the student

Guess who we’re meeting today? And since back then I didn't know who it was, well it's time to find out.

*** *** *** ***

We were still in the carriage and Shine was still asleep, but we were almost to the castle and I could only make out that Celestia and a purple pony was there. I've got like twenty-twenty vision.

"Hey Luna, who's Celestia's student?" I asked.

"Oh, it's Twilight Sparkle, the element of magic, which is why Celestia is training her in magical power." Luna replied.

"I've been hearing about these elements but I don't know what they are." I stated.

"You will find out about it sooner or later." Luna said.

"Ok, Luna." I said.

There was something about this human that always dropped her royal persona for some reason, but it felt...right.

"Oh, we’re here." I said.

"Huh? Oh, right." Luna said.

"So in what part of the castle does Shine Bright live?" I asked.

"In the servant’s quarters, in the 5th room, 3rd bunk." Luna said

"Well that was oddly specific, but ok," I said, "Do you mind telling your sister that I will be late to meet her student?"

"Very well." She replied.

So I walked for an hour with shine bright in my arms to get to the servants quarters, and it got really tiring. But for all she put herself through for me, I'd walk for a farther distance. But once I got there the servants that were on break just stared and snickered and mumbled something that I didn't hear. I got to room 5 and put her down in her bed. I left a note on her bed. It said

“Dear shine bright,

Thank you for even worrying about me, but don't exhaust yourself just for my sake.

Thank you and please get some rest.

signed,

Axel Equinox.

P.S.

I carried you to your bed so don't be wondering.”

So I went to the throne room just to see if the royal sisters were there. They were there, but with the student I assumed was Twilight Sparkle. I could tell she was female. The other thing I just noticed is that the population is woman dominated.

Weird, but once this Twilight Sparkle caught a sight of me, she jolted toward me and started to...examine me?

"Uh, what are you doing?" I asked her.

"*Gasp* It speaks our language!" she said.

"Well, my first impression of you is that you are rude." I exclaimed to her.

"Yes, that was very rude of you, Twilight." Princess Celestia said.

Twilight looked very flustered and sad.

"*sigh* Fine, you can examine me. But don't call me ‘it’, call me Axel." I said a little irritated.

She immediately felt better, but looked at the Princess first for permission, and the Princess nodded.

"You are truly a really interesting specimen..." Twilight said.

"Hey, what did I say about calling me something I'm not. I'm a human, and my name is Axel Equinox." I said really irritated.

"Hey princess why did you say for me to meet her." I put more pressure on her.

"Because she's the one who your going to live with." she replied

"Wait, what?!" Twilight and I screamed in synchronization.

"And I want you two, to know each other better." Celestia said, "And that’s why I arranged this meeting."

"I also know that you had that seizure recently.." she said but when I saw twilight look at me with regret for even touching me.

"...And I am sorry about that, but I decided to let you off the work you do with Luna." she said

"But I like my job with Luna." I said sadly.

"I know that you like my sister because she saved you life when you were about to die of blood loss.." She said when I saw that Twilight had a face of horror. She looked like she regreted everything that involved me.

"..and that's why you still want your job, but your new job is to go with Twilight and live in Ponyville, so please don't complain." she said finally.

"*sigh* I'm going to miss a lot of ponies here in the castle" I said

"I know you will." Celestia said.

"Am I leaving today?" I asked

"Yes, you are." Celestia replied

I noticed that Luna had nothing to say to this. She was just there, but she actually looked sad in all of this.

"Well, I'll miss you, Luna. It was fun hanging out with you. I wish we could hang out more." I said. Luna blushed and agreed on my statement, "Please tell shine bright so she won't worry."

Mean while...

*** *** *** ***

*yawn* Shine bright finally woke but in her bed. She found a note on the foot of her bed. She saw that it had her name on it so she opened it.

“Dear shine bright,

Thank you for even worrying about me, but don't exhaust yourself just for my sake.

Thank you and please get some rest.

signed,

Axel Equinox.

P.S.

I carried you to your bed so don't be wondering.”

She blushed really hard that he carried her all the way toward to her room, but she took the advice and went back to sleep like Axel told her.

Back to where we were...

*** *** *** ***

"I have the carriage waiting in the bay room." Celestia said.

"ok." Twilight and I said. Man it's weird that we even do that.

"Then please go." Celestia said.

So we went to the bay room and found the carriage waiting for us.

"I'm sorry." She said sadly

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I didn't know what you've been through." she said.

"It's ok, it was all in the past." I said.

"No, it's not ok. I didn't know what you were through." she said.

I put a hand on her mouth and said.

"Please, it was in the past. I don't want to think about the torture of the past." I said on the verge of tears.

"Please just, I don't want to talk about it." I said. She could tell by my eyes that she really shouldn't have said anything.

"Ok…"she said.

"Now, come on we have to get on that carriage." I said

We entered the carriage and off we were to Ponyville.
