The Element of Honor!

After the thing that happened in the forest I got Fluttershy and the cub out of there without telling them anything. I couldn't let them know what was in there, but I also couldn't let anyone else find it. So once I got out of there I told Fluttershy to take the cub home while I did something. The something I was doing was going back to the library and seeing what this words version of gasoline was.

I walked into the library and looked around, neither barney nor Twilight was there, at least where I was and I wasn't willing to shout upstairs to see who was in. I decided I would look for the book instead of bothering anyone. Although I didn't want to waste time I also didn't want anyone knowing what had happened or that might raise questions about how it happened.

Once I found the book I needed I flipped through it. There was nothing on how to aquire it, how to make it or even where it comes from. 'Fucking book, you peice of shit. Why can't you tell me where I can get some?' My fustration was getting the better of me for sure, I didn't even hear somebody approaching me I was that annoyed.

"What'ya looking at?" The redneck accent was so familliar to the one before but was much deeper, I flipped around to see Apple Jack looking at me with a grin on her face. "Didn't expect you to be here." She stated and began staring at the book. "And I didn't expect you to be able to read." She was blurting out anything that came to mind.

'Oh come on, I look like a bald ape but it isn't that bad isn't it.' I didn't bother saying it out loud because I frankly couldn't be arsed explaining the different 2% between us.

"Yeah I can read." She gave a deadpan look and I'm guessing it was because I had a book in my hand so it ws obvious I could read. "But I'm having a problem finding a comparrison to fuel in my world. This tells me just what crude oil is, but it's not telling me how to get it."

Apple Jack seemed to listen all the way through my talking and she seemed quite interested in what I was saying, maybe because I was talking about a whole different world here. "Ah see, you want fuel. However, fuel in our country is deemed unsafe so the public is not aloud to use it." She spoke in words I didn't expect to come out of her mouth; they sounded quite smart towards what I expected her to use.

"Really, in my world it's weird for someone not to use it." I replied without much thought to it and then I realised that my worlds rules didn't apply here. Like how I haven't had bacon since I got here is because not many races here are carnivore and the ones that are probably aren't sentient.

"So what you need is fuel, right?" She seemed to be offering a way for me to find it, that was a good deal as long as she didn't want to know what I needed it for.

"Yeah, that is my current goal." I said cautiously, I don't think she would betray me but she doesn't seem like she would be easy to win over.

"So anything that burns?" She asked. I nodded my head so she would get to the point. "Well, how 'bout I let you have some of the ethanol I put in ma moonshine." Oh god redneck alert.

I ignored the fact that she was stereotypically redneck and I began to think. 'That's a good deal, just what does she want for it?' I looked at her and tried to scan for signs of her being manipulative, but I found none. "What do you want for it then?"

My question was met with AppleJack putting a stern face on. "I wan't you to promise you wont hurt anybody that doesn't deserve it." Her typical southern accent almost disappeared when she said that.

"Why would I do that?" Now it was getting offensive, I understand not trusting me but straight up bribing me to stop me is just insulting.

"Everpony can see ya fangs everytime you smile." So what I should stop smiling. "I can tell ya need to eat meat, but don't hurt anything that can think."

"Humans don't do that anyway; it's taboo." I told her it made her calm down a bit. She seemed less tense that she was before and she also put on a big grin.

"So what do you need fire for?" She asked the one question I didn't wan't somebody to ask.

I tried to think of something and it was taking time, this would've made it a lot more suspicious to anybody. 'Say a bonfire, you can't lie so don't tell a lie. It wouldn't be classed as a lie.' Dexter helped, me it had been a couple of hours since he talked to me.

"It's for a bonfire, it also may help me find out somethings about getting home." I added the getting home bit. It was a bit of a lie but she bought it.

"Okay then, how 'bout ya come along to the farm later and I'll have some ready." I was lucky to get this offer, in fact without it someone might stumble upon the body. If they see the crystals they may try to find out the cause and it may go to the Princesses. That create work for them and they'll probably piss me off about it.

The farm? "Where's the farm?" I asked, i had seen no farm and if I had I didn't remember it.

