Moon Jolt

A Morning Alone:

        The big city. It was almost too good to be true. Not only was I in the city of my dreams, but I was also with the girl of my dreams. Well, I soon would be again. Being an Alicorn, and a princess, Moon wouldn’t be here till later.

        We were moving together into a small apartment. I’d been dating the purple mare for a while, and was ecstatic to be taking the next step and moving into an apartment with her. She’d still be doing her royal duties but she managed to figure a way for us to still be together in Manehatten.

        I call our place an apartment but it’s more of a penthouse. I guess dating a princess has its perks. It’s pretty big but also pretty sparse at the moment. Oh well that’s a bridge Moonfall and I will cross when we get there. (Which will probably be soon)

        I guess I should introduce myself. The name’s Thunder Jolt, just call me Jolt. I’m a guitarist. That may sound odd for a pony but I’m not exactly what you’d call normal. I was born in Canterlot with very weak wings. I can’t fly for much longer than five minutes without hurting myself. My wings may be virtually useless but to compensate I have extremely strong and quick hooves; I can run a block in five seconds flat.

        As the last furniture we had ordered or brought with us was arriving, my stomach started to call for food. Seconds became minutes as I waited for the moving ponies to finish. After the 5 minutes of increasingly agonizing hell I grab my guitar and set out for the city.

        Sky scrapers shot up all around me as I walked down the streets of this grand city. Ponies where clustered on the streets, which were lined with shops and restaurants. As I was a bit low on bits I decided to have breakfast at a midtown diner.

        The bagel was delicious and the coleslaw couldn’t be finer. My mind was flooded with thoughts of Moon as I finished the scrumptious meal. I was so excited about being with her. We’re pretty madly in love. I check the clock on the diner wall. Moon will be at Quill Station in 30 minutes.

I pay for the meal and head out for the train station. My mind is flooded with images of Moonfall.
