Book: The Magical Arts of Wishes (Is going to be Revised)

Ponyville Hate

After a refreshing sleep and some breakfast magicked up by Moon. She and I made our way through the forest talking about random subjects like hobbies, a bit about sports, and our favorite places to go when were stressed or need to think. We got so caught up in a long argument about how the Forth of July wasn't a holiday, we almost missed the sign that said 'Welcome to Ponyville' on it.

"Well Moon, I guess we'll have to continue this verbal tussle later, we are at the town." I say breaking Moon off mid-sentence in her explanation of how I was wrong. "Ponyville, a rather stereotypical name if you'd ask me, but I guess I could wrong." I start to walk a few steps but after noticing Moon wasn't following me I stopped, and looked back at her. "Something wrong?"

"Yes," Moon said with a frown on her face." I find myself thinking it may be not such a good idea. Maybe you should go and I should and I'll go back to the forest." I turned around to face her fully and give her a look of concern. "Thanks for the encouragement Jayden..."

"Moon, what are you talking about?" I ask walking back over to her. "Listen up my lady of night," saying that clearly shocked her into listening for her ears perked up signaling I now had her complete and undivided attention. "See this place? Look around you, does this seem like a place is dangerous?" Moon looked around hesitantly before her eyes looked to me, who gave her a warm smile. "Moon, I'll be with you the whole time, I won't leave your side at all. There is no reason to fear or be feared, because fear is weakness in your mind and only gets bigger the more you second guess your own decisions. I know what that is like and while you may grow in experience, your heart will become a hardened shell of hate and result in hurting yourself even more." I let a long moment of silence pass before I spoke again. "To be honest, I don't want you to end up like you were before, in the short time I've come to know you, I know you are kind... While you may seem a bit intimidating, no offense, if you have a kind enough heart to be kind to me... You have enough to share with everyo- er... everypony else."

"..." Moon remained silent for a while but she took a few steps past the sign and into the town. "Are you coming?" I nod simply and walk up next to her and we start making our way into town. Apparently it was a Sunday, because nopony was around outside. Either that or nopony has gotten up yet and is taking a siesta. I am grateful for that though, I think I'd be a lot harder on Moon if there were ponies out and about. Screaming at her, or running away afraid of her, something to that extent would be very frustrating for her and myself. " It doesn't seem like anypony is around right now..." I nod in agreement to her statement and look around a bit more at our surroundings, a few signs of businesses and restaurants, nothing that really catches my eye as we walk down the dirt road.

"Where is everypony? I saw lights from the houses last night... Maybe they partied all last night and some pony spiked the punch?" A guess but given that nopony was around that did seem like a reasonable hypothesis, considering these circumstances. Looking around I notice a huge tree with a door in it with windows and a little mailbox that seems to be held together by a a bungee chord and some duct tape. Whoever delivers the mail must either have major thrill issues or is just plain recklessness. "Why not give the door a knock? Maybe somepony lives here." I trot over to the door while my wing gestures for Moon to follow. While my wings seem to look useful they aren't really, when I want them to work the don't cooperate with me. When I don't think about it they move. I could count my lucky stars and wish they would cooperate with my thoughts but that would be ridicules. As if I could just wish they'd work ha what a laugh.

Looking back to moon to see her right behind me looking rather nervously at the door in front of me. "Ready?" I ask her as i lift my hoof to knock on the door. I hear a barely audible uhuh and I give the door a couple of sharp knocks turning my gaze to the door and waiting for an answer.

-CRASH!! BANG!! THU(THU)MP(MP)!!!-

"Spike! Are you okay?!" I hear a feminine call from inside the tree home.

"Yeah, I'm okay Twilight!" A childish yet male sounding voice called out to the first voice presumably named Twilight.

"Alright, if your okay could you get the door?" The voice I assume to be coming from a gir- er... mare named Twilight.

"Sure," the male voice said disinterestedly as the door opened. "Hello?" Standing in the open door as a baby dragon. I assume Spike would be a appropriate name for a dragon. While if I saw a dragon back at home I would have freaked out and called the pound or animal control. Now it isn't really that shocking, but what was shocking was that the door was slammed in my face. "Twilight! Nightmare Moon is out side the front door with somepony!" No sooner had I heard him shout I look back to Moon and see her sitting down looking ashamedly at the ground. It took me a few seconds but I put two and two together. This Twilight must have been one of the ponies who must bare a grudge towards her.

"Moon?" I walk over and sit next to her, "Are you okay?" I waited a few seconds and received no answer from her. I could tell she felt terrible and that only one thing could possibly take her mind off it, hugs! I mean a hug from my mom always made me feel better no matter how bad I felt, and if I think about it Moon doesn't really have anyon- er... anypony like that, because she was more created then born so she doesn't really have a mom or a dad. Taking that into account I scoot myself in front of her and gave her a hug. Compared to her large size and my rather small one my hug may be a bit less then comfortable for me but that doesn't mean it isn't comforting for Moon. "It's alright Moon, I'm sure that there was a logical explanation for what just happened and maybe if we explain we can possibly come to better terms with whoever this Twilight pony is."

I hear something blast open and I turn my head and look towards the door I had once been standing in front of blown off the hinges and a purple unicorn standing in the doorway horn lit with a purple hugh and seemed to be ready to fire a bolt from it at any sign of movement.

"Nightmare Moon! How did you survive the Elements of Harmony and why are you here?!" The purple unicorn shouted and I felt Moon clutch me tightly as the unicorn advanced closer. "Are you here to bring eternal night again or have you come for revenge?" Moon's eyes were closed tightly and she shivered slightly as if she were afraid.

"Excuse me miss..." Twilight looked at me and her horn lowered to point at us both, "What is your fucking problem!"
