A white hoof came up to steady a hat too large for the head it sat upon, and to push it out of the eyes of the wearer. The white 'Pegasus' colt wearing the hat shivered in his coat as he looked up to the moon; he was so cold, it was like winter out here and only getting colder. His daddy had talked his aunt into letting them stay with her for a while, but things weren't looking good for either of them right now. Thanks to this night that just didn't seem to want to end, farmers (like his daddy and aunt) weren't doing so good; the one good thing was that it was looking like his mommy was going to be helping out at the school he was going to be attending soon. It didn't occur to him that it might be awkward to go to a school where his mom was a teacher, as she had taught him all the things his dad couldn't for as long as he could remember. But, thanks to his aunt and dad being rather busy, he'd opted to go out; his dad had said it was okay, on the condition that he wear his coat and keep his hat on at all times. Now, Harmony was walking the nighttime streets of Ponyville, looking up at the lanterns that lit them, and pretty much exploring his new home to his heart's content; just to see what he could find. |

He should have been asleep... But no. Sonic Wings was testing what seemed to be a silent firework. Well, not silent enough, but sure would not disturb anyone... Unless someone slept above the clouds, around the exploding rockets. All light and flash, barely any noise. On a hoof, a notepad. On his mouth, a pen. He wrote the results silently. He was sitting there, in the streets. Luckily, none complained of his experiment yet. Perhaps it was silent enough, but he wanted them to make not a single noise. His thrusters were ready to blast off at a flick of his muscles, probably to catch any rocket who could stray... |

Chronius emerged from the shadows with a shiver. That feeling was just so odd, odd and tiring it seemed. If he wanted to get any better with these new powers, he'd need to try getting used to them. He shook his head and gave a yawn. Perhaps a quick rest and then he would head back home. he tapped his claws and began to stretch when he noticed a small Pegasus in a hat. It seemed a bit late for a colt to be out on the streets alone, perhaps he ought to offer a bit of help. "Excuse me young one, are you lost?" he said trying to seem as unintimidating as he could. |

Moon had been relaxing in the clouds. It was nice and quiet, despite it being permanently night ponies had managed to slip back into the work/sleep cycle normally brought about by sunrise and sunset. That was before somepony thought it was a good idea to start a firework show. She'd been surprised by how quiet it was, but that didn't make it any less bright. It took her less than a moment to realize who was behind this. Moon stuck her head out from the underside of the cloud to see who was about before spiraling down to the ground. "Sonic," she said patiently when she was close enough to be heard "I know you've got your own personal test site, and even if you didn't you could borrow mine. But if you're going to fire rockets up into the air don't do it near a cloud somepony could be sleeping on." She scrunched her eyes as another too bright firework went off "Or forget that just because they're quieter they're any less bright." she gave him a gentle smile to show there where no hard feelings before plodding over to the young colt she'd spotted from the air. She lowered herself so her soft green eyes met his own and spoke softly to the young colt "Hey there little fella," her natural Marecian accent more tempered and neutral than it had been "I'm Moon Chaser and this Kirin here is Chronius, don't worry he's not as scary as he looks." she gave him what she hoped was a disarming smile "What's your name?" |

Harmony froze, not at all an unreasonable reaction considering the temperature at the moment. However, there was more to his freezing than just how cold it was. Simply put, in the dark and the night- no matter what Princess Luna thought- light and shadow would play on a young foal's imagination and make the most mundane things into the stuff of nightmares. As such, though he meant no disrespect, Harmony actually jumped in fright at what he saw as a big, scary monster. The appearance of another pony didn't really do much to help either, as he had learned to not be overly trusting of other ponies thanks to what had happened at his old home. However, he was also taught to not be rude. So, with those two instincts clashing, he finally addressed the pony. "H-h-harmony, M'am." |

Without a second thought, Sonic Wings put out the fuse with his hoof as Moon Chaser asked him. "Right away, Moon. Sorry if I interrupted your sleep and-" he said to her, but soon his eyes went on Harmony. For a while, he felt a strange urge to hug that foal and call him cute. But he fought said urge and tagged along with Moon Chaser in the approach. "You forgot me, eh?" Sonic Wings said and poked her gently on the side, before turning his attention to the foal. "Harmony is your name... A fancy one, I must say. Mine is Sonic Wings. Sorry if my rockets woke you up too, but I have been booted from the test site tonight. Good thing these were my Silent Star Missiles." his thrusters retracted into sleep. |

