Wake up Sunshine

*Somewhere in the Everfree Forest*

Spartan 1337 woke up at what his HUD recorded to be around 10 am in the morning. His armor had finally unlocked and left him with the capacity to move freely. He would definitely stand up and start figuring out where the hell he was if it wasn’t for the enormous pain coming from his chest. Apparently the fall he had taken really did break some of his ribs. With some pain he was able to turn upward and catch the scenery around him. He appeared to be in some sort of rainforest judging from the flora surrounding him. I guess being lost and alone makes some things more beautiful from time to time.

The day was shining without any sort of clouds in the sky to impede the pass of sunlight. 1337 could stay in this position for a while, after all in the life of a spartan one really never catched much of a break to relax. I think I’ve never felt such a good feeling in my life. The Spartan thought to himself as he slowly moved into a sitting position avoiding as much pain as possible. He was about to check if he brought any sort of weapons when from behind him an enormous growl took place and filled him with dread. Well, the good feeling is gone. He stood still expecting the whatever it was would mistook for some part of the forest. Sadly though, it was apparent that falling through a wormhole left one stinking like an odd mixture of engine oil and burned rubber. The creature before him was obviously aware of him and could probably smell his position about five miles in any direction.

The Spartan inspected the creature that would be planning to either kill him for assaulting its nostrils or eat him for breakfast. It was like a lion, though this odd one appeared to have a scorpion’s tale and batwings. “What kind of fucked up romantic encounter made you!?” The Spartan yelled at the monstrosity before him. This gave the spartan the newly found knowledge that even though the creature couldn’t speak, it could obviously understand him followed by an enormous growl in his face and his wings flaring up in a killing stance. “No worries you foul beast. You shall soon know the power of my assault rifle!” He said as he passed his hand over his back and found that nothing was magnetically attached. *flashback* Here Doc, hold my rifle while I put the turret in place.* * “Shit! Well in that case I guess you just have to deal with my magnum!” He said as he found his empty holster. *flashback* Get my magnum too, my awesomeness could possible be interrupted by the gun.** “Well thats just bad luck.” The Spartan said while looking at the dumbfounded creature.

I guess there is only one way out of this, the spartan thought. “HOLY CRAP WHAT’S OVER THERE!?”, he shouted while pointing in a random direction. The creature looked away and the spartan took this cue to run the fuck away from the situation. He might’ve been kind of a clutz but he was still a spartan and was capable of running at incredibly fast speeds. Not many things would be able to catch him or even get near him. Eventually after travelling about five miles straight the forest started to fade and he found himself out of it soon enough. When he stopped he found something he wasn’t expecting, something out of stories. He found that he had found a big piece of nothingness in front of him. There were no signs of civilisation whatsoever, only plainfield going up to the horizon. He took a moment to check his com and found that there was no signal whatsoever. The animal he had seen did not match any known living creatures he had learned about. Finally the adrenaline rush the spartan had with his encounter with the beast ran down and it was now time to get another unplanned decisive nap since the pain of such exertion over his broken chest caught up to him. The spartan though didn't faint, he instead just fell to the floor and decided to rest for awhile and think of plan. The day was new and it would probably be best to search for shelter before the night came.

*Ponyville Market*

“Hey Applejack!”, said Twilight gleefully as she approached her cart in the market square. “I’ll take home five red delicious and three granny smiths if I can.”

“Of course ya can sugarcube! Im guessing youre prepping for the week huh?” replied Applejack as she carefully selected her friend’s order.

Twilight simply nodded in response an waited as her apple were loaded onto a basket. She looked around the stall and oddly didnt find Applebloom assisting her sister that day. “Hey wheres Applebloom? Doesnt she usually help you sell the apples at the stall?”

“She usually does, but today she ran off ta talk to her friends of a certain explosion we heard yesterday night.” Applejack answered the whereabout of her little sister. “Do ya happen to know what that ruckus was all about?”

“As a matter fact I do!” replied Twilight happily knowing that for once an explosion didnt meant having to unite the elements of harmony against some sort of evil. “Luna was just re-arranging some stars and one got mishandled and ended landing nearby. Celestia said not to worry about it.”

“Well aint that a pleasant surprise? Nowadays it appears that everythings out ta get us. Hehe.” Applejack said while presenting Twilight with her apples. “Ah reckon that'll be 10 bits.”

“Thank you Applejack, I better get going before Spike finds that hidden ice cream in he freezer he doesnt know I know he searches for.”

Applejack laughed at the image of the little dragon raiding the fridge to search for ice cream. “Take care Twilight, have a nice day.”

Both mares went their separate ways, or rather one went her way and the other kept in her business while continuing with the regular and oddly peaceful day.

Will our hero eventually reach Ponyville? Or will he get into rather strange complications. Stay tuned in for more.
