"Hey Duster where we're going the hill is in the other side isn't? "
"We're doing something first." Duster answers, as she flew up to the clubhouse. "Well come on, you three, are so slow."
"We're not slow Duster not all of us live for speed like you."
the CMC gathered and passed three wrapped boxes to Harry, Hermione, and Ron.
"Duster what are these it's still to early for gifts." Ron and Hermione look at each other confused as well.
"Just open them, will ya?" Scootaloo states, as she and the others were wearing their own cloaks.
The three open the box and see three cloaks all bearing the crusaders mark on the back.
"Oh how cool you got us cloaks like your." Ron holds his up and see it a bit small on him.
"Oops, I'll ask my sister if she can make a human size version of our cloaks." Sweetie Bell states, as she looked at the other three. She then smiled as all four of them yelled "WELCOME TO THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!"
Everyone joins in in the as Ron and Hermione hugs the fillies in thanks. Harry just smiles glad that all his friends are getting along so well.
"Well, we know that you can't earn Cutie Marks, but we didn't want you to feel left out of the sisterhood, now brother and sisterhood of the Cutie Mark Crusaders." Apple Bloom explains
"True but just the fact that you let us join is a great honor and we'll wear our cloaks with pride."
"Now lets think of ways of us ponies, to earn our cutie marks, you two can help with the thinking of things to try." Duster states as she looked at the roll of paper that had 'x' marks that crossed off failed ideas.
Hermione looks over at the list and studies it "Wow thats some list you all made so far but tell me have you tried just something you like cause all i see is some rather dangerous things list here."
"Wasn't that dangerous, and we have to try everything to find out what we're special in, so we can get are Cutie Marks." Sweetie Bell answers
"I agree but pony catapulting really and no one was hurt?"
"That was Scootaloo's idea." Duster states, as she hovered in mid air. Scootaloo looked up, then looked away and the flighted filly landed ashamed, she was flying and her best gal pal wasn't, "Its alright, you're wings will grow, someday."
"Don't worry scootaloo I still have problems flying and just started when i got to Hogwarts. "
"Yeah and I've seen you on that scooter of yours you can give most human broom fliers a run for their money. "
"Broom fliers you can't fly on a broom" sweetie bell points out.
"Wizards and witches can." Harry answers
"Hey maybe we can try that for our next crusade."
"You have to have human magic." Harry replies
"Maybe at that school of your but I'm sure that Twilight knows a spell that can make brooms fly then we'll be the cutie mark crusaders broom fliers."
"I doubt it." Hermione replies
"Plus how would you ponies even hold on Harry has to be a human just to use his broom." Ron points out to them.
"Good point." the four responds
"So that idea is out , thank merlin for that." Ron mutters the last part.
The next few days passed quickly, Ron and Hermione were still talking about Hearthwarming play, and Michi was in the kitchen quietly singing to herself.
Hermione walks in looking for a snack and heard Michi's song "Um Michi what is that your singing it's lovely."
"Its just a song that we ponies sing about Equestria." Michi answers, her muzzle fur darkening in a blush.
"Well I think its great, that's something I've noticed you ponies seen to love to sing, why is that?"
"I don't know, we just do. We don't have very many facial expressions, and our clapping is different then yours. Most things we're alike, others we're not." Michi replies, as she used magic to a platter of veggies on the table.
"Well it doesn't matter the simple fact your singing is wonderful i wish i could, Here let me help,"
"I think I like the simple country life, just tending to the every day life." Michi states, as she went about gathering bread, cucumbers, and everything else to make lunch.
"I agree living here seems so peaceful, This so much better than London."
"Not that peaceful. We have are fair share of trouble." Twilight states as she, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack along with the other Cutie Mark Crusaders came trotting into the room.
"I guess so but it's still better than the human world i think." Just then they heard something crash upstairs.
"What in my own name is going on up there." Michi muttered, "Excuse me, ladies, I think I have to deal with two colts."
She reached Harry's room in time to heard "No Ron it's step step turn then dip."
Michi opened the door, "What in the name of Equestria is going on in here?"
What she saw, made her stare. 'Umm Hi sis, nothing going on." Harry said from Ron's arms.
Michi blinked "Not I am not sure I want to know, just don't break my floor."
"No problem we won't if somepony would stop being all left hooves."
Ron blushes and just drops Harry on the floor.
Michi turned and went back downstairs, to find everyone else in the living room.
"So darling what those two colts up to this time."
Michi just shook her head, "I do not want to know, I am not prepared for that speech yet."
Rainbow just laughs while Fluttershy just hides behind her mane and the crusaders look confused.
"We'll explain when you're older, sugarcube." Applejack promised
"But i want to know now if rainbow thinks is funny i want to know the joke," Scootaloo asked
Soon it was time for lunch as the two boys came downstairs and sat at the table.
