The Carriage came to a halt and the door was opened by an orange Pegasus who was dressed head to hoof in a blue flight suit, and a dark blue flak jacket. "We're on a tight schedule, and the cadets are due back for flight practice this afternoon," Celestia took this as a hint to hurry and got out, I followed. "Rick, Shaw, Day's over you're clear to depart whenever you see fit."

"Yes Ma'am Colonal Spitfire Sir!" The two pulled the carriage off and stopped in an alley. "We're gonna grab some lunch, then head off." She looked at her watch.

"I'll join you." She turned to me and lowered her sunglasses. "Just remember I outrank Shining Armour. I'm Better,Faster,Harder, and Stronger so don't Buck with me." She growled under her breath. "I know where every one of your vital points are, and I can hit them all in four seconds flat." She poked me in the chest. "You are a civiian don't forget that Tiger." It's like the soldiers know more than who they're hired to protect. She turned and walked off to join Rick and Shaw.

"Good afternoon Princess." A beige mare with grey hair, Dammit I was on a roll, walked up.

"Tora this is Grei Mare the mayor of Ponyville, Grei Mare this is my bodyguard."

"It's a pleasure to meet you but what are you?"

"He's a Human, maybe the last one left." Celestia answered for me, though that was kind of cold.

"Oh I'm sorry to hear that," The Mayor placed a hand on my shoulder and actually gave a shit. "I don't know what I'd do If I didn't have a family to go back to." She led us inside and into her office. "Your Student Twilight Sparkle came by earlier, and I must say she's blissfully ignorant."

"How so?"

"She walked right by three of the Ponies in charge just to get to Sweet Apple Acres."

"She's Dedicated, something I prize her for."

"Now how about I get you a tour guide, while The Princess and I go through final preparations." The Mayor sat down at her desk which was very organized. "I could find everything before she came in here."

"Hi there!" Something swung down and stopped in front of my face. Instinct caught it. "Hmf, get yur han uff m face." It was another girl, pink with darker mane. I took my hand off of her mouth. "I'm Pinkie Pie I know everypony in Ponyville, Trottingham and half of Canterlot. But you're not a Pony not even from here. Your name is Tora Japanese for Tiger that's why you told her that was a cat name." As she went on and on about what she thought of me I couldn't believe she hit everything right on the head.

"That's enough Pinkie, we wouldn't want him to feel uncomfortable." Celestia interrupted the avalanche of answers to questions nobody asked. C-c-c-combo breaker.

"But he already is, look at all these knots," She disappeared behind me and my cape flew over my face. "You've been through a lot and you'd prefer not to talk about it. I hate to see anyone sad." She kneaded her hands between my shoulders. "You need a friend, Wanna be mine?"

"No." I flipped around and pull it back down. "I don't need any friends, once I finish this job I'm going to live a nice life alone."

"Oh I see, how about some lunch?" Her deep blue eyes sparkled like a lake on a clear day.

"Oh I guess." Damn why here? Why did I have to be sent to a place full of smoking hot babes. Ancestors you did this on purpose!

"I'll take what I can get. Is that a mustache?" She giggled and handed me a silver platter. "Classic," She held up a bottle.
"Disappearing" She twisted it and it turned invisible. "Reappearing Ink." She turned it again and it was back. "C'mon let's go." She tugged me out the door and through the streets. "So you're a bodyguard, any experience guarding a female body before?"

"What, of course," Well that came out of left field.

"Coming outta left field!" that was all the warning I got before I was thrown onto the ground by another girl. "I got it, you're out Scootaloo!"

"Aw man!"

"Hey Dashie,"

"Oh I thought I landed on you Pinkie Pie." Whoever she was she started bouncing on me. "What is this a rock?"

"That's Tora my new Friend Guard."

"Hehe sorry guy, that Scootaloo's got weak wings but her arms, that's another story." She flittered off of me and offered her hand. "Name's Rainbow Dash, I gotta get back to the game. Pinkie we still on for the party at the library?" Her mane was a full rainbow of color like her name. her fur was bright blue, and she wore tight hip-hugger bell bottoms and a white tank top.

"Yeah see you there."

"Sweet, lookin' forward to it." She threw the ball back to the kids, before darting off.

"Aren't libraries supposed to be quiet?"

"What kind of welcome party would it be if it were quiet I mean Booorrriiiing. Don't worry it's not for you I'm already planning something for tomorrow, I met this girl I didn't know and like I said before I know everyPony in Ponyville, Trottingham, and parts of Canterlot. And If I don't know her that means she's new and if she's new she doesn't have any friends, and if she doesn't have any friends she must be lonely. So I did some digging and found out she's living at the Library apartment, and I thought I'd have a bunch of ponies just waltz right in and wait for her with candies, cakes and pies." We came across a yellow Pegasus in a green sweater and a skirt the same color as her fur. Her mane was pale pink. She took one look at me and she hid in a bush. Finally a reaction I'm used to!

