"Hi Carrot Top", I said.

"Hi Tran", replied Carrot Top.

"Carrots my friend, I think I have your solution to your bunny problem."

"Really? What is it?" Carrot Top was having problems with bunnies taking her carrots.

"Chicken Wire." I took out a handmade roll of chicken wire and several wood stakes out of my backpack. “You just have to wrap this chicken wire around your fence to keep out any small animals."

"I can't believe that I didn't think of that before."

"Oh well." I finished putting up the small makeshift fence and left.

It have passed a week since the four of us won the war for the changelings. Ever since we liberated the town of Vanhoover, the four of us tried to settle down and fit it.

The four of us tried to get a means of labor and we did succeed. Andy is working with Pinkie Pie at Sugarcube Corner. Apparently, ponies really like most Asian pastries. For some reason that I obviously didn't state in the previous sentence, moon cakes are in right now.

Ike gave up finding a job after trying to get a job at a gym, restaurant, flower shop, music shop, a hardware store, a prank shop, movie parlor, ice cream parlor, a quills and sofa store, a spa, a parchment store, and even Rarity's boutique but any straight and sane male would leave after five seconds. In the end, he just plays his guitar at the local park for tips. So far, it's working out for him.

Nick just wound up working for Applejack's farm and it is definitely working for him. He doesn't buck apples for obvious reasons but he does help plow fields and move baskets of apples.

For housing, Andy still stayed at Twilight despite me offering him a home, Ike got Cranky Doodle's old home, and Nick got a house near Fluttershy's cottage.

Me, I lived in my bunker and had no reason to work for someone because I had a large collection of jewelry and the money I won from the casino. Since I didn't have a job, I had a lot of free time. In my free time, I just helped other people with any problems they had for free, like Carrot Top's problem with the rabbits. Other than that, I opened up a store near the local open aired market. Can anyone guess what Tran A.K.A. the crazy Asian A.K.A. The Cannibal sells in his store? KITTENS!!!! Kidding, weapons and armor. I ate an MRE while I went my shop. I opened the door with one of my millions of keys and went inside. I opened the store and went to the counter.

The store was about the size of Applejack's barn and the ceiling was fifteen feet above the ground to account for my alicorn biped height. Inside the store sold weapons and armors, as I stated earlier. I had to be careful though. Weapon stores do sell a way of killing or harming someone easier. The four windows(two in the front and one on the left and right walls) are armored so no one could get in. The windows were metal bars imbedded in three inch glass. The walls are concrete filled cinder block walls. The roof wasn't thatched, it was three eighths inch thick steel disguised with grass like a thatched roof to disguise it. The only door had three bolts and a normal door handle a pony can use.

Inside sold a variety of weapons. The store was separated into four parts. One part sold bladed and sharp objects, such as swords, knives, daggers, and weapons in that range. Another part sold miscellaneous weapons, such as tonfas, maces, spiked horseshoes, etc. Another part sold ranged weapons, such as shurikans, bows, crossbows, etc. but not any ranged weapons using black powder. The last part of the store sold armor, such as chain maille, plate maille, scale maille, leather armor, etc. All of the weapons inside were of the kind that the ponies of Equestria has never seen before. The armor were more advanced than what the royal guard had. Everything I sold was completely hand made with speed with the magic I had. On normal occasions, I could make a full suit of knight's armor in less than thirty minutes. Advanced weapons, such as samurai swords, took about an hour to make. For those of you who are going to talk about how I don't know how to make samurai swords because of what I said in the second chapter, the samurai sword I use is a unique type of sword that is composed of seven layers of steel and is near impossible to remake, even in modern times, due to the fact that the recipe for that type of sword is lost. However, I knew how to make normal katanas. Katanas start out as blocks of steel. The blocks of steel are heated up to the point where it is red hot. The metal block is folded over and pointed multiple times until the general shape and curve of the samurai sword is made. After the shape and curve of the sword is made, the sword's blade is cooled down from being red hot to being able to be held. The next step makes one of the most important parts of a samurai sword. You take clay and apply it to the half of the sword's entirely along the blade of the sword  that isn't supposed to be sharpened and leave the other half, the part of the sword that is meant to be sharpened exposed. This in turn makes the front blade part a hard  steel and the back part of the sword a soft steel. This makes cutting easy for a samurai sword. The hard part enables cutting and the soft part of the sword provides a back bone for the sword to bend slightly when it cuts through a body or something hard. Then the blade has to be hand sharpened. It isn't sharpened like a normal blade where it just makes a point, it has to be sharpened to a specific curve. A normal blade's curve would make a V, while a normal katana or samurai sword's blade makes a U with a point at the end of the U.

All of the weapons are obviously locked up and behind counters. All suits of armor are displayed on mannequins and were obviously couldn’t be stolen because it is hard to walk out of a store wearing a suit of armor that you weren't wearing coming inside the store. At several areas of the store housed targets and dummies. I sold weapons and armor to anyone that had a good reason.

Even though this was a weapon store in a peaceful Equestria, it quickly gained popularity. Exotic weapons were popular. Ponies from as far as Manehattan would come just to get a weapon from me. Some ponies came just to see a human or one of Equestria’s saviors, something they didn't believe was real the first time they heard about a biped six foot tall species that are highly capable in combat. Every day, probably a hundred ponies went to my store when it was open and I have only been open for three days. I did custom work too, there was extra armor materials and various metals to make custom armor or weapons located next to an area of the store that housed an anvil and a furnace.

I took my backpack, gear, and weapons off of my and placed it onto the counter. Then I waited for someone to come in.

