There are some powerful ponies that exist in the world of Equestria, some are made or chosen by fate, and on certain and rare occasions, they are born. In this land of Equestria there are stories and tales of brave ponies of all kinds that do noble things or great things, not all of them are good however, but on this faithful day. Equestria was about to be given one of the most gifted ponies Equestria has ever had.
In the beautiful mountain city of Canterlot, a city that was the current home of Equestria's ruler princess Celestia, she was an Alicorn pony who had recently lost a very powerful member of her royal guard. He was a legend and a very beloved captain of her royal guard, and his lost was mourned by many after a failed attempt to assassinate Celestia ended in his great sacrifice.
It hit Celestia hard to lose such a talented and powerful captain, but it was then that she had discovered that her beloved captain had a wife that was with foal, knowing this she had a feeling in her gut that something special was coming. She just didn't know how special...
It was now a dark and stormy night for Canterlot, and many ponies were now inside their homes for the night, all except for one unicorn mare who had now gone into labor and had made it to the Canterlot hospital. She bursted through the doors and quickly struggled to walk over to the secretary counter, but she didn't need to do too much to get the attention of a few doctors.
"HELP...! PLEASE...! MY BABY IS COMING! SOME PONY PLEASE HELP...!"The unicorn mare shouted from within a brown cloak.
She had then dropped to her knees and felt herself getting weak as she could see two stallions and a mare doctor and nurse outfits surrounding her, she felt her vision become blurry as she felt herself being picked up and placed on a gurney. She had looked around as she felt the light dim from her sight and finally fall unconscious.
The mare had then awoken once more thanks to the excruciating pain she felt as she looked to her large belly before realizing that her cloak was off and she could see her grey coat and her light blue mane and tail in a complete mess. She found herself fixed up to machines in an emergency room as she felt herself starting to give birth, her vision came back as she saw a team of two stallion doctors, one Pegasus, one earth pony, and a mare earth pony nurse. The nurse had noticed the pregnant mare was awake and immediately rush to her aid.
"W-What's happening...?! AAAAAAAAGH!"The unicorn screamed in pain.
"Doctor Light Well, the foal is starting to come... Be ready!"One doctor called to the other while putting gloves on.
"Yes sir! Doctor Hoover her contraction is already under way!"The other doctor said as they both positioned themselves towards the mares flank.
"Ma'am I need you to take deep breathes and tell me your name...!"The nurse said in a calm, but serious voice as she held the unicorns hoof.
"My name...Ah! My name... Is...Golden Heart...!"The unicorn whimpered as she glimpse at her cutie mark of a golden heart on her flank.
The nurse was now smiling through her white mouth mask as she held onto the hoof the unicorn now known as Golden Heart. She watched the unicorn start to take deep breathes while the two doctors were working on the baby. It was then that the operation was interrupted by a voice coming from a room with a one way mirror that was right next to them.
"Doctor Hoover, Is this the one they call Golden Heart?"An elegant voice called from the room.
"Your highness...?! I... Yes... She just told us her name...! We... Did not expect you to visit!"The doctor exclaimed while staying focused on the delivery.
"Never mind that doctor, focus on that foal!" The voice demanded.
"Yes of course your majesty, nurse Red Cross what's the status on Golden Heart?!"Doctor Hoover called to the nurse.
"She's stable! Come on Golden Heart push! You have to start pushing!" The nurse yelled as Golden Heart started to push.
She let out ear splitting screams as she felt the foal coming, she began kicking her legs while doctor Hoover struggled to keep her legs still, they started to see the foal coming as doctor Light Well felt sweat dripping from his head.
"Keep pushing Miss Golden Heart! It's almost over!" Light well called to Golden Heart.
Suddenly as he said that, the craziest thing happened, the lights began to flicker as the air around them began to feel hot, heavy, and almost impossible to breath in, Light Well and Red Cross looked around in confusion while Doctor Hoover remained focused on the foal.
"Doctor Hoover, what's happening in there?!"The elegant voice questioned.
"I don't know, but we must continue on!" Hoover said as he remained focused.
It was then that Golden Heart shocked them all by suddenly being surrounded in a large and very dense ice blue aura, their eyes widened as the in labor mare looked around to her sudden surroundings. It was then that they all heard loud static noises and turned to see machines that were hooked up to the mare getting struck by bizarre bolts of ice blue lightning that appeared to be coming from the magical aura.
"Doctor what is happening?! The nurse asked as she turned to Golden Heart who was still pushing," Miss Golden Heart, you are a unicorn, are you perhaps doing all this?!"
"I... I... AAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Golden Heart screamed as the doctors saw the head of the foal and widened their eyes in disbelief.
"This... Is... Impossible!" Doctor Hoover said as he was now holding a new born colt in his hooves," It's not her that's doing this...! It's the foal that's doing it!"
The doctor had then showed off the colt as they all saw that the foal was a unicorn and it's horn was actually glowing with an icy blue aura. With It's pearly white coat and it's ice blue mane and tail, it snapped It's baby blue eyes open and began to cry as the blue lightning became more fierce. The lightning suddenly blew the machines apart, it singed holes in the walls and almost struck the doctors and nurse, the newly made mother looked up in shock as the air was becoming more heavy and dense.
"Oh my goodness...! Is my foal really doing this?!"She called out.
Suddenly the foal's horn stopped glowing and all activity stopped as the little foal looked to It's new mother and slowly stopped crying. The air suddenly felt lighter and breathable once more as the baby started to coo at it's mom. The doctors and nurse looked around as they looked at each other before looking back at the foal, they let out a sigh and looked to the small foal as they professionally inspect it.
"Well doctor...? Is it over...?" The voice suddenly questioned.
"Yes... And... It's a healthy unicorn colt...!" Doctor Hoover said as he lowered his white mouth masked and smiled.
"Well done doctors and nurses, may I please speak with all three of you when your finished there?" The voice asked in a very gentle tone.
"Of course your majesty, It will only take a minute." Doctor Hoover said as they turned back to Golden Heart who was breathing heavily from giving birth.
"Well Miss Golden Heart, I would like to introduce you to your new son...!" The nurse said with a smile as she took up the foal and carried it over to the new mother.
"Oh... I have a son... Oh thank Celestia... Please... Can I hold my son?" Golden Heart asked with a weak smile.
"Of course you can Miss Golden Heart, you are now a mother."Nurse Red Cross said as she gently gave the foal to it's new mother.
"Oh my goodness, he's so beautiful... Oh my little colt...!"Golden Heart said as she brushed the small patch of light blue hair on it's head.
The foal suddenly cooed as it turned it's head and smiled while letting out a giggle as it looked upon it's mother with happiness and love, Golden Heart let out a soft chuckle as she then snuggled with her new born colt and went to sleep with the colt in her arms.
The doctors and the nurse all let out a sigh of relief as they watched the mare sleeping with her new son, the nurse smiled as she calmly walked over to Golden Heart and tucked her in with her colt. With that business done, they all rose their heads and looked towards the room where the voice was coming from and let out another sigh as they walked out of the room to give the new mother some peace and quiet.
The three of them exited into the hospital hall way and quickly turned to a room that was right next to the delivery room. They quietly entered and found themselves in a room that barely had any light. They looked around and widened their eyes as they saw none other than their mighty Alicorn ruler princess Celestia, watching the mare sleep with her colt through a two way mirror.
Her light color rainbow mane and tail flowed in the wind, her coat was as pearly white as the colt itself as she turned to see the doctors and the nurse watching her. Her magenta eyes were now fixed on them as she walked towards them. Her golden attire of a golden crown and necklace with purple gems in them and golden horse shoes seemed to gleam in the dim lights with each step, her cutie mark of the sun symbolized her as the bringer of the sun as they all bowed to her.
"It's an honor to see you princess Celestia...!"Doctor Hoover said as they were then given the sign to rise.
"It is good to see you as well doctor, I suppose you wanted to know why I am here?"Celestia guessed as she turned back to the mother and colt.
"Well... Yes your majesty, you must have your reasons I suppose, but tell me... What brings you here princess?" Doctor Hoover asked.
"I have come... To see that little colt come into this world,"Celestia said as she narrowed her sights to the colt.
"But... Why your majesty?" Nurse Red Cross asked.
"Golden Heart, she... Was married to captain Mega Weight, one of the best royal guards I have ever had under my command, his power was unmatched to all others... Even myself, and that colt... That is his son,"Celestia explained in a serious tone much to the groups surprise.
"Wait...! That is the son of the mighty Mega Weight?!"Light Well exclaimed.
"Yes... And after what that colt just did to that entire room, I believe that colt... If given all the proper training and teachings, this colt could grow to do extraordinary things, his magic... It's density even already surpasses that of his father,"Celestia said as she let out a heavy sigh," But for now I will have to be patient and let him grow before we know for sure..."
"What do you wish for us to do in the mean time princess?" Doctor Hoover asked.
"Do your regular procedure for him and send him home with his mother, when he is of age, I will personally over look the education he is in and watch over his progress,"Celestia explained as she turned back to them," Now then... I must be going now, take special care of that colt."
"Yes your majesty..."They all said as they bowed to her again.
With that the princess made her horn glow a bright gold color as a white orb formed around her, and in a flash of bright light... She was gone. The doctors and nurse all let out a sigh as they first looked to each other and then looked to the colt in Golden Hearts arms with astonishment, smiles, and above all... respect. They knew that what Golden Heart was holding may very well be something very special.
It was three days since the unicorn mare known as Golden Heart had given birth to her new born colt, for the pass few days she rested in a hospital bed while the doctors of the hospital were doing regular procedures and tests on the colt. She was ambitious and was dying to see her foal again, after what he did on the night he was born, she couldn't help but smile and think of how special she could tell that he was, he reminded her of his father.
It was the afternoon and Golden Heart had just gotten out of bed thanks to a nurse, she was a little tired, but was more than willing to get out of bed if it meant she could see her son again. She let out a sigh as she put her old brown cloak back on and followed the nurse out of her room, they then began happily walking through the hall way with smiles on their faces before Golden decided to start up a conversation.
"So... How has my son been under your care?"Golden asked with curiosity.
"Well... After what happened that night he was born, we decided to not just do regular procedures, but we also did a few special tests on him to test his magical abilities"The nurse explained as they passed a few doctors that had burn marks on their coats.
"Oh...? So... How did he do?"Golden Heart questioned.
"I...would rather wait and let doctor Hoover tell you himself,"The nurse said as they all came to a baby nursery room,"Much had happened during the tests..."
The nurse pulled out a key and unlocked the door, she then opened it and led Golden Heart into the nursery where many new born fillies and colts were in small cradles sleeping to their hearts content, all of them... Except one little colt. They walked through the lines of foals until they easily managed to pick out the small white colt with the ice blue mane and tail who was currently sucking on a binkie while half way out of his blue blanket.
Golden Heart let out an excited gasp as she quickly rushed over to her colt, the colt saw his mother coming and smiled while letting out a small giggle as Golden Heart leaned over the colt's cradle and laid her blue eyes upon her son.
"Hey their little one. I'm your mommy, you remember me?"She cooed as she tickled the colts belly.
The colt let out a few giggles as it wiggled it's arms and legs with joy, he was then picked up by Golden Heart and cradled in her arms as it looked into her eyes and smiled. Golden Heart felt her heart melt with great warmth as she looked upon her son.
"He's so adorable, he looks like his father, but he has my eyes..."Golden Heart said in a very soft voice.
"Yes... And he is very special too, I heard that you are the wife of captain Mega Weight, right?"The nurse said.
"Yes... I... Was his wife but... Well. I'll always be his wife, plain and simple."Golden Heart said as a stray tear rolled down her cheek.
"Oh... I forgot about what happened, I am so sorry about that Golden..."The nurse said with guilt before seeing Golden Heart stand tall.
"It's fine... He was a good husband and a great stallion, and now I have a reason to keep going for him, I have a son now."Golden Heart said as she turned and smiled at the nurse.
The nurse then gave her a warm smile as well as they both looked to the new born colt as he continued to smile at them as well, it was then that their moment was interrupted by none other than the brown stallion Doctor Hoover entered the room and saw the two mares. He cleared his throat to get their attention and smiled as they looked to him while the unicorn cradled her son once more.
"Miss Golden Heart, I'm glad I found you, may I please speak with you? It concerns your so."The Doctor said as he gave her the sign to follow him.
She let out a worried sigh as she then followed the doctor with her baby in her fore arm, the doctor held the door for her as he then walked with her down the hall way. She felt nervous for her child as she kept her sights focused on her foal as he reached for her and giggled, the doctor looked back to see the worry on her face and smiled as they were nearing their destination.
It was then began to pass a large room, but as they passed it, the smell of something burnt and charred reached Golden Hearts nose and she cringed her muzzle at the burning stench. She looked around for the source and noticed the window to the room had been completely blown out and charred by some sort of incredible force.
She stopped and looked through the window and was shocked to see many strange machines that were burnt and destroyed as if some pony had taken a meteor or some sort of bomb to the entire room. The ceiling was burned completely and electricity trickled from the lights and the destroyed machines, the air felt heavy and dense with a strange feeling of magic, it made Golden Heart feel uneasy.
"Ma'am...! This is the room!"The doctor called out from the entrance of a room that was only a few rooms away.
"Doctor...? What in the name of Celestia happened in there?"Golden Heart asked as she then walked over to the doctor while the colt rested in her fore arm.
"That...is part of the reason that I need to speak with you..."The doctor said as he held the door open for the mare.
She now felt really uneasy as she slowly entered the room while the doctor closed the door behind them, she quietly took up a seat in front of a desk and sat their as she looked to her foal with uncertainty and worry. It was then that the doctor had passed her and took up his seat behind the desk and removed his stethoscope before letting out a heavy sigh.
"Ms Golden Heart, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to introduce myself before. But my name is doctor Hoover, and thanks to a special some pony I have been signed on to be you and your colts family doctor."He said with a small smile as he began fumbling with a few papers.
"It's a pleasure to meet you doctor Hoover, and thank you so much for helping me bring my little colt into his new world."She said with a small smile.
"The pleasure is all mine Madam, I never thought I would meet the Mrs of the mighty Mega Weight!"The doctor said in a more bright voice as he shuffled papers.
"Oh... Yes of course,"Golden said as she did her best to hold onto a smile at the memory of her husband,"I apologize for this, but may I please ask what is going on here?"
The doctor looked up from the papers he was shuffling and looked upon a very worried mother as he then pulled out a paper and gave it to her.
"Ms Golden Heart... I would like to first tell you about what you saw in that room that appeared to be completely destroyed,"The stallion said with a serious look,"That room was where we take the new born unicorns to be tested in magical capabilities, as well as density and limits, last night... We were doing our final tests on your son."
"Okay... So... Are you saying my son did all that?!"She questioned with disbelief.
"Well... Yes... The magic the machines were picking up immense readings of magic from him... It was... Incredible,"The doctor said as he felt himself starting to sweat from the event last night,"The readings became so high off the scale that... It fried all the machines and the excess magic went every where, the density of the magic was almost fatal to all that got near it, those papers you now have show the last readings the machines were able to take before they were fried."
Golden Heart gave a small nod while the colt let out a few coo's, she looked at the papers and was astonished as her eyes widened, the doctor nodded as if he was agreeing with her shock as she then handed the papers back to him and looked to her son.
"Are these readings really correct?!"She asked with a surprised look.
"Yes... I even dared to pull out the old readings a doctor had taken when Mega Weight was born, and well... When I compared them..."Doctor Hoover said as he pulled out an old looking paper that had the name Mega Weight on it and showed both papers to her,"As you can see... Your son's readings are even higher than Mega's."
"Oh my gosh...!"Golden Heart explained while the foal giggled.
"Ms Golden Heart, I'm going to recommend that he gets the absolute best schooling we can find for him, there is no telling what he could do with the proper schooling, once he is of age, I would recommend Princess Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns, It's the perfect place for him to start out."Doctor Hoover said as a smile grew on Golden Hearts face.
"Of course doctor Hoover, and once again, thank you so much...!"Golden Heart said as she rose from her chair and started to leave.
"It was my pleasure Ms Golden Heart, you have a nice day and I wish the best of luck for you and your son."The doctor said as Golden Heart quietly left the room.
She walked with her son happily as she quickly made it to the secretary counter and finally signed herself and her son out of the hospital. Finally the new mother made it out of the hospital and was departing for her home with her foal, as she walked out she was looking at her foal with hope but also sadness.
"My goodness, I wish your daddy could be here to see you, he would have been so happy to see you."She said in a solemn tone.
It was then that Golden Heart smiled with hope for her child as it suddenly reached out and let out a giggle as it managed to get it's small hooves onto it's mothers muzzle. She let out warm hearted giggles at the colt's curiosity as she walked through Canterlot streets with the foal in her arms.
It was then that after a few long minutes she was almost home as she walked passed two concession stands, but in the process she had failed to notice that the stands were now floating and spinning in a perfect circle. She heard her foal giggling, but she though it was only him getting excited about being carried home.
It was then that two stallions, one earth pony and on Pegasus came out of their homes and were confused by the fact that their stands were missing.
"Hey...! where the hay are our stands?!" The Pegasus screamed.
"I don't know, they were right here!" the Earth pony yelled.
Suddenly a small piece of wood landed on the Earth pony's nose, he then looked up only to be shock to see both stands floating in mid air while being surrounded in an ice blue aura, their eyes widened.
"WHAT THE BUCK IS THIS!" Both stallions screamed.
"WHOEVER IS DOING THIS! PUT OUR STANDS DOWN NOW! WE NEED THEM TO MAKE A LIVING!" the Pegasus roared.
It was then that Golden Heart turned to see the problem and was confused for a moment when she saw the two stallions were screaming about their stands floating, then it hit her as she noticed the magical aura it was in. She turned and gasp as she saw her son's horn glowing, and the fact that the foal was giggling at the whole thing made it even more obvious, she now knew that it was the colt that was doing this. she panicked as she quickly put a hoof on the babies horn to shut off the magic, she then looked to see the two stands instantly fall and get smashed to pieces on impact, as the stallions looked in shock at their ruined stands. The stallions then turned to see Golden Heart and widened their eyes as they saw that her and the colt were the only unicorns around, the unicorn mare then made a run for it.
"HEY...! STOP RIGHT THERE...!"The Pegasus shouted as him and the Earth pony took off after her.
Golden Heart was now in a panic as she did her best to lose her pursuers, scared that they might hurt her or the baby she knew she had to think of something, and that's when her self defense that she learned from her husband kicked in.