Michi decided that they would head back to the human world early, because she wanted to get a head start on the proposals of the Minister.
Once they got back from Equestria the trio got to put up all the gifts front the ponies and hung their special cloak with pride.
Michi wondered the empty halls, she didn't know what she was doing, she just needed time by herself, she went to one of the corridors, overlooking the grounds, placing her front hooves on the window sill, she laid her head down, on them, staring out the winter lands.
She stayed up there for most of the day her only visitor was Hedwig.
Near nightfall she heard Harry calling her name. "Michi, where are you? There's something i need you to see?"
Michi moved and nearly fell on her muzzle, her front legs were so stiff from staying in one place.
Harry found her as he flew by the tower "Sis you okay?" he asked as he landed near her.
"You try being lost in thought, and then try to move...not a pretty image." Michi replies
"I guess so I never had that happen just yet. Oh before i forget i found this package in ny room the note says it belonged to your dad, so i figure i should give it to you."
Michi blinked in confusion.
Harry passed the package to her it gave a soft crinkle in his magic.
"If you found it, it belongs to you." Michi replies
"No, you're the oldest and I'm sure dad would have wanted you to have it."
"Harry, this is not open for discussion, if it was in your room it was meant for you. I might be the oldest but I have no blood ties to James Potter." Michi replies
"Fine, but i still think it should be yours." he begins to open the package and find a cloak that looks big enough to fit Luna and still have room.
Michi skidded backwards at the sight of the cloak, her eyes wide in shock, disbelief and sadness.
"Sis, what's wrong." as he drops the cloak and move closer
"That was James' cloak." Michi whispered
"Well yeah,the note said so but it's something else like you seen a windigo?"
Michi turned and fled
Harry just stared at her them grabs the cloak and fled as well he flew to his room and threw the cloak in his trunk. Then went to find his sister.
Michi went straight to professor McGonagall. "I, Princess Dimensional Rift, Ambassador of Equestria, native born of the Wizarding World, Demand to see Dumbledore!"
McGonagall looks startled for a second and then stood and led the princess to the office where Dumbledore was sitting reading an old tome.
"Michi, so good to see you again, did you have a good trip back home?"
"Do not address me so informal, I am Princess Dimensional Rift to you, Headmaster." Michi states as she snorted and pawed the floor, she was angry.
Dumbledore saw the change then took the look of a proper headmaster .
"You will tell me why you gave the invisibility cloak that belonged to my stepfather, James Potter to my younger brother." Michi states, her green eyes blazed with fire.
"Your highness it was the will of James the he received that cloak his first Christmas here." Dumbledore answers, "If it upsets you I am sorry i should have given it to you first."
"No, what upsets me more is he ever allowed you to borrow it. If we still had the cloak, one of us would have still had a parent." Michi states, "do not ever do things without my knowledge, if it concerns my brother, or the Crowns of the Equestria, you will come directly to me. I refuse to be treated as some common beast, I've had enough."
Dumbledore fell back in his chair by the force of will the young Alicorn was using. "Your highness, I promise you that all things involving your brother and the land of Equestria will be brought before you."
Michi nods, before turning to McGonagall, who had turned ashen at the exchange. "What happened to Padfoot?"
"Young Sirius was unfortunately arrested the night your parents died and is now in Azkaban."
Michi plopped down on her haunches, her eyes widen in disbelief, she kept shaking her head, something was wrong with this, "Something is wrong, this isn't right...Padfoot wouldn't...he couldn't..."
Both of the humans look at her wondering what she was thinking "Your highness if you know something or even have a clue please tell us."
"My memories are from a four year old perspective, I do not remember much, but I remember momma and daddy talking to Padfoot about something that he didn't want to be..." Michi replies
"Was it about him being a keeper of something" McGonagall asked softly.
"Yes, I believe so." Michi answers, as she tried to remember, she buried herself in her studies to forget the memories of happier times with her mother and stepfather.
McGonagall glares at Dumbledore. "I knew it he wasn't their keeper he never would betray them we must go to the minster and fix this at once."
"I can get you there faster." Michi offered
"Yes we must do this right now and get him out of there at once."
Michi turned to the doorway, and called upon her magical talent, the doorway shimmered as the ministry's lobby came into focus.
They walked in to the lobby and marched into Amelia Bones' office to find her sitting there reading a report.
Madam Bones stood and went over to the trio confused as to why they were here in her office.
"I am Princess Dimensional Rift, Daughter of Lily Potter, and I believe you have an innocent man captive."
"Your highness, if this is true then we must fix the error in justice, who is the man you wish to be freed?"
"Sirius Black." McGonagall answers for Michi as she seen the alicorn drawing a blank on the name.
