Naruto and Trixie were curled up together on one of the park benches within the capital. In a city like Canterlot there were few park enthusiasts so it was a good place to go to get some alone time.

"Will you tell me more now? You left off just before you woke up in the Everfree for the first time and Trixie is curious on how you adapted to everything." She asked as she looked up from his shoulder.

"Well," the blond began as he gently ran his fingers along her shoulder. Pursuing an intimate relationship with Trixie had meant opening up and being forthcoming about his past.

To start it all of he guess it was time to talk about that day. That day the Bearers had saved Nightmare Moon.

"It all started when I met Rainbow Dash who saved my life. I ended up in Ponyville for the first time."

Naruto began to stir, a groan escaping his lips as his vision slowly focused. He slowly sat up; he was in some kind of hospital room. "Where am I?" he wondered.

"You're at the hospital!" A sweet yet brash voice spoke to him.

He turned to the voice and sure enough it was a colorful bipedal female pony from the forest. "You…you saved me." It took him a few moments to recall the events that led him to here. Fighting Shadowfright to stop kaguya's reawakening.

That cold empty void.

"Yep, the name is Rainbow Dash, feel free to thank me however much you think is necessary then throw a little bit more in for good measure." The prismatic mare seemed to brag to him.

"Considering you were about to be overrun I'd consider us even." He teased with a light grin.

"What!" she exclaimed in outrage. "Hey buddy I totally saved your butt!" Rainbow argued, growing annoyed that the Stallion wasn't more grateful. "If I haven't been there you would have been creature food."

The stallion grew silent for a few seconds. "Thanks, I haven't been having the best past few days and you really helped me out of a tough situation." He earnestly answered in surprise. He had just recently came to terms that he was no longer human after spending the better part of the day lost in the forest. Right now he was just trying to deal with the shock of it all.

Surprised by the earnest thank you all the wind was taken out of the pegasus's sail. "I…you're welcome." Rainbow remarked.

Suddenly another Pony woman had entered the room. She was shorter than the rainbow woman with a light pink made reminiscent of cotton candy wearing an open candy striper nurse outfit with a black top underneath as they were called he believe. A stark contrast to the scrubs he was used to seeing. Her fur was white or maybe closer to light gray shade with beautiful sapphire blue. She was wearing a Nurse hat and had Red Cross mark on her side with a heart at the four corners. All and all she was rather pleasant to look at."Well this is a first Rainbow. Normally whenever you come to the hospital you bring injuries, but this is the first time you've brought a Stallion. I wonder if that thing about those monsters is entirely true, hhm?" the nurse lightly teased the tomcolt with the insinuation that there was another reason behind the stallion's injuries. Considering how reckless Rainbow Dash could be it wasn't unusual to see her back in the hospital every other month or so.

"Nurse Redheart!" Rainbow Dash's cheek burned a furious red. She couldn't believe the insinuation she was hearing. "I don't even know him. Besides, I don't have time for romance; you know I'm trying to join the Wonderbolts."

"In hindsight its kind of funny. Redheart's teasing. Dash and I ended up becoming a couple after all."

"Now that I think about it the Rainbow Dash of now is rather different then the way she used to be, isn't she?"

Naruto let out a thoughtful hum as their feet brushed together. "They all are. Its funny how much we all changed.

"What about the other elements? Are they that different now from when you met them back then?"

Naruto pondered the question and best way to answer. "Some you can say have changed more than others. Applejack is probably the one to change the least having grown less stubborn, but then again she was always down to earth to begin with. If you really think about it. Nearly all of them either saved me or helped me in a time of need. I was in the forest, being impulsive and foolish. It would be awhile before I had my old level of strength back. I needed to see where I was at and good thing to or else I wouldn't have heard Applebloom's cries for help. I bit off more then I could chew."

000000000000

'It feels like I'm on fire. If I keep gong I'm going to cripple myself. Uugh if only this damn body wasn' so sluggish.' an image of the village came to the mind as well as his family. He could never forgive himself if he died like this to some wild animals though.

Just as the creatures charged two figures leaped over him. A mare in a Stetson hat and the other wearing some sort of object he didn't recognize. One had a crimson coat and the other was orange like him, both with a gamboge colored hair or manes as they were called on equines. With impressive strength they sent two of the creatures flying with the female throwing a kick and the male launching a punch respectively.

