Neaera walked alongside the orange, country mare herself, Applejack.

"So, are ya'll ready to get some work done?" Applejack asked

"As ready as ever." Neaera replied "So what are we doing?"

"We gonna buck up some apples."

"Gotcha!" She pulled out a baseball bat.

"Uh... Neaera? What are you-?" Neaera began to stomp on a basket of apples & squish it with her bat, all with some music playing and everything in Slow-Motion. It was ended after Neaera was pulled out with a lasso.

"Oh come on! That scene from Office Space was so funny and relatable... in the 90's, maybe."

"What the hay were you doing!?"

"Bucking up the apples. I figured it was you own way of saying-"

"No, it's not like that, Neaera. Look, just watch what I do." Applejack went to a tree, turned around, balanced on her front legs, and deleived a buck with her hind legs. Some apples fell from the trees and landed on the buckets on the floor. "Heh! Now you try." Neaera blinked, standing up with the rope falling around her. She walked to a neighboring tree.

Maybe we should just cut it down.

No. Follow what she did.

But we're not a pony!

Nor are we a full human.

Neaera fell to her chest, using her hands to pick her up quickly, and she delivered her own powerful buck. Her kick was much more powerful, as the tree's apples fell down... and activated like grenades.

"WHAT THE FU-!?!?!?"

The place around was covered in ashes. Both Applejack and Neaera, though unharmed, were covered in black ashes.

"...Maybe you shouldn't buck apples." Applejack said.

"Agreed."

The two stood near a wagon filled with apples.

"Perhaps ya'll are good with this here wagon." Applejack said "Ah'm certain that mah big brother, Big Mac, won't mind the help."

"Where is he?" Neaera asked.

"Right there." Neaera turned to see the stallion approaching to them. For some reason, time seemed to slow down around the hybrid as her focus was on the stallion. He was bulky, but not too bulky to be clumsy, and the muscles... how he walked, she could see his muscles at work!

What's happening to us!?!?!?

Our Pheromones! Neaera! Whatever you do, don't imagine him naked!!!

"But he already is." Neaera replied, all dreamily. She drooled as she stared... then her nostrils exploded with blood. She ran to him. "NOTICE ME SENPAI!!!" Big Mac screamed and ran away!

"Oh for Pete's sake!" Applejack yelled "Applebloom! Get mah rope!!!"

Neaera was freed from her rope as she was dropped off at Rarity's Boutique. The fancy unicorn answered the door.

"Oh? Neaera? You're here?"

"I am." She replied

"Why, you're looking... pretty, actually."

"Expecting something else?"

"Uh... I was sorta expecting to see more of your father in you. N-not saying it's bad or anything... just saying."

"...uh-huh. ...So... what are we gonna do?"

"I'm so glad you asked! Come along! I'm certain you're going to love this!" Neaera followed Rarity inside. "What is the garment you're wearing, Neaera?"

"This? Oh, just my sports bra and shorts. Turns out, my mom and dad agree that I shouldn't be walking around naked like you guys, but, I feel comfortable going nude, so this is the agreement we have."

"And... you wear that all the time now?"

"More or less. If not, then I'm wearing my costume."

"...Is it similar to your dad's costume?"

"Yep!"

"Figures, but this should work. Can you hold still?"

"Sure." Rarity began to measure Neaera's body. "A little measurement here... some there... I must say, you are quite healthy for you age!"

"I know. Nearly three years old, and I haven't skipped Leg day."

"...you're... only three. Right... forgot about that. Don't you find that weird?"

"Eh, I'm born with it, so I live with it, but, yeah, it's weird."

"And how's your education doing?"

"Considering that I pretty much know all of the periodic table, I say I'm okay."

"Uh huh... well, your dress should be ready in a few hours. I say that this is over."

"Really? Well, that was easy."

"Oh it is, but I expect that you come back tonight?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Good. Now, why don't you head to the salon? Fluttershy's expecting you."

"Ooh! That sounds relaxing!"

Neaera and the shy pegasus sat down together, relaxed with facial cream & cucumbers over their eyes as the Lotus twins gave them their massage.

"Mmm... this is the life." Neaera moaned.

"It is." Fluttershy added "Do you enjoy animals?"

"Well, considering that, despite being part human myself, I'm more or less a vegetarian like anypony else, so maybe."

"Oh... okay. Um... what's it like being a... uh-"

"A pony-human hybrid? Well, considering that I was neither a human, nor a pony to begin my steps of life, I certainly don't know at all. However, I can already tell that my parents are pretty uncomfortable around me."

"Why would you say that?"

"Easy; I'm nearly three years old, yet I have the body of Cat Zingano that happens to be covered in fur. My dad wouldn't mind me, but I have the head of a pony, and I'm covered in fur. My mom wouldn't mind me, but I have the body of a human, not a pony. Basically, both sides didn't get what they want, but a weird hybrid of the two. Sorta like Stanley Kubrick and Steven Speilberg's mixed film: A.I."

"...You really do speak like your father."

"I know, but, unlike my dad, I use more advanced references, and, with my mom, I know when to shut up... also, I don't swear as much."

"Oh, that's good."

Neaera d'waed as she snuggled with the Bear.

"He's like a huge Teddy bear!" She said.

"Harry is like that." Fluttershy replied, giggling at the sight. "Oh, and it's his massage time!"

"I got it!" Neaera jumped over Harry and back kicked the bear! She ran, landed onto it's back, and pulled it's back leg over it's shoulder with a loud 'CRACK', followed by a elbow dropping onto it's back, and lifting it's head up, twisting it! The bear relaxed as she began to do a regular massage. "There, there... you were carrying so much tension in that neck of yours." The bear growled before falling asleep.

