A Shadows Grave

by Pinkies Imagination

First published 10th of October, 2012

CJ wakes up in Equestria after a year of his own dead sleep. A miracle right? Far from it... there is a dark entity... a forgotten enemy, stalking his every move, waiting to strike... (Sequel to Where the grass is green and the girls are... PONIES?!)

In this story Chris wakes up to find he has been dead for almost a year, and what his death has done to the ponies of Ponyville, join him as he attempts to undo what damage he did and try and take control of an evil force that surfaces during this story.

And yes I KNOW there should be an apostrophe in shadows... but I had to remove it because it just showed up as coding when viewed from a profile in one of those little box thingies.

Death defied

Chapter 1: Death defied

Nothing. That's all I heard, all I felt, was nothing. Then, I began to feel cold, so cold I thought I was breathing clouds. That's when it hit me, I wasn't breathing. Slowly all of my senses came back to me and I began breathing. I opened my eye's and I could only see darkness.

'That's strange, I thought I was just in the forest...

Then I remembered what had happened, the running, falling asleep, being attacked... and that explosion.... I felt around and I could tell I was in a wooden box. I started hitting the box harder and harder before I lost track of how fast I was throwing punches and kicking.

'OK now this is just getting annoying'

I sat there, getting more and more angry at nothing and for no reason. Finally I couldn't take it anymore and shouted at the top of my lungs while pushing forward with both hands. I head a loud CRAACK BOOM! and just lay still waiting for the ringing in my ears to stop. When it finally stopped I opened my eyes to see a hole above me where my hands hit and a hole leading to the surface. I sat there for a while looking at the hole.

'I was... underground??'

I pushed the thought to the back of my mind and began crawling out of the hole. When I reached the top I looked back and gasped. I was underground in a coffin, there was a tombstone in front of the hole with my name on it. At that moment I began to panic and hyperventilate.

'There is no way... no WAY that I was dead, I-It must have been a mistake or... SOMETHING!?'

When I finally began to calm down I got a look at my surroundings. It was the middle of the night, and I was in a field. I could see ponyville only about a 5 minute walk away. So I decided to go and look for some answers.

'If this was some kind of joke, it was NOT fucking funny!'

I began to make a slight jog, and then went into a full sprint towards ponyville. It was empty and so quiet it scared me.

'This is NOT normal... its too damn qui... oh ya... its night time...'

I looked around and I was thinking about how to go along this. I decided to head over to the closest house. Fluttershy's. I began to walk towards her house when I thought to myself...

'What am I going to say..."Oh hey there! I was hangin around in a hole and decided to stop by! How you doin!?" '

I decided to just improvise, so I walked up to her house and took a deep breath before knocking. At first there was nothing, then the door opened to reveal a very annoyed angel. He looked up at me and made a rude gesture and shut the door.

'Uh... k?'

I was about to turn around when the door opened again to show the same bunny, but this time in a state of utter shock. He stood there for a while, silent, as if trying to see if I was real.

"Uh.... hi?"

Angel blinked once and slammed the door and I heard very fast foot steps run away from it. After about a minute I heard them come back accompanied by hoof steps and a certain pony mumbling something about why It was so important for her to be up. Then the door began to open revealing a tired Fluttershy.

"Angel... I don't see what you want me to lo-" She stopped talking when she looked out the door and saw me standing there.

Her face went from tired to surprised, then sadness, anger, and finally complete shock. We stood there in complete silence for what felt like hours before I finally spoke.

"Listen Shy, I-" I was cut off by Fluttershy who tackled me to the ground, hugging tightly around my neck.

"H-How are y-y-you still alive? Y-You have b-been gone for so l-long! I...We all missed you s-so b-bad!" She said through her tears.

I just sat there for a moment then returned the hug,"I've missed you all too, I just have one question. How long have I been gone?"

She pulled out of the hug and motioned for me to come inside. So I followed her in and sat down on the couch, moments later she came back holding two cups of coffee in her hooves. She sat down beside me and handed me a cup, I took it and smiled at her, and she sighed and began to speak.

"One year..."

I was a little confused at what she meant. "Shy, what do you mean... 'One year...'?"

A single tear ran down her cheek and she looked up at me and continued.

"It's been one year since you died... one year since I last saw your face, one year since I saw that coffin lowered into the ground..."

At that moment, my brain was having a few problems.

'One year... One year?! What.The.FUCK.'

When I finally got my brain out of the error it got itself into, I looked over to Fluttershy, and spoke.

"Shy... it's not going to be easy showing myself to everyone else... oh god, what if Twilight tries to experiment on me..."

Fluttershy gave out a small laugh, "Oh, she won't..."

I looked at her confused, "And... why's that?"

She looked back at me with very, VERY angry eyes, and I realized at that moment what was scarier than a pissed off Lyra...

"Well, you'd better get some sleep, you've got a long day ahead of you tomorrow, and you're gonna need all the rest you can get." She leaned over and gave me another hug.

When she broke the hug she looked at me with a smile and went and got me some pillows and blankets. I lay my head down and dozed off to sleep, thinking of what tomorrow will hold, and what had happened since I was gone...

Author's Notes:

REMEMBER TO LEAVE A LIKE/FAV IF YOU ENJOYED!

Here to stay

Chapter 2: Here to stay

I slowly wake up and stretch out my arms and legs before a heavenly scent crosses my nose. I raise my head slowly and open my eyes. I'm in Fluttershy's cottage with the light smell of mouthwatering waffles filling the air. I slowly got up and walked over to the kitchen and saw Fluttershy humming to herself while cooking breakfast. So I spoke.

"Hey Shy." I said.

And I heard a faint "Eeep!" As she once again Stuck herself to the kitchen ceiling.

I chuckled a bit then called up to her.

"Hey Shy, how about I finish cooking breakfast? You can go ahead and sit down."

She looked at me and nodded, "O-Ok CJ..."

She sat down and I went to finish cooking the waffles. After a few minutes I walked over and placed a plate of some freshly cooked waffles in front of her and myself. I sat down and we began eating.

"I'll never know how you do it Shy, but once again, this is the best breakfast I've ever tasted in my life... well... my other life anyways...."

She blushed and went back to eating. When we finished we decided to go and meet the rest of our friends.

"Shy, who do you think we should visit first?" I asked while walking through ponyville, Fluttershy right beside me.

"Hm... how about Pinkie, she seemed so depressed when you... um... died..." I just simply nodded and continued through Ponyville.

On the way I got a lot of shocked looks and stares from every pony I passed. I began to get a little nervous until we finally arrived at sugar cube corner. We walked in and I went up to the counter and rang the bell. I heard a very sad and depressed voice come from somewhere in the kitchen just out of sight.

"Welcome to sugar cube corner... what do you want..."

"I would like a Party from Pinkie Pie with extra-" How can you get your order right if you can't finish it....

I was cut off when a pink blur shot out of the kitchen and landed on top of me sending me and the pink pony sliding out the door, leaving Fluttershy still spinning. Outside I lay sprawled out on the ground with a pink pony hopping up and down on top of me smiling bigger than I have ever even seen, or thought possible by HER standards.

"OhmygoshohmygoshohmygoshOHMYGOSH! I KNEW you'd never leave your friends! OH OH OH! We could have a HUGE party to celebrate, with cake and balloons and streamers and games a-" I put my hand against her mouth to stop the onslaught of words.

"Yes Pinkie, we can, but first, we need to go see everyone else, you can come along if you like."

"Of course I will silly! I want to make sure all of my friends get a BIG smile when they find out you're back, I'm gonna be all, 'HEY LOOK HE'S BACK!' and they're gonna be all, 'Ohmygosh your right! Your awesome Pinkie!' and I'd be like 'No problem!' An then I wo-" I threw my hand back on her face and held it there until she calmed down.

"Can I remove my hand now?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Mmm hmm" She said through my hands.

I pulled my hand away and smiled at her shenanigans and motioned for Fluttershy and Pinkie to follow me. And then we made our way to Rarity's. When we got there I knocked on the door and I heard a sad voice yell from the other side.

"We make clothes that sparkle, what would you like?"

I cleared my throat and replied, "Uh, I'd like new clothes to replace the ones I have on now, they're all ripped up and dirty like they've been siting in the ground for a year" When I finished Pinkie gave a little snort.

The voice on the other side spoke again while opening the door, "You sound familiar, have we met at so-" She froze when she saw me standing there.

"Ya I think we've met once or twice." She stood there staring at me in awe.

"Uh Rarity, I know I look good but jeez." I said ending it with a wink.

She snapped out of her trance and blushed.

"B-B-But y-y-you were d-dead..." She sputtered out.

"Mmm hmm, 'Were'."

*******************************

After an awkward conversation with Twilight, a nice get together with AJ and her family, and a chat with RD, I was feeling pretty good to be back. I just had to explain my self to Celestia when she gets here tomorrow. That will NOT be fun. I decided to go ahead and lay down at my old 'technically old' house and get some sleep. Flutter shy walked with me the way there.

"Hey Shy, whats wrong, you look like you've got something on your mind?" She looked up at me and started to blush.

"Um... well... you see..." Her face getting redder by the second.

"Um... well, I wanted to know... if you wanted to.... um, if you had the time.... if you wanted to... nevermindgottagobye!"

She sped off from me as I arrived at my house.

'Huh... that was weird...' I thought to my self as I walked into my house.

I lay down on my bed and just started thinking for a few minutes.

'Why was Shy acting so strange around me, she was about to tell me something but flew off before she finished. Sometimes I don't understand that pony

I sat there for a few more minutes before my eyes shot open with realization.

'No.Fucking.Way.

Will it work?

Chapter 3: Will it work?

The next morning I wake up with light beaming down on my eyes. I slowly open them and lay there for a moment thinking about the previous night.

'Hm... Shy seems to really like me... but I'm not sure if It is even right for us to be together... I remember all the Fics about these kinds of things but...' My thoughts were cut off when a crazy idea emerged into my mind.

'Hm, I need to make sure this is what Shy wants, and I need to spend some time to think about if I really want to go through with this whole thing, if it is even POSSIBLE...'

I decided to pay Flutter shy a visit... after breakfast of course, and ask her if she really feels this way about me. If so, I knew exactly what to do. I walked out of my house and took a deep breath and began to walk towards Flutter shy's house.

'I hope she is OK with my answer... I don't want to lose a good friend over something like this...'

I walked towards the cottage and stood in front of the door. A million thoughts going through my mind at headache speeds. I shook my head and looked up to the door and took a deep breath.

"KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK..."

A voice could be heard from inside the house.

"O-Oh...c-coming!"

As she opened the door her smile faded for a moment then quickly reappeared.

"O-Oh.. CJ! How are you doing?" She said forcing a smile.

I looked at her and sighed.

"Shy, can I come in, I need to speak to you about something."

She nodded and walked away from the door, I followed her in and shut the door, then turned around to see her staring at me in curiosity.

"Shy... come sit down with me." I said as I sat down on the couch, patting at the spot beside me.

She jumped up and lay down in the empty space and looked up at me, I looked back at her big eyes.

"Listen, Shy... I-I know how you f-feel about me... how you see me as more than a friend... r-right?" She blushed and nodded very slowly.

I took a deep breath to settle myself and continued, "But, I'm afraid... it just... wont work... I am a completely different species than you. As long as I am a human or you are a pony, it just wont work." I said looking down at her.

She was on the verge of tears so I pulled her into a hug.

"I-I understand C-CJ... I'm sorry that I thou-" I cut off her sentence and pushed her away and looked into her eyes.

"Shy, listen, this is not your fault, It's just... where I am from... It's considered a crime to do this... it was in no way your fault, you had no way of ever knowing." She nodded and I pulled her back into a hug where she began crying on my shoulder.

'Well, I cant stand her being like this, I guess I will have to go through with my crazy plan that will probably end up with me either torn apart, disfigured, or just plain out dead....again....'

I pushed her away and looked into her teared up eyes.

"Listen Shy, I need to go to Twilight's for a few things, I may be gone for quite a while. So I'll see you soon alright?" She nodded slowly and walked away as I made my way to the door. I opened the door and stepped out. Before closing it I called inside.

"Oh.. and Shy, just so you know... I did very well consider it, and would have done it, but I just cant, I hope you understand."

I couldn't see it, but I was sure she smiled before I finally shut the door.

'Now It's time to go to Twilight's.'

I turned and made my way down towards ponyville on my way to the library. On the way there forcing a smile on my face, but inside, I was completely scared and nervous. I got to the library and knocked, and spike answered, looked up and smiled.

"Hi CJ! What's up?"

"Oh nothing much, here, I need you to send this letter for me, It's for the princess."

He looked at the letter I handed him and shrugged, took in a deep breath and set the letter a-flame.

>>>Perspective change: Spike<<<

CJ handed me the letter, I was going to open it and take a peek, but noticed words saying, '' 'For Celestia's eyes ONLY' '' so I shrugged and sent the letter to Celestia, moments later began to feel a familiar rumbling in my stomach. I belched up a scroll and handed it to CJ who read it for a moment and closed it, revealing a huge smile on his face.

"Whoa... Dude that's creepy..."

>>>Perspective change: CJ<<<

I put the note in my pocket and laughed as Spike said that one line that always made me laugh from the day I first heard it. I turned around and walked to ponyville where I sat on a bench and waited. About 20 minutes later a pegasus drawn chariot pulled up with princess Celestia inside it. I smiled and walked over where I pulled myself up and sat down next to the princess.

"CJ, are you completely sure this is what you want? Because no amount of magic in the world could help you if you change your mind."

I turned to her and smiled softly. "Yes Tia, this is what I want, I am sure I have thought about it long enough and I am ready."

Celestia smiled and nodded to the pegesi. I turned to her and Raised an eyebrow.

"Uh... Tia... which one will it be?"

She turned and looked back at me. "I'm not sure, It's luck of the draw CJ, nothing more to it."

I nodded and looked ahead to Canterlot, and smiled at how much better it looked close up. I can only imagine what it will be like living here for a few weeks.

S.P.F.R.T

Chapter 4: S.P.F.R.T

>>>Perspective change: Spike<<<

I was running as fast as I could back into the house to find Twilight, I had to tell her what had just happened. I burst through the door and ran up the stairs into her room. She dropped the book she was holding and raised an eyebrow towards me.

"Twi-T-Twilight... the princess...she took...C-CJ with... her." I said between breaths.

Twilight ran over to me, "Spike! Calm down! Take a deep breath and tell me what happened." I took in a deep breath then looked back at her.

"Twilight, the princess took CJ! And he looked very worried about something, like something was going to happen to him!"

Twilight stood still for a moment then looked back at me, "Spike, are you sure about this?" I nodded. " Oh no... what if she is going to banish him! Or worse... Experiment on him for coming back to life..." She let out a loud "Eeep!" and bolted past me and out the door.

>>>Perspective change: Twilight<<<

'Nonononononono! This cant be happening, this cant be happening!'

I ran to every one of my friends houses and told them to meet at the library immediately. Then ran back towards the library, panting for breath. I finally got there and burst through the door. I sat down and began to catch my breath, as I did all my friends began walking through the door looking concerned.

"Listen girls, we have a big problem, Celestia has taken away CJ probably for some kind of experiment!"

A series of gasps could be heard in the room and one fainting dragon. I rolled my eyes at Spike and turned back to my friends who were all shocked.

"Now, I need you all to stay still while I cast this spell."

They all looked scared but then perked up when they realized who they were talking to. I began to charge up my spell, an aura of magic began encasing all of us, growing brighter each second until finally when the light was beyond blinding, it faded away.

>>>Perspective change: 3rd person view<<<

Twilight looked around at all of her friends and smiled, "There, we are now able to enter Canterlot without being seen."

Twilight and her friends had all changed into the form of Canterlot guards.

Twilight spoke again, "This spell will last one hour, we should get to Canterlot in half that time! now lets go!"

All of her friends looked around at each other than cheered.

"AWWW YEAAA! We can be the uh... Stealth Ponies Friend Rescue Team!" Shouted Rainbow, "The S.P.F.R.T! It's genius!"

Twilight rolled her eyes and began making her way to Canterlot with her friends.

*****************************

They made it to Canterlot 48 minutes later.

"Ugh... FINALLY!" Shouted Rainbow.

"Rainbow, we would have got here sooner if SOMEPONY stoped complaining about the armor and would have walked instead of stopping every 5 minutes to try and fix it." Twilight said as she eyed down Rarity, Who just gave a smile with a quiet "SQUEE" behind it.

*****************************

When the 6 friends got into Canterlot, they went into stealth mode (play This while you read) and began to make their way towards the royal champers. They searched almost every inch of the building. They split up and started searching until they found nothing. Twilight sighed and began to make her way out of the castle when she could feel energy, very close as well. she turned and saw a long hallway Rainbow had searched, but being a unicorn she could notice these energies. She called after her friends and began searching every door of the hallway, Twilight began running ahead feeling the energy grow stronger and stronger. Like static around them they all began to feel it, even Rarity started whining about her hair getting frizzy, but they still quickened their pace, until they came to the end of the hall where they opened a door and saw Celestia firing a beam of energy linked to CJ.

Flutter shy screamed and flew faster than she had ever flown before and slammed into CJ breaking the energy link causing a bright flash.(stop the music) When the flash of light subsided Celestia was getting up off the floor looking dazed and coughed a little. She looked up and saw 5 guards standing there awestruck at what had happened, and a CJ and a 6th guard on the floor. She grunted and pulsed out energy from her horn causing everyone to lose their disguise.

She looked at CJ and frowned as she had not completed her spell.

"Girls what is the meaning of this interruption?"

She turned to see Flutter shy holding CJ, who was now awake, and was crying.

"C-CJ... please don't go, y-y-you said y-you would n-never l-leave us... I don't c-care that you are h-human, b-because..." She leaned forward and planted a kiss on his lips causing him to open his eyes wide in shock. "Because... I love you..."

>>>Change perspective: CJ<<<

I sat there for a moment trying to process everything that just happened, then an idea came to my mind, I looked at Celestia and smiled, she nodded in understanding, I looked back at Flutter shy who was still crying and had her head buried in my chest. I pushed her out of my chest and looked at her eyes.

"Shy... I don't care if I am a pony or a human anymore, just as long as I can be with you, I don't care if it is wrong on my world, I am now just realizing, I do not need to follow those rules anymore, I am no longer on earth..." I continued to stare into her eyes that were flooding with tears. "And the truth is, I love you too." I leaned down and kissed her on the lips, which she returned.

We sat there for what felt like hours before we finally broke the kiss and looked over at all of our friends who were crying, even Rainbow wasn't trying to hide it this time.

I looked back at Flutter shy who was still crying. But with tears of joy, So i smiled and said, "Come on, lets go home and rest, I feel like going out to eat tomorrow." Her eyes lit up and she hugged me tightly. I smiled because I finally let love into my life.

The next day I woke up after the best nights sleep I have had since I came to Equestria. I went outside my house and over to Flutter shy's and opened the door. When I walked in my smile faded as I saw Flutter shy crying with her 5 friends looking very worried.

"Uh... hey everyone whats up...." They all looked at me and put their heads down.

Flutter shy looked up, and spoke through her tears.

"There is something wrong with Celestia..."

The darkness within

Chapter 5: The darkness within

I was in complete shock. I had no idea how to answer to that statement, so after what felt like hours I finally found my voice.

"W-What do y-you mean something is wrong?"

Twilight turned to me and sighed.

"She has gotten really sick, and can barely speak. We cant even communicate with her. In the middle of the night the guards heard her screaming and went to check on her. She was on the floor passed out."

I sat there for a moment thinking hard.

'How could she get so bad so fast... Then my eyes widened with realization.

"Twilight, how soon can we get there." I spoke in a hurry.

Twilight looked up confused and spoke.

"Well... I can call for a chariot to be here, so maybe 15 minutes?"

I nodded and turned back to everypony.

"I need you all to come with me.... and...." I sat for a moment before continuing.

"And bring the elements." Everypony gasped and turned to me.

AJ was the first to speak up.

"Are ya'll crazy? Who knows what kind of effect that can have on an alicorn!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

I sighed and turned around and made my way to the door.

"It's not for the princess... It's for me..."

There was dead silence as I left the room and made my way to ponyville to wait for the chariot. I sat down on a bench and breathed in.

'So... I guess even me dieing just wasn't enough for you? You had to go and do this and ruin the life of another pony...

I shed a tear as I finished that thought with an image of Flutter shy in my mind.

'Oh she will not like this, not one bit.'

"Hey!" Called out Twilight from behind me startling me a bit.

"Heheh... sorry... I just wanted to know.... what did you mean the elements were for you?" She said with a raised eyebrow.

(Listen to this)

'Well, might as well tell someone what happened, I can't keep it a secret forever...'

I sighed and looked over to her as she sat on the bench beside me.

"Twilight, I need you to listen very carefully, you may not like what you are about to hear, but it is the ONLY way..." I took a deep breath as I began my story.

"It all started when I was 7 years old... I had begun getting nightmares, but it was only ONE nightmare. And they have slowly and steadily been getting worse as the years pass. I began being haunted by a figure I have come to know as..." I sat for a moment and took a deep, shaky breath and continued, " as a shadow demon named Zane..." Twilight's eyes widened at the name.

"So... that's the name of the voice I heard when I was going through worlds? What is hurting Celestia?" I nodded and continued.

"As I reached 10 I could see him not only in my dreams, but around me, and I see visions of my family and people around me being hurt. One time he actually physically hurt my friend... but all the credit so to speak went to me." I let out a deep sigh and continued my story. "And to the point my parents began making me take classes, and talk to people about it, saying its all in my head. The day I turned 15 it just sort of... stopped... I don't know why but I think it had a plan. And now that he is within Celestia, we need to act... now...."

(stop the music...that is...I-If you want to)

After a few minutes a shuddering Twilight found her voice, "B-But what about that thing about the elements being used on you?"

I slowly turned to Twilight and sighed, "Twilight, I need to do what i can to bring the shadow back to me, but during the process is probably the only time you'll have a chance to kill it, I need you to fire the elements as the switch is being made."

Twilight began to tear up and pulled me into a hug, "And Twilight, I will not leave any of you, everything will turn out fine." I gave her a warm smile and she just sobbed and brought me back into the hug.

**********************

We made it to Canterlot and ran towards the castle. When we reached the doors two guards called out,

"No pony is allowed to see the prin-" He was cut off when I bolted by him and yelled back.

"SorrygottagosaveTiabyebye!" And turned my head back in front of me and continued my sprint with the others.

When we finally reached the throne room we saw Luna alone.

"Luna! We can save the princess, but we need to see her now!"

Luna did not hesitate, with a flash of her horn's magic we were all teleported to a room with things all around the walls representing the sun (her cutie mark) and a large bed in the center shaped the same with a weak Celestia on it. I ran over to her side and looked at how weak she was.

"Tia... can you hear me?" Celestia did not look up but nodded slightly.

"Good, I need you to listen very closely, I want you to funnel all of the magic you can towards me, leave NOTHING."

This time she raised her head and asked in a very faint voice.

"CJ... I don't think I can, and if I could, it would kill you..."

I looked at her and smiled, "Tia, everything will be fine, I pinkie promise." I ended that sentence putting a finger in my eye.

"-pcake In my ey- GAH-FUCK!" Everyone gave a small laugh, except Pinkie who just facehoofed.

She looked back at me and smiled warmly, and began to stand up, when she was standing on her hooves, she lowered her horn to me. I began to see energy charge up and she began to whimper and let out small yelps of pain. Twilight began to use her magic to help her, and I turned to her.

"No Twilight don't! Or else you co-" I was cut off when I saw a yellow and purple beam sail past me. And just before celestia collapsed a shadow like essence seeped out of her horn and shot towards Twilight.

Without the elements being charged, and the shadow somehow looking pissed, it wanted to take the life of the one who helped remove it from the alicorn. Without thinking I sprint to Twilight and dove in front of her.

'I'm sorry Shy... I will miss yo-' My thoughts were cut off when the shadow made impact in my chest, and everything went black.

(Listen to this in the backround)

>>>Perspective change: Flutter shy<<<

I watched as the shadow hissed through the air after Twilight, and just before impact a figure jumped in front of her. A very bright.... dark...? explosion erupted. When it faded I took a look around and saw everyone was ok... but... where was CJ?

"CJ..." I whispered out...

Twilight looked in shock and turned around to see me.

"F-F-Flutter S-Shy... I-I...-" I cut her off by running out of the castle and back home leaving a trail of tears behind me.

"H-He can't be gone... he just can't..."

Fighting the final boss! 'sort of'

Chapter 6: Fighting the final boss! 'sort of'

I slowly began to regain my senses. First my taste, where I could taste a hint of bitterness in my mouth. Next was touch. All I could feel was coldness throughout my body. As the rest of my senses came back to me I looked around to see everything was black. After what felt like hours everything lit up revealing very small stone brick room with a single door. I walked up to the door and pushed it open. Just more darkness. As I began to turn around, I was sucked into the door which slammed shut and I began to fall. Finally hitting the ground.... but on a 'soft' kind of ground.

'Where the hell am I?'

"Hehehehe.... oh wouldn't you just love to know that?"

I twirled around to just see more black. I began to panic as I could feel coldness moving up my spine every so often. I began to get a little more than annoyed. Finally everything brightened up and I was standing on a grassy field just outside ponyville.

'Uhhh...k?'

I began making my way to ponyville only to be pushed back to the ground.

"Ah ah ah! I can't let you go back just yet."

Ok, I was annoyed before but now I'm just getting pissed off.

"I want to play a bit of a game. It's called, survive."

"Wow, real original."

There was a dead silence after that that was broken shortly after.

"Well then, for that remark I wont go easy on you."

"Easy on m-" I was cut off when a shadow-like figure in the shape of a human appeared in front of me and punched me in the chest.

I collapsed on the floor and tried to catch my breath that had been taken from me.

"This is easier than I thought, this will be over soon enough so I can take care of that bitch Flutter sh-"

I cut him off as my anger exploded and I threw my right fist towards him and made contact with his face. He seemed taken aback by this. All I was thinking is how I had done it, he was a shadow! I looked down at my fists and saw a yellowish orange light illuminating from them. The only thing I could think of at the time was when the shadow collided with me.

'Did he bring some of Tia's magic to me...'

The shadow looked a bit worried then shook off the feeling and ran at unimaginable speeds towards me and grabbed me by the throat. Slowly he picked me up and began strengthening his grip.

'Hm... well shit.'

Just as everything began to go black, a pink blur flew past me and tackled into the shadow. I fell to the ground coughing. Then looked up to see the shadow on the ground with...

"P-P-Pinkie?? How did y.... you know what... never mind."

She looked up at me and smiled.

"Well, you made a Pinkie promise, so I had to make sure you kept it!"

I looked at her as the shadow under her began to squirm and blasted her off his chest. I ran over and helped Pinkie up and whispered in her ear.

"Pinkie... that shadow guy over there? He stole my cupcakes..."

At that moment her mane deflated and she turned around. I couldn't see it but I almost thought the shadow was scared.

"No one, NO ONE takes away my friends CUPCAKES!" At the end of that she blasted at speeds easily double the shadow's and made impact with his chest.

I heard a low grunt as the dark pink pony picked the shadow up in her teeth and looked back at me and smiled, perking her mane up a little.

"BE RIGHT BACK!" Then poof, she was gone.

I sat there for a moment before she appeared beside me watching me look at the spot she once was.

"Whatch'ya lookin at?"

I basically did a backflip of fear and turned to her then calmed down.

"Uh Pinkie... where did you.. uh... put him?"

She thought about it for a moment and looked back at me smiling.

"I have NO IDEA!" She was staring at me like she had just done the greatest thing since sliced bread.

"Uh... really? You don't? Is he dead?"

She looked me up and down then replied. "Oh silly, you don't look hurt to me! Now come on, lets get some cupcakes!"

I sat there staring at her. Just staring.

'B-But...I-...she....HUH?! Ok, you know what? FUCK gravity, FUCK time, and FUCK physics, she is fucking PINKIE PIE! SO SHUT UP BRAIN'

As we made our way to ponyville I looked over at Pinkie who was eating a cupcake. I was ALMOST about to ask her how she got it, but I was pretty sure the world was close to imploding on it self because of the last few minutes. So I let it slide. When we got to Ponyville I looked around at all of the ponies staring wide eyed at me.

'I think by now they are thinking I am death or something'

"Oh that's silly, its still the same old you!"

"Ok, Pinkie, enough of that! The fourth wall is probably ready to end it self, stop toying with it like its a...well....toy!"

She looked at me and gave me a curious look.

"The fourth wall still exists? Huh... I better start backtracking from eight then..."

That was it, I had enough of this, before the world implodes I need to get away from her. I turned around and ran towards Flutter shy's.

She yelled back to me as I ran. "Ok! I'll see you in eight hours thirty two minutes and fi-"

"Pinkie I swear to Celestia!"

"Okie-dokie-lokie, bye CJ!"

'Gah, finally.'

I made it to Flutter shy's house and knocked on the door, no one answered so I opened it. I made my way up the stairs to her room where I could hear faint sobbing. So I opened the door. She looked up and her eye's went wide.

"So, about that dinner?"

First date

Chapter 7: First date

I may have lied slightly, this is how it actually went. I opened the door to see her look at me wide eyed, so I looked back at her and smiled.

"So, aboug getaj dinghkar..." My words were suppressed when a pair of lips were were attached to me.

A few moments later I realized it was Flutter shy and returned the kiss. When the kiss was finally broken I looked at her with a warm smile.

"Well I'm happy to see you too!" She blushed before sitting down on her bed.

I walked beside her and sat down, pulling her into a hug. I held her there until she calmed down.

"I-I thought you w-w-were d-dead."

"Shy, don't worry about it, I can handle a little black gas in the air." My smile faded when I saw the anger in her eyes.

'Dayum, I wonder what it is like when she uses the stare.... gah I don't want to know.' I shuddered at the thought.

She looked back at me again, this time with a sad pair of eyes.

"CJ.... I just don't want anything bad to happen to you."

"Shy, everything is fine, I pinkie promised, remember?"

She instantly perked up and shook her head and then kissed me again.

"Now, Shy, how about that dinner?" She nodded furiously.

We walked our way out of the door and towards ponyville. On the way we got a lot of stares, which I did not mind because I have gotten somewhat used to them. We reached her favorite restaurant. We walked inside and sat down at a table of her choice. When the waiter showed up he sat down two menus. We picked them up and scanned them. A few seconds later Flutter shy ordered.

'hm... a lot of stuff I can't even eat... oh well'

I just settled for the salad. We waited for a while, talking about our friends, and how I would explain what happened.

"Well, I won't need to explain it to Pink- I mean..." She gave me a deadpan stare.

"Oh.. you don't have to, its Pinkie, she can do things that still seem to be unanswerable by the law of physics and gravity-" She went on having a Twilight moment untill she noticed me sitting there with my jaw on the table.

"O-Oh.. sorry... what? I can't be smart too?" She ended that with a warm smile.

"O-Oh no... it's just that, I think you literally just explained Pinkie pie more than my brain can even Picture... that's not a bad thing." She blushed deep crimson.

The waiter came along with our food. While eating our food, we continued to talk about things like our friends, what ponyville thinks about me, and then about animals. She seemed surprised about my knowledge about animals and animal healthcare.

'Funny, I thought I told them about me being good with animals.'

When we were finished I payed the waiter and gave him a nice tip. He smiled at me and walked away.

'Oh crap, that reminds me, my job, im running low on bits and I need to see if I can get my job back'

I decided to take care of that in the morning. As I walked Flutter shy home, It was complete silence. When we finally made it to her house, she opened the door and turned to me.

"Thanks a lot CJ, I had a lot of fun tonight. I hope we can do it again sometime soon."

"Me too, I'll see you in the morning Shy."

We kissed one more time, a short kiss, and walked away. She went to her house and I made my way towards mine. On the way a lot of things crossing my mind.

'What did Pinkie mean by I didn't look hurt? Where did the shadow go... and most importantly, am I going to survive tomorrows trivial bombardment from Twilight.' I shuddered at the last thought.

I made my way up the path to my house. I put in the key and turned it unlocking the door. I stepped inside and began changing out of my clothes and just put on a pair of boxers. I made my way up stairs and into bed. As I lay down I recalled a few memories.

'I wonder how Celestia is doing, or how she will react when she finds out I had some of her power.' I kept thinking this until I finally dozed off to sleep.

*********************

The next morning I awoke, the second best sleep yet. No nightmare, but not quite as... comfortable as the last. I Went and took a shower quickly, because I needed one a bit bad. After the shower I put on some fresh clothes Rarity had made me. I made my way downstairs and decided to take my I-pod. I left the house and shut the door behind me.

On my way to ponyville I noticed a certain white unicorn.

"Hey Viny-" She cut me off my shoving a hoof in my mouth.

"Are you crazy? I am in disguise mode right now! I don't want to be mobbed, which reminds me, how could you tell it was me?"

Her disguise consisted of no goggles and a hat. And yet she still asked that question.

"I just uh... have a good eye?" She shrugged and backed up a bit.

"So, what did ya want to get my attention for?"

I looked back at her and smiled reaching into my pocket. I pulled out my I-pod and earphones and she cocked her head.

"This here, can hold thousands of songs, and I am sure I can find a way to make it store yours, you can also keep the ones already on it." I said as I handed it to her.

She looked at me in amazement. As I was giving her something that to me was worth maybe a few bits, seeing how no one else new what it was. But to her she saw it as the holy grail.

"T-T-Thousands?!" I nodded and she nearly collapsed.

"Why? Is it too big a number?" I asked with a small laugh at the end.

"N-No.. its just, I have some things like that which hold songs, but only a few. But that is just amazing."

"Here take it, I don't need it anymore. Let me show you how it works."

I showed her how she can transfer songs onto it from her old system, and play the songs on it from the earphones or on her table. When I was done she put one in her ear and turned it on my dub step playlist. She began to bob her head and looked back at me.

"Wow, this is amazing CJ, I can't thank you enough, here, take this." She gave me a silverish gold pass.

"What is this for?"

She looked back and smiled. "Come to the party over at the club tonight, invite anypony, that pass there will let you go behind stage and see me."

"Alright thanks, I think I know somepony who would love to meet you. C ya later vinyl." I said, ending it in a slight whisper.

As we walked away I thought about what everypony's reaction would be to being able to meet vinyl behind stage during a party. I chuckled thinking of what dash is going to say.

'Tonight is going to be a fun one.'

Ain't no party like a....

Chapter 8: Ain't no party like a...

I made my way to Flutter shy's and knocked. She opened the door and smiled when she saw it was me. I decided to kneel down to her height.

"Hey Shy, I got invited to a party tonight by vinyl, want to come?"

Her eyes immediately shot open wide. I moved back a bit in surprise by the reaction.

"You were invited by vinyl?! Oh my gosh! Of course I'll come! I love her music!" She then immediately blushed and looked down.

'Well then, you learn something every day!'

"She uh... also gave me this pass here." I help up the silverish gold pass, her eyes lit up. "It lets me go backstage where vinyl is, and I can bring my friends." I ended that with a wink.

She flew through the air and wrapped me into a hug. When she finally released it she looked back at me.

"Oh! Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!"

'Sweet Jesus! I never thought Shy could be such a fan girl. I always through that more about RD'

After my thoughts I picked up an audible 'Squee' And I chuckled slightly.

I looked back at her and smiled warmly when she was calmed down.

"Meet me at sugar cube corner in two hours, we will be waiting with everyone else." She nodded and went to get ready to leave.

As I walked through ponyville I was thinking about what to say to my friends, I decided to go to sugarcube corner first cause then I won't need to explain what happened to her. I made my way there and pushed open the door. I saw Pinkie sitting at the counter... well... bouncing... So I walked over and smiled, Which she seemed to love.

"So... Pinkie, I am going to a party at a club tonight, do you want to come? I have a back stage pass."

Her face immediately lit up and she nodded furiously.

"Alright, we will all meet here in two hours, alright?"

She nodded again, and I left the bakery. I made my way towards Rarity's and knocked on the door. she sung out a little musical tone and opened the door and went wide eyed. She leaped through the air and grabbed me in a deathly tight hug. After I recovered from the surprise I managed to choke out a few words...

"R-Rarity...a-a-air...."

She gasped and let go, where I took in a deep breath a few times and calmed myself, looking down at her crimson face. I couldn't help but chuckle. She looked back up at me and was about to ask a question about me being gone. I know that look, I have seen it on twilight way to often.

"Rarity... everything is fine, I Pinkie promised remember? I will tell you all everything when we are all together." She smiled and agreed.

I told her about the party and to my surprise was excited to go. I asked her why she was so pumped. And she said she had never been able to meet vinyl in person during a party. I nodded and made my way to the library. When I got there I knocked three times. The door swung open to reveal a unicorn buried in a book.

