The Lost is Found.

After we finish are meal, we clean up the kitchen and then feed the animals there food that they will need before we set off to Ponyville. After 5 minutes we are completely squared away and the home stead looks to be in great condition, something that speaks bounds about Fluttershy’s work ethic.

“Wow, I got to hand it to ya Fluttershy you really know how to get stuff done.” I say while running my fingers through her mane. She then beams up to me, a slight blush across her face.

“G-glad you are impressed.” She says while closing her eyes and enjoying me run my fingers through her mane. After I take a few more brushes through her pink mane, I then remove my hand from her mane and then turn to face the door.

“Is everything ready, I don’t mean to rush you, but I really am interested in meeting the rest of your friends.” I say kindly, breaking Fluttershy out of her thoughts. She kindly shakes her head and then starts to dash from spot to spot, animal to animal looking for anything to be out of place. I am so caught up in trying to keep up with Fluttershy that I barely notice the sound of something moving around outside. However when I hear the sound of a few animal like grunts and then a long yawn, I realize that Annabelle must be awake and she is probably going to want to see me. While Fluttershy continues to dash from place to place, I slowly make my way to the door, wanting to get out of side into the morning air. “Fluttershy, when you are ready I am going to be outside with Annabelle, just come on over when you are ready.” I say opening to door.

“Okay, it will only take a second.” Fluttershy says before dashing off again. Knowing that she had heard me I quickly open the door and step out onto the porch. The light of the morning and the smell of air around me now bombards my senses much more than they had when I had my head out the window instantly warming me to the core. “This is going to be a great day.” I think to myself while stepping off the porch and onto the front yard. However if there is one thing that has not changed it was the entire Everfree forest is still dark with a hint of evil rising from it. Then I hear the sound of some great beast in the distance and instantly I think to myself. “Yep still the creepy dark Everfree forest.”

Knowing that unless I was up for killing things I would not go into there, I take my leave from in front of the forest and start to head to the side of the cottage where Annabelle is sleeping. Her gentle breathing permeates the area, making a slight pause as she takes in a breath and then exhales. When I get close to where Annabelle is located, I slow my pace so that I am walking at half pace and look over to the massive T rex. She is peacefully sound asleep, her tongue hanging out of her mouth and her eyes are shut tight while her legs twitch slightly back and forth, indicating that she is more than likely dreaming. Seeing her in this state makes me hesitant to wake her and interrupt her dreaming, but I know that if I let her sleep and leave without letting her know, she is going to freak out and follow my scent right into Ponyville then all hell would break loose, which afterwards I cringe at what would happen.

With a new thought to justify my waking of the massive animal, I stop about 5 feet from her face and sigh. “Annabelle, it’s time to wake up.” I say in a light and motherly voice. The massive T rex seems to register this for a few seconds as she slightly stirs in its sleep before opening her eyes slightly and then slowly closing them again returning to sleep. Now knowing that at least she was not too deep in her sleep, I step all the way to her and put one of my hands near her nose and started to massage gently. “Come on up, the sun is out and I know you want to kill some more Caragors today.” I say in the same way, except this time a tab bit louder. This seems to get the T rex’s attention as the dino kicks slightly and her eyes shoot open there full size and then looks straight to me. “Good morning!” I say smiling and continuing to rub her gently under her nose. At first she appears to be confused about my identity, but after blinking her eyes two times she coos in her throat and nuzzles my face, instantly telling me she must have recognized me.

As she is nuzzling me, she breathes her foul air into my face causing me to gag slightly from the stench of death and rotting meat which almost knocks me on my feet. I remove my hand from her and stumble backwards while turning my head to the side to gasp for air while I try to hold in my overloaded stomach. A few seconds of close calls and panting later, I turn my head back to Annabelle and cringe slightly. Annabelle now has her head cocked to one side and has a worried look on her face. Knowing that she might think that she has upset me, I immediately get worried and get close to her again. “You did not upset me, it’s just…well never mind that, say do you mind opening your mouth for a second, want to make sure my girl’s healthy!” I say with enthusiasm.

