Amnesia: Daniel's adventure in Equestria

The faceless creture walked through the woods, blood dripping out of the open wound. Rusty metal creaked every time it took a step, and it's growls, and moans echoed through the forest.

Daring do smiled, it was nice having other ponies write stories about her adventures. Most ponies thought Daring do was a fictional character, but all of the things in the books, she, at one point in her life, had actually done.

She was trotting along a trail in the Everfree Forest, humming quietly. She trotted down this trail every morning, from her treehouse in the center of the forest, all the way to the edge of the forest, around ponyville.

Most ponies were afraid of the forest, but Daring do wasn't. Ponies were afraid of the forest because it wasn't normal, but to Daring do, it was her home. When Daring first moved into the Everfree to start being an adventurer, she was afraid, but she would never admit it in one of her books. After a while, she learned that there wasn't a reason to be afraid of Everfree, it was just a little abnormal... And dangerous.

Daring's thoughts were interrupted by a loud gurgling moan. She stopped moving, and quickly twisted her head around in all directions. "Who's there?!" She shouted. (BIG FREAKING MISTAKE!)

Daniel slowly opened his eyes. He groaned, and put his hoof up to his eye rub the sleepyness out of his eyes. He gasped when he saw that he didn't have a hand. He was about to scream when the memory of the past couple days flushed into his mind. Everything. Brennenburg, Alexander, the gatherers, and the six colorful ponies.

Daniel took a look around. He was lying on a bed, in a small room with light shining through the window, the sound of birds chirping, and other animal sounds was higher than usuall. The walls were made of wood, and there was a dark green carpet covering the floor, overall the room seemed very comfortable. Though it was nothing compared to the guest room at Brennenburg.

"Oh, He's awake everypony!"  A deep southern american accent came from the doorway of the small room that he was in. Slowly, one by one, the six ponies from before trotted into the room. Daniel stared at the colorful ponies. They all looked at each other, and then one of them, the purple one with a horn, trotted up to Daniel.

Daniel stared at the purple pony. "Please don't hurt me." He said, his voice cracking.

The pony chuckled awkwardly. "Don't worry, none of my friends, or I will ever cause harm to you." She said in a motherly tone. She smiled, and waited for Daniel to say anything. Daniel mouth curved into a small frown, and he cautiously looked at the group of ponies. He turned his head back to the purple unicorn.

"I expect you all have names?" His small frown turned into a nervous smile, and he jumped off the bed, and on to all four of his hooves. The mares giggled, and one by one announced their names.

"Mah name is AppleJack partner!" The one with the southern american accent said, when Daniel looked over too her. Daniel looked over to the next one over.

"My name's Rainbow Dash! The fastest pony in Equestria, try not to faint from fanboyiness!" (is that even a word? Probably not!)

Daniel smirked, and said, "Never heard of ya'."  Rainbow Dash scoffed, and frowned at Daniel.

"you haven't? Seriously!?" She stopped hovering, and she dropped to the ground. Daniel turned to the next pony, and before he could say anything, she started assaulting him with a barage of words.

"Hi my name is Pinkie Pie, I work at the bakery in the middle of town, and I live there too. When I was a filly, I lived with my family somewhere around appleossa, I can't remember exactly where. We got bits by mining rocks, and I'm going to throw you the best 'welcome to Ponyville' party you will ever have in your life!"

"Ok!" Daniel matched the speed, and volume of her voice. Then he turned to the purple pony.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle, I'm the librarian at the library in Ponyville." She said simpley. Daniel smiled, genuinely.

"You're a librarian? I worked as a librarian so I could afford college, back when I was young." Daniel said happily.

"Aren't you young, still?" AppleJack asked.

"Well... Yes, but I'm 29, I got out of college, when I was only 22."  Daniel replied, and he turned to the white pony, who had a curly purple mane.

"My name's Rarity, and I must say that you'd look great in the color black." She said, admiring Daniel. Daniel laughed nervously.

"Uhh... Thanks?" He said uncertainly, and then he looked around.

"Wasnt there another one of you?"  He asked, remembering a yellow pony, with a pink mane.

"Yes, there was..." Twilight said, and she looked around. "Fluttershy, come in here!" She yelled.

"N-no Twilight, I'm fine in here" A sweet, kind, and quiet voice came from the room next to the one they were all standing in.

"Oh c'mon fluttershy! He's nice... Like you!" Pinkie Pie said quickly. There was a quiet sigh from the next room, and slowly, a pink maned, butterscotch colored, pegasus.

"H-hello..." She said quietly.

"Hi, my name's Daniel." Daniel said soothingly.

"My name is Fluttershy." She said so quiet that it looked like the other ponies didn't hear her, but Daniel did.

"What's you're job around here, Fluttershy?" Daniel asked. He heard the five other ponies in the room gasp.

"Dude, how'd you hear her name?" Rainbow Dash asked, amazed. The other mares nodded.

"My hearing has gotten better since the accident, it's saved my life a few times." Daniel answered.

"Oh... Wait, what accident?" Twilight asked, curiously.

"It's nothing, I don't want you to be sympathetic towards me."  Daniel answered sadly.

"Well... Ok...," Twilight answered slowly. "but if you need a friend to talk to just ask one of us."

"Ok." Daniel nodded, and smiled. All of the ponies started trotting out of the room, except Twilight, and AppleJack.

"Daniel, you should go back to bed. You had a really bad fever when you passed out earlier." Twilight said, and then she left the room. AppleJack waited for Twilight to leave the room to turn to Daniel, and start talking.

"Hey parter?" AppleJack asked.

"Yes, AppleJack?" said Daniel.

"You best be careful around the mares here." AppleJack warned.

"Why?" Daniel asked,  a little scared.

"Because you're one of the two stallions around here who're still single, 'n the other one's mah brother, and he works a too much for any mares to talk to him, so the mares around here will be on you like fleas on a diamond dog." AppleJack said in a whisper.

"O-Okay..." Daniel said, staring at AppleJack.

"Expecialy Rainbow Dash. She's getting pretty desprate, since her last stallionfriend broke up with her." AppleJack finished, and she walked out of the room. Daniel gulped, and walked out behind her.
