Author's note: I know some of you my or may not be wondering what time this takes place, etc, so it takes place approx. 3 years after Luna Eclipsed. Fluttershy had upgraded from a cottage to a tree (More room for birds and other critters). Twilight upgraded the library so it has around two or more floors (underground). The ruins of the old castle are just that, ruins. Only walls are up, no more ceiling, save for the main chamber.
Thanks for reading this far, and I AM looking for people to help give me ideas to add on to the story, as well as proofread. Send me a message for either and I'll see if i can get it added.

Also to grammar Nazi's: first fic.. don't kill me with bashing please.

A loud woosh, and a horrible headache brought him back to the real world. his body aching like he had flown against hurricane force winds. He opened his eyes slowly, everything way to bright and extremely blurry. “Sshhh, he’s waking up, Angel” a soft voice said, with a couple of thumps from something in response.

Solar Flare blinked repeatedly, somewhat taking the edge off the brightness, and a yellow pegasus with what he thought was a soft pink mane unblurred itself and entered his vision

“Who... Wha-?” he managed to say before coughing.

“Oh! you must be thirsty! Please try to stay awake.. if you don’t mind” and she disappeared from his sight, with the soft clatter of hooves running down stairs.

He closed his eyes for a few seconds... or so he thought.

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

Four pairs of eyes, the red and green were back, but with a bright white and soft blue next to them. He turned his head to look at the new eyes. Well there’s that... I can move my head... Whoopie..., he thought.

“He’s well built and strong, like a warrior! It should be me this time” said the voice of steel

“His heart is full of darkness, there’s no reason why he would accept you in the first place” whispered darkness itself, into Solar's mind.

“But all I get are the stupid humans! They can’t do anything right!”

“Then why not end them? Save me a load of trouble.”

“Boys, boys! Calm down will you? Giving me a headache... Ruffians.” the white eyes blinked, but the voice itself was full of compassion and happiness. How anyone could be happy here, he didn’t know.

“She’s right, we’ve been like this for two days, I say we let Peace decide. What say you?” said the darkness

The soft blue eyes blinked, and looked him over, like the Red and Green from the time before. Standing back next to the red eyes, it said “His heart has already decided... But didn’t we already settle this at his birth? Why do you want to go against The Curse, War?” Her words alone, calmed everyone there, including Solar Flare

“Because, its not right! I haven't been in command of a pony for so long.. They have been to peaceful for to long! This is an outrage to what we are here to do! We are BALANCE! What are we IF WE CANNOT DO SO!?” the steel voice got louder and louder until like it was hundreds of voices yelling out in battle cries.

“ENOUGH!” The darkness yelled back, the entire area filling with dread and coldness. Every time Solar dared to breathe, his breath was visible. He could tell the other eyes were visibly shaken and worried. Must’ve been a long time since the darkness got that angry....
or loud...Solar thought to himself.

The eyes grew darker and darker until the iris’s where the same color as the pupil, “WE WILL NOT TALK OF THIS ANY MORE, IT WAS DECIDED AT BIRTH. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, KILL OFF THE HUMANS AND RETURN BACK HERE. UNTIL THEN, STAY WITH YOUR HUMANS AND DO NOT MEDDLE IN THE AFFAIRS OF THE PONIES.” The voice was colder then steel, or even the coldest place in Equestria. The temperature was dropping with every syllable .
The eyes all looked toward him, and he heard the white eyes sigh, and look away. “Have mercy... Calm down. What will his transformed name be?”

“His name will be Solar Eclipse.” replied the darkness, obviously more calm from the white eyes talking.

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

“I just don’t know what to do, I’ve tried almost everything to wake him up...” said the soft voice of the yellow pegasus from earlier.

“Looks like he’s waking up now." said another voice.

“Ooo! this calls for a Welcome-back-to-real-life-party!!” said an extremely excited voice, with loud thumps to the ground. Solar thought she was... jumping..?”

“Sorry to burst your bubble sugercube, but ah don’t think he’s ready for that juust yet.” intervened another voice, with a somewhat southern accent.

He opened his eyes quickly, adrenaline pumping through his body in 'flight or fight'. He took off from where he lay, ignoring the pleas of his muscles. He hovered near the ceiling, looking down at the assortment of startled ponies ten feet below him. He looked at his surroundings, trying to remember where he was or what happened... He was flying down.. He went through a cloud... and a thunderstor- THE STORM! His muscles ached at the memory. His gaze moved to the yellow pegasus, and he opened his mouth to speak, when the purple unicorn’s horn lit up, and he promptly felt himself almost thrown at the ground.

“I’ll let you go when you calm down. Do you understand?” she asked matter-of-factly.

“I guess.” Solar replied, throat way to dry to try to say anymore.

He felt the weight of her magic lift up and off of him. “Have some water, I read that when somepony has been asleep for a while, or been what you been through, they’re super thirsty.” as a glass of water floated to him in a purple aura. Solar gladly accepted the water and chugged it down in three large gulps.

“A stallion like yourself must have a name?” asked a white unicorn with a very curly, but perfect mane.

“Solar,” he didn’t know what made him say it, but he did without thinking twice, almost naturally, saying the last part like it was it the entire time he was alive,

“Eclipse.” He finished.

"Well, ahm Applejack, this here is Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and- Fluttershy quit hidin behind Twilight!" said the pony with the southern accent, pointing to each of the others in turn.

Each but one of them stepped up when Applejack called on her name, except for Rainbow who flew around showing off.

"So who was the one that saved me?"

The purple unicorn named Twilight Sparkle moved to the left suddenly, revealing a familiar soft yellow, light pink maned pegasus. Much to Solar's surprise, she squeaked loudly when Twilight moved, trying to hide behind her again. Solar got up slowly, his legs wobbly and unsteady. He made his way forward to the purple unicorn, who parted out of his way to show him the shy pony.

"Thank you." He said. Unsure of what to say next, he looked to the others. He moved his gaze to the nearby stairs, and made his way to them.

"Wait!" Said a soft voice, sounding like it tried to yell but not louder then normal talking. Solar froze at the first step.
"Don't you..um.. need a place to uh.. stay?" the voice said, getting softer and softer till it was barely audible.

"Yes." Solar replied, looking over his shoulder, eyeing the six from his peripheral vision.

"You can.. um.. stay in this room until... um..." and then a soft squeak.

Solar couldn't help but smile. "Thank you."

Rarity stepped up then, asking him,"Might I ask if you have a job or a profession?"

Solar smiled softly. "I used to be a DJ, for about five years. Three of which were under DJ-P0N3, as a teacher, and student. I usually got the crowds warmed up for her. So if it's rent I have to pay, I'll be looking for a club nearby." He chuckled at the last part.