At first the massive T rex just stares at me blankly and cocks its head even more, causing me to sprout a nervous smile, but after a few second I can see the gears finally turn into place and she gently nods before lowering her head and opening her mouth, instantly relieving me of my nervous feelings. When I feel ready I look down into her mouth and what I see is absolutely terrifying and disgusting. Her two rows of massive razor sharp teeth are covered in dried blood with scattered pieces of rotting flesh and small pieces of bone. The parts of her gums that are not covered in blood are a light pink color, indicating that they are not infected. Her massive tongue is a reddish pink color that is covered in thousands of taste buds about the size of one of my thumbs. That is, at least the parts that I can see, the rest are covered in blood and other various remains of animals of her past meals.

Not even some parts of Hell that I have seen can even begin to compare to this sight, something that was hitting me like a steel mace. “Oh, I see something interesting in here, looks like you’re sick, let me fix that real quick.” I say backing up slightly while motioning for my friend to keep her mouth open. “This calls for some serious, spring time cleaning and I know just the shout for that! Having my mind set on what I am going to do, I take a deep inhale of breath and making a few last second adjustments, shout my miracle thuum. “Vah!” (Spring!) a massive burst of blue very similar to my unrelenting force shout shoots from my mouth and straight into Annabelle’s. Instantly the blood and chunks of flesh and bone start to disappear and some of the bad smell starts to clear up from her breath. I then wait a good 30 seconds before then approaching her maw and look closer at the details.

Not a spec of food remains inside and all the blood and dried gore has been replaces with the pinkness that is her gums. The yellow color of her teeth has even faded slightly and I can see a slight whiteness about them. Seeing that at least the details had been taken care of, I then hesitantly take a sniff of her breath. Instead of cringing backwards I find that her breath now smells pleasantly like a brook with all sorts of amazing smelling flowers growing along its bank. However, before getting any deeper to admire my handiwork I am interrupted by a loud BANG and then hurried footsteps. When I look towards the commotion I see Fluttershy zoom around the corner in a blur then run straight up to me. She stops when she is about 5 feet from me, her heavy breathing filling my ear. She has a worried and nervous look in her eyes and her mouth was agape slightly as she sucked in air through her mouth, as if she had just ran the mile.

“W-what was that loud sound?” She says in something barely above a whisper. Knowing she might have been freaked out about the loud yell and then the boom from my shout I try to explain.

“That was one of my other shouts or thuum that I told you about last night.” I say desperately, while smiling a nervous smile. The mare visually relaxes a little but her breathing still remains heavy and her eyes are still wide spread.

“What were you doing?” She ask in question and I point to Annabelle, who has now shut her mouth and is standing up looking at the both of us.

“I used that shout you just heard to clean the “sickness” out of Annabelle’s mouth.” I say making sure to recoil at the word sickness. Fluttershy now nods her head in agreement then opens her mouth a little and breathes out. I just simply nod my head and pretend to choke a little, causing the mare to giggle even more. Seeing her giggle makes me laugh lightly and before long I find myself start to blush. “How does she do that, if the others can make me do this, which I think after my fantasy is a possibility…how I am going to deal with liking 4 other ponies plus a princess that might like me the same way, uh it might drive me crazy!”

As I think this I continue to laugh and blush slightly at Fluttershy, trying to hide the fact that I am deep in thought. However my train of thought and laughter is interrupted by Annabelle nudging me on the back which makes me return to the present. I shake my head in an effort to make sure that I put the thought out of mind and after a few shakes my head clears completely and I see that Fluttershy is now rubbing against Annabelle’s legs affectionately and cooing in happiness. I then turn to face the path up to the road, my autistic mind wandering off into the distance with each passing second. My crazy mind starts putting together all kinds of crazy adventures to go on in the future, some of them seem possible while others flat out impossible, but yet I still let my imagination run wild and somehow something inside my head keeps telling me that even my wildest thoughts could all become reality somehow, thanks to this wonderful land of Equestria.

However just as I get really deep into my imagination, a soft feeling of something pressing into my shoulder arouses me from my deep thoughts. I turn and see that Fluttershy is giving me a wondering look and is probably interested in what I am day dreaming about. “I am just letting my mind wander a little, that’s all.” I say while turning to face her, making her hoof fall off of my shoulder.

