"TWILIGHT! I GOT BLAZE'S HOUSE!" I yelled as I got back to the library.

"What? What are you talking about!?"

"Do you know a spell to shape stone?" I ran inside and found Twilight reading.

"Well yes, why?"

"Because I have a giant stone tree and I need to make it into a house for a dragon-pony."

"... Do you purposely not make sense, or does it just happen?"

"What? Just happens I guess, look, I need to absorb your magic and shape the stone tree ok?"

"... I have no idea what you're talking about, but sure."

"Ok!" I sat down next to Twilight. She hesitated for a minute, but then she crawled into my lap. "... I'm pretty sure we don't have to sit like this..."

"Just stop talking..."

"..."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Ok, are you sure it's safe for me to do this?"

"No! You're the one that insisted on doing it!"

"... Fair point. Here I go! Just imagine what I want it to look like?"

"Yes, but you really sh--" I focused my magic on making the stone tree into a copy of Twilight's library. The tree didn't change much at first, but then it slowly started forming to meet the image in my head. The door popped up, and the windows and balcony came into existence as well. I couldn't see the inside, but I assume it was moving to meet my designs as well. "Wow! You're really doing it!"

"Yeah... Yeah I am..." I finished the spell, then fell over.

"Sharky?!"

"Hmm? Mom?"

"... No." Twilight sighed. "That spell took more than I thought it would... Let's get you home."

"But I still have school left..."

"Just go to sleep." Twilight lifted me with her aura and brought me back to the library. I fell asleep with no problems.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Huh? What happened?"

"You over did it with a spell and fell asleep."

"Oh... was it worth it?"

"You... are entertaining." I stood up and stretched. I had been in Twilight's bed. I swooned and sat back down.

"Whew! Well, that was... tiring." Then I had a thought. "Hey Twilight. Do you wanna go to dinner?"

"WHAT?! IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING?!"

"Yeah, I wanna take all my friends out! I had lotsa fun with RD. Now I wanna take you and the other out too!"

"So... dinner as friends."

"Yeah."

"... Sounds great. Why are you asking now?"

"Because I'm too tired to run off and do something crazy. Is that ok?"

"..."

"So, how'd the house turn out?"

"Really good actually! You didn't put hinges on the door though, so I don't know about the inside."

"Darn, knew I forgot something. Why are you in the bed?"

"Uhh... Sleepy. I stayed up really late last night."

"Oh, sorry. I'll just go lay down next to the bookcases then."

"No no, it's ok. You're keeping me warm."

"Oh, I'll stay then." I slipped back under the blanket. Twilight and I were spooning again, but I was WAY too tired for it to bother me. "So, what do you wanna do before dinner? I took RD to a Wonderbolt's show and met Daring Do, so I'm sure I can find a way to do something cool for you too."

"You did what? You know what? Never mind. I... don't know... what do you wanna do?" I gave her a huge grin.

"I know exactly what I want!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wow! I've never gotten to do that with anypony before!" Twilight said contentedly.

"Yeah, me either. I gotta say, I never pictured doing it with a pony either."

"Ha yeah, I didn't think you were ever gonna do this!"

"Well, I did. That was a lot of fun Twilight!"

"Yeah, yeah it was!"

"How many times did you finish?"

"5. How about you?"

"Ah man, only 4! I guess that makes you the faster reader!"

"Ha, I guess I am!"

"I love reading, don't you?"

"Yeah! I never thought anypony would be willing to just sit with me and read for so long!"

"That was perfect..."

"Yeah! Sorry I had to stop to feed Unity those couple times."

"Oh, it's no bother. I had fun nontheless!"

"So, what should we do now?"

"Hmmm... Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to try some spells on you!"

"Sure!"

"... Just sure? No questions about what's gonna happen? You aren't even gonna ask what spells I'm gonna use?"

"Nope."

"... I should be concerned." Twilight muttered quietly.

"Eh maybe. Now, What spell do we try first?"

"Wow, you're enthusiastic. Huh... well... you'll see. Here we go!" Twilight's horn glowed, and I was hit with a blast of magic. "Now, how do you feel?"

