Chapter 1:A book & 2:Lets Go Inside

Chapter 1:A book

"This seems like a nice place to live," I softly said to myself.

A mint-green coloured mare came up to me and asked, "Um, sorry to bother you, but can you help me?".

"Sure. What do you need help with? I'm in no rush," I answered.

"Since you have wings, can you go to the roof of that building and get a book that I accidentally threw up there?" the mare asked.

"Okay, just let me put my saddlebags down" as I thought to myself, "How did she throw a book up there?"

I laid down my saddlebags on the ground such that I could easily pick it back up and then I flew up what seemed to be a small shop with wooden toy car - like things one would push.

I picked up the book with my hooves and came back down to the stone ground.

"So here is your book... 'Creatures of Legend: Humans?’" I said with curiosity.

"Yes, I am interested in humans. Thanks on getting the book... I’m sorry, but what is your name?" asked the mare.

"My name? My name is Draga Spir-Strong and I don't remember why but my friends back at home call me Dragacane. What's yours?" I replied.

"Lyra Heartstrings. You said your friends back home, so I’ll guess you are not from Ponyville... If you don't mind me asking, where are you from and what are in your bags?" asked Lyra.

"I don't know what you’d call it here, but I come from across the sea. I’m from a place called 'Australia', a name that other ponies seem to know as 'the land down under'. In my bags are some stuff I can sell to get some money since I have never been here before," I explained.

"So Australia... I'm sure I know somepony who has said that name before. What do you do in Australia?" asked Lyra, deep in thought.

"Well me, I lived with my parents on a farm where we grew all sorts of foods. The farm was near a small town. Life was like that until I got my cutie mark," I said, hoof pointed to my cutie mark.

"Ooh, a blue ball, what does it mean?" asked Lyra.

"I got it when I was meditating, and when I was in that 'zone' this came so I like to say it means I have a stronger….." I paused and blushed.

"What? Are you embarrassed or something? Don't worry, it’s not that big of a deal! Look, my cutie mark it a small harp called a 'lyre' and that where the name Lyra comes from," said Lyra to make me feel less embarrassed.

"So where can I find a shop to sell my unneeded stuff to, and a place I can stay?" I asked, still with a small blush.

"There’s a pawn shop nearby. Turn left, go one kilometer up, and you should see it. For a place to stay... wait, The Sleeping Hay is full - it’s only a small inn, and we don't get that many tourists coming to Ponyville - so let me think... You know what, as for thanks for helping me you can stay with me! I only need to talk to Bon Bon!" said Lyra excitedly.

"Thanks, but I only got your book, and you only just met me... and you trust me this much?" I said, voice higher with doubt..

"Well, yes it seems I do, and when you put it like that it seems things are different in the society you live in," Lyra said in a quite happy voice.

"It is. Yours is much more trusting of ponies you just met," I replied, and then added, after a bit of thinking, "Since you said that the inn was full, I would love to stay at your place."

"Yay!" Lyra shouted.

End of chapter 1

Chapter 2: Lets Go Inside

Later that day, I was out, some bits in my bags. I thought to myself, "Okay, I got some bits from selling all that stuff... let’s see. Lyra said the way to her place would be to go right, straight, straight, right, okay, maybe not that far. I'll see if I can get her something nice because letting stay at her place is so much bigger than just getting a book."

I passed by a little shop and muttered to myself, "What’s this shop... Sugarcube Corner. Sounds like a sweets store - wait, that’s it! I'll get a muffin! Everypony loves muffins."

I was about to enter when a gray pegasus walked out with saddlebags full of something. This pegasus had crossed eyes walking out - I had never seen a pony with such crossed eyes but I bet it was bound to happen one day.

I went in and ordered a chocolate muffin, and for some reason I got the last one chocolate muffin for the day even though it was only around 2:30pm - too early to run out of stock.

I got to Lyra's home and knocked on the door but a different pony answered the door.

"Hi, and you are?" asked the pony with a pink and dark blue mane

"Oh hi, is Lyra home? I'm Draga Spir-Strong and I'm guessing from what Lyra told me, you are Bon Bon," I said.

"Yes I'm Bon Bon, let me get Lyra for you," she said. Bon Bon turned and walked inside. Not more than a minute later Lyra came out the of the house.

"So you found the place... thats good! I have talked to Bon Bon and she had the same reaction as you when I told her that I asked if you wanted to stay with me.” She changed her voice a bit, imitating her friend, saying “‘But you just met the guy, are you sure you can trust him?’ but after some talking I convinced Bon Bon that you were a good guy, so you can stay in the guest room. Come on inside,” said Lyra in an upbeat voice.

"Here is the living room, over there is the kitchen, right there is my room, and right there is your room! Oh, and just so you know, Bon Bon's room is that one. Well, I hope you have a good stay and maybe I can show you around Ponyville tomorrow so if you need help with anything just ask," said Lyra, finishing quickly her impromptu tour.

"I can't thank you enough for this... oh, and before I forget here is a muffin I got you," I gave Lyra the single muffin.

"Thanks," said Lyra, happily accepting the muffin.

"I'm gonna unpack and most likely go to sleep... again, thanks Lyra," I said as I went to my temporary room.

Chapter 3:That is a unusual way of sitting

Chapter 3: That’s an Unusual Way of Sitting

I woke up, comfortable beyond belief. I could barely get up from the bed, as though I’d been glued to it. "Good gosh that was a nice sleep, the bed is so soft," I said in a sleepy, somewhat groggy voice.

Getting up, I got dressed in one of my vests and slowly headed to the kitchen, thoughts of that nice warm bed still in my head.

"Oh hi Draga! So you are up... Is common hay fine with you?" asked Lyra as she was getting herself breakfast.

"Yes, hay will be fine. By the way are there any farms or anything of similar hard work nearby?" I asked, settling myself on a chair.

"Well, off the top of my head there’s the Sweet Apple Acres, the Ponyville mines and I think there is a rock farm outside of Ponyville," answered Lyra while trying to think of more.

"Okay, tomorrow I’ll check them out, see if I can go out and get some bits," I said.

"You got tomorrow planned already and you haven't even had breakfast?” she asked, confusing me as the two weren’t quite connected. “Since that’s still tomorrow can you help me while I do some things in town today?" asked Lyra happily.

"Sure, let’s eat, I'll get my hat and then we can be off," I said with confidence and hopes that today would be a good day.

"Oh, and when walking here did you see Bon Bon?" Lyra asked, muzzle full of fresh hay.

"No, why?" I replied.

"Its not like her to go somewhere a note or tell me where she is," explained Lyra.

Around an hour before noon we were in town. "Okay, I need to do some stuff by myself. You just stay here and I'll be right back," said Lyra as she walked off.

"Well okay, I'll be here," I went over to a nearby fence and sat down with one of my rear hooves on each side of the fence.

A random stallion came up to me and said, "That is a unusual way of sitting... you were with Lyra Heartstrings, weren’t you? How do I put this... isn't she with Bon Bon?"

"Sorry, do you know her? I just got here yesterday so I don't know if she goes that way," I said with a little bit of annoyance at the implied accusations.