"Oh! How did you do that?"

"I binge watched all of the episodes."

"...Okay?" She carried a rabbit. "Bunny?" Neaera stared as the bad memories returned.

"RUN AWAY!!!" She yelled, running away. "RUN AWAY!!!"

Neaera, after some minutes of running, was now calm and with Rainbow Dash, on top of one of the local mountains.

"So... you're afraid of rabbits?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"I don't want to talk about it." Neaera replied with some anger in her voice.

"... I'm kinda surprised that you'd be afraid of a small, adorable-"

"I said I don't want to talk about it."

"... So do you think Angel is the devil?" Neaera gave Dash the death glare.

"... F**k you." She ran and jumped off from the top of the mountain!

"Wait! I didn't tell you what we were doing!!!"

Neaera fell down face first from the peak. All the trees on said mountain whooshed past her, going slow to fast. Truth be told, while she didn't have wings at all, this was pretty much the closest thing she's going to get to flying for a while. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of the wind running past her face, with the sound of her mane/hair flapping, nearly sounding like a cape. Then she heard her horn activate. She opened her eyes as she realized that, though she was falling fast, she was moving forward a bit. Everything stopped as Dash grabbed onto her back. She opened her eyes to see that she was inches from the ground.

"Don't... do... that... again!" Dash panted.

"Don't be making fun of my phobias, then!" Neaera growled.

Neaera and Pinkie Pie sat together, wearing fancy suits and-

"Excuse us, but we're having tea and discussing about the various stocks of both sugar and entertainment, so if you can jump forward a bit, that'd be great."

Oh... sorry, Pinkie. Enjoy... Hey! Wait a min-

Neaera focused magic with Twilight Sparkle. While Twilight watched over her, the hybrid herself sat down and meditated as she reorganized the library, cleaned the place up, prepared a tea set, and sharpened her own weapons, all at the same time.

"I'm glad to see that you're taking your studies seriously." Twilight said. "In fact, I'm quite surprised that you're doing so well for your first time."

"Me too." Neaera replied.

"So, are you ready to learn other forms of spells?"

"...Can they be offensive?"

"Offensive?"

"Not offensive where white people tell that it's politically incorrect, but offensive as in, hurting someone?"

"...Uh... I don't really think so. But I know a few defensive spells."

"I'll take those."

"Okay, just finish what you have to, and we'll-" Everything was put away. "...Okay, looks like somepony's excited."

"You know I am!"

"Alright, let's start with something a bit simple; a shield spell."

"Ooh! Do I conjure up a shield!?"

"...No, it's a bubble shield that protects you from many forces."

"Ah! Gotcha!" Twilight handed her a book.

"Get a glance at it, then we'll-" Twilight was literally blown away as Neaera casted a shield spell around her.

"DONE!!!"

"...Uh... you learned that quickly?"

"Yep!"

"...Okay... I guess I can let you borrow that... and some other spell books."

"Oh please, I'm just gonna need spell books that are good with combat!"

"...We don't have those."

"...crap."

Neaera returned home with plenty of spell books, a tray of cupcakes, a parrot, some apples, a poster around the Wonderbolts, and some bags with new clothes. Deadpool and Luna watched as she entered.

"So... how was today?" Deadpool asked

"Alright." Neaera replied "Got some stuff."

"We see that." Luna replied. "What is it?"

"Oh... just gifts."

"Rack! Gifts!" The parrot spoke

"Shut up!" She placed all the stuff on the table. "Well... I'd like to see what these clothes are." she pulled out a hoodie with Luna's cutie mark on the back. "Ooh! That's neat! Let's see here... pants, socks, shoes, a T-shirt with a chimichanga on it. Hm... I guess I'm going to need a secret identity, as if my pony head won't stick out."

"It's the thought that counts." Luna said, pulling out a newspaper.

"Yeah," Deadpool added "I know what you mean, but I guess that's why the hoodie works. I mean, you saw my face; I needed a hoodie REAL bad!"

"Oh, dad," Neaera said, walking to him and taking his mask off. "there's no need to be ashamed of yourself. We're a family, remember?"

"...I guess you're right. So... do you know what tomorrow is?"

"Hm... oh! My birthday! Yeah!"

"Well... I had a long discussion with your mother. She's not too easy with this, but this is your decision. Tomorrow, you and I are going to my homeworld and we're going to fight a supervillain." Neaera gasped.

"Are we going to fight-!?"

"Yep! Him! You and I are going to do this tomorrow. If you're up to it, then, I guess you're ready."

"Y-You mean it!?" Luna let out a deep sigh.

"Again, your father is right. You should make your choices, not me. But... if today is your last day here... well-" Neaera ran and gave her mother a deep hug.

"I'll be sure to visit!" Luna hugged back.

"I hope like hell you do." They both released each other.

"Sorry, but I gotta study! Don't wanna be-" She fell to the floor and snored.

"Aw, the excitement knocked her out." Deadpool said, picking her up. "...Are you sure you're fine with this?"

"...No... but it is her choice, not mine." Luna replied "I just hope that she's going to do well in there and... well... see us again soon."

"Aw, don't worry! If there's one thing I know, it's that even when a hero dies, they always come back through some cheap Deus Ex Machina bulls**t. Plus, something that neither of us thought of, but we're both still alive!"

"...What does that have to do with her?"

"Well, pretty much almost every superhero ever needs to have one or both parents die tragically to motivate them in doing the right thing. But considering I can't die, even if I wanted to, and you're practically an immortal goddess, then we have nothing to worry about!"

"... I never thought of that."

"So she's going to be the 1% ... make me millions, Neaera."

"Honey..."

"Okay, fine! Just like some more money."
