Oh goodie a deal, this should be hard for me to keep my end of it but if it is something like cooking, I can handle it “Sure, what is it?” “I won’t say a word for 2 things: One, you never call me pole, Fluttershy a tree, or Scootaloo a chicken again.” “Hey, no promises on not calling Fluttershy a tree. She wants to be a tree, so I call her a tree and the whole Scootaloo thing, I have yet to call her that.” I am insulted! How dare he think that of me. “I know you’ll do it sooner or later, so just in case.” “Fine, deal. Just no talking about it” I really don’t like where this is going “But I have one thing to say.” “Wait, let me just say my 2nd demand:....You have to tell me who you are crushing on.” “When I figure that one out myself, I will tell you.” Now for the one thing I must say “cluck, cluck.” Am I messed up? You know it “Had to do it.” Jero rolled his eyes “So, you have a crush on two fillies, but don’t know which to choose. Am I right?” “Out of both Dinky and Ruby.” WAIT HOW DID HE GET ME TO DO THAT!? “How did you, oh screw it.” Jero chuckled “Well, with me being in a relationship I’m more in touch with getting the hang of helping others with similar problems as well.” “Yeah with me dating more I will not say the word I want to, in fear of you being larger than me.” Seriously he is huge compared to me. “So are we there yet? or is it another hour walk?” but if you were me you would not be able to walk as much. I know one thing though, I hate trying to use magic. A lot of the times my head starts to hurt, I don’t know why but it does. “Don’t worry, we are here” Jero said as we both stopped. I sat on the ground, catching my breath. Jero had started to set everything up while I went into a deep thought. I was not paying attention to anything around me not even the fact that Jero was poking me to get my attention. “Yeah, sorry just went into deep thought again.” I said with a cheesy grin, trying to cover for my screw up of zoning out. I can’t help it, sometimes I go into a deep thought thinking about well, anything. I mean its like, think about when you are in a math class. You zone out, wanting to be anywhere but there. I jumped on the blanket as Jero put the basket containing the food down, and trust me, food sounds good right about now. ________________________________________________________________________________ After a good lunch, and catching up with Jero, we had arrived back at Fluttershy’s. Something about Twilight needing to talk to her brother alone. If she told me I would have understood easily but whatever. Jero and myself had caught up so I am happy. Turns out a lot has happened since we last saw each other, well I guess that is true Jero got to come to Equestria before me, along with turning into a pony a while after, so it works out; in a way. I mean, I have made more friends than imaginable, but something was making my mane itch and I mean itch like crazy. So I did the only thing I could think of. I started scratching it. Oh man, with my bad luck and if they have lice in Equestria then most likely I have lice. Lets hope that is not the case. “Nova, what are you doing?” Jero asked me. I stopped scratching my mane for a second and looked right up at him. I bit my tongue, trying not to go crazy “Scratching my mane, thats what.” but man that itches, and almost burns at the same time. I tried to stop scratching again but alas, I could not stop. “Are you sure you are alright?” Jero asked, I stopped scratching and nodded. I jumped on the couch smiling. “So, what is up with Twilight needing to speak with her brother?” I asked, I can never get over at how high pitched my voice sounds. It is funny as I will get out, but I don’t care for it when Jero gives me crap about it. I think it is very annoying, but nothing I can’t deal with. I had to deal with worse when I really was a kid. “I don’t know, but she said bring you home at around four or five.” Jero said with a smile. He is almost as cheery as Pinkie Pie. Who am I kidding? Nopony can be that cheery, Pinkie Pie is so happy, it scares me. “Okay, now second, do they have tv’s here?” I am wanting to know more about my new home so pardon me if I ask a few things so I know I won’t get bored out of my skull, that and living with Twilight does not help. She throws random questions about crap, she has me study and sometimes at the worst of times, like one time I was making a peanut butter sandwich, and she comes right behind me and ask me a random question. Its lucky that knife did not cut me. “No they don’t” Jero said. Well this sucks, they have all this advanced crap, like heart rate monitors, and all that other crap, yet no tv. Well this sucks. I can’t wait to get back to the library and, I dunno, do anything but study. Heck maybe talk to Shining Armor and ask if he has any tips and tricks on how to deal with Twilight. Still, the one thing I can’t help but wonder is: What else happened on the royal wedding episode? I heard there was another alicorn, but I think that is just something by the fans. Hoping to see a new princess. But I doubt that would happen ever. Here is a deal, if that is true and there is a third alicorn, I will curse right in front of everypony. So if, and when, I see a new ‘princess’. I will do it, I don’t care what happens after I do it. I will, so try me. But the one thing I hate about being this young again is I get distracted REALLY easily. That is not too fun, it sucks, even more so when I zone out in class and Cheerilee calls me out to answer the question. I will say this, the whole bits system, I have yet to understand. I am sure it will come to me sooner or later maybe I can try and get some extra bits from Twilight when I ask her to explain it to me. “Well that sucks, oh well I can find a way to entertain myself, I always do.” I laughed, thinking about some of my more fond memories. Some of them are not the best, but some of them are pretty good. “Also what time is it?” I looked at a clock, seeing it was four thirty. Man ten minutes ago I would have had a four twenty joke. “It is four thirty” I saw Jero’s eyes wide. They looked like they were ready to pop out of his head. “Oh no, we have to go and now!” Jero than grabbed me, running out the door. I know we are headed back to Twilight’s house on run. But I don’t understand why Jero just doesn't fly, I will never know but when he realizes he is late for something, he takes off running. I could see the library in plain sight, it was a good ten second run from here. “Jero, slow down or I am going to vomit.” I think it worked because he stopped running. “Thank you.” I jumped off his back, stretching my limbs, I heard a couple of pops. I then started trotting to the library with Jero close behind me, it is creepy but who cares. I got to the library, seeing my worst enemy, the door. I could not reach that knob if you payed me. I started channeling my magic as I saw a pale purple aura going around the door knob, twisting it. After a little while, I had opened the door. I beamed as I trotted inside, when I got in there I saw a light pink alicorn laughing with Twilight and Shining Armor “What.The. Hell.” ________________________________________________________________________________ I walked down stairs, after learning what soap taste like, and I will say this: It does not taste very good. I guess that nopony takes well to a five year old swearing. I still had some bubbles on my cheek from the soap, I did not notice it until I overheard a light pink alicorn giggling looking at me. I do not find it funny, I find it annoying “Here, let me fix that” I never caught her name but she took a tissue and wiped my face off, even though I could do it on my own. It was not funny that I had my mouth washed out for saying a certain sentence, that I refuse to say again for fear of having my mouth washed out a second time. “Thanks” I grumbled, a little annoyed at the fact I had my mouth washed out for one simple word. I am just going to have to watch what I do and say in fear of what else they might do to me. Well I guess now is as good as time as any to introduce myself, “Hello my name is Nova, nice to meet you” I held my hoof out. The alicorn took my hoof, giggling as she shook it “My what a gentlecolt we have here” great, apparently nopony told her about the deal Celestia made with me “My name is Cadance, it is a pleasure to meet you Nova.” “The feeling is mutual.” I said in a calm tone as Cadance released my hoof. Yet again, I started drifting off, I could not get Dinky or Ruby off my mind. They seem to stay there, taunting me. I can not date them though, it is just strange, I mean I am technically a grown man but I am in a childs body here so I guess I am a child. I for some reason have the attention span of one and a lot of other things. Cadance let out a giggle as she looked over to Shining Armor “I think somepony in this room is in love” is it really that obvious. “How do you know that?” I asked looking at Cadance “Because I am the princess of love” Cadance said and my jaw dropped. I have a question I want to ask her but I can’t think of it for the life of me, sometimes I hate having the mind of a child. I am sure it will come to me “And I also rule the Crystal Kingdom” Wait the what kingdom? This is a joke “Are you kidding? There is another kingdom?” I am shocked, I thought that the whole third alicorn thing was a fan rumor, along with the whole new kingdom thing but I guess it is not a rumor. Well I have not passed out yet so it is good “So, Princess Cadance, did Princess Celestia explain the deal she made with me to you?” Cadance cocked an eyebrow at me “No, I don’t think Aunt Celestia told me about a deal” I groaned at this point, I figured that she would let her niece know. “I did see Twilight leaving with this little tyke.” Shining Armor said as he ruffled my mane, I swear these ponies are killing me on the inside by doing stuff like that. I am not some little kid, well on the outside I am, but I am really an adult. I heard Jero stifle a laugh, I glared at him “I am not a foal Cadance. I am an adult.” I saw both Shining Armor and Cadance laugh at me, for the love of Celestia! “You're a big pony aren't you?” Seriously? Now a princess is speaking to me as if I truly was a child. I am going to die on the inside everyday until they stop doing that. “Well I have to go and meet Fluttershy now” Jero said, as he walked out the door I suddenly got an idea. “So Cadance and Shining Armor, you don’t believe me when I say I am an adult?” I asked they nodded. “Nova what are you getting at?” Twilight asked, I grinned. “Well so you will believe me let me tell you a story” I grinned. ________________________________________________________________________________ After a few hours of talking, getting to know Cadance and Shining Armor, they had taken their leave so Twilight opened a book, Spike went to spend the night with Rarity and I went to take a bath, the whole time I could not believe that Cadance had invited both Twilight and myself to stay with her and Shining Armor at the Crystal Empire. I had finished my bath, after drying