Introduction to the Colt 6
Thunder Cloud
Booming through the empty plains of equestria, Thunder Cloud, a yellowish pony with green eyes,a brown mane and a light build, zoomed towards Coltsville. Coltsville was (Believe it or not) filled with colts who helped each other; no matter the stakes. Flying at his top speed, Thunder Cloud left a yellow streak behind him, the appearance to any other colt looked as if a small lightning bolt was zooming through the sky at an unknown target, leaving a streak as well as a booming sound as he flew, it was as if a dragon were flying over Coltsville, roaring loudly as it flew. There is was in sight!- Coltsville! Home at last! He thought to himself, the many houses stood tall, stallions and Colts speaking happily to each other, working next to one another, Thunder Cloud landed, pulling one of his front hooves to the brim of the ground, his wings still extended to their full length as he starts trotting through the town, looking anxiously.
"I just gatta find the mayor of Coltsville!" Thunder said as he trotted up to his good friend Valkyrie. Valkyrie was a powerful unicorn, who had the appearance of an alicorn, due to his overwhelming knowledge of magic, giving himself temporary wings, however tough it was (Even though he couldn't fly well). "Val! Where's the mayor?!" Thunder asked, quickly spitting out the question.
"No time for greetings there Thunder?" Valkyrie said, lightly chuckling, not ever turning his attention to him
"No! A storm's a' brewin' an' we can't stop it!" Thunder Cloud said, frantically jogging in place as if he needed to go use the colts-room, his eyes wide "C'mon c'mon c'mon!!!!"
"Cool yourself Thunder, soon you're mane will catch fire!" Val said jokingly, lightly chuckling at his thought-to-be clever joke.
"This is not joke Val! We pegusai couldn't stop it, it's some sort of magical storm!" Thunder Cloud said, getting more serious, placing his muzzle in Valkyrie's face, his wrangled mane tickling Valkyrie's nose. Valkyrie pushed him back lightly, pulled up a hoof and waved it nonchalantly, fixing his mane, lightly pressing his seemingly-shining glasses up his snout.
"I can take care of it then! I'm strong in magic remember?" Val rolled his eyes "Now shoo, you're scaring my customers!" He replied, turning his attention to a stallion who walked up, they started conversing about some type of custom painting for a "special mare". Thunder cloud groaned as he galloped off, lightly flapping his wings to put more speed into his strut, he ran into Whispy, the wandering pony, rarely in town due to his adventurous nature.
"Whoa, whoa. . . . Watch 't pun- Oh. . . Hi there Thunder. . Nice cutie mark. ." Whispy said, tilting his head around Thunders wings, looking at his cutie mark. Thunder's cutie mark could best be described as a cloud wrapped in a lightning bolt, grey and dark-blue. Closing his wings and clearing his throat, Thunder stared for a moment, not recognizing him. "Whispy. . . ya know. . . We help't ya an' Valkyrie with that there magic contest s' colts?" He said, tilting his head, his mane shifting over his right eye.
"WHISPY WINDS!!" Thunder cried out with much excitement, not able to contain his enthusiasm, forgetting all about the task at hoof. "I 'member you as a small colt! What happened ta ya!" He grinned playfully.
"Ahhh, 'ts that there cider n' wind ya know" He also grinned "What'v y' been up 't?" Whispy asked, a smile wrapping around the corners of his muzzle. A look of great realization came across Thunder's face " 'ey 'y don't look s' good bud. . . t's got your hooves 'n a bunch?" Whispy said, a look of concern in his deep, blue eyes.
"THE STORM!!" Thunder exclaimed as he dashed off to find the mayor.
"Nice 't see 'y too. . . " Whispy said staring blankly
Valkyrie
Valkyrie, a unicorn of outstanding power, stood in the midst of a Coltsville storm, his horn glowing a brilliant midnight-blue. Valkyrie had white fur, a short, spiked brown mane, blueish eyes, and glasses that sat atop his muzzle, his cutie mark was more fancy than most, despite looking like a female symbol, it had a curve that marked it's symbolism for "Master or art" the stallion himself had a medium build, unusual for a unicorn.The stallion stood, sweat and rain dripping from his brow, holding a fallen tree from crashing down onto a colt's home was harder than it appeared. Tilting his head to the side, the gargantuan log followed to a clearing, He let go of his hold, lightly jerking his head down, the log came crashing into a pile of mud which painted the side of the house, and cakes his fur from head to hoof.
