//------------------------------// // Chapter 6: Mare On The Moon (Friendship Is Magic) [Revised] // Story: My House Is Now A Pocket Dimension And My Front Door Is A Portal To Equestria // by TheGuyWhoDayDreams //------------------------------// Today is the day where the summer sun celebration starts, its also the day where Twilight Sparkle shows up to Ponyville. I was waiting for this day, after all of this I can inform Princess Celestia about my predicament and I have a chance to be sent back home, not going to lie a small part of me hopes that I won't be atomized on the spot. Knowing what's to come, I am wearing my backpack with stuff to prepare for what's going to happen. I am gonna have to be prepared if I get dragged along somehow, and frankly I want this to be over quicker. We got invitation to Twilight's welcome party, I am surprised I am invited at all. The letter I received was specifically address to me, Pinkie wanted to make up to me about my first party in Ponyville. Also my arm got better, I just need to wait one more day before I can take the cast off. Right now, I am right beside Fluttershy as she directs the bird choir in practice for the celebration. I've spent some time hanging out with Lyra, talking about hobbies, cutie marks, and mostly about my kind. We got off well. I also hang out with Button Mash on occasion. Nothing interesting happened after that, although I heard rumors of me being spread across town, I haven't heard any of these rumors besides one about me being a psychic. I am starting to enjoy Equestria a bit, the more time I spent with them and their nature, its beautiful to be real with you. Haven't seen the rest of Fluttershy's friends ever since the party. They are all preparing for the celebration like Fluttershy. “Oh my, stop please, everyone.” The birds stopped singing at once. She flies up to one of the birds “Umm. Excuse me, sir?” She address a bird in the choir. “I meant no offense, but, your rhythm is a teeny-tiny bit off.” “Now, follow me, please. A-one, a-two, a-one two three.” The birds begin to sing again as she directs them with her hoof. Wait... something's wrong, Twilight should've showed up and interrupt by now. I turn towards the bush to see a poorly hidden lavender unicorn with a quill, ink and scroll levitating in a lavender glow beside it. I face palmed and sighed, already knowing who it is. “I know you’re there, I can literally see you!” I point my arm towards her, she yelped in surprised as she dropped everything she was levitating. The birds were scared away as Fluttershy turns towards my direction. She then came out of the bushes and went up towards us. “How did you find me so quickly?” I face palmed again. “You should take hiding classes, because you are hiding so poorly. I can see your head and the stuff you are levitating out in the open Twilight.” She give a sheepish smile for a moment before turning to a look of surprised on her face. “H-how did you know my name?” She asked me in a mixture of curiosity and nervousness. “Ponies of this town think I am a psychic so just go with that, I know there’s a dragon with you, he can come out now.” Fluttershy yelped in fear after I mention a dragon. Twilight was even more surprised then before. Spike then comes out of the bushes and approach Twilight, Fluttershy flinched expecting a terrifying dragon. But upon seeing Spike her personality switch instantly as she gasp. “A baby dragon!” She exclaimed, most of the bird flew away from her excitement as she knocks Twilight away sending her flying to get a closer look at Spike. “I have never seen a baby dragon before! And he’s so cute!” Spike turns to Twilight with a smug look. “Well, well, well.” He turns back to Fluttershy with a prideful look as he crosses his arms. “Oh my, he talks. I didn't know dragons could talk. That's just so incredibly wonderful I,” She flies up in the air “I just don't even know what to say!” Spike was then levitated on to Twilight's back. “Well, in that case, we’d better keep going.” She said. “I was here to check up on the music for the celebration, it seems to be doing well.” She begins to walk away. “Wait, wait!” Fluttershy called out and went after them with me following behind. “What’s his name?” “I am Spike.” “Hi Spike, I’m Fluttershy. Wow, a talking dragon! And what do dragons talk about?” “Well, what do you wanna know?” “Absolutely everything.” Twilight groans after Fluttershy said that. I stayed silent as I walk beside Twilight. She turns to me while Spike was talking about his life. “Sorry uhm, I never got your name or what you are?” I turn to look at our keeping my neutral face. “Name’s Jumper, and I am the first and only Human in a Equestria.” I answered her. “Well Jumper.” She said grin as a quill and scroll appears, oh no. “I want answers about you, your kind, culture, history, everything.” She leans close to my face in excitement. I push her away a bit, that smiles of hers creeps me out. “We can do that later.” We just listened to Spike's entire life story as we walked, it was boring but hey the more you know. Twilight is pretty persistent on getting to know me. She is creeping me out with all of these questions, of course I am pretty persistent on not answering them now. We are getting close to the Golden Oaks Library. “...and that’s the story of my whole entire life! Well, up until today. Do you wanna hear about today?” Spike asks Fluttershy. “Oh, yes, please!” She eagerly gallop. “Gyah!” Spike yelled in surprised as Twilight sudden turn around to face us. “I am so sorry, how did we get here so fast?