“It is good to have imagination, makes you more interesting to talk to.” She says while walking past me towards the path that leads up to the road. She then stops about half way to the path and turns around to face me. “If you are ready, then we can get going, I know you are eager to see Ponyville.” Fluttershy says happily.

“Yes! Just hang on one second.” I say quickly turning around to face Annabelle. Annabelle has a happy mood about her body and when she sees me looking at her she starts to purr slightly. “I am going to go into Ponyville for a while, I know you are not going to be happy about this, but I need for you to stay hear while I am gone.” As soon as I finish the last part, the purring stops and her body slightly droops and she starts to wine slightly. “Ah don’t be upset, it’s just that if you went with me to Ponyville it might freak somepony out and that might start a panic.” This statement does absolutely no good as her whining starts to intensify and leaves me with an even bigger mess to try and smooth over. “Hey, I promise that I will come back, besides someone needs to make sure that no beast form the forest come and try to eat the animals, you know how the Caragors and Raptors can be.”I say seriously.

Almost instantly her whining stops and a slight snarl starts to come from deep in her throat. Then she stands up and gives a loud roar, making my worried state melt away and be replaced by pride. I thought that would not work. As quickly as it started the loud roaring comes to a complete halt and she then looks down to me, a fierce anger in her eyes. This makes me smile and throw my fist in the air. “If any of them even so dares to cross into the yard, then tear them apart and devour them, send a message that no predator can cross a T rex’s territory and live!” I say triumphantly, pumping one of my other fists into the air to which Annabelle than gives another loud roar and then motions to me with her head to join Fluttershy. I quickly give her face a rub and then quickly face the path and run up so that I am beside Fluttershy. “Okay, that takes care of that, don’t worry I think your animals will be quite safe now.” I say while beaming back at Annabelle. Then I quickly turn back to Fluttershy and she smiles and points a hoof towards the road.

“It is about 5 miles to Ponyville, you ready for that.” When I hear that it is really five miles away, I groan slightly to on the inside but dawn a smile and fist pump the air.

“Let’s go!” I say while I start to walk forward and Fluttershy does the same. As I start to get into thought about walking the road and what it may hold, the urge to sings hits me and as we get onto the road I start to sing Born to be Wild by Stephen Wolf.

...

After we have walked for about 2 miles I can feel myself start to slow down, my breathing is heavy and long. “Man, this shit sucks, I thought that I was in better shape than this…guess not.” I think to myself in between breaths as I continue to look at the endless stretch of dirt road.

“You need a break Chris.” Fluttershy asks me kindly off to my right side. I then turn to look at the mare to see that she has a worried expression on her face and a hoof on my side. Taking this as a statement I decide to slow my pace some and then spotting a large tan rock walk over to it and sit down while taking a few huge gasps of air.

“Holy shit, it looked so short a distance from the window!” I say wiping some sweat off my forehead and looking back over to Fluttershy, see that she is hovering just a foot off the ground. “You’re lucky to have wings, I would love to fly right about now!” I say while leaning my head back and looking up to the sky. “Back on earth, I would always ride dragons so I never questioned what it was like to not be able to, but now I know and it sucks!” I exclaim in an annoyed fashion.

“You can ride dragons?!”

“Yea, just one of the perks of being Dragonborn.” I say as a slight breeze smacks into my hot skin. It is just a momentary relief from the intense heat, but I seem to be reveling in its coolness. “Oh thank God, some wind, now if only it was more intense I might be able to cool myself down.” I think to myself in longing. Then when the breeze dies out I find myself cursing on the inside and wiping myself down with my shirt tail again. As I do this, I start to fan myself with my shirt and the wind from that is making me want to do it more intensely. Then as if I had been smacked, an idea shoots into my head and instantly I get up with a happy expression. “Speed up to cool down, why did I not think of this before!” Turning to face Fluttershy she looks at me with a confused expression and this makes me smile. “I think I know a way to get us to Ponyville very quickly, you just have to let me know if you are open to going really fast.” Her expression goes from confusion to slight wonder and she instantly lands.

“W-what do you mean?” I then flap my shirt once more and sigh.

“Well, I know this shout that will move me with the speed of a tempest, about the speed of a tornado, with that we can get to Ponyville in a flash.” Instantly I can see a shade of worry creep onto her face and she starts to stutter.