off and throwing my towel in the hamper, I went into the living room, which in was really just the main room of the library but it acts as a living room. I saw Twilight reading a book but I could not make it out, so I went in front of to see what book she was reading. It took me a second but I saw the name of the book that Twilight was reading it was ‘Parenting Foals For Dummies’ I decided to shake it off and grab a book of my own, I grabbed Daring Doo Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull I guess she is the female Equestria version of Indiana Jones. I opened the book and started reading, getting caught up in my own little world “Hmm this is interesting” I flipped the page and kept reading. When I get caught up in a book nothing can break my concentration, I kept my eyes on the book until I let out a small yawn. I shook my head to stay awake, I must know what happens at the end of this book. I kept reading until I let out another yawn “I must know what happens.” I said aloud only to find myself being lifted into the air. When I looked back I saw Twilight smiling at me “What are you doing?” “You are sleepy and this book I am reading says when a foal is sleepy he, or she, should be put to bed immediately.” Twilight explained. As she tucked me in I let out another yawn. “I am not tired” I protested as Twilight gave me a kiss on the head “The heck?” “Well either way you need to be in bed, it is a school night after all” Twilight smiled before looking at her book again, I don’t like where this is going. “Good night Nova, mommy loves you.” Now I am confused as to what is going on “Did that really just happen and did Twilight really just say that?” I think to myself before drifting off to sleep. But before anything I did not mean to say this but it slipped out “I love you too mommy.” I am never going to hear the end of that. ________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next morning with a massive yawn. I did not feel like opening my eyes in fear of the dreaded sunlight on my eyes. I felt like I was hugging something and when I opened my eyes I saw Twilight’s old smarty pants doll. I don’t know how it even got in here unless it comes alive at night and for some reason it came in here...that is just crazy talk, even for me. Why am I still hugging this thing? I tossed the offending stuffed animal thing, I am not sure what it would be called but still, now it is on the floor. I started trotting down stairs, I could hear Twilight talking to somepony, but I could not tell. I stood at the same spot I did last time. I could make out Rarity’s voice, why is it shocking that her voice is so easy to make out? She is a drama queen, still, what is Twilight telling her? I went down one more step so I could hear what they were saying. Twilight let out a silent yet audible squeal of joy “And after I told him I love you, after he fell asleep he said ‘I love you too mommy’!” I heard Rarity let out a squeal “But an hour or two later I went to check on him and he was just shifting around, like he was not comfortable, so I dug up my old Smarty Pants doll and gave it to him, after that he seemed to calm down but I went to check on him a while later and he was hugging it. I just had to take a picture and I did.” Twilight did what now. I heard Rarity take in a small inhale “Oh darling, I think it is quite marvelous that he thinks of you as his mother already” seriously I do not remember saying that, and she took a picture of me, that is just mean. How would she like it if I did the same to her? I decided now would be a good time to go and get breakfast. I walked into the kitchen, rubbing my eyes. I was not paying half a mind, but I was picked up in the air again, when I looked I saw Twilight, she pulled me into a hug, grinning ear to ear. Twilight put me down still smiling “Good morning Nova, I hope you slept well.” I simply nodded but Twilight’s grin did not fade and I could tell it would not anytime soon. “Also there is no school today.” I smiled back “That’s good” I let out one more yawn, I am still in the process of waking up “So am I free to do what I want today?” Twilight nodded “Good. Is it alright if I go out and get to see Ponyville on my own?” I want to get to see the whole town on my own with no adults. Twilight let out a small giggle “Yes you may but I want you to go and make your bed.” Twilight poked my nose “And I will make you some breakfast” I huffed and went back upstairs to make my bed. I had finished fixing my bed up, like Twilight had asked me, when I looked at the floor. Seeing the smarty pants doll I was hugging when I woke up. “Hmm should I leave it or put it up on my bed” I shrugged, I mean Twilight did give it to me when I was sleeping so I guess it won’t hurt to put it on my bed. Walking back downstairs I could hear Twilight saying something else so I decided to walk into the kitchen to get my food. When I did get in the kitchen, I saw Twilight and only Twilight. I am guessing Rarity had to leave for something; I don’t know what but and I don’t care. But still Twilight is a bit giddy today “Twilight you are kinda creeping me out.” I am not joking she is just smiling at me like that. Twilight patted me on the head “Sorry Nova, just that picture I got of you snuggling up to my old Smarty Pants doll was cute.” I hope she only made one copy of that “I also made waffles for breakfast.” At the sound of food I jumped into my chair while Twilight levitated my plate in front of me. I did not even bother with a fork I just dug in.
Chapter 9: School Days And Possible Broken Noses Chapter 9: School Days And Possible Broken Noses Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ After exploring the town, or village, I am not sure what Ponyville would be called, but after getting to know it a bit more yesterday I got to say it is pretty big. But today, I had to go back to school. I trotted to the school building, it is a good size, when I got inside I was greeted by Dinky and Ruby along with Rumble, my fellow crusaders. I took my seat, looking at the board I saw “Today’s lesson is on the color green.” written in big letters. I really hate being back in kinder garden some days Dinky was the first to speak up “Hey Nova do you want to come crusading with us today?” “Yeah, we came up with some awesome stuff!” Rumble said “I thought we could try and help my mom out in her shop” Ruby said with a smile, I nodded, they are all good ideas but I could not think of anything. I thought for a second. I did not want to be rude, yet I want to hang out with them “I don’t know. I kinda wanted to do something after school today on my own.” I heard them all groan in disappointment “Sorry but I just wanted to be alone after school today when we are all busy, Twilight is having somepony foalsit me once again, sorry.” They all understood. We kept chatting until Cheerilee entered the room “Good morning my little ponies” I did not think she would say that. I let out a small yawn; I am still a little tired. I did not sleep well, thing is I lost the smarty pants doll and I don’t know why it affected my sleep but it did. I am so sleepy “Today's lesson we will be starting out with learning about the color green and after that we will be doing math.” I heard all of the foals in the classroom groan at the sound of math, I was one of them. I am still sleepy though, I wish I would have taken the class at twelve to four; it is all the same thing just different times. I could feel my eyes closing, I kept trying to fight it but it was hard. Eventually I gave in and fell asleep. ____________________________________________________ I was still sleeping in Cheerilee's class, I said it already I was tired, my left ear twitched but what woke me up was not Twilight shaking me gently. Instead it was a book slamming on my desk, I shot awake "ORANGE!" was the first thing to come out of my mouth. Everypony in class started laughing at me and I felt a blush growing on my face as a result. Cheerilee gave me an unamused look. I just looked down. Cheerilee finally spoke "Nova is my class so boring that it made you fall asleep?" I just shook my head, I knew I was in trouble "Well I want you to wait after class, am I understood young colt." I nodded as I waited for everypony to leave the classroom and they did, fast. The only ones I saw still waiting outside were Lime Wire and his little friends. I saw Cheerilee sigh "Nova listen, I don't want to be your enemy. I want to be your friend." I do not like were this is going "So Nova I want you to get Twilight to sign this." Cheerilee than placed a piece of paper in my saddle bags before placing my saddle bags on me. I sighed as I made my way out the door. While walking to Twilight's, I saw Lime Wire following me. Twilight had packed me a lunch so I decided to go to the park and eat it. Upon arrival I found a nice shaded tree and I sat under it, opening my saddle bags I saw a sandwich, a juice box and some other things. But before I could grab anything I saw the one known as Lime Wire approaching me. "Hey nerd!" Lime Wire shouted, I just groaned hoping he would leave me alone. "Hey I am talking to you!" I just looked at him "What do you want?" I asked, not looking forward to what this colt wanted. I am betting in his twisted mind he thinks I did something to him. Lime Wire grinned "Because of you, my mom took away my favorite toy." REALLY!? He is blaming me for this, sweet Celestia help me please. I just rolled my eyes "I did not do anything. You did that to yourself." I really want to smack him "Can you leave me alone so I can eat now? And that means in peace." "Oh this lunch" Lime Wire said as he stomped the lunch Twilight had packed me "No you cannot" Great now I have to deal with him all day. I stood up "Listen if you have a problem with me then let’s talk about it." I felt a hoof hit my side so I guess talking it out won't work. I turned and saw another Pegasus, this one was yellow. I walked over to them and hit the other Pegasus before hitting Lime in the muzzle. I guess that was some kind of bait, because before I could turn. I was being held back. "Hey let me go!" I shouted, before anything else happened Lime Wire bucked me in the face, and it hurt. When the pony that was holding me had let go, I fell to the ground, and laid there, just waiting for them to leave. After about ten minutes they had left. I grabbed my saddle bags and took off running back towards Twilight's home. When I arrived I dropped my saddle bags on the floor and started walking to the stairs, only to be lifted into the air. Twilight then sat me on her stomach. Twilight nuzzled my cheek "Hey Nova, I heard what happened." Twilight took a tissue and wiped my nose, I don't know why, but she did. I just buried my face into her chest. "Listen Nova, me and the girls are going to Canterlot today and we will be gone all week" I nodded, understanding, before falling asleep right there.I am turning into such a wuss Author's Note So yeah this was a chapter I wrote a few minuets after chapter 3 or 4 I was going to publish it but I decided not to BUT I thought about putting it as some cut content but I though naw show what happens while Nova is in school so here it is after this chapter the next chapter will be MUCH MUCH bigger so I hope you like it Sparknanator~
