The Nephilim’s Coat
“How would your friend not be born because of a kiss?” Twilight asked the next day. It was just after the revelation that it was, quite literally, my birthday. It also took me a while to get what it meant when Melody said that her father saved Equestria Fifteen years before I met her. But now I understood that her father was Wayvern, the Kaiju hunting King of Equestria who killed the Kaiju King Relies, and himself to save the universe from them. I also saw the Equestrian Flash around Twilight’s castle and Melody often called him “Dad” though she knew he wasn’t her real father.
“Well, Twilight, my friend is your daughter, but she isn’t Flash’s by birth. Her father died saving Equestria.”
“I already don’t like this guy,” Flash said.
“You will, he was your best friend when he met you.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, though that slowly turned to aggravation when he tried to separate himself from Twilight for her sake.”
“Why would that make me mad?”
“I never heard the whole story.” Twilight thought about it… then she came to a decision.
“I’ll wait for this mystery pony, what’s his name?” I was shocked… But I told her his name, leaving out his title.
“Wayvern, that’s all I can tell you about him.” The man in the coat came into the café. Man? No way! This was a woman! Her hood was down now showing yellow skin and red hair, braided with a bow at the top. “Apple Bloom!?” she turned to me.
“There you are Champion, and not quite,” She said. She didn’t sound like Apple Bloom at all, not even the accent was the same. “My name is Siu, I’ve come to bring you back.”
“To my time!?” I was getting excited… then I remembered the others who were still sitting at the table behind me and got kinda depressed. “Will I ever see them again? In this time?”
“You can see these friends of yours whenever you want,” Siu said. “But you need the Nephilim’s coat to return to this time period. I have one prepared for you, here.” She pulled a coat similar to what she was wearing out from behind her. “It’s the only way for you to go home too, so you really don’t have much choice.” I couldn’t think too hard and took the coat.
“The Heart is the one thing that Transcends both Time and Space, I will be back.” I promised one last time.
