When I woke up I found that I was still in the library and my head was in one of the mining books. So as I sat up and stretched I started to think about what I had found. The strange metal was a meteorite from way back that could never be found except by those with hearts of pure. But once mined it will become visible to all who see it. It is one of two deposits that have ever been found. But the first deposit… had become the elements of harmony and the elements of disharmony. When given a certain attribute it becomes that and it gains magic inside of it by its maker. But it cannot be manipulated by normal means. It can be only be manipulated with a powerful magic object that was created when the first objects were made… but was lost after the elements of disharmony were created. So I will need to go on a fucking treasure hunt for it. Just fucking great. Well at least I have the second deposit hidden somewhere where no one would find it. As I started to put away the books I was thinking. If what I found is very rare anyone would do whatever they could and even more to get it so I will have to be very careful. As I put away the last of my books there was a knock at the door and I walked over and opened it to find moon and eclipse there. "Good night to you all. Come on in." I said as they smiled and they all walked in.

"We wished to see how you have been progressing here." Eclipse said as I made up some tea and brought it in for them.

"Well I have been doing well. I have been doing good in the mines as well." I said as I brought out the two bags and opened them. The bag with all the iron was hiding all the gold at the bottom really well.

"You certainly have been doing well. Including you finding this steel." She said.

"Well I already got armor so I'm good." I said and they looked at me rather curious.

"What kind of armor?" moon asked me.

"Steel armor." They looked at me like I was crazy so I then took out my armor and they looked amazed.

"You have certainly done well!" eclipse said as she looked at all the bars.

"Why thank you eclipse. But why are you really here?" I then asked when they looked at each other. "Please… I know you both wouldn't just come here just because of me. So why else are you here?"

"Well we needed to ask you something about your powers…" oh fucking shit…

"Like what?" I then asked.

"We need to see if your powers have to do with magic." Okay so that explains that. "And also some of our hunters stationed in dark Ponyville have exclaimed two legged creature had stopped one of their hunts for meat." Well… shit.

"No hunting will be done in my vicinity and that's that. I do not like seeing death to anything that hasn't done anything wrong." I then said in my defense and they looked at each other worried.

"Well stopping a hunt… means you have issued a challenge to all the hunters in that town." Son of a fucking bitch!

"Well then what?" I asked them trying to keep calm.

"They will challenge you at any time during the next year. If you survive for the next year then the challenge will be revoked." Okay so I just have to survive for a year… just great.

"Well I shall try my best."

"If you want we could disband the challenge?" moon asked and I only frowned.

"If you did that it would show weakness in me. I will take it like a man or stallion in this case. I got to get used to pony language." They only smiled.

"Then you are very brave ben." Eclipse said.

"Thank you. But do you know anything about my brother and sister?" I asked with worry.

"We do not know anything yet. Moon went to the day realm yesterday and searched around for answers but has come up with nothing so far." I was really hoping they would say they at least found something.

"Well thank you for at least trying." They only nodded. "Well what else?"

"Well we still need to cast a spell on you to see about your powers." I only nodded as they both lowered their horns at me and I felt a small tickle as a thin beam hit me and when they got back up they gasped.

"So that's what his attribute is…" eclipse said.

"Okay first question is how bad and second question is what do you mean?" I asked them as they looked at each other.

"The first one is actually you have a lot of magic inside of you… but it is a forbidden magic that nopony in the realm of light should have… light magic."

"So I guess this means I must die now…" I said sitting down with my head down.

"We shall make sure that you are not going to die… but you will need to try and keep the magic a secret until we know a way to get rid of it." I nodded at that. Anything not to be treated as an outcast.

