Chapters Blu was your average boy, 19 years of age. He didn't do anything particularly great. There was one slight thing though; he had agoraphobia, which meant he was scared of going outside. Well, maybe an overstatement, he just really hated the outdoors and crowds. His mum and dad had died 3 years ago, and he had been even worse since then.
The only person he allowed in the house was his two friends, Alex and Georgia, but they had stopped coming to see him. Blu was a sad person in life, due to fears and no-one to talk to.
Blu was a pale character, like Bella from the Twilight movies and had short dark brown hair. He had a grey jacket over a t-shirt with thin orange and white lines and a collar. He likes to put the collar over the back of the jacket.
He wore black denim jeans and his shoes had no Velcro or strings. He was a very thin person; he hardly ate much because he'd run out of food a while back, so he stuck to pot noodle's.
This train of thought ended when he realized he was not at his home any more. He had woken up in a barn. "Hmmh..." he mumbled. Blu waited for someone to come and help him. He looked around the barn; there were just a few hay bales.
"Hello?" he asked. He got up and found a rip in his jacket, so he took it off and put in on one of the hay bales. "Is anyone around?" he asked, but gained silence.
Suddenly, the barn door opened, and from what Blu could tell two people had entered. "That's all fer today I think, it's getting late" said a southern female voice, she sounded tough. Another voice came,
"Eeyup" he said, and it was male and sounded like the "strong and silent type". Blu looked at his jacket on the hay bales,
"Oh damn!" he whispered. To his surprise, they didn't see it.
Blu couldn't see they people though.
"You go in inside, I'll lock up tonight" came the female voice again. Suddenly it started to get really cold.
"Huh? Why is it really cold now?" Blu whispered, stuttering. When he heard the closing of the barn door, he assumed it was okay to stand up. Unfortunately to his dismay, the character was still there, and had only closed one door. Blu stood there, and looked at this person. Only, it wasn't a human, it was a horse of some sort. "I-er..." he managed to spit out before grabbing his jacket and ducking behind the safety of the bales.
The pony came over, she was orange, a tangy orange. She had three small apples tattoo's to her flank and wore a cowboy hat. As she was walking over, Blu tried to look for a place to hide. She stopped and looked just over Blu, "Odd, I swear I saw one!" she said. She looked around a bit more, "Must have just been my imagination" she mumbled. She was walking back to the door. Blu wondered if she locked the doors, would he be able to get out. He thought was it best to push himself to calling someone he didn't know. He made up his mind.
"Hello?" he said. He eventually stood up, putting his jacket back on, "I'm gonna kick myself for doing this" he said. He looked at the orange pony,
"Another one!" she shouted. She ran over and pushed him to the ground, she had her hooves on his shoulders. Blu did all he could think of, struggle and mumble.
"Get off!" he shouted. The orange pony glared at him,
"Who are ya?" she asked. Blu didn't want to tell her his name, so he just struggled some more. Eventually he gave in, and stopped struggling; he felt sweat tricking down his face. Blu did not like this situation.
"My name?" asked Blu. The pony nodded, "Why should I tell you?" he asked. The pony had a mad expression,
"Because if you don't, I'll do something" she said with a mean expression.
Blu thought hard, but fell into her gaze and became scared. "Alright, just don't do anything to me!' he screamed, 'My name is B-Blu" he said. The orange pony smiled,
"Good, second question, who do you work for?" she asked.
"I-erm, I don't work for anyone. Can you please get off me, your, err, hooves are digging into my shoulders" he said, the pony looked into his eyes,
"Don't run" she said. He lifter her hooved gently off his shoulders.
"Thank you, and what's more is that you're a-a-a pony" he said. His favourite animals were horses, but this was awesome as it could get.
"Three, do you plan to hurt anypony?" she said. She was looking at him as if trying to see into his mind,
"I-do you have to stare at me?" he asked. She looked away from his eyes, but still looked at his face. "I've never hurt anyone, not that I recall" he said. The orange pony continued to process him,
"You are human, right?" she asked. Blu nodded, and then smiled,
"Where am I? Are there loads of ponies here? Can I meet them?" he bombarded the questions at her.
"You're in Ponyville and yes, the towns full of ponies. As for the last question, I can't say right now" she said. Blu's smile went to a frown,
"I suppose humans aren't very nice here?" he said, were they any humans here?
"Well, the name's Applejack. Welcome to Ponyville, I think you should come with me" she said. Blu flinched,
"As in, outside?" he asked. "Applejack I can't go outside, I have Agoraphobia, which is the best I can kinda describe it" he said.
Applejack stood there with a confused face, "What's that?" she asked. Blu sighed,
"It means I'm afraid of leaving the indoors, of going outside" he replied, thinking about all the times he tried to leave his house. The furthest he got was closing the door behind him. Applejack thought,
"You ain't trying to trick me are ya?" she asked.
"Didn't I already say that I love ponies and am completely harmless?" he asked.
"You didn't say harmless" said Applejack. Blu stared at her as if to say 'You know what I mean'.
"I mean when you took me down about five minutes ago" he said.
"Oh yeah, well…" she said, she was trying to think of something. "Would it be easier for you if I said that everypony is asleep?" she asked. Blu slowly stood up and walked over to the door,
"Do you live in a house?" he asked. Applejack couldn't help but laugh,
"Where else would ponies live?" she asked.
Blu looked at a house in the distance, "It doesn't matter, can we get there now?" he said. Applejack walked in front of him and opened the door,
"Ain't nothin' gonna hurt ya" she said. Blu stood outside for a second.
"I-I-Can we go now?" he stuttered. Applejack nodded,
"Alright, follow me" she said. Applejack left the barn and locked it; she and Blu started walking side by side.
"So, Applejack, it is peaceful" said Blu, he couldn't think about what to say.
"Yup, pretty peaceful. It wasn't like this a few months ago" she answered. Blu didn't know what this meant,
"What do you mean?" he asked. Applejack started acting a bit shifty,
"Ah'll tell ya later" she said, and reverted back to normal.
Blu really couldn't think of what to say to a pony. "Applejack?" he asked, she looked at him,
"Yes?" she asked. Blu thought again,
"What exactly do ponies talk about?" he asked. He was also keeping his eyes closed to the way to the house. He had his hand on her hat so he knew where she was, he trusted her. Despite the fact that she did nail him, she was kind and didn't act as though she would harm anyone.
"Well, anything really" she said. Blu thought again, but nothing came to mind.
"Applejack?" he asked. Applejack stopped, Blu didn't see why,
"Why did we stop?" he asked. Applejack laughed,
"We're here' she said, 'but no funny business" she said. Blu opened his eyes; apparently Applejack had already gotten him inside the house.
"I promise" said Blu, as he looked around.
The house looked like something from a western, and there was a faint smell of paint? Or something like it, there were pictures all over the walls and they themselves were bright green. "Applejack, your home is a cosy place" Blu said, spotting a fireplace. It was a really nice, cosy little house. "Applejack, where is urm…" mumbled Blu, he didn't know the name of the other pony.
"That's ma big brother, Big Mac" she said. Blu laughed,
"Like the bur-" he started, but he thought saying burger might offend them. He stopped, "Never mind" he said.
Applejack's face became serious, "I know about burgers" she said through gritted teeth.
