Gift to you

Cybe walked out of the forest with Dinky leading him towards Ponyville. As they entered town Cybe received some hostile glares, but that was to be expected. As long as they didn't form a mob or start attacking him he could handle the negativity. Once Dinky spotted her mother she said goodbye to the cyborg and he gave a gentle wave as she scampered off. Looking up at the beautiful day sky he took in a breath of the fresh clean air that this land was blessed with, as Dressias air was filled with pollution.

He walked around until he came to the Golden Oaks Library. He knocked the door and Twilight opened it. "Oh, hello Cybe. What can I do for you? Is anypony giving you any trouble?"

"Hello Twilight. There is no trouble with the ponies, just a few glares. I was actually looking for Princess Cadence." She nodded and motioned him in.

"So, what business do you have with my family old foal-sitter?"

"I have something I need to give her, it's from her brother." Twilight stopped dead in her tracks and turned to him.

"What?"

"I have a message that her brother asked me to give to her. I didn't get a chance the other day because of the whole chase and everything, so I'd like to deliver it now if she's still in town." Twilight just looked at him with shock.

"She's still in town, she's at Sugarcube Corner with Princess Celestia." Cybe nodded and walked to he door.

"Thank you Twilight. I will be over later to discuss what you are planning to do with that C-Unit." With that he walked out the door.


Celestia and Cadence sat in a window booth in Sugarcube corner while eating slices of chocolate cake. Cadence had been staring out the window ever since they had gotten there with a blank expression. "Cadence, what's the matter?"

Cadence sighed and looked to Celestia. "I'm sorry auntie, I'm just thinking about Glowing Heart. The letter that was supposed to be delivered if he was killed in the war hasn't shown up yet."

"I believe I can help with that your majesty." The two mares looked over to see Cybe standing there.

"How would you be able to help with this?" Asked Cadence. Cybe reached into his pocket and pulled out the folded piece of paper. He handed it to Cadence who slowly unfolded it. As she read she began to tear up, Cybe sat beside her and brought her into a hug as she began sobbing.

"How did you get this?" Celestia asked him as she read the note.

"I met Glowing Heart when I reached the shores of Equestria. We talked for a bit and quickly became friends. After resting for a night we began traveling towards his outpost that was few mile from his camp. We reached a crossroads and parted ways, me taking a path that led inland while he took the path to his military base. While I was walking I heard blaster fire. I rushed back to Glowing but it was too late, he had suffered a fatal wound. He gave me the note and asked me to deliver it to Princess Cadence and to try and have a normal life here in Equestria. After that I brought his body to the military base and went on my way." Celestia nodded at the explanation and sighed.

"I'm sorry that the first friend you ever had was killed Cybe." Cybe waved her off and began stroking Cadences mane with his claw.

"It's fine, he gave me more of a reason to try and fit into Equestrian society. Even if I get a few glares along the way."

"They'll get used to you eventually, that I can promise." Cybe nodded. "Oh! And we figured out your living arrangements." Cybe looked to Celestia expectedly. "You will be staying with Fluttershy, she one of the few ponies that applied for the position and you seem to already be on friendly terms." Cybe smiled.

"Thank you Princess."

"I should warn you about your...other roommate though..."


"You invited a cyborg to live with us?!" Discord yell d as he read the contract. "What in the world has gotten into you Fluttershy?!"

"Discord, Cybe is friendly. I've already told you about how he saved me from those mean cyborgs. And when you didn't believe me you view the past and witnessed it yourself." Fluttershy flew up to the spirit of chaos who was sitting upside down on the roof.

"I know Flutters but I never thought you'd have a killing machine move in with us!"

"Discord! How dare you!"

"What? It's the truth. He knows it himself. He is literally built for war Fluttershy, I'm just trying to protect you." Discord wrapped his claw around the mare and pulled her in. "You're like a frail butterfly, you can't defend yourself so others have to protect you." Fluttershy pushed Discord away and looked him in the eye.

"Ok then, I didn't want to have to bring this up but...you're acting just like my friends when you were trying to reform." Discord just narrowed his eyes.

"What are you implying?"

"Don't you remember how bad all those horrible comments about you were made? How nopony trusted you? If you keep making those kind of comments to Cybe then he'll feel the same way." Discord shrank down...literally. "Now you are going to act nice to him and not threaten him in any way, are we clear?" She asked in an authoritative tone.

"Yes ma'am." Discord gave her a small salute.

"Good. Now when he gets here you are to make him a guest room, I'm going to get dinner ready." Discord watched as Fluttershy flew down to the floor and trotted into the kitchen.

"It's official...I'm whipped."