Chapter 10:The StormFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _______________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up in the morning but for once it was not in my bed instead I was in the guest bedroom at Fluttershy’s cottage I streached my arms yawning I looked around I know it seems strange but I had to hug my Smarty Pants doll it has become a morning ritual of mine I know it seems like something a little kid would do but hey I am five now so who cares I sure don’t I heard a small knock on the door I forgot to mention that Fluttershy and the rest of them along with Sweetie Belle are in Canterlot right now so yeah it is just me and Jero right now I guess Twilight decided since we know each other already he is my new foalsitter so who cares I would never say it out loud though but I would gladly call Twilight mom if it was not for getting teased I also got punished yesterday reason being is yesterday was my parent teacher conference and well where Twilight was not around Jero went in her place so when he found out I had gotten into a book fight that turned into me beating up Lime Wire he punished me by making me clean out the chicken coop I yawned again “Come in” I shouted as Jero came in thank Celestia it is a weekend but I really miss Twilight or as I like to call her when I pretend to be alseep mommy I hope nopony figures out that I am faking like I am asleep I really don’t want anypony to know Jero came into the guest room as I put down my Smarty Pants doll smiling “Good morning Jero” Jero ruffled my mane “Morning Nova” I hate it when he does that it kills my pride I sniffed seeing as my nose gets clogged up when I sleep but this time it was not instead I smelled something good “What is that smell?” I asked “Well I thought you would like some waffles for breakfast” Jero said as I took off for the door not to go to the kitchen to eat but to take care of some personal matters “Don’t forget to wash up!” I came out of the bathroom and yes I washed my hooves so don’t ask when I was going down the stairs I fell being the smart pony I am I shook it off even though it hurt I went into the kitchen jumping in a chair I saw Angel sitting in one I don’t want to know so I won’t ask still though those butter covered waffles looked and smelled good so I just dug right in not caring how hot the butter was I was hungry and that is all I cared about I had finished my food in a pretty good time looking at the calender I saw it was Monday HOW LONG DID I SLEEP!? “Oh goodie it is Monday and I have to go to school” I hate school if you can not tell Jero let out a small laugh “Yup now come on out the door with you” crap he is going to make me go…oh well I guess that is the price of getting a second childhood I put my saddle bags on heading for the door “I hate this some days and I swear if Lime Wire starts with me today I will hurt him” I walked out the front door my mind drifitng the whole time “I wonder what todays lesson will be on I hope not another color” I arrived at the school seeing Cheerilee waiting at the door she had a smirk looking at me “Good morning Nova I think you will do well in todays lesson” Cheerilee said looking right at me I nodded and walked to me seat Cheerilee walked into the class room with a smile on her face either she is in a good mood or she got some last night “Good morning” No smug remarks good I saw her write on the bord ‘Todays lesson is on the color orange’ son of a “I think Nova will know all about this color” I knew it I freaking knew it The whole class started laughing at me I felt my face go flush “Yeah seeing as he shouted it last week” Who ever said that I am going to hurt them well if it was a colt than yeah I am going to hurt him you know what not worth the time “Why don’t you say that to my face to I can hit you” I think I said that too loud because Cheerilee is glaring at me Today what a freaking day is all I can say Cheerilee made me stay behind and write stuff on the board it sucked either way I need to get back to Fluttershy’s house so I can do this homework and have it done in a decent time and hopefully enjoy the rest of the day wow making this walk does not take too much time when you have to make it everyday I am glad I know there is a thunderstorm today I walked in the front door to see nopony around “Yo Jero I am home” I shouted hearing him shout something back Jero came into the living room “Get to doing your homework” Oh really I thought I would just sit down and turn on the TV oh wait I forgot they do not have TV’s here I sat down at the table pulling the crap Cheerilee calls homework out and started working on it I can not believe how easy this crap is well seeing as it is for a kindergarden class I am not shocked still I keep feeling like I am being watched at night and it scares me I dunno why though I still finished that homework so that is a good start “Hey Jero I finished the crap called homework” I shouted getting up and walking into the kitchen “What’s for dinner?” Pardon me for being hungry but in other news I still hate the night time I don’t know why but that Smarty Pants doll makes me feel safe don’t you judge me or else I will find you ____________________________________________________________________________________ The night time had arrived after a nice dinner getting myself cleaned up aia came downstairs hearing a loud crack of thunder I froze up “It can’t hurt me but it can scare the crap out of me” I REALLY hate thunder almost as much as I hate needles that is the only bad part about this whole second childhood thing a lot of my old childhood fears have come back like thunder,needles,thunder,the dark,thunder,being alone,thunder,being in big crowds oh and did I mention thunder? I don’t know if I did still it is almost nine at night wow time passes when you have fun I really wish Twilight was back because I don’t know if she has said anything but on stormy nights I sneak into her bedroom and snuggle up to her at night and I don’t care what other ponies think of me for it still though there was one more crack of thunder before the power shot out I screamed in fear I really really hate the dark it scares me to the point of tears but before anything else I saw a flash of lightning and a face looking at me through the window before I saw anything else or did anything else Author's Note Well this is where the story is picking up I hope you like it so far Sparknanator~
Chapter 11:She Is My Mother And They Are My FamilyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ______________________________________________________________________________ I kept crying from the fear of what ever it was I saw that is the one thing I hate about being five again when something scares me to the point of crying I really don’t like it because when I do start crying nopony can understand what I am saying “Calm down Nova” Jero kept trying to calm me down but it was no use I kept trying to talk but it was impossible to understand what I was saying the only thing that could be understood was ‘Monster staring at me’ I am truly turning into a child and I really need to speak to the princess about why I am acting like a child but still that thing scared me so bad I was Twilight now so that way I could snuggle up to her at bedtime The power had came back on a couple of hours ago but I was still crying and I don’t know why all I know is I was scared and could not stop crying I just don’t know what that thing was it looked like a messed up hybrid of a bug and alicorn I had managed to calm down finally “Wh-what was th-that t-thing?” it had been a couple of hours and after Jero’s failed attempts to calm me down and cleaning up something and I wont say what Jero smiled as he patted me on the back “Its alright Nova now just tell me what it was you saw” I sniffled and started to explain what that thing was that I had seen when I finished Jero’s eyes widened “Nova that was a changling!” I looked at Jero confused “A what?” what the heck is a changling I mean it this thing I saw was freaky Jero ran upstairs leaving me alone I started shaking again until he came back with a book and for some reason my Smarty Pants doll I grabbed that thing and hugged I don’t know why I know I said this already but that thing makes me feel safe and even though Twilight is not here when I hug this I feel like Twilight is here I think that is the one reason she gave it to me I was not even paying attention but Jero was opening the book he had brought Jero pointed to something in the book “This is a normal changling, Is this what you saw?” I just shook my head he kept pointing to page after page with different pictures of changlings but I kept shaking my head on each one of them “Well what did it look like?” I sniffled and wiped some of the tears from my eyes “W-well it it had a red coat almost like a crimson color a-and holes in its legs a-a-and a b-black mane and tail” I wanted to start crying again but I will not I sniffled again “I-it has been doing stuff like that ever night for the past few days a-and every night f-for the past few days” I felt tears forming in my eyes again “I-t just looked at me through my bedroom window” I really hate how stuff like that scares me so easily “S-so what I do is sneak into Twilight’s room and climb into her bed” I know it is what a child would do but I am a child now “OK calm down you are safe” I nodded understanding what Jero was saying I know they would never let anything hurt me “Now when Twilight gets back tomorrow I will tell her what is going on” I nodded “Jero can I ask you something?” I asked Jero smiled and nodded “Can I sleep with you tonight?” I saw Jero trying not to laugh “Sure thing” I smiled as he picked me up “Wait where are you taking me?” “Its bedtime that is where” ________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next day yawning looking around I saw I was not in the guest bedroom and looking at the time I saw it was two in the afternoon I just shook it off even though today is tusday I jumped off the bed streaching and yawning I decided to go downstairs and see if I was here alone seeing as it is day time I don’t think that changling will bother me….at least I hope not when I got downstairs I saw Twilight was back and talking to Fluttershy my eyes snapped open as I went into a full gallop and jumped on Twilight’s lap I hugged her as tight as I could I know it makes me seems like a mommas boy but screw off after what I went through I really missed her Twilight returned the hug “I missed you too Nova” I know I said I would never say this out loud but who cares “I missed you too mommy” I heard Fluttershy ‘aww’ at that sight but who cares because it is true in the four months I have been in Equestria she has grown on me like a mother I swear if I catch crap about it I am going to be kinda pissed I hope nopony told her about me hitting Lime Wire in the head