"Not now... come back later..." After that the door swung shut.

I sat there for a few moments before the door shot back open and Twilight flew out and hugged me tightly.

"A-Air..." I said.

She quickly got down smiling with huge eyes.

"Jeez... I seem to have that effect on ponies.... I feel like my ribs will break someday." I ended that with a joking tone.

She smiled and gestured for me to come in. So I came in and before she could ask any questions I decided I should make myself heard.

"Twilight, I know you may have many question, but hold off for now. I got invited to a party tonight..." She rolled her eyes, expecting Pinkie pie.

"...by Vinyl..." Her face immediately lit up and she ran to me and stopped within millimeters of my face with a HUGE grin.

I sat there for a moment petrified. Seeing a smile like that... is just unnatural... even after being with Pinkie pie when she has the giggles. When I found my voice I looked back into her eyes.

"And um... she gave me a ticket." I said holding out a ticket. Her eyes went wide...er..... if that's possible.... "You know what this is don't you?" She nodded. "Good, then I don't need to explain, "I want you to meet us in sugarcube corner in two hours."

She seemed confused at first. "But... It's not dark for another three...?"

I walked to the door and stopped as I reached it. "Well, I expected you all have a lot of questions?" She thought about it then nodded furiously.

I left the door and begun to walk towards Sweet apple acres. I was half way there when I got thinking.

'Now how in the he-hay... am I going to tell RD?'

As if on queue a cyan blur shot towards me and tackled me to the ground. When I got out of my daze I saw a cyan pegasus hugging me.

'Oh for the love of...'

I managed to push her off me this time because she was holding closer to my stomach, not my chest. She looked up at me and spoke at a faster speed than Pinkie.

"Oh my gosh! Are you alright! Where were you! What happened! Where did you go! That was so awesome when you were like, 'Don't touch Twi!' And like dove and then-" I shoved my hand in front of her mouth.

"Enough Pinkie." I said with a slight grin.

She stopped for a moment before slumping back and blushing brightly. She looked back at me forcing a "Don't worry, I am still cool" look, but I could see right through her.

"You're excited to see me I am guessing? I haven't been gone THAT long!" She looked me up and down and shrugged.

"Anyway, I got invited to a party tonight, by Vinyl, and she gave me a pass." I pulled out the pass and showed it to her, revealing her fan-girlish side for a moment. "And it lets us go backstage to talk to her and stuff." Right there she exploded with a loud "Squee" And starting hopping all over the place around me. I couldn't help but slightly laugh my ass of....Ok I exploded onto the ground for a few minutes.

When we were both calm I looked back to her. "Meet me and the others at sugarcube corner In about two hours." She nodded and shot off.

I continued my walk to sweet apple acres. When I finally reached it I saw Applejack bucking trees. I watched for a moment as she hit one and an apple bounced off of the bucket and rolled down a slant towards me.

"Oh pony feathers!" Is all I heard.

I bent down and picked up the apple. As I walked towards her she turned around to look for the apple. She saw me and froze for a moment as I placed the apple in the bucket. I looked back at her, still silent.

"Well at least your not hugging me too, I think it would kill me this t-" Nnope.

She flew into the air and wrapped her hooves around me. This may have been the most painful death grip I have ever felt. Before it felt like I was going to black out she let go of me and backed up a step.

"Hehehe.... sorry bout' that. Ah'm glad yer back!" I nodded in agreement.

I looked at her when I finally stabilized my breathing. "So, AJ, I got invited to a party tonight by Vinyle, I got a pass that lets us go backstage. Want to come along?"

She thought about it for a moment then smiled and yelled back to Big Mac somewhere in the rows of trees that she will be gone for the rest of the day. I told her when and where to meet and I walked off towards my house. When I got there I was surprised at what I saw. I could see Flutter shy talking to a certain grey pegasus.

"Ditzy!" I yelled

She turned around and smiled.

"Well, It's been a while huh CJ?" I nodded in agreement.

"Well, I have two thing for you today, first we would like to ask you to come back to the post, it has been slow since you left since we have had trouble moving boxes and things like that."

"Sure Ditzy, I was planning on asking tomorrow anyway."

She nodded and continued. "I also have this package for you."

I looked at a medium sized box behind her and walked toward it. I looked it over and noticed there was a note attached to it. I pulled it off and read it.

Dear CJ

I have created some clothes for you to wear tonight, but had to send them to Canterlot to be fitted with a little something 'extra' so it will be sent to you by mail, I hope you like it!

Sincerely,

Rarity

I smiled and looked back at the box. I opened it up and pulled out a shirt that was white with some black in it. Then the pants which were the same but a little bit of red. Then finally a sweater that was like the shirt... but seemed... somehow cooler. About 20% more if you ask me. And it was patterned with designs like DJ symbols and notes and stuff.... overall, it looked freaking amazing.

"Oh... my... CJ, that looks great." I nodded in agreement.

I then asked if Ditzy would like to come, but she said she was too busy with Dinky, so I nodded and turned to Flutter shy.

"Shy, I'll see you at sugarcube corner. I need to get ready."

I walked to my house with the box and went inside.

******************************

When I got to the bakery I noticed everyone was there. So we sat down and started asking and answering question. When it was all finished we left to go to the party. Still a lot of uneven stares at Pinkie. But they let it slide after a bit. When we arrived at the club we walked in. I didn't know where it was, but you could hear this place from a mile away. We all walked in and looked around. Lots of ponies were in a crowd dancing while others were near the wall talking.

"Well, what do you guys want to do first?" They all gave me a deadpan stare.

"Mmmk follow me." I said sad that I didn't get quite the reaction I had hoped.

We made our way to a door where two ponies were sitting 'Guarding' it. I walked up to them and they looked at me. I showed them the pass and they let us all through. We made our way up a small set of stairs and came to a place where we could see a large turntable and a white unicorn sitting there. She looked up at me and pulled off her headset she had half over her ears.

"CJ! Whats up!" She said to me.

"Not much, I just brought my friends along if that's cool." She nodded and looked at the six ponies.

"Whats up everypony! Come over here and I'll show you how this works." Everyone bolted to her, Flutter shy in the lead.

I began to walk off before hearing a voice call for me.

"Hey CJ! Come here!" I turned around and walked towards Vinyl.

"You seem to know a good deal about music. Is that your talent?"

"Humans don't really have a special talent, we can be good at many things. But I always loved music, my dad used to make his own and showed me how to do it."

She nodded and gestured me to come forward. So I did.

"Ok, do you know how to use this?" She pointed at the table.

"Ya I have used one before."

"Alright, here you go." She plugged in my (now her's) I-pod in and started playing one of my favorite songs.

"Lets see what you can do!"

I walked up to the table and started mixing and messing around. I had no idea how I knew all of this. But it came naturally. I thought the song was coming out horribly. When I was done I turned to Vinyl and the others who all had their mouths wide open.

"What? Was it that bad?" I asked with a bit of worry in my voice.

Then I heard it... A slight sound. Cheering, coming from the party floor. The place we were in was like a balcony sort of thing. With a sheet of glass in front of us so we can overlook the party floor. All of the ponies were cheering at the room we were in. I turned back to Vinyl and my friends, still wide eyed and mouths on the floor. Finally Vinyl found her voice.

"Dude... that was awesome!"

"It wasn't that good..." I said slightly embarrassed.

She looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "Are you kidding? You did in one try what usually takes me hours of retries!" She said, still amazed, "Your cutie mark must me a DJ or something!"

"Humans don't have a cutie mark."

"Well, if you were a pony, I bet my life it would be."

After that, Flutter shy and Rainbow were constantly bombarding me with questions like,

"Are you a DJ on your planet?"

"Can you do that again?"

"Can you teach me?"

"When did you get so much more awesome!"

They followed me the whole night, Rainbow bragging to everypony we walked by about how I had played that song. While Flutter shy just followed along staring at me.

'Hm... a DJ... you know... I could do that! It's a great time consumer!'

The rest of the day went along smoothly and I was called now and again to mix the random song, and every time it would turn out as good as the last. I would have remembered all of it if pinkie hadn't brought in the punch....

The new me

Chapter 9: The new me

I slowly began to regain consciousness, but immediately regretted it. My head began to throb with immense pain.

'Oh my god, it feels like an enraged raccoon is in my skull'

I sat there for a moment, rubbing my temples to try and ease the pain. But nothing worked, I gave up and just lay there. I could see it through my eyelids it was bright. Then I heard a voice.

"O-Oh... your awake, here, let me close the windows." The light dimmed.

I groaned with pain as I slowly started to open my eyes. I noticed I was at Flutter shy's. I looked around and immediately began to feel dizziness.

"S-Shy... where is the bathroom..."

"O-Oh... why would yo-...oh.... upstairs first door to your right."

I shot up the stairs and into the bathroom. I heaved over the toilet and stayed there for a few minutes, emptying my stomach. I began to feel a slight patting on my back, I turned slightly to see a sympathetic Flutter shy there, patting her hoof on my back.

"S-Sorry Shy..."

She looked at me and smiled. "It's alright CJ, You were very drunk last night. You couldn't even make it home. You passed out near my house so I decided to bring you here."

I wiped my mouth and began rinsing. When I was done I went to go freshen my breath and take a shower at my house. I turned to Flutter shy and gave her a hug.

"Thanks Shy... I just wish I could remember everything that happened."

"O-Oh... if you want to know, I could tell you, I don't drink."

"Hehe... Alright, come with me to my house, when I take a shower and stuff you can tell me."

She nodded, slightly snickering at me as she stared at my face, I decided to ignore it. We walked along a path, me almost tripping every few steps, until we finally made it to my house. I put the key in and opened the door. I motioned for her to sit on a nearby couch. I made my way up the stairs towards the bathroom.

'Jeez... this hangover sucks more than the last'

I continued to the bathroom. When I reached it I closed the door behind me, and began to strip down. I stopped when I saw something on the corner of my eye. I looked into the mirror and gasped in surprise. In the mirror, I could see my reflection with the words 'DJ D1sASt3R....' marked on my head. I sat there for a moment before my mood went from anger to enjoyment.

'DJ D1sASt3R... you know... that's a cool name, but why did they write it on MY head!.'

I got into the shower then and began to rinse it off.

**********************

I exit the bathroom feeling great. The hangover was beginning to fade, my face looked normal again, and my breath was great again. I put on the same pair of clothes from last night that were now outside the bathroom.... there was a note sitting on them.

I washed them for you... I didn't know you hummed in the shower....

As I finished reading that my face turned deep red and I heard a low giggle from downstairs.

'That sneaky little...'

I put on the clothes and walked downstairs, with a still visible blush on my face. I looked up to Flutter shy who had her 'Innocent' look on.

"You know, sometimes you can be just a bad a liar as AJ." I said with a small smirk.

Flutter shy just laughed a bit and got up.

"So... what would you like to know about last night?"

I turned to her and thought for a moment.

"Oh, I got one, who is DJ D1sASt3R?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

Flutter shy looked at me and smiled. "Oh no one... just a new DJ that Vinyl thought was awesome."

"Oh? A new DJ? That's cool."

She giggled a little bit but I just ignored it.

"C'mon Shy, lets go to sugarcube corner. I am in the mood for a cupcake."

She nodded and followed me towards ponyville. On the way thinking of more questions.

"So... anything crazy happen last night?"

She thought about it for a moment and then answered. "Well, other than you beating berry punch in a drinking contest, creating a new form of music you called dubstep, and making RD have a fangasim when she saw Vinyl... nnope."

That was the most funny imitation of Big Mac I have ever seen. But then I started thinking. New form of music? I brought dubstep into this world... I wonder how it will turn out. When we reached ponyville I thought of another question.

"Shy, I am pretty sure YOU were more excited than RD about meeting Vinyl, I didn't take you as quite the music lover."

She blushed brightly and looked back to me. "W-Well... why can't I love music? Just because I'm shy doesn't mean I can't love things!"

I looked back at her with a warm smile. "Shy, what I meant was you never showed any sign of liking that kind of music. And just so you know, that's what I love about you."

She looked at me in curiosity.

So I continued. "You come off as a shy pony that seems afraid of almost everything. But on the inside you are a pony who loves things that most wouldn't even think of you liking, If you ask me, thats kinda cool."

She smiled and kept walking.

"And a bit sexy..."

At that moment she looked up at me with a VERY deep blush on her face. I couldn't do anything but laugh.

As we walked I noticed all of the ponies staring at me. But this time it was different. They were not stares of curiosity or fear. but stares of amazement and other emotions. It was beginning to weird me out more than the old stares. Until finally I made it to sugarcube corner. I opened the door and the few ponies that were at the line up or sitting at the tables talking went silent and stared at me in awe. Flutter shy couldn't help but laugh.

'Ok... whats going on? Did I do something really dumb last night? No... Shy would have told me.'

I walked up to the counter and rang the bell, within a second a pink blur formed in front of me and dissipated into a pink pony jumping up and down.

"Oh! Hi CJ! Last night was AWESOME! We need to do that again some time! All the music you had! And all the other things like the dancing the drinking, DJ D1sASt3R, an-" I cut off her onslaught of words with my hand to her mouth.

"Pinkie, enough, I just wanted to order a cupc-" Before I was finished a cupcake appeared in front of my face.

"I will never get used to your speed..." She gave a small laugh as I reached into my pocket.

She reached to my hand and stopped me. Now I was very confused.

She leaned over and whispered in my ear. "You don't have to pay, you already brought a lot of business in, and this is my thanks."

I lifted an eyebrow and turned around, to see a HUGE lineup of ponies behind me.

'Uh... ok.. that's it... I'm figuring out whats going on now.'

As I walked forward with Flutter shy behind me, I could hear the ponies ordering the same thing as me. I walked out of the bakery and over to the library. When I got there I knocked a few times. Spike answered and pulled me in, slamming the door. I sighed and went back to the door and opened it, letting a shaken up Flutter shy in. I shut the door and turned to see Twilight rolling her eyes and spike standing there holding.... a quill and paper? He was pushing it towards me.

'Ok... now I am confused.'

I looked at Twilight. "Uh... Twi, can you tell me why everypony is acting so strange around me?"

Flutter shy was losing it beside me, she found something hysterical. But what. Twilight looked at me and gave a small smile.

"I'm not sure, how about you tell me mister D1sASt3R?"

I opened my mouth to speak but shut it as the realization truck hit me square in the face.

"Whoa whoa whoa... your telling me... I am DJ D1sASt3R?"

She nodded, causing me to begin to tremble a bit.

"But... how?"

"Well, with all the music you were playing last night, Vinyl made you an official DJ" She pointed to my jacket.

On the right side of my chest lay a patch that had an image of headphones. Along with the name DJ D1sASt3R under it.

'How the hell did I miss that?'

I looked back at her, and I could tell she was not done.

"So, she gave you that patch, and you both figured out a good name. Which reminds me, she wants to see you today, after your work."

'My work... my wo- SHIIIIIIIIIT'

At that moment I turned to Flutter shy and gave her a quick hug.

"I'mreallybusygottagobye!"

And with that I ran out of the library. A few moments later I ran back in to see a shocked Flutter shy, a laughing Twilight, and a sad Spike. I bolted over to spike and scribbled down a few words.

To Spike, My number 1 fan
Yours truly DJ D1sASt3R

I didn't have time to think of anything else. I gave it to the happy looking dragon and bolted out of the library. I reached the post within 5 minutes. When I got there I burst through the doors heaving heavy breaths. I looked up to see a smiling Ditzy.

"Sorry I'm...Late....I...Had to..." She cut me off by lifting her hoof.

"It's fine Mr. D1sASt3R, I heard about what happened last night, I figured you would be late." She said laughing quietly.

I looked at her and returned the smile with a slight nod.

****************************

After work I made my way to the library getting more stares and the occasional ask for an autograph. It was slightly annoying. I made it to the library and walked in, to see Twilight there with a cup of tea along with Flutter shy talking about something. They went quiet when they saw me.

"Hey everypony, I just wanted to ask you Twi, where am I supposed to meet Vinyl?"

She looked up and smiled. "She said to meet her at the park. Oh, and to wear something else to not draw attention."

Before I end up being tackled by a overly happy Spike, I decided to say goodbye and leave.

***************************

I made my way to the park wearing different clothes I had Rarity make me. They were close to the design of my DJ clothes, but these ones were black. But it didn't matter what clothes I wore, It is kind of obvious as to who I am. How many other DJ humans do you see walking around in Equestria.

I got to the park and sat down next to Vinyl looking at me a bit mad. So I looked back at her with a curious look.

"What?"

"Your clothes dude! You look the same!"

I just stared at her. "Oh! Sorry, I guess I have to wear clothes so they can't tell which human here is the DJ."

She thought about that for a moment. "Oh...yeah.....forgot about that."

She looked back at me when out of her thought trance. "So anyway, the reason I called you here. I wanted to ask you something."

I looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

"I am going to be retiring soon, and I don't want all of my equipment to go to waste...."

'Oh I see where this is going.'

"So, I wanted to know, If you would take it and become the new main DJ?"

At that moment she gave me eyes worse than Flutter shy's.

"Graagrahfgra... fine.... I'll do it."

She nearly exploded in happiness. She told me to follow her. So I did, When we got to my house I saw a bunch of boxes sitting there. I looked at the size of them and realized what they were.

"Vinyl, I thought you said when you retire."

She let out a small laugh, and handed me a pair of goggles. They were black with purple lenses that were sized for a human head.

"I did... and I am."

I stood there for a moment before my mind thought of something.

"Vinyl, I don't know where I would put all this stuff. I-"

She cut me off when she pointed to the house. On the left Side I could see walls being put up. To the left of my bedroom. A new room, that is fairly large.

"Wow... Vinyl, I can't thank you enough."

She looked at me and chuckled. "No, It's me that has to thank you, I didn't want to throw all this stuff away, It means to much. And now knowing It is going to be taken care of, makes me happy."

I looked at her and smiled. "I am just wondering how everyone will react."

She chuckled a bit more. "Your on your own for that, C-ya around dude." She ended that with raising her hoof.

We fist/hoof bumped and she walked away. I walked over to the house to a worker.

"Any guess how long this will take?"

He looked at me and thought for a moment. "If you want us to bring the stuff in, an hour."

'God damn that's fast'

"That's perfect, I am going to find something to do in the meantime, thanks."

He was caught a bit off guard with the thanks, before nodding and continuing his work. I began walking towards the library, with the goggles in hand.

'This is going to be fucking PRICELESS!'

The new music

Chapter 10: The new music

I made my way to the library with my goggles in my hands. I was smiling the whole way. When I reached it I opened the door to see Flutter shy standing there with a book held in front of her by Twilight. Before I could read the title Flutter shy grabed the book from the air and held it against her, blocking it from sight.

'Uh... OK then...'

"Well, anyways, guess what?"

They both looked at each other than shrugged. I showed them the goggles and they sat there staring at them for a moment.

"Vinyl gave them to me, she is retiring and I am now the primary DJ here. She gave me her equipment and I promised to take care of it."

Twilight sat there shocked, while Flutter shy was about to faint.

'Hehe... fangirls...'

"And I wanted to ask if you wanted to get something to eat while I wait for my house to finish the changes. They are building a new room for all of the equipment."

She managed a shaky nod.

"O-Oh... OK.... b-but I have to p-put this b-book away at my h-house..." She said with a large blush on her face.

I nodded. "Alright, I'll walk with you."

We left the library and made our way towards her house. On the way I couldn't take my eyes off the book.

'Gah, what is it, its driving me crazy.'

So I looked at her. "Shy, what book is that?"

The moment I said it I saw a huge blush form on her face.

"I-It's n-nothing..."

I shrugged and continued on. When we reached her house I opened the door and let her in. She went over to her saddlebag and grabbed a few things. She slowly slid the book in hoping I wouldn't notice. Then she went upstairs for something. Curiosity got the best of me. I walked over to it and took a look at the book.

'Lets see... Emotion meanings? Huh?' Then I looked at the sub-title 'Featuring love, romance and.....sex... oh.....well....'

I thought of a word to sum it up. 'um...Shit...'

I heard hoof steps coming down the stairs so I placed everything back and ran to the couch. As I sat down she appeared wearing the most beautiful dress I have ever seen. Her gala dress. It somehow looked so much better in person... er..... pony.

We made our way out of the house and I told her to wait a moment. I ran to my house and got my white clothes on instead of the black ones. The black ones were awesome but the white ones seemed more... fitting for this occasion. I left my home and said hi to the workers. Then got back to Flutter shy. Honestly, she looked VERY happy. We made our way to her favorite restaurant again. When we got there we walked up to be seated. The moment I walked in all of the waiters perked up.

"H-Hello Mr. Chris and Miss Flutter shy, how may I help you today?" I was taken aback from the service.

"Uh... quite well actually, could you find us a table?"

He looked at me and made a slight bow. "But of course, we have one waiting for you. Please follow me."

I began following him until both me and Flutter shy found ourselves in the VIP area.

'Being a DJ does have it's perks. I just never understood why DJ's are so loved in Equestria... maybe they are rare?'

We sat down at the table and we placed our orders. When he left Flutter shy just started staring at me. So I decided to have a little fun. I began to sway back and forth, her head following me. I leaned far off to the right, then quickly moved to the left and she lost her balance and fell over. She immediately got up and looked at anything but me. I couldn't help but give a laugh.

"Shy, I'm not dumb, whats on your mind?" I asked causing her to look away again.

"I...uh... have never been out with a celebrity before..." I could tell that wasn't it but whatever.

"Ya, I'm still getting used to it. I didn't even know I had the skill to be a DJ, but apparently I do."

She nodded and then our food came. We began eating and talking about random things and telling jokes, a pretty good night if you ask me.

When we were done eating I paid for the meal and left a tip. I hadn't been spending money on anything, so I could afford a small tip. As we left the restaurant I could hear the waiter make a loud "Squee" sound. Flutter shy turned and looked at me.

"How much did you give him?"

I looked at her and smiled, "Enough." I ended it with a wink.

We made it to my house and I could tell it was finished. I walked up to the door, Flutter shy beside me, and opened it. We walked in and went up the stairs. Normally It is a fairly large room with a door to the right that goes to the bathroom. But now there was a door to the left. We walked into it and saw a large room with Equipment all hooked up and ready to go.

"Hey Shy, wanna see how it works?"

She almost fainted but forced a smile trying to keep her cool and nodded. I laughed and walked over to the turntable. I plugged in my I-pod and played a song. I began remixing it and all that amazing stuff. When the song finished I saw Flutter shy standing there stomping her hooves on the ground smiling wildly.

"Haha... thanks. Tomorrow I am planning on having a party at the club, I am going to mix some songs tonight for it. If you want at any time at any party to ask for a song to be played that you mixed, feel free."

She stared at me wide eyed. "I can come b-back s-stage whenever?"

I nodded. "Well, duh I AM your boy f- er... colt friend."

She nodded furiously while blushing. I walked up to her and handed her the pass Vinyl gave me. Although I made a few altercations to it so she can use it whenever. When I handed it to her she made the same "Squee" sound.

'I will NEVER get sick of that sound.'

At that moment she flew up to me and planted a long kiss on my lips before backing away. I sat there surprised. But quickly brushed off the feeling.

"W-Well... I have to get home... I have to feed angel and I also... um... have some reading to catch up on... I'll see you later."

I laughed slightly at the last part, and waved goodbye to her. I stayed up a bit longer remixing songs. I decided my first song to play would be one Rainbow will probably pass out from. A little while later It was around 2 o'clock. I walked over to my bed and stripped to my boxers. I lay down and quickly fell asleep. But as I lay there I couldn't help but feel like there is going to be a... as Pinkie would say it.... a doozy.

An eventful night

Chapter 11: An eventful night

I woke up the next morning with a slight headache. I brushed it off and got up. I began cleaning my white clothes. When they were clean I folded them up and placed them on the bed. I got dressed in the black clothes and jacket and left my house. I went around town telling my friends about the party tonight. Needless to say they were excited. We were all at sugarcube corner eating some sugary treats.

"Hey RD, come here, I want you to hear something." I held up an earphone to one of hear ears and hit play on a song I had finished remixing last night. She instantly smiled.

"Do you like it?"

"It is awesome! Of course I like it!"

"Well, I have some lyrics for it, do you know any colt that would be able to sing them?"

She thought for a moment. "What are the lyrics?"

I gave a small laugh, "That RD, is a surprise." She rolled her eyes.

"Ya I know somepony, I'll bring you to them now if you like."

I turned towards everypony else. "I'll see you all around, remember to come to the party tonight."

They all said goodbye and said they will be there. As we walked (She hovered) she started asking constantly about the song, I just kept telling her she will see. Finally we made it to a small house with a plain wood door. She walked up and knocked. A few moments later a colt answered. He had a blue coat with a whitish blue-ish mane and tail. He had a microphone for a cutie mark. Perfect.

"Hello, my name is Chris, CJ for short." I reached out my hand, which he shook.

"My name is Perfect pitch, and what can I do for you today?"

I looked at him and then began. "I have come here to ask you to sing in one of my songs at the club tonight."

He began thinking hard. Then turned and asked for the lyrics. I handed him a sheet and he read it.

"Alright, I will, just give me some time to practice."

I nodded and said thanks. He replied simply with no problem.

I turned to Rainbow who was just sitting there bored out of her mind. I laughed as I made our way to my house to get a few things. Rainbow returned home.

****************************

I had my goggles on, and It was time to have one hell of a night. I walked into the club and everyone started staring at me, I walked past all my friends who sat there watching me. I motioned for pitch to follow me. So he did. We went back stage and I began setting up. I looked back to pitch who looked a bit worried. I went over to him and put my hand on his shoulder.

"Hey man... what's wrong?"

He looked at me then down at the ground with a heavy sigh. "It's been a long time... and I am a bit nervous."

I looked at him for a bit, then smiled. "You don't have to worry about anything man, you are going to do great. But if you really don't want to do this, tell me now."

He sat there for a moment then nodded. "I'm alright, lets do this."

I smiled and went to the mic.

"Whats up ponies of ponyville?! I have a special treat for you all today, I call it..." I hit play on the song. (Listen to this while you read) "20% cooler... all credit goes to RD and her friend Perfect pitch!" Then the song began on my Playlist I created.

As the music played I looked down from the balcony like room past the glass. All the ponies sat there listening for a few moments. When the song picked up everyone cheered and went into a full on dance. I looked over to Perfect pitch and gave him a thumbs up. Where he nodded and smiled as he sang.

I walked out of the room to let him concentrate and walked into Flutter shy and RD.

RD was on the ground looking ready to collapse and Flutter shy was freaking out and jumping in place. I walked up and held RD up and held Flutter shy down.

"What did ya guys come up here for? Wanted to make a suggestion?"

Flutter shy was the first to speak up. "No, we wanted to come and tell you h-" She was cut off when RD flew in front of my face.

"OH!!!!! THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU! You are so awesome!" She pulled me into a tight hug. Past her I saw Flutter shy a bit annoyed.

I put my arms up in the air in a "I don't know" manner. Finally RD released the hug and bolted back to the rest of our friends.

"Quite the excited one... huh?" I said to Flutter shy.

"Ya... she can be a bit over reactive at times. But now that she is gone, I need to tell you something." I nodded to her and followed her outside.

(Turn down the music to a muffled volume plox)

I turned to her and gave her a curious look.

"OK, what did you want to tell me?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

She looked very embarrassed and looked strait into my eyes. "Listen, I need you to... um... stay away from me tomorrow... OK?"

That caught me a bit off guard. "Uh...why?"

She started shifting in place. "Well...uh... how much do you know about mares?"

I continued to stare at her. "Uh... enough I guess?"

She took in a deep breath and looked at me. "Well.. every year we... um... each mare... uh... just stay away from me for the next three days OK?"

I still wanted to know but I figured I could just ask someone else later. So I nodded and we went back into the club.

(Turn the music back up)

I walked over to my friends who all looked at me and smiled. And Rainbows smile was probably 20% bigger than Pinkie's (See what I did thar?) I sat down on a chair near them and they all came up to me.

"Wow CJ, ah' never realized how talented ya'll are with music." Said AJ.

"I agree darling, I don't usually like this kind of music but I love yours." Said Rarity with a smile.

"Oh that stuff you did with the sound is incredible!" Said Pinkie.

"I wanted to say thanks for.. um... you know... giving me the credit, your awesome!" Said Rainbow.

"Anytime RD, and thanks everypony, means a lot to me. Now, lets have some fun!" They all nodded in agreement.

We began playing lots of games and even got into a drinking game with berry punch, I didn't even get tipsy, having fingers make things to easy. Then I noticed a certain white unicorn by the punch. I walked over to her.

"Sup Vinyl?" She turned to me and put on a huge smile.

I lifted up my goggles and winked at her. "Party is goin great huh?"

"Hay ya it is, you have talent. I can't wait to hear what you make next!" We sat there for a while talking.

I finally said goodbye and I walked away towards the rest of my friends. When I got there sat next to Flutter shy on a couch with my friends.

"You all having fun?"

They all nodded

I sat down next to them and began talking with them about everything. I told them things about my next songs. they were all excited about them. epecialy RD and Flutter shy. We sat there for what felt like hours talking when it was only a few minutes. We then remained silent for a while listening to the music. So I decided to just relax.

(If it is not on it, switch to the skrillex one)

Then a familiar song came on, and I put on a huge smile and sat up.

"One of my favorites. RD, you are going to love this one."

They all cocked their heads and began to listen. They all loved it, ESPECIALLY Rainbow. Flutter shy stayed quiet the rest of the time after the talk outside. After a bit of talk the rest of the time we basically sat there listening to the music or dancing for fun now and again. Well, that was when I was not being mobbed by people asking for autographs.

A little while later when the club began to empty, I went up and pulled out my I-pod. On my way home I had a few things running through my mind.

'I wonder why Shy want's me to stay away... was it something I did? Shit I forgot to ask someone while I was at the club... wait... no never mind, I wouldn't want to embarrass her...' I decided to deal with it in the morning. It was 3 O'clock and I needed to get up for work tomorrow. I walked up to my house and unlocked it and walked through my house. I went upstairs and pulled off my dirty clothes, and took clean ones and placed them at the feet of the bed.

'Whatever It is I hope It is nothing bad'

Turns out... I was right about the "doozy" coming.

Day one: Is it hot in here?

Chapter 12: Is it hot in here?

I awoke the next morning very tired. I took a quick shower, got dressed in my white DJ clothes and made my way to work.

**********************

After work I decided to go to the library to ask Twilight a few things. On the way getting lots of smiles. And a lot, I mean A LOT of people asking for autographs. Now I see why Vinyl always hid. When I reached the library I opened the door to see Flutter shy and Twilight standing there.

"-I don't know if I can hold it..." She trailed off when she saw me. She stood there frozen. I walked over to Twilight and gave her a, "Whats wrong" look.

Twilight started shifting her eyes between the door and me. Then I noticed Flutter shy shaking slightly and trying not to look at me. Then it hit me, she told me to stay away from her for a bit.

"Oh... um... I'll come back later Twi... bye..." I made my way to the door only to be tackled by a purple blur.

Spike was on top of me with ANOTHER quill and piece of paper. I quickly signed it and stood up giving it to him. I looked back up in time to see Flutter shy in mid air pouncing at me. I ducked and rolled to the left. I looked at her again to see her get up and start staring at me... almost like she was hungry.

'Wait wait wait... saying she cant control it... trying to hold me down... once a year... Oh... well fuck me. She is in heat, oh that is just perfect...'

I watched her slowly make her way towards me, I started looking at Twilight for help. She just stood there covering her face. I looked back at Flutter shy who jumped at me again. I dove to my right and ran at the door. I opened it and walked out shutting it behind me. I let out a sigh of relief. Then I heard the sound of a window open. I looked up and saw Flutter shy climbing out of it. I went into a full on sprint through ponyville with a horny mare chasing me through the air.

'I swear... this will NOT be cool if I am raped by a pony...'

I finally made it to my house and opened the door, shutting it behind me.

***************************

I spent the rest of the day in my house and now it was late. I walked up to bed and lay down. I immediately fell asleep from the running I had been doing earlier.

I was woke up in the middle of the night by a low giggle and a sensation of my covers moving.

'there is no way.... there is NO.FUCKING.WAY' I slowly opened my eyes to see a yellow mare looking down at me.

I almost had a heart attack at that moment. We sat there for what felt like hours until she begun to shift down.

'Shit... I'm only wearing boxers...'

I waited for the covers to start being pulled away when I flung up and pinned the mare to the bed for a moment before getting up and running out of the room and slamming the door. I could hear some banging on the door for a few moments until it finally stopped. I let out a sigh of relief. Then I heard a downstairs window open. So I went back to my room shutting the door. And began thinking on what to do. I was about to get dressed when a banging was heard on my door again.

'No time...' I thought

I walked over to my window and opened it. Climbing out... in my boxers... and to the ground. When I reached the ground I bolted towards somewhere I could trust. I sprint through ponyville almost naked.

'Thank god it's night right now...'

When I finally got to sweet apple acres I knocked on the house door. A very tired looking AJ answered and looked at me then burst into laughing. When she finally calmed down, she looked at me again.

"Uh... little late to be takin ah nice walk don't ya' think?" She said with a smile.

"Oh hahaha... so funny. but seriously I need your help. I ran here from my home because Shy was.... well.... lets just say needy." I said blushing brightly.

"Hm... so I reckon It's that time already? Alright, come in, ya'll can sleep in the guest room." I thanked her and followed her to the room.

It was a small room with a desk, a mirror, and a single bed. I went over to the window in the room and took a look outside. When I finally felt safe I lay down in the bed.

'Well, one day down...two to go...'

Day two: cat and mouse (pony version)

Chapter 13: Day two: cat and mouse (pony version)

I woke up to the smell of... apples. I slowly got up and stretched. I made my way to the door when I realized I was still in my boxers. I looked over to my right and saw a pair of clothes sitting there. I unfolded them and they were a pair of cargo pants and a shirt. Normal clothes.

'Good, I don't have to wear my DJ outfit all the time now.'

I put them on and walked downstairs. When I got to the bottom of the stairs I looked around to see a kitchen and a table with four ponies sitting there. I looked at them all, then to a very tired looking Applebloom with a messed up mane. I looked at her and smiled, when she saw me she immedietly opened her eyes.

"Why didn't ya'll tell me DJ D1sASt3r was here! Ah' need to go fix my mane!" As she got down to run to the bathroom I held her in place.

"Applebloom, It's fine, you don't have to. I find it kind of cute actually." I said ruffling her mane.

She blushed a bit then smiled and went to sit down. I sat down next to her and she started staring at me.

"Oh, and just call me CJ Applebloom." She nodded and continued to stare.

Finally I looked back at her. "What is it?"

She looked at me even closer and then smiled. "What's it like bein ah' DJ? Is it cool? Can ah' have your autograph?"

I sighed and signed the piece of paper she had in her mouth. "Yes it is fun and cool Applebloom." I said with a chuckle.

She nodded and looked away. But then immediately looked back at me with wide eyes. "Oh! Ya'll HAVE ta' come with me to school today! An' bring that neat song you made for Rainbow!" I cocked my bead a bit.

"Uh... why?"

She looked at me and thought for a moment. "Ah'...uh... Show and tell! Thats it... show and tell..."

"You want to be cool in front of diamond tiara don't you?"

She nodded slowly.

"Hehe, Your a bad a liar as your sis."

At that moment AJ came over with a bunch of apple related food items, Apple pie, Apple fritters, Apple... fries? you name it.

After we finished eating I got up and looked to AJ and Big Mac. "Thanks for letting me sleep the night AJ, and thanks for the great breakfast, I owe you one."

She nodded and smiled. Then I felt a pulling on my pant leg. I looked down to see a impatient looking Applebloom. I told her to follow me, when we got to my house, I opened the door slowly. Applebloom went in to look for Flutter shy, I just told her I am trying to be a ninja.... not REALLY why. She was not there, we went up to my room and opened the door. I saw Flutter shy siting there in the bed sleeping.

'Dear god... she stayed here?'

Applebloom looked at me then told me to hide. So I did. She walked over to Flutter shy and started pushing her. Flutter shy awoke with an "Eeep!" then noticed it was Applebloom.

"Oh, hi Applebloom, what are you doing here?"

"Nuthin... what are YOU doin here?"

Flutter shy started shifting back and forth then looked back at Applebloom.

"I was...uh...watching the house for CJ!" She said a bit loud.

"Uh..huh... well, anyway, CJ told me to tell you he was 'waiting' for you at you house and to hurry up while he was in the mood. I don't know what he meant but he said you would."

Immedietly Flutter shy gasped and shot through an open window to her house. While I had the time I ran and grabbed my I-pod from my bed and changed clothes very fast. We both ran out of the house and hid in a nearby bush. We saw an angry Flutter shy bolt back to the house. A few moments later we heard a VERY loud yell.

