Part 1
"I can't beleive it..." small sounding hoof steps were made on the dirt trails around the town, "Neurelm was Luna, and Celestia's sister?" ponies were passing him every now and then, but it was only for the big commotion down town. He sighed, "She wanted my attention..." he remembered Luna grabbing his left arm back at the castle, "... But why didn't she say anything? She was speaking loud and clear for her sister..." he swerved to the side to avoid a pebble on the road, "... No, it was only because she was shy... maybe too humiliated to just turn around like that. It's just a matter of time..." he finally looked up, as JetStream saw where he meant to go in the first place, Sugarcube Corner. He opened the door as the bell rung, "Hello?" Mr. Cake turned, only to suddenly shift in shock.
"JetStream! What are you doing here?" got him unnerved to see him like that but he continued.
"I was looking for my Mom and Dad. Are they still here?" he had more of a curious tone.
"Actually, they went out about 20 minutes ago, looking for you." JetStream's mouth went wide open. He quickly turned around, stumbled over his own hooves a bit and galloped out the door, "They're at th-!... Uhhh..." JetStream was far gone by the time he was finished.
"I bet they're at the party Pinkie suddenly put together... almost everypony is there right now." he got close to the main circle that was located near to the center of town, there were everywhere, "Geez, I can't look somewhere and not see somepony..." he looked straight ahead to the Town Hall, "Could they be in there?" he started walking in that direction. As he got closer to the door, it felt like everything else faded, and he couldn't hear anything out area of the building. He stood right in front of the door, and started to slowly nudge it open. His head peeked in at an angle, it looked like Celestia and Luna were still there. Twilight, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie were there next to them, so were JetStream's parents. It sounded like Pinkie Pie was talking about her parties, but at the near second he walked in, she referred to him and about how he helped her gathering the ponies around Ponyville. When he was visible enough, Celestia spoke out.
"Well, there's your gatherer." she smiled. They all looked to him.
"...! Hey, everypony..." he had a nervous smile on his face.
"JetStream!" Myriad and Corolla both went up to him, Corolla kneeled down to embrace him, "I'm so glad you're alright." she said. Myriad walked to the other side, where he could be seen.
"Where were you, JetStream? Me and your Mom were both frightened to not see you at Sugarcube Corner." JetStream insisted on waiting until Corolla would let it go, then he spoke.
"I went with Twilight, and the rest of them..." his family and the six on the other side shared glances. Celestia saw Luna take a glare at her, yet all they did was to look back, "To the Everfree forest. Where we looked for the elements of harmony." Corolla rose up in shock.
"Really?" she looked back down at her son.
"Yeah." JetStream looked at the six of them, so did Corolla, "And it turns out, them themselves are the elements, and not some stones as we once heard..." JetStream smiled looking back to Corolla.
"How did you find that out?" she was surprised, yet she sounded like she didn't want to be so sure.
"... It's because we helped one another." Applejack spoke. Corolla saw JetStream look back to her through the corner of his eye. Applejack's necklace showed in the sun's light.
"JetStream, helped me how to pull through..." Fluttershy said without hesitation.
"... He helped us show the way... even though we knew..." Rainbow Dash said, not trying to sound too behind, Rarity stepped up as Rainbow said it, she leaned in close to her and corrected.
"Don't you mean he confirmed our path...?" Rainbow Dash slightly rolled her eyes. JetStream looked back a bit, sheepishly smiling at Corolla.
"He helped me make a new friend!" Pinkie Pie bounced. Everypony stopped what they were doing when Twilight walked up ahead of the crowd, and stopped in front of JetStream.
"You helped me share and confirm information I needed for my personal study..." JetStream looked up to her and smiled.
"Thanks, it's always nice to have friends." Twilight once again stopped at the word, yet she just shook her head to look like she was ignoring it.
"Yeah." she responded firmly. JetStream turned around.
"I hope I haven't done anything to seriously do any hurtful things..." he looked down toward the ground, when suddenly.