"Well, I have other things to do. Sorry to bother you," the stallion said, walking away.

As he left I said to myself, "You should be sorry, you jerk."

A little bit later Lyra came back and said "I know where Bon Bon was. She was just talking a long walk. Let’s just go get some food. Plus I need to tell you about the way you're sitting."

Not that much later, Lyra and I were in a restaurant. "Can I ask you a question, Lyra?" I asked.

"Sure, ask away," she answered.

"This might be a bit personal, but I was asked if you were together with Bon Bon.. oh no, don't worry I have many types of friends back home and I was asked this as well," I said, hastily trying to cover up any hint of judgment in my voice.

Lyra seemed annoyed. "I believe you when you say you were asked this but Bon Bon and I are just best friends. We’re not at that level. It saves bits to live together and like I said, we are best friends so we are okay with living together. Don't believe anyone that says we go that way," she explained Lyra, her annoyance visible. It seemed as though she’d been asked this quite enough.

"Would you like a drink?" I asked, in an effort to cover up what awkwardness my questioning had created. It just made it more awkward.

"Hahaha! You’re honest, and an idiot in a good way. I like that," said Lyra, her voice a bit flirty.

"Really? At home they only said idiot," I replied, trying not to laugh at my own expense. "By the way, earlier you said you needed to ask me about the way I was sitting... what did you need to ask?"

"Yes I did. I have two questions. How long could you sit like how you were on the fence, and can you sit in any other ways that other ponies would call odd?" Lyra asked.

"There is a lot of fencing where I lived so I just started sitting like that... I'm not sure how long ago this was but then before I knew it could keep balance. As for the second question, look at how I am sitting now," I said, a bit cheekily.

Lyra put her head to the side. "You are sitting up straight!" shouted Lyra.

"And I see you do the same but with me my vest feels different in a way I can't quite put my hoof on," I said. " I think this conversation might be better to finish at your house... do you want to go back?"

"Sure, let’s go back home," said Lyra, still inexplicably in shock.

We got back to Lyra’s place quickly. "Hey, look, it’s only about fifteen minutes before two," I pointed out. There still was a lot of day left but it had already been so eventful.

"Follow me to my room, Draga," said Lyra who seemed to have calm down.

"Well, okay...” I couldn’t exactly say no to the pony that gave me a place to stay, so I just tried to let as much of my doubt into my voice as I followed her inside her room.

Lyra locked the door and shut the blinds. “Draga, first of all, do you know anything of humans?" she asked me seriously.

"All I know of them is from stories. Humans are mythological creatures from a different universe and that’s it," I answered.

"Thanks... you can do what you want for the day now. I need to do some of my personal work and deal with personal emotions right now," she said, deep in thought as she ushered me out of her room.

"If you need me I'll be in my room," I said as the door shut in my face.

Chapter 4:Accent

Chapter 4: Accent

"WEEEEEEEEEEE, SO MUCH FUN!" I yelled while rolling around on a rotating floor.

"Drag," came a voice from nowhere and then it repeated.

"What?" – I opened my eyes slowly – "...much fun rolling," I softly said.

"Good morning!" Lyra yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Haaaaaa" – I panicked and fell out of bed right there – "Lyra is that you? What are you doing?" I question, while in a bit of pain from falling out of my bed’s warm hug.

"I wanted to make sure you’re organized for today, and you were talking in you sleep like you were being scared to death because you were yelling softly," said Lyra with a smile on her face.

"Wait, organized?" I asked in confusion "Organized for what?".

'"Did I forget to tell you I saw a pony from Sweet Apple Acres and asked if she needed help on the farm, and that you wanted work? She was happy to ask you to come over to help on the farm," said Lyra.

"Well, Sweet Apple Acres was going to be a first choice for some kind of work to keep myself occupied for today, so thanks for making it less weird for me... better than just going up and asking if they need help anyway," I said while moving my wings to check if the fall out of bed injured them.

A little later I found myself in the massive apple orchard. And I wasn’t overstating massive. "I need to find a orange, earth pony named Applejack," I thought to myself.

"Howdy-do partner, you looking for somepony?" asked an orange pony who was sitting under an apple tree.

"Hi there, have you seen a pony named Applejack?" I asked.

"That’s me, partner... I've been waiting for you." Applejack gets up and walks to me, and then began to shake my hoof up and down so violently I thought it’d fall off. "So you’re Draga. Lyra told me you were looking for some work and you have worked on a barn before," said Applejack.

"I lived on a farm until I came to Ponyville. We grew many things, some fruits and vegetables, and apples were one of the things we grew so I have done apple bucking before,” I told Applejack.

"That’s good. Let’s go to the barn and I can tell you what to do", said Applejack as she started walking. I followed her inside the barn.

"Now partner, I'll need you to keep this here wagon near me while I buck the apples off the trees into the baskets, and then you'll take the baskets, put the apples into the wagon, and I'll get the baskets and buck the next tree and we’ll keep doing that until the wagon starts getting heavy. Then you can pull the wagon and then carefully tip the apples into the big storage bin over there," explained Applejack as she pointed her hoof at a very large wooden storage bin in the barn.

"Sure. I got you," I said, but then all of a sudden I see a large, red stallion walking across the Sweet Apple Acres entrance. He seemed terrifying to get into a quarrel with. To be sure, I asked, "Who’s that? Just in case we run into each other?"

"Oh, he's my big brother, Big Macintosh. But don't you worry none, he is working on the other side of the farm and...” Applejack trailed off.

“And... what?”

“I just remembered something, sorry. Today is the last apple bucking day and by the end it gets harder than when we start because of working every day to get the apples down so when Lyra offered your help I thought it would be nice to finish off a bit easy this season," Applejack told me.I grinned. I knew the feeling. Without much more delay, we began to work.

"Okay that’s a another tree we done bucked... hey, Draga, since you said you came to Ponyville, when did you move to Ponyville, and how long have you been here?" asked Applejack.

"I’m currently staying with Lyra at her place. My place before Ponyville was over the sea in Australia, and I’ve been in Ponyville for 3 days including today," I answered.

"Only 3 days? You settled in quickly... and don't you Australians have a different accent?" asked Applejack.

"How did you know I was putting away my accent?" I asked.

"I've worked with Australians once," Applejack answered.

"Good onya for noticing my accent wasn't Australian," I said.

"Good onya?" Applejack said in confusion.

"Good for you for noticing my accent," I replied.

"Oh, well we should be finished soon and when we come back to the barn we can see if we did it before lunch," said Applejack.

Draga looks up at the sun. "It’s about 1 P.M., give or take 30 minutes," I told Applejack.

"Um, how did you take a guess from the sun?" Applejack asked.

"Just something I learnt back in Australia but being here not in Australia I can be off by half an hour," I replied.

"Well here’s a few bits so thanks for helping," said Applejack handing me a small bag.

"It was nothing." I took off my hat, put the bag in it and then put my hat back on. "So if you need help you can just ask me, and if I'm free I’ll be happy to help," I said.

