Scarlet’s eyes stared out the bus’s window, counting the number of telephone poles that passed by, anything to keep his mind from lingering thoughts of his old home. "Umm Crescent, do you have any other games? Twilight kinda beat this one." His eyes turned toward the fourteen year old sitting across from him, shaggy lime green hair covering his forehead, and on the rare occasion glancing into his penguin colored eyes. A purple hoodie hung loosely off of him, his jeans were a light blue that covered over his orange sneakers. His eyes traced the poor boys hands, his fingers were scratching at the arm rest in irritation. Or it could have been anticipation; he wasn't entirely sure as he blinked once or twice.

"Spike, don't bother him. He was kind enough to ride on the bus to canter lot to pick us up. Now he was kind enough to ride with us to Ponyville, so we can stay with his family for this school year so if I'm bored that's a small price to pay for his hospitality." The eldest of the two spoke with much clarity and poise as she looked at her companion. Her name was Twilight Sparkle and her brother’s name was Spike. Her hair was a mixture of purple, violet and pink. One set of bangs was set to the side. Normally people would believe it was some sort of hair dye yet this was a common occurrence in equestria. Those violet eyes spoke volumes of her apologetic tone. The seventeen year old wore a purple sweater-vest covering a white t-shirt, the violet skirt to go with her ensemble traveled easily past her knees. The crimson eyed teenager glanced at the loafers hanging off her feet.

"You have to admit it Twilight, we beat that puzzle game in about seven hours, so ask him for another."

"No, Spike. It's rude and just look at him. I doubt he's done anything since he's gotten on the bus, besides staring out the window." Her eyes turned towards their escort, who was a bit different then she imagined, but in a good way. When they had first met he greeted them and he welcomed them on the bus with open arms, joking with Spike as they boarded the bus. His scarlet eyes held joy when they first met even a jovial smile, compared to the distant look of boredom he had now. His hair was a mixture of black with white tips, most likely dyed from the way the black coloring started to take over the white dabs on each tip. He wore a black jacket covering a navy blue t-shirt, a pendant hanging loosely around his neck with a pair of goggles that were also hanging loosely around his neck. The teenager wore a pair of faded denim jeans and a faded brown pair of sneakers. Overall, he didn't look too bad. Well, in her opinion anyways. "I'm sorry about Spike. He is easily distracted." She smiled at the teen in front of her. His eyes turned towards her.

"It's fine. Really. Your brother is right. It’s kinda boring to be on this bus. I can't do anything about it though. See? I only brought one game. After all it was supposed to keep you busy till the bus ride ended." He glanced at the male. His fingers were tapping across the arm rest again in agitation. "So how about we talk about ourselves instead? Yeah that seems more appropriate since you are staying with us for a while." It was simple for the teenage. Change the subject to something about themselves until they got to Ponyville and then he'd sleep. Oh how he intended to sleep the day away. "How about you start us off and I'll finish with a bang?"

Spike looked at the teenager with penguin eyes trying to gauge the intentions of his sudden question, the only thing that was visible in those scarlet eyes was restlessness. "I'll start Twilight, my name is Spike Sparkle, I'm fourteen and I have an older sister and brother with two loving parents. I like fire; it looks pretty cool, video games, and some girls of Equestria. I dislike seeing guys hit on Twilight, people picking on me and lists. I hate those the most." His face turned towards Twilight as she gave a sheepish grin, scratching the back of her head. "So that's about it, now it’s your turn stranger."

He glanced at the teen in front of him; the anger was clear as the word stranger etched from Spike's mouth. Perhaps his good intentions weren't as well received as he originally thought. "Alright since you asked so nicely I should oblige. My name is Crescent Lulamoon. You both should know that by now at least. I have a sister and one of my parents. My hobbies are photography, keeping in shape, collecting playing card decks from foreign countries, reading and studying my grandfather's research papers. Oh and teasing my twin sister. The dislikes I have are people misinterpreting me, anyone hurting my sister or a girl in general, people insulting my family and decaf coffee is what I hate the most." He looked on at the two as they blinked momentarily at his introduction. Perhaps he was a bit too forthcoming about his personal info.

