Throughout the 44 years Fluttershy and I have spent in my world, we went through many changes. We grew close, we became friends but that bond continued to grow into something we call love but even then it continues to grow. I could never get enough of her, she would fill me with such joy and remind me of how lucky I am to have ever met her. Telling her how much I loved her would never satisfy me, I would immediately think of new things to say within seconds. In all honesty I’m surprised my head hasn’t exploded.
She was the reason why I lived, without her I was lost, alone and afraid. I’ve fought so hard for her, I fought myself for her, I fought her depression, anger, fear, loneliness, tears, mental and physical scars. I helped her become a strong mare, a mare who could stand up for herself and not back down soon after. I helped her grow up, and in return she made me grow up as well. Honestly, when I look back at how I was back then I almost forget who that person was.
I’m sure the same went for Fluttershy.
It was early in the morning, Fluttershy and I were sleeping peacefully until someone began knocking on the the door.
I was the first to wake up from it but Fluttershy, not long after, did to, “Who the hell could that be?” I wondered, “It’s like 6 in the morning!” funny I say that even though I didn’t have a clock or anything to tell time.
Fluttershy shrugged her shoulders as she turned around to give me a good morning kiss, “Should we go check it?”
“I’ll go but you stay put just in case.” I rolled out of bed, grabbed my cane, gun and knife and went downstairs to the door.
As I came down the knocking turned into banging that soon became excessive. I paused for a moment, wondering who could it be but regardless I opened the door only to be surprised by a group of robed strangers. They stood in silence, their robes covered their whole bodies which weren’t all that tall except for two who stood in the back, they were close to my height and as for the rest they were all around Fluttershy’s height.
“Can I help you?” I asked simply, wondering whether this was some cult or something else.
They stayed silent, giving a glance to each other before responding in a calm manner, “We’re looking for a friend of ours.” they said, “She went missing sometime ago and we were wondering if you happen to have any information.”
I raised a brow at them, “Who exactly are you looking?”
One of the two tall ones answered, “You know very well who, there’s no point in lying, I can sense her presence within this household.”
Then why did you ask, I wondered as I furrowed my brows at them, now wondering if I should flash them my gun as a warning but a better solution came into mind. If they’re who I think they are then they shouldn’t have a problem doing this.
“Remove your hoods.” I demanded, “Let me see your faces.”
Without arguing they did so, one by one they pulled back their hoods to reveal their faces. I wasn’t shocked when I saw them, I was more saddened honestly. Part of me knew this day would come by the other part didn’t want to believe it. I can’t deny what i’m seeing though, this is nor allusion or a dream, this is real.
“I was expecting more of a surprised reaction...” said a white alicorn who stood gracefully before everyone. Her mane flowed on its own despite the lack of wind. Her face, strong but unreadable, same goes for her dark blue sister. She carried herself the same way, her mane flowed in the same fashion also as it shined its millions upon millions of stars. It’s funny how they’re sisters, one is light while the other is dark.
I nearly smiled at her remark but I held my face firmly and spoke, “When you grow old, not much can scare you Princess Celestia, don’t you agree?”
This made them a bit uneasy except for Celestia who showed no changed in her expression, “It’s not about age,” she replied, “it’s what you’ve experienced that affects you.”
“But doesn’t that occur over your lifetime?” I argued.
Celestia was silent now as she raised her brow at me in question. We stared into each others eyes before I let them in. I took them to the living where I had them seated. We were in there for what seemed like hours though in reality it was a few minutes at most. No one said a word though, most of them were examining my house. I nearly chuckled every time the white unicorn with a purple curly mane and tail would shudder at the decor. As for the others, they simply raised their brows in curiosity at a few things.
“Quiet a house you got.” complemented Celestia in a sarcastic manner, “Never seen one such as this before.”
I only rolled my eyes, “Certainly not your first time either.”
That seemed to struck a few nerves, “What makes ya say that?” said the orange country pony with a blonde mane, tail and brown hat. Her accent was clear to pick up though it made her voice more threatening with the serious tone she used.
