RPG A Really Pony Game

Chapter 5

“Nothing eventful happens along the road before you reach Ponyville. Once you get there, there is a guard in front of you. Obviously, he is guarding the way to town, but why would he need to?” Crystal says.

“Hello sir!” Lightning says, happily.

“Halt. Might I ask, why are you carrying an unconscious pony?” The guard is very skeptical.

“Oh, she is my friend and she was injected with some strange sort of venom or something,” Lightning explains, in short.

“And how do you expect me to believe that?” The guard says, agitated.

“Behind the guard, a yellow pony with a pink mane and butterflies as her cutie mark stops and notices you,” Crystal explains.

“Oh, um, Mr. Guard, I know those two ponies. They live next to me. Oh my! What’s wrong with Crystal!” The yellow pony says.

“Fluttershy! Am I glad to see you! Crystal has been injected with venom or something,” Lightning explains.

“So you know these ponies?” The guard asks Fluttershy.

“Oh yes. They live a little ways down the road from me. Now, if you could let them through please, Crystal needs a hospital! So can you let them through, um, please?” Fluttershy says shyly.

“Fine,” The guard begrudgingly moves.

“You an Fluttershy rush toward the Ponyville Hospital with Crystal Flower slung on your back,” Crystal says.

“Crystal seems to have put on some weight!” Lightning says jokingly.

“Hey!” Crystal exclaims.

‘What?” Lightning asks.

“Just because it’s a game doesn’t mean you get to call me fat!”

“You know what, just for that, I’m going to call you fat more often!”

“Uhg, whatever. So you and Fluttershy make it to the hospital,” Crystal explains.

“Doctors! This pony has been injected with something!” Lightning yells.

All the doctors rush in different directions until one goes to Lightning and scoops Crystal onto a rolling bed and says “Come back in about a week!” And then he rushes down some halls.

“One week, huh. I guess I should go to the library now,” Lightning decides.

“Oh, yes. I need to go back and look for my poor Angel! She has been missing for weeks…” Fluttershy says sadly.

Lightning realizes how the dead bunny in the woods may not be the best thing to bring up right now. “Well, my best wishes!” Lightning says before heading to the library.

“You walk into the tree that is the library. The pony you assume is the librarian is scanning a shelf looking for a book when you walk in. She turns around and introduces herself,” Crystal explains.

“Hello there! I’m Twighlight Sparkle. Is there anything I can help you with?” Twighlight asks.

“Yes, I, ummm…. Crystal, I can’t remember what Scar Stride told me to do,” Lightning confesses.

“You should have written it down. Now get back to the game!” Crystal says.

“Fine. I would like to check out a book on… uhh… oh yah! That’s it! I need a book on Dragon Origins and a book on poison!” Lightning declares triumphantly.

“All of a sudden, you drop to your knees and slowly begin to slip out of consciousness. Your brain registers that you were just hit in the back of the head with something before you finally pass out,” Crystal explains.

“Yay, I fell asleep!” Lightning cheers. Lightning’s head falls to the table as he pretends to fall asleep.

“Lightning-“ Crystal says but doesn’t finish.

“Hm? What was that Crystal?” Lightning asks. He lifts up his head and realizes Crystal Flower is no longer there. All of a sudden he feels a sharp pain in the back of his head.

He falls asleep. Well, actually, he wakes up.
