Greetings, ladies and gents, and welcome to another chapter of Harmonic Heroes: Quest For Equestira. I hope your going to enjoy it as much as I had writing it and now on to the review.
kyrogue23: That will remain a secret for now. Yeah, it was the obvious choose.
And now its story time.
It was a sunny day and Celestia's sun was shining brightly on Shoveitupyourass Street 15, Skywalker and Twilight were currently training their abilities.
Skywalker for his up coming test and Twilight because he had promised to help her train. The purple wearing Magi was currently trying to use her magic to lift a train wagon, though she wasn't having much success. "Come on, move that train wagon already." Skywalker told her as he was practicing his hand to hand combat stance.
"Can't you see I'm trying!?" Twilight shouted back irritated as she released her magic, she had been at this for an hour now but she hadn't made any progress.
Skywalker scoffed as he walked up to her, "Do or do not. There is no try.", he said and to prove a point he simply raised his hand and the train wagon started to float several feet from the ground.
"Your magic is like a muscle, Twily. The more you use it, the easier it will become.", he explained before instructing her to start using her telekinesis in more mundane activities.
"Maybe I'm not as powerful as I though I was." She said letting her head drop. She suddenly felt Skywalker's hand cup her face, making her look into his amber eyes.
"Don't say that. Don't even think that." he told her as he let go of her face, "Celestia told me about what happened during your entrance exam. Assuming E=mc^2, you making Spike grow to that size means you were unleashing power roughly equivalent to a 750 kt nuclear bomb."
This got a confident smile on Twilight's face and the two started a small sparing match.
After a few more minutes of training, Skywalker and Twilight had to stop for both had other errands to run. The two of them walked to the front door as Skywalker was heading for the market place and decided that they could walk there together.
As they walked past the living room they could hear the voices of Phoenix suddenly shout. "Why does this crap keep happening!? Yesterday Sweet Apple Achers almost got stolen, today Messiah is wasting his time with Fluttershy, tomorrow it's Messiah Vs Celestia!"
"Is he?...", Twilight asked as the two slowly sneaked to the front door.
"I think he is trying to suppress his feelings for that blonde girl he has a crush on using a boatload of LSD and other stuff he shouldn't be using.", Skywalker said after closing his front door behind him, and the two were off.
As they entered the market place, the two friends said goodbye to one another before each went their separate way. Not fifteen steps later, Skywalker ran into another of of his friends, his favorite rainbow haired Seraph.
The two friends decided to get something to drink at Sugarcube Corner, the both of them hadn't talked to each other in awhile.
"You're giving me that look again. If you've got something to say, just spit it out." Skywalker said as he downed another beer, making his best friend chuckle.
"Are you sure you want to encourage me? I might be about to confess my undying love." Rainbow said tipsy, the tips of her ears a little red.
"It would never work between us, Dashie. Your to much maintenance for me." Skywalker said in jest as both friends chuckle once again.
"So, you and princess Luna... I need some details. Did you go down on one knee? Did she jump you? Did you swear eternal vows of love, or is this just a physical thing?" Rainbow teased making it his turn to blush.
"I-I don't see how that's any of your business." Skywalker stammered out making his slightly tipsy friend burst out in laughter.
"Fine, but if you don't tell me, I'm just going to have to make it up.", she told him in between her laughing. Apparently it was true what Sutakira had theorized, Seraph's couldn't hold their alcohol very well.
Meanwhile, in another World. Mizuki was sitting on a sofa as she looked out the window, she couldn't find her master for the past week, she knew he took his reading seriously but this was kinda ridicules.
She was brought out of her train of thought as she felt someone sit down next to her, "Hiya, Mizu!" a male voice said cheerfully. Turning to her side, she saw a handsome man, he had lightly tanned skin, his platinum blond hair was reaching the back of his neck, two hair spike gave the impression he had cat ears but she knew it was just his hair.
His yellow cat eyes looked at her with mischief, seeing as he was dressed in some jeans and a simple orange t-shirt she assumed he wasn't on a mission. "Malak, are you slaking off again?", she told him sternly, she had at least a working relationship with her Inner Circle colleagues, aside from Byron of course, but Malak or Mal as she usually called him, was one of the few she had an actual friendship with.
