A seapony story, what else is there to it.

S'up, I'm Ray Henderson, well that's who I used to be called. Great family, great friends, but had a boring, dull life. That changed forever when I took the long train ride home from work one day. There just me and a strange man in white suit on the car that day, and he offered me the chance to go to Equestria. Would any brony turn down a chance to be able to go to Equestria? Heck no they wont, but now I regret the snarky answer I gave him. I hope I'm not biting more than I can chew. Set in the world of CGotG, created by Rust,and Expanded greatly by BlackWing and Others. Give a hoof to Avorin my Co-Author for making this story possible. Approved by Cloud_Surfer

'S'up everypony, before I get to the part where I nearly kill myself for a friend who can't even defend himself. I'll just rewind back to the beginning of how this all started.'

It was Wednesday afternoon, I was preparing to go back home from a hard days work...yet again.

"Finally! It's over..." I said to myself. My muscles aching and sore from pushing carts back into the store all day long.By the way I'm a cart attendant at target.

'God, I hate working by myself with carts! My co-workers need to quit being so stubborn about going outside, and help me get the job done faster!' I thought to myself.

Walking through the store to the get the front entrance of target. Wanting to get the hell out of the store fast, a co-worker calls me out for attention.

"Ray!" he said, trying to catch up with me.

"Yes?" I answer. 'What now...' not really wanting to stop right now, but I don’t like to be rude either. I stopped, and decided I might as well hear my co-worker out.

"Amy was wondering, if you could work as cashier next Tuesday?" he said. I wanted to say no, but I never had anything to do after work except play games, draw some random pencil artwork, and hang with my neighborhood friends. Plus I could get some extra cash, while I was at it.

"Um...yeah, sure I'll be there." I said, looking at my awesome blue digital watch to see what time it was. Not wanting to miss my subway train.

"Great! thanks Ray, I'll go tell Amy to put you up for next Tuesday. Have a good night." he smiled before I walked away.

I walked out of target's front doors, and started jogging down the side of the building. It was getting dark outside when I passed a couple of alleys, and made a left turn. Trying my best not to wear myself out too soon, but ended picking up speed when I saw the traffic lane light in my direction was about to turn red.

'Oh no no no nonononono! I'm not gonna miss my train ride home again!' I thought in a frustrated panic. Remembering the last time I missed the train, waiting an hour and a half for a train to come back around, trying not to get harassed by a gross homeless guy at night. But the worst part about it was, he hasn't been caught yet. I cringed at the memory, and starting sprinting to beat the traffic light to prevent that happening again.

While I was trying desperately to get the train station on the other side of the traffic lane, there was a man wearing a white suit walking in the same direction as I was. Getting close before passing him.

"EXCUSE ME!!" I yelled at him, so he wouldn't get bumped. Surprisingly though, he walked over the side a little. Having a slowmo moment, getting a good look at his face while I was rushing, he looked like he was about in his mid-thirties, a black slicked back hair style, Italian, and the only weird part about him was...his eyes. I never thought the day would happen, when i see someone who has heterochromia. His right eye was jet black, and the other ice blue.

I snapped out of it when he gave a friendly wave. I waved back.Turning what's in front of me, seeing that I was on already on the other side of the car crowded street.

'Yes! now to the train.' I thought to myself.I jumped to do a stairway rail slide, but then i saw one thing that made me afraid of going to train stations by myself.

It was the SAME gross homo-homeless man from before, smiling creepily, and he was waiting...for ME. Warning, Warning! Imminent unwanted attention approaching in 00:03 seconds!! Everything started to blur when I saw him.

I jumped.

He reaches for me.

He fails.

Using his face as a stepping tool, and perfectly landing. I looked back for a moment to see what to the homeless guy. He had both hands on his face to grasp the feeling of a boot that landed on his face.

Reaching for the train ticket in my pocket. "GOT IT!" I said out loud. Now running, lungs burning, cold sweat coming down my face, but i still had faith that i can escape from that scary menace.

*DING-DONG*

"ATTENTION, LAST CALL BEFORE DEPARTING. ATTENTION, LAST CALL BEFORE DEPARTING." The intercom said.

'FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAA!!!!!!!' Screaming in my mind.

I went for the empty train cart the in back. I didn't like being squished up against other people, cause I didn't like people in my personal space. At the right side my view, I saw the last person getting on, and from the very corner of my right eye, a crazy homeless coming after me fast, followed by two cops chasing him. Wait a minute...

*Loading*

*Loading*

*Loading*

Done.

[Please insert major freak out Disc now]

"UUAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! RAAAPPE!!!" I screamed like bloody murder, before giving myself total motivation of why I should get on this train, and hoping it get the attention of a police officer. I jumped through the closest set of train doors before they closed. The homeless failed get in, and was apprehended by the two cops .

"Whew" I slumped down on the floor, but getting up fast, knowing what's on subway floors.

*DIING-DONG!!* The train started to move.

'FINALLY! He gets justice.' I looked around in the train car, it seemed I was in the third to last car of the train. I saw five to six people sitting down, nobody even looked at the exhaustion on my face.

'Well, I'm glad to see people still CARE for others...' And with that mental sarcasm, I slowly walked towards the very back of the train.

When I got into last train cart, I saw a familiar face from earlier.


Take a wild guess who...

Chapter 1 - Ray: Enter

View Online

When I entered the last train cart, I saw the same white suit, heterochromia, black haired itailian from before I reached the train station.

'How the fudging hell, he get here before me?' I thought confusingly. Nobody else was in the last, except the sleeping italian, and me.He was sleeping casually laided back on the bench. I sat down a row away across from him.

"Did you have a nice day, Ray?" said the Italian voice.

"Huh?" was all I can conjure up at the moment of shock that he knew my name.

"Well?" He said, waiting for my answer.

"Um...it was-s kinda good...excluding the fact that I was LITERALY chased by a crazed homo-homeless, but how'd you know my name?" I said still in confusion.

"homo... homeless?" opening his cool looking eyes at me in curiosity.

"Uh...a homeless dude who had apparently started taking a liking to me, and became my stalker/creeper..." I had explained to him, wondering if he'll my question.

He pondered about it, and laughed at thought of it. "It's not funny, man! Have you even seen the motherfucker!" I said frustratedly.

"Oh I've seen the nasty figlio di puttana!" he said before he continued laughing at me.

"You suck!" I yelled at him.

His laughter died down a bit before trying to talk to me. "Oioioi, look, heh heh, I'm sorry, mio collega brony" he said with a smile on his face.

'Brony? Ok, who is this motherfudgin stalker' now looking at him with a serious look.

"What if I told you can GO to Equestria?" he said still smiling.

"And what if I say I don't believe you?..." I said, 'Is this mothafudger Seriously? I may be a brony, but I'm not that gullible!' Looking at him with unamused face.

"Oh, but I can-n" he said with a grin.

"Prove it then." thats right, i'm calling your bluff.

"Fine, then what do MLP species do you what to be?" he asked.

'this motherfudging...' getting irratiated. "Make me a seapony for all I care, I just want to see you TRY to prove me wrong." I said with spite.

"Alright then, moi collega brony, look into my left eye..." closing his right eye, so I focus on one, instead of both. Which I didnt have a problem with from the moment I saw him.

'Ok, this guy's on something.' Crossing my arms as I look into his left eye in amusement.

"Ok, one, who are you? Two, How did you know my name? Three, How you...know...I'm a..... brooooony...." my vision started to spin, and losing consciousness.

Getting up from my seat steadily and wobbling, I grab the train pole for balance. "W-what...did you....do..to me...?..." trying my best to stay conscious long enough to know why, but to no avail, I could't hear his answer before i keeled over onto the floor, giving into unconsciousness and darkness.

And that was last time, I've been on earth.




<-------------------->


‘Uuuuugh, my he-ad. The fudge just happened to me?' I Tried to move my arms but it was to no avail.

'What the? I can't move my bucking arms! And more importantly, why can't I open my eyes?'
I Tried to force my eyelids open, but nothing happened.

'BUCK! Does anything else work!' Now trying everything I that can move, but only to find out that my neck can move.

'Okay at least that works, but...why does feel like I'm sinking down?' I started to hear noises only made underwater.

'Aw buck! Did he just threw my brony ass in the ocean!?' Now I started freaking out and trying to rethink how I got knocked out.

‘Waitwaitwait, calm down first.’ Taking deep breaths of-’Hold on, how am I breathing underwater?’ I tried to open my eyes again, and this time they slowly started to open.

‘Whoa’ looking at a coral reef, and both my sides to see more of them, glowing radiantly.

“Coo-l” I said, noticing I could speak underwater.

So I can see, talk, and breath underwater, but can’t I MOVE? ‘One more time!’ starting with my lower bod.

“The fudge happened to my legs!” I stated out loud, looking down my waist I saw it. “Naw...naw...my legs, he h-he...” Starring my new lower body, in shock that my strong capable leg were now turned into a fish tail.

“AW COME ON! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET ON LAND IF I DON’T EVEN HAVE ANY LEGS TO STAND UP ON!!” I yelled, looking at my arms to see if they changed as well, and oh goody they had.”AND I CAN’T OPEN DOORS!” Still starring at my new and not so improved arms.

‘Great, just great’ I thought to myself before examining my new body in greater detail.

The upper part of my body was pony, while the other half was some kind of fish. I was light cyan color, my arms looked like Big Mac’s arms but thinner. I then started feeling around my face, when I got to my forehead I felt some kind of pointy objec. . . holy crap I have A HORN.

‘YES, FUDGIN YES! I have a horn, that definitely solves my door opening problem.’ My first task was to learn...magic, second task get a mirror.

“Alright, alright, alright lets see what this horn can do” And with that said, rubbing my han-hooves together, and concentrated.

I tried my best to be focused, but nothing happened. ‘Come on Ray you can do this! Make magic dammit!’ Nothing still happened.

“Maybe I’ll try another time.” Rubbing the back of my head, putting off task one aside...for now, and moving onto task two finding a mirro-scratch that finding out where the buck I am.


To be continued..., also giving big thanks to Avorin, without him, this story WOULD have been confusing. Next I'll tell you where he is.

“AAGH!! How do I use this stupid thing!?” Starting to get angry about not being able to use my fish-half to swim.

Alright calm down, Ray. There’s no point getting frustrated over this, I can learn...again’ I groaned at the thought of it. ‘Okay think how dolphin’s do it' I began to move my tail in an up and down motion.

It worked, but it took a lot to get use to it. I was Glad that my leg muscles strength had passed over to my new lower bod.

Hours passed, as I practiced swimming through the coral reef. ‘I guess swimming like a dolphin isn’t all that bad.’ I guess after being turned into a seapony, of course it would come naturally. I looked at my fish-tail again to see what ocean species I was crossed with.
It looked like I was half-Dolphin or something.

I finished my deTAILing my lower half, now wondering what time it was.

Looking up above me was the ocean surface, it looked a dim orange color.

“Did I just swim about half a day? Damn...”I swam upwards in order to see where I was.

What the...’ Now this something new, Everything I saw was the same animation as the show, but I had no idea that MLP had an outside world around it.

“Since when did Equestria have a rainforest?” I looked around more to see if there is anything else. “Ok, there’s a beach, and...some kind of island?” It looked to be miles off of where I was, I’m so not gonna try swimming that far today.

My best chances are...follow the coast line up, follow the beach line to see where that takes me, go to the rainforest, or go to that unknown island.’ I pondered on where to go for few seconds before I finally made a decision

“follow the Coast line up it is.” I started swimming to towards the beach, and followed the peaceful shorelines before exiting towards the edge of the rainforest.



----------A few agonizing swimming hours later----------




“UUUUUuuuuuugh! How big is this WORLD!” Swimming slowly under a few feet underwater so no person, pony or THING sees me. “make me a seapony” was probably the worst thing I could have said to that Italian.

Huh?’ I turned to see to what presence I felt behind me, but couldn’t due to the dark night atmosphere around, but felt as though, I was being watched.

“HMMMmmmm...” Taking in the dark night waters atmosphere, I keep swimming with precaution in mind.

It was getting too dark to see, if there was anything living in these waters though, then i’m gonna need somewhere safe to sleep. My stomach will have to endure until I find out what seaponies can eat.

“Hah! There!” Seeing a patch of seaweed covering a small den.’That should keep me safe for the night’ Going toward the patch, making sure that nothing was living in it. Inside the den was what looked like a bed of some sort.