"Hang on a sec partner, your hat...” She looked at her hat and then mine. "Your hat is the same as mine."

I looked back at Applejack’s hat. True, it was very, very similar. "Oh, it’s the same, but my hat originally had little corks on it, so we call it a 'cork hat'. The cork was used to ward off fly and insects like that," I explained.

"Well, thanks for helping so bye," said Applejack.

"Bye," I said back, leaving.

An hour later I walked through the front door to Lyra’s house.

"Oh, you're back already, Draga," said Lyra, lying on her back on a small mattress in the living room. Oh, why did she have to do that? Now I had to fight for control of my wings, forcing myself to keep them down. Celestia, was she cute.

I spoke in a fake accent. "Um, it was the last day of apple bucking season, and... what are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm in a thinking zone for my own hobbies," answered Lyra.

"Okay then... I need to talk to you later. I'll be in my room," I said, doing a fast power walk to my room - I’d taken to calling it my room now - and closing the door behind me.

Somehow, I kept my accent on as I spoke to myself. I was confused now. "That was unexpected... to walk inside and see a mare laying down like that... and I can't believe myself - I actually needed to try not to get a wingboner."

I laid down on my bed, arguing with myself. I don’t know why, but I was flushing. "Yes, Draga, Lyra is very cute but you just met her 3 days ago man... Oh, hay, I just don't know what to think right now," I said to myself quietly. Sighing in frustration, I closed my eyes and let myself rest.

Sometime later - I don’t know what time - was it five? Five - thirty? - I headed out of my room, a bit of my confusion cleared up. In my fake accent I called out. "Hey, Lyra!"

"Yes, Draga," Lyra replied walking to me.

"You know how ponies have accents? Well, the accent I'm talking in right now is not my real accent,"I said, and then changed my voice, speaking normally. "This is my real accent," I said hesitantly.

"What? Why would you hide your real accent? I quite like it more, and it fits your look better," said Lyra.

"Oh, thanks,” I said, a little relieved. “I did the made - up accent so everypony could understand me because I was told by somepony that some ponies here don't understand the Australian accent.”

"There might be a pony out there that can't, but I can and like I said, I like this one better," said Lyra in a way to make me feel better.

"You are so kind, Lyra... if only there were more ponies like you... but then you wouldn't be as awesome as you are now," I said.

End chapter 4

Chapter 5: I don't like rain

Chapter 5:I don't like the rain

I woke up, feeling horrible. The first thing I noticed was that my room was spinning. Rooms don’t spin. "Oh Celestia, what did I drink last night... wait, I didn't go drinking last night... so why do I feel so horrible?" I said to no one in particular, my voice weak.

I got up and sat on the side of his bed "Okay, I'm feeling sick... nothing too bad... but is there any reason for my being sick other than just my bad luck -" I couldn’t even finish my musing before I fell back on the bed. "Well, maybe there would have been something in the environment that my body isn't used to... it's that or just bad luck," I mumbled to myself.

Struggling to get up, I forced myself to the living room. I saw Lyra reading a book. "Good morning, Lyra," I called out to her.

"Oh hey,” she called back. “Drag, are you feeling well? Today feels bad... I mean, look at the clouds today. They look like they’re going to rain any second, and to top it off the Pegasus ponies forgot to make a day rain so today’s going to be a doozy," ranted Lyra.

"Well, a pony who made that mistake must be a big bludger," I replied.

"What's a 'bludger'?" asked Lyra.

"Never mind,” I said hastily, forgetting that she didn’t know all of my terms. “But since you asked how I was feeling, well, I'm feeling not too good... oh no, don’t worry, it’s just a headache and a cold. Nothing bad, it'll mostly be fine later today," I said.

"Are you sure you'll be okay? Do you want water or anything?" asked Lyra. I could tell she was concerned, and that made me feel strange. I had to fight to keep my wings down again.

"No thanks, I'm fine... What are you reading there?" I asked, before she could feel more worried.

"Oh, this? It’s just an adventure story, nothing that special about it," Lyra said.

"Really? So it’s just another stallion and some treasure in a forest, desert or island in the middle of nowhere?" I asked with very little enthusiasm.

"Forest in an island in the middle of nowhere, and yes, looking for treasure because some family members get ponynapped." She shut the book. "I know, how very original," Lyra said sarcastically.

"I'll just get some fresh air before it rains. I'll be fine. It's about 10am, I'll be back in about half an hour," I replied, a bit abruptly, as I began walking to the front door. I left then, wandering about for some time. I estimated that half an hour had passed soon enough, and I headed back. Thank Ponyville for being a small place.

"Hi Lyra, I'm back," I called out.

"Sorry, Lyra left to get 'something', she didn't tell me what it was she was getting," said Bon Bon, who I noticed was reading the same book Lyra was reading earlier.

"Thanks, Bon-Bon," I replied.

"What have you and Lyra been getting up to?" Bon-Bon asked.

"All I have done is help her around town," I answered Bon-Bon, perhaps a bit defensively.

"I'm back!" called out Lyra, floating a bag near her.

"What do you have there?" Bon-Bon asked.

"GLOVES!" Lyra shouted in excitement.

"Why do you need gloves?" I asked Lyra.

"I just want to have some," she responded, still in excitement.

"Well, if you mares need me I'll in my room," I said while I noticed Bon-Bon rolling her eyes with a smile on her face.

Later, at least an hour past noon, - I guessed from the sun out the window - I heard a voice out my door. "Hey, Draga, do you want anything to eat?" asked Lyra.

"Yeah, I'll come out and eat a bit," I said.

"That was good hay," I said calmly with my hoof on my stomach. It was. The meal was just great.

"Um, Draga... so far you seem to be a perfectly nice stallion. Why did you want to move from your home and start fresh in Ponyville?" Lyra asked.

"Well, if you want to know the bad side of me, I don't see why I should hide it from you," I said. I couldn't keep secrets - not from her. I took a deep breath and began to belittle myself.

"I am quite cynical, I'm not the smartest stallion around, oh but who is? With all these experts on certain things around... oh there you have me being cynical! I came here to Ponyville because I just wanted to, as you said, start fresh," I said. It took me a bit of time to regain my breath in full.

"I need to go out, I noticed we're out of bananas earlier when I when I was getting the hay," said Lyra suddenly getting out of her seat.

"Are you sure? It hasn't started raining yet so it could start any second," I questioned.

"If it hasn't started yet, surely I would be home before it starts to. What, do you want to come?" teased Lyra.

"Not much to do right now, so okay I guess," I said.

We left the house and headed straight to the market. It didn't take us long to get there - thank Ponyville for being so small - but then once we'd gotten the bananas, it began to rain. For a moment I thought the bananas were some sort of switch to turn on the rain, but I kicked that thought out. "Well, shit, I don't like the rain," I moaned to myself.

"Not many ponies do," said Lyra while taking the bananas. The rain, although strong to begin with, only got more and more powerful.

"Gosh did the Pegasus forget to make a day rain, this rain is really coming down," said Lyra.