"How?" asked Blu. Applejack became nervous again,
"It doesn't matter" she said. Blu shrugged it off and walked around a corner to find a small set of stairs with three mini ponies running down them. But before he could move-CRASH.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see you" said Blu, he looked around to see the three ponies, but they looked as though they never crashed into him. "Alright" said Blu. Applejack walked up to the group of ponies.
"Applebloom, this Blu the human" she said. This Applebloom was a yellow colour, with a tinge of green and had a dull red mane.
"Is he gonna hurt anypony?" she asked, innocently. Applejack looked at Blu with more kindness in her expression,
"No, I think he's better than…" she started again.
"Applejack, tomorrow, if I'm still here will you tell me why you know about humans?" he asked. Applejack nodded.
"Yeah, but you must be tired, right?" she asked. Blu nodded,
"Very…" he said, incidentally yawning at the same time. Applejack looked at a sofa in the front room, and pointed at it.
"You wouldn't mind sleeping on the couch tonight would ya?" she asked. Blu shook his head and smiled,
"All I want is a nap" he said.
Applejack sniggered, "Good, well girls, you go to sleep too now, okay?" she asked and the three fillies sped upstairs. Blu got up and walked over to the sofa and collapsed on it.
"G'night AJ" he mumbled, almost asleep already. He heard Applejack say something, but had already fallen asleep. 'What is this world like?' he thought, 'Why does Applejack know about humans?' he asked. Blu dreamed about how life would be if he were here the next day, but his focus left his dreams. Blu was completely asleep.
"Hello?"
"Y'all awake there, sugar cube?"
Blu was on a sofa. He noticed that when he'd woken up around 10 minutes ago. Applejack was seeing if he was awake. "Yeah, AJ, I'm awake, just sleepy--" he stopped, he was in a ponies house. "Oh my god, I'm…still here?" he shouted.
"Hi there" said a small pony-he recognized her, the pony he saw before he'd passed out the night before.
"Hello, what is your name again?" he asked. He could only remember a few thing from last night, he was in a barn-talking ponies-questions...
The Curious pony looked at him, with a face so cute, Blu felt like his heart might start melting at any moment, "Don't ya remember me?" she said, she seemed to be slightly scared.
Blu answered with "Yeah, but I don't remember your name, and who was stood next to you when I you crashed into me?." he finished.
"The name's Applebloom, and the ponies ya saw me with were my friends, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle." she said. Blu hadn't progressed so good yet, so he decided to stand up, his shoes were on a matt nearby, and so was his grey jacket.
"Applejack said ya might be uncomfortable with those on durin' yer sleep." she said, she looked calmer than she did last night. Maybe she had not had anything to boost her sugar levels yet? He got up properly onto his feet, Applebloom pulled a face of amusement and confusion-obviously, she nor any pony had seen a human before, but then again, Applejack questioned him, almost like she knew he was evil or something.
At this precise moment, Applejack walked into the front room, or at least what he assumed was the front room. "Well, lookie who's awake" she said, "Would y'all like some apple pie?" she said with a cheery smile.
"Well- it's not like I couldn't use one, I'm so hungry!" he moaned. Blu hadn't eaten in a long time, "And by the way Applebloom, there's nothing to fear from me" he finished.
"Well, after breakfast, Ill take ya down to Twilight's to see if she knows anything about why yer here" Applejack finished, as she walked into the kitchen.
After a couple of minutes, Blu decided to put his shoes on. He walked into the kitchen, where he saw Applejack, getting a apple pie out of a curiously-cute looking oven. "Erm…need any help there" he said, he added the word 'partner' because he wasn't sure if all of the ponies had a southern accent.
"Why in the world are ya tryin' to mimic me?" she asked with a bored expression on her face.
"Sorry, I've, never met a real pony-that can talk that is, and certainly one that is orange!" he shouted.
Applejack handed him the plate with her mouth, and Blu took it, he didn't really like apples. But, he thought it couldn't hurt to try and eat some. Blu opened his mouth, and put some pie into it, he started to chew on it-half expecting it to taste horrible and like dirt. But he thought 'OMG, this is good, it tastes better than apples, it's like-like, I don't even know!' He could tell that Applejack was happy with his expression, he only just noticed the pure look of joy on his face, when he looked in a mirror behind her. "Applejack?" he said, after finishing the pie,
"Yes, what is it sugar cube?" she replied, for the most part, Blu wanted to kiss her, but it seemed a pit of a pervy thing to do, so,
"Well, it's just…" he started to blush, "No-one's ever done anything for me before…I know you dont trust humans but c-can I have a hug?" he asked with slight embarrassment.
Applejack face lit up at this-either she trusted him completely, or she thought he was asking her out. "Sure, but may I ask why?" she asked this, whilst giving him a hug, no-she was still a bit suspicious.
"Well, I've never tasted anything so good before, and no-one…" he thought he might get a few giggles by saying anypony-they probably already did.
"Any-pony has any done something so nice for me." he was done speaking. After the breakfast and the hug, Applejack opened her front door, Blu rebelled at the idea. But Applejack, he trusted, so he walked up to the door, and took one little step outside. "Okay, this will be easier than last night, I'm sure" he said, for the first time in a long time, Blu was outside.
"See, I told ya" Said Applejack, right behind him. After around 10 minutes of Applejack persuading Blu to go further into the outside world, he gave up, and Applejack had offered him a ride, so he didn't have to walk. He reluctantly disagreed, thinking he might hurt her, or something worse, but he gave that too, and sat on her back, "Applejack? Why are you being so nice?" he asked.
Applejack smiled, but Blu couldn't see her face, "Because you seem a lot nicer, and if you were to pull a move, I would pin you to the floor instantly" she said.
"Applejack, I want to thank you, in helping me." he softly whispered into her ear, as he suddenly noticed she was walking into a town.
"You know, if you want you can close yer eyes?" she answered back softly.
"NO!" he shouted, gaining looks from nearby ponies. He started to get a bit anxious, he noticed a tree with a door, nearby. It was a big area, and had a large back garden. The tree itself was light brown. He got off of Applejack's back, and ran towards it, hastily.
He knocked on the door, and when it opened, there was a yellow Pegasus, who's face had changed at the sight of him.
Blu was getting a bit frightened at all the attention he was getting, not meaning any disrespect, he pushed past this pony, into her house.
"Sorry, I'm so sorry" said Blu, looking out of a window, then closing the blinds.
"Hey-what are you-?" the butter coloured Pegasus asked., but stopped when she fully saw him. her face went a pale colour, paler than yellow. she was as scared of him as Applebloom seemed to be.
"Fear of the outside." Blu finished. But by the looks of it, the pony knew exactly what he was talking about. At this point, the pony had given out a small shriek, and hidden herself in a small cupboard.
"Why is every one of you ponies scared of humans?" he asked, there was no reply. Blu just assumed that this timid sounding pony was a shy one, which possibly led him to his next question. "Shy?" he asked, then came a knock at the door,
"It's Applejack-Fluttershy, are you okay?" she shouted from outside. 'Fluttershy' Blu thought. 'if I'm going to get a good reputation here, I'd better apologize.
"Fluttershy, is it? I'm sorry for breaking into your house. It's just that I'm afraid of the world outside, the attention was getting to me, and I just-your house-seemed peaceful, natural looking…" nothing he said would ease Fluttershy.