“Am I not allowed to make a simple joke?” I wondered, looking them all in the eyes before stopping on the pink mare with the cotton candy like mane and tail. “If that’s the case Pinkie Pie might go insane!”
“You know my name?” said Pinkie with curiosity, “Are you like some magical wizard? Oh and jokes are a great way of breaking in the mood!” she hopped excitedly as she giggled.
“Heh, nothing more to expect from the Element of Laughter.” I said gladfully, “You really do bring a smile to everyones face.”
Shockingly Pinkie was now embarrassed, her face turned red slightly and her ears went back, “Aww, thanks...” she said quietly.
I laughed at her adorableness for this was a rarity, “Don’t think I’m coming onto you just yet, I need to take you out to dinner first.”
Pinkie and few of them giggled while the rest raised a brow in either disgust or confusion, “Um...Not to change the subject or be rude,” said Twilight, “but how do you know about the Elements of Harmony?”
I laughed even more before responding to Twilight, “Your friend has told me a lot about you all. I basically know almost everything about you ponies. I know how you all met, the trails you’ve faced, what makes you all special and the friendship you all share...” My joy soon faded as I lowered my head, “It’s a shame she gave up on you all long ago...” Everypony was wondering what that meant but part of them knew the answer.
“Gave up?” repeated Applejack, the orange country pony, “Can you...Go into more detail on what ya mean?” she asked in a kinder tone.
“She doesn’t hate you,” I said firstly, “it’s just that...When I first found her she had high hopes but a year later-”
“A year?” interrupted Celestia, “How long has she been here?”
Everypony at first seemed confused on why she asked that but one by one it hit’em. LIke a frying pan to the face they were all taken back with the realization. Pain was now present as they looked up with pleading eyes. I know they were wondering how far gone was she, were they too late? It was obvious to see those questions but I kept my composure as calm as can be.
“44 years,” I said, loud enough that everyone could hear me, “she’s been here for 44 years.”
This finally surprised Celestia, she was actually speechless for a full minute. I could finally see her emotions, pain and regret yet interest. This made me raised my brow slightly, was there something more to this than I assumed? Now it was my turn to ask a question or two.
“How long has she been missing in your world?” I wondered, “Has it been 44 years for you?”
“Not exactly...” said Luna, “From what Twilight has told us she’s been missing for no more than 44 days. The fact she's here for that long is really...Incomprehensible.”
I couldn’t agree with her more despite the fact I didn’t know what that word meant, “She hasn’t aged,” I explained, “she still looks the same when I first found her.”
Everypony was now confused again, “That’s impossible!” lashed out Twilight, “You can’t sit there and say so much time has passed and she HASN’T AGED in the slightest!”
“Would you believe him if you saw it with your own eyes?” said a voice from the back.
I frowned slightly before turning to her, she stood on the stairs. Peering over all of us though there was no joy, not even the slightest bit of relief seeing her friends after so many years. She came down quietly, not once did she look over to them as she came to my side. She stood silently, giving me a quick peck on the cheek but nothing more.
Celestia was the first to speak but even she was fumbling words in her head, “I am glad to see you are well after...So many years, Fluttershy.”
“Likewise,” replied Fluttershy as she tried to avoid eye contact with everyone, “I see you all haven’t changed in the slightest...” hesitation came over her, she paused to think then spoke, “How are my animals?” she asked, “Has anyone been watching them?”
“Of course!” replied Rainbow Dash, a blue pegasus mare with a rainbow colored mane and tail. Her voice was a bit raspy but there was great determination in it. Her Element is Loyalty however so it doesn’t come as much as a surprise, “We’ve all pitched in on taking care of them.” she added, “I can't imagine how you put up with Angel though, little brat does nothing but yell and kick, talk about manners!”
Fluttershy smiled faintly hearing that, “Sounds like he misses me...”