"Quite uncivilized. . ." Val said, wiping his still-shining glasses, then lightly shaking his body. A look of determination crossed his face as lightning struck behind him, using magic, the stallion inferred where the next bolt would strike. Throwing a dark-blue shield of energy, Valkyrie protected his friend Whispy's home (Even if he hasn't been there since he was a colt). Satisfied with his work, Val trotted off, shaking his caked mane. "This mud is simple ghastly! We really must get sand or something instead. . " Val said, trotting into his domicile.
A aura of magic hung in the air, he could smell it, taste it, how thick it was it seemed likely that it could be cut with a knife. As if it weren't enough, feather dusters flew around, cleaning his books, ribbons, and most valued possessions. Glancing over to a chariot, Val trotted over slowly, lightly rubbing a hoof against the smooth wooden surface, it felt as if it were a tree, the stench of pine still lay strong on it, the expertly crafter chariot stood for years unused, a gift from an earth-pony named Whispy Winds. Oh how we miss you Whispy. . why couldn't you just stay here where it's nice, warm, and clean. . . Lightly shaking his head, he trotted away from the intoxicating smell, the need to reminisce hung strongly, but he denied it. "I must finish this mare drawing!!" He said determined, sitting in front of his work desk, pencil and paper in front of him, his will finally broke, going back to his colt days. His eyes watered, the only thing that pulled him back to reality was the light patter of water hitting the paper repetitively, rags flew over, wiping the paper, a bigger towel came and roughly dried his mane and tail
"Wha- Get off me!" He shouted, pushing the towel away with his hooves. The towel flew away slowly to attend to the water that had seeped under the door frame. His assisstant, Chang, a small dragon no older then Valkyrie stood in the doorway, his assisstances wings stood straight out.
"Uhhhh, a lot of work to do Val?" Chang said, his fangs lightly sat on his bottom lip, his slit, brown eyes stared unending at Valkyrie. Moving his slitted eyes to the paper, he brought his claws to his forhead. "Need more paper?" He rolled his eyes, already knowing the awnser to his question.
"Yes please, thanks Chang," Val said, holding in his frustration as he lightly outlined it on his desk, his head throbbed from thinking, not having sleep for three days was finally getting to him. As Chang finally walked in holding a stack of paper, the flustered unicorn had collapsed on himself, passed out from fatigue.
"You really work to much val. . . ." Chang said, stacking the papers on the desk and leaving the room, muttering to himself about how Valkyrie should get off his lazy flank and fetch his own supplies.
Whispy Winds
Trotting through the dark, dank forest, the light rustle of bushes filled his ears, perking them up, he knew a preditor was around him, staring around with his blue eyes, he lightly scanned the bushes, pushing his black mane from his face "Ahh, 'y best not come out 'f 'y know what's good for 'y!" Ge said, shaking his green body lightly, the large stallion stood taller than most, his build was that of a heavy equestrian guard, his hooves hard as steel from years of traveling on rocks and training his hooves for combat. The crack of a tree branch rung loudly in his ears as a huge snake fell out of the tree, it's tongue flicking out far as it's death stare penetrated the earth-ponies eyes.
"Bring 't. . " The smirking stallion said, taunting the humungous serpent, it lowered it's head responsivly, moving back and stricking blindingly fast, blindly into the stallions hind-hoof, A crack rung through the forest as the snake fell down, it's long, scaly hide sending a cloud of dust up as it hit the dirt."t's what I thought . . . to weak 't challenge me!" Whispy said grinning. A light growel came through the hedges, curiosity took the better of him as he trotted over and stuck his head in between them. A huge Manticore stood in front of a lake, staring vigerously into the water, trotting up behind it, Whispy cleared his throat. Turning, the creature seemed to gaze at him for a second, it's brain not fully focused on him, but deep in thought.
"All 'a ya'll Manticores are intel'gent I know, but could 'y happen 't give me a ride outta' here? I'm kinda lost 'f 'y catch my drift." Whispy smiled sheepishly as he waited respectfully in front of the creature, not a doubt in his mind that this huge beast could injure him. The beast simply lowered it's tail slowly, bowed back in respect for the bravery of this pony and let him climb aboard, flying out of the forest to the edge, where Whispy trotted out content, looking skyward, he saw a dark flash, the wingbeats were silent, practiced to perfection, the pegusis flew on a mission, Whispy only caught a glance at the pony, his features wind-blown, his tight, purple and black suit, not doubt, he was a shadowbolt.
