Kalacos's journey
days work.
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI woke up and took in the surrounding's for I did not have enough time to the night before I crashed in my bed. It was a red colored barn with hay stacked on the side. There was also chicken feed in some corners of the room. I looked down at my bed and it wasn't a bed. It was some hay put together with a blue blanket over the top of me and white pillows. I did not remember falling asleep with a blanket over me so I could only expect that Applejack put it over me last night when I was asleep. I got up.
"Ugh, why does everything hurt?" I asked myself. I looked out the window in the barn and I saw Applejack walking with a red stallion. They both had buckets over there back and were walking to a place filled with apples tress. I decided to follow them. When I caught up with Applejack she saw me and smiled
"Hey Kalacos feeling better this morning?" Applejack asked. I tried to talk but realized how dry my throat was. Applejack chuckled and shuffled around in her rucksack and pulled out a small bottle with an apple on it. She passed it to me and I took a sip. It made my whole body fill with warmth.
"Ummmm..... what is this?" I asked and started smiling widely.
"Apple juice," she said defiantly. When I finished I looked at the stallion that was watching me.
"Who is he?" I asked Applejack using my head to show Applejack the red stallion I was looking at. She looked at him and
then turned back to me with a smile.
"That's Big Macontash. My brother," she exclaimed I nodded and sighed out of boredom. "If you are bored would you mind helping me and Big Mac here." I nodded happily. She looked me up and down which made a major blush shine on my
face. She looked back up at me. "You look pretty strong. do you want to do some apple bucking?"
"What is apple bucking?" I asked honestly
"Well I can get Big Mac to teach you how to do it," She exclaimed.
"Ok," I said and followed Applejack and Big Mac too the trees. When we were there, Applejack went to another part of the farm and left me and Big Mac in awkward silence. I decided to break the ice.
"So I hear that your Applejack's brother," I said.
"Eeyup," he said. I looked at him expecting him to say more, but he didn't. Finally we made it to the last tree and put the bucket down under it. Suddenly he turned around and lined himself up in front of the tree with his legs raised. He then lashed out and hit the tree perfectly in the middle, it made all the apples fall off. he turned around and smirked. My face obviously looked quite funny from shock.
"Here you can do this tree," he exclaimed using his head to point at the tree, "You just got to hit as hard as you can in the middle. If any apples fall on the ground just pick them up and put them in the basket. Granny smith washes them anyway."
"Who's granny smith?" I asked.
"Oh she is our moms mom," he said.
"Oh. where is your mom?" I asked but then immediately regretted it as a sad look covered his face.
"Lets just keep Bucking," he said. I nodded and went to the tree. I lined myself up at the center. I lifted my legs up like Big Mac said to and lashed out with my legs. I opened my eyes and listened out but didn't hear any apples fall off the tree. Suddenly there was a loud bang and I turned around to see a straight line of tress on the floor. At the back the tree that I hit was at the bottom of a rock that had a huge crack in it. I turned around and Big Mac was staring at where the tree went in surprise and then back at me.
"How..... How did you," he stuttered. I looked down at the floor in shame and was about to apologize when suddenly. "Ok. You may be too strong for apple bucking. How would you like to try out plowing the fields." I nodded and he issued me to follow him into a field that had a big metal plow with a rope. He showed me how to put it on and what to do and I got to work.
"This is quite easy," I said to myself and carried on going.
I finished the field and feel to the ground in exhaustion. I closed my eyes and rested and when I opened them again Applejack was standing over me with a cheeky grin.
"You know that you did not need to do the whole field right," she exclaimed chuckling. I groaned and slammed my head against the floor. "Anyway I need to head into Ponyville to get some supplies want to come?" I sighed but nodded non the less and stood up.
When we made it to Ponyville she told me to wait and I agreed happily and stumped down to the floor. Then I saw the yellow pony Fluttershy walking to the center of the town the way that Applejack did. I tried to call her name but I was so tired it came out quietly. Fluttershy heard it anyway and turned around shyly but as soon as her eyes landed on me her eyes widened and she ran to me.
"Oh my gosh are you ok?" She asked.
"Not really," I replied honestly.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Oh nothing much. Just plowed a whole field. ow OW what are you doing?" I said while she placed her hoof on where the strap went. She helped me up and I smiled at her. She had a major blush and turned away shyly.
"Um. well. A good rest will help that," she said so quietly I had to strain to hear her. She then looked the other way. "I....I have to go."
"Oh. ok then. Bye," I said overwhelmed by how shy she is. She nodded and walked off. Suddenly I saw Applejack walking up to me.
