This has been one amazing week, but a pretty busy one as well. That's right! DJ has been in Equestria in for a full week and nothing bad has happened! He still couldn’t believe that he was there! It's almost just too good to be true. Honestly, though, DJ feared sleeping during the week. He was afraid he would wake up and find himself back on Earth. He never told any of his new friends this, but was pretty sure Pinkie could tell that something was wrong. She asked him about it one day after their lessons, but DJ just told her it was nothing.

Speaking of Pinkie Pie, her training is...different. DJ would love to tell you everything about being Pinkie's student, honest he would. There is only one problem, though. ONLY Pinkie can explain her methods without the entire fabric of reality being shredded to pieces and the universe crumbling away. DJ didn't know if she was serious, but he was not stupid enough to attempt it. When Pinkie looks at you seriously and tells you something like that, YOU BEST BELIEVE HER!!

Don't get DJ wrong, this has been the greatest time of his life. He just feels that one of these days everything is just gonna fade away. And he really didn't want this to all be some lie created by his messed up imagination. It has been amazing, fun, and happy. That's right, happy. For the first time in his life, DJ was truly happy. Please let this be real.

Last night was his 'one weekavisary party', thrown by Pinkie of course, and DJ got his chance to sing and perform in front of everypony again. He didn't know why, but there's just so much thrill in performing for these ponies. Maybe he really could have been show business. Always thought I would make an interesting actor. It's now noon and DJ am getting ready for the day, much to Twilight’s disdain at his lateness. It was the usual routine: wake up, take a shower, shave, and stare in shock at the ominous green smoke appearing in front of him. Wait...WHAT!?

"GAH!" DJ shouted in shock.

"What's wrong my friend?" spoke the smoke. Heh that rhymed.

"Woah, Genie? That you?" asked DJ, recognizing the voice.

"Who else do you know can make such an entrance?" Genie said with smug look as he took form. He stayed relatively small, though, just larger than a loofa.

"Yeah, you'd think I'd get used to the smoke, oh wait! I haven't seen you since you sent me here! Whassup, buddy?"

"Ha Ha! There is that eager face from earlier. I am doing alright, DJ. I am just doing my duty and checking to see if you are settling in well."

"Y-yeah, it's been great. I just graduated from Pinkie school and I'm living in the library until further notice." DJ really didn’t want to talk about his reservations with the very being that sent him to Equestria in the first place. The way he spoke, though, allowed Genie to catch on that something was wrong.

"Was that hesitation in your voice, friend?" Genie asked with a concerned look on his face. "Is everything alright?"

"Well, I've just been thinking lately, and one question keeps popping into my head." DJ had a down look. Pinkie would be ashamed if she saw him like this.

"Tell me what is wrong, DJ, I am your friend."

DJ gave a sigh of resignation and spoke the question that plagued his mind so deeply. “Why me?"

"I'm not sure I understand," Genie responded with an eyebrow raised.

"I mean, why did you appear to me? What makes me so special that you would grant my wishes?" A look of understanding passed over the magical being’s face.

"Ah. So that is the matter. Well, as I told you during our first meeting, I appear before those who feel that they are trapped on their birth worlds. Each being is chosen based off their personalities and their thoughts. Not necessarily their lives, as we believe that their thoughts provide a better insight. Your thoughts are especially strong."

"What do you mean?"

"Your mind, DJ, is very strong. You have uncovered many truths behind the multiverse and world's beyond. Those reservations on time travel and multiversal theories are not too far from the mark. You also began to understand your world at a very early age, a rare trait if I do say so. A dangerous one as well, as it is often harmful to personal relationships."

"Ain't that the truth," DJ muttered.

"I was assigned to you because of your strong thoughts. They allow you to better understand your surroundings as well as others around you. This trait has led many of my brethren to grant the world wish, creating the genie subset known as 'World Genies' and we attempt to bring those minds ease in better worlds. Do you understand what I am saying, my friend?" His face was full of compassion. “You have a great gift that will help not only you, but the others of this world as well.”

After a few moments of thought, DJ looked Genie in the eyes and spoke. "Yeah, I think I do," he said with a small smile.

"That is exactly why you were chosen, you have the ability of great understanding, and in world like this, that is essential."

"Thanks, Genie. My life really has been better since I came here. And now, I think I can put my fears to rest. I really am here; this is all real and I can be truly happy. By the way, I know Discord said there were no problems, but I think I should ask any way. There weren't any problems with that 'fourth' wish you gave me, was there?"

"Ah, friends with Discord as well, hm? Of course the two of you would get along," Genie commented.

"Vinyl, said the same thing," DJ said with a roll of his eyes.

"She's a smart mare. No, there were no major complications, I just had to agree to a few things."

"Like what?" This was getting DJ worried. He did not want the big guy to get in trouble because he was a little selfish.

"One, I had to agree to never do it again." DJ nodded at this as it made perfect sense. "Two, I had to make sure to keep an eye on you." DJ raised an eyebrow. "My superiors are very curious about you, especially those loopholes. They were quite legal by the way, so no worries about things being undone. Very few are able to keep a stable mind in our presence to be able to focus on their wishes."