“I hope whatever lives here doesn’t anymore...” I looked around for anything one more time before I went to sleep in it.




--------------------------------------------One Nap Later-------------------------------------------------




The sunlight hitting my face, caused me to wake up early.

“No-o....somepony turn off the sun...”Grabbing some seaweed to cover my face. I was never much of an early bird person, so I sleep late a lot.

“But its the afternoon.”Said an unfamiliar voice.

“Yeah well I’m still tired.”I grunted. wait a minute...unfamiliar voice?

I shot my eyes open to see who’s watching me in my sleep, everything was blurry for moment until I saw it.

Oh glob’ There it was a seapony, looking right at me.

“Cool! You got two different colored eyes!” the Smiling face said at me with amazement. I was too flabbergasted to reply back.

Apparently, it sounded like a girl, but looked a little tomboyish if anything.”Um...What are you doing?” I manage to utter finally.

“Chilling” She said while lying down beside me.

“Thats what I mean, Why are you chilling beside me?” I said before getting up.

”Well it is MY away camp for when I’m not at home” she said plainly.

“Why do you need an away camp from home anyways?” Now I’m curious.

“To get supplies for the shops at home, duh” Not breaking eye contact with me for a second.

“And does HOME have a name?” I said Getting a little irritated not knowing it.

“Well it’s home.” she said Trying to hide what seemed to be her trollface, but that was to no avail.

“Ya start’en ta get on my darn nerves! Tell me the NA-ME!” She giggled.

“you’re funny!” It’s official, she irritates me already.

This trolling seapony...’ I facepa-hoofed.

“Did I say you had to two different colored eyes already? Because I think they’re cool.” Wait...what’d she say?

“Hold on could you repeat what you just said just now?” Finally sinking in of what she had said.

“You. Have. Two. Different. Colored.Eyes.And.It’s.Cool ” She said still not breaking eye contact.

“You got a mirror, or something?” I said asking as nicely as I could.

“Yeah, I found one nearby Gear Grotto.” she pointed to a bag near the seaweed bed, but she didn’t get it.

“Ya mind getting it for me?” I said hoping she’ll break eye contact, and she did smilingly. She grabbed the bag, rummaged through it and picked up a small mirror shard from her bag.

Aw crap eye contact. . .again.’She ha-dammit fins me the mirror.

“Um...thanks.”Trying to ignore the fact she’s staring A LOT. My attention drawn towards the mirrors reflection.

I must be dreaming if I see a seapony with Heterochromia’ I thought Examining my eyes closely.

I don’t know if I can hate that Italian bastard, or love’em’ I always wanted to have two different colored eyes. My right was jet-black, while my left was crimson red.

“Ha! I feel like Kakashi Hatake.”Did I say that out loud?

“Who?” She asks.

“Eeyup, I just did’ I thought. Uh...nothing, so where’s that HOME you was talking about earlier?” Please don’t ask again.

“Oh! It’s north from here, but I guess you’ve never been there before, have you?” I nodded.

“Don’t worry! I’ll take you there, and you can meet my friends.” I give her back the shard, and she stuffs it back in her bag.

I gotta bad feeling about this but what choice do i have? I sighed.

“Lead the way” She smiles, and goes on swimming ahead.

Heh. Her being in my grill, I’m finally be able to get a better look at her’ I thought giving her a once over.

She looks like a seapony from the G1 series, body color was light purplish blue, Black hair with white and grey stripes in it. She was basically a seahorse with fin arms, but What caught my attention that it appears she doesn’t have a cutie mark anywhere on her body.

Do seaponies even get cutie marks?’ Lost in my deep ponder, I wasn’t paying attention to where we’re going.‘Do they even know what cutie marks are?’ I continued my thoughts about this topic.

“. . .rom?” did she just ask me something? 'Maybe I should ask the elder, or mayor of this HOME we talked about.’ “. . .me?” she must be asking about me.

“Huh, what?” I said Snapping back to reality.

“I asked you earlier on where were you from, but you didn’t answer, is something wrong?” She looked worried when I didn’t answer her, better let her I’m okay.

“Uh...nah I’m fine just thinking about stuff, does your village have a mayor, or an elder, or something?” Her worried face lightened up a little.

“Um...yeah we do. He’s the old seapony in the over decorated coral hut. You can't miss it, in fact, nopony could miss it even if they wanted to.” She plainly said.

“If they wanted to? Whaddya mean by that?” Confused by this new fact.

“You’ll find out what I mean when we get there.” she looked irritated by the thought of it.

We passed by some coral reefs, and started up seeing the ocean floor shoot up above the water. ‘We’re by an island? And the village is underneath it? Okay that’s kinda cool’ I finished my thought before we reached a cove of some sort.

“You live in there?” I asked.

“Yeah, it’s just up ahead. Come on, and meet everypony!” She’s so excited, she went on without me.

This place better be good’ I thought as I swam inside the cove.

It got darker as I swam further in. Looking back at the entrance, seeing it was getting farther away from my view. I looked forward again, and saw a faint light blue light ahead. Swimming faster to see what a seapony village would look like, I reached the end of the cove tunnel.

“Wh-oa” gazing at the wondrous sight laid out before me.

“Welcome home.” She said smiling.

“Are you gonna tell me the name this time?” She giggled again.

“Well are you gonna tell me the name this time?” She giggled once again.

Okay, since when have I been this funny?!’ I thought.

“This is where I live. it’s Home.” I facehoofed.

“Let me guess the name of this village IS Home, right?” I said while my rage level rises.

“Yup you got it!” She said, now breaking into laughter.

“I wanna know, who named this damn village Home.” Raising my hoof in raging justice.

“Yeah, yeah, don’t get your tail in a bunch, because of it.” She said smiling at my new discovery.

“Hmph! Still!” I said turning my attention towards the village again.

‘Hmm...Home does seem like a nice place though’ I thought before taking another gander at the village.

It was Blue crystals that illuminated everything, I saw an absolutely huge crystal at the very top of the ceiling of the cave radiating a warm feeling over the village. The main material of the buildings was exactly what I had thought it was going to be coral, although unexpectedly they’d used wood for the shops on the main street. and then i saw saw where they’d gotten the wood from, there was a sunken pirate ship in the cave. I really don’t know how I missed that, but a few yards away it was THE most prominent out of all the buildings before me.

“Is that...the elder’s place?” I said pointing my hoof at it.

“The one, and only...” She said with irritation.

“Is something wrong, miss.....” I was NOW asking for her name, since I forgotten to when we met...in the seaweed bed.

“Hm? Oh! Its Wandering Gaze, but everypony here calls me Gaze for short.” She said before swimming towards Home.

“Come on slow poke! Come meet everypony!” Again leaving me in the dust...or something different in my case. . .Bubbles?

I started to swim closer to the village, and as I swam closer, I was met with the eyes of curious seaponies Swimming past a couple of houses, trying to find Gaze along the way to the Elder’s house.

huh?’ It felt as though I was being followed, I turned to see, but everyone was very carefully not looking at me. I continued. ‘There's that feeling again.’ As worry came over me that something was up, I looked back as fast as I could to see what it was that was bugging me. I saw a couple of bubble trails coming from the some of the seaponies that were female. I had a serious Jaws moment coming on me real fast from behind it felt.

I looked into what seemed to be a store and saw a mirror on display, and. . .hey that’s the same mirror Gaze let me use earlier! In it I saw what seemed to be five or six seapony mares following me.

“Can I HELP you with something?”I said not looking back this time. I heard whispers before I turned for the third time to see who's been stalking me.

This time they stayed behind, and they were definitely in my personal space.

“Where are you from?” Said a seapony with a fish tail.
“What’s your name? Said a seahorse looking pony.
“I like your mane!” Exclaimed one with what looked to be octopuss for a tail.
“You have pretty eyes!” Another obviously told me.
“Are you single?” A seapony asked with a dolphin tail like mine.
“Do you have a fillyfriend?” And there’s one asking if I was available.

WHOA! I can’t understand them when they’re like this!’ I thought being cornered to the store’s display glass. Thinking of a best possible solution to this situation.

“SShushshshshshushshhhhhh!” I managed to hush the seamares around me, all of them looking bright eyed, and a few looked at me as though they wanted take to. . .best not to finish that thought just now. ‘*Gulp*, I better watch what I say when answering them...’ I took a deep breath before answering their questions.

“Ladies...one at time, please. I didn’t catch all of the questions that you’ve given me, so I’m gonna pick one of you, and answer your question then move on from there.” As I said that they started to act like little kids in elementary school that have a question for their teacher.

“Um...You! With the blue eyes! your Question?” The one I called out was an looked like an Otco pony.

“How come you're eyes have two different colors?” Of course she’d ask about my eyes it was. . . predictable.

“Uh. . .they. . .that is. . .I was born with them this was this way, I’ve had many looks about them though, but they don’t bother me much.” I finished the question, and some began to whisper to each other, while others raised their hooves up to get my attention.

“Uh...You there! With the glasses!” This time it was a seahorse pony with glasses.

“Where are you from?” She said. Great I’m gonna be lyin my light blue ass off with these questions aren’t I!?

“From a far away oce~an.” I enjoyed remaining anonymous to others, gives them something to think about. Now that I finished her, we continued this impromptu interview about me.

“Okay...You! Go!” Pointing to one of the ones that asked If I was single.

“Um...are you...uhmm” She blushed a lot trying to get her question out.

“Am I available? Why yes, yes I am.” Ooh bad answer, now almost all of them are lookin at me with lust in their eyes.

Oh fudge, I messed up big time!’ I thought looking around for a way to get out of this fudging jam.

One started to get closer, then the rest followed slowly. ‘Buck! I’m not ready to be in a Playmare yet! And they are not gonna be GENTLE!’ Thinking of my last “good” moments on Earth.

Sweet Celestia! Have mercy on me!! The end is nigh!’ I thought as they closed in on me.

“STOP!” The crowd of seaponies stopped, trembling at the tone in that voice.

I saw the crowd begin to split apart towards me, apparently she was coming this way.

“Move!” The voice said with absolute authority, and it most definitely sounded feminine.

After that, i saw a light yellow seapony, dark green hair, with a dolphin half like mine, but she had what looked like extra fins on her lower back. She leaned down extending a hoof out.

“You alright?” She asked me.

“Y-yeah...um...thanks” Her presence easing the scary atmosphere of the crazy mares. ‘That was far too close for comfort.’ I thought before grabbing the hoof to help myself up.

“No problem, just doing my job. Mister....” Asking me for my name.

“Well, its..ooooww!” A sharp headache came over me.

'Don’t tell her yo old name fu, this is your chance to start with a new name, a new life and a new hot bod.’

‘What the hel-l?’ Confused as I was, I tried not to show it on my face.

'How about I help you with your last name, hmmmm.....

Who are y-you?’ The seapony who was helping me was getting a worried look on her face.

'Well isn’t that dandy? You mean you don’t know me, bro? I’m you of course.

Ok, I think being alone a lot is starting to take its toll n-now’ I couldn’t hear what the seapony was saying to me and my vision was starting to blur.

'Whoa! I better make this quick then, don’t want ya to pass out yet. hmmm....how about Sull’oceano? Sounds good, yes? Oh! and before I go, go to the Elder, he MIGHT be able to help you with your little magic problem.

WAIT! What magic problem?’ The sharp headache started to fade away, and my vision returned to me.

'Hehehee, wouldn’t you like to know, hehehe the voice said leaving me with a chuckle and a headache.

“What the hell...was that about?” I mumbled to myself.

“HEY!” She shouted right in my ear.

“AAHH!!” I freaked out from the sudden loud noise. “Y-yeah?” I managed to say with my now damaged ear drum.

“Are you alright? That was some real pain on your face there, want me to escort you to the medic?” She asked nicely.

“Nah, I’ll be fine, but a SAFE escort to the elders place would be nice.” Not wanting a doctor checking me up and stuff, and having a nurse EXAMINE me. . . .well forget it!

“Why would YOU want to go there?!” She said to me, giving a look that definitely said. “ Are you outta yo mind fu!?”

“What’s the big deal about the elder anyway?” I asked, getting confused by this fact mentioned by Gaze.

“He’s...he’s just...Agh! I guess it’s better if you find out for yourself.” She said leading the way.

Ok, now I’m sure I don’t want to go, but I’ve got to find out what HE meant about my magic...’ I thought trying to keep up with the seapony.

“So about your name? What was it before you got interrupted by that moment you had?” She asked.

