Chapter 2

Sylar sighed as he followed Pinkie Pie into Ponyville; it seemed as though this world was going to get some getting used to.

“Thank you Ms Pie but I will take it from here” said Sylar trying to be as polite as he could (which was quite hard due to how annoyed he already was at the pink hyperactive pony) taking his suitcase from Pinkie and carrying it with his teeth.

“Okey Dokey Lokey” said Pinkie as she then wandered off. Sylar then dropped his suitcase and opened it up again to reveal several small bags were in it. They were full of coins and the bags were marked “1000 Bits”.

“Must be this place’s currency” thought Sylar, the voice and these powers that be must have given him some money to help him try and build a new life here.

He then closed it again and saw to his left was a watch repair shop which had a sigh which said “for sale!”

“I guess that’s kind of a sign” said Sylar. Taking his suitcase he then entered the place where he was greeted by a blue pony with a white beard and a walking cane.

“I’m new here and I read the sign which said the place was for sale!”

“Yes I’m selling the place and moving to Manehattan to live with my daughter and her family” said the pony.

Sylar cringed at the horse pun and asked “how much do you want for this place?”

Soon the pony left with boxes full of his possessions after selling the place for 3000 bits and then said “good luck running the old place!” as he left.

Sylar then unpacked his stuff from his suitcase, putting his cloaks and dark clothes in a cupboard and putting his Activating Evolution and broke Sylar watch on a bedside table upstairs. He also put in the doors of the table a cassette tape which had a recorded phone conversation that he had with Chandra which also was from the suitcase. After being finished he went downstairs to the main workshop.

He also saw on the table in the workshop were several broken watches and several watch fixing tools. Seeing he could use hooves like his hands he then began fixing the watches using his intuitive aptitude ability.

“Sent to a new world just so I could slip into the same normal boring routine of fixing watches” thought Sylar bitterly “the watchmaker’s son became a watchmaker.....it’s so futile.”

He knew he was special and destined for better than this but until he could think of a plan he might as well do with what the has got.

After finishing he walked to a wall and then strangely felt his tail twitching. He then saw a clock falling from the wall and managed to catch it with his telekinetic ability and place it on the table.

“I predicted what was going to happen due to a twitch, like that Pinkie Sense that pink pony described to me” thought Sylar “my powers are still working!”

After fixing the clock he used his telekinetic powers again to hang it back on the wall. He also tried using his freeze ability on a mouse which got inside the place.

He then decided to go out to get some supplies for his stay. Putting on a black coat, taking 2 money bags and locking the door he then walked out and managed to make his way to the market place.

After buying some fruit, bread and vegetables from the market (enough to last at least a week) he then went back to the watch repair shop which would be his new home.

Opening the handle showed the place was not locked.

“I’m sure I locked it” thought Sylar as he opened the door.....

“SURPRISE!”

Sylar looked on in horror as the place was full of ponies and different coloured streamers and balloons were everywhere and there was even a giant cake.

Pinkie then dragged him in and said “I throw a party for every new pony in Ponyville! I kind of made a key for myself when you went out and I got together this little party for you! What do you think? Do you like it, huh, huh, huh?”

Everypony was then thrown out as well as the balloons and streamers. Pinkie was thrown out last.

“But how about the cake?” Pinkie asked. The cake was then thrown at her face.

“AND DON’T COME BACK!” Sylar shouted furiously as he took his groceries in and then slammed the door shut.

“If you didn’t want a party you could have just asked” said Pinkie “you didn’t have to be such a Meanie McMeanpants!”

Sylar was angrily putting the groceries in the cupboards and fixing the room. He was thinking “put me here for a chance at redemption my @$$! She probably just put me here to torment me and it’s working! If only she had just let me die when that Japanese idiot Hiro stabbed me with that sword!”

Sylar then thought of something, if Pinkie had that Pinkie Sense then maybe more ponies had talents like that as well, a grin formed on his face.

A little later Pinkie was telling the other Mane 6 about her meeting Sylar earlier that day though she left out the fact he managed to make her head open with splitting it as she had forgotten about it.

“......and when he came back he just threw the party guests out and three the cake at my face” said Pinkie.

“He sounds like right hooligan” said Rarity.

“Yeah a real jerk” said Rainbow Dash.

“Sounds like he needs to have some manners bucked into him” said Applejack.

“Settle down girls” said Twilight “I’m sure he’s just trying to adjust to life in Ponyville! I was kind of like that when I first moved into Ponyville as well!”

“But Twilight......” said Rainbow Dash.

“I’m sure he just needs time to adjust to Ponyville and learn to make friends” said Twilight “if you see him just try to be friendly and don’t do anything hasty! Right?”

Rarity, Applejack and Rainbow Dash grumbled but nodded.
