I hate this place I thought as I walked through the streets of Canterlot. Maybe I should go to that town...Ponyville,,,,Sounds like a nice place....Alright! I'm going to Ponyville!

No you're not. This is your home. Not some dirt town.

    "I don't want to deal with you right now so go away."

Oh, but I can't go away. For I. Am you.

    "Stop your damn nonsense! I'm not listening anymore.!"

You can't ignore m-

    "Lalalallalalala!" Okay...where's the train station? I wandered around aimlessly for a few minutes, having ponies threaten me just because I looked different. Damn Canterlot assholes.Oh! There it is! I flew over to the train looking for any place I could hide on the ride. Luckily, I found a small (I don't know what it's called. It's that thing in the train where Ditzy is in the opening theme.). I flew up to it, and found another pony there.

    "Hiya!" She said. I looked her over. Finding a scar on her head. She had a wall eyed stare, a seemingly innocent smile, and brilliant golden eyes.

    "H-hi."

    "What's you name?" I looked down, remembering I don't have a name.

    "I...I don't know...." A few moments passed, which felt like hours.

    "WHAAAAA?" Her neck stretched back to what seemed an impossible length.

    "H-how are you doing that?" Her head slowly came back to it's right spot, but in a way that sent shivers down my spine. She must be one of those ponies. The ones who can break the laws of physics...Strange ones they are.

    "How can you not know your own name?" It seems my question went unheard.

    "I...I don't want to talk about it." A long silence passed before I spoke up again. "May I know your name?"

    "Ditzy! Ditzy Doo! The best mail carrier in Ponyville. Though ponies would say otherwise."

    Wait...Ponyville? "Do you live in Ponyville?"

    "Yes I do!"

    "What's it like?" She took a second to think.

    "It's...Nice. A lot nicer then these big city places. The ponies are nice, everyone actually cares for one another, and...It just feels more like home then any other place you'll ever visit." Knowing this I smiled. The place was as nice as it sounded. I closed my eyes. I wonder what waits for me in Ponyville.

    "Hey. Wake up. We're here." I felt myself being shooken softly.

    "Uuuh...Wha?" I slowly opened my eyes, and saw that gray mare from before.

    "We're here!"

    "Huh!?" I immediately sat up and looked out. "So this is Ponyville?"

    "Yup~! Now come on! We need to get off before the train takes off again!"

    "Oh...Yeah." I got up and flew out with this golden eyed Pegasus.

    "This is your first time here right?" I nodded. "I should show you around!" Hm...I should...

NO! She's a threat! She could take you down right now!

    "Ugh! I thought you stopped back at Canterlot! Just shut up!"

    "Wh-wha?" I turned and realized that it seemed like I was talking to her.

    "Oh! Nononononno. I wasn't talking to you." Ditzy cocked her head.

    "What do you mean? There's no other pony around."

    "I...I know....It's just...Nothing....So can you show me around?" Ditzy brightened up at this.

    "Yeah! Come on!" She took my hoof and ran off, dragging me behind. "First I'll show you The Library." They have a library? YEEEEEEES! She took me to a building that was...A...Tree....

    "Um...Ditzy?"

    "Yeah?"

    "Why is...The library a tree?"

    Ditzy giggled. "It's just a building style around here. Not a lot of ponies like it though. Only The library, Zecoras' hut, and Fluttershys' cottage are trees." I sat there....Trying to understand that, but my thoughts were quickly interrupted by the blond pony dragging me off once again.

    This time we were infront of a....I don't quite know. I saw dresses through the window so I guessed it had to do with fashion or something, I never really understood fashion. "This is Raritys' Carousel Boutique! Home to Ponyvilles Rarity! She's one of the Eements of Harmony ya know?"

    "The elements of what?" Of course, never having access to the news in any way, I don't know about those famous ponies.

    "You don't know the Elements of Harmony?!"

    "...No..."

    Ditzy shook her head. "You don't get out much do you?"

    "I'm actually always out..." Ditzy took a look of suspicion.

    "Well...You can ask about them in the library. I'm not the best story telling pony. I always get off topic." That scar...I really wonder if it has anything to do with her eyes

    "May I ask about that scar on your head?" Ditzy looked down.

    "Nothing." That's all she said before she flew off.

    "W-Wait!" She didn't stop for me though. She just kept flying. I knew I shouldn't have asked.

    I looked around...And realized I have no idea where I am. I sighed. I guess I have to ask the pony in here for directions.Hmmm...Raritys' Carousel Boutique. Sounds interesting. I thought as I walked up to the door of the store. I knocked, three times to be exact, and heard some rustling from inside. The door swung open to reveal a white Unicorn with a purple mane. "Hello! Please come in." I walked in.

    "Um...Do you know how to get to the library from here?"

    "Why yes darling." She gave me the directions and I thanked her. As I reached the library I saw a small dragon.Oh no oh no nononononononononoOooooo! I started to back away some, in fear that he would burn me if I got to close. I saw a purple Unicorn talking to him. IS SHE CRAZY? I knew I had to do something! Or she would get hurt!

    "H-hey!" she looked over at me.

    "Yes?" I immediately shut up...I don't know why but I couldn't speak. Since I couldn't talk, I pointed at the dragon. She laughed.

"Don't worry! He won't hurt you!" I started to wonder if this pony was a lunatic. That's when she told him to introduce myself. He started walking over to me. I freaked out...My vision started fading black. Then...I passed out.