Right then and there I took off my hat, put it on her, and put my wing around her. "I don't want you to get too wet" I said with a smile on my face. We headed back home - when did I start thinking of Lyra’s house as home..? - and luckily the trip was short. Again, I cannot say it enough - thank you Ponyville for being small.

"Thanks, Draga," she said once we were at the door. And then she kissed me on the cheek before walking inside.

Oh, there it was again. I blushed, and had to fight harder than ever to retain control of my wings. A battle I was losing. The battle for control of my voice I lost already. "I - I b - b - better try to dry myself a little," I said, stuttering. Luckily she was inside already. Shaking my head, I dried myself and headed inside.

"So, Lyra why did you need to go out and get just... bananas?" I asked. It was weird, the way she suddenly stood up and announced it like it was normal. Based on her reactions, I guessed this was fairly normal.

"I like to have banana smoothies," Lyra answered.

"You must love your banana smoothies to go out and risk rain like that," I said.

"Yes. Yes I do," she joyfully said.

"Hopefully it won't rain tomorrow. Like I said earlier, I don't like the rain," I said.

"Me too, Draga," Lyra said back.

"So...” I fidgeted a bit. Celestia, why was that little thing outside the door stuck in my head? “Do you have anything else you were going to do today?" I asked.

"Maybe finish that book I was reading, but other than that, no," Lyra responded.

"In that case I'll see if I can take a nap," I said as I started walking to my room.

End chapter 5

Chapter 6: Reipu

Chapter 6: Reipu

It has been 5 days since helping Applejack and have learnt that Bon Bon owns a candy store and Lyra works there with her. I have been helping them by doing errands like getting supplies for making some of the sweets and today after work I put my hat in my room and went flying. It is about 3:30pm "The mountain makes the sunsets look like I'm laying on my side, wait sunset, where is the town centre clock, Lyra wanted help with getting ingredients for, Bon Bon's Birthday cake." I squinted to see the town clock "3:30... SHIT I NEED TO GET TO HOME NOW," I yelled as I started flying as fast as I could.

I got home with Lyra waiting for me at the front door. "Okay, I'm here," I said as I landed while panting.

"That was some fast flying, you were really trying to get here on time," Lyra said a bit amazed at how fast I flew.

"I know that I'm late, I'm not the perfect stallion and we can leave without my hat, I don't need it," I replied still panting.

"Well, okay lets go," Lyra said back a bit unsure if I was okay.

After a bit of walking to the stores I asked "Um, Lyra you know my talent is not baking or anything to do with cakes right... so why do you want me to come."

"Oh, you know it is starting to get late and maybe I like spending time with you," Lyra said getting quite near the end of the sentence and blushed a bit.

I turned my head away as I also was blushing a bit.

Soon after Lyra looked at my mane and asked "By the way I have never seen your mane messy."

"My parents say when my mane is like this it looks like a mare could have it," I replied.

Lyra giggled "I'll tell you the truth that your mane don't look like a mane for a mare,"

“It was only until I planned on coming here I started really cleaning up my mane,” I was quick to add on.

It was about 4:10 pm, Lyra and I were leaving the store while she was asking "You sure she will like strawberries on the cake?".

"Am I the mare that is her best friend, no I'm not and from what I can gather from growing up with two sisters is that mares like strawberries and you can use your magic to dip the strawberries in melted chocolate if needed," I said reassuringly.

Lyra looked at a street side clock. "Um, Drag, we need to get back home now we stayed at the shop for too long." Lyra points her hoof down a backstreet "We’ll need to go down there."

I looked at the dark backstreet "Are you sure about that, Lyra, will it get us home faster and is it safe?".

Lyra was quick to answer me "I have no idea if it is safe but I do know that if we take that way we will get home before, Bon Bon,"

"Well... okay," I replied concerned with the decision.

We were walking through the backstreet and then I thought to myself "It quite dark here, you would think there would be more light."

Out of hiding two ponies came out and tackled me then one took one big punch to my stomach.

I let out a small grunt of pain that grabbed the attention of Lyra to turn around and then the two ponies who were stallions pinned me up a wall with one on my top legs and the other on my bottom legs.

Lyra gasped and let out my name with shock "DRAGA."

Lyra was yet to notice but yet another stallion appeared but he was behind her and in a tuxedo "I wouldn't say anything so loud if I was you."

Lyra was terrified as she slowly turned around and whimpered "Who are you and what do you want?".

The stallion didn’t listen to her and put his right hoof on her cheek "What a fine, young, unicorn, mare we have here, you just call me Reipu".

"YOU GET AWAY FROM HER," I yelled.

Reipu looked at me with a smug look "Don't think I have forgotten you, boys show this basted how we treat stallions like him."

The stallion on my top legs took his left hoof and punch me in the face two times.

I gave a smug smile back. "If you think that is going to put me down… you are some weak cunts," I said.

Reipu looks angry and with Lyra shaking in fear "So you think you the tough guy, boys don't stop until I see him crying."

The stallion on my top legs pulled his leg back for another punch but with all my power focused in my right leg and hoof I punched the stallion in the face and a blue fire blasted from my hoofs on impact. The punch pushed the stallion back to land on the ground on his back but before he landed I punch the other stallion on my bottom legs in the face with my left hoof and with him not putting much pressure on my legs I pulled my right bottom leg and kicked him in the face, both of them were unconscious.

Both Lyra and Reipu gasped at the blue fire from the punch and the speed of my movement.

"Those morons can't even take one punch but now it looks like I will have to do this myself," said Reipu as he started charging at me.

I stood on just my hind legs and put my top hoofs 10 centimetres(4 inches) apart and then a small growing red fireball formed in the middle of the gap and when Reipu got too close for him to get away I pulled my right hoof and made a uppercut punch with the fireball hitting Reipu in-between the front legs.

Reipu flew 2.5 meters (98.5 inches) up into the air and soon landed flat on the ground also unconscious.

Everything is going dark, I can't keep conscious.

End chapter 6

Chapter 7: Chakra

Chapter 7: Chakra

I woke up on my back and slowly opening my eyes but I was surrounded by shelves of books. I tried moving my body to the right. “Where am,” I stopped with a grunt with a not very painful but sudden shock of pain coming from my stomach and then I went straight back onto my back .

“Oh, Draga you’re awake,” said a surprised voice of a mare coming from my left. It was Lyra and all of a sudden she launched herself at me, consequently landing on me.

There was a small bit of pain but nothing to react anything to. “Um where am I?” I asked.

“You’re at one of my friends place, Twilight Sparkle is her name,” Lyra answered.

My eyes shot wide open. “Wait, Twilight Sparkle, you mean Princess Twilight Sparkle?” I was quick to ask.

“If you want to call me that,” Said a mare who just entered in the room.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was in the home of Princess Twilight Sparkle. She teleported to the foot of the bed I was in.

“Please just call me Twilight,” Twilight changed her facial expression to a cheeky face and giggled. “and you two have already said good morning to each other or you two need to get a room.”

“What?” I said in confusion since Lyra wasn’t my marefriend.

Since Lyra was still laying on me I felt her muscles tighten up. “There is no need to joke around Twilight,” Lyra said.

