Huntik: Titans Of Equestria
Chapter 7: Chapter 7 returning to Ponyville
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI walked through the castle looking for Celestia so I could apologize to her and say I’m sorry and I couldn't find her anywhere she wasn't on the dining room the throne room I couldn't find her anywhere then I found a maid.
“Hey do you know where I can find Princess Celestia?” I asked and she went deep into thought and then answered.
“Last time I saw her she was in the garden having tea she might still be there.” She said and I made my way through the castle and outside and I found the garden and Celestia and Luna were sitting at a table drinking tea and eating small cakes and I walked up and sat in a unoccupied chair and I looked at Celestia.
“Celestia I just wanted to say sorry for yesterday.” I said
Celestia looked up at me with sorrow filled eyes.” I am also sorry I shouldn't have brought it up I thought I could help you.” She said
After a few moments Luna poured me some tea and but a few cubes of sugar in it.
“Thank you I enjoy tea.” I said as I drank some tea and I relaxed in my chair and I looked around at the garden that surrounded us there were flowers of all kinds and then Celestia said.
“I have arranged for you to go back to ponyville today so you can visit Twilight and the others we have finished the test even though there are a few more to do but we have what we need to run them so I don't really need to keep you here and we have the bits you wanted.” She told me and she put down her tea.
“So how much is it?” I asked and and a drank some more of my tea.
“35000.” She said and I spit out my tea
“That is without the bits that the rulers left behind for you so another 1000.” She said adding even more shock to my face.
“It was all placed in a enchanted bag to hold it all so you can carry it with ease and you should be going the train will arrive in an hour so you should get ready to leave and we will see you at the gala.” She said finishing what she had to tell me and I got up and left and got everything and wrote a little reminder for myself to get new clothes from Rarity.
After packing everything the guards gave me what looked like a coin purse and said it was the enchanted bag and I put it in my pocket and ran to the train station and boarded the train.
After boarding I found a seat and relaxed for the long ride that was between me and Ponyville.
After reaching ponyville after two hours of sitting on a train and when I got off my butt was sore and my back aches a bit but it went away after a bit of walked through town and that reminded me I needed to get a place of my own maybe somewhere near the apple farm so I can visit her easily.
I walked to town hall to maybe find a place to stay after walking in I saw the mayor assistant she had green fur and a blond mane she sat at a desk and was looking at some papers.
“Hey is the mayor free right now?” I asked and she looked up and then back to the papers.
“Yes she is free her office is upstairs first door on the right.” She said and I followed her directions. And walked into an office and saw the mayor She had a white mane and what looked like a streak or two of grey and he fur was a beige color I think.
“Hello I was wondering if there a a house of a piece of land near the apple farm I could buy?” I asked and she jumped a bit from surprise she didn’t hear me enter and she calmed down a few moments later and looked at me then at a map on ponyville she had on her desk.
Yes but multiple ponies have moved out of it because of complaints some even say it was cursed by some kind of ancient entity so not only is it vacant it is also very cheap it is only 50 bits because of the troubles it has caused.” She said and I pulled out the 5 bits so now I only have 35950 bits left and now I have a new place but my forutain should go down when I buy the furniture and start paying bills but for now I guess I can live comfortably and I can still get a job with Applejack.
The mayor lead me to the house and I asked. “I thought you said this was a house not a fucking mansion.” I said and she rubbed the back of her head.
“The first owner of this place was a noble who was assigned to watch over ponyville and cloudsdale but because of whatever ever cursed this place he moved out and it has had several owners over the last hundred years.” She said shyly and I sighed.
“Ok then I will see what I can do about this curse I can’t remove it but I might be able to seal it away for a it with one of my powers.” I said and I stepped towards the house and I could immediately feel the malicious energy here it would take all my power just to seal it for a half an hour.
I took a deep breath and held out my arms and said.” BaneBound.” I said and the orange light surrounded the house and I could feel my strength being sucked away by this power and a beam of orange light shot towards the sky and the orange light around the house faded and I fell to my knees and mayor mare came to help me up.
“What did you do?” She ask me and I said.
“I used a power to seal the curse for a bit so I can figure out how to remove it so I can live here want to come with me?” I asked and she looked at the house she looked afraid but she nodded and we walked inside the place already had furniture so I guess I don’t have to waste money that’s a plus a guess and we looked around and we didn't see anything unnatural.
