My Little Pony: Thunder Dash

*RING*

"Ugh, just give me five more minutes." I said groggily, the alarm clock still ringing forcing my hoof as I had to get up to turn it off.

"Ugh, ok." I said. I sat up in the bed that twilight had lent me, the room was small and contained a window, door, the bed, and a side table which had an old analogue alarm clock with the two bells on the top and a lamp. I rolled down the sheets slowly admiring my form as I went. Strong muscle covered by a layer of skin and fur, and supported by bone. I turned and put my back hooves down off the bed and rolled forward to put my front hooves on the ground, I turned and hit the top of the alarm clock with my hoof, and I walked over to and opened the door to the library.

"Good morning Thunder Dash." Spike said walking down the stairs and then heading towards a hallway leading off to what is probably the kitchen as he was wearing an apron.

"Nice to see you finally got up." Twilight said trotting down the stairs.

"Yeah, it was kind of hard to leave such a comfortable bed, but how do you sleep with these wings, I managed to get the blanket on and a couple seconds later my wings would shift or extend and knock the blanket off again." I said.

"Yeah it happens you'll get used to them eventually." She said. I was going to respond with a remark but something caught the attention of my nose.

"What is that delicious smell?" I asked Twilight.

"We'll, since I didn't know what kind of food you like I had Spike make apple pancakes." Twilight said.

"Thank you, but you didn't have to make me anything." I said.

"Nonsense you are my guest and it would be rude of me to eat and not offer you any when, it is breakfast and we are going to see the princesses." Twilight said.

"I shall have to repay the favor sometime." I said following Twilight down the hallway and towards the kitchen and dining area.

After eating for a while Twilight spoke, "So what did you think?”.

"The pancakes were amazing where did Spike learn to cook like that?" I asked.

"Just from books in the library." Twilight said.

"Really! He is quite good at it."

"Yes, he seems to have a bit of a natural talent for it." She said with a smile.

"So," I said, after finishing my last bit of pancake, “How do we plan to get to Canterlot?”

“My plan was to take the train, unless you think flying would be better?” She said.

“You can’t just teleport us there?” I asked, getting off of the stool I was sitting on while we where eating.

“Well, I could, but, heh, if you aren’t used to it you can sometimes get quite ill when you do it.” She said.

“How sick are we talking?” I asked, smiling a bit, thinking ‘Come on it can’t be that bad’.

“Let’s just say the last time someone was sick they were in bed for two days recovering.”

“Oh, heh, the train sounds fine then.” I say, smiling nervously, teleportation sounds dangerous. “Wait, oh shit!”

“Hey, what’s with the language?!” She said, looking quite surprised at my sudden use of that word.

“Oh, sorry, old habit, heh, I can stop using it if it offends you.” I said.

“It’s fine with me, I was just surprised that’s all, didn’t take you for someone who swears, just don’t use it around the colts and fillies ok.” She said.

“Understood.” I said.

“What did you remember?”

“Oh, I promised Pinkie I would go and see her at Sugar Cube Corner.”

“Oh, ok, we can stop there quickly on the way, as long as you don’t take to long.”

“Sounds good to me, I wish I didn’t promise her for today though, cause of the meeting and all.”

“You didn’t know that events would play out like they did.”

“True, very true.”

“Well, we should get going, we have to be at the castle in an hour.”

“’K, I’ll just go in and tell her that I can only just grab something and go because I have to be at the castle in an hour.”

“Sounds like a good reason.”

“Hopefully she’ll be ok with it.” I say, looking a little put off by having to back out of a promise, which I hate doing.

”I’m sure she will understand.” She said, putting her hoof on my shoulder.

“Spike, you’ll have to watch the place while we are gone, be good to Owlowiscious while we’re gone.”

He salutes Twilight and puts his hands on his hips, “Don’t worry Twilight, I got this.”

She waved to Spike as we walked out of the door to the library, she shut the door behind us and we started to head off to Sugar Cube Corner. The sun shone bright in the sky, it was a fairly warm day, a light breeze blew through our manes as we walked. A few minutes later we arrived at Sugar Cube.

"Remember, you only have a few minutes." She said, as I started to walk towards the open door of Sugar Cube Corner, the air filling with sweet smells of pastries.

"Heh, I'll keep it quick, see you in a few minutes." I look back at her smiling before I turn to head inside the building. Once I got inside the smell of sugar and icing hit me like a train, I almost fell over to be honest, the air was heavy with the smell, most bakeries in the human world that I had been to never seem to smell like this. Pinkie noticed me looking around and waved in my direction calling out to me.