"Is it because I'm a human?" he asked, "If so, I can assure you, I would never hurt any…pony? I would never hurt anyone. I don't like making enemy's." he tried, and failed. A tear appeared in his eye, 'I've upset someone already-surely I'm not this horrible. But soon enough he started crying. Not with pain, mostly sympathy for this pony he'd hurt. and it wasn't even proper crying, just a few tears.
"I'm sorry…" he managed to cry out, "I-I guess I'll just leave" but as he did this, Applejack had knocked the door down.
"Fluttershy?!" she shouted. "Blu, what did you do?" Blu looked at her, with drying tears on his cheeks, he managed to say,
"I-I think I may have scared her to the point of trying to escape me, that or she thinks I'm gonna try and kill her." he sobbed.
"Applejack" Blu heard in a very timid, nervous sounding voice. "Applejack, who is this?" she asked slowly and in a squeaky voice. Applejack's response was,
"Don't worry, Fluttershy-This is Blu, he's not like…" she stopped there.
"Not like who?" Blu asked sadly.
"Look, Blu- I should tell ya, before you scare everypony" she said, "The last boy to come here, he was, evil. He…was human-his name was... Jack. He hurt and beat up some ponies, including--"
"Oh My God, Fluttershy-if I'd have known, I would't have burst into your house like that. I didn't know, I swear beyond my comprehension, I'm not like that other human" he said, "This is having no effect…" Looking sad and dismal, he headed to the door, and walked out. He didn't care if he had a fear of going outside, he'd just hurt someone, scared them to their core. Applejack ran up to him,
"Well, sugar cube, at least this is a start. Look Fluttershy is weak-hearted, and she might talk to you later, she is probably just really scared right now…" she stopped. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, a sky blue blur came out of the sky, he didn't get out the way.
"GAH" this person shouted. Definitely female.
"Rainbow? What have I told ya 'bout crashing into pon-- Well-just watch out will ya?"
Blu got back u and looked at the cyan Pegasus in front of him, "You look thrill-needing and beautiful" he said.
Rainbow apparently spoke again "What's beautiful?" she said, half confused.
Not realizing what he had just said, Blu murmured. "Erm, err, I- You?" he said, his face turning a deep red, and making himself look like an idiot. He may as well told the truth about what he thought.
"Me? Beautiful? Applejack, I don't trust this-HUHH, human!" she screamed. Instant reflex, which was punching Blu in the face.
"AArgh!" he screamed whilst falling over, "Why-that hurt-why do people think I'm evil. Just because of that human, Jack?" Rainbow looked away from him as he got back up.
"Sorry, did I hear correctly?." she looked like she was holding back tears.
"Yes, a human that isn't evil" he said.
"Applejack, who is this human" she asked, looking fierce.
Applejack sighed. "This is Blu, he's a human and Ah don't think he's evil. He even has a fear of goin' outside" she said.
"Oh, well, sorry then" said Rainbow. Rainbow Dash left a bit sorry and bad for hitting Blu now. She had to make him feel better. "Wanna hang out some time?" she asked.
Blu nodded, "Sure, but don't hit me again" he said.
Rainbow smiled, and her wings went out, she took off at an astonishing speed. "Rainbow Dash" said Applejack.
"How many of your friends are there left to meet?" he asked. Applejack sat down, and put one hoof to her chin,
"Twilight, Pinkie, and Rarity. We'd best not visit Pinkie though, don't even ask, Blu" she said, done thinking,
Blu said "Okay" and nodded.
They walked for a little bit. Blu getting stares here and there, he got a little bit anxious. They arrived at another tree, somehow, it looked 'Smarter' thought Blu. "Applejack, would you explain to your friend before I hurt her too?" And Applejack nodded. She opened the door, to see a Purple pony, with a horn. "Oh, wow, a unicorn, that's awesome!" Blu couldn't help but scream out.
Twilight turned around to spot Blu and Applejack, "Hey there Applejack, what brings you to-" she like all the others looked at Blu, and a look of terror sunk into her eyes.
"Now, twilight, before ya do or say anything, I've questioned Blu, and he seems fine to me. Heck, he even called Dash beautiful" almost mocking him.
Now that Applejack had briefly explained the topic, Twilight seemed to instantly bring herself to state of calm, and relaxed, she too remembered all too well, what Jack may have done here.
"Well, Blu, is there anything I can help you with?" she tried to smile, but still looked like she was in some sort of defensive position.
"Well, yes thank you, Twilight Sparkle, I think it was?" he nodded, "1, I would like to know if you have any books on fiction stories about adventurers, and 2, I don't suppose you'd have a spell that can turn me into something other than a human?" Said Blu, after successfully receiving a look of curiosity from Twilight. 2, now that's 2 ponies who liked him.
"Well, no, sorry I don't. but I have a spell that can…oh, no-not that, that's what I tried with Jack, the evil cretin." he didn't expect that from an well-educated pony, and they all seemed to put emphasis on that name... Jack.
"Twilight, I presume your well-educated by the books that surround you?" he asked. Twilight nodded,
"Maybe Princess Celestia brought you here?" she seemingly asked herself.
"Princess? You have royalty? Oh my god, she must know I'm here-she wants to get rid of me, doesn't she?" Blu felt like crying. if ponies did hate humans, then surely the Princess would, right?
At this Twilight seemed to have lost all doubt about Blu being as wicked as this Jack character. "No, no don't worry, I'm sure she is trying to teach me something. Hold on…" she turned from book shelving, to a circular stairway, "SPIKE!" she shouted. But Blu heard a masculine voice, about as young as his, actually.
"Yes, what is it? I was just about to take a nap." A purple being... a dragon? It must be.
"OH MY GOD!" he shouted, again something he was fascinated about, "A dragon, you have a dragon?" he questioned. Spike-the dragon, had stopped at the bottom of the stairs, and stared at Blu. A look of anger appeared on his face. He lashed out jumped on Blu's face, he starting trying to slash at him, but was pulled away with the aid of twilight's magic.
"Ow, oh, my face-Jesus, no, sorry, that's it!" he ran off out of the door Applejack had failed to close in time. "This is not fair!" he shouted. Everypony was acting scared because of the previous human who had come to this land. Blu spotted what looked to be a bakery. He walked up to it, and everypony near him looked like they were secretly judging him. He shouted so that every pony could hear him, "Don't judge me based on some 'apparent' lunatic who came here before me! It's not fair, why should I suffer!" He looked at a window in the bakery. It smelled delicious inside.
Most of the ponies had not even noticed his speech. He was happy about that, at least he was no longer afraid of the outside world. When suddenly a very crazy-looking bouncing pony seemed to be circling him, thinking weather to trust him. "If your gonna get scared and run off or kill me, at least give me the time to saying hello?"
Almost instantly, at hearing these words, the pony flinched for a second, mainly at kill, but then she stopped at looked at him. She stuck out a hoof. "My name's Pinkie Pie, you?" she said, with a hint of sadness, but she was genuinely happy.
"My name is Blu" he said, before taking her hoof, and shaking it.
"Don't worry, my friends told you probably not to meet me, right?" Blu nodded, "That's because of Jack, he put me in hospital for 2 week--" she looked depressed all of a sudden, "Never mind that." she looked happy again. Was this pony real? "I've seen you all morning, but by the look of it, your quite friendly" she screamed. Blu knew she was annoying, but who wasn't at times. "Would you like to come in?" she said.
