Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Meet the Rainbooms/The Truth

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

After Toxigo and Applebloom left the campsite with Toxigo helping Applebloom move, what with a broken foot and all, they started a conversation as they walked on the sidewalk.

"So, wait, what's your name again?" Applebloom asked.

"Toxigo Paralysis. Pleasure to meet you Applebloom." Tox smiled.

"So... wait, how exactly did you do all of that?" Applebloom asked.

"Do what?"

"Fight the Dazzlings?" Applebloom asked.

"Dazzlings?" Tox laughed. "That's their name? That's... incredibly stupid."

His laughing dropped to dead silence and looked forwards as they continued to walk away. Toxigo didn't want to admit who he was to her, but he knew he couldn't erase any of those images from her head, so he had to be honest.

"Magic."

That was all Toxigo had said to her as they continued on. Eventually as they hit the town, Toxigo pulled out a phone from his pocket and handed it to Applebloom.

"Here, you should call your sister, she'll want to know you're okay."

Applebloom then took the phone, dialed in the number and gave Applejack their location. Soon, a truck came by driven by Applejack who had found them.

"Oh good heaven's you're alright!" Applejack exclaimed, being happy to see her sister. "They didn't hurt you did they?"

"No, but what they wanted me for isn't good."

"But why did they take you?" Applejack asked?

"Because they wanted to get back into Equestria using the portal in the statue, and the only way they could see on getting back was for them to take someone you all care for, and use him or her as leverage so you'd let them out." Toxigo explained.

"Oh, its you. Well, thank you kindly for saving my sister." Applejack said thanking him.

"Not a problem." Toxigo replied. But Applebloom gestured to Applejack she wanted to talk alone about something.

"Uh, can you excuse us for a moment?" Applejack asked. Toxigo just simply nodded and let them talk in private.

"Sis, while I'm thankful he saved me, there's something off about him. He used... magic." Applebloom whispered

"What do you mean, he used magic?"

"Back at school during that fire, he rose into the air, and he ponied up just like you!"

Applejack looked back at Toxigo who just stood patiently, and then her attention was back at Applebloom.

"Okay, I'll talk with him about that. Maybe he'll explain how that's possible."

Applejack then turned to face Toxigo.

"Do you need a ride back to your place?", Applejack asked politely.

Toxigo gave one nod, and went into the backseat, while Applebloom went to the shotgun seat. The ride back to Applejack's farm so she could drop Applebloom off was silent the entire time. No one said a word, and barely anyone moved a muscle. Applejack just kept her hands on the wheel, and kept her eyes on the nightly lit road. So after stopping at her home, Big Mac came from the house and helped Applebloom into the house. Then Applejack talked to her granny, or Granny Smith in this case, and so Applejack walked back to the truck. Toxigo then moved himself to the front seat of the vehicle, and they got back out on the road again... in awkward silence.

Until Applejack broke the silence.

"So, uh, Applebloom told me you used magic to stop them. Is.... is that true?" Applejack asked trying not to sound suspicious.

"....Yes."

"Oh, well, uh... How, did you use magic, exactly?"

"Its magic, you don't need to explain it."

Applejack was a little agitated at that response. "Okay, I'm going to be honest with you. Applebloom told me you used some form of magic, and I know that you saw everything that had happened at the Friendship Games with Twilight being forced to unleash the magic"

"I still question how no one was paying attention to the plants entering from the portals when their attention was on the games. Seriously is everyone just nonchalant they see giant monsters like yesterday's thing?"

"You're getting off-track here. She saw you use magic, I know she's telling the truth, and you've got to tell me what happened."

Toxigo didn't respond after that, he was afraid of what she might say. "Applejack. I would honestly, tell you the truth. I would, but.... every time I told the truth, it ended up going up in my face. Besides, what makes you think you'll believe I'm being honest with you?"

Applejack then responded with, "I'll know when you're telling the truth. And you don't have to be afraid. I'm not gonna judge you for what you'll say."

