I cant really think of anything witty to say before this chapter so just enjoy. As always all characters are owned by their respective creators with exception of my OC.

The rain came down and the wind blew through the trees. The mane six gathered around for the funeral of their newest friend Takashi. Everyone cried and asked each other why it had happened this way. Even after the ceremony had ended Rarity stayed as if she couldn't bring herself to leave his side. She had deeper feelings than she had known before. She sat in silence wondering if given the chance how things would have ended up. The pain in her chest was unbearable and she pondered if she could go on living. Just then a massive boom from some thunder vibrated so loud that her chest seemed to rattle. It was then that Rarity sat up from her horrible nightmare. She and her friends were asleep in Takashi's hospital room where he slept. He had lost a lot of blood from his ordeal but his wounds were healing well. Why was she having such horrible nightmares? Takashi was alive and well on his way to good health.

"You're sweet to be here with me," I said eyes still closed.

Flinching with shock Rarity jumped up and placed her front hooves around Takashi's neck and sobbed," Takashi your awake I was so worried about you, we all were."

It was true as I let my eyes wonder around the room I saw every one of my new friends. They had been by my side during my recovery even Rainbow Dash who didn't seem like a mushy type of mare. I felt sore and I was almost wrapped up from head to toe.

"What happened, how long have I been out," I asked Rarity.

"Well Dear you've been out for a few days you had lost a lot of blood but Dr. Hooves has assured that you'd make a full recovery. You managed to stop Discords tantrum and he's currently being held at Canterlot Castle till an inquiry can be completed." she said still saddened at my injuries.

I sat up and felt so sore in my leg it had been a few days since id been out I could tell because of the pain. If I didn't work my leg out daily then it got painfully sore.

"Wait what are you doing you're not recovered yet, "Rarity said rather loudly waking every pony up.

"Oh sugar cube you're awake thank Celestia but you shouldn't be moving just yet," said Applejack with a tear in her eye.

"YAY WE CAN THROW THAT PART-OOF," Pinkie Pie started in classic Pinkie fashion before Rainbow Dash elbowed her in the ribs.

Smiling at Pinkies theatrical fall she said," It's great to see that you're safe after being so cool defeating Discord all by yourself that was 20% cooler than what I could have done myself."

Poking her head from around the back of the group I heard a small voice say," Thank you so much for not hurting Discord he may be a handful but he's not bad."

"You really shouldn't be moving around just yet, at least not until the doctor has given you the ok," Twilight insisted.

It felt good to have so many who cared so much about me. I had lived alone for quite a while and forgot what having friends was like. But it had been a few days and I had already missed my appointment with the Princesses and there was the ordeal with Discord to straighten out.

"Yes I know but I must meet with the Princesses they had been expecting me and I don't want them to be kept waiting," I responded.

Just then a voice I hadn't recognized filled the room, "No need to worry about that once we heard of your troubles we headed here to await your recovery."

I looked toward the door way to lay eyes on a beautiful pony with her coat white as snow. Her mane was rainbow colored and seemed to flow without the presents of a breeze. She was much taller than the rest of the ponies and had both wings and a horn. Following close behind her was another pony who resembled her only slightly smaller and had a dark purple coat almost black with a dark blue mane that looked like it had twinkling stars throughout it. Atop their heads lay crowns so I could only assume they were the princesses of this land.

I dropped to my knees and bowed without thinking as if I were in the presents of my villages Hokage," Your Majesties.

"Please there is no need to be so formal especially since you must be in so much pain. Please lay back down we have much to discuss," the white pony insisted.

With a magical aura I was lifted and placed on my hospital bed as everyone made way for the princesses. Glancing around the room the princess made it known that she wished to speak with me and and her sister privately. Reluctantly everyone filed out save for the two princesses who took up place on either side of me.

"I'm sure you have many questions as do we but first introductions should come first I am Princess Celestia and this is my sister Princess Luna," Celestia said with a slight bow.

Princess Luna was next to speak," we know you are not of this world and have many questions particularly as to if you pose a danger to Equestria but we are also curious about the world you come from."

"To make it easier and less confusing for us we would like your permission to read your thoughts with our magic. It will not hurt but we would be delving into your memories and thoughts," said Celestia.

I thought about it for a minute I suppose it wouldn't hurt to do things this way I had nothing to hide. The only thing is they would see the destructive power I was capable of. Would they arrest me or have me put to death I was beginning to get scared of the possibilities. In the end I decided to allow it maybe they wouldn't judge me too harshly.

"Very well I will allow you to read my thoughts but I ask that when you look that you pay close attention to who I am as a person and not what my world seems to be, "I replied with a sad look.

"Very well let us commence sister," Luna declared as I was touched by both horns.

I could feel my memories being played as if I were reliving them all over again. My days in the academy, and my rise through the ranks to Jonin. My brief membership to the ANBU black ops. All my fears, hopes, dreams, and pain all in the matter of minutes. And before I knew it we came to the past few days and the trouble with Discord. It was a rush that left my stomach turning and head pounding.

"Do not worry Takashi the effects will wear off in time,"Celestia said with comfort.

The sisters stopped and looked at each other as if their thoughts were one. It was nerve wracking waiting to see what they were up to and what was to become of me. I figured they were speaking with each other through some kind of telepathy. This wasn't unusual to me as there were clans in my world that could do the same from great distances.

"We have seen much in your past; you come from a world full of war and endless fighting. You seem to be part of an armed force that protects your village from others like yourself. But your don't seem inherently evil despite your deadly capabilities. We saw this when you came and had a run in with Discord. Without a doubt we feel you could have easily killed Discord without that much of an effort but you choose to spare him. We also sense that you have conflicting feelings as to whether or not it's ok for you to have feelings for beings like us and that you also have feelings for more than one in our world," Celestia explained with a regal tone.

"Despite the risks you could pose we don't feel that you are here to hurt anyone even someone that tried to hurt you first. So we decree that you may stay amongst us as long as you don't become a danger to anyone. As to your feelings you must decide this for yourself but keep in mind that we ponies mate for life and when we create such a bond it's not easily forgotten, "Luna continued.

"Are there any questions you might have for us before we return to Canterlot Castle,"Celestia asked.

I have so much on my mind and knew I had a lot of thought ahead of me but I knew one thing I had to ask.

"Yes I do have one thing at the moment. From what I can tell the abilities you possess here and the ones I possess are as different as night is from day. In my world as you say they could not fix the injury to my leg which keeps me in constant pain. Is there a possibility your magic could mend what they couldn't, "I said with one breath.

The sisters were silent at first then looked at each other and smiled.

"We will try but only time and rest will tell if it works or not," Celestia said.

With that both their horns began to glow and an aura surrounded my leg. The pain was agonizing and I started to sweat. Before I knew it I was drifting off into darkness again. I surly hope all this pain would be rewarded in the end. For I hadn't felt this pain since the day I received the injury that ended my career as a shinobi.

Stay tuned for the next chapter.