"Uh... Applebloom... how did you know..."

She rolled her eyes. "Ah'm not dumb ya know. Ah' know what goin in heat is. An' Flutter shy always gets it BAD."

I nodded and we made our way to the school, when we got there, we stopped outside the room.

"When ah' call your name ya'll come in OK? An' just go with whatever is said."

I nodded and she walked in. A few minutes later I could hear Ms. Cheerilee ask Applebloom about what she is presenting. I head some remarks from silver spoon and diamond tiara. And then Applebloom spoke.

"Yes Ms. Cheerilee, you can come in now!"

I took that hint and opened the door and walked in. All of the kids gasped and stared at me. Applebloom siting there with a happy look on her face.

"Uh... hello everypony... my name Is CJ, Or otherwise known as..." I pointed to the patch on my right side of my jacket. "DJ D1sASt3r."

Everypony there began to watch me in dead silence. Diamond tiara couldn't beleive what she was seeing. Best of all, all of the kids were wearing something that said DJ D1sASt3r on it. It wouldn't be funny, but it was because Diamond tiara was wearing sunglasses with it on it. She quickly took them off, looking embarrassed. I then took out my I-pod and looked at Applebloom.

"And my best friend here..." I pointed to Applebloom... "Has asked I bring in dome music for you all, If that is all right by your teacher. I looked over, and saw she had a coffie cup with DJ D1sASt3r on it.

'How are DJ's so popular!?'

She nodded slowly and I turned my I-pod to speaker and started playing the 20% cooler song. I handed it to Applebloom and bent down.

"Keep it, bring it back to me at the end of the day." I whispered in her ear.

She looked so damn cute there I almost hugged her. I resisted the urge and turned to the teacher. "Thanks for having me here." Then I turned to the door and saw a Flutter shy standing there staring at me.

"Oh... um... as I was saying, I have to go... take care..."

I walked towards the doorway... towards Flutter shy. She moved to the side a bit and the moment I was beside her she put her hoof around my hand. She flew up beside my head.

"You have been very very naughty hiding from me... now just follow me to my house..." She whispered in my ear.

'Well shit. I'm dead. Goodbye world'

We made our way to her house in silence. When we got there I wanted to turn and run. But she had an iron grip on my hand. How was she so strong? She led me into the house and locked the door. She walked me up to her bedroom... using a bit of force... and then locked that door. I stood in the middle of the room next to her bed. In front of me a Flutter shy turning around from the door licking her lips.

"Now... just hold still..."

"Fuck me...." I mumbled

"With pleasure...." She leaped towards me in a blink of an eye.

Day three: Sleepover

Chapter 14: Part three: Sleepover

As she pounced at me my mind went into overdrive. I watched as she was sailing through the air. I reacted with lightning fast speed. I reached over to my side and grabbed the blanket and pulled it in front of me. She flew strait into it and I wrapped it around her. I ran to the door and fumbled with the lock. When I finally got it open I made a break for it. I made it to the bottom floor and went for the door. It was locked and before I had time to unlock it I heard her running towards the stairs. So I turned around and ran over and jumped behind the couch.

'Shit shit shit shit SHIT' I heard her walking around. Searching for me.

"You know you can't hide forever..."

'Ya well I can try'

She continued to search until I heard hoof steps getting closer and closer to the couch. Just before they reached I heard a knock at the door. I heard the steps walk to the door. I peeked out and saw Flutter shy open the door where just outside was Pinkie pie and Twilight.

Pinkie spoke up first. "Hi Flutter shy, what are you doing?"

"O-Oh... nothing right now."

Then Twilight. "Alright, then I suppose you can help us. We saw CJ run past my house and through ponyville a few minutes ago yelling something and I think he may be hurt."

Flutter shy's eyes widened. "O-Oh... thanks... I'll got get him."

As soon as she left Twilight turned around and looked in the house. She began searching it with her eyes.

'Huh... she lied for me... that's aw-'

I was cut off by a loud voice beside me behind the couch. "I FOUND HIM I FOUND HIM!" I jumped from behind the couch and towards the door. I landed on my face after flying over the couch. I looked up to see a laughing Twilight and an excited Pinkie pie.

"Uh... hey! Whats up?" I said, trying to keep my cool.

"Well, we came to help you out with the Flutter shy thing. After tomorrow she should be fine. You can stay at the library."

"Uh... how do I get there without Shy seeing me?"

She points to her horn and I give her the "Oh..." look. She then teleportes us to the library. The trip makes you a little dizzy, but hey. Better than being raped by a pony. After a while of playing painfully boring games there was a knock. I hid upstairs while Twilight answered. It was late out and I couln't make out the voice outside. When the door closed I came down and Twilight was holding an I-pod.

"Applebloom brought this here because she couldn't find you. Here" She floated it over to me. I caught it and nodded in thanks.

"Follow me, I'll show you where you can sleep for the night."

I followed her upstairs and past her room. I opened another door and inside was a small room with a bed and a window.

"This is the spare room. You can stay here."

"Thanks Twi. I really thought I was done for back there." I said, grinning.

She blushed and looked back at me. "O-Oh ya... no problem... anytime." She walked out of the room quickly.

'Uh... k?'

I went over to the bed and stripped to my boxers. I got in the bed and dozed off.

(Now THIS is day three, the last chapter stopped partway through two :/ sorry.)

I woke up slowly to the smell of pancakes. I stumbled out of the bed and put on my clothes. I walked down stairs and sat down at a table. From another door I saw Twilight come out holing a plate full of pancakes. She walked over and placed them all on the table. She sat down and pulled a plat to her with some pancakes on them, I did the same. After a few moments Spike showed up and took his own plate. We sat there for a while and I kept noticing Twilight looking at me.

I decided to speak up. "Twi, It looked like you want to tell me something, what is it?"

Spike started snickering and Twilight looked at him and he shut up. She look back at me.

"N-Nothing CJ... just a lot of stuff on my mind." She said with red face.

I rolled my eyes and continued to eat. When I was done, I looked at Twilight again.

"Uh... Twi, what about my job... what do I tell Ditzy?"

"Oh I already told her about what was going on. she said she is ok with you missing a few days."

"Huh... thanks Twi."

She blushed deeply..."N-No problem..."

I gave her a curious look but dropped it. I got up and grabbed their dishes. I began walking to the kitchen door.

"Oh, I can wash those, you don't have to."

"Naw, It's alright, I can do it quick, fingers and all."

I walked into the kitchen and put the dishes in the sink. I began washing them when the door opened. I looked over my shoulder and saw Twilight standing there.

"Uh... hey Twi, what's up?"

She just stared at me until she began to tremble a bit then ran back through the door.

'OK... thanks for the info.'

I finished up the last dish and dried off my hands. I walked to the door and stepped back to the main room of the library. I walked up to Twilight.

"Hey Twi, any books in here you recommend?"

She thought about it for a moment then pulled a book from the wall and handed it to me.

'History of Equestrian music, cool'

"Thanks Twi, I'm sure I'll love it."

I began making my way to the door and got stopped by a purple aura.

"Are you crazy? You can't go out there! Flutter shy might see you!"

I looked at her and smiled. "Hehe.... I'll do my best to stay out of her sight. Alright?"

She replied with a nasty look.

"Is this just some trick so you can have me all to yourself?" I said smiling.

She gasped and let her magic link go.

"N-No... I-I w-was j-just..."

I cut her off. "I was kidding Twi, Cya around." With that I opened the door and walked out.

Bad choice.

The moment I did I was mobbed by a good 20 ponies and growing. They were all bombarding me with questions.

'Sometimes... being a DJ SUCKS!'

"Alright alright everypony calm down. Whats all this about?"

One pony spoke up. "There is a new DJ in town, he says he is way better than you will ever be."

I thought about that for a moment.

O-RLY?

*******************************

The ponies led me to a part of the town where there was a certain pony bragging about his musical talents. I walked up to him and looked at him. When he turned around he smiled.

"And what are YOU supposed to be? A mutated dragon?"

'Nope... but I can still maul you like one'

I just stared at him. Finally I spoke up.

"Best DJ huh? What's your name?"

He cleared his throat and spoke proudly.

"I am RaV1Sh3r, and you are YOU?"

I looked at him and spoke. "My name is DJ D1sASt3R... and I wanted to see what you could do."

He looked me up and down. "Oh please... YOUR DJ D1sASt3R? Pfft whatever. Come on. I have speakers set up, in case someone wanted to challenge me."

I got up next to the setup and he went into it. He started pushing all the buttons and then the music began. After a while he finally finished. I looked at him and gave him a smile.

"Not bad man, not bad. Now it is my turn." I said walking by him.

"Pfft, good luck..." He snickered.

I got up to the mic and was about to speak when I noticed a yellow pegasus looking at me from the crowd.

'God dammit, I completely forgot, well, might as well have fun before my doom'

I took in a breath and went to the mic. "Hello ponyville, DJ D1sASt3R here again..." A roar erupted from the crowd. As it dimmed down a look of worry formed on the other DJ's face. "Heh... yea... anyway, I hope you all enjoy this song! I wasn't planing on revealing it today... but, what the hay!"

I plugged in my I-pod and hit play.

Epic rap battles of history (kind of)

Chapter 15: Epic rap battles of history

I hit play on the song and went up to the mic, I had been practicing singing for most of my songs and I could sing some of them my self. I just hoped this one turned out as well as it did in my head.

The music began... (Here you go!)

The music began and I took a deep breath and began singing.

I'm not a fan of puppeteers but I've a nagging fear
someone else is pulling at the strings
Something terrible is going down through the entire town
wreaking anarchy and all it brings

I can't sit idly, no, I can't move at all
I curse the name, the one behind it all...

Discord, I'm howlin' at the moon
And sleepin' in the middle of a summer afternoon
Discord, whatever did we do
To make you take our world away?

Discord, are we your prey alone,
Or are we just a stepping stone for taking back the throne?
Discord, we won't take it anymore
So take your tyranny away!

I paused for a moment catching my breath, and looked at the crowd, I could not see any reactions from any of them. Not even Flutter shy. The only one giving a reaction was the panicking from the other DJ. I gave a slight laugh and continued my song when I caught my breath.

I'm fine with changing status quo, but not in letting go
Now the world is being torn apart
A terrible catastrophe played by your symphony,
what a terrifying work of art!

I can't sit idly, no, I can't move at all
I curse the name, the one behind it all...

Discord, I'm howlin' at the moon
And sleepin' in the middle of a summer afternoon
Discord, whatever did we do
To make you take our world away?

Discord, are we your prey alone,
Or are we just a stepping stone for taking back the throne?
Discord, we won't take it anymore
So take your tyranny away!

Taking another pause and looking at the crowd. Still no reactions. 'Crap, did they not like it? Is my singing that bad?' Then I noticed Flutter shy and her friends smiling, that was enough to take away all of my fears, I went back to the mic after letting the music go on for a bit.

Discord, I'm howlin' at the moon
And sleepin' in the middle of a summer afternoon
Discord, whatever did we do
To make you take our world away?

Discord, are we your prey alone,
Or are we just a stepping stone for taking back the throne?
Discord, we won't take it anymore
So take your tyranny away!

I stood there for a while. Looking at the crowd. After what felt like hours they all erupted into cheering. I gave a sigh of relief and turned to the other DJ. He had his head down and looked really beat up about this. I walked away from the setup over to him.

"Hey man, you have talent, so what you may not be the best, I bet there are other even better than me. Personally, I think your music was great. One defeat means nothing."

He nodded and smiled a bit. "Thanks man, I'll see you around." He gave me a nod and went to pack up his stuff.

I looked over and saw my friends walking towards me. Flutter shy ahead of them.

'Aw shit....'

I braced myself for impact, a moment later I was tackled by a yellow pegasus. I opened my eyes and she was staring down at me.

"That was AMAZING! You are AWESOME at music!" She said, planting a huge kiss on my lips.

She got off realizing basically all of ponyville was watching us. She went deep red and I laughed. But I kept my eyes one her. Just in case.

"Wow dude! You are really good!" Said Rainbow.

"Meh... I could probably do better." I said with a sad excuse for a smile. They all laughed and then dissipated saying there good bye's.

Me and Flutter shy were left alone... I looked towards her and she was staring right at me.

"Uh... Shy? Are you OK?"

She slowly nodded then put on a mischievous smile.

'Gah crap'

"Listen Shy... can it wait until tomorrow? I am kind of tired after that..."

She just continued to stare at me. "I don't think so...." She grabbed my hand and started walking me to her house.

Once again, she felt like she had an iron grip. When we reached her house we went up to her room. When the door was locked she turned to me and started walking to me.

'THINK DAMMIT THINK!'

I got an idea.

"Alright Shy, I'll do it."

She cocked her head a bit.

"If..."

She continued to stare in interest.

"I am in control."

She thought about it for a moment then nodded. She walked over to the bed and lay down on her back and closed her eyes.

"Hehe... hurry up..."

I acted fast. I grabbed the bedsheets and the blanket that were on the floor and walked over to her. I jumped onto the bed and held her down. I tied all of her legs down to the bed. I backed off a bit and looked at her. She opened her eyes and began to get VERY mad.

"You let me out of this RIGHT now mister!"

I shook my head. "Sorry Shy, It's for your own good, I'll let you out tomorrow."

Through her yelling and screaming I lay down on the couch downstairs with a spare blanket and pillow and dozed off.

'Tomorrow is going to be VERY awkward...'

Awkward? NAW!

Chapter 16: Awkward? NAW!

I woke up suddenly to a scream. I looked around then remembered I was in Flutter shy's. I got up and stretched. Then made my way up the stairs. I opened the door and stepped inside to see Flutter shy staring at me.

"Oh.. its you... b-but... why am I t-tied up...?"

I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "You don't remember what happened after the concert thing?"

She thought about it for a moment then her face went pure red. I went over to the bed and untied her. I sat on the bed and she walked up beside me and sat down. Leaning against my arm.

"I'm so sorry... i just can't control it..."

I looked at her and pulled her to a hug. "It's alright Shy, no harm done." She smiled and returned the hug.

She started laughing at me for some reason. Then it hit me. I was still only wearing my boxers.

"I thought it felt a bit cold..." She lost it there and fell on her back laughing.

"Haha very funny."

I walked out of the room and got my clothes. I brought them up to the bathroom and went inside. I shut the door behind me and yelled to Flutter shy.

"Hey Shy! I'm taking a shower, alright?"

I heard a soft reply. "Alright CJ, I'm going to start breakfast."

*******************

After the shower and a great breakfast I walked towards the front door. I turned back to Flutter shy.

"Oh, and Shy?"

She looked up and in my eyes curiously.

"Just so you know. I had considered it."

She cocked her head sideways.

"T-Then... why didn't you do it?"

I continued to look at her.

"Because I don't think it is something that should be forced. Anyway, I'll see you later."

Flutter shy smiled and waved good bye. I walked out the door and took in a deep breath. I walked towards ponyville and was stopped by Rarity.

"Oh, hi Rarity. What's up?"

"Oh, not much dear. I do have some new clothes for you here." She lifted a box to me with her magic.

"Cool Rarity! Thanks."

"No problem dear, you are a good friend."

She started walking away and turned back to me for a moment.

"You also brought a lot of business in for me!" She said with a smile at the end.

"Haha, anytime Rarity."

I brought the box to my house. I opened It up and took a look at what was inside. What I saw amazed me. Inside was a black shirt and a green and black jacket. The jacket's colors seemed to be half and half and mix in the middle. In the center of my shirt was a distorted figure of discord. the pants matched the jacket as well in color.

'I think she is going to do this EVERY song' I thought, laughing a bit.

I put on the clothes and walked towards ponyville. Everyone looking at me on the way. Then three fillies came up to me.

"Hey look! It's CJ!" They said in unison.

"Hey hey, calm down, so, what's up?"

They looked up and then Applebloom spoke. "We wanted t' know if ya'll could... oh ah' don't know... give us ah' souvenir or something?" When she finished all three of them put on huge smiles.

"Hm... I don't know..."

They all tackled me and started jumping on me.

"pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseple-"

"Alright! Alright I will." They all got off and watched me, smiling.

"Here you can have these." I reached into my jacket and pulled out a pair of goggles and handed it to them.

Their faces lit up and they all screamed in joy and ran off.

'I don't wear em much anyway'

I walked through ponyville with no specific destination in mind. I finally stopped at the park and sat down on a bench. I sat there for a good 20 minutes with my music playing in my ears. Then someone sat beside me. It was Pinkie.

"Hi CJ! How are you doing?"

"Hey Pinkie, I'm doing alright, although I AM kind of bored. I have been thinking of a song to mix, but I need a singer."

"Can't you sing it?"

"No, I need a mare's voice to sing this one." I said winking at her.

"Huh... who are you going to ask?"

"Someone who loves to sing, and has a great voice."

"Flutter shy?"

"No, someone who usually can't stay still." I said, looking at her.

"Rainbow dash?"

'Is she serious?'

"NO! I mean YOU Pinkie!"

"Oh! Alrighty! I can come to you place tomorrow okie-dokie?"

I nodded to her. "Sure Pinkie, you may like the lyrics anyway."

"Cool! Hey! Come to sugarcube corner in a bit! I have a special cake just for you!"

I smiled at her. "Alright Pinkie, thanks, see you soon."

She smiled even wider and then hopped off.

I sat there for about another 20 minutes then got up and made my way to sugarcube corner. When finally got there I pushed open the door and walked in. It was pitch black.

'Hm... must be another party' I thought.

I stood in the darkness before I could hear some rustling from the kitchen than a pan hitting the floor.

'I know Pinkie... she takes surprises seriously... what's going on'

I slowly made my way to the kitchen door and peaked inside. When my eyes adjusted to the cold darkness around me, I saw Pinkie on the floor. Out like a light. I ran over to grab her when something wailed me on the back of the head.

Everything went dark

The fire within

Chapter 17: The fire within

I slowly began to wake up slowly and when my eyes adjusted I took a look around. I was on the ground and all around me stood tall trees. I slowly got to my feet and looked around. I noticed a pink blob on the ground. I went over to her and rolled her over and looked at her. It was Pinkie, and she was unconscious. I picked her up in my arms and looked around again. I began to walk forward slowly. After a long time of walking I reached an openish spot and put her down. I took off my jacket and lay her on it. I left for a moment and gathered rocks and some wood and twigs. I came back and formed a small circle with the rocks. I placed the wood and twigs in it and began hitting two rocks together. Finally I created a spark and ignited a deaf leaf. I sat down and tended the fire until it was fine. I went up to Pinkie and pulled her closer to the fire. She was cold. very cold. But still breathing. I sat there holding her trying to warm her up. Until I dozed off to sleep.

*******************

I woke up in the middle of the night to a sound. I looked up and saw the fire was still burning, but had died down a lot. Pinkie on my lap feeling a lot warmer. I looked around and noticed 5 pairs of yellow eyes looking at me. I slowly put down Pinkie and stood up. I grabbed a large stick from the fire that had coals on the end and gripped it firmly in my hands. Then they emerged from the bush. Five timber wolves looking at their prey. They inched closer and closer. Finally one dove towards me, I swung with all of my might.

THUNK

The stick made contact with it's head and lit his face on fire. A moment later the wolf fell to the ground dead. By the time I looked back up I already saw the next wolf nearly on me. I tried to dodge it but it grabbed the stick with its mouth and tore it out of my hands. It threw it away, it got up and looked at me. One behind me pounced and pinned me to the ground. It looked at me with It's yellow eyes and was about to bite down when they stopped. It got off me and ran into the woods.

'Wait... what?'

Then I heard it. I slowly turned around and became face to face with a manticore. As it roared and sent its claw swinging I dove out of the way. I looked back up at it as it stared me down. I looked to Pinkie and then back at the beast.

'I can't let this thing take her.'

As it charged at me I did the only sane thing left. I charged back. When it was about to strike me down with its stinger I dodged to the right and grabbed it. The manticore flung it back up and I landed on its back. I looked up at the stinger and grabbed it. I felt rage fill me and everything went red. I ripped the tip of it's tail off and jumped off the beast. It stood there for a moment before coming out of its daze and running at me. I took the piece of tail in my hand and began to line up a shot. While my hand drew back multiple thoughts ran through my mind. All bad. I screamed and sent the claw flying. It made impact with the beasts face. Within a moment of it hitting, I ran to it and pulled it out and put one hand on its head. I began stabbing the manticore thrust after thrust. When the red in my vision dissipated I noticed what had happened... I had single handedly killed a manticore... not noticing the glow emitting from my hands, I immediately ran back to the fire to see Pinkie still asleep. I had a feeling nothing was coming back here for a while. I threw a few more logs on the fire and got back under Pinkie to keep her warm. I slowly began to lose sight of the world.

****************

I woke up again, this time in the day. I looked around and noticed everything looked the same. Even the dead manticore. I looked down at Pinkie and smiled. I picked her up carefully in my arms and began to walk. I walked for what felt like hours. Which it probably was. I don't know how I had the strength to carry Pinkie all the way through the forest. But I never seemed to run out. I just kept walking forward. Not stopping. I continued for hours. A slight pain in my left arm, but I just ignored it. I had to get Pinkie out of here. She had been asleep for two days. I had to do whatever it took to make sure she is OK. I stopped when I looked forward to see light. I went into a sprint and shot out of the forest. I looked around to see I was in a large grassy field with ponyville in the distance.

'How did we get all the way over here?'

I pushed the thought from my mind and ran. I only ran. I couldn't think of anything else. I ignored all the stares and I just kept going and going. I got to the hospital and kicked open the door. I shouted for a doctor and he came running and hesitated for a moment when he saw me and Pinkie. Then he took her in his magical grip. I followed along, but was stopped by another nurse.

"Not so fast, I think you need a look at too." She said looking at my tattered clothes.

"No I'm fi-" I was cut off when an intense pain filled my body starting from my left arm.

I looked over and noticed a huge gash with my skin changing color.

'The manticore must have hit me...'

Before I could think anymore another surge of pain flew through my body. I fell to the floor and began to pass out. The only things I could hear was beeping. Loud yelling. And the nurse asking for a De-fib unit. Before I completely blacked out.

If I die before I wake...

Chapter 18: If I die before I wake...

I slowly began to wake to the sound of beeping. I shut my eyes from the pain. So I just sat there. Until I heard crying from beside me. I listened closer. It was Flutter shy.

"C-CJ... You can't be dead... y-you c-can't..."

I slowly opened my eyes and looked to my right. I saw her with her face down on the bed crying. I slowly lifted my right arm and brushed her mane. She looked up instantly.

"Now who ever said I was dead?"

She sat there frozen for a minute. Then leaped at me and planted a large kiss on my lips. A lot of pain stuck me, but I didn't care. I leaned forward and returned the kiss. When we finished she gave me a hug.

"I t-though I was g-going to lose y-you... we were all s-so worried..."

She pulled away from the hug and I began stroking her mane. Smiling.

"Shy, I am alright. How is Pinkie?"

She continued to stare at me. "Pinkie is fine, they let her out a few days ago."

That struck me like a truck. "A... few days ago?"

She nodded "you have been in a coma for two weeks now."

I was in awe.

'Two weeks? TWO WEEKS? Well... I have been dead longer...'

I wiped away the face of worry and replaced it with a smile and continued stroking her mane.

"Don't worry Shy, I will never leave you again. I Pinkie promise..."

She smiled and lay her head down on my chest. I removed the covers for a moment and before Shy noticed I pulled them back on.

"Uh... Shy... where are my pants... and my underwear..." I said bright red.

She gave a small laugh. "They are in the corner. They needed to operate on you so they took them off." She said smiling.

"Could you... get them for me?" I said, watching her giggle. "YYYYour not gonna... huh?" She nodded holding in a laugh.

I sighed and got up from the bed and walked over to my clothes and picked them up. Fully aware of the Laughing Flutter shy behind me. I put on the clothes and turned to her.

"Ya ya... haha... you know I'll get you back for this?"

She stopped laughing and looked at me with a mischievous smile. "Alright..." She said with a hint of seduction in her voice.

'...'

She burst out laughing again. I shook my head.

"That's not funny..."

She looks at me again. "It is PRICELESS."

I looked at her with a mischievous grin of my own. She looked at me and stopped smiling and cocked her head.

"Well... how about I tell everyone about that time you drank and you-"

She looked at me and interrupted with a raspy voice. "You.Wouldn't.DARE!"

I stared at her with the same grin. "Try me."

She scowled and dropped her head in defeat. I made my way over to the door.

"Wait, you can't leave, you are still in bad shape." She said.

"Shy, I'm fine, I can deal with the pain."

I opened the door and walked out with Flutter shy close behind. We walked out of the hospital and I noticed it was getting late. I made my way to my house to get some sleep. (Apparently the body takes a coma as being awake...) On the way we just talked about random things. I always enjoyed having Flutter shy around. It always made me happy. Then I stopped and looked at her.

"Shy?"

She turned to me. "Yes CJ?"

"I just wanted to know... why me? Your probably the most beautiful mare around. But why would you choose to hang out with someone like me?"

She looked at me and smiled. "Because you always do whats best for others. And always want to help wherever and whenever you can. You make me feel safe. And we share the same hobbies. Also to me, you look pretty good." She ended that with a raised eyebrow in a joking manner looking me up and down.

"Haha... alright then."

When we got to my house I nodded goodbye to Flutter shy and she flew home. I went inside and up stairs. I came to my room and lifted up the mattress and pulled out a small box. I opened it and smiled.

"We are going to have a party tomorrow..." I said to no one. And made my way to my DJ room to mix some music.

The big question

Chapter 19: The big question

I slowly awoke and stretched out. I climbed out of bed and walked towards the bathroom. After my shower I put on my white DJ clothes (Black ones were torn up from the forest, Pinkie still has it's jacket) and made my way to ponyville. When I got there I saw Pinkie hopping around. She stopped when she saw me. I litteraly blinked and she was in front of my face.

"Oh hey Pink-GAH!" I stumbled back a few feet.

"Teehee I didn't know you were better already! We should have a party!"

"I had that in mind too... so, how are you feeling Pinkie?"

She looked at me and then pulled me into a hug. "I feel GREAT! Thank you SOOO much for helping me back there! If there is ANYTHING I can do just ask!"

I thought for a second. Then I smiled.

"Actually, I am in need of your great singing."

She smiled even wider and started hopping in place. We walked back to my house and went to the DJ room. After the songs were done, we went back to ponyville. When we got there we said good bye and we would see each other at the party. I went and told everyone else about the party. I told everyone it was for a special occasion. I hadn't told them what but they would find out.

********************

When It began to get very dark out I made my way to the club with Perfect Pitch beside me.

"So, Pitch, how have you been?"

He looked at me with a happy grin on his face.

"It has been so great! Ever since I sang for your song that day, I have been so busy with people hiring me for their own shows! I can't thank you enough man!"

We fist/hoof bumped. We reached the club and went inside. We got to the back room and up the stairs to the DJ area. We began setting up the equipment. When we were done we took a look through the window. I whistled.

"Wow... filled up pretty fast."

"Eeyup." Said pitch in his best Bic Mac impression.

We both shared a laugh before we finished everything. I made my way out of the room with pitch. When we got down to my friends they were all watching us.

"Hey everypony, what's up!"

They all waved and said hi. I looked to Perfect Pitch who was acting nervous in front of... oh...

I pulled him off to the side. And looked him in the eyes.

"You have a crush on Twi? Don't you?" I said with a slight chuckle.

He nodded slightly.

"Well, why not just tell her?"

He looked at me again. "Well... I...I'm nervous..."

I continued to stare at him. "Well, if you never try it, you won't know if she likes you. And just so you know, I've seen her check you out once or twice." I said with a wink.

"R-Really?"

I nodded. "She really likes your singing. She told me herself."

He thought for a moment. "Alright CJ, Thanks for the info..." He said with a small grin.

I walked back over to my friends while Perfect Pitch went to get ready to sing. I walked to Flutter shy.

"Hey Shy, could you come with me to the DJ room? I need to show you something with one of the buttons." She nodded in interest. I could hear Pinkie Pie giggling behind her.

When she walked by me to the room I turned to Pinkie and put a "Hush" face on. I walked with Flutter shy to the DJ room. When we got there I pointed at the DJ table.

"Something seems to be wrong with it, I cant plug anything into there." I pointed at a big hole in the Table, Its power plug.

She walked over and started inspecting it.

"Oh... you have something stuck in the table. Just let me... there got it... wait... what is-"

She was holding a black box, I walked over and kneeled. I opened the box and placed it in her hooves. She let out a light gasp. Inside the box was a braclet type jewelery that was made of gold and encrusted in diamonds. I saved up all of my bits (Not to mention I know a fashion designer) to get this for her.

"Shy, I have had so much fun with you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. What happened a little while ago made me realize how short life can be. And I want to spend every moment I can with you. Flutter Shy..."

I raised up the box that was still open.

"Will you marry me?"

I waited for an answer... but all I got was a ribcracking hug. Then finally she let go and I could see she was crying.

"Yes! Yes I will CJ!"

I heard a bunch of DAAAAAAAW'S from far away. I got up and looked out the window to see all the ponies staring up at us. I had realized that Perfect Pitch turned on the mic.

"You sneaky little bastard!" I said in a joking manner. Which caused everyone to burst out laughing, including Flutter shy.

I walked up to the mic and plugged in my I-Pod, I looked over to Flutter shy and motioned for her to come here. She came up and went to the mic with me.

"Hello everypony! DJ D1sASt3r Here! And I have some new music for you all today! I would like to thank Perfect pitch for his vocals on one and I would love to thank Pinkie Pie as well!" Everyone looked at me like I was crazy for saying that. Then I went back to the mic. "you'll see." I looked at Flutter shy. She walked over to the mic.

"N-Now... without any more waiting... lets get this party STARTED!" She pressed play on the I-Pod. And the music began.

(Play this while you read, at anytime you can change the track, you won't be able to listen to them all unless you decide to read slowly sorry :( just too many good songs)

We walked down to let Perfect Pitch get ready for his singing. We got down to our friends who were all sitting awestruck at us. Then Pinkie tackled me. She looked strait down at me.

"Yay! Your getting married! This calls for a pa-" I covered her mouth.

"Pinkie, can we at least finish this one first?"

"MmmHmm" She mumbled and bounced off.

I turned to my other friends who were all smiling. Me and Flutter shy walked over to them and sat down on the couch they were on. When we did Rarity looked at the bracelet.

"Oh... It looks just perfect darling." Said Rarity to Flutter shy who was now wearing the bracelet.

"It's so... shiny!" Said Rainbow dash.

"Ya'll make ah' cute couple!" Said AJ.

Twilight didn't speak, I could tell she looked lonely. I walked up to her. I bent down and looked her in the eyes.

"What's wrong Twi?" I asked a hint of worry in my tone.

She looked at me and looked at the girls, who were all busy talking to the Historically happy Flutter shy. And looked back to me.

"Well... I guess seeing you being married... I don't know... like... who would ever like a book worm like me..." She said with a sad expression.

I looked at her and smiled, confusing her.

"You know, I have seen you checking out Perfect Pitch." I said, causing her to go bright red.

"O-Oh.. you saw that?"

I stood up. and began walking away. I turned my head. "It's no big deal, besides, he checks you out to." I gave a small wink and walked over to Flutter shy. A small "SQUEE" behind me.

'STILL doesn't get old... EVER!'

I made it to Flutter shy and scratched her mane a bit, which she loves. I sat beside her and she lay down on my lap, where I continued to stroke her mane. I looked at our friends and smiled.

"So, I guess we should actually do some partying now huh?" I said with a raised eyebrow.

They all nodded happily. Especially Pinkie Pie who reappeared at some point. So we all went into the crowd to have some fun. First we tried to dance. Me and Flutter shy trashed the idea. (think about it, Pony and a human.... :/) So we went to the games, like pin the tail on the pony... and... a few that are not really... appropriate to say right now... lets just say, it involved paper with random numbers, spiked punch, and a closet. And other games of the similar variety.

(Stop the music if it is still going if you like, gives an effect of it being unplugged)

When the party was over we all began to leave, I went up and got my I-Pod and made my way back down stairs to Flutter shy, I was walking her home. On the way she couldn't take her eyes off me.

When we finally made it to her house I opened the door for her. We both walked in.

"Quite the night huh?" I asked her.

"Ya, it was great... all of it was perfect." She said looking down at the bracelet.

"Well, I guess I'll be seeing you in the morning, bye Shy." I began to walk towards the door when she spoke.

"W-Well... y-y-you know... you could just... spend the night here?"

And lets just say I did and leave it at that.

Today at the spa....

Chapter 20: Today at the spa....

I slowly began to wake up at the sound of movement. I opened my eyes to see... well... a ceiling. I looked around and realized I was in Flutter shy's room. I got up and rubbed the sleep from my eyes. I felt very stiff and couldn't walk very easily. I shuffled to the wall and got into the bathroom. I took a quick shower and got dressed. I made it down the stairs... slowly.... and caught Flutter shy walking out the door.

"Hey Shy, where ya going?"

She looked over and gave a huge smile. "I am off to the spa with Rarity."

After she finished speaking I nodded and walked to the couch. When I got there I sat down and heard a "pop" It hurt bad, but felt great as well.

"Oh... my... are you alright?"

I turned to her while rubbing my back.

"Ya I'm OK, really stiff though..." I heard her give a small giggle.

"... Not what I meant..."

She rolled her eyes and walked over to me.

"Well, would you like to go to the spa? You know what a spa is right?"

I thought for a moment. "I do know what it is, never been to one. But I don't have to go, I can't ruin your alone time with friends."

She ignored my last comment and helped me up slowly.

"Come on, it's alright, I am sure Rarity won't mind."

'Whatever then, she won't take no for an answer anyway'

I shrugged and made my way to the door with her. We made it outside and began to walk to ponyville. When we finally arrived I just followed Flutter shy. On the way we ran into Rarity.

"Fluttershy dear! Are you ready for out day at the spa?" She said in a happy tone.

"Oh yes, and I brought CJ along too. He has some... Back problems..." She said, giggling a bit.

"Oh that's alright deary, I am more than happy to have another come along with us."

We continued walking along having small conversations about random things, untill we finally made it to a large... colorful building. We walked into the building and sat down at a couch. Rarity walked over to the counter where a pink earth pony sat.

"Hello Aloe, we are here for our reservation, and if it is alright, we need to change it from two ponies to three."

The pink pony looked down at a clipboard and then back up and smiled.

"Yes miss Rarity, we can serve you all now."

We all stood up and went to a locker room. When we got there I saw Fluttershy and Rarity both grab towels. At that moment my eyes went wide.

"Oh... well then.... I... uh..." I stammered out.

Rarity looked over to me in confusion. "CJ, are you going to take off your clothes?"

"Uh... I guess?"

Is strip down to my boxers and look at them as I reach for a towel.

"CJ, you have to remove those too." Said Rarity.

'...'

"..."

"Well?"

I looked between her and Fluttershy. "Do I have to?"

"Of course dear, how else would you go in the spa? You are only allowed towels."

'......... God dammit'

I sighed and walked over to a towel. I put it on then slipped off the boxers. I followed Rarity and Fluttershy to a wooden door. We walked in and I looked around. I was in a large wooden room that was slightly foggy with a bench like board on the wall all around it. And in the center was a bucket of water beside a bunch of red hot coals. We sat down and Rarity threw some water on the coals causing a lot of fog to fill the room. Rarity and Fluttershy sat it a corner while I sat in the corner next to them. After a few minutes of silence I looked over to see them staring at me then quickly turn away.

"...Uh... so how long do we stay in here?"

Rarity looked over and smiled. "Oh, about an hour why?"

"Because this isn't half bad."

I sat there for a while before I decided to look down and had one word cross my mind.

'Wow'

Apparently working at the post lifting boxes like that had given me quite the workout. I had a lot of muscles. But not that many that makes it look gross. I had just the right amount. And all the sweat made my body shine. I looked up a bit and saw them staring at my chest.

'Hehe... this will be fun'

I start to flex a bit and see them look closer. I continue to do this until I flex to my full amount. They look closely, wide eyed and just stare. So I take the chance.

"Enjoying the view?"

They both snap their attention to something else, anything else. Rarity was first to speak.

"Oh... I was just... uh... well..."

I gave a small laugh at how hard she was blushing. "It's fine Rarity, I didn't even know how buff I was until now."

She smiled weakly and went to say something before we heard a buzzer go off. Rarity got up and quickly walked over to the door.

"Ohlooktimesupletsgo." She rambled out.

I looked over to Fluttershy who just shrugged and walked out. I stood up holding the towel and walked out as well. I followed the two of them until we got to a place with a large in ground pool like thing.

"Wazzat?" I asked pointing att the large hole.

Rarity looked over. "That's the bathtub dear."

I stared at her. "Bathtub? As in... community bathtub?"