"So, what did your grandfather research? Was it on how the founding of countries back story or something involving Equestria?"

"No. It’s nothing like that. It follows what Grandpa Azure liked to research. What many people call the elements of Harmony and the magic they held." He didn't rise to the snicker coming from Spike. Crescent was used to this sort of thing, even now, many thought that his grandfather was insane, but insane or not, he brought many contributions to the understanding of equestria's founding. "Though that was a personal investment of his time, he's done a lot of other major research projects to worldwide his recent one is in Griffonia."

"So, do you believe your grandfather was right? That magic existed a long time ago and is just some forgotten relic of the past?"

"Do I look insane? My grandfather believed that magic truly existed but don't lump me into the same group as him. I want to find out about Equestria's past. If reading through countless journal entries about how magic was the catalyst to the rise of this and bordering nations, then I'll do it for that one scrap of knowledge about this country. Grandpa loved that topic but the one thing we differ on is the existence of magic." His eyes brimmed with joy as Twilight leaned towards him. "Now that I've answered those questions, can you introduce yourself Twilight?"

She backed away sheepishly for she had been so interested in his heritage she forgot about her own introduction. "Yeah, so my name is Twilight Sparkle, I have two brothers and both of my parents if you couldn't tell by Spike's introduction. I like books, all types of books actually as long as they are decently written or full of things I don't know. Books are high up on my list, my brothers and princess Celestia. What I dislike is those that flaunt themselves, superiority complexes and finally anyone who picks on spike. Oh and my goal is to be either Princess Celestia's personal assistant or a librarian that writes books in her spare time."

"So books huh? You don't seem like the secluded quiet type." His eyes still trained on Twilight, only catching a subtle glare from Spike as he stretched in his chair.

"So, how far are we away from Ponyville then?" He glanced at his sister as she smiled sheepishly, twiddling her thumbs, at the sudden confession form the stranger

"I don't know actually. But I can go ask the bus driver if you want." He ignored the glare from Spike; the thought of how long they were away from ponyville wasn't far from his mind as he looked at them both.

"Yeah, if you don't mind doing it for us that is Crescent."

"Not at all. I'm sure we’re not too far away but its better safe then sorry." His eyes left them as he finally left his seat leaving the two alone the thoughts of reuniting with his family etched in his mind clearly, as he passed the few people riding it to Ponyville.

"What was that all about, Spike?"

"What? I'm just looking out for you. That's all."

"I'm perfectly capable of handling myself. Besides, he hasn't done one thing for you to mistrust him." She looked at her younger brother as his penguin eyes seemed to relent on this particular subject. "I'm not sure if you know this, but his Grandfather was pretty famous and even Princess Celestia listened to him on certain subjects. Spike, this is a big opportunity. Sure we’re not going to Canterlot anymore and we'll only be here for a year but mom and dad said if I earn straight A's this year then I'd be backed by Canterlot University for a full scholarship. Think about it, Spike." She knew that her brother had to attend four more years of school before going to college, but this was an opportunity that she could not miss.

"Then, why do I feel like I'm being dragged along? Couldn't you have gone by yourself?"

"Mom felt that I would be safer with a familiar face and with Shining in the military and them assisting Celestia..."

"So, I was the only choice then?" He felt his sister's arms wrap around him in a hug. A silent thank you was all that was said.

"Twilight, I'll behave just for this year."

"Thanks Spike." She released him as soon as her eyes fell on their esteemed guess.

"We should be at the bus stop in about thirty minutes. Give or take the traffic but we will be there soon." Crescent smiled to himself, these two weren't as bad as he originally thought and maybe he could Spike to lighten up a bit, maybe.