“Hey Thunder, glad you made it!” She said from behind the counter.

“Hey Pinkie, yeah, Twilight and I where just heading to the train to,” I stopped, should I say it out loud, or should I get closer, I decided to play it safe, “To head to Canter lot.“ I finished talking and walked over to her.

“Why are you going to, oh, your going to see the Princesses aren’t you.” She said giggling.

“Yeah, I just didn’t want to yell it out loud I said.

“Ok, so I guess you can’t stay for long then.” She said, looking a little disappointed, but not to much.

“Yeah, I feel really bad about promising you that I’d come only to let you down, I can stay for a few minutes though.” She seemed to perk back up

“In that case, here.” She shoved a cupcake in my mouth faster then I could react, all I could do was chew and swallow it. I coughed a bit, but then the taste started to hit me, caramel, then vanilla, then something I could only describe as very sweet with a bit of a salty aftertaste. “So did you like it?”

“Wow…what was that, that was amazing.” I said liking my lips of the caramel flavoured buttercream frosting.

“I’m so glad you liked it its called caramel surprise, here,” She placed a bag on the counter filled with at least 4 more of them, “Have some for your trip.”

“Aw, thanks Pinkie, you really didn’t have to do that, I have no way of paying for these.”

“Hehe, there on the house this time, consider it a welcome present.” She said jumping a bit.

“Thanks, when I know I can for sure I’ll stop by and hang out with you like I promised.” I said before picking the bag up in my mouth, and walking towards the door.

“Okie dokie lokie, have fun on you train ride.” She said waving by to me as I headed for the door.

I waved back, “Thanks, and thanks again for the cupcakes.” I said smiling back at her then picking up the bag in my mouth again and walking out the door.

Back outside Twilight looked a little impatient before she caught view of me, “I was worried you were going to take to long, what’s in the bag?”

I put the bag down next to her, “Pinkie gave me some cupcakes, she said they where on the house, caramel surprise I believe is what she called them, they’re amazing.”

“I have no doubt that they are, Pinkie Pie is an amazing baker.”

“So how’d she take it?” Twilight said levitating the bag into her saddle bags as we began to head towards the train station.

“At first she seemed a little disappointed but, all in all she seemed ok with it, I said that I’d keep the promise the next time I had the time, and knew I’d be able to do it.”

“Good, I’m glad that the first two ponies you have met have been good experiences for you.”

“I’m glad too, truth be told I can’t really imagine what her reaction will be, or what the princesses’ll say, you think they’ll send me back?” I said, hanging my head a bit, the realisation that they could very well do that hitting me.

She looked over to me and saw my demeaner had changed, “Hey, she probably won’t send you back, I mean you aren’t causing any problems, yeah you probably know more about me then I do about you, but you seem like a nice pony, otherwise I wouldn’t have let you stay with me.” She said.

“Thanks, hat means a lot Twilight.” I said, especially coming from the Princess of Friendship, my demeaner changing back to they way it was before.

“Your welcome, now, to the train station.” She said, as we walked off in the direction of the station, Canterlot in the distance and the Equestrian sun high in the sky as ponyville bustled around us.

Unknown room

"Ugh.......w-where am I." David said groggily into the darkness, all he knew was that he was in a large comfy chair with an iv in his arm

"Hello!?" He said, "Ok who's there, I faintly see an out line of someone."

*thwack*

"Ow!" He exclaimed, a burning feeling erupting on his face from the area it was hit "What do you want!?"

"Where is he?" The figure inquired.

"Who *thwack* oh come on I have no idea who you are asking about!" Dave yelled, after being hit again.

"The other boy you were with." The figure spoke.” Where is he?!” *thwack*

"I don't know, I passed out after I was shot, I think, my memory is blurry." He said.

"Well think harder or I will use the other methods I have of retrieving the information." The figure said.

*thwack*

"Ow." Suddenly a door opened and a blinding light appeared.

"What the hell are you doing, Get away from him!" Another voice said in the dark.

"What makes you think he will speak to you." The first voice said.

"Because I know him, who authorized you to do this?" The second voice spoke.

“Doctor Issac authorized this.”

“Get out of here, and tell him I want to speak with him once I’m done here.” A light flashed on revealing the source of the second voice.

"Mr. Ericson?" Dave said confused, why was Wesley’s uncle here to question him.

"Hello David, now, do you have any idea where Wesley is?"