"That was the moment I first met Applejack. I wouldn't formally talk to her and the rest of the Apples of Sweet Apple Acres onto the next day. Speaking of which I should introduce you to the Crusaders some time. I'm sure they would love your magic, especially Nyx."

"You're one of the strongest ponies I know. Its difficult imagining you as weak."

"Yeah well, being weak and powerless instead of being born special gives you insight and respect for power. I never try to use more power than necessary as that welcomes recklessness and arrogancy."

"It is an unbecoming trait." Nothing like having your ego bruised to make one become more humble. "So how did you come to meet Pinkamena?" It was always so easy to forget Trixie and Pinkie had a past. Then again the stint that Trixie spent on Pinkie's farm was before the mare had become laughter incarnate.

Naruto let out a gentle exhale and briefly laughed, "Funnily enough I think out of all the girls I had the most normal meeting of all with Pinkie."

"Aah, leave it to her to always be the stand out."

"Oooh! Customers, customers! Welcome!" A flash of pink whizzed out the door and abruptly stopped in front of them. The mare had a brilliant raspberry mane, light cerulean eyes, and a pale, light raspberry coat.

"Hello Pinkie Pie, I've brought a friend to treat him out for a meal."

"Oh, hello there!" In yet another pink flash, Naruto found himself nose to nose with the mare with the cotton candy hair. She was dressed in a light pink shirt with balloons on it, two blue and one yellow in the middle adorning her torso, violet mini skirt along with white and pink sleeves and stockings. The energy radiating from her was quite infectious. "Ooh you have such fun hair? And what's with the fox tail. I don't think I've ever seen you before. How'd you get the foxtail? What's your name? Are you a fox-pony? I've never met a foxpony before!" she suddenly gasped after her flurry of questions threatened to overwhelm Naruto. "I have to plan you a party!"

"But you just met me why would you throw a party for me?" 'She's just met me yet she wants to do something like that for me? And all these questions. I wonder if she's always this energetic?'

"Because that's just what I do. I throw parties for all my new friends." She answered him with a bright, childlike smile.

"Pinkie Pie if you don't mind we're here to get something to eat." Naruto's companion told her.

Pinkie's eyes widened in glee. "Ooh! I didn't know you two came here to buy some sweets! Well, what do you and Mr. Foxpony want to eat?"

"H-Hey, the name is Naruto. Not Fox pony okay." Naruto remarked as a deep blush colored his cheeks.

"Nah-rue-toh? Wow that's such a strange name. Sounds like a dance you do on your toes."

"As you can imagine I was still in the midst of dealing with culture shock. Pinkie became one of my closest friends and confidant during that time. Despite the fact I would be spending a good deal of time at Sweet Apple Acres something about Pinkie and I clicked sooner then with Applejack."

"How'd you manage to get along with so many different personalities?" That type of temperance and patience was often reserved for diplomats, secretaries, or just those int he job field used to dealing with different personalities.

"I've had many friends with varied personalities remember. When you were the leader of a nation you have to deal with the other leaders, delegates, and the head of establishments. You cannot be a succesful leader or better yet, a beloved one without being good in dealing with people's feelings and concerns." He noticed that the moon was slowly rising.

"Continuing on with your story. From what I understand that you and the others were a major influence on Fluttershy. Was she really that much of a shut in?"

"Yeah she was," he answered as he gently kicked his right foot back and forth against the grass. "Poor mare was afraid of many things. You'd be surprised that she wasn't diagnosed with some sort of condition. But even then, wracked with fear, she still had one of the biggest hearts ever seen. Like before I've gone and got myself hurt again."

He slowly began to stir only to find himself in a cottage of some sorts. He was in a basket and as he assessed himself, he found that he was attended to. He looked around and saw there was an assortment of animals consisting of birds, squirrels, mice, cats, and other creatures. "Where in the world am I?" He said as the pony he assumed was his caretaker entered the room. Upon realizing he was awake, she seemed to freeze in mid-step.

"Oh hello, you helped me right?" Naruto asked as he moved up to his hooves. The mare made something in relation to a squeak as she stood there. "Hello? My name is Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki, what's yours?" The Pegasus shielded away from him. The various animals let out various growls causing the blond to stumble back.