"Just ask the featherbrain." She was speaking in fucking riddles today. Her thick accent didn't help either. Having a conversation with her is like the process for any COD: Zombies easter egg. Once she realised I didn't understand that featherbrain was someone I knew instead of a crappy name for a drug dealer in this world, she clearly told me who. "Rainbow Dash, ya big dummy."

"Oh, okay then I'll ask her." I managed to get that in before she paractically disappeared and only giving the 'I got summet to do now' excuse. I sighed and begun making my way out when I met the little dinosuar from before, he was walking in on his own grubling something that I couldn't quite hear.

"Hey Barney."

"My name is NOT Barney, it's Spike." He stopped me just to correct me, wow what a dick. I'm still gonna call him Barney though. "Twilight is looking for you, she is near the Carousel Boutique." He told me if he wanted me to go.

The people here were terrible at giving directions. Like where is the Kerosene whatchamean. I didn't understand a word he spit out, it was like a girl talking about fashion and you just want to say 'Are you trying to tell me my shoes are bad or what?' I didn't even bother asking I just walked out of the door and pretended I was walking there, I was just hoping I didn't actually run into anyone.

For the next hour I spent avoiding somebody I didn't want to see, only to avoid becoming a pin cushion. It also seemed to be getting towards sunset, the day was going pretty quick.

'Should I go now? Or is it too early?' I tried to ask the voices, but no reply. I sighed and decided to myself that I would now go, if I was too early it was too bad I was getting some fuel. I took a glance around, there was a ton of buildings in my way and I could not see a field anywhere. There were still a couple of ponies out on the street I figured I would ask one of them where I could find the farm.

There was a brown redshirt that was across the road from me, he seemed to just be completely dazed, which made me think if horses have junkies like humans do. I brushed it off and started to approach him, I was hoping that he had some brains to tell me where the farm is. "Escuse me." I called out politely first.

The earth pony shot around and looked at me, now that he was facing me I could tell it was a guy just from the sheer size of his body. "Yep?" He asked realising I wanted to talk to him not walk past him and into the stand he was facing at.

"Do you know where the farm is, you know the one that Applejack is at?" I asked giving some more detail then needed, but it seemed to catch his attention.

The earth pony lowered his head and readied himself to charge like a bull. "What'dya want with ma sister?" His tone was now hostile and completely redneck-ified.

'Shit, why is everyone so hostile.' I stuck my hands up, I didn't want a ton of dense meat flying my way. "Woah, calm down. You wouldn't hit a child would ya?" I asked. As much as it embarrased me to not call myself a teen it was still better then having this sentient meatball flattening me. "Anyway I'm a friend of your sisters." I felt awkward leaving the word with an 's' on the end so I continued by saying. "Both of them."

"Yer not lying are ya?" He said only raisng his head a little bit. "Cause if you are..."

"I know, you could probably crush me with one of your legs. This situation is scary to be in in the first place." I was now managing to calm the lump of raging meat down.

The earth pony sighed a breath of relief and raised his head. "I'm sorry about that, my name is BigMac." Just him saying that name was making me grow hungry.

"I get it, you're trying to protect your family. And my name is Cole." I said putting out a hand and then realising that even though he is tall there is still a big enough size difference to make it awkward. "So will you point me towards the direction of your farm? I have something I need to get off your sister."

"Ah was just about to go back, I'll show you the way." He began to walk through the town and I followed because I needed to get the fuel before someone goes into the forest and see the corpse. After a while of walking BigMac asked me a question that he seemed to be holding in. "So are you realy a child?"

"Well, in my world I class as a teenager, which is the ages from 13-19. I'm 15 so I still will be a teen for a couple of years."

"Really? You're still big for a child." I couldn't tell whether he was complimenting me or getting small man syndrome, but from someone thats practically made of muscle like him it was a good compliment. Even if it wasn't meant to be.

"Well in my world we grow more up then we do out. So we may not be as strong but we have still got opposible thumbs." I said doing a thumbs up gesture out in front of me. 'I have a feeling I'll be saying certain things alot.'