Toxigo then paused for a second, gave a sigh, and then answered with, "Alright. I'll tell the truth. But, can't it wait until tomorrow? I'm a little tired, I've been fighting three attractive women who can't sing for three hours."

Applejack pause for a moment, and decided if he wasn't going to talk tonight, it be worth him talking tomorrow. "You swear you'll talk tomorrow?" she asked.

Toxigo replied with "I promise with my one working eye."

Applejack then simply said "Fine". She didn't know if he was gonna be honest or not, but if he was gonna talk tomorrow, it'd still be worth getting some answers out of him. And who knows, maybe they could learn a little more on this strange person.

So she dropped him off at his place, following which she returned back to her home. Toxigo then entered his home, and slid against the door onto the ground landing on his butt thinking about what he was going to do. He was going to be found out, and he had no where else to go.

"Great... I'm screwed."


The next day at school was much more peaceful than what had happened with the fire. The students continued their lives as normal, but they couldn't keep their minds off of one thing. Students saw a synthetic limbed guy run through fire without getting a scratch, and all continued to let that boggle in their mind.

Outside Toxigo approached the school. It was now 7:45, just 15 minutes before school started. He stood still in fear of what their reactions might be if they had found out he was something much more. So slowly walking in, he kept a lookout for if anyone was calling for him, luckily no shout outs were being called.

The trip down the hallway, was pretty awkward though. Students gave a few stares to see him, but they didn't say anything mean. They just gave a few hellos and compliments on his actions, and left him alone.

Why does everybody know me here!? I'm just a new kid!


As time went by, he couldn't help but notice himself sweating like crazy just over the stress of revealing who he was to Applejack. He hadn't ran into her yet, but he could only imagine she would call him out on it. But there was still time before they would ever get to a break session.

But even in the classroom, he couldn't focus on his own work. He was too busy staring at the girl right in front of him, Sunset Shimmer. The fiery hair, the orange skin, she was the most beautiful thing in the world... If only he could get closer to her...


The bell had rung, and it had gotten close to lunch time. However, just as Tox was about to head to class, he caught sight of the same cowgirl walking on over to the practice room. An ample opportunity had opened up, and now he was gonna take it. So, he turned to the side, and gave a knock on the door.

"Hello?" Applejack called.

"Uh, Applejack, its me. Toxigo, you wanted me to explain myself yesterday, I kept my word." Toxigo responded.

"Oh, come on in."

Toxigo then opened the door and entered in, but to his shock there were a few other girls standing in the room. In the room with Applejack was Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, Twilight, Flash, and the ravishing Sunset Shimmer. He got such a huge shock that his back hit against the door and slid down again. "You never said anything about there being others", Toxigo replied sounding annoyed beyond all belief.

"I figured we would want to hear what you had to say about using magic."

"Next time tell me these things so I would be ready." he responded.

So Toxigo got back up, brushed the dust off of his clothes.

"So... am I gonna be left in the dark as to who they are?"

"Oh my apologies darling, I'm Rarity. Pleasure to meet you." Rarity shook hands with Tox's titanium skinned hand.

"That's Rainbow Dash..." Applejack replied as Tox shook hands with Rainbow.

"I'm Flash. Nice to meet you." Flash smiled.

"Pleasure to meet you as well Sentry." Tox replied.

"And that's Pinkie, and--"

"Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer. No need to tell me their names." Tox replied. "I already met Sunset, and I know Twilight from the... Friendship Games... incident." Tox hesitantly replied.

Twilight blushed with embarrassment out of remembering that event.

"You... know about that?" Twilight asked.

Tox nodded with a sad face. "Yeah, I do. I still can't believe they had the audacity to do that to you. You're okay, right?"

"Yeah I am. Now that I'm attending this school. So, wait, you're a former Shadowbolt, when did you leave Crystal Prep?"

"I left Crystal Prep around near the end of the year. The amount of abuse I had been suffering was beginning to be too much until I snapped, yelled at Cinch saying I'm out of her precious school, away from her precious reputation, and never came back. From that moment, I devoted myself to never going near CPA, that way I wouldn't have to suffer any more." Tox replied.