“We all miss you.” Rarity said, taking a few steps to her friend. Her white coat sparkled from the light that shined through the windows. Her purple curly mane and tail bounced with each step before coming to a halt. She stared into her friend’s eyes before hers filled up with tears, her makeup began to smear as it ran down her cheeks but that was the least of her worries. She was basically overjoyed to see her most dear friend safe and sound after being lost for a seemingly long time.
I knew how close they were, out of the rest of them Fluttershy trusted Rarity the most. Not only was she caring, she was understanding and supporting to her problems. She stood up for her the most and was there just as many times as I was for her. She truly was a true friend to her.
“May I?” she asked, turning to me with tear filled eyes.
I nodded as I gave her a light hearted smile, “You may.”
Not even a second later they were wrapped in their arms. Rarity, finally in her friend’s arms let herself go as she wept softly. Fluttershy stayed strong as she held Rarity closely. I could see her fighting back the tears with all her might, it brought another smile seeing the bond they share is still strong.
“Thank you for watching over her...” murmured Rarity, “Thank you so much!”
I simply nodded, “It was truly an honor, Rarity.”
This tugged a few strings for everypony, even the princesses were sniffling from all this, “No words can express my gratitude towards you.” said Celestia, “Truly no words...”
Everyone took a moment to settle, once they did it grew quiet instantly, “I guess...We should take our leave then.” said Luna who turned to Fluttershy, “Are you ready to go?” she asked.
Fluttershy, who was still recovering from her reunion with Rarity, turned to Luna and stared at her in silence. When she finally spoke her voice was loud and clear for everypony to hear, “No.” she said, “I won’t go unless he comes along.” she extended her wing over to me and held me closely, “If he’s not coming then i’m staying.” she stated.
There was hesitation now in everypony, “I'm sorry Fluttershy,” said Celestia, “but I cannot do such a thing...”
“Then I’m staying.” she argued simply.
Celestia began biting her lip but proceeded, “Fluttershy truly you must see that he wouldn’t belong in our-”
“If she’s staying then she’s staying.” I argued, “I’m sure you can respect her decision.”
“B-but!” Celestia tried to remain calm and collective but I’m starting to her struggle, “What if he passes away, what then! He only has so many years left and you can’t age, Fluttershy you must return to your world, it’s where you belong!”
Fluttershy and I were actually surprised seeing Celestia resort to begging so quickly, for someone as old as her you would think she’d be pretty level headed, “If that’s the case,” said Fluttershy, “I want to be by his side to the end so he’ll never be alone.”
Twilight finally couldn’t hold it back anymore, “Listen to yourself!” she pleaded with anger in her tone, “You’re choosing him over us, think of the consequences!”
Fluttershy turned to Twilight with a harsh glare as she looked her dead in the eyes, “I don’t care.” she said bitterly, “If you really want me back so badly, you’ll have to drag me by force!”
Twilight stepped back, her eyes showed terror as she wasn’t familiar with this side of Fluttershy. Nopony has ever heard her speak in such a manner also. The Fluttershy they knew was quiet and going of the flow but this Fluttershy, this new Fluttershy was different. She stood out more, carried herself differently and spoke loud enough so everyone could hear her voice. It’s like when she was taking advice from that Iron Bull guy a while back but that’s not the case, Fluttershy has merely grown up.
“I think we’re at an impasse.” I said quietly as I rubbed the side of Fluttershy’s ear, “Either you allow me to come with her or she stays here, I highly suggest you let me come if you wish to keep your friend.”
“But we can’t!” argued Celestia, “You don’t belong in our world just as she doesn’t belong here. You would pose many risks and-”
“Are you going to repeat what happened to Rainbow Dash, Princess Celestia?”
Celestia was stopped cold as her eyes widened with shock, “How do you know of that!” she hissed.
I couldn’t help but laughed at how obvious the answer was, “Fluttershy also told me your secrets and a certain one stuck to me all these years. A secret I nor Fluttershy could let it be forgotten. In all honestly, I’m relatively glad you brought her with you.” I looked over to Rainbow Dash with curious eyes, “Tell me Rainbow, when you came to this world have you noticed anything strange?”