Two Hours Later

By now, ten ponies were in my store. One of the ponies went to me and said, “Hello, I'm looking for a weapon that's easier to use but is devastating when it's being used."

"Ok, what's your reason why you need a weapon of such?", I asked.

"I was in Canterlot when a crazy pony impersonating Princess Celestia tried to mug me with an axe. Luckily my two friends were with me and we managed to fight him off. I just want to buy something to defend myself if something like that were to ever happen again."

I looked at the pony and looked at his body. I then realized he was one of the three ponies that tried to mug me in Canterlot. Specifically, the pony that I stabbed in the shoulder with the spiked end of my tomahawk. “Can you describe me what the tomahawk looked like?"

"Yes I can. It was an axe. It had a triangular head but the inside of the ace blade was missing to an extent. There were some feathers hanging from the axe and the head had a spiked end on one side." I drew my tomahawk on a piece of paper and showed it to him."Yeah, that's it."

I my tomahawk from my piled of possessions that I placed on the table and showed it to him. The stallion's eyes lit up and he tried to run out the door. *SNAP* The door was shut with my magic right before he could get out of the store. “You don't lie to someone in his own establishment. *SNAP* I reopened the door and teleported the stallion.

Somewhere In The Canterlot Castle

Princess Celestia and Luna were in the dining room, eating their lunch, when suddenly, a random tied up pony with a note stuck to his head fell onto the table right in front of Celestia onto her food.

"MY CAKE!!!", said Celestia. “GUARDS!!!" Several guards ran in and arrested the stallion. Celestia took the note that was duct taped to his head and read it.

What I wrote in it was

Dear Celly and Lulu,

This stallion here was someone that tried to mug me two weeks ago. I beat up his friends and him and left. Two weeks later, he went to my store and tried to buy a weapon from me after claiming," I was in Canterlot when a crazy pony impersonating Princess Celestia tried to mug me with an axe. Luckily my two friends were with me and we managed to fight him off. I just want to buy something to defend myself if something like that were to ever happen again." This was a lie because he was one of the muggers I beat up. Please put him in a dungeon. Before you ask, I opened a weapons store and no, I will not give or sell mass amounts of any of the weapons to the royal guard. If any of your military personnel want one of my weapons, they have to come to Ponyville, find my store, pick something they want, have a good reason for wanting it, and purchase it. PEACE!!!

Sincerely,

Tran

Back In Ponyville

"Yes I can make you something for your marefriend", I said to a mare. “People think I only sell weapons and violent things, but I help people with anything else. So, what do you want me to make for Bon Bon?"

"How'd you know she was Bon Bon?", said Lyra Heartstrings.

"I KNOW EVERYTHING!!!! Everyone should know this by now." By now. I probably said that I knew everything about 350 times by now.

"Yeah. You even said that to Bon Bon. What are you anyways?"

"Human or Homo Sapien. Our species originated from primates."

"Subspecies?"

"Yeah. The human race has subspecies of humans similar to different pony species."

"Which subspecies are you?"

"Asian. Asians are subspecies of my kind that are well known for their high combat ability, high intelligence, higher than normal discipline, having small eyes, and being short. Being short is probably the only stereotype that I don't go by."

"YOU THINK!??!? You're six foot tall giant."

"Eeyup. Now, back to business. What did you want me to make for Bon Bon?"

"Oh yeah. Can you make me something for Bon Bon that he can wear that's decorative but not too flashy?"

"How about a locket?"

"What's a locket?"

"A locket is a type of necklace that has a heart shaped pendant on it that can be opened. On the inside of the locket, pictures can be placed into it."

"That would be perfect. Can you also put Bon Bon and my picture in it?"

"Yes I can. Now what do you want it to be made of? Gold? White gold? Silver? Platinum?"

Thirty Minutes Later

"How much will this cost?", asked Lyra.

"Well Lyra, since it is for your marefriend's birthday, consider it on the house."

"REALLY?!??!?"

"Yes. I have all the money in the world and a few thousand bits won't set me back. I have millions at my home." Lyra's locket was a white gold necklace with a white gold, heart shaped penchant hanging on it. On the inside had her and her marefriend's picture with diamonds surrounding each picture with "To My True Love engraved under the pictures. Making it was pretty easy, mostly due to magic, but the only thing that I had trouble with was the pictures. After a few minutes, I just decided to go through Lyra's memories and printed an image onto the locket from an image in her mind. “Just say happy birthday to her for me."

Five Minutes Later

"NO, YOU CAN'T BUY MY SWORD!!!", I yelled at someone.

"I will pay you ten thousand bits", said Thunderlane.

"GET OUT OF MY STORE OR I WILL SHOOT YOU!!!!"

Another Five Minutes Later

"NO YOU CAN"T TAKE SAMPLES OF DNA FROM ME!!"

Another Five Minutes Later

"What's your reason for wanting a stiletto knife?"

"I want something concealable so I can defend myself when I overtime ", said Derpy.

"Ok, that's valid. That'll be twenty bits."

Five Minutes Later

"GET OUT OF HERE! YOU NEED TO BE EIGHTTEEN YEARS OLD!!"

"I am eighteen."

"GET OUT!"

Five Minutes Later

"Wait a minute, this bit is fake."

"Um. Uh. I can explain." The stallion I was talking too was trying to pay for a sword with gold bits, made of fake gold. He picked up the sword and dashed out of the store. I picked him up with my magic and pulled him back in. I took the sword back and threw the fake bits, including his bits, even his real ones, into the furnace. After that, I literally kicked him out.