She nodded and I just continued to stare at her.

"Uh... I'll sit this one out."

She looked at me in confusion. "Why dear? Afraid to get wet?"

"No, It's just..." I point to the towel.

She thinks for a moment before looking back with a "Oh ya..." face.

"Well, come on CJ it's not like we will look or anything."

I stare blankly at her. "Heheh.... no...."

She just rolled her eyes and walked to the tub.

"Oh don't be like that, come join us." She said ushering me towards the water.

"No... hell no..."

She climbs in with Fluttershy and turns to me.

"Get in before I count to Five."

I just looked at her with a "Come at me bro!" Face. Bad idea...

"One"

"No..."

"Two"

"Rarity I said..."

"Three"

"Rarity I made up my..."

"Four"

"..."

"Four and a half..."

"Rarity I said no, I don't wa..."

"Five"

Before I could say anything I feel a weird sensation around me...

'She wouldn't dare...'

I looked around and saw I was floating around in the air, hovering towards the water. Still with my towel, thank god. I began hovering above it.

"Rarity... I swear.. If you do it I'm gunna have to..."

SPLASH

I fell into the water. When I resurfaced I looked around and saw Rarity and Fluttershy staring at...

'SHIT'

I reached over and grabbed my floating towel and put it under the water and covered myself. I looked back up at a giggling Fluttershy and a blushing Rarity.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Fluttershy finished laughing and broke the silence between me and Rarity.

"Well, that was funny, but a bit smaller than I remember... I mean... uh..."

Rarity raised an eyebrow but shrugged. I made my way to the edge and sat down, half submerging myself in the water that I could feel the temperature rising in.

"Small? I am considered large by humans!"

Rarity looks at me... funny...

"Really? Well that's sad..."

Eye twitch

Fluttershy let out a light cough getting out attentions back. We sat back and relaxed. I spent a while getting into a comfortable position in a tub made for a pony. I finally perfect it and begin to relax. I look over at Rarity and find her staring at me... again... Fluttershy doesn't seem to notice. I roll my eyes and motion for her to come over. She looks around and begins to swim over too me. She sits beside me and I whisper in her ear.

"I saw you staring at me... whats so interesting?"

She blushes a bit and whispers back. "Well... I just haven't seem muscles like that... and... I don't know... can I maybe... touch them?"

I raise an eyebrow and look at her. "Sure I guess?"

She begins to rub my chest and arm muscles, she begins to then look at my stomach... she gets lower and lower until...

'DA FUQ?!'

Before I could react I feel my towel get removed. I open my eyes and see Rarity swimming to the over side with a towel between her teeth while shouting.

"I got it Fluttershy I got it!"

Fluttershy opened her eyes and looked at Rarity and began laughing. I looked around processing what just happened. Then my brain turns on.

"HEY! GIVE THAT BACK!"

I begin to swim towards them before I realize I am now naked. I turn around so my back is facing them.

"Give me back the towel..."

Rarity speaks up. "Your going to have to take it."

'For the love of...'

I spin around and run for the towel. When I get to it I reach for it. Only to have it swiped away. I continue my efforts until I see Fluttershy running around the tub with it. I get out not caring anymore and run after her. I tackle her and land on top of her. She looks up at me with surprised eyes. I take the towel and realize what I must look like... I picture it In my head...

"Oh... my... it gets....bigger?"

'No way... No.Way.'

I look over and see Rarity looking at me with a bright red face. I get up and wrap the towel around my waist. Not very easy...

"It... gets... wow..."

We sit there for a while, to embarrassed to talk. When a blue pony comes in and looks at us all.

"Your time is... Oh, you are already all out. Well, off to the showers then get ready for your massage."

I bolt towards the shower and close the curtains. I turn on the shower. Not touching the hot water nozzle.

'I cant believe that really happened...'

After the cold shower I get out with my towel on my waist and walk with the others. We get to three tables. Rarity and Fluttershy hop on two of them and I walk towards the third. When I lay down I see two male ponies walk out and close the curtains around Fluttershy and Rarity. Two female ponies walk towards me and do the same.

"Hello, I am Aloe." Says the pink one.

"And I am lotus." Says the blue one.

"Uh... why am I being massaged by two?"

They look at one another and back to me.

Aloe speaks up. "Well, you are a lot bigger than ponies. So this makes it easier."

I Shrugged my shoulders and relaxed facing down. I felt them both place their hooves on me and begin. Lotus began massaging my upper and middle back. Aloe massaged my lower back and legs. This continued for a while until they both stopped.

"Turn over please." Said Aloe.

"Do I have to?"

"But of coarse." Said Lotus.

I rolled my eyes and flipped over. They continued their massage then stopped. Aloe leaned to my ear.

"Would you like the... 'Special treatment' as well?"

I thought for a moment on what that it. "Uh... OK I guess?"

She smiled and nodded to Lotus. They began massaging my upper legs and lower stomach. They began sliding off my towel so softly I didn't notice. Then I felt them touch my...

"Whoa!" I said sitting up and covering myself.

"What are you doing?"

They looked at each other and back to me.

"Just sit back and relax sir, we are almost done." Said Aloe.

"But... you just..."

"Lay back, we are nearly finished." Lotus chipped in.

They pushed me down and began their massage on me again...not holding back.

"OK, I am done, I had fun, but I need to leave."

Aloe looked up. "Oh but you are not done yet. Just relax."

'...What Is going on? I thought they said a special e... oh... I see...'

"And plus, I don't like being touched like this."

Aloe looked back up. "Sure doesn't seem like that." She said looking at my growing... oh dear...

Aloe continued her work... I began thinking.

'Well, It feels great, maybe I can... no, what would Fluttershy think?'

"I don't think my friends would like this, so I want to leave."

I began standing up only to be pushed down again my lotus. "But it was your friends who suggested this." Chimed Lotus.

'...'

I'll let your imagination think of how it turned out. Your choice!

********************************

I walked out of the spa fully clothed with Fluttershy and Rarity.

"See CJ? The spa is so luxurious!" Said Rarity.

"Ya... its... something..." I said, getting the two to giggle to each other.

I roll my eyes and continue to walk. Then I look at Rarity with an evil smile.

"You know Rarity... I never expected you would want to see me naked so badly." I said getting her to go wide eyes and turn deep red.

"W-Well... I-I... uh... u-um..."

I began to laugh as I made my way to my house alone.

'Note to self, Fuck the spa.'

Suffering.... is what?

Chapter 21: Suffering... is what?

I slowly began to wake up to a bright light in my face. I opened my eyes and looked around. I was in my room with light shining through my window directly to my face. I got up and gave a stretch. After a few pleasuring pop noises, I got up and took a quick shower before getting dressed and going to work.

*****************

After getting back from work I opened my house door. As I did a strange feeling crept up my spine. I started looking around. After a few minutes of nothing I ignore it and go inside. I make myself dinner and leave the house. I make my way towards ponyville, the whole way there feeling like I was being watched. I shrugged off the feeling and quickened my pace. I soon began going at a full sprint. I got into ponyville and noticed something.

Silence.

I started wandering around looking for a single pony. But had no luck.

"Hello? Anypony there?!" I shouted hoping for an answer.

'What the hell is going on'

I continue to search until I hear a scream. I start running towards the noise when I come to a stop at what I see. I see six ponies, but not just any ponies. My six friends, laying on the ground... dead. As ponies run around randomly screaming, buildings on fire. I notice the large figure behind them. I try to register the details but only make out that he is shaped like a large horse, and is holding a large blade. The world begins to fade to white. Just before everything disappears, It speaks in a deep, rasp voice.

"Suffering... is magic..."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

I wake up screaming. I look around and realize I am at my house an hour after I got home from work. I was laying on the ground. The cold chill and watching feeling gone. I shake my head to try and focus.

'What in the hell was that... why was that so... familiar?'

I decide it would be best to ignore the dream for now. I make my way to ponyville, hopefully awake this time, to find something to do. On the way trying my best not to think about the dream.

"CJ!" Yells Rainbow dash.

"...GAH!" I jump away for a moment in shock.

"FINALLY! You looked like you were dazed, I was about ready to tackle you to get you attention."

I shake my head and look back at her. "Uh, was there something you needed?"

"No, I saw you and came to say hi, but you looked worried about something, whats wrong?" She says with a hint of worry in her tone.

"N-Nothing... I'll tell you later."

She shrugs and waves goodbye before bolting off. I continue to walk towards ponyville until I hear... a scream...

'... no way...'

I sprint for the screaming and make my way to carousal boutique, I kick open the door and run in.

"RARITY? WHAT'S WRONG!?" I shout looking around.

Rarity is on the couch sobbing. So I run up to her and kneel down. "Rarity! What happened!"

She looks at me with huge sad eyes. "Oh CJ It's horrible, simply dreadful!"

"What is it?"

She continues to stare at me with sad eyes. "I lost my diamond encrusted purple ribbon! Again! Of all the things that could happen, this is the.Worst.Possible.THING!"

She drops back onto the couch and continues to cry.

'Can't tell if serious...'

"I have searched HIGH! And I have searched low... it is neither HIGH nor low..."

'Wow... she is serious....'

I sigh and walk over to the door. I step on something and look down.

"Rarity..."

She looks at my feet and lets out a squeal of delight. "Oh isn't it just the LAST place you look?!"

I roll my eyes. "Yup, unless you want to look for it after you find it..." I mumble as I leave.

I leave the shop and look around. I take in a deep breath and let out a drawn out sigh.

'That was very anti-climactic'

I start walking around looking for something to do. And what do I hear? Screaming.

'For fuck sakes Rarity, did you lose a pencil this time or....'

My train of thought was cut off when I noticed it was multiple screams. I started racing towards the sound. I saw three young fillies running towards ponyville with a rather large white wolf behind them. It stood to about my belly button. I saw it lunge for a kill shot at Applebloom. Without thinking I ran and dove between them.

'Strange, I thought it would hurt...'

I landed on the ground and saw the wolf walk towards me with bloody jaws. I saw the fillies got away. The wolf loomed over me and starred down into my face. Just before It made a killing blow, I saw it hesitate and get off me.

Don't think I'm going to let you die now... Spoke a familiar voice in my head.

We haven't even met yet...

The wolf gave a look of annoyance and turned towards the closest exit of ponyville and ran. A few seconds later I heard hoof steps coming towards me. I felt a aura pick me up and carry me away.

'Why can't I move... everything... Is so... cold...'

Just before everything went black, I could hear the soft echoed sound of a familiar mares voice as she cries...

>>>Perspective change: Unknown being<<<

"Sir... why did you order the wolf to stop... we could have killed him then." Said one of my guards.

I let out a deep chuckle. "Because... I plan on taking care of him myself, besides, what fun would it be if I didn't make him suffer?"

The guard let a small bow. "Yes sir."

I nodded. "Good, now put the plan into action."

"Immediately sir."

As the guard left the room I let out a quiet laugh.

'Sorry to crash your wedding plans... oh wait... no I'm not...' I thought as an evil smile crept over my face.

'This... will be truly entertaining...'

Just a scratch

Chapter 22: Just a scratch

Cold.... That's all I felt. All I felt for what seemed like hours. Finally I began to hear something.

Beep.... beep..... beep..... beep.....

I opened my eyes and started blinking a few times until my vision finally became clear. I looked around and saw I was in the hospital and my chest has been wrapped up. I start to move my arm but feel pain in my chest when I try. So I just sit there. I take in my surroundings. That's when I notice the figures around me. Laying on chairs and the ground were my friends Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow, and Pinkie, with her mane deflated. On the bed with me cuddled up to my shoulder was Fluttershy.

'How the hell did I miss that?'

I Look out the window near me and see it is still dark out.

'How long was I out? And what happened?'

I noticed Fluttershy starting to stir. So I acted like I was asleep. I peeked through my eyelids and saw her looking at me.

"I miss you CJ... The Doctors say you will never wake up... But I cant believe that... I cant..." She whispers.

She wraps her arms around my neck and gives me a hug. "Y-You promised you would never leave.... you promised..."

Before she could let got I lifted my arms slowly, ignoring the pain, and wrapped them around her. Causing her to freeze in shock.

"Do I look like a liar?"

She lets out a loud gasp and presses her lips against mine. After a few moments of shock I return the kiss. We sit there kissing for what feels like hours. When she finally pulls away I look into her bloodshot eyes. She looks like she has been crying all night.

"C-CJ... I knew you would never leave." She said with a huge, tearful smile.

The rest of my friends began to stir and woke up. When they noticed me they all ran to me hugging me at the same time. It hurt a bit, but was totally worth it. When they all let go everything fell quiet. So I spoke up.

"So, Are the three girls OK?" After I finished all of the girls gasped.

Twilight walked forward and looked me in the eyes. "You were just nearly killed, and yet you still worry about others over yourself?"

I nod "Yes... and?"

She shakes her head. "Nothing..."

I shrug and look back to the rest of them. "So? Are they OK?"

"They are fine..." Said Applejack.

"That's good, now excuse me, I need to get home." I say as I try to get up.

Fluttershy pushes me back onto the bed. "No, You are staying here, you are not fit to be walking around."

I stare at her blankly. "Fluttershy... just let me get up."

"No..."

"Fluttershy...."

"No..."

"Fluttershy, Let me up... now..." I said with a small bit of anger in my tone.

"Not until you are better...."

"Let...me....up....now!" I said, my voice a bit deeper than normal.

They were all taken aback by this. When I realized my sudden burst of anger I fell back onto the bed.

'Where the hell did that come from...'

I look back to Fluttershy who is about to cry. "Fluttershy... I'm sorry... I don't know why I yelled..."

She took in a deep breath and sighed. "I-It's fine..."

She got off the bed and walked out of the room. I turned to the rest of my friends who were still shocked at the outburst.

"I'm sorry... I don't know what happened... you know I would never yell at you guys..."

They nodded their heads and said goodbye as they left the room. I lay back further in my bed and started thinking to myself.

'What the hell was that for... Why was I so angry... why did it feel so... good?' I shuddered a bit before I closed my eyes.

'Maybe some sleep will help...'

***********************

Woke up the next morning with a terrible headache. I opened my eyes and looked to the side. I saw a glass of water and reached for it. Just out of reach. I imagined the glass coming to me. It began to glow bright yellow and float into my hand.

'Now that is fucking cool'

I take a drink of the water and look forward. Then I notice what I SHOULD have seen when I woke up. Celestia sitting there, Wide eyed at what she just saw. What can I say, I can be very selective at what I see and hear sometimes.

"C-CJ... Did you just use... magic?" She said still awed.

"Ya... long story short... I think the shadow took some of yours and gave it to me..."

She thought for a moment before looking back to me.

"Well, I came here to check up on you, I am happy to say you are going to make a full recovery... but..." She trails off.

"...Yes?"

She snaps her attention back to me. "Oh... uh... I wanted to know... if... OH! Ya! If I could check you... to see how much magic you got... ya... check you..."

I could tell that wasn't why but whatever, I wouldn't mind knowing either.

"Bah what the hell go ahead."

She nods and walks to me, she lowers her horn to my head and starts funneling her magic into my head. She twitches a bit and speaks.

"W-What is that... It looks like..."

Before she could finish a familiar voice sounded in my head.

SPOILERS! She is going to spoil everything! Can't have that... can we?

I felt a huge shock and everything turn white for a moment. When the flash subsided I noticed I was looking down... at myself? And I had a shocked look on my face.... the one I was looking at.

"Uh... hi me?" I said in a motherly voice.

'No mother fucking way'

"Uh... hi.... me???" Said a more male voice... my voice...

At that moment I noticed what happened. I stared down at myself for a moment as it stared back at me.

"TIA!?"
"CJ?!" We said at the same time.

'....................Fuck....................'

Hey guys! I'M A PONY!

Chapter 23: Hey guys! I'M A PONY!

Me and Celestia just continued to stare. What else would we do? We were to shocked to speak. We sat there for hours... I think. Until I thought something to myself.

'Wait... I'm on four legs...'

At that moment I collapsed to the ground with a loud "THUD"

"...ow..." I mumbled from the floor.

"Me! I mean... CJ... are you OK?" She said with a hint of worry in her tone...

"Ya... I'm fine... just kind of hard to stand..."

After a bit of struggling I make my way onto my... hooves... I look to Celestia and notice she is still laying on the bed. But inspecting my body. Like the legs, arms, fingers etc...

"What spell did you cast anyway?" I said with a bit of annoyance in my voice.

She looks at me and starts thinking. "I... I don't remember... I just remember a flash then this..."

I rolled my eyes, "Whatever, come on, we need to find a way to fix this."

She attempted to stand and just fell flat on her face. She tried getting back up and fell again.

"Tia, you walk on two legs now, two, not four. Just act like... you are trying to balance on your hind legs. Trust me, humans center of balance will make it easy for you."

She tries again, and with some weird flailing of arms she balances her self out. She starts walking around to get used to them, as do I. After maybe a half hour of practicing walking we both sit down.

"These things are so... useful..." She said as she wiggled her fingers.

"You can do so much with them..." She said.

'...'

"Ya... fingers are awesome, now... what do we do?"

She takes her focus of the fingers and starts to think, scratching her fingers on her chin...

'I think she enjoys this too much...'

"Hmm... well, we could ask Twilight?" She suggests.

"What about your sister Luna?"

She gives me a deadpan look. "Do you honestly think she will take this seriously? She would find it too funny to help, besides, she is over in Manehattan at the moment on royal duty."

"Ya... I guess you are right... well, lets get going." We both stand up... awkwardly... and make our way to the door. Before I tried anything she reached forward and pushed it with her fingers, with a large smile on her face.

"Well, can't we stay like this for a..." She started.

"No..."

"But I..."

"No..."

"Fine..." She said with a hint of defeat her her tone.

We opened the door and walked out of the room, as we walked down the hallway all the ponies started bowing at me.

"Thank you my littl... I mean..." Started Celestia... remembering what body she was in.

All the ponies started giving weird looks at her, she turned to me for help.

"Oh... It's alright, CJ here was just speaking for me... I have a terribly sore throat." All the ponies seemed happy about the answer and went on with their business.

"Your welcome..." I said with a big dumb smile.

"Haha... funny..." She snapped back.

We left the hospital and walked through ponyville, receiving more bows. We made it to the library and walked up to the door. We were about to knock when I hesitated. I got an evil grin on my face. Celestia noticed this and raised an eyebrow.

"Whats so funny?" She said curiously.

"Oh... nothing..."

I knocked on the door. A few moments later Spike answered.

"What no- Princess!" He dropped down and gave a bow. I nodded and he turned and walked in.

I followed him in and found Twilight already bowing. I tapped her on the shoulder and she looked up.

"Hello Twilight, I came here to ask you something."

"Yes princess?"

At this point Celestia knew something was up.

"CJ here wanted to tell you something, but is making up strange things to try and get around the idea... the truth is... he likes you... a lot."

'BAHAHAHAHAHA... I'm so dead for this... but still.... worth it... totally... worth it....'

Twilight's eyes went wide.

"R-Really?" She stuttered out.

"Yes."

We both looked to Celestia who was wide eyed and slack jawed. I was trying to hold in a laugh, surprisingly It seemed easier to do so in this body...

"..." Twilight said nothing.

"Twilight?" I said.

"..."

*Whistles* "Heeelllllooooo? Equestria to Twilight, come in Twilight..."

"C-C-CJ... l-likes me?" She said in awe.

"Yu... wait... what?"

Twilight shot over to Celestia and gave her a huge hug. I saw her give me a stare that could possibly kill, but I was laughing so hard inside I didn't really care. Then... It happened.

Twilight kissed her...

'1: HOLY SHIT!
2: Worth it.
3: ...HOLY SHIT!
4: Never expected that Twilight had a thing for me...
5: .....HOLY FUCKING SHIT!'
6: I wonder what Tia thinks of the kiss...
7: BAHAHAHAHA!'

When Twilight finished the kiss she continued to hug Celestia. When Celestia snapped back into reality, she got out of Twilight's grip and pointed at me.

"Why would you do that! That's not funny!" She yelled.

She turned to Twilight. "Twilight, CJ is lying, we switched bodies and now he just got you to kiss me!"

Twilight thought for a moment and turned to me. "Wow princess, you weren't kidding, he is making a lot of stuff up..."

At that moment I couldn't hold it. I dropped to the floor and just burst out laughing.

"Y-You... BAHAHAH.. a-and... Pfft-HAHAHAHA... and t-then... BAHAHAHA!"

I continued to roll around until I finally calmed down. I stood back up and saw two faces looking at me. One looking shocked and confused, the other looking victorious. I turned to Twilight and took a deep breath completely calming me.

"Twi... It's me, CJ, we did switch bodies."

At that moment Twilight went pure red.

"Hehe.... I didn't know ya'll had a thing for me?" I said with a chuckle.

Twilight turned even deeper red... if that is possible... and looked back at me.

"O-Oh... w-well... I... uh... I-I... was j-just... uh..." She stuttered out.

"Never mind Twilight, I know I am handsome and all... but wait until I get my body back, seeing you kiss the princess was... awkward..."

What did she do? She turned to Celestia and... went even DEEPER red.

"P-Princess!?" She said to Celestia.

Celestia just nodded. And twilight looked ready to pass out. I held her up and straitened her out. When she finally calmed down we all sat down. But right away Celestia stood back up. I turned to her.

"Problem?" I said.

She looked at me with an embarrassed smile.

"I have to... uh... use the bathroom..."

'...O-Oh... my....'

A new member of the family?

Chapter 24: A new member of the family?

REMEMBER! Celestia and CJ's minds are still switched!

I sat there shocked at hearing that. I didn't know how to respond... my brain was even in a state of error. After what felt like hours, but I knew wasn't if Celestia had to use the bathroom, I snapped back to reality.

"CJ... I'm not kidding... I really have to go!" Shouted Celestia.

"Fine, follow me to the bathroom." We walked out of the room towards the bathroom, leaving a snickering Twilight behind us.

I couldn't let her have the last laugh... "Oh... and Twi. Next time wait for at least a first date." I said with a small laugh.

Her face went deep red as she looked away. I smiled triumphant and walked on towards the bathroom.

'I really don't want to do this... but I don't want my clothes covered in piss...'

We got to the door and Celestia reached out for it.

"OK, when we get in there, I will walk you through all the-" I was cut off by a... dark.... light... which engulfed me. When It subsided I found myself in the Canterlot Castle. Next to...

"Luna!" I yelled dropping for a bow, but stopping myself remembering what I look like.

"Hey sis!" She yelled trotting over and wrapping me in a hug.

"I missed you! I was gone for so long... but I came back from Manehatten early because of tomorrow. I brought us both here the day before like you said."

I raised an eyebrow and looked at her confused. "Day before what?"

She cocks her head a bit and also raises an eyebrow. "Uh... the day before we hit estrus? Don't you remember?"

'Estrus? What the hell is... oh fuck...'

"Oh, you mean... g-go int-to heat?" I say a bit shakily.

She nods her head softly.

'My thoughts' nuff said.

"Uh... Luna... I need to tell you something... you need to promise not to get mad..."

She nodded again.

I took a deep breath and began. "I am not Celestia... I'm CJ... I was at the hospital when she tried a spell on me that went wrong and switched our bodies but we don't know how to switch back and we need your help or we are completely screwed please don't kill me!" I yelled out in a single breath.

I looked at her to try and find a reaction. Nothing. I continued to stare until she fell on the floor and burst out laughing.

'Of fucking course'

When she finally calms down she takes in a deep breath and turns to me.

"That is the funniest thing I have ever heard! What does it feel like CJ?"

"Well... being a pony is kinda cool... but I still wanna stay human because-"

"Nononono... I meant, being a female."

My face went deep crimson. "Shut up..."

She let out a small laugh and motioned for me to come over to her. I did and the moment I reached her we appeared in the library. Luna was already over to Celestia asking questions and almost constantly laughing. Twilight was STILL red. And Celestia was giving me a dirty look.

"What?" I said towards Celestia. "Ask her about tomorrow and you will know my reasons for telling her."

She raised and eyebrow and asked Luna, who leaned in and whispered into her ear. When she was finished Celestia went pure red and looked to me with eyes that say 'Please don't tell anyone!' I nodded and she mouthed the words 'I owe you one' Luna walked over in the middle of me and Celestia.

"One moment..." She stated as her horn began to glow.

A few seconds later I opened my eyes I didn't know were closed and found myself staring at Luna with Celestia behind her... In her own body!

'That must mean...' I look down and see my hands.

"YEEES!" I yell at the top of my lungs.

A few seconds later I feel pressure between my legs.

'Oh ya... she never went... thank god for how long men can hold it!' With that I run off to the bathroom.

******************

__--IMPORTANT--__ Celestia and CJ are now in their own bodies

I was on my way home (It was about mid-day) when I decided to stop by Fluttershy's. On my way a single though was going through my mind.

'Well... I hope Luna and Tia can control themselves for the next few days... if not... at least avoid Ponyville.'

I made it to Fluttershy's cottage and went up to the door. I was about to knock when I heard something talking on the inside. Against my better judgement I listened closely. It was Fluttershy, talking to what I assume is an animal, probably angel.

"Oh... Angel... I don't know how to tell him..." Said Fluttershy from inside the cottage.

'So it is Angel... tell who what?'

"I have no idea how CJ with react to it... maybe I shouldn't tell him..."

'OK... me then... and tell me WHAT?'

"Your right Angel... CJ is a nice... human... and will always support me...next time I see him... I'll tell him about it."

Taking that as a perfect time to show myself, I knocked on the door. A few moments later Fluttershy answered and let out a small "Eeep!"

"O-Oh... CJ... it's you..."

"The one and only, I thought I could stop by and say hi, and see if you needed anything?"

She looks at me and goes a bit red. "That's very nice... but I'm afraid I don't need help with anything right now..."

I nodded and turned around. "Bye Fluttershy."

As I walk away I heard a thumping noise, I look on the corner of my eye to see Angel hitting his foot against Fluttershy's hoof. She nods to him and turns to me.

"Wait! CJ!" She says in a whisper-yell fashion.

I turn to her and smile. "Yes?"

"C-Could... you come in? I need to talk to you about something..."

I nodded and waked back to the cottage. I walked in passing a happy looking Angel and a nervous Fluttershy. I sit on the couch and she gets beside me and cuddles up to me.

"Listen... CJ... I wanted to tell you something..."

"Yes?"

"Well... ever since I was little... I wanted a... child... of my own..."

'O-Oh... my...'

"A-And.... I know that the... t-two of us can't have offspring..."

I didn't know how to react with all of this... so I just nodded.

"So... I was wondering... if you would want to..."

After that last sentence my brain went into overdrive.

'ENGAGE HAPPY MODE: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!'

Tis the best day ever

Chapter 25: Tis the best day ever

You sit there shocked, unable to say or do anything. Fluttershy begins to tear up and look at her hooves.

"I knew you hated the idea... I'm sorry I as-"

I silenced her by pulling her into a giant bear hug. She let out a small surprised squeal but calmed down and hugged back. I pushed her off and looked her in the eyes, with the biggest, and most utterly stupid smile on my face.

"Are you KIDDING? I would LOVE to adopt a child! I always wanted to be a dad! Of course I will do this with you Shy!"

She let out a loud "Squee" and continued to hug me. After a few minutes of hugging we both stood up and made our way to the door. We got outside and began towards ponyville. On the way thinking about how to go about the situation when three fillies run up to us.

"Hi girls, what are you all doing today?" Asks Fluttershy.

The three fillies all look at each other and yell in unison. "CRUSADING!"

After the ringing in my ear finishes I look at them running off and start playing at a tree. A thought enters my mind, I bend down to Fluttershy and whisper in her ear. She lets out a small gasp and smiled widely while nodding. We make our way over to the three fillies. when we get there they stop and look at us, me specifically.

"Hi girls, mind if we speak to Scootaloo for a moment?" I say getting Scootaloo's attention.

They all nod and go back to playing. Scootaloo walks up and I bend down to her.

"Hey scoots, if you could have ANYTHING you wanted right now, nothing held back, what would it be?"

I have expected her to say her cutie mark... NOPE!

She shuffled her hooves a bit before answering. "Well... I just want... well.... parents..."

I smiled and shook my head. "Scoots, are you 100% sure?"

She nodded.

"Are you sure your sure?"

She nodded again a bit irritated.

"Are you sure your sure yo-" I was interupted when Fluttershy stuck a hoof in my mouth.

I nodded to her and look back at Scootaloo.

'I don't know why I have the sudden urge to mess with ponies lately... oh well'

"Well, what if I said I could grant you that wish?"

Her eyes widened and she stood there in shock. I let out a small laugh and continued.

"Scoots, would you like us to adopt you for our own? And you may look up to us as parents?"

Scootaloo stood there frozen for a while before I got an idea in my head.

"Well... I guess if you don't want-"

I was cut off when Scootaloo smashed into my chest and tackled me to the ground. After the daze stopped and I regained my hearing, I noticed Scootaloo hugging my chest crying. I frowned and began to stroke her mane.

"Scoots, are you OK?" I ask in worry.

She looks up and I see the smile on her teary face.

"Yes! Yes I'm OK! I have parents! I HAVE PARENTS.... ohmygosh...."

---___COVER YO EARS AND HIDE UNDER A TABLE! MASSIVE EAR RAPE NUKE INBOUND!---___

"I HAVE PARENTS!!!!!!!"

'Dear fucking god! My precious ears!'

Then I realize I usually rape my ears with the I-pod and now I suddenly care, I shrug at myself and look back to Scootaloo. She is crying happily soaking my shirt and chest. I stood up and held her to my chest as I did. I hugged her for all its worth as I see Fluttershy come up to me with a teary smile too. She joins in the hug. After what felt like hours of happiness we hear a synchronized "Awwwwww!" We all open our eyes to see Sweetie belle and Applebloom both watching me Fluttershy and Scootaloo. At that point Scootaloo jumps out of my arms and bounces towards the two fillies.

"I have parents! I have parents!" Was all she kept shouting.

"We know! We know!" The other two said happily while hugging Scootaloo.

I leaned towards Fluttershy and whispered in her ear.

"Shy... I swear... If anymore D'AAAAAAAAAW moments happen my heart WILL explode." She giggled a bit while rolling her eyes.

Scootaloo bounced towards us and jumped back into my arms. "What should we do first daddy!"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM

A day to remember

Chapter 26: A day to remember

"CJ, are you alright?" Fluttershy asked with a hint of worry.

"Yup... just making sure my heart still works..."

This caused both Fluttershy and Scootaloo to giggle...

"I'm serious..." I said under my breath.

After making sure my heart was still beating I looked down to Scootaloo who had her face buried in my chest yelling things like,

"Oh my gosh! I have parents!"

"My daddy is DJ D1sASt3R!"

"My mommy is Fluttershy!"

"OhmygoshohmygoshOHMYGOSH"

'Holy jumping Jebus...'

I pulled her from my chest and set her down. I bent down to eye level and began stroking her mane.

"Don't get too carried away now... so... how about we go get us some ice cream to celebrate?"

After I finished that she began jumping in place. The last few minutes must have been the most excited I have ever seen anyone. Ever. Of all time.

'Seems like Scoots has more energy than Pinkie... "Shudders" Naw, that's impossible'

We all made it through Ponyville, Scootaloo walking between us. We made it to an Ice cream store and went inside. A few minutes later we all came out with an ice cream cone in our hands/hooves. Don't ask me how they hold it... let alone scoop it... just don't....

I got chocolate swirl, Fluttershy just got plain strawberry, and Scootaloo got the Rainboom supreme. It was basically an ice cream cone with three scoops of ice cream, each of them a different flavor and color and each had different colored candies in it. As we walked and ate ice cream we went and sat down against the wall of sugarcube corner. We sat there and talked. Just talked. After we finished our ice cream a thought came to mind.

"Hey scoots, what do you think about learning to fly?"

She looked at me in complete surprise and burst... again.

"I would LOVE IT! I always wanted to fly! But nopony ever taught me!"

I looked over to Fluttershy who smiled and nodded.

"Well, maybe Fluttershy here will teach you. If you ask nicely."

Scootaloo turned to Fluttershy and put on some puppy dog eyes that rivaled even Fluttershy's.

"Pleasepleasepleaseplease!"

Fluttershy slowly nodded. "Yes."

Scootaloo jumped and cheered. I could tell she was having the best day of her life. We began making our way back to where we had met her with her friends. They were still there. We told her to go and play for a few minutes because we needed to talk to each other. She smiled and went to play with her friends. When she was out of hearing range I turned to Fluttershy.

"So Shy, for now, who do you think she should stay with? I mean for like to sleep. Not to stay only there." She nodded and began to think.

"Your house." She said without a doubt.

"My house? Why don't you want her in yours?"

She looked at me and sighed. "I do, but I would be so busy with the animals, and my house is already small and crowded, you have more room in yours."

I thought for a moment and smiled back, "I guess your right, remember, she is only there to stay there to sleep and stuff, you have constant access to her for any reason, she is in BOTH of our care."

I call for Scootaloo to come back. When she made it to us I spoke up.

"Scoots, we have decided that you will be living with me until we figure out new plans on the living arrangements. Speaking of which It is getting dark so lets start to make our way home."

The moment I said "Home." her eyes went wide.

'Oh ya, she never really had a home...'

Scootaloo said bye to the girls and we all made our way to my home. When we got there it was around 11:30 pm. I walked up to the door and slid in the key. As I opened the door I turned to Scootaloo.

"Welcome home." And I pushed open the door.

Once I did I saw a blur pass me and Scootaloo was already examining the house. Soon she made it upstairs and went for the door leading to the DJ room. I stepped in front of her.

"Not yet Scootaloo, I'll show you that tomorrow, but for now, it's time for bed, you have school tomorrow!" She nodded happily and turned around.

A few moments later she looked back at me confused. "Uh.... where do I stay?"

I looked for a moment before walking to my bed and pulling the covers down. I patted the bed, where she jumped onto it and got comfortable in the middle. I turned and saw a box on the ground. I saw a note on it.

Dear CJ,

Inside this box I have placed a few pairs of Pajamas. I understand that you may wear your underwear when you sleep, I feel that is not anyway to spend a night. So please take these as a gift from me.

Sincerly;

Rarity

I made a mental note to thank Rarity later. After getting changed in the bathroom I went towards the bed. My pajamas were basically comfortable pants that felt like they were made of silk yet stronger than leather. It was too dark to see their color. I only had pants on because no matter what, I never sleep with a shirt on. But at least I can wear these. Would feel awkward If I slept in my boxers with Scootaloo in the bed. I got in the bed and lay on the right side of Scootaloo. Fluttershy came over and lay on the left of her. We both wrapped one of our arms around Scootaloo who cuddled up to them. What I heard almost made my heart explode for the second time.

"Good night mommy and daddy... I love you..." Scootaloo whispered with her eyes shut.

My eyes just shot open and I looked over to Fluttershy who was smiling with her eyes closed. I closed my eyes and lay my head down.

"I love you too..." I whispered back.

'Today... was a day to remember'

(Insert witty title name here)

Chapter 27: (Insert witty title name here)

I slowly began to wake up and regain my senses. As I did I noticed it was quite early. Usually I never wake up this early. I figure out why I did when I begin smelling a heavenly scent of eggs and toast. I look to my side and see Scoots curled up around my arm hugging it tightly. I remove my arm and see her roll over and shove her face under the pillow. I slowly pull her out from under it and whisper to her.

"Come on Scoots, time to get up."

I only got a grunt in response.

"Don't make me ask again!"

Another grunt, "Five more minutes..."

"Fine, you asked for it."

Right then I rolled her onto her back and starting blowing into her belly. She started going into a laughing fit as I tickled her. Finally she gave up.

"O-Ok! haha I give u- pfft hahahaha! Up... stop! I hahaha surrender!

I gave a triumphant huff and lifted myself to my feet. Scoots jumped off the bed and made her way towards the doorway. I ran and picked her up throwing her on my back. She wrapped her hind legs around my back and front legs around my neck as I carried her down the stairs toward the kitchen.

"Enjoy it while it lasts, you wont always be this small!" I say jumping the last few steps.

We make it to the kitchen to see an annoyed looking Fluttershy. I set scoots down and she runs and sits at a table. I look at Fluttershy who is still annoyed.

"...what?"

"..."

"..."

"nothing..."

I went over to the stove where I saw eggs being cooked.

"Hey Shy, go sit down, let me take care of the cooking."

"No it's fine..."

I give her a deadpan look.

"Alright...."

After that she walks over and sits beside Scoots. When I finish the cooking I walk over and give Scoots and Fluttershy their plates before sitting with mine. Me and Fluttershy have two slices of toast and two eggs. Scoots has one slice and an egg. As we eat I notice Scoots eating with the egg on the toast.

'Should remember that...'

