Yesterday Twilight, Spike and Sunset left for Canterlot the fill out the adoption forms for Sam to become her proper son. While they were gone Sam, Aurora, Scarlet and their dragon pets were being looked after by Applejack. The same day, a two new monsters named Gudon and Twin tail appeared.

Sam turned into Gomora once again, and he started to fight with Gudon. Little known fact Twin Tail is the natural prey to Gudon so before Sam jumped in Gudon had manage to defeat and eat Twin Tail, but not before Sam could get Twin Tail’s D.N.A. The battle was painful because Gudon had whips for hands, so he had the advantage. But Gomora managed to defeat Gudon and gain his D.N.A before he exploded. When Twilight, Sunset and Spike came home, twilight took Sam to the Schoolhouse to get Sam registered for school the next day.

Sam woke up the next day, a bit nervous about what is going to happen today. Today he was going to school with Scarlet and Aurora. He saw that Aurora had her hoof over his shoulder like she did on his first night. Sam carefully turned around in the bed and hugged her back. Sam was happy she was his big sister. He knew she, his other big sister Scarlet, his new big brother Spike, his new pets Inferno, Ivy and bolder, and my new mum and aunt Twilight Sunset would help him.

Aurora opened up her eyes and saw Sam hugging her. She smiled and brought her other hoof around him. “Good morning little brother,” she said, “how are you feeling about today?”

“A little bit nervous,” he told her. After they stopped their hug, Sam looked behind himself and saw that mum’s bed was empty. Spike’s basket was too. As well as Scarlet. Even their pet dragons where abscond.

“Everyone must be downstairs,” Aurora said getting out of bed. Sam got out of bed after her and went to the bathroom and changed into another new set of clothes Rarity made for him. He then went downstairs and saw a lot of books all over the floor with Sunset and Twilight looking through them. Scarlet and Aurora were at the bottom of the stairs looking as well.

“Mum?” Sam said, “What are you and Auntie Sunset doing?”

“Oh, good morning you three,” Mum said, “We’re trying to figure out what possibly could have caused Gomora to go on a rampage. So far nothing.”

“Yeah,” Sunset said, “But hopefully these monsters won’t be popping up every day. Now how does breakfast sound?” They then all went into the kitchen, and Spike made waffles for them all. After breakfast, Mum gave Sam, Aurora and Scarlet some bags with stuff in them, writing quills, pieces of paper, and a few books too.

“Well, it’s time for school you three,” she said, “Sunset, Spike keep looking while I’m gone okay?”

“Sure thing Twi,” Sunset said. Mum, Aurora, Scarlet, and Sam then left the library and off toward their first day of school. They then came to the school that their friends showed Sam on his first day. They heard the bells ringing and saw other fillies and colts running into the school.

“Have a good first day at school you three,” Mum told them.

“Bye,” they said walking in. Sam looked around the room and there were a lot of fillies and colts in the room. He saw the other crusaders at one side of the room. They waved at them when they came in, so they waved back. Sam also saw Dinky in the room too. She was looking at him when Sam came in but looked away when he saw her looking at him. Sam then saw Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon in there too. He saw they weren’t happy to see him there.

Two of the colts Sam saw were unicorns. One was smaller than me and green with an orange mane and tail, big teeth sticking out of his mouth, and scissors for a cutie mark. The other one was taller than the others. He was orange, with a green mane and tail, a sleepy look on his face, and a snail for a cutie mark. Another colt Sam saw was an earth pony. He was white with brown spots on him, and a brown mane and tail. He didn’t have a cutie mark though. One other colt Sam saw was grey with a black mane and tail, and a fork and knife for a cutie mark. Another one was a white pegasus with a brown mane and tail, and a feather for a cutie mark.

“Hello Aurora, hello Scarlet, Hello Sam” they heard Miss Cheerilee say as she walked up to them.

“Good morning Miss Cheerilee,” Aurora said.

“Sam, would mind standing here with me for a minute?” Miss Cheerilee asked him. Sam nodded his head at her, while Aurora and Scarlet went over to sit at their desk. The other fillies and colts all sat down as the school bell started ringing. Miss Cheerilee then spoke up.

“Good morning, class,” she said.

“Good morning, Cheerilee,” the other kids said.

“Welcome back to another year of school,” Cheerilee said, “Before we get started, I would like to introduce you all to a new student. This is Sam, and I want you all to treat him nicely.”

“Yes Cheerilee.”

“Now, you go and find an open desk, okay?” she said looking happily at Sam.

“Yes Miss Cheerilee,” Sam said. He saw Sweetie Belle waving her hoof at him. She was sitting at the end of one row. She then pointed at an empty desk next to her. It was in front of the white colt with the brown spots, next to Apple Bloom, and behind Twist. Sam walked over and took a seat in the desk she was pointing at. He then looked behind him at the white and brown colt. He was smiling at him.

“Hi,” Sam said, “What’s your name?”

