Have you ever wanted to go on an adventure? Well me and my friend have and it was amazing this is how our journey began. My name is Daniel White I am 25 years old I live in Chicago Illinois. My Hobbes are playing video games, practicing marshal arts and watching My little Pony Friendship is Magic. My friend Tim and I are big fans of the show. We were having our weekly visit at his house and as we were coming back from a small trip for food we looked up at the sky and saw what looked like the Northern Lights. I got this really uneasy feeling about the strange phenomenon but before I could say anything I felt myself getting sucked up into the event horizon and pulled into a vortex.
Moments later I was thrown out of the vortex and hit the ground hard enough that I fell unconscious. I woke up an hour later with some pain but no real injuries.
“Where am I?” As I looked around I saw a large castle built on a side of a mountain “Wait I recognized that castle that's Canterlot than that means I’m in Equestria!” Than I noticed that Tim was not with me.
“Where is Tim.” I started to look but when I tried to walk I fell on my face. I looked down to see why I fell and saw that I had hooves instead of hands and feet. “I'm a pony but what kind?” That’s when I saw a river so I stumbled over to it to see what I looked like.
I looked at my reflection and saw that I was a child sized unicorn with dark blue fur, dark purple mane and tail with teal colored highlight tips and a light purple firework as my cutie mark. I decided to learn how to walk before I looked for Tim which took two hours. After that I thought that the best way to find my friend was to get to Ponyville. As I walked in the direction of Canterlot witch would lead me to Ponyville I came up with a name for myself it would be Dusk Flair. I walked until it was dark by than it was cold out cause it was the fall season so I decided to stay up all night practicing my special talent. As the fireworks continued into the night I had a special audience watching my performance. In Canterlot Princess Luna was on the balcony enjoying her night sky when she spotted my firework display she was amazed by it so much that she watch all night.
The next morning I continued my journey towards Ponyville while thinking on how I’m going to find my lost friend. I walked until I came upon a farm and orchard of apple trees which I assumed to be Sweet Apple Acres. I decided that I will ask the residents if I can stay the night. So I walked to the door of the house and knocked three times than waited for somepony to answer. A few minutes later Applejack opened that door and spoke
“Howdy there sugar cube can I help you?” I was super hyped to see Applejack in all her glory but I had to stay cool as to not freak her out “Hello my name is Dusk Flare and I was wondering if I could stay the night so that I don’t have to sleep outside?” Applejack just stared at me for a few seconds than answered “Of course you can sugar cube but why are ya staying outside by yourself for?” As I came inside to explain I saw her stair at me awkwardly for a moment before regaining her composure. “Something on your mind miss?” she stared blankly for a moment before answering “What no nothing the matter here and please call me Applejack.” After I explained that I was travailing with a friend when a large flash of light hit us and when I woke up I was separated from him.
After explaining to Applejack about my situation she had to help me up the stairs to the guest bedroom because I was exhausted from staying up two nights in a row. I had a hard time getting to sleep despite my exhausting because I was worried about Tim. In the morning I got up and Applejack made apple waffles which were really good. After breakfast She asked me where I was heading to when I was separated from Tim and I told her that we were heading to Ponyville. She showed me the way to Ponyville but when we got to the town I was assaulted by a pink pony asking a million questions all at once I know I would half to deal with her eventually my favorite pony Pinkie pie. As she was talking, a thought popped into my mind,
'I hope Tim is okay and doing better than I am right now.'
Introduction Part 2
My name is Tim Mendoza, I have many likes and loves on this Earth. One of those loves in for a show called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. MY friend Dan and I both love the show and are both avid fans. We were having our bi-weekly visit at my house and coming back from a minor trip to get some food. All of a sudden, I looked up and in the sky was what looked like the Northern Lights. The only problem was, Danny and I were the only ones who could see it.
I felt myself getting sucked into the event horizon and being pulled along. I then hit the ground with a large thud. I felt like hell but other than that, I felt fine. I then noticed that I was not around my house. I was somewhere else. I looked around and saw a very familiar cottage and forest nearby. It was then that it hit me where I was. I was in Equestia. I looked around and saw a very familiar forest and cottage on all sides. I knew where I was and in what location I was in, the big questions that ran thru my mind were, ‘what is she going to do and say and what exactly I look like?’