“ We looked and see we are standing infront of the Library. “This is where I'm staying while in Ponyville and my poor baby dragon needs his sleep.” “No I don’t— whoa!” Spike tries to interject but was interrupted when he was toss of her back and onto the ground. “Aww, wook at dat, he's so sweepy he can't even keep his widdle bawance!” Twilight said with an unconvincing smile at the end as Spike looks at her with an amused look. “Poor thing,” Fluttershy picks Spike up.“you simply must get into bed...” She flew into the Library before getting kicked out by Twilight. “Yes, yes, we'll get right on that. Well, g’night!” Twilight quickly said as she slams the door close. I simply just look at the Library with a neutral look before looking at Fluttershy as she turns to look at me. “... So the window?” I just say. Assuming that's how Fluttershy got in the Library in the first place. The party inside the Library was at swing. Twilight shuts herself in the upstairs bedroom like the antisocial she is. The party goers couldn't really ignore me as I stuck out like a sore thumb, most either tremble in fear or glare at me. I looked to see Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash approaching me. I look over them in caution mostly because is with them Rainbow who is glaring intensely at me that it made me nervous. “Oh, Hello Rarity.” I grin nervously. “Why hello darling, I haven’t seen you since your party.” “Yeah, by the way my name is Jumper, Rarity.” “A pleasure to meet you Jumper. By the way I have to ask, why do you wear clothes all the time, I haven’t seen you without one.” Rarity asks. “Well, we are really against being naked. Since we are pretty much 95% skin we wear clothes for protection and comfort, also being naked is considered public indecency.” “Oh!” Rarity exclaimed. “You must simply come to my boutique when you have the time to, I really want your measurements.” She said with a creepy look and smile. “Uh, no thanks I already have my own clothes.” I turn her down. Applejack then approaches me. “Howdy, I am Applejack.” She greeted. “Though I reckon you already knew?” I nodded as we both shake our hand and hoof with each other, I did detect a hint of weariness from her. Our conversation wasn't bad, I was enjoying chatting with Rarity and the others. Rainbow just stands there, only glaring with suspicion. I guess whatever happened after I left, her friends, most definitely Fluttershy give her a huge scolding. She may be brash but she knows how to listen to her friends. Somehow I manage to get dragged into this, now I am standing inside the town hall to watch Celestia raise the sun which won't happen right now because of Nightmare Moon. Thankful the ponies are to busy anticipating for Celestia to glare at me as I am standing right beside Twilight. “Isn't this exciting?” She zoomed up to Twilight. “Are you excited, 'cause I’m excited, I’ve never been so excited— well, except for the time that I saw you walking into town and I went,” She deeply gasp. “but I mean really, who can top that?” “Something major that’s going to happen, and I am not talking about Celestia.” I said, Twilight turns to me with a concern look, she knows what I am hinting but she hopes that it was wrong. Music begins to start as Fluttershy is directing them at one of the balconies as the sounds of horns and trumpets accompanied them. The spotlight turns to shine on to an elderly mare on the stage, Mayor Mare as she begins her speech. “Fillies and gentlecolts, as mayor of Ponyville, it is my great pleasure to announce the beginning of the Summer Sun Celebration!” The crowd cheers. “In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this, the longest day of the year!” I tap my shoes on the floor with a frown on my face, impatient. “And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land, the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and every day,” Because her sister was banished so she has to take care of both celestial bodies. “The good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria...” “...Princess Celestia!” Mayor Mare called out as Rarity pulled the curtains back, just as I was expecting she wasn't there. “Huh?” Rarity said in confusion. The crowd chatters in confusion and nervousness. “This can’t be good.” I heard Twilight said in concern. “Remain calm, everypony, there must be a reasonable explanation!” Mayor Mare tries to calm the crowd down. “Ooh, ooh, I love guessing games! Is she hiding?” Pinkie said, oblivious to how concerning the