“I’m Pipsqueak,” he said, “But everypony calls me Pip. It’s nice to meet you, Sam.”

“Nice to meet you too Pip,” Sam said.

“Okay class,” Miss Cheerilee said, “Let’s get started.”

School was interesting. Miss Cheerilee started with a lesson about a city called Cloudsdale. Cloudsdale was where a lot of pegasus ponies came from. Sam wanted to ask Rainbow Dash about it when he saw her again. Cheerilee told us that Cloudsdale was where all of Equestria’s weather was made. She also told us that it was the hometown of the pony who made the first snowflake: a blind filly named Snowdrop. She was a light blue pegasus with the same colour blue and white for her mane and tail, the same blue for her eyes, and a white flower for a cutie mark. Her eyes didn’t have the black pupils like everyone else though. Sam felt bad for her that she couldn’t see very well. Miss Cheerilee said that Snowdrop had amazing ears that could hear almost everything around her. When Snowdrop made the first snowflake in Equestria, it was shown to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, when they were celebrating their one hundredth year of ruling Equestria. Snowdrop’s snowflakes had the power to tame winter’s snows too, so ponies could play in it.

The bells rang again. It was time for lunch and recess, Sam’s favourite part of school. Sam followed Scarlet and Aurora and his other friends out to a lunch table. Twilight had packed them their lunches. Scarlet and Aurora had their favourites with them, while Sam had a strawberry jam sandwich and a small milk carton.

“So how are ya enjoyin’ school so far Sam?” Apple Bloom asked him.

“It’s really nice so far,” Sam told her, “but I’m not happy that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are there.”

“Don’t worry Sam,” Sweetie Belle said, “We’ll make sure they don’t bother you.”

“Thanks girls,” Sam said. He then let out a worry sigh whilst looking at his Omnitrix. Aurora and Scarlet knew why and placed their hooves on Sam’s back.

“Something wrong buddy?” Scootaloo asked.

“Yes, but I don’t want to talk about it here,” Sam said, “Can we talk about it at the clubhouse after school?”

“Sure thing buddy,” Apple Bloom said. They then continued eating their lunch. After lunch, Sam left to find Pip. He saw him talking to the other colts he saw. Pip told him that the green unicorn’s name was Snips and the orange one’s name was Snails. The white pegasus’ name was Featherweight. He was the editor in chief for the school newspaper, the Foal Free Press. The grey colt’s name was Truffle Shuffle. He liked to eat a lot. It made sense because his cutie mark was a knife and fork.

A little later, Sam saw Dinky sitting on the end of the slide looking sad. Sam walked up to her wondering what was wrong.
“What’s wrong Dinky?” Sam asked her.

She looked up at him and Sam could see some tears coming from her eyes.

“I overheard Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon talking bad things about mum,” she said sniffling.

“They were?”

Dinky nodded. Sam swear he could hear Gomora roaring from his Omnitrix.

“Doesn’t Miss Cheerilee know they say mean things to others?” he asked.

“She does, but no matter how much she punishes them, they always start again,” she said, “Those two think they’re better than everypony else just because they have rich families. They always pick on other fillies and colts. Especially the blank flanks like me.”

“You know Dinky?” Sam asked her. She looked at him as Sam sat down next to her. “When Aurora first told me about them, she told me not to let what they say go to my head. I almost did when I first met them, and it did hurt. If they say bad things again, you should tell your mum or Miss Cheerilee.”

“I know, but if I do that, they’ll start picking on me even more if they find out I tell,” she said.

Sam placed an arm around her shoulders. “I’ll be there for you okay?” Sam said to her, “I’m having trouble with something right now, and my new family is trying to help me, so I’ll help you okay?”

She then turned her head to Sam, smiled, and hugged him. “Thank you Sam,” she said. Sam hugged her back. Just then the school bell rang.

“Back to class everypony!” they heard Miss Cheerilee say. Dinky and Sam got up from their seats on the slide, walked back in, and sat down in their desks.

At the end of school, Miss Cheerilee gave us a math assignment. Aurora noticed Sam seemed happy at this. ‘Math must’ve been his favourite subject in school’, she thought. Soon they all left the schoolhouse, and Sam, the other crusaders, Scarlet, and Aurora went over to the clubhouse.

“Okay everypony,” Scarlet said after they all sat down, “what Sam is about to tell you all cannot leave these walls. You all promise?”

“I promise,” Twist said.

“Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye,” the others said, reciting and performing the Pinkie Pie Promise. Sam looked confused at that.

“What was that?” he asked.

“It’s a Pinkie Pie Promise,” Apple Bloom said, “Whenever somepony makes a Pinkie Pie Promise, they have to keep it no matter what. We don’t want to lose your trust buddy, because losing a friend’s trust is the fastest way to lose a friend forever.”

“FOREVER!!!”

They all jumped at the sudden shout. There was Pinkie Pie staring at them sternly through the window.

“Pinkie Pie?” Sam asked confused.