"... Small." I was now at eye level with Twilight's hooves. I tried to lift my arms, but they turned out to be small paws. "... Am I a mouse?"

"Yes! Transmogrification works on you!"

"SWEET! WHERE'S MY CHEESE??"

"... You are so much fun! Spike freaks out when I try this stuff on him!"

"WHAT?! WHY?! THIS IS AWESOME!" I started running around as fast as I could. Then Fang came in. "Oh crap..." Fang started eyeing me hungrily. "Twilight.... CHANGE ME BACK CHANGE ME BACK CHANGE ME BACK NOW!" Fang leapt at me and I scampered away. Twilight hit me with magic again, and I changed back to full size. Fang gave me a really confused look and whimpered a little.

"See? Told you wolves are dangerous."

"Yeah, WHEN I'M A MOUSE! Anyway, what spell are we doing next?"

"You want MORE?!"

"YEAH! That was AWESOME!"

"... Okaaayyy. Well how about this one?" She hit me with another blast of magic, and all of the sudden my chest felt way heavier.

"What... was that one?" My voice sounded lighter and higher pitched.

"Oh! So that's what human females look like!" I looked down, and saw exposed breasts. I immediately covered my chest.

"Umm... akward... Can you change me back?"

"Oh, sure." She hit me with another blast of magic. I felt my chest get lighter and my *ehm* grow back.

"Whew, thanks. Got any more?"

"Just one more, I've actually been looking forward to this one!"

"... Should that scare me or should I be happy?"

"... Yes." She used magic again, but this time the bolt flew in a big 'U' and hit her.

"Whoa! What was that?!"

"Do you feel any different?"

"... Not really. Why would I? You hit yourself!" Then I started actually looking at Twilight. "Wow... you're really pretty today... Wait! What am I saying?" I reached towards Twilight, but my other hand stopped it. "What the hell?! I want to have her! No I don't! Gaaaahhh! What did you do? The question is what will I do.... No it isn't!"

"What... the... Huh, it seems the spell only effected half of you..."

"I want to touch you! No I don't! Ignore me! Come to me! Be mine!" Twilight grinned.

"... Yes..." She whispered silently. She made a mental note to remember this spell. She cancelled out the magic.

"Ah... ha... ha... Sorry Twilight... I don't know what came over me!"

"That was the 'want it need it spell'. Apparently it only effects half your mind."

"Oh yeah! I remember that one!"

"What? How do you know that spell?"

"Oh... uh... I read it in one of the books!"

"Really? Which one?"

"I uhh... Don't remember the name..."

"Are you sure? It was only in one of my books, and it has a really memorable name..."

"Uhh...--" RD burst into the library.

"SHARKY!! SCOOTALOO IS WAKING UP!"

"OH THANK CELESTIA A DISTRACTION! I'M ON MY WAY!" I took off running out of the library. Twilight and I had been reading all day, so it was mostly dark out. I followed RD, but she was flying so she easily outdistanced me. Fang was by my side again. What a good pet. I made it into the hospital, but Fang stayed behind. "THERE IS NO PASSWORD!" I yelled as I passed a few nurses. A few of them grinned at me, other just looked confused. I burst into Scootaloo's room. RD and I were the only ones there. Scootaloo was wiggling around on the bed, but she didn't appear to be awake yet.

"Come here! She's about to wake up!" I moved to RD's side and crouched at the edge of Scootaloo's bed.

"Oh really? I couldn't tell."

"... Smart flank today, aren't you?"

"A little. So, what are we gonna do with her?"

"I... I want to adopt her..."

"RD?! You want to adopt her?!"

"Yes... Wait, is there something wrong with that?!"

"YES! You can't cook much, Scootaloo could never fly all the way to your cloud house, and you're going to join the wonderbolts soon! You'll be too busy to take care of her!"

"... How did you know Scootaloo can't fly well?"

"Uhh... I was... GUESSING! Yeah, her wings are very small! I didn't think they were strong enough for the flight!"

"Well, I guess that makes sense. You're really smart."

"Anyway, what about my other points?"

