The entire garden party was silent, looking at us with worried looks. I slowly bent down to her level and glared right back. As I reached her level I stopped moving for several seconds as I studied her. Her glared intensified and I swear that I could feel my skin start to burn.

“You are just as much at fault for what happened to him as he is.” I said after a few more seconds of staring. She took a step back and shook her head and looked at me with a glare that would have scared the devil himself.

“And just what does that supposed to mean?” She asked in a voice that was full of venom. I slowly stood up and my eyes started to change to a deep yellowish gold. There were thunder clouds slowly circling above that were made out of pure magical rage. I locked eyes with her to see that she was scared as were the other ponies.

“That means that if you hadn’t raised him to be a pompous asshat he would still be here as an adult and wouldn’t need to go through childhood again.” I boomed out with a voice that would have scared the Elder Gods. I slowly walked towards the retreating form of Silver Lining. When she bumped into a shrub I stopped advancing.

“If you tamper with that childs raising I will personally make you life a living hell.” I whispered out as I made the clouds disperse and walked over to a shocked Fancy Pants. I stopped in front of him and bowed.

“I am sorry that I let my anger get the better of me and disrupted the garden party. I should probably leave now so as to not scare any more ponies.” I said still bowing to the pony that had invited me to the party in the first place. Hearing my plans of leaving he quickly snapped out of his daze and shook his head.

“Oh you must simply stay that was the most interesting thing I have ever seen. I mean it was unexpected but you don’t have to leave because of it.” Said Fancy Pants as he started to lead me over to the food table again. I just shrugged my shoulders and followed him to the table. And what I saw there made my mouth water.

“Oh my, you have Sweet Apple Acres goods here.” I said in a voice that was barely over a whisper. I looked at Fancy Pants who I saw had a smile of his own. I walked up to the table and grabbed some hard apple cider and an apple tart.

“Yes we do after miss Applejack catered the royal wedding. We taste tested some of her wares and we found that even the most common apple dish made by the Apple family tasted like ambrosia.” Fancy Pants said as he picked up a slice of apple pie. I frowned at the greek reference. But I ignored it and started to sip my drink as we started walking around and I saw Octavia playing her cello. I looked at Fancy Pants and saw he was looking at me. I motioned us over to Octavia. We turned and started to walk towards the stage. I climbed up onto the stage and tapped Octavia on the shoulder to get her attention. When I was sure that I had said attention I leaned down and whispered into her ear. After a few seconds of whispering she had a pleased look on her face and she stepped off the stage. I then addressed the group of ponies that  were watching me closely.

“Hello I am as you probably know Paradox and I will play you a piece that was made by the greatest musician on my home world. The song is named Moonlight Sonata. I dedicated this to Luna my soon to be wife.” After I said all this I snapped my fingers and brought forth a piano. It was solid black and had ivory keys. I sat down, slipped into a trance and started to play.

As I finished the last note of the song I came out of the trance and noticed that Luna was standing next to me with a smile on her face and tears in her eyes. I got off the chair and knelt down and gave her a loving hug. After a few seconds of hugging I stood up and walked over to the front of the stage and bowed to the ponies receiving an applause from all but one pony.....won’t mention names.

“Thank you noble class of Canterlot it has been a blast playing for you tonight.” As I said as I spun around and pointed at the piano making it shoot up into the air and once in had reached a suitable height it exploded into a bought of fireworks. I lead Luna down from the stage and into the main part of the party. Octavia walked up to me and smiles at Luna with a friendly grace.

“Hello Princess I would like to borrow Paradox for a moment I would like to talk about him working the Canterlot Orchestra.” She said as she beamed at me with a smile and I swear I could see Money symbols in her eyes. Luna was going to say something but I beat her to it.

“It can wait till the morning Miss Octavia. Tonight I will be having a good evening with Luna.” I said as I walked away with a frown on my face. Luna followed after me with a shocked look on her face. When she caught up to me she found me pacing around the the entrance of the gardens away from the ponies.

“What is the matter my dear Paradox?” Asked Luna as she rubbed my side with her head. I looked down at her a smiled. I hugged her for all that I was werth.

“That is a bit of music that moves me deeply. Every time that I hear it I get a little sad.” I said as I hugged her. I simply hugged her for a few seconds and then let go and wiped my eyes of any moisture.

“Lets return to the party shall we?” I asked as I started to walk amongst the ponies again. I walked over to the food table and grabbed a bottle of water and sat down at one of the tables. Luna came over and sat next to me. She leaned up against me and asked the question that I knew would come eventually.

“Paradox how is it that you know how to always make me smile when I am feeling down.” She asked as I chuckled to myself as the readers thought that she was going to ask how I knew so much about their world.

“Well my dear Luna, I know because you are the most beautiful mare in the world and I will never make you cry.” I said as I put my arm around her shoulder and pulled her into me. We sat there the rest of the party talking about nothing in particular.

