Chapter 10: Heavy Meets Sunset

Chapter 10:Heavy Meets Sunset

It was yet another glorious day for the city of Canterlot. The sun was gradually rising over the mountain and it's rays were descending upon the city as it lit up with activity, but there was activity stirring even before the sun came up. Sun was beating down on the small house of Heavy Weight as the colt had already gotten out of bed, and was now drawing something down in a book. He appeared to be drawing what looked like the spells that he had used just yesterday when he fought the colt Dark Shine. One page looked like the tentacles he used as he smiled at their usefulness.

He then smiled as he then put the previous touches on the previous page that had a drawing and detailed description of the high speed comet form that he used to completely defeat Dark Shine and left him completely incapacitated. Heavy couldn't have asked for a more powerful spell that day. The colt laughed as he named the spell and called it... "The Comet Charge" and turned to the next spell and immediately chose to name it "Tentacle Rise". Heavy was just about to put the finishing touches on this spell before he suddenly heard a knocking on his door and frantically closed the book before slipping it in his back pack.

"Heavy Weight...! Are you ready in there son?! You know what today is right?"The voice of His mother Golden Heart called from behind the door.

"Yeah mom...! I'll be out in a second!"Heavy called out as he jumped off his seat and slipped on his back pack.

He adjusted his back pack as he then made for the door, he truly did know what today was, and he could not be more excited about it if he tried. This was his official first day as the new student of princess Celestia, and he felt proud knowing that. He made it to the door and let out a big happy sigh as he magically opened the door, and was met by the smiling face of his mother Golden Heart.

"So Mr student of Celestia. Are you ready for your first day as the princesses student?"Golden Heart asked while already knowing the answer.

"I sure am mom...! You just wait, when I'm finally done with her teachings. I'm going to be the greatest unicorn in all of Equestria!"Heavy promised with a confident smile.

"I have no doubt that you will, now come along son. We don't want to be late.Golden Heart said as she took the lead with her son right behind her.

Heavy smiled at her as he followed his mother out of his room and began descending down the small flight of stairs. He began to think about what it will be like to be an esteemed student of Celestia, and it only made him want to get there even more. He then couldn't help but notice his mother coughing as they came down the stairs and came to a complete stop as Golden Heart coughed hard into her arm. This immediately snapped Heavy out of his day dreaming and loo at his mother with worry for his mother as he watched Golden Heart quickly wipe her arm on her brown cloak and turned to him with a smile.

"Heavy...? Are you alright son?"Golden Heart asked while Heavy maintained his worry.

"Mom...? Are you sick? Are you going to be alright?"Heavy asked out of concern.

"Yes... I'm sick... But it's nothing to worry about sweetie. It's just a cold."Golden Heart frantically lied to keep her son from worrying.

"Seriously... Is there something wrong mom?"Heavy said now more worried than before.

"I'm fine Heavy Weight. Everything is going to be just fine..."Golden Heart tried to reassure while Heavy just gave her a small nod.

"Okay mom... If you say so."Heavy said before an apple was suddenly levitated to him.

"Here... I'm sorry we didn't have time for breakfast, but I'm sure the princess has something that will help."Golden Heart said as they both walked to the door while Heavy calmly ate his apple.

Golden Heart managed to magically open the door and lead the way as they both left the house and began walking through the streets of the city, and the streets sure were full of activity today. Ponies of all kinds appeared to be very busy this fine day as Heavy and his mother looked at the traffic of ponies pushing their way through the streets.

They both looked at each other before turning back to the crowd and letting out a stressful sigh as they readied themselves for a shoving match with the crowd. They immediately took off and began pushing their ways through the crowd. Heavy was small and was able to maneuver himself around and under the crowd of ponies. While Golden Heart had to push and shove her way through the crowd, earning her a few dirty looks from other ponies.

Heavy noticed that his mother was having an issue with moving through the crowd as he quickly managed to move out from the crowd and get to an empty part of the street. He then turned back and saw his mom about to be carried away by the crowd. Heavy Weight gasp as he watched his mother starting to panic and immediately became scared as he frantically lit up his horn and in a flash of bright blue magic. Suddenly made his mother disappear from the crowd, and instantly reappear right in front of him. She looked around until she noticed her son once again giving her a look before she let out a small chuckle.

"Sorry about that Heavy Weight. I just kind of lost myself in the crowd. Thanks for the help there son."Golden Heart said as she took the lead again.

"You sure you're alright mom...?"Heavy asked.

"Of course sweetie. I couldn't be better, now come on. We don't to be late."Golden Heart replied to her worried son.