Five Minutes Later

"-And have a nice day." I handed the customer her sword and she left.

Then I heard screaming from outside the store. I ran outside and saw the same stallion I kicked out earlier, try to steal the sword from the mare that just left my shop. I took out my PPK and shot the stallion in two of his legs, the front left one and the back right one. I walked back into my store and sent a letter to Celestia, asking for a guard to arrest the stallion.

Enough With Five Minutes, Three hours Later

I regeared and retook up my belongings and walked out of my shop and locked the door. Currently, it was two. The reason I left was I was going to get the Cutie Mark Crusaders from school.

Usually, the CMCs would finish school and then they'd wait to go home. Applebloom would wait half an hour to be picked up by Big Mac or Applejack, Sweetie Belle would wait somewhere between 15-60 minutes, depending on what Rarity was doing at the current moment which could range from something like putting the finishing touches on a dress to finishing a spa appointment, and Scootaloo would wait about an hour and a half to get picked up by a designated guardian from the orphanage. Me picking them up would allow the CMCs to have more fun. I stopped walking when I was about a hundred yards away from the school house.

I knew there was forty five left of class left so I just took my Barrett off of my back and deployed it on the ground. I unloaded the rifle and took the lens off of the scope. I looked at the class through the scope and watched. Today was a normal day for the children, they were learning about single digit multiplication, despite the children being sixteen, seventeen, and eighteen years old.

Then I looked at the individual kids. Most of the Ponies were watching Cheerilee teaching them how to multiply. Sweetie Belle was watching with intent, Applebloom was watching with a look that was a mix between boredom and neutrality, and Scootaloo was flat out asleep. I kept on looking and saw Dinkie Whooves with a look of excitement. What I saw next surprised me, it was Diamond Tiara. She was looking at Scootaloo, with the look that a twelve year old child gets when they have a crush on someone. ‘Well, that's a surprise. This explains so much. A child picks on another, they have a crush on her/him. Let’s see if I can make amends and get the two together.'

Forty Minutes Later

The class ended and the class exited the classroom. Outside, every filly and colt were waiting for their parents/respective guardians. The CMCs ran over to me and the three of them tackled me simultaneously and managed to knock me to the ground. “Hi girls."

Twenty Minutes Later

In that allotted time frame, I managed to get Diamond Tiara to admit that she had a crush on Scootaloo. Even more surprising was the fact that Scootaloo had a crush on Diamond Tiara. The tension between the two was caused by what I thought was right, romance. I also got the CMCs and the two bullies to be friends. Diamond Tiara because of the crush schtick and Silver Spoon because she was a yes girl(someone who just agrees with someone constantly) and she wanted more friends. I also managed to get Diamond Tiara and Scootaloo to go on a little play date. This was possible after I managed to persuade Scootaloo with a bribe.

After that whole ordeal, the six of us(The CMC, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and I) were currently walking through the town. Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara followed the CMCs because they wanted to hang out with them.

"Again, sorry for calling the two those names."

"Why did you say those things to us?", asked Silver Spoon.

"Colts your age shouldn't say works like that", said Diamond Tiara.

"Well you five, let me tell you guys a little about my childhood. Back when I was a kid, I was bullied. This was different from you bullying Scootaloo and her friends, Diamond Tiara. Usually, in an environment like this, when a child bullies another child, that means they like them. This didn't apply to where I lived. I lived in a crime filled nation. I lived in a high crime rate neighborhood. That meant that there were a lot of bad things happening around us. Where I lived, if someone bullied you, they just completely hated you or hated something about you. I had to put up with bullying for several years until I decided to fight back when I was about thirteen years old. That lead to me not being bullied any more. Because I was bullied at a young age, I do not tolerate other bullies, any age or size. That is why I shot your crowns you two, you shouldn't bully others. The reason why I said those type of words is that I was trying to scare you. You shouldn't tease someone about not having parents, it's just plain wrong where I'm from. Also, don't speak with that type of language you five. Don't even think about the words."

"If yah shouldn't speak dose words, why are yah friends talkin with dem words?", asked Applebloom.

"My friends have been through a lot and that type of language is often spoken in our species society before everything happened."

"What happened?", asked Diamond Tiara.

"Well you two, we had the human version of zomb-ponies."

"Z-z-z-z-z-zomb-ponies?"

"Yes. The zombies killed everything. About seven billion of my kind turned into them. Not many people lived. A small handful of people survived. My three friends and I are part of that handful. We had to survive, just the four of us. Nothing fun, just survive. Go out, find food, water, and weapons, kill zombies or even my own kind who decided to take the bad side and become thieves, and then come back alive and not bitten by the zombies or you'll turn into a zombie yourself. Had to kill my own parents with a baseball bat. Killed maybe 8000 zombies and over a hundred of my own kind. What made it worse was what I suffer from daily. Heart and lung problems, muscle pains, joint soreness, and using some of my limbs even hurt. Was not long until Celestia summoned us from our world with a powerful spell. That's how we ended that changeling war. The good thing is that we are finally settling down. My friends and I don't have to worry about much anymore."

"Tran, I am-", started Diamond Tiara.

"WE'RE HERE!!", yelled out Scootaloo. Our destination was the orphanage Scootaloo lived at.

Thirty Minutes Later

After a lot of paperwork, I was officially Scootaloo's parent. The reasons being her agreeing to go on a little play date with Diamond Tiara and for her to admit she had a little crush on Diamond Tiara. “Scootaloo, welcome to the family."

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-" started the Crusaders.

