Chapter 1: The Master
Story and Plot by : ME :D
"Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my GOSH!!!" Twilight Sparkle, was galloping around the library, she was unprepared which was rare and was going insane, which was common. She kept sweeping around her library while putting away books, she was going to have a very special guest. "Spike hurry! Princess Luna is coming, we need to have this place in tip top shape before she gets here."
Spike moaned. "Twilight the place is fine, Princess Luna probably won't even care."
"She is royalty Spike."
"Well she probably doesn't even care, she probably hates royalty."
There was a knocking at the door, Spike walked towards the door, he opened it and standing at the door was a dark blue coated alicorn with a star light like flowing mane. "Hiya princess." announced Spike. Twilight's ears perked up as she heard Luna's name, she gave out a quick "eep" and quickly hid under her table.
"Twilight Sparkle." A majestic voice called out to her. "I understand from sir Spike her that you are frightened are you not?"
Twilight Sparkle appeared from under her table. "Yes princess, I am truly sorry."
"Oh Twilight Sparkle, just call me Luna, I do despise the royalty once in a while."
"Oh okay princess. I-I- mean Luna. Thank you Luna."
The 2 ponies chatted and drank tea almost all throughout Luna's night. Twilight and Luna were also reading books, any book when it came to Daring Do, to the Da Filly code, even to the Coltfather. Twilight also had an opportunity she pulled out an old dusty book, she blew off the durst, it was titled The History Of Humans.
"Luna, I wanted to discuss this book about you, I have been quite curious about what humans are, can you help me prin-eh...Luna?"
"Why I would be glad to Twilight Sparkle, though my memory is quite foggy, me and my sister were only fillies after my mother and father decided to separate."
"Wow, why did they separate?"
"Well humans were growing in an vast speed, they had a much bigger population, they were actually believe it or not the ones who created the statue of Liberfilly, the statue in Manehatten. Due to their growth rate my parents and the human leaders who they refer to as the Gods both agreed to create and have new worlds. From what I heard from my sister, They call their world Earth, they are also more advance in technology as well, though I wouldn't care much if you ask me. We even have some technology we use today, such as the train, and the airship."
"That is amazing princess, what do they look like?"
"From what I remember, they almost resemble a monkey, but they have no tail and almost no fur. They stand with two legs, and have two arms, much like a dragon but they do not fly. They also have hair like us but in less colorful colors, some have red, brown, blonde, and black hair. But that is all of what I know Twilight Sparkle."
"That's okay Luna, I think I have what I need to know."
"Well you are quite welcome Twilight Sparkle, but I do apologize but I must depart, I must go to Canterlot and get ready to lower my moon for Celestia."
"Yes I understand, safe travels Luna."
Luna and Twilight had both said their goodbyes and Luna departed for Canterlot, she sprung out her wings and took to the midnight skies as she flew towards Canterlot. She majestically flew over the fields of the Everfree forest and past the plains of Equestria. As she flew around Equestria, she saw something......strange on the ground. She landed herself on the ground and found a small shiny blue hole on the ground. "What pray tell is this? Is this some kind of portal, I think I can see through it." Luna reached her hoof out for the small portal, as soon as she made contact a bright flash appeared and as if a pegasus was pulling a prank, wind was pulling Luna into the portal, the portal expanded as she was getting closer. Luna didn't have much strength and was sucked inside the portal, she was gone.
--------------------
Crescent, your normal average humanoid guy, wasn't as normal as you might think. Crescent was a hardcore fan with Assassin's creed, he had obtained all of the costumes, including ones he paid a fortune for, and had also obtained some weapons, such as Altiar's sword, the hidden blade, as well as Connor's tomahawk. He was almost dedicated to the what they call order, he practiced parkour, he climbed the highest of heights and even dived from a scary height, he was indeed hardcore. He had always loved the night, he always practiced his parkour in the night because of 3 reasons, one he is hidden in the darkness, two he can't get in trouble, and tree he wanted to enjoy the moon up in space.
He always felt like the moon and him had a special connection, emphasis on his name being Crescent, he loved the crescent shape of the moon. He was traveling from rooftop to rooftop wearing his own version of an assassin uniform, a black and red accent hoodie with custom settings. Crescent was running along until he reached his local park, he rested on the bench and reached out for the water fountain. He walked towards the grass and rested his back on it catching a breath until he can parkour back home. Suddenly, a loud crash caught his attention, Crescent rose up and looked around, and found a massive crater and a few tumbled trees. Crescent quickly ran towards the crater, in the middle lied a dark blue pony with wings, a horn, and a blue mane. Crescent was extremely confused, he slowly walked towards the pony, he examined the body, he found a few cuts and scrapes, he took the pony and carried it back to his house. "What the hell is going on?" Crescent thought to himself.