Whispy galloped along, flying past the hilly terrain, despite the uphilled galloping, it didn't slow him down, he was on a mission and nothing in equestria could stop him. "I gatta chase that there Shadowbolt!" He said, sweat lightly dripping from his brow, his short mane and tail airborne as he flew past the randomly placed tree's "Nightshade. . . I will catch 'y"
Nightshade
Shunned as a small colt for his seemingly evil appearence, Nightshade started life all on his own. Not all was lost though, as Nightshade was quite the exceptional flier at a very young age. He had the ability to fly almost completely silent. Later on in life Nightshade befriended a young pegusis named Thunder Cloud in flight school. Nightshade would go on to live with Thunder Cloud for the next few years. Then one day the class was told that they would be observed by a special guest during their drills. Nightshade didn't think much of this and went though his drill buisness as usual. Afterwards Nightshade was pulled aside by a special request. As a shock to Nightshade it was Princess Luna, she complimented his flying, to which he thanked her. The princess stated that she was very impressed with his ability to fly silent and gave him an interesting proposition.
Princess Luna offered Nightshade a position as a Shadowbolt. Specifically, in a special forces military unit, specialized in stealth operatons. Nightshade happily accepted the job and has been a Shadowbolt ever since. He has taken part in several missions, ranging from escorts to threat removal. Nightshade now lives wherever his unit is stationed. Nightshades cutie mark was earned as he accepted Luna's offer, the cutie mark itself being a "Coat of arms". It was as a typical mideavil shield with yellow bolts in it, inbetween black and purple, grey wings propped up off the crest itself.
After accepting the offer (As well as recieving his cutie mark), he had lost all contact with Thunder Cloud and the others. Zipping through the air above Coltsville, he flew past Thunder Clouds home, making no sound as he flew through the cloudy sky, few colts actually saw him, those who did shook thier head and murmured amung themselve. "Traitor" some said, "He brings threat to us all!" Others replied fearful. Thunder Cloud simply watched him, not moving as other pegusai tried chasing him, only to loose him a few moments after. This one's crafty. . . I better watch out. . Thunder Cloud stated, his eyes still on the pegusis as he flew out of view once again.
Ailen
As a young unicorn, Ailen was always a powerful spellcaster, learning new spells came fairly easy to him, though his favorite type (However distructive it may be) Was what he was most inticed with. Fire, being what he was named after, this unicorn once burned down a stallions house as a colt, the flames seemed to dance for him, staring in awe, a smile slowly crept across his face. Using fire to "Solve" his problems, the stench of smoke always hung on him, soon after his new-found magical power, he was inrolled in Celestia's school, never seeing her himself, he thought was a waste however. . . a newfound knowledge could never hurt.
Passing the classes at the school were no problem, in fact, he outscored almost everypony. Becoming one of the top to graduate in his whole group, the equestrian mages asked him to join, his power coming in handy in many situations to "Keep the peace". Now an experianced and disciplined stallion, he went where he was told too. Feeling as though on a leash, he sometimes snuck out, leaving a letter that he was "On an urgent mission for the princess" But now, he had time-off for a few weeks.
His loyalty to Celestia knew no bounds, anyone who as much as looked disinterested in her words. He would take it upon himself to "Talk" to them, The terrified stallions/mares he "Talked" to never spoke a word against her again, they always seemed to smell of smoke and ash afterwards, the corrupt hierarchy itself seemed to support this type of behavior, protecting the orange pony from danger. Ailen was an orange-coated stallion who had a dark-orange mane, greenish-blue eyes, and a light build, his cutie mark was (Ugh this is hard to describe. . .) As if two scythe blades facing opposite directions, one on top of a circle, the other below. His cutie mark was one that, itself was a cycle of magic, from (Simply put) Earth, Fire, Water, Life, Death, Light, and Air.