"Oh, JetStream." Corolla went back down, "Is this really all true?" she looked at the ponies behind him, "Have you really befriended these ponies?" there was a pause from JetStream.
"Yes." all six of them said in unison. Corolla went back to look at JetStream.
"... Yes, Mom. I did." he smiled. She embraced him one more last time. Myriad smiled whole-heartedly.
It was quite some time since that event happened, after everything was settled one pony after another exited the building, Spike also entered not to long after he was looking for Twilight himself. Then it was just Twilight, Spike and them.
"I guess is where we say good bye..." JetStream said. Twilight smiled.
"I guess it is." Myriad suddenly bumped in.
"Actually, considering how much you seemed attached JetStream. We'll stick around for a bit longer, okay?"
"Really?"
"Yes." Myriad answered as he headed for the Town Hall doors.
"Then were are you going?" Corolla followed after him.
"We're going back to Sugarcube Corner. We'll see you back there, alright." JetStream nodded.
"Yes." they both waved, as they walked out the doorway and closed the door. When it shut, JetStream stopped. When he turned around, Twilight didn't look so happy.
"Twilight?"
"Hmm?" she looked at him.
"You're still here?"
"Yeah. We're staying a little longer... until I'm ready to leave." there was a long pause, when Celestia decided to have a word in it.
"... Why so glum my faithful student?" Twilight looked to her mentor, "Are you not happy your quest is complete? And you can return to your studies in Canterlot?" JetStream's mouth opened in wonder as he stood on the side lines.
"That's just it..." she looked down, "Just when I learn how wonderful it is to have friends..." Twilight looked to JetStream, and kept the others at heart, "I have to leave them..." Celestia paused.
"... Spike! Take a note please... I, Princess Celestia, hereby decree that the unicorn, Twilight Sparkle, shall take on a new mission for Equestria. She must continue to the magic of friendship, she must report to me her findings from her new home, in Ponyville." she gained a big smile.
"Oh thank you, Princess Celestia! I'll study harder then ever before." she bowed, just as Spike finished. He handed her the note, where it vanished to someplace safe. Twilight grabbed Spike and swung him onto her back as she trotted for the door.
"Com' on Spike, we got a home to get in order." JetStream followed soon after, yet when he reached for the open door, both doors glowed different colours, and gently shut.
"What?" JetStream turned around.
"Do not fret, JetStream. For I simply will spotlight your new-found abilities..."
Part 2
With a hoof in the air he asked them a question, "... What do you mean, my new-found abilities...?" Celestia tilted her head in a way that made JetStream open his mouth in realization, "... Is it? ... is it because of my... Aura?" Celestia nodded.
"Indeed." Luna looked up to her sister without saying a word, "This ability, as we can both say, anypony can use it, right? That anypony can use it if they put one's mind to it." JetStream smiled and nodded.
"Well, of course anypony can if they tried." Celestia smiled as well.
"Well, as I love to conclude you are a young, open-minded pony. There is a slight flaw in that logic." he suddenly looked back up from the recent complement.
"I know there is a lot to learn from it." JetStream responded.
"Yes, yes there is, JetStream. And in that field of the unknown, there might be something just standing next to your shoulder. And that embodiment of knowledge is what me, and my sister, will try to bring to you." JetStream fixed his stature as Celestia continued, "We want to bring up a new radical up-bringing in your awareness for Aura, ponies' spirits in you and everypony around you." Celestia looked at Luna, "And I must say, that Luna has foresaw your potential in being one of them, and I sincerely thank her for it." JetStream didn't realize it, but Luna closed her eyes. She stood from where she had sat, and it looked like she focused in place.
"...Wha-?" JetStream wondered to himself. Soon enough, Luna's Aura, followed by Celestia's, rose visible. While Celestia's Aura was golden, Luna's was a clean, sparkling, night-sky blue, almost like her mane and tail when she was Nightmare Moon, "What's going on?" JetStream looked up ahead.