Heavy gradually followed his mother, but did not take his eyes off her as he noticed her moving a bit slower than usual. He knew there was something wrong, but his mother seem set on making sure he didn't know what it was. He shrugged it off and continued to follow her as they walked on through the more clear streets as they made their way to the castle of Canterlot. They had even lazily ignored the two stallions that were stationed at their stands and were watching them like hawks as they passed by without an issue.

Heavy kept his head low as he felt the thoughts of his mother and the thoughts of him being a student of Celestia colliding together to see which one he was more concerned about, but his mother already took notice of his down in the dumps feeling. She noticed that they were nearing their destination and suddenly smiled as she turned to her son and gave him a friendly nudge. He looked up in confusion at his mother and suddenly noticed her looking down the clear street that lead to the castle and then grew his own smile as he realized what she was implying.

It was then that Golden Heart took off in a sprint down the street with Heavy hot on her hooves. They raced through the streets laughing as they looked to each other with competitive spirit. Now Heavy was feeling his spirit for today returning. His mother was fast and light on her hooves and was beginning to out run him as they neared the castle, but Heavy had his own little plan.

He quickly lit up his horn with ice blue magic and began pouring it into his legs and hooves as then suddenly began to move even faster. He slowly began to catch up to his mother as he then noticed her starting to slow down. He instantly managed to give her a wave before suddenly taking off like a bullet down the street. He ran at daunting speeds they were proving to be too difficult for Golden Heart to see.

She then widened her eyes as she suddenly saw her son suddenly stop right in front of the castle and suddenly making a gust of wind pass by him as the giant metal gates of the castle shuttered and shook from the wind. Golden Heart quickly began running out of breathe as her sprint slowed to a jog and then to a walk as she managed to catch up to her son at the gate. Heavy looked to her and noticed her being completely out of breathe as she took a moment to catch her breathe.

"My... Goodness Heavy... You are a quick one aren't you... You were using... That body enhancement trick you made up before didn't you?"Golden Heart said as she managed to catch her breathe, but not without giving off a few raspy breathes.

"Uh...yeah, sorry if it counts as cheating mom..."Heavy said with a nervous smile.

"It's alright... Heavy... That was actually very resourceful. It helped you match a more experience pony. I guess I'm not as young as I use to be..."Golden Heart breathed out as she joined her son's side and they both looked to the gate.

They both looked to the castle through the golden bars of the massive gate and marveled at the immense building. The castle was perhaps the most amazing sight that Heavy has ever seen before, and to think that his father had served this place for years and possibly knew every part of it. He looked at the white stone foundation and the multiple colors around the building including the golden roof with detailed sculpting around it.

Heavy and Golden Heart were a lost for words as they marveled at the incredible structure and realized that this was where Heavy was going to be studying and training to be the best he could be. Suddenly as they felt themselves drifting off. They were suddenly reawaken by reality as they heard banging on the golden gate and quickly turned their heads to see through royal Canterlot guards in golden armor, as well as a slightly bigger stallion in traditional captain of the royal guard out fit.

"Who goes there! State your business here or leave!"The captain suddenly said sternly as he looked down at both of them.

"Hey...! I'm here to start my teachings with the princess. Can you please open the gate so we can pass and not be a jerk about it?!"Heavy yelled back as he noticed the stallion inspecting him.

"Those eyes... That face... It screams determination and recklessness. You must be the son of Mega Weight, that would explain your impulsive attitude...!"The stallion said as he narrowed his sights on Heavy.

"My attitude...?! It's your attitude that stinks here pal...!"Heavy said as the stallion began to growl while the guards behind him couldn't help but chuckle at the taunt.

"That's enough Heavy Weight, let me handle this,"Golden Heart said as she then approached the gates with a sly smile,"Hello Husky Hooves, It's been far to long. I see you are just as impulsive as ever."

"Hmm... Golden Heart, It has been far too long. I see you are just as beautiful as ever, and you still have that same passive aggressive attitude that Mega always seemed to like about you. I can see why..."The captain said in almost a flirting tone.

"How sweet... Would you please be a dear and open the gate for us. Princess Celestia is waiting for us. It's Heavy's first day as her student."Golden Heart said in a fake flirting voice.

"Gross..."Heavy said to himself at the adults activity.

"Perhaps I can Golden Heart... Miss Golden Heart,"The captain said as he then turned to his guards,"Well what are you waiting for?! Open the gate!"

The guards quickly jumped a bit before frantically moving to the side of the gate. Heavy and Golden Heart simply just stood there, while she smiled proudly. While Heavy just cringed his nose at her about her gross conduct with the captain of the royal guard. Golden Heart noticed Heavy staring at her and blushed as she gave him an embarrassed smile.

"Sorry about that son. I knew Husky back when we were kids and he would do everything in his power to try to get me to like him, but I had already fallen for your father and he never forgot how I stood him up,"Golden Heart explained as the golden gates gradually opened for them,"Maybe one day you will find a special some pony... Or ponies, herds are legal here."

