Issac stumbled through the bushes and looked around quickly. No sirens, no royal guards, no anything. Just blissful silence. Issac didn't trust it, he didn't trust anything honestly. There was always a trap, always something that was ready to jump out and betray him and his trust. As his heart rate slowed, Issac took in his settings. He saw the four snow covered hills he just climbed over and a small town that was a good 3 miles away. He looked at Celestia's sun, which was now setting, and sighed.
"Great. I'm hungry, thirsty, tired, lonely, and now stuck in the of nowhere. What else?" He muttered to himself and sat down as he took out his backpack, digging around inside of it for his map of Equestria. Once he pulled it out of the messy, betraying backpack he let out a sigh and unfolded it. While trying to find out where the hay he was, he herd a voice sound out and pierce the silence.
"Uh, can I help you?" Issac looked around to see who had said that, but there was no pony around.
"You're going crazy Issac. First you're talking to yourself, and now your imagining other ponies talking to you." He chuckled as he went back to looking at his map. He didn't even noticed the Cyan colored pegasus with a rainbow mane that had landed in front of him.
"Uh ,Mr. stallion guy, you're kinda sitting in the middle of my yard..." The pegasus said as Issac looked up from his map and jumped back, not excepting the voice he heard to actually belong to some pony.
"Oh, sorry. I just have no idea where the hay I am... Could you happen to tell me what town this is?" Issac asked folding his map and getting up as the mare gave him a questioning look.
"This is Ponyville... I'm Rainbow Dash by the way. Who are you?" Rainbow Dash asked curiously studying him as he put his map in his backpack.
"I'm Issac. Do you know where the nearest hotel is Rainbow Dash?" Issac asked trying to stay calm hoping Rainbow Dash didn't recognize his name. Inside he was freaking out, Rainbow Dash was one of the Elements Of Harmony, that means she talks to Twilight Sparkle, who was Princess Celestia's student. He cursed at himself for not recognizing her. After all, she was very well-known throughout Canterlot anyways. Every filly and colt knew her face, and wanted to be just like the fast, cool, Hero of loyalty. I mean, who wouldn't?
"Ponyville doesn't have a hotel, but you can stay over at my place for the night." Rainbow Dash smiled at Issac as he sighed in relief inside.
"Well that solves my sleeping problems. Thank you." Issac smiled and followed the mare.
"She doesn't know who I am! Thank Celestia!" Issac thought as he looked around.
"So, where's your house?" Issac asked as Rainbow Dashes face grew out in a laughing grin as she paused and pointed towards the sky.
"You didn't notice the giant shadow or my mailbox?" Rainbow Dash grinned as Issac looked up to see a giant cloud house 3 sizes bigger than the house he had in Canterlot.
"O-oh.. Well... I was preoccupied with figuring out where I was..." Issac stammered as he spread his wings and took off after Rainbow Dash. When he entered the door, he was expecting to see big rooms with tall ceilings decked out with marvelous cloud sculptures, clouds fountains, and all sorts of things that would have reminded him of something that Greek or Roman ponies would have. But, instead, he entered to a medium sized living room with a large television, with a cloud couch, two cloud chairs, and a coffee table in the center. "Whoa..." Issac said and trotted a little further. Rainbow Dash peered over at him and smiled taking pride in her house.
"This is just one room, there are plenty more just like it. Come on, I'll give you a tour." Rainbow Dash trotted on with Issac followed behind curiously. Every turn brought something new, one moment it would be a huge liquid rainbow fountain and the next it would be a gaming room. By the time they were finished touring the house, Luna's moon has high in the sky.
"Wow Rainbow! This house it amazing!" Issac said still amazed. Rainbow Dash just held her chin up a little.
"First cloud house in Ponyville. All the other pegasi have homes on the ground, but I'm just too awesome for a grounded home." Rainbow gloated and yawned.
"Well, I better hit the hay, I have cloud busting tomorrow. Feel free to leave at any time tomorrow, just leave a note before you leave, so I know your gone. Your room is the 4th to the left upstairs." Rainbow Dash told him before trotting off to a room with large doors. As Issac trotted up the stairs and into his bedroom he couldn't help but feel lucky. He was in Rainbow Dash's cloud home. The element of loyalty's sky scraping cloud home. He defiantly felt lucky, and nervous. He had no idea where he was going to go. The town closest to Ponyville was Canterlot, and there was no way in all of Equestria was he going back there. Not with his face sketched into every ponies face. As Issac flopped down onto the bed, he stared up at the ceiling and sighed.
"Maybe Dash will let me stay here for awhile. I mean, she seemed cool about letting me spend the night today, maybe I could just say I can't remember anything about where I'm from and stuff. She'll feel sympathy and let me stay here till I get my own house." Issac thought aloud as he rolled over onto his belly and attempted to sleep with little success.