I wake up the next morning and groaning about the fact that I can get drunk off of almost no alcohol. I run into the bathroom and puke into the toilet. I spit a few times and slowly crawl into the shower. After a few minutes of warm shower I come to. I hear humming to my immediate right. I look over to see Luna who is now laughing at me.

“You don’t take alcohol very well do you?” Asked Luna to which I simply nod my head as speaking is not a very good idea at the moment. I start to wash Luna and she starts to wash me. The steam starts to swirl and last’s night's passion is rekindled.

After we finished in the shower we teleported to the main eating hall. I walked over and sat down at the table and Luna sat down across from me. As her flank hit the chair Celestia, Cadence, and Shining Armor walks into the eating hall. They sat  down around us Celestia at the head of the table, Cadence sat down next to Luna and Shining sat next to me. A waiter came over to the table and got our orders, we all ordered pancakes.

“So Paradox what are you going to do today?” Asked Celestia with a happy voice. I looked up at her as the food came out of the kitchen and the head chef sat down next to Shining with his own food, he had a bowl of oatmeal.

“I have to go pick up something from ponyville library.” I said as I sipped my orange juice that had no pulp. I looked over to Celestia who had a curious face plastered onto her muzzle. I looked at her and groaned as I knew she won’t leave me alone until her curiosity was fed.

“You won’t leave me alone till I tell you what I am getting are you?” I asked Celestia as she looked at me. She looked thoughtful for a few moments then playfully shook her head. I groaned again as I knew this would be awkward.

“I am going to go get a mage staff from the Golden Oak Library.” I said just above a whisper. Celestia looked shocked at first but her face slowly changed to a glare.

“Why would you need such a high level focal point?” Asked Celestia as she glared at me. I shook my head. I looked at Celestia and started my exclamation.

“Celestia do you realize how magic my is working. I don't have a natural focal point like you ponies. I am just pushing out magic with an order to change the world. I cant directly control the power that I am using. I'll need to have something that won’t shatter at the most simple spell, so I need a mage staff.” I said slowly so they would see the reason behind this. Celestia sighed and looked down for several seconds and looked back at me. She looked at me with gentle sternness.

“I will trust you.....Please don’t abuse that trust.” She said with a small defeated voice. I walked over to her and grabbed her up in a hug.

“Don’t worry your pretty little head about it.” I said as I set her down. I then walked to the door and opened it to show the hills outside of ponyville. I walked through the door and outside of the castle and closed the door making it disappear. I then proceeded to walk toward Ponyville and started to sing a song to myself.

“Shipwreck in a sea of faces

There's a dreamy world up there

Dear friends in higher places

Carry me away from here

Travel light, let the sun eclipse you

'Cause your flight is about to leave

And there's more to this brave adventure

Than you'd ever believe

Birds-eye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you

Wide eyes will always brighten the blue

Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery

'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind

And take to the sky (you take to the sky)

On the heels of war and wonder

There's a stormy world up there

You can't whisper above the thunder

But you can fly anywhere

Purple burst of paper birds

This picture paints a thousand words

So take a breath of myth and mystery

And don't look back

Birds-eye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you

Wide eyes will always brighten the blue

Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery

'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind

And take to the sky (you take to the sky)

There's a realm above the trees

Where the lost are finally found

Touch your feathers to the breeze

And leave the ground

Birds-eye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you

Wide eyes will always brighten the blue

Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery

'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind

And take to the sky.” As I finished the song I heard a scream and several ponies ran away from me. I just shrugged my shoulders and continued to walk into ponyville. I walked by the Sugarcube Corner and I heard muttering and I looked over to the window to see Pinkie Pie smiling at me. She then proceeded to teleport into my face.

“Hello Paradox how are you today I should throw you a party because you're new in town and you will make many friends.” She said a mile a minute. I just got down and picked her up and walked into the Sugarcube Corner, walked past the scared group of ponies and set Pinkie down behind the counter. I looked at her stern like and looked over the whole room.

“Two things Pinkie Pie.......” The whole group of ponies started crying out Pinkie’s name, sobbing about how they're going to miss her, and when her funeral will be.

“A good employee doesn't leave their place of work unless getting an ok from their boss, and can I have a cinnamon roll smothered in peanut butter.” I said with a big smile at the ponies who looked at me funny. At this point Rainbow Dash flew through the front door, yelling about some monster.

“Hey monster I am Rainbow Dash and I am gonna.......Oh hey there Paradox what brings you down from Canterlot?” Asked a blushing blue mare as I slowly ate my cinnamon roll. I smiled at Rainbow Dash and walked up to her. I bent down booped her nose.

‘This is going to be a fun day’ I thought to myself as she looked at me with a weird expression on her face.