Fifteen Minutes Of Deafening Child Happiness Later

To stop the happy squeel, I shot a round into the air. "Crusaders, I used my guns without hearing protection and that is probably safer to my hearing than your happiness." Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon on the other hand, they were still covering their ears with their hooves. "You two can take your hooves off of your ears now."

"WHAT?!", they both yelled. I went over to both of them and pulled their hooves off of their ears.

"Let’s go. Who wants to choose what we do first?"

Five Minutes Of Arguing Later

For some reason, kids really like arguing over places and things they wanted to do. The five of them argued for quite a while until I said that Applebloom was going to choose.

"Let’s go to Sweet Apple Acres!", said Applebloom.

"WHAT!?!??! Why would we-"Diamond Tiara started.

"Don't worry Tiara. In time, you will get your turn. You just have to be patient", I said.

"Fine but I hate being patient."

"Diamond Tiara, being patient is needed to master skills in life. Patience is needed for everything. It is something needed for life. It is only natural. Now, let’s fly to Sweet Apple Acres."

"Fly?", asked everypony minus Scootaloo.

"Yes." *SNAP* I changed into my alicorn self and lifted the five of them onto my back. “Hold on."

I quickly flew to Sweet Apple Acres at a moderate speed of about sixty miles an hour. Normally, a sudden acceleration from zero to sixty miles an hour would knock anyone from their seats. I casted another spell but this time on the five of them to hold them in place. Just one more thing, that sudden acceleration would also put out major G's.

A few minutes passed before I neared Sweet Apple Acres. Once I landed in the farm, I saw Big Mac and Applejack struggling to remove a dead tree's stump.

"That. Was. AWESOME!!!!!", said Scootaloo.

"LETS DO THAT AGAIN!!!", said Silver Spoon.

"That was like riding in your wagon", said Scootaloo

"Come, follow me."

I walked up to them, still having five fillies on my back, and tapped Applejack on the back.

"Whatcha doin?", I asked.

"We're tryin tah remove dis here stump", Applejack replied.

"Can we help?", asked Applebloom.

"Why would we want to help?", asked Diamond Tiara.

"Because it is polite and nice", I said.

"Yes yah can help", said Applejack.

"Ok. If we are going to help, can you and Big Mac step away from the stump? I know an easy way to remove that dead stump easily."

"Eeyup", said Big Mac.

The two of them walked away from the stump. I walked to the stump and placed my backpack on it. I took out my bowie knife and dug a small hole in the ground right under the stump. I went through my backpack and took out a detonator, a blasting cap, and five pounds of C4 (which is overkill in real life, unless the tree is wider than four feet). I placed the explosive device and buried it in the hole I made. I picked up my backpack and walked back to the others and said,"Ok, this is how I remove tree stumps." *SNAP* I casted a force field around the tree and the space three feet around it. *SNAP* I casted another spell that made the color of the force field purple. I went through my backpack and took out several ear buds. “Here, put these in your ears." I gave each of the CMC's and the Apple siblings a set of ear buds, which they put into their ear shortly thereafter."Ok, this is how I am going to remove the stump with some explosives. Before the two of you say otherwise, I made a force field around the stump to protect your other apple trees so don't get pissed, Jackie and Mac. Noooooooow, which of you five want to pressed the button that makes the tree explode?"

"OOOOO!! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME!", the five of them said.

"Calm down the five of you. How about all five of you press it at the same time?" I was responded with a nod from the five of them. “Now, I'll count down backwards from three. After I say one, press it." The looks on the five of them were filled with excitement that would make a painting of a sad clown smile.

"READY!?! THREE! TWO! ONE!" *BOOM* The spot where the stump stood was completely obliterated. The explosion was probably heard from the other end of Ponyville. I released the spell that held the force field after the dust in the force field settled.

"I think I want to go to Sweet Apple Acres more often now", said Diamond Tiara.

"And that is how I remove tree stumps."

Five Minutes Later

This time was Silver Spoon's choice to choose the next destination. Where she ended up choosing was a candy shop that was located near the center of Ponyville. I was guided by the five of them as I flew towards the shop. When I spotted a building that possessed the description of the store, I flew down and landed in front of the store. On the front of the shop and towards the top was a sign that stated,"Bon Bon's Candytorium."

I though in my mind. I walked inside, still with the five of them on my back, barely clearing the door mostly due to me being six feet tall on all fours in alicorn form. The door opening rang a bell that was hung over the door.

"Welcome to Bon Bon's Candytorium. How m- PRINCESS CELESTIA!?!?", said a greenish-gray coated pony with a blue mane that had a large dark pink stripe running through it and a cutie mark of three wrapped candies. Beside her was a sea foam green pony with a light green mane and a cutiemark of a lyre. The both of them quickly bowed.

"Lyra, Bon Bon, I'm not Celestia. Her mane is violet, green, blue, and purple. My mane is white. Celestia doesn't wear clothes. I do. Now, I AM NOT CELESTIA!!! I AM TRAN!!! Lyra, you know who I am." The two of them looked up and examined my appearance.

"Oh yeah. You're taller", said Lyra.

"Eeyup."

"Sorry about that. Not too often you see an alicorn. How may I help you?", said Bon Bon.

"These five want some candy. Don't choose too much or the candy will upset your stomachs." I pushed the five of them forward with a part of my wing that would not have cut them. The five of them went around and looked for candy while I walked over to Bon Bon."Hey Bon Bon, I have some candy from my world. Would you like to try some?"

"Does it have meat? I know you are omnivorous. I have heard that you like meat over vegetables", said Bon Bon.