"Well... I'll learn to cook, I'll carry Scootaloo to the house, and... Scootaloo... is more important than the Wonderbolts will ever be..."

"RD... You'd give up your dreams for her?"

"... Yes, I would..."

"Welcome to being a parent!" I joked. I patted her on the back and she smiled at me.

"Yeah... Besides, I'm sure you'd help me whenever I needed it right?"

"Of course! That's what friends are for!"

"Isn't that what dads are for?"

"Well, yeah I guess. Why, got a stallion waiting for ya?" I winked and nudged her with my elbow.

"... You did not just say that."

"Yeah, I did. Why? Was I right?" She punched me in the chest with her forehoof.

"No. You were not right at all."

"R... Rainbow D-dash?" Scootaloo mumbled wearily. RD pushed me over and I fell onto the floor. I tried to ask why, but she shoved her hoof in my mouth. (Tasted like apples for some reason.) She looked at me and moved her head towards Scootaloo. I nodded in understanding.

"Yeah Scoots, it's me."

"W-where am I?"

"You're in the hospital... You almost died from the cold 3 nights ago..."

"I... I what? I've b-been here for t-three days? H-how did I almost die?!" Her voice was still weak.

"You got really cold really fast. I'm not sure how it works exactly, but it would've killed you if somepony hadn't saved you." I rolled my eyes. You think a weather pony would know about hypothermia.

"S-somepony saved me? I bet it was you... r-right?"

"No, no it wasn't me. I didn't even know you were in trouble... sadly. It was my new friend."

"The one you told me b-beat you in a race? I s-still don't think he's real..."

"Actually I'm very real."

"What?! Who's there?"

"That was my friend."

"W-where is he?"

"Laying on the ground. Now, you can see him, but you have to promise not to scream or freak out ok?"

"Why w-would I do that?"

"He.. looks different from everypony else..."

"W-why does t-that matter?"

"He just... may look a little scary at first."

"Ok Rainbow D-dash. I promise." RD waved to me, and I rose off the ground mummy-style so that Scootaloo could only see my upper body. "Hey y-your that thing Sweetiebelle told me about!"

"Thing? I'm a human. My name is Sharky White."

"Oh, s-sorry. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings..."

"Oh don't worry, I wasn't really offended."

"So... you saved my life? You beat Rainbow in a RACE!? Are you a superhero?"

"BWAHAHAHAHA! No, I'm HA not a superhero! Far from it!"

"Oh don't be so modest Sharky! He fights monsters, AND he got me a position on the WONDERBOLTS! He's awesome."

"Wow! If Rainbow says your awesome it must be true!"

"Yes... well... I'm nothing special really... Anyway, Scootaloo, you can't sleep in that treehouse anymore." Scootaloo's eyes filled with genuine fear.

"N-n-no! I'm n-not going b-back to the orphanage! It was... terrible..."

"No no sweetie, nothing like that!" I cooed gently. "RD here has something she wants to ask you..."

"RD?"

"My name for Rainbow Dash here." I explained. Scootaloo's eyes turned to RD.

"Y-yes?"

"Scootaloo... I learned how much I really cared for you when I almost lost you. I didn't know how much I had... until you were almost gone... I don't want that to happen again... Scootaloo... I really care about you... and I want you to live with me!"

"Y-Y-Y-Y-YOU WANT W-WHAT?!?!?"

*HAAAAAAALLELUJAH!!!*

"What the crap?" I asked. The girls both looked around rapidly.

*HAAAAAAALLELUJAH!!!* I noticed the noise was coming from my pocket.

*HAAAAAAALLELUJAH!!!*

"Huh, I guess I have a call!" I pulled my iPhone out of my pocket, and sure enough Luna was calling me.

"Hi Luna! What's up?"

"Umm? The sky? Why art thou asking simple questions?"

"Nevermind, why did you call?"

"We have thine next mission!"

"Really? What am I hunting this time?"

"... Are there others in the room with thou?"

"Yes."

"Leave, and we will tell you." I nodded to the girls, and left the room.

"Ok, I'm alone. What's the target?"

"An Ursa Minor."