“B-but won’t t-that h-hurt you?”

“No not at all, the only thing is that it will blur your vision slightly, but since I am controlling it, neither of us will get hurt.” I say in a matter of fact tone. However before I can continue, Fluttershy cuts me off.

“Either of us?” She says questionable, to which I nod and continue to speak.

“Yea, if you hang on to me then I can get us both there at the same time, so you up for it?” I ask eagerly. Fluttershy reluctantly gives a slight head shake and then stands quietly while shaking slightly, looking at me as if she was unsure of what to do. When a few moments pass of silence, I decide that it probably was a bad idea and I sigh lightly. “Never mind, it was just an idea.” I say sadly before turning around and staring at the long road ahead. This is going to suck! Then I start to walk defeated further down the dirt road.

“Wait!” I instantly turn around to face Fluttershy and see that she wears a solemn expression. “I think it is worth a shot, but if I squeeze you tight then it won’t bother you will it?” Fluttershy asks me curiously but hearing this come out of her mouth is all I need.

“Nope not one bit, now go ahead and hop on my back!” I say turning around so she can climb aboard. Fluttershy then slowly jumps up on my back, placing her back legs around my waste and her forelegs around my chest underneath of my arms. She then shuffles around slightly and then stops where her chest is square against my back, which causes me to blush. “You ready back there?” I say to which Fluttershy nods her head slightly and I refocus my attention on the road ahead of me. “Alright now hold on tight and prepare to be amazed!” A few seconds after I say that, I close my eyes and take in a deep breath. A sudden energy starts to flow into my blood and before long it is coursing through my entire body.

Then the energy fills me, I quickly open my eyes. “Wuld Na Kest!” (Whirlwind sprint!) As soon as the last word leaves my mouth, my legs instantly turn to mini tornadoes and then my body rockets forward, kicking up a cloud of dirt into the air. However, I quickly adjust to the massive speed increase and then lower my head slightly and fiercely watch the road. This is the fastest that I have ever gone on the ground before, way faster than the usual whirlwind sprint shout could carry me and the increase of power is something that I make sure to take notice of. The world around me is flying by at a breakneck pace, but it does not bother me because I am focusing on the great feeling of wind whipping across my hot skin and the feeling of being a speed demon. “Woo hoo!” I say while snaking back and forth from one side of the road to the other. However, while I am having a great time, I suspect that Fluttershy is not judging by the lack of movement minus the tightening of her around me. “Well then, looks like this is something I will never get to do again, damn and just when I thought I would give her a thrill ride and get a reason for her to wrap herself around me!” I say in frustration as I continue to glide effortlessly down the long dirt road.

When a few more seconds pass by and I turn into a curve, I get my first look of the outskirts of Ponyville not but a half mile ahead of us and will the sprint to start to slow down. From where I am positioned I can see a couple ponies walking into town and a few stands set up along a giant windmill, but because of my speed I cannot tell any of the details. Continuing to slow down, I can start to make out a few details on the ponies. One of them is a pegasus with a light grey coat and red colored eyes that seem to be focused on looking for somepony, while the other is a desert tan earthpony with a long tail and fierce green eyes.

They both seem to be in a complete trance, not paying attention to the road or building, but instead were bouncing from place to place. For me, because of years of social training, set off an indicator in my head telling me that they may require help so I then will the sprint to slow down even further. By now I am moving along at ¾ reduced speed from just a few seconds ago and I can feel Fluttershy loosen her grip on me and lets out a breath of relief. This slightly angers me because I was trying to have fun but all I did was scare her and I mentally kick myself for being so stupid. Knowing that I was going to have to make it up to her sometime, I decide that since we were only 200 feet from town that it would be a good place to stop and start to explore. “Helt!” (Halt!)

When I say this the tornadoes instantly disappear and my feet contact the ground, causing me to trip slightly before I can regain my footing and avoid falling over. I look back to Fluttershy and smile slightly in embarrassment before turning back to center and sighing. Got to learn how to avoid that one in the future. Still madly embarrassed that I had just almost fallen over, I then start the remainder of my trip towards Ponyville, wondering about the mystery and letting my imagination wonder slightly. I wonder what the other will think of me, well Rainbow will probably try to brag about herself which I will refute easily, Pinkie Pie will just be Pinkie Pie, Rarity will probably comment on my clothes while insisting she make me better clothes while blushing from her obvious attraction, Applejack will probably be up front and tell me her name and some other things, and Twilight will probably ask me a million questions while trying to hide a blush....but either way I can sense one thing…that they are all going to instantly develop crushes on me, great!