"No it doesn't have meat. Yes I like meat over vegebles (not a typo, I call vegetables vegebles)."

"Sure, let’s try some human candy."

I took off my backpack again and took out an MRE that had Skittles and gave Bon Bon the skittles.

"How do I eat this?", asked Bon Bon."It's made of plastic."

"Bon Bon, the plastic is a wrapper that protects the candy from getting ruined." I placed the rest of the MRE back into my backpack and took the skittles from her hoof and opened it with my hidden blade(hooves can grip schtuff well). I poured some out onto the table. She picked one up and looked at it. After a while, she ate it. Then another. Then a second. Then a third. Lyra picked one up and tried it, only to eat more like Bon Bon. A few seconds passed and all of the Skittles were gone. “Done yet?"

"This is AMAZING! HOW DO YOU MAKE THIS!?!??!?!", Bon Bon yelled.

"The ingredients are on the back of the wrapper." I picked up the wrapper and pointed at it with the hidden blade.

She stared at it while saying," Sugar, corn syrup, hydrogenated palm kernel oil; less than 2% of citric acid, tapioca dextrin, modified corn starch, natural and artificial flavors, colors red forty lake, titanium dioxide, blue two lake, red forty, blue one, blue one lake, yellow five lake, yellow five, yellow six, yellow six lake), sodium citrate, and carnauba wax? I don't even know any of these except for the sugar and corn syrup. How is this even possible to make?"

"To make you feel stupid, before my species died out, we made this schtuff by the ton."

"You know what these are?"

"Yes. No I will not show you how to make the candy."

"But it taste soooooooooooo goooooooooooooood", both Bon Bon and Lyra said.

"No."

"Pleeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeee", they both said with puppy dog eyes.

I stared right at their eyes. “God the cuteness. NO! END OF DISCUSSION!"

"Dang it, he's immune to the eyes."

Fifty Bits Later

"Happy birthday Bon Bon. PEACE!!!" The six of us walked out of the store and I lifted the five fillies onto my back again. “It’s time for Scootaloo's choice."

"LETS FIND RAINBOW DASH!!", yelled out Scootaloo.

"WHAT?!?!", said Diamond Tiara.

"Diamond, just be patient."

"UGHH!"

"Also, I was going to start her lessons on how to fight today and you five could learn a thing or two from it."

I took flight again with the five fillies eating their candy on my back. Scootaloo had three chocolate bars called Rainbow Crunch. Sweetie Belle was licking one of those oversized lollipops that was bigger than her head. Applebloom had a candied apple. Diamond Tiara had a jawbreaker the size of a softball. Silverspoon had a small bag of bon bons.

I kept on flying until I saw Rainbow Dash bucking clouds. I flew up to her and said, “HI Dashie."

"Hi Tran", she replied while bucking a cloud, making it explode.

"Dash, I think I want to start your lessons today."

"Sorry. I have to buck the rest of these clouds." I unslung the M4 off of my back and shot around me in a circle, effectively ridding the sky of all clouds. “I guess I'm done."

I flew to the ground with Rainbow Dash following me."Time for the five of you to get off my back." The five of them jumped off of my back. *SNAP* I turned myself back into a human and i began taking my gear off. I then started to take all of my clothes off too until I was left with my polo and black pants.

"Tran, do you always wear a blue polo?", asked Rainbow Dash.

"Yes."

"Isn't that going to be hard to fight wearing?"

"No."

"But it's a dress shirt."

"And?"

"You don't wear dress clothes when fighting."

"And?"

"That's it."

"And?"

"Tran."

"And?"

"Stop."

"And?", asked Scootaloo.

"Scootaloo, you too."

"And?", asked Sweetie Belle.

"Sweetie Belle, you too."

"And?", asked Applebloom.

"Not you too."

"And?", asked Silver spoon.

"I don't even know who you are."

"And?", asked Diamond Tiara.

"STOP SAYING AND!!!!!"

The six of us paused for a few seconds before we all, minus Rainbow Dash, said, “And?"

"AAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!"

"I think that's enough guys. Come on. Hey Dashie, are you ready for the lessons?"

"YES!", said Rainbow Dash.

"Can we do this with you?", asked Scootaloo.

"NO", said Rainbow Dash.

"Yes", I said.

"WHAT!??!?! BUT THEY'RE-", Rainbow Dash started.

"Dashie, let them."

"They're kids."

"I am younger than them. Let them."

"Fine."

"Now that I can start, here is the first lesson. Whoever is trying to steal my backpack run away before I kill you."

"What?", asked Rainbow Dash.

There was a pony trying to take my backpack, which was next to a bush. He tried running away with my backpack but I picked him up with my magic and brought him in front of me.

"Give me one reason, besides the fact that there are kids here, why I should kill you."

"Ummm. Because you don't want to kill me?", he said.

"Nah. let’s just use him as a punching bag."

"WHAT?!??! PLEASE DON'T-", he started before I duct taped his mouth and tied him to a tree.

"We'll use him later. Now, again with the first lesson. This is one of the most important things I will teach you. Breathing."

"WHAT??!?!? I already know how to breathe."

"Dashie, if you want me to teach you, you have to be patient and listen to me."

"How is this lesson going to help me in how to fight?"

"Rainbow Dash, you can't talk anymore unless I tell you or I will stop teaching you for the day. Breathing. This is one of the most important things I can teach you. In a fight, you must control your breathing in a fight. When you control your breathing, you control yourself. This is important because you need to focus. When you are fighting, your body will release adrenalin to help you fight or you might get in a state of anger or rage. However, even though you get stronger when this happens, it can make you lose in a fight. When you get adrenalin or angry, you become sloppier. You get more simple when you perform a move. You control your breathing, you can control your focus."