"Slacking off? My Mizu, you wound me!" he said as he gave her a cat like grin, "I have you know that I completed my mission with success! The Los Angeles citizens were left shocked today following a vicious gun battle between the LAPD...and me! They were all like, 'BANG! BANG! Ya filthy mutant!', and I was all like 'Oooh, you wascaly wabbit! You got me!'.", he said standing up, as Mizuki couldn't help but chuckle.
Sure, Malak wasn't all there, but she couldn't deny he got results. Then again, she had to admit none of them were all there, but that was what made them so close.
After flying Rainbow back to her house and tucking her in bed, Skywalker decided to head back to the Market Place to do what he was intended to do in the first place, buying groceries.
It didn't took him long to find everything he needed, "It'd be better if Adam ate out more. That guy isn't getting a balanced intake of nutrients... Come to think of it, all my guy friends ever eat are instant noodles and stuff like that. Except maybe Big Mac, but he doesn't live with us.", his thought were interrupted as he saw his favorite pink haired Seraph walking to the Asparagus Stall but a lot of other people cut in line.
Much to his anger, none of them showed any remorse as Fluttershy dripped off to the end of the line. "Fluttershy, you mustn't let them treat you that way." Skywalker said to her as she muttered about it not being a big deal, "It's bigger than big. You are a girl with a problem." to prove a point he cut in front of her.
"Oh, go right ahead, Jason. You first.", she muttered shyly.
This made him shake his head in irritation, "Right there. That's the problem. You've got to stop being such a doormat, a pushover, a Sutakira. You've got to stand up for yourself. Please for me?" he asked her as he looked her in the eyes.
Fluttershy nodded slowly as she gave a deep inner sigh, "I can never say no to those amber orbs.", she thought to herself as she got back to the Asparagus Stall but another Terra, by the name of Gizmo if Skywalker remembered correctly, cut in front of her buying up the last asparagus.
Skywalker couldn't understand why the citizens of Ponyville liked them so much, it was one of the few foods he couldn't stand himself.
Fluttershy was about to walk off but Skywalker stopped her and told her to watch how to handle this. "Hold it right there, Mister." Skywalker said making Gizmo stop in his tracks. Turning around he could see Skywalker standing over him with his arms crossed.
"Uh, who, me?" he asked a little intimidated by the Knight Of The Wind standing over him.
"Of course you. Do you think its cool to cut in line?" Skywalker asked gaining a confused look from Gizmo as Skywalker placed an arm around him, "You see cool guys like you and me can't do that. I know you wanna do the right thing because you're cool and strong, and cool and strong guys are always nice to everybody to set a example, am I right?" making Gizmo somehow even more confused.
"You... You think I'm cool?" he asked in disbelief as Skywalker gave him a big nod. Gizmo had to admitted that none ever called him 'cool'. Now it was Skywalker's turn to look be confused, "You are cool, and just between cool guys, could you give my pretty friend the last asparagus?" as he said that he puts a Bit in Gizmo's pocket for the trouble.
"Uhm... Alright then!" Gizmo said as he gave Skywalker the asparagus. Skywalker gave him a bro fist as he thanked him and the two went on their way.
Skywalker walked back, tossing her the asparagus which she barley caught, "See, that's not so hard, is it?".
She nodded before Skywalker asked whats next on her list, which were tomatoes. "Alright, let's get you some tomatoes.", he said as they walked towards the tomatoes Stand.
Fluttershy grabbed the amount of tomatoes she needed, she place one bit on the counter but before she could leave the stallholder informed her that the tomatoes were two bits now.
"Oh, okay. I don't wanna argue about it." Fluttershy said as she dig through her bag looking for her bag of coins but Skywalker stopped her.
"What do you think you're doing?", Skywalker giving the stallholder a death glare.
"Minding my own business, maybe you should try it.", she suggested rudely but Skywalker wasn't backing down, not when a friend of his was taking advantage of.
"Two bits for tomatoes is outrageous. One bit is the right price." Skywalker said before adding threateningly, "Or it will get ugly.", folding his arms as he leaned back.
