Magic: the Gathering, Friendship is Magic -I think?-
Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Getting stoned Sucks!
Load Full Story Next Chapter"3,452, 3,453, 3,454, 3,455....
"Ummm J-man what are you doing?" I heard the statue next to me ask.
"3,465, 3,466, I'm counting the leaves on the hedge in front of me, 3,467, 3,468.... I replied to him as I continued counting
"Ok then next question, why are you counting the leaves for the past week now? Yesterday you counted 4,577 leaves and day before that, 5,783. Why are you counting leaves for the whole day and restart the next day??”I sighed and mentally turned my focus to the talking statue,
"Because Discord, I'm keeping my mind busy with counting the leaves so I don't go insane from boredom, and to why I keep restarting my count every day well the ponies that tend to the garden comes around and clip the hedge and I lose my place when counting so I had to restart my count. I told him. Being a statue next to the spirit of chaos is annoying as hell.
"Now if you don't mind I'm going back to where I was…” I looked back to the hedge for a minute and screamed in anger, "DAMMIT DISCORD I LOST MY PLACE AND NUMBER BECAUSE OF YOU!! I yelled at him as he laughs like a hyena at me. I groaned and turn my focus up to the sky.
Discord may be an annoying ass and random at times but he was someone to talk to and I mean Talk to. Other than him I been the statue for other people -pony- to vent, talk to since they thought I was just a weird statue. Some of my favorites were a gardener who was in training. She was nice to listen to and I didn't know that some pegasi are not in the sky all the time some like to be on the ground, the more you know.
There's was also some guards that were alright and some nobles too. Mostly they can't hear me say rude things to them. But most of the time they just say how bad I look and try to get the Princess to get me removed. And every time she said no.
Celestia, she was also one who comes to talk to me at times. She used to have most fun stories to tell at times. She also vents to me about the nobles that came to ask her requests and get shot down and about Blueblood. Note to self: Shoot Blueblood with a forked lighting up his ass until he sounds like a mare. Celestia used to have funny stories to tell and some heartfelt one that brings a smile to me.
Used to.
About 1,500 years ago I used to get another Princess to listen to her talk and vent at, her name is Luna and it sucks to watch her slowly drive herself into madness. At some nights, she comes to cry at my feet for a few hours. I really want to give her a big hug and tell her that everything is going to be ok, that everything will be better the next day, but I'm a statue and can't do a thing. Uncle of the year folks, uncle of the fucking year.
"Ummm not to interrupt your sap story but the readers have no idea who you are and how you got here in Ponyland J-man . Discord said
"Discord how many times I have to tell you not to break the 4th wall! I said to him with some anger in my mental voice. I honestly felt him shrug at me weird.
"Hey I'm trying to get this story moving and you rambling.”
I wanted to yell at him some more but he did have a point. I'm rambling and getting sad at what I said so anyway as they say "let's get this show on the roll!" I think that what they say it?
Hello! My name is Jace Beleren, Master of the 5 Colour manas, Caller of the elements, The Summoner, and Uncle to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. But before all that I was a normal human named Nick Smith -great name, I know- did a normal boring 6am to 9pm job and what not and lived a normal boring life. Until my friend roped me into coming to a PAX Prime con…
A Very long time ago, in the human world
"What are you wearing Jeff??" I asked my friend that is wearing a read Master Chief costume and holding a fake shotgun. He looked at me with "are you kidding me" look. It's hard to tell since he's wearing a helmet that covers his face.
"Really dude, you don't know who I am? I'm Sarge!" Jeff said as he turned to and spread his arms out and pointing the gun up so he didn't hit anyone. I gave him a deadpan look.
"The guy that yells 'Suck it, Blues!" I raised my eyebrow at him and he dropped his arms and sighed.
"The red guy from the Red vs Blue show on the internet," he said with less excitement in his voice. I tilt my head to think of what show he's talking about.
"Is that the other show by the same people who did RWBY?" I said as I looked around at the other people in costume. I even saw a steampunk Darth Vader costume which was really cool. Jeff looked up and pulled his helmet off and glared at me with his green eyes, with his military haircut he did look like someone from the Halo games.