She quickly saw a several loose pieces on the smooth stone road and quickly made her horn glow dark blue, suddenly the whole road quaked as she leaped over the loose part of the road and let out a small grunt as she worked her magic. Suddenly the road exploded and a massive wall of stone shot up from the road right behind her with a sharp crack. The stallions gasp and tried to stop, but they were running too fast with too much momentum. They braced themselves as they slammed hard against the wall of stone and slowly slid off it, they were left in a daze as Golden Heart made a great dash for home.
Finally after a few more solid minutes of running, both the mare and the foal finally made it to their small home at the edge of Canterlot walls, she slowed down and checked on her colt and smiled to see her happy little colt giggling about the whole ordeal. She let out a sigh of relief as she made her way inside her house and she put her son down so he could crawl around and explore his new environment, at the same time the mother laid on the couch and watched her son with amazement and hope while catching her breath.
"Oh...your a gifted one aren't you...??she said with a smile while reaching to pick him up and place him next to her on the couch.
She smiled and nuzzled him while he once again gripped her muzzle and held her there while he giggled, she then felt him tightening his grip and was surprised by how strong of a grip he had on her.
"Your strong too, just like your daddy was..." she said as she brushed a hoof through his icy blue mane.
She then suddenly felt an idea hit her as she looked to a picture that had her and a stallion that looked like the colt, only much more burly and had emerald green eyes, she smiled as a name began to form in her mind. She then smiled as a tear rolled down her cheek and let out a sigh.
"I got it, I have the perfect name for you... Heavy Weight..."She said as she cradled her son.
The baby giggled and shook her muzzle appearing to like the name, it melted her heart to see the baby agreeing with her as another tear fell from her cheek.
It was a beautiful dawn for the city of Canterlot, Celestia's sun was now rising over the mountain and with it the city was starting to stir with slow activity as ponies emerged from their homes to start the new day. For many ponies it was slow and a challenge, but for one little colt, getting ready for his first day at Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns was as easy as breathing for him.
The sun continued to rise over the city as it finally hit a small house on the edge of the city, as the suns rays hit the small window, the window immediately swung open and the head of a white colt with an icy blue mane looked out it with a gleaming smile of excitement. He was excited and smiling to the whole city as he pulled his head in, jumped away from the window and exited his small room.
"Today's the day!"The colt yelled in excitement.
He quickly rushed down the stairs of his small house completely full of energy as he stopped in the middle of his living room and began to pretend he was punching like a boxer at the air to pump himself up. He then looked to his coffee table and brown couch and suddenly made his horn glow icy blue, with barely a struggle he picked up both the table and the couch and began lifting them up and down like a pair of dumbbells while giggling to himself in fascination about magic. He then began to get impatient about being kept waiting when this was his first day of school, he gently lowered the couch and table back where they were and took off again.
He ran through his kitchen and looked around before rushing off from the kitchen and coming to a door and slowly opening it. He swung open the door and watched as he saw none other than the unicorn mare Golden Heart sleeping soundly, the colt didn't like that she was sleeping on his first day of school and smirked as he then attacked the bed. He made a big leap and landed on the bed as he walked around it and began jumping on it to wake the mare up.
"Mom...! Mom! Mom! Mom!"He called out as the mare suddenly shot up from bed and looked around to see the colt smiling at her."Come on mom wake up! Today's the day!"
"*yawn*... Alright Heavy Weight calm down, we still have thirty minutes before you need to go, just...calm...down,"Golden Heart said with a small smile as she slowly got out of bed.
"Oh come on mom...!"The colt known as Heavy Weight whined as Golden slowly got out of bed.
"My goodness Heavy, you are ready to go aren't you? I suppose I should expect that from you, you're already becoming your father,"Golden Heart said as she got to her hooves and slowly walked with Heavy out to the kitchen.
Heavy quickly hopped up to the kitchen table and sat in his seat as Golden Heart made her way into the kitchen and levitated a box of cereal and some milk out and placed them on the table. She then levitated two bowls and two spoons out and placed each pair at the table, she then levitated the box of cereal and dumped a decent amount in each bowl before following it up with a decent amount of milk.
With their bowls of Cereal made she quickly put the box of cereal and the milk away and sat next to Heavy wait at the table as they then began to enjoy their breakfast. Heavy Weight quickly began wolfing down his cereal while Golden Heart ate hers slowly and with great manners, she turned and noticed Heavy eating fast and getting milk all over his face.
"Heavy... Slow down and wipe your mouth off, you would want to make a good impression by showing manners and discipline to your teachers, you are in a very advanced class for your age and they will be expecting quite a bit out of you,"Golden Heart explained as she levitated a napkin to her son.
Heavy stopped eating his cereal and looked to his mother with a mouthful of cereal, it made Golden Heart giggle as he levitated the napkin himself and wiped the milk from his mouth. He then breathed through his nose as he barely managed to gulp down his cereal and smile at his mother with embarrassment.
"Sorry mom, I'm just so excited to be going to Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns, and I'm going to be in Mrs Cloversteps class, they say that she is the best unicorn teacher out there!"Heavy said excitedly as he did his best to eat slowly.
"Well It doesn't surprise me, after the high scores you made on those tests it doesn't surprise me, and it's very rare that unicorns your age can already perform spells such as levitation, not to mention you already know how to create magical shields,"Golden Heart explained as she ate another spoonful of cereal.
"Yeah, but I only managed to do it because of you,"Heavy pointed out as his mother let out a chuckle.
"Heavy, I only gave you some guidance towards the dreams, It was the fiery will that you inherited from your father that helped you learn these spells, and there are so many more things you can learn,"Golden Heart explained as a more important question struck Heavy.
"Hey mom...? What was dad like? Did he ever go to the school?"Heavy suddenly asked to Golden Hearts surprise.
"Well... Yes he did go to the School For Gifted Unicorns, It was actually where we first met, he was very excitable and he stopped at nothing to be the best unicorn he could be,"Golden Heart said as they both looked to a picture that had Golden heart and a burly stallion that looked like Heavy Weight with green eyes."He was determined, it didn't take him long before he became the toughest unicorn any pony had ever seen, even Celestia herself was impressed and took him under her wing, after a while he became the greatest captain of the royal guard, and that was around the time when we had come to love each other."
"Wow... Why isn't he around any more?"Heavy asked with pleading eyes.
"Well... He died a hero Heavy, he gave his life to save the princess from a crazed assassin, he fought gallantly and defeated the assassin, but he lost his life in the process, but I'm sure if he was here, he would be so proud of you,"Golden Heart said as she patted Heavy's back while he finished up his cereal.
"I hope that one day I can be strong like him?"Heavy asked as he levitated his bowl to the sink.
"I have no doubt that you will son,"Golden Heart said as she then noticed the clock."My goodness! It's time for school already!"
Heavy quickly looked at the clock and saw that she was right as he let out a scared gasp and quickly bolted off the chair, he raced to the door and picked up his back pack and was about to leave before being called.
"Heavy Weight...! Have a good first day at school! When you get back, we'll do a little training of our own,"She said as Heavy opened the door to leave.
"Okay mom...! I love you mom!"Heavy called out as he left the house.
"I love you too sweet heart..."Golden Heart said as she walked over to the door and waved to him.
When Heavy Weight was off and out of sight she went back inside and had nothing but hopeful thoughts for her son, she turned to the same picture her and Heavy were staring at and smiled as a tear streamed down her face.
"He's on his way now Mega, oh I wish you could be here to see him go off to school,"Golden Heart said in a solemn tone.
In that moment she began to feel under the weather, sweat began to form over her fore head and she began to feel light headed. Not wanting to worry, she walked back to her room to lay down and suddenly began to cough violently and uncontrollably, she had finally managed to make it to her room and laid down in her bed while still coughing until finally falling asleep.
meanwhile Heavy weight was running down the streets of Canterlot with the biggest smile on his face, as he ran towards the Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns he couldn't help but notice a familiar sight that he had seen before. He smiled as he saw the two old looking concession stands that gave out foods such as apples and cotton candy that he always liked to mess around with. As Heavy took noticed, his smile became mischievous on his face for he had something devious planned, he walked over to a cart and hid under a small cart and began laughing as he made his horn glow.
He then effortlessly began to levitate both stands with his magic, He lifted the stands a good sixty feet and spun them around before suddenly making the stands freeze and chose to hold them there until just the right time. He had time to stop laughing before two familiar stallions came out of their homes in matching blue robes to discover their stands were missing.
"What the hay happened out here!"yelled the Earth pony.
"I don't know, but the real question is where the hay is our stands?" replied the Pegasus.
"I don't know, but we need to find them, their the only way that we can make any money!"yelled the Earth pony.
The two stallions continued arguing with each other while Heavy Weight giggled to himself about his little prank. After a good ten minutes of watching to the two stallions fight about their missing stands Heavy Weight finally decided to let down the stands, Heavy Weight giggled as he used the magic to slowly shake the stands right over the heads of the clueless stallions. As the stands shook like leaves, splinter of wood came off from one of the stands and hit one of the stallions on the nose and the head, this got their attention as they looked down at the wood splinters that fell. They then slowly brought their heads up slowly and looked at each other with looks that said "OH CRAP!"
Both stallions looked up instantly to see the stands finally falling down upon them and demolish in a big crash, a few moments later the stallions finally emerged from the two stand wreck with shocked looks on their faces beholding their destroyed business's.
"YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! NOT THIS NONSENSE AGAIN!"Screamed the Pegasus.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!" shouted the Earth pony.
they then looked at each other as if they were blaming each other for this mess, with both glaring one another down, they were about fight until the sound of a loud high pitch laughter was heard. Heavy Weight was still under the cart laughing his head off at the two stallions. He got so caught up in his fun he didn't notice the two stallions lifting up the cart and revealing Heavy Weight as he continued to laugh at them. It was not until he saw two huge shadows over him, and when he then noticed the cart was not over him any more that he realized that he has been caught. He gulped as he slowly began to turn his head to see two angry stallions who were now staring Heavy weight down. Finally one of the Stallions finally spoke while seething with anger.
"YOU...! HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO OUR STANDS YOU LITTLE BRAT! AT LEAST WE FINALLY CAUGHT YOU THIS TIME!" The Pegasus screamed in the colts face.
the Earth pony was next to speak up and he spoke with a more calm voice, but was clearly was angry as well.
"Do you have any idea how long it takes to rebuild those stands?!" he spoke.
Heavy weight managed to brush aside his fear of the stallions as a smirk grew on his face and he bravely replied to them as his fear was completely cast to the wind.
" No, but good luck with the repairs,"Heavy said before bursting into a fit of laughter.
A moment of silenced took hold with Heavy Weights choice of words, then suddenly the both stallions yelled.
"THAT DOES IT!"Both stallions screamed.
They then snorted as they both suddenly leaped into the air to make a grab for Heavy, but before they could capture him. His exercise's and practice kicked in and with a brave and serious look and deep breath. He lit up his horn and manage to throw up a big icy blue shield around himself. The stallions once again found themselves caught in their momentum and slammed face first against Heavy's shield. Heavy smirked as he then made his horn glow brighter and let out a big grunt of force. Suddenly making the shield rapidly expand like a blown up balloon.
The shield had expanded so quickly that it blew the stallions away and made them crash right back into the ruin pile that was once their stands. The stallions slowly rose out of the pile in a daze before giving up and laying down on their piles of wood while Heavy just stood their laughing
"Ha Ha! Is that all you two got?! you stallions are weak!" he yelled before turning around and left with a proud smile, leaving the two stallions dazed and overwhelmed.
The rest of Heavy Weights trip went on uneventful until he saw it, Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns, he lit up as he rushed to the entrance and smiled brightly at the building.
"FINALLY!" he said looking at the entrance.
Now that he was here, he began to feel a little bit nervous knowing that this school was the best and he would have to be the best if he wanted to succeed, he let out a deep sigh as he remembered what he was aiming to be. He remembered his mom and his dad and knew that he wanted to make them proud, he finally opened his eyes and stared down the school with a sudden fire of determination in his stomach.
"Alright Heavy Weight. All of mom's early teachings prepared you for this, dad is up there watching you and you don't want to let him down... Lets do this!"Heavy Weight said to himself as he then ventured into the school.
With one last deep sigh, Heavy Weight levitated the doors to the Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns open and casually walked through them and closing the doors behind him. It was then that he walked through another set of doors and found himself suddenly surrounded by unicorns of all shapes, sizes, and age. His eyes trailed to all the unicorns as well to the long hall ways that were aligned with metal lockers as far as his eyes could see, he then noticed that some unicorns were looking at him.
He turned away from the peering eyes of other unicorns as he began to walk down the hall ways, but he then hit a slight bump in the road, he didn't know where to go to get to his class. He quickly thought about it and quickly decided to go to the school office to ask for direction, he didn't have to look far however as he looked to his left and saw that the room he was seeing was indeed the school's office.
Noticing that more unicorns were looking at him with strange looks, he quickly turned away and ignored them as he swung open the door with his magic and went inside. He looked around to see a gray room with a shaggy carpet under him, he looked around but he saw almost no pony of interest, but he was then relieved as he saw a unicorn mare secretary filing papers in a secretary outfit. Heavy let out a sigh of relief and quickly approached the secretary's desk and cleared his throat to get her attention.
"Ahem... Excuse me Ms but... I'm kind of lost here."Heavy asked as he noticed the secretary looked up and had to lean over to look down to see him.
"Oh...! I'm sorry about that, I didn't see you down there, what's your name little colt?"The secretary asked with a soft smile.
"My name is Heavy Weight, And I'm kind of lost here, do you know where Mrs Cloverstep's class is?"Heavy asked as the mare suddenly widened her eyes with shock.
"Well... I do know where the room is, but are you sure you don't have the wrong room? you're awfully young to be taking such an advance class."The secretary said while Heavy looked at her as if he felt insulted.
"Yes...! I'm in Mrs Cloverstep's class, my mom said so!"Heavy said fiercely.
"Oh...! Okay take an easy now, just let me get out a file and check okay?"The secretary suggested as she magically pulled out some files from a cabinet.
She read the file name and was indeed marked Heavy Weight, she gave the colt one glimpse before turning back to the file and opening it. She looked upon a few papers including a small photo of Heavy Weight, as she began reading the file she picked up on his parents, she read that Golden Heart was indeed his mother, but her eyes then went wide as she then read who his father was. Trying to contain herself as she continued on before seeing that Heavy was indeed assigned to Mrs Cloverstep's class in room 102. She finally rose her head with a surprised look on her face as she saw the colt getting impatient as he tapped his hoof on the ground.
"I... See... Well now... It's a pleasure to have the son of Mega Weight attending this school, and now It doesn't surprise me that you're in her class, these scores are impressive."The secretary said as she set the file down.
"I told you so, so can you tell me where Mrs Cloverstep's room is?"Heavy asked again.
"Of course, It is room 102 down the hall and at the very end of the next hall on your left."The secretary said with a nervous smile knowing that she was talking to the son of Mega Weight.
"Thanks!"Heavy said as he quickly rushed out of the office, leaving an overwhelmed secretary to collect her thoughts.
Heavy now found himself happy and excited as he trotted down the hall way ready to take on his first day of school, he now didn't care for the ponies that looked at him any more, he wasn't going to let anything stop at this rate. Suddenly he broke into a small jog thinking that it would satisfy his excitement, but it proved to be a bad idea as he turned the corner and got the surprise of his life.
As he rounded the corner into a new hall way, he suddenly slammed right into another incoming unicorn, they both smashed face first into each other before the force of the slam knocked both of them onto their flanks. Heavy quickly got to his hooves and shook off the slight daze he felt as he looked to see an older colt with a three shaded mane and tail of blue, a white coat and the cutie mark of a blue shield with a purple star slowly get to his hooves as well. He then shook of his daze as they both looked at each other and scratched at their manes with embarrassment.
"Uh...sorry about that kid, I wasn't looking where I was going."The colt apologized to Heavy.
"That's alright, I wasn't exactly being careful either, gee... You never know who you're going to run into around the corner."Heavy said as they both then shared a laugh at his joke.
"Ha ha! You're pretty funny there kid, sorry about all this, my name is Shining Armor, what's yours?"Shining said as the colts came closer to each other.
"My name is Heavy Weight, It's nice to meet you."Heavy said as they shared a hoof bump.
"So... What were you in a hurry for?"The colt known as Shining Armor asked.
"It's my first day here in the School For Gifted Unicorns, I'm in Mrs Cloverstep's class and I can't be late."Heavy explained quickly as Shining became a bit surprised by Heavy's answer.
"Whoa...! Are you serious?! Aren't you a little young to be in a class that advanced, even I'm not in that class."Shining Armor said with shock.
"Well... Maybe, but I'm in it, and I'm going to try my hardest to become the greatest unicorn ever! Just like my dad!"Heavy said with excitement.
"Oh yeah, Who's your dad?"Shining asked.
"His name was Mega Weight, my mother told me that he was a great unicorn that was said to be the greatest and most powerful captain of the royal guard princess Celestia has ever had."Heavy explained while filling himself with more excitement at his father's story.
"Whoa...! That's pretty awesome kid, I'm actually hoping to become a captain of the royal guard one of these days."Shining said with fascination at Heavy's story.
"Oh... Well that's pretty cool, I wish you luck on your dream."Heavy said.
"Shining...! Will you please slow down?!"A small voice suddenly called out.
Both colts turned to see another separate hall way as a filly that looked about a year younger than Heavy suddenly came around the corner and gave Shining Armor a pouty look as she slowly approached him. Heavy suddenly felt a small warm feeling inside him as he watched her approached them, her lavender purple coat was shiny and cute, It matched the dark purple mane and tail with the light purple streak in it. Her purple eyes sparkled and glittered as her pouty look suddenly changed to a surprised and curious look as she looked upon Heavy.
"Sorry about that sis, I got a little excited and well... I payed the price for that."Shining said with embarrassment.
"Really...? Oh I'm sorry about that."The filly said gesturing to Heavy.
"It's...fine really, there's... no harm done,"Heavy said with a nervous chuckle.
"Oh... Okay then, I'm Twilight Sparkle... What's yours?"The filly now known as Twilight Sparkle asked.
"It's...Heavy Weight,"Heavy replied as he tried to hide his embarrassed expression on his face with his mane.
"It's very nice to meet you Heavy Weight, are you going to be in my class?"Twilight asked once more.
"Um... No not really."Heavy said as he finally turned back to look at her.
"Twily, he's actually going into Mrs Cloverstep's class, can you believe that?"Shining Armor said as shock stretched over Twilight's face.
"Wow...! You must be really good with magic, I hope I can get into that class one day."Twilight said while Heavy chuckled nervously with a slight blush.
"Maybe one day you will, but for now I gotta get you to your kindergarten class."Shining Armor said as he gestured Twilight to follow him.
"Aww... Okay then..."Twilight said in a grouchy tone as she began following Shining away.