What is with these seaponies and names *sigh*.....Sull’oceano, eh? Hmmm...how about...’ I reached a decision about my new name.

“It’s Ceren. Ceren Sull’oceano.” I said. ‘Hmmm...yeah...thats got a nice ring to it.’ I thought.

“Ceren, eh? Thats a nice name.” She said smiling at me, before we reached the Elder’s
ship like house. “Well here we are...” She said, stopping at the built in double doors.

“huh? You’re not coming in with me?” I asked wondering why she stopped at the doors.

“I’ve got my reasons NOT to go inside there.” She cringed at what she apparently was remembering something.

“Ok, now you making me scared.” I said worried.

“Just go in there you scaredy catfish.” She pushed me to the doorway.

I looked at what seems to be a doorbell, and I tugged the the rope once. The doors opened as soon as i rang the bell.

*Gulp* I entered the Elder’s house.


The story is going rather nicely, ja? He's got a second personality, but I won't tell ya when we name him,

Chapter 4 - Masquerade

View Online

Just as I entered, it occurred to me to ask the seapony who helped get me away from the crazy mares for her name. *SLAM!* The doors however, had other plans as they slammed themselves shut before I even got the chance to ask.

The atmosphere was kinda like a dead pirate ship with ghosts telling me to leave. It was dark, soon after my entrance I noticed there were crystals embedded within the walls of the ship that lit up in a purple-colored light as I swam by; it didn’t help ease my tension at all. I swimmed in closer to see a purple seapony with glasses sitting behind a stereo-typical hotel’s front desk.

There wasn’t much to note inside besides, her and the wooden floor boards.

“Uh...hello?” I said, this in what felt like the scared luigi voice from Luigi’s Mansion.

“Hm? Oh! hello the-re.” She stopped at whatever it was she doing to keep her that busy to not hear the front door slam. “Is there so-mething I can help you, Sweetie~?” she said batting her eyes at me.

I got closer to answer her question, when I did, I saw she was an otco pony with blue eyes.

“See something you li-ke, Sweetie~?” She said, knowing I was looking her over.

“I-I...uh..no I wanted to know if the elder was here?”I said, trying not to make eye contact with her. She grinned.

“Well, of course he’s here, Sweetie~.” She said looking at my shyness.

“Um...my name isn’t “Sweetie.” It’s Ceren” I corrected her.

“I know.” She said as she adjusted her glasses, there was a minute of silence after that.

“So...can I see the elder?”I said, wondering when she’ll stop looking at me with those eyes like that.

“If thats what you want, dearie.” She said getting up from the chair, opening the door to the second floor.

“Right this way~.” She showed me the way.

“Mares first.”I said, and I’m going to be on my best behavior this time.

“My! Aren’t you a gentlecolt.” She said, stating the obvious.

She entered through first likeI said, and I followed. the next room had the same feeling as downstairs, but it had an even stronger feeling of dread to it. The next room seemed to contain rows of benches for people or ponies to row at. I noticed more crystals embedded in the ceiling as we passed them.

“So...w-what’s your name?” I asked, trying to eliminate said feeling of dread.

“I’m Dream Charmer, care to be cha-rmed?” She asked me with another steamy look.

“Um...nice to meet you and no, I don’t...”I said, plainly.

“Well, you’re no fun, are you!” She said before going through a hole in the ceiling.

I rolled my eyes at that statement and followed her. She then stopped at a door that looked like it led to the Captain’s quarters.

“He’s just behind this door, Dearie” She said.

Ok thats getting annoying...’ I thought. “Yeah...thanks, Dream”I said, before attempting to go in, but was stopped by her.

“Remember,..if there’s an-ything else you need, you know where to get me” she said lustfully to me.

“But...what if I come and you’re not there?” I asked a stupid “what IF” question.

She grabbed my face making me look her in the eyes. “Oh I’ll be there...” She said before letting go.

“Ch-ao.” she said before going back to the front counter.

I looked back to the door, shaking off the image she just gave me. I reached out to the doorknob, but it magically opened by itself.

“Enter.” The old voice said.

I hesitated, but did as I was told. The door shut slowly, accentuating the bad vibes with a long creak. The crystals in the room were red and I saw an old seapony sitting at another desk. I swimmed closer to get a look at him, with all the red crystals in the room, I couldn’t really tell what color he was. He seemed to have a long whitish-grey beard, his eyebrows were bushy enough to cover his eyes. He had many trophies laid out on the desk, implying that he was quite the pony back in his prime.

“I know why you’re here.” he said. ‘Is he some kind of psychic?’

“You do? Then...you know what I’m about ask?”I said, confused and a bit worried by his knowledge.

“Yes and you’re not normal seapony are you?” He asked.

Well, this is creepy.’ I thought to myself.

“Yes. It is.” He apparently replied to my thoughts.

“WHAT?!”I said, panicked.

“As for that magic problem, I CAN fix that...” He said.

“But what’s wrong with my magic?” I manage to say.

“Hmmmm...” He pondered.

“Well?” I said, getting a little impatient to know the answer.

“Have you come in contact with any mystic beings, lately?” He asked

“Uuuuhh....” I looked away, remembering that Italian bastard who put me in this situation. “Yeeeah?” I answered.

“Well... he seems to be the one who put a magic seal on you before you got here...I’m honestly amazed you got here without a scratch.” he said. ‘what’s that suppose ta mean?’ I thought.

“It means I expected you to be mangled and in the medic’s office, but seeing that you are here unharmed means mare luck likes you.” he said.

“Oh glob, not her toooo...”I said, getting irritated by this and remembering the trouble it’s caused me and thinking of the trouble that’s most likely going to follow me.

“I cannot guarantee what may happen to you, but at least you’ll be able to use magic...” He said as his horn began to glow white.

“WAIT!! Is it gonna hurt?” I asked before he did it.

“No.” He said, his horn glowing brighter than before. “Its going to hurt after!” He said. ‘WHAT?!?’ no point of screaming if he can read my mind. His horn burning bright rainbow colors, blinding me. The bright light began to dim down a bit before I opened my eyes.

“And that’s it.” He said before the crystals turned white, The old seapony was dark blue-green and his bottom half was similar to a fish of some kind.

“That’s it?” I asked wondering. he nodded.

FINALLY!!! I can speak to you without causing you to pass out!

What the?! Hey, can you hear him!’ I thought, the elder looked at me funny.

“Hear what?” The elder said confused. I facehoofed at this new problem of mine.

It’s pointless, dude. Only YOU can hear me, nopony else

“It’s nothin elder, thought I heard something.”I said, trying not to show my irritation on my face.

Oh that’s harsh man and I’m right here too.

“Wait, didn’t you mention that I was gonn-” An overwhelming pain shot through my head, disabling things started to get woozy, my ability to speak, blurring my vision. I saw Dream come in the room, but I couldn’t hear what the elder was telling her to do. My world was spinning into darkness.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Uugh, my bucking head...again!’ I awoke in some dark place, my eyes were open, but my world was dark.

And this is what a hangover feels like.

ugh...but I never drink alcohol, so what makes you think you have?

. . .

Yeah, thats what I thought

Damn, outdone by a noob...

Dude, don’t start. You’re just as a noob as I am...’ Wherever I was, probably my subconsciousness or something. I decided to wake up from this weird fantasy of mine, everything lit up blinding me into the white void.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“. ….h....up.” said a familiar feminine voice.

“hhhm...what hap-”I said, but stopped at the surprising view I saw; two purple-pink eyes were within my personal space. “AH! Gaze!?” I flipped out of the seaweed bed.

“Hi, Cer~en!” She said Cheerfully, floating over the bed that I was sleeping on.

Ah, Gaze, may your tomboyish cheerful attitude be GREATLY awarded one day.

“Gaze, why were you floating on top of me?” I asked trying to ignore my “other” me’s voice.

“Well, protecting you from what could possibly have been a rape scene!” She glared at somepony across the room. I floated up to see who.

“Wandie, you know I won’t do th~at.” Dream said sitting the chair octopus style, adjusting her glasses.

Dream.....dead sexy octopony

HUSH!’ I had to hush my “other” me, so I could hear the mares.

“Yes, you would! You had a grin as big as my smile, when I passed the Academy finals! You were so gonna do it to him when you brought him here! ” said the light-yellow seapony.

“Stormy, plea-se. Enough of these....accusations you two always say” Dream said very coyly.

Dude! They’re arguing over yo innocence!

So help me luna! That I don’t figure out a way to hit you with my ring ha-Dammit!’ My frustration grew at this epic fail.

You mad we got no hands.

Shaddup’ Where’s my ring hand, when I need it.

Score one for meee!

I said shaddup already!’ The girls were still at it, due to my absence in conversation. I better break this up now and get some magic practice done.

“Hey, Ceren? What do you think?” Gaze asked. Apparently I missed something, but whatever, as long as I do my magic training.

“Huh? Oh? Yeah, sure whatever.”I said, still coming out of my thoughts. Gaze and Storm gave me a look, then Gaze rushed to me with a hug and Storm blushed excessively where she floated.

“My! You are more open minded then I thought!” Dream said with a sultry grin.

Umm what did I just agree to?’ I thought majorly confused, while Gaze is hugging me.

You agreed on them sharing you.

Oh glob WHAT!?

That’s for the Kelso burn ya gave me earlier, ya Jackwaggon!

Dammit!’ Trying with all my best efforts not commit mental murder.

“Well I best be hitin th’ole dusty tr-ail.”I said, trying to pry Gaze off me.

“And WHERE d-oo you think you’re going, hm?” Dream asked curiously amused by my reaction.

“Um...to do some magic practice?” I answer sheepishly.

“Well if it’s magic practice you need help with, I’ll be Gla~d to help.” Dream said with a cat whose corned the mouse look on her face.

“N-nah I think got it c-covered” I said, knowing what could come from this.

“Oh? And how will you fend all of them off?” Dream pointed her hoof out the window like hole, I looked only to see a couple of female seaponies blending in like all assassin creed style.

She’s got a point, y’know

It pains me to say this to YOU, but I have to agree on that’ I’d reached my decision on this.

“Fine, but no funny business!” I told Dream.

“Oh? What funny business do you ever mean?” An angelic look falling over her face. Everypony in the room looking right back at her.

Oh, I like her.

Shut yo dirty trap and keep yo THOUGHTS outta my mind.’ I thought threatened my oth-God! He needs a name now.

“*Sigh* Alright, lets get this over with.” I said, wanting to get to my magic training as soon as possible. “And Gaze?” She looked up at me.

“Yes, Ceren?” She answered.

“Please let go of me...” I said, but she didn’t.

“But you’re so soft and smooth.” She rubs on my stomach.

“Dream, Storm, please help me get her off.” I asked them. Dream had a twinkle in her eye, but Storm stopped her.

“I’LL help him.” Storm said swimming over to me.

“Oh? I thought you were too shy to let me rub you, but you want to rub him that badly?” Dream’s coyness knows no bounds.

“S-shut up!” Storm blushed, while trying to get Gaze off me. Untill the most disruptively loud thing occured, my stomach, I had totally forgotten to feed myself. Its was enough to make Gaze loosen up because of it.

“Gotcha!” Storm yelled having finally removed the other seapony from my middle.

“Oh come on!” Gaze shouted and pouted.

“Um...ya’ll got anything to eat around here?” I asked everypony.

“We have a Cafe down by the fire reed, not far from here.” Storm said.

“Well, lets get a move on, because I’m starved!” I said, rubbing my hungry tummy.

“Yes. It has been quite some time now, since we’ve eaten” Dream said.

“Lets go!” Gaze said, I’m keeping my distance for the moment. “Oh I’m not gonna hug you again...yet

“What was that?” I ask, wanting to know what Gaze mumbled.

“Noth~ing.” She said smiling, before swimming out the room first.

I watched Gaze as she swam out of the room. ‘O-kay’ I thought. We all exited the Medical reef. Dream, Storm and Gaze took the lead to show me the way, but I felt a death glare go down my spine.

“Hey are there any other GUYS here besides me and the elder?” I asked, maybe there’s a jealous guy nearby.

“Well, we are a little short on males around here, which is why the others girls went crazy for you, Dearie” Dream explained Smiling looking back at me.

“Ok its not “dearie, or sweetie,” its Ceren.” I’m correcting her again! seriously Dream?

“Ok, Ho~ney.” She said coyly.

that's really getting annoying.” I mumbled. Dream’s ears perked.

“What was that, Honey?” Dream said with a smilingly creepy attitude. The other two cringed, at her tone.