His current home was a small tent on the road near the sky pirates docking sight, the ship was called "The silver lining", It's captain, Silver moon flew with his crew. "I must get back to Canterlot!" The young equestrian wizard said. "With haste! I bring news of that scum Shadowbolt's last know location!"
beryllium
Beryllium was a huge stallion, built as it by the best heavies in equestria, his huge hooves came smashing down every step he took, his light brown mane shimmered in the sunlight, his bronze hair blowing in the light breeze. Staring down at the small child in front of him, Beryllium's expression blank. "You're huge mister!" The small colt said, his eyes huge and sparking as he thought I wanna be just like him when I grow up! As he walked away. Watching the colt walk away, a smile pulled at the corners of his mouth, only to be replaced by a frown as some stallion bumped into him.
Glaring down, he realized he was staring at Thunder Cloud, a long-time friend of his. "Oh, sorr-" The voice trailed off as he looked up at the intimidating pony, his eyes softening as he realizd who it was. "Ohh, Hi there Bery! Long time no see, 'cutie marks as interestin' as ever!" He said, looking at it. Beryllium's cutie mark was like a ying-yang symbol with the dots branching out to the corner of the circle. "I swear if that spun around it'd make me dizzy!!" Thunder Cloud exclaimed, grinning and flying to the stallions face.
Beryllium simply chuckled. "A brave little one I see!" He said, his deep voice seeming to strike out at the colts around him. He looked around at them, his hazel eyes gleaming. "What. . .? What's everypony looking at?" He said, his hooves tensing without him thinking about it.
"Oh don't worry 'bout them!! We gatta get to Ponyville!" Thunder Cloud said as he flew in a loop. "Gatta save 'em y'know. . . Like in the old mare/colt's tale!!" He gave a slight wink. "You in?"
"I'm in" Beryllium said, seeing his opportunity to leave this boring town to see more of equestria, his dream was finally going to be met; Go out into the plains and not look back. . . "Here we come Equestria. . ." Beryllium stated
---Finally finished, sorry it took so long, but i have ta come up with the personalities, looks, all that. . . I draw them before putting them in. . (Minus Valk & Beryllium) I am, of course taking critisizm, please do share, I know there is much need for improvement and respect all commentary.
The deep blue sky seemed to radiate the sunlight that fell on Thunder Clouds back as he lay in the clouds, his hooves under his chest, enjoying the beaming sunlight, the could itself was a storm-cloud, lightning crackled through it, sending slight twitches through Thunder's body. Living in this cloud seemed to make him immune to the small volts, in fact, the only way lightning could hurt or injure him was by striking him directly. Sure the colts yelled at him for the occasional buck on the cloud, sending the clouds booming voice down to the poor unsuspecting colts, but it was hilarious! Leaning up suddenly, Thunder Cloud hit the storm cloud, sending the booming voice, he looked over the cloud, seeing the colts cower, he couldn't help but laugh, light-blue tears detaching from his eyes.
"Pa ha ha ha!! Ya'll should see the look on your faces! Ha ha. . ." He started wiping them as a whole appeared under him, noticing the shift in the wind, he looked down, taking note that he was falling, flailing his hooves, he finally remember his wings, they quickly flared out, flapping vigerously to stop the falling pegusis, only stopping just above the ground, every colt stared at him, not only stared, some even GLARED. "Oh c'mon!! You know that was funny!!" Thunder Cloud said, glancing at the many eyes on him, they knew they couldn't catch him, only a few pegusai could. . . The wonderbolts! Valkyrie trotted up to him, shaking his head a painting floating beside him with a midnight-blue aura.
"Look what you did!!" Valkyrie said, showing him the painting, an almost-perfect drawing of a mare on the paper- minus the one long streak that went from muzzle to hoof, Thunder Cloud couldn't help but start snickering, trying to keep the burst of laughter in his gut
"Uff. . .. . heh. ." Thunder Clous said, his teeth showing, clentched shut, his chest lightly heaving up and down. "You know I cain't help mahself" Thunder Cloud said, finally busting out in laughter, the agitated unicorn found this not to the slightest bit amusing, using his horn to bring a pail of paint over the laughing pegusai, he dumped it, painting the normally-yellow pegusai pink, the unicorns grim expression finally turned itself into a subtle grin, the whole town started laughing as the pegusai looked at his new coat, blowing the excess, caked mane out of his face, only for it to slap against his muzzle, making a wet smacking sound.
"Now THAT. . is funny!" The unicorn choked out, holding his chest as he fell back on the ground, unintentionally rolling as he laughed. The pegusis was now the one unamused, flying up, a grin crossing his face.