Blu nodded, "Thank you" he mumbled. Before he entered, he noticed Applejack and Twilight hadn't followed him. He opened the door,
"SURPRISE!" shouted a bunch of ponies, including the 5 he'd seen earlier. Applejack, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow, even Fluttershy, but to be fair, he had been a bit rude to her. How the hell did they all get here so damn quickly?!
"Rarity" said an elegant looking white pony, with a velvety purple mane, and similar tail.
"Hi, uh, I'm Blu." he mumbled,
"Does that stand for something longer?" she asked. What a curios question, he thought, "Yes, actually-it's short for Bluward, but it sounds like a weird name, so Blu, if you please." he said, Rarity nodded. "And I assume you're an element of the mane 6?" she nodded again.
Pinkie bounced I the middle of the room, dancing, Fluttershy was still in the corner, looking like she was crying. Rarity and Twilight were talking near the bunch bowl, and Applejack was doing something Blu couldn't see properly.
Rainbow dash came up behind him, "So, you really think I'm beautiful?" Blu's face going redder than an apple.
"Well-I…You, and the…" he had become lost for words. For the first time, he noticed her mane. It was shorter than the others, and was multicolored, unison to a rainbow. Hence the name. "I like you hairstyle." he said, making Rainbow Dash smile,
"I like yours, too" she answered. "OH MY GOD!" Blu had realized that a few days ago, he was making a project about something, in which he had attempted to make his hair blue with black stripes.
"Yeah, that…was for something I was making… a film." he blushed.
"I'm gonna tell you right now-no-one's ever called me beautiful before, and I never expected it from a human, so don't think about any funny business, okay?"
He was in a good mood, so Blu agreed, and said one thing, "You know, even if I did…you know…I don't think I would've liked it. Being in a relationship with a pony would be really weird."
Rainbow dash stared at him, "Wishing I'd not said that" he said.
But just as she opened her mouth, the door to Pinkie's house was opened, and stood outside was a huge pony, with wings, and a horn, she was white, like rarity. But her mane, it looked like a rainbow-cloud.
She had a small crown on her head, and looked very important, stood beside her was a smaller, much bluer, darker looking pony, maybe a speaker. Blu suddenly realized this was the princess. "Princess?" Blu called out to her. She turned her head, and looked at him.
"Yes?" She had a soft, but mature voice, "Who are you, human?" she asked. "My name is Bluward" he said, he had a feeling that he should pronounce everything properly.
"Interesting name?" she said, "Blu, is that alright with you?" again speaking.
"Well, -" he noticed that every pony was looking at him, "Yes, that's what I go by anyway." he finished.
"Oh, and I should mention, I'm the one who brought you here, I can explain-" interrupting her, Blu said,
"Thank you, this has been a very good experience so far." he looked at her, "Sorry, carry on…" he felt a bit mad with himself.
"Applejack, are you sure this is a good idea?" he asked. She grinned, but Skye couldn't see her face.
"The gang have to know." she said.
As they arrived at the outskirts of the market place, Applejack told Skye to stay where he was, and for Applebloom to keep him safe, she was gonna sort this mess out no matter what. She knew Skye wasn't a bad guy. Before she left, Skye looked into her eyes again.
"Thank you Applejack, I don't even know you and you're helping me. I wish I could repay you." he said. Then she galloped away. Skye looked at Applebloom, she looked really scared. "If you think I'm evil, then you can leave me" he said. "There's no reason to fear me, but if you really do then you can leave, I admire you." he said.
Applebloom stood up, then she raised a hoof and pointed it at herself, "Why do you admire me?" she asked.
Skye laughed, "Because you're not afraid" he said. Applebloom just stared at him. Skye started speaking again, "It's not easy, being the only one that everyone hates. Being the punching bag, the trash disposal-- Don't ask" he said. She didn't think to,
Applebloom’s only remaining question was, "How did you get here?" which needed Skye to think. He didn't know how he got there, or why he was there, but if humans were evil it was an antagonists design or pure mistake. Not many ponies would bring a human here, if they were smart enough.
"I don't know, maybe a unicorn wanted to see if humans were still evil?" he asked.
Applebloom smiled, "Yeah, that would make sense, they usually get their noses into things they don't need to" she answered. She looked at Skye, his eyes were full of emotions; worry, hope, anxiety. "You okay?" she asked. Skye nodded absent-minded.
"Fine, it's just that I don't know if I will be alright here." he said.
Applebloom smiled the biggest smile that Skye had ever seen, she was grinning like a hyena or something, "Why are you smiling?" he asked. Applebloom opened her mouth, and then stopped to think about what she would say next.
"Well, I'm smiling 'cause you seem nice, and I think you should be fine here." she squeaked with her high-pitch voice. She was just a child though; maybe she didn't understand the complete situation.
"I sure hope Apple-- Hold on, are you two related?" he asked, just realizing they both had Apple in their names.
She giggled, "Of course we are, how come you didn't realize sooner?" she asked, really confused. Skye looked at her with a sad look on his face, and Applebloom knew that he didn't have time to think about that when he was getting a chance to speak to the residents of a town he didn't know anything about. "Sorry." she mumbled, becoming slightly depressed.
Skye didn't like to see children, or fillies, sad since it reminded him of his terrible childhood, and a specificity horrible time in his life. "Applebloom, it's fine, cheer up please" he begged, and she did.
"Do you suppose Applejack will get you to speak with Twilight?" Applebloom asked. Skye wiped his face and stroked the bristles of hair on his chin,
"She the purple one?" he asked. Applebloom jumped high in the air.
"You met her already?!" she screamed happily. But Skye looked at her again, shocked about how high she could jump; he stopped focusing on that and asked his next question.
"Well, is she… kind?" he asked.
Applebloom stopped jumping, something set off in her mind, "Generally, but since… that doesn't matter, but she's really kind and talented and nice… and kind." she said. Skye giggled a bit, Applebloom he found quite funny.
"You already said that one." he said happily. Applebloom sniggered.
"See, you aren't as sad as before." she said through grins. She was right; Skye had been cheered up by a young pony, with very red hair.
"Skye?" said Applebloom, with a hint of seriousness. Skye felt uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen. It wasn't bad, but it might not have been good. What 'It' was, was applejack coming back with Twilight, the purple pony with a darker purple mane and a star tattoo on her flank. Skye also noticed that Applebloom didn't have a tattoo, and every… pony in that mob did.
"Twilight, just give him thirty seconds at least." begged Applejack, as Skye heard her coming closer.
"Applebloom, what do I say?" he asked, starting to sweat. Applebloom quickly came up with a smart response.
"As long as you're not evil, I don't see why you should be nervous" but Skye could think of a few things that could give Twilight the wrong impression.
She marched over next to Applejack; far behind her he saw a bunch of four other ponies. "Hello?" he asked. Twilight stopped in front of him, he was sat down and now half as tall as her.
"Who are you?" she demanded. Skye felt like he was being punished for something, but he might as well try to make a good impression.
"I-I-My name is Skye Dubson, I'm twenty-one and I-err--", at this point, he was interrupted by Twilight.
"Why are you here?" she asked, she seemed to have lightened up a little. Skye tried to stand up, but he felt sick.
"I really don't know, I just woke up in a field over a hill over there." he stuttered.
