Winters blessing

September 7th fall

The sound of the alarm rang throughout my room, I looked at the alarm clock to see that it was 7:00 am. I had plenty of time before I had to get to work. I love working as an architect, the money I make is great and it lets me live pretty comfortably. Just as I got up I heard a couple of pops from my back, a satisfied sigh came out as I stood up and grabbed my clothes for the day which consisted of a pair of black pants and a plain white shirt.

Setting my clothes aside, I then begin my morning routine which consisted of doing a few pushups and crunches. Completing those I entered my bathroom and turned on the warm water of my shower, as I felt the appropriate temperature cascade on my hand, I entered my shower and washed my full head of hair which was always a spiked mess. I finished my shower and walked over to my sink, I grabbed my toothpaste tube and brushed my teeth. That done I left the bathroom and got dressed, ready for the day to start.

I walked around my two story house that I moved into after moving out of my parents house a year ago. They were sad to see me go but I was happy to leave. Mostly because they bickered about the stupidest things which made me embarrassed that they were my parents. I always either got a letter or a phone call from either my mom or dad saying that they missed me and they cared for me. Ya know, normal parent stuff and I felt like I should answer them back.

I decide that working today was a must since the company that paid me wanted the sketches done by Friday and today was Tuesday. After making breakfast which consisted of eggs, bacon, and toast. I made my way towards my living room after turning on my TV the local news reported on some weird weather happening over Colorado.

Calling it weird weather I noticed this weather from time to time. It would be sunny, then it would be raining for a couple minutes to sunny again, this happened for the past few days. After eating breakfast I shut off my TV and walked over to my stereo and turned on one of my favorite music genres rock. Most people would consider this kind of music that would rot your brain, but rock songs gave me confidence at doing my job. Anyway, I turned on the stereo and put on the ballad of Mona Lisa by Panic! At the disco.

I started my drawing by using a ruler to add detail to a single story house making the corners pop out and sketched other small details such as a small bolt of lightning. I don't know why but my bosses always liked it when I added my insignia, they always added the insignia when the building was finished. I finished the sketch at around 2:00 P.M. Most of that time I spent was checking over my work and making sure there were no screw ups. Once I was finished I looked out the window that was towards my backyard and saw that it was raining, it was normal for rain to come by during fall, but something was much more different, there was a weird feeling that something was out there. I saw three figures move around in my backyard, it was raining heavily so I couldn't see what they were but I definitely saw something. I quickly ran up stairs and grabbed my gun. I put on my jacket and walked outside I walked around for awhile and saw the figures again enter my shed, slowly I walked towards the small building.

As I entered, I flicked on the switch to see three naked girls shivering and wet. I saw that they had some cuts on their arms and chest, but the strangest thing was that instead of skin, they had fur. One had short purple hair and a orange coat. While another had long red hair with a bow a few shades lighter than her hair with a yellow coat. And the last one had a mix of light pink and purple hair along with a white coat and they all looked really tired as if they just went through hell.

The orange coated one tackled me to the ground and tried to punch but I end up blocking every hit.

"Will you calm down, I'm not here to hurt you." I said to the girl.

"Oh yeah! That's what the last guy said before he tried to rape us!" She shouted. "Get away from us!"

"Look you're on my property shouting at me, I'm here to offer you shelter, not hurt you or touch you, okay?" I said to the girl.

"Scootaloo, let him up. He's right we just can't hurt him in assumption." The white coated girl said

"What! You're taking his side Sweetie Belle?" She shouted

"I'm not taking anypony's side. I'm just saying that were on his property and he's try to help us." The girl named Sweetie Belle said calmly. She was hurt and bleeding quite a bit but with a few rolls of gauze and alcohol she should be fixed.

"What about you Applebloom, do you trust him?" The orange coated girl named Scootaloo said to yellow coated girl.

"I dunno, but he wants to help us so let's just go with him. But If he hurts any of us then you can hurt him." The yellow coated girl named Applebloom said.

Scootaloo got off my body and threatened me.

"If you hurt my friends I'll hurt you ten times worse." She said with plenty of venom in her voice.

I got up from the floor, then we all ran quickly into my house and I turned up my heater making sure it was warm enough for them. I lead them to my living room and told them to wait while I went and got some supplies, running around the house real quick I grabbed a bundle of towels and the first aid kit I have in case of emergencies. I offered them all a towel which they took happily and I got to work looking over their wounds one at a time. While they were drying off their fur, hair, and surprising me, their tails I would have to guess that, on the size of their bodies, that they were all either close to me in age or even younger. Finishing cleaning their wounds and, to my relief, they wrapping themselves in the towels for more warmth. we then sat down in my living room and looked at each other until I finally broke the silence.

"What are you girls? Also why were you three in the rain?" I asked

"Well, we are ponies and it all started when we were in our home town of Ponyville just laying about. When it started raining out of nowhere, there were no scheduled storms for today and after awhile we decided to walk home but a large blast of lightening struck all three of us and it was really painful, the electricity went through our bodies, paralyzing us and we woke up in a forest." Sweetie Belle explained

"Then we were approached by some guy, he had that thing you have in your hand and said not to scream. We didn't, but we were afraid. He then started touching us, if it weren't for Sweetie Belle we would've been-" Scootaloo stop talking and looked like she was going to cry. Trying to sound as comforting as I could I said.

"Look, we can talk more about this tomorrow if you want. There's a bedroom upstairs if you girls want to go get some sleep and don't worry about me trying anything, I'll be sleeping down here tonight if you need anything. It will be the second door on your right and there is a bathroom across the hall." They thanked me and walked upstairs towards the bedroom. I stood there in disbelief that there was a group of humanoid ponies in my house, three to be exact, but now they're just trying to get home. Gathering the first aid kit back together and putting it away, I went back to the living room and grabbed a pillow and a blanket. Lying down my last thoughts of this strange day was that hopefully they'll shed some more light on their current situation in the morning.