Tomato stallholder looked a bit nervous before treating to call the guards, but all this did was made him laugh. "Really? You think the guards are gonna take down the Knight of The Wind?" he said as the Tomato stallholder's face paled as she realized who she was talking to.
"Knight Of The... Oh shit! Ser Skywalker!? A-Alright, take it easy. Here's your tomato's, on the house.", she said trying to appease the Knight who accepted before giving her a genuine, "Thank you."
After helping Fluttershy finding everything on her grocery list, he was helping her carry everything back to her place. Skywalker was curious how Fluttershy earned her Cutiemark, because her special talent would fit more with a Terra instead of a Seraph.
It was then about what happened to her at flight camp, Skywalker could only feel disgusted. "You fell to the ground in full view of a large crowd and no one tried to save you? Does Cloudsdale have some kind of Sparta-like eugenics policy for Seraph who are weak fliers!?", he shouted, taking her aback.
Fluttershy always saw him as a cool, calm, collected and handsome guy, if a bit odd at times, but she felt kinda happy that something that happened to her so long ago would make him worry about little old her.
Soon they arrived at Fluttershy's Little Cottage, after entering the house Skywalker placed the groceries in her kitchen when Fluttershy suddenly gave him an sorrowful look.
"Hey, what's up?" he asked as she explained that because he had spend nearly his entire day with her, he lost an entire day to train for his upcoming test which was the next day, Skywalker tried to reassure her that it was nothing to worry about, seeing as it was most likely a combat orientated test, and that was something he excelled at.
"But what if its not!? What if its a Geography test!?" she continued worried.
"Geography? What do I care about geography? All the bad guys attack Canterlot or Ponyville anyway, and it's not like I'm going anywhere." Skywalker said in a matter of fact tone before waving her goodbye.
"Jason, I don't know how to thank you." she told him, making him stop in his tracks.
"That's a weird skill to be lacking." Skywalker noted.
"I mean... You do so much and you ask nothing for it in return... The least you deserve is to be appreciated.", she told him as he gave her a soft smile.
"Thanks, Flutters." he said before flying off and suddenly realizing that he hadn't got any groceries for himself.
Mizuki and Malak where discussing various topics before they got about who would play their Inner Circle colleagues in a movie. "Alright, who would play Lord Morgenstern?" Malak asked, but before she could response a deep voice spoke up from behind them.
"I am so sorry to interrupt your discussion you are having, but could I borrow Mizuki for a few moments." the voice asked as they turned around to see Morgenstern standing behind them. They had no idea how long he had been standing there, but knowing him, he could have overheard everything they had said.
Giving a quick nod, Mizuki stood up to follow her master as he walked away. Morgenstern suddenly stopped walking, almost making her bump into him. "Oh and as for your question. Either Michael Fassbender or Sir Ian McKellen.", he couldn't help but give an inner chuckle at his follower's nervous reaction.
Both master and student walked through the courtyard of the castle, the sun shining down on them as he decided to speak up, "So you failed to take out one of the EoH users. This failure is going on your permanent record.", Morgenstern said not bothering to look at her.
Mizuki quickly shook her head, "But master, I have this feeling about this guy, the one that also was at Arendelle. He's like me, I thought maybe we could convince him to join our cause... or maybe all of them." she said trying to defend he reason for not finishing that Little Chick.
He seemed to ponder this for a while, "Their powers could be a great asset. Do you believe they could be turned to see our way?" he asked her. Mizuki felt a warm fire burn inside of her, she felt it every time her master asked her opinion.
"We all stumble through the dark before we find the light, don't we? And shouldn't we help our kind, shouldn't we?" she said, gaining a amused chuckle from her master, she felt her heart skip a beat.
"Indeed. You have become wise, my young Mizu." he compliment her, making her blush, she was happy for the compliment but all she was doing was following his example.
"You might be happy to know that I have been sniffing around a little and found the entrance to Tartarus." he informed her making her look at him in awe.
"You found it by sniffing around?" she asked.
He gave a bemused chuckle before adding, "Actually, there were two high ranking Royal Guards who were positively delighted to tell me everything they knew... provided I stop dangling them headfirst over the side of a building."