She examined him, "Do you know anything about humans here?" she asked. Skye put his hands on the dirt ground beneath him and pushed, he stood up, feeling like he was gonna be hit.
"I know from a few sentences that they're evil or something much worse." he said. Twilight looked him up and down, but Skye assumed that since Applejack was the element of honesty, Twilight could only try and think. "I have a question." he mumbled.
Twilight nodded, and then looked at Applebloom, who quickly ran over to the four ponies away from him and Twilight.
Applejack stayed with him. "Can you tell the shy one that I thank her?" he said.
Twilight gasped and jumped back, "You said thank you!" she shouted. Skye stumbled backwards.
"What, is something wrong?!" he shouted back.
Twilight stood there stunned, "No human ever says thank you" she said. Skye smiled.
"Well, I do." he said cheerfully.
Twilight stuck out a hoof, "Good to meet you." she said in a serious tone. Skye looked at her hoof and grabbed it, but not too hard as she would've taken it as a threat.
"Nice to meet you too, Twilight sparkles." he said.
Twilight's eyes widened, "You know me?" she questioned. Skye didn't know who she was.
"No, why, is Sparkle your last name?" he asked.
"Yes, it is, how did you know?" she asked, backing away a bit more. It was as if, the more she didn't trust him, the further back she went and vice-versa.
"I just said it because your tattoo, it’s… nice?" he said, trying to fix the situation. She stepped forward,
"You mean my cutie mark?" she asked. Skye nodded. Twilight stepped forward and let go of his hand, “Well, I suppose that was a giveaway." she muttered.
"I have a few pets myself" he said.
"So Blu? What are your pets called?" Fluttershy asked him,
"Well, my cats names are Otto, and Izzy, my dogs-Andy, Sky, and Morgan, my snake is just call Slither, and my lizard is called smiley, can you guess why? There's also a fox that comes to my house for food" he said.
"And this fox is?"
"I call him, or her, I don't know the gender, probably her, by the way it eats. Despite the gender, I call it Megan"
"Oh, I see." she said.
Blu was invited to the back garden where there were loads of animals in small dens, and groves, and even a cave to the far right. "OMIGOSH!" Blu whispered, trying not to shout. "They are all so cute!" he pulled a 'ORLY' face.
"Well, what exactly do I do, just feed them, or wash them, or…" he asked.
"Well, it's time to feed all of the flying animals." she said with a very timid voice.
"Okay, where are they?" Blu asked, feeling stupid, he knew they'd obviously be in a tree or something.
"Look up" Fluttershy said, pointing a hoof in the air.
Okay, well, this was awkward. Blu collected some bird feed from the butter Pegasus, and said "So, do I just scatter it on the floor, or what?" he asked,
"Well, yes silly, of course, what else could you do with it?" she said in a firmer voice. She was starting to like him.
Later, after the whole job was finished, he'd said to Fluttershy, he didn't care if she didn't like him, he just loved animals. He said goodbye, and left Fluttershy to one-ponied jobs.
Blu thought 'Well, I've seen Twilight, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie.' he continued to think, 'Applejack of course, I've fallen in love with Rainbow [he thought sarcastically], and Rarity, who I don't believe I've actually met.'
This train of thought ended when he bumped into Rainbow Dash for the second time in one day, only she was purposely stood there, he'd just not concentrated.
"Oh, hey there" he said.
"Hi, how's it going?" she responded.
"Pretty good actually, and can you drop the whole beautiful thing, please, if you don't the whole world might explode!" he said.
Rainbow Dash pulled a not amused face, and said "C'mon, it was you who said it. I've never had anypony say anything like that to me, ever." she blushed a little bit, again.
"Look Rainbow, the reason I called you beautiful was because you…well are? I just don't think I was thinking straight, but if you want something from me, or want me to help you with something, then just tell-" he was cut off, for the 500th time today. But it wasn't talking, Rainbow pulled her face away from Blu's.
'Did, she just-KISS ME!?' he screamed in his head. Of course this was in middle of town, and Rainbow must have realized this, so, what was the point. "R-Rainbow, did you just kiss me?"
"Yes!" she said quietly, but it sounded like she was shouting, "You got a problem with it?"
"You-You know that I can't be with you, right?" she looked embarrassed and shocked at the same time.
"Why?" she said, Blu turned his head, looking at ponies talking about him, whispering.
"BLU!" shouted Twilight, he turned around to see that Twilight was stood there with Applejack, they were going to the farm, but this interrupted that.
"Twilight? I'm as confused as you!" he shouted. She put a magical sort of bubble around him, and starting raging, when Blu looked back, Rainbow had gone. It took a few minutes for Twilight to stop raging a Blu for kissing Rainbow.
"It wasn't me, she kissed me! Because I called her beautiful, on day two." he said. Twilight didn't look impressed. Applejack looked at him with curiosity. "Well, I don't think he knows what hit him, Twi" she said.
"Thank you!" Blu said.
"But we saw him---".
Applejack interrupted her, "Yeah, but ah can see it in his eyes, he is just as confused as yerself, Twilight" she said.
Twilight let her magical grip on me go, and with that, Blu saw the sun going down, "That was a quick day!" he shouted.
Applejack said "Yer welcome to use the guest room at Sweet Apple Acres, if ya want." she said.
"Thank you, Applejack" Blu said.
After tons of tiring work, which Blu meant feeding a few animals, becoming the boyfriend [sarcasm] of Rainbow Dash, and Twilight raging at him for 10 minutes, this day was a pretty good one, 'oh god, what a day' he thought. He and Applejack were walking down to the Farm, when nightfall came, he saw Derpy up ahead, looking happy.
"Derpy?" he said, she turned around, and smiled,
"Hello" she said, he opened her eyes, and saw him, her smile turned upside down for a few seconds, then she realized how she had misjudged him.
"Erm, I'm sorry for earlier, or would it be last night?"
Applejack looked confused, "Wait, you two met already?" she said.
"By met, you mean getting knocked out with a spade, loosely tied to a tree, and shouted at by Derpy's daughter, then yeah, had a great time!" he said. "Oh and Derpy, I forgive you" Blu said.
Derpy said "Which part?" Blu walked up to her, close, and said "Giving me a chance."
Blu was in a bed with a pony…"I have to admit, this doesn't look good." he said.
"Yeah, it looks bad…if we did…you know?" she was now dying of embarrassment and puzzlement.
"Well, if we did, how bad could things be?" he asked,
"I-I don't know, what exactly do you remember?" she asked him. Blu tried to think of something, but after her kissing him, nothing, not a single thing.
"Well, you kissed me…then nothing." he said.
Applejack shouted from downstairs, "C'mon y'all!" Blu looked at Rainbow,
"AJ doesn't know you're here, quick, go!" he shouted with a whisper.
"COMING!" Blu shouted downstairs. He was already dressed, so he went downstairs. Applejack had made some apple-pancakes. "WOW!" said Blu, he'd never seen any other pancake type apart from eggs..
"Applejack?" asked Blu, he was going to ask her about inter-species relationships, but, that seemed a bit creepy. "Yes, sugar cube?" she said. That's it, "Why do you call every…er…pony, sugar cube?" he said, trying to change his sentence so it fit their grammar.
"You know-I don't know. It's just a nick name Ah gave everypony." she said, hopefully not aware he was lying. 'Dammit, I'm lying to the element of honesty!' he thought.
