Where am I? I think to myself as I start to open my eyes. I look around as I gather my bearings. all around me there are plains with a single path cutting through them. How did I end up here? I ask myself. The only problem is I can't really remember much. It looks like its about to be night soon, so I decide to head off along the path with no real goal in mind. After a time I begin to see houses and lights in the distance. It looks like a comfortable village. Maybe someone there can help me figure things out. I look behind me to see that the sun has almost set.Iit will be cold and dark soon. I shiver at the thought and continue to make my way to the village. As I near the outskirts of the town I see a sign.
"Ponyville" I say. "Maybe someone can help me here" as I walk through the streets I notice that everypony seems to have already gone inside. As I don't exactly relish the idea of knocking on some random ponys door and asking for help I continue looking for somepony who is still outside. I slowly arrive at a cottage on a hill where there is a yellow pony with a pink mane tending to some animals. oh thank celestia maybe she can help me I trot over to her
"excuse me ma'am? do you think you could help me?" she looks towards me then away, hiding in her hair. "I'm sorry to be a bother but I have nowhere to stay for the night and I was hoping that you might have a spare room?" she gives a small whimper and continues to look at me through her hair. *what is up with this mare?* "um let me introduce myself, my name is Skylar guardian, what is your name?" I swear she looks like she about to cry as she makes another squeak. " I'm sorry I didn't catch that" she retreated a step
"my name is fluttershy" she whispered.
"did you say fluttershy?" I ask. she nods. true to her name I see. "well is there a shed or something that I might could sleep in for the night? I have some bits I can give you" she continues to look at me, still hiding in her hair. slowly she raises a hoof and points in the direction of a tool shed. "thank you" i said trotting over to the shed. its fairly well kempt. she brought me out a pillow and some blankets. I thanked her and played down to go to sleep as she left. as soon as I closed my eyes I was out.
As I woke up I heard the sound of the tool shed door opening. "Umm.. there's some breakfast in the cottage if you are hungry" a shy voice said. " just come in when your ready... if that's okay I mean" "ghrfl" is my only response. I hear the door shut as she returns to the cottage. Still half asleep, I start to make my way to the cottage. As I pass through the yard I see all kinds of little critters scurrying about. *does she just let them run around?* I come up to her home and open the door to see a little white bunny standing right behind the threshold. *cute bunny* I think to myself. Fluttershy walks in to the living room.
"Oh don't mind my little angel. He wouldn't hurt a fly" she says. Looking at the death glare he is giving me I start to wonder if that's true. Still... can't be all that bad, after all what could a little bunny like him do?
Suddenly there is a growling noise. Fluttershy gasps and hurriedly flys into the kitchen. I start to look for the source of the noise until I realise what is growling. Oh my it seems like I'm hungrier than I thought. I walk into the kitchen to fund fluttershy flying in a corner with her hooves over her head. "Its alright fluttershy you can come down" I say to the scared mare., "it was just my stomach growling". She slowly moves her hooves away from her head
"o-ok" she manages to say. She lands near the table and looks at breakfast. On the table are pancakes with various berries and syrup, bluberry muffins, some eggs, and some apple juice. "I hope you like it" she says with a small smile "dig in" gotta say that phrase was a big mistake.
I would like to say that I ate like a fairly civilized gentlecolt. I really really would like to be able to say that. Is it were I ate more like a starving timber wolf who hadn't found a meal in days than anything even resembling civilzed. Smooth... anyway as I'm just finishing my 3rd helping (what? She cooks a mean pancake!) The shy made in front of me spoke up softly. Huh I'd kinda forgot about her. "Ummm.... so mister Skyler sir why were you wandering about with no where to sleep? Are you far from home?" The question catches me off guard. I stop eating and look at her for a moment as I gather my thoughts.
"Honestly I don't really know. The only thing I can really remember is waking up next to a path in a field of grass." She looks at me with a worried expression.
"You don't remember anything at all? Like where you lived or where any of your family is?" I shake my head.
"No. I don't even know if iv got family out there." I said.
"oh you poor thing" she said looking at me with concerned eyes. "I wish I could help..." she looked out the window, an idea forming in her mind. "I know, me and the girls are meeting in the park for a picnic. Why don't you cone with me and meet the girls and we will see if they can help?" I tapped my hoof on my jaw thinking it over.
"Yea sure why not. Maybe they can help" I could only hope she was right

ATTENTION!!
To anyone who does not like my story. Fear not for this abomination born of sheer laziness shall be promptly scrapped in order to make room for what I hope will be a better story. I gave my character amnesia, out of laziness BC I didn't think of his origins beforehand. Stay tuned as Skyler will be new and improved, memory intact shortly