"We'll see you around though Heavy, you look like a pretty cool kid,"Shining said as they left.
"Bye Heavy..."Twilight said as she waved to the colt while following her brother off to class.
Heavy just smiled at the compliment as he watched the brother and sister walk off to class, he especially seemed to like Twilight as he smiled at her before she suddenly turned around and smiled right back at him.
"Bye Heavy! I hope we can hang out sometime!"Twilight called out again as they disappeared around a corner.
Heavy just waved them off as he felt even better about this place knowing that he may now have some friends as he turned around and trotted happily down the hall. It didn't take him long to finally reach the room he was looking for, he stopped right in front of the door that said Mrs Cloverstep's advance magic class room 102, he felt the anticipation building as Heavy began to pump himself up for the moment.
"Alright Heavy, this is it, time to show every pony what you can do...!"Heavy said proudly as he opened the door and ventured inside.
The minute he stepped into his new class he was greeted by the sight of thirty different unicorn fillies and colts that were almost twice his age staring at him, they did their best to suppress the urge to laugh and talk about him at him. After an awkward moment of silence, a unicorn mare that looked about forty who had a dark red coat, a jet black mane and tail, blue eyes and had a cutie mark of a four leaf clover with magic dust around it approached the young colt.
"Hello there little colt, is there something I can help you with?"The mare asked with confusion.
"You must be Mrs Cloverstep, my name is Heavy Weight, and I'm suppose to be in your class,"Heavy said standing tall and brave.
"Heavy Weight...? Hmm... Give me a moment to make sure, It's just I've never had a student so young be able to attend my class before,"The mare now realized as Cloverstep said with a chuckle while Heavy just rolled his eyes.
Cloverstep cleared her throat as she made her horn glow dark red and made a list of names appear, she then began to skim down of list of names until she did come to the name that did in fact say Heavy Weight. She raised an eye brow as she then transformed the list to the same file the secretary had and read a little about Heavy to verify it for herself, and when she saw who the parents were, she then understood completely.
"Oh my goodness...! your Golden Heart and Mega Weight's son!"Cloverstep said with a smile.
"huh...? I could understand how you know my dad, but how do you know my mom?"Heavy asked as Cloverstep chuckled.
"Well... I knew your mom and dad when they were young, they were both in this class when I was a young mare working as an assistant for the previous teacher of this class, they were quite gifted and I knew they had a thing for each other."Cloverstep explained as every pony including Heavy widened their eyes in astonishment."It is an honor to be teaching their son after all this time."
Heavy smiled as he then turned to face the class, they all looked upon him now with curiosity and fascination that they were now looking upon the son of the unicorn they have heard of in many tales when they were young. Suddenly the room erupted with questions, and Heavy was willing to answer every each one.
"So you are the son of the incredible Mega Weight?!"A filly called out.
"Yes...!"Heavy called out.
"Can you do any magic?"A colt asked from the front row.
"Yes..."Heavy replied once more.
"Prove it then!"A colt suddenly called out before chuckling at him.
Not liking to be called out, Heavy looked to the colt that called him out and saw a pitch black colt with a silver mane and tail, red eyes and the cutie mark of a black heart with a glowing red outline laughing at him from the back of the class. Heavy snorted at the colt not liking to be laughed at, but Cloverstep suddenly found a perfect chance to prove it for herself as she quietly levitated a sharp pencil and aimed it at Heavy.
"Oh Heavy...!"Cloverstep suddenly called out before suddenly flinging the pencil at high speeds towards Heavy Weight.
Heavy senses suddenly kicked in and turned an eye to the corner to see the pencil coming in fast, acting on instinct, he quickly lit up his horn and instantly threw up a bright and powerful blue shield that stopped the pencil cold in it's tracks. The crowd of students dropped their jaws and stared with astonishment as Heavy performed sharp focused and suddenly lit up the pencil with blue flames and fired it back, luckily Cloverstep managed to move her head at the last moment. The burning pencil just barely grazed by her cheek before suddenly sticking itself firmly against the wall as it disintegrated under the power of the blue flames, Cloverstep just let out a giggle while the class continued to stare with astonishment.
"Wow...! Very impressive, not only did you manage to make a shield in the blink of an eye, but you also managed to turn a defensive spell into a weapon as well, a combination of fire, magic shields and levitation, you definitely have your parent's magical talents in your blood."Cloverstep explained as the crowd of colts and fillies began to cheer except for the dark colt in the back.
"Thanks Mrs Cloverstep."Heavy said with a smile.
"No problem at all Mr Heavy Weight, I can tell that you may very well become my top student in this class, now you may take your seat in the front of the class so we can get started."Cloverstep chirped with excitement.
Heavy nodded and happily trotted to an empty seat in the front of the class and sat quietly as Cloverstep's lesson began, but at the same moment he was also becoming a target for a certain colt who didn't like how a colt half his age made him look like a fool.
For a few hours now Heavy Weight sat in the front of the class as students marveled at him with more questions than answers, he did his best to ignore the unwanted attention as he listened to the words of Mrs Cloverstep while also concentrating on the book he was reading, the book informed Heavy about the basics of magic defense and offense, this only intrigued him as he felt his mind thinking freely and putting details and dozens of potential spells together, not just ones that he reads, but some that were even made from his own mind.
"Alright class! Lets go over this again,"Cloverstep called out getting every pony's attention as she gestured to the chalk board."What are the two keys to creating the magical shield?"
"Concentration and imagination of the shield surrounding you!"Heavy called out with a raised hoof.
"That is correct Heavy Weight, concentration and imagination, and did you all know that with a strong imagination, you could open your mind to almost anything, but it is useless if your concentration is off."Mrs Cloverstep said gesturing to the chalk drawing of a unicorn using a magic shield.
"Even make others disappear!"Called out the dark colt from earlier.
"Perhaps... But making others disappear is a dark magic related spell Mr Dark Shine, and dark magic is illegal, I hope I will never see you toying with such magic,"Cloverstep said with slight irritation at the one known as Dark Shine.
Heavy Weight just rolled his eyes at the dark colts comments as he went back to drawing more spell like designs, he smiled as he then completed a page with a complete design of a unicorn glowing entirely rather than just it's horn. He smirked as he looked at the design with interest and was thinking of trying it at recess, he then trailed to the regular page in the book about the basic magical beam that is used in combat and defense.
He continued to smirk as he turned to a pencil on his desk and looked to see that no pony was watching, he then made his horn glow and suddenly blasted a small beam of blue magic with little effort, the minute the beam struck the pencil, it instantly turned to ash. Heavy felt proud, but he hated that he had to keep the beam to the bare minimum when he knew that it could be so much bigger, he let out a sigh as he turned back to his own pages as he was about to write some more before suddenly getting spooked by Mrs Cloverstep.
"Heavy Weight...?! Is there something you would like to share with us? A drawing perhaps?"Cloverstep said as she approached him and looked down at the drawing."What is this exactly?"
"It's something I'm making into a spell, you like it?"Heavy said as he slid the drawing towards the teacher.
Cloverstep took the drawing and looked at it as the entire class came forward for a closer look, the drawing struck Cloverstep with great interest, the unicorn glowing with power by the magic of it's horn, the power and speed that is granted when used correctly, and the concentration it requires. Cloverstep was thoroughly impressed, this was indeed creative and new, Heavy was proving to have an imaginative mind, she smiled with interest as she gave it back to him and chuckled.
"I see you are more than paying attention, concentration... Imagination... All of which can create many sorts of magic such as this,"Cloverstep said in a serious tone as her teaching became interesting and full of fire."For thousands of years unicorns have been creating spells that further pierced the secrets of Equestria, Star Swirl The Bearded was one of the greatest creators of magic, hundreds of spells were created by him, and he has dug further into Equestria than any pony else has ever seen."
"So what you're saying is...that there could possibly be no limits of what magic we can do?!"A filly called out.
"Yes my dear... In the end... There can be no limit to what you can do, and Heavy Weight's design for yet another spell has further proved it, there can be no limit to what you can do,"Cloverstep explained as she smiled proudly at Heavy."This particular design, what does it do Heavy?"
"It strengthens the entire body of a unicorn, making them stronger, faster and even makes them see and hear better, but you have to concentrate real hard on your body and make the magic flow through your body the same way that it does in your horn,"Heavy explained as he focused on his paper.
"You hope to be a fighter just like Mega Weight I assume,"Cloverstep guessed gaining a nod from Heavy."Then I wish you great luck on this journey, with a dream like that... I have no doubt that your iron will shall strengthen your magic with no end."
Heavy smiled as Cloverstep turned back and decided to focus back on the subject at hoof, but before she could, the door swung open and a unicorn stallion entered the room, he looked around and saw Cloverstep.
"Excuse me Mrs Cloverstep, could I speak with you for a bit?"The stallion asked.
"Um... Of course Mr Magist."Cloverstep said before putting her chalk down and stepping out with the stallion.
As Mrs Cloverstep stepped out and closed the door behind her, the room suddenly filled with gossip and many conversations, Heavy ignored them as he went back to drawing yet another spell, but little did he know of what was coming. In the back of the room, the colt known as Dark Shine was staring Heavy down like a hawk, he didn't like how a colt half his age made him look like a fool and show him off in front of the whole class. The hatred he now had for Heavy was boiling within him as he gritted his teeth and finally decided to get up and show Heavy who was boss.
The minute he rose from his seat, the other students immediately went silent and looked to him as he started walking through the rows of seats, his dark stare made all the colts and fillies tremble like leaves with each step he took. His red eyes were fixed upon Heavy, his pride feeling slightly bruised by Heavy showing him off earlier, It ate away at him as he approached Heavy as his shadow was over him, but Heavy didn't even bother to look up, he knew who it was, and he was not afraid.
"So...squirt, do you think just because you can do a few tricks means you can suddenly become the boss around here?"Dark questioned without getting an answer from an annoyed Heavy Weight."Hey squirt! I'm talking to you!"
Heavy let out an annoyed sigh as he stared right into the eyes of the angry colt and stretched out a smirk.
"No... I don't think that, but obviously your stupid enough to think that a few harsh words makes you the boss, which it doesn't,"Heavy boldly said as the class let out a big gasp.
"Oh really...?! Listen here little squirt, I run this school, I'm the best unicorn in this entire school, and I will not let some special little colt stand in my way, so do yourself a favor and quit while your ahead or else!"Dark warned as he got right in Heavy's face.
"I'm not afraid of you! You think cause your special like every pony else in here means that you can act any way you want, well just so you know, you don't look all that special to me, you are nothing!"Heavy said as shock and fury stretched across his face.
"Do you have a death wish or something?! Because you are asking for it!"Dark yelled as his horn lit up red and he raised a hoof to Heavy.
"Please... Whatever you want to do to me is nothing compared to what I'm going to do to you if you even think about doing that!"Heavy growled as his horn lit up and they both began butting heads.
It was then that their moment was ruined by the sound of a magically turning door knob, Dark Shine looked back and let out a fearful gasp as he scrambled to get back to his seat, he even tripped and landed on his face before frantically making it back to his seat. Heavy giggled at how frantic and fearful Dark was and stuck his tongue out at the dark colt as the class stared at him with amazement at his bravery in dealing with a bully.
"Coward..."Heavy said to himself as Mrs Cloverstep suddenly came back into the class.
"Alright class! I have returned, and unfortunately because of that interruption we are out of time and we must report to lunch. There will be no home work tonight so enjoy your free night!"Cloverstep said with a deep sigh.
With that said, the entire class including Heavy Weight all cheered as they all began to get out of their seats and rushed to get out of class, Heavy walked more calmly as he collected his things including his new magical project and trotted for the door. He then looked back and saw Dark Shine slowly getting out of his seat while glaring at him with hidden fury, Heavy ignored him and stuck up his nose as he left Cloverstep's room with a proud smile.
He happily trotted through the hall ways with more confidence in himself as he followed the crowd of class mates to get to the schools cafeteria, he didn't have to walk far before suddenly coming into a bigger crowd of students as they all flooded the massive cafeteria. He quickly began pushing his way discretely through the crowd and was granted a fast and easy line to pick up his lunch. He didn't need to go very far before picking up a daisy sandwich, a carton of milk and celery sticks dipped in peanut butter.
Heavy levitated his tray and carried it out of the lunch line, he then looked around for a table to sit in, he walked through the cafeteria in search of a table to eat at, but it had appeared that no pony wanted him to sit with them, but that's when he got a familiar call.
"Hey Heavy! You wanna sit with us?!"Called out an all too familiar voice.
Heavy's ears perked up as he turned and smiled as he saw Twilight Sparkle and Shining Armor both sitting at a round table and waving to him, he returned the favor by waving back at them and trotting over to join them. Twilight let out an excited gasp as she jumped up and down on her seat with excitement, Heavy then proceeded to sit between his both friends and began eating while Twilight continued to happily stare at him with admiration.
"So... How good are you with magic?"Twilight asked.
"I'm...good enough, but I still hope to get better,"Heavy said nervously while Twilight giggled at him.
"Sorry about that, Twily really loves magic, and when she meets talented unicorns she just wants to know as much about magic from that unicorn as she can,"Shining explained with a chuckle.
"It's alright, I don't mind answering a few questions,"Heavy said as he chuckled back before turning to Twilight.
"So what kind of magic can you do?"Twilight asked excitedly.
"Well... I already know how to make magic shields, can also levitate things, and I just learned the basic magic beam,"Heavy said as he looked to one of his celery sticks.
He then decided to show them as he smirked before levitating the celery stick with his magic, he began to concentrate as his horn glowed brighter and began to flow even faster. It was then that he blasted a beam of magic at the celery stick and instantly made it burst into blue flames, the celery quickly disintegrated into ash as Twilight and Shining stared at the spectacle with amazement.
"Wow...! That was amazing!"Twilight said as she was on the edge of her seat.
"Yeah, but I know I can make the blast a lot bigger, but I'm just not exactly in the right place to be doing that,"Heavy said as he scratched at his mane with embarrassment.
"Yeah but still I gotta say...! I wasn't able to do that trick until I got my cutie mark, you really are something special,"Shining Armor said completely impressed with Heavy.
"Thanks, but that pails in comparison with a spell that I'm actually creating,"Heavy said as he pulled out a paper with the drawing of the new spell he was making.
"Ooh! You're making your own spell, that sounds so... amazing!"Twilight said as they both looked it over.
"Wow...! What is it exactly?"Shining Armor asked.
"It looks like a unicorn gaining power from his magic,"Twilight said out of curiosity.
"That's exactly what it is, I got the idea that maybe a unicorn could not only focus magic through the horn, but maybe unicorns could also focus it through their whole body, If used correctly, It could very well increase a unicorns speed, strength, endurance, and their senses ten fold,"Heavy Weight explained as he went through the process of the spell.
"That sounds amazing, if some pony could perform a magical enhancement spell like that, there's know telling what it could mean for new unicorns,"Shining Armor said with fascination.
"Yeah...! You think you can do it?!"Twilight asked with more excitement.
"Well... I haven't tried it out just yet, and I don't want to risk it going horribly wrong,"Heavy said nervously.
"Heavy...? To be honest with you, I would really like to see you actually make this spell, is there anything you could test it out on?"Shining asked as he looked around for something to use as a test subject.
Feeling flattered by the fact that a colt twice his age wanted to see a new spell be made by him, Heavy too began to look around for something to use, and that's when his sights set on Shining's empty lunch tray. He smirked as he then levitated the tray up and held it together with both of his hooves, Shining at that time had then looked back to see Heavy with his empty tray and watched carefully as Heavy began to concentrate.
Shining and Twilight then watched closely as Heavy then began to concentrate even harder, it was then that all there eyes lit up with excitement as Heavy's arms began to glow ice blue, he began to feel incredible strength coursing through his arms as Heavy then proceeded to start bending the tray. To all of their surprise, rather than merely bend, the minute Heavy began applying pressure, the tray instantly shattered into pieces as his two hooves slammed together.
The resulting explosion of the tray spooked all three of them a bit while also gaining the undivided attention of half the students in the cafeteria, as all eyes descended upon the trio, Heavy smiled nervously and dipped down in his chair a bit. Twilight and Shining Armor on the other hoof were too busy feeling overwhelmed by Heavy sort of actually performing a new spell that he had just made up, but Heavy knew that their needed to be some... Slight improvements.
"Whoops...! Uh... Maybe I should work on my touch a bit huh...?"He questioned to his two new friends.
"Yeah... Maybe a little bit, but still... In a way... You just created a brand new spell, and not just any spell, It's like some sort of enhancement spell,"Shining said with great astonishment.
"It was amazing! You're probably going to become one of the greatest unicorns of all time!"Twilight exclaimed as she almost jumped right out of her seat.
"Well... Thanks Twilight,"Heavy said as he started to blush a bit from Twilight's comment.
Suddenly their moment was quickly interrupted by the slamming of a tray and quickly turned to see a colt crying over his spilled food and drink, and right next to him was none other than Dark Shine who was laughing at the crying colt.
"Ha! What's wrong?! You eat much fatty?! Hey think of it this way, at least you don't need to worry about getting fatter than you already are!"Dark Shine insulted before suddenly shoving the colt to the ground, which only made the colt cry even more.
Now satisfied with what he did, Dark trotted off leaving the colt to wallow in self pity while he went to get his own food, he was however unaware that he was being watched by Heavy, Shining Armor and Twilight as they all glared at the bully. Seeing what Dark was doing to other students made his blood boil with desire to see karma come his way, but luckily he managed to contain himself before turning to Shining Armor for answers.
"So Shining...? You wanna tell me who that jerk is?"Heavy asked.
"He looks like nothing but a big bully!"Twilight pointed out.
"He is... His name is Dark Shine, he's some punk who talks big, but he doesn't really look all that big,"Shining said as he narrowed his glare at Dark."I think one of these days... I'm going to teach that punk a lesson he won't soon forget."
"And if you don't... I will."Heavy said as his sights narrowed to the dark colt.
"Heavy... I would love to see you pound that bully into the dirt."Shining said as he smiled back at Heavy.
"And I would love to see you do the same."Heavy said as they all went back to eating lunch as friends.
It was finally the end of Heavy Weight's first day at the Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns and Heavy could not be more excited than he was now, during recess he had worked a little bit more on the magic spell he was creating from scratch. Finally after a few tests on the school's jungle gym, he had finally gotten the entire spell down and could not have felt a stronger magical force coursing through his body. It may have cost him the school's jungle gym, but he had now created one of his very own spells and he could not wait to show it to his mother.