Rainbow took a step back but nodded her head in response to my question, “Why do you ask?”
“Does any of this seem familiar to you?”
“Familiar?” questioned Rainbow.
“This world, this house, the argument we’re having, does any of this remind you of something?”
Rainbow was only confused as to why I was targeting her but something made her nodded nervously now, “To be honest...You do remind me of someone I once knew but...I can’t put my hoof on it.”
“Rainbow!” shouted Celestia angrily as she stomped her hoof on the floor, causing the house to shake momentarily, “If you say anymore to him I will send you back home without hesitation!”
“So now you let her speak?” I questioned sadly, “You’re utterly disappointing Celestia.”
Celestia gritted her teeth as her anger began to show, “WHAT DO YOU KNOW!” she barked, “YOU DON’T KNOW THE SACRIFICES I’VE MADE!”
I wasn’t all that fazed by her anger, Fluttershy wasn’t also compared to her friends who were shaking like frightened puppies at the sight of Princess Celestia’s anger. I actually began to smirk but it was because Fluttershy had grown so strong now she can stand up against Celestia herself. I’m truly proud to see how much she has grown in my time.
That smirk was soon gone though as I looked deep into Celestia’s eyes, “Let me ask you this but not as a human,” I said in a serious tone as I took a step towards her, “but as one of your many faithful subjects. Are secrets more important than friendship?” Is it worth the pain and suffering that you are in right now?”
Celestia went silent, her head just dropped as soft whimpers were now heard, “I’m sorry...” she said quietly as her horn began to glow.
My eyes widened as I knew what would happen next, I quickly pushed Fluttershy to the side. I then brazed myself as I felt a strong force enter and leave my body. I began to grow weak next as blood was starting to flow out of me, screams of horror filled the room soon after. Fluttershy’s screams rained over everyone’s as she was by my side the next second.
My body was in unimaginable pain next as I doubled over, my breathing was picking up as my body entered shock. That pain however, the sock, all of it, soon turned into unbelievable anger. Everything in me was in flames, I felt like I could take on another blast and not even feel fazed. I pushed myself up as I reached into my pocket, everyone was shocked to see me do this with the wound I just received from the princess. I pulled out a old, rusty looking pistol a old friend gave to me. Just the look of it brought back memories.
“The world is dangerous Amigo, you gotta do what you think is right to survive.” I’m not sure if that’s how exactly he worded it but I smiled hearing his voice.
I flicked the safety off and aimed, I took in a deep breath, exhaled slowly and fired. The first shot brought her down to knees. The second shot missed but more screams were heard from all sides as everyone took cover. The third shot brought her down, I could feel Fluttershy’s grasp now as we approached the moment of truth.
One more shot between the eyes and through the brain, that’s all that was left. Celestia showed signs of struggled as she tried to bring herself up but if my aim is still as good as before, there’s no way she’ll be able to stand right now. I had a clear shot, no way I could possibly miss. Why Luna nor the others hadn’t intervene was beyond me, they could’ve easily taken me down, I am wounded and they magic themselves. Well Twilight, Rarity and Luna do but it almost seemed like they were just waiting for the outcome. Was this possibly planned?
I placed my finger on the trigger and began to pull it back, I took in a few steady breaths but cringed as some pain was returning. My arm began to tremble and soon, it gave out and the gun slipped out my grasp, falling with a low thump on the rug.
“I can’t...” I muttered hesitantly, “I can’t do it.”
“Why are you resisting?” questioned Luna, “You won the battle now claim your victory.”
To hear her say it disgusted me but I shook my head and slowly dropped to my knees, “I’ve done enough...If I go through with it I won’t only be hurting you ponies, I’ll be hurting Equestria and worst of all, I’ll be hurting My Dear Fluttershy.” I looked over to Fluttershy, she was still holding onto me the entire time. She was just a mess right now but I could sense relief and gratitude. I smiled warmly with my decision though.