“Hello is somepony there?” a timid voice cut thru my thoughts. I turned around and saw her. I saw the keeper of the Element of Kindness, Fluttershy. She looked at me and instantly blushed and hid behind her mane. I could not help but smile at her shyness.
“Hi there, it’s nice to meet you. My name is Shadow Strike, what’s yours?” I asked her. As she continued to blush I was able to catch her name, albeit she said very quietly. “Hi Fluttershy, it’s nice to meet you.” I said in a nice tone. I looked around and saw a bunch on animals coming near. This seemed to make Fluttershy open up.
“Wow, they really seem to like you Shadow. My animals usually don’t act this way around strangers. This is really exciting.” She said with a smile on her face. I smiled as well as a few animals came around me. It made me smile that I could be this at peace. As Fluttershy and I talked about animals we both heard an all to familiar cheering and whooping. Fluttershy looked down and seemed to be a bit down.
“What’s wrong Fluttershy?” I asked. She looked up and told me that she forgot that Dash was coming over for a visit. I laughed a bit and told her not to worry. “I am new here, so it will be nice to meet more ponies.”
As soon as I said that statement, Rainbow Dash landed right next to Fluttershy with a rainbow trail behind her, spooking all of the animals that were around us. She looked at Fluttershy then looked at me.
“Hey Fluttershy, who’s the new pony?” she asked looking me over. Poking my Cutie Mark and playing with my wings. I looked at her and tried to stand up, only fall over. She looked at my attempt and laughed so hard she fell over. I looked at her and snorted.
“It’s not funny Dash. I only just fell about ten minutes ago and it still hurts to walk or fly. It’s going to take some time to get my bearings.” I yelled at her. She looked back and blushed. She was taken aback by what I said.
“I’m sorry; I tend to talk before my brain kicks in. I did not catch your name though.” She said sheepishly. “How did you fall anyway? You look like a full grown colt with more than enough flight time.” She asked me just as a bolt of lightning hit me. It did not hurt, it actually felt really good. Both Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash looked at me in both shock and amazement. I looked at them and grinned sheepishly, “I am sorry for that. It comes with me being able to control lightning. I sometimes act like a lightning rod.”
Fluttershy was still in shock but Dash uttered a single phrase. “So awesome.” I look at her and Fluttershy and just smile.
“Sorry if I spooked the two of you, I can control lightning and sometimes I randomly get struck. It's no big deal.” I said brushing myself off. Fluttershy was able to regain herself and Rainbow Dash was still awestruck. It was then I heard the sound of two sets of hooves coming up the hill where we were.
“Oh my gosh, is everypony okay? I hope no one is hurt.” a regal voice came from the bottom of the hill. “I'm sure everypony is fine Rarity. It was probably Rainbow Dash showing off again.”
As the other two mare came up the hill, they were greeted by a rather odd sight. A dark purple Pegasus with black mane and tail, with steel blue eyes and a lightning bolt cutie mark sitting with Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. I looked at the two of them and smiled. “It's okay girls. It was only me. I seen to draw lightning like a lightning rod.” I grinned sheepishly. Rarity took one look at me and dashed over to me, fawning over my tail. Twilight looked at me like a grew an extra head. “You got hit by lightning. Are you sure you're okay?”
“Yeah, I'll be fine. Though something has be troubled, now that I think about it. Did you see anypony else with me when you found me Fluttershy?” She shook her head as saying no.
'Damn, where is he?' I looked up to the sky. 'Danny, I hope your doing ok. Be safe my friend, as soon as I can fly, I am gonna find you.'
Rainbow Dash came up to me and wrapped her hoof around me. “Don’t worry Shadow, I'll get you flying in no time flat.” I smiled at Dash's optimism.
Over the course of the next three days, with help from Twilight and Rarity, I was able to get walking down. With Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, well, mostly Dash, I was flying around in no time. Soon enough I was on par with Dash in the speed category. I was having the time of my life in the sky. As I flew along, I saw two ponies in Ponyville. One of course was Pinkie Pie, the other one I did not recognize at first. I hovered for a minute and looked him over and in that second I knew who it was. It was my friend Danny. He had found his way to Ponyville at long last.