situation is. Well at least to them not me. Rarity searched around the balcony before saying. “She’s gone!” The crowd gasps. The ponies around me are asking questions. I can feel some glares being pointed at me. “Ooh, she’s good.” Then Pinkie yelped and the crowd gasps again as we see a mist forming something on the balcony. “Oh no... Nightmare Moon!” She said just as the mist forms into a stand black alicorn mare with blue armour. And then Spike faints off of Twilight's back. “Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I’ve seen your precious little sun-loving faces.” Nightmare Moon address the crowd as most tremble in fear. “What did you do with our Princess?!” Rainbow Dash yelled out, she was going to charge at her but Applejack hold her back by pulling her tail. She laughs .“Why, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?” “Ooh, ooh, more guessing games! Um, Hokey Smokes! How about... Queen Meanie! No! Black Snooty, Black Snooty—” Before she could say anymore Applejack shoved an apple into her mouth. She went up to Fluttershy “Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned on the moon for a thousand years?” Fluttershy shy away as the birds flew away. She then went up to Rarity as she was still at the balcony. “Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see th-” “I know who are you, your Nightmare Moon, aka the mare on the moon.” I cut her off, the crowd gasps for a third time. Nightmare Moons turns to look at me. “Well well well, somepony who remembers me.” Nightmare Moon said. “And it is a lovely specimen that I never seen before, then you also know why I'm here.” “You’re here to... to...” Twilight gulps. She chuckles “Remember this day, little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night will last forever!” she then laughs as a thunder strikes in the background. I pulled a hand across my face, my patience is wearing off. “Oh my god, just get your fat ass moving dipshit!” Nightmare Moon stops laughing and looks at me as everypony stares at me like I have committed a sin. “I need to talk to Celestia about something and the only way for her to show up is beating the shit out of you.” Hearing my juicy language ponies cover their childrens ears. “My, my, bold one here aren’t you?” She said as she narrows her eyes at me but I remain unphased by her gaze. “Seize her! Only she knows where the Princess is!” Mayor Mare shouted. Knowing the guard won't do shit, I grab an object from my backpack, a bar of soap that I never really use when it was given to me. I reeled by and threw the bar of soap as hard as I can straight at Nightmare Moon. “Tell back yo- Argh!” She flinched in pain and held a hoof on her eye. Either by sheer skill or luck, I manage to hit her in the eye as her attention was focus on the guards. The guards take advantage of this, they manage to get a hit on her chest before getting zapped away by her. She turns to me with an angry expression. Knowing who threw it “You’ll pay for that you hairless monkey!’ She then transforms into a mist as she escapes town hall as Rainbow follows her. I rushed to the entrance of the town hall to see Twilight Sparkle leaving with Spike on her back. I pursue her and I reach the Golden Oaks Library. I follow her inside the Library and upstairs, she was busy putting the baby dragon to sleep. Twilight gives him a blanket. “You’ve been up all night, Spike. You are a baby dragon after all.” “Yet, he talks and acts like a kid.” I said as I roll my eyes. She nodded before her eyes widen surprise before turning towards me, she sighs in relief once she sees it was me. “Oh, its just you Jumper.” She said she exits the bedroom and went down to the main room as I follow her. “Well yeah, sorry fo-” My face was then smacked by a book and Twilight Sparkle was careless throwing books everywhere, searching for a specific book. “Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can I stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?” She groan in exasperation. I pull off the book on my face. “Have you checked under E on a shelf?” Twilight gave me a confused look and she ran over to a shelf that was labeled E. Her eyes widen when she finds a book titled "The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide". “The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide.” She read out the title when she pulled it out. “This could work.” “And just what are the Elements of Harmony?” Twilight turns to see Rainbow glaring us both “And how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh? Are you both spies? Whoa!” Applejack bites on Rainbow's tail and pulled her back. “Simmer down, Sally. They ain’t no spy. But they sure knows what’s going on. Don’t ya?” She asks as she and her friends approach us. “When you told about about the mare in the moon, what you’re saying is actually true?” Fluttershy asks me, I nodded as everypony focus their attention on me. “Nightmare Moon is Princess Celestia little sister.” Everypony was surprised by this info. “She used to be named Princess Luna before her bitter jealousy manifest into what she is today.” “That can’t be true can’t it?” Twilight said. “In the tale, it said that two regal unicorn sisters ruled together. I have known Celestia for years, never once I’ve known she has a sister.” I turn to look at Twilight. “History is written by the victors, some random guy I met said. Its most likely a sore subject for her, thus she probably refuse to tell anypony about it, not even in a story book, not even to her favorite student,” I shrugged. “Now lets get to stopping her, I need to talk to Celestia and she will only show up once she was beaten.” “I read all about the prediction of Nightmare Moon. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop her,” She flipped through the pages. “Here it is. There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said, the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now...” “The Everfree Forest!” We all exclaimed as we all now stand infront of the forest. “Whee! Let’s go!” She cheerfully gallops before Twilight stops her. “Not so fast. Look, I appreciate the offer, but I’d really rather do this on my own.” I hold my hand up to her. “You are not doing this alone Twilight, just look at my arm.” I held up my cast infront of her. “I got bitten by a timberwolf in there, the only reason I wasn’t in a worst condition or dead is because Angel saved my ass.” Twilight reeled back “If you don’t have a death wish, let us join you.” “Jumper’s right sugarcube.” Applejack said “We ain't lettin' any friend of ours go into that creepy place alone. We're stickin' with you like caramel on a candy apple. Even if he’s such a foul mouth.” I huffed at that. “Are you sure you want to come with us Jumper? Your hand still hasn’t been fully healed.” Fluttershy asks me in concern. “Like I said, I really need to talk to Celestia. Ain’t no way your convincing me out of this.” I said as we started walking towards the forest. We venture into the Everfree Forest, while they walk in a single file line, I stay close to the cliff wall as possible. Twilight decides to speak up. “So, none of you besides Jumper have been in here before?” “Ugh, heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful.” Rarity shivered. “And it ain’t natural.” Applejack added “Folks say it don’t work the same as Equestria.” “You mean the fact that the plant life, animal life, and weather do everything on their own.” All four besides Twilight and Rainbow nodded at me. “Its normal to me really.” That got everyponies attention. “Jumper! How could this dreadful place be normal to you!?” Rarity said to me in horror. “Well where I live, its like the Everfree Forest except the creatures living here.” I shrugged. “Despite the last time I’ve been here, its feels the most like home out of all places in Equestria. You ponies only found it unnatural because you live in a land of magic. To everyone else in the world, yours is unnatural.” As I expected, we heard a crumbling sound, the ground beneath them started to fall apart in a rockside as everypony who isn't a pegasus tumble down. “Fluttershy! Quick!” She shouted as she dives after them. “Oh my goodness, oh my goodness.” She quickly follows after. I take off my backpack and grab gloves, my elbow and knee pads. I quickly put them on and strapping back my backpack and I carefully slide down the rockside. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy manage to grab Pinkie Pie and Rarity, looking down I saw Twilight hanging off the edge of the cliff. “Hold on! I'm a-comin’!” Applejack lets go off a hanging root and slid to down and grab Twilight. I could've helped but Twilight needs this, so I purposely slow my descent down hill. “Applejack! What do I do?” Twilight exclaimed. Applejack doesn't what to do until she looked up. “Let go.” She said to Twilight “Are you crazy?” Twilight snapped at her, finding it unbelievable. “No I ain’t.” She swore. “I promise you'll be safe Twilight.” “That's not true!” Twilight was panicking. “Now listen here. What I’m sayin’ to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe.” Applejack promised her. After a few moment, Twilight decides to trust her and lets go, she screams as she fell only to be caught in both Rainbow's and Fluttershy's hold. Twilight almost slipped out of the hold. “Sorry girls. I’m not used to holding anything more than a bunny or two” Fluttershy apologises as Applejack climbs down the cliff. While I am still up here. I am standing on the edge of the cliff looking over them. “Uh girls?” I exclaimed as they looked above to see me. “Need a little help getting down.” Fluttershy flew up to get me. I looked at Fluttershy with concern. “Are you sure you can carry me Fluttershy? I am 69 kilograms.” “I’ll try.” She begins carrying me by grabbing my shoulder as we slowly descent, I can see her visibly struggling. Rainbow just sighs and goes up to help Fluttershy. When we reach a safe height, I jump down and landed infront of them. “Alright lets get going.” I started walking when. “Hold it right there for a second.” Rainbow