//------------------------------// // Newfound Power // Story: My new life in Equestria // by Razor Colorado //------------------------------// August 5th, 1:00 P.M. Canterlot palace I lay silent in a peaceful rest, just to awake. Waking up, I saw Twilight was gone. I just lay there, hoping for her to return soon. For about a half an hour, I just lay in the bed. That's when I remembered something from last night, Starswirl the Bearded's book. Being it was on the bedside table, I picked it up and opened it to the first page. It read "Telekinesis, Small Objects". I started to read the page, which went onto another page, and another. I never really liked reading, but this fascinated me! I reached the end of the last page. Twilight stood in the doorway, too quiet for me to notice. I set the book on the floor and took a stance. My horn started to glow a transparent light blue, then the book did as well. It slowly started to lift, it elevated to about the height of my muzzle. I stood up straight without a wobble. Which was unexpected. "Great job!" Twilight said, startling me and making me drop the book. "Oh, sorry." She entered the room to make sure I was alright. "It's okay." I rubbed my forehead. "You know, it took me several days to master that, you must have an extremely high IQ. Well, for a beginner." I was completely silent. Did she just hit on me..? No, you idiot, of course she didn't! "So..." "So what?" Her wings fluttered. "I can't help to notice..." I rubbed the back of my head. "Yes..?" "How..." My mind paused as I was about to say "you seem attracted to me.", But this came out instead; "We are compatible..." "How so?" "Well, we both have a high IQ, you have a high IQ, right?" She nodded. "How we both seem to have magic powers and how you have already accepted me as badically one of your own..?" "Well, as a princess, it is my duty to look over the land as a ruler and help anypony I can." "And why were you waiting for me at the hospital?" "First off, injuries and illnesses are very rare in Equestria. And even if there are any, it's usually just like a broken wing that heals in a couple of days." "Okay. But that still doesn't explain why you were there." I was getting aggravated, something told me that's what I usually do and always did, it never stopped. "Well, there has only been one coma in recorded Equestria history until yours, so I was sent to study any readings." "Readings? For what?" I was baffled out of my mind. "Well to start, I was given any blood test results, then I used a machine I built a while back to test readings on my friend, Pinkie Pie, so I packed that up and brought it here for a few weeks." "A few weeks, huh?" She nodded. "Did you find any records on me?" She shook her head. "I searched each and every file of our unicorn population, nothing matched your visual description. Or blood type." "Nothing? As in, nothing whatsoever?" Damn, this was heavy. "No, you are unique in colour and blood type." "How do I not share any other unicorn's blood type?" "You have a very rare one for a unicorn. A unicorn is usually born with a B, a D or a C, in occasional cases an E." "What am I?" The stress was getting to me. "O-Positive." She said with a sigh. I was about to give up on finding my origin, but she spoke. "Then again, we did find several mental conditions." "What?! You're lying!" I whipped my head in her direction. "No, I'm not!" "What are they? Do they link up to anything?" "They don't help us that much, but we found three of them," Losing patience!! "we found Aspergers Syndrome," What the hell was that? "Obsessive Compulsive Disorder," Seems familiar... Go on... "and something called 'GAD', never been reported before." ... ... ... Ya' lost me. "What the hell's GAD? It has to have been reported at a young age for somebody!" She cocked her head at me, raising an eyebrow. Awkward! "What?" "SomeBODY? Don't you mean somePONY?" ... ... ... I'm gone again... "What..?" "We say somepony. It's common sense." She said in a tone that said "DUH!" "Okay... Could I just practice magic now..?" "Sure." She took a seat on the bed (which was more like lying down on her stomach). "Well, go ahead!" "Alright." I placed the book on the floor and stood normally. The light blue glow (aura?) surrounded my horn and the book, then the book lifted from it's spot without question and moved to in right front of me. This was much easier than I though it would be, fascinating as well, especially considering I had Telekinesis abilities! Twilight seemed pretty amazed by this feat, but I didn't really see why. Was everybo- I mean pony like this? "That was amazing!" ... That sounded so queer, how is lifting a book without touching it amazing? "How so?" I asked, trying to sound as nice as I could. "Like I said, it took me several DAYS until I mastered that, and that's the simplest magic there is." "Ahh. Right." That awkward moment when you or someb- PONY, damn! Else says something like two seconds to five minutes ago and you automatically forget it. While the book was still in mid-air, I also picked up a small mirror to look at myself, the black mane, the brown eyes, the light bluish gray coat, everything seemed perfect, until I set it down to see Twilight staring at me with wide eyes. "You've already mastered Telekinesis with multiple objects..?" "Yeah, so?" "So you've already skipped to the fourth chapter!" DAMN... "You should now also know how to lift mid and large size objects." "Yeah, sure..." I picked her up with my magic, moved her to the other side of the room and laid her down on the sofa there. There is NO WAY this is happening right now. She stared at me with wide eyes again. "I'm speechless..." "I lifted you from a bed to a couch twenty-five feet away, big deal!" Was she always like this? "Which is amazing for a new student!" "Student?" What the hell is she talking about? "What do you mean?" "I'm taking you to be my student in magic!" Oh geez... This was going to be a long day...