"Its okay." The Pegasus quietly assured her little companions. "M-My name is Fluttershy. H-Hello." They both exchanged a glance as blue eyes met blue eyes. The Pegasus once more shielded away from him.

"Well it's nice to meet you Fluttershy. Can you tell me where I am?"

"Oh we're outside of Ponyville Mr. Naruto."

Naruto just grinned. "Just Naruto, no Mr. ok?"

With that the Pegasus timidly nodded. "N-Naruto, could you tell me why you were unconscious outside, but you don't have to answer it though I was just curious." She shielded away as he turned towards her, bumping into one of her animal friends before quickly apologizing to the gentle soul.

"I was training. I'm something of a martial artist and I sort of went overboard. You really saved me though, thanks for your help." He thanked her. It seemed a pattern was forming. He would befriend a kind pony who would be willing to help him and he would bond with them.

Which led him to learn more about her. "I'm the town's veterinarian." She answered when he asked her what she did for a living.

"A vet? So you like animals then?"

She perked up at this. "Oh yes! I just love them! I love all animals. From the smallest little chipmunk, to the largest bear. Except for d-dragons. Dragons are scary, and mean." She finished her statement with a quiver.

In nearly everything she did from her demeanor to her career centered on her kind nature. While being a guest at her cottage Naruto got to know the mare as she tended to his injuries.

000000000000000

"There does seem to be a running theme with you." Trixie dryly remarked. Using her magic she drew to her a bottle of water from her bag. "Now we get to your Alpha. The love of your life."

'That's not exactly fair Trixie. I love all my herd equally." He insisted as Trixie payfully plod at him with her horn.

"You have a big heart, that is true, but let us be realistic. Even if you truly believe so, there is a reason why the dressmaker holds a special place in your heart. She is your alpha and there is no denying that. So reveal the wonderful tale of how you both were awestruck with each other and knew you were each other's one and only."

Naruto shook his head in response to Trixie's fairly overdramatic assessment of their meeting. "Actually here's another surprise. Now that I think about it out of all of them I had the most negative first reaction with Rarity."

"Hello? Excuse me? Anyone here?" From what Naruto was told this Rarity was the pony to go to when you were in need of clothes. He was skeptical when he came across the circus like building but withheld his judgement. "Wow, she must be one of the richest ponies in town. Place looks like it has a second floor and its really artsy." He thought as he called out to the store's properitor.

"Please come in, I'll be with you in a moment." A posh, sophisticated voice answered. Naruto walked deeper inside until he saw a Unicorn. Her horn glowed with a light heliotrope glow.

One of the things Naruto came to learn was that some of these ponies were very peculiar about their image and colors. The only person who really struck him as someone really into that whole fashion scene was Ino. And even then she was more reserved then some of the residents he had encountered in his sort time here.

The Unicorn lady quickly finished what she was working on. "There, now that is all finished, how may I help...you?" Naruto watched the mare sputter before just stopping altogether.

Rarity stared at the stallion before her and she was horrified at his appearance. "Those garments are absolutely dreadful and will not do."

For a brief moment Naruto was insulted by her comment. She basically attacked him he gave out verbal protests as he was dragged through the boutique before plopping him down in a chair.

"No one shall leave my boutique in such a condition. That mane of yours looks like jagged edges and you're covered in splotches. Do you not take care of your mane?" As the Unicorn continued to dress him down, Naruto couldn't help but wince. The mare was like a mix of Ino and Sakura. The parts he didn't care for at the moment.

"Look, that's enough! It's kind of insulting that you're berating me without even getting as so much as my name don't you think? I only came to see if I can get my clothes mended, but if you're only going to insult me I'll leave."

After the end of Naruto's statement, the Unicorn looked remorseful. "Forgive me, sometimes I lose myself when I get caught up in fashion. To think I tossed my manners to the wind like that. How can I even call myself a lady?"

Naruto found himself stunned by how dramatic the Unicorn was being. She even went as far as using her magic to pull out a couch and collapsed on top of it.

"Look, I'm just here to fix my clothes or get new ones. I'm…" He paused as he tried to come up with a reason. "…someone who works out and trains a lot and I need clothes to train in."

"Oh please allow me to fulfill this request. I assure you that you are in capable hands." She promised as she brought out a measuring tool. She began examining his dimensions when she caught sight of something. "My word, what an interesting and fetching features. I have never seen anything quite like it?"