Dash looks at me in suspicion as I turn to look at her. “When we were walking back on top of the cliff, you were conveniently walking along the cliff wall when a rockside happened. And you prepared knee pads for this.” She taps on my knee pads. “There’s no way you could’ve prepared for something like a rockside unless you already knew about it.” Everypony turns to look at Dash and looks at me. I sighed. “You’re right for once Rainbow. I did know a rockside was going to happen. I know alot, even the future.” Everypony looked at me in shock. “And yet ya’ just kept quite about that!?” Applejack said angrily. “... Sometimes bad things need to happen inorder to get a good ending.” I turn to to continue walking while the rest just looked at me confused before catching up to me. Everything then went like in the show. Fluttershy with the manticore, Pinkie with the terrifying trees, well for them as I just simply walk pass it as there's nothing stopping me from doing so. Rarity with the sea-serpent Steven Magnet, I use my umbrella to make sure we aren't soaked in water. Twilight tries to get something out of me since I know the future, but I denied it and said that she will understand soon. Overall I didn't bother to intervene and make me the spotlight. I just watch them at the sidelines, with some commentary or whatever thrown in. After awhile of walking, we found it. In the distance we see an old castle ruins across a chasm. “There it is, the castle of the royal sisters that holds The Elements of Harmony.” Twilight said. “We made it!” Twilight shot towards it. “Twilight, wait for us!” Applejack said as we quickly follow Twilight. “We’re almost there.” Twilight then completely falls off the cliff, she was screaming as she falls down to the chasm This caught me by surprised, acting quickly I dive and using my long arms, I catch Twilight by the tail. I slowly begin lifting her up. “I did not expect you to fall off a cliff.” I said, Twilight looks at me in embarrassment. “What’s with you and falling off cliffs today?” Rainbow Dash said as I pulled her to land. “Blame the writers.” I said, everypony that isn't named Pinkie Pie turns to look me at confused. “Now what?” Pinkie complains. “Duh.” Rainbow shows her wings to us. “Oh yeah.” “Now that I think about it, why can’t you just carry us over the riverbank by flying.” I questioned. Everypony realize this and face hoofed. The rainbow mare dived down to the chasm and into the mist. Lifting the bridge and bring it to connect it to the other side. Speaking of the other side, Rainbow was grabbing the rope-bridge and bring the other side of it to the other side. “Rainbow...” An unknown voice calls out to her. “Who’s there?” Rainbow looks around, trying to find the source. “Rainbow...” the voice repeats. “I ain’t scared of you! Show yourself!” Hse reels up, preparing to fight. “We’ve been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the best flyer in Equestria.” The voice replies. “Who?” Rainbow asks rather stupidity. “Why, you, of course.” “Really?! I mean... Oh yeah, me. “Rainbow bragged. “Hey, uh, you wouldn't mind telling the Wonderbolts that, would ya? 'Cause I’ve been trying to get into that group for, like, ever.” “No, Rainbow Dash. We want you to join us, the Shadowbolts.” Three figures then comes out of the mist. They’re pegasus, wearing black and blue suits “We’re the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest, and soon we will be the greatest in all Equestria, but first, we need a captain.” The female shadowbolt said. Rainbow's eyes goes starry-eyed. The most magnificent...” “Yep.” “Swiftest...” “Yes.” “Bravest flyer in all the land.” “Yes,” She chuckles “It’s all true.” “We need...” The female whisper into her ear. “you.” “WOOHOO! Sign me up.” She flies in the air in excitement. She goes over to the rope-bridge. “Just let me tie this bridge real quick and then we have a deal.” “No! It's them or us.” The female Shadowbolt gives her a choice. “Rainbow, what’s taking so long?” She narrows her eyes to see three figures, the leader notices them and uses magic to expand the mist, blocking our vision entirely. “Oh no. Rainbow! Don't listen to them.” Rainbow cannot hear her from the other side. “She won’t.” I said as a sweat drops from my head. “Well?” The Shadowbolt said, waiting for Rainbow's decision. “You... Thank you! For the offer, I mean, but I’m afraid I have to say no.” She didn't hesitate, as much as she dislike Jumper, she wouldn't let one pony make her ditch her friends. She fixes the bridge and went back to her friends. The Shadowbolts soon after she left, disperse into mist and left. Rainbow flew back to us as her friends cheered. We walked across the bridge, I was surprised that it can support me. “See? I’d never leave my friends hangin’. Well, except for you Jumper.” Rainbow gets rewarded by a smack in the head by Fluttershy. And by smack I mean a light tap. We soon manage to cross the bridge and to the other side as we walked towards to ruins of the Castle of the Royal Sisters. We are now