with a book that little I don’t know what to call him had it coming though Twilight nuzzled me “I missed you and I heard about the changling that is stalking you” Twilight smiled “I wont let anything harm you I promise” I hugged Twilight even tighter after that I know she means it and I know that none of my friends would let any harm come to me heck if anything they are a big family to me we always have each others back no matter what “Oh well I am so sorry for the power going out” Fluttershy said “Its not your fault Fluttershy it could not be helped it was just a thunderstorm” That scared me “Other wise everything else was fine” besides my fear of thunder that scares the living crap out of me and last night when I startedd crying for a couple of hours like the wuss I am turning into because of who knows why but still I can tell that everypony here will help me out through anything they can I looked to my side and noticed a bag I don’t know who it belonges too but I really could not care less….what is Twilight doing with that hair brush I started squirming “Hold still Nova” Twilight said as she held me down and started brushing my mane oh good that is all she is doing I thought she was going to hit me with it after Twilight had finished brushing my mane I heard the one thing that could not have worse timing one of the biggist cracks of thinder ever I immediately gipped onto Twilight for safty “Oh my I forgot that a storm was scudualed for today” Fluttershy said as I kept my grip on Twilight I refuse to start crying well again at least I saw Jero come in the door from weather duty I am guessing I still did not let go of Twilight she is like a safty blanket “Hey everypony” Jero said I just waved to him not moving an inch or loosening up “Hi Jero” Both Twilight and Fluttershy said at the same time “Umm Jero I am sorry to ask this of you but me and the girls are going out tonight think you can keep an eye on” Twilight smirked “The little foal who wont let go of his mommy” Oh Twilight you asked for it I felt a blush growing on my cheeks from that statement but I kept my face buried in Twilight’s chest “I can let go at any time I want to!” Jero sighed “Sure I can watch Nova again” Good other wise I would be alone again and freak out and most likely I would start crying again from the fear I am like Fluttershy when she is near a dragon well a full grown dragon when I hear a crack of thunder I freeze up “Thank you Jero” Fluttershy said in her normal sweet and very low tone of voice I gotta say it is kinda cute if you think about it I finally decided to let Twilight out of my iron grip Twilight gave me a kiss on the cheek before putting me on the couch inbetween herself and Fluttershy man these ponies really do love me _____________________________________________________________________________ The sun had went down yet the storm had not calmed down I was still scared “Hey Nova do you want some cocoa?” Jero asked I shrugged “I guess I would like some coffee but I already know the answer to that is a big no” Jero laughed as he brought me a mug of hot cocoa I held it with my hooves seeing as I know if I use my magic I will some how drop it and burn myself “So where is Scootaloo at?” “I don’t know the whole time I have been here I know nothing of her home life nor do I know her parents” Jero said “Oh she does not have any parents” I said calmly I saw Jero’s eyes widen “WHAT!?” Jero’s asked “Where is she right now!?” I srugged again “I am guessing she is staying with Applebloom” I don’t know where she stays it is not my job to keep up with her I am not her father after all I am only a little colt so yeah it is not my fault “What do you mean you guess?” Jero asked one again I shrugged Author's Note So yeah I know the past few chapters are REALLY small but I have been working with my moms laptop and the keys on the keyboard are 1 or 2cm so yeah.....BUT the next chapter I will try and make a BIG BIG BIG chapter remember I will try so dont get your hopes up
Chapter 12:The Orange FillyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ Jero had left about thirty minuets ago both myself and Angel where playing poker that dang bunny is good I will say I never thought I would see the day when I got beat in poker by a freaking bunny I have now seen everything yet the one pony I have yet to see is Trixie and I really want to see her that would be awesome I mean sure she has a big ego but who cares we can all boast some times or in Rainbow Dash’s case a lot well I don’t do it that is for sure the poker game was interupted by Jero slamming through the front door with a shivering pegasus filly “Quick Nova go and get a blanket” Jero said as he placed Scootaloo in front of the fire place as I came downstairs with a blanket that had little pictures of chickens on it I know Jero might get all mad about it but instead he just took the blanket and covered Scootaloo with it "How could I have not guessed this" I don't know what to say I mean it I am at a loss for words "Jero what are you going to do?" I asked he did not look at me Jero just looked down "I-I just don't know Nova I just don't know" _________________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up the next day in the guest bedroom I could hear Scootaloo talking I trotted downstairs and made myself known "Good morning" I saw Scootaloo with tearful eyes looking back at me crap what wrong did I do "Good morning" I saw a small smirk growing on Scootaloo's face "How did you sleep squirt?" "Did she just call me squirt really!?" I grinned "pretty good and how did you sleep chicken?" that one might have went too far but who cares I sure don't "I slept better than I have in my whole life" Scootaloo said as I went over to the table sitting down on one of the pillows smiling a little I looked into Scootaloo's eyes "So what did you and Jero talk about?" I asked "W-well we just spoke about why I did not come to anypony about not having anywhere to live" Scootaloo took a deep breath "A-and I told him I was too scared to tell anypony because I was scared that they would send me to an orphanage in Canterlot or some place far away from Ponyville" I feel bad for Scootaloo she is scared that they will send her off but they would not do that I am sure of it I put my hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder "Don't worry Scootaloo there is no way in Equestria anypony would EVER send you off" _________________________________________________________________________________________ I decided that since it was late in the afternoon I would go out and help Jero with his chores around the cottage I got flower duty so I had to water all of the flowers at Fluttershy's house so I knew that would take me forever but anything to help out a friend the only thing I did not care for is I have to hold the watering pot in my mouth I still though both Scootaloo and Jero went to the mayor’s office to do something about the Scootaloo situation I hope she says yes so that way everything can get back to normal I know this seems like I am acting immature but I don’t really care I hate being left alone for hours at a time but at least I had finished the chores I went and put up everything from the chores the only thing I do not like is Twilight got Rarity to make me two pairs of those accursed pajamas one of them has a book pattern on them and the other have little numbers on them Twilight had to wash the ones with the book pattern on them so now until Twilight gets back witch will be after tonight and I already know I will be asleep but who cares I hate how much Twilight has to go out it seems like she never has time for me any more well I mean she is busy a lot with sending letters to the princess and all of that _________________________________________________________________________________________ I had fallen asleep on the couch not even caring I woke up just barely as the door shut I could hear a voice or two they belonged to Jero and Scootaloo I did not want to open my eyes instead I wanted to stay asleep I would have gotten up but I was so sleepy and so lazy I heard Jero let out a laugh “Well it looks like Nova fell asleep” Jero said as he picked me up I kept my eyes shut as Jero carried me “Looks like the little guy tuckered himself out while we where gone” I felt some sort of soft cloth being put on me the next noise I heard was a zipper I cracked my eyes open “No I am not sleepy” I protested trying to stay awake only to hear Scootaloo giggle “Aww did the little colt tire himself out?” Scootaloo asked as she giggled again when I opened my eyes I saw I was wearing a pair of hoofsie pajamas the ones with little numbers on them I blushed when I saw them “Do I have to wear these?” I asked Jero just nodded “Sorry but these are the only ones Twilight packed for you” Jero said as he put me on the bed “And I spoke to the mayor she said that the paper work I filled out should be processed with in the next week and Scootaloo will be legally my daughter” I kept fighting to keep my eyes open “That is good but I am not sleepy” after a while of struggling I ended up falling asleep both Jero and Scootaloo walked out of the room laughing it up at me “Well Scootaloo I guess you can sleep with me tonight if you want to that is” Jero said as he let out a small yawn of his own “That sounds good” Scootaloo said letting out a yawn of her on Author's Note Well everypony this is where the story is really taking off but as you remember the changling from a few chapters ago well lets say this he will be back