My body couldn’t hold itself up anymore, I nearly collapsed but Fluttershy caught me and laid me down. Luna then stepped in, she stood over me in silence before her started glowing. I was then encased in a strange bubble, I looked around as everything darkened and went mute. I wasn’t sure what was going on anymore but I didn’t fight back anymore, I surrendered myself to whatever would happen next. I felt warm and fuzzy now, it made me smile as I heard Fluttershy’s voice next.
“I will always be by your side because I love you. You make me feel so alive and I can’t imagine being separated from you. No matter what happens I will always love you...” Her voice began to trail off as everything was quiet now.
I’m dead, I thought but just then a bright light shined. I was blinded for a moment as my eyes readjusted themselves.
I was back in the living with Fluttershy and the others who were surrounding me. The pain was no longer present but something didn’t feel right. When I stood up I noticed I was at Fluttershy's height but just a bit taller. I also noticed I was standing on all fours now. In all honesty I’m sorta disappointed I didn’t figure it out right there though i’m not the brightest, even now.
“How do you feel?” Fluttershy asked softly.
I raised a brow at her and shrugged, “Um...Better to say the least.” I paused as I again noticed my voice was different, “Woah...OK now I’m a little scared, what’s going on?” I was in her arms the next second, the sudden surprise almost made us fall over, that would’ve made an interesting scene if you ask me.
I looked around to see the others smiling at me, I wasn’t sure how to respond really. I thought I was dead, Celestia’s shot should’ve been fatal for my age but here I am. Standing, breathing, alive in Fluttershy’s arms but what happened? Why am I shorter, why am I standing on all fours, why does my voice sound different and how many more obvious question must I ask? I could feel myself going mad with these questions, I needed answer to all this but it was there, I was just too thick in the head to see.
“I guess we should give him a name.” suggested Applejack, “What should we name him?”
“Name?” I replied confusedly, “What are you talking about?”
“Why not Cerulean?” said Rarity, “He’s not exactly the shade of the color but it seems to fit him well.”
“What type of name is Cerulean?” questioned Pinkie, “We should name him Blue!”
“How about Blue Blazer?” suggested Rainbow.
“Don’t be ridiculous!” argued Twilight, “Why not Blue Flame?”
“That’s the same thing!” shouted Rainbow.
“Blueberry Muffin!” screamed Pinkie.
“Blue Apple!” yelled Applejack.
“Blue Marine!” argued Rarity.
The ponies continued to argue back and forth, spouting hundreds of names with blue in them. I never even imagined blue could go with so many things but my patience was wearing then. Fluttershy and Luna tried to contain the madness but that proved little to affect as their debate heated on. I soon found myself screaming at the top of my lungs, I couldn’t take it anymore so I told them all to quiet down...In a not so polite way.
After they settled, including myself, I sighed before speaking, “Before you all have a war over a stupid name, would you mind telling me what the hell is going on before I lose my well being again.”
Twilight and the others looked at each other before snickering, “Oh right, maybe this should shed some light on you.” appearing from thin air was a large mirror that was brought over to me.
My eyes widened as I saw my reflection, I gently pushed Fluttershy aside as I went up for a closer look. I couldn't believe it at first but as I blinked my eyes and moved my body, the reflection followed my every move. My eyes began to water up with the realization. In the mirror was me but not as a human, but as a stallion pegasus.
I stood with a dark blue coat but not as dark as Luna’s. I had brown eyes with a black shaggy like mane that covered them slightly. My tail was black also and seemingly long for a stallion and my wings, basically copies of Celestia’s but in a dark blue. As for my cutie mark, it showed a shield with spears crossing in a X fashion from behind while a sun rose in the back of it all.
I wondered what it meant but the answer came instantly. I smiled proudly as I brought my front hooves up only to have myself fall back next. I landed with a light thump and laid there, dazed slightly before Fluttershy helped me up. She steadied me before giving me a peck on the cheek.
“How do you like the new you?” she asked.
I smiled once more, “I’m one fine looking stallion, a little skin and bone compared to you girls.”