"What?" He was confused on what she was going on about. He didn't think he looked any differently than anypony else.

"Your tail of course." She emphasized as if she couldn't believe he was clueless.

Naruto couldn't help but pale slightly. His tail definitely wasn't normal. It was more fox-like then it was pony.

"Oh such a divine feature. Think of the outfits I could make showcasing it. It is like this life of ours to bless me with such a divine sight, if only I had such a treasure."

"But considering that you plan on marrying her things have obviously worked out."

"Yes, she apologized and from then on she somehow managed to become my closest bond. It makes sense in a way. She was the first to started to see the other side of me."

Brief flashes of that day passed through his mind.

When he and Rarity made their trek out of town for what was supposed to be a regular gem hunt. Though he briefly wondered if maybe he was a bit more perceptive that maybe even as far back as then they could have been together?

The aftermath of being attacked by Ashby and how he had saved her from being raped and most likely killed.

How she'd refused to leave him behind wen it was drawing closer to night fall and he could barely move from his injuries.

They had definitely came a long way.

"And of course that saves Twilight Sparkle for last." The other half of the glue that kept them all together.

"The first of many fated days. The Summer Sun Celebration. So many lives were changed that day. Funny thing is what led to that had actually started many months ago actually. Princess Celestia needed my help. She needed my judgement. Ponyville was the last possible place where the elements could be and she felt she would see who she wanted as bearers out of axniousness then who would be the true chosen ones."

"I already have plans to send my protégé to help organize the preparations for Ponyville."

He nodded as he went over the traits again. Honesty. Laughter. Generosity. Loyalty. Kindness. Five ponies capable of wielding legendary artifacts and he would only have a few months to figure them out. "I see, and when do I start?"

"Immediately." Celestia informed him. "This is of the utmost importance."

"Princess I assure you that I'll do everything I can to help you. Ponyville, no Equestria has become my home now. I will protect it no matter what."

"Excellent," Celestia responded as her expression turned into one of gratitude. "I knew I could depend on you. Let's make preparations immediately." She said as she beckoned the blond to follow her.

"It didn't take me long to find out who the other Bearers were. My job was to simply protect them. The process of them and Twilight becoming friends were all up to them. We could not interfere at all or the bonds wouldn't be geniune. The Elements would not activate. All the time I spent around Celestia and to think it took me that long to meet Twilight."

"I'm sorry," he immediately apologized as he quickly scooped up the checklist the Unicorn was previously holding after a quick glance over Naruto recognized Twilight from the description that Celestia had given her.

"Its okay, no harm done." The Unicorn replied as she was handed back her list.

Naruto took a step back and took notice of her companion. Without a doubt he was a baby lizard, most likely a dragon considering his features. "Welcome to Ponyville, my name is Naruto and it's nice to meet you. I haven't seen you around before so am I wrong to assume you're new to town?"

"Indeed I am. My name is Twilight Sparkle and this is my assistant…"

"…the name's Spike." The rather chipper dragon cut in.

"…and we've come supervise preparations for the Summer Sun Festival. I hope I'm not being rude, but we're really busy. I have to find my way to Sweet Apple Acres to check on how the food preparations are going."

00000000000000000

It was kind of funny to think about how Spike looked like then compared to what he looked like now.

"And everything seemed to be going on schedule. We all gathered at Town Hall and everything was going alright and that's when it happened. Nightmare Moon made her presence known. A good portion of the town had managed to get away and went to Sweet Apple Acres. A barrier was cast and everypony had to bunker down. For obvious reasons the seven of us could not just sit there. Twilight had read up on the tale Mare of the Moon and revealed what she felt was the one way to save Equestria. Getting the Elements of Harmony so that was when we made a plan to traverse the Everfree."

"And nopony tried to stop you?" The illusionist asked as Naruto grinned sheepishly.

"Well only one pony managed to overhear us."

"Thankfully I was able to convince Ditzy not to impede us. Her daughter needed her more then she could help us."

"And with the seven of you getting through the Everfree Forest must have been rather simple." From what little she knew of the forest she highly doubted the Bearers would have had much trouble.

"Aah but you forget, we were nowhere near as strong then as we are now. What helped us that at the time the Nightmare wasn't trying to full on kill us early on. Like the ledge we were on collasping under us."