--------------------
Luna had regained consciousness, she felt very comfortable for what she was laying on, she slowly opened her eyes and found herself on a soft bed. She looked around and what looked to be someone's home, she looked at her wing which had a few bandages and her hind leg was bandaged as well. A door inside Luna's room slowly opened, what walked inside was something really familiar to her, standing in front of her was a human, she thought she was going insane but it was all real.
"Oh your awake." the human spoke.
"Y-Yes, are you a human?"
"GUWAAA! Y-Y-YOU SPOKE!?"
"Why yes, does that frighten you?"
"Well, kinda, but it's also amazing! I can't believe it! But right now, you need some food." Crescent said as he brought out a salad, and some apple, and orange slices. "Here, this should do after being unconscious for 5 days. Names Crescent by the way, and I'm a parkourist, whats yours?
"My name is Luna, and I'm a princess."
"Ah, so Princess Luna,"
"Please just Luna."Luna interrupted.
"Alright then Luna, where are you from?"
"Equestria."
"Equestria? Well that, I could kind of believe, but will you ever go back to your own world?"
"Well If i can find that small portal, yes, but I must take a few days to recover my magic."
"Magic? Wait, What? There's magic in your world, like fairy tales or something?"
"Yes, allow me to demonstrate." Luna lit up her horn she levitated a fork and stuck in in her salad, levitating the salad in her mouth to eat." Like so."
"That's amazing."
Luna blushed, she had no idea that humans could be so fun. "Y-Yes it is. Crescent tell me, what do you do for a living?"
"Me? I do parkour shows."
"Parkour? What is this parkour?"
"It's like the ability to climb anything, to travel by heights, not flying but by climbing, I can show you outside if you want."
"But why in the dark? Don't you like the night?"
"No I don't like it," Luna heart sank when he said that. "I LOVE IT!" Crescent declared as Luna's heart grew 3 times that night, she gave a deep blush and tried to hide it from Crescent.
"You, you like my night?"
"YEA.....wait, your night? What are you the moon?"
"Well no, In Equestria, My sister Celestia and I control the Sun and Moon, she controls the sun while I control the moon. Does anyone control the sun and moon in your world?"
"Well not really, they move by themselves, it's all about like rotation and gravity, along with the atmosphere and something like that."
"Very interesting." Luna had finished her food, Crescent put away the dishes and led Luna outside.
"Alright, first thing's first we need to get to the roof." Crescent ran towards his wall and ran up the wall grabbing it's ledge and pulled himself up. Luna gazed upon him in impressiveness, nopony could ever climb like that. "That's just one of the basics of parkour. Now lend me your hand er...hoof, I'll pull you up." Luna did as he commanded she jumped up and Crescent grabbed one of her hooves, Luna had a small blush on her face, she hope Crescent didn't see that. Crescent pulled her up to his roof. "Ok, This is where the real parkour begins, see those other houses, I'm gonna travel by rooftops, as well as that two story house, I'm going to climb to it's roof, wanna watch?"
Luna nodded, Crescent stood in position he sprinted towards the edge of his house, Luna thought he was crazy as he saw Crescent jump off his house. Luna was amazed at Crescent's skill, he jumped from roof top to roof top, off enough how he rolled once he touched the roof, he had approached the two story house, he had told Luna he would reached the top. Crescent jumped off the last rooftop, he gripped at a nearby crack in the wall, he slowly climbed up grabbing anything he could get a grip on. Luna was amused at how he had such strength, she couldn't remember humans doing this. After Crescent's climbing he had reached the roof top, he stood atop the roof, he looked over to Luna and waved his hand in hello to Luna, she did the same with her hoof. Crescent traveled back all the way to Luna, as he reached his way home, he lied down on his roof. He led out a loud breather, he was almost exhausted from his training.
"Crescent, are you okay? And also, where did you learn this ability?"
"Well first of all, yes just a little tired, and second, I was inspired from a video game series I always play."
"Video games? Has human technology evolved over these years."
"What do you mean evolved?"
"Well thousands of years ago in Equestria, when I was just a filly, humans used to live in my world of Equestria, though due to their massive life span, my parents who were the rulers of Equestria and the human leaders agreed to live separately. We haven't seen any humans after thousands of years, even after my parent's deaths I would still miss the humans, until you found me."
"Wow, that's quite the story, and I sorry for your loss." Crescent drooped his head down in apology
"No it's okay, it's not your fault, at least they died in peace. I got over their death in a few thousand years. Crescent, is it true that you love the night?"