The schools bell had rung and the doors responded by swinging open revealing Heavy Weight as the first student out of the school, but that was then short lived as a parade of unicorns suddenly flooded out of the school, leaving Heavy trapped in a sea of unicorns. Thankfully the crowd soon dispersed as all the students were making for their homes, Heavy looked around and let out a sigh of relief as he then departed down the schools steps to go home as well. Just as he did step off the stairs with a proud look on his face, he was suddenly stopped by the calls of an all too familiar fan of his.
"Heavy Weight...! Wait up...!"Called the all too familiar small voice.
Heavy let out a deep sigh before smiling and shaking his head in the fact that he just couldn't shake her, he turned around and could see Twilight Sparkle waving to him before racing down the stairs. She quickly hopped off the last stair and was now face to face with Heavy as she smiled at him with admiration.
"Hey... Uh... Shouldn't you be with Shining Armor?"Heavy asked before Twilight let out a giggle.
"He said I could catch up to you to talk before we had to go."Twilight said as she let out a sigh.
"Oh... Okay then... So... What did you wanna talk about?"Heavy asked feeling a bit nervous.
"I just wanted to know... Are we friends?"Twilight suddenly asked sending Heavy into a mental state of confusion.
"Well I... I suppose we are... I mean you seem really nice and such, so I guess we are."Heavy said with a nervous chuckle
"Really...?! Oh that is so good to hear!"Twilight exclaimed as she suddenly wrapped her small hooves around him and gave Heavy a big hug.
Heavy began turning bright red as the little filly held him in her arms, all this sudden attention was making him feel a bit funny inside, but he managed to fight through the embarrassment he was feeling about this and began to hug her back. Finally after a solid minute of hugging, Twilight finally released him from her grip and stood there while Heavy quickly started to collect himself. He then looked back to her and saw that she was still smiling, he then decided to smile back at her as they both began chuckling nervously.
"So... Do you think we could you know... Hang out again some time, maybe teach me how to do that super cool spell you did out in the play ground."Twilight suggested.
"Um... Sure, but don't expect me to go easy on you, doing things the easy way is never the way to succeed."Heavy explained as he gained a frantic nod from Twilight.
"Okay, I can do that."Twilight simply said.
"Okay then, maybe tomorrow during recess I will show how to do it, but we'll need to find something else to use for testing since we or the school no longer has the jungle gym..."Heavy said with embarrassment as he scratched at his mane.
"Well... Accidents happen, but it was totally worth it to see that new spell work, what did it feel like with all that magic?"Twilight asked.
"It felt... Amazing, I felt almost unstoppable, like I could do anything."Heavy explained feeling a bit flattered.
"Oh Heavy...!"Another familiar voice suddenly called out.
Both Heavy and Twilight quickly turned to see none other than Golden Heart standing only ten feet from them smiling at both of them, Heavy instantly lit up with a big smile as he quickly rushed to his mother and jumped right into her arms.
"Mom...! You will not believe the day I just had! I've learned so much!"Heavy exclaimed as he snuggled against his mothers chest.
"I imagine so, oh and who's your little friend Heavy?"Golden Heart asked as she noticed Twilight smiling at them.
"Hi... My name is Twilight Sparkle."Twilight said while Golden Heart gently let Heavy down.
"It's nice to meet you Twilight Sparkle, my name is Golden Heart, I'm Heavy's mom... Aren't you a cute little filly."Golden Heart complimented while Heavy looked away with embarrassment.
"It's nice to meet you to Mrs Golden Heart, me and Heavy just became friends!"Twilight said proudly as she smirked at the embarrassed Heavy.
"Really...? Well I'm very glad to hear that my little Heavy is making friends,"Golden Heart chirped before turning to her son.
"Mom...!"Heavy said as he started to blush.
"Calm down Heavy, there's nothing wrong about admitting that you like some pony,"Golden Heart said as Twilight began to giggle at him.
"Oh come on mom...! Can we go now before I die of embarrassment?!"Heavy said as he could not stand any more of his mother's embarrassing words.
"Well... Alright then Heavy, it was nice meeting you Twilight, I'm sure he will see you again tomorrow."Golden Heart said as she walked over and stood at Heavy's side.
"Okay... Bye Heavy! See you tomorrow!"Twilight called out as Heavy and his mom began to depart for home.
"Bye Twilight...! I'll see you and Shining Armor tomorrow!"He called out before having to go faster just to keep up with his mom.
With that said, Heavy and Golden Heart were now walking down the streets of Canterlot once more, the walk was calm and quiet as they noticed the sun beginning to set for the city, but Golden Heart had different plans rather than just a small walk home.
For many minutes they spent their time walking in complete silence as the buildings around them began to get smaller the more they traveled down town, Heavy felt ambitious and was dying to show what he learned today, but Golden Heart was being secretive about something. It was then that they passed by the recently repaired concession stands and the owners themselves as they stared down the mother and son.
Heavy and Golden Heart just ignored the stallions as they disappeared out of sight and were finally coming up on their little house, Heavy felt his chance to show off his new moves dwindling as they were approaching their house. It was then that Golden Heart instantly made a sharp turn away from their house and was suddenly moving to the city's main gates, Heavy raised an eye brow at his moms mysterious move, but continued to follow her as they came upon the main gate.
"Um...mom? Where are we going?"Heavy asked.
"Just wait and see Heavy, you'll know as soon as we see it."Golden Heart said as they came to the gate.
As they stood there at the gate, Heavy then noticed as his mother lit up her horn and began to concentrate on the massive gate, It was then that Heavy widened his eyes in astonishment as the massive gate became surrounded in a dark blue aura and was slowly being lift up. Golden Heart concentrated hard as the gate slowly opened up for both of them, she then released her magic hold on the gate and casually walked through the gate, but stopped when she noticed that Heavy was still standing there.
"Well come on then, our special place isn't that much further."Golden Heart chirped as she continued on.
"Wait...! We're going to the special place?!"Heavy exclaimed as a smile stretched across his face.
"That's right sweetie, you and I are going to the special place, and we're going to see just what you've learned, and still remember what I've taught you."Golden Heart said as Heavy rushed to her side and trotted happily by her side.
"This is going to be so cool!"Heavy said as they made a sharp left onto a rough and bumpy path.
As they walked on the path, It began to get more narrow with each step, but Heavy and Golden Heart have been on this road many times before and knew the path inside and out. They quickly made their way through a few bushes and managed to squeeze by a few sharp rocks before finally coming to the special place.
Heavy unleashed the biggest and most strongest smile as he marveled at a massive plain that was just right behind the mountain, the plain stretched out for many miles and even had a large lake with a waterfall. For the pass two years since his magic first began to rise, this was the spot where him and his mother would practice and learn the skills that his father knew from his days as the captain of the royal guard.
Heavy found himself lost in nostalgia, but was quickly snapped out of it when he noticed his mom leaping forward and began running across the massive plain, she then stopped when she was just about in the middle of the plain. Heavy saw her waiting for him and did the same as he made a small hop forward before sprinting across the plain, he ran as fast as he could on his tiny legs as he was about to meet up with his mom.
Suddenly Heavy began to feel the ground shake under his hooves and stopped completely, he quickly began looking around for the source of the tremors, It was then that he noticed his mom smiling at him and her horn was glowing brightly. Now that he knew where the source of the earthquake was coming from, now he needed to wait and see exactly what his mother was doing.
It was then that the ground exploded around him, he felt his nerves start to fire up as he waited to see the dust of the explosions clear, and when the dust cleared, he was now staring down about eight ponies that were completely made of rock. A fiery pit began to grow in Heavy as he noticed the rock ponies surrounded in his mother's dark blue aura, he turned to her and gave her a confident smile as he got into a defensive position.
"Alright Heavy! Do you remember this exercise?!"Golden called out.
"Yes mom...! First exercise! Avoid and evade!"Heavy said in the tone of a little soldier.
"That's correct son! Now show me how well you can avoid and evade!"Golden Heart commanded.
At that moment, Golden Heart unleashed her rock ponies upon Heavy and made them charge at Heavy like real ponies. On rock pony out ran all the others and threw the first hoof at Heavy, but Heavy managed to side step and miss the rock hard hoof by mere inches. He then turned back to see another one rock pony lunging for him, and quickly rolled under the pony and just barely managed to miss hitting the pony's tail as it smashed to pieces upon impact with the ground. Two more showed up as they threw punches left and right that missed their target as Heavy bobbed and weaved, and spun to dodge the attacks, but was then suddenly blind sighted by a rock pony bucking him in the side of the cheek. He flew back and grinded in the ground before quickly getting back up to see that he had a small scratch on his cheek, this upset him greatly.
"Heavy...! Are you alright son?!"Golden Heart called out of concern for her son.
Heavy took this moment to catch his breathe before seeing two rock pony's charge at him from both sides, he looked at both of them and quickly came up with a plan, now was the time to show his mom one of his newest moves. He let out a deep sigh before quickly lighting u his horn and focusing his magic into his back hooves, he began to feel his hooves tremble as magic began to surround them in an ice blue aura.
Heavy remained focused while his mother looked on with interest at this new trick her son was performing, she could feel the density and heavy air of his magic hit her face as magic began to build in his hooves. Finally at that moment, Heavy snapped his eyes open and with a powerful leap, the ground exploded into a mass of bright blue magic as Heavy found himself high in the air, he looked down and watched as the two rock ponies slammed together. One of them was completely smashed to pieces while the other only had a chipped ear.
Heavy at that time had then narrowed his sights on the surviving rock pony and suddenly shocked his mother even more by focusing his magic into his front right hoof, he grit his teeth as he descended towards the pony like a speeding bullet. Golden Heart quickly thought fast and made the pony open it's rocky jaws open up and suddenly spit out a rapid fire of small rocks at the colt.
Heavy saw this and quickly unleashed his right hoof ready to strike the rock pony, the rocks then made contact, but were suddenly being disintegrated as they made contact with Heavy's hoof. Golden Heart began frantically gathering more rock ponies to join the rapid fire attack, but even with their combined force, Heavy smashed through their attacks as he closed in on the group.
And at that moment... Heavy threw his glowing right hoof at the first rock pony and in an instant, smashed completely through the pony and slammed his hoof through the ground as the entire land erupted around him, sending rock ponies flying Heart watched with astonishment as all but one rock pony was now demolished and laying on the ground in pieces.
In all the kicked up dust, Golden Heart quickly summoned three more rock ponies and immediately ordered them to attack Heavy, but Heavy was now seeing fire as he quickly threw another right hoof and smashed through on pony's head. another rock pony suddenly tried to attack Heavy from behind, but Heavy's heighten senses kicked in and in a flash of blinding speed turned his head and bucked the pony with both his legs, smashing it to pieces instantly. Heavy then heard another rock pony attacking him from the front and suddenly raised a hoof and blocked the incoming rock hoof instantly. Heavy then let out a hard snort and swung both his legs around in the form of a round house kick and knocked the fake pony's head, kicking up more dust in the process.
The dust quickly dissipated to show a glowing Heavy Weight that was now completely surrounded in an ice blue aura as he glared at the last remaining rock pony. Golden Heart lit up and an overjoyed smile grew on her face as she felt the intense power of her son, his horn glowed brightly as he pointed the tip of his horn at the last remaining rock pony. Two more rock ponies suddenly burst from the ground on each side and then quickly went on the attack, but were thwarted by Heavy raising a shield and smashing them to pieces on contact.
"GRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAGH! I WILL BE THE GREATEST UNICORN IN EQUESTRIA NO MATTER WHAT!"Heavy shouted as he suddenly blasted a massive ice blue beam from his horn.
Golden Heart's eyes widened as she quickly jumped out of the way, leaving her last fake pony in the path of the massive attack, she watched as the beam instantly overwhelmed and incinerated the rock pony as it then travel through the air. Golden Heart continued to watch as the massive magic beam suddenly soared high into the air and began to close in on another mountain. The anticipation of the beams power made her sweat bullets, she felt her legs tingle with excitement as the beam had then made contact with the mountain.
Suddenly she felt a massive explosion shake the entire plain around her as Heavy's attack hit the mountain and made the entire thing explode in a massive wave of smoke, blue flames and massive force. The force of the explosion almost knocked Golden Heart off her hooves as it suddenly blew away the clouds in the sky, a bright blue light then took place where the mountain once stood and glittered like a shining star as it slowly began to dim.
Trying to collect her thought's, Golden Heart looked back to her son to see him panting heavily while still surrounded in the ice blue aura, the power was still very much immense and she knew she needed to be careful.
"Easy now Heavy, It's all over, and you have done far more than enough."Golden Heart said containing her happiness as Heavy started to calm down.
"So... Did I do good mom?"Heavy said before he stopped glowing and dropped to his knees.
It was then that Heavy found himself scooped up into his mom's arms and being cradled as he could just barely see his mother smiling at him, he returned the favor by smiling back at her and starting to feel a little sleepy.
"You did more than good Heavy, you are going to be the greatest unicorn in the world, but for now... Sleep my son... Sleep,"Golden Heart said softly as she watched her son fall asleep, leaving her to her thoughts,"Oh thank Celestia...! I knew he was special, I just knew it! I just didn't know how special...!"
Golden Heart let out a happy sigh as she looked back to the completely destroyed mountain, almost nothing had remained of it except for the giant cloud of dust that surrounded the spot where the mountain once stood. She then looked back to the sleeping Heavy Weight and brushed a hoof through his mane.
She then decided that now was the time to go home, Golden quickly lit up her horn and made a large white orb surround her and Heavy, she then closed her eyes and concentrated as she felt herself and Heavy suddenly teleport away from the plains.
In a flash of bright white and blue magic, Golden Heart suddenly found themselves in Heavy Weight's bedroom, Golden Heart felt glad to be back as she turned to her son before laying him on his bed. She then tucked him in and gave him a small kiss on the fore head before quietly leaving his bedroom, allowing Heavy to sleep to his heart's content.
She gently tip hoof down the wooden steps before coming into the living room, the joy she was feeling right now was indescribable, this was the dream her husband hoped that their son would have, and to see her son already doing great things was filling her with pride. Golden Heart let out a sigh before suddenly turning to a picture of her and Mega Weight, she gently picked up the picture and smiled at it before gently putting it back down.
"Oh Mega Weight. If only you could see our son, you would be so proud of him. He's going to be the greatest unicorn in all of Equestria, just like you hoped."Golden Heart said as a tear streamed down her cheek.
Suddenly she felt her stomach tighten up in pain as she let out a few hard coughs into her arm, she felt her body weaken as she fell to her knees, she coughed a few more times before finally seeing a chance to stand once more. She quickly got to her hooves and was breathing heavily and irregularly as she started tasting something in her mouth, she soon got a horrible surprise as she looked down to her fore arm and saw a few drops of blood smeared over her fore arm.
Golden Heart gasp in horror as she quickly rushed into the kitchen and turned on the sink, she then proceeded to wash the blood from her fore arm and even filling her mouth in a panic to clear out the blood in her mouth. She gargled and spit into the sink to reveal more blood coming from her mouth, she felt her body grow cold as this sudden illness felt so sudden and out of the blue.
"Oh my gosh...! I... I need to get this checked out immediately! Whatever this is... It can't be good..."Golden Heart said as she felt her breathing becoming more strange.
She casually but fearfully walked away from the sink and trotted into her room and closed the door behind her so she could make a letter to the family doctor and go to bed early so she could be ready for tomorrow morning.
Celestia's sun was rising over the mountain as a new day was beginning for the wondrous city of Canterlot, but for Golden Heart, the day started even quicker for her. After last night's scare, she felt a little on edge and knew that she needed help, but she needed to keep her activity a secret, last thing she needed was Heavy Weight knowing anything about this.
Golden Heart was now in the kitchen making cereal for both her and Heavy so they could both eat quickly before going out, her hoof trembled a bit as she gently poured some cereal into Heavy's bowl. She still felt a bit shaken up from last night, but continued to try to shake off the fear as she levitated the milk out of the fridge and quickly poured some milk into each bowl.
As she levitated the milk back into the fridge, she tried to let out a deep breathe to calm herself, but every time she would try to breath, her breathing became strange and irregular. She quickly ignored the weird breathing and quickly levitated both bowls over to the table and sat there quietly waiting for Heavy Weight to come down for breakfast.
She didn't have to wait long before she could hear her sons tiny hooves clopping as he raced down the stairs, as Heavy suddenly jumped into view, Golden Heart let out a deep sigh and smiled to her son who was smiling right back.
"Good morning Heavy, did you sleep well last night?"Golden Heart asked as Heavy hopped up onto his seat.
"I sure did, but I never thought I would see you up early mom."Heavy said as he dug into his cereal.
"Yes well... I know how you are when I'm not up when you get up. So I decided to try and give being an early bird a try."Golden Heart said as she slowly ate her cereal.
"So... Do you really think I did good last night?"Heavy asked with each bite he took.
"I think you did wonderful Heavy, I have noticed however that you may be developing your father's big temper, oh how I remember how hard he came down on the guards every time they messed something up, I thought they would never stop shaking."Golden Heart said as she slowly bit down on more cereal.
"Oh... I'm sorry mom."Heavy said with some sincerity
"It's alright Heavy, If anything it was your father's temper that also pushed him to do great things in his life."Golden Heart said with a light chuckle
Suddenly Golden Heart felt her stomach getting tight again, she felt her heart jump, but did her best as she pulled a fore arm over her mouth and began coughing hard into her fore arm. As Heavy got done with his cereal, he couldn't but noticed Golden Heart coughing and felt a little bit worried inside, he watched as Golden Heart started to cease her coughing and take deep and strange breathes that worried him a little bit more.
"Mom...? Are you feeling okay?"Heavy said with pleading eyes.
"Oh...! I... I'm just feeling a little under the weather sweetie, It's nothing to worry about,"Golden Heart said as she suddenly made Heavy's school materials appear,"Now then, It's about time you got to school don't you think?"
"Oh my gosh you're right,"Heavy said as they looked to a clock,"I'm going to be late for school!"
Heavy quickly jumped off his seat and levitated all his school materials onto his back, he then quickly gave his mother a quick kiss on the cheek before swinging the door open and quickly rushing out to go to school. The door slowly closed behind him leaving his mother to let out a sigh of relief before suddenly coughing and spitting out blood onto the table.
She panicked as she quickly levitated a large amount of napkins over and frantically began wiping up all the blood, she felt her mind racing and filling with fear as she roughly wiped away all the traces of her blood. She then quickly wiped her mouth off and threw the napkins away before going as far as to make the trash can disappear, she felt her heart pounding against her chest as she quickly rushed over to a coat rack in the living room and picked up her old brown cloak. She quickly threw the cloak on and rushed to the door with only one thing that was on her mind.
"I can't ignore this! I have to see doctor Hoover!"She said to herself as she opened the door and departed for the hospital.