"Applejack, I'm afraid I can't stay, I-I'm gonna go see Derpy, where does she live?" he said.
Applejack turned to face him, "Ya did hear what I told ya, right, last night?" Blu nodded,
"Yeah, I know, but I just want to talk to her about something." he told her. "I need to speak to her about the…err, cross-eyed thing." he said.
"Oh, fine-but if do so much as touch her, I'll come get you, right?" she said through gritted teeth. She could tell, however, that he wanted to see if she'd been alright.
He left the house after some amazing tasting pancakes, "Erm, Rainbow? You still here?" he shouted, away from the house, not to grab Applejack's attention.
"Yeah" came from behind him, he looked at her, "I-I'm here, I was waiting for you. So, erm…" she died the sentence down, like he would have expected Fluttershy to.
"Rainbow, just say it, I know it's a strange thing to say, but it does make sense to at least try." he said in confidence.
"So, what if we did- And what if I'm preg-" Blu cut off quickly,
"Oh, no! oh god, I didn't think you were gonna say that!" he shouted. "Well, is there like a hospital, or something?" he asked. 'This is the stupidest thing I've ever done-presuming I did make love to a pony. Make love?, how British!' he thought to himself.
Rainbow said "Well, I'll go to the hospital and…you see Derpy." she said before flying off.
Blu walked down the dirt road, until he came across a street, and at the end of this street, was Twilight's library. He quickly rushed down the town, getting strange looks, and stares he hadn't received before, maybe they knew what he'd done… he didn't end up like Luke, or Jack?
As time passed, and he'd gotten to twilights house, he knocked on the door. "Twilight, you in?" he said. There was a clattering sound from inside, "Twi, you okay in there-" he was cut of by a,
"Yeah, a bookshelf fell over-SPIKE, watch out!" another falling bookshelf? Blu opened the door, and saw loads of books spilled on the floor.
"I shalt help you!" he said a ridiculous voice.
He walked over to Twilight, and started picking up some books, "So Twi-if I can call you that, I have 2 questions and a request" he said,
"Question 1, where does Derpy live?" he finished. Twilight looked at him with shock,
"I personally don't think you should see her" she said,
"But I've already seen her." he said,
"Oh, then you know about the…" she trailed off.
"Look, Twilight, I can see that Jack, or Luke-whatever his name is, he's corrupt, angry, and Celestia tried to help, that didn't work. As I already know, he…beat up Fluttershy, made Pinkie so depressed she got ill…" he couldn't bring himself to say the next part, but he had to, to make his point, "raped Derpy, and I'm not sure about the other ponies, but…for god-Celestia's sake, not all humans are like that!" he finished raging.
"Well, question 2?" asked Twilight,
"Yeah, yeah, sorry-2, is it possible to cross-breed?" he said, blushing.
"Did you-" Blu cut her off, he was scared he'd be banished or something worse if he didn't tell the truth.
"Yes, well, no, I don't know…Rainbow Dash kissed me, at Applejack's place, and…I don't remember, then I woke up like 2 hours ago, in the same bed with her, I don't remember anything-" Twilight stopped him from talking,
"I knew this would happen, Dash is out of control when she loosens up." she said.
"Loosens up?" Blu asked.
"Cool, she always says she is cool, and skilled and that stuff, but she's never had emotions like this, when you called her beautiful, it triggered some sort of emotion chain."
Blu stared at her, "So, your saying, that she's never been in love?" Twilight continued,
"No." she said.
"Oh." said Blu.
He felt ashamed at the question, "So, the request, erm… Can you get a spell that can make me fly?" he asked.
"Well, no, but I have a spell that can make you walk on clouds." Twilight stopped moving books around, "Well, I don't know if it will work on you…" she said.
Blu asked Twilight for a second request before leaving, "Twilight, one more thing, do you have a species-changing spell? He said.
"I-I don't know, why should I?"
Blu shrugged, "Well, if we did, I don't like the thought of pony mother slash human father…" Twilight nodded,
"Well, I'll look for one, in the mean time, the spell for walking on clouds?", she said.
After Blu had agreed to the terms and conditions, and what might go wrong, he said calmly "Well, if I can make someone happier doing it, then I'm fine with it."
Twilight closed her eyes, and pointed her horn at Blu, he was getting a little bit anxious again. She looked like she was thinking too hard, "Twili- Blu managed to get out before he couldn't speak. He couldn't feel his mouth, he had a massive purple cloud around him, and it looked weird. "Mhmf-" he mumbled. His feet got a strange tingling sensation, which made his way up his legs, into his stomach, through his chest, and his arms, and then he blacked out.
After a few brief glimpses of Twilight over him, he got up, "Twilight, did it work?" he said, hoping beyond his capacity.
"I don't know, care to test it?" she asked,
"YESYESYESYESYES!" he raged.
Twilight backup up, scared a bit-only at the shouting, "C'mon then, to clouds dale." she said. They walked outside the library, Blu was okay with this world, besides, his agoraphobia seemed to have died, along with his conceptions about a pony world.
Blu and Twilight eventually arrived at a hot air balloon. "Whoa!" shouted Blu, this world was getting more cooler all the time.
"Well, get in?" she said, half commanding, half asking.
"Yeah…" Blu was too amazed to speak about the hot air balloon.
"Cloudsdale" she said to a stallion, stood near it, he nodded, and pulled a lever, the balloon was now going up, "Luckily, if you want to see derpy, she lives in that house over-".
Blu interrupted her, "Wow, you can make houses out of clouds?" he said, with sheer amazement.
"Yes." she simply replied. Blu looked around as the balloon stopped at cloud level. He opened the door, and stepped out. He was expecting to fall straight through, but in actual fact, all that happened, is that the cloud he stepped on, felt like concrete.
Twilight gave him a goodbye. And Blu started his adventure of trying to get to Derpy's house. While he was walking, he noticed three ponies, dressed in strange blue and yellow costumes, they were stood near a sign-wave that they were also in, it read "WONDER BOLTS". So, this is the wonder bolts is it?
Blu walked up to them, it was easier, because he was a human, and they were surrounded by ponies, and asked "Excuse me? I've heard that your famous from a…friend, whatever for?" They looked at him, the three of them, one female, and two male. They hardly seemed to notice him, after looking at him for a second.
The crowd started to trample his feet, so he left.
"Now, dear Derpy, there are some things I wish to discuss with you…" he started off, trying to imagine how he'd start to converse, when suddenly, from in front of him came a,
"Like what?" Blu hadn't paid attention to what he was doing.
"Oh, Derpy, like um… Look, I don't want to make you sad again, so I'll just get it over with, Applejack told me…about Dinky-strange, that means small where I come from-it is a pun?"
Derpy didn't have an expression when he'd started talking, just a blank face.
"Well, it means that here too, silly. I chose it, because she's my little muffin." she said, with a happy face.
"And, also, I'd like to know, for personal reasons, why if "what's his name" did, you know, then did that change something with DNA, because why else would Dinky be a unicorn?" he said.
With still, the same face, she said "I'm not sure, why, what's your reason?" she said, Blu didn't mind answering the question, seeing as he didn't know what he'd done that night,
"Well, I may have 'done it' with Rainbow Dash. I mean, I don't know, I remember she kissed me, then it stops there…" he trailed off, seeing Derpy's face change from expressionless to slightly agitated.
