It was chaos out in the streets as I hid in the locked basement of my home. I was supposed to be at a christmas party today with my family when all this chaos hit. As soon as I turned on my radio to hear what the forecast was and was immediately told of the chaos outside I quickly ran to my basement and hid in a corner. I spent most of the day there before falling asleep there.

“Hello my son. “ a voice said as I jumped up from my sleep.

“Who’s there?” I asked startled see in a white void as far as I could see. “Great I’m hearing things.” I said.

“ Nope you're not hearing things.” The voice said as I looked around for the source. “Maybe this will help” The voice said turning into Robert Downey.Jr

“Robert Downey.Jr?” I asked as he looked at himself confused.

“Well that's new.” he said before saying “No I’m god.” he said.

“No you are Robert Downey.Jr” I said

He facepalmed “No I am God” he said this time while glowing.

“Okay so you are god, why am I here?” I asked

“What do you know about the mayan calendar?” He asked.

“Well it said that the world was going to end tod- this was because of the mayan calendar.” I said.

“Well yes and no. It was actually a test by me ” He said as I grabbed my fist.

“What?” I asked in anger.

“You are the first to actually show anger at this” He said.

“YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE DIED TODAY?” I shouted at him as he started to glow.

“You don’t think I know that?” God said as I felt a sudden coldness down my spine.

“O-oh okay.” I said scared ”Anyway why am I here?” I asked

“You are here because you have passed the test I laid out in the Mayan calendar” He said

“Okay so what the reward?” I asked having a feeling there would be a reward.

“Why do all you humans assume there is a reward? I mean you're not wrong but still!” He said before sighing “What you get is a chance at a new life in a new world so if you chose you may also return to your old world with no memory of this” he said

I thought about it for a good minute my old life was nothing to write home about barely any friends, no girlfriend or wife, and I was alway the black sheep of my family of doctors and other important roles.”I want a new life in a new world” I said

“Before I send you do you want anything in that new life?” God asked

I thought about it for a good few minutes before saying “I want to be smarter like Tony Stark smart” I said.

“That would explain why I look like Robert Downey Jr.” He said “Anyway just a quick warning this will hurt” he said as I felt a slight stabbing pain in my neck

“GAH” I screamed as I rubbed the back of my neck “I feel like there should be blood” I said as I blacked out.

I awoke in a dark place seeing a bright light and hearing voices “Congratulations Ms. Sparkle it's a healthy baby boy” The voice said as I felt dread I was literally given a new life.

“He’s beautiful” The voice of what I guess was my new mom said.

“What are we going to name him sweetheart?” The voice of what I guess was my dad said

“Ark T. Sparkle” My mom said as dad carried me out to meet two people whom I guessed where my new brother and sister

“Shining, Twilight meet your new brother” dad said as I saw a girl who couldn’t be older than five and a teenager standing there.

“What’s his name daddy?”

“Ark Sparkle” he said as the girl whom I guessed was Twilight giggled.

“Hello little brother” she said as the teenager whom I guessed was Shining armor grabbed me from dad

“He’s cute.” he said holding me as I smiled and let out a giggle.

“I think he likes you” dad said a sa doctor came by and grabbed me.

“Now now mr. Night Light let the mother have time with her baby boy” The doctor said as I was brought back to mom.

A few years passed as I was getting into trouble, a year into my life Twilight was accepted into Celestia’s school for gifted kids and brought home my younger brother of Spike who was a dragon. Shining joined the royal guards and I got to see him less and less till he joined the guards here in the city. “I don’t understand what you need all that junk for bro?” Shining asked.

“Simple so I can fix it and use it” I said

“Why do you need five blenders?” Big bro asked

“I never said I had to use them for their purpose.” I said as two bullies from my school came up to us.

“What up nerd?” the bully said

“Could you guys just leave me alone” I said

“What's the matter, gonna cry?” he asked as Shining came in

“Do I need to trap you two in a bubble again?” Shining asked

“Shiny, let me handle this” I said as I reached into my back pocket and pulled something out. “Why don’t we all be friends?” I said lying through my teeth.

“Whatever lo-AGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAG” he was cut of by me holding his arm with a modified joy buzzer on my fingers, the voltage wasn’t enough to kill but it was higher than a regular joy buzzer, the joker may have been crazy but he was also creative.