Golden Heart now found herself speed walking up the streets of the city, she did her best to keep her face hidden and ignore any patrons on the road to avoid any unnecessary confrontation. It didn't take her long before she was passing the familiar sight of a Pegasus and Earth pony stallions hard at work on their recently repaired concession stands, the minute they looked up from their stands they saw Golden Heart and began glaring at her.
She did her best not to look at them and began picking up the pace just to get away from them, but her chance was quickly thwarted when she was suddenly stopped by the Pegasus who had taken off and landed right in front of her, blocking her path completely.
"And exactly where do you think your going little Miss?!"The Pegasus said as he threw back her hood and revealing her face to them.
"Look... I don't want any trouble, I just want to continue on with my day, If it was something that my son did I apologize, but I really need to be leaving...!"Golden Heart said while backing up before suddenly being stopped by the Earth pony that stood right behind her.
"I don't think you'll be leaving any time soon...!"The earth pony growled as he shoved Golden Heart into the Pegasus.
The Pegasus then grabbed her by her cloak and held her as he stared right into her eyes with burning fury in his eyes, the earth pony had also walked closer and pressed his chest up against Golden Heart's flank to make absolutely no means of escape.
"You...! And your son have caused us nothing but trouble and bits to fix our stands that your child has destroyed time and time again! So unless you want something to happen to your son next time we see him, you better have some money to pay for the damages!"The Pegasus warned as he tightened his grip on Golden Heart.
"You... You wouldn't dare!"Golden Heart said in disbelief.
"Just try us Miss! You think repairs are expensive, try hospital bills for colts that are now vegetables!"The Earth pony suddenly threaten.
Golden Heart let out a horrified gas as her blood suddenly felt ice cold, these stallions were threatening to hurt her child, a child that she could never be more proud and happy to have as a son. She felt her fear start to fade and was instantly replaced with anger as well as disgust in thought of stallions actually bringing harm to a colt... Especially her colt.
Golden Heart then shocked both of them by suddenly rearing back her head and headbutting the Pegasus right in the fore head, the force of the head butt dazed the stallion as he stumbled back and fell onto his back. The Earth pony quickly snapped out of his shock and went to strike Golden Heart in the head, but was then quickly bucked in the jaw and sent flying back about ten feet before crashing down on his back.
Golden Heart let out an angry snort at both stallions as they struggled to get back up, they already had scratches on them now and the Pegasus now had a big bruise forming on his fore head, they both growled at her before slowly advancing towards her.
"Don't even think about it! You stallions dare to threaten the well being of my son! IF YOU TWO THINK THAT I WOULD EVER LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO MY HEAVY WEIGHT! YOU ARE BOTH SURELY MISTAKEN!"Golden Heart suddenly roared as the stallions began charging at her.
Golden Heart let out a frustrated sigh and shook her head in disappointment as she lit up horn, she quickly surrounded her self in a dark blue magical orb before her eyes started to glow white. It was in that moment that in a big bright flash of light, Golden Heart had teleported away just as the stallion's were about to throw some hard right hoofs at her, but she was gone before they could touch her. The stallions had once again found themselves in a losing battle with momentum and struck each other in the jaws with their hooves, knocking each other out and laying in a small pile unconscious while ponies around them began laughing at them.
Meanwhile Golden Heart traveled through a tunnel of magic before suddenly reappearing far away from that little issue, she let out another snort of anger before letting the rest of her fury out in one big deep breathe. She shook her head and looked up to see herself now in front of the Canterlot hospital, she nodded before slowly departing inside the place that she remember all too well as the place that became the birth place of her son.
She quietly entered the hospital and took a good look around the hospital lobby, there were a few sick or injured ponies waiting to be attended to, but even so, the place appeared to be quiet. It was then that Golden Heart could see a brown stallion with a chocolate brown mane and tail standing by the elevator in a white doctors outfit while talking to a familiar mare nurse. She gasped with excitement as she recognized both the doctor and the nurse right away and quickly rushed over to them.
"Doctor Hoover...! Nurse Red Cross...! Oh thank Celestia I found you!"Golden Heart called out getting the doctor and nurse's attention.
"Ah...! Miss Golden Heart, It is always a pleasure to see you, forgive me for this but I was a bit worried myself when I read the letter you had sent me last night."Doctor Hoover said with a comforting smile.
"So you did get my letter...! Thank Equestria for that, you have to understand that I fear this could be serious and I'm worried,"Golden Heart said in a slight shaky voice.
"Alright then, just try to collect your thoughts and follow me and nurse Red Cross, and we'll discuss the matter."Doctor Hoover said as him and nurse Red Cross walked down the hall with Golden Heart right by their side.
Golden Heart still felt fear growing within her, she felt very uneasy as her legs shook in response with her fear, Doctor Hoover noticed this and offered her a hoof, but she politely declined and let out a sigh to calm her spirits. Nurse Red Cross started to feel a little worried for Golden Heart, she felt like Golden Heart was some how a good friend of hers and wanted the best for her friend, but she chose not speak.
"So Miss Golden Heart, would you like to start off by explaining the symptoms you've been having?"Doctor Hoover asked as they walked through the endless hall way.
"Oh... Yes of course, It all started this morning, I felt weak and I started to breath very strangely, that's when I decided to lay down and take a nap, I thought that would make me feel better."Golden Heart explained as she felt her breathing becoming irregular as she spoke.
"I see... And did it help at all?"Nurse Red Cross asked as she was given a file of Golden Heart's medical records by doctor Hoover.
"No... Last night it happened again and... I was coughing up blood and I could barely breath, I didn't want Heavy to know so I wiped up the blood and kept it to myself.,"Golden Heart explained again as she tried to slow her breathing.
"Mmm hmm... And It appears you are struggling to breath right now."Doctor Hoover pointed out as they approached a room.
"I... Yes doctor, please... I'm very worried about this doctor Hoover...!"Golden Heart begged as tears threatened to leave her eyes.
"I understand Miss Golden Heart, you have every right to be worried, but do not fear, we will get to the bottom of this in no time,"Doctor Hoover said as he opened the door to a room with a regular patients bed and many different machines,"Now then... If you would sit up on the patient's bed, we will get started immediately."
Golden Heart felt very nervous about this, she felt her legs shaking telling her to back away, but she knew she had to get to the bottom of this, she had to take it all the way, just like her husband had taught her. She let out a raspy sigh as she slowly walked into the room and crawled up onto the bed, she sat there knocking her back hooves together as doctor Hoover and nurse Red Cross entered and shut the door behind them.
After a few hours of medical tests, Golden Heart now found herself waiting outside doctor Hoover's office waiting patiently for her results, the anticipation was nerve racking, she was tapping her hooves together rapidly, sweat was dripping from her head, fear once again gripped her with uncertainty. She then began to think about Heavy Weight, would she get him sick with something like this, and how worried was he going to be after he learns of her visit to the doctor.
Suddenly she heard the knob of the doctor's door turn and gradually watched as the door slowly opened. It was then that nurse Red Cross poked her head out through the door and looked to Golden Heart with an extremely worried look, Golden Heart looked to her now worried as well as nurse Red Cross lowered her head.
"Doctor Hoover will see you now Golden Heart..."Red Cross said in a very low tone.
Golden Heart gradually nodded her head and got up out of her chair, she then quietly opened the door farther to see nurse Red Cross walking over to doctor Hoover who was sitting behind his desk and staring grimly at a file. As Red Cross stood by the doctor's side, Golden Heart quietly entered the room and sat in the seat that was directly in front of the desk and cleared her throat to get his attention.
"Um... Doctor Hoover...? How were my results doctor, did you figure out what's wrong?"Golden Heart asked as the doctor let out a frustrated sigh and rubbed at his eyes.
"Golden Heart... What I'm about to tell you here is serious and... You're not going to like what I have to say..."Doctor Hoover said as he took another deep breathe before looking up to Golden Heart.
"W-What is it doctor...? Please you have to tell me!"Golden Heart begged while nurse Red Cross turned her head away in fear of what was to come.
Doctor Hoover slowly got out of his chair and began walking towards the window behind him, he then began to gaze at the view of the city as he did his best to come to grips with what he had to say. He then took one last deep breathe before slowly turning back to a very worried Golden Heart and began.
"We... Have your results... And... Well we don't know what it is, but it's infecting your lungs and is growing slowly through your body..."Doctor Hoover said as Golden Heart looked on with disbelief.
"Can it be cured doctor?! Please... Is there anything you can do...?!"Golden Heart questioned in fear.
"I... I'm afraid there isn't much we can do... You are in for a very rough time Golden Heart and... I think in time... You should think about making plans for yourself..."Doctor Hoover said grimly.
The news struck Golden Heart in the heart with great force as she suddenly dropped to her knees, fear, shock, sadness and horror at this revelation gripped her as she breathed heavily and felt tears stinging her eyes. She held both hooves over her mouth as if she was going to be sick, doctor Hoover and nurse Red Cross quickly rushed over and tried to help her to her hooves, but she remained solid as a rock on the floor.
Finally tears began streaming down her cheek as she slowly began to break into a sob, she shook her head in disbelief as she looked up to the doctor, Red Cross was taken by the mother's grief and almost allowed a tear to escape her eyes as she turned away in pain. Golden Heart Slowly got back to her hooves before sitting back in the chair and crying quietly to her self, both hooves covered her face as she cried with so much devastation, the thought of her son was now eating away at her and sending her down a spiral of grief.
It was then that she felt a hoof on her cheek and slowly opened her hooves up to see nurse Red Cross giving her a sad look before suddenly lunging to the nurse and hugging her for comfort as she continued to weep. Doctor Hoover was patient and waited in complete silence before suddenly seeing Golden Heart part from her hug with Red Cross and struggle to wipe away her tears.
"Please Miss Golden Heart... I really didn't want you to hear it, but... I'm very sorry about this."Hoover said while Golden Heart struggled to find the words to say about this.
"I-I just... What am I suppose to do doctor...? I have a son for Celestia's sake... What am I suppose to do about him!?"Golden Heart said through choked sobs.
"That's what I also wanted to discuss Miss Golden Heart, I wanted to talk about some things about Heavy, do you have any pony you can trust by any chance?"Doctor Hoover asked.
"No... You don't understand... I'm all he has left... He doesn't have his father, he has no brothers or sisters... He has no pony, I'm all he has left...!"Golden Heart explained as Red Cross gave her a tissue to use.
She gladly took the tissue and blew her nose with it before making the tissue disappear in a small flash of blue magic, she then sniffled as she looked up only to see a small smile appear on doctor Hoover's face.
"I think I may have a solution to this problem, there is a certain some pony who has had her eye on you and your son for quite some time now, I believe that the minute I send her a letter, she'll be waiting right there to take Heavy under her wing should the worst come for you,"Doctor Hoover explained to a now confused.
"What...? Who...? Can I really trust her with my son...?"Golden Heart said as she wiped a few tears from her eyes.
"Trust me Miss Golden Heart, there is no pony more trust worthy with a talented unicorn like your son than her, she will take good care of him."Doctor Hoover reassured as Golden Heart struggled to give them a little smile.
"Well... If this pony is as good as you say she is, I... I'll trust you doctor,"Golden Heart said with a sniffle as she got out of her chair,"Now then... If you'll excuse me doctor, I would really like to leave and see my son."
"Of course Golden Heart, you are free to go, In the mean time... I have a letter to prepare for a certain some pony..."Doctor Hoover said as he pulled out a piece of paper and a quill pen.
With that business done, Golden Heart quietly left the doctor's office and closed the door behind her, she felt cold and heart broken, but in the end, all she could think about now was her son. She took a deep breathe and began to make her horn glow once more, her eyes lit up bright white as she once again found herself once again surrounded in a dark blue orb of magic. Her expression got serious as she focused hard and instantly teleported once again.
In a bright flash of blinding white light, Golden Heart reappeared just outside of the Celestia's School For gifted Unicorns, the memories Golden Heart had of this school were filling her mind as a smile finally came upon her face. She even decided to brush a gentle hoof over the stone steps of the school as she found herself lost in nostalgia over the memories she had shared with Mega.
Suddenly Golden Heart found herself snapped out of her nostalgic moment by a massive explosion coming from right behind the school, the ground trembled beneath her hooves as she saw smoke rise from behind the school. Her eyes then went big as she felt a familiar heaviness in the air, breathing felt even more difficult now, but she now knew for certain that this was possibly Heavy's doing.
She immediately took off and ran around the entire school feeling the entire air around her become heavier with each step, she had barely made it around the corner before almost tripping over a small colt that appeared to be shaken up by whatever was happening.
"What's going on here little colt?!"Golden Heart questioned.
"The... The new colt... Dark Shine started a fight between him, Shining Armor and the new colt. He beat Shining Armor, but the new colt...! The colt just..."The colt breathed out before a sudden shout interrupted them.
"DON'T YOU EVER ATTACK MY FRIENDS...! AND DON'T EVER STEAL MY SPELLS YOU STUPID...! WORTHLESS...! PATHETIC...! COWARD...!"Screamed the familiar voice of Heavy Weight.
Golden Heart instantly bolted around the school petrified in deep fear for her son, she quickly managed to get around another corner before being met with the most overwhelming sight she had ever encounter.
The entire school playground looked like a massive war zone, smoky and burning craters were all over the place. Swing sets and slides were now broken, bent and half melted by heavy magic. She saw many frighten colts and fillies hiding in craters and any spot they could find as one colt pointed towards the center of the playground.
Golden Heart quickly directed her sights to the center of the playground and saw Twilight Sparkle holding onto an injured colt with a white coat, a three shaded blue mane and tail, and a cutie mark of a blue shield with a purple star in the center.
"GET HIM HEAVY...!"Twilight suddenly shouted out to her left.
Golden Heart quickly turned her head and to her shock, she was now watching her son pound the living crud out of a pitch black colt with a silver mane and tail, and a cutie mark of a black heart with a fluorescent red hue around it. With each devastating hoof Heavy delivered to the colts face, the colts face began to get more bruised, scratched and even very bloody. Golden Heart instantly ran to her son in a panic to stop her son, fear gripped her as she then leaped for Heavy.
"HEAVY WEIGHT STOP...! THAT'S ENOUGH...!"Golden Heart screamed as she wondered in the back of her head and thought of what could have occurred for all of this to happen.
Heavy Weight was once again walking the streets of Canterlot, but this time he wasn't in the best of moods, he felt a little uneasy about some things, he felt something different going on with his mom ever since she told him that she felt sick. He then began to get a bad feeling that this day was not going to end well, he did his best to hide his worry as he passed by a few ponies slowly. He didn't even bother messing with the two stallions he enjoyed torturing when it came to their small business.
It wasn't long till he reached the school once more and let out a deep sigh before forcing a smile across his face to keep up a good attitude. As Heavy approached the steps to the school, Heavy felt his smile become less forced as he saw Twilight Sparkle and Shining Armor waiting for him at the top of the stairs. He started to feel a little better and even a little excited inside as he quickly rushed up the stairs to meet them. The minute he did get up the stairs he was then tackled and given another big hug by Twilight before he could even say anything.
"Well... I guess... You're happy to see me..."Heavy let out through his choking.
"Sorry about that, she's been talking about you all night last night, come on Twilight let the kid breath."Shining Armor said as Twilight slowly released him.
"I'm sorry, it's just so nice to meet my new friend!"Twilight exclaimed as she jumped with joy.
"Yeah... You don't say, so... Are you ready for what's coming on the playground?"Heavy asked.
"Oh yes...! I can't wait!"Twilight exclaimed.
"Wait... What's happening at the playground?"Shining Armor questioned as they all ventured into the school.
"Heavy Weight's going to show me how to do that cool super spell he made up yesterday,"Twilight exclaimed, making Shining raise an eye brow in disbelief.
"Uh... Twily? Don't you think you learned enough? You already got down the levitation spell, and you just about got the shield spell down."Shining Armor said a bit nervous for his sister.
"Wait... So you managed to learn levitation?"Heavy questioned with a semi impressed look.
"I sure did! Look for yourself!"Twilight said.
She quickly gritted her teeth and began to focus hard before finally getting her horn to glow purple, she then turned to Shining Armor and began focusing on her big brothers back pack. With a small grunt she managed to pull it off Shining and made it slowly circle around Heavy, Heavy watch with fascination as Twilight slowly lowered the back pack down towards the ground and gave it back to Shining Armor.
"Come on Twily. You could have used his back pack."Shining teased as they turned around the corner into a hall way.
"I'm sorry Shining, I just wanted to show Heavy what I could do...!"Twilight confessed much to Heavy's interest.
"Well... That wasn't bad, but I still say you can do much more if you apply yourself more."Heavy said much to Twilight's interest.
"Oh really...? Maybe I have to show you what I got at the play ground?"Twilight challenged while making Shining and Heavy chuckle.
"Easy there Twily, not sure you're ready for something like that."Shining said in hopes of putting out Twilight's sudden burning spirit.
"Well that's why I wanna work with Heavy on my magic at the playground."Twilight retorted to her brother as they finally stopped at Shining Armor's class.
"Alright Twilight just take an easy, we'll see what you got at the playground later on."Heavy said, now a little scared of his little fan.
"Yeah, I guess I can't stop her, you think you can get her to magic kindergarten class?"Shining asked.
"Sure, no problem Shining."Heavy happily replied.
With that, Shining Armor casually walked into his class leaving Twilight in the hooves of Heavy, Heavy let out a sigh and began to depart with Twilight close at his side. Twilight hopped like a bunny around Heavy while Heavy just walked casually down the hall way, he chuckled to himself while trying to figure out what this filly was seeing in him.
As the two of them walked down the hall, they could see unicorns more to their age staring at them with confusion and even some admiration. Twilight enjoyed the attention she got, but Heavy didn't like the looks he got, it was embarrassing, especially when he had a filly hopping around him like she was playing ring around the rosie.
"So Heavy? How do you do that amazing trick with magic?"Twilight asked as she finally stopped bouncing around the colt.
"Uh... It's simple really, all you have to do is concentrate on your body, and make sure you can fill your body full of all the magic it needs to stimulate every muscle in your body."Heavy explained.
"Oh... Okay I get it now!"Twilight said with realization.
"Yeah well... We'll see if you really get it on the playground...!"Heavy insisted in a cocky tone.
It was then that Heavy and Twilight had finally come to Twilight's kindergarten class, Heavy looked inside and saw plenty of unicorns his age currently paying attention to the teacher as she went over the basic steps of magic. Heavy suppressed the urge to laugh at such a simple lesson before turning to Twilight who actually looked a bit down about being in such an easy class.
"What's with you? You got an easy class to got to, advanced classes are called advance for a reason."Heavy said to the down filly.
"But I feel like I can do much more than all this simple stuff, they don't even teach you how to levitate. Do you know who actually showed me how to levitate?"Twilight said in a low tone.