"Well, let me tell you something, if that did happen, don't you dare leave her, that would ruin everything." she said. Her face went to happy, "And it's nice to see you walking on clouds." Blu looked at her, saying bye as she left, how is it that ponies can be angry, then happy, all in 10 seconds?
Well, whatever this was, it didn't matter right now, because Blu thought again, 'I've visited Twilight, Applejack I see every night, Rainbow-may have impregnated her, Pinkie, Rarity and Fluttershy.' "Pinkie first, no, Fluttershy, yeah." he said quietly, looking down the edge of a cloud, seeing the town of Ponyville's street market place, he could see Fluttershy down there. So he, without quite thinking properly, jumped off of the cloud.
"OH GOD!" he shouted, he was falling, and there was no way to stop it, "HELP!" he shouted. Some of the ponies looked up, and some Pegasus ponies stared at him, as though they thought he was trying to fly, never-the-less, 2 Pegasus and Fluttershy jumped into the air, and grabbed him, about 4 metres from the ground. "Th-Th-Thanks Fluttershy, and by the way, I wanted to know if you had anything I could use for-" he stopped and looked at her, she looked terrified beyond belief, "Oh, sorry, I wasn't thinking." he said.
"No-it's ok, really" she snapped back into reality, "Just don't do it again, you might have been hurt. And what did you want?" she finished.
"What? Oh yeah, I need to borrow something from you, it doesn't matter though."
She smiled, "Ok, well, if that's all you wanted, goodbye." she said, before galloping off.
'Fluttershy, check.' Blu thought.
He walked down the street, until he came across a tall, slender building, white-mainly, and it had Rarity written all over it. Blu walked up to the door, and knocked, "Hello?, residence of Rarity?" he asked, there was no answer. He was about to walk away when he heard some humming sounds, and the door was covered in a blue-ish cloud, magic? He was right, the door opened, with Rarity behind it, using her magic to open it.
"Hello Blu, dear. However could I help you?" she said in a very posh, British-like accent.
"Well, yes, I came to see if you could supply me with some clothes, I know I'd obviously had to pay, but I'm getting a bit stinky." he said. Rarity's face lit with curiosity and excitement,
"No, no dear. It would be my pleasure to work with something new."
"So, er…" Blu started until Rarity said he could come in.
"Thank you!" shouted Rarity, she looked so happy to see him.
She told him to follow her, she went upstairs, and into a room on the right, he didn't see how this fit into the building, but It was magic anyway.
"Well, I've already got some costumes for you, I originally made them for…didn't like…thought you might?" she tried to say it in one sentence, but it didn't work.
"Yeah, sure, ill try on some clothes." Blu said, he'd got sweat under his arms, and on the back of his neck… He wasn't used to this heat.
"Okay, here we go" said Rarity.
She used her horn to get a white t-shirt, with small diamonds stitched into the sleeve like a stripe. "Oh my god, that looks awesome" he said, "But er, may I use your washroom, I don't want to get it sweaty." Rarity pointed a hoof at the door across from the room they were in. Blu rushed to the bathroom, he washed himself with the water from the tap, quickly. When he'd done, he got out of the bathroom, and rejoined Rarity.
"Let me try it on!" Blu shouted. It was the best top he'd ever seen. He took of his top. Rarity turned around, respecting his privacy.
When he got the top on, Rarity turned around, "Oh, wow, that suits you excellently!" she said. Blu thought about his favourite song, maybe because he was so happy. "Ponies rocking in the house, tonight!" LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem.
Rarity looked at him, "Yes, I'm sure they are. That sounds like something Vinyl Scratch would like to play."
'MY PHONE!' Blu didn't think about his phone before he arrived, he took it out of his pocket, "Hey listen to the real thing." he said.
After about 6 minutes, the song finished. "Yes, I'm sure she'd like that, very much, and also, what it that?" she asked him.
Blu replied "It's a phone, you can talk to ponies on it, but no-one here has one, but me, so it's only good really for filming and songs…" he finished, now going into his mind with the sentence.
Suddenly, a small purple character walked into the room, "Rarity, I've finished the mess in Sweetie's room."
'Oh, it was spike, this was bound to end well' Blu thought. But to his surprise, Spike instead held out a hand, well claw,
"Hi, I'm sorry about before, it's just that-" he stopped hi there, shaking his claw and saying,
"Well, at least you apologized for it, and I know exactly what that evil cretin did, Spike…" Spike seemed to be confused, "What do you mean, at least I apologized"?" he said.
Blu stopped shaking his claw, and he and Rarity had started walking downstairs, he wasn't sure why. He hadn't been paying attention again. "Well, on earth, where I come from, if your attacked, viciously" spike looked down, "It was only a joke, but still, on earth, no-one would have apologized." he said. It was getting to 6pm-ish time.
"Sorry, Rarity, Spike, but I have to do some more things, and little time to do it in." They both nodded,
"Oh, and, I'll let you have it, because you've proved Luke wrong." Blu couldn't help but talk about this a little bit more
"What?" he said, "well, he said once that all humans were evil and conniving, but, you are not." she said. He waved goodbye, and left the building.
"Pinkie-" he said, before she herself, from out of nowhere appeared,
"Hey Blu, how are you?" she said in his face.
"Pinkie!" he screamed, "Don't ever do that again! You scared the living he- 'hell? No… hay out of me!" he said, calming down.
"Okie dokie!" she shouted.
Blu walked with the bouncing bundle of joy for about 10 minutes before she brought up the subject of how he arrived.
"You know, It was when I was in my room. I was there, and there was a shape in my doorway, like a pony!" Pinkie looked happy no matter what he said."I remember what they looked like too."
Pinkie gasped, "HUUUUU, you need to tell Twilight!" Blu put his hand over her mouth,
"Yeah, tomorrow, but I've got bigger issues." Pinkie stopped bouncing,
"Like what?" she asked. Blu spoke without thinking, "Well, I might have become a dad with Rainbow-CRAP!" he shouted, Pinkie stood there, gasping all the time, "Oh, I wasn't supposed to tell you, or anypony else!" he shouted, he ran from pinkie to the hospital, which was conveniently close to him.
"Rainbow?!" he shouted, when he got to the hospital, he looked though one of the windows to see Rainbow sitting like a pony on a chair, inside. He knocked on the window. She looked up, and smiled, she ran off. Not really, she just ran to the front entrance, she had a smile on her face still, like an expression that said, something's wrong, but it's fine.
"So, erm…" he started. Rainbow looked into his eyes,
"Hey, Blu, I remember…" she said, "what we did, last night." she continued. Before she could finish her sentence, Pinkie ran up to them, with the other four, Rarity had followed Blu to where Pinkie met him, and they both got Twilight, Fluttershy and Applejack.
"Right…" said Blu rubbing the back of his neck.
"Blu, what did you do!" shouted Twilight, the others didn't look to impressed either. Rarity and Pinkie looked like they had just seen a tragic accident, it's not like they hadn't.
"Blu, just tell us what happened?" said Applejack.
"What is the problem?" said Fluttershy.
All these questions, even he didn't have the answer. "I-I-Oh, good lord, ask Rainbow, She remembers!" he shouted, all the other 5 ponies looked at Rainbow.
"Well?" they spoke in unison.