Chronius gave a bow and to the colt and smiled. He was a bit annoyed with himself, after all he should have realized that the child might be frightened, but he supposed there wasn't much he could do about that now. He raised his head and looked to the others. "Ah, Moon Chaser, nice to see you again, and although I've not yet had the privilege I'm glad to see you as well Sonic Wings. You really must show me more of those rockets of yours, I dare say I've never seen anything quite like them." He turned back to Harmony and removed his mask. Perhaps that would help him seem a bit frightening. "It's as Miss Moon says, I'm really just a giant softy, It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. So Harmony what are you doing out alone in the endless night?" |

"Soft headed at least." She chuckled, clearly meaning no real harm "And you know I could never forget you Sonic, I just thought you'd still want to play with your toys, my complaints or not, and not have us all gather round this colt and scare him half-way to Ishtakhriots embrace. Talking about playing with toys, I'm sure me and Sonic would be happy to put on a show and swing you a free invite Chrono, if you thought todays practice was impressive you haven't seen the real toys me and Sonic can produce." Moon backed away a little and tried to make herself appear as small and non-threatening as possible "Well aren't you a well spoken colt, but please feel free to call me Moon, or Miss Moon if you'd prefer. So where have your mum and dad got to lil' chap?" |

Harmony pulled his hat down with a hoof, it was a nervous habit of his that had been learned in an effort to hide himself from all the mean ponies that had wished to harm him. "O-okay, M'am." He didn't really intend to slip back into what had long since become a habit thanks to his mommy and daddy, he just did it. As such, he didn't even realize his action as he turned to look at the 'kirin'. No matter what they said about him, the stranger still looked like a big, scary monster to him and there wasn't much that could change that. However, he was trying to be polite, best to at least return the favor. "Momma is down at the school, seeing if she can get a job teaching magic to the unicorns. Daddy is back with aunt Carrot Top, helping move everything into her house; so we can stay there until we can find a house for us." |

"Long time no see, Chronius." Sonic Wings smirked to him, before turning his focus to Moon Chaser, "Correct. Lately I'm aimming to decrease the disturbance factor of a rocket, so it can be launched near places where noise usually leads to trouble.", another shift of focus, this time to Harmony, listening to him. "So, you recently got here...", he said when the little one finished speaking, "Boy, I bet you'll like it here. Is rather peaceful, you have someone to assist you in every corner, it's a really nice place... You... Are from Canterlot, right? I mean: your manners are similar to those noble ones... Hah, I bet you are noble too!", he chuckled heartly. |

Chronius took a few steps back from the group. It was clear that he was causing the child at least a bit of distress. He supposed it was just something that came with being part dragon. Especially dressing the way he did. Still, he wanted to try his best to assuage the colts fears. Perhaps it would just be best if he left entirely, after all he knew that Moon Chaser and Sonic Wings could definitely take care of this situation unassisted. However he shook that idea from his mind rather quickly. One of the points of his new mark was to stop giving up on things. Perhaps he just need a bit of time. "Well, a soft head would explain why I wear this mask would it not?" he said laughing. "But, my, my, nobility! It's my honor your lordship!" he said with a light chuckle. "Well if your father should require any help moving I'd be delighted to assist. Almost as delighted as taking up your offer dear Moon Chaser." |

"Canterlot?" Moon laughed "Don't you recognise the melodic tones of a Marecian accent when you hear one? Like Music to my ears." she turned back to the young colt giving him a soft smile "And you're still calling me Ma'am? Tsk tsk, you're as bad as Lord Noblesse" her voice still held a playful edge, clearly not to upset, "It is Marecia you're from? Up near Trottingham judging by the accent, my part of the world though I haven't been back there in years. Tell me, do the colts still tell that stupid rumour about the old rainbow factory?" Moon laughed, clearly recalling a treasured memory. "You know that's where I got my cutie mark." Moon didn't feel like mentioning that he would've definitely seen her families estates, or played in one of the many parks they owned. It seemed crass. "Well feel free to tell Mum and Dad that Miss Moon Chaser will gladly help them find a house in this area and Mr Chronius will help them move. We could even have the cakes through them a welcome party; though I understand some ponies don't like to cause a fuss." |

Harmony's hoof went back up to his hat and pressed it down even harder. The simple fact was that, with that one comment, Moon Chaser had become much more scary than any dragon monster. The ponies in Trottingham had chased him and his family out of the country thanks to something that he had no control over, and he didn't want to do that to his parents again. "I-I'll tell them, M'a- Miss Moon Chaser." He really didn't want to annoy her with his verbal tics, or she might do like all the other ponies had. "M-mister Chronius, Sir?" He moved away from the pegasus and to the dragon monster, hoping he could keep her away. "You said you could help move things; my daddy might like that; would you like to come back home?" |