Several Breathing Exercises Later

"Next lesson. Rainbow Dash, attack me."

"Really? Ok." Rainbow Dash lunged at me. I sidestepped and she ran right into a tree.

"That is the lesson. Hey girls, can you tell me why Rainbow Danger Dash completely failed with that?"

"Umm. Is it because yah didn't let her?", said Applebloom

"Because you dodged?", said Diamond Tiara.

"Is it because you are just as awesome as Rainbow Dash?", said Scootaloo.

"Is it because she tried to tackle you down?", asked Silver Spoon.

"Correct Silver Spoon. That is what she did wrong. RAINBOW DASH COME BACK HERE!!!"

She walked back and went in front of me. She tried to punch me in the face with the hoof but I sidestepped and she stumbled around, trying to regain her balance.

"Ok Dash, you can stop."

She tried to punch me one more time but I just grabbed hoof and stumbled back a bit. “You pack quite a punch Dashie." I pushed her hoof away and pointed her to the direction of the fillies. She joined the group of sitting fillies and just plomped down on her rump and looked at me like the other five. “Silver Spoon, you are correct why Rainbow Dash failed horribly. She tried to lunge at me and failed. This is wrong in fighting. What she did was she tried to hit me with all her might. When you are fighting you shouldn't focus on strength. Instead you must focus on accuracy. Now think of this. What is better? To try to punch something with all your strength and fail several times or you actually punch something once and not miss? Obviously, it is better to actually hit your target. When you punch, don't punch with all your strength but try to aim where accurately. In most fights, your enemy will try to fight you with all their strength. If you keep dodging, he or she will keep on missing and he won't land a punch on you. Then you are trying to punch him but instead of trying for strength like the enemy, you will actually manage to harm him. Now Rainbow Dash, try to punch me without all your strength but with accuracy."

Rainbow Dash walked in front of me and tried to punch me with her hoof. Instead for trying to lunge at me with her full body weight, she tried for accuracy. Unlike the last attempt of hitting me, she managed to graze my side as I dodged her punch.

"Much better Dash. This time, you actually managed to touch me. Do you five girls want to try?"

One Hour Later

"Ok. I think that is enough", I said as Scootaloo punched me in the chest.

"We actually managed to hit you", said Scootaloo.

"Yeah. I bet I can beat you in a fight now", said Rainbow Dash.

"Don't get too cocky girls. I am going easy on you six and i can't use any of my counter moves. That's enough for the day girls."

"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww", the six of them started. I regeared and redressed myself and went back on all four legs.

"Come, you five come with me." The five fillies climbed onto my back as I crouched down on the ground.

"Diamond Tiara, it's your turn for the next choice."

"YES!! FINALLY! Let’s go to the spa", she said.

"WHAT!?!??! WHY WOULD WE GO TO-", Scootaloo started.

"Scootaloo, you already got a turn. It is only fair if she gets a turn too."

"Fine."

I flew to the same spa that I went to with Rarity and stopped at the entrance. I walked inside with the five on my back.

"Hello. How may I help you? OH! Hello Tran", said Aloe.

"Hi Aloe. Am I allowed to just walk in?"

"Of course but it will cost more than an appointment."

"It's fine. I have the money. These five want to go to the spa", I said while lifting the five of them off of my back.

"That will be two hundred fifty bits."

I took out three gold bits and handed it to her. “Keep the change."

Forty Minutes Later

"Have a nice day", said Lotus.

I walked out of the spa with the five of them on my back. “Well Scootaloo, we found out why you can't fly." In the spa, after a spa worker that was massaging Scootaloo finished, she called for me and told me that Scootaloo was malnourished.

"Tran, what does malnourished means?", asked Scootaloo.

"Well Scoots, malnourished means that when your body does not get enough vitamins and nutrients for it to grow."

"Does this mean I have to eat a bunch of fruits and vegetables to fly?"

"Yes but I also have to find nutrient supplements for you. Don't be excited because it will take a while. After you do fly, then you can be excited."

"Ok. Tran, I have a question. If you adopted me, does this you my dad?"

"Don't think of it like that Scoots. Think of me as your younger brother. When is your birthday?"

"On Nightmare Night."

"See, you are seven months older than me. Just call me your younger brother. Although you can't boss me around all the time."

"Fine."

"Hey Sweetie Belle, it's your turn to choose where we go."

"Can we go for our cutie marks?", she asked.

"Sure. Which one?"

Sweetie Belle whispered something into Scootaloo's ear, who whispered something into Applebloom's ear. Then the three of them yelled, “CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS JUNGLE EXPLORERS!!!!!"

This in turn made me near deaf. The three of them yelling that out was probably louder than the Barrett being fired. And a .50 cal is loud.

I landed on the ground and said to the three CMCs,"Please don't yell that loud when I fly. Since you three want to become cutie mark crusader explorers, why don't we go explore the Everfree."

"WHAT!??!?!", yelled out Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.

"Why not?", asked Scootaloo.

"It's dirty and muddy", Diamond Tiara said.

"It's dangerous", said Silver Spoon.

"Blah blah blah. The weather moves on its own. The plants grow. The animals take care of themselves. I get it. My world is always like that. Except everything is extreme. Ever seen someone get killed by hail? Exactly. Besides, you five will be safe as long as you're with me. I have been through worse things than what's in the Everfree forest."