Chapter 13:Help Me.....Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ Another day in school today was alright. I mean sure, it is with a bunch of foals but who cares? Cheerilee put on some music today so that was good, but still I can’t help shake this feeling that I am being watched. I looked behind me “Hello, anypony there?” huh, nothing. I can’t shake it though. It feels like that ‘changeling’ or whatever it was called is following me. I shuddered at the thought of that thing as I kept walking. I just wanted to go back to the library and take a little nap, I have not slept well in the past few days and yes it is because I cannot find my Smarty Pants doll. That and I am too scared to sleep at night because I still feel like something is watching me, be it a changeling or something else, so I just climb into Twilight’s bed and snuggle up to her, she can take Smarty pants’ place. For now... I sighed “Well she told me to spend some time getting to know other ponies.” I stood still for a second “I guess I could do that, or lie about it.” I smirked and just kept trotting. I guess I could go to that one tree and finish the daring doo book that I have been trying to finish for who knows how long now. I know it has been a few days since I started it. I kept walking, only to be stopped by Sweetie Drops “Hey Nova, come here.” I let out a small sigh and went over to her “Here you go kiddo.” Sweetie Drops said before she put a brown paper bag into my saddle bags. I smiled a little “Thanks Sweetie Drops.” I wonder what she put in that bag. I guess I will find out later. I know Twilight packed me a nice little juice box. “You are welcome Nova” Sweetie Drops said, patting me on the head “Just don’t tell Twilight alright” Sweetie Drops added with a wink. I let out a small laugh “Ok Sweetie Drops.” Man her name sounds strange “I won’t tell Twilight.” I continued trotting to the tree. Today so far has been pretty good I will say, first off we got to listen to music in school and now Sweetie Drops gave me a free candy! This is so AWESOME! I wonder what will happen next. Nothing, because I am at my location, the shady tree I sat at last time I read. I sat down and opened my saddle bags, pulling out my book and opening it to the page I was last on. _________________________________________________________________________________________ I let out a small yawn, I had been out here reading this one book all day and I gotta say, I am a little tired. Though that candy Sweetie Drops gave me was pretty good. I looked up at the sky “Huh, it’s getting pretty dark out.” I said aloud while I packed my saddle bags and began trotting back to the library. Twilight had decided to set a curfew for me earlier this week “I hope Twilight is not mad that I am a little late.” The whole walk to the library I could not stop feeling like I was being watched, I turned several times but there was nothing, I was alone “Ugg I think I am even more tired than I thought.” I kept just walking, hoping to get home soon, until I heard something and turned to look. Just as the last time I checked, nothing was there. “Listen, if somepony is pulling a prank, you need to stop! It’s not funny!” I started trotting a little faster. “Come on. Whoever this is you are scaring me.” I said now running as fast as I could, I kept hearing what sounded like a bee “Seriously Rainbow Dash, if this is you just stop. You are taking it too far now.” I was in a full blown gallop, now racing towards the library. The buzzing kept getting louder and closer “HELP ME SOMEPONY!” I shouted, running faster now crying. I kept running until I saw a figure land in front of me “Aw, is the little foal lost?” when I looked up at it I saw it was that changeling thing. I tried running in the other direction only to be caught in its magical grip “Don’t worry; I will take you ‘home’.” ________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight had been all over Ponyville searching for Nova, yet she could not find him. She had checked at Sugar Cube Corner, Sweet Apple Acres, Twilight had even asked most of her friends but none of them had seen him all day. Twilight even asked Ditzy Doo and Berry Punch, neither of them had seen the little colt “I hope Nova is alright.” Twilight said as she worriedly made her way to Fluttershy’s cottage. “Let’s think, I have checked with Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity, along with Cheerilee.” Twilight let out a frustrated groan “So now let’s think. The last pony to see him was Cheerilee and she has not seen him since after school.” Twilight started trotting a little faster “If he fell asleep at Fluttershy’s house I know he is in good hooves.” Twilight just sighed “Maybe I should let my parents meet Nova......or maybe not yet.” Twilight arrived at Fluttershy’s cottage, nearly in full gallop. Knocking on the door she could hear some commotion “For the love of Celestia what did Nova do?” Twilight asked to nopony in particular. She knocked on the door again. After waiting another ten minutes or so, the door swung open revealing a clearly annoyed Jero and Fluttershy. The two looked at Twilight for a few seconds. “Hey Twilight, what is it?” Jero asked Fluttershy noticed the worry on her friends face “Oh, umm Twilight come in” she then hid behind her mane “If you want to that is.” Twilight smiled and stepped inside, seeing the living room was a wreck. Twilight looked again seeing Angel in what Fluttershy called his ‘quiet area.’ The lavender mare took a seat on the couch before looking at her friends. “Twilight, is something wrong?” Jero asked “Umm Twilight you look a little upset” Fluttershy said stating the obvious Twilight took a deep breath “Have you seen Nova?” Author's Note So everypony I have been planning this out for a while now it will be about 2 or 3 chapters so I hope you all enjoy so far
Chapter 14:My Cutie Mark! YAY!Friends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ________________________________________________________________________________ Let’s see… It has been three days since that 'changeling' took me and now I am bored and a tad bit hungry, I need a bath and desperately. I have not had one all day and I am starting to smell like a...... AppleJack is better at doing that. But let me put it this way; I don't smell like a patch of roses, there is one, but still I want to know why they have taken me. Here let’s see. There is a brown stallion, a gold colored mare, and last but not least the freaking 'changeling' those bug eyes are creepy I shuddered from the memory still. At least they gave me a decent sized room with a bed and a lamp but that is all, the room has a bathroom so I am golden, well really it is just a toilet but I get to bathe though I am only given two minutes a day so I have to try and make it fast, only getting to wash my mane. I jumped onto my bed and started a staring match with the wall. Sadly, I was losing. I just stared for what felt like years "This is so boring" I whined and yes I will admit it, I whined. So what? "I wish I was back home, with the other crusaders." I flopped on my belly, I don't understand why this had to happen to me, out of anypony else; not that I would want this to happen to anypony. Trust me I would not. But the only thing I hate is I miss my Smarty Pants doll I know that it may seem foalish but I do. Sleeping isn’t as easy without it or Twilight, in case I couldn’t find him. I continued my little pity party until I heard a knock on the door; I am betting it is the stallion, what was his name? Oh yeah, it was Dark Blade, or the 'changling' Mirror Recall I just hope it is Storm Bringer the mare she is the nicest out of them all heck she somehow snuck me a little bit of ice cream and let me tell you it was good but what I find very odd is they are all blank flanks. Grown ponies without their cutie marks, I didn’t think it was possible. I was able to see the mane of the one entering sticking through the door, I don't know why but they are all black. Who knows "Hey kid, you awake?" Dark Blade asked, I wanted to make a snide remark or pretend to be asleep but I know that might end badly. Like having my bed taken away, leaving me to sleep on the floor, and before you say anything I’m not acting like Rarity; it isn’t that it’s dirty, it’s just really uncomfortable. I sighed "Yeah, I am awake. What do you need?" He trotted in "Well I know you are wondering why we took you." _________________________________________________________________________________ I sat there after he had left, jaw on the floor, not believing any of it. Because of Twilight and her brother they want to hurt Twilight by taking ME, her child. This is wrong, I felt my horn spark a little "As soon as I can figure out a spell it is so on" I jumped off my bed and started pacing around the room "This sucks. The least they can do is send her a letter or something to let her know I am alright." I kept my pacing up "I miss everypony." I looked out the window, which was out of my reach "But I out of all the crusaders I miss Dinky the most." I felt a faint blush growing on my face thinking about her but now is NOT the time for my crush now is the time to escape or try at least. _________________________________________________________________________________ It has been a few hours but I had done it finally I had perfected a spell to help me escape I smirked I went to the door I know they kept it unlocked I don't understand why but they do I opened it only to hear somepony scream "Where is he!?" wait that almost sounded like......TWILIGHT! I began to gallop grinning that she had found me so fast but when I got into the room I saw she was angry Twilight's coat had turned white and her mane and tail were on fire wow so this is what rapidash Twilight looks like just wow she is MAD but something snapped in me I saw the 'changling' slam into her "You did not just her her" I said they all looked at me "YOU DID NOT JUST HURT MY MOTHER!" I felt like I was starting to float in the air "You.Do.Not.Bucking.Touch MY FAMILY" That is when it happened the unexplainable I felt my magic taking over my body it feels like the episode where Twilight got her cutie mark my eye's glowed white with magic as my horn lit up I could not control my self I saw Twilight standing there in shock while Jero was laying on the ground that is what caused me to loose all control "Nova!" Twilight shouted trying to get me to calm down I read something in a book about something with unicorns my age's magic is sometimes powered my emotions "Nova you have to calm down" I could not stop what was going on "DAMIAN!" Jero shouted "You have to stop and control yourself" I felt myself lowering as I soon fainted but before that there was one more flash of light and everything went dark Author's Note Nova got his cutie mark now but this is not the end of it trust me on that also I want to thank Clearshot01 for helping me think of names for Dark Blade,Storm Bringer and last but not least the changling Mirror Recall also I know I know I know it took a while to update but I kinda lost the file for this chapter so yeah :p hope you like