The thoughts of my soon to be paradise makes me smile warmly and I try to refocus on the here and now to not get lost before my first ever entrance to Ponyville. By now I am only 25 feet from the entrance and can see that the two ponies have still not spotted me and continue to look around the road and buildings, making it crystal clear they must be looking for something. Wanting to help out the ponies as best I could, I ask Fluttershy to release me and she releases me with a soft whine and then starts to tread beside me. Noticing the slight whine, I quickly run a hand through her mane and smile at her. She instantly smiles back to me and a slight blush spreads across her face. “Do you know those two ponies up ahead?” I say them motioning to the two ponies and then turning back to face her.

“Yes, the pegasus is Glide and the earthpony is Candor, there merchants from another province of Equestria but they often stop by Ponyville to sell exotic things, usually food and weapons.” My mind instantly locks on to the word “weapons” and I start to chuckle slightly.

“I bet they would absolutely die to get their hooves on my Daedric armor and sword, they’re one of the best of the best, and most smiths are not hot enough to forge them.”

“Then how do you make it?”

“Well mine was first crafted in the forges of darkness in Hell and then it was sent to Heaven to be cooled and hardened in the river of salvation, otherwise I do not think it is even possible.” Fluttershy looks slightly confused at first but then nods her head and turns back to face Ponyville and I do the same, knowing that not even Celestia would be able to explain it so I would not even try until Twilight was around. Continuing to tread briskly towards my destination, my foot catches something brittle on the ground and it breaks under my foot, causing the two ponies at the entrance to whirl around and look in are direction.

“Oh hey Fluttershy, have you happen to see a piece of metal lying…” That statement then dies out as Candor turns her head towards me and instantly she freezes up and a look of confusion and fear blossoms on her face. Ah shit! Instantly my forward steps stop and I try to put on a smile and make it seem like I was of no danger.

“Hello there!” I say nervously waving to the dumbfounded mare. Candor continues to look at me with a look of fear and that is when Glide turns his head in my direction and instantly starts to reach for the sword on his side. This sends panic messages throughout my body and I start to get a bad feeling, but I try and play it off and try to calm the situation down. “I am Chris, what is your name?” I say easily while not taking my eyes of the sword on Glide’s side.

“The demon can speak?!” Glide says before getting in front of Candor sword from his side and eyeing me down with a fierce look. This for some reason strikes a nerve within me and a slight amount of anger surface.

“I am not a demon, I am a human.” I say in a slightly irritated voice while unintentionally taking a step forward, causing them to back up slightly and then turn around and bolt inside of Ponyville screaming at the top of their lungs.

“Everypony, there is a demon at the front of Ponyville and it has Fluttershy!” Sighing I look over to Fluttershy and see that she has a surprised look on her face.

“Are the ponies often like this?” I say while continuing once more to step forward while Fluttershy has a confused persona.

“N-no n-not usually, they usually are open and friendly, very strange.”

“Well…I can’t really blame them, after all it’s not every day that a pony sees a human as you well know.” I say making a ball with my hands and then exploding them outwards. Fluttershy is impressed with this as shown by some giggles, but she keeps a nervous look on her face.

“You s-sure it is a g-good idea t-to go into Ponyville, I mean now that e-everypony thinks you have c-captured me?” That is when I take a second to think, but quickly come to a conclusion.

“Yea, believe me I am used to dealing with these kinds of situations…if I can soothe a wild T rex then trust me, I will be okay.” I say before Fluttershy puts a hoof on my shoulder causing me to stop in my tracks.

“O-okay, but I just d-don’t want them to hurt you.” She says in a worried voice to which I place a hand on her hoof and give it a gently squeeze. Fluttershy once again blushes and I look to the windmill.