DJ felt a little proud at that, but kept it hidden. "Thanks, I think. Well, thanks again Genie, for everything. Anything, you need, anything, don't be afraid to ask me. I will always be your friend. And when you can, we need to figure out a time to do something."

"Ahahaha! There's that energetic young man I met on Earth. I will keep your offer in mind DJ and we will meet again, that I know for sure. Until then, my friend." With that he disappeared in a puff of smoke. DJ walked out the restroom, fully refreshed. He turned towards the dining room to see everyone else already eating brunch. They regarded him, eyebrows raised. Twilight was the first to speak.

"Everything alright DJ? You were in there for a pretty long time."

"Yes, Twilight, I'm fine. I am completely fine," he said with a great smile. The others just look at him, more questions no doubt, but they drop it all the same. DJ pulled up a seat and joined them. Yeah, I think everything will be perfectly fine!

**********

It was a normal day for Princess Celestia. Just the usual royal duties: Day Court, taxes, stock lectures, etc. Now, it was her time of the day for peace. Her usual lunch time tea break that she relished every day. One can only be around nobles for so long without needing a break. So here she sat, drinking a lovely cup of tea and having a small slice of cake. DJ had been very generous at his welcome party and allowed Princess Celestia to take all of the leftovers. She, of course, had no problems in do so, but just the very notion made her realize something: DJ knew about her obsession with cake! Now, she felt really self-conscious about seeing the human again. Just thinking back made her think that she was pretty sure, DJ was smirking at her the entire time she gathered up the cake for transport.

Celestia then shook these thoughts from her mind and resumed staring out at her window at the kingdom of Equestria. It looked so beautiful and peaceful from Canterlot Castle. As if nothing would ever be disrupted. This would be false, though.

As Celestia began to take another sip of tea, a green smoke cloud began to pour into the room causing the princess to jump back in surprise. She powered up her horn in preparation to strike as the smoke began to take the form of a human; much larger than her new subject, DJ, but had a wisp of smoke where legs would be.

“Greetings, Princess Celestia,” the being spoke. “There are no need for hostilities. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Genie, granter of wishes.”

Princess Celestia wasn’t sure what to think about this new being. Genies existed in Equestria, but only in myth and legend. Seeing one in pony was certainly a shock. “Hello, wish granter,” said Celestia, relying on her political training. “What can I do for you on this fine day?”

Genie looked out the window for a moment. “Yes, it is gorgeous summer day, isn’t it?” He turned back to the solar princess he smile all, but gone. “I have need to speak with you about my recent charge. You know of him as the human named DJ.” Celestia was shocked; this was magic that allowed the human to make a new start in Equestria. She was awed by this revelation.

“Is there a problem with DJ? I have declared him one of my citizens and, even though it has only been a week, I have yet to hear a single problem arise in Ponyville because him.”

“It is not a problem, per say. It is more like a request that I want to make of you.” Now, Genie had Celestia’s attention. “You see Princess Celestia, my superiors are becoming very cautious of DJ and for good reasons. They sense a great power deep within him; one that not even he realizes. They have tasked me with keeping an eye on him, but I cannot be here all the time. I have other charges stretched out across the multiverse and I need to keep up with them as well. DJ is special, though, being the first one in many centuries to offer me his hand in friendship. His power will only grow here in Equestria, this I am sure.”

Celestia gave the magical genie a look of trouble. She did not want to believe that the man she met would cause any harm to her ponies, but what Genie said was making her worry. He seemed to pick up on it though. “You need not worry so much princess. DJ’s power is not growing to be used on your ponies. It will grow so that he may be able to protect them. You may not have realized this when you met him, but DJ is much smarter than he appears. If he had ever applied himself, DJ might have been considered a prodigy back on Earth. His mind is as complex as the multiverse itself, a fact of which he has almost completely come to understand. This would make him one of very few mortals who have the capability to understand the multiverse, no, the omniverse as a whole.”

“But what does all of this have to do with you and me, Genie? While I appreciate you explaining a few things about DJ to me, I would very much appreciate you getting to the point.”

“Yes, yes, my apologies. Princess, I would like you to watch over DJ whenever I cannot. I have much interest in seeing how far this human can take himself and I believe that it would be beneficial to you as well. He will be a great ally one day, do not miss this chance.”

Celestia thought on this for a moment. Of course, she had already planned on keeping a close watch on the human; that was just out of the safety for her people. But now after hearing everything Genie had to say, she was most intrigued with what DJ may be able to accomplish someday. She regarded the magical being and spoke, “I do not think there will be a problem with that request. I thank you very much for telling me all this Genie. DJ will be in good hooves.”

Genie bowed his head to the Princess. “Thank you, Princess Celestia. I promise you that you will not regret trusting DJ. I believe that he is destined for great things and I know that he could still surprise us. Farwell.” As he spoke, Genie once again returned to smoke and disappeared into the wind. As the Princess watched him go, she thought back on the wish granter’s words with a smile. Celestia had a hero welcomed into her world, she certainly hoped that would be the case.
