Ah....downtown in the middle of winter.  The worst ime to be here during winter and just my luck.  I walk out of Jewel and I see the busy street with cats going up and down the street and a few hoses across it.  My dad made me go down to Jewel Osco(without arise there I might there) and now that I have his food I need a ride home.

  I pulled my phone out of my pocket and called my dad put I had no bars.  I began to walk around to see if I can get any .  Eventually it lead me to the other side of the building.  Well... what can you expect it to look like it has trash spread out and snow covers most of the ground, and there is a flipped dumbster.  Only about 15 feet away is a forest, and that's about it for all that's behind jewel.  I finally get 2 bars after walking around in acircle for a while, and call my dad.

   "Hello"

   " Hey dad it's me I need a ride home."

   "Why ?" Are you SERIOUS he asks WHY!

    " We'll one I have the groceries you told me to get, two There is a storm coming in a few hours, and uh.. oh yeah!  I have no way of getting home you sack of crap ! " I say very loudly.

   " Watch... Your... Mouth... I will be there soon.., where are you? "

   "Jewel." I say before hanging up.  My dad can go full blown retard at almost any time.  Now all I have to do is wait.

________________________________________________________________________________

Dad it has been 2 hours... WHERE ARE YOU! I say to myself.  It's freezing out here and the only thing I have on is my jacket which doesn't help much.   I sit against the brick wall and turn to my right.  The dumpster doesn't look to hard to open and I can fit in it.

Hmm...I could stick it out here, or I could hide in the dumpster to get a little bit more warm.  So dignity, or Warmth? The second I said that the weather got even colder.  Dumpster it is I guess.

The second I opened the dumpster what I saw was " interesting" .  There was a old rough sleeping bag, tons of cans that look as if they were eaten out of recently and a flashlight that hadn't been turned off.  A homeless person couldn't be living here since, the town had put up a homeless shelter.  I kneeld down to the flashlight and saw 2 photos.

I picked them up and.... yep this is the weirdest day of my life.  One of the photos had 6 multi colored pony colored things.  Who did this?  Some freak or somebody really good at photoshop.  I kept looking at the first picture.   Out of all of the pony things the blue fured rainbow haired one drew in the most attention to me.  I finally looked at the second one and this one was differen't.  Instead of 6 pony things there was only two the skittle haired pony was in this one with somebody else.  She looked way younger then her and her fur was orange.

I put the photos in my pocket, maybe one if my friends know what they are.

Before I could turn around I heared a voice.

  " WHAT ARE YOU DOING !"  I turned around and saw it.  The blue fur colored pony with a rainbow mane was behind me.

I couldn't comprehend it she was real and coverd in dirt.

   " WE'LL! " she shouted.

   " Your.... real." I said,  well what could I say I was trying to grasp the fact that she was even real.

She walked right pass me in anger and shouted again.

   "Where are the photos!"

   "Wh..at" I responded before she punches me outside of the dumpster.  Wait.... HOW DOES SHE EVEN DO THAT!

  I heard her say

  " I will give you one last chance... give me the photos."

Like a idiot from a horror movie I ran into the woods with her giving chaise.  I wasn't going to give her the photos.  After I saw her and demanding them back, I wanted to know what was going on.  Maybe I one of my friends know anything about this.   I ran through the snow coverd woods, running through branches. Finally I triped and I heard coming for me but from where ?

RING RING

What my phone now what !

"YEAH WHAT!" I shouted in my fear.

"Hey Xaiver we... We have a problem"

" You don't know the half of it !" I shouted back and I then hung up on whoever was calling.

I then saw that pony behind me with a furious face.

" GIVE ME THE PHOTOS !" She said.

"I will... BUT I want you to tell me about everything !" I demanded

"About what !"

" How you got here and who you are, and who these things are."

"I'm not going to tell you anything." She responded. Now what, the only option I have is getting the crap beaten out of... WAIT.

I pulled out the picture of her wither the 5 other ponies.

"Tell me about what I want to know. Now !" I then ripped it up and let the scraps fly away. I looked at her eyes and they went wide from anger and saddens.

" Do it now before I ripped the other one up."

"...." She didn't say a thing.

I then slightly ripped the other photo.

" FINE JUST STOP!"

That's what did I stopped, and I waited for her to speak.

" Those THINGS are my friends."  After she said so I then asked her.

"What's your name ?"

" Rainbow Dash."  Wait.... her name is Rainbow Dash?  Well I couldn't be surprised I mean she looks like a cartoon pony and can TALK after all.

" Why do these pictures even mater so much to you ?"

She gave me a "are you kidding me " look.

" Do you SEE where I even am !  Last ime I checked there aren't many ponies looking like ME last time I checked !

"So you want to find your friends ?"

" What do you think !" Yeah I'm a bit stupid.

" Is that orange pony here, the one with the purple hair ?" I was curious I got the feeling she was a tomboy.

" No Thank Celestia." For some reason that I can't explain, I think I actually cared about her.

" Who is she ?"

" Why do you care !  All I know is she isn't here !"

" She's your sister isn't she ."  I expected a response but she didn't say a thing

" The pictures matter so much to you since your afraid you might not see them again."  I said finally figuring out why she wanted them so much.  Still she remaind quiet.  Finally I asked my final question

" How did you get here ?"

"....I don't know ."

"What do you mean ?"

" I don't know how I got here."  I was shocked.... and mad I wanted answeres.

"You must remember something !"  I shouted.

" We'll I do remember something."

" What is it!"

" I remover I was with my friends Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack, we were tuning from some pony."   Really "some pony".

" Untill I got here, and I was seperated from my friends.  I don't even know if they are where I am."

I was feeling simpithetic and I finally built up the energy to say.

" Look... I can try to help you find your friends."  I didn't know what to expect until she spoke

" Are you serious !  First you tear up a photo of my friends, force me to tell you about them why should I let some....one like you try and help me !"  I noticed she said somebody instead of some pony .

"  We'll look at yourself your coverd in mud,hungry, and it's winter you'll die before you find them."  I said.  I don't know why I wanted to help her, maybe it was so I would never have to see her again.

"Fine... But if you try anything, and I mean anything to me or my friends I will destroy you understand ?!"  She could and I mean it, after all she hit me so hard I flew out of the dumpster.

" Ok, follow me we need to head to my house."  By now my dad problebly just left the house NOW to pick me up meaning that I still had time to get her home.

We had been walking down the road to my house.  When I decided it was best to ask her one more question.

" I'm pretty sure you know that you can't be seen from people like me.  She nodded.

" Also you can't fly ."  That set her in a fit of anger.

" WHY NOT!"

"We'll do you want to be seen ?"  That made her stop.  Soon we finally reached my house and we went inside.

Soon I noticed my phone was ringing .  I picked it up and noticed it was my friend Winter calling me.

" Listen Xaiver I need to come over."  I was suprised she said fast and she sounded nervous.

" But why do you.." I was cut off by a voice from somebody that sounded like they had to much coffe.

" Ohhhb who are you calling NO wait let me guess! It's Ni.."  I then heard a large beep she had hanged up.  Rainbow noticed and said

" What's happening ?"

" We'll apparently Winter's coming over."

"Who's that ?"