"Don't fray by the scene you see, JetStream. For us to see what answer concludes our wonder, you must lull into your calmest calm..." Celestia paused, "We all need to respite on the same tier. It helps all of us here if you rather sit still, close your eyes and think about the ambience around you, until you cannot point to anything otherwise." JetStream's heart was beating more than the norm, how did a simple task as staying still sound so complex, or difficult? So JetStream followed exactly what Celestia said. Soon enough after the silence he felt a little light, not in the head, but in every spot. Soon enough the entoptical shifted while JetStream's eyes were closed. His Aura also started to lift, and was visible. With the princess, having many years of practice with this acknowledgement, she decided to leave her eyes open, even though the desired effect is stronger when they're closed. JetStream's ears lifted, as if there was a loud noise, yet didn't notice. That moment when Celestia said he couldn't focus on anything else after some time, well, what she meant, apparently, is that JetStream realized everything was beginning to lower in volume. And it was instead replaced by a continuous humming sound. It got louder until it was easy to spot out, and never went any further, "JetStream, I need you to answer this question." Celestia asked of JetStream, her eyes still wide open, he nodded, "Are you hearing some sort of sound? Any sound at all is some sort of response from Luna."
'Wait... what? I never... I never responded to Luna...' he paused, as the humming spoke to him with its never-lifting sound, "... Yes. Celestia, I am hearing a sound..." he finally responded.
"Thank you for your co-operation, JetStream." he mentally sighed.
'This is intense...'
"Hist, JetStream." Luna suddenly spoke, "Do not swink, JetStream. Mayst you hark thou Aura in which thou hast." Celestia decided to continue.
"Please, JetStream. Don't let your Aura shift the slightest." soon after JetStream got composed once again, everything was back into place.
"... Verily, JetStream." she seemed to smile as she kept her eyes close. Soon after, Luna's Aura changed to Gold as well, as they both will be following Celestia soon enough. JetStream started to various colours behind his eyes. When suddenly, yet slowly, he noticed a light that was shining in the middle, it gave off a yellow spark. Celestia saw JetStream's mouth open in awe.
"JetStream, please hold on for us. We are more then half the way through." The light that intrigued him didn't start to feel to good, as he slowly felt a dull shock after every time the light pulsed.
"Amain, JetStream." Luna said. The yellow light turned to gold, then went instantly to a bright white. He felt a cold wave go over his spine when his Aura turned the same gold in front of the two princesses. How was a light so bright, coming from nowhere? Well that technically wasn't it. He suddenly started to feel pain build around his head, as the white light he was seeing grew immensely, and as time flowed, a white transparent, yet bright, energy was flowing out of his eyes at where they met where they are closed.
'It hurts...' he thought, not some of the best moments to be thinking more positive things, but if the princesses know JetStream can pull through it, what could possibly be there waiting for him?
Part 3
As the white energy that continuously flowed from JetStream's eyes, the more time passed, the farther the spark looking particles went toward the air, as they looked like they were pressured more than before. Not before to long, Luna sensed a colour. She was surprised at such a thing, "Dear sister... erewhile and forthwith, I iwis seek JetStream's Auric spirit, puissant and forby..."
"..." JetStream let that sentence slip by. Celestia gained a smile of please.
"JetStream, Luna finds the Aura she has foretold, and I thank her so for pointing such a thing out... do you wish to continue?"
"... What do you mean...?" JetStream spoke without thinking, yet when they both worried about unbalance, they were surprised to see him at absolute zero, it would budge at all.
"...Well..." Celestia continued after such surprise, "... This is what every Auroric has to do, in order to accomplish what they are naturally meant for. As you will find, JetStream..." he waited for what she was about to say, staring at the bright emptiness of the light before him.
"Auroric..?"
"Yes. Those who specialize in Aura abilities, are marked by such vast improvement in individuals..."
"Aurorics? And they specialize in Aura? Is that what I'm here?" he asked.
"Now, JetStream. Let's don't get to segregated... as Luna and I are Aurorics as well..."
"What?"
"This includes you as well... after one Auroric passes away, another will take his or her place... and I hope you take this lightly, JetStream. You are next, marked to be an Auroric..."
"Out... out of all the ponies in the world... it ended up being me?" Celestia smiled.