“Let’s go to the basement see if we can find anything there.” I said and we walked to the basement and I could feeling something down here with us.
“Powerscan.” I said I had recovered a bit from our time searching and I could feel a source of magic in one of the walls it was faint but it was there and I walked up to the wall and knocked on it a few ties to see if I can find a hollow part of the wall.
“What are you doing?” Mayor mare asked.
“I can sense the power that created the curse in this wall so I am looking for a hollow part of the wall to see if I can find it.” I said and I continued to lightly knock until I heard the sound I wanted to hear and I saw a loose brick where I knocked and I gently nudged it out and set it down.
I then reached inside the hole in the wall and grabbed something and pulled it out.It was a ruined amulet and not just any amulet a titan amulet I could still feel its lifeforce in there but it was very very faint I might be able to repair it with my findshape.
“Findshape” I said and amulet rose in the air and was wrapped in the violet glow as it slowly began to repair it.
“It should be instant. Maybe because it is a titan amulet.” I muttered to myself and I could feel the malicious start to fade.
“It looks like this titan cast the curse.” I told Mayor mare and she stood beside me.
“But why” She asked.
“Likely try to get back at whoever did this to it.” I said and the repair was complete and the amulet landed in my hand it looked like a mask with the white gem where the mouth would be.
After it was fixed I felt the curse on the house fad and disappear.”Cyphercall.” I said and my Cyperdex appeared.
“Scan this titan?” I asked and I put the amulet on the Cyperdex and it floated above it as it was scanned and the titan appeared as a hologram.
“Shifter, attack 4, defense 2, type Draco-titan Sorcerer, size average, special ability Shape-Shifter.” The Cypherdex said and I unsummoned it and put the amulet in my pocket.
“Well since the curse is gone I will leave you alone and I am surprised how nice the place looks I knew that it was being care of by a few caretakers I assigned to keep it in order but it looks very nice” Mayor Mare said as she looked around and after a few minutes she left and I was left alone to look around my new home there were a lot of rooms it even had a small library and I finished and decided to visit Applejack.
“I wonder what her family is like I have already meet Applebloom nut I wonder who else I will meet.” I said to myself as I walked through the orchard and enjoyed the scenery as I walked along the path until I saw her house. And I walked up to the front porch and knocked on the door.
After a few moments the door opened to see a large red stallion.
“I am here to see Applejack?” I asked.
“Is that Noah.” I heard from inside and I saw Applejack behind the large red stallion.
“Hey Applejack thought I come visit I just got back and I got a new house near the orchard.” I said and the red Stallion moved out of the way for Apple to get though and she closed the door behind her.
“It’s good to see you partner.” Applejack said with a blush on her checks and then she said.” Wait you said you moved into the house near the orchard?” She asked.
“Yes It was cursed by a titans that was severely damaged but i repaired him but it seems I have not bonded with him yet maybe he is still recovering and can not bond with anyone yet.” I said as I pulled out his amulet and it was true it was very weak right now there is not telling how much of his power has leaked out of him over the long years.
“Well thank ya that house has been causing some problems for us other ponies thought some of our apples might be cursed as well so we have not sold them that much but now that it is gone we can finally start selling more and just in time we really need the bits.” She said.
“If you need bits you could ask me I got a fortune that I don't really need.” I said as I rubbed the back of my head with a grin on my face.
“How much?” She asked.
“35950.” I said and she stood there shocked.” You ok?” I asked her and she snapped out of it.
“Yeah I’m fine sugarcube.” She said and she opened the door and invited me inside and I followed he in and she showed me around a bit and told me about granny Smith and Big Macintosh and I was not sitting on the living room with everyone.
“So Noah is now my coltfriend.” Applejack said after explained how we got together.
“Well it’s about time you found somepony.” Granny Smith said as she smiled.
“Yep.” Big Macintosh said as he crossed his arms and he also smiled.
“Applebloom will be here soon she had to go to school today with her friends and will be home soon Big mac why don't we leave these two love bird alone for a bit.” Granny smith said and they both left leaving my and Applejack alone in the living room.
“So um” I said because I didn't know what to say and Applejack spoke.
“So will you be working with me on the farm?” She asked me and I nodded.