With the question still in my mind I asked. “Um, Twilight may I ask why I am here?”

Twilight focused on me and took a breath. “Sure, Lyra brought you here told me what happened and the part that interested me the most was when you hit one of the stallions and she said,” Twilight took another breath. ‘A type of blue flame bursted when Draga hit him,” said Twilight quoting Lyra also poorly imitating her voice.

My face went into complete shock, I know exactly what they are talking about.

“You’re a pegasus, the only type of magic you should have is to be able to be on clouds and from your face you know what I’m talking about,” Twilight said.

I looked down. “Yes, yes I do…. Lyra can you please get off me?”

Lyra seemed a bit confused from what was happening. “Um, sure,” Lyra said as she gets off the bed.

I got the bed sheet off me and pointed to my cutie mark. “Cutie marks shows the reason for being alive but mine shows an ability.” I looked at both Lyra and Twilight. “I don’t expect you two to know but do you two know about an energy called ‘Chakra’?” I asked.

Lyra and Twilight looked at each other then Twilight look at me and said. “No, let me get something to write with.”

After Twilight got a pencil and paper to write with the girls were staring at me ready to take the information I was going to give them. “Well from very old books I have read, the energy I call ‘chakra’ is an energy I have but when I say I have it I mean I have the ability to use to use my large amount chakra, we all have very small amounts of chakra, this is where my cutie mark comes in, my ability is to use my chakra to do things like increase my strength, speed and a type of magic,” I explained.

Twilight is writing quite fast on a piece of paper. “Okay, Draga, you have told me that Chakra is an energy and that you can use it but what is Chakra?” Twilight asked looking at me like she is looking into my soul.

“Well you can think of chakra as like a energy of life, with no chakra you die, but really I am the only one that I know runs that risk. If I was to use a lot of chakra I would be exhausted and need to sleep or do something that gives me energy to get chakra back. Chakra can also be made from focusing spiritual energy and physical energy but that would make me exhausted. Spiritual energy you can train by meditating or practicing focusing chakra and physical energy you train by just training you body, like running.” I explained.

Twilight is still writing down quite fast and Lyra I think is just able to understand what I’m saying, I don’t blame her I took me quite some time to under all of this.

Twilight stopped writing and then said. “One last thing, Draga, can you use chakra to make things levitate like unicorns?”

“Not as far as I know of,” I replied.

Twilight put the paper on a desk using her magic. “Well that is I need to know for now.” Twilight looks at Lyra. “Just asking Lyra, were you able to understand everything?”

“Um, yes,” said Lyra a bit hesitantly, I do wonder if she actually understands.

Twilight put her hoof to her chin and was in deep thought and after a bit of time she said to me. “Out of all the books I have read talking about energy, I don’t remember ever coming across what you are talking about.”

“You have a chance of finding something from book about the life before harmony in our world, chakra was used by groups or clans of ponies who lived off fighting by taking missions for money, until harmony left them with no work and next to nopony needed to use chakra then they went to living normal lives,” I said quite calmly .

Twilight nodded at me, started walking out and said. “I will take a look at some books and you two can go out and enjoy today if you want”.

Lyra walked close to me and asked. “So what missions do you think the pony groups did?”

“I guess guard duty to assassinations, this was chaotic times,” I answered.

I slowly was turning my body to get out of the bed I was in and asked Lyra a bit concerned voice. “Does, Bon Bon know about you and I being here?”

“I sent a pony out to tell her, you wouldn’t know her,” she answered but was quick to add “And sorry I didn’t ask this sooner but are you in any pain and do you remember what happened last night?”

I was out of bed and on my hoofs. “Don’t worry I’m not in any relevant amounts of pain and I do remember what happened, that stallion that called himself ‘Reipu’. It was obvious what was going to happen if everything went his way,” I said with my anger clearly showing with the tone of my voice and facial expression.

Lyra moved her legs closer to her body and said. “He has been captured by the police and he said that ‘Reipu’ means in an ancient language,” It was clear that she was scared as she took a deep breath. “Rape,” Her head went down.

It was the same thing that I was thinking was going to happen if Reipu got his way. I wanted help and at least try comfort her, finding out that you were almost raped wouldn’t of been the best feeling. I walked over to her and said “Don’t worry I’ll make sure nopony will hurt you.”

Lyra was still looking at the ground when she said. “Thanks Drag.”

Before I could've think of something to say she kissed me. I lost the battle, my wings shot up and my face went deep red.

After she came off me I was still in shock and she very worriedly said. “Sorry if you don’t like me but ……. your wings.”

I put my hoof under her chin and both of us were looking deep into each others eyes. “What I feel is the opposite of not liking you,” I said.

“WHAT!” yelled somepony.

Both Lyra and I look at the room entrance of the room.

End of chapter 7

Chapter 8: Quiche

Chapter 8: Quiche

“WHAT!” yelled somepony.

Both Lyra and I look at the entrance of the room while both of our faces turned deep red.

Correction ‘some-dragon.’ Wait a dragon, “Um, is that a… dragon?” I asked Lyra.

Before Lyra said anything the small purple thing said in a shocked tone, “Yes, I’m a dragon, and you two…”

“What is happening, Spike,” Shouted Twilight running to the dragon, who I now assume is named, Spike

“What was that loud ‘what’,” sounded a voice, that was getting closer and I could identify it was Bon Bon’s voice.

“These two were kissing,” said Spike

“Lyra and, Draga, kissing?!” Bon bon said surprised as she was next to Spike.

Both Lyra and I look away at the ground in embarrassment.

Lyra moved her head back up and look that Bon Bon, Twilight and Spike, “Well, um…. lots of things have been happening,” said Lyra nervously.

Bon Bon took a step forward, “Look, Lyra…. I don’t have anything against this, it’s nice that you can find happiness in with being with a stallion. I came over to see if you and Draga were okay and I seem both of you are good so I’ll be going to the store.” Bon Bon went to the door quite quickly, just like you walk onto something you weren't supposed to find out, what is understandable.

“Yeah…. I think, Lyra and I should go, so where is my hat, Twilight? I asked.

“Oh, your hat is at the front door and you might want your vest to.” Twilight answered.

“Okay…. wait,” I looked at by body to see that even though my huge talk about chakra I never noticed that I didn’t have my vest on, “Um…. why did you two take my vest off?”

“It’s easier to see if you if you weren’t hurt to badly if you didn’t have your vest on,” replied Twilight curious if I was trying to get at something.

I went to the front door and put my vest and hat on and when I was at the front door I looked back to see Twilight say something into Lyra’s ear and when giggled, what ever she said it made Lyra put on a surprised face and then playfully push Twilight.

Lyra started walking to the front door and said to Twilight, “Bye Twi, thanks for this you cheeky mare.”

We left Twilight’s home what was a tree, “Oh, that’s a tree, I just thought it was fancy designing inside.” I said in amazement at the sight of a tree home.

Lyra completely ignoring me said, “It’s about 11:30 in the morning.”

“Um, okay, is there something on?” I asked.