Three weeks after Issac came to Ponyville
"ISSAC GET YOUR LAZY FLANK UP BEFORE I BUCK THIS DOOR RIGHT OFF IT'S HINGES!" Rainbow Dash shouted furiously from the other side of the door. Issac yawned and rolled over in bed, only to roll off the bed and greet the floor face first. The sleepy stallion lifted his head tiredly and finally came to his senses that some pony was banging like a mad mare on the door. He quickly jumped up and unlocked the door, only to be greeted by Rainbow Dash throwing it the rest of the way open and come flying in there. Issac blinked as he looked at the mare, you could literally see the magenta ring around her pupil boil in anger, and her hair looked as if it was about to go up in multicolored flames.
"It's 7:30 Issac! I'v been trying to get you up for hours! Why in the name of Celestia did you lock the door AGAIN AFTER I told you NOT to lock the door because I DO NOT have keys to this door and just by banging on the door and screaming apparently isn't enough to wake you up! You better hope and pray this house doesn't come crashing down in the middle of the night because Celestia help us all you'd go down with it and wouldn't even wake up!" Rainbow Dash raged at Issac as he yawned and started to make the bed, hiding his smile. He listened to Dash started to rant about how the door was not allowed to be locked and if he DID lock it again, she would buck the cloud door right off of it's cloud hinges.
"Ok Dash, I understand. I won't let it happen again." Issac told Rainbow as he paced over to his nightstand and picked up his flying goggles. Trotting back over to Dash, he moved the angry mare aside so he could get to the mirror. As he put the goggles on he stared at himself. His mane didn't look like how it used to be. He used to have these low bangs before he met Rainbow Dash, but because he knew he'd have to meet Twilight Sparkle sooner or later, he started to push his goggles up on his head more so the his bangs shot back. He also started to wear the hoodie his parents gave him before they died more often, hoping it would cover up his cutie mark to a slight degree. As he stared more into the mirror, he realized how much he looked like his old friend Time turner with his goggles and mane like that
"Well we better get going, and on the way you can think of an excuse on why we're so late." Rainbow Dash said snapping Issac back into reality as she bit down on his tail and dragged Issac out of the house.
~~~
When they came to the library Issac had gone up to the door to knock but was rudely pushed aside by a still angry Rainbow Dash who just simply walked right in.
"Well that's wonderful Rainbow No-manners Dash, just walk right in like you own the place." Issac smirked as Rainbow Dash glared at him slightly. Issac followed behind Dash into the library with 5 other ponies in it.
"Sorry I'm late guys, this lazy pony right here WOULDN'T wake up. I hope you don't mind I brought him along." Rainbow Dash said as the group of mares turned to Issac and her.
"We don' mind Sugarcube, Ah'v been wantin' to meet this here fella since ya started talkin' 'bout him anyways." Applejack spoke up first as the others smiled and nodded. Applejack trotted up to Issac and held out her hoof politely as Issac went to shake it, not realizing the mares strength as she shook him around. Carefully pulling his hoof away, Issac smiled weakly trying to hide the pain that shot through his hoof.
"N-nice to meet you too. I'm Issac if you didn't know." He said as the others smiled and went around and introduced themselves. As Issac chatted with the other ponies he noticed that Twilight Sparkle was staring at him. his ears pulled back a little as he walked over to greet her. But before he could say anything, Twilight pointed something out.
"You look oddly familiar, like I'v seen you somewhere before. You said your name was Issac correct? May I please take a look at your cutie mark?" The Princess had started to ask him random questions and the others stared at Twilight oddly. Rainbow Dash quickly came to his side.
"Whoa whoa whoa Twi, what's with all the questions?" Rainbow Dash asked curiously as Twilight scanned the shelves and picked out a book with a black laced cover.
"Ah-ha! I knew I recolonized him from somewhere!" twilight shouted catching every ponies attention once again and pointed to a picture.
"He reminded me of Time Turner, a famous adventurer who was the partners with this fearless, brave stallion named Issac Hoofinling. Issac Hoofinling could put Daring Do to shame Dash. Too bad all three of them are fictional... Well... All two anyways...." Twilight said as Rainbow grew more and more confused.
"Huh..?" Every pony said at the same time as Twilight rolled her eyes.
"Issac happened to be the writer of the stories, and also happened to be a master thief. He had tried to steal from the royal castle one night and he now has his face plastered all over Equestria." Twilight explained as everyone seemed to be less confused. Issac took a deep breath and tried to make something up.
"Well I hope they find that Issac guy... Hmm, look at the time... We better get going Dash if we want to make it home before dark!" Issac said heading for the door as Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes and snickered.
"Well, looks like some stallions afraid of the dark. I'll see you guys later!" Rainbow Dash called out to her friends as she and Issac took off into the night. As they slowly made there way back to Rainbows. Issac decided to do something stupid.
"Hey Rainbow..."
"Yes?"
"I need to talk to you about something..."
To Be Continued...!
