It has been three days since I went into town. My resemblance of a wolf has gotten worse; my tail now looked like a cross between a wolf’s and a pony’s, and my coat’s texture also now looked more like a wolf’s. Tonight was nightmare night; I figured I would ask Princess Luna if she could help me it was a long shot but I had to try.
Night came and a full moon rose above the clouds. The transformation this time was less painful than before but it still hurt a lot. As I walked through the town I realized most ponies thought that I just casted an illusion spell on myself, but I still kept to the shadows.
“Howler is that you?” a familiar voice asked. I turned around it was Twilight, I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came
out so I just nodded my head yes.
“Come with me.” Twilight said in extreme urgency.
I followed her through the crowds of ponies until she stopped me and told me to wait. When she came back
Luna was with her.
“Howler come on we’re going to the library.” Twilight said. On the way to the library Luna would occasionally look over her
shoulder at me. From what I could tell from her expression she had mix feelings of disgust, concern, and appreciation if I
had to guess it was because I was one of the few ponies who liked to sleep in the day and stay up at night.
“Spike send a letter to Celestia we need her here immediately.” Twilight said Spike immediately got a scroll wrote something down and sent it.
A few minutes late Princess Celestia arrived.
“Why have you called me here Twilight.” Celestia asked
“We have an emergency.” Luna said looking at me.
“We have laws dealing with these problems Luna.” Celestia said
“But he’s just a kid.” Twilight protested
“He isn’t a pony anymore.” Celestia said
“But….” Twilight started to protest but soon realized she wasn’t going to win.
While they continued to bicker I left for the mansion. I stayed there for the night and in the morning I changed
back. I packed my bag and left for the train station. I snuck onboard and hid in the baggage cart. A few hours later the
train stopped, I got out and found myself in Canterlot.
“Hey kid.” A guard said as he spotted me. I ran away the guard followed.
“HEY STOP.” He yelled out. I ran down an ally way which ended in a dead end.
“Alright kid come with me.” The guard said I didn’t have a chose so I did.
We walked back to the train station where I got put back on the train going back to Ponyville on account of not
having any parents or a ticket or somepony waiting for me. A few hours later I was back in Ponyville where Twilight was
waiting for me.
“Howler where have you been, do you know how much trouble you are in?” Twilight asked me sounding caring but at the
same time royally pissed off.
I remained silent and walked with her to the library where Luna and Celestia were waiting for us.
“Howler do you know what you are?” Celestia asked.
“No.” I said while trying to find a way out.
“You are a werewolf.” Luna said. I took this in for a few seconds before responding.
“Okay.” It was the best I could come up with.
“Howler since you are the first werewolf cub that we have come across you will stay with Twilight so she can study how
you develop.” Celestia said this surprised me I thought that they were going to imprison me or execute me but it still wasn’t I
deal to be a Guyenne pig. Celestia and Luna left to tell Twilight’s friends of the situation.
“You can put your stuff upstairs by the bed that’s across from mine.” Twilight said I could tell that she was thinking of the worst possible outcomes of this situation but was still trying to be nice about it.
“Alright.” I said as I walked upstairs. The bed had a cover with the moon on it there was also a cat bed I guessed it was
for Spike I felt kinda bad for him. I took out my sketch pad and started to draw for a few minutes until I heard talking from downstairs. It was Twilight’s friends and the three fillies from school. I could hear exactly what they were saying.
“Are ya sure this is a good idea sugar.” The orange earth pony said
“Werewolves are extremely dangerous and scary.” The yellow Pegasus said
I decided to walk down but as always I had my hood up, as I pulled it up I heard growling coming from outside. looked out the window but the only thing there were large claw marks on the tree branch. I didn’t think anything of it and
walked downstairs.
“Howler I would like you to meet my friends they’re going to help me help you.” Twilight said I didn’t think to highly of that
comment.
“I don’t need any help.” I said I had actually become somewhat attached to my wolf like qualities they came in handy at
times.
“Howler you’re a werewolf we just want to cure you.” Twilight said.
“And if I don’t want to be cured.” I said trying to gain a foot hole in this argument.
“Well Twilight your guest certainly is rude.” The white older unicorn said but as far as I was concerned being a werewolf’s
pros outweighed the cons I read up on them when I was on the train. I found a book in the baggage cart which explained
everything even the consequences of being a werewolf in Equestria.
“Whatever.” I said as I went back upstairs and opened the window in the bedroom. From what I had read I should be able to jump down without getting hurt but I didn’t do it instead I laid down on the bed and pulled out my knife from my backpack a six inch kunai it was the only thing besides my necklace that was mine to begin with. I started to spin it on my finger, until Twilight came up I slipped the knife down my jacket sleeve.
“Howler I know things must be difficult for you.” Twilight said. “But could you at least give this a chance.”
“I was fine on my own.” I said as I rolled over on my side not facing Twilight and pulled out my knife and necklace.
“Howler look I’m only trying to help you.” Twilight said. “being cured is for your own good.”
“That’s what they said.” I said
“Who said?” Twilight asked.
“My parents before they abandoned me in the middle of that mansion. They told me it was for my own good, then they left
and never came back even though they said they would. So why should trust you or anypony else? The only thing they left me with was a knife and this necklace.” I said I began to tear up. I never really talked about what my parents really did to me until then.
“Howler….I had no idea that-“Twilight said before I cut her off.
“Nopony does that’s why I live alone; work alone, and like being alone. I can’t trust anypony besides myself.” I said.
“Howler look come down when you’re ready.” Twilight said as she walked downstairs. I heard her explain what I said to
the other ponies. Around thirty minutes later I walked downstairs.
“Howler are you feeling better?” Twilight asked I nodded.
“So are you going to let us cure you?” Twilight asked
“No.” I said
“but don’t you want to normal like the rest of us?” the yellow earth pony asked.
“Yeah.” I said.
“Why not?” the yellow earth pony said.
“Because I don’t want to be.” I responded I was starting to get annoyed with everypony acting like I had some form of
disease.
“That’s not a reason.” The orange Pegasus said.
“Just leave it alone Scootaloo.” The younger white unicorn said.
“Fine.” The orange pegasus said.
“Howler you have to understand that if you’re not cured and remain a werewolf_” Twilight said before I cut her off.
“You know as well as I do that there is no such thing as cure for being a werewolf.” I said.
“Hey ya should be a little nicer to the ponies who are tryin to help ya.” The orange earth pony said.
“Applejack he’s right Celestia wanted me to use him as a genie pig.” Twilight said.
“You know Twilight what he needs is some manners and proper edict.” The older white unicorn said. “I would be happy to
teach him?”
“You’re right Rarity. Howler will start he lesson after school tomorrow.” Twilight said.
“No I won’t.” I said.
“I’m in charge of you until something is done about this situation you have to do what I say.” Twilight said.
“fine” I muttered.
“Good.” Twilight said.
The next day at school Miss Cheerilee was going to assign a group project. The bad part was that she was
going to assign the groups herself, but she promised that everypony would be partnered with a friend.
“Alright class this project will be due at the end of next week.” Miss Cheerilee said as she began explaining the project
which seemed to never end.
“Now for your partners. Howler with Scootaloo, Sweetiebelle with Applebloom.” Miss Cheerilee said before I just stopped l
istening to her. After school I went to some custom clothing shop, which was weird for me because it was the last place I
would ever go in my free time.
“Hello and welcome to the Carousel Boutique my name is Rarity.” The older white unicorn said.