Lyra looked at me with a smile, “No, just saying how the store won't be that late opening.”

I raised an eyebrow in confusion to her meaningless response, of course if Bon Bon checked up on Lyra and I she would need get to work late or leave the store alone for a bit.

The streets were not very busy nevertheless Lyra and I started walking to work and even though I’m terrible at small talk I decided to try to break the silence, “Yeah, remember when we first met and you asked me what my mark ment and I couldn't tell you, well you have to admit that just saying my talent is using an next to unknown energy isn’t something ponies would take you seriously about.”

Thank Celestia that that came out of my mouth better than expected but Lyra looked at me and said “And my talent is playing an instrument but my hobby, what I love doing is learning about creatures that are known as just a ponytale and wanting to know so much that you get excluded at school.”

“When I was very young I got called a freak because of my ability,” I took a breath to make a stupid voice. “You can’t do magic, you’re a pegasus, you freak,” I tipped my head a bit. “and it only gets worse as you get older also when some ponies know what to do with their lives, I don’t.” Painful memories come back to me…. of me sitting under a tree at the back of the school watching all the others play hoofball, tag or even just rolling a kickball around with each other, everypony was having a great time but me and there would be the times that some assholes world come to poke fun at me.

Lyra looked up into the sky, “Not many ponies know the feeling of lonyness but my lonyness ended when in the third last year of school when the one pony wanted to become friends.”

I was at the break of bursting into tears and even with all my might one tear leaked from my eyes.

Lyra leaned up against me and said “There is no reason to cry, that is the past now.”

Still trying to keep my self in order, “Years of loneliness, sorrow and pain…. but like you said thats the past,” I said taking a deep breath.

The rest of the walk was quite so good job me on making the walk more lively but when we got to work I needed to go to make a delivery to a Miss Pie, maybe she makes pies for a living but why would she need an order of ‘Bon Bon’s famous bon bons’ that fills two small saddlebags and why was she at that bakery ‘Sugarcube corner’?

Even with those questions in my head I went off to Sugarcube. To not damage the bon bons I walked not to fast and during the walk there was a pegasus flying quite fast and also a bit to close the the ground, he or she also had a rainbow trail behind him or her, I’ve never seen a pegasus with a rainbow trail before.

I got to Sugarcube corner without any problems thankfully and I wanted wanted to be professional so I went up to the counter so ask for Miss Pie, “Hi, I’m looking for Miss Pie.”

The mare behind the counter said “Oh, you want Pinkie,” and then she turned around and called out “Pinkie there is a stillion here for you.” That can be so wrong out of context.

A young pink mare came running down to me, looked at me, took a big gasp and the said at a record speed “Ooooo I haven’t seen you before, what do you need on this super duper day.”

“Uh, I’m Draga and I’m here to deliver some of Bon Bon’s famous bon bons,” I replied just able to keep up with what Pinkie said.

“YAY, the bon bons ares here, follow me,” said Pinkie then she started running up some stairs behind the counter.

I followed Pinkie up the stairs, down a hallway and into a room filled with party supplies. I was going to ask Pinkie what the party supplies for but I was stopped by Pinkie going up in my face saying, “Can you put the bon bons into the bowls on the table, these bon bons will almost be sweet as, Rarity,” assuming I knew who Rarity was.

When I started putting the bon bons in the bowl I noticed that they were a mix of purple, white and some blue.

“Those look just like, Rarity colours,” went Pinkie who out of nowhere was next to me and was still just assuming I knew who Rarity was.

Even though I still wanted to be professional in this delivery I needed to know who Rarity was, “So is, Rarity a friend of yours?” I asked.

“Well duh, everypony in Ponyville is a friend of, Pinkie, oh how long have you been in Ponyville?” said Pinkie in her energetic manner.

I had to think about my answer, “Let me think…. today would be my 8th day in Ponyville but how did…”

Pinkie interrupted me by hitting my hat off, putting a party hat on me, popping a party popper and shouted “HAPPY 8TH DAY IN PONYVILLE!”

I was shocked and confused of why she did that and if it was necessary to knock my hat off, “Thanks but how did you know I wasn’t from Ponyville.”

“Silly you, I said everypony in Ponyville was my friend and it’s only new ponies I haven't met before are always new to town” said Pinkie and I’m wondering if she is always this energetic.

I didn’t really wanted anymore confusing things to happen so I need to think of something something that isn’t a whole lie but will still get me back to the shop. “Um, sorry, Pinkie, I think that I should get going, never know if new things need to be done at the shop, so maybe I should fly fast if I want to get that work done,” I told Pinkie as I picked up my hat.

“Aw, work always gets in the way of fun,” said Pinkie a bit sad.

“Yes it does,” I said while making good haste to the door out.

Not too long I was back at the store the only noteworthy thing happening was a small chat on local deliveries being more frequent since I can make the deliveries and the girls still be at the store. My view was that it can work and it can keep me fit.

We got home after Bon Bon decided she needed to get something for the Spinach Quiche she said she was going to make. I went into my room because my feathers needed preening. I noticed that I needed to do something about the feathers that get molted because right now I’m just putting them in a bin in the corner of my room.

Later Bon Bon called out that the Quiche was done. I went out to see what Lyra was helping cut the Quiche with her magic, Bon Bon getting plates and then asking me to get the utensils which I followed.

When we were eating at the round table I asked Lyra, “what do you do to use magic?” and “what does it feel like to use magic?”

You could tell by the look on her face she was thinking of a way to put it. “Focus on what you want to happen and a bit of effort,” Lyra came up with.

Bon Bon then added “If you are going to ask that Draga, what does it feel like to use your wings?”

“Well let me think…. you can put it like having legs on the side of you if you can imagine having extra limbs,” I answered Bon Bon.

Right after finishing eating a good Quiche and me thinking that the question I was worrying about wouldn’t come up Bon Bon asked that question, “So earlier today…. you two?” she asked while pointing both her hoofs at each other overly meaning ‘together’.

I just let out a long “Um,” not knowing how to answer.

Lyra thankfully had the answer of, “I guess so,” what is still a better answer than my ‘um’

Both of the girls looked at me. I guess that they wanted a confirmation answer from me. “Looks like we are.”

Lyra gave a small smile to me

“Hope for the best for you two,” Bon Bon said calm and happy mixed as she go up put her plate in the sink and went to her room.

Despite my previous effort in breaking silence I tried it again, “So did you help make the Quiche?”

“Yeah, magic does help with cooking…. you know levitation,” Lyra said.

“Levitation would help with many thing, let me take your plate i’ll clean up,” I said.

“If you really want to,” Lyra said relaxed, kissing me on the cheek then going to her room.

Took the plates the sink and started cleaning the plates and then I said to myself “This was a very crazy day of many emotions.”

End of chapter 8

Chapter 10: I do look hot

Chapter 10: I do look hot

“YOU NEED TO STAY CALM!” Twilight yelled into my face as she had me pinned to the wooden floor.

“I AM STAYING CALM!” I yelled back frightened.