“N-nothing! Just wondering where are the “other” guys are? hehheh.” I answered nervously. I still had that death glare chill down my spine, I looked only to see other seaponies I wasn’t with staring at me. ‘Ok, seriously! who's hating on me?!’ my paranoia was seriously leveling up at this thought.

“We’re here, hm? is something wrong Ceren?” Storm asked.

“hmmm...its probably everypony staring me and giving me the You-do-this-with-me or something, I get very paranoid sometimes.” I saw the cafe, it was almost like a cafe back in my old world.

The Cafe was of course made of the same coral material as most of the buildings in ‘town’, but the rest had some type of wooden structure. Probably parts from some ship or another, the doors had a wooden frame and windows. Despite not looking busy today, it still felt slightly cramped. I entered first.

I looked at the counter, they were getting some food ready for the next customer’s, there were a couple of otco ponies working behind the counter. Chopping and slicing some type of food that I couldn’t see.

I looked to my sides to see more starring seaponies sitting down on Coral tables and wooden chairs. ‘I seriously need a mirror again, because this is ridiculous’ I tried to ignore to the stares, but it was to no avail.

They’re checking ya out.

I swam up to the counter and began to examine their inventory. My eyes widened upon seeing that they were chopping up fish, not that I had a problem with fish. ‘Dayum I thought seaponies were gonna be like regular ponies, but boy was I WRONG!’ I thought before calming myself after seeing part fish eating fish. The octoponies finally got done chopping and brought their attention to me.

“Oh! a new customer! What can we help you with, Sir?” The Brown octopony said.

“Um...do ya’ll have anything with shrimp?” I asked.

“Yes we do!” The Dark blue octopony said.

“Then I’ll have yer best one!”I said, cheerfully, wanting to know what they would serve me.

“We’ll call you when its ready and for your ladies?” I turned to them.

“Ya’ll order something, while I find us a place to sit.”I said, to them, happily nodded.

I went to see if there were any tables nearby the windows, I always liked looking out the window, it may not the same here as the vastness of the skies, But I still liked it though. Luckily, I found table nearby one. ‘Yes. It must be my lucky da-’ then some grey seapony guy comes in and takes the table for himself and there was only enough for four ponies.

“Um...excuse me could you move to another table, please?” I asked nicely, but he looked quite angry.

“And why would I move for a minnow like you?” he said in a rude tone.

Minnow?’ I thought confused.

Minnow is basically a small fry, that’s what he called to you

“Uh...so my friends and I can enjoy the view?”I said, not liking his attitude.

“Tell ya what why don’t you swim off and find an eel while the ladies sit with a real stallion.” He said with a grin on his face.

Well that wasn’t very nice, I’m starting to NOT like this pony’s attitude

“How bout YOU go find an eel while I sit here, with a nice view, with my friends to keep me company.” I said, starting to feel the raising tension in the room.

“Careful you don’t lose your temper there, don’t wanna go messing the sharks.” He said.

“What sharks? All I see here is a guppie who couldn’t even keep up with its school.”

Aw snap, its gonna go down, never thought you’d start a fight

Hey I didn’t start this, he did.’ I thought quickly, after seeing the grey seapony starting to get mad.

“Like a clownfish like you wouldn’t even know a shark if he saw one!”

“Oh I’ve seen one, but you ever gotten out of your cave at all!?”I retorted in an irritated tone. This guy is seriously hating on me, why? Electricity started to spark between us.

Oh nah you didnt!

Well he’s starting to pi-’ My thoughts were interrupted by the grey seapony hitting me across the face his hoof.

STRIFE!

“THE HELL’S YOUR PROBLEM!?” I shouted at him. This guy has now officially pissed me off!

“YOU’RE my problem!” he said, with his horn glowing a Dark orange, I then felt a force moving me towards the window, making me crash into it. I flailed a bit before recoiling myself for balance.

“Dude! What. The hell!” I said.

“What makes you so special to her? You couldn’t even reflect my magic!” He said before his horn glowed once again. This time slamming me on the coral wall of house, his horn glowed again, but I felt no force, though, I looked to see what he was planning.

“Oh shit!” I dodged an incoming magic blast, instead of me, it connected to the house. Leaving a hole where I’d been moments before. ‘That could have been me...’ I zoned out at the thought of it.

But it wasn’t, now pay attention!

I snapped out of my trance, I saw another blast coming my way, I dodge gain He really got frustrated and started firing multiple magic blasts at me.

Ceren! Don’t let him fire at the village!

Damn! he’s right, don't want any casualties on the village folk! I tried making a magical force shield, but it was to no avail.

“GOD GLOBBIT! How come its not workin!” I was getting frustrated by this not going my way.

A light purple force shield blocked the incoming fire, I looked to see it was Dream saving my hide and the villages too.

“GREY!” Dream shouted at the grey seapony. I saw a quick wisp of bubbles pass me, but i couldn’t see who it was.

“D-Dream..I-!” He was interrupted by a tailslap to the back of his head by Storm.

Storm and Dream began to beat the tar out of the not-so-friendly fish. Gaze swam up to beside me.

Daaaaaang

Daaaaaang

“Hehheh...remind me to never piss off Storm or Dream.” I nervously said to Gaze. She had small laugh.

“Storm can be a little overprotective at times and Dream...well it’s probably best if you ask about that guy to her, but I don't know if she’ll tell you yet, I think.” Gaze explained, I looked back to Grey to see that he was no longer being pummeled, he was getting scolded by Dream instead. Storm came my way, pulling out a seaweed bag out of nowhere. ‘Where did that bag come from?

“Whew! Are you okay, Ceren? I was surprised to see you get smashed through that window, what happened?” She asked me.

“I’m fine. This is why I need to practice my magic, so I’ll be able to help stop jerks like that!” I said, Storm hoofed me the seaweed bag. I looked inside and found my meal for tonight. I saw Dream swimming over to where I was almost blasted to pieces, fixing the hole that Grey caused with some kind of reconstruction magic.

“I wonder if I’ll be as good with magic as Dream one day?”

“Don’t worry, I know for sure Dream will teach you some useful magic.” Storm said with a smile. “As long as she keeps her tentacles to herself” She mumbled something I couldn't hear.

“I hope so, I need all the magic can get.” I said, wait where am I gonna sleep? “Does this village have a place I can stay at for the night?” I asked.

“No, we don’t, sorry, Ceren. ” Storm said sadly.

“Oh! You can stay with me for the night!” Gaze offered me happily.

Alr-ight, we’re gonna be warm tonight.

Do you have an OFF switch to that perverted mouth of yours.

You mean YOUR perverted mouth, I’m your subconscious remember

“So you can hug him all night? I think not Gaze.” Dream said from right behind me making me jump a little. “Oh sorry, honey, did I scare you? How about you stay at my pla-”

“NO!” Storm interrupted Dream, I looked at her funny.

AW! But I want to!

“Oookay, then I can stay over at your place, Storm?” I asked her, her face turned beet red.

“I-I-I dunno C-Ceren...” Storm seem to be thinking hard on this, better ask about the elder’s place.

“Storm it’s ok, I’ll just ask the elder if I can stay with him for the night.” I told them.

“NO!” They all shouted at once. ‘WHAT is wrong with the elder? He seemed like a cool dude to me.’ I thought.

He must have some bad rumors on his plate

“Soooo. . .then I guess I’ll be staying at your house, since everypony rejects the elder idea. I guess I’ll be sleeping on your couch then Storm.” I said, but she seemed pretty flushed to the idea of it.

“Well...I don’t want you sleeping at Dream’s or the Elder’s house and Dream objects to Gaze’s house, s-so I g-guess it’s okay.” She said not making eye contact with me being blushed.

And you say I’M perverted, who knows what goes on in that head of hers.

Dude, come on, leave her alone...’ I thought. “So...I guess it’s settled then, so...yeah.” I said. The others didn’t look disappointed at all by the decision that I made. ‘Whatever I’m gonna eat my food when I get to her house and get my training tomorrow instead.’ The crystals seemed darker than before. ‘Are the crystals connected to the sun and moon?’ I looked curiously at the crystals, but I didn’t bother trying to figure it out right now.

“Well, this is goodnight for now, you have some swe~et dreams, Honey.” Dream said with glare on her glasses, I saw her practically grinning when she swimmed home.

“I better get going to, I...uh...left my heat stone on! Yeah, gotta turn those off! Bye.” Gaze said in a rush and swimmed off fast.

“Oookay, well they seem to be in a rush. So Storm, ya ready to show me the way?” I asked Storm.

“Y-yes, Its just a couple houses down from the elder’s.” She said leading the way, why do I have the feeling that Gaze and Storm are up to something?

I followed her to her house, it was more of an enforced structure than the others ‘Is that a look-out?’ I looked at her, confused.

“I always make sure that Home is safe from harm.” Storm said proudly.

“But there’s no way you can do it ALLL by yourself you must have some help, or something.”

“Of course, we have the Cove keepers and the Chief to also look out for Home.”

“But I didn’t see them when I came in.” I looked at her confused.

“Thats because you were with Gaze if you had been alone you would have seen them, I assure you and if you’d been a threat you would never have seen anything else.” She said.

“Sooo...they like ninja fish or something?” I questioned.

“Ninja?” She laughed. “Whatever those are, no, they’re expert guards who trained in the same academy as I did.” She explained.

We approached the door and went in. As sturdy the lookout house looked on the outside, it was a pretty sweet deep sea crib from what i’ve ever seen.

“Whoa! Who knew living in a lookout would this awesome!”I said, brightly eyeing the interior her house.

The interior seemed to be made of the same coral and wood I’d seen around the rest of the town ‘how do they keep the wood from rotting? and are those books!?’ I thought looking at them.

I was gonna ask, but my stomach had other plans for me.

“Man, I’ve haven’t eaten since I’ve got here. Where’s the dining room table at?” I asked wanting a place to sit for my food and I.

“It’s down the hall your left.”

“Thanks I’ll be eating my delicious meal of shrimp then.” I said.

“And I’ll be in my lookout if you need anything.” She said before heading up the stairs.

I passed by some kind of big couch, made up of some kind of sea sponge along my way to the dining room. ‘I guess thats where I sleep tonight.’ I when I got to the dining room I saw that the chairs were made of the same kind of sponge as the couch and the table was made wood, ‘how do they keep the wood intact down here? Nevermind, must eat now.’ I thought digging into my shrimp which were surprisingly still warm.

Now too tired to call Storm down and too lazy to go get her. I swam groggily over to the large couch and lay down on it. ‘Ugh, today was the roughest day I’ve ever had in my LIFE,....but also the most interesting by far.’ I began to drift off into a deep sleep.

Chapter 5 - The First Test...

View Online

I floated in the dark for a moment before seeing another figure in this endless dream. The figure came into my field of vision,. . .it looked like me?!

S’up

‘Glob...it’s you...’

‘What? Still not happy to see me, bro? Well too bad cause we’re gonna be mental roomies until you get yo mind straight.’

‘My mind IS straight! It’s the fact that I have an “inner” mind that is a perverted bastard who doesn’t know when to shut up!’

‘I’m your innermost subconscious here, so just...’He puts on shades. ‘Deal with it.’

I facehoofed at his idiocy. ‘Well you’re a subconscious that acts without my control, so you need a name, so....how about...Altum.’

‘Altum?’

‘It means deep in latin.’

‘Hmmm...not bad, not bad, I like it!’

‘Good, cause I’m gonna call ya that from now on! huh?’ I noticed from behind “Altum” that there was some kind of light. ‘Hey Altum, what’s that?’ I pointed my hoof to it. As we both begin to float towards it.

‘It looks like...a future vision...’ He looked at it more closely.

‘Future vision? You mean Foresight? Hey! That looks like Dream, and the others, but what are they swimming away from so fast?’ I watched the scene before me as confused as Altum seemed next to me. I saw next was few crystals that lit ‘Home’ were falling causing, damage to the houses.

‘The hell is happening?’ The vision now showed me with my left eye glowing red like Black Rock Shooter.

‘Whoa! Now I dig that eye glowing thing goin on’ Altum said excitedly.

‘Maybe it’s because of the training we’re about to do soon.’ I said wondering about us getting stronger. The Foresight vision vanished when we saw our self start doing some awesome magic.

‘Hey! I was watching that!’ He said disappointedly.

‘I wonder what was causing those tremors for Home like that.’ I said worried of the future.