He acted quick to save Rarity while the rest of the Bearers helped each other.

"And that was just the tip of the iceberg. From then on we had to deal with so many obstacles. Timberwolves which Applejack and Fluttershy had to fight with the help of a Manticore who Nightmare Moon tried to throw at us."

"Then there was an emotional serpent, but he became an ally as Pinkie Pie and Rarity fought Griffins."

with Timberwolves, a Manticore, Griffins, Nightmare followers, a revived Satyr and one very emotional Serpent." He said recalling his own fight and what the other Bearers had told him of that night.

"And then there was one of the anti-thesis armor bearers we would end up fighting later on. Rainbow took her on one on one allowing me and Twilight to get by."

"And finally I found myself fighting a resurrected enemy."

"We were all dealing with our respective obstacles. My enemy, the Satyr Ashby was the same creature I had a run in with when Rarity and I were collecting gems. You could imagine my surprise encountering him. After I dealt with him that's when the stakes rose and I encountered Nightmare herself. I was completely outclassed and was going to be sent into a realm of darkness, but somehow I ended up in the last place I could have expected. Princess Luna's mindscape. That was where I met Princess Luna for the firs time."

0000000000

The cage contained what looked like a young filly Alicorn. She looked hardly older than the crusaders. Her coat was that of a light phtalo shade. The svelte little pony was wearing a simple dark blue dress with the insignia of the moon on the front of it. As he got closer he took more of her features, her mane and tail colors were that of a light azure color and the Alicorn filly looked so sad it almost broke his heart.

"W-Who are you?" she asked in a whimpering tone as her voice cracked slightly. Her eyes were filled with a lot of fear.

"I'm not going to hurt you," he softly spoke to her as he got closer. "My name is Naruto what's yours?" he asked as he approached the cage but the Pony only shot him a furious look as a frown marred her features.

"We shall not for your tricks again. Just leave us alone. " She wailed as tears began to whirl up in her eyes. Suddenly she seemed to switch gears as she looked off into space. "Where are you Big sister? W-We are so sorry please don't be mad at me anymore. I don't like being alone." The tears slid down her face. "T-Tia…d-don't you love me anymore?" she asked in between sniffles as she sat down and curled up in a ball.

"It was a heart breaking sight so to speak. It wouldn't be long until Nightmare Moon manifested herself inside of Luna's mind and we were forced to fight her."

"If she was able to seal the princess inside her own mind, how come she didn't have complete control of the mindscape?"

"Well at the end of the day the mindscape was still Luna. It based its current state of mind off Luna's feelings. And it was gaining back that courage that allowed Luna to fight."

An explosion of dark, yet benevolent energy drew the attention of both combatants. They turned as Princess Luna underwent a transformation. Her light azure mane transformed into a brilliant Persian blue color. Her light phthalo coat was now a deep cerulean color and what was once a little girl now stood a goddess of a woman in blue shimmering gown painted with white sparks reminiscent of the sun.

"Nightmare Moon, Thee shall no longer do as thee please anymore. We will end of your tyranny and banish thee to the darkest depths of the Underworld."

"The battle we fought could not be done justice with just mere words. The only details of the battle I can provide you were the one fought on my end."

"Luna you have to finish her now!" Naruto shouted as he flashed over to her side. "The only way to win a battle of the mind is for that person to overcome their demons once and for all."

"We don't know if we have the power." Nightmare Moon was as every bit as powerful as she was if not more.

"Then I'll help you." Like that day during the war Naruto transferred some of his chakra to Princess Luna. The Princess found herself enveloped by a warm yet powerful golden glow.

Teeming with power the Princess called upon deepest recess of her magic. And in one single blast the power fired at the tainted Alicorn quickly overwhelmed the creature.

"I will…never…fade…"

And with that the creature then faded out of existence.

"Though if you were to ask me if there was any moment I remember vividly from that day then there is one. The most important and worthwhile of them all. The moment two sisters were reunited."

00000000000

"It has been a thousand years sister. I've waited so long to say this." Luna seemed to seize up as to brace herself for her sister's wrath. "I'm sorry." Luna seemed stunned silence. Despite remembering the memory she saw during the battle reminding her of their sisterly bond she felt and believe what was going to happen in the real world would be anything but that. "I failed to be there for you and because of my mistakes you had to suffer for a thousand years. No matter our differences we are family and we should never let anything tear us apart. Its time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister. Will you accept my friendship?"