inside the castle, most of the roof is gone, moss and vines everywhere, a few broken windows and several pillars. Pretty much what you expect from a ruin castle. “Whoa.” Twilight said. In the centre is a monument that held up five stones, five of the six elements of harmony. “Come on, Twilight.” Applejack said. ”Isn’t this what you’ve been waitin’ for?” “The Elements of Harmony, we’ve found them.” Twilight exclaimed as she approaches it Rainbow and Fluttershy begin collecting the stones ”Careful, careful!” Twilight said not wanting the elements to break. “One, two, three, four...” Pinkie counted them before letting out a gasp. “There's only five!” “Where’s the sixth element?” Rainbow Dash asked. “The book said: "when the five are present, a spark will cause the sixth Element to be revealed".” Twilight explained to us. “What in the hay is that supposed to mean?” Applejack asked, wondering what she means. “I'm not sure, but I have an idea.” She kneels before the stones. “Stand back. I don't know what will happen.” “Come on now, y'all. She needs to concentrate.” Applejack lends us outside to wait. Soon it happened. “Aah!” We heard Twilight screamed. “Twilight!” They all shouted, we ran back inside the castle to see Twilight nowhere in sight. “Twilight?” “What?” “Where did she go?” “What happened?” “What’s going on?” Everypony was worried for Twilight, wondering where she is. “Twilight, where are you?” Applejack said, worried about her. “Look!” Rarity pointed at a nearby tower that is filled with light. “Come on!” Applejack said, we begin running to the tower to catch up with Twilight. Sudden, we were by shadow looking creatures. They looked like ponies but their bodies are a nightly mist and their eyes are yellow. I didn't see this coming at all. I'll call them shadow ponies. “What the!? What the hay are they!?” Rainbow Dash exclaimed. She and everypony turn to me for answers. “I don’t know, Nightmare Moon probably sent them at me because of what I did back at the town hall.” I assumed. “Just called them shadow ponies but right now we need to get pass them.” I exclaimed. The shadow ponies came charging at us, we begin to fight. Rainbow dived at them, piercing through them as they disperse to smoke before fading away. Pinkie grabs her iconic party cannon out of nowhere and blast them, not surprised since she never left home without it. Applejack was just bucking them with her hindlegs. She knocked one of them into a crowd, vanquishing all at once. Rarity uh... yeah the last three took care of them before she could do anything. Fluttershy was just cowering behind me. More shadow ponies begin to appear. There's seem to be to many for them to deal with. “There’s to many of them! How are we going to get pass them now.” Rainbow said. We desperately try to think of a solution. I have only one however and I am not sure it will work. “Uh... I’ll use my secret technique for this.” I said with my backpack off my shoulders as it was placed on the ground beside me. “Oooooh, I wonder what’s your secret technique is?” Pinkie said with a curious tone as everypony looked at me in anticipation. I stare at the army of shadow ponies as they prepare for a charging stance. I reach into my backpack and use my secret technique. “RANDOM BULLSHIT GO!!!” I yelled as I throw a barrage of random items in my bag. Honestly I have alot of junk at my garage so I just lazily grab them anything without thought since I knew that the main six will win regardless. Everypony was stunned by my epic technique. Even more stunned as the objects I threw are destroying the army as it went through them. Soon they're all dispersed, man they're about as weak as a skeleton army in clash royale. “That... worked?” Rainbow said in disbelief at my technique that I just pulled out of my ass on the spot. “Hey, whatever works, works.” I said to them as I picked back up any of the objects I threw that aren't shattered or broken. We then headed towards the tower and once we reached it, we climbed up the stairs till we finally reach the top. At the top we see Twilight on the floor with Nightmare Moon cackling. The stones broken to pieces and shards around Nightmare Moon. “Twilight!” All of her friends shouted as Twilight notices us. “Sorry we are late.” I said, panting from climbing the stairs while carrying my load. Twilight's eyes widen with revelation with a spark when she sees me and her friends. She stands up and looks at Nightmare Moon with a confident expression. “You think you can destroy The Elements of Harmony just like that? Well, you're wrong, because the spirits of The Elements of Harmony are right here.” The shards of the elements all glowed and shivered around Nightmare’s hooves and rose up “What!?” Nightmare Moon exclaimed. “Applejack, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the spirit of... honesty!” Applejack finds herself surrounded by the shards as she floats in the air. “Fluttershy, who tamed the manticore with her compassion, represents the spirit of... kindness!” So did Fluttershy. “Pinkie