“You want some too?” I asked the sidekick. “I modified this to shoot lightning too.” I lied as they ran

“Did you really modify that to shoot lightning?” Shining asked as we continues walking home

“No I was just lying.” I said

“Good boy, but I’m still going to need that joy buzzer” he said as I handed it to him as we continued home.

“I told you for the last time! No you can’t see that movie.” Mom said angrily

“But mom everybody in my class is going to see it.” I retorted.

“And if they all jumped off the edge of Canterlot would you want to do it?” she asked

“It depends on the circumstance. If it's as suicide then no, if its bungy jumping yes.” I retorted.

“Don’t get smart with me.” she said.

“So you want me to be like Shining?” I joking said

“Don’t mock your older brother.” She said sternly before sending me to my room.

“Well if I can’t see the movie I guess I have to go to plan b.” I said as I made a dummy out of pillows, grabbed my gear and snuck out the window. The city was so peaceful at night as I made it towards the canterlot castle to sneak into the Star Swirl the Bearded section to study not available for public books. Not even Twilight was allowed here and she has been the student of Celestia forever. As I got to the castle gate I found a small hole I could fit in and it was close to the library , well close that was still a good five minute walk and I still had to avoid guards, luckily I had a small stun gun that could hopefully stun the guards long enough for me to escape if caught. As I made it through the maze I was surprised that the guards pattern where easy to deduce and maneuver around it was almost as if I was walking into a trap. As I made it to the library I found an open window and snuck inside the forbidden section “Okay now to study.” I said grabbing a nearby tome and flipping through the pages.

Hours passed as I went from book to book, placing all that I have gathered and deemed important into my little booklet and I was getting tired “Are you alright little one?” A voice said as I jumped in my seat and pulled out the stun gun. “There is no need for violence here little one.” the voice of Celestia said.

“You're not mad I broke in to your forbidden library?” I asked

“Not at all! You were just the first to make it pass my guards... had you actually hurt somebody then I would be angry but what are you doing here half this knowledge seems advance for your age” she said

“I’m smarter then I look.” I said slightly insulted

“I believe you, you’re Twilight’s little brother right?” she asked as I nodded. “Come let's take you home.” she said as we teleported back to my front door where I overheard mom talking.

“OHH when that boy gets home he’s going to be in so much trouble! I told him not to go to that movie and what does he do, He sneaks out and goes sees that movie!” she said angrily

“Can I hide behind you?” I asked as Celestia nodded as I ran behind her as she rang the doorbell.

“I bet its a guard bringing him back home” Mom said as she opened the door and to her surprise it was Princess Celestia.

“Hello Twilight Velvet.” Celestia said as I popped out from behind her.

“Hi mom.” I said sheepishly as she looked angry.

“Before you yell at your son I should tell you that I found him in my library.”

“You what?” she asked, obviously confused.

“He has a thirst for knowledge that could rival your own daughter.”

“He what?” she asked again confused.

“Hey honey I couldn’t find him at the movie...Oh princess Celestia welcome did Twilight do something?” Dad asked

“Actually I was here to talk to you about your son Ark.” Celestia said.

“Oh boy, what did he do now?” Dad asked

“He broke into forbidden section of Canterlot Library and took notes.” Celestia

“Oh you are in so much trouble” Mom said as I tried to run.

“Actualy I want to reward him” Celestia said as Mom and Dad looked at her in disbelief.

“He broke into your castle and you want to reward him?” Dad asked.

“When you put it like that it almost sounds like me rewarding him is a bad thing.” Celestia said before I she pushed me in front of her “What I’m trying to say is half the knowledge he copied would go over his head yet he completely understands it better he found a way to improve some of it. What I was proposing was that he take an after school lesson from me, It's nothing like your daughter but it still will be a learning experience.” Celestia said as My mom’s mouth just stayed open Dad quickly closed her mouth so she could speak.

“We will have to talk to eachother about this but we are sure it would be best for him.” she said as Celestia took her leave. “House now” mom said angrily.

“Yes mam” I said as I walked into the house.

“I’m going to say this first we are going to let you go to that after school thing with Celestia because it would be a good experience for you but that's all you're going to be doing as you are grounded for the next two months.” mom said as I tried to speak “ don’t try to defend yourself while I am glad you didn’t go see that movie you still snuck out and broke into private property you’re not getting off easily.” she said as I just walked to my room. “Oh by the way no napping it's a school day” mom said.

“Okay mom.” I said walking to the kitchen for breakfast yawning.
