It was sunset and Pinkie Pie had alr day set up a party in Jet house, he however was said to be doing something important and that he would return around 6. Pinkie took this opportunity to plan a surprise party behind his back, even though she knew he wouldn't like it. Jet was across the town looking for quills and parchments. He got the money on take it from fluttershy, saying it was to cover the cost of a gift to Twilight and didn't have any money. She gave him 15 bits which was enough for 4 bottles of ink and 60 pieces of parchment. As he was heading back to his home he caught sight of Luna flying above him look down with a sigh of relief and concern.
"Jet! It's so great to see you. I just wanted to let you know Celestia noticed you were missing and is on a lookout for you. Please watch where you go, it might..." Luna wasn't able to complete that sentence. It wasn't her time or her place. She froze in her track as Celestia was flying towards them. With a quick shock spell, she used her magic in a beam of lightning, only to be stopped by Luna's sheild.
"What have you been doing with him Luna? He isn't meant to be here as he threatened Twilight." Celestia gave a look of. 'You can't be here'
"He's changed. He made up with Twilight and they are now good friends. I, myself, like him as a friends, and you should to. He's done nothing wrong after I let him out and he had plenty of chances to do so. I think that proves his loyalty. Luna said as she picked up Jet.
"I still have to confront Twilight if he could stay, she hasn't reported and friendship notes recently." Celestia glanced at Jet as he coughed to signal that h was about to say something.
"I got one. Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light. So give up important things to be with your friends."
Celestia took this into thought. She hadn't thought of this before.
"I got one more. True friends stab you in the front."
"How do you know that?" Luna asked.
"Experience. Most my friends died in the fire, the he others just left me after saying I lit the fire on purpose. I don't know what happened because the printer I was using erupted with Sparks and it set the carpet on fire."
"So it wasn't your fault about the fire then."
"Well kinda, I mean it took a lot of effort to not put the fire out with the bucket of mop water in the closet right next to it."
"Why didn't you put it out then."
"Because I hated the school. All the teachers were mean saying I couldn't have a nap during recess."
"That some pathetic excuse for burning a building." Luna emphasized the word burning.
"Jet I don't know where your from but that's some sad past you have. I want you to promise me that you won't hurt anypony again. This is your chance to have freedom." Celestia spoke up with a few signals that she was terrified of Jet's past.
"I promise."
"Pinkie promise?" Luna asked.
"Yes, I promise to the moon and back." Jet caught a glance of Luna taken aback a little. "That means I will have to travel to the moon if I break this lie. Humans use it all the time."
"I didn't know that you take promises so seriously." Luna said. 4 second pause.
"So, what have you been doing with Jet, Luna?" Celestia asked.
"We've been working on a project." Luna kept her talking at a minimum.
"What project?"
"Well the project hasn't really started yet and what we are doing now is just a preparation." Jet spoke.
"And what would this completed project do?" Jet took a few moments to think.
"I currently finished constructing the wand for the project. Tomorrow we will be headed to the Crystal Empire for powering the wand."
"Why the Crystal Empire?"
"I wonder that myself." Jet said. He then shared a whisper to Luna who only giggle.
"What did you say?" Celestia asked.
"Not a thing." Jet said quickly.
"No seriously. What."
"We. Are. Going. To. The. Empire. Stop tickling me Luna!" Jet said as he burst out laughing. Luna also laughed. Celestia was annoyed because she wasn't getting the information she wanted.
"For the last time, what will this project do? This is the last question I'll ask you for tonight." She said to Jet.
"Create life and pretty much destroy any need for food, water, sleep, and also provide a solid protection against heat, cold, damage, pressure, and air suffocation. This magical work can achieve the ability to change time, teleport, wards, and, probably the most important, a new dimension." This information flooded Celestia's mind as she nodded and left.
"That was interesting." Luna said.
They were both outside Jet's house, about to apen the door.
"I have something to ask you." Luna spoke up.
"What would that be?"
"But you must first promise me that you stay my friends." Jet nodded in agreement.
"I just wanted to say, I want you to stay with me." Luna hid behind her hooves.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't want to you to leave me. Can you stay here in equestria?" Luna spoke softly.
There was no hesitation from Jet.
"Of course I will, I can't leave anyway." Jet said.
"But I thought you said you could teleport with this type of magic. I was think you were just getting yourself home." Luna started to worry.
"Ooo yah. I guess I can get back to the 5th school where everyone hates me. And to get home where only my uncle would care not of me. And to all those 0 friends that I have. Or even to enemies that I have that want to kill me. I don't want to go back. Not alone or afraid." Jet spoke with passion.
"I guess you could say that your life was horrible and want something better. I can help you with that." Luna says.
"That's nice, thanks."
"Jet wait, do you want to spend the night together, with each other?"
"I'd love to." They both turn away from the door and started walking away from the house. They spot Pinoie Pie in the distance saying something soft.
"Wat?" Jet shouts.
"Go throught that door. NOW." Pinkie demands. This was unexpected. He knew she was crazy but this was weird. Her hair was the same. The only difference would be the ruffness in her voice.
"No." Jet says.
"O yes you will!" She says.
"Yah you're right. I will... Tomarrow."
"YOU CANNOT MISS MY PARTIES!"
"Easy with the caps lock."
Pinkie ran up to Jet hitting his chest, knocking him back to the door. Luckily the doorknob was missed.
"Now to inside."
"Is there a party in there?"
"Maybe." Pinkie gave a nervous smile. Creepy.
"You idiot, don't you see what you've done?"
"Did I do something wrong for throwing a party for a friend? I don't think so." Pinkie Pie approached Jet closely.
"There are silverwood saplings in my house. They make poniessomeponies crazy and more colorful. It's also illegal to plant one here because of this." Jet said.
Pinkie's smile became a one of fear, then hatred. "Why didn't you tell me?!?"
"Pinkie calm down." Luna said.
"How can I calm down? Everypony will be crazy if I don't do anything. Are there effects permanent?"
"Luna?"
"For the tree, yes. For the saplings, no." Luna said.
"O thank Celestia" Pinkie sighed in releif, then looked at Jet who somehow managed to get behind Luna.
"Three, two, one." Jet said as when he hit one, Pinkie sprinted to Luna.
Jet jumped on Luna and grabbed her wings. Luna gave a gasp to this. Jet's chest was on her back and moved both of his hands to the tips of Luna's wings and flapped violently. They both caught flight as he let go of her wings and Luna started to fly on her own. A cannon was heard where Pinkie was. A ball of confetti hit one of Luna's wings causing turbulence. Jet stumbled and fell off Luna. He was falling for what feeled like forever. Even though he didn't have a good life, he wasn't ready to give it up. He had just made a new friend, someone he cared about, and he didn't want to lose her.
"Gotcha." Luna had him placed on her back and into a sitting pose.
"Thanks, but I could've survived the fall." Jet said.
"I'm not taking any chances, best friend." Those were the words Jet could only dream of having. He felt happy and warm next to Luna. The feeling was mutual.
They continued throught the night, looking at the stars and the moon and the trees and the sunrise. It was nice to have someone be there for you.