"Really, I thought you seen all the show's by now, I keep on sending you links to the website, I think you just need to say to stop and I will." he said as he put the red helmet on a belt hook, I snapped my eyes at him with a glare.
"Oh sorry I don't have a lot of time since I'm not off duty for a few months." I don't know why but the way I said that and my glare made him jump. I chuckled at him. He’s been in the army for about 5 years and I still make him jump. After a few minutes, he started to laugh
"Sorry, sorry I forgot about that you don't have a lot of time anymore since you just got off of school a month and a bit ago." he said with a smile, he took a step back from me and took a once over and raise an eyebrow at me.
"Ok my turn to ask, who you suppose to be?" Jeff asks, I looked down at my dark blue clothes with white lines, with belts, some metal clasps and buckles with red symbols on them, all I don't have for my costume is a cloak.
"I'm Jace Beleren from the Magic: The Gathering game, he's a planeswalker from the game, I spent a long time getting the costume ready and everything." I found an online costume maker that do a rush job for mine. I was an amazed how well it turn out all but one thing.
"She did a fantastic job, but due to the fact it was a rush job I didn't have a lot of money left for a cloak." I grumbled Jeff came around me and put a hand on my shoulder.
"Hey you still look badass dude that I have no idea who he is, anyway we got to get going there's a con to go to!" he said as he started to jog to the front doors. I look at the building and gave a happy sigh and started to walk to the doors, and stop when my gut pulled away from the doors.
You see I follow my gut feeling when it happens to me and it comes in handy at a few times and it was happening now, mostly saying that to not go into the building for anything. After a minute of thinking of the choices of each hand. On one hand if I follow my gut and leave I would have wasted $250 dollars for a plane ticket to here and another for one back and twice that amount for a rush costume job. So a waste of a lot of money.
On the other hand I go in and maybe have the time of my life waste some money to get some nice stuff and see some good -or bad- people and I had nothing to lose. So I open the door and went in thinking 'So I'm going against what my gut say what could go wrong?'
It was loud, it was big, and there's was a lot of people. I never been to a con before so I never saw how everything works and I don't do well in crowds but other than that I had a lot of fun. I got to meet some people who took some pictures of me I had to ask them if they had a dark blue cape I could use for the photo since I was using an unfinished costume but no one had one but they said even without the cloak it was really good so I gave them the website for the lady who made it give her some more customers.
After that I went to look around the booths to see what they have. I even saw Jeff with some people wearing what I guess is the characters from the Red vs Blue show. As I'm walking I saw some booths that dealt with some tabletop games such as D&D, Warhammer, and Magic: The Gathering. I got myself a fake cane sword with a raven's head for a head and a gauntlet with five gems in it from someone who makes stuff for Magic: The Gathering. He said that Planeswalkers use them to tell how much mana they have and can use. In other words the brighter the glow, the more mana I have. He told me that I could have the one that the gems light up but I like how this one looks so I took this one.
After what seems an hour of looking I came up to a booth that sells some random stuff. There was an iPhone with a World of Warcraft case, a clockwork pistol, a dagger with a demon on it, and other stuff but what threw me for a loop was the man behind the table. He was wearing a costume of the Merchant from Resident evil 4 that gave me the creeps. He looked at me and spoke in a heavy and grating voice.
"Welcome! Welcome, do you see anything and catches your eye?" I looked at him and blinked. He sounds like the merchant from the game that he could be from the game. I shook my head.
"I don't know, give me a second please." He nodded and waited which sends a shiver up my spine, he's too creepy to stick around. I gave a once over to see anything and my eyes came to a fabric that made my eyes go wide. It was a Dark blue cloak with a white border around where the head goes. It was the cloak that goes with my costume and I can't believe it was right there in front of me. The man looked at the cloak I was looking at and gave me a chuckle.
"Ahhh yes that is a great pick, my good sir." He pulled the cloak down and handed it to me to see up close, I could not believe my luck to find this cloak here it was perfect and I was holding it in my hands. But my gut feeling have other plans as it said to put it down and walk away from the booth. I thought about it and frowned a little. I had the same gut feeling out front but if I didn't go in I wouldn't have found this cloak I look up to the merchant.