"Well sister little sister I believe we shall need to leave. We have duties to attend to." Eclipse said as I only nodded as I walked over to the door and opened it for them as they all walked out and I then reclosed the door and watched them take flight into the rain with their wings. As soon as they both left I started to think. What if the others found out about the type of magic inside of me? They would treat me as an outcast when I don't ever want to be one again. I would actually rather die than let that happen again. As I just sat there I also thought about the treasure I needed to find. What would the treasure even be? This was going to be a hard hunt. Maybe I could use my magic to help me locate where it is? No that would most likely tip them off about what I am... Well shit there's nothing I can do except I just hope to find it during my stay here. As I got up and put away the bags and armor as soon as I sat back down taking a sip of tea midnight walked through the door. "Why is there tea made?" She asked me.

"The princesses had visited while you were out to check on me. We had tea and talked and then it turns out I have magic inside of me so it isn't actual powers." She only got wide eyed.

"Well then that's good! Well I was hoping that maybe you could come with us somewhere tomorrow?" She asked me.

"Depends on where it is we are going." She got a little sketchy.

"Well we were all hoping to go into the forest to look around for an important treasure..." I perked up at that. Could it actually be the treasure that I am looking for? Naw it couldn't be that much of a convenience. "Said treasure is what had created the elements of disharmony as well as elements of harmony..."

Son...

Of...

A...

Bitch...

Whelp... That's convenient for me.

"I would be happy to help. You need me to help you all through the forest?" She nodded.

"Then I will help you if I can study said treasure." She only smiled.

"You may study it even though there is nothing that can be done with it anymore." She said as she walked up the stairs. That's what you think. Well I guess I might as well get ready to go to the mine when midnight walked down. "Do you mind if I come with you to see how you work?" Shit.

"Sure you can come. But be careful and I do have a lot of bags full of gems I still haven't taken anywhere yet so don't take any." She only smirked.

"Gems are as valuable as dirt." Well and I was hoping to be rich. Well shit.

"Then you ready to go?" I asked taking back out my armor and putting it on.

"Why are you putting on your armor?" She asked me giving me a confused look.

"In case there are any cave ins I wouldn't get hurt that much." I said as she nodded and we started to run through the open rain towards the mines. I would have to make sure we don't find much steel and gold so then she wouldn't try to find out more about my magic. As we exited town another thought came to mind. What if she found the metal...? I would be in deep shit then. I am also starting to wonder why my mind wants me to keep all the gold I had found a secret. Maybe it's because once I leave midnights house I would no longer have friends and I would be treated as an outcast once more. As we finally reached the mines we walked in and I handed midnight a helmet lamp and then I grabbed one as well as several pickaxes and I lead her towards the cavern I had found to find that a lot of the entrance to be covered in crystal. "The entrance wasn't crystal last time." I said as I then pulled out my steel sword and we cautiously entered the cavern as I was then jumped by something with 8 legs and a body of a spider. "SHIT!" I yelled as I kicked it off of me and as I got back up I then watched it did as well and as it scurried back towards me I then planted my sword into its head. "Thought you could get the jump on me you little piece of shit!" I yelled as I then pulled out my sword and I then out it into its sheath and I grabbed the stuff I had brought and we both walked farther into the cavern and I could see some spots where gold was as we walked really deep until we found a good deposit if iron and I started to mine. "Found this cavern on my first day here." I told her as I swung the pickaxe with every word.

"Really?" She asked soon joining me as she started to swing the pickaxe as well.

"Yep. I must say that I had randomly chosen the soot where the rock wall was and I can't believe I found this loot cavern."

"Well you could sell all the iron you have to get enough bits to buy a house if you do this for about a month." She said as I started to out the chipped iron into a bag filling it and then moving it off to the side as I got working once more swinging the pickaxe.

"That might be the plan if I don't find anymore gold." I lied as she seemed to buy it.

"That would be wise since there is a lot of it." She said as she wiped her forehead of the sweat.

"So where were you when I woke up today?" I asked her.

"I was with my friends talking about a certain something." She said.

"Well it's none of my business to know what you have been talking about so I won't press questions. Maybe one of these nights you could bring the girls down here as well." She smiled at that.

"Maybe then everypony could start bonding with you then." She said with a smile as I loaded in the last of the iron and I left the bags as I picked up a few more empty bags and we walked further into the cavern when I decided maybe I should make it look like I am actually looking. "I can see some gold over here." I told her as I ran over to a chip in the wall and sure enough what I saw was correct as she ran over and used a spell on it and gasped.