"But we'll get dirty."

"Just stay on my back."

"Fine", the both of them said.

The six of us walked towards the large forest in front of us. The CMCs were running around the forest looking at anything that seemed to move while Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon sat on my back looking at the sights. This went on until I noticed several of the plants. Most of the plants in Equestria represented most simple plants found in America. What I saw on the ground was one of the must need plants for herbalist and common Asians, Aloe Vera. I went where the plants were and but several of them with my bowie knife before floating them into my backpack.

"Tran, what are you doing?", asked Sweetie Belle.

"Well Sweetie Belle, I am collecting some plants."

"Why?"

"Because they could be helpful."

"How?", asked Scootaloo who walked over to see what we were talking about.

"Well little ones, back on my world, my parents were the type of parents who knew how to treat anything. Burns, yes. Rash, yes. Flu, yes. Muscle soreness, yes. Pain, yes. Just about anything that won't kill you. This plant is called Aloe Vera. It is something that can be used on many different things. They also knew how to do many things. If you ever needed help with something that wasn't involved with academics."

"Where are they now?"

"I bashed my dad's face in with a baseball bat while he was trying to eat my mom. Then I bashed my mom's face in with the same bat I used to kill my dad." The five of them stared at me until I said, “Back on my world there were zombies. My dad became one of them and I had to kill him. My mom was going to turn into one of them so I had to kill her before she turned into one. My world was a dangerous one. Don't judge me for doing that, I just did what I had to do to survive."

"Where did the zombies come from?", asked Scootaloo.

"No one knows. It just started out of nowhere and killed everyone. Well, let’s keep on going."

The five of them resumed their normal selves and continued in exploring the forest. A few minutes later, Applebloom walked to me and asked," Tran, wut type o plant is dis?" The plant Applebloom held up to me was a small branch that had three green leaves attached to it in her mouth. I immediately took the plant out of her mouth and threw it to the ground. I took out a piece of Aloe Vera and cut the skin off of it to reveal the jelly-like inside.

"Applebloom, hold this in your mouth." I placed the Aloe Vera into her mouth only for her to spit it out.

"BLEGH! Dis taste terrible. Why should ah hold dis in mah mouth."

"Because that was poison ivy. Now put this piece in your mouth", I said as I cut a new piece of Aloe Vera. This time, she held the piece in her mouth. “Don’t swallow that or it will poison you."

Then Scootaloo and Sweetie ran into me panting. “Tran *PANT* there *PANT* are *PANT* timber *PANT* wolves*PANT* coming*PANT*", said Scootaloo. I pulled out my sword and waited for something to come. I waited for a few minutes but nothing came.

"Hmmm. Nothing here Scootaloo."

"I swear, there was timberwolves."

"Well there was nothing here. I mean, what could have you possibly seen that would have been mistaken as a timberwolf?"

*ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAR*

"Murphy, mot ngai con kim anh loi con dit anh(one day I will find you and kill you[Vietnamese])."

I lifted the Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon off of my back.*SNAP* I turned myself back into human and pulled out my 1911 with my right hand with my bowie knife in the left hand. I walked forward with the weapons in hand. The five fillies staying behind me.

A manticore ran out of the forage in front of me and tackled me down, knocking the weapons out of my hands. The five fillies ran for cover. I got back up and faced the manticore. The manticore was literally twice as tall as me. It had its tale raised and was swiping at me with its paws. I kept on dodging its tale and paws while I looked around where I dropped my pistol and knife. Then I found them. They were behind the manticore. Oh noes.' The manticore tried to hit me with its paw again and I rolled on the ground, dodging and moving towards my knife and pistol. I picked them back up and faced the manticore again. It tried to sting me with its tale again and I side stepped to the right. I faced my left and saw the manticore's tail being retracted. I raised my bowie knife and brought it down onto the manticore's tail, slicing the stinger end and a foot of it off. The manticore roared in pain as I aimed the 1911 in my left hand at its head. Three booms sounded out and the manticore fell over dead.

The manticore finally dead, I walked over to where the stinger was and picked it up. I sliced off the extra part of the tail and placed the stinger into my backpack."Hey girls, you can come out now." The five of them walked out of there hiding spots, being behind trees, and ran towards me."Are you five alright?"

"Ah'm fine", said Applebloom.

"Me too", said Sweetie Belle.

"Me three", said Scootaloo.

"Yeah, I'm fine", said Silver Spoon.

"Nooooo. My hooves got dirty", said Diamond Tiara.

*SNAP* I turned myself back into an alicorn and magically cleaned Diamond Tiara's hooves. I lifted the five of them onto my back and continued to walk, only to be interrupted by someone.

*Where were those booms? Who sent this manticore's doom?"

"Oh noes. Zecora", I said.

"Who might you be? Did you cause those blasts heard by me?"

"Do you always rhyme?"

"What are you talking about?. You don't need to pout."

"God I hate rhyming. Ok, if you always talk like this, then what is the this?", I said while holding up an orange.

"That my friend, is the fruit that goes by the name of orange. It is-", Zecora started then stopped.

"HAAAAAAA! I GOT YOU!!!"

"Damnit, youse got me", Zecora said in a joh-sey(yes joh-sey, the fake way Jersey is said by people with Jersey accents) accent.

"You gotta really stop rhyming all the time. Sometimes it makes no sense."

"Rhyming is fun. Now who are youse? I've never seen an alicorn before besides the princesses."

"Well, I was originally summoned by the princesses from my world with my three friends when we were in combat. We were originally a different species. We were originally a biped species that were omnivorous and highly advanced in our technology. We were originally surviving a zombie infested world. I was the leader out of the four of us."