"How much?" I asked
The man looked at the cloak for a minute and then at me, "Well that cloak right there is $150 dollars," I frowned at the cost I spent a lot today for the other two I got this was pushing it.
"But since you are in a Jace, the memory adept costume minus the cape I will lower it to about $50 dollars." My eyes widened. That was more the half off the normal price just for the fact that I had the right costume on. I looked down at the cape and my gut feeling came back shouting at me to give it back and walk away from the booth now. I was in a moment that seems to last forever thinking and came to one thought. ‘Fuck it.’
"I'll take it." I then handed the man the money.
As the man took the money I was busy putting on the cape. As I was putting it on I saw that not a lot of people was walking near this booth which was odd. As I clipped the last part of the cape on and looked at the man I saw him chuckled a bit and look at me.
"It looks nice on you, I hope you have a nice trip." I gave him a questionable look. Trip what trip?
"What do yo-" I begin to say when I bright light that blinded me as I screamed and then I had a sense of falling.
Present time, still stoned
And So that is how I got to Equestria and got a free falling lesson with no parachute in the same deal. To make some of my long story short as in how I got hear I was testing out a spell with the Elements of Harmony to see if I could store them in some boxes as an "Elements of Harmony blast in a box! use once" deal. That was a big fat no as the blast hits me instead and I got stoned. Luckily I didn't have to get to the bathroom or had an itch somewhere before I got hit since I was awake for the thousand I was a statue that would have sucked.
As I looked around I see many ponies moving around quickly and guards too which was puzzling I shifted my gaze to Discord.
"What's going on?" I asked as two guards ran by and one of them clipped me with one of their spears. Rude.
"Hmmm? Oh yeah right so as you were doing your monolog about you past or whatever everyone in the castle is getting ready for the Summer Sun Celebration that's being held in a town somewhere, Townsville I think." I mentally frowned at him.
"That's Ponyville you know P.O.N.Y.VILLE get that threw you messed up head you son of a-" Wait. if the Summer Sun Celebration is closing in then it's around the start of the My little pony show. Well, at least I know where I am in the timeline.
"Yup and I know where this is going, *sigh* and I still gotta wait till season 2." I was about to ask him what he means until I heard it. ‘CRACK, CRACK, CRUMBLE!’ I looked and at my arm where the guards spear hit me. It was cracking and I started to feel my arm. I couldn't help but smile. Yes! I was getting out!
"I hope you fall on your face." I heard Discord mutter to himself. I again but smile at him.
"Hey you did say that you're getting out in season 2 so hang in there, but for right now, I. AM" ‘CRACK, CRACK, BOOM!’ "FREEEAAHHHHHHHH!"
SMACK!
I fell over and said hello to the ground with my face. I groaned from my pain as I sat up. I heard Discord laughing his ass off in my head.
As I stood up and stretch my arms, back, and legs and to hear them pop I looked down at my gauntlet I wore on my left arm to see that all 5 gems were dark but after staring at it for a minute the green and white gems began to faintly glow. Meaning that both my green and white mana were recharging. Normally a planeswalker gets their mana back by focusing in a place where that colour of mana flows. But since I have mastered all 5 of the colours I can get them by just walking through where there is some such as a garden or the beach.
As I was moving my arms and legs around I heard some heavy footsteps come closer to where I am. I guess those are the guards that heard the big BOOM and my yelling here. Oh, look here they come to! As I watch as three guardsmen rounded a corner to see pieces of stone on the ground and me with a big goofy smile on my face the middle one, an earth pony I guess- pointed his spear at me.
"HALT by the order of Princess Celestia you are under arre-" I walked up to him used a giant growth spell and backhanded him about 3 feet to my left as he landed into a bush. I smiled and looked to the guard to me right, a pegasus mare that was wide eyed at me since I K.Oed her squad mate with one hand.
"Now be a good a good pony and take me to Princess Celestia if you could so kindly." Oh, gods, it's good to be Back!