Chapter 7:First School Day.Bullies,The New CMC & And A Welcoming PartyFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator _________________________________________________________________________________________ It was a normal day for the weather team, Jero and Rainbow Dash were preparing for a storm, moving the clouds into their correct positions. It had taken the pair hours to do seeing as everyone else on the weather team had all came down with something known as ‘feather flu’. Rainbow Dash was frustrated that it was only her and Jero on weather duty. After getting the last patch of cloud, Rainbow Dash noticed something. “Hey Jero did you put that cloud over there?” Rainbow Dash asked staring at Jero with a look of confusion on her face. The cloud she had spotted was lingering over the Everfree Forest. “No, it wasn't me, you don't think it could've come from the Everfree, do you?” Jero asked . “Nope I don’t think it could have” Rainbow Dash stated flying over to the cloud with Jero flanking her after a second they started to hit the cloud in hopes of breaking it “It won't budge” Jero on the other hoof was trying to move the cloud “Maybe we should try and move it” When Rainbow Dash did not answer “Jero move NOW!” Rainbow Dash screamed taking off Jero did not understand why she told him to move until the cloud exploded causing him to fall only to land in a blue flower “YOU OKAY DOWN THERE? THAT LOOKS LIKE IT HURT!” “I'm ok! Nothing broken.” Jero replied while brushing his coat off realizing the flowers he landed in “ Uh oh...” “Oh this is not good” Rainbow Dash said as if coincidence Zecora was walking their way “Hello my good friend Jero” Zecora said smiling walking to the pair “I hope all is well” “Zecora! Man, is it lucky you showed up just now.I seem to have landed on some Poison Joke. You wouldn't happen to have any antidote on you, would you?” Jero asked with hope filled eyes “Not with me it seems the joke has no mean for soon time will tell” Zecora said “Great.” Jero let out a sigh “ At least it isn't contagious or dangerous” Jero thought to himself “Well when do you think you could make some more?” “It seems I do not have all the supplies with me only at my hut when I do I will fix you up Zecora smiled Jero nodded “Ok, thank you Zecora. *sigh* I guess I will just have to deal with whatever the poison joke does to me until then.” “Oh if you turn into a mare it will be funny or even a foal” Rainbow Dash said with a laugh “You should rest and hope for the best” Zecora said trying her best to reassure Jero he would be fine “Don't even joke about that Rainbow.” Jero nodded at Zecora “You're right Zecora. I'll see you soon. “ With that Jero and Rainbow Dash took off Jero had arrived at home seeing Fluttershy tending to her garden when she turned around she noticed him “Oh welcome home Jero” “Hey Fluttershy.” Jero then kissed Fluttershy on the cheek “Um...I need to tell you something.” “What is it did something bad happen?” Fluttershy asked eyes widened as she started hyperventilating “Well, I was helping Rainbow with weather duty when we ran into an odd cloud. We tried to move it and it wouldn't budge and later we found out it was unstable and going to explode. We flew out of the way, but the wind caused me to lose balance and I crashed in a flower patch. I'm OK but....the patch had some Poison Joke in it” Jero explained “Oh are you alright you? did not get hurt did you? are your wings okay?” Fluttershy started bombarding Jero with questions Jero gave Fluttershy a kiss to help calm her” I'm OK Fluttershy, nothing hurt or broken.” “Well did Zecora help you with a cure?” Fluttershy asked Jero just shook his head “She said she didn't have any on her right now, but that she was going to work on it and give it to me as soon as she can. Til then, I just have to deal with whatever the Poison Joke does to me” “Good well I made some lunch it is in the house but” Fluttershy started shifting around uncomfortably “Fluttershy? What's wrong?” Jero asked looking into Fluttershy’s blue eyes “Well Angel kinda attacked Nova” Fluttershy said Jero just sighed “Again? I don't understand what Angel's problem is with Nova. Is he OK?” Jero asked “Yes I put Angel in his quiet area” “What about Nova?” Jero asked “Oh he is just sitting on the couch with an ice pack on his eye” Fluttershy explained “I'll go see him.” _______________________________________________________________________ I sat there holding an ice pack on my eye after that little demon in a bunny suit got a good hit on me...Demon in a bunny suit now I am reminded of Frank The Bunny (for those of you who do not know that is from Donnie Darko) Still for a bunny at his size he is strong never expected that still now I am sitting on this couch holding an ice pack to my eye when I heard the door open I looked over to see Jero “Hey you ok?” Jero asked “Yeah I’m fine evil little rabbit” I said hearing a chuckle from him “He did not like me when I first came here either but trust me Angel will warm up to you” Jero said smiling at me “ I hoped he would not be like on the show. What about you Pole?” I asked seeing Jero now with a deadpanned expression “I thought I told you not to call me that anymore...” “Oh come on you know I love teasing you with that” I said now laughing “I know you like teasing me, but could you not use that? It's been such a long time and you still haven't let that go.” Jero said “Its kinda hard, but Fluttershy could hear about a certain story.” Jero’s eyes widened at the thought of me showing it to her “You wouldn't....” “You never know, I might.” I said with a evil grin instead it made me look kinda stupid “Try it and I'll use what I learned from Fluttershy like last time, remember?” Jero threatening me why I never “That is not a fair call but fine I won't tell her..say do you have your laptop?” He is good I will say last time I could not move for thirty minutes “Huh, I haven't used that in a long time, but I should. Why?” “I need to check my email and some other things” “I could lend it to you for that. Come on.” Jero then picked me up carrying me into his and Fluttershy’s room “Oh the room of fun” I said with a slight grin only to see a blush grow on his face Jero then sat me on the bed as he went to a cabinet grabbing his laptop setting it in front of me “Here you go” “Hey Jero care to give me a hoof” I said with a dumb yet witty expression as he opened the laptop typing in the password so I could get on my email when I got an idea out of the blue “Hey Jero I need some help” With the trap set he came over “What do you need help with?” Good Jero took the bait “Say cheese” I said smugly before taking a picture “What the....where did you get a camera!?” Jero half yelled “It’s mine, I brought it with me” I said laughing “That and this thing has a camera in it” Still though I think I might send this to his parents for a laugh “Say Jero did you parents change their email?” I asked innocently as possible “Let me guess you want to send that picture to my parents don’t you?” Jero asked my jaw dropped when he asked that how did he know “That depends are you going to try and stop me from it?” I know he could just pick me or stare me down which is not a fair match in my opinion “Go ahead. I missed you dude” Jero smiled at me heh I was hoping for a bit of a fight either way I hit that send button faster than he could blink after a little while I heard a knock on the door and jumped fifty feet in the air “Oh my goodness are you ok Nova” Its just Fluttershy I am just fine so why did I jump “I’m good” Not really she scared the crap out of me but I will let her think I am fine “Oh well I made dinner” “Thanks Fluttershy we will be down in a minute” Jero then looked right at me “After we wash out hooves” “Oh come on” with that I was dragged in the bathroom this is not a fair match he is stronger than me but after a round of hoof washing both Jero and myself went down stairs to the most wonderful smell in the world “Oh wow Fluttershy I smell vegetable soup” Jero said holy crap that’s what that is wow just wow I am at a loss for words I could only trot to a chair and jumped in it after a few second’s of the waiting game Fluttershy was so kind to bring me a bowl of soup well kindness is her element so it makes perfect sense “Thanks Fluttershy” I said trying to pick up my spoon it was difficult that is for sure when I finally got it I dropped it a few seconds later I heard both Jero and Fluttershy giggling “What is so funny?” “You are” Jero said as he booped my nose why you putting those hooves on my face I don’t know if they are clean or dirty still he has been here longer than me so he knows how to use spoons and stuff with out magic so I do not find it too funny “That is not funny for one I am not used to well not having hands so...yeah awkward” I was hoping that somepony would kill the awkwardness “Oh Jero I forgot Twilight had to run to Canterlot so Nova is staying here” “Even though I can take care of myself” I mumbled “I know you can take care of yourself Nova, but you’re still a colt on the outside and you might need help from time to time” “Yeah I need help learning how to keep a evil demon bunny away from me” I glared at Angel hearing an audible laugh from him “What the f-” “Nova, don’t you dare finish that word.” said Jero “What word was he going to say?” Fluttershy asked meekly “I think it would be best if you didn’t know Fluttershy” Jero replied while giving Nova a look “When I can use teleportation spells Angel will be sent to, I dunno, the Everfree.” I growled looking at that bunny “Maybe you should rename him Frank” I kept my eye’s on Angel witch is not even the correct name for that bunny I can think of so many better names than Angel _______________________________________________________________________ After a nice dinner and a bath and Fluttershy outside the door knocking every second making sure that I was ok when I had finished I grabbed a towel drying myself off I walked out of the bathroom somehow sparkling I mean like actually sparkling like the way Spike’s eyes sparkle when he sees Rarity Wow Fluttershy the shampoo and stuff had my coat sparkling” I said with a smile I mean come on where did she get it at “Oh it was from the Crystal Kingdom” I now had a derp face for one what is the crystal kingdom “What is the Crystal Kingdom?” I seriously have no clue I have heard that somewhere though I can’t remember “The Crystal Kingdom is ruled over by Princess Cadence and Shining Armor” Wait did Jero just say Twilight’s brother’s name holy crap so the rumors about seasons three were true or are true “Well come on time for all little ponies to go to bed” Fluttershy said pushing me into a bed even though I could clearly stay up longer but I will not be the one who makes the mistake of pissing off Fluttershy _______________________________________________________________________ I woke up groggily sitting up I let out a small yawn shaking the sleepiness from my head jumping onto the floor trotting into Jero and Fluttershy’s room I saw no Fluttershy but I saw a lump on her bed “Good morning Jero” I shouted only to hear him scream this made me laugh the next thing I knew I had a blanket on my head I shook it off right as the bathroom door slammed shut “You could have just said you needed to use the bathroom I would have let you go first” “I am sorry but Jero is not here right now please try your call again later” Wow just wow Jero that was funny but still that only works over the phone NOT through a door still very clever “Nice try Jero but I can tell you're in the bathroom so open up or I will blast the door down” I am giving him a fair warning “You can’t even use magic” Crap he is smart I will say that after arguing through a door Fluttershy came in the room to see what all the ruckus was about “What is going on in here?” Fluttershy asked it sounded more like she was demanding but still her house her rules “You got me Jero threw the blankets on my and took off for the bathroom” I am still wondering why he did that “I will come out if Nova promises not to laugh” I just sighed when Jero said that “Jero you know I can not do that for the life of me so come on out I won’t laugh in your face” Sometimes I think Jero is as shy or more than Fluttershy who knows I heard a click of the door when I looked it was “Jero!?” I was holding my laughter in but I felt like I was going to bust at any second I snickered “Pardon me” With that I ran out of the room cackling but still in earshot so I could hear them “Aww poor thing I guess the poison joke affected you and turned you into one of the