“Trust me, nothing bad will happen, all I gotta do is just explain who I am and all will end well.” I say gently squeezing her hoof tighter. Fluttershy knows she is beat and does not try to argue, but she does however do something unexpected and plants a slight kiss on my cheek taking me by surprise and making me blush a bright red. The place where she kissed my cheek is pulsing with energy and I can feel the emotion heating up my insides. “Well then, I guess that confirms that she has something for me, but something tells me she did not mean to do that.” I think to myself while smiling a happy smile and releasing her hoof from my hand. Then once again I start to step towards the town and wonder how I am going to make what I said a reality.

As soon as we cross into town and crest the top of a small hill, I see something that surprises me. The entire town seems abandoned, as no pony is outside and some of the carts with various foods and other commodities are tipped over and trampled. All the windows and doors are closed tight and there is not a sound out besides the rustling of an occasional breeze cutting through the buildings. It is a huge contrast to how Ponyville usually is, at least form what I have seen in the past.

“Hello, anypony here?” I call out but am only met with even more silence. How they were able to not only go into hiding and me not being able to hear it amazes me and it shows me that the situation must have felt dire. “Come on now, it is not like I am queen Chrysalis!” I shout into the town to which nothing but silence replies. Sighing I turn and look towards Fluttershy and face palm realizing that this might be a little more difficult than I had previously thought. “I know you have never seen a human, but I am not a demon and just want to talk.” I shout before sitting down beside a tipped over cart and putting my head back and start to think. “Well now, this is going to be hard to do…if no pony ever even talks to me!” However before I am able to get too far into ranting to myself, I feel something press against my side and I turn to see Fluttershy has sat down beside me, a look of bewilderment on her face. Though she is just acting normal, I start to heat up slightly and I can’t help but break out in a light blush as she adjusts herself so her side is completely pressed against mine making me instantly cool down and turn my frown into a smile.

“You know, t-the last time s-somepony who we did not understand came to town, this was the same reaction so don’t feel like a black sheep.” This causes me to laugh because I can remember the exact time that she was referencing and now I feel I need a hood and some robes and it might be kinda like a repeat of the situation.

”Yea I know, but I am a human not a zebra.” I say chuckling and looking up at the sky. That is when I notice something interesting about the sun. It is glowing brighter than what I had seen previously, making my skin heat up very rapidly to which I have to cover my forehead. Then something instantly come to my mind and a question comes out without me even having to think of it. “Was there something big going on today?” Fluttershy again adjust herself and then shoots up off of me and gasps.

“Oh I can’t believe I forgot to tell you that Princess Celestia was going to be here today!” She says while cutting off my gaze from the sky. However I am too lost in awe at the possible chance to meet Celestia that I ignore her and instantly get to my feet and shout as loud as I can.

“Celestia, I know your hear, come on out I am dying to meet you and the rest of Fluttershy’s friends!” I shout happily as loud as I can and then eagerly await a reply. However after a few moments of silence pass and nothing happens, my face breaks into a frown and I sit back down and face palm again. That is when a loud horn starts to play a heavenly melody, causing me to instantly look around cautiously.

“That is the horn of Celestia!” She says as the horn starts to play a melody of royal music. I am so lost in the music that I barely notice a few sparkles of light start to appear about 20 feet in front of us. When I finally figure out what is going on, in a flash I get to my feet and fist pump the air before turning back to face one of the buildings to my left.

“Well now at least somepony is not afraid of me!” I say yelling loudly to which no pony responds and I just shrug and turn back to face the shimmers of light. Thought that would work, guess not. The music and the light has both quickly intensified after my little outburst and I can see the outline of a rather tall pony start to form as my face starts to sweat with anticipation. That is when I feel a soft hoof rest against the outside of my hand and instantly I turn my head to see Fluttershy trying to put on a small smile and I smile back at her and release my hand from her hoof and return my focus to the light and place my hand up to my face. The light intensity has become so strong that I can only few parts of it through my fingers and even then I am having to squint hard to keep watching.

As the seconds pass, the light continues to get even brighter and I have to completely shut my eyes and turn my head away just to feel as though my eyes were not cooking. Then a sudden blast of hot air originates from in front of me and the intense light and heat instantly die away as the surrounding air cools off and starts to return to its normal temperature. Sensing that it was alright to open my eyes, I slowly pull my hand down from my face and open my eyes while craning my head to where the light was just present and gasp in amazement. Standing 20 feet in front of me is a massive white pony with a light green, pink, ocean green, pink and blue mane and tail that seem to be waving back and forth despite the total absence of wind. Her massive horn is glowing a fierce orange and her wings are spread out to their full length, to what I can estimate to be greater than 9 feet across.