We'll see who get's the last laugh. . He thought, moving his cloud home over the unicorn and kicking it, water fell quickly, the booming voice making THunder Cloud vibrate as he watched the pink paint wash off his coat and onto the unicorn, who looked up detestfully. Laughing, the pegusis flew away grinning and started looping in the air, watching all the other colts look at eachother, then laugh at the unicorn, who had turned away with a "Hmph"
Getting his saddle-bags packed, Thunder Cloud looked again, making sure he had everything, opening the bag he looked at his lightly-packed bag, staring at the bits he packed, and his small amount of food. "I just hope Me an' Val can stop this storm. . ." Thunder said, flying out to the unicorns home. this may not be a good idea, but better late than never. . . The pegusis sighed, knocking on the door
"Who is it and what is you're buisness here?" A voice from inside called, the unicorn himself sounding as if he were in a rush.
"It's Thunder!! What're ya doin'!" He called back, the door flew opened before him, the white unicorn stood tall, a saddlebag on his back as he trotted out.
"Ready to head to ponyville?" He said smirking, slowly trotting out, his bag full of books and paper(And pencils of course).
Thunder Cloud nodded, grinning as they both departedward the trail out of Coltsville, as they walked a burly pony stood in front of them, uttering with his deep voice. "Hey. . . You're going nowhere without me. . ." He said, the two smaller stallions looking up at him (Not looking up much. . . he's a bit bigger than Big Macintosh).
"Ohh, Hi there Beryllium!" Thunder said smiling wide at him. "We could use such a strong stallion" Thunder Cloud flew up and back down in a loop, trotting to a halt as he landed "Let's go!! Quickly!! C'mon move it! HUSSLE!" He said turning around, the other two stallions staring at him. "Oh. . . . whenever ya'll 're ready. . " He smiled sheepishly after that statment.
The two stallions lightly chuckled, shaking their heads as they trotted along, Thunder Cloud (of course) leading the way.
The light breeze seemed to carry Thunder Cloud's hair, flapping in the breeze as he flew, the best feeling he could ever imagine. The adrineline rushed through his viens, before he had a chance to even think of dashing off, a voice called out, familiar in many ways, the three stallions turned. . .
" Y'all 'rnt leavin' without me right!?" The voice of Whispy carried though the wind, his name now seeming to make sense. The three stallion waited for him to catch up, thier old earth pony friend trotting to them slowly, a grin on his face. "So where y'all headin' anyway!?" He asked, his eyes seeming to sparkle in the sunlight.
"Ponyville!!" Thunder Cloud exclaimed, zipping between the other two so he could greet Whispy first, giving him a brohoof. The ruggedness of the pony's hoof suprised Thunder, Whispy's hoof felt hard as a cement block. Lightly shaking it, he played it off by lighty punching Whispy in his broad shoulders.
"Yes indeed." Valkyrie said, tilting his head upward, a glint of light flashing off his glasses as he looked skyward. The four stallions finally started to set out, setting hoof on these rocks was not Valkyrie's style, he kept his hooves clean after all, looking over to the other pony's he sighed, long and exasggerated. They looked to him, all except Thunder Cloud, who seemed to be leagues ahead.
"Guys HURRY!!!! I see the ship!" Thunder cloud said "Imma go over there and wait!" He continued as he rushed over to the docks, the ship coming into view, though only to a pegasis's eyes. The three stallions quickly trotted after the pegusis, who had already flown to the docking site to make sure they all made it.
The Silver Lining Landed, the four friends, along with one more familiar unicorn, who stood hooded, waiting for the ship patiently, even though the stallions talked to him, he never replied. How rude!! Thunder Cloud thought, flying up the ramp, the captain greeting them as the trotted aboard.
"Avast ye ponyfolk!" The captain said" Me names cap'n Silver Moon! Welcome aboard th' Silver Linin'!" He exclaimed, allowing them to pass.
*Nightshade and his partner are giving the ship a military escort, before the stallions come aboard*
"Ugh I feel wierd. . .!" Nightshade exclaimed.
"Relax. . ." Earl Darkblaze replied, patting Nightshade's back
"But I don't like being seen in public, everypony will avoid me like the did all those years ago!" Nightshade said, his blood red eye shining in the darkness of the room, his navy-blue body almost blending in with the surrounding shadows.
"Well it's better than walking around the ship in a full-blown Shadowbolt uniform!" Screamed Earl, Slapping a hoof across his face.