"Mom...! That's so gross. I don't want any mare friends,"Heavy complained as they walked through the gates and looked to the castle,"Can we please just focus on today and not talk about girls."

"Alright... If you say so Heavy."Golden Heart said slyly as the doors to the castle then suddenly opened.

The guards and even captain Husky immediately bowed down as princess Celestia appeared. The doors swung open and the princess immediately lit up as she saw Golden Heart and Heavy right before her eyes. Not only that, the princess also appeared to have a little friend with her. Heavy Weight noticed as a filly suddenly appeared right from behind the princess and smiled at them as they both began to descend down a small flight of stairs.

The filly appeared to have an orange coat that looked like the setting sun itself. Her mane looked like fire with deep red and matching orange colored man and tail, she was topped off with light bluish and greenish eyes as she was the first one to make it down the stairs. Celestia was then next to follow her as she made her way down the stairs. Her rainbow mane blew along with the wind as her and the filly now stood before Heavy and Golden Heart and were smiling with a bit of excitement in their eyes.

"Hello Heavy, and to you as well Golden Heart. I'm so glad you could make it for your first day,"Celestia said as Heavy bowed respectfully to the princess,"Rise Heavy, there is no need to be so formal with me my new faithful student."

"Sorry about that, he was always taught to give good first impressions. It's good to see you as well on this fine morning princess Celestia."Golden Heart said while Heavy rose to his hooves.

"Indeed it is, I apologize If you had any difficulty with the guards,"Celestia said as she looked to the guards that were still bowing,"Guards...! You may rise and continue on with your day."

The guards slowly rise to their hooves and gave the princess a little nod before walking off to continue guard duty. It was at that time that the filly decided to make her presence known as she appeared right in front of Heavy. Celestia took notice of her and could see the curiosity in the young filly's eyes for Heavy. She let out a small chuckle as she then decided to give introductions.

"I'm sorry, where are my manners? This is my student Sunset Shimmer. She will be Heavy's sibling student while he's here."Celestia said while Heavy just gave a confused look as the filly then suddenly smiled at him.

"Hi... My name is Sunset."The filly known as Sunset Shimmer said to the colt.

"Hi... I'm Heavy Weight. I guess we're going to be learning together from now on huh?"Heavy guessed while the filly giggled at him.

"Yeah... I guess we are. It's nice to meet you,"Sunset said before turning to the princess,"Princess Celestia, you didn't tell me my new sibling student was cute."

Golden Heart and Celestia then suddenly began to let out adorable chuckles at how cute Sunset was being about Heavy while Heavy was currently wanting to barf at a girl calling him cute and giggling at him.

"Oh Heavy, lighten up there son. I think she likes you."Golden Heart said while still giggling at her son while he sat there blushing.

"I think she likes him too. Any way, how would you both like a small tour of the castle?"Celestia said while gesturing to the castle.

"Why we would love a tour of the castle. What do you think son?"Golden Heart asked while Heavy managed to put on an excited smile.

"Sure...!"Heavy said before suddenly being taken by his hoof by a very excited Sunset Shimmer.

"Then come on...! I'll show you around!"Sunset said as she dragged the blushing colt up the stairs while the mares just laughed at them.

"She's a very adorable little filly. I bet they will get along just fine."Golden Heart said before letting out a small cough.

"Are you alright? Do you need any help?"Celestia asked as the mares began to follow Heavy and Sunset.

"No... I'll be alright..."Golden Heart said while wiping a spot of blood from her lip.

"You can't keep hiding this from him. He's going to find out sooner or later, and seeing his resourcefulness. I would have to say that it may be sooner..."Celestia said while Golden Heart let out a heavy sigh.

"I know... He's already suspicious of me..."Golden Heart said as they looked to Heavy and Sunset.

Meanwhile Sunset had managed to drag Heavy to the top of the stairs before he was finally released by the filly. She looked back to him and gave the colt a smile before gradually opening the doors once more and gave Heavy the sight of his life. As the doors opened. Heavy was now staring at an immense great hall of the castle, its royal decor was divine, red carpet traveled through many different hall ways including the massive stair case that had a large red carpet traveling up it. The floors were a shiny type of marble and pillars were aligned with white smooth stone and golden decor. Heavy's jaw hung low at the enormous sight before Sunset Shimmer closed his mouth for him.

"Welcome to Canterlot castle!"Sunset announced just as the mares joined them.

"So... Do you like where you will be staying during the day?"Celestia said as her and Golden Heart joined them.

"Wow... This is great...!"Heavy Weight said to himself in astonishment as they began their tour of the castle.