"Yep, I just love it, I can't explain why, I especially love it when a crescent moon comes out, I just feel like it's speaking out to me. I also love those stars out there, I feel like it's the heavens watching me, especially my parents and siblings."
"Oh are they..."
"Yes." He said in a flat tone. "Dead, my parents died like yours, peacefully, and my brother and sister, both in an accident, their train crashed." He muttered as his head dropped down in depression.
"Oh, I'm sorry for your loss."Luna wrapped her hoof around Crescent's neck to comfort him, she gave a small grin as she lied her head on his arm.
"No, it's okay. And thanks Luna, I appreciate it."
The two went back inside Crescent's home, he have Luna a tour around his home. "A beautiful home." Luna announced, Crescent led Luna into his guest room, he readied her a bed and room. "Crescent"
Crescent turned his head facing Luna. "Yes?"
"What is a video game?"
"Well...uh... I can try to explain it, but electronics is not really my thing, but I can try. Video games are like games controlled by small fingers. You can do almost thousands of things with just a pair of hands, there are many different games out there, horror, role playing games, first person, violent, even puzzle games. But the game I play most, is Assassin's creed."
"Assassin's Creed? is that the game that inspired you to do parkour?"
"Yes, would you like me to show you?"
"Yes that would be lovely."
Crescent led Luna into what he called a "Tribute room", it had everything an Assassin's Creed fan could imagine. It had replicas of the game's weapons like Altiar's sword and Connor's tomahawk, and of course the famous hidden blade. He even had constumes, such as the AC Brotherhood costume, Altiar's costume, Connor's costume, and his favorite, the Colonial assassin costume from AC 3. He turned on what he called an "Xbox 360" and showed Luna. She was amazed at how a video game works. Crescent showed her all kinds of Assassin's Creed games, from the first to the third. She was amazed at the what they call "Assassin's" skill, of climbing, stealth, and killing. Though Luna didn't like the killing part. After a few hours of gaming, Crescent decided to call it a night and get some sleep. Luna's leg was a little stiff so Crescent offered his help, he carried her to the guest room. Luna blushed as Crescent carried her to her room, her heart felt a beat, was she attracted to Crescent? He was everything she wanted with a stallion, kind, loving, caring, and he loved the night and the moon, but he was a human. Not only did Luna's heart beat, but Crescent's too.
Crescent lied Luna down on her bed and tucked her in. "Well, goodnight Luna, if you need anything don't hesitate to call me." Crescent immediately turned to leave but was stopped.
"Wait!" Luna barked
"Hm? What is it?"
"....Um...Nothing..." The alicorn concluded as she retreated back behind her sheets.
"Well okay then, goodnight Luna." The human said as he turned off the lights and left the room only leaving Luna sobbing behind her sheets.
What are you thinking Luna? He's just a human! There is no way that Celestia would approve of me liking him! She screamed to herself as she rested her face on the pillow and continued to sob quietly.
Crescent walked inside his tribute room as he pulled out his Iphone. He looked at the time to still find it past midnight. "Well, I don't got work tomorrow soo....." He eyeballed over to his "Tribute Room" as he walked inside and inserted Assassin's Creed II inside his console. He played for about an hour as he found it was two in the morning. Crescent quickly saved his game and turned off his Xbox. He walked down the hallway as he noticed Luna's door was peaked open. "Is Luna awake?" He whispered to himself as he looked inside, Luna was sleeping peacefully on the bed, he could see a small puddle of wet fabric on her pillow. "Is that drool? Ughh..... well can't be helped." He said to himself as he fully closed the door and walked inside his room.
He changed his clothes into something more light and comfortable as he laid back on his bed and gave a heavy sigh.
WOH! What a day.
Whad'ya mean?
First, a magical pony pops outa nowhere, she's a princess, and she can talk.
Watcha gonna do? Keep her as a pet?
No... that's not right, not even close to what I'm gonna do.
What?
I'm gonna help her go back home. He concluded with himself as he closed his eyes and fell to a slumber. Meanwhile inside of Luna's room, Luna quickly shot open as Crescent closed her door. She shun her horn as her window opened, she limped towards the window as she gazed outside, she looked at the stars which were in different constellations, and the moon, it wasn't her moon. "So is this Earth? Where everything moves by themselves?" She looked at the crescent moon and gave it a long stare, it was sleek, but not full, it was different, but not new, it was crescent, like a C. "It's different from the others, not full, but a little counts, I think I can see why Crescent loves the crescent moon." Luna concluded as she smiled at the thought, she limped back to her bed as she levitated her sheets to tuck herself in. She slowly closed her eyes as a single tear escaped her eye lids. "Do not worry sister, I am fine."