‘Ah don’t worry about it too much, I mean if we’re gonna be that epic in the future, then we’ll just take it on like it’s nothin’ he said getting a pair of shades out of nowhere and putting them on.

‘Hey, how’d you do that?’

‘Dumbass! This is OUR dream world! We can do whatever we want!’ He said before poofing up Storm, Gaze, and Dream hanging off of him. ‘Later noob’ He said floating away, leaving me to think about the visions that I just saw.

‘I hope I can beat whatever it is that caused those tremors...’ My vision clearing, going white.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The light from the crystals of Home woke me by shining in my face. ‘Nngh! Nooo! Not again!’ I tried to shift over so the light wasn’t hitting my face, but it was to no avail. ‘What the?’ I tried again, but this time I felt some multiple shifts on my body. I opened my eye’s to see whats on me, my morning blur vision was clearing, I began to see. . . ‘WHAT THE FUUUAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!’ It was Gaze again sleeping on my chest with some kind of purple tentacle wrapped around her and. . . ‘STORM?!?!’ my mental freak out of this unwelcomed love cuddle sleepover was not quite over when I looked to my left to see. . . DREAM?!?!

SHADDUP!!! Don't ruin this for me!

I don’t know when I started freaking out loud enough to wake them up, but one thing is for sure, they knew what I was going to say.

“WHEN THE FUDGE YA’LL STARTED SLEEPING WITH MEEEE?!?!!?” I shouted, they let go, and was ready to explain themselves.

“I-I can...e-explain myself..” Storm blushed and stuttered to get the words out.

“You’re so soft and I couldn’t help but to cuddle while you were sleeping peacefully.” Gaze said happy and stretching the sleep out of her body.

“Storm wouldn’t let you stay at my humble house, but she didn’t say I couldn’t sleep with you here.” Dream smiled and Storm facehoofed.

Alri-ght, next time you sleep, stuffs gonna happen in the bed

Altum! NOT NOW!

Ok ok Sheesh! SOMEpony woke up on the wrong side of the cuddle.

I’ve always been crabby in the mornings if I was woken up wrong or unexpectedly. I didn’t feel like dealing with this now, so i’m gonna do what I want now.

“*sigh*Ok, one did you two really have to break in here to do this?” I looked at Gaze and Dream. They both pondered for a second about what they were going to say.

“I think it was worth the soft, smooth cuddle nap.” Gaze said.

“I agree with her, I wanted to know more on how SOFT and SMOOTH you were for her not to leave you be” Dream said. Storm and I facehoofed.

“And two, why were you cuddling me in my sleep, Storm?” I turned to Storm blushing like a red maelstrom.

“I-I..um...” Storm was too embarrassed to speak a word.

“Yeah you were totally hogging the softness for yourself when I came in!” Gaze pouted

“I agree, when did YOU get so bold, Stormy?” Dream said having a bit of fun seeing Storm so embarrassed.

Oh great! Look at the unbalanced vibe you caused in my Harem!

SILENCE! I KEEL YOU!!!’ Trying shut Altum up verbally, but of course it was to avail no matter how much I tried.

“Anyways, Ya’ll should give me bit of a warning when ya’ll decide to do that unexpectedly.”

“Okay!” Gaze said happily.

“I’m sorry Ceren” Storm said blushing

“I will try” Dream said coyly

Pfft Like they’ll listen to you, noob.

“Alright fine lets get this training day started already!” I said, pumped to get my training day, but my stomach growled as I was about to forget breakfast.

“My! We can’t start our day with an empty stomach. Come Let me cook you something before we go. Storm, may I use your kitchen for a second?” Dream asked.

“Of course you can, but I’m helping too. I’ll make sure you get the PROPER nutrients.” She said before heading into to the kitchen first , then Gaze latched herself on me.

“And I’ll stay here to enjoy his luxurious body!”

*grunt* my personal space!

Accept her hugs!

No!’ trying to pry off Gaze like last like time. It took a little bit till they called us into the kitchen, Storm tried to help me get Gaze off but it was no use this time. Dream stepped in to help and gaze finally had to let go.

I swam into the Dining room with Gaze, I saw a delicious feast of breakfast seafood. I wasn’t very excited at first because I was still used to my “human” breakfast, but after seeing Storm and Dreams beaming faces, wondering if i’ll like the breakfast they made for me. Instead of eggs, I got Lobster, for the salty meat, I got smoked salmon, my favorite morning bread is now grapes, and the one thing that I love most of seafoods is shrimp omelet.

You better eat ALL that, noob.

Yeah, yeah I know

I floated on down to the spongy, wooden legged chair. I looked my food for second before picking up the unrusted silverware with my hoof. ‘How the FUDGE am I picking up silverware with these hooves?!’ A thought I pushed aside as I tried the smoked salmon first, they tensed up before I even bit it. ‘God, so there’s so pressure on me eating this food, now I’m starting to get tensy with this.’ I bit the salmon, it wasn’t half bad underwater, probably might taste better on dry land. I gave a smile while chewing my food, Dream and Storm smiled back.

Although it was new to me to eating this kind of thing for breakfast it was quite good, but hey, gotta try something new every once in awhile. We headed out the door after we got done eating, and cleaned up. Dream lead the way to open spot of what looked like a school for...seaponies? I swear it reminded me of Finding Nemo, when I was forced to come along to watch it with my folks.

“Um...Dream? Is this place really the only place we can train at?” I asked looking at the

“Hm? What? You don’t like schools, Honey?” Dream asked me with a curious look.

“No, it’s not that. It’s just...isn’t it dangerous to be teaching an inexperienced rookie magician such as myself near by a school full of little foals?” I asked her wonder if this is a great idea.

“Oh come now! You worry too much, and yes this is the most open space on the floor. Plus the little guppies can learn and watch as well.” She said looking at curious faces of the foal-like little seaponies at the windows. They were looking at me, probably cause I’m new here or something. They ranged from the ages of Pumpkin & Pound Cake to the CMC. “Alright, Honey, lets see what you can do first, hmmm. . .why don’t you try levitating that that rock over there” She pointed her hoof to the most thick looking rock I’ve seen.

“Well, don’t just float there and stare at it, pick it up!” Gaze said snapping me out of my amazement the rocks size.

“Uh...yeah, if I can...” I concentrated hard to pick up the rock as my horn started to glow a pink aura. ‘Pink? God I don't like that color...’ I thought before realizing the rock wasn't moving. Why does it feel like I’m moving something, though.

“Ceren,...can you please put the school down, GENTLY.” Storm said.

Holy Fuggen Plot Crackers!

SHADDUP!! I need to focus!’ I thought yelled to Altum trying to focus on th-

DON”T LOOK AT THE SCHOOL DUMBASS!! OR SOMETHIN ELSE WILL GET LEVITATED!!!

Then how do I put down something I can’t see?!

Try imagining putting that rock GENTLY down on the ground.

Why should I d-

JUST DO IT!!

Ok ok damn’ My panicking thoughts were always quicker than my logical thinking. I imagined the rock being gently put down, then I heard a slight thud sound behind me.

“*Whew*” The girls said in unison.

“MY! You really are in need of a few of the lessons I can teach aren’t you Honey” Dream said with interested look on her face. I saw some of small seaponies coming out of the school excited.

“Whoa! Do it again! Do it Again!”

“Pick up another building!”

“Are you some kind of super magician?”


D’aww I think they like you Altum laughed.

“Kids settle down, and come back inside.” The Teacher called out to them.

“Aaaww!” They all cried out in unison, and they did as they’re told.

“There’s gotta be an easier way to do this magic business” I said.

“How’d you even get here without using magic?” Storm asked. Gaze excitedly raised her fin up.

“And there’s yer answer.” I said pointing to the one now waving her fin about.

“Fine. Lets move somewhere more secluded from the citizens.” Dream suggested coming closer to me.

“It isn’t gonna be too secluded, right?”

STOP QUESTIONING IT!! Atlum yelled.

“I promise its not secluded, Ho-”

“Ceren, its Ceren.” I interrupted her before she could say it again.

“Yes it is, Sugar“ Dream said with a dark grin. Making the other girls and I shudder. She lead us to a different location in Ho-.....wait isn’t that the Elder’s house?

“Um...this is the elder’s house. Why are we here?” I asked

“The elder has spells to enhance a room’s space no matter how small it is.” Dream explained as We opened the door and went inside, but I didn’t see Storm come along. ‘Hm?’ Looking back at the door way.

“You’re not coming in again?”

“I-I...just can’t go in here.”

“Oh don’t worry Storm I’ll teach him REAL good” Dream said devilishly to Storm. Storm blushed angrily.

“And I’ll make sure he stays safe!” Gaze said enthusiastically.

“What’s with the old fish that scares you?” I asked.

“Its not him that scares me, its his house!”

“His...house?” I gave her a funny look.

“There’s a rumor going on about the Elder’s house being haunted.” Dream said.

“Yeah! Rumors say If the crystals of the Elder’s house glows red, that no seapony should enter until it’s over, but I forgot what happens to those after they stay more than one night.” Gaze pondered what they were, While Storm was shivering, probably having an awful flashback or something.

Comfort Storm, she’s in distress from some kind of horrifying flashback.

Hmmm...good point, we have our fair share of bad experiences to.’ Remembering the time I read “Cupcakes”.

NO! NO FLASHBACK OF “CUPCAKES”! Altum interrupted my Flashback of my reaction to “Cupcakes”. I swam towards Storm and gave her a hug.

“Sshhhhhh, Don’t worry, its alright if ya don’t wanna go in his house, wait here if you want to” I said to her, she stopped shivering and hugged me back.

“T-thank you Ceren, I’ll be f-fine, so I’m coming in to make sure SHE doesn’t do anything fishy!” She let go, and glared at Dream giving her a devilish smile.

I had a small laugh. “Alright thats enough you two so we can please get my training started.” I said. They all nodded, Dream lead the way to the Captain’s quarters room again.

“Don’t try to knock I already know you're here and i’ve already gotten a room ready for you to train.” The Elder said before I could even knock. ‘Aw come on! At least give me a chance to knock this time like a normal seapony!’ I thought.

“And no I will not, its past the hole on the floor in the second door on your left.” He said.

you suck” I mumbled to myself, luckily he didn’t have super hearing to hear that.

HEY ELDER! CEREN SAYS YOU SUCK!!

OH MY LUNA! Shaddup! I still don’t know if he can thought sense you too!

Heh heh scared of an old psychic seapony, noob?

I’m not scared of him!

You should be scared, and you should stop talking to yourself in your head. Said a familiar old voice in my conscious.

Oh GLOB! So you can hear him too!

Again with this nonsense of which you think

*sigh* I’ll be in the training room’ I finished thinking befo-

CEERRREEENNN!!!” Storms voice ringing in my ears.

“AAH! Why are you shouting in my ear!?” I said painfully holding my ears.

“Sorry, I was trying to get your attention to let you know we found your training room set up by the elder, but you weren’t responding to us calling you, are you positive that you don’t need a doctor?” Storm said before grabbing my head and checking it if there was any damage to it.

“Yes I’m fine, now could you let go of my head please?” I asked and she did so blushingly. I swam over to the others waiting for us, this door has a light coming through the cracks of the improperly sealed door. I opened door only to met a blinding light to my face. ‘I swear on Celestia’s mane if I...get...blinded...agaaaaaain?!’ I had a serious DBZ moment, thinking about the seemingly endless white void that almost looks like the hyperbolic time chamber except there was no giant hourglasses and there wasn’t any small building, but a deep sea hotel. There were pillars that faded into the non-visionable ceiling around the hotel, the hotel itself was as big as the Holiday Inn Express at Carson City that I stopped by once during a vacation.

“Co-ol! We’re staying in here?!” Gaze said excitedly bright eyed.

“Until Ceren learns his magic properly and is not ripping schools or any other buildings off the ground yes.” Dream said.

“Oh Come ON! It wasn’t that bad” I said.

“You picked up a school, with the CHILDREN still inside it!” Storm stated out loud.

“Ok, Fine it was bad, but nopony was hurt, right?”

“No, but somepony COULD have been hurt in the process”

“Which is why I need training for my magic so that won’t happen.”

“Quite, I’ll make sure his magic won’t do that, you can trust me on this one Stormy.” Dream said.

“Oh I trust your teachings, but your personality...not so much.”

“Oh? Does my personality intimidate your chances with Ceren?”

“Alright, enough! Can we please get started?”