"I'm so sorry!" She ran up and threw her arms around Celestia, more happy tears running down her face, "I missed you so much, big sister!"

Celestia began to tear up as well, "I've missed you, too."

0000000000000

"With that I can honestly say that moments like that are what makes what I do worth it." He said as he stood up and extended his hand.

Trixie looked up to him in response to the invitation.

"I think that's enough reminsceng for one night. Got to leave something to look forward to right. Besides, since we're out on a stroll there is one place I want to bring you to."

Sensing their time together for the night was coming to an end Naruto brought Trixie to the Hills area on the other side of Canterlot. The hills were just in the right place where the glow of the sun or moon gave either the grass the look of shiny gold hay or shimmering crystals.

The grass had that effect for longer than anypony could remember. People always theorized that the grass was enchanted by spellcasters Millennias ago.

"The site is truly beautiful." I wish I could have observed the beauty that was out there more, but I was always working, nevering knowing where my next bit would come from. "So, you brought me here for more than the sight right? Otherwise you would have merely just told me about it."

'She's not referring to herself in the third person. I guess she's feeling more comfortable around me since I've been opening up more as well.' "This spot. Its view out in the countryside it brought out old memories. I remember...when it was Hinata, I, and the kids. I didn't always have time for my family, but when I did I always tried to make the best of it. I used to bring them to a hill just like this one. We loved to sit here on this hill and wait until night time came around and the fireflies came and the 'light show' began. My oldest daughter, Himawari, oh she would chase after them. She had my energy and curiosity, but was tempered by her mother's sweet nature." Naruto's happy expression turned melancholic.

"Your wife sounds absolutely lovely,`" Trixie said with a grin, "She had to have been a mare like no other to catch your heart.

"Thanks…" Naruto scratched the back of his head. "She was great."

"Was- Oh." As soon as Trixie remembered the forgotten tidbit, her ears lowered a little. "Sorry, I was so absentminded..." She started with her apologize, but soon heard Naruto let out a little bittersweet laugh.

"I know you meant no harm Trix. I don't want everypony to have to walk eggshells around me. I've accepted that, that part of my life is over, but as long as their memories are alive then their never really gone you know." Naruto reached out and took a hold of Trixie's hand. "Come on, let's head back."

The stroll back to the castle was uneventful. They passed by some guards as Naruto escorted Trixie to her room.

"As always Uzumaki spending time with you was delightful. I'm so used to talking to ponies or gong on about my own bravado I forgot what it was like to listen. I look forward to more in the future." So much so she was disappointed the night was ending already and was looking for a way to extend the night. "Unless you wish to stay for a nightcap of course? You could always sleep here, the bed are large enough to accommodate." To which she then put on her best pout. "But I sure hope you have no designs to take advantage of Trixie. Even with my new training Trixie is unsure she could fend off a beast such as yourself."

Naruto almost double over in laughter as he placed his palm over his mouth to contain his laughter and avoid disturbing the sleeping inhabitants of the castle. "Thanks for the invitation, but maybe some other night. Though if you wish want to grab breakfast before your lessons?"

"I suppose I can pencil you in." she answered.

"Goodnight Trixie." He leaned in and captured her lips in a kiss. After a brief moment the kiss ended.

"Goodnight...Naruto." She said wistfully as she watched his form grow smaller and smaller the further he traveled. As far as Trixie was concerned the morning couldn't come fast enough.

There were many more stories left to tell. Memories to share. Experiences that were great. Memories that were dreadful. Sharing the experiences was left with each story speaker. Whether or not the people who were comfortable speaking of the memories would influence what was spoken and what was not.

And those decisions would shape the future of the world. There would always be moment when you hurt one you care about.

Sometimes a loved one or friend would be needed.

There will be moments when it takes an understanding heart or the willingness to do good to form bonds.

But the important thing is to never forget ones bonds. Bonds are strength. Those emotions fueled the aspects of your heart and soul. And those positive aspects are the very essence of what Harmony is. Because there is no telling what the future may hold. But as long as those powerful bonds remain there is no force to which the forces of Harmony shall ever fall to.
