I don’t know if I ought to be scared or laughing hysterically, because I had a rather interesting encounter with Twilight Sparkle today.
She approached me after I had walked into town to find a meal that I could get for cheap.
“What the hay!” She said, storming up to me.
“What do you need?”
“That entry you wrote yesterday!”
“What about it..wait have you…”
“That was so anticlimactic, after everything that had happened the day before!”
“Have you been reading my diary?”
“Uhh.” She said, backing away slowly.
“Why the fuck have you been reading my god damn diary.”
My face grew angry, as Twilight blushed, clearly embarrassed.
“I’m kinda paranoid, and I wanted to make sure you weren’t planning anything, and well...you also aren’t the worst writer I’ve ever seen, why do you write diary entries like that anyway?”
“Well, I just enjoy writing I guess...wait a minute don’t change the topic!”
She took another step back.
“I’m sorry, I’ll stop. You don’t want to do anything malicious do you?”
“I have very few friends in this world, I have one place that I can sleep and not have to worry about being imprisoned, now explain to me why I would throw that away for any reason?”
“Good point.” She replied before retreating at great speeds.
Thankfully that wasn’t my full day though, as I did get a bit closer to those gemstones that will give me what I seek. Honestly I was surprised she didn’t bring anything up about the stones that I talked about in an earlier entry.
After that incident, my day actually went pretty smoothly. I went over to this wonderful place where I could get something that I never thought I would ever find again. Something that I thought I had lost when I was transported to this world. It was good vietnamese food. I can’t remember what they called it, but it was amazing. It was a noodle salad, with rice noodles, cucumber, onion, and some other vegetables. Also, as no restaurant in this place serves meat, they had some strange tofu thing that was actually really good. Bacon is still better though, better by a long shot.
I actually ended up meeting Rarity in this place, and I’m not going to lie I was surprised to see her here. She seemed like the type to keep to more traditional restaurants and not cafe’s like this. She approached me with a look of surprise that I was eating that dish, I suppose it wasn’t very popular. Come to think of it, I don’t think this place is very popular in general. There was a single chef and two waiters, which is par for the course in a cafe, but I was the only other person in this place other than the staff. It wasn’t even that early either, if I remember correctly it was about noon by the time I walked in. I have no idea why ponies don’t eat here. It’s got great food, friendly staff, and isn’t that expensive.
Oh yes, but Rarity did walk in, and upon seeing me she sat down at my table, and started looking through their menu.
“Rarity?” I asked, not believing that she would have walked into a place like that, she just seemed to be too prim and proper to eat in a place like this.
“Yes dear?” She put down her menu.
“What are you doing here?” I looked at her in a confused manner.
“I saw you were the only one in here, and I hadn’t eaten here before so I thought I’d keep you company.”
“Alright then.” I took another bite of my meal that I had only recently taken a bit out of.
“What’s good here?” She asked, perplexed by the menu’s foreign design.
I started looking over the menu, looking at various dishes, I know very little about Rarity, other than, being a pony, she was a vegetarian.
“Uhm, pho is always good, if you like soup that is.”
“I’m not exactly one for soup.”
I looked at her like a mad woman, and then just told her to order the dish that I had ordered. I stopped eating and we started speaking again.
“So, Twilight was telling me about something you have.” Rarity pointed to the chain that I was wearing around my neck with the gem tied to it.
“Oh this?” I asked, taking out the chain, and showing her the sapphire.
Rarity’s eyes dilated upon looking at it, I suppose she loved the look of the gem.
“She said you stole it.”
“It was in an abandoned castle, I simply retrieved it from there with no intention of giving it back.”
She looked at me like a moron, and to be fair, I don’t blame her. That was probably the worst excuse I have ever made.
“So you did steal it?”
“Okay you could call it stealing,” I retorted, “but it was left there in an unlocked room, it was clearly not wanted.”
“She also said there was a dragon roaming the halls. She found you in a stasis bubble with said dragon.”
Around then her food arrived, but she paid no mind to it.
Rarity continued, “If there was a dragon around there, could it be possible that the dragons are looking for it?”
I looked down and gripped the stone, “If they want it, or any of the other gems they can take it from my cold dead hands.”
Rarity was aghast at what I had said.
We started eating in silence, until she spoke up again.
“She said you noted that Pinkie Pie possible had another one of those gems.”
“Yeah?”
“Do you plan on taking it?”
“I plan on asking for it, and obtaining it, I will not steal it.”
Rarity laughed a little, “I doubt she will, that gem is very close to her.”
“I’ll get her to, I need to find those four, and the gem of dragon’s strength is gonna be a necessity.”
Rarity rolled her eyes, and we finished our meals and went our separate ways. She went home, and I started walking towards the bakery.
Upon stepping in, I saw that it wasn’t very busy around, Pinkie Pie was sitting at a table when I walked in.
“Hey there Pinkie.” I smiled at her.
“Hiya Connor!” She said excitedly.
“You know that one gem you were telling me about?”
“Yeah?”
“Well, could I see it, I was reading a book, and it might be more than you think it is.”
“Okay!” She said excitedly, running up the stairs, and coming down a few moments later with a shining red gem.
“May I hold it?” I ask, holding out my hand.
She nervously handed me the gem, and I started to examine it. It looked exactly like the one in the Draconomicon. I took out my chain with the blue gem tied to it.
“Pinkie, you have something very powerful, and very dangerous. It’s one of the gems of the dragon god, the one of power. This is the gem of sovereignty, and when I found this there was a dragon after me. You are not safe with that gem in your possession. Also, I’m trying to find all four, and I need that gem.”
“Hmm.” She said, rubbing her chin, and taking the gem back. “I’ll give it to you on one condition.”
“What’s that?”
“Dashie has been talking about you a lot, and really wants to see you in action or something like that, and whenever you go out into the wilderness for whatever reason, take her with you, she would love it.”
I laughed, “That’s all?”
“Yup.” She said with her tongue hanging out.
I took the gem, attached it to the chain, and walked out with a wave and a thank you to Pinkie Pie.
Come to think of it, it was kind of anticlimactic, but I didn’t care. Then, a devilish smile crossed my face, I wanted to test it.
I walked over to the Apple family acres, and found Macintosh.
“Hey Macintosh!” I yelled at him smacking my lap, “Why don’t you come charge me again, bet you can’t”
He rolled his eyes, and started walking away. I know I shouldn’t have said this, but to be perfectly frank, I was still pissed at how he wrecked my shit when I first came here.
I took a step forward, readied a stance, and said, “I fucked your sister.”
He turned around, looking at me with eyes that couldn’t be more hateful if they were Adolf Hitler’s themselves.
“What did you just say?”
I didn’t think he could talk! I thought he was just a farm hand that was too stupid to form sentences.
“I said I fucked your sister.” I said once more with confidence.
He dug his hoof into the dirt, and then charged at me with all his might. I am so happy I was right about that gem, because I was able to hold me own against him. Mind you, it was difficult, but when he charged I was able to put him in a headlock and put him down. I was finally victorious.
Once I had him on the ground, and I was letting him tire himself out, something happened that I wasn’t thinking about at the time. Applejack came from the home after hearing that ruckus, and rushed out.
I quickly stood up, and stepped away from Macintosh, who quickly stood up and started yelling at her for having relations with me. On the inside I was laughing so hard, but expressionless on the outside. Applejack explained, and long story short I’m writing this entry behind Pinkie Pie’s place, with my only warmth coming from the tattered clothes on my back, and Willard’s fur. This will not be a fun thing to explain away. Rage is an awful thing, but now that that’s out of my system, maybe they’ll forgive me. Hopefully. I need to not get cast away from this place.