“My! And he’s eager to start his training with MOI!” Dream whips her black mane at Storm, and she had a rageface.

“Not just you Dream, Storm as well.” soon as I said that storm’s ears perked.

“Huh? B-but why me?” Storm questioned me and Dream raised a brow of interest.

“Cause you beat the bricks outta that “Grey” pony, and I need to learn to dodge incoming attacks” I said cooly.

“...A-alright I’ll do my best to help!”

“What can I help with?” Gaze said as I look back to her only to met with her Puppy dog eyes. ‘D’ah shit! ALTUM!’ I thought quickly on this one.

D’oh hey don’t come to me, this is YO decision, not mine.

But yer suppose to help me do that!

Fuck you I don’t! I just became my own conscious!

D’ah Fucknuggets!

“Um...I forget, what can you do...again?”

“Well, that was a stupid question, I know Geography and survival skills.” She plainly said.

“Alright! Then you teach me more about that!”

“Yesss!” She said.

“Wait a minute, I know the elder told me you wouldn't and normally that'd be enough but how did you grow up not knowing any of this already?” Dream asked.

It’s always the smart ones that get ya!

That bastard screwed me over with her asking me this question! *sigh* I guess I’ll come clean a little with the truth this time’ I thought. “Fine I’ll tell you why I don’t know the stuff ya’ll know,...I’ve never been to school in the ocean, I went to school on land...and I never fought before, and as for my magic. . .I didn’t have any before I got to the ocean and it was sealed after that until I met the Elder and I don’t even really know who did this to me even.” I told them, Storm and Gaze were surprised by this fact, but it almost seems that Dream wasn’t gonna buy it. I could see Dream decide to pass it off as the truth...for now.

“Alright! Shall we begin?” Dream said acting like a school teacher now.

“I’m REEAADDY!!” My impression of spongebob before swimming into the white void, looking back the closing door.

->Warning: This chapter contains Secret Gifs, Memes, and Word SFX. Be on the look out for them, If you want to that is....<- [Now enjoy this Chapter you Land and Air Lovers!]

“.....n......up” I heard somepony was trying wake me again but it was to avail, I was too busy dreaming about flying on the back of pidgey screaming ‘WOOOOO PIGDEY F@#$ YEAH!!!!!’ in my dream to even hear it.

“C.......ke.....” Still no avail, I flew over Altum’s dream of eroticness and and saw him giving me the you-dumbass-look.

“..r..” Now I flying over Equestria’s horizon and seeing a double nyan cat rainbow.

CCEEEEERREEEEEEEEEENNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!” I heard Storm’s voice ringing in my head, the pidgey disappeared underneath me and im screaming of free falling in my before the light hitting my vision.

“AAAAHHH-OUF!!” I screamed before falling out of the luxurious seaweed bed.

“Sorry Ceren, but you really should try waking early more often.” Storm said.

a nudge to the shoulder would’ve been better to wake me up.” I mumbled to myself.

“What was that?”

“Noth~ing, Storm.” I said angelically. I’ve always been crabby in the morning when someone wakes me up early, but never crabby to those who are nice to me.

“Well, go get something to eat before we start your training for today.”

“Yeah, I know” I said still tired. She and I went out my bedroom and went towards the kitchen nearby the lobby. I ate my breakfast of boiled shrimp on a seaweed salad and went out of the hotel like coral, rock building, Storm was waiting for me in the white distance.

“Alright, we do our daily stretching before we start our sparring.”

“Uuuuugh can we skip it this time.” I was still crabby, but I saw her give me ferocious glare. “Okay! Okay! Sheesh I was just askin.” I said. We started to do some stretches to loosen up any muscles that had knots.

Hey she checkin you out again, man.

I looked back only to see her only stretching. ‘No she isn't’ I looked again to check but again she’s still stretching until she looked back at me confused.

“Ceren? Is something wrong?” She asked.

“Um...nothing” I said before going back to my stretches.

Hey Ceren! She doin it again! Look man! Hey! Hey Ceren! Hey! HEY!

Oh My LUNA! Shaddup! I’m not gonna fall for that again!

Okay fine, but heed my warning that Storm is about to hit you

Haha very funny, I’m that gul-’ my thoughts were interrupted by tailslap from behind.

I told you brah!

Look back the third time to see her do another tailslap. ‘Holy Fudge!’ I did a barrel roll to dodge it.

“Come on! You haven’t beaten me once since we got here!” She said and swimming fast towards me, not giving me chance to gather my bearings. I dodged and tried to hit her but she wont just stay still!

Stop fighting like a HUMAN and Fight like a unicorn seapony!

When Altum told me that, I finally realized why I couldn’t touch her and I kept getting beat up by her. I was still thinking like that, probably because my capable legs was turned into a fish half. I looked at my lower half real quick about it, then i look at her. She much more mobility than I did, probably doesn't a lot defenses, plus i had magic to use, but she said anything about not using magic during our sparring.

She try to hoof stab me in the gut, back swimmed away before it connected. Even though its been a few days, its like she knows i’m a close-combat type, if i had sparring weapon, I’ve might be better. She comes in fast again, giving me somersault tailslap making me lose my balance, then coming down with a downward hoof punch. She hit me hard on the noggin to keep me confused before giving me the finishing blow.

Move damn you! Ugh! Thats it! I’m gonna have ta help ya here! Altum said before my horn started glowing pink to red. The flash stopped Storm in her tracks to as she went for the blow, the flash dimmed down to reveal a red hologram like training spear.

“What?!” She seemed at the sight of it.

“The tables have been turned Storm! This is the day I beat you!”

“I’ll believe that when it happens!” She said coming at me. I brought the red holo spear to my side. She’s coming down with both hoofs ready to stomp me down, I quickly brought the holo spear to which it blocked and turned into power struggle. I pushed, I didn’t want to lose this time, then she pushed back harder. The struggle broke when she found a way around the spear to jab me in the face, but stopped when I rotated the spear quickly to smack her on the arm, the hit connected to her arm. She winced and backed up a little giving me space that i needed, this change of the space was sudden for her probably not knowing my “other” capabilities. She was now analyzing me before changing her tactics, I charged in with my spear and swung it horizontally, she ducked then backed up and started to do loop ring really fast. I felt a current pulling me in the loop she was doing. I saw her slow down to see the current was wrapped around her dolphin tail and she did a tailslash like wave. It was too big to dodge.

“GAAAGH!!”I felled back to a semi-unconscious state, my red holo spear turned pink and disappeared.

K.O.!!!’ Altum shouted in my head.

“Sorry Ceren, but I couldn’t let you win even if you finally used magic to help yourself. That was a lot better than your previous attempts to beat me, you managed to touch me this time, but that was out of luck because I didn't know your weapon capability. This ends todays spar, you can go to Gaze’s lessons.” she said as I shook my head to keep my vision straight to the what the hell just happened, I swam to back to the hotel.

I entered the hotel like I always do, the empty counter on my left with the keys on it to open the other rooms, on my right is the grey rock coffee table and orange spongy chairs and couch. I went beyond the lobby and made a right, down the hallway. The hallway had two separate doors on each side before the stairway the second floor. I swam over to the first door on my right labeled, the first day I thought ‘What staff? Theres no soul to be found around here!’ I opened the door.

“Ceren! FINALLY its my turn again!” She says excitedly, that spar with Storm really wore me out this time.

“Eeyup it’s book time again...” I said uninterested in the subject.

“Oh don’t act that, you were pretty interested the last few time when you came in here.” She said. ‘Last fews times? I fell asleep the spongy couch in the front! Altum!’ thought yelled.

‘. . .’ Altum apparently wasn’t talking to me.

“Well shall we begin?”

“Are....are those fake glasses?”

“N-no! They’re real!”

“Those ARE fake glasses! Why you wearing fake glasses with no glass?”

“You’re the one that asked me to!” Gaze was getting confusingly mad at me. ‘When da fudge I say that?!’ I thought confused.

“Uh, I did?” I was obviously confused, when I have I asked her to do that.

“Yes, you DID! You wondered what I’d look like with them on and said you would like me to wear them today!” She said. ‘AAAALLLLTUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMM!!!!!’ I thought before I managed to hide my rage face from Gaze’s sight.

You ra~ng?

ALTUM!!! DON’T THINK CEREN SULL’OCEANO CAN’T TAILSLAP YO ASS TO DA MOON!!!’ I did my best Black Dynamite impression thought yell at him.

Now how you gonna do that without sending yo “own” ass to da moon?’

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!’ This was getting old too far fast geting taunted like this by my own head.

Problem?'

“Can we PLEASE start this lesson before my time is up!” Gaze said getting impatient with my pondering moment.

“Ok ok keep yo fins on i’m ready to start.” I was pretty steamed that I wasn’t able to touch what was making me mad, but I had to tolerate Altum until this training is over.

After awhile of speeches of seapony history I suddenly getting tired for some reason and i never fall asleep on something I was interested, Gaze turned her back to me, gave me a chance to put my head down for a minute.

“C......p” I heard Gaze’s voice but i couldn't hear she said. I felt nudge waking me up. “Ceren time to get u~p” She said happily, i lifted my head up to see her smiling at me.

“Um...how long was I out?” I said. I don't know why she smiling, though.

“Only a few minutes, but you better hurry to Dream, you know she doesn’t like to be kept waiting.”

“What about seapony history? Are we skipping it today?” I asked confused. She giggled.

“We already did that before you nodded off to sleep at the end of the lesson.” she said. ‘What the hell? But I just slept through the ENTIRE thing! How did I even respond to the lesson if I was asleep!’ I was really confused by this. “You're gonna get “disciplined” if you don’t get your cute tail out of here and start that magic practice with Dream soon” she said. I shivered at remembering the last punishment Dream gave me for slacken.

“You don’t have to tell me three times for that, see ya later Gaze!” I said before swimming out the door fast.

“Later, Hottie.” she said before I opened the door and went out the staff room. ‘What the hell? Hottie? Whut?’ I thought outside the room.

I headed outside and swam around to the back of the hotel. I saw Dream lying down on the kind of chairs that you see at hotel pools, I forget what they’re called.

“Why you’re a few seconds early! Eager to get started on magic practice are you sugar~?”

Just so I can get punished by you, baby.

Just so I won’t get punished by you.

‘...’

...

D’ah screw you, Noob!

D’ah screw you, Perv!’ I thought yelled to Altum

“So shall we begin?” she said giving me wild grin like those mares in the village had.

“Y-yes, Dream. I am.”

“Yes what, Sugar?”

“Yes, Miss Dream.”

“That’s much better, Sugar. Now I’m going to have you do that same technique you used during your training with Storm again.”

“You mean that spear thing I used, but when did you see it? I didn’t see you there when I did it.”

“I saw the whole training from start to finish and I say Storm kept watching you while you did that stretching routine.”

I TOLD YOU, BRAH!!!

“And after she slaps you at the back of your poor noggin, I certainly was surprised that you didn’t dodge it.” She said disappointedly. ‘I would have dodged it if YOU wasn’t distracting me Altum!

It’s not my fault that you actually listen to me at the wrong times.

“But that...red spear...you used an advanced spell, making illusions solid and not many unicorn seaponies can do that at all.” Dream said.

You wouldn’t have gotten to know that spell without my help...you wanted a weapon and I provided.

“Really? It came natural for me easy.”

“Which is why I suggested you show me that technique.”

“I guess I’ll try...” I said after closing my eyes to concentrate. I envisioned the same training spear I used on Storm, then I opened my to see a flickering pink spear in front of me, I try to touch it but it disbanded before my hoof could feel it.

“Hmmmm...perhaps you practice this until you’ve nailed it for rest of the day.”

“Aw what?!”

“Are you complaining? That better not be complaining” Dream shot a devious glare at me.

“N-no ma’am, Miss Dream.”

“Good. Now practice that until I come back with some refreshments for us.” she said before swimming to the but stopped suddenly. “And Ceren?” she said. ‘Huh? She said my name? I wonder if its a serious advice?’

“Um...yes Miss Dream?” I listened carefully.

“I will ALWAYS be watching you.”

“...” I was a little creeped out by the thought of her watching me all the time. ALL THE TIME...

heh heh alllriiight

Shut it Quagmire.’ I thought to altum before I did what I was told. I concentrated on making that holo spear again, but it was obviously to no avail.

Haha! You got your work cut out for you!

Y’know, you could help me with this.

Hmmm...nah man, I totally know you got this.

You bastard.

You mean YOU'RE the bastard.