*********************

When breakfast was finished and we had left the house, I was walking Scoots to school. Fluttershy had insisted on staying behind to clean up. Not even I could tell her no. When we neared the school two fillies ran towards us.

"Sweetie belle! Applebloom!" Shouted Scoots.

"Scootaloo!" Shouted the two.

They were talking to each other about random things while we walked in a group. As we neared the school all of the children were looking at me in awe...

'Well... this is awkw... oh ya... I'm a DJ... duh....'

Just as I was about to say goodbye two fillies came up. Two I knew all to well. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. They walked over towards Scoots and her friends. They stopped a few feet from them.

"Hey blank flanks, are you three STILL looking for your special talent?" Said Diamond Tiara.

"Maybe their Special talent is failure." Said Silver Spoon while giggling.

"We don't feel like dealing with you right now, can't you just leave us alone?" Said Scoots.

"Oh please. Now the blank flanks are giving us orders?" Said Diamond Tiara.

'I'm gunna hafta smack'a'bitch'

I was a bit further away because I was starting to head home. So I was not seen my Diamond Tiara or her friend.

"I wonder how much you payed the DJ for that pair of goggles you showed during class. Like the DJ would want anything to do with the likes of blank flanks like yourselves." Stated Diamond Tiara.

'Charging up falcon-bitch-slap'

"Well... actually CJ is my-"

"Another story huh? Don't bore me with these pointless lies Scootaloo, your own parents wanted nothing to do with you."

'Warning! Falcon-bitch-slap power over 9000!'

I began to walk towards Diamond Tiara, Sadly before I could even attempt at a hit, Scoots ran in front of me.

"DAD!" She yelled, happy I was still there.

She turned to Diamond Tiara when she let out a loud gasp.

"I'm sorry Diamond Tiara, what was that?"

"D-Did you just say.... dad?" Said Diamond Tiara still in shock.

Scoots just nodded, and believe it or not, Diamond Tiara literally FAINTED! everyone but Silver Spoon fell on the ground and went into a laughing fit. When we finished I saw the girls look at each other and start making their way towards the school.

"Lets get the day over with so we can do more adventuring and crusading!" Said one of them.

'*Sigh* I remember when I was a great adventurer like them... until I got older...'

I shrugged and made my way back home, I had a lot of time to spare before work. But as I walked, each step I took made the ground feel more and more cold, and I had the most familiar feeling of being watched...

A nightmare is coming

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay on chapters, been a bit busy with school, but without further a due... lets get started!

Chapter 28: A nightmare is coming

As I walked home I felt the feeling of being watched slowly increase. I tried my best to ignore it but a ringing in my ears began getting louder and louder. Soon I could start hearing faint screams getting louder that seemed to echo through my thoughts. I just kept walking. The sound began to reach a point where it became unbearable.... until a figure stepped forward from nowhere...

"CJ? A-Are you OK?" Said a timid voice.

I looked to my left and standing there on the path with me was Fluttershy. I looked forward and the figure was gone. I was standing in front of my house door. I turned back to Fluttershy and put on a semi-convincing smile.

"Y-Ya... I'm OK Shy..."

"W-Well... I saw y-you just standing here, I-I thought you would open it. But y-you j-just stood there for a f-few m-minutes s-staring..." She looked pretty scared.

I bent down and pulled her in a hug.

"Sorry Shy, I didn't mean to scare you... I... I just had a few things on my mind..." Somewhere in my thoughts I hear a VERY faint chuckle.

Fluttershy looked back to me and gave a slow nod. We slowly broke the hug and I made my way to the door.

"Hey Shy, do you want to pick up Scoots from the school today... or should I?"

Fluttershy thought for a moment and looked back at me with a smile.

"I could pick her up CJ, maybe we can also do something around Ponyville, maybe with her friends if they want to as well."

I nodded and said my goodbye's. I walked to the door and went inside.

'Hm.... what to do.... maybe I should get ready for work....'

I made my way to my room to get ready when I saw a note. I picked it up and read it.

Dear CJ

I have sent this letter to inform you that today has been very slow. We have gotten very little business today so you can have the day off. Have fun!

P.S. I heard you have adopted Scootaloo, I hope she can have a nice childhood now, you have no idea how much you must mean to her. Tell her I said Hi!

Your Friend;

Ditzy

I gave a small smiled and then a frown.

'Yay no work today... Boo I'm bored now...'

I decided to head to the library, maybe I could get a nice book. I finally arrived at the library and knocked. It was magically opened and I saw Twilight sitting down under.... piles of books...

"This is a public library you know... these books don't all belong to me..." She said to the visitor.

"Sorry but it sure seems like they do..." I said looking at all the books she has around her and is reading at the same time.

She looks up to me and gives a small blush. She levitates all of them up except for a few and puts them on the shelf. She turns back to me and blushes even more.

"I was just coming here to see if I could find a good book... any suggestions?"

She thought for a moment and they levitated me a book while.... blushing deeper....

'Why does she keep do- OH! Right... the kiss...'

I took the book and looked it over.

'Equestrian holidays and celebrations... why this one?'

I looked up about to ask before she began to speak.

"I think you may need that... after all you came from a different world... they may have had different holidays as well. Plus nightmare night is coming up in about a week."

'Nightmare night?' I thought as I opened the book and stopped at the right holiday.

I scanned it over and found it is almost identical to Halloween. Only thing is they are scared of Nightmare moon, not of undead spirits and whatnot.

"A week huh? Hm... that gives me an idea... but on a side note, do you have anything else you think I may be interested in? Like as 'Fun' reading material?"

She thought for another moment and handed me a different book. I looked this one over before laughing a bit to my self, luckily she didn't notice. It was one of the Daring Doo books. Called 'Daring Doo V.S. the Shadow Archers' I flipped the book upside down and read a bit of the back cover.

Join Daring Doo as she fights some of Equestria's most talented and dangerous enemies. Join her ans she fights shadow enemies that seem near invincible... all is well until she takes an arrow to the...

'.................. DIS GUN BE GUD'

I smiled like an idiot and turned back to Twilight.

"Thanks Twi, I'll see you later!" Twilight just nodded and waved.

I made it outside with the two books and began walking back home. On my way there I pull out my I-Pod and hit shuffle. After listening to music for about 10 minutes I made it to my house. I opened the door and sat down in the living room couch. I placed the holiday stoofs book on a end table. I relaxed myself and opened the Daring Doo book. Before I could get five words in I felt something cold strike the back of my neck sending the hairs straight up. I turned and saw nothing. I relaxed a bit more and tried to start more reading. This time I felt it again but it was a bit colder. I looked again... nothing. I turned back around and infront of the couch... standing straight up was.... me? It stared back at me with an evil grin before I saw it flicker once into shadow then back to normal. It was him again...

"How nice to meet you again... this time however... I am a lot stronger... and I brought a friend along..."

Another figure forms next to the first and takes the shape of a half man half horse being holding a blade staff...

"Happy to be here Zane" Said the figure.

"I'm glad you kept my spot for me... I am here to take it back... we can do this the hard way... or the painfully hard way. Either way is enjoyable by me... Don't you think Hecarim?" Said Zane.

"Heheh... indeed..."

Then everything went black.

CJ: 'CJs thoughts'

Zane: "Zane speaking"

Hecarim: "Hecarim speaking"

A living hell

Chapter 29: A living hell

I slowly begin to regain all of my senses. But I stay still for a few minutes because I am not sure if I can see yet. Because either my eyes are closed, or everything is pitch black, without a hint of light. After waiting and waiting I get an idea.

'Maybe I can try and use Tia's magic, the color may give me light...'

After that thought I focused on encasing my hands in magic much like I had when lifting the cup, but this time just encasing my hands. I felt an ice cold sensation that was... strange enough, not hurting my hand from it's temperature. But even while feeling this, there was no light. Before I had a chance to even figure out what was happening, there was light in front of me. Dull, but it was still light. The light was coming from a candle resting on a small wooden table. I walked towards it and looked at it. Thats when I saw my hands. They were encased in magic, but... it wasn't normal.... If you call it normal anyway... the magic was completely black, and as it encased my hand flowed away from it like dark flames. I tried to force more power into my hands and tried to bring back Tia's magic, but then I saw my arms begin to turn to shadow. Then my shoulders... soon my whole body became a shadow. At the edges of my form I could see the shadow wisp off me like black flame, and I could see through my own body. I didn't know what to think. After a few moments the shadow flames retracted and my body turned to normal, but the shadow flames stayed at my hands. I shivered a bit from how cold my body had become during the cycle. I hadn't noticed until now.

"Heheheh... do you like it?" Said a voice from behind me...

I didn't turn around. "What did you do to me..." I said in a low voice.

He didn't answer.

I turned around quickly. "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO ME!"

As I turned around I saw a strange being. I hadn't gotten to see the details the other times I had seen him. But from where I was now, I was pretty sure I had died or looking at him, no way I would live, so I studied him for a few moments. He was huge. He looked like a centaur. Or whatever the half human/horse things are. But looked.... off... most of his body was covered in strange tattered clothes. In the center of his chest I saw what looked like a very creepy looking symbol, it looked to be made of either silver or some other metal. His tail looked like it was made of pure flame, but was deep blue. He seemed to wear a strange looking helmet. The only thing was is there were no eyes, or a mouth in the holes of the helmet, only more blue energy that could be seen through the holes. a semi-large blue flame was emitting out of the back of the helmet. Finally, he held a large staff that had a weird blade on the end that looked somewhat like a weird looking scythe. (If you want to know what he looks like off a pic if you don't already do, I got the looks from here)

He looked back at me and made a low growling noise. "Chooose your woordss wiselyy... pathetic human, or they shall be your lassst."

I sat there for a moment looking calm and relaxed, but on the inside I was ready to snap.

'First I am brought to equestria... then I start having nightmares, next I... well DIE... then I have to save Tia giving me her magic but causing me to have to fight a fucked up shadow thingy, then pinkie almost makes the world implode with the 4th wall... I mean 8th wall as she put it... whatever... THEN the shadow comes back but this time with his own pal Mr. Shit disturber. WHAT THE FUCK NEXT? HUH? got anything ELSE YOU WANT TO THROW AT ME WORLD? HUH? I'm sure you must have something, like what next, I get trapped in my own fucking mind?' My thought rampage was finished when I noticed that Shit disturber was talking.

"- so you are now locked inside your own mind for the rest of both of you lives." He finished.

'Eye-twitch'

I slowly turned around with a smile on my face and walked to where the candle sat on the table. I picked up the candle and set it on the floor. I then began to repeatedly slam my face against the table.

"Fuck me 'WHACK' Fuck me 'WHACK' Fuck me 'WHACK' Fuck me........ WHACK" As I did this a confused voice came from behind me.

"What are you doing?"

I stopped and turned my face to him. "Punishing my brain." I then continued.

After a few minutes of hitting my head I realized I'm not brain dead so I just sigh and turn towards him.

"Continue..."

He nodded. "You are now trapped inside your own mind..." 'Eye-twitch' "...Where you are going to live here for the rest of your pathetic life. I am here to watch you over. To ensure you do not try to escape. If you do, I will swiftly feed you to my men."

I lifted an eyebrow. "What men?" I had to ask.

Hecarim looked at me and slammed his staff into the ground. Immediately six spectral like entities appeared and looked like knights on horses, but very light blue, almost white, and was transparent. I slowly nodded.

"Mmmk... no running... got it..."

Hecarim dismissed the riders and walked towards me and sat on the opposite side of the table. We sat there for a while looking at each other. Finally I got bored and decided to ask.

"Ok... so we will be here a long time, anything to do here?" I asked.

I swear I thought I saw him smile. "I thought you would never ask..." He said as a ghost like chess board appeared on the table, along with a chair for me to sit.

"Chess huh? been a while since I played."

"We have a lot of time, I'll teach you..." I just nodded.

We began to play as he taught me how to do what. After a few games I got the hang of it and actually became a challenge. Then a thought crossed my mind.

"Yo Hecarim... whats your story anyway?" He looked at me almost like he was curious, or didn't know the answer.

"It has been a long time since I had been asked that... why do you wish to know?"

"Well, we will be stuck here a long time so... why the hell not?" He nodded in agreement.

"Very well, a long time ago, I never used to look like this..." He said moving a pawn forward.

"I used to be a pony... I used to have a life." I moved my rook a few spaces.

"A long time ago a war broke out in Equestria, the last war known for a long... long time." He said as he used his queen to take out one of my bishops.

"I tried to stay away from the battles that were raging the lands. But one day... the village I lived in was attacked." He said as I moved my queen forward and took a rook.

"They burned all of the houses. My family was caught in one of the fires, they died in their sleep." He said sounding almost sad.

"I had been out of town collecting herbs for a potion I needed for my sick children... I had found them and began to make my way back to the village when I saw the smoke..." He said looking at nothing in particular, the chest game forgotten.

"I galloped as fast as I could... but when I had seen what had happened... and nothing was left of my family than mere ashes... I let rage and lust for revenge consume me..." He paused for a moment.

"I prayed to the element of evil itself for the strength I needed to take my revenge. I had gotten my wish. Most thought Celestia and Luna's forces had won them the war... but that is not true, I went ahead... seeking out each and every one of them and slaughtering them. When I had killed them all..." He finished with a sad tone.

"I had to pay the price for my wish... he consumed me and turned me into a shadow of war. I cannot age, nor can I ever love again. I wander this world, usually accepting the odd mercenary job... or killing the mercenary's after me. Then I met your shadow friend..." He said in a low tone staring at me.

"He offered complete control of Equestria to me if I assisted him. All I had to do was get you out of the way so he could consume Celestia and Luna for their powers." He said with a stern voice.

"Which brings us to this moment now." He finished staring at me. "Also, check-mate." He said moving his queen up to my king causing a checkmate.

I just sat there slack jawed at the whole story. Seeing a creature such as this... you would never in you life expect that sort of reason to the choices. I snapped out of it and looked down to the board just before it got reset.

"Fuck..." I said as I threw him a bit.

He caught it and put it in a pocket on his torn clothes, I don't know why he needed it, but it was probably just for fun, I sure as hell don't need it. Then genius struck.

"Well Hecarim... that's... quite the story... there is just one thing that bothers me..." I said, causing him to look up at me.

"What makes you think he will honestly allow you to rule Equestria when the time comes?" I said to him with curiosity in my voice.

"Because if he doesn't I will personally slaughter him. And take control forcefully." He said without doubt.

"Well, what about Celestia and Luna, their power combined is surly enough to destroy you." I said getting ready for realization to hit.

"That is true, but they will not be a problem when the shadow consumes th..." BAM! REALIZATION IMPACT TO THE MAAAAAAX!

I gave a small smile. "Problem?"

He thought for a moment and began to think. "No, he wouldn't dare do that. There would be no way." He said in a voice that lacked confidence.

"But how would you know for sure?"

He thought for a moment and looked to me. "Leave the subject be, I will rule Equestria and I will not be fooled."

"Why rule Equestria?"

"So everypony would be able to feel the pain I go through every day of my life after that moment I lost everything I heald close to me..."

"And you think that will solve anything?"

"That is enough, I will do what I see right." He said with anger.

"What happened to you that long ago was not our fault! Why cause US pain?"

"I said enough!" He said standing up.

"Doing this will not help your pain at all! If anything it will make you feel worse!"

"I said, ENOUGH!" He threw me to the ground and began to thrust his bladestaff down to me.

"WHAT WOULD YOUR FAMILY THINK?" I yelled as his blade stops dead just before my throat.

"HUH? WHAT WOULD THEY THINK? do you REALLY think they would WANT this? all of this DEATH? NO! Doing this would disgust them!"

The blade still at my throat he yells back. "YOU DON'T KNOW THAT!"

"NEITHER DO YOU!" I yelled back.

>>>Perspective change: Hecarim<<<

"NEITHER DO YOU!" CJ yelled back.

I stood there for a moment with the blade to his throat.

'I could kill him right now, why do I hesitate?'

I thought as it hit me.

'I can't because.... he's right...'

>>>Perspective change: CJ<<<

We sat there for a few moments, I could have sworn time had frozen if I couldn't hear his low breathing. After what seemed like hours he pulled the blade away.

"Get up." he said as he reached his hand down.

He helped me up and turned around. He began to walk into blackness for a while before coming to a stop and looking over his shoulder.

"Well? What the hell are you waiting for? Lets go kick some shadow ass!" He shouted as he stomped his front hooves into the ground.

I smiled and followed him close behind as we walked into the darkness. He slammed his staff end off the ground and it began to shine bright blue. Illuminating a cobblestone path that we began to follow. After a bit of walking I turned to him.

"What do you plan on doing once we... kill... him?"

He thought for a moment and then spoke back. "Honestly I don't know... I do not belong anywhere... all I know is fighting..."

I thought for a moment before a smile spread through my face.

"I know exactly what you could do, but you need to make me a deal."

He looked at me with a questioning face. (I don't know how he does it through the helmet either, don't ask)

"Alright, what deal?"

I stopped and so did he, I reached my hand out. "That no matter what happens, you are a friend of Equestria... now and always."

He thought for a moment and stretched out his arm and grasped mine. As we shook I realized I hadn't told him my name. "Names CJ by the way, I think we can become good friends." I said finishing the shake and began walking with him down the path once more.

"Why's that?"

I looked at him and smiled. "Because we both like hitting things, we both hate that shadow guy, and we both look awesome." I said as he gave a small laugh.

"Heheh... I guess so..."

I nodded and we turned to the darkness ahead and followed the path towards whatever lay ahead.

Meanwhile in Ponyville... a Shitstorm was a' brewin.

Dangerous power

Chapter 30: A dark conflict

>>>Perspective change: Evil CJ<<<

As I walked down the corridors towards the princesses' throne room I couldn't help but smile. This was all too easy. And with that idiot horse keeping CJ in check, nothing can stop me from consuming them.

"CJ, why was it so important to see the princesses?" Asked Twilight, walking alongside her friends.

"Because, I need to discuss... urgent matters with them." I said. (Dark CJ... for now anyway... sounds like normal CJ, I put the text like that to differentiate them)

She gave a nod and continued to walk. I stepped inside the room and saw the princesses. They came towards us. And I walked up to them.

"Celestia... Luna... I must speak to you now... in private." They hesitated but nodded and motioned for me to follow.

Celestia led both me and Luna to her bedroom. She opened the doors and went inside. Once inside I turned and shut the door. I then used a spell to seal it closed. I turned back to a confused Luna and a cautious Celestia.

"Alright, Celestia, come here." Still cautious, she approached.

A sickening grin crossed my face. (His voice is now deep and shadowy again) "Goood... now die..."

Before she could react I thew my hand out and grabbed her horn. I began to funnel out her magic. Slowly her mane began to lose its color and began to sag down. It turned grey and her knees began to shake. After I let go of her horn she collapsed barely breathing. I noticed this and began to bring down my heel on her face. Just before I made contact I noticed resistance. I looked to see a sobbing Luna hugging Celestia for all its worth while creating a shield to try and protect themselves. I shook my head and hit the shield then recoiled. I sent Celestia's magic through my veins and into my fists and began hitting the shield.

>>>Perspective change: Luna<<<

I stood in shock as Celestia fell to the ground. I snapped out of shock noticing I was sobbing the whole time and saw CJ about to end her life with his foot. I galloped forward and held Celestia by the neck while crying and put up a shield. CJ hit it once and then began to pummel the shield. I could feel my spell weakening. I looked to Celestia who gave me a very weak smile and used the last of her strength to life her arms to me and hug me back.

"I'm sorry Luna.... I'm so sorry..." She whispered beginning to loosen her grip.

I just held her tighter feeling my spell become weaker and weaker. "Don't say that Tia... we will be fine, don't you dare fall asleep..."

Then her grip released completely and her head fell down. "Tia... wake up.... please... wake up..." I whispered...

"Please..." Was the last thing I whispered out before I felt the shield shatter around us.

Shadow showdown

Chapter 31: Shadow showdown

I ran along side Hecarim as we went deeper into the darkness. After a few minutes of running, Hecarim puts a hand in front of me.

"Wait." He said quietly.

I nodded and waited as we stood there. After a few moments he began to dim the light until everything went black. I was about to move when I felt his hand leave my chest. I was about to question his motives when I heard a loud scream and a loud "CRACK" Nearly right beside me. Then his light turned back on and I looked at where the noise had come from. There was a wolf laying on the ground. It looked the same as the shadow wolf I had seem before, but a lot smaller. Before I could take a closer look, It dissipated like mist. I looked to my right and saw Hecarim standing there.

"What wa-"

"We have to move faster." I didn't say a word.

I followed him now in a full sprint, no doubt he is slowing down for me to keep up. He stops me again and puts a finger up to his mouth. He then lifts his staff and slams it into the ground, the area around us temporarily brightens more and we see we are almost completely surrounded by... what looked like HUNDREDS of shadow wolves... I just stood there is frozen shock. He looked at me and slowly motioned ahead. I looked forward to see a faint light. I turned back to him.

"Go..."

"But-"

"Just go..."

I was about to protest when I saw the wolves almost closed the gap in front of us. Without a second thought I ran for my life. As I did dozens and dozens of wolves jumped at me. Just before they hit I had a VERY strange sensation. I saw a spectral rider run through me and ahead of me. Same with some on my left and right in an arrow formation. As the wolves jumped at me the riders swatted them away, stabbed, sliced, you name it. I began getting closer to the light and noticed it was a doorway. I took a look over my shoulder to see Hecarim fighting the hoard... alone...

"Come on! Is that all you got!" He shouted as one lunged and stuck itself to his shoulder.

He reached over and grabed it and tossed the wolf. Making impact with another wolf in mid lunge. He began running towards me, killing maybe hundrends on the way. I looked at the riders.

"Help him!"

They replied in a ghostly voice at the same time. "He ordered us to help you."

"But he needs help, GO!"

"But he-"

"FUCK ORDERS! GO NOW!"

They looked at each other before turning around and running for their master. They got their as one wolf bit his leg. Hecarim collapsed and I stopped. He looked up at me, and pointed to the door. I looked at the door and at him. Not a second thought crossed my mind before I turned and ran at him. I kneeled beside him as his riders fought.

"Can you walk!?" He shook his head.

"Can they carry you?" I said pointing to the fighting riders.

"If they do we will be overwhelmed sooner. You need to go now!"

"Fuck that dude, you are my newest friend." I said lifting him up and supporting him by letting him lean on me.

"Besides..." I said as we began walking forward.

"We both have debt to collect from that ass..." I said with a smile.

"Indeed, riders, move!"

We began making our way to the door. On the way the wolves were piling up. They were easy to kill but just overwhelming in numbers. But with the riders, we had a good chance to make it. After maybe five minutes of feeling helpless in the middle of the fight knowing one wolf could end us all, we make it to the door. I try to open it but the handle feels more hot than a coal.

"AH! Dafuq?"

Hecarim forces himself to stand and take a few uneasy steps to the door. He leans on it and grabs the handle. As he does so the handle turns to gold and the doorway begins to outline in white. He pushes it open and I grab him and walk through the door. As we do his riders dissipate and we shut the door. As we shut the door a light blinds us. I rub my eyes and slowly get back my sight. I look around and see a mix of confusion and fear from none other than the mane 6!

"What n' tar'nation?" Said AJ.

"CJ, how did you get here... who is that? Why aren't you with the princesses still?" Said a confused Twilight.

I stand up with Hecarim who leans on me again, as we stand all the girls take a few steps back in fear.

"Don't worry, he's harmless... kind of... but he is hurt, Shy, can you help him?" I asked to Fluttershy.

Fluttershy nodded. "O-Oh... alright CJ..."

I smile and look to an anxious Twilight. "Yes?"

"Well?" She said annoyed.

"Well what?"

"Why are you here now and not still with the princesses?" She stated.

"Long story short I... wait... still with the princesses?" I said a bit concerned.

"Ya, you just went in that room and once the door shut you appeared right here."

"Oh fuck me..." I said as I ran to the door and tried to open it.

As I pull on the handle I hear a scream and crying from the inside. Then a lot of banging. I turn around and start looking around.

"Shitshitshitshitshitshit SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" I yelled trying to think fast.

"What is it CJ?" Asked Twilight.

"Twilight, try and open that door fast!" I yelled out.

She powered up her magic and as it surrounded the door she let out a gasp and dropped to the floor a bit trying to catch her breath.

"I-I... I can't!"

"FUCK! How the hell do we get in there now? Oh we are all-"

"BRAAAAAANG CRACK!"

I turn quick to see that Hecarim (Now bandaged) Had charged the door and shoved his spear through it and pulled the thing off the fucking hinges!

"Shit dude! Chess is one thing... but I will never arm wrestle you!"

I ran forward and looked inside to see a horrible sight. Celestia lay on the ground unmoving and I couldn't tell if she was breathing. And I saw Zane holding Luna by her horn. As I noticed this I saw Luna's horn light up.

'Shit he is consuming her'

I ran at him, he must have been pretty damn distracted to not hear the carnage Hecarim just caused, I dove and tackled him to the ground. He released his hold on Luna who fell to the ground holding her head the same way someone would if they just got a brain-freeze. I was immediately thrown off of him across the room. I slowly got up and looked over to him. He stood there with a very pissed off look.

"I will make you suffer for this interruption..." He said coldly.

He flared his hands with a yellowish orange aura which spread to his whole body, after a few moments it turned black and he floated off the ground about a foot. I tried to stop whatever he was doing by throwing a punch. As my fist was about a foot from his chest I hit a barrier that made me recoil. I stepped back knowing that I may not want to be close when he finishes something I can't stop now. The magic faded and he dropped to the ground. His body turned transparent and deep black. His eyes were yellow and seemed to seep energy out the sides into an unknown wind.

'We. Are. Fucked.'

I decided to try and look intimidating, so I tried what I did in my mind with Hecarim, I flared my hands to make the shadow flame come back. But instead just orange light appeared. It was slightly disappointing. When I tried to make it cover my body like before It encased me. And I felt a... presence in my mind...

'Gtfo buddy, unless you think my mind is safer than fighting me here.'

'Watch your tongue CJ...'

My eyes widened. 'P-P-Princess?!'

'Indeed, I will tell you later however... right now, you know nothing about magic, by the way... move.'

I was confused at first but obeyed. I jumped to the left avoiding a black laser. I looked up to see the Zane had fired a beam of energy at me.

'Oh ya... forgot...'

I looked to my left and saw Hecarim standing there. He slammed his staff into the ground cracking it around him and summoning six spectral riders around him who all gave battle cries and ran towards Zane. He immediately obliterated two of them, to have two more form next to Hecarim and run towards him again.

"Dude... that's OP..." I said amazed.

"Oh what?" He asked.

"Never mind."

I jumped to the left dodging another beam.

"I could help you with the magic now... But you have to ask nicely!" She said in a high tone.

'DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS THE TIME OR PLACE FOR THIS?' I shouted into my head. (Ya I can do that! COME AT MEH BRO!)

'Well then... I guess I'll just be-'

'Oh for fuck sakes, FINE! May I please have your help with this awesome magic that supposedly is worth it most beautiful one?'

'Much better...'

'Fuckin trollestia...'

'I heard that'

'I know'

'Then why did you say it!'

'Because I-' My thoughts were cut off when Hecarim pulled me out of the path of another beam.

"Whats wrong with you! You're gonna get yourself killed!" He shouted.

I nodded and turned to Zane. He was still fighting the riders but he seems to make quick work of them, they seem more of a distraction. Hecarim runs at him and as he gets there he slams his spear down on him, to have it delflected. He stood for a moment before taking a step back. He raised his hand in the air and the ground around him began to bubble slightly. Wherever Zane walked I could see hands reach out to try and slow him down.

"So fucking OP...."

Hecarim swinging at Zane only to have him dodge and hit the floor snapped me out of my trance.

'So Tia, what was this about magic?' I asked watching the two fight.

'Because I would love to help right about now.'

'Name something, anything'

I smiled a bit... 'Anything? Hm... how about... FROSTMOURNE!'

'Frost... Ah here it is... why this?'

'I don't know... it looks beast?'

'Alright then'

I felt warmth begin to flow through my veins and to my arms, I closed my hands and in the center of them a large object formed.

"Oh fuck yes."

I looked at the sword in amazement as I saw the cool mist seep off the sharp blade. (Here is a pic of Frostmourne if you don't know what it looks like)

I began to walk towards him holding the blade in my hands, once he saw me he shot a beam towards me. It hit my sword (Thank god) And began to glow a darker shade of blue. I ran at him and dodge one beam and sliced downwards at him. He dodged to the right and elbowed me in the side. I turned and saw him in mid punch. I brought up my free hand to my face. Nothing happened so I opened my eyes. Hecarim grabbed his hand mid punch. He then pulled it up and began to put pressure on it, just to have his hand fall out of grasp.

'Shit, he's a shadow'

'You have the power of the sun... don't forget that'

'I didn't forget shit! You don't tell me these things!'

I dodged another punch and swung my blade at him. It swiped his hand and took off three fingers from his left hand. He howled in pain as I overlooked my blade. The deeper blue shade lightened after the strike after it had been darkened from the beam.

'It feeds off power... Tia, funnel all the light you can into this sword quick!'

As I finished that sentence I saw the sword start to seep gold energy.

'It will take a while but I'll tell you when'

I began dodging and fighting alongside Hecarim. I took a few swings just for them to pass through him. He had stopped firing beams at us knowing the swords power. Hecarim had begun getting tired and could no longer summon spectral riders or change the ground to... whatever the hell it did. I continued hacking at him doing nothing. Dodging now and again.

'Almost there! Maybe another half minute!'

I nodded slightly and continued fighting. 20 seconds later I missed a swing and left myself open. He threw his open palm towards my right shoulder, filling his arm full of dark flaming energy.

"CRAAAACK BANG SSSSsssss"

When the sound sizzled out I looked around. I was still standing where I was, infront of a slightly confused Zane. I looked down at a slightly steaming body.

"You mother fucker... YOU FUCKER!" I yell as I run at him.

he begins dodging constantly as I swing at him in complete anger. He jumped to the left and began to punch towards me, I turn around quickly and catch his hand mid air, with golden light surrounding my hand.

"Game over..." I say as I plunge the blade into his chest.

He lurches back a bit from the contact and his eyes go wide. His body becomes less translucent and I pull out the blade. I see golden cracks spreading from his wound to the rest of his body. He looks up to me from his knees as it nears his neck.

"Goodbye Zane..." I say as I swing the blade and take his head clean off.

His body twitches once and then falls to the side. Eventually his body and head are covered in the golden cracks and they start emitting white light, once they fade I see his body sitting there. I stare for a few moments before it begins to crumble to dust.

'Uh... Swords ready?'

Not a moment later do I run to my fallen friend and check his pulse. Just for my hand to go through his neck.

'Oh ya... no skin...'

'He was a good fighter, and a good friend, he sacrificed himself for you'

'Indeed... I wish there was something I could do...'

'Hm... CJ, check Luna please'

I nodded and walked towards the blue pile on the floor. I knelt down and check her breathing and pulse. She was fine.

'Good, now go to my body'

So I did. I walked over to it and checked her body too. My blood ran cold.

'U-Uh... Tia... you seem to be-'

'It's alright, the body cannot live without the soul. Now... to get me back...' She trailed off.

'Ahem... yes?'

'O-Oh... yes... you have to... sort of... kiss me...'

'...'

'...'

'...'

'...'

'...no...'

'Would you rather me stay in your body forever and be wherever you are? Plus I think I can help your friend'

I thought for a moment. 'I am doing this for my FRIEND only....'

As I knelt down I didn't notice the girls in the other room had come out of shock and were standing at the doorway watching me. I pushed my lips onto her cold lips and I could feel them getting warmer and I could feel breathing. I was about to pull back when...

'NO! DON'T! Do not interrupt it!'

I rolled my eyes and continued. After maybe a full minute I opened my eyes and met hers. I began to lean back up when I noticed all of the girls watching me. Fluttershy looked EXTREMELY pissed.

'Ohhhh... fuck me....'

'That.... was for making Twilight kiss me' Celestia said into my thoughts.

'W-Wait... you mean... I didn't have to...'

'Nope, all you had to do was touch me and I could transfer myself into my body'

'...'

'...'

'..........are you kidding...?'

'No...'

'Eyetwitch'

'CJ? Are you alright?'

"FUCK YOU TROLLESTIA AND YOUR MERCILESS WAYS!"

The Void

Chapter 32: The Void

Everyone but Celestia and Fluttershy were startled by my outbreak. Celestia was trying hard not to laugh, while Fluttershy was slowly advancing towards me. As I watched her walk closer, I had felt the most fear I have ever felt in a long time.

"S-Shy... I-I can e-e-exp-plain...." I stuttered out.

"I-" I was cut off when Shy launched towards me and stopped dead in front of my face as I was kneeling.

"NO! You DON'T! You never cared about me! About Scootaloo! About any of us!" She shouted to me while staring me in the eyes.

As I looked into her eyes painful memories came flooding back. "I-I... S-Shy... I-I..."

"Don't even try to explain! It was all just an act to get us to love you! Wasn't it! WASN'T IT!?" She shouted still staring into my eyes....

As I stared into her eyes I felt the world getting darker around me... I began to get tunnel vision as everything went black.

Ten years ago.... Age 10.... Earth (Third person perspective now)

As two brothers walked home from school one began looking anxious.

"Jack... I need to ask you something..." Chris said coming to a stop on the path leading to their house door.

"Yes Chris? Whats wrong?" Said Jack in a concerned tone.

"Well... I need to know... do you..." Chris paused and took a deep breath. "Do you believe me?" He asked looking up to his smaller brother in front of him.

Jack seemed a bit taken aback by the question. "Believe you, what do you mean?"

"I mean, about my nightmares... and what I am always saying about that man who haunts me...." Said Chris.

Jack though for a second before going up beside his older brother. "Chris... I'm not sure If I do or not... but know this, no matter what happens, I'll be there to help you through." Jack said draping his arm around Chris.

Chris smiled a little at that answer. "Thanks... that's good to know."

Jack nodded. "Alright, now lets get home." He said as they walked up to their house door.

11:55 pm

Chris tossed and turned in his bed as he had the same nightmare as he had every day for as long as he can remember, but this time, everything seemed so much more... real. Chris shot up in his bed and began trying to catch his breath. When He finally did he turned to his clock to see it was 12:00.

"*Groan*"

Chris got up and walked out of the room towards the kitchen. When he got there he opened the fridge.

"A good midnight snack should help me sleep." He said to himself.

As he closed the fridge door while holding a plate which had left over chicken on it he froze in place at a familiar voice.

"Hello again.... miss me?" It spoke.

Chris began looking around frantically as his eyes landed on a set of knives on a counter. He lurched forward and grabbed one and held it to himself.

"W-W-Whatever you w-want... p-p-please j-just do it and go away!" Chris shouted to no one.

"I was hoping you would say that..." As he finished that sentence there was a pained shout from upstairs.

Chris immediately forgot all other fears and just ran towards the noise. When he got to his brothers room, he froze. Chris took a deep breath ans slowly pushed the door open. Chris immediately froze in both fear, sadness, and disgust. In the middle of the room in a pile of his own blood lay his younger brother with multiple stab wounds in his chest. Chris dropped the knife and ran to his brother. He kneeled down and gently lifted his head to his lap.

"J-Jack... no... no I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry... this is all my fault..." Chris repeatted.

Jack lifted his right hand and put it on Chris's cheek. "It's alright brother... this is not your fault.... don't ever think that..." Said Jack weakly.

"I'm just sorry I didn't believe you before... this is gonna be a heck of a mess to clean up..." Said Jack looking at all the blood while chuckling slightly.

Chris held his brother tighter. "Y-Yea... we are gonna have a tough time getting the stains out..." Chris said hugging his brother.

"Yeah... j-just like when we all d-drank t-too much at the C-Christm-mas party..." Jack Stuttered out.

"Yup... mom was sure mad when she found us drinking... but we fixed that mess... and we will both fix this one too..." Chris said, Tears streaking down his cheeks.

"Yeah... but I think blood is a lot harder to..." Jack trailed off.

Chris pulled out of the hug to look into his brothers lifeless eyes. "Jack? Jack... please wake up... please..."

"You must forget how to love, only to hate..." Said a deep voice...

"In the end... your loved ones will always abandon you...."

The voice trailed off as the world became a blur and everything went black.

Present time, 19 Years old, Equestria (First person again)

As the memory ended and I regained my vision I saw I was laying on the ground curled up. I was shaking and I could see everyone was in a group a few feet away.

"Fluttershy! Why would you do that to him! Who knows what that might have done!" Said Twilight.

"It's fine Twilight, It was my fault for playing such a foolish joke on him..." Said Celestia.

"Look! He's awake!" Said Pinkie pie pointing to me.

Everyone flooded over to me and crowded around me. Fluttershy pulled me into a hug.