Pie, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the spirit of... laughter!” And Pinkie Pie. “Rarity, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift represents the spirit of... generosity!” Rarity. “And Rainbow Dash, who could not abandon her friends for her own heart's desire represents the spirit of... loyalty!” And lastly Rainbow Tra- “The spirits of these five ponies got us through every challenge you threw at us.” “You still don't have the sixth Element! The spark didn’t work!” Nightmare Moon feels troubled by this display. “But it did! A different kind of spark.” She turns to smile at us as her friends smile back at her. “I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you, how much I cared about you.” She tears up. “The spark ignited inside me when I realized that you all... are my friends!” A light shined above her, and the sixth element appeared, floating down towards Twilight. “You see, Nightmare Moon, when those Elements are ignited by the... the spark that resides in the heart of us all, it creates the sixth element: the element of... magic!” They all shined with power, the shards are transforming into necklaces while the sixth element became a crown on top of Twilight's head. “Jumper.” I turn around to see Twilight smiling at me “This is what you meant, isn’t it?” I nodded at her. Nightmare Moon growled at me. “This is all your fault!” She then blast a bolt at me, it was to sudden for me to react as I got hit by it, creating an explosion as smoke covers him. “JUMPER!” Everypony exclaimed seeing him getting blasted, especially Fluttershy. The smoke clears as I open my eyes slowly to notice. That I was completely fine. “W-what, how is this possible!?” Nightmare Moon in disbelief said before getting engulfed by a huge rainbow laser by them. “Nooo! Nooo!” Nightmare Moon screamed in horror. Soon a bright white light flash all of us. As the light faded, I open my eyes. I see the main six unconscious on the ground. I walk over to Twilight and sit down beside her, then I poke her in the cheek. She grumbles as her eyes open to see me. “Wake up.” I told her as I held a helping hand. She takes it and uses it to help for stand. “Ugh, my head.” I hear Rainbow groan. “Everypony okay?” Applejack asked everypony if they're ok. “Oh, thank goodness.” Rarity said, she was happy when she sees her tail now grown back. “Why Rarity, it's so lovely.” Fluttershy complimented her, Rarity poses. “I know! I'll never part with it again.” Rarity waved her tail, never wanting it to go again. “No. Your necklace.” Fluttershy pointed out. “It looks just like your cutie mark.” Upon hearing this everypony checked theirs “What?” Rarity sees that it has her cutie mark with her signature purple colour “Ooh. So does yours.” She pointed out to Fluttershy which also has her cutie mark with her pink. “Look at mine! Look at mine!” Pinkie shows her was a bloon shaped with blue colours. Applejack's was an orange apple. “Aw yeah.” Rainbow's was a red lighting shape gem. Twilight looks up to see her crown has a star shape gem. “Gee, Twilight! I thought you were just spoutin’ a lot of hooey, but I reckon we really do represent the elements of friendship.” Applejack said while smiling softly at her. “Indeed you do.” A motherly voice said. We all looked through the window, the sun started to rise through the horizon, as a light came down from the sun, revealing a tall and regal alicorn, her coat was white tinted pink, her mane was flowing with multiple colors, and wore a crown, hoofshoes, and a mantle, and her 'cutie-mark' was a shining sun! It was none other tha- “Princess Celestia” Twilight said as she and I approaches her mentor. Everypony but her and I bow to her. “Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student. I knew you could do it.” She soon notices me. “It seems you didn’t just make friends with other ponies.” Celestia said referring to me as they both hug. “Jumper, its Princess Celestia. bow down, show some respect.” She tries to force me down by levitation but was confused and feels abit exhausted when nothing happened . Celestia giggles. “It is alright Twilight. He is new after all.” She looks at me. “I welcome you to Equestria, what’s is your name?” “Jumper, I am Jumper the human.” I replied, keeping a straight face. “But... you told me it was all an old pony tale.” Twilight asks her mentor, confused. “I told you that you needed to make some friends, nothing more. I saw the signs of Nightmare Moon’s return, and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, but you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart. Now if only another will as well. Princess Luna!” She walked over to what remained of Nightmare Moon, Pieces of armour scattered everywhere. Right there is an alicorn, smaller than Celestia, she had a deep blue coat and gentle blue mane and tail, wore a little black crown, and had the same cutie-mark, she gasp when she saw Celestia. “It has been a thousand years since I have seen you like this. Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister.” This time nopony said anything, they already know that she is Celestia's sister from me. “Will you accept my friendship?” She held a hoof infront of her. Everypony leans forward in anticipation, Pinkie lean to much causing her to fall over. “Whoa!” Luna looks at her hoof then hugged her sister tightly. “I’m so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!’ Luna apologies to her as tears stream down her eyes. “I’ve missed you, too.” Celestia comforts her. Pinkie was sobbing as she wipes her tears with a handkerchief, then she went full blown crying as she creates a pool of tears around her. “Hey, you know what this calls for?” Pinkie exclaimed as she suddenly switch emotions. “A party?” I said, knowing what this calls for. Pinkie giggles, then confetti begins flying everywhere. “A party!” Everypony in Ponyville is celebrating the defeat of Nightmare Moon, confetti and cheers everywhere. Although I did want this to be over with, I decided to spend more time here before I ask Celestia. I make sure to spend extra time hanging out with Fluttershy, Lyra, and Button on this occasion. I stand next to Twilight, which was looking a bit gloomy. Celestia notices it and address to her. “Why so glum, my faithful student?” The Princess approach both of us. “Are you not happy that your quest is complete and you can return to your studies in Canterlot?” Princess Celestia asked. “That's just it.” Twilight sadly confessed, her eyes fixed on the ground. “Just when I learned how wonderful it is to have friends, I have to leave them.” Celesta takes a moment to respond. “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 study the magic of friendship. She must report to me her findings from her new home in Ponyville.” Everypony cheers at this. “Oh thank you, Princess Celestia! I'll study harder than ever before.” The book worm pony vowed to her. “Isn't this exciting? Pinkie exclaimed. “Are you excited cause I'm excited I've never been so excited, well, except for the time that I went” She gasp deeply “but I mean really-” Ok... its time. I look right at Celestia, her height is just high enough for us to see each other at eye level. “Celestia?” She turns towards me. “I need to have a word with you.” Everypony present upon hearing this focus their attention at us. “I need your help with my situation.” “Oh? What do you need help with mr Jumper?” Celestia wonders, Luna overhears this and joins in. “Look at me,” I replied with a firm tone, Celestia was confused by this. “I am sure you never since beings like me before?” She nodded. “You’ve probably assume I came from a far away land. But no, its much further.” The Princess raises her eyebrow. “I am from another universe entirely, this isn’t my reality.” Everypony gasp in shock except for Fluttershy who already knew and the Princesses who just stare at me wide eyed. “I detected no fault hoods.” Celestia said. “Can you explain?” I nodded and begin to explain everything to her, from my time in Equestria from start to finish. I did reveal my knowledge about the future but I kept the details extremely minimal. She closes her eyes. “I am sorry Jumper, but this is something me and Luna haven’t dealt with before within our entire lifetime,” I sighed. “But we will try to help you, we will search through our entire library in hopes of a way, its not guaranteed however.” I smile, there's hope. “However,” Luna chimes in. “There is one thing on my mind. Its about you Jumper.” I cock an eyebrow at her. “How did you survive a blast sent at you back at the castle.” Celestia and the main six looked at me. “Yeah,” Twilight said. “You were hit by a magic bolt from Nightmare Moon, yet you left without as much as a single scratch.” Celestia puts a hoof in our chin in thought before she has an idea. “Stand back, I have an idea why.” Everypony take a few steps back as Celestia lits her horn at me, she seemingly is trying and struggling but nothing happened to me. “Just as I thought.” Princess Celestia said as she stops pointing her horn at me as she pants a bit. “What did you do?” I asked. “I tried to levitate you off the ground, but its like you weight a ton.” Celestia explained. “I have a theory, since you are from a completely different universe, our magic either gets blocked or absorb by you.” I grimaced, picking up what she is implying. “Does... does that mean?” my voice cracking a little. “It means you are completely immune to magic.” Everypony gasps at this “Since you are immune to magic, even if we have found a solution, we can’t send you home as that requires magic.” She gives me a sympathetic look. “I am sorry Jumper, there’s nothing we can do.” Her last words echoed through my head as she said that. I dropped to my knee. Darkness swallows everything around me as I see darkness everywhere. Then I feel a something warm, I snapped out of it to see Fluttershy hugging me. “Shh, oh you poor thing.” She gently said. I slowly got up and looked around me as Fluttershy lets go off the hug. I turn and walked away as they all watched me leave.