"Yes, I hope you will see this as an opportunity."
"This... this is all too sudde-" JetStream's Aura surged, as did the spark like white energy did fly around the center of the Town Hall. JetStream instantly went silent, he didn't speak another word as his eyes open, shocking Luna and Celestia both. What they saw was JetStream's eyes glowing brightly, and Celestia had to think it through, as Twilight went through the same scene when she was learning her magic.
"Sister, what I hast felt, is being physically dawned usward..." she looked at her sister, "T'is it, sister..." Celestia was relieved to finally know, yet it seemed like JetStream didn't have a choice, as it was already happening.
"Then it is official. The next generation has awoken." Celestia stated, looking back to JetStream. The ring JetStream wore slipped down to the floor off of his fore right leg, and glowing as it hit. And it cracked as well against the wooden floor, the colour actually shot out of the crack like a light, "...?" Celestia noticed it, Luna's eyes were still shut. The further the gem glowed gold, it slowly dissipated to a blue, a navy blue. As if it was too cold to shine off its colours, yet that's when a sphere of the same colour formed around him, "Luna..." she noticed her sister shifted right after it happened.
"Sister... you shouldst balance, JetStream... avoid thole, do thine..." Celestia thought that JetStream may have some sort of connection more than he thinks, this happening might have some sort of affect on him because of it nearly shattering. After a couple of breaths, Celestia stood up, and slowly approached him. She didn't even say a word, she just stopped next to him, and sat, completely silent. Yet although she did move from her position, her gold Aura didn't fade, it grew into more of a blazing fire. As if she gestured in front of the sun itself. Knowing how Aura and the emotions affect each other, she referred her feelings back to the time where she was bringing JetStream back out of the top of the castle, where it was they very first, and longest talk before going back to his parents, she just let that sit and slowly take effect. The last thing she did, was put on a smile, as she knows "Nothing is better than your own smile..." she'll never forget her saying that as she closed her eyes. A time passed by, and there was a lot of it gone by the time, the sphere slowly changed colour, then to grey and then it completely vanished, as if it evaporated. JetStream was visible once again, only his eyes were now closed. Celestia opened her eyes, once she saw JetStream, she finished off the stream, and whispered.
"Wake up..." and JetStream's eyes instantly opened.
Part 4
"...?" JetStream looked around, "What happen-!?" he noticed the princess standing on his immediate left.
"T'is over, sister." Luna looked over to JetStream, "Gramercy, JetStream. It turns thou are an Auroric, I thank thee verily." she smiled.
"Yes." JetStream smiled back, "I obviously might not have known about this, but I thank you both for bringing it out." JetStream finished the sentence looking at Celestia, that's when Celestia noticed JetStream's mark, as every Auroric will get a different effect with their eyes. There was a faint, transparent symbol covering both of JetStream's pupils, and nothing else, "... Is there something wrong, Celestia?" JetStream look back.
"No... I just noticed your mark. That is all, JetStream."
"My, mark?" his head tilted at the question.
"Don't worry about it now, you're soon to figure it later." she smiled as she stood back up, and walked over to Luna.
"It's getting a bit late, JetStream, and Luna and I has to begin raising the moon and sun like we used to."
"Really?" he looked out the high placed windows, the whole sky was tinted orange, "Oh! Already?" he looked back to Celestia, "But what about the Aurorics? How can I figure more about them...?" he looked back down to his fixed gem, "... And learn more about Aura?" she laughed at his enthusiasm.
"Well, why don't you wait a bit longer, you'll see. And besides, you can be an Auroric, JetStream. It now all depends if you intend to." JetStream stood back up in thought, "Those doors are open, and they're ready for you to enter at any time." JetStream looked back as the doors behind him opened back up slowly, "That jewelry seems to be very significant for you, JetStream, I suggest you keep an eye on it." Celestia smiled.
"..." he turned around.
"It's not jewelry, it's a gem." she blinked as she nodded. After a pause with the thought of new information, and the probability of being an Auroric at hoof, JetStream finally turned around and inhaled.