“Great but for now why don't we walk around town.” She suggested and I smiled and we left the house to wonder the town together it was fun and I could feel Shifters power recover and I took him out of my pocket and I could feel out bond his energy felt mysterious and misleading and it felt like our bond was already very close to being powerbounded so I thought I should summon him see what he can do.
“Fool the enemy Shifter.” I said and he appeared and he flew in the air and I summoned my Cypherdex and looked up any information it seems he can turn into a mask and can change its wearer’s appearance even titans.
We continued to walk around and Shift just followed us from above and he looked around the town as well and then we went to Twilight and I decided to pull a pnk on her. “Hey shifter come here c and change into a mask.” I said and he had a wicked grin on his face as he changed into a mask and I put it on.
“What are you doing?” Applejack asked and I looked at her.
“I’m going to pull a prank on her so wait out here and watch.” I said as I transformed and walked up to the door and Knocked and I heard Twilight come to the door and open it and She looked much smaller now.
“Princess Celestia come in.” She said with a smile and left me in I could feel Shifter smile and and I could feel his silent laughter and it was almost making me laugh but I managed to hold it in for now but I didn't know how long I could keep it under control.
“Good Evening Twilight.” I said with Celestia’s voice and I put a kind smile on my face as I walked inside and Spike came down and we went into the living room and we sat down Twilight had her back turned and she was looking for a book and I taped Spike’s shoulder and he looked at me and I put a finger to my lips as I cancelled the transformation and took off the mask and walked up to Twilight.
“BOOOO!” I yelled as I grabbed her shoulders and she screamed at the top of her lungs and I could hear Applejack laughing outside and she walked in.
“Noah where did you come from where did Celestia go.” Noah said as she calmed down and I put Shifter on and I turned into her and she just stared at me and I told Shifter to return.
“Sorry for scaring you Twilight I just had to do it and it gave me a chance to test Shifters power.” I said apologizing to her and she nodded and she sent letters to the other girls so I could tell them about my time in canterlot and how my condition is affecting me.
After telling them all Rainbow Dash said.”So your even stronger now?” She asked and I nodded.
“Yes my power has nearly doubled and now I have a house and I will be working on the farm with Applejack.” I said and they all congratulated me for getting a house and Applejack for getting a Coltfriend.
“Oh yeah Rarity can you make me some new clothes I only have theses and it won't be long before they start to smell a bit?
I said and she smiled and we all went to her place so she could take the measurements for my new clothes She quickly took the measurements and start making a few pairs of clothes for me and I was in the waiting room with the other girls waiting for her to finish she said it would not take long bu on earth it would normally take days maybe a monath to make a few clothes by hand.
As we waited we talk about a few thing like how many bits did I get when I told them they all froze and after a few seconds we moved on and the girls were now talking to Applejack quietly to where I could not hear them but I had a few ideas to what they were saying but I did not want to think and guess wrong so I stopped thinking about it.
Rarity called for me and I followed her voice and I found her in a changing room with my new clothes they looked nice and she left me alone to try them on to see if they fit right and I took my clothes off and tried them on one by one they all fit great and where comfortable to wear she even made me a suit maybe for the gala and inside the pocket on the chest there was a ticket to go the the Gala.
“I guess Celestia sent it so I could come with them that’s thoughtful of her I will be sure to thank here when I see her again.” I said to myself and put them all in a bag so I could take them home with me it was getting dark I guess time flies when your with your friends and marefriend.
Walked up to Rarity and thanks her she did she didn’t need any payment even though I tried to give it to her and we all left her palace to go see mine and when we go there Rainbow Dash said.
“Hey isn’t the place that was cursed?” Rainbow asked and Twilight pinched between her eyes and said.
“We already went over this curses don't exist.” She said and then I said.
“They do exist and the one that cast the curse on this house was a titan that was close to death before I saved him and us Casterwill’s created a spell specially created to temporarily seal curses so they can be handled without worry.” I explained and she said nothing as we walked inside and I showed them around and where I found Shifter and after a bit we all thought it would be a good idea for everyone to have a sleepover before the gala tomorrow so they went home really real quick to grab what they needed to stay the night it did not take them long to return with their blankets and whatever else they needed and after a few stories that we all told we all went to bed