"I'll bite... Who taught you to levitate?"Heavy asked.
"Well... Shining Armor helped me get the spell down but... You were the one who showed me how to do it..."Twilight said in a more honest voice.
"Oh... I... I was... Glad to help you learn a spell then..."Heavy said with a bit of blush at Twilight's answer.
"That's another reason I was hoping you could teach me later on at the play ground, I want to learn real magic and become strong and good with magic just like you... I want to be the best unicorn in the world..."Twilight said as she continued to admire Heavy.
"Oh really... Because if that's what you're hoping to do, you need to beat me in a magical duel. Because I'm also going to become the greatest unicorn in the world."Heavy Weight explained with a bold and proud smile.
"I will accept your challenge... And I hope the day will come when I get to face you when I'm ready!"Twilight said as she brushed her head against Heavy's chest.
"And... Uh... I look forward... To that day when we battle, but for now let's just keep learning magic together..."Heavy suggested while trying to fight off his blush.
"You got it Heavy!"Twilight exclaimed with a confident smile.
Suddenly before Twilight could leave for class, they suddenly heard the loud slam of a locker and quickly turned their heads to see a bruised up colt about Heavy's age and Dark Shine pinning the colt against a locker. They glared at the colt as he lifted the little colt up and flashed a wicked smile at the helpless victim.
"So...! What were you saying about this being your locker?!"Dark snapped at the colt as he started to cry.
"I-I'm sorry, I just wanted to put my stuff away before I was late to class...!"The colt cried out.
"Oh...! You mean this stuff,"Dark said before suddenly levitating the colts back pack and throwing it in a nearby trash can."There's a place for your stuff, why don't you crawl around in that trash while you're getting your bag? You are trash after all!"
The colt continued to cry as Dark then slammed the little colt into a locker before walking off with his nose stuck up in the air and a proud smile on his face. Heavy gave Dark a death stare while Twilight started to feel a little afraid of Dark Shine, but all Heavy was thinking was please let something awful happen to that jerk.
It was then that Dark Shine was walking their way and that's when Twilight was starting to get scared, she quickly hid behind Heavy as Dark Shine suddenly locked eyes with her. He gave off a little smirk before shifting himself towards her and giggling as he noticed Heavy Weight staring him down.
"Oh look...! It's Shining loser's worthless little sister. Don't you have a little class for trash unicorns to go to?"Dark questioned with a chuckle.
"N-no..."Twilight said quietly with fear.
"You know something Dark Shine...? If you looked up the word trash. It would have a picture of you in it, so why don't YOU get in that class, those kids in there look about your size."Heavy taunted as Twilight let out a sharp gasp.
"What did you just say to me you little squirt?!"Dark growled as he focused on Heavy now.
"You heard me. Maybe if you would pay attention more. Maybe you could actually prove that you're worth something!"Heavy continued to taunt while Dark got more angry by the minute.
"YOU ARE ASKING FOR IT AREN'T YOU?!"Dark roared as he raised a hoof to Heavy.
"Asking...?! I'm begging for it! if you were smart you would understand the difference! Besides I probably wouldn't get much from you any way!"Heavy yelled as Dark then began screaming in a fit of rage.
Suddenly Dark threw a hard hoof at the colt, Heavy quickly saw the attack coming and threw up a shield around him and Twilight. Dark slammed his hoof against the shield, but the shield held up strong and stopped Dark cold before he suddenly noticed that small blue flames were on his hoof.
Dark panicked a bit as he quickly ran to the nearest water fountain and quickly began pouring water on his hoof, thankfully the blue fire was extinguished and Dark Shine was able to let out a sigh of relief. He then shook off the scare and stared back at Heavy Weight while Heavy was giggling at the frightened colt.
"You might want to be careful Dark, my shield might be a little too hot for you to handle...!"Heavy taunted as Dark decided to cut his loss and walk away.
"You're dead squirt, you just wait!"Dark yelled as he walked off with a snort.
"Yeah whatever...! I'll see you in class,"Heavy said as he turned back to a frighten Twilight who was doing her best to keep watching him,"Are you alright Twilight?"
"I... I'm sorry, I just never seen a pony do that before, you... Stood up for me..."Twilight said as a smile appeared on her face.
"Well... Sure, I wasn't about to let my friend take a pounding from some no talent bully with an attitude, what kind of friend would I be,"Heavy questioned gaining a small giggle in response,"Word of advice though... Never let bullies and thugs try to scare, you need to face them with courage and bravery. That is also something you have to do to become the best."
"Yes sir...!"Twilight said as she gave him a small salute.
"Okay then... I'll see you at lunch I guess?"Heavy asked while scratching at his mane.
"You know It!"Twilight said before finally rushing into her class room.
With that, Heavy gave her a small smile before hearing the school bell ring, he realized he was late for class and jumped up in shock as he turned around and immediately began racing down the hall way to get to his class. He quickly slid under two unicorn colts that were lined up and jumped over a small unicorn as he could see Mrs Cloverstep standing at the end of the hall waiting for him.
He felt intense, the blood rushing through him, the excitement that he may just make it in time for class, he quickly leaped in the air and was so taken by the moment he didn't even noticed that his horn was glowing. He suddenly felt like he was flying as he looked down and saw himself soaring through the air surrounded by an ice blue aura.
Shock over took him as he then exploded and shot down the hall way like a magic blue bullet and was aiming directly for Mrs Cloverstep. He tried his best to stop the momentum of the strange shot he was in, but was only able to lighten it up enough so the blue aura would disappear. Heavy was still soaring at great speeds as he was closing in on Mrs Cloverstep, but thankfully the teacher managed to duck just as Heavy soared right pass her and slammed head first into the wall.
The force of the head on crash made the whole hallway shake while spreading pieces of rubble every where. Rubble even went into the teacher's mane as she panicked while struggling to pull Heavy out of the wall, it took only a small tug to pull Heavy Weight out of a small hole he made in the wall right next to the class room. Heavy coughed and began shaking off the bit of daze he felt from his collision as he gave Cloverstep a little smile with embarrassment.
"Mr Heavy Weight! What on Equestria were you doing!"Cloverstep exclaimed as she helped brush the rubble off the colt.
"I don't know, but now I got a new spell to make!"Heavy exclaimed with excitement at what he just did.
"You need to be more careful Heavy. You could have gotten hurt from pulling crazy stunts like that!"Cloverstep said as she cringed at looking at the hole in the wall.
"Aww come on, I'm fine... Oh and sorry about the wall Mrs Cloverstep..."Heavy said in a low tone.
"Oh... Don't worry about it, Celestia is usually very forgiving when it comes to such accidents."Cloverstep said with a deep sigh again.
"So... Did I make it to class in time?"Heavy asked as he realized that the bell stopped.
"Well... I suppose I could let this one slide, just be more careful next time."Cloverstep said with worry.
"Yes...! Thanks Mrs Cloverstep!"Heavy said as he happily trotted inside.
Cloverstep let out a sigh as she watched the happy little colt, she then couldn't help but smile at Heavy as the memory of the times she had spent helping to teach Mega Weight when he was a colt. She gave a small nod as she walked into the classroom to begin her lesson with all her students, unaware of the tension that was growing between two of her students.
A Few Hours Later
Heavy Weight, Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle were once again in the cafeteria eating lunch together at a round table, they enjoyed a lunch of peanut butter and jelly, daffodil flowers and chocolate milk. During class earlier Heavy had no further issues with Dark Shin, and even managed to get some time to draw and make a few details on the spell he had created by accident earlier, just another spell that he pulled from his mind and placed on paper.
As he took bite out of his sandwich, Heavy couldn't help but pull out three different spells made from his own mind and started working on details on how to make them work, one of them just so happened to be the one from earlier, while the others barely had any detail on them. He stared lazily as he drew them out and began making adjustments before suddenly being snapped out of his bored and creative state by Twilight who decided to poke him on the nose with the stem of a daffodil.
"W-what...! Oh... Don't scare me like that,"Heavy said frantically while Twilight and Heavy laughed at him.
"Oh come on... Take an easy there Heavy, you just seemed to be in your own little world with all that spell designing and such, you might as well start making a book about spells!"Shining joked as Heavy stared back at the papers.
"Hey... That actually sounds like a good idea Shining, I could put all this in a book and maybe publish it when it's complete. If other unicorns can use these spells, it could spawn a whole new generation of magic. Then princess Celestia would even have to acknowledge me!"Heavy exclaimed with a bright smile.
"That sounds great! I can't wait to read your book!"Twilight happily said as she finished her milk.
"Thanks for the idea Shining, I think I'll call them... Combat spells, so many endless spells that can be used, could you imagine what hundreds of unicorns could do with just two spells that I'm making?!"Heavy asked with great interest.
"Yeah, imagine the princess herself using these spells? You would be famous!"Twilight exclaimed as she finished her lunch.
"Okay that's it, I'm doing this book thing!"Heavy said completely convinced.
"okay, I'm going to dump my tray."Twilight said as she magically levitated her tray and walked with it to the trash cans.
"Gee... Your sister sure is a very likable filly. She already seems to consider me her best friend and I just met her yesterday."Heavy said while drawing.
"Well... She hasn't exactly been good with friends so far, I'm actually the only friend she has and well... I'm her brother so of course we get along great."Shining Armor said while finishing his daffodils.
"Really...?! I didn't know you could be best friends with your siblings, I really don't have a brother or sister to be honest."Heavy Weight said in an honest tone.
"Yeah... It's fun, but it also comes with a bit of responsibility. I need to watch after my little sister, I don't know what I would do if something bad would happen to her."Shining explained in a solemn tone.
"So... You're worry about her..."Heavy said as he looked to the solemn face of Shining.
"Yeah... She's really ambitious, and they say that she may have a lot of potential when it comes to magic, but I'll never stop thinking off her as my little sister, and it worries me that she may get hurt when practicing her magic...!"Shining said as he turned to Heavy.
"Oh... My mom worries too, but she always gives me space to grow, she understands the dreams I have and supports me with what I do no matter the danger."Heavy said while sipping his milk.
"Are you saying I should just support her?"Shining asked.
"Well... You can't always stop her, I can see she's got that determination that I have, and she's going to do what she can to become the best, so... Maybe you should just support her and let her follow her dream... It would make her happy."Heavy explained as he put a hoof to Shining's shoulder.
Shining turned to him with a small smile, and placed a hoof on Heavy's shoulder as if he was approving of what Heavy suggested, he felt a connection growing with Heavy and couldn't help but respect Heavy for his advice. He was about to say something to Heavy, but their moment was quickly ruined by the noise of another tray slamming to the ground.
The quickly turned their heads and Shining immediately gasp as they both saw Twilight looking down at her tray while Dark Shine was looking down on her and laughing at narrowed his sights on Dark while Shining felt his rage building inside his body, Heavy was the first one to get out of his chair before Shining was right behind him. As they were approaching the scene, they watched as Dark was laying down the law with Twilight.
"That is what happens when you hide behind squirts, next time you hide from me. I will kick both you and your brothers flanks do you understand me!"Dark said firmly in Twilight's ear.
Twilight didn't answer, she felt scared inside and didn't dare look up at the dark colt, she felt cold, worthless and weak, Dark Shines laughing only made her feel worse. Suddenly she raised her head a bit as she began remembering what Heavy told her earlier about bullies, she can't be afraid of them, she needs to stand up to them with bravery and courage, if she wanted to be the best, that is what she must do when it comes to bullies.
"Hey...! I'm talking to you, answer me you piece of trash!"Dark yelled as Twilight looked down to her tray again.
She then began to feel her fear fade away and slowly begin to be replaced with rage, she didn't like the names he was calling her, she didn't like that he was threatening her and her brother, and most of all... She didn't like him making fun of her new friend. She slowly gritted her teeth in anger as she levitated her tray off the ground and turned towards the trash can.
Suddenly Twilight felt something snap as she instantly spun around and smacked Dark Shine across the face making him take a few steps back while holding his jaw in pain. Every pony in the cafeteria let out a huge gasp as Twilight started coming to grips with what she just did, she instantly dropped her tray as she saw Dark recovering from the blind sight and glare at her.
"You... Are... So... DEAD...!"Dark shouted as he charged at Twilight with a fully lit up horn.
Twilight flinched in fear as she shut her eyes tight and braced herself for a lot of pain, she felt her blood going cold and her fur standing up with horror as she awaited her attack, but it didn't come. Twilight opened her eyes and saw that Dark Shine's attack was stopped cold by a large and thick ice blue shield that was surrounding her.
Dark struggled to free himself from the grasp of the shield before it suddenly released him, he looked around for the source of the shield, but was then blind sighted as Heavy appeared right in front of him and gave him a hard buck to the nose. Dark stumbled back and landed on his flank while holding his nose in pain, he managed to open an eye to see his attacker and was shocked to see both Heavy and Shining Armor standing right in front of Twilight in a protective position.
"Keep your disgusting hooves off her Dark Shine. How much of a coward do you have to be when you are picking on little fillies, you're the real piece of trash here Dark Shine."Heavy said while Twilight smiled at him and her brother.
"Dark Shine I have had it with you! It wasn't enough to pick on pony's half your age. Now your even picking on little fillies, but no pony ever messes with my little sister! We are settling this on the playground right now!"Shining Armor yelled at the colt.
"Fine...! When I finish pulverizing the two of you, I'll come back for your sister! I accept both of your challenges!"Dark said as they heard the recess bell ring.
"Good... Now I get to at least see the real piece of trash show us what he's got."Heavy insulted as they watched Dark let out a snort before walking off with the rest of the crowd to go to recess.
With that business done and a fight now scheduled between them, they both turned back to a frighten Twilight who looked at them with fear as she realized her early actions may have been the cause of this.
"I... I... I'm sorry... I didn't mean for this to happen..."Twilight said with guilt.
"*sigh*... It's okay Twily, It was about time Dark Shine got what was coming to him."Shining Armor said with a calm smile.
"Are you sure the two of you can handle Dark Shine?"Twilight asked with concern.
"Oh we can handle Dark Shine, you just sit back and watch how we take care of bullies,"Heavy said with a smile,"We're going to have to cancel that lesson however Twilight, you'll have to wait till tomorrow."
"Oh... Okay..."Twilight said solemnly.
The trio then turned towards the doors that lead to the play ground as they listened to the bell, they waited until it finally stopped ringing and then began to walk out of the cafeteria as a team. As they walk, Shining and Heavy felt their bodies warming up as they mentally prepared themselves for the fight that was to come.
Heavy, Shining and Twilight now found themselves venturing together to the play ground, Twilight stood behind both colts while Shining Armor and Heavy Weight were side by side and staying in front of her like a wall. After Twilight's little conduct with Dark Shine, they were now going to have to fight the dark colt to defend Twilight and finally teach that bully a lesson.
Heavy felt his body tensing up as he came to terms with the reality of the situation, this was going to be his first actual fight, and it was going to be the first true test of his strength, the thought of all that was making him nervous. He turned and looked to Shining Armor and could see the anticipation in his eyes, the anticipation and nervousness in his body as he could see visible signs of trembling. He then turned to Twilight who had her head hanging low in shame as if she was blaming herself for this whole mess, Heavy smiled to her as she then looked up to him.
"Don't blame yourself for this, it was about time some pony put that thug in his place, who knew it was going to be me and Shining,"Heavy said as he managed to get Twilight to smile slightly,"Oh and nice work with the tray there Twilight. The punk never saw it coming."
"Ha ha ha! Thanks, It was the only thing I could think of that he wouldn't see coming. I guess he really is talentless just like you said!"Twilight said as they approached the playground.
"So... Are you doing alright Shining Armor, you're trembling like a leaf."Heavy pointed out as he got Shining's attention.
"Oh...! Uh...sorry about that, It's just that this is my first real fight. I never thought I would actually have to do this."Shining said as he scratched at his mane.
"Well... You want to be captain right? Well you gotta know when you need to be forceful with ponies like Dark Shine. You may not like it, but It has to be done."Heavy said in a serious tone.
"Right..."Shining said.
It was then that they arrived at the playground and could see many fillies and colts gathering in a circle, they all turned their heads to see the trio approaching and quickly dispersed so they could enter the circle. As the three of them entered the circle, they could see Dark Shine staring them all as he walked side by side as if he was studying them.
"Wow...! I'm surprised you losers actually showed up, so what...?! You both are going to take me on?! What was all that stuff you said about me being the coward Heavy?!"Dark mocked without breaking eye contact.
Suddenly Shining Armor stood forward in front of Heavy and let out a snort, he stared Dark down with fire in his eyes and a sudden will to fight, he turned to Heavy who had raised a brow at his sudden action and smiled confidently.
"Let me take him first...!"Shining said before turning back to Dark.
"Are you sure Shining? Don't get me wrong, Dark Shine doesn't look special, but that doesn't mean you should take him lightly."Heavy informed as Shining looked at Heavy off the corner of his eye.
"Heavy... He tried to hurt my sister... no pony even touches my sister let alone hurt her... NO PONY!"Shining snapped as he gritted his teeth and charged up his horn.
"Stepping up Shining Armor...? Are you trying to make me laugh?"Dark asked as he lit up his horn.
"Shining...?"Twilight said in a soft and worried voice.
"Just stay back Twilight, Shining's about to rip Dark Shine a new one."Heavy warned as they both stepped back to give Shining room.
A small colt had then at that time stepped forward and got between the two combatant, he looked at both of them and could see the fighting spirit burning inside them, their desires to win could not be more stronger.
"Ready...! FIGHT!"The colt shouted as he then jumped away from the colts.
As the words left the colts mouth, Dark Shine instantly went on the attack, his horn blasted a large red beam of magic in a flash of great speed. Shining Armor barely had time to dodge as he rolled out of the way, The attack missed Shining by inches and struck the ground causing a small explosion to go off right behind him. The blast made smoke rise from where it hit and made some unicorns back away from the fight as it was only started to get heated up.
Shining Armor kept his wits about him as he saw Dark Shine charging at him with a fully lit horn of red, Shining lowered his head and charged up his horn as he began to charge as well. Dark Shine roared at the top of his lungs as both colts smashed heads sending a small force of pink and red magic in all directions, all but Heavy and Twilight fell to their flanks from the force as they watched Shining Armor and Dark Shine butting heads and letting sparks of magic fly and scorching the ground.
Twilight was holding onto Heavy in fear for her brother as they watched the colts slam their heads together in rage and desire to see the other beaten. Dark Shine finally head butted Shining Armor away and bucked Shining right in the side of his ribs and knocking him against the swing set. He then growled as he reared up and blasted another magical beam right at Shining Armor. Shining felt the warmth of Dark's magic as he jumped out of the way and allowing the swing set to take the full force of the blast, the beam struck the swing set and instantly made it explode into pieces of red hot magic as parts flew every where.