cutest foal’s I have ever seen” Fluttershy said to Jero they do not know it but I am still laughing Jero sniffled “It also seems it has made me more sensitive” No I don’t think it has but what ever I trotted back into the room still laughing a little just then I saw Fluttershy’s eyes almost pop out of her head and now she is pacing. “Oh no oh no oh no I just remembered” Fluttershy said now freaking out dang I just remembered myself thanks a lot “What’s wrong Fluttershy” Jero asked with his new squeaky voice heh I have jokes now “Oh I just remember today Nova starts school” OH COME ON FLUTTERSHY WHY JUST WHY!? man this is so messed up I am living in a library hello books everywhere along with Twilight “Do I have to go?” I asked in a childish whining voice I do not want to go to kindergarten my pride will die a little everyday if I have to go there “Yes you do Nova” Fluttershy scolded me that is when I got one of the best ideas I will ever have I swear it is just awesome “Well I might be able to go if I had somepony I know going with me” I hinted looking at Jero “Wait do you want me to go with you?” Jero asked now realizing what I was getting at “Yes it might help me be a little braver if I had a friend” I said giving a pair of puppy dog eyes “Please Jero it would help him an awful lot” Yes Fluttershy is on my side sweet “Well I guess it would not hurt” “Thank you Jero” I said gratefully “I guess I will tell Miss Cheerilee that she will have one extra student” Fluttershy stated looking at both me and Jero “I want you too both behave yourselves while I am out” I was not listening I was too busy having a stare down with a certain evil bunny “Ready for round two I see” Angel gave me an evil glare “I will get the ice packs ready” Jero said as I lunged towards the bunny letting out a battle cry _______________________________________________________________________ Fluttershy had come back seeing me and Angel in our epic battle one blow later and both of us were on the ground not even noticing Fluttershy “Okay Angel how about a truce?” I asked in hopes he would agree which he did thank Celestia “Oh my goodness are you two okay!?” Fluttershy was now frantic rushing to our sides “You should not have been rough housing in the first place!” Now she is scolding us both Angel and myself started laughing “Sorry Fluttershy” I am not looking forward to what she is going to say “Well Miss Cheerilee said both you and Jero can come in for her afternoon kindergarten class” Fluttershy killed my pride by reminding me “Speaking of Jero where is he at?” “Right here I got trapped in the couch during Nova and Angel’s fight” Oh yeah thats right he got knocked in the couch “Help me” With that Fluttershy went and pulled him out good thing too I am feeling lazy and a little tired “So when is her afternoon class?” I asked in hopes it was not soon “It is in about four hours” Fluttershy said as I let out a yawn I guess I am still sleepy “Well how about you take a little nap before you have to go” How did she even get me on the couch all I know is that I am sleepy _______________________________________________________________________ I woke up I don’t know how long later but I was being shook and I did not care for it I lazily and groggily opened my eyes to see Fluttershy looking at me telling me ‘wake up’ “I’m up calm down Fluttershy” I am not fully awake just barely though its just enough to get her to stop shaking me if she would have kept going I would have puked “Come on lets get your mane brushed” That one made my eyes shoot open “No just no it is fine trust me I know it is on my head” Holy crap that was close I think that was an elaborate troll to wake me up for some “Good job Fluttershy that worked” Oh so you are in on this Jero he must know with me payback is no fun “Come on lets get going” Fluttershy is now nudging me out the door oh goodie today is going to be fun not really “Oh and there is going to be a surprise after school for you” “Oh yay I can not wait for my crappy new day” I know I am being sarcastic but still who cares if I run into Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon and they start crap I will practice magic for a few days come back AND I will throw them to Canterlot teleport there and throw them back to Ponyville “Come on I will be with you” Jero said a little too cheerfully I noticed he had some saddle bags on and it had his cutie mark on it that is pretty cool I will say the next thing I knew I had a pair slapped on me and with the both Jero and myself made our way to school While walking I was very tempted to run off and not go to school but I knew I would regret that decision in an instant somepony would catch me and I might get in trouble I would hate to piss off well anypony still though I gotta say it is kinda creepy being smaller than everypony it is deeply disturbing knowing that they could over power me in an instant Still I don’t think any of the ponies here would harm me or anypony for that matter well they might yell at somepony but that is all ponies would wave at both me and Jero and the occasional pony would say ‘Hi’ witch I would happily say hello to them Still the whole walk to the school was long and awfully quiet except for the chatter of ponies around us still we arrived at the school in a reasonable amount of time and I was not looking forward to the day ahead of me When we came to the front door there was magenta mare standing at the door smiling waiting for all her ‘little ponies’ to come into the school still though I don’t think Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon could come and bother me seeing as they are older now and I am in kindergarten As I walked to the door I saw Cheerilee smiling at me “You must be our new student Nova correct?” She ask and I nodded “Okay good well when class starts we can introduce you” I eyes widened at the thought but I could only nod in agreement “Well lets do this I guess” I really want to run now I mean just take off and not look back but alas it is too late the bell rang and Jero took a seat after that Cheerilee got me to stand in front of the class my heart started racing from the fear “Hello all my little ponies” Cheerilee said cheerfully wow that was not clever at all “This is our new student Nova please make him feel welcome” she smiled at gave me a nudge “Go on say something” “Hello everypony. Well my name is Nova you know this now but well long story short I live with Twilight” I heard them chattering I really hate stuff like that just doing stuff like this Cheerilee was so kind as to point me to a seat which I sat in _______________________________________________________________________ Four torturing hours of school I wanted to just I don’t know it was annoying but it is over at last and I can not get the taste of pencil out of my mouth that makes things worse “See? That was not so bad” Jero said looking at me I now own a deadpanned expression. I have never cared for school, well I guess because on Earth people sucked. Well, not Jero he was nice. “Yeah it was not so bad who are you kidding I never liked school even when they are nice I hate it” I still can not believe how much it sucked I know I sound like a broken record but it is true. “I admit, it was a bit boring consider we both already know all that, but at least it’s over now right?” “Yea-” I stopped what I was going to say seeing a pink filly along with one evil companion “You have GOT to be kidding. They are here” “Who are you...Oh..” Jero gives a small glare “Them...” “Oh look at the blank flanks.” Diamond Tiara you have made my day not really “I thought that I he-” “Let me just stop you right there because I do not care what you have to say you stuck up little brat” I know this is bold and I am scared on the inside but still I must stand my ground “Now I can be your friend or you enemy I would try and hope you make the correct choice and make me your friend. I am not one you want to get angry” Jero looked at me in shock. “Nova....” Now I hear Silver Spoon cackling like a hyena “Oh what are you going to do tell your mommy?” Silver Spoon said like a brat her true form Jero glared at both of them and stood next to me “You say we are pathetic, when you two have nothing better to do than to insult those without cutie marks yet, even if they are just in kindergarten!? I think the only two pathetic excuses for a pony I see here is you two!” The only thing I can say about Jero when you piss him off is run for the hills and don’t look back he is like a bomb when he gets mad “Now I want to you two to just leave my friend alone!” Jero stomps his hoof on the ground making a very small crack on it “Or else....” “Oh, what can you do about it.” Diamond Tiara looked right into Jero’s eyes it was silent for a moment until we all heard a southern accent telling them to leave us alone. “Jero you remember that surprise Fluttershy was speaking of?” I whispered to him Jero smiled as he recognizes the voice “I should’ve known....” “Geez Diamond Tiara, can’t you two leave ponies who do not have a cutie mark alone?” Yes, Sweetie Belle’s adorableness to the rescue! “Look Diamond, its the cutie mark cry babies” Jero and I walk over to the CMC and Jero looks at them again “Their name is the Cutie Mark Crusaders and I can tell you that they are better ponies than you two could ever be!” “That is ex cutie mark crusaders we are now recruiting for a second generation of them” WAIT, WHAT!? IS SCOOTALOO JOKING!? “Oh right. Had almost forgotten. Thanks for reminding me Scootaloo.” “Just leave or face my wrath and that is nothing you want to face” I trotted to both of them staring right into both of their eyes “If you do not leave it will be the worst mistake you ever make, do you understand?” Jero smirks a little and thinks to himself ‘Even as a colt, he still looks after himself. He really hasn’t changed a bit.’ I saw the two evil fillies run off in what I hope was terror or fear of what I might do to them it works out either way for me “So, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, AppleBloom what do you need?” I am very tempted to call her Squeaky Belle “I’m guessing that Fluttershy told you three what happened to me and asked for you to meet us here?” asked Jero “Eeyup” Wow I got to witness AppleBloom say that awesome wait where are they taking me why am I being dragged in Sweetie Belle’s magic and when did she learn magic “GAH LEMME GO WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME!?” Jero chuckles and runs after them. “You could at least wait for me!” _______________________________________________________________________ After being forcibly taken somewhere against my will I noticed a very very familiar tree house wait do they do this to all ‘recruits’ they drag them against their will and getting Sweetie Belle using her magic to take them there “You know I can walk on my own” I am still annoyed they did that “So could you be as so kind as to PUT ME DOWN” “Oops sorry about that” With that Sweetie Belle dropped me at the door “Ouch” I just don’t even know why I can hear Jero snickering behind me oh payback is going to suck big time “This is your surprise” Jero said I hope he is joking “WELCOME TO THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!” All three of them where as so kind as to yell at the same time now they need to welcome me to losing my hearing man I do not know why I am being sarcastic but it is kinda fun “Uh thanks I guess” I really do not know what to say “GAH WHAT IS THAT!?” They threw something on me oh I know in order to be a member you have to have the crap kicked out of you by them “Its you official crusader cape” Scootaloo said beaming I am very tempted to call her a chicken now “Wait I am a member of the cutie mark crusaders am I the only one?” I am curious now “Nnope you are the fourth member” AppleBloom said in her little southern accent “Yeah the other’s are uhh” Scootaloo is having a brain derp “Geez Scootaloo the other members are Dinky, Ruby Pinch, and Rumble” Wait Rumble is a member seems legit so lets see two three unicorn and one pegasus seems legit “We are waiting for the others than we can introduce you, Oh AppleBloom go and get the crusaders speech” “Ah got it ready” Applebloom stated while I am too busy being confused “This was your surprise” Jero why could you not have told me this “Also I need to get back to Fluttershy” Wait no don’t leave dammit he is gone “I really hope that Pinkie did not find out about this she has yet to throw me a you know what” I really hope they take the hint because if I say the word I know Pinkie will some how jump in front of me “Oh a welcome to Ponyville pa-” I stuffed my hoof in Sweetie Belle’s mouth fast than anypony could blink I did not want to do that but I do not want to witness a Pinkie Pie party she can scare me a little I really do not want Pinkie to know she forgot to throw me a party “Please do not say that word” I begged still though I saw a pale purple filly a murine filly and a grayish colored colt walking to the clubhouse with similar color capes to the one I am wearing “Hey look the other’s” Scootaloo said in her normal loud tone I swear though I am still frustrated they brought me here against my will but still I guess it’s not so bad “Hey Scootaloo,Sweetie Belle, AppleBloom who is the colt?” Dinky asked bouncing right up to us I thought they would have told them about me “This is Nova” AppleBloom said “Yeah he is new to the crusader” Scootaloo once again shouted “And he is living with Twilight” Sweetie Belle said _______________________________________________________________________ After a day with the new crusaders I was just plain tired I know I am staying with Fluttershy and Jero for the next few day’s I gotta say I miss Twilight already I had arrived back to as Twilight called her my ‘foalsitter’ I die a little inside when she says that still though but still Fluttershy is a nice mare Still though I can not do that everyday with out ending up having a stroke all of that running and crap I can not do it everyday still it was fun and well still though they have so much energy and I found out the answer to my question Derpy is not called Derpy here she is called by her official name Ditzy Doo so now I know that I won’t even have to ask her what her name is and act like I do not know it crap I had walked through the front door of Fluttershy’s cottage to see nopony home this is odd enough “Where is everypony?” I thought to myself this is suspicious I do not even see Angel here waiting for a third round hmmm this is creepy for one it is kinda dark nothing too much I jumped up hitting the light switch with my horn and it hurt a little but nothing compared to when it got snagged on a towel “Hello is anypony home?” I shouted still nothing but the silence and darkness I was starting to get a little scared now I never get scared still the vast cold darkness was all through the house and the silence it was too quiet the only noise that could be heard now was the occasional crack of thunder the lightning would give some light only for a second though I do not like what is going on I do not see any of Fluttershy’s animals its like the place has been abandon but this morning when I was here it was so full of life and joy and now it is filled with darkness and fear The sounds of raindrops beating on the roof and ground outside is the only thing that sounded like movement it does not help when the floorboards creak a little from the slightest movements I could not contain myself much longer I felt like I was going to explode from the fear of it all I do not know what is going on but I need to find out and soon I was hoping that somepony would be home when I got back or even leave a note if they had to leave I would have never guessed that Fluttershy would be one to not leave a note if she had to go somewhere if it was important she would have sent somepony after me I am sure of it still I need to know what is going on and now I scampered started walking only to hear another crack of thunder that was the one that knocked out the power I then started running around the house shouting “Fluttershy? Jero? where are you?” I kept going running and running I finally realized it was a futile attempt to keep looking for them they are not here I then sat on the cold floor I kept hearing something in my head just going on over and over “Do not give up keep looking this is your dream world a place you have always wanted to go” I looked around for the source of the voice I kept turning my head left and right after a while I recognized the voice it was that of my grandmother she was somehow speaking to me or just somehow I can hear her voice telling me this still though I am truly scared I just sat on the floor scared the thunder and lightning I do not understand where they went its like they left me alone and I do not know if they will come back anytime soon what am I talking about yes they will be back soon they have to come back they just have to they can’t leave me alone.........can they “This is the world I have dreamed of living in and now they have left me on my own in a thunderstorm at least it is not a big crowded party” I have what is commonly known as agoraphobia in a nutshell it means I hate being in big crowds I guess I can try to come over it but it will be hard but I am sure I can do it with the help of my friends who are not here I sniffled but I can not cry, that will show a little bit of weakness and I will NOT show weakness from abandonment they are my friend they would not abandon me I should know this by now Now let's be rational maybe Jero and Fluttershy and all of her animals had to do something that caused them to leave the house and not tell me or leave a note I heard a loud crack but this was not thunder when I opened my eyes I saw the lights on with a big banner saying ‘Welcome To Ponyville’ I cocked an eyebrow at this when I looked around I only noticed Fluttershy,Rarity,Pinkie Pie,Rainbow Dash,AppleJack, a now full grown Jero and Twilight All there I did not know what to think at the time I smiled a little I think they had been planning this for a while and I am glad they did it is a nice gesture I guess Jero must have told them about my hatred of big crowds still it was nice some cake and more than enough sugary treats that could cause me to go into a coma this is going to be fun yet suck at the same time “Well this is a small welcoming party” Twilight said looking right at me “I know it is nothing too big but I heard you hate big crowd’s” hint hint I know Jero told her that or Celestia did _______________________________________________________________________ “Wow today was great a nice party almost eating myself into a coma” I let out a small laugh “ How does Pinkie Pie do that all the time I will never know” I just got lost in my own little world it was fun today was one of the best days of my life I will say that much “Come on Nova” Twilight said shouting for my she had gotten farther ahead than I expected still I am right today was a good day yet something feels like it is missing we had arrived at the library or as I call it home in a reasonable amount of time so for fun I pulled down a random book and just started reading until I fell asleep Author's Note I hope you all enjoy the new chapter the next one will be Nova's first letter to Princess Celestia
Cut Content:Modeling Pajamas For Rarity....This Better Be Worth ItFriends,Family,Ponies By Sparknanator ____________________________________________________________________________ I stood behind a curtin while Rarity dressed me for the who knows how many times Twilight had spoken with Rarity and found Rarity was making some pajamas for colts but Rarity was not able to find any colts to model them for her that is when Twilight got the idea to volentier me to do it I got to say this sucks so far I have tried on SO many pairs and to add insult to injury they are hoofise pajamas I had tired on ones that had a celestia patteren on them and ones that had a luna patteren on here is a short list of what I have had to try on one of them had Just leave it here I have tried on about seventeen pairs of them the ones I had just tried on had bumblebees on them so far Twilight said her favorite pair where the ones with numbers on them I really hate this but thank Celestia this pair is the very last one and I have a feeling that Twilight will like these they have books on them I sighed as Rarity pulled the hood up but I REALLY hate that they are taking pictures Rarity gave me a shove I just glared at her Rarity gave me one more push “Go on darling” I groaned and went out from the curtin I heard Twilight squeal I was getting tired of doing this I was getting hot because of all the hoofsie pajamas and I know this seems like something a little kid would say but it is true we have been doing this for I think since seven in the morning and it is ten now so I can not stand this I am also happy this is the last pair I have to try on I really hope nopony else sees this “Oh my goodness Nova you look so cute” Twilight took another picture I feel like I am dying inside “Rarity may I please get a pair of these for him?” Rarity let out a giggle “Even better Twilight you can just have these” Rarity gave me a pat on the head “And thak you Nova for doing this” Rarity then levitated a lolliepop I in front of me as she had gotten that last pair of over insolated wool pajamas off my flank I grabbed the lollipop and just started to eat it I know that seems childish but still I think I have earned it Twilight laughed I looked up at them “Can I go now?” I asked Twilight just shook her head ____________________________________________________________________ Both Twilight and myself had arrived back at the library at around two in the afternoon Rarity was as so kind as to make us some lunch but that box Twilight is toting around with those freaking pajamas I swear if she makes me wear them I will jump out the first window I can reach Author's Note So everypony this was going to be a full chapter at around chapter 3 or 4 but it never made the cut so I hope you all enjoyed this little piece the new chapter should be up soon