"There would be enough gold here for about 5 bars... Enough for you to have a home." She then said. Well I guess the blacksmith was right.

"Well I got something else planned with these." I said with a smile as I started to chip away the rock surrounding it and she started to as well and soon we had uncovered a nice big load of it as I started to chip it away and then put it all into a bag.

After about an hour I had one full back of the gold and me and midnight both started to walk back towards the entrance as we also grabbed the bags of iron and as we reached the mines entrance we both dropped off our picks and helmets and we this time walked through the rain. "The armor really helps keeping me from getting cold and getting wet." I said as I watched the town come into sight.

"Well that's good. Just hope it doesn't get to much wear in it." She said with a smile.

"But how was your night last night?" I then asked her.

"Well when we all came home we all found you sleeping with your face in a mining book. What was up with that?" she then asked me.

"Well I wanted to learn more about mining here in the realm of night." She only smiled as we entered town.

"Well what now?" she then asked me.

"Now we take this to get smelted by the blacksmith." I said as she nodded and we made our way past the library and as soon as the blacksmith came into sight so I ran on ahead with the bags over my shoulders and in my hands and as I entered I found him rubbing his head. "Good night to you. I need to tell you something." I said as he smiled and took the bags and started to melt down the iron and gold. "You must not tell midnight of all the stuff I have stashed here." I said as he looked at me confused.

"Why?" he then asked me.

"Because I fear for something in my life that I never want to go through again." he only nodded as he started to melt the iron and poured the melted gold into bar slots just as midnight walked through the door.

"Pleasure to meet you Miss Midnight." He said as he bowed to her before getting back to work.

"Pleasure to meet you as well." She said as she walked over and sat down next to me. "So what did you mean when you had something else planned for the gold?"

"Just going to turn them into some things since I know I will find more gold after a while." She only looked at me rather curious before we looked back at the blacksmith to watch him take out the gold bars and then start to fill in the slots with melted iron and he then sat down near his forge.

"So how have you been miss midnight?" he then asked her.

"The nights have been very good but not the night with any rain." She then said with a smile. What the fuck is wrong with these ponies?

"That is good. And ben the bars are now all finished." He said as he walked over and then pulled out the iron bars and then loaded the iron and the gold into a single bag and we thanked him for what he did and as soon as midnight walked out of the room I looked at him.

"Be ready for me to return with several things for you to make." He nodded with a smile as I then ran out the door after midnight through the rain. As soon as we made it back to the library I pulled out a total of 6 stones all in an oval shape and they were all a dark pink. It took me a while searching through the gems I had to find these stones. These were actually quite rare. They were called mood stones like in my world except actual chemicals were used to create them. These were actually natural. And if they were dark pink it means that I was currently passive and I then put them back into the bag and I dropped it all off in the closet and I then looked at the clock to find it was near time for bed. Man we must have worked a lot today in the mines. Well for now I think it's time for me to hit the sack for tomorrow since I got to help the girls go through the forest. As I took out the pillow and the blanket I did the same thing I did the other nights and as soon as I closed my eyes I fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes I was surprised to find myself in my dream world which I actually rarely went to when I fell asleep. "That's because I brought you here." A voice said as I jumped and turned around to find moon walking towards me from behind me.

"You can control dreams?" I asked as she snickered a little.

"Yes I can. I have the same powers as my counterpart." She said.

"Well then why am I here?" I asked.

"I am here because I know something is troubling you." She said as I sighed.

"I rather not talk about it." I then said.

"It will not get easier until you talk about it." She said walking over as a couch and single seater appeared. That's what I called half couches. As she then laid down on the couch I then sighed before gripping my head and sighed once again.

"Only if I talk about before the day happened and I then talk about what actually happened tomorrow night." She nodded as I then sat down and began to remember my life before that day.