"Alright..." he walked toward the white light that were behind the doors. When the white faded he was outside.
"Huh?" he looked back to notice the doors were closed, he opened them again, "..." he paused, "... What?" he wondered, Luna and Celestia were both gone.
"... Excuse me?" a voice asked.
"...!" he jumped and turned around.
"What are you doing here?" a mare with a grey-brown coat asked.
"I was ju-..." he looked back in, then back to this mare, "Just seeing if anypony... was in there..." after the pause he pointed his hoof toward the Town Hall, "... There..."
"I see. Well, nopony is, so you might as well be done with it." she rolled her eyes with a smile.
"Ye-yes..." he looked past the mare and down a route, "... I got somewhere to go!" he went into a full gallop down the path. Near the Golden Oaks Library, JetStream saw Corolla entering just as he turned a corner, "Mom?" he got closer and entered through the door, with an audible ring to the wooden bell, "Mom?" Twilight, Spike and Corolla turned toward the door.
"JetStream, glad to see you here. Why are you here?" Corolla asked turning to JetStream, Twilight and Spike just turned to each other to shrug, "I thought you'd be back at Sugarcube Corner."
"I was, but I saw you going in here..." he looked around.
"Well, alrighty then..." Corolla responded, "Just hang on a minute dear..." she smiled as she turned to Twilight, "So where was that book you spoke of, Twilight?" Corolla continued.
"Oh, yes. It's right over there... Spike." she looked down to her assistant.
"Yes, ma'am." he made a saluting gesture. Using the muscle in his legs, he jumped to incredible heights, and grabbed the book with amazing co-ordination, "Right here, Twilight."
"Thanks, Spike." Twilight said as she lifted the book in her purple magic, "Here you go, Mrs. Corolla." he expression was enlightened when she saw the cover.
"Yes! Oh, thank you two both so much!" Corolla looked back up to them.
"When will I need to return this?" Twilight shifted backward.
"We-... uh..." she smiled and snickered lightly from embarrassment, "I think you can keep it for as long as you like." she finally said, closing her eyes with a smile.
"Thank you, Twilight. That's awfully generous of you." she smiled as well and turned around, "Ready to go, JetStream? Back to Sugarcube Corner?" Corolla asked. JetStream paused, yet finally answered.
"Yes." and waved to Twilight and Spike.
They both exited and went straight for Sugarcube Corner. When they got there, Myriad was standing outside of the door. Corolla showed him the book, and then attention went to JetStream as he brought up something about staying in Ponyville. Myriad responded by saying that, it was the reason he was staying here instead of lounging around this town, he was thinking about the fact of their son staying in a different town, where his parents don't live. But with the right attitude, and his thinking process on the brighter side, he thought he has a conclusion that would surprise him either way. With the big glowing red sun behind them, Myriad finally gave the answer, and suddenly Myriad and JetStream were both hugging in such decision he had decided for him. And since their time for the Summer Sun Celebration was nearly over, all the sun had to do was completely disappear from the horizon, they all walked to Ponyville's train station, and waited for the next to arrive. When it did, they shared hugs, and more than half of them got on the train. As the train started, JetStream kept up with them following the train's window, up until the wooden platform ended, and all JetStream could do was wave them good-bye. Their last words being "We'll promise to keep in check." as the train went down with the sunset, and the moon now arisen. JetStream looked back to Ponyville, and saw Twilight and Spike standing near the start of the platform he was standing on. Twilight was smiling, yet down at the fact they're splitting up.
"I know how it feels, JetStream." she said. JetStream was silent, he looked at the blue tinted wood below him, "It's almost unbearable that the fact is I can even see the place my parents are at..." she looked her way to Canterlot, "Like you said to Fluttershy, JetStream. We're all your friends, we're all your company..." that broke the smile out of JetStream, "..." she paused on an offer, "Why don't you stay at the library? ... You do need to stay somewhere right?" she smiled, looking a bit worried. JetStream was still silent. He looked up to the moon, and suddenly spoke out of the blue.
"Aye..."