I rolled my new body right putting Twilight on the floor and asked, “Is this a transformation spell, so when you stop using the spell I’ll be back to normal?”

Twilight got up and said, “I've already stopped casting any magic.”

I also got up onto my hooves and asked Twilight, “So what does this mean, that scroll casts a perfect gender transformation spell?”

“With normal magic it’s shouldn't be possible to do a perfect gender transformation but if that scroll has casted such a spell you should be biologically female,” said Twilight.

“Wait, biologically female, so you are saying I could become pregnant?” I asked Twilight very concerned.

“If you ever so choose so, yes,” Answered Twilight with an understandably concerned face.

“Don’t worry, I don’t have any plans on getting pregnant,” I was quick to say.

“Can you stay here for a bit I need to get some things,” said Twilight, then she starting move at a fast pace to some stairs and when down to her basement.

With Twilight down stairs I looked back at the mirror checking myself out, “I do have to say, I do look hot,” my mane went down my neck, my eyes shined, I was a bit smaller and less bulky but I am a mare now but what was a concern to me was that my tail didn’t change. Did the spell found my tail girly?

I did some spins still looking at myself in the mirror but then I heard Twilight coming up the stairs and she was levitating a metal looking rod next to her, “So…. what you got there Twilight?” I asked Twilight nervously.

“This is a sensor to see if there is a magic field around you indicating a transformation spell also including to see if you are currently biologically female and if you feel uncomfortable during the test, tell me,” said Twilight.

Uncomfortable? Now I am nervous and curious what she is going to do with that sensor.

I gave a small nod then Twilight started waving that thing around me and I noticed something, I used to be taller than Twilight but now she is like 1cm taller tha…. TWILIGHT JUST LIFTED MY TAIL UP.

“Um, what are you doing back there Twilight?” I asked, I’m now very concerned what was happening.

“Checking your flanks,” Answered Twilight.

Soon Twilight was done with her full body inspection of me and she look me dead in the eyes and said, “You are a biologically a mare and your mane reminds me of a friend’s mane, we call her, Rainbow”.

“Okay my mane looks amazing, now can we now change me back to normal?” I asked.

“We can not change you back right now, the scroll is in a cooldown phase, indicated by the pulsing light coming from it and that is implying it can change you back,” answered Twilight.

I looked over at the scroll, it was making a pulsing, white glow.

I looked back at Twilight “Okay, I need to go home, tell Lyra and Bon Bon what has happen and then go drinking or something,” I said while I made my way to the Twilight’s front door.

“You a doing very well considering you have just changed genders,” Twilight said.

I had the door open when I looked at Twilight and said, “Trust me, whatever mental barriers are keeping in check are so close to breaking, anything could make me fall to the ground and start crying.”

On the walk back home I noticed that walking felt a bit different and my vest is now too large for me, but at least my hat is still okay to wear but the big problem is how will I tell the situation Lyra and Bon Bon.

I got home and was about to knock on the front door but Lyra’s called out behind me, “Hello, Draga.”

I turned around to see Lyra close to me and when she saw me her pupils went so small.

I turned my body half way, pointed to my cutie mark and exclaimed, “See it’s me and I can explain everything!”

After going inside with Lyra, I got both the girls on the sofa and told them what happened today for me.

“So you were researching your energy with, Twilight and after getting away from, Pinkie pie you went back to Twilight and she had an ancient scroll you tested with her and you are a mare and you don't know when or if you can change back?” asked Bon Bon.

“Yes, Twilight told me it was a very stupid idea but I insisted on trying it out, if you want me I'll be laying in my room” I said letting a sigh at the end.

I was laying belly down on my bed and soon Lyra came into my room from my right and stood next to me, “I’m sure there will be something to change you back,” she said.

I looked into Lyra’s golden, beautiful eyes, “Right now I’m a mare, there is no stallion in me,” then a thought crosses my mind that finished off the broken mental walls and I started crying a bit and I went into the fetal position, “I’m not sure how you and me can work out if I’m stuck like this.”

As I finished that last sentence Lyra rubbed my side and wings, “Shhh, you are still the stallion I met and the one that saved me, if you really want to talk about our relationship you can say this is just a small test, now come to my room, I can brush your mane.”

I could tell that I’m still a stallion in the head for now since the idea of having my mane brushed wasn't the most appealing thing for me right now.

I was sitting in Lyra’s room as she brushed my mane and I seemed that she only wanted to talk to me, “So, Draga I have been wondering if you have ever been in a relationship before me.”

Is it easier for mares to talk about these things to other mare because she has never asked anything like this before, “No, the mares from my old home stayed far from me, like if my chakra powers was a curse but in some cases I can’t blame them.”

“What do you mean by that?” Lyra asked.

“A pony can only talk so much shit from bullies before violent outbursts happen and those bullies were the ones to start my fire,” I answered.

“‘Start my fire’ you mean you have been able to be the fireball in you hoofs thing for a long time,” said Lyra.

“Nope, that one I have never had done successfully before, what I'm talking about is taking a deep breath and blowing a massive amount of fire and don’t worry nopony has died,” I said.

“Wow, so you can do some strong stuff with fire, you'll need to show me that and with mares, I’m your first,” said Lyra.

I chuckled a small bit at the last part of Lyra’s sentence. I have a dirty mind.

“If you are going to ask me that question, have you been with a pony?” I asked.

“Nothing serious, in school I had a crush on one boy named, Emerald, and I was with unicorn called, Script Notes for about 10 minutes,” said Lyra tapping her chin as she thought.

“Hm, what was with, Script only lasting 10 minutes?” I asked.

“It wasn't long after I finished school and while looking for a seat to eat at a cafe and, Script offered a seat next to him and talking and having a good laugh but then he told me he was going to Manehattan working in theatre,” Lyra explained.

“Going back a bit you said ‘boy’, so you are on the general side of the ‘proper’ versus ‘general’ name debate, I'm in between really, I was taught to be more formal or ‘proper’ and use ‘mare’, ‘stallion’ but I don't really set on one and just say the one that is easiest for the situation,” I said.

“I think most ponies are mixed on what they say like you, same with me,” said Lyra.

“Hm, I was planning to maybe going to for a drink and find out why you ponies like apple cider so much but this is nice,” I said.

“And you won't be in hell next morning, if you go cider tasting, tell me that you are, who doesn't love some cider,” said Lyra.

End of chapter 10

Chapter 9: HELP ME, I’M BEING TAKEN

Chapter 9: HELP ME, I’M BEING TAKEN

Looking down at the farm I call home from a cloud is one of my favorite things to do. I see my sister taking pictures of herself next to a tree, “She is so self-centered,” I mumbled to myself but then the everything started going white until all I could see was white.

I let out a moan as I woke up.

I slowly moved out of bed with bones cracking as I moved and when I looked out the window, “Holy fuck is that snow?” I exclaimed to myself.

I rushed to the window in and still in disbelief I said, “It is actually snowing”.

I didn’t put on my hat or vest as I’ve gotten used to not wearing it every second and went to the living room so see if the girls have woken up yet and I get myself breakfast, I don’t know why but do miss using my slang ‘brekkie’ for breakfast.