Shining looked back to the swing set and watched it burn, smoke raised from the wreck as he then stared back at Dark who was once again charging straight at him. Shining narrowed his eyes as he stood on his hind legs and delivered a vicious right hoof across Dark's jaw sending him flying, and slamming against the wall of the school. Dark quickly got up and charged his horn once more for another attack.
Heavy's eyes narrowed watching the entire fight with interest while other ponies started backing away and even screaming at the magical battle. He watched as Dark fired off a magic beam while Shining Armor charged head on into the attack, Shining closed his eyes as he felt the beam hit his horn, he felt the force of the attack stop him from advancing. He quickly turned to Heavy and Twilight, he could see Twilight tearing up and hiding behind Heavy as he felt Dark's magic surrounding him, the magic was burning his cheeks, the wind of the attack stung everything that touched.
"I... I WON'T LOSE...! I AM GOING TO BE A CAPTAIN OF THE ROYAL GUARD! I CANNOT LOSE!"Shining shouted as he poured a massive amount of magic into his horn.
Dark widened his eyes as he watched Shining Armor suddenly began to push his way through his attack, this made Dark nervous as he began putting more magic into his magic attack. The force of the beam stopped Shining cold, but Shining then quickly looked back to his friend and sister before turning back to Dark Shine. He let out a growl as he reared back and made his horn glow brighter than it ever did before, he brought his front hooves back down and suddenly unleashed a massive pink beam of magic and began forcing Dark's attack back.
Heavy raised an eyebrow in interest, but strangely enough he felt completely calm and easy as him and Twilight felt the force of both Shining and Dark Shine's attacks blowing through their manes. The power he was seeing was something to be admired, he watched as Shining's attack grew and became evenly matched with Dark's attack, the beams were smashing together and creating a massive crater beneath them. Fillies and colt all fled from the circle and were finding places to hide from the fight as the intensity became too much for all of them.
Finally Heavy and Twilight widened their eyes as they watched Shining Armor's attack begin to overpower Dark Shine's, the beam began to force Dark Shine back as his hooves grind over the ground. He then saw his red beam being destroyed and immediately released the attack before quickly throwing up a red shield around himself as he felt Shining's attack smash against his shield.
Dark concentrated as hard as he could, but Shining Armor's attack was cracking away at the shield while Dark Shine's hooves continued to drag on the ground. Dark felt the protective walls of his shield shaking and cracking around him as he felt the cruel hoof of defeat infecting his mind, but he knew he couldn't lose. Suddenly he felt the attack smash through his shield and strike him in the chest as the beam sent him flying and crashing into the wall of the school and even cracking the wall behind him as the beam scorched his chest.
Dust flew into his eyes as he coughed and tried to see, he felt himself sliding off the walls of the school and landing on his flank, he finally managed to open his eyes while he rubbed at his burning chest. Dark then suddenly saw the silhouette of a pony charging at him and struggled to get to his hooves, but he was then forced back down as the pony jumped in the air and brought both front hooves down on his chest, he felt himself smash into the ground with great force as he saw that it was indeed Shining Armor who now had him pinned.
"So...*cough*... You actually got me pinned... Big deal."Dark said as he looked into the eyes of a furious Shining Armor.
"Save your tough colt routine for some pony who has any respect or fear for you now! You are nothing now Dark Shine...! JUST GIVE UP...!"Shining Armor yelled as he lifted the dark colt up with his magic.
"You think that just because you managed to knock me down that it means you've won...? I DON'T LOSE TO LOSERS LIKE YOU!"Dark Shine shouted in Shining's face.
"I'd say you already have Dark..."Shining said as he dropped Dark on his flank.
"Oh...! I'm not done with you yet Shining Armor. This fight is only getting started!"Dark Shine warned as he stood back up and suddenly began to glow.
"FINE...! THEN MAYBE THIS WILL END IT!"Shining Armor shouted as he blindly threw a left hoof at Dark Shine.
Suddenly Shining felt his attack stopped cold as Dark Shine gripped his hoof with his own and held it there effortlessly as red magic began to cover his body, he began chuckling before he then suddenly punched Shining Armor directly in the gut. The force of the brutal hoof to the gut knocked all the wind out of Shining Armor before sending him flying at high speeds through the air and making him grind against the ground before coming to a stop at the end of a ten foot scorching trench.
Shining, Twilight, and even Heavy widened their eyes in disbelief as a horrid gasp left Twilight's mouth, Heavy was in disbelief as he watched the Dark colt check himself out. The glow was familiar to Heavy and felt himself trembling with anger as he watch Dark proudly and casually walk towards Shining Armor.
"YOU SNAKE...! HE COPIED OFF MY BODY ENHANCING SPELL!"Heavy shouted while Dark just stood there laughing.
"Ha! Don't you mean my body enhancing spell, at least it's mine now,"Dark said as he levitated Shining Armor up and brutally slammed him face first into the ground,"Though I suppose I should give you credit Heavy! I couldn't have learned this without watching you perfect it yesterday, this was a hay of a spell you came up with! ALL THIS POWER...! IT'S OVERWHELMING!"
With that said, Dark Shine lifted Shining Armor up once more and threw him into a slide, the force of the slam bent the slide from Shining Armor's head smashing against it. Dark laughed as he then brought Shining down on his side and suddenly blasted a large beam of red magic right at the down colt.
Heavy and Twilight looked on in horror as the beam struck Shining Armor forcing small screams of pain from the injured colt as Dark Shine suddenly leaped into the air and brought both front hooves down on Shining's side. The force of the hooves shook the whole play ground as Shining let out a loud shriek of pain. Dark then began unleashing a flurry of hooves to Shining's face and ribs and began laughing as he could hear bones starting to crack and break with each blow he delivered.
Heavy continued to watch in complete disbelief, but he was then interrupted by the sounds of crying, he turned to Twilight and could see that she was crying, tears were flowing as she became horrified by the brutal torment of her brother. Heavy felt cold inside as he watched his friend weeping for her brother, he then turned his head as he heard Shining let out another shriek of pain, he felt like this fight was ripping him apart. Heavy's hooves shook with anger at watching his friend get tormented, he then suddenly saw Shining start to go limp, and that's when he couldn't take it any more.
"no...! NOOOOOOO...!"Heavy shouted as he lit up his horn.
He reared back and suddenly blasted a huge beam of ice blue magic, the attack was massive and burning hot to the touch, Dark Shine only had time to turn his head and cease his torment of Shining Armor before the beam struck him right on his side and blasted him off Shining. The force of the attack made Dark skip like a rock across the ground before slamming completely through the school walls, the walls had then exploded into a cloud of dust and fiery blue flames.
While Heavy kept his sight's focused on the hole that he made, Twilight saw this as an opportunity to rush to her brother's aid. She bravely took off through the ruins of the play ground and made it to Shining Armor's side, but he did not move. Twilight started to panic as she gently placed her hooves on him and did her best to shake Shining in her attempt to wake him up. Thankfully Shining began to stir as an eye opened and began gazing at the innocent little filly before a smile slowly began to stretch across the colt face.
"Twily...? Are you alright...?"Shining asked in a gentle and slow voice.
"I'm fine... P-please be okay Shining... please..."Twilight said as she sobbed against her brother.
"Shh... Everything is going to be okay... I promise..."Shining said in an attempt to calm her sister down.
Suddenly Heavy noticed Dark Shine's eyes peaking out through the dark hole and suddenly focus on Twilight and Shining Armor, It was then that a magical red beam suddenly exploded from the hole and was now heading towards them. Heavy let out a gasp as his body lost all reason and ran towards Shining Armor and Twilight. Fear over took his mind as he blindly raced the magical attack to see who would get to them first.
Twilight and Shining Armor saw the attack coming as the whole playground lit up with red lights, Shining quickly hugged Twilight as they both closed their eyes and braced themselves for the attack. A massive red explosion then went off and blew the entire playground away with massive winds, colts and fillies were even knocked away from their hiding spots and sent flying all over the place. What felt like minutes was really seconds as Shining Armor and Twilight held each other still bracing for an attack that surprisingly never came.
Twilight trembled like a leaf as she slowly opened her eyes and saw dust and smoke from the attack surround them, Shining Armor did the same as he looked around before suddenly seeing the silhouette of a small pony standing right in front of him. They both did their very best to try and see who was in front of them, but the dust proved to be thick and strong, the very air around them strangely felt heavy and almost unable to breath in as the dust began to settle.
It was then that the pony came into view and turned out to be Heavy Weight who was now surrounded in his own glowing ice blue aura and growling as he stared them down while they noticed a small burn mark on his ribs. Twilight gasp as the dust cleared and revealed that Heavy Weight had taken the blow and shielded them from Dark Shine's cowardly attack. Heavy looked furious and pumped as ever as he tried to come to grips with this burning rush of anger and hate that easily made his pain disappear as he let out an ear splitting battle cry completely unfazed by his burned side.
"Why...? Why did you do this for us...? Heavy..."Twilight said as she looked upon his injury with sadness.
"Because... We're... Friends... And I won't let my friends get hurt from monsters like Dark Shine... EVER...!"Heavy shouted as lightning suddenly crashed between him and Dark from out of no where.
He turned and growled loudly as Dark Shine emerged from the hole he was in and began to breath heavily from Heavy's attack, he felt angry at Heavy, but his anger was nothing compared to the rage Heavy felt inside him. Heavy began to feel himself growing stronger as more of his magic began pumping through his body, the things he was about to do to this colt were unimaginable and even scary, but he didn't care.
"DARK SHINE YOU COWARD...! A REAL PONY WOULD NEVER ATTACK THE INNOCENT! I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU!"Heavy shouted while Dark let out a chuckle.
"AND I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU SQUIRT! I GUESS IT'S TIME I PUT THE SON OF MEGA WEIGHT TO SLEEP...! I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT REAL UNICORNS ARE MADE OF!"Dark roared as he prepared to charge.
Heavy instantly began charging at Dark Shine full force and traveling at speeds that were almost unheard of, Dark Shine was shocked by Heavy's sudden burst of power and blindly began charging straight at the colt. Their eyes connected as red and blue magic surrounded both of them, determination and burning wills forged in the back of their minds as they found themselves both covered in veils of magic. The wind began howling incredibly loud as the two sources of magic mixed, small ball shapes of excess magic shot from both colts bodies and blew small holes all over the place as they ran.
Just as they were about to butt heads, Heavy suddenly dropped and slid on his back as he slide under Dark Shine, but not before instantly kicking Dark Shine in the gut with both back hooves and sending him soaring into the air. Heavy continued to grind on his back as he slammed both back hooves against the wall kicking up chunks of cinder block from the wall before using that momentum to launch himself into the air.
Dark Shine flailed like a doll as he panicked and tried to find his way to the ground, he then saw Heavy Weight soaring right towards him and braced himself as he suddenly took a head butt in the jaw. Dark Shine tarted to drop to the ground while hearing Heavy let out another battle cry, but Heavy managed to catch him before he could start falling and delivered a vicious buck to the top of Dark's head. The force of the attack forced Dark Shine to the ground as he crashed to the ground on his side and heard his ribs suddenly crack as he let out a shriek of pain.
Dark quickly opened his eyes while recovering from his injury and could see Heavy Weight descending upon him, he then watched as Heavy suddenly lit up his horn and fired off a massive orb of blue magic. The heat of the orb felt like it was melting the ground around him as he stood up on his shaky legs and managed to raise up a shield. He closed his eyes as the orb suddenly crashed against his shield and began cracking up his shield, in all his time here at school, he never thought he would ever be in a more dire situation. He then let out a sigh as the orb suddenly destroyed his shield and struck Dark Shine before exploding in a massive burst of blue flames and even smaller fragments of magic as they hit the ground and burned small craters into the ground.
Heavy growled in a explosion of uncontrolled anger as he suddenly began to lift massive pieces of land from the ground and make them float in mid air as he narrowed his eyes at where Dark Shine was. The blue flames slowly dissipated to reveal Dark Shine slowly getting back up and trembling as Heavy came to a smooth landing right in front of Dark Shine. His eyes were now glowing completely blue, the magic aura around him made the desolated playground glow in the same color as it blazed and flickered like fire. For the very first time Dark Shine felt scared and began to back away from Heavy while the colt lit up his horn for another attack.
Dark was even about to run away, but was suddenly stopped cold as he felt something constrict around his legs, he looked down and suddenly gasp as he saw his legs completely tied up by blue tentacles that had burst from the ground. He looked back up at Heavy Weight who was still growling uncontrollably as he came to realized that these too were of Heavy Weight's making.
"L-Let me go...!"Dark Shine begged as he struggled against the magical tentacles.
"YOU'RE NOT GOING ANY WHERE! I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU JUST YET!"Heavy roared as he suddenly began charging at Dark Shine with full force.
Heavy then spun the massive sets of rocks he pulled from the ground and began chucking them at Dark Shine. Dark let out a fearful scream as he raised his shield and felt every single massive rock strike his shield and crack away, it the stopped for a moment giving Dark a chance to open his eyes only to see a massive boulder flying straight towards him. He braced himself as the boulder smashed what was left of his shield and cracked him in the forehead, drawing blood before smashing to pieces behind him.
Twilight held onto her brother and watched with astonishment as Heavy then suddenly found himself surrounded once again in a sphere of heavy ice blue magic, he felt himself lift into the air as he actually began to fly towards Dark Shine. Heavy then found himself disappearing into the magic as he then took off in a massive burst of speed and was now in the form of a blue comet. It soared like a speeding bullet and even burned a trench under it as it zero'd in on Dark Shine.
In response, Dark Shine frantically shook off the last attack and shot another blast of red magic with full force directly at the comet, but as it made contact with the comet, it immediately found itself overwhelmed as the attack smash through the attack effortlessly. Dark Shine let out a loud scream as the comet suddenly struck him with massive force in the gut and crashed with him into the ground sending another large tremor through the entire playground.
Twilight held on for dear life as she watched colts and fillies jump from their hiding spots and crash back into them, she looked to the spot where she last saw Dark Shine and waited for the dust to clear. As the dust did clear, she then saw Heavy Weight delivering his own flurry of viscous and magically empowered hooves, Dark Shine was crying and was barely conscious as each hard hit bruised and bloodied up his face. He felt as if he couldn't move any more and slowly began to fall unconscious, but that didn't stop Heavy from hitting the colt in his uncontrolled state of rage.
"DON'T YOU EVER ATTACK MY FRIENDS! AND DON'T EVER STEAL MY SPELLS YOU STUPID! WORTHLESS...! PATHETIC...! COWARD!"Heavy screamed with each blow he dealt to the unconscious colt.
Heavy felt himself attacking with no purpose of stopping, his fury was too strong and it was driving him insane, the hate he had for this colt had finally boiled over and was now being unleashed with each blow. He grunted and growled as he aimlessly kept up his assault, he didn't even notice what was starting to appear on the side of his flank.
"GET HIM HEAVY...!"Twilight shouted out in her own blind fury for Dark Shine.
Heavy Weight was more than willing to complied, he even started to think that he couldn't stop even if he wanted to, but before he could finish Dark Shine off. A scream suddenly came before he was tackled right off the dark colt.
"HEAVY WEIGHT STOP...! THAT'S ENOUGH!"Shouted the familiar voice of his mother.
Heavy had then found himself scooped off the Dark colt and suddenly felt himself being restrained and pulled away from the wrecked colt, he struggled and tried to fight the grip he was in before he was suddenly surrounded in a dark blue aura. He began kicking and growling as he was slowly turned around and was met with the sad and scared face of his mother Golden Heat. He let out a gasp as he looked into her eyes and could see the fear that was deep within her, he began taking steady breathes as his magic began to slowly disappear, he saw his magic slightly burning his mother's cheeks as tears began to sting his eyes.
"M-Mom...? I-is that you...?"Heavy said as he felt himself starting to sob.
"Shh... It's okay Heavy... Mommy's here... Everything is going to be okay,"Golden Heart said in a more calm tone as she held her son in a loving embrace,"Are you alright Heavy?"
"I... I'm sorry... He was bullying my friends... H-he even tried to attack my friend and his sister when he was already down, I-i just couldn't watch any more. It made me so angry...!"Heavy stuttered as he cried into his mother's chest.
"I know... You have your father's temper, but you only did what you felt was right, that is what made you great unicorn and a wonderful little warrior. You protected your friends without hesitation and without a second thought, no matter what happens... I'm so proud of you."Golden Heart said as she rubbed at his back to give him comfort.
"WHAT IN THE NAME OF CELESTIA HAPPENED HERE...?!"Shouted the voice of Cloverstep as her and a staff of about twenty different teachers appeared.
They looked around the playground and were overwhelmed by the destruction that the battle had brought, fillies and colts were picking themselves up from each crater and broken piece of equipment they could find. The staff looked to the pulverized Dark Shine and the injured Shining Armor before trailing their sights to Heavy Weight and began glaring at him before Twilight Sparkle suddenly jumped in the middle of the conflict.
"WAIT...! I know what you're all thinking, this wasn't Heavy Weight's fault. Dark Shine started all this, he kept bullying every pony and finally my big brother and Heavy stood up to him, they then began to fight and Dark Shine was hurting my brother,"Twilight frantically explained with tears in her eyes,"Heavy saved me and my brother from Dark Shine and he did everything he could do, he finally beat Dark Shine, but Dark Shine was the one who destroyed the place, please don't punish Heavy...!"
"Do you have proof of this Ms Sparkle?!"Questioned her own kindergarten teacher.
"N-No..."Twilight replied with shame.
"Then we have no choice, but to hold this little monster for destroying half our school!"A mare yelled.
"B-but... I... Monster?"Heavy said as his heart hurt from that name.
"Miss Golden Heart. You and your son are going to have to come with me to the principle's office."Cloverstep said in a gentle tone as she led the way for them.
Cloverstep held Heavy in her arms as she slowly got up and walked with Cloverstep while ignoring the angry faces of so many teachers, as she passed by Twilight, she couldn't help but turn to the filly and smile with gratitude for standing up for them. She then turned back and followed Cloverstep as they ventured towards the main doors of the school, as they entered the school, they didn't notice that Twilight had followed him and watched them enter the school and catching one last glimpse of Heavy before disappearing inside.
"Heavy Weight... Thank you... so...much, my best friend..."Twilight said before running back to the destroyed playground to check on Shining Armor.
With Heavy Weight in her arms while he shook with fear at what he had done. Golden Heart opened the doors to the school and was immediately greeted by the sight of seeing unicorns trying to clean up the rubble and the broken walls of the school. Lockers had appeared to have been destroyed, some knocked over by the giant hole that was made in the wall. Some others even looked slightly singed from the magic that was used. Some unicorn colts and fillies had even joined in to help the staff clean up what they could, and were even crying over the loss of the school's play ground.
