Fly's Adventure in Equestria
5. The Party
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Why did I even go to Sugarcube Corner in the first place?" I said to myself. Pinkie was flying all over the place tending the party.
"Look at her go!" a stallion said. He had a red coat and an orange mane, he had fire for his cutie mark.
"Who?" I asked
"The mare on the dance floor! The only other pony who is acting weird is Pinkie Pie." he replied. I now saw the light purple mare. She had a long dark blue and purple mane slightly covering her horn, her cutie mark is a record with music notes.
"What's her name?" I asked the stallion.
"Diamond Dance, she is new in town. When she arrived Pinkie had a party similar to this for her." He said
"Thanks, see you... uh" I started
"Burnout" Burnout said.
"Yeah. See you... Burnout" I said and walked to the dance floor to try some moves out myself.
"Hey! You're new, I haven't seen you at any parties since I came here. Where are you from?" Diamond said
"I'm Christian, and I'm from Louisiana." I said nervously. Why am I nervous, all she said was hi and asked where I use to live. I miss home.
"Christian, huh, I haven't heard of Louisiana before. Where is that?" Diamond asked
"It is in the United States," I said. She had a puzzled look on her face. "You know, The United States of America."
"Where is that?" Diamond asked
"The western hemisphere. North America. EARTH!" I yelled a bit to loud
"Where is, Earth" Diamond asked
"Never mind, lets just say I am from a swamp."
"Okay, do you want to dance?" Diamond asked. I started to blush.
"I'm not that good at dancing, I usually tap my fingers to the beat of music..." I said. She seemed confused for a split second.
"Come on, I'll put you through the motions." She said in an excited way.
"Okay, I'll try at least." I said. She pulled me up onto the platform and started putting me through the motions with slight magic.
"See it's not that hard!" She stopped the magic "I stopped putting magic on you are you just keep on going!" She said
"Wait, what? I'm not on magic any more?" I said and slipped
"Shouldn't have told you that." she said.
"How good was I doing, for real, I don't want you to lie about it." I said
"You did good, better than I thought you would do." she said
"Thanks" I said. I then realized that she was flirting with me. I started blusing.
"Equestria to Christian! Speak!" Diamond said suddenly. I guess I was fazed by what was going on.
"S-sorry." I stuttered. I stuttered. I have never stuttered before in my life, I don't know why I did either.
"You fazed out all of a sudden." Diamond said.
"Y-yeah, I guess I d-did. I stuttered again.
"Is there something wrong?" Diamond asked.
"No, there is nothing wrong at the moment." I said. I guess I didn't stutter because I was defending myself.
"Oh, good. So, lets get a drink." She said cheerfully.
"Sure." I said and started walking to the refreshment table
"Need me to get a drink for you?" Diamond asked
"Why? I could get my own." I asked
"Unicorn magic, duh" She said with a stiffened chuckle.
"Right" I said with a chuckle of my own.
"Cheers!" We both said at once and started drinking our punch.
"Hey! Fly!" I heard a familiar voice
"huh?"
"It's me, Lyra!"
"Oh, hi Lyra. Haven't seen you since, uh, I first became a pony." I said sourly
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Lyra asked. I guess she heard the tone in my voice
"I miss my human life." I muttered
"Of course you would, if I was to be on Earth as a human, I would be miserable. I'm glad you're taking it well"
"Thanks, I guess I am taking it well" I said.
"Who's this?" Diamond said.
"Her name is Lyra, and she is interested in humans, which I used to be." I said meekly near the end
"That's okay, each of us go through hard times in our life." Diamond said.
"LYRA!!! Can you make a spell that will turn me back into a human?" I asked suddenly when the idea popped into my head.
"I'm not as good as Twilight at magic, but I can try." Lyra said nervously
"I could help with the spell if you need me to, Lyra and uh, what's your name?" We all turned around and saw a purple mare.
"Thanks Twilight, this is Fly by the way" Lyra said.
"Hi." I said nervously
"Hi." Twilight said back
"Wait a second. Who the hay is Fly?" Diamond asked
"Oh, that's me." I said
"I thought you said your name was Christian?" Diamond said
"It is! My friends just call me Fly." I said
"Ok, I'll keep calling you Christian, it sounds more special to me than Fly."
"Ok... You call me that. Twilight! Do you already have a spell like it?" I asked
"Yes, I have a spell somewhat like that, why?" Twilight asked
"I want to be a human again. Can you please use it. Please" I pleaded
"It is a short term spell, meaning it wears off after 12 hours." Twilight said
"I don't care about that, I just want to be a human again for this party." I said
"The party?" Twilight said with a confused look on her face.
"I miss hands, I cant carry my own drink at the moment. I need hands, NOW!" I said quickly
"Okay, here goes nothing" Twilight said as her horn lit up. The intensity slowly increased until it was the center of the party. The light enveloped me and I started to feel my body change. First my wings disappeared, then my face returned to a normal shape, then my hooves turned into hands and thank god shoes, then my coat was replaced by thank god clothes, then my hair turned back to normal, lastly my tail disappeared.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! How could I ever repay you?" I yelled
"It was no problem, no need to pay." Twilight said in between breaths
"But-" I started to say
"No buts, that what friends are for. Thank you for more practice." Twilight said. I realized that everypony was looking at me
"Hi...." I muttered. They looked for a second longer and got back to the party.
"Is this what you looked like?" Diamond said.
"Yeah, she got my hoodie down, too" I said cheerfully
"I'm glad she did, it looks nice on you." Diamond said.
"I guess it does, first thing first, I'm thirsty." I said. Diamonds horn started to glow.
"No need, I have hands." I said.
"I guess you are right." Diamond said a bit sadly
"Lets dance my way!" I said enthusiastically.
"Ok, lets try that." She said
"Wrap a front hoof around my waist and give me your other front hoof." I instructed her.
"Wont I fall?" She said
"Not is I am holding onto you, and you are holding onto me." I said calmly
"Okay, whatever you say, Christian." She said. We started a dance like that until Diamond got the hang of it and we started adding parts to it.
"That was fun" Diamond said
"That is a simple dance for humans, it is the only one that a pony might be able to do as well." I said
"It seems that the party is over, we are the last ones here." Diamond said to me.
"It appears so, what time is it?" I asked then remembered my watch. Might as well adjust it now.
"11:00 P.M. Man we are out late." Diamond said. My watch was correct somehow.
"FUCK!!! The front desk is closed!" I yelled out
"What do you mean?" Diamond asked
"I am staying at a hotel and now the front desk is closed, I cant get a room for the night anymore.
"You can stay at my place for the night." Diamond asked
"Might as well, the spell should wear off at about 10 o'clock in the morning, so I am human until then."
"Follow me!" Diamond said. I wonder why she even suggested her house.
"Wait for me!" I yelled trying to keep up with her trotting.
"Why are you so slow?" Diamond asked
"That's all humans, we aren't that fast in general, so we build stuff to help us go faster" I said
"Like what?" Diamond asked
"Cars, trains, airplanes, boats, stuff like that." I said
"What are those?" Diamond asked
"Vehicles, they help us travel." I say a bit enthusiastically
"Okay, here we are!" She said in front of a big house. It must have at least 4 bedrooms
"Nice house." I say a bit awestruck
"You haven't seen anything." Diamond says