I entered the living room to see that other than me Lyra was the only one up with a glass of water, “Good morning, have you what's outside?” I asked trying to hide my excitement.

“Yes, it started snowing last night didn’t you see the clouds yesterday and you seem very excited by this doesn't it snow where you use to live?” Lyra responded.

“In the area I lived, it has never snowed,” I said.

Very suddenly Lyra and I heard somepony knocking at the door, “I got it,” I said to Lyra but she was right behind me as I went to the door.

I got the the door and opened it to see Twilight in a blue scarf, “Sorry for coming so suddenly but you need to come with me!” Twilight rapidly exclaimed and before I knew it I was in a purple bubble hovering in the air giving the world a purple tint then Twilight started running with the bubble moving with her.

I looked to Lyra who was just as confused as me and I yelled, “HELP ME, I’M BEING TAKEN!”.

I was being rushed across Ponyville and I decided to make my mane more presentable, I got the feeling of being watched but I wouldn’t blame anypony for looking, I’m a stallion doing his mane as a princess is taking somewhere.

Soon Twilight and I were at Twilight’s home and when we entered she released her spell with me facing to her.

“Last time we spoke what was a week ago I have been researching what you have told me and I didn’t find anything here but I went to Canterlot and I very good amount of books on chakra, turn around.

I turned around to see a not small but not big pile of books in the middle of the room, “Wow, I have never seen so many books about chakra,” I told Twilight.

“I have only been able to read half of one so far but I needed you to see this,” Twilight said.

Twilight and I heard the front door open with a knock with Lyra appeared as the door opened, “Um, is everything okay, or has Draga been ponynapped,” Lyra said confused with what was happening.

I looked at her, pointing to the pile of books and said, “I think I might be taking my Sunday day off reading.”

Twilight told Lyra what was happening and what the pile of books where.

“Oh, well all is okay then, and this makes Hearth's warming day present buying easier,” Lyra said.

Hearth's warming was very soon, 4 days actually if you include to day, I really need to remember dates.

Lyra was about to close the front door on her way out but then her eyes exploded open and told me, “Remember that you need to get something nice to wear for Hearth's warming day eve,” then she left and I don’t remember ever needing something to wear for Hearth's warming day eve that at all.

Now that Lyra had left Twilight wanted to start reading with me and the first group book she got was on chakra control.

The books taught me about using chakra to make the most of every little bit of it, that chakra flows through the body like blood, chakra is released through chakra points what there are 361 of on a earth and unicorn pony and a bit more for pegasus since they have wings and finally that the ‘blue flame’ that came from my punches on Reipu goons was chakra either, being recklessly focused to my hoof with no control or chakra being controlled very well and being used to make the punch more damaging. To be honest I’d say it would be the first one since I was fueled by rage and I don’t think I’m that good in controlling chakra.

Twilight was about to get another group of books but a knock of the front door filled to whole room. Twilight opened the door and that super energetic, pink pony I delivered bon bons to was there, what was her name, Tinkie Ki, no…. oh I remember it was Pinkie Pie.

“Hey, Twilight, can I borrow a book to read to the Cake kids?” Pinkie Pie asked Twilight.

“Sure, are you looking for anything in particular? replied Twilight.

“Nope, I’ll tell you if the Cakes have that book,” said Pinkie, then she saw me looking at her. She dashed to me at a speed that shouldn’t be possible, “It’s you, Draga, what are you doing here?” asked Pinkie.

“Hi, Pinkie I’m just doing some reading with Twilight,” I said nervously.

“Do you two already know each other?” asked Twilight.

I turned my head to twilight who was standing next to a shelf, “I did a delivery of Bon bon she order sometime ago,” I answered Twilight.

“Okay, Pinkie have you told them the origin story of Hearth's warming?” said Twilight with a book she was levitating next to her.

“Nope doppie,” said Pinkie starting to bounce to Twilight.

Pinkie got the book from Twilight and put it in her mane, wait what.

Out of nowhere Pinkie looked at me and asked, “What is the biggest thing you have made from snow.”

“Well…. I have never been in snow, because it never snow where I lived,” I answered a bit nervously since I didn’t know how Pinkie would react.

The face on Pinkie, she was in shock, like I just killed somepony in front of her, “WHAT!” she yelled.

Pinkie bolted to me, then started dragging me by my right front hoof. They say mares fighting over you is good but I don’t think this applies.

I looked at Twilight with a sacred expression on my face and yelled, “HELP ME, I’M BEING TAKEN AGAIN!”

The snow thankfully made being dragged not painful and I managed to free myself from Pinkie’s hold on me, we were about 30 metres from Twilight’s place.

I quickly got up and with half a breath said, “If somepony need me, just ask.”

I after gaining normal breathing, something hit me in the face, it was snow.

I wiped the snow off my face and looked to where the snowball came, I saw Pinkie with a silly smile on her face.

I extended my right wing and flick a small bit of snow off the ground at her, landing on her hooves, “You know you just dragged me out to the middle Ponyville and threw a snowball at me.”

I don’t even really remember how nor if it is even truly possible but I managed to talk myself away from Pinkie with minimal snow attacks on me.

When I got back to Twilights she had a very big, old looking piece of paper on the floor, I could walk to the centre of it and still have room, actually at the centre was a circle with strange markings all around the circle.

“So you’re back, sorry I was going to help you but this came along and it’s from Princess Celestia,” said Twilight noticing my presence.

“Yeah, what is this?” I asked right way.

“From the note that came with it, this is an ancient magic scroll what was found recently and nopony has been able to find out what all the markings mean or what it does,” Twilight said.

“You said ‘all the markings’ so do you know what some of them mean?” I asked.

Pointing to a marking that look bit like a pony Twilight said, “See that, that is a ‘usage condition’, it’s saying that only ponies can be effected.”

“So let me get this straight if I were to stand in that circle and you were to activate this, something will happen to me?” I asked.

“Yes you are correct, Draga,” awarded Twilight.

“So do you want to see what it does?” I said taking a couple steps to the scroll.

“Do that is a bit rash don’t you think?” Twilight asked me.

“If something bad happens wouldn’t the creator destroy the scroll?” I answered Twilight with question also I just stepping into the circle.

“Are you absolutely sure you want to test this?” asked Twilight a bit unsure.

“Yes and if I do die tell Lyra to find my friends and tell them I hate them,” I said as a joke.

Twilight rolled her eyes and lowered her head down and her horn started to glow.

Soon the once black markings were glowing white and the sound of a soft breeze filled the room as my body started also glowing white, also I started levitating.

Once the glow got to my eyes my whole vision went white and soon everything suddenly went black.

I opened my eyes to find my face on the floor, with my flank up in the air and not really feeling any different.

I got up and said to Twilight who was in shock but this was like if I killed her whole family and started bathing in their blood, “So what has happened to me, I don’t feel any different, do I look any different?” but my voice was off, it sounded feminine.

Twilight dashed off and before I could even think she had a full body mirror facing me.

No wonder she was in shock, “I’M A MARE!” I yelled.