"Oh My."

"Wait here." Pinkie said before flopping on the ground and crawling to the bush. "It's okay he won't hurt you."

"B-b-but he's tall and and those eyes, and he's all covered up, there's no telling what he is."

"Big Macintosh is taller than he is, Stronger too,"

"But Macintosh doesn't have, those." It didn't take much to know she meant my feet.

"So what if he's got feet. lotsa animals you know got them,"

"What is he?" She crawled out of the bush and dusted herself off.

"He's um I wanna say a human, but there's something else thrown in there, just to mess with us." I got freakin batmare here. "I got it, he's a pussy!!!!" The frivolous attempt at an insult actually worked.

"Hey!"

"Hay is for horses, boy and you ain't."

"You win." Never challenge a genius to a battle of wits.

"What's the prize?" Pinkie asked. God damn what is wrong with them?

"I'm Fluttershy, what's your name?" The yellow one asked barely audible.

"Tora,"

"T-t-t-tiger?"

"Uh yeah is that a problem?"

"No not really, it's just never mind, we still need to rehearse."

"See you at the library?"

"Yeah, I guess." I couldn't help but think something important was on her mind, of course I shook it off, it couldn't possibly
concern me could it?

"Okie Dokie Loki, that's two down two to go."

"Two to go?"

"Well maybe three, not sure if he'll be there, I hope he is."

"Who?"

"Let's just say he's got rock hard abs and steel wits."

"?"

"Exactly." She threw her arm around my shoulder. "Wait a second." A purple Unicorn and a dragon boy ran out of a building that looked like a carousel. "There they are right on time, Spike and Twilight, running away from Rarity probably thinks she'll dye her coat a different color."

"You can do that?"

"Well duh, you can dye your hair fur is hair, just an herbal bath away."

"Uh huh."

"Or you can get sprayed, c'mon she'll like you, or maybe your coat, jacket, cape, whatever it is." Before I could say no she
picked me up and threw me over her shoulder.

"What the Hell!"

"Didn't think I was that strong did you?"

"No... maybe."

"Pinkie is Strongest there is!" Don't get on her bad side. she'd kill me. Just like Grandma. "Heeeyeayeeah Rarity! Wanna meet my new friend?"

"We're not Friends dammit!"

"Well that was strange, now may I ask your name, and where you got that fabulous enchanted armor-cloak?" The white mare asked as she adjusted her dress, which hugged her body perfectly, and stared at me with compassionate blue eyes.

"Tora and my mother made it, how did you know it's enchanted?"

"Well you can clearly see it is spider silk, infused with a tid bit of gold to give it some added stability Iron to negate minor magics plus it radiates a barrier that repels medium level spells." Wow, just wow. "I would like to meet her she has quite the handiwork."

"She passed a long time ago."

"Oh I'm terribly sorry, I would have never brought it up if I had known." Her eyes stayed the same and she apologized.

"You actually mean that?" I'm albeit surprised a complete stranger actually feels bad for me, even my family had a hard time showing their feelings, but that came with the job. The priest lifestyle kept them from being the family I needed but I learned the hard way that family isn't all it's cracked up to be.

"Why on earth would I not, it's always sad to hear about things like that."

"I don't know what I'd do if mine died." Pinkie hugged me for an almost touching moment before backing away and sighing. "I've got a few things to finish up in town, your last stop is due south, go through the gate and knock on the barn door."

"How do you know I won't just run away?"

"I know everything, and you're going to go cuz there's a guy there who can punt a log fifty yards."

"That's not so..."

"While it's rooted."

"Hard." Fifty yards after uprooting it, she has to be joking.

"Oh You mean Macintosh, he's not afraid of getting dirty doing what's right, he'd break his back to build a house for a complete stranger." A Gentle giant, maybe he could help me learn how to stay in control.

"He's got a big brain, and a bigger heart."

"For a Stallion his age he's well seasoned beyond his years."

"Okay I get the picture I'll go and meet him."

"Just don't make any sudden moves for his sister, he's a bit protective." Rarity said quietly.

"That reminds me how's your's?"

"She's difficult, I'm just glad my parents are home for the foreseeable future, but I digress my work is cut out for me when she's here, Literally." Pinkie distracted her long enough for me to slip out. For some stupid reason I followed her directions exactly before hearing a loud snap.

"Shit," It sounded like he broke bones. Screw gates parkour for the win! a hop skip and a jump later followed by a backflip and a cartwheel I found a dark red Stallion in a pair of jeans sitting on a stump. Tattooed on his back was a large green apple. He looked fine. "I wanted this for a new couch frame, What do you think about a coffee table kid?" He chuckled. "It's been nigh on to five years since I laid eyes on one of yeh." He leaned down and picked up a flower. "We have so much in common with the fields, the world is full of grass, normal everyday folk, and weeds. But every so often there sprouts a beautiful flower from a crack in the sidewalk."