"That's an interesting story, now why did you stop me from rhyming?"

"I hate rhyming with most my life."

"What were those small explosions?"

"They were one of my weapons. My weapons are basically advanced forms of you ponies' wheel lock firearms. They are capable of firing at a much higher speed and with much more power. I have one that completely makes you explode. Those booms you heard were me using the weapons to kill a manticore I encountered earlier."

"YOUSE KILLED A MANTICORE!??!?!"

"Yes I did." Then I heard noise from behind me."Ssssssssssshhhhhhhhh." I pulled my 1911, Glock 18, and desert eagle out with my magic and faced where the noise came from. Out of a bush, twelve timberwolves jumped out. The pistols I held up in the air sprayed at the timberwolves. Within a few seconds, the timberwolves were dead. “Well I have to bring these five back to their families. Applebloom, you can spit that Aloe Vera out now." I holstered the pistols. By now, it was six in the afternoon.

"BYE!!!!!!!", said the five fillies. I flew out of the forest and back towards Ponyville. I brought Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara back to their respective families and then I started to fly towards Sweet Apple Acres. Once I landed in the farm, I let Applebloom off of my back and she ran into her home. The three of us went to the CMCs tree house and Scootaloo got her scooter which I folded up and placed into my backpack.

I took flight again and made my way towards Carousel Boutique. Once I reached the fashion store I landed on the ground and went inside. When I walked inside, Rarity said," Welcome to Carousel Boutique, where every garment is chic, unique and magnifique." She then faced me and said, “Oh, hi Tran."

"Hi Rarity. I brought Sweetie Belle back."

"Oh. What did you do with her?"

"She can tell you later. Now, can you make a costume for Scootaloo for Nightmare Night?"

"Sure. What do you want it to be?", Rarity asked Scootaloo.

Five Minutes Later

"Now just hold still and-", Rarity said.

Five Minutes Later

"...And just hold this-", Rarity said.

Five Minutes Later

"Are you done yet?", I asked.

Five Minutes Later

"...Now almost-", Rarity said.

Five Minutes Later

"FINALLY!!!", complained Scootaloo. The two of us walked out of the store and Scootaloo was holding a bag containing her costume in her mouth.

"It wasn't that long Scootaloo. One time I had to wait nine hours before I could start and killing this one hoard of zombies."

"But you are you. Your Tran."

"Scootaloo, have you been listening to my friends?"

"Yes?"

"Good."

"Well, time for you to come to your new home Scootaloo."

"Where is it?"

"Just follow me and you'll find out."

"Ok?"

The five of us continued to walk. What Scootaloo didn't know was the fact that my home, bunker as some people would say, was right at the edge of the Everfree forest. The two of us continued walked until we were on the outskirts of the Everfree forest.

"Tran, why are we going to the Everfree forest?", she asked.

"You'll find out."

I walked into the Everfree forest and right where my home was.

"Tran, is your house in the Everfree?"

"Eeyup, it is right here." I stopped right in front of where the hidden door was and just stood there.

"Where?", asked Scootaloo.

"Right here."

"But I don't see anything."

I took out a key to the home and gave it to Scootaloo. “It is right here." I took the cover that hid the door and showed the bunker door. “Scootaloo, every time you come here, you need to use this key. From now on, every time you come home and you can't find it, just look at the edge of the Everfree forest. The ground and dirt around the home is in the Everfree forest and it is unleveled. You'll know when you find it when you find an area in the Everfree forest that is completely devoid of all trees and plant life and just contains dirt. Ok?"

"Yes."

"Would you like to open the door?"

"YES!!!"

The both of us walked to the entrance to the door and Scootaloo was too tall to even reach the keyhole for the door. I walked away from the entrance picked up a large rock with my magic, shaped it into a small pair of stairs, and went back to the entrance. I placed it on the ground and Scootaloo walked on it and opened the door. The minute Scootaloo walked inside, she began squealing A LOT.

Five Minutes Of Squealing Later

"Ok Scootaloo, this is your new home."

"How big is it in here?", she asked.

"My home bunker thing is four stories in total and it is capable of being a home for maybe a couple hundred ponies. The first floor is for living. The second floor is meant for food. The third floor is meant for entertainment and the last floor is where I store my weapons so don't go in there. Plus you can't even go in there without the correct key so don't even try. Would you like to choose your bed?"

Thirty Minutes Of Room Customization Later

"Do you want to see the other floors?", I asked.

Two Hour Later

In that allotted time, I showed Scootaloo the four floors of the bunker. In the first room, she went into nearly every single room. On the second floor, we started Scootaloo on an appropriate diet to enable her to gain bone growth. On the third floor, she tested riding her scooter on the track. On the last floor, I didn't let her touch anything or move much due to the fact that I literally had explosives lying at several locations. I also placed the manticore stinger with the weapons if I wanted to use the poison another time.

"Scootaloo, let’s call it a day now."

"What? Why?"

"It’s a little later for kids and I haven't slept for five days."

"Fine."

Scootaloo went into her room and I went inside too. Scootaloo went into her bed and I flipped off the lights. “Good night Scootaloo."

"Good night Tran."

I left for my room and took off my vest, backpack, and weapons, except for the 1911 on my thigh and I placed my PPK under my pillow. I took off my boots and socks and went into my bed. I lied down in the bed despite the fact that it was about seven in the afternoon. I lied there thinking about the peaceful week I had. ‘Let’s hope nothing happens as I stay in Equestria.'