"Are you alright? I'm so sorry! Sometimes I can't control it..." She said on the verge of tears.

"It's alright... I'm fine." I said a bit shaky.

Celestia walked up to me and bent down to eye level. "CJ... what happened... what did you see..." She said as Hecarim came up beside her.

'So he made it... good to know...'

I looked at Celestia as tears welled up in my eyes... "I-It was nothing important... come on... let's go home..."

Everyone stood up and helped me to my feet. When I got up I walked along side Fluttershy as we left the Castle. On the way there Fluttershy was looking anywhere but me. When I got to my house Fluttershy turned to me.

"Listen... I'm really sorry CJ..." She said almost about to cry again.

I bent down and pulled her into a hug. "I'm fine... really... now go home and get a good nights sleep, don't worry about me."

I broke the hug as she nodded. We gave each other a quick kiss and she flew into the air. She hesitated and turned to me. "If you ever need to talk to me, I'm always willing to listen." I nodded as she flew to her house.

I opened the unlocked door and walked upstairs. I got changed and went to the bed to see Scoots already laying there. I smiled and got into bed. As I did Scoots grabbed onto my neck and buried her face into my chest.

"I'm glad your home daddy..." She said softly.

I looked at her and smiled stroking her mane. "Me too... me too..."

I closed my eyes and almost immediately sleep took me in it's grasp.

Holiday Planning

Chapter 33: Holiday Planning

"Poke...... get up...... poke...... get up...... poke...... WAKE UP!" Yelled Scoots.

"MrrmphrrraaAAAAHHHHG!" I yelled out as I flew up from my sleep and tumbled to the ground.

I shook my head and slowly got up to see a laughing Scoots. I shook my head a bit.

"Tsk tsk tsk... that wasn't nice... now I have to punish you..." I said sadly.

Her laughing stopped. "W-What...?" She stuttered.

I lunged forward and grabbed her. I pushed her onto the bed and began blowing into her stomach.

"Wha HAHAHAHA! S-St-HAHA-Stop! T-This isn't F-HAHA-F-Fair!" She shouted through her giggling.

I stopped and got of the bed. After her giggling calmed down she looked up to me. "I have to learn to expect that..." She said with mock enthusiasm.

I rolled my eyes and went towards the bathroom with some clothes in hand.

"Scoots... I'm gonna grab a shower, you head down stairs and wait for me, then I'll make us some breakfast." I heard Scoots shout back in compliance.

*******************

After a short shower I pulled my clothes on and went down stairs and to the kitchen. I walked in and cracked two eggs. I placed two slices of bread in the toaster.

'Oh ya... I didn't know they had toasters... must have slipped my mind...' I thought to myself.

After a few moments of cooking I heard some hoof steps. I looked over to my right and saw Scoots walking in.

"Hey Scoots, after breakfast want me to walk you to school?" I asked.

"No... I don't..." She said.

I raised an eyebrow. "Why not?"

She smiled a bit and gave a small snicker. "We don't go to school on the weekends."

'Facepalm'

"Heheh... yea... forgot today's Saturday... hmm.... what do you want to do then?" I asked as I scooped up the over easy eggs and placed them on pieces of toast.

"Hmm... well... maybe we should go and pick out some costumes!" She said as I placed her plate containing egg on toast in front of her.

"Costumes? For what?" I asked sitting across from Scoots at the table.

"Costumes for nightmare night! It's only two days away!" She said a bit louder than she probably meant.

"Two days huh? Well I guess your right then..." I said taking a bite of my food. "I wonder what I'll be... maybe an alien from a different planet!" I said to Scoots.

Scoots did nothing but facehoof.

"Oh... ya... right... heheh.... Well, I don't think there are any costumes for something like me... so I don't really need one, But what would you want?" I asked changing the subject.

Scoots tapped her chin a few times before jumping in the air. "A Shadow Bolt!" She said loudly.

"A.... Shadow.... Bolt?" I asked, sounding familiar.

"A Shadow Bolt, Rainbow Dash dressed up as one last year! They're like... the evil Wonderbolts!"

I smiled and stood up. I walked over to her and stroked her mane once before picking up her plate. "Shadow Bolt it is!" I say cheerfully.

****************

After grabbing some bits (Five gold bits... what? Always be prepared...) we left the house and made our way to ponyville. I followed Scoots for a while... as she was guiding me to the costume store. When we got there I looked it up and down. It looked like the opposite of Sugarcube corner. The place was midnight blue and had a few fake bats hanging here and there. Along with fake ghosts. The sign read 'Ghouls Emporium' as we walked through the door. There were rows upon rows of costumes. But nothing grabbed my attention as much as the two figures standing on a small stage...

"... So we welcome both Spitfire and Ja-" He was cut off when the second figure whispered in his ear. "Alright then... We welcome Spitfire and Ja... I mean... Daring Doo to ponyville for the upcoming Nightmare night and for the book and costume signings!" The announcer said aloud.

The announcer got off the stage while Spitfire and Daring Doo got off the other side. As the announcer walked by me I heard him mumble under his breath.

"Made me look like a fool... Why cant she just use her real name...."

I shook my head and looked down to the filly next to my feet. Scoots was frozen in place. Not even blinking.

"Uh... Scoots? You their?" I asked, waving my hand in front of her face.

She snapped out of it and looked up to me. "Y-Yeah... w-w-was t-that Spitf-fire and D-Daring D-Doo?" She shakily asked.

"Yeah... why? I didn't know you liked her books... The Wonderbolts sure but..."

Scoots looked at the floor. "I know... I'm an egg head..."

I shook my head and scooped her up. "What are you talking about? I love books too, your not an egg head! I just meant I wish you had told me."

"Why?" She asked looking at me.

"Well... where did you read the books from?" I asked her looking back to her eyes.

"I would borrow them off Rainbow Dash sometimes."

"Hm... I see... well, ONWARD!" I said pointing forward with the arm not carrying the filly, causing her to laugh a bit.

I began walking to the spot I had seen Daring and Spitfire go to, but stopped dead when I saw a huge line branching out of the store and going on for who knows how long.

"Oh dear... well then..." I said aloud.

I turned to Scoots who shrugged. "Maybe next time?" She asked.

"Maybe next time." I said.

I turned around and began walking back towards the costume isle when I heard a loud gasp and something skid to a stop right behind me causing Scoots to look over my shoulder and jump a bit.

"Let me guess... Pinkie pie?" I said calmly.

"Not. Even. Close." Scoots said slowly.

I raised and eyebrow and slowly turned around. When I fully turned around I nearly doubled over in shock and nearly had a heart attack. Standing near millimeters away from my face were two (And may I say VERY wide) Raspberry eyes looking straight into my own. We stayed like that for a moment before I decided to take a step back only for her to follow through with flying forward again.

"Uhh...." I began to say.

"You CAN talk!" Daring shouted. "This is SO. AWESOME!" She shouted again.

"What else can you do? What are you exactly? I heard your a Human but I wanted to ask and make sure. Who is this? Is it your child? Whats her name? Is-" I cut her off by placing a hand in front of her mouth.

"SHhhhhh...." I said with a finger to my lips.

She nodded and I let go. "Jeez... that bombardment of questions hurt more than a Twilight bomb..." I mumbled under my breath.

I looked down to Scoots for a moment then back up to see the eyes at my face again, causing me to jump back a bit. "JESUS..... Stop DOING that!" I said, as Scoots just laughed like a madmare.

Daring blushed a bit then landed on the ground. "S-Sorry... I can get a bit.... excited when I discover something I haven't come across before." She said kicking the ground a bit.

"It's alright, I understand how excited you must be. I just wanted to ask you how long you are here for?" I said causing her to look back up at me in confusion.

"The signing?" I said flatly.

"Oh... OH! Oh me and Spitfire will be here for another four hours. Why?" She said quickly.

"Well, I was hoping I could buy a collection of the books... signed of course." I said, causing a small and surprised gasp from Scoots.

I placed Scoots on the ground and looked back up to Daring Doo.

"Well... how about this..." She said as she flew away for a moment and then began walking back with a heavy looking box.

She was struggling a bit so I walked over and picked up the box like it was a feather. Causing her to look at me in confusion a bit but quickly subsided.

"Take these. And in return we hang out for a bit after my work here and you can answer some of my questions." She said as I placed the box next to Scoots.

Scoots carefully opened the top and as she did her eyes shot wide open. She slowly looked between me and Daring.

"T-These are... f-for m-me?" She said... out of breath.

Daring nodded. "Yup... enjoy em!"

Imminently Scoots shot up and hugged Daring. Who recoiled a bit but pat her back a bit. "Heheh... your welcome."

Scoots jumped off and went back to looking at the boxes contents. I turned to Daring.

"What was in there?" I asked.

She chuckled a bit. "First editions of the books." My eyes went wide.

"First editions? Oh god... RD's gonna rob me..." I mumbled under my breath.

I shook my head but before I could answer I heard another voice.

"Daring... what's taking so long! Lets get this star-" The voice stopped as I saw Spitfire round the corner and stop as she sees me.

"Well hello, I've heard a lot about you. Your a... DJ... right?" Spitfire said.

I nodded.

"Well..." She walks up to me and reaches out. "Nice to meet you... I'm Spitfire." She said a bit strangely with her eyes a bit half lidded.

'Uhhhhh....'

I reached out and grabbed her hoof and shook. "Call me CJ, It's nice to meet you too."

She nodded and stared at me for a few more moments. "So... got anything planned for tonight?" She said in the same strange voice.

"Actually I've go-"

"He is hanging out with me to answer some of my questions!" Daring said a bit defensively.

She slowly turns to me and gives me the same look Spitfire had given. "Heh... i didn't know you were a DJ..."

'...'

I shook my head and turned around and walked towards Scoots. "We came here to get a costume of the Shadow Bolt's or whatever. Any Idea to where that would be?"

Spitfire nodded and took off. A second later she came back with a signed costume. "Here you go... Signed it myself... Although it's meant for a filly... why would you..."

"I was buying it for Scootaloo here." I said, motioning to Scoots.

Spitfire handed me the costume and I grabbed it. As I did and she walked by me she whispered.

"What a kind... stallion..." As she brushed her tail across my face slightly.

'Ok a BIT to close for comfort.'

"Oh! Wow! Look at the time! I had better get going! C'mon Scoots, lets get back home." Scoots nodded and walked up beside me.

I put the costume over the box and walked up to the counter, Paid for the costume, and began walking to the door.

"Bye Spitfire! Bye Daring!" Called out Scoots as we left.

"By Scootaloo!" They shouted back. "...Bye CJ..." The shouted sending a bit of a shiver up my spine.

*****************

We made it back to the house and I placed the box down in my room. I turned to Scoots. "Will you be Okay here for a while?"

She took out a book happily and very carefully opened it. "Yup! Thanks for the books and stuff dad! Your the best!"

I swear my heart skipped a beat.

"N-No problem Scoots, I'll see ya in a bit!" I say as I leave the room.

"Bye dad!" She called back as I walked out of the house.

******************

I made it to the library in about 10 minutes.

'I've got a few questions I want to ask Twilight before I have to meet up with Daring... *Shiver*'

I walked up to the door and was about to knock.

'Wait... all those times she told me just to "go in" because its public...' I shrugged and got a devious smile.

I backed up a bit and looked straight at the door. I began to sprint towards the Library door.

"LEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY!!!"

I Trough the door open and charged in.

"JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN"-BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTSSSSSssssssss.....

Everything went black in an instant.

I hate magic

Chapter 34: I hate magic

Everything was completely black for what felt like a lifetime. After a while longer, I started to get my senses back. First my hearing...

"Why did you do that Twilight?" Asked a soft voice.

"I didn't mean to! I meant to use it on the mouse!" Said Twilight.

"Well... how long will he be like this?" Said the soft voice.

"I don't know Fluttershy, I need to do some research on the effects it has on larger beings..." Said Twilight.

Then I started to get my sense of sight back, but everything was beyond blurry, so I kept my eyes shut.

"Oh my... he's waking up." Said Fluttershy.

I began getting my sense of touch back....

"Do you think he is in any pain?" Said Fluttershy.

"I don't think s-" She was cut off almost immediately.

I felt a surge of unimaginable pain shoot through my body. Imagine being punched in the face while someone is stomping on you balls while getting paper cuts in the middle of your fingers x12.

"GRAAAAAAAAH!" I shouted through the pain.

I then felt something warm hit me in the chest and the pain go away instantly.

"Oh dear... I didn't think that would happen... that painkiller spell should last about an hour. Lets bring him in my room." Said Twilight.

A moment later I felt a warm sensation surround me and I was lifted off the floor. After about a minute I was set down on something soft.

"Fluttershy, hand me that blanket." A moment later a blanket was draped onto me.

"This is not good... I need to go and find out how long this will last." After that I heard hoof steps decreasing in volume until there was no sound.

Then I felt something get on the bed with me. I tried to open my eyes, but everything was still to blurry. I felt a hoof be placed on my chest.

"CJ.... CJ can you hear me?" Said Fluttershy.

I mustered all of my strength and was able to nod.

"Good, can you open your eyes?" I shook my head...

"Hm... well I want you to stay here and rest... maybe we can fix this in the morning..." She said.

I wanted to just get up and ask what had happened... but I still can't see let alone talk. As the hoof steps left the room I heard a door shut. Then silence.

'............ GRAAAA.... this is SOOOOOOOO boring.....'

Eventually I just started entertaining myself in my head until sleep finally took me.

*********************

>>>Perspective change: Twilight<<<

I was running around the library franticly looking for the book I had been reading not an hour ago.

"Ohhh where is it where is it!" I said as I searched.

Fluttershy flew down the stairs and flew to the other side of the library.

"Is this it?" She asked as she picked up a book.

I took a look at it for a moment. ".... Yes! It is! Here, give it to me."

Fluttershy tossed it over to me as I took it in mid air with my magic. I held it in front of me and began flipping through the pages.

"No... No.... No...... Definitely no.... No.... AH HA!" I said as I dug my face into the page.

"Shape and being transformation spell mark II.... It says that on small critters it can last up to about two weeks, and for anything larger.... depending on its size and weight, could last anywhere from one to five days. Judging by his height I would say probably three days." I finished.... Closing the book and placing it on a shelf.

"Three days? How will he stay like that for THREE days?" Said Fluttershy a bit concerned.

"Don't worry Fluttershy, He'll be fine."

"I hope your right Twilight...."

******************

>>>Perspective change: CJ<<<

I slowly began to wake up and to my surprise had no pain left. The only thing I could feel was a slight head ache. The sunlight was going through a window and landing right on my face. I rolled over to the left when I found I couldn't turn all the way over into the pillow.

'What the...'

Without opening my eyes, Still avoiding the light, I reached my hand up to my head. What I felt both shocked and confused me. I felt something sticking out of my head that felt like a bone.

'Wow... what the hell did I do to have a bone come out of my head like that... shouldn't I be like strapped down or something then?'

I continued to feel it with both hands until I noticed something strange about my hands. They weren't there. I went into panic mode a bit as my eyes shot open. I began staring at my hands trying to get my eyes to focus. From what I could see I had two greyish blotches of color with white on the ends in front of my face. I began blinking rapidly until they finally focused... though I wish they hadn't. Now in front of my face, there were two objects that appeared like hooves. I moved my right arm and saw the right one move as well.

'No... Nonononono... no... just no............ no.....'

I threw the covers off to look at myself. I was greyish colored with a white tatooish thing on my flank. Resting on top of that was a blue colored note object that seemed to be on fire. My tail and my mane were both black with white tips wherever the hair ended. As I looked at my mane I noticed something sticking from my head.

'....I-Is that....'

Realization struck as I noticed that sticking out of my head was indeed a horn. I continued to inspect myself over and over... each time coming to the same answer.

I was a fuckin pony.

A unicorn to be exact. After a few minutes of looking myself over and a few hits to the face to make sure I wasn't having some weird dream, I accepted (Sort of) That I was indeed a pony. I took in a deep breath and let out a long sigh. After a few moments of taking in breaths I calmed myself down. I edged off to the side of the bed. As I leaned off I had a split second for a thought to run through my mind.

'I don't know how to walk...' I thought as I face plant into the ground.

I let out a long groan as I lay there. A moment later the door burst open and Twilight came running in. She looked around very worried but when her eyes landed on me she began to laugh a bit.

"You tried to walk... didn't you..." She said snickering.

"Ha ha... very funny." I said a bit annoyed.

"Help me up." I asked with my hoof out.

Instead she lifted me up with her magic and placed me on the bed. I began nearing the edge again but got pushed to the center.

"No... you need to stay here until you are all better."

"Aw come on! Let me walk around town Twi!" I asked.

She shook her head.

"Pleeeeaaaasssse?" I said looking at her.

She shook again.

"Pleeeeaaaasssse please please please please please!" I said, while strangely I could feel my face changing shape... if that makes sense.

She took at look at me and her face changed to one of almost fighting. Finally she gave up and sighed.

"Fine... how did you learn to do that?" She asked looking at my eyes.

"Learn to do what?"

"Nevermind..."

I went to get up only to be held in place.

"Hey you said I could leave!" I shouted.

"Yes... but you don't even know how to walk yet!" She said a matter of factly.

I blushed a bit and nodded. "Oh... right...."

After nearly an hour of learning how to walk. I had finally made progress. I was able to stand.

"Ugh... finally!" Shouted Twilight.

"Hey! I'm not used to having four legs! Cut me some slack!" I shouted back.

She rolled her eyes and looked back at me.

"Alright, now take a step forward. One hoof at a time."

I nodded and looked down, I moved my right foreleg forward and placed it back down. I grinned like a complete idiot. I looked back up at Twilight who again rolled her eyes.

"...'Good' Now... Move your left hind leg." I nodded and began to move my left hind leg forward.

"BANG"

I faceplant for the hundredth time. I grunted in annoyance and got back up.

******************

After another three hours of learning how to walk, I could now do so without looking at my fee... er.... hooves...

"Good, you can now walk normally." Said Twilight.

I shot her a look causing her to smile and roll her eyes again. I followed her out of the room and towards the stairs. I hadn't even noticed what was going on until I was rolling down the stairs like a slinky. I reached the bottom and shook the ache from my head. I looked behind me up the stairs and saw Twilight facehoof. I stood up and walked towards the library door quickly.

"Oh... that reminds me... I was so distracted learning how to.... walk.... that I forgot to ask when this will wear off." I said smiling sheepishly.

Twilight looked up from a book she had already dug her face into.

"What? Oh... well, about three days." She said.

'Three days huh? Hm... Might as well enjoy it... oh! Maybe I can learn some magic! Wait... no.... would rather not blow anything up...' I shrugged and walked out the door.

Well... sort of.

As soon as I opened the door I saw a cyan Pegasus standing there looking at me.

"Oh! And who are you?" Said RD.

Before I could speak I found myself being inspected by the mare. I could say I felt a LITTLE weirded out. When she stopped she stood in front of me and looked at my eyes for a moment.

"Hm... I like you mane..." She said.

"T-Thanks... Yours is awesome too."

She nodded. "Hay ya it's awesome. It's about 20% cooler than any others." She said in a cocky tone.

"Rrrright...."

She stopped and looked at me. "Hm... where have I heard your voice before..." She said.

'Oh god... If she finds out who I am... She will never let me live down this moment.'

I started thinking of an answer. "I-I'm... uh.... ah..."

'hm.... OH!' "I-I'm.... Blaze!"

She raised an eyebrow. "Blaze?" She said.

"Yup... uh... Shadow.... Blaze...." I said.

'Shadow Blaze... wow... I really should have thought of a name sooner.'

"Shadow Blaze huh? Well I-" She was cut off when Twilight walked out of the Library door to see us.

"Hey C-" I pushed her inside and shut the door.

"Don't say my name!" I said in a loud whisper.

"Why not?" She whispered back.

"Because I know RD... she will bug me the rest of my human life if she found this out... Just call me Shadow Blaze."

"Shadow Blaze?" She repeated.

"I know... But I had to come up with it on the spot!" I said back.

She walked towards the door. "It's fine... I kinda like it." She said as she opened the door to see RD still standing there.

"Hey Rainbow... How's it goin?" Said Twilight.

RD looked at Twi then back to me. "Twilight, do you know this stallion?"

Twilight shook her head. "Nope, he just came here looking for a book." She said.

"Oh... then where's the book?" She said looking at me.

"I... uh... couldn't find it..." I said.

She stared at me for a moment longer then shrugged. "Whatever... I just wanted to tell you that we need your help setting up for nightmare night. It IS two days away."

'Oh shit... I forgot... well... guess I'm going as a pony...'

"Sure thing Rainbow!" Said Twilight.

They both began walking to the door, and I overheard something that made me blush slightly.

"So Is that stallion already taken or is he available?" RD said to Twilight.

'Oh god help me...'

When they left I took a few moments to recollect my thoughts.

1: I'm a pony.
2: I'm going to spend nightmare night as a pony.
3: I'm not sure how to tell Scoots about this.
4: I'm a pony.
5: It's gunna be a long three days.
6: I'm a unicorn...
7: I have to go to work tomorrow...
8: I'm a freaking pony...

Yup... sounds like a normal day in ponyville.'

I walked to the door and pushed it open. I stepped outside and took in a deep breath. I opened my eyes and I saw that all of the ponies that had been trotting around outside the library stopped to look at me. I gave a forced smile and waved.

"Hey everypony... nice day huh?" A few of them shrugged but all of them decided to walk away.

'Whew... I don't want attention like that... I would rather get these days over with and turn back into a human...'

I made my way through ponyville getting the occasional glace. But no matter how many stares I got, I was just happy none of them came from a certain mare.

'Pinkie Pie...'

I continued to trot through ponyville. Then my brain clicked on.

'Oh.... shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit'

I galloped through ponyville ignoring all the stares and made it to the doorway of the costume shop. I looked inside and saw two mares packing up.

'Oh good... I'm not late... oh crap... how am I gonna explain this...'

I shrugged and walked through the door. I walked up to daring and cleared my throat. he turned around and looked at me, as did Spitfire.

"Yes?" Said Daring.

"Uh... heheh.... it's me... CJ..." I said.

Spitfire just rolled her eyes. "Go away kid... you look nothing like him... this is just an excuse to hang out with Daring isn't it?"

"What? No!" I said back.

I looked back to Daring and saw her staring at my eyes. This went for a few moments longer then she spoke.

"Say something."

"....uh.... Hi?" I said confused.

"Yup.... it's CJ." Daring said.

Spitfire looked at her more confused than me. "How can YOU tell that?"

"Well... I'm an explorer, and an explorer has to remember everything about all of their encounters. He has the same color eyes and the same voice."

Spitfire turned back to me. "Now that you mention it... His voice does sound the same."

Spitfire began inspecting me like RD had done. "And wow... you turned out nicely." She said.

"W-Well... about that 'Hanging out'." I said to Daring... changing the subject.

"Oh... right... I have a lot of questions for you." She said back.

'Oh no... I should have stayed at the library.'

I nodded and all three of us walked out the door. Spitfire turned to me. "I got to go... I'll be here nightmare night, Hope to see you around.... Bye..." She said in a strange tone.

'Shiver'

I turned to Daring to find her staring at me. She instantly turns away. "Oh... um... ok... lets go get something to eat."

I nodded in agreement. We made our way to a restaurant but I didn't stop to check the sign. I had food on the brain. We walked in and up to a small podium with a white stallion who spoke in an accent.

"Good morning... and how shall we serve you tonight?" He asked looking at us.

"Oh... miss Daring... How nice to meet you... please, follow me."

We nodded and followed him to a table that was more separated from the rest. I sat down and picked up my menu. To tell you the truth... I was getting really sick of eating the same vegetables and only eggs every day.

"Hm... aw what the hell..." I muttered.

The waiter came back to the table after a few minutes. "Have you made your selections?"

"I'll have a daisy sandwich with a side of hay fries." Said Daring.

"Ya... I'll have the same."

He nodded and walked away. When he did I looked at Daring and she did the same. After a few minutes of awkward silence I decided to talk.

"So.... the questions?" I asked.

She snapped out of her trance and looked away. "Oh right..."

The night went on... we ate.... and we sat there for a total of two more hours. Her asking questions and me answering them right away.

"Do you have a mare friend?" She asked.

I hesitated for a moment. "Well, no I don't, but I am enga-" Before I could say 'Engaged' Daring spoke up.

"Really? You don't? Huh... well... it was nice meeting you. C ya soon!" She said As I payed the bill along with the tip.

She shot off giggling a bit.

'I know I had just been through one not to long ago but my gut says there is another tactical shitstorm inbound and it's gonna make one hell of a mess....'

I shook my head and left the restaurant making my way back home. Ready to just drop on the bed and just let sleep take me.

'Why did I have to get turned into a pony... Why is every mare acting so weird...' I thought as I walked.

'...'

'...'

'... I hate magic...' I thought as I continued through ponyville.

This is what he looks like!

Also, Here is his cutie-mark... for some reason it wouldn't show up on the pony, so I'll just show you here!

A big boo boo

Chapter 35: A big boo boo

It was getting late as I galloped through ponyville. The only thing running through my mind at this moment was how good it would feel to get into bed. I continued day(night)dreaming about this until I ran straight into somepony and we both went tumbling to the ground. After a few seconds of tumbling we came to a stop. I was laying on my back. I shook my head and looked up. What I saw were two bright blue eyes encased in a pink head.

'...Fuck....'

"Ohmygosh your a new pony in town! I have to introduce you to every pony and throw you a...." Then she let out a very loud and drawn out gasp and sped off.

"This.... is EXACTLY what I wanted to avoid...." I said as I got back up.

I shook myself to get the dust of and began galloping towards my house again. I finally reached the door. Still only thinking about sleeping. As I opened the door with my mouth a thought came to mind.

'How the fuck do I explain this to Scoots....' I thought.

'Hm.... maybe she is asleep.'

I crept up the stairs and listened into my bedroom. My hopes were smashed when I heard Scoots voice.

"So.... dad is a... pony?" Said a confused Scoots.

"Yes... but it is only temporary. It should wear off a day after Nightmare night." Said a soft voice.

"Alright..." Said Scoots.

Steps started coming towards the door. I began to panic before heard a voice again.

"Oh! And Fluttershy?" Said Scoots.

"Yes Scootaloo?" Said Fluttershy.

"I met Daring Doo and Spitfire today at the costume store!" Said Scoots.

"Oh? Really? That was nice." Said Fluttershy.

I heard steps retreat from the door and towards what I am sure is my bed.

"Ya! Dad also got me this!" Said Scoots, a moment later a barrage of noise ensued.

"CJ got you all of these? How much did they cost.... my.... they are even signed!" Said Fluttershy.

"My costume is signed by Spitfire too!" Said Scoots.

"Really? I hope CJ didn't spend everything he had..." Said Fluttershy.

"They did it for free!" Said Scoots.

"Oh...?"

"Ya! But it was kind of weird the way they kept looking at him... they looked a bit tired...." Said Scoots.

'Oh no...'

"...Oh....?" Said Fluttershy.

"Mmhm. Daring Doo gave me these books with the signatures for free if dad said she would have supper with him. She seemed pretty excited about seeing a human!"

I heard Fluttershy mumble something.

"Um... Scootaloo... did.... anything else happen?" Said an angry toned Fluttershy.

'Please say no, please say no, please say no!'

"Yup! They were really excited about dad being a DJ! They said they were really big fans and wanted to hang out some time. But I think the signing took a lot out of them. They looked super tired..." Said Scoots.

"What kind of... tired...."

"Hmm... now that I think of it... you usually look like that when you are around dad.... why?"

"Oh... nothing important..." Said Fluttershy.

I heard a stomp as somepony jumped off the bed and began stomping towards the door. I heard Fluttershy mumble something when she got to the door.

"You had better get used to staring at the ceiling in the hospital CJ... because when I'm done with you I'm go-" She stopped when she opened the door to see me standing there.

'Shit shit shit shit MOVE DAMMIT MOVE'

No matter how hard I tried I was frozen in place. An angry Fluttershy seemed more scary than anything I could possibly imagine at this moment.

"Oh... hello CJ.... how was... dinner?" Said Fluttershy with a bit of venom in her speech.

"I CAN EXPLAIN!" I yelled out.

She nodded. "I bet you could... come with me..." She said as she walked past me and down the stairs.

I turned to the bedroom and looked inside. Scoots was looking me up and down.

"Wow dad... you look awesome!" She said looking at my Cutie mark.

"Do you want to walk to sweet apple archers with me tomorrow!?" She said excitedly.

"If you work on getting to sleep now... sure." I said as she immediately ran and jumped into bed.

"Alright! Good night!" She said.

"Night." I said back. "I'll walk with you to Applejack's tomorrow." I said turning and walking down the stairs. "If I still have legs..." I mumbled.

I continued to walk downstairs careful not to turn into another human/pony slinky until I got to the living room. I looked around and saw Fluttershy sitting on the couch. She motioned for me to sit with her. So I did. I sat next to her after a few moments of awkwardly getting comfortable. When I did I smiled like a moron and turned to Fluttershy to have my smile fade. Fluttershy was staring straight at me. But not THAT kind of stare. The kind of stare one gives when they are studying something closely. After a moment she blinked and broke her focus.

"So?" She said flatly.

"...So...?"

"So... what happened.... with Daring?" She said.

"O-Oh... listen Shy... nothing happened.... I saw how they looked at me. I am just realizing now why they were." I said. (Not really.... I already knew what the stares meant.)

"I only agreed to the dinner so she could learn about humans and for the books for Scoots." I said. "And I promise you, NOTHING happened." I said.

Fluttershy continued to look at me before she smiled. She wrapped me in a hug which I returned. "I could never stay mad at you CJ." She said.

"Same with me Shy." I said back.

"You know if something happens somepony is going to the hospital right?" She said in a normal tone.

"Eeyup." I replied.

We broke the hug and she looked at me. "Scootaloo tells me you have something special planned for Nightmare night. What is it?" She asked very interested.

"Follow me and I'll show you." I said.

We began to sneak up the stairs and very queitly walked into my room. We both went on our back hooves and tip-hooved through the rooms floor. As we continued I stepped on a loose board.

"SQUEEEEEK!"

Scoots began to stir. we shot to the side of the bed and bent down. hiding our presence from Scoots. I heard some shuffling on the bed and then nothing. I slowly peeked over to see Scoots fast asleep. With a sigh of releife we got up and tip-hooved the rest of the way to the door of my DJ room. The place was sound proof and could not be heard from anywhere inside or outside the house unless inside the room itself. (Special orders to the builders. Don't want the music spoiled!) We opened the door and went in. Slowly closing it behind us. After a few moments of being sure we hadn't woken Scoots we both looked at each other thinking the same thing. We both jumped into the air and did a high-hoof. Then we walked to the DJ table.

Ok.... may have lied.... a bit.... okay maybe a lot..... whatever just read the next part... because it actually went like this.

We opened the door and began to sneak in when I tripped on something in the darkness and slammed my face into the ground.

"GRAHHHHHHH!" I shouted out holding my snout.

Scoots woke up and looked over to see me holding my face and Fluttershy holding her sides.

"Uh.... whats going on?" She said.

I shook my head a bit trying to wear down the pain. When it finally did I looked to Scoots. "I was going to show Shy here what I had in store for the Nightmare night celebration. But since your up... you might as well see too." I said motioning to the door.

She let out a big grin and ran up to my side. After Fluttershy calmed herself down we all walked into the DJ room. I went up to the table and to my I-Pod. I switched to my playlist (Called DJ'd songs... original right?) and flipped to the last song.

"Ready?" I said to them.

They all shook their heads. "Alright then, lets do this!" I said as I hit play.

As the tunes blasted through the speakers they immediately started smiling and bobbing their heads.

'I am so ready for this Nightmare night... the shitstorms have past and its time to enjoy myself!' I thought to myself.

Nnope!

Nightmare-eve

Chapter 36: Nightmare-eve

I began to wake to the feeling of jumping. I slowly began to open my eyes to see Scoots bouncing up and down on the bed beside me.

"Hurry up dad! it's time to get up! Come on!" She was saying.

"Alright I'm up I'm up...." I grumbled.

I shook my head and leaned forward stretching. I rubbed my face with my hands. Tried to.

"Oh ya... I'm still a pony..." I said aloud.

"C'mon! Hurry! It's time to go to Sweet apple acres!" She said.

"Ok calm down their little mini-pinkie. We'll get there." I said, messing her mane a bit.

She giggled and hopped out of bed. After a few moments I jumped out of the bed and landed on my hooves. I walked towards the door getting used to walking on fours again. I awkwardly went down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"You want breakfast?" I asked.

"Naw I'm ok." She said.

"You sure?"

"Mmmhmm."

"Alright then." I said.

*****************

As we walked towards ponyville I noticed a lot of stares. All at me. I used to be able to stand them. But these stares were more.... hungry.... I got fed up with it. I saw big mac in the town market selling apples off a cart. Me and Scoots walked towards him. When I got near he noticed me and raised an eyebrow.

"Can I help ya'll?" He asked.

"Hey Big mac, It's me.... CJ.... one word.... magic.... nuff said."

He nodded. "Eeyup."

"Well... I wanted to ask you...." I said my voice getting lower. "Whats up with everypony in town... they won't stop staring at me now...." I half whispered to him.

"Hm... well.... judging by the time of year it is. This is when MOST mares go into estrus. The ones that don't go in later or earlier on... usually the ones that get hit the worst." He said.

'Like Shy...' I thought.

"Thanks Big mac.... that explains A LOT. I'll catch you later hopefully. We are headed to the farm now. C ya later." I said beginning to walk away.

"Eeyup!" He shouted back.

As we walked Scoots tapped my foreleg. I looked down to her.

"You could've asked me you know! I may be a filly but I am still old enough to know this stuff!" She said.

"Heheh... alright then." I said.

We continued to walk towards the farm. As we neared we could see yellowish and whitish blurs running around. As we came up to the barn we noticed it was Applebloom and Sweetie belle. They waved at Scoots who ran towards them. After a moment they noticed me.

"Who's that?" They said pointing to me.

"That's-" I cut her off.

"My name is Shadow Blaze. I'm CJ's best friend. Nice to meet you two!" I said.

Scoots raised an eyebrow at me and I mouthed "Tell you later." Which she nodded to.

"Shadow Blaze? That's a cool name... what do you do?" Asked Sweetie belle.

"Well. I am in to music. But I'll be right back. I have to talk to someone right now." They all nodded.

I began to walk towards the apple family house only to be stopped. "Hey... Blaze...!" Shouted Scoots.

"Yes Scootaloo?" I shouted back.

"Be back here in ten minutes! We want to show you something!" She shouted.

"Alright, c ya then!" I said continuing towards the house.

When I got there I saw Applejack talking to a certain grey mailmare.

"Are you sure you don't know where he is? He wasn't home and I haven't seen him at work in a while." Said Ditzy.

"Nope... sorry Ditzy.... Ah'm afraid Ah haven't..." Applejack said back.

"Okay.... if you see him let me know!" She said.

"Will do!" Said Applejack.

Ditzy turned to see me walking towards the porch.

"Hey there. Haven't seen you around here before! What's your name!" She said to me.

I looked around quickly and looked back to her.

"It's me CJ."

"CJ!?!?!" She shouted.

"SHHH!" I said putting a hoof on her mouth. "Keep your voice down. I don't want to many people to know... all you need to know is it was a twilight gone wrong spell. And this is why I haven't been to work lately." I said.

"So that's whats been goin' on." Said Applejack as she stood next to ditzy.

I nodded. "Yup... so I hope you understand..." I said.

She nodded as well. "I understand...." She said jumping in the air.

"Why is hiring a human seem like a job on it's own?" She mumbled flying away.

I looked at Applejack to see her inspecting me. "So..."

"So whats yer name?" She said.

"Well... my pony name right now is Shadow Blaze." I said.

She nodded. "Hm... how long is this supposed to last?" She said.

"Three days... so today is the first. So.. ya..." I said.

"Well... you know Ah can't lie for ya'll...." She said.

"*Sigh* I know... Plus I'm gunna have to reveal myself to everypony soon anyway..." I said sadly.

"... why's that?" She asked.

"Well... I have a song I want to present on Nightmare night.... and I don't want to have to pretend to be some OTHER DJ...." I said.

She nodded. "Ah guess yer right... I'll just try to avoid talkin bout yer real identity then..." Said Applejack.

"Thanks AJ... anyway... the 'Crusaders' wanted to show me something. So I'll catch ya later." I said walking towards the trees.

"Eeyup." She said.

I walked through the rows of trees. As I did they got more and more clustered. Like the farther I walked, the more the trees seemed to not fit into normal rows and just site in random spots. As I walk I hear some commotion. I walk towards it and notice a treehouse. I walk towards it and walk up the steps. I knock on the door causing it to go silent inside. A moment later the door opened.