All of the staff and students then suddenly dropped what they were doing and began glaring at Golden Heart as she remained right by Cloverstep's side. She could hear them all talking under their breathe about her son. She kept Heavy close to her so she could block out the cold voices she was hearing.
"How did principle Vice Grip let a monster into the school...?"A colt whispered.
"Now what are we suppose to do for fun, the entire play ground is ruined thanks to that monster. I hope he gets expelled..."A filly also whispered out.
"Oh I am certain that this abomination will be dealt with most viciously. It would serve that little monster right for ruining the school...!"A stallion teacher conversed with other staff members.
That word "monster" kept echoing in the back of Heavy Weight's mind, he felt sad, a little bit insulted, but mainly angry, he did not like being called this word and proved it as he pull his head away from his mother and glared at all the other unicorns. He growled at them as they all froze, but Golden Heart only shushed him and turned him back around to look at her as they met Ms Cloverstep by the office door.
"Don't listen to them Heavy. They don't understand what you were doing when this all happened, they are scared now that they see what you can truly do, and believe me. They may be afraid of you now, but they have great respect for you as well, no matter how much they wish to deny it."Golden Heart explained as Ms Cloverstep got their attention.
"Come with me now Golden Heart. You and Heavy can wait right inside and wait until the principle is ready for you."Cloverstep said as she opened the door for them.
"Thank you Cloverstep, and it's very nice to see you after all this time."Golden Heart said with a smile as they walked into the office.
"It's nice to see you too Golden Heart. Oh I remember back when you and you and Mega Weight were just a colt and filly and you had the silly filly crush on him till you both got your cutie marks. It's amazing how much you have grown..."Cloverstep gossiped as Golden Heart took a seat in a chair with Heavy by her side.
"Yes... I suppose it is a bit amazing. I remember when you were just that beautiful mare assisting our last teacher, we certainly a hoof full for you and him weren't we?"Golden Heart joked before giving a slight chuckle.
"Indeed you were, now just wait here for a bit and principle Vice Grip will see you soon."Cloverstep said as she walked to the door to leave.
"Thank you Ms Cloverstep."Golden Heart said as Cloverstep left the office.
Golden Heart was now left alone with Heavy still in her arms, and the office secretary quietly doing paper work behind her desk. It was quiet and peaceful, non of those rude ponies could be heard now as she looked down to her worried son. She let out a sigh as she gently brushed a hoof through her son's mane. He knew that he had messed up, and they both knew that he could be expelled for what has happened here.
Golden Heart just shook the troublesome thoughts aside as she then suddenly noticed out the corner of her eye, what appeared to be an interesting looking cutie mark on Heavy's flank. The cutie mark appeared to be a mark of an ice blue heart inside a matching blue six pointed star, the heart also appeared to have a sword stuck through it and pointing down ward through it. Golden Heart chuckled as she got Heavy's attention.
"What is it mom?"Heavy asked.
"Oh nothing... I just couldn't help but admire that wonderful cutie mark you have on your flank."Golden Heart said with a sly smile.
"What do you mean? I don't have a cutie mark,"Heavy said before suddenly looking at his flank and seeing the cutie mark himself,"Whoa...! I... I have cutie mark! I actually have a cutie mark!"
Heavy Weight suddenly jumped out of Golden Heart's arms and landed on the floor as he looked at his new cutie mark, but he could not figure out what it meant, but he didn't care. All that suddenly mattered was that he had earned his very own cutie mark. Suddenly their moment was interrupted by the door to the office swinging open. It was then that Twilight Sparkle had rushed in and looked around until she had found Heavy and his mother sitting quietly. She felt scared and greatly worried for her friend as she quickly approached Golden Heart.
"Mrs Golden Heart! please don't be angry with Heavy. It was my fault, I'm the one who started that fight with Dark Shine in the cafeteria, Heavy and Shining were just protecting me. I don't want him to get in trouble because of me!"Twilight frantically said.
"It's quite alright Twilight. I understand Heavy's reasoning for what he did, it was very brave of him to stand up and protect you from that bully, but I fear that the principle will not see things our way."Golden Heart explained as she looked at the back door that lead to the principles office.
"Well...! I'll make her see it, I won't let her expel Heavy...! I,"Twilight continued on before she was approached by Heavy and immediately hugged him,"Oh Heavy...! I'm so sorry you're in trouble because of me."
"It's...fine Twilight, I wasn't about to let that coward hurt you, so... How is Shining Armor?"Heavy asked while Twilight continued hugging him.
"The nurse said that he was going to be alright, it was just some bruising and his ribs were softened up. He just managed to avoid them being broken, but Dark Shine had to be taken away to the nearest hospital. He was in pretty bad shape."Twilight explained before finally parting from her hug with Heavy.
"I could care less about Dark Shine, that coward can rot for all I care. It's my friends that concern me."Heavy said while Twilight smiled and blushed a bit at his response.
"Thanks... You know... I couldn't help but notice your cutie mark, I can't believe you got yours already...!"Twilight said as she stared at the cutie mark on Heavy's flank.
"Yeah, you like it? I didn't even notice it until mom brought it up,"Heavy said as he looked back at it with confusion,"I still can't figure out what it means though."
"I think I can clarify what it means,"Golden Heart said as she walked over and pointed it out for her son,"The sword represents your talent for fighting and defending, the star is for your talent in magic, and that heart... It means that yours is strong, and when you fight... You fight with your heart."
"Wow..."Both Twilight and Heavy said in unison and fascination.
Suddenly they were all interrupted by a great big flash that appeared to emanate from behind the back door that lead to the principles office. Curiosity struck them as they then began to hear a conversation occurring between two ponies from behind the door. Finally curiosity got the best of both Heavy and Golden Heart rushed to the door while Twilight chose to stay behind. They quietly made it to the door and were then hearing the voices of a stern mare, and a very elegant mare appearing to be arguing over something.
"I did not expect to see you here already princess, is there something wrong?"The stern mare asked.
"No there is nothing wrong, but I'm guessing that anything but nothing must have happened here. The play ground looks like an absolute mess...!"The elegant voice sounded out.
"Yes well... A little nuisance and his friend had turned the whole play ground into a battle field and badly injured one of our top students, but not to fear. This little monster will find himself expelled faster than you can say elements...!"The stern one said with pride.
"That is exactly what I came here for, this little nuisance of yours is anything but a nuisance. He happens to be a very talented colt by the looks of the magic he performed and he happens to be the son of my former captain of the royal guard."The elegant one explained.
"Ah yes I heard about what happen to him, that would explain this abominations power, but why on Equestria's good soil would give praise to a colt that has demolished half of your school?"The stern one questioned.
"Believe me principle Vice Grip, I couldn't be angry with this colt or his mother if I tried. They have become the most important thing to me and I do not appreciate you insulting him. He is one of your school students after all,"The elegant one said to the one known as Vice Grip.
"Well he will not be a student for long when I'm done with him!"Vice Grip said fiercely.
"You will not be dealing with him at all, I have a much better plan in mind for him, I have waited for six years for this day, and now the time has come... You may both come in now...!"The elegant one suddenly called out to Heavy and Golden Heart.
They looked at each other with shock that this mare knew they were listening in on them and were feeling a bit hesitant about entering, but they managed to swallow their fear and slowly open the door. They slowly ventured into the principles office and closed the door behind them only to be greeted with the unbelievable sight of none other than princess Celestia herself.
Her elegant rainbow mane flowed in the wind as her and a mare looked to them, while the princess smiled with delight, the mare just frowned at them as Golden Heart took a seat while Heavy just stood next to her.
"I will talk with you later about how you treat your students, but for now... It's good to finally meet you Golden Heart, it is an honor to meet the wife of my beloved captain of the royal guard."The princess said to the mother.
"It... It is an honor to meet you as well princess Celestia, Mega Weight has told me all about you. I see he was not exaggerating about you in the least."Golden Heart said in disbelief as Celestia then looked to Heavy.
"Oh my goodness... And this must be Heavy Weight, It is a real honor to finally meet the son of Mega Weight, and after what you did at the play ground. There is no mistaking the fact that you must be quite the talented little unicorn."Celestia said while Heavy looked upon her in astonishment.
"Y-yes princess, are you here to expel me for what i did to the school?"Heavy asked with his head low before it was then raised by the gentle hoof of Celestia.
"No... I have something else in mind for you Heavy Weight."Celestia said with a gentle smile.
"What...?! But princess Celestia this child just wrecked half the school, you are not honestly going to let this little monst-"The principle snapped before getting cut off by a stern look from the princess.
"I will personally pay for the damages to the school, It is after all my school,"Celestia said before turning back to Heavy,"My dearest little friend, today in your battle with that colt, you have shown me that you have a strong heart that lead you to defend your friends rather than pursue blind victory. With it, you have displayed the most magical talent that has ever been displayed in the history. a pony such as yourself is above this school, and I feel it is not adequate to help you grow as a fine unicorn."
"So... What are you saying princess?"Heavy asked nervously.
"Well... I wanted to make you an offer Heavy, how would you like to leave this school and become my newest personal student?"Celestia offered as Every pony's eyes went big.
"WHAT!"Every pony but Celestia shouted in confusion.
"Yes... I'm certain that your father would have wanted this for you... Heavy Weight... It would be an honor and a privilege to take you under my wing and teach you personally everything you can know about magic. Do you wish to become my student?"Celestia asked with anticipation.
"Yes...! This is amazing! Of course I'll be your student!"Heavy exclaimed as he ran to his mother in excitement.
"Then it is settled!"Celestia said completely elated with Heavy's answer.
"This is... A miracle... This is absolutely unbelievable...!"Golden Heart Said in growing excitement and disbelief.
"You don't say..."The principle said in a grouchy tone.
"I promise you, with my help and guidance, I'm certain that you will grow to do great things Heavy. I will be sure to give you the best learning experience you could ever hope for, and by the end. You may even grow to surpass your father one day."Celestia said while containing her own excitement.
"Thank you so much princess...! I promise to try my very best to be the greatest, that is my dream, and I will make it a reality!"Heavy happily stated as he ran around the room in excitement.
"Alright Heavy, calm down now son...!"Golden Heart said with a chuckle.
"Well now... This is all good to know, and the best part is that you will also be getting your very own sibling student when you start tomorrow,"Celestia chimed in as she watched the mother and son hug each other with joy,"Now then... Heavy? Would be kind enough wait outside and give me a moment to speak with your mother?"
"Of course princess, this is so cool!"Heavy said as he quickly rushed out of the office.
He quickly exited the principles office and closed the door behind him before jumping with joy and excitement at where he was now going. This felt like a dream com true that he never wanted to end, he was now a student of the princess herself. He kept jumping around till he got tired and went to go sit down before getting yet another pleasing sight, he now saw Twilight Sparkle sharing a hug with Shining Armor who had a few bandages on the side of his body and an ice pack wrapped around his head. Heavy gasped with joy as he quickly ran to his friends, they both noticed him and mimicked the same action before rushing to Heavy with worried looks and confusion.
"Hey Shining, are you doing alright?"Heavy asked while gesturing to the bandages.
"Oh yeah, I'll be fine, these injuries don't even hurt, but boy did you put the hurting on Dark Shine. I heard he had to get carted off to a hospital...!"Shining Armor said as they all shared a laugh.
"Yeah, serves him right for trying to hurt my friends,"Heavy said with a proud smile.
"Yeah... Thanks for saving my sister, I don't know what I would have done if something were to happen to her. I can't thank you enough."Shining said as he suddenly raised a hoof and pointed it at Heavy.
"No problem..."Heavy said as he put his hoof against Shining's and shared a solid bro hoof with each other.
Twilight watched as a friendship had forged between the two colts. It had warmed her heart to see her brother making a friend that she also considered a friend, and as the two colts finally parted hooves, she then stepped forward to ask a very important question.
"So... How much trouble are you in? Are they really going to expel you?"Twilight asked nervously.
"Pfffft... They wish, you will not believe what just happened to me in there. Princess Celestia herself showed up and she had seen the battle we had with Dark Shine, and she offered me to become her new personal student, and I said yes!"Heavy explained excitedly as shock stretched across their faces.
"No...way! That is so awesome! You're actually going to be a student of the princess herself, not just any pony can become a student of princess Celestia...!"Shining Armor said in a thoroughly impressed voice.
"That sounds amazing, so... You get to go to a castle and learn from the princess herself. I guess that means you won't be coming here any more huh?"Twilight said in a solemn tone while Heavy gave her an honest smile.
"I guess I am, but maybe if you apply yourself more. Maybe you will become Celestia's student one of these days, and that would make us sibling students."Heavy said as Twilight then smiled at him with confidence.
"Yeah... So where's your mom?"Twilight asked.
"She's in the principles office talking with the princess."Heavy said as they all turned to the door and waited patiently.
Meanwhile back in the principle's office, Golden Heart was pacing back and forth with a big smile on her face, she felt so excited about this miraculous aftermath that she could barely contain herself. The princess indulged in her excitement and gave her all the time she needed to come to grips with this good news while principle Vice Grip just sat at her desk in disbelief at what the princess had just done.
"Oh my gosh this is such a miracle! This is just stupendous! I cannot thank you enough for this princess!"Golden Heart said as she couldn't help but hug Celestia.
"It was not a problem at all Golden Heart, like I said. I have been looking forward to this day since Heavy was first born."Celestia said as she indulged in Golden Heart's hug.
"Thank you so much, I promise you will see great things from him, I'm certain he will lead to do great things under your guidance I'm sure of it,"Golden Heart said as she parted from the hug and began panting heavily,"I just can't believe this, If Mega Weight were here he would be so proud-"
Suddenly before Golden Heart could say anything else, she spooked both Celestia and Vice Grip by letting out a hard cough and suddenly spewed out a large amount of blood from her mouth before dropping to her knees.
"Golden Heart...!"Celestia exclaimed as she rushed over to Golden's aid while Vice looked on in confusion.
"Oh... I'm sorry about that,"Golden Heart said as she got up with Celestia's help and wiped the blood from her mouth,"I just caught a little something nasty a while back, it's nothing to worry about."
"Golden Heart... I know about the little ailment you have come down with. Doctor Hoover sent me a letter describing the situation you are in."Celestia grimly said with a frown.
"I... I don't want him to know... If Heavy were to find out about this, he would be so heart broken... Please you have to understand... I'm all he has left. I just don't know what to do..."Golden Heart said in a shaky voice as tears stung her eyes.
"I understand... And I want you to know that you have my support for any medical needs you require, and... If the worse should come for you. I would be more than happy to take him into my home,"Celestia said with a small smile.
"What...? You would be willing to care for my son?"Golden Heart questioned out of disbelief.
"Of course... It is because of your husband that i still live to this day. The least I can do is take care of your son if the worse should come for you."Celestia replied.
"The... The doctor said that the worse is most likely outcome for me at this rate. I can't imagine Heavy going on without me."Golden Heart said as a tear escape her eye and streamed down her cheek.
"It's alright Golden Heart, I promise to show him all the love and support he will need to grow."Celestia said as she wiped away the tear from Golden Hearts cheek.
"Please... Make sure that he knows that he is loved, and... Make sure he grows into the great unicorn he dreams of becoming..."Golden Heart said as she did her best to put on a small smile.
"Of course, I will make all of it a reality, just as he will make his dream a reality,"Celestia said with a warm smile.
"Thank you... Now then... Could I perhaps go to be with my son? I need to spend every last moment I have with him."Golden Heart said.
"Of course... It is about time I departed to the castle and inform Sunset Shimmer that she has a new sibling student coming tomorrow,"Celestia said as Golden Heart began to leave.
Celestia chose to follow her out. Opening and then closing the door behind them to leave principle Vice Grip now hanging her head low in shame at the behavior she showed during this visit. They both walked together and smiled as they saw Heavy Weight, Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle and laughing and talking happily to each other. Celestia could feel the friendship that was forging between them as they approached the group.
The minute the princess and mother approached them, they all turned and all gazed upon the princess with fascination and overwhelming feelings except for Heavy, Twilight and Shining Armor immediately rushed over to the princess and bowed in respect for the princess. Celestia found it kind and even a bit adorable as she let out a happy chuckle while Heavy Weight had rushed and was now sharing a hug with his mother.
"Rise young students,"Celestia said as the siblings gradually rose, it was then that Celestia notice Twilight and gave her a peculiar look,"Hmm... How interesting, you must be Heavy's friends."
"Yes princess, I'm Twilight Sparkle, and... This is my brother Shining Armor."Twilight introduced while Celestia continued to give them an interesting look.
"Very interesting... I have a feeling I will be seeing both you again in time."Celestia said as she walked away and disappeared in a flash of golden light.
"Huh...? What do you think that meant?"Twilight asked her brother.
"I have no idea?"Shining said in confusion before they both turned to Heavy.
Heavy and his mother were currently still hugging each other happily now that Heavy was going to be a student of the princess. This was truly a miracle for both of them. They nuzzled a bit before Golden Heart fixed her grip and looked directly at her son.
"Come on Heavy, lets go home. You have another big day starting tomorrow."Golden Heart said as she started walking to the door with Heavy in her arms.
Twilight and Shining watched in happiness, but also in a bit of sadness as Heavy and his mom left the office and were departing for their home, Twilight had began to think about what he said and how she would possibly be able to see Heavy again. The idea of never seeing her friend again then began to eat away at her until she finally had enough, she then suddenly ran after them with Shining Armor right behind her as they burst through the office door. She looked around and saw Heavy and his mother at the edge of the schools exit, she quickly took off again as fast as she could until she was only three feet from them before calling out to Heavy.
"Heavy...! I will become the next student of Celestia! From now on, you and I are going to be rivals, and some day... I will become the greatest unicorn in Equestria as well...!"Twilight stated proudly as she saw Heavy poke his head out and smile at her as he then waved her off.
Twilight waved back at Heavy as Shining finally caught up to her and began waving good bye to Heavy as well, they watched as their friend pass through the doors before they closed behind them, leaving the siblings to always remember their friend.
Meanwhile outside of the school. Golden Heart and Heavy were slowly departing for home now happier and more full of hope than they had ever thought possible. Heavy smiled at his mother as she smiled at him. What was awaiting both of them tomorrow was certainly a wonder, but for now they just decided to enjoy today. For it had ended more miraculously than they had ever hoped.
"I did it mom...! I really did it. I'm going to be a student of Celestia. Now I know I'm going to become the greatest unicorn in Equestria."Heavy said as he looked to the sky.
"You already are Heavy... You already are..."Golden Heart said as they enjoyed their walk home.
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.