"Well as much as we'd like to hear more about you, I think you still need to explain what my sister saw you do." Applejack replied.

Tox's face drooped slightly, and so, he took a deep breath, and finally was ready to reveal his secret. "Okay, uh.... This is hard, I.... I want say this right." Toxigo started off.

"Sugarcube, it will be alright. We're not gonna judge you."

"Okay, uh... Well, you know at the Friendship Games, there was the attack from that raging she-demon firing portals at Canterlot High because Cinch blackmailed Twilight into using it to win just a petty competition which resulted in everyone's lives in danger?"

"Yes...." Applejack raised a brow.

"Well, if you think I'm just one of the students now aware of the magic existence, you're wrong. I know what that was. That was Equestrian magic, and all of the magic that was being fired was used to open up portals into Equestria. The one chance I could have taken for me to escape, but I didn't take it. There is too much going on here in this world and I can't return back."

The Human Seven paused for a moment. They were all thinking the same thing the minute he brought up Equestria to them. Could he really be, from Equestria?

"Wait, wait a minute. How do you know about Equestria?" Sunset asked.

"Because I know you are from Equestria, Shimmer-cakes. So am I."

Sunset's face drooped in shock after hearing that response, and she blushed after being called that. "Wha-wh... What? And Shimmer-cakes, really? But wait, what do you mean you're from Equestria?'

Toxigo took a deep breath, faced them right in the eye, and said. "I, Toxigo Paralysis, am a unicorn. From Equestria. The only reason I'm here in this dimension is because I've lost everything I had in Equestria and I wanted to escape my past and come here to begin a new life. However, I've made some bad decisions when I came to this world which led me to Crystal Prep and to me losing some limbs, and anger busting out, and all right up to where we are now." Toxigo finally said and turned his head away in case of angry or over the top reactions.

For a while, the room went silent. No one said a word, no one moved a muscle, no one made a sound. They had all taken in what he had just said. Their newest student, who they only heard was tormented by their rival school, more than Twilight, and possessed magic to save Applebloom, was from Equestria. The only question that came to their minds, is he really a unicorn from Equestria, or is their new student something more sinister?

Sunset's face was drooped in shock. She hadn't considered the idea of anyone else being from Equestria living in this world. Applejack however could tell from the tone in his clear and somewhat raspy voice wasn't lying, and so she approached him.

"Thank you."

"For what? Spilling the only thing that kept me awake every day to a bunch of girls I don't even know. And Shimmer-cakes?"

"No, you were being honest with us. And we were honest with you saying we wouldn't judge you."

Suddenly out of nowhere, Applejack rose in the air and she ponied up again, only to be followed by Toxigo who gave a green glow with the transformation, sprouting the ears, and tail again.

"Wait... you just... ponied up..." Sunset asked sounding like she had just seen a ghost.

"Okay, I don't know why I'm floating in the air along with you or growing horse ears or the ponytail, but at this point, I stopped questioning things because I've had a pretty weird day yesterday, and I can only imagine its gonna get even weirder as time moves on. But... if any of you know about this, I'm more than willing to hear it." Tox replied sounding more than annoyed.

"I do actually. All of us pony up when we're showing the truest part of ourselves, which allows us to do just that." Sunset said. After that, Toxigo's ponytail evaporated and his ears transformed back into place, and now they all finally began their conversation again.

"So...you're...you're from Equestria?" Sunset asked nervously

"Yes, I am Sunset."

"How long...."

"Been here for 6 years now, but I don't know how old I am in this human body. I know I'm still young, that's for sure. And if you think I've been planning on world domination, don't. I would have done something by now. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to head off and get some food. See you girls later I guess, and have a nice day."

Toxigo then left the room leaving the Rainbooms and Twilight alone, questioning everything that had just happened. Oh and Pinkie was chewing on a cupcake. But she did see something odd. Sunset had been blushing at the sight of Toxigo, and when she was called 'Shimmer-cakes', which led to a thought inside Pinkie's mind, Does Sunset have a crush on him?