*sigh* WHY do I even try.’ And with that frustration in mind, I continued my practice with my new spell that I obtained through Altum’s help earlier.


---------------------A few hours later-------------------


After hours of trying summon the spear again, I FINALLY see Dream come back with the refreshments that she said she’d get for us. They looked like...popsicles?

“WHAT IN DEN’S NAME HAVE YOU BEEN DOING FOR HOURS!!!” I shouted at Dream, all the frustrations on perfecting the spell was let loose.

“My word, Sugar! You dare take that tone of voice with MOI?” She said shooting a glare at me that says ‘Do you WANT to get punished that badly!’

“Uh...what I meant to say was, how was your trip to the kitchen?” I said in cold sweat.

“Hmph! It was pleasant thank you very much! And here’s your POPSEACLE!!” She said before throwing the popsicle that smashed against my head on impact. ‘AAUGH! What the HELL!’ I painfully thought while trying to bare with the pain that came upon my head.

“Ow! What was that for!”

“For getting snippy with me mister! Now continue practicing that technique until you’ve mastered it!”

“But-”

“No buts! Practice! NOW!”

haha you fucked up big time noob! Altum said before breaking into laughter.

Aaah F@#$ m- wait how come I get bleeped and you didnt?

One. I did it, cause its fun messing with you, And TWO! ...well...I just like messing with you.

“My patience is wearing down, Sugar...” she said with dark grin on her face.

“S-sorry, Miss Dream, I’ll get right on it!” I said fast before I continued my practice.

“Good.” She said with a smile.



--------------a few MORE later-----------------



“*pant* *pant* Dream...can I...take...a break NOOW!” I said catching my breath. She out of all of them was really pushing my limits to the extreme with this magic training, its a good thing she’s not the one I start my day with. Dream had already told me about Elemental magic, Leylines, how some monsters are assigned to environment elements, and Gems that can hold magic power, I was baffled by this fact when she told me about it.

“Is that whining I hear, hmm?”

“Urk! N-nope! No whining here.” I said scared, not wanting any “discipline” that she gave me the last time I screwed up. I’ve mastered levitation, but now that I’ve gotten the hang of it, it now causes me to get a nosebleed if i take too long on how heavy the object is.

Damn she LITERALLY owns you...wait she owns u~s.

I ignored Altum’s last comment and saw dream...is that...a popsicle she’s licking? It was shaped like a clear bottle except it was ice and it had metal stick out the end...there's a piece of a strawberry inside of it? She noticed me staring at her licking the drink like ice bottle and grinned.

“Is something wrong, Sugar?”

“N-n-nothing! J-just wondering...uh...what's that popsicle’s name again? Heh heh” I said and laughed a little nervously that so she won’t “punish” me.

“O~h this? This is just a little treat. It’s a MOST refreshing thing that all seaponies like, even land ponies like it I hear.” she then licked it slowly up from the bottom of it up to the very tip of the bottle shape. She breathed on the top of the popsicle before continuing to lick at it’s sides, she slowly did same as before reaching the top again and slowly taking it into her mouth and sucking on it for a bit.

Holy Celestia...this...is...TORTURE!!! Let me take control please! please pleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseple-

One. I agree that this IS torture and this is probably a small portion of “discipline”. And two, HELL NO!! Like i’m gonna let YOU run loose with my hormones!

Aw come o~n its only gonna be like five minutes I swear!

Ah nah ya don’t! I’ve seen a lot of movies, manga, and whole bunch of other weird stuff to know the result of that! I’ll NEVER gonna let you take over my body!

You really need to let loose y’know. I wouldn’t have been created if it weren’t for that up tightness and edgy attitude you had going on. You need to fix that problem ya got going on with yerself. I’m yo deepest parts let loose, now cut me outta this box yo!

‘Hmmm...nnnope.’ Having enough of the shenanigans that went on inside my head, I was still watching Dream get to the center of the popsicle. She got to the center and started eati-

“HEY CEREN!”

“AAH! What the clams, Gaze!”

“I wanted to see what you were doing over here and...why are you so red?”

“...” I was embarrassed to talk, Dream had literally gave me images that I cannot remove from my mind, I think Altum got a hold of’em.

“*gasp* Dream! No fair! We agreed on no seducing Ceren!”

“And so I did, all I did was just eat my strawberry and he just became flustered all of a sudden.” She said playing the fake innocent party again.

“Wait wait waitwaitwait...wait a moment agreed? Don’t I get any say on any agreement?”

“Nope!”

“None at all, Sugar.”

Dude you never had any in the first place.

There was sudden rumbling all around. Storm came to us with a terrible look on her face. “Um...Storm what was that?” I asked. The rumbling got rougher and I think heard something break in the hotel.

“The Magnathorax...*pant* IT'S BACK!!!”

I'M BACK!!! AND SO IS AV!!! X3 READ!! NOW!! MESSAGE AT BOTTOM!!! XD BE FIRST POST NOW!!!


“hold on Storm, what’s a Magnanathroawax?” I asked wondering what the hell is Magnathen. . .magos. . .whatever it is. The place rumbled a bit more once again.

“Mag-na-tho-rax, Ceren! And its back AGAIN to eat this Island!” Storm corrected me with a worried face.

“WHAT?! But I thought we took care of its hunger for our island months ago!!” Gaze said started to freak out about it.

“Well apparently its STILL hungry!” Storm shouted.

“Was our offerings not enough this time?” Dream asked calmly. What the fudge is a Magnathorax! I hope its nothing big or anything.

“NO! And it’s gonna eat Home, If we don't figure something quick, we can kiss our tails goodbye along with the villagers of Home!” Storm panicked more at the thought of it.

“I don’t want “Home” to end up like Casa Mojado that got eaten!” Gaze said panically. ‘ Casa Mojado? Eaten? I’m beginning to question about this Mognuprax’s size’ I thought a little worried.

‘Hmmmm...offerings, eh. I think I got a solution to this dilemma we got here’

‘As long as its not involving me chasing it away from Home.’

‘...’

‘....I’m involved with that aren't I?’

‘Eeyup’

‘Fine! Just tell me the plan so I can tell it to them’ I thought. “I think I have a way to temporarily remove the Magathrax.” I said.

“Magnathorax.” Storm corrected me.

‘Okay here’s the plan, we drive the Magnathorax away from Home, and give it food, since thats all it wants.’

“Whatever! Okay here’s my plan, we get the Magnanathax away from Home.”

“Magnathorax!” Storm corrected me again.

“Then we give it food once we’re away from Home.” I explained.

“Don’t you think we’ve already done that?! It’s still gonna come back!” Gaze told me.

‘BUT we enchant the food enough with Sleep magic to keep it at bay for awhile, until its hungry again.’

“BUT we put enough sleeping magic on the food so it can have enough to eat and give enough time for us to get ready for it the next time it gets hungry.” I explained Altum’s plan to them.

“But how will we get enough food for the Magnathorax?” Dream asked.

‘Just how big is the Magnogax is anyway?!’ I thought.

“...well there is one way to make it’s food.” Storm said with a grim look on her face.

“*gasp* Surely you are not suggesting we use...” Dream said sadly, and storm nodded. Dream pondered, then the other girls did the same. I saw everyone get a light bulb moment above the their heads and looked at me.

‘Aw firetrucks...’ I thought before getting pulled away by my tail towards to doorway.


“Ga~ze, are you sure this is a great idea for ME to do this part of my plan?” I said, floating right outside of the cove.

“Aw come on Ceren! Don’t be a scaredy catfish! Part of your plan was to attract the Magnathorax away from Home, so start being...annoying or something it.” Gaze Shouted. “Plus the others need time to get the food ready!” Gaze added. Shes hiding inside the cove, it was still rumbling inside from what I saw..

“Ah great! this plan of yours backfired on us, Altum!” I mumbled to my myself before turn turning around to look for the Magnathorax.

‘Hey! Even I didn’t predict this outcome! Now quit bein scared!’ Altum said, I swam further out to find it but was to no avail.

‘Well, I’m gonna be scared if I find out if it’s a thousand times bigger than me!’ I thought at Altum. I kept swimming further to find it, then turned to see behind me. ‘Man where the heck is it? If it was big, I would’ve....seen it......alreeeaaady’ I thought before my jaw dropped at what PROBABLY was the Magnathorax. ‘OH!’

‘My!’

“GOOOOOOOOD!!!!” I screamed. I was scared beyond belief at the size of it, it was probably about the size of...well damn I think it’s bigger than a shadow of the colossus monster! It had the head of a snake with some fins towards the back end of its head, sharp gnashing teeth that the beast could use me as its toothpick...if it had arms of course. It was long, VERY long, and I bet its home is probably a million times bigger than this little island with Home inside. ‘WHAT IN CELESTIA’S NAME WAS I THINKING AGREEING TO PLAN TO KNOCK THIS THING THE FUCK OUT!?!?!’ I mind shrieked about my life of hanging in the balance. I had a cold chill went down my spine just over to the shivering Gaze hiding in the cove entrance.

‘Ceren, I know it’s a liiiittle too big, but we can't just wuss out on this solution.’

Altum maybe the most annoying, snarky, perverted subconscious that anyone could have, but HE knows me the most out of anyone I know. I mean come on, Altum is my inner me from start to now. I gathered my courage and took a deep breath of...ocean water, then swam fast towards the colossal monster.

“D-DON’T WORRY GAZE! I GOT THIS!” I shouted to her shivering self to reassure that I can get this...*gulp* gargantuan sea beast’s attention. It looked like a small portion of it wrapped around the island like was it trying to squeeze the island or something, but I couldn’t let it do that or else Home would be crushed.

I got into its eye view, but it wasn’t focused on me...yet. I concentrated hard on imaging a large hammer, but it was to no avail. ‘God GLOBBIT!!!’ I thought shouted out of frustration.

‘For Luna’s sake man, did you forget Dream’s teachings already?!’ Altum shouted. ‘Remember! You can't create magic out of nothing, but change it.....’ Altum reminded me, but also triggering a flashback when I was still in high school, My physics teacher was telling everyone about energy and how it worked. I calmed down a bit, closed my eyes and tried again. I slowly felt everything slow down for moment. I opened my eyes to see a bright pink glowing transparent giant hammer, it wasn’t as big the monster was, but it probably was the size of its eye, but no bigger than that.

“Alright! Now we’re talking!” I said feeling a bit more confident and preparing my hammer for a big swing. I saw the iris of the beast come looking in my direction. “Sorry bout this big guy, but this island...is under new protection now!” I said before slamming my hammer against it’s eye, making it roar out in pain I did it. I disbanded my holo hammer and swam away fast to get some distance from it and boy was it PISSED at me.

“COME ON!! OUT OF ALL SEAPONIES THAT TRIED HURTING YOU, YOU CRY OUT IN PAIN WHEN I HIT YOU IN THE EYE!? YOU’RE JUST A BIG BABY!!” I shouted at it, and I don't think it understood what I said, but it was too steamed to listen. Its grip on the island loosen up and started coming after me. ‘OH SH#@!!!!’ I thought freaked out before swimming for my life. I looked back to see if it was still chasing me, aaAAANDD IT STILL IS!!! I manage to dodge its gaping jaw snap by an inch.

“GAAAAZE!!! HOW LONG TILL THE OTHERS ARE DONE!!!” I shout over to gaze who is still hiding in the cove. The sea beast roared, I wasn’t able to hear what she said before I swam further away from the cove. ‘Dagnabit! I didn't catch what she said!’

‘lose it and hide behind some rocks!’

“LIKE HELL THAT’LL WORK!!” I said while maneuvering through some small rock arches and large coral reefs that I WISH I could’ve gotten some pictures of. I heard loud noises behind me, sounded like it didnt work to slow it down. I passed by some kind huge crater, but it was filled with some kind of glowing reef and seaweed trees of some sort. I looked back again only to find out that I was in its mouth before it snapped it shut.

“AAAHH!!! Let me out!LETMEOUTLETMEOUTLETMEOUUUUUT!!!!!” I screamed bloody murder, banging my hooves on its teeth. Now I was freaking out, I had to try to stay calm and think about on how to get out of its mouth before it thinks about chomping me down and swallowing me. I quickly thought up a jack lift to open up the sea beast’s mouth, I struggled a bit to get the jack lift to move, but I ended up getting a nosebleed.

‘Dang it Ceren! Put more mental muscle into it!’

“You’re...not hel-PING!!!” I said struggling to get the top of the mouth to move.