“Hi there Sammy!” she said returning to her happy attitude.

“You heard us?”

“I always know whenever somepony makes a Pinkie Promise,” she said, “And you can trust me that I’ll keep it too if you tell me what you’re about to say.”

“You promise?”

“Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye,” she said reciting her promise.

“Okay,” Sam said standing up, “Yesterday, while Gomora was fighting Gudon, something happen to me. When I was attacking Gudon non-stop, I was losing control of myself, which brings me to another thing you didn’t know about me.”
“What’s that?” Sweetie Belle said.

“Is it something serious?” Scootaloo asked.

“You can say that,” Sam explained, “If I get annoyed or bullied I tend to lose control of my emotions and I when I gain the back I forget what has just happened. I have autism.”

Sam then took off his t-shirt, and everypony there went wide-eyed. Under his t-shirt were red scars, on his chest, his back, his shoulders and his stomach.

“Sweet Applesauce!” Apple Bloom exclaimed.

“Do they hurt?” Twist asked.

“Who did this to you?” Pinkie Pie questioned worriedly.

“Both my bullies from my world… and me,” Sam said looking to the ground, everyone was in more shock than before, “I told and showed mum in private and she told me that she’ll do anything she can to help me. Soon the Princesses showed up and I told them as well. I’m just scared I that I’m going to lose myself again and end up hurting someone.”

“Don’t worry buddy,” Scootaloo said placing a hoof on Sam’s hand, “We’ll all be here for you. We promise not to let this conversation leave the clubhouse.”

“My lips are sealed,” Pinkie said, “See you all later Crusaders! Hope you feel better Sammy.” She then bounced away from the window, humming to herself.

“How does she do that?” Sam asked.

“It’s just Pinkie Pie,” Apple Bloom responded flatly, “You’ll get used to it.”

“We need to get going and see if Twilight has found anything,” Aurora said.

“Plus we’ve got that math assignment to do as well,” Sweetie Belle added. everyone all went our separate ways back home. Sam and his sisters entered the library to see Twilight and Sunset still looking through the books. Twilight noticed them coming in. The dragons came flying down the stairs to greet their owners.

“Oh I’m sorry you two,” she said, “I must’ve lost track of time.”

“It’s okay Mum,” Sam said, “I understand.”

“Did you tell your friends about you know what?” Aurora asked.

“Yes, except for Pinkie Pie, and they promised they wouldn’t tell anypony else. I couldn’t find Pinkie Pie though.”

“She found us and the other Crusaders actually,” Scarlet explained, “We told them, and they promised not to tell either.”

“Good, good,” Twilight said, “Well, so far we still haven’t found anything about why Gomora had gone on a rampage.”

Just then, Sam collapses to the ground in pain. Everyone ran over to him in worry. Few seconds later the pain went away.

“Heh, guess I forgot to mention that sometimes I ‘break down’ should we say with this sudden pain that rocks through my body,” Sam nervously chuckled.

“Don’t worry Sam. We’ll figure something out how to help you,” Twilight said rubbing his cheek with a hoof. Just then Spike started making a gagging sound. He then burped and a rolled-up scroll appeared. Twilight caught it with her magic and unrolled it.

“What does it say?” Sam asked. Twilight cleared her throat and read:

Dear Twilight Sparkle,

We looked through the Canterlot Archives and we think we have a lead on to why Sam temper lose is effecting Gomora. It might be something we can use to help control his temper, but we will have to look into it further until we are certain. For now, just do your best to help Sam any way you can and keep me updated on any further incidents Sam has with lose his temper.
Your faithful mentor,
Princess Celestia
“Well Sam, Princess Celestia thinks she may have found something, but wants to make sure it’ll work before trying it on you,” Twilight said.

“Okay,” he said showing a small smile.

“At least we’re getting somewhere,” Twilight added, “Now why don’t you three go do your homework?”

Aurora nodded her head and led Sam upstairs followed by Scarlet. There they worked on the math assignment Miss Cheerilee gave them. Soon after finishing his assignment, Sam went to sit on their bed.

“Are you gonna be okay?” Aurora asked him. He looked up at them and had a sad frown.

“I don’t know Aura,” he said to her, “I just really hope Princess Celestia fixes me. The only ones that can help me break out of my rage is my human siblings and mother.” He then laid down on his chest looking at the clock in the room. Aurora and Scarlet then finished up their assignment, trotted over to him, laid down next to him, and placed a hoof on his back. He turned to look at them and they gave him a sad smile.

“It’ll be okay little brother,” Aurora said, “You know we’re all here for you right?”

He nodded at her and sat up. Aura and Scarlet did the same, and they hugged each other.

“Thank you Aura, Scarlet,” he said. They held their hug for what felt like hours, and Aurora could feel Sam relaxing in their embrace. “I hope what Princess Celestia found works,” he added after they finished their hug.

“Me too,” Aurora said, “You wanna get a snack from the kitchen?”

“Sure,” he said nodding.