"It started when I saw you setting up that party at Pinkie's house, which is why she met him outside, and not invite him in." she started.
"And, I went to tell Blu, because I was so exited, but I remembered when he called me beautiful…" She stopped for a little bit, looking embarrassed.
"well?" said Twilight, looking displeased. Rainbow Dash continued, "Well, he was at Applejack's house, so I knocked on the window, and he let me in, I…" she was definitely not saying the next bit, so Blu said it for her,
"Kissed me?" he said, she nodded,
"Yeah, and then we got more into it, and the answer, simply…" she stopped again.
All of the 5 ponies and Blu were eagerly awaiting the answer.
"Yes, we did." she said.
"Oh, oh god-" said Blu, the memory suddenly rushing back to him, 'Maybe my brain erased it because it was graphical?' he thought.
"But did he get you…"
'No-one liked to finish sentences!' he shouted in his head. "Did I get you pregnant?" he asked, making all the ponies, bar Rainbow dash flinch.
"Well, I took a test" said Rainbow, now her voice sounded tense.
"So was it positive or negative?!" said Twilight, by this point, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie had become too shocked to speak.
Rainbow dash shook her head, "I can't tell you…" she said.
"Why not?" asked Twilight.
"Because Dr. Hooves hasn't got the results yet." Just as she said that, a pony with a white coat ran at us,
"Rainbow, I have good news, even better news, and bad news.
Blu stared at him, "Give us the good news, the bad news, then the even better?" he asked.
Dr. Hooves nodded, "Well, good news, depending on your perspective, I've got the results." she said, "bad news-you'll need to take another test to be sure."
Rainbow nodded, "Can do." she said, blushing slightly.
"And the even better news?" everyone nodded, and looked either shocked or exited, bar Blu, who looked scared,
"Well, the test you took, it's…"
Derpy gave him a quick smile, then said she had to leave. "Applejack, why is Derpy's Daughter a unicorn? And what happened to… you know?"
Applejack looked at Blu, "Well, 'you know' is the reason Derpy even has a kid." she whispered, as Blu and Applejack got into the house, Blu suddenly realized what she meant.
'Oh, god, that makes me feel awful, Derpy, poor Derpy .' Blu thought to himself.
Three fillies ran up to Applejack, and shouted in near unison, "Can we start the slumber party now?!" Applejack had a tired gaze in her eyes.
"Yes, girls, but don't be makin' too much mess now, ya hear?"
Apple…bloom, was it, Applejack's Filly sister said something. "Wanna join us?" Blu couldn't believe this, he turned around trying to find someone else in the room but failed, then turned back to Applebloom, he pointed at himself, Applebloom nodded. He looked at applejack, she nodded.
"Okay." he said.
"Scootaloo, show…" she got stuck with his name.
"Blu." he said.
"Show Blu where he'll be sleepin'?" she said it with more of a posh voice, Blu shrugged. He heard singing from upstairs, as Scootaloo, 'Scootaloo, ha-ha, but really? ' took him upstairs.
"I heard you kissed Rainbow dash?" she said.
"Not really, she kissed me, I called her beautiful, but I was disorientated." he said.
"Sure" she grinned. She seemed to find this hilarious. As they came to the bedroom, Scootaloo opened the door, and a white pony, with a blue, purple, and white striped mane, was there, tidying up, with a lovely singing voice.
"Sweetie Belle, look who it is!" she shouted, Sweetie Belle turned and looked at me, she had a grin on her face too.
"I bet that story has reached everyone by now." Blu said.
They both nodded, Applebloom came into the room, with a tray of goodies. Blu noticed at once, all of them, the three, had curiously blank flanks. "Why don't you have any marks on your flanks?" he asked.
Sweetie belle laughed, "You mean cutie marks?" she sniggered it as though he'd just finished year one at school.
"Yeah, I wondered what they were." he said.
"Well, ya earn one when ya realize ya--".
Blu spoke, "Oh, yeah. Applejack told me that part." Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle sat in a circle, they asked Blu to join them. "What exactly is this game?" he asked.
"Ain't ya never played truth or dare?" asked Applebloom.
Blu answered with "Ain't had any friends." They looked shocked, "Well, I had 2 friends, but I don't know them any more."
The three fillies burst out again in near unison, "You can be our friend!" And for the first time in a long time, apart from arriving and some of the other nice things, he got the feeling that he never wanted to leave. Was that Celestia's so called lesson, that not everything is bad? No matter what people thought of him back home, he had friends here, actual friends!
"Truth or dare, I think I know it." he said, he sat down with them, and Sweetie Belle took the first spin, it landed on Applebloom.
Applejack shouted from downstairs, "1 game, then sleep, me and Blu gotta get up early for something!"
"Truth." said Applebloom, Scootaloo whispered something into Sweetie Belle's ear.
"Truth: who do you 'like '?"
Applebloom looked at me, then back at Sweetie Belle… "Well, I like, err, Spike?"
"I knew it!" Said sweetie. Applebloom's turn came, and she span the bottle, it landed on Sweetie Belle, her eyes filled with revenge.
"Truth or dare" she asked. Sweetie huffed and said dare. "Dare: I dare you to kiss Blu on the cheek, and she did so without hesitation, which cause Blu to fall over backwards.
"Ha, I did it!" she shouted, Blu wasn't sure if they'd taken him into consideration. Sweetie belle span the bottle, it landed on Scootaloo, she said truth… The game went on for at least 20 minutes, making the time around 11pm, until only Blu and Applebloom were in the game. Blu had tried to give up so many times, but she hadn't listened to him. Blu dared her to quit the game, that way, she took the dare, and ended the game, or she failed and Blu won, ending the game also.
She took it.
"Goodnight, girls, and Blu!" she said before getting into a bed, Scootaloo did the same, and Sweetie Belle likewise.
"I'll just err…" Blu started, but he didn't want to make a fuss, so he used the bedroom next door, which was Applejack's room, fortunately he was able to sleep there seeing as Applejack was sleeping on the sofa.
Blue got nice and comfortable, "This is the best world ever, I don't ever want to leave." Just as he was about to drift off, he heard a banging noise, and somepony was outside the window, "Dash?" he said.
"Yeah!" came a muffled voice.
Blu opened the window, and let Dash in, "What's a matter?" he asked her.
"Well, Twilight, and…" she'd flown far, "The others, I went… see them…no-pony in their homes, saw them… setting up a party." she took a big breathe, "For you I think, again…" she smiled, and then kissed Blu again.
"Look dash, you really need to stop that, it won't work…" Blu trailed off, as Dash kissed him again, this time he didn't seem to mind. Suddenly there was a flash, and Rainbow and Blu fell on the bed. ""What the...?" whispered Blu. The flash got bigger and Blu couldn't see anything but white, he looked over and Rainbow was floating, unconscious. Then he fell also lost consciousness.
The next morning!
Blu woke up in the bed, Applejack's bed, he looked over to see rainbow dash in the bed too. 'No, oh god, please, I didn't, I can't remember! ' he thought.
Rainbow dash woke up suddenly and stared at Blu, and the bed. "Did we--", Blu had started.
She interrupted before Blu could finish. "I don't know, I cant remember last night, I told you about the party, then…blank!".
Great, now Blu had probably done something he shouldn't have, though it was so weird, he didn't want to think about it. At least he was still wearing his clothes.