‘Ceren! You’re gonna get us both killed at this rate!’

“And YOU think...you can do...b-BETTER!!” I said frustratedly.

‘Yeah I can if you just let me take over NOW!’

“Fat....CHANCE!!!” I said struggling. The jack lift I created had begun to crack a little with each attempt I made to open the beasts mouth.

‘WHY ARE YOU BEIN STUBBORN AT A CRITICAL TIME LIKE THIS!!’

“CAUSE!!! Ever...since I got here...in this WORLD!!! I had more...fun here than that boring life...I HAD!!!” The struggle to get the mouth open was starting to take its toll on me. My began head hurt and my vision blocked by my own nose blood.

‘But what about your friends and family! You can't just up and die here! We don't even know if this is our REAL bod transformed into a non-existent kids show cartoon!’

“Don’t you...think...I know...that..........” I said before everything turned dark red.

Gaze “Wander Gaze”

---------------------------------------------------


The cove around me stopped rumbling, Ceren had successfully driven the Magnathorax away but I could still see it miles away from here. “Come on, Ceren. PLEASE be alright!” I said really worried about him. I noticed the others had FINALLY come out with the largest boiled lobster tail I’d ever seen and it was the most delicious thing I’ve seen in my life. It was deep fried to glissing brown with tiny bits of green spicy seaweed mix and seemed as though the inner sides of the meat was filled with a special seasoning sauce. I was practically in awe at the sight of it, but it was just too BAD that I couldn’t have a piece of it. “What took you girls so long!? Ceren is getting chased by the same monster that ate Casa Mojado!” I said shaking off the thought of eating it now.

“Sorry Gaze, Dream here was getting skeptical about the spices” Storm said to me while the Elder, Dream, even Grey, and all the unicorn seaponies and octoponies in Home, levitated the dish out slowly so it wouldn’t fall over.

“Stormy dear, you didn't expect me to leave it unperfected did you?” Dream stated.

“CEREN IS OUT THERE RISKING HIS LIFE FOR THIS VILLAGE DREAM!! I think we could’ve skipped the spices this time!” Storm shouted.

“WELL! I never, I will neve-”

“GIRLS!! We don’t have time for this! Dream! Is the Lobster tail enchanted with sleep magic” I asked her. I want to make sure we get Ceren safely back with us again......Ok FINE, I just want to hug him senseless when this is over.

“Why yes Gaze, bu-” She stopped before she could finish her sentence. I felt a sense of dread coming towards Home. I turned around to see the Magnathorax coming this way with a smouldering red like smoke coming out of its mouth and continuing to surround it’s body while drawing closer to Home.

“No...You don’t think...that he...” Storm worriedly asked.

‘Hmmm...did he get eaten?’ I asked myself. “Naah! But if he did get eaten, we could always FISH him out.” I said with a giggle, but I am worried about him though. He was my best pillow yet. In fact, the first time I slept with him was probably the best sleep I ever had.

“I agree with Gaze, we’ll save him if he got eaten.” Dream said.

‘*sigh* I hope he didn’t get eaten, I don’t want hug him if he’s all slimy and stu. . .’ My thoughts were interrupted by the Magnathorax’s...what was wrong with it? It started to thrash around more and the red smoke that was coming out thicker. I could’ve swore I saw a tiny red flash for moment when it roared.

“What the...tuunaaaa...!?” Was all I could say to what I was looking at. Magnathorax, a monstrous being capable of eating islands, making new islands, and is capable of eating an entire village of seaponies, was choking on something? Did it really eat Ceren? Everypony was confused except the elder and Dream.




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ceren Sull’oceano, a few minutes earlier...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Everything felt was dark, eerie, and...smelled bad...really bad. I opened my eyes and found myself in some type of room when I met altum for the first time.

‘Aawww, sleepy head finally decided to woke up.’ Altum said in the distance before the red light he was floating in front of.

‘What’s goin on?’ I asked Altum, rebalancing myself in this dark space I was in.

‘A show that no seapony is gonna forget is what’s goin on, my little noob’

‘Ok that somewhat answers my question, but wasn’t I in the mouth of the-’

‘Magnathorax. Yeeeah, you was, but not me....’ Altum said before he tried to swim into the red light.

‘Wait! Where do you think you’re goin?’ I asked before trying to stop him from going into the red light. He was silent a for moment.

‘TO RAISE SOME HELL!!’ Altum said before he swam into the red light. The red light flashed, blinding me a little before deeming down slowly.

‘What?! Hey come back here!’ I said swimming fast to the dimming red light. I tried make it, but I was too late, I missed by a long shot to get into the red light. Everything went dark again, I couldn’t seen nothin. I looked around but it was to no avail, I still see absolutely noth-... ‘what is that?’ I said looking at what seems to be...a red wave? It looked like a wave of red energy, the closer it got the more I feel adrenaline pumping through my veins. ‘W-what is this power rush?!’ I said, starting to like this profound power. The red energy covered every inch that was in my mind, giving a red glow around me.

“That, my little noob, is what TRUE power is. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to put our BIG friend to bed.” Altum’s voice echoed all around me before fading away.




-------------------------------

Altum

-------------------------------


“HENSHIN A GO GO BABY!!” I shouted feeling ready and pumped to take this Monstrosity down. It seemed that the last thing Ceren was doing before we switched was holding on to the Uvula of the Magnathorax. A dim red light glinted off of the slime coating the inside of the beasts mouth. ‘Where is that light coming from?’ I asked myself. ‘Well where ever its coming from, I’ll check it later when this thing is asleep and use it as flashlight for now’ I thought.

‘Hello? Can you hear me? HellooOOooo?’

“Yes, I can hear you just fine. Now silence! While I put this monster to sleep!” I said pointing my horn towards the back of the beasts throat. My horn glowed red, as I concentrated on making a smog like mist. If I’m right, the smog should spread around to the beast’s lungs and it should knock it out, but the only problem would be is if it had gills, Ceren didn’t get a good look because of the sheer terror clouding his mind. I covered myself in a anti-sleep bubble encasing every inch of my body and then focusing hard on creating a smog like sleep gas aura, and obviously it was red thanks to my magic, Although, I did like the red mist thing goin on. The red smog was starting to shroud my vision, seeing a red light on red smog wasn't helping me see what’s going on in the mouth.

after a few minutes, the beast started flailing around or something. I don’t fucking know it was getting crazy inside the mouth, it was choking and coughing on the smog that I was making.

‘Hey What’s goin on out there!? Things are starting get too intense inside my head here!’ Ceren said with concern.

“Nope, nothing! don’t worry, I got everything under control.” I said before hearing the beast making a roar of rage and anguish. My eardrums were now ringing badly, the beast was now that I believe THRASHING about. I think it was trying fight the sleep off.

‘Aaaltum, I don’t think yah got this under control! Cause its getting pretty crazy up in my mind right now!’ Ceren said even more concerned about what I was doing.

Don’t worry. . . I got this!” I said enthusiastically. The Magnathorax beginning to thrash less and less every minute, I wish Ceren had brought his watch, so that way I could tell for sure, but its not relevant to this moment. The Magnathorax made one last thrash before making it’s last roar facing up towards the surface of the ocean, seeing the bright vastless sky.

*WWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSCCCCHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!*

The Magnathorax’s last roar made the surface water ripple violently before making falling down motion. I slipped off of the uvula and I hit against the ceiling of it’s mouth, then the loudest thud I’ve ever heard underwater and instantly causing me to descend onto the Magnathorax’s tongue.

“EEYUCK!! Maggy you need some fuggen mouth wash cause yo tongue STANK!!!” I said in disgust before floating back up and I ceased my magic, stopping everything I was doing before.

‘*sigh* We can’t even smell anything underwater! What makes you think we can smell stuff down here? Anyways, switch back or something so I can have control again.’ Ceren said sternly.

‘Well one, either YOU can’t smell anything or I got a sensitive nose underwater, cause this thing got some serious dental health issues. And two, HECK NO!!! I’m not going back just yet, I got lil’business to attend to soooo yeah, hell no man.’ I said reconstructing the same magic jack lift that Ceren used in his first attempt. I magically cracked up the jack lift and the beast’s mouth started raise.

I swam towards the front teeth of the Magnathorax, I saw Gaze, Storm, Dream, old fish, and others I’ve never talked to, and even Grey was just float’en there with their jaws dropped. I squeezed myself between the teeth. trying not to cut myself against it’s sharp dentals.

“What? No “Woohoo! he did it!” celebration? Come oooon, did ya’ll think I get eaten that easily?” I said whimsically before swimming out of it’s mouth and disbanding my magic. Gaze snapped out of it and came up to me slowly.

“But.....how...how did you do that?” Gaze asked confused but didn’t get too close for some reason. Then Storm came up to me slowly as well.

“W-what happened out there?” Storm asked with a worried look on her face. And lastly, Dream swam up to me curiously and this time she didn’t look anywhere else other than giving me Absolute eye contact.

“And...why is your left eye glowing like that, ?” Dream asked getting closer to examine my face.

“Well those questions will have to wait till we make sure this “Thing” is away from Home first, then I’ll answer any questions ya’ll got okay, loves.” I said turning around facing the gnashing teeth that could’ve killed Ceren and I, concentrating on lifting it up and not dropping its jaw. The Magnathorax was too heavy to lift up, I looked behind me just to see every unicorn seapony STILL floating there.

“Um...ngh! A little help....would be fine right about...now guys!” I said sternly and still struggling to lift the rest of its body. And to think everyone was looking at heterochromia eyes before, this time it’s my left glowin eye that was distracted them from moving.

“Chop, chop Everypony I can’t hold this by myself!” I said even more sternly this time. The seaponies who were brought along snapped out of it and started swimming along the Magnathorax’s sides, but the ones that moved slowly was Dream, the elder, and...Is Grey giving me a nasty look? Grey was literally giving me a glare, what is his beef with Ceren and me? I remember Grey saying something about a sea mare ...........oh snap! Is that jealousy I see? Ohoh man I wonder who it is?

“Let me help you with that, sugar.” Dream said swimming next to my right side with her horn lighting up. The sleeping head of the beast felt lighter, I was no longer struggling to lift it anymore, but it was a neutral lift now.

“Thanks, Babe.” I said smiling at her. Her eyes widen, apparently astonished by something. “What? Was it something I said?” I asked a little curious by the surprise on her face.

“That’s the first time you called me anything other than my name, Sugs” She said with glee and moved closer to me. WOAH! What’s with the...Oooooh NOW I get it. Hater got a problem with his crush liken me, but didn’t Dream scold him for almost busting the village into oblivion? Well, whatever if he gives me any problems, I swear we’re gonna settle it one-on-one, no interferences, and dare I say it, no girls.

Dream saw Grey’s death glare and she gave off the most stone cold killer stare at him, even I was able to sense it and so did everyone else. Everyone cringed except for the elder, Grey swammed behind a few seaponies from Dream and I.

Apparently I knocked it out with so much of my sleep magic mist, and that it wasn’t gonna wake up anytime soon, but good thing, I’m soooo not ready for round two with it.

“ALRIGHT!! WE’RE GONNA TAKE THE MAGNATHORAX AWAY FROM HOME ABOUT A WEEK SHOULD DO IT, PROBABLY ENOUGH TO GIVE HOME TO PREPARE FOR ITS NEXT ATTEMPT! GOT IT?” Storm shouted to everyone who was present. Everyone nodded and was ready to go.

“Aren’t you being a little too loud, what if it wakes up, because of you.” Said the unfamiliar male voice behind me.

“Pfft! Please! Like it would wake up now, this thing is out like a solar crystal. Its not waking up anytime soon...I think.” Storm said that last part sounding a bit unsure.

“You think?! We’ll get eaten if it wakes up before we make even make it!” This pony seriously has no idea how much valuable time he’s wasting and was getting on my nerves talking to MY Storm in that tone.

“Hey! Keep that mouth running, and we all die sooner than you can say “Oops!” So suck up, shut up, and let’s get this thing outta here already! AND! If you talk to her like that again, your gonna have a nice “chat” with me...” I said before turning around giving him a death glare with my left eye. Death Glare successful, random seapony has shut up, but something tells me this is gonna be looong trip.

------Meanwhile------

“Hehhehheh bene, beeene...he’s doing fine for his first time with his subconscious’s help. Unlike the other miserable sciocchi who failed me, but this one just might be the right one after all, right enough to visit you, my little pezzo degli scacchi...” Said the Silhouetted figure before fading off into the dark.
