Chapter 7- Another Moon Appears

I left Twilight's house and decided to head over to the park seeing as it's a nice out. I walked over to a bench and sat down.

“Why does she so adamant.” I said as I let out a sigh and looked up, but someone's voice got my attention and I turned and saw a girl with light pink hair and light yellow skin walking a bunch of dog’s.

“S-slow down.”  I heard her say as a lot of the dog’s pulled the other way. A small dog seems to break free and ran up to me.

“Loss something?” I asked as I picked up the dog.

“Oh umm thank you.” She said as some of the dog tried to chase a squirrel.

“Need a hand?” I asked as I walked towards her, she nods her head and I took a few leases from her.

“So do you you have a dog? You seems to be great with them.” she asked as I followed her as she walked

“No. I own a bird that's all.” I answered.

We walked around the park and made our way back to a building I have seen from time to time, the sign outside read ‘Animal Shelter’.

We walked to the back door, and I saw its true to its name. There are many animals in cages or in pens playing. “Not many people come help.” The girl said as my eyes fell on two puppies playing tug of war with a rope.

“That's kinda sad to hear… if I have the time mind if I come by and help?” I asked as I help put the dogs away.

“Sure.. um what's your name.” She said shyly

“Sorry I guess I forgot to mention. It's moonstone.” I said, but it seems she tensed up a bit. “Is something wrong?”

“N-no. Um its Fluttershy, my name that is.” She said quietly

“Yo is that you Moonstone.” a female voice called, I turned around and saw Tree Hugger, a green skin girl with red braided hair.

“Wait you know each other?” Fluttershy asked.

“It's complicated.” I said remember saving Tree Hugger a year ago or so ago from a corrupted gem. “So you final staying in one place?” I asked Tree Hugger.

“For now, this place gives out good vibes.” She said as she leaned on the door frame. “I heard you are attending CPA.”

“Ya..” I look at the clock over head and remember I have a shift in a few minutes. “Sorry can't stay, I have work soon.”

“Oh that's ok thank for the help.” Fluttershy said.

I waved goodbye and head to the front door and bumped into a girl with the whites skin and purple hair. “Sorry, I must've not been looking where I was going.” I said moving aside to let her in.

“Why thank you darling.” She said giving me a Sunny Flare vibe.

“No problem.” I said as I head out and to work


The following Monday was peaceful, the only real difference was Twilight was keeping her distance and hanging out with a girl I have never seen before. Lunchtime rolled around and I was sitting alone watching Twilight and this new girl chat like they have been friends for ever.

“Thats Moon Dancer, They were best friends till she moved away because of her dad's job.” Sugar Coat said sitting right next to me as the other followed with Lemon Zest sitting in front of me.

“Wow, how did you know that?” Indigo asked

“I was in they same class as them and they were inseparable.” Sugar Coat said as she took a bite of her sandwich.

“Soo why is she so distant with, you two seem close during the dance?” Sunny asked.

“Just a fight that's all.” I said with a shrug

“Is it about her research?” Sugar Coat asked getting spot on.

“It's something dangerous and she just too thick headed.”  I let out a sigh. ‘She really reminds me of-’

“Umm so can you help me with this science real quick?” Lemon asked as she put a piece of paper.

I looked at the paper and saw that it was half done. “Really your not done.” I raised and eyebrow making her chuckle.

-After school-

I tried to leave school and head home but Gilda was waiting for me. “I see you have had a fight with your girlfriend.” She said.

“She is.. Arrg never mind what do you want?” I asked with a grown

“Will I found this picture and it looks like you are in it.” Gilda said showing a picture of me in the Amazon fighting a beast. “It was taken a few years back.. What is that?”

“I don’t know, that guy must be my look alike.. Anything else?”

“I doubt it.” she rolled her eye’s

As I walked passed her and saw Twilight was talking to Moondancer and our eyes meet for a second before looking back at Moondancer. With a sigh I made my way home.

As I walked in I was greeted by Bob flying over to my head. “Hey there, how was your day.” I asked it as it rubs its head on my cheek. It kawed in delight.

I walked over to my game console and booted up Ponymon. As I was fighting a gym a felt a strange energy wave like someone was using a warpad. “That can’t be good. Someone trigered the sensor. ” I mumbled as I got up and looked out the window of my apartment in the direction of the only Warpad in miles.

I turned and looked at Bob, it look agitated too. “I guess I could go check it out.” I said as I saved my game.

I decided to fly over so I transformed into a bird scaring Bob. “Want to go for a fly?” I asked getting a kaaw in excitement. With that we both flew out the window.

We made it to the warpad to know one in the area. ‘I guess that Homeworld ship was here check this place out… It was only a matter of time till they found this place.’ I thought to myself flying around the warpad before heading back home.