"Come in!" Said Sweetie belle.

I nodded and crouched down to fit in the doorway. I got in and stood up. I looked around. Looked exactly as the show depicted.... nothing else... I honestly expected some kind of crazy wierd giant contraption they made that turned out to be something like a laser pointer or something. I sat down as the three fillies came up to me.

"Hey there CJ!" Said Applebloom.

I growled and looked at scoots who gave a sheepish smile.

"Heheh...." She said.

I rolled my eyes. "So you all know then?" I asked causing them to nod.

"Alright then.... but don't tell anypony.... this is a secret till tomorrow!" I said.

They all nodded again. "Alright... what did you want to show me?" I asked.

"We found this weird shiny thing that seemed kind of heavy." Said Sweetie belle.

"Ya. It kinda looked like Ah piece of metal, but had a weird picture in the middle." Said Applebloom.

"Hm... where is it?" I asked.

"It's in the seceret compartment." Said Scoots.

"Are you girls sure it was smart to touch it if you didn't know what it was?" I asked.

They looked at their hooves. "Well... ah thought ya might know what it is." Said Applebloom.

"*Sigh...* Show me it." I said.

The three of them backed up and grabbed a floorboard. They pulled up and it easily removed four boards.

'Okay... THAT'S new...'

After they set it aside they reached and and pulled out....

'No fucking way.....'

"Do ya know what it is?" Said Applebloom.

"ja brabrakemt...." I mumbled....

"Yer whatnow?" Said Applebloom.

"M-M-My.... laptop.... WHERE DID YOU FIND IT?" I asked grabbing it and setting it on the floor in front of me.

"We found it in a box that was delivered to us by Ditzy. And... what's a... laptop....?" Said Sweetie belle.

"It's a computer...." I said in awe.

"Rrrrright.... it also came with this... but we couldn't read it... so we thought it was alien!" Said Scoots.

"Alien eh?" I said.

They chuckled a bit as they handed me a piece of paper. I looked at hit for a moment and shook my head smiling.

'Pig Latin...' I thought.

"Girls this is written in eng- er... equestrian... but Pig Latin." I said.

"Ah pig wrote it?" Said Applebloom.

"What? No! It's.... nevermind... here I'll read it." I said back to her.

I cleared my throat and began.

"Dear CJ;

Here is your laptop. I found it while.... trying to 'do' something between our realms...."

'Uh....'

"So I am sending it to you as compensation for what I did to you with that ki-...." I stopped before I said kiss.

I skimmed through a bit. "Blah Blah Blah... Yadda yadda yadda... Ah! "So please enjoy this gift from me! It has limited acces to the internet... you'll understand when you see it.... and it won't die.... have fun.

Yours; Princess Celestia

Ps: I want you to come visit the castle. I have something of great importance to show you."

As I finished I re-read the Ps message.

'I wonder what that is.... meh I'll find out later today. I also need to ask what the hell she was doing going to my world anyway!'

I looked up to the three fillies who were looking at me in anticipation.

"You want to see it turned on huh?" I said to them.

They all nodded excitedly and ran next to me and sat down.

"Alright then. here we go... I cant type much... hooves n' all... but I can still show you what It looks like." I said.

I opened it and the moment I did I heard "Oooh" and "Ahh" So I rolled my eyes.

"Heheh... it isn't even ON yet...." I said laughing.

I pressed the power button on the alienware laptop. In an instant it springs to life. Then more "Oooh's" and "Ahh's" Errupt.

As the screen went to the desktop I saw the image of Rainbow Dash performing the sonic rainboom and flying at the camera show up. I panicked a bit. (Here is the pic below so you know what I mean.)

They all gasped. "Wow! You have Rainbow dash doing that on there!?" Said Scoots.

I chuckled a bit. "No... that's a wallpaper. I can change it to whatever I want... Thats what my screen looks like when... I don't have anything running on it." I explained.

"Why would somepony run on it?" They asked.

"That's not what- Never mind.... I have to go anyway. Thank you all SOOOO much for giving me this!" I said.

"I will try to make it up to you. How about... you three can come up on stage tomorrow and help me with the equipment and whatnot. Be my helpers for the Nightmare night concert?" I asked.

They gasped simultaneously. "Really? We can?" They said together.

"Eeyup." I replied.

They started hopping around like... well.... little fillies. "So I'll c y'all later... Scoots... don't be to late to get back home." I said causing her to nod.

I walked out of the treehouse and stretched. I had the laptop in my mouth. And it felt weird carrying that and even weirder getting so many stares and confused faces. I made it to the treehouse.

'I think Twi may be interested in this....' I thought to myself.

I knocked on the door. I heard her yell from inside. "Just come in! It's public!" She said.

"Ya right! I'm not doin THAT again!" I shouted back.

Moments later the door opened. "Hey C- Whats that?" She said.

"Something you may like." I said back.

I walked in and sat down at a table motioning for her to sit beside me. Once she did I opened the laptop.

"Remember how I said we were advanced at tech n' stuff?" I said.

She nodded.

"Well... this here is a laptop.... one of the most advanced pieces of tech we have." I said causing her eyes to widen.

"Really? It's so small though." She said.

"Well... the computers we make can be very small now and be just more useful. Pretty cool to me." Then she began laughing.

"What's so funny?" I asked looking at her holding her sides on the ground.

"Ya right... THAT a computer? Quit pulling my leg." She said giggling.

"So you have computers then?" I said.

"Yes... I have a very advanced one in the basement. Compared to this thing.... well.... this is no more than scrap..." She said.

"O-RLY?" I said back.

She nodded.

"I bet that this 'thing' can do a thousand times more than that giant hunk of metal in the basement...." I began.

She raised an eyebrow.

"And...."

She leaned in.

"Have more information than this whole library holds put together ten fold." I said.

She exploded into laughter. "Right.... THAT thing has THAT much information? HAHAHAHAHA"

I pressed the power button causing it's power up tone to play. She immediately shut up and sat upright at the table. When the desktop image showed her eyes widened. "I-I-Is t-that...."

"Eeyup.... never thought you would see a rainboom at that angle huh?" I said.

She shook her head.

"Well... thats just a picture... wait till you see the videos.... of... well.... anything..." I said.

She turned to me. "Videos? Like movies?" She asked.

"Yes... you have movies?" I asked.

"Yes... but they have no sound and they are black and white." She said.

"Haha... wow...." I said.

"Why?"

"In my day and age videos can go up to unbelievable quality and are full color with perfect sound." I said.

She didn't move.

"So... are you ready to see the internet?" I said.

"..."

"...Twi....?"

".....THUMP!" She hit the floor HARD.

"Uh... wow.... ok... I'll be going then...." I said picking up the Laptop with my mouth and walking to the door.

As I got there the door opened to reveal none other than Celestia. I bowed immediately.

She chuckled a bit and placed a hoof on my shoulder. "It's ok CJ..." She said low.

I felt the Laptop disappear from my mouth. I was about to ask when she began talking. "I sent it to your home. But for now... you must come to my castle.... quickly...." She said strangely.

"U-Um... O-Ok...." I said as I walked out of the library.

She walked me to a carriage pulled by two pegasi. We got in and we took off.

"So uh... what's going on at the castle...." I said.

"Oh... lets just say... we need you to do something for Luna and me... something.... very important...." She said even more strangely.

'About that tactical shitstorm I mentioned earlier....'

'Oh shush now... it won't be that bad....'

Filling the Schedule

Chapter 37: Filling the Schedule

I was visibly shaking as the carriage flew towards Canterlot. I kept noticing Celestia was constantly taking looks at me, making me more and more nervous.

"What's wrong CJ?" Asked Celestia in a calming manner.

"N-Nothing...." I said back.

Celestia nodded back. We continued towards Canterlot. The trip felt like an eternity. Finally we landed somewhere at the castle. Me and Celestia got out and began walking down a corridor.

"So.... what did you need anyway?" I asked.

"Well.... this is mostly for Luna's sake." She said.

"Luna?"

She nodded. We continued walking until we made it to a set of double doors. They were dark blue with star patterns covering it. I looked back to Celestia.

"I-Is this..."

"Yes, her bedroom." She said, motioning for me to enter.

I swallowed my nervousness and pushed the doors open, walking inside. They immediately encase in blue energy and close behind me. I look back ahead of me and what I see I cannot comprehend.

Pictures of me (Human form) was EVERYWHERE. And I mean everywhere. And they all said DJ D1sASt3r on them. At first I was scared, but then began to calm down.

'She is just a fan... oh thank god...'

I heard hoof steps. I looked towards them and saw Luna standing there looking confused. She looked me up and down.

"Who are you? Why are you in my bedroom?" She said looking a bit embarrassed I saw her room.

I looked between her and the pictures. "I-I'm... uh... C-CJ....." I said preparing for the worst.

She looked more confused. "CJ? How is that you?" She said.

"Twilight.... missed... with her magic." I said.

"I see." She said back.

There was an awkward silence. So... I decided to break it as best I could.

"So... I see your a fan...." I said motioning around the room.

"Yes I-" Then she notices all of the pictures. "EEP!" She shouts.

There was a bright light. When It faded I was standing on green grass. I looked around and saw it was now night time. I was in the same field I had first fought the shadow dick. I could see ponyville in the distance.

"Sorry you had to see that...." Said a calming voice.

I jumped a bit and turned around to see Luna. Even in the middle of the night I could see her blush.

"Wasn't that bad...." I said back.

She stared at me for a moment. "Ok... maybe it was...."

She shrugged. "Well, I am mad at Tia for that... but I wish to ask you something...." She said taking a step closer.

"Yes?" I said.

"Well... i wanted to know..." She said taking another step.

I began getting nervous.

"If you could... maybe..." Another step.

She was now right in my face. Looking at my eyes.

"Could you come and perform for me and Canterlot... Next Galloping Gala...?"

My heart did a back flip in the release of nervousness...

"Hm.... uh... er... uh.... ah..." I began saying.

She began hopping up and down. "Oh pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasePLEEEAAASSSSE!" She said while hopping.

"Hm... alright...." I said smiling.

She lunged forward and threw a bone crushing hug around me. "Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!!!! If there is ever ANYTHING I could do for you! Don't hesitate to ask!" She said tightening the grip.

"I... need to breath.... to BE a DJ..." I chocked out.

She gasped and released her grip. "Sorry!"

I fell down getting my breath back. "It's ok.... no harm done..." I said as I stood back up.

She nodded. "Oh this is so wonderful!" She said.

"That reminds me... I made a song I want you and Celestia to come and listen to tomorrow, You will all love it." I said.

"Really!?" She said.

"Yup... and actually, there is something I would like you to do." I said.

Her eyes widened. I went up to her ear and whispered in her ear the plan. She nodded. "Of course. I'll get Zecora." She said.

I nodded as well. "Alright, see you soon, also, you wouldn't mind teleporting me back home... would you?" I asked.

She nodded. "No problem." Her horn began to glow and I appeared in my home.

'Hm... being a unicorn must effect how it feels to teleport.... because I don't feel anything... usually it's makes me want to throw up'

I shrugged and realized I was in my bedroom. I looked around and saw that Scoots was sleeping. I walked into my DJ room so I can make final adjustments. I saw my laptop sitting on the table.

'That will make things SO much easier'

I walked to the table and started with the music.

****************

I slowly awoke to the feeling of jumping. I peeked an eye open to see Scoots hopping up and down on the bed again.

"Are you my alarm clock now?" I asked.

She giggled a bit. "You bet! Come on! today is the day!" She said.

I nodded and got up.

*********************

Me and Scoots left the house and made our way into ponyville. I noticed a lot of commotion the the town square. When I got there I saw lots of ponies setting up the stage. I walked towards it.

"Getting ready for the Nightmare night concert?" I asked one of the builders.

"Yup.... DJ D1sAsT3r Is going to play!" He said.

"Yup... you sound really excited." I asked.

"I am... I am based in Manehatten. So I couldn't really ever go to a concert." He said. "I hope I get to meet him. I heard he is the human."

I chuckled a bit. "Yes he is, and I have the feeling... you will meet him." I said walking away.

I noticed Mayor mare watching the set up, so I walked over there.

"Hey Mayor, what are tonight's plans?" I asked.

She looked at me confused for a moment then answered. "We are going to have games and such. When It gets dark enough we will have our towns DJ perform." She actually Squee'd after that. "We then announce the winners of the costume contest after the.... fireworks show." She said with a bit of disgust.

I raised an eyebrow. "Whats wrong with fireworks?" I asked.

She shook her head. "We could only find one unicorn willing to do them..." She said.

"And.... who's that?" I asked.

She paused for a moment. "...Trixie..."

The great and powerful?

Chapter 38: The great and powerful?

My eyes widened. "Trixie? You mean... the 'Great and powerful' Trixie?" I said.

She nodded. "Yes... That one..."

I thought for a moment.

'Trixie huh? Hm.... Maybe I shou-' My thoughts were cut off when the mayor began speaking.

"So... on a different subject.... who are you? I have never seen you before." The mayor asked.

"Oh... I am Shadow Blaze. CJ's best bud." I said.

"I guess that explains why you have Scootaloo with you." She said looking at Scoots.

"Yup... well nice meeting you..." I said waving as I walked away.

"Trixie is back? She almost destroyed all of ponyville last time!" Said Scoots.

I decided to change the subject. "So... Scoots... how has training with the flying been going?" I asked.

She looked up and me and smiled. "Great! Look at this!" She said.

She jumped in the air and began hovering. She jained height and became level with my face. She did a few circles and landed again.

"It feels awesome to fly. I just need a bit more practice! I cant wait to be able to fly wherever whenever I want." She said excitedly.

"Well... I'm proud of ya." I said smiling.

We continued walking until something caught my eye. I looked to my left and saw just outside ponyville was a colorful explosion. I turned to Scoots.

"Why don't you go and play with your friends... I'll be right back." I said.

She nodded. "Ok, I'll be at the concert then!" She said.

I nodded and she ran off. I turned towards the exit of ponyville and began galloping. After a minute I could see the explosions being set off by a blue unicorn. I walked up behind her.

"Your Trixie.... correct?" I said.

She shot off 5 fireworks with her magic and jumped in the air. "EEP!"

I took a step back. "Sorry sorry... didn't mean to frighten you. I just wanted to say hi." I said sticking out my hoof.

She looked at it for a moment before cautiously reaching hers out and shaking it. (Shaking hooves is WEEEEIIIIRRRD)

"Trixie wishes to know what you would like?" She said.

"Nothing, just wanted to say hi." I said.

She looked at me curiously. "Trixie doesn't get many pony that are nice to her. Most are mean."

I shrugged. "Well... what brings you to ponyville." I asked.

"Trixie is in charge of tonight's fireworks show." She said.

"Really? I heard you were a magician." I said.

"Trixie was... until she was made fun of and run out of town..." She said sadly.

I walked forward and placed a hoof on her shoulder. "It's not that bad. But if you were embarrassed so bad, why did you want to come back?" I asked.

She looked up with a few tears in her eyes. "Trixie heard something about a human. And how he became a DJ. Trixie wanted to see this for herself..." She said smiling.

"Well... unfortunately he is not a human at the moment." I said taking a step back.

She gave me a confused look.

"I'm a pony right now..." I said.

Her eyes widened. "Oh my! Trixie is not ready! Her hair is a mess, please give Trixie time to-" I cut her off.

"It's fine. You look fine. Just call me CJ by the way." I said kindly.

She smiled with a slight blush. "So, you are the human? But how?" She asked.

"Well.... there is a unicorn named Twilight...." I began... causing her to shrink down a bit.

"Oh right... she is the one who showed you up. But hey, she isn't perfect at magic...." I said trying to cheer her up.

She looked at me curiously. "She misfired her spell and it hit me.. I'm stuck like this until after tomorrow..." I said.

A few moments of silence ensued until I saw her fall to the ground and start rolling around, laughing her flank off.

"Yea yea.... funny funny...." I said.

She got up and wiped a tear from her eyes... "My... Trixie has not laughed like that in ages...." She said looking back at me.

"Hehe.... anyway..." I said looking at the sun. "It's about lunch time. Have you eaten?" I said.

She looked at the ground. "Trixie has eaten very little. Trixie had no money for food. She has not had any customers." She said.

I shook my head. "Ok... that's not right... come with me." I said grabbing one of her hooves and pulling her with me.

"B-But T-Trixie is not hungry!" She said.

Before she could protest I stopped at the sound of her stomach. I gave her a deadpan look. "Okay... maybe a little." She said smiling sheepishly.

We continued to walk into ponyville. As we did we got a lot of stares. 90% of them directed at Trixie. As we walked Trixie hid herself behind her mane and me.

"Oh come on, don't mind them, they stare at me all the time and I just ignore it." I said.

"Y-Yes... but those are stares of curiosity. T-Trixie gets stares of hate and anger...." She said sadly.

I sighed. We got to a restaurant and went inside. We sat down at a table and waited for our orders. Trixie immediately put her head down on the table. A moment later a waiter came along.

"May I take your order sir?" He asked.

"I would like a daisy sandwich..." I said.

He nodded and marked it off on his checklist with his magic. "Alright... and for th-" He stopped when he saw Trixie.

"Oh... it's you." He said angrily.

Trixie put her head down again.

"What would... you want...." He said.

"Trixie would like the sandwich too...." She said.

He nodded and walked away. I rolled my eyes. "Trixie, bring your head up."

She lifted her head and I could see tears in her eyes. "Don't listen to what other ponies say about you. I know what happened. other than the boasting, you did nothing wrong. It was those two other ponies.... snips and snails... who brought the ursa. NOT you." I said.

She wiped away the tears and looked away. "Perhaps you are right...." She said.

I nodded. "Now cheer up... and enjoy your day with DJ D1sAsT3r!" I said to her striking a cheesy pose.

She giggled a bit at my antics then our food arrived. before I could take a bite I felt something touch my shoulder. I turned around and looked around and saw nothing. I looked down and saw a small colt.

"Hello there?" I said.

"Hi! My name is Pip! I heard you know DJ D1sAsT3r?" He said excitedly.

I shook my head and smiled.

'I said that way too loudly...'

I looked over to Trixie who was half done the sandwich. She just smiled and shrugged. I looked back down to Pip.

"Yes I do, why?" I said.

"Because I wanted to know if I could maybe get his autograph!" Said Pip.

"Sure why not. After the song he performs at nightmare night, walk up to him and ask him. Bring your friends if you like." I said.

"Awesome! Thank you so much mister!" He said as he ran away.

I chuckled and looked back to Trixie who was looking at me. I shrugged. "Kids...." I said.

As we both finished eating we made our way back to the place she was practicing. Talking about random adventures. And how most of the time she had to live in the Everfree. As we got to her practicing grounds, we stopped.

"Trixie thanks you. She has not had so much fun in a long time. Most ponies are mean to Trixie now." She said smiling.

I nodded. "No problem, also, how much are they paying you to perform?" I asked.

"They are paying me 25 bits." She said.

I shook my head. "That's it? Jeez..." I said reaching into a pocket I didn't know I had.

I pulled out three gold bits and offered them. "Here, take these." I said.

She looked at the amount I was handing her and she looked back. "Oh my... Trixie is alright.... 25 bits is-"

"No... I saw how hard of a time you have had. Take these. And don't hesitate to ask for help if you ever need it. My house is near Fluttershy's just outside the Everfree. The least a friend could do." I said.

She looked at the bits and then back to me. She took them and put them in her pocket she apparently has. She then shoots forward and... hugs me?

"Trixie thanks you so much... Trixie had never had a friend before in her life. Thank you so much...." She said hugging me.

I was caught off guard at first but recovered quickly. I patted her on the back. "No problem Trixie.... nopony deserves to be treated like that." I said.

She broke the hug and wiped a tear from her eyes. "Trixie must get back to work now. She hopes to see you later."

I nodded. "You will." I said walking away while waving.

Then a thought hit me. I turned towards her. "Wait.... Trixie..." I said causing her to look back at me.

"You said you were living in the Everfree?" I said. She nodded.

"Hm... stop by my house tonight. Alright?" I said.

She nodded again after a bit of hesitation. "Why?" She asked.

"You'll see...." I said as I walked off.

>>>Perspective change: Trixie<<<

I watched as CJ as he walked off.

'Why was he so kind to Trixie... Trixie doesn't deserve such a friend....' I thought.

'Perhaps.... perhaps It is time I said how sorry I was for all of my mistakes...' I thought as I watched CJ.

Nightmare Night

Chapter 39: Nightmare Night

As I walked through Ponyville I saw the town's square has the concert stage finished. I smiled and made my way to the library. When I got there I knocked on the door.

"Ugh... Just co-" Twilight began.

"Don't even say it." I said from the other side.

The door opened and there stood an annoyed Twilight, wearing her star swirled costume again. "You know you can come in whenever... just don't burst in like before." She said.

I put on the best surprised face I could. "ME? Not do things over the top?! Preposterous!" I said.

She shook her head and stepped aside. I walked ina dn she shut the door behind me.

"So... what brings you to the library." She said.

"Oh nothing, I just wanted to see if you were ok." I said.

She raised an eyebrow. "Ok.... why?" She asked.

"Because after I showed you the computer you passed out.... remember?" I said.

She blushed. "Oh... right... sorry... I just couldn't get around how something so small could have so much information." She said.

I nodded. "Yup, you can use it whenever... well... when I turn into a human... can't push the buttons with hooves." I said.

She nodded. "Ok... anything else?" She said.

"Yes actually.... I ran into the unicorn in charge of the fireworks today." I said.

She raised an eyebrow. "Oh? And who is that?" She said.

"Her name w-" I was cut off at a knocking on the door.

"One sec." Twilight said rolling her eyes.

She used her magic to open the door and her eyes went wide. She watched as Trixie came walking in to the room blushing mad. She stopped in front of me and Twilight. I had a confused look and Twilight looked like she wanted to see death.

"What are YOU doing here...." Said Twilight.

Trixie's ears went back a bit. "T-Trixie w-wanted to come and apologize for her actions...." She said.

Twilight immediately lightened up and had a surprised look grace her features. "Apologize?" She repeated.

Trixie nodded. "Trixie is really sorry for all of the boasting... Trixie hopes you can see that she never meant to really harm anypony.... and the ursa minor...." She began.

Twilight nodded. "I know... that was not entirely your fault."

Trixie looked up with a glimmer of hope in her eyes. "Does this mean you forgive Trixie?"

Twilight nodded. "I do yes... but you may need to work harder to get the others to think so too...." She said.

Trixie nodded. "Yes Trixie knows. If it wasn't for CJ here... Trixie would still be back in the fields silently regretting her decisions."

Twilight turned to me.

"Remember the firework pony?" I said, She nodded.

I motioned to Trixie. Twilight let out an "Ooh" and turned to Trixie.

"Well... that makes sense... you are great with pyrotechnics." Said Twilight.

The rest of the day we spent talking about random things and laughing with each other. Trixie looked like she was absolutely enjoying every moment of it. But she kept looking back to me...

*********************

Twilight, Trixie and I made it to the town square. when we got there it was already pretty dark out. We saw lots of ponies playing games and such and having a good time. I turned to Trixie and Twilight.

"I'll probably have to before soon, so you two go and have some fun." I said.

they nodded and walked off together. I turned and looked at the crowd. It looked like everypony had showed up that was in town. I felt something tap me on the shoulder. I turned around and saw two mares looking at me.

"Oh hi daring, Hey Spitfire... what are you two doing here?" I asked.

"We decided to stop by and watch your concert. How have you been?" Asked Spitfire.

"Pretty good... other than the transformation thing." I said.

They chuckled a bit until I got an idea. "Hey girls, can you do something for me?" I asked.

They looked at each other and shrugged. "Sure why not."

I nodded. "Good, wait here." I said as I ran off.

I began searching the crowd. It didn't take long to spot a rainbow. I walked up to RD and smiled.

"Hey RD." I said.

She turned around and smiled, she was wearing the shadow bolt costume again.

"Hey Blaze, what's up?" She asked.

We both hoof bumped (So awesome!) and I shrugged. "Oh nothing..." I said in a strange tone.

She raised and eyebrow. "Alright, what did you do?"

I looked back at her. "What would you do to personally hang out with Spitfire right now and Daring Doo." I said.

She gasped. "Y-You didn't...." She said.

I nodded. "Follow me." I said as she smiled widely and flew right above me.

As we neared Spitfire and Daring Doo I would guess RD saw them because she let out a loud "SQUEE"

They both turned and looked at me and smiled.

"Hey girls, I want you to meet a friend of mine, Rainbow dash." I said pointing to the mare that was now beside me.

"She is a big fan of you both, and she was wondering if you would like to hang out?" I said for her.

They both shrugged. "I don't see why not." Said Spitfire.

Spitfire walked forward and looked at RD. "Your the one who won the best flier award and did the sonic rainboom at the wedding... right?" She asked.

RD nodded slowly. Daring Doo shot forward. "Really? You did the sonic rainboom? I have been looking for the pegasus who did that for like EVER! Tell me what it was like!" She said pulling out a notebook.

'She is like a freaking pegasus Twilight.'

RD slowly turned her head to me and I could see her jaw on the floor. I silently chuckled to myself. I was about to say something when I heard mayor mare on the speakers.

"Now... we would like to ask our DJ for the day to come up and perform his show for tonight!" She said.

I turned back to RD "Looks like they are calling for me on stage, have a good time!" I said as I walked away.

I could hear RD behind me yelling. "Wait... CJ? CJ THAT'S YOU?!"

I shook my head and got to the stage. I began walking up it hearing all of the cheering. Once I got to the mic they all went silent and stared at me confused.

"Now... I know you are all thinking... 'He's not the DJ!' But I am here to tell you... That yes.... I am." I said.

They looked even more confused. One shouted out. "But we thought CJ was performing!?"

I chuckled a bit. "I AM CJ."

They all started whispering around and looking at each other.

"Allow me to explain... Twilight.... spell... wrong..." I said summing it up.

I heard them all let out "Oooh's" So I nodded.

"Don't worry... after tomorrow night.... I'll be back to myself! But without further a due... Lets get this thing started!" I said causing the cheering to get louder than before.

I walked over to the other side of the stage where the table was and as I did Zecora walked into the center of the stage. She nodded to me and I nodded back. She took out some green powder and blew it out of her hoof. It formed a small cloud. And walking out of the cloud was Luna, Disguised as Nightmare moon. All of the ponies gasped in shock. I looked at Luna and she nodded back. She jumped in the air and flew over all of the ponies. While doing so the night skies stars glowed even brighter and then turned a shade of gold. All of the Ponies let out more "Ohhh's" And "Aahhh's"

Luna landed in the front row somewhere. All of the other ponies were cautious at first but settled after a few moments. They all lay their eyes on me (Including Luna). I flicked the table on and put my mouth to the mic.

"Everypony ready?" I said.

They all cheered.

"I said... I Everypony READY?!" I yelled.

They cheered louder. I smiled and looked down at the table. I plugged in my I-Pod I had in my hidden pocket I STILL didn't know I had. And hit play. (Listen to this as you read)

I let the music play for about 40 seconds before I began singing.

During the pause I gave myself time to figure out how my voice had changed.

'That sounded great.... but how did I....'

I noticed a glare at the top part of my view. I looked up and it moved too. Then it hit me. I was using magic to change my voice.

'I hadn't even noticed I had been using it.... oh well... this is great!' I smiled as I began singing after the pause finsihed.

During the final pause I looked around at the crowd. they were all smiling widely. But none cheering as they wanted to hear everything. I looked at Luna who was just slack jawed. I noticed Trixie hopping up and down like a school filly. I smiled knowing they had enjoyed it.

When the song finished I began getting off stage. As I did I was swamped by colts and fillies. The first was Pip.

"Wow CJ! I didn't know you were a pony now!" He said.

I nodded. "Yup... and I owe you guys some autographs." I said.

After a few minutes of signing (Hard to do with mouth but I went really slow and careful) I walked towards Luna who still had not taken her eyes off the stage. I walked up beside her and tapped her shoulder causing her to jump.

"EEep! Oh... it's you CJ... THAT.WAS.AMAZING!" She said hugging me again.

After she broke the hug she asked. "How did you learn to use that magic and change your voice?" She said.

I shrugged. "Honestly... I hadn't noticed I was doing it. It just... HAPPENED." I said.

She nodded. "Oh! I can't wait until you perform at the Gala!" She said.

She immediately saddened. So I had to ask. "Luna... what's wrong?" I said.

She looked at me and sighed. "W-Well... it turns out... the upcoming Gala... is on the same days me and my sister... um... go into..... uh... you know what... never mind... everything is fine, I can't wait to see you there!" She said flying off.

I shrugged and searched for my friends. I found RD talking to Daring Doo and Spitfire. I walked up to them.

"Hey girls!" I said to them.

They all turned to me. RD began walking towards me. "One moment girls...." She said.

When she got to me she slapped me across the face.

"OW! What was that for?!" I said.

"THAT. Was for not telling me the truth." She then looked around to make sure no one was looking.

Spitfire and Daring had began talking to each other. RD leaned forward and.... kissed my cheek?

"And that... is for tonight...." She said smiling.

I froze up as she walked away towards Daring Doo and Spitfire. I shook my head and quickly walked away.

'I need some sleep' I thought as I looked for Scoots.

I found her playing with Sweetie belle and Appleboom just outside the crowd. They saw me approaching. They all ran over to me.

"That was AWESOME!" They said at once.

I shrugged. "Eh..."

We stayed for a while and watched the fireworks. I saw Scoots yawn. So I decided to call it a night.

"Hey Scoots, how about we start makin our way home, and get some sleep. It's Monday today so tomorrow you DO have School." I said.

Scoots nodded and turned to her friends. "I'll see you girls at school tomorrow!" She said.

After they said their goodbye's we began making our way to my home. When we got there I opened the door. Scoots immediately ran into my room for bed. I sat down on the couch and waited. After a few minutes I heard a knock at the door. I got up and opened it. Standing there was an ecstatic Trixie.

"You were SOOO amazing! Yo-" I cut her off by placing a hoof on her mouth.

"Shhhhhh, Scootaloo is sleeping upstairs." I said.

She raised an eyebrow. "That little filly?" She asked.

I nodded. "I am her parent now, I adopted her. Now... about why i wanted you here." I said motioning inside.

She walked in and looked around. I pointed to the couch. "You are welcomed to sleep here for a while until we can find you a new home." I said.

Her eyes went wide. "Trixie can stay here?" She said in awe.

I nodded and she hugged me, softly sobbing into my shoulder. "Trixie thanks you. She has never met anypony as nice as you..." She said.

I began stroking her mane to calm her down. After a bit she stopped crying and I broke the hug. "Come on, its cold out." I said closing the door.

She walked to the couch and got on. I gave her a pillow and blanket and smiled. "Good night Trix." I said.

She blushed and smiled back. "Goodnight CJ.... and thank you...." She said.

I chuckled a bit. "No problem." I said as I began walking upstairs.

I got into bed and as I did Scoots curled around one of my hooves.

'I love my life...' I thought as I drifted off to sleep.

As I fell asleep, a memory flooded it's way into my mind. A memory that happened a few days before coming here...

My drinking contest I had with the other bronies.....

I subconsciously shivered as the memory played in my head.

The good ol' days...

Chapter 40 (Woot): The good ol' days...

>>>Perspective change: CJ one week before Equestria trip<<<

"Alright? You guys ready for our MLP marathon?" I asked my friends who were all sitting around in their own chairs. They all nodded.

I had a projector from my computer hooked up and we were watching the bronystate marathon. We were preparing to watch episode 1 of season 3. As the marathon started all went along smoothly. That was until my friend Carter brought out the vodka. On bronystate... when people sometimes type things like 'yay' or 'oh mai' it sets off a sound effect. We agreed that for every yay we take a shot and every oh mai we all stand up and shout.....

"Oh mai...." Oh dear.....

"THE BRITISH ARE COMING!" Ya you heard that right.

We were all laughing our asses off constently out of drunken stupidity and genuine humor. We were all just on a buzz... until the new episode began....

"Yay... yay.... yay.... yay.... ya-"

>>>Perspective change: CJ present time<<<

"AAAHHHHHHH!" I shout as I fling upward and out of bed.

BANG

I slowly leaned back and got into a sitting position. I had jumped out of the bed straight onto my face.

'One day I'm gonna freakin disfigure myself doing that....'

I heard some fast paced hoof steps coming up the stairs. Trixie burst through the doors with a panicked look. Joined shortly after by Scoots. Trixie found me and levitated me up to my bed. She lay me down on it and immediately started inspecting me. Scoots started doing the same.

"Oh my! Trixie heard the bang from downstairs! Are you alright?" Said Trixie frantically.

Scoots was looking my head over for a bruise.

I gave a slight chuckle and lightly pushed them back a foot or two. "I'm fine, I'm fine... so.... what's up?" I said with a 'How's your day?' face.

Trixie gave me a confused look and then Scoots gave her a 'He's just being CJ....'

Trixie rolled her eyes and motioned for me to follow her. I got off the bed and began to walk beside Scoots with Trixie in front of me. I must have been daydreaming because next thing I knew I was falling forward on the stairs like a slinky.

THUMP

As I made contact with the floor after the last step I grunted and got up. I turned around and began to shout.

"Screw you stairs! I have yet to master you in this foreign body! I will NOT be a human-pony slinky!" I shouted shaking my hoof at the stairs.

I turned around to see a even more confused and slightly worried Trixie and a pokerfaced Scoots. Trixie looked to Scoots.

"Is this normal?" She asked.

Scoots shook her head. "No... that's just CJ." She said walking towards the kitchen.

"Darn right!" I shouted back.

I walked towards the kitchen leaving a very confused Trixie in the living room. I began working on breakfast when a moment later Trixie walks in and starts smelling the air.

"That smells good. What is it?" She asked.

"Dad's making pancakes!" Said an excited Scootaloo.

Trixie raised an eyebrow as she also sat at the table.

"Pancakes? What are those?" Asked Trixie.

Both me and Scoots froze up and dropped our jaws. We slowly turned to face Trixie who looked a bit scared.

"W-What.... is that bad?" She said.

I nodded slowly.... "Lil bit...."

Once I finished making the pancakes I walked over to the table and set them down. I put the syrup beside it and sat down.

"Alright... dig in." I said smiling.

Scoots grabbed a few pancakes and slobbered them with syrup. I went to grab mine when I saw Trixie had not taken any.

"Trixie? Are you going to take any?" I asked.

She looked at me and smiled a bit and took two pancakes. She put syrup on them and tried a bite. Her eyes shot wide open and she smiled widely.

"This is so good! You are such a great cook!" She said stuffing her mouth with more pancakes.

I shrugged. "Heh.... it's just pancakes. Fluttershy can make em better than I can." I said.

***********************

"Hurry up Scoots or your gonna be late!" I shouted from the door.

I heard some scurrying inside and then a-

BANG

"..... What the hay was that?" I yelled into the house.

Scoots flew past me and Trixie who was standing beside me. Scoots stood in front of me.

"I-It was n-nothing! Come on! Or I-I'll.... be.... LATE! Late! I'll be late!" She said with her eyes wide.

I shrugged.

'I don't wanna know....'

All three of us began walking towards Ponyville. Making idle chit-chat as we went. Once we got inside Ponyville Trixie began getting lots of stares again. I looked at her and she was smiling.

"What's got you so happy?" I asked.

Trixie looked at a few of the staring ponies then to me as we walked. "Trixie is just in a good mood. Too good to be bothered by staring ponies." She said happily.

I smiled and nodded. As we neared the school house I froze for a second. Before I could let the fear take hold I shrugged it off and continued.

'Nah... they can't all be-' I was cut off by a shriek.

I looked at where it had come from. There was a little grey colored unicorn with yellowish eyes. She ran up to me.

"Oh my gosh! Are you DJ D1sASt3r!?" She said a bit loud.

I looked around and to my relief nopony had noticed. I looked at Trixie.

"Trixie, can you go ahead and bring Scoots here the rest of the way to the school. Then... I don't know....." I handed her five gold bits. "Go have fun or something. I'll c ya later." I ignored her surprised gasp and gave her the money.

I looked back down at the filly. "Yes I am, but please keep your voice down. I want to stay anonymous." I said a bit quiet.

She gave me a confused look. "A-noon-a-mouse? Whats that?" She said with the most adorable face.

I shook my head. "No... anonymous.... It means to not be seen. Nopony knows I'm here." I said.

"OOOhhhhhh." She said.

"So... anything in perticular you wanted?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

She nodded and pulled out a.... pen and paper?

"Mmmfmmf mmfm MMhfmmf!" She said.

"Eh?"

She spit the stuff onto the ground.

"How about your Autograph?" She asked.

'Ya... shoulda guessed that one....'

I shrugged and bent down. I picked up the pen in my mouth and moved it to the paper.

"Name?" I asked.