"How did you know?"

"I remind you of your grandfather, or some old guy you know but never listen to, you're new here, and you lack the proper training to use your talents to their fullest. You've been battered, beaten, and broken, and tossed aside like yesterday's garbage." He read me like a book still keeping his eyes locked on the flower.

"I can beat anybody,"

"You're lying, I can tell." This guy can't be for real, his connection to the earth it's unmistakable. "Your heartbeat, your muscles, whenever somebody lies their body shows signs, I can read them. Tora Peacefang, and you can take off the hood I know what you look like." He stood and walked over to a tree. "Seems sturdy enough." He grabbed one branch and slammed his other elbow through it. He tossed it to me and whistled. A loud yip came from behind and I turned to find a little dog. "She don't bite, she likes cats."

"Is it that obvious to everyone?!"

"I Said it's been Nigh on five years since I've laid eyes on one of you, and I meant it." He ripped through more branches, as the dog yipped and pawed my leg. "I can't play with her jus throw the stick a few times and she'll bring it back, it may be idiotic but it's the most challenging sport this side of squirrel chasing."

"You've seen us before?"

"O'Course it takes a trained eye to spot them though. They're strong too, ain't they Winona?" I swear she said Yep, but I was just hearing things. The Stallion breathed deep and took the Horse fighting stance. He slammed his palm on the trunk with a grunt. and stood relaxed and rubbed his shoulder. a third of the tree slid down onto the ground. "There the new house got a couch now."

"Are you okay."

"Yup, just a splinter, now put your hood back on, my sister's coming."

"Big Macintosh! You over here!"

"Down here!"

"There you are, I was just gonna tell you I finished my chores, and I'm off to that party at the library." She stood about six feet tall, had orange fur and three apples tattooed on her right bicep. Her long blonde mane was ironically worn in a pony-tail. "My name's Applejack," She hefted her hand at me. "What's yours?" I paused for a minute before reaching out and shaking it.
"What's wrong with your arm?" She obviously noticed my bandaged hands.

"I got burned. a long time ago, I don't like wearing the scars."

"Oh I figured you were like some martial artist, y'know Kung Foal, Muay Clydesdale." Really, I expertly put on a winning poker face......that she couldn't see. "I'd love to have another sparring partner, Rainbow's strong but she tends to go overboard."

"Rainbow Dash?"

"Yeah Pinkie's pretty good too, strong, fast, but she always wins she's got some weird ninja powers or somethin'." Ninja Ponies hmm. "Well I wouldn't want to be late for the party." She sauntered off but stopped and bent over. Her awesome ass almost shot at me. She stood and whistled. "C'mon Winona!" The dog barked finally getting to play with soomeone. She laughed and ran off like a little school girl. I was snapped back to reality by a busted nose.

"What the Hell, man!"

"If you try anything I'll knock you out of Equestria and back home."

"No promises."

"Of course never make a promise you know you'll break, that in turn keeps your record clean, Smart Ass."

"Mine may be smart, but your sister's I heart."

"Five."

"Five what?"

"Five minutes or you'll be late."

"Late for wha... My Date!, how did you?"

"She came by about an hour ago."

"Gotta Run,"

"If I ever catch getting ready to pounce on my sister."

"I'll have to try harder not to get caught."

"You are just like every smooth talking Casanova that comes through here and hit on my sister."

"I'm the last one,"

"You're a constant downer huh?

"You'd be too if you've been through the shit I have."

"Good luck out there" He gripped my hand harder than a vice. "You're gonna need it." What fresh hell did I just step into?

Author's Note

Okay now its time to make a couple of things clear Tora is wearing a Cloak when he met the mayor and pinkie he was wearing it like Akihiko Sanada from the Persona 4 Arena except he has a white wife beater on,but he put it normally when he left her office,Oh and you will like what I have done with Big Macintosh,when Tora told applejack that he has burns on his hands he lied to her so that he could get off of topic,Tora also doesn't wear shoes so he wraps them just like his hands...just think rock lee when you think about his hands...Well if any of you have questions just ask away!

Also Tora has Multiple scars but the most noticible one is his "sexy nose scar" also his eyes are a bit strange he has one blue eye and one red one...thats why fluttershy was scared more description of him and his abilities will come around after a while...I also will put names up for his abilities and where they came from.

one more thing if anyone can tell me what that "Sexy nose scar" phrase is from you are awsome.. also I'm thinking about getting some new OCs into this story so if your interested please let me know!

I wonder if I have Covered everything?