"Before that day… my family and I all had a normal life. While I was just starting high school I was starting to be treated as an outcast because of my weirdness and my color changing eyes whenever I was devoted in a single emotion. All my friends saw me as a freak when they found out what my little brother and sister could do. They thought I would eventually become one of them so they all started to avoid me. I worked hard to show them that I meant no one any harm but they all still considered me a freak. Also when I first entered high school my girlfriend had dumped me for another guy. I got good grades, was a good athlete, and I helped whoever I could. But she considered me a freak like the others when she heard about my brother and sister. But one day I had gained the trust of my friends once more and they all brought me to a party. During the party everyone avoided me because they all knew about me and my family. I had a few drinks but never got drunk as they all just stared at me amazed with every drink I consumed and I felt fine the entire time. Nothing bad had happened to me at that party and I was glad I had earned the trust of all of my friends once more. But then the next day when I went to school as I was coming out of the bathroom I could hear my friends talking so I hid myself so I could hear what they were saying. "He downed 5 doses!"

"He should have died!"

"Then next time we try harder. Liam anything stronger you could wip up?"

"I could but I would need one of his hairs to test its ability before we give it to him again."

I couldn't believe my ears with what I had been hearing. They had brought me to the party to kill me and I couldn't even notice it. I was heartbroken with what they had done so as I pretended I was walking out the bathroom normally as soon as they saw me they smiled but as soon as I reached them I put on a face of rage as my eyes turned red and I kicked away Liam and pushed away Sally as I then had Adam and John in a headlock. I was yelling at them for trying to kill me and it took about 6 teachers to get me to let go of them. And they had to use a sedative to do so. When I went through court I had pleaded my case and I for some reason was found not guilty… but my so called friends didn't have to face the charges of what they had done. So one morning I had woken up on the grass and when I looked around I found the house that owned the lawn… was burnt to the ground. And I then recognized the mailbox and I started to run. The house that had burned all the way to the ground and the worst part was… it was Liam's house…and as I got back to my house I pretended to still be asleep as my mom walked in and woke me up and I was a good pretender. The day was also a Saturday as well so I had no school as I got up and started to help my parents with their chores all around the house Luke I always did every Saturday since I was 8. But during the time I had lunch there was a knock at the door and when I answered it standing there were two police officers. As I welcomed them into our home and I made us all some tea they had started to discuss with me about a recent house burning. I claimed I knew nothing of the sort as they took me and my entire family to see the burned down house and as I ran over to it I started to rummage around the debris… and that was when I found the burnt skeletons of all of my used to be friends and I started to cry for their deaths as my family all ran over to see what had happened and they had all gasped at what they saw and even the officers were shocked at what I had found. Later I was taken to a hospital because I wouldn't communicate with anyone anymore due to what had happened as thoughts went through my mind. Was I the one that did it? Was I the one that took innocent lives? Did I break the family oath? These and many more questions were asked through my mind as they tried to get me to communicate once more. I ate in silence and not with anybody else. I just stayed in my room the entire day and night. And when I finally became a little bit social again. I was treated in school like I was a murderer. I had most likely killed the smartest person, the athletic person, the hottest person, and the most awesome person… and removed them from life."

"That's sounds horrible." She then said with some tears in her eyes.

"And the worst part is I don't even know if I did it." I then said as she hugged me as tears formed in my eyes.

"When you get back from your little treasure hunt tomorrow come to the castle." She said and I looked at her confused.

"Why?" I then asked her.

"Because all will then be revealed about that day… we had missed that day and all we got to do is ask the mirror…" she then said.

"What do you mean by the mirror?" I then asked.

"The mirror of destiny… it tells anypony's past, present, but ironically not future." He said and I perked up.

"Then expect me to be there after I get a few certain things made." She only smiled.

"Then I will await for thee. And you should also know we have been forced to stop the search for answers about your little brother and sister." I got a grim look on my face.

"I will still be there by the tomorrow." She only smiled.

"Your body should be waking up soon. Have a wonderful night." She said as I smiled and I then opened my eyes.