"Dinky hooves. But this isn't for me. It's for my mommy!" She said.

"Your mom?" I said.

"Ya. Her name is Ditzy Doo." She said. "She is a HUUUUUGE fan of you! She has everything about you. Posters, keychains, EVERYTHING." She said smiling.

I laughed a bit inside. 'No.... way.... my boss..... my BOSS?' I said in a state of shock.

I shook my head and began writing my autograph with a bit of a message on it. When I finished I folded it... laughing a bit at the contents.... and hoofed it to Dinky.

"Alright, there, don't open it though! It's for your mom to see only!" I said.

She nodded and began to run off. "Thanks mister DJ!" She shouted.

'Fuck....'

As I looked around I could see everything had fallen quiet. All of the fillies and colts had their eyes on me. Even Cheerilee. I slowly began to back up. With a REAAAALLY dumb look on my face.

All I remember after that is running... screaming.... more running.... some shouting about wanting to be my marefriend.... MORE running... shouting about wanting to me my colt...cuddler.... or something..... MORE running..... and they som-

"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztttttttttttttttt! SSSSSSSSssssssssssssssssssss..........."

Then there was darkness.....

Deal or no deal?

Chapter 41: Deal or no deal?

I sat in complete darkness for what felt like hours. I began getting restless... but at the same time had no feelings or emotions whatsoever. After an unknown length of time... I felt a presence near me. I began regaining feeling in my body very slowly. All of a sudden there was a large rush of energy through my body and all of my emotions and feelings came back all at once... The dominant emotion at that time was... of course... fear. I began flailing around... Or at least I think I was... until a very familiar voice made me stop in terror.

"Ah... good... finally awake I see?" Said the voice.

'That voice... it's so.... familiar....' I thought searching for an answer.

Everything lit up in an instant. I was lying on the ground in my human form (Wearing clothes thank god) feeling very dazed. I lifted my head to get a look around. I was inside a small room no bigger than a prison cell with white tiled walls. Including tiled floors and ceilings. All of these resembled the style used in one of the popular games of portal. I didn't know where the light source was coming from but everything was lit up. Not one shadow, not even under my own foot. Other than myself, the only object in the small room was a single chair in the very center. As I noticed this giant red letters forming the words... 'Please take a seat' appeared on the opposite wall to me with a large red arrow pointing to the chair. I hesitantly moved forward. As I reached the chair I inspected it. It didn't at all looked trapped. So I sat. The moment I was sitting the craziness began.

The ceiling disappeared revealing an infinite darkness. I looked away feeling sick from my momentary glance. But it didn't help. The walls of the room fell away. Sort of like a box that had been cut in the corners and all the sides are falling away. As it did I tried to move... but something was forcing me to stay put. When the walls reached even with the floor they disappeared along with the floor. The chair continued to float. Then it lurched forward and began sailing across nothingness. As it went I began passing little transparent panels. Like large panes of glass. Then they all lit up. Each of them revealing a different moment of time in Equestria. But they weren't just any moments... they were all moments of me coming to Equestria and every last thing I had done after that. All of them. Every second like it was recorded. All was in third person view. No sound. I sat there watching the passing moments until I heard a voice.

"I see you like my little collection?" Said the voice.

I hesitated for a moment.

"Ho- Wh.... Who are you....?" I asked being afraid of the answer.

As I finished that the chair stopped in mid flight. All of the panels moved together and made a very large sheet of glass. At least the size of a full building. On them appeared a very familiar being.

"Discord's the name... wreaking chaos is my game." He said with a signature smile.

I stared at the colossal being for a moment in awe. I shook myself out of the state and looked up to him.

"What do you want?!" I shouted to him.

He playfully covered his ears in pretend agony. "Ouch! No need to yell. I want to make nothing but a simple request. A deal if you will." He said.

I raised an eyebrow. "I am not answering anything until I figure out what's going on here!" I said, looking at the chair that was floating in... nothing... with me on it.

I looked back at him. I saw him roll his eyes. "Alright alright fine..." He said snapping his fingers.

As he did all of the panels disappeared and he appeared floating in front of me. My chair disappeared as well. Panic set in before I realized I was standing on a platform that was no bigger than my feet... also floating in nothing.

"That's not any fucking better!" I said to him in my deluxe 'Imma kill u' stare.

He rolled his eyes again. "Ugh... FINE." He said faking annoyance. He snapped his fingers again and disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

The smoke looked a lot like a trollfa-

POOF

I lost my train of thought as I appeared in another room... This time it was HUGE. And I mean HUUUGE! It had the same design as the other. There was only one difference. There were a few boxes of something colorful laying on the ground and bouncing all over the place were strange substances of many colors. I walked over and picked up a box. I immediately dropped it. As It hit the floor It changed into another gooey ball and bounced off. I heard a laugh behind me. I turned to see Discord holding in laughter. I gave him a VERY annoyed look.

"... alright.... the infinite blackness on a chair.... I can handle that.... now infinite blackness on a small platform... kinda if-y.... but Gak.... Gak is just a strait out 'fuck you'...." I said looking at him with hatred.

He shook his head and waved his hand at me. "Oh... you have a terrible sense of humor!" He said snapping his fingers again.

All of the abominations disappeared and we were left in the room alone. I looked at him as silence fell among us. After a moment he shrugged.

"Well?"

"... well what?" I asked.

"Are you going to take a seat?" He said.

"What are yo-" I stopped as I noticed the chair beside me.

"Ha ha.... fuck you." I said stepping away from it.

"Oh never mind... on with the conversation." He said smiling.

He began pacing. "I have been keeping an eye of you for quite a while now." He began.

My mind drifted back to the panes of glass. "Ya no shit." I said back.

He gave me a look of annoyance, clearly he hates being interrupted. I shrugged and he went back to pacing.

"And I have noticed something that you have that is of great importance to myself." He said.

I waited for a moment before speaking. "And what's that?"

He stopped and looked at me with a smile. "Trust." He said in a sickening grin.

I felt my body go a bit cold after he said that. I knew this can only end badly.

"Trust? I don't know... I get a lot of hating on myself." I said back.

"Not from what I've seen. I've seen you have made close friends with eight very important ponies. Especially that yellow one... Fluttershy isn't it?" He asked.

I nodded slowly clenching my jaw.

He smiled and continued pacing again. "So I'm here to make you a deal."

I shook my head. "Forget it Discord... I'll never do anything to hurt my friends!" I said back.

He stopped and smiled. He turned towards me and turned his paw and claws into a square shape. He pulled them away from one another and it formed a strange blue bubbling... thing. It looked 2D but was floating in mid air. The best way to explain this is... yet again... imagine a portal in that game that isn't linked to another.... (Here is an example of WTF I'm talking about) I raised an eyebrow at it.

"What's this f-" He cut me off by raising his hand up.

The inside of the portal... thing... obj- FUCK IT I'm calling it a portal! All of the portal except the ridges of it began to swirl quickly. When it reached it's top speed (At least I think so) It went transparent. But when I looked inside the portal... I didn't see the other wall of this room. No. What I saw made my eyes go wider than they had ever gone before. I was looking at a house through this portal. But it wasn't just a house.

It was MY house.

Not my house in Equestria... my real home. On earth. It was a simple white painted house with a nice driveway and a decently sized lawn. The only other detail I could see was the car that was pulling in the driveway. As it stopped the doors opened. Out stepped my mother and father. My mother was a wreck while my father was showing no emotion whatsoever. Now that I'm seeing this I take a better look at the house. The lawn is overgrown. The house itself looked dirty along with the car. And the telephone pole close to the house had a fairly sized 'MISSING' poster on it. I couldn't tell from the distance... but I was sure the picture it held was me. I felt a tear fall down my cheek as I watched my parents walk inside the house. I had seemed so happy here in Equestria. But deep down... I always wanted to find a way home. To see my parents again. But when I had gotten that letter from Celestia that bore the terrible news I was forced to move on...

>>>Some time between my house being constructed<<<

I was walking to the library hoping to find some nice reading material. As I walked up to the door I knocked.

"Just come in! It's a public library!" Said the voice inside.

I shook my head. "Ya... sorry... still find it hard to believe you live in a library..." I said opening the door.

I saw the last of Twilight rolling her eyes. I went up to ask her about any recommended books when we heard a belch. Spike came in with a scroll. As he handed it to Twilight he looked at me.

"What's up bro?" He said.

"Nothing much... just looking for a book." I said back.

Before he could say anything else a scroll began floating in front of my face.

"it's... for you... from Celestia." Said a confused Twilight.

I raised an eyebrow but took the scroll. I began reading it in my head.

"Greetings Chris James,

We are sad to inform you of our recent discoveries while testing our magic in the creation of portals. Unfortunately we're unable to conjure a portal strong enough to bring you back to your own world. The only reason Twilight did was because that's what the spell chose to bring fourth. We cannot force it to undo it's decision. Both me and my sister are truly sorry for this sad news. We hope you may understand.... again... we're truly sorry that you can't return. There's only ever been one being able to bend reality to his will. And he's too unstable to even attempt freeing... so until next time...

Celestia"

As I finished the letter I closed it. I held in any tears that were building up.

'So I guess this is home then...' I thought sadly.

'I'm so sorry mom and dad...'

"Are you OK?" Asked Twilight.

I opened my eyes and looked at her. "Y-Ya... I'm OK." I said nodding.

"I-I'll see you all later... I need time alone to think...." I said as I walked out of the Library.

>>>Present time<<<

As I snapped back to reality I noticed Discord's face literally in front of my own. I jumped back in surprise.

"Gah!" I yelled as I jumped.

Discord threw his arms in the air. "Ugh... FINALLY!" He said with mock boredom.

I regained my footing and looked back to him standing beside the portal, still showing my house.

"So. As I was saying before you rudely stopped listening... I'm here to make a deal. I have the power to give you anything. So here's your part of the bargain. I'll send you home so you may see your family again. But it cannot be permanent. Something is continuing to forbid that from happening. It'll last an hour. Now before you say anything... let me say this. Your parents have been falling apart since you left. They've searched non-stop for you. They're of the verge of losing their jobs and home. Basically everything. If you could see them again and tell them what had happened... it could save them. If not... well... then anything that proceeds will be your fault. Your mother has already attempted suicide!"

I flinched as he ended that statement. I didn't want to accept... but I wanted to see them so badly.

I paused for a moment before speaking. "And what do you get in return?" I asked.

He smiled again. "Oh me? Nothing of course. I'm going to... however... give YOU something." He said.

I once again became confused.

"If you accept than I'll send you home for an hour. And when that time is up... and you come back, I give you my powers for a little while. Let you do whatever you want... seem fair?" He said grinning.

'I know I shouldn't trust him... and there's probably something hidden in all of this... but it doesn't make sense'

I shook my head. "So wait. I get to go home for an hour... and for your part of the deal I get YOUR powers for a test run?" I asked.

"Correct."

I scratched my head. "Bu- I- Wha... huh?!" I said even more confused. "What if you're lying? What if this is just a whole scheme to get me away for some reason?" I said back.

He rolled his eyes, "Fine... I give you my powers as I send you there. And in return taking away my own. But keeping my own invisibility and immortality." He said back.

I thought it over. "Do you promise not to do ANYTHING bad. Not ONE thing while I'm gone? AND not do anything that causes problems to my friends or any of Equestria?" I said.

He smiled again and placed a paw on his chest and his other claw in the air.

"I swear on my own life that I, Discord, shall not cause anything in anyway that will create any kind of problems in Equestria while you are gone and when you come back." He said in a cheery tone.

I narrowed my eyes and stared into his own. As he stared back. After moments of silence... I made my decision.

"Deal...." I said.

He grinned, almost evilly, and motioned towards the portal. I got right in front of it and began going through, only to stop.

"When I get there I'll have your powers, and you won't do anything bad?" I asked.

He nodded.

"What if you break your word?" I said back.

He looked at me sinisterly.

"I may be the lord of chaos... but I never... I repeat.... NEVER break my word." He said back.

As he finished saying that a watch appeared on my wrist showing 1:00:00 I looked back at him.

"This here will start counting down when you get into your world. When It reaches zero you'll return to Ponyville. Just outside though to avoid suspicion." He said

I nodded and looked back to the portal. I closed my eyes for a moment thinking over everything that had just happened. I still couldn't find anything wrong with the deal. I pushed the thought away and opened my eyes. I looked at the portal leading home. I took a deep breath and braced myself.

'Here goes nothing' I thought as I stepped into the portal.

As I did it sucked me in and I went soaring through a swirling blue tunnel. Just as I was nearing a bright light at the end I heard a voice from far behind me echo through the tunnel.

"See you soon...." He said in a dark voice.

Then I reached the light and I felt blind. A few moments later I opened my eyes I didn't know were closed. I noticed I was on a street. I looked up and saw something that made me want to run at top speed in joy.

I saw home...

An unexpected appearance

Chapter 42: An unexpected appearance

As I ran towards my home my heart was beating rapidly. I could feel it hitting against my chest as I neared my old home. I thought for a moment it would explode before I would reach it. Just before it feels like it was going to burst... I found myself standing in front of my house. I stood there for a good five minutes staring at the door. I then heard a noise.

*Beep*

I looked down to where the noise had come from. I noticed that the watch had begun count down.

'One hour... right. I said in my thoughts.

I couldn't waste any time. I took in a deep breath and brought my fist up to the door.

*Knock knock knock*

I waited a moment and heard no response. I was about to knock again when I heard the sound of a lock click. The door slowly squeaked open. Once it opened completely I almost passed out from joy. Standing there in the doorway was my very confused looking mother. She blinked once before looking me up and down.

"C-Chris?" She said quietly.

I nodded feeling tears forming in my eyes. Before I could say anything my mother ran towards me and hugged me so hard as if she thought she would never see me again. And she wont... I hugged her back as she sobbed. I heard another voice from the house.

"Honey whats that no-" The voice stopped as I saw my dad look out the doorway to see me.

"Son?!" He said out loud.

I nodded again. "Hi dad..."

He stood there dumbstruck. He noticed my mother crying and walked forward. He leaned his head out the door and looked around. Then motioned for us to come in. So we did. The house was a two floor house. Surprisingly the layout was close to the one I had in Equestria... the only difference was the kitchen was a lot bigger and the top floor had two bedrooms not one. I sat down in the living room on the couch. My mother sat beside me and my dad sat across from me. We sat there in silence for a minute before I remembered my limited time. I looked up at my dads face then to my mothers beside me. I sighed.

"Listen.... I know there's probably a lot you want to know... and I want to give you the answers.... but... you have to know I can't stay." I said to them.

They immediately saddened.

"I'll tell you what I can... but as of now..." I looked at my watch. "I have 53 minutes before I have to go back." This caused them to become confused.

"What do you mean... go back?" My father asked.

I gave a small laugh. "Let me tell you a small story..."

I then began to tell them the events leading to be coming to Equestria. They didn't believe me at first. But they began to soften up as they saw I had a serious tone the whole time and would not let up on this story. I finished and looked at my watch. I now have 41 minutes left.

"Son... I know that you liked this show... but to get us to believe this is just...."

"Crazy I know.... That's what I thought when I woke up there." I said.

I then remembered what Discord said about the powers. I gave a small chuckle.

"Heh... I know how I can prove it..." I said to my dad.

He raised an eyebrow. "Son... you don't have to do that... we-" I cut him off.

"Nah... it's alright.... if Discord was telling the truth then this should work." I said as I tried to transform myself into a pony.

After multiple failed attempts I sat down feeling a bit tired. "I hate you Discord..." I thought as I felt myself get thirsty.

Without even thinking about it a glass of orange juice appeared in my hand and I started taking a drink. I then noticed the looks my parents were giving me. I got confused and looked at me drink. I spit it out of my mouth and dropped the glass as I just realized what I did.

"So THATS how chaos magic works..." I said out loud.

I smiled and looked at my parents. They were both frozen. Then my dads eyes went wide.

"So it's true... you really can't stay..." He said saddening.

My smile diminished as I heard this. "Don't feel bad... think of it as... me saying goodbye. And now you know I'm safe and not hurt." I said.

My mother finally spoke up. "You have a point there. We were so sad when you disappeared because we didn't know if you were alright." She said smiling.

Then my mom did something I did NOT expect.

"So... did you meet any cute mares there?" She said winking.

I was dumbfounded. "E-Excuse me?" I said back.

My dad wore the same surprised face as me. My mom looked at me and my dad and shrugged.

"What? He's in a totally different world. If he decides to do that I'm OK with it. They are basically humans in a different body there.... what? I watched the show too!" My mother said to my dad.

And it was true. She did watch it. She found it cute. Her favorite was... of course... Fluttershy and Scootaloo from the CMC. That's why this is going to be so awkward...

She looked back to me. "So... did you get... busy at all?" She said smiling.

I shook my head. "Sometimes you just surprise the living hell out of me..." I said facepalming.

She let out a laugh then we all stopped once we heard another sound.

*Beep!*

I looked down to my watch.

"I have another half hour." I said to them.

I then looked to my mom...

'Fuck it...'

I took in a breath. "Mom... I'm not dating any of the ponies." I said.

She looked saddened by this. So I continued.

"But..." I began... she looked back to me.

"I am... eragngensd...." I said under my breath.

She raised an eyebrow. "What was that?"

I spoke again. "I said I'm... eragehged...."

She shook her head. "One more time?"

I put on my... 'Fuck it' Face.

"Engaged! I said I'm engaged!" I shouted out.

My dad just continued to stare and my mom let out a gasp.

'Bracing for impact...' I clenched my body.

What I heard surprised me even more.

"So? Who's the lucky mare?" My mother asked.

Both me and my dad looked at my mother in complete and utter surprise and shouted in sync.

"FUCKING REALLY?!"

The meaning of awkward

Chapter 43: The meaning of awkward

As me and my father finished that sentence my mother just stood there looking a bit surprised and a bit angry.

She looked back and fourth between us. "What? I was just wondering..." She said shrugging.

I couldn't see my dad's reaction to that because I had my face covered by my hand.

"Mom.... why. Why do you do this..." I said pulling my hand down and looking at her.

She smiled. "What do you mean? I was just asking. Oh... and remember hun.... to always play sa-"

"Shut up!" I yelled interrupting her.

She just shrugged and smiled.

'You know what.... fuck trollestia.... I had to deal with something worse'

*Beep*

I looked to my watch. Then back up to my parents. My mother looked cheery like always. And my dad looked like he just had his head pumped with 80cc's of fuck.

"Listen.... I only have twenty minutes left before I need to go back. Is-"

"You haven't answered my question!" My mother cut in.

"Oh my god.... Fi-" I stopped when I felt something.... poke.... me in the..... brain?

'Sorry to interrupt... but everyone here is getting antsy....' Said an all to familiar voice.

'What are you talking about.... wait... WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS INTERRU-'

'Yes yes... so anyways I-'

'AHHHHHHHH!'

'Calm down... I just wanted to let you know about a little problem is all. Time DOES work differently here. Everyone is worried that you are gone.... for some reason. Mostly that yellow pegasus. So to avoid any suspicion of my plans I'm sending her to you until you come back'

'... He can't be fucking serious... that solution doesn't even make sense!'

'Oh wait... I can't.....'

'Oh thank god..... I don't know how many hugs my mom-'

'Ah yes! I'll send that Scootaloo pony as well!'

'Discord....'

No answer.

'Discord I swear to god... if you hung u- er... whatever the fuck you did. I will fucking rip you in two. And make a clone of you so I can do it again and I wi-'

*ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzsssssssssssssss*

Before I could finish.... again... a portal of brownish yellow energy appeared. Just in the middle of the damn room. My dad made a short yell and fell backwards flipping his chair. And my mother ran in the kitchen.

When the portal stopped swirling it disappeared. Standing there were two figures frozen in fear. Two figures that shouldn't exist in this world. Two figures my mom will literally hug to death.

Fluttershy and Scoots...

We all stood there for a moment. Well sort of.... I was the only one standing there. Scoots was laying down covering her head with her hooves. Fluttershy was as well. My dad was struggling and losing to flip the chair back over that he was still somehow sitting in, despite it being flipped backwards. And my mother went barreling into the kitchen for some unknown reason.

As Fluttershy and Scoots lay there I just stood. I didn't know what to do. 20% of my head was trying to think of what to say. The other 80% was either caught in the fuck storm of my head, or plotting on which direction to rip discord in half. By the time I figured out how to open my mouth my mother came running back into the room swinging a spatula.

"Stay back! I have a weapon here and I am not afraid to use it!" She yelled looking around.

I shook my head and looked at her.

"Mom... put that down." I said seriosuly.

She shook her head. "No! What if they are still here!" She said back.

I facepalmed. "Who is 'they' mom?" I said.

She looked around for a moment. "You know th-" She stopped when she saw the two figures laying on the ground.

Her eyes widened and she dropped the spatula. She slowly raised her finger and pointed to the two scared figures.

"P-P-ponies....." She said.

'Oh no.... oh god... why do you hate me....' I slowly nodded.

Her smile widened. In an instant she ran at them and swooped them up into a big hug. She sat on the couch and held the two figures. She must have noticed they were scared because she started stroking their manes and whispering things to them like she did to me when I was young. I never figured out how. But she had this strange feeling that always surrounded her. It's like you could never feel sad around her. Ever. There was only one exception....

I snapped myself out of the trance I had gotten into and looked back to my mother. The two ponies looked calm.

Then they opened their eyes.

Scoots immediately ran out of her arms and picked up the spatula in her mouth.

"Assume defensive positions!" She yelled as she ran up the stairs.

Fluttershy just gave a small squeak and flew after Scoots.

My mother looked at me confused. "Was it something I did?" She said.

I smiled a bit. "Don't worry, lets go find them." I said walking to the stairs.

"Don't worry about me! I'm fine in this chair!" Yelled my dad.

"Mmmk!" I yelled back.

I ran up the stairs with my mother following me close behind. When we got to the top we hear the sound of something clicking shut. I walk into the room closest to the right and look around. It was my room I had before I moved out. I moved out at 18 which was the reason for my even coming to Equestria. I looked around and noticed all of my old stuff. My TV. My game posters. I walked over and looked at what was sitting on the nightstand beside my bed. I picked up the small box and read it.

'Red vs Blue boxed set..... holy hell that's still here? I'm bringing this with me....' I thought as I picked up the box.

I looked over to my mom as she ran in the door of my room.

"Where are they?" She asked.

I heard a small noise. I pointed to my closet. She began to run towards it when I held up my hand. She stopped and looked at me. I smiled and walked towards the closet. I cleared my throat.

"Hey Shy... Scoots, it's me CJ. Can you gu-" Before I could finish a voice yelled back through the door.

"Daddy!?" Yelled the voice.

"DADDY?!" Yelled my mom.

"Mom!" I yelled back.

"CJ!" Yelled another voice.

"DADDY?!" Yelled my mom.

"Sootaloo!" Said a happy voice in the closet.

*Facepalm*

An explanation is in order

Chapter 44: An explanation is in order

After removing my hand from my forehead... I noticed my mother looking at me through the doorway.

She did not look happy.

"I can explain....." I said holding my hands up defensively.

She crossed her arms and looked at me more intently. We both sat there for a bit before she broke the silence.

"Well it's about time you got a girlfriend!" She said out loud causing laughter from the closet.

I shook my head. "Are you kiddi- ....you know what.... NEVERMIND!" I said walking to the closet.

I keeled down and spoke to the ponies in the closet.

"Shy... Scoots. Come on out. It's alright." I said.

I waited a few moments before I saw the door inch open a bit and I could see a huge eye through the small space. Before I could speak the door burst open and Fluttershy was around my neck holding me tightly.

"It's good to see you to Shy..." I said patting her back while smiling.

I got up with her STILL attatched to my neck.

"Uh... Shy?" I said.

She looked at me then the ground. She blushed a bit then let go. She flew softly beside me.

I looked forward towards my mother. She was smiling widely.

I knew what that smile meant....

I looked down and saw Scoots looking up at me. I knelt down and pat her on the head.

"Nice to see you too Scoots!" I said smiling.

She ALSO hugged me. "I missed you daddy!" She said in a saddish tone.

'I've only been gone like... what? 40 minutes?' I thought.

I shrugged and looked up to my mother. I saw her looking at me with a look of curiosity.

"How about you two and..... 'daddy' come to the living room for a talk...." She said turning away.

'Oh fuck my life....'

I looked down to a confused Scoots and a even more confused Fluttershy. I looked at Fluttershy for a moment and spoke two words.

"My mother...." I said.

"Oh.... oh.... OH! ......Oh my...." She muttered while blushing.

I stroked her mane. "Don't worry.... shouldn't be to bad." I said leading them out of the room.

We made it to the living room and looked around. Everything had been picked up that was knocked over from their arrival. My dad even managed to dislodge himself from the tipped chair. Then proceed to sit back down in it again. We slowly made our way to the couch where I noticed my mother sitting. All of us but Scoots anyway. She was way ahead if us... zooming around the room looking at everything she can. We made it to the couch and sat down. Fluttershy decided to sit left of me. My mother was on the right. We sat there for a bit in silence before I heard a sound.

*Beep*

I looked down at my watch. 'Damn.... 15 more minutes.'

I looked up to my mother. "So...." I started.

She raised her hand to stop me. She looked past me to Fluttershy. "I believe we haven't been properly introduced.... my name is Crystal... Chris's mother." She said sticking out her hand.

"F-F-Fluttershy...." She said while shaking my mothers hand.

My mother smiled and pulled her hand away and motioned to my Father. "That's Chris's father Kelly." She said.

My dad waved to Fluttershy as she did so back. Fluttershy motioned to the pony rocketing around the room. "That's Scootaloo. Sorry... she's a bit.... hyper....." Fluttershy said smiling.

"I can see that...." My mom said smiling.

My mother then looked at me.

'Oh no... here comes.... THE TALK'

There was a very short pause. My mother then looked at me and said something that I was not in any way prepared for.

"You used protection right?"

I swear to God about two things that happened within a second after that.

1) I think there may be a permanent hand print on my face from the epic facepalmage

2) I swear I could hear the Demonic laughter of a chaos god having the fucking time of his life

A bumpy ride back

Chapter 45: A bumpy ride back

I sat there in shock with my mouth hanging wide open. I blinked a few times and ran those words through my head trying to figure out if she really just said that.

'....She really just said that.....' I thought as I blinked once.

I looked to my left and saw Fluttershy whose face was completely red and was not even blinking. I slowly turned back to my mother and looked at her. She smiled at me... I gave her the "Are you fucking kidding me" Stare.

She just shrugged and smiled more.

"Jeez it was just a question...." She said looking away. "Anyways... I know you need to be leaving soon... but i want you to bring something with you." She said smiling more.

She brought her fingers to her mouth and whistled. After a few seconds I heard nails clicking on the ground. I looked to the left just in time to see most loved thing I have ever had close to me other than Fluttershy and Scoots.

My dog tank. Yes... his name is tank.

He was a young black lab. I would tell you more about him but by that time he had jumped onto the couch and licking my face excitedly. I began chuckling a bit trying to get him off. When I finally managed to get him off I spent a minute to two wiping my face clean of all the drool.

'Blah!' I thought as I finished wiping my face.

I then looked to my left and noticed Shy petting Tank. She seemed happy again.

'Heh.... I bet RD will think I took the name or something...' I thought as my mind began to wander.

But before it could wander too much....

*Beep*

I looked down at my watch. Saw how much time I had left and saddened. I looked back up to my parents. My dad had gotten off his chair and was standing near the couch resting his hand on my mothers shoulder while she continued to sit. She was no longer smiling. Or crying. But she has that sad smile on you wear when something great happens and you know it means the end of something...

My mother stood up and placed her hand on my shoulder.

"Chris." She began.

I listened.

"No matter what happens. No matter what you decide to do... know that we will be proud of you no matter what. And just because you may not see us anymore. Doesn't mean we won't still be with each other." She said as a tear rolled down her cheek.

I stood up and hugged her. A moment later my dad and Fluttershy joined in. I felt a tug on my leg. I knelt down and picked up Scoots and we all gave one big hug. We sat there for who knows how long. Unti-

*Beep*

I looked at my watch.

'2 minutes...' I pulled away from my parents.

"Thanks guys.... it means a lot...." I said looking between my parents.

*Beep*

'1 minute 30 seconds'

"I know I will miss you both so much...." I paused....

They both smiled. Shy began flying beside me. Scoots ran beside me. I motioned for them to stay near. I looked back at my parents.

*Beep*

'45 Seconds'

I knelt down with Shy landing beside me. I looked up to my parents.

*Beep*

'35 Seconds'

My mother and father both smiled one last time.

"We will miss you too...." Said my mother. "We will lose one of our greatest treasures yes...."

*Beep*

'15 Seconds'

She sniffed a bit. "We will yes.... but at the same time....."

*Beep*

'8 Seconds'

"We have gained something in return of your short return...."

*Beeep......Beeeeeep.......Beeeeeeeeeep......*

'1 Second'

As a big flash of white light engulfed me and my one dog and two pony companions.... my mother's last word lingered in my mind.... it Echoed through my entire being. Like that very word means the difference between what I may become...

There will be blood

Chapter 46: There will be blood

As the bright flash subsided, I rubbed my eyes. Attempting to get rid of the small sting from the level of light caused during the trip. It didn't seem to go away. I wished for it to go away in the back of my mind and to my surprise, it did. I shook my head a bit and looked around.

Tried to anyway.

'SMASH'

I instantly have the wind knocked out of me and thrown onto the ground. I open my eyes and notice something on my chest. A hoof. A strange looking hoof. I followed the hoof up to a body. I instantly let a smile overcome my features. I tried to speak but then realized how bad I really got hit. He looked down at me for a moment and I swear he smiled. Not sure how.

"CJ!" Yelled Hecarim while offering a hand.

I gladly took the offer and he pulled me to my feet. I took a moment to catch my breath.

"Celestia be damned dude that hurt." I told him sucking in air.

He shrugged.

After I caught my breath I looked around.

'Where is Shy and S-'

ZZZZZzzzzzz

I look up at a white light just in time to see the two objects flying towards me before being knocked off my feet, and giving them clear range to land on my chest and again, knock the air out of me.

Scoots was the first to notice who she landed off and giggled. "How many times has a pony fallen on you?"

I shrugged and wheezed out. "Lost... count...."

She laughed and got off me. Shy did next and helped me up.

'Wait.... where is Ta-'

Flash of light....

This time I jump to the left and hold out my arms.

'SLAM'

He lands right on me and I hit the ground once again.

'I swear this universe loves fucking with me....'

Tank quickly got off of me. I sat there for a moment longer not moving.

"CJ. Are you alright?" Asked Shy.

I lifted up a finger. "Yeah.... yeah.... I'm fine... just... let me stay here... for a bit, k?" I said trying to catch my breath.

I then hear Shy chuckle a bit, and in curiosity I look up just in time to see Hecarim fire a blue bolt of flames at me. I flipped out, jumped up, and ran behind a big rock.

I heard them laughing. I stood up.

"That wasn't funny! That could have really hurt me!" I yelled at the laughing bunch.

Hecarim shook his head. "No... it was illusion flames. It would have done nothing but tickle you." He said and began laughing again.

I rolled my eyes.

He motioned for us all to follow him. So we did. It was silent for a while. Other than the occasional snicker. A few more minutes passed by and I decided to break the silence.

"So... Hec, how are you? I mean.... really. Last time I saw you you.... died." I said with a sheepish smile.

He nodded. "Yes I was. But a shadow of war can never die. Where there is violence, there will always be the shadow of it's fights. And under the circumstances, I think me being here is a good thing. that I'm on your side anyway." He finished.

I looked back and forth between Hecarim and Shy.

"Uh...... what happened in the short while I was gone..."

They looked at me like I was insane. "Short?" Said Hecarim. "Short time? You have been gone for two weeks. We have been searching for you endlessly. Then A few days ago Fluttershy and Scootaloo here go missing as well. And it doesn't help we need to send so many search parties out when we need them on the battlefronts."

Now I was really confused. The two weeks thing ya. I expected the time to be different between worlds. But what is he talking about. What fight? Did someone steal a sweet role?

"Ok.... what is going on? Fill me in!" I said to Hecarim.

Everyone stopped and turned to me. I began to dread the answer.

"You haven't told him?" Asked Hecarim.

Shy shook her head. "I had a lot on my mind...."

He sighed and looked at me. "CJ... Luna is missing."

Choosing Sides (END OF A SHADOW'S GRAVE! Read end notes.... very important!)

Chapter 47: Choosing Sides

I sat there for a moment unable to process what I had just heard.

"Missing? What do you mean MISSING?" I said looking straight at him.

He looked straight back at me. Even though he had no eyes. We sat there silent for a bit until he broke the silence.

"After you left, things started to go wrong...." He said looking away.

"Define... 'Go wrong'?" I said back to him.

He stayed silent for a moment. Then began to explain what had happened to the best of his ability.

"I'm not exactly sure what had happened to cause her disappearance. All I know is there will be blood shed soon. But I have a very bad feeling about what is going on here. It doesn't feel... natural..."

I looked at the ghostly horseman. "Really? Not natural? REALLY?"

He shook his head. "You wouldn't understand." And without another word he began walking again.

I turned to Shy who just shrugged and continued to walk with me. We stayed silent for a long time until we reached my house. Hecarim stopped and turned to me.

"I want you to take your family and stay indoors until this mess gets sorted out. I can sense.... unusual power within you. I need time to prepare anyway. Now go, do not answer the door to anyone you do not know. And do NOT leave the house unless absolutely necessary... and if you do, do not go alone. Alright?" He asked looking at me.

I nodded. "Alright, I'll stay here and I will PROMISE not to get into any trouble." I finished putting my hand across my chest.

"Okay, I'll come to check on you every hour." He finished as he walked behind us letting us walk up to the door.

I opened it as everyone ran in. I began stepping inside when Hecarim placed his hand on my shoulder. I turned around to look at him.

"One more thing..." He began. "It's good to have you back." He said as he reached out with his hand.

I grabbed his hand and shook. Nodding to him. "Great to be back."

And with that I turned and walked into the house. I closed the door and noticed a large lock on it. Hecarim probably had it installed. I turned to latch and a loud Clang ringed out. I turned and walked towards Shy and Scoots who were sitting on the couch.

"So... what do you want to do while this all gets sorted out?" I asked.

Scoots started getting excited and jumped a bit. "Oh I know! Look at the new tricks Rainbow Dash taught me!" She said happily.

I nodded and sat down on the couch next to Shy.

We spent the next few hours watching Scoots and playing random games. Hecarim checked up on us every hour like he said. But no matter how much we played, I couldn't shake this awful feeling..... I knew it was probably Discord's power in me just settling or something. But I wasn't sure.

It was now around 11:00 PM, so I turned to Scoots.

"Alright, it's time for bed missy." I said to her.

"Awwwww.... Can't I stay up a bit longer?" She asked looking at my eyes.

"Sorry but, you need to get to sleep, I'll come up and check on you in a few minutes alright?" I said with a smile.

She nodded. "Alriiiight." She said as she walked up the stairs.

I looked at Shy who was sitting next to me on the couch. "Are you going to bed too?" I asked.

She nodded. "Yes, but I'll stay up a bit longer with you." She said.

I nodded back. "Well, what do you want to talk about?" I asked.

She shrugged then winced. "Ow...." She said.

I lifted an eyebrow. "What is it?" I said looking at her neck she was now rubbing.

She shook her head. "I... I don't know... felt *Yawn* like a bug or something.... bit me." She said tiredly.

I looked at her. "You know, maybe you should go to bed, you look really tired now." I said.

She shook her head. "No no.... I'm... I......" Then she dozed off and began lightly snoring.

I chuckled a bit. I lifted her up and slowly walked up the stairs. I opened my door and walked in. I saw Scoots laying in the bed. I put Shy next to her and tucked them both in. I gave them both a kiss on the forehead.

"Sleep tight." I said as I walked to the door.

I turned and began to slowly close it, just before I closed it I looked inside to Shy and Scoots. My Family. And smiled one last time. I closed the door and walked down the stairs where I sat back down on the couch.

"Heh..." I chuckled to myself. "I don't remember Scoots ever falling asleep so fast...." I said to myself.

Before I could say anything else I felt a tiny prick on the back of my neck. I winced a bit at the pain. "Sunova...." I rubbed my neck a bit.

I rolled my eyes. "Damn bugs." I said out-loud.

I then gave a yawn.... then another. Then my eyes began to feel a bit droopy. I began finding it hard to stay awake.

"Why am I so tired... I feel... *Yawn* I feel like I just ran a marathon....." I finished as my eyes drooped more. I then felt my head hit the couch. I opened my eyes a little bit and saw something standing there.

It reached for me as my eyes closed for good. I suddenly felt myself being dragged forward, and I hear a sudden voice in my head.

Then darkness overtakes me.