Fluttershy giggled as her face reddened, “A few more pounds wouldn’t hurt and...You are quite a handsome stallion.”
I blushed lightly before Applejack interrupted our moment, “You can kiss later,” she said, “but we gotta name ya and head home before something else happens.”
I sighed for a moment before giving her a quick glare, “Why not Cerulean Protector?” I suggested, “The color sounds nice and Protector seems to fit well, what do you all think?”
“Why Protector?” wondered Fluttershy.
I chuckled at her question, “Well think about it, I’ve done nothing but PROTECT you since we met and I still am today and I also plan on PROTECTING you in the future.” I smiled happily at myself, “I’ve been your protector for a very long time, a guardian though i’m no Angel. I also like the name Cerulean because it sounds interesting yet calm and powerful.” I winked at Rarity who merely smiled, “Plus it sounds GLAMOROUS!”
“Oh hush up!” spouted Rarity, “I didn’t take you for a suck up.”
“Says miss dramatic.” I replied.
“AHEM!” said Luna, stopping our bantering and gathering our attention, “If you have chosen your name then we should be off, I don’t want to stay here longer than needed.”
“Um...Right.” I said quietly before realizing something, “Wait, what about Celestia?” I looked to where I assumed Celestia was at but she wasn’t there, in fact, there no sign of her.
“In due time...” said Luna as a portal opened up next to her, “You will have your answers.”
I raised my brow at her before entering the portal with Fluttershy by my side. I was then thrown into chaos as I passed multiple dimensions and worlds within seconds. I couldn’t even fathom what I was seeing before blacking out. When I woke up I was in a meadowy field with Fluttershy cradling me. I groaned quietly as I stood up, my head was throbbing for a moment but quickly went away.
“Well...That was one hell of a LSD trip.” I mumbled.
“Are you going to be ok?” questioned Fluttershy.
“Yeah.” I replied, “I just never went into a PORTAL or anything,” I soon found myself smiling, “this is going to one interesting life for sure.” to this day i’m not sure whether I regret saying that or not.
“Hmm hmm, me neither and i’m glad I still have you by my side.”
“Hey, where are the others?” I wondered as I looked around, “did they make it back ok?”
“They already went to their homes,” Fluttershy explained, “Luna and Celestia weren’t here when we all came back but I assume they’re back in Canterlot.”
I nodded my head before remembering something, “Wait, what about Rainbow Dash? Did she get her memory back after everything that happened?”
“Let’s head inside first, it’d be better for us...”
I raised my brow questionably at her, “Inside? Where are we at?” after saying that I noticed a tree like house, a cottage if I remember correctly, in the distance. I hoof palmed at the realization, “Nevermind...” I grumbled.
Fluttershy helped me inside since I wasn’t used to walking like her kind, the moment we came in we were ambushed by critters of all kinds. Too many to name off but what a sight it was to see all of Fluttershy’s furry critters holding their caretaker so lovingly. When they finally noticed me they sniffed me out before gagging at how foul my stench was, this made me laugh at the fact I haven’t showered in years but I couldn’t help but blush a bit.
“I wonder how many baths I’ll need until they’re within arm’s reach.” I joked simply.
Fluttershy smiled lightly but it soon faded away and everything went silent, “I guess we should head into the kitchen, there’s a note for you.”
“A note? From who?” I wondered.
“I’ll read it to you...” she replied, taking a few steps to the kitchen before stopping, “Oh and it’s from Celestia.”
I watched her with concern but did my best to follow her into the kitchen. Along the way I began to hear whispers from behind though when I would look back everything went silent. This happened a few times before I started to freak out a little but once in Fluttershy’s kitchen things seemed to settle down a bit.
Just as Fluttershy said there was a note on a table, we seated ourselves and Fluttershy read the note, “Dear Cerulean Protector, I am glad to announce you have...Passed our test. You have permission to live in our world but there are rules we have set for you.
Rule #1, you must not mention any of this to any other pony beside Fluttershy, her friends, Princess Luna and I. If you should by chance tell anypony who you really are we will send you back to your world without hesitation.