"I know that. . . I'm just nervous. ." Nightshade replied softly, lightly shaking his spiked mane.
"Wait!" Earl exclaimed, digging through his dresser-drawer. "Here, have these. . ." Earl said, hoofing over some sunglasses
"These will cover up those red eyes of yours, making you look relativly normal. ." Earl smiled at his brilliant idea.
"I guess those will work. . ." Nightshade resonded, halfway not expecting them to work at all.
"Heh. . . They can be Nightshade's shades" Earl Darkblaze said jokingly, lightly chuckling.
"Oh shut up!" Nightshade said, exiting the cabin.
Things were going well, Nightshade was roaming about the ship on a patrol, not getting even the strangest glance from other ponies. I love these sunglasses! Nightshase thought. A few more crewmembers passed, Nightshade was starting to enjoy himself until he caught sight of a group of stallions entering the ship. He couldn't believe it. . It was his old colthood friends, all five of them were present. Whispy Winds, Beryllium, Valkyrie, Ailen, and his old best friend Thunder Cloud. Nightshade's jaw dropped as he recollected the memories of him and his friends, a tear slowly ran down his cheek. He quickly wiped it, He realized. . . The last time he was truely happy was when he was when they were all together. A part of Nightshade wanted to walk up and greet them, shaking away the feeling, he had to focus on the task at hoof. "I can't let them compromise my mission. . ." Nightshade said sadly. After that decision, he went back to his patrol, even though his mind was still racing.
Nightshade was just about to rap up his patrol until he turned a corner and locked eyes with no other than his old friends Whispy Winds. Nightshade quickly broken eye contact, but it was to late.
"'ey!" Whispy said, Nightshade started to trot away upon hearing Whispy's voice. "'Ey! Git back 'ere!" Whispy said, trotting after Nightshade. Nightshade quickly quickened his pace, hoping to lose Whispy, Whispy was persistant however, and he continued following the strangely familiar pegusis.
"Ey, cool yur jets! I think i know 'y!" Whispy called out.
"I don't know you!" Nightshade said, the slightest tone of annoyance trailing in his voice. The "Chase" finally ended in both of them arriving at a dead end.
"Now that i've caught 'y, I know I've seen 'y sumwhere!" Whispy tapped his hoof, thinking, Nightshade was at his breaking point, he angerly turned around, and was about to speak when the unthinkable happened. . . his sunglasses fell off his muzzle, exposing his glowing, red eyes. Whispy's face was blank for a few moments and then it lit up "Nightshade 'ts you!" Whispy exclaimed, a smile crossing his muzzle.
"Alright, alright. . . You got my Whispy. ." Nightshade said in a depressed tone, picking up the sunglasses quietly, his head hung.
"Dear sweet Celestia. . I have so many ques-" Nightshade cut Whispy off
"Yea, yea let's save question time for when we go back to the others. ." Nightshade said as the both trotted to find the group of diverse stallions.
"Look'ee 'ho I found!" Whispy said, excitement flowing through his voice.
" . . . . Who is it. ." They all said confused, looking at the stallion behinde Whispy.
"Whadda 'y mean who is . . .-" He turned around, seeing that Nightshade had put his sunglasses back on. "'Ey take those off!" Whispy said, taking the glases from his muzzle carefully, revealing his eyes. The stallions all stared blankly, all except Thunder Cloud.
"N-Nightshade. . . . Is that really you. . .?" Thunder Cloud said, staring in disbelief in the stallion before him.
"Yes. . . It is me. . " Nightshade responded. They all exploded with questions, most of which were "Where have you been?" Or "What have you been doing?". "Let's just say I've been busy. . ." Nightshade said, turning his back on them. Thunder Cloud was the first to act, jumping on the other pegusai
"NIGHTSHADEEE! I MISSED YA!" Thunder Cloud said, hugging the stallion
"Get. . . off. . me. ." Nightshade said, his tone sounding like a mixure of pain and annoyance. Thunder Cloud pulled his hooves off, putting them in the air defensively.
"Well Soooooorr-Ie" Thunder Cloud said, streching it out. and putting his hooves back on the dock hard. The captain trotted out of nowhere.
"Please watch where yer slammin' yer hooves!" He exclaimed. "Just had 'er polished!" Silver Monn said, pointing to the shining deck.