"Hey Kalacos we just have to get one more thing then we will be off<" she exclaimed. She turned around and realized that I wasn't following her. "You can follow me this time." I nodded and started following her. We cam to a place named, sugar cub corner, we walked in and all the lights were off.
"Maybe it is closed," I said and as soon as I did the lights blared on.
"SUPRISE," many voices spoke up. In the room there were dozens of ponies and loads of balloons on the floor and streamers hanging off the roof. There was a banner that 'WELCOME TO PONYVILLE KALACOS'. There were loads of tasty looking snakes and drinks on tables and my stomach rumbled. realized how hungry I was. I was about to grab some food when a pink hoof shot over my shoulder.
"Hey Kalacos. You might remember me from last night. I'm Pinkie Pie and I through this part just for you," she exclaimed happily.
"For..... for me?" I asked. "But why?"
"To welcome you to Ponyville silly. And meet every pony," she exclaimed happily. I smirked and she dragged me to the group of ponies who were in the hospital with me the night before. "Hey guys. Kalacos you remember Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow don't you?" she pointed to each one with there names. I nodded.
"Hey Kalacos your looking better," Twilight stated.
"Thanks. I feel better well apart from aching but that's a different reason," I said.
"Yeah. Applejack told us how you just plowed a whole field and broke of her trees cracking a rock in the process," Rainbow said and suddenly burst out laughing. The others followed suit and I grinned a little while looking shyly at the ground.
"Oh darling that is simply hilarious," Rarity said. Suddenly my stomach rumbled and Pinkie was behind me suddenly like she teleported.
"You must be hungry. Here have this," she said hoofing me a tasty looking treat. I took a bit from it and after the first bite gobbled the rest down straight away.
"Hmmmm. This is so good. What is this?" I asked Pinkie swalling the last bits of the treat.
"A cupcake," she said. I was about to go get another one when there was a tug at my flank. I looked down to see I purple lizard.
"Hey I'm spike. You must be Kalacos," Spike said.
"Hey. Erm. What...." I said trying not to sound rude.
"I'm a dragon," He said blowing green flames for emphasis. I chuckled at how he said dragon like he was really important and big. I got another cup cake.
"Nice to meet you spike," I said.
At the end of the party, I was more tired then I was before it. I collapsed on a chair and put my head against the table out of exhaustion. I closed my eyes for a second and when I opened them again, six figures were standing over me wearing smiles.
"Hey Kalacos. You look really ill,"" Pinkie exclaimed. I groaned and grabbed by head with my hooves when a massive headache struck. Every pony gasped but I couldn't open my eyes for a second but when I did a tall and elegant white mare with wings and a horn was at the door.
"Hello Twilight, friends. And who is this?" the mysterious pony asked looking at me.
"Princess Celestia. What are you doing here?" Twilight asked her. My eyes widened when I heard the status that Twilight called her. Princess.
"That does not matter Twilight. How is this?" the Princess asked.
"Oh. Oh right. Princess. This is Kalacos," Twilight exclaimed. A dark look shrouded the Princess's face. She looked at me and gave me a smile but it was obviously forced.
"Hello Kalacos. I.... I'm sorry Twilight. I am in a rush I have to go," The princess exclaimed.
"Oh erm, ok. But why did you come here Princess?" Twilight asked.
"Hmmm. Oh, oh right yes," the princess said pulling out some tickets from somewhere. "I want to invite you six to the eclipse that is appearing in 2 weeks. Would you attend?"
"Yes of course," Twilight said excitedly.#
"What's and eclipse?" I asked.
"An eclipse is a mix between the sky in the day and at the night," the Princess exclaimed.
"This is the first one in a thousand years that has accord," Twilight said.
"Yeah is going to be totally awesome," Rainbow stated excitedly.
"Yes. Anyway, goodbye Twilight my faithful student. I will see you all at the Eclipse. And you Kalacos," Princess said. While she was walking at the door I swear I heard her say. "You'll need to be there. For all of us."
(In canterlot and the Princess's castle balcony.)
Luna and Celestia was perched on the balcony looking over the sleeping city.
"This Eclipse can not go on Luna. It's dangerous," Celestia said.
"We can not argue with fait Celestia. You of all ponies should know that," Luna exclaimed.
"I know your right. But what if _______ comes?" Celestia asked
"Then we will protect are subjects. Like we did last time," Luna stated.
Luna left the Balcony leaving Celestia looking at the stars.
"Please don't be true. Not know," Celestia pleaded and walked in after her sister.