Rule #2, you must act like a normal pony, this means you must learn our culture to blend in and not bring suspicion to yourself or your friends. Doing so could lead to many problems and as before, a sentence back to your world without hesitation. These are the only rules we have made so far, if other rules are made we will inform you as soon as possible.”
Fluttershy needed to pause for she was in tears as she continued to read, “I would also like to inform you that we have confiscated your weapon you used on me for beneficial reasons. We believe this could aid our military and we are currently researching the materials for this weapon. Also about Rainbow Dash, her memory has been restored, she remembers everything now and we’re not sure what the outcome will be. We can only assume she must be thinking through some things but I figured this would be best since what you said was true. Friendship is more meaningful than secrets for it has destroyed me in the inside. Lastly, I have assigned watchers for you, 6 of them. One of them being Fluttershy, each of these watchers will teach valuable life lessons you’ll need to survive in this world. You’ll meet them all when they’re available so be ready. Oh and one more thing, there will more tests to come so be prepared for your new life in Equestria could depend on it.”
Fluttershy slowly put the letter down with trembling arms, her face was red with anger and tears as she restrained herself from lashing out. I wasn’t faring so well, my rage was unexplainable at the moment for my sanity was completely shattered now. It was all a lie, no not a lie, a test. This whole experience, was nothing more than a goddamn test that Celestia put us through just to gather DATA. Part of me screamed in agony while the other part was in a deep void of regret.
“I’m going to kill her...” I muttered quietly, “I swear to you all, I’m going to kill Celestia, rip her head off and show it to Equestria. I don’t care of the outcome I will kill her, one of these days...”
THE END
Epilogue: A Few Months Later
It’s been a few months now since I came to Equestria, things have been quiet around here which isn’t any different from my home. I’ve been staying with Fluttershy since I had no where else to go and I wasn’t ready to go out there just there yet. We sleep together in her room though we’re ordering a larger bed because hers is a bit too small for us.
I’ve been helping out with the animals, one thing i’ve discovered was that I could communicate with them like Fluttershy could. This meant I could talk to them and they would talk back, this was thanks to Celestia though i’m not all THAT thankful.
Aside from Celestia, I figured out my watchers were Twilight and the others. I was pretty shocked to realize this but I was rather glad that it was them. I really thought it was going be some royal guards or drill sergeants. Guess I dodged the bullet on that.
For their roles, Twilight is teaching me pony history and how to read and write in pony. Applejack is letting me work at her farm so I could build character with some hard labor, she’s practically the only reason I go out though it’s only to her farm which is pretty large, including her family. Rainbow Dash was assigned to be my coach in flying since i’m a pegasis, I’ve been practicing hard but she says I could use A LOT of work, I assume she’s supposed to teach me how to be a good sport. Also, she hasn’t spoken much about getting back her memory, whenever I bring it up she just tells me she’s thinking over it and avoids further conversation. I can only imagine what she’s going through...
Anyway, Pinkie Pie needs to break my anti socialness so I can socialize better once i’m able to go out more. So far she’s just been showing me how to goof off and make witty comments, i’m not all that spastic like her but I do know how to banter. Lastly as for Rarity, she’s showing me fabrics and how to identify colors and what not. Really i’m not sure what i’m supposed to learn from her but apparently to her i’m some type of charmer with the mares. What that means is beyond me but Fluttershy seems to get a kick out of it whenever I bring it up.
I can honestly say, I don’t really like having them all as watchers, especially Fluttershy though it's not to say they don’t like it either. However, I do take the time to get to know them better and form a friendship with them. I can’t believe I wanted to kill them honestly, they’re such great ponies it would be horrible if I just killed them.
I can say i’m learning a lot from them but i’ve already learned so much from Fluttershy, without her I would still be struggling in my world and she would never have grown up. I’m glad I got to come with her, but I hate the fact i’m being tested under it all. Really I don’t know what to expect but I still plan on killing Celestia, I don’t know when but one day, I will succeed.