A gold crown gently sits on top of her head and a gold band runs around her connecting in the center of her chest with a purple diamond. She seems to be a good 2 to three inches taller than me, making me have to look slightly up to see her face. Both her eyes irises are a bright purple and seem to be glowing slightly as if radiating sunlight. They seem to convey a calm but unrelenting fury, a trait of how the sun can normally be. Her facial expression shows both confusion and determination, as if I am dangerous then she will tear me apart.
“Holy…shit!” This prolonged statement seems to catch her attention and she immediately looks to me, causing me to blush slightly. Even if she might want to tear me apart, it cannot stop me from looking at her beautiful form. However, Fluttershy must have noticed because she touches my hand and I shake myself out of my daydream. “Thanks, I needed that.” I say smiling to Fluttershy and quickly running a hand through her mane. This causes Celestia to slightly reduce her dangerous look on her face and her horn starts to grow less bright. Taking this as a good sigh I quickly decide that if anytime was good to speak it would be now that she seems to be at least possibly seeing me as not a threat. “Hello Celestia, it is great to finally meet you.” As soon as I say this a look of surprise comes across her face and she cocks her head to the side while eyeing me suspiciously.

“How do you know my name?” That is when I immediately go to answer but then a bright idea crosses my mind and I put on a huge smile. Let’s test the waters.

“Well, my friend Fluttershy here told me of you and the rest of her friends, so I went to town to get familiar with them, but then Glide and Candor thought me a demon and scared the entire town and now everypony thinks I am a demon, but I assure you I am not a demon.” I say calmly as Fluttershy steps up from behind me and stands confidentially at my side.

“Yes princess, he never captured me, but he and his T rex found me last night and I took them in.” As soon as she says that Celestia looks at me funny and I smile nervously and take a step backwards. Fuck!

“You have a T rex, how is that possible, they are one of the fiercest predators in Equestria.” She says before eyeing me suspiciously to which I look over to Fluttershy and mouth ‘not another word.’ But Fluttershy must not have seen me because she continues to openly speak to Celestia about me, while making sure to point to me for emphasis.

“But as to what he is, he says he is a human and claims to be something called Dragonborn.” As soon as she says this I face palm and turn back around to face the princess who now has a strange look about her face and a slight hint of bewilderment flashes in her eyes.

“A human… I may have read something on them before, but what is a Dragonborn because you certainly don’t look like a dragon.” She says while pointing to where a dragon’s tail and wings should be causing me to chuckle.

“I know that I don’t look like a dragon but that is because what makes me Dragonborn is not my appearance, but my ability.” I say warmly while beaming, happy of the abilities that I possess.

“What ability do you have, can you use magic?” I instantly chuckle a little louder and grow my smile.

“No not exactly, I use something far older and way more powerful than magic.” I say confidently, making Celestia look to both of us in confusion and wonder. “What is this magic like power called?” She says with a hint of skepticism, reminding me that I was still not in the clear and needed to continue to not slack in answering the questions.“It is called the power of the thuum, or power of the shout or voice in our tongue, the thuum is certain dragon words that when spoke loudly or softly depending on the thuum, can produce various powerful affects.” I say easily causing Celestia to cast me looks of wonder and confusion.

“This concept is interesting and unheard of…may I have a demonstration?” Celestia says while smiling a straight smile and blushing slightly as if she was really looking forward to seeing the thuum at work with her very eyes. My mind is conflicted on if I should actually show the thuum to her because if I do then I risk scaring everypony even more, but if I don’t then she thinks I am a joke and crazy on top of that. So I’m fucked if I do and fucked if I don’t, oh well at least I don’t have to be this big mystery anymore and I think I know the perfect shout for right now.

“Hey Fluttershy do your friends like to fly?” I ask while turning my head to look her way and see that she is smiling a little and is blushing.

“Y-yea h-how come?” She says nervously making me smile even greater and I instantly look at Celestia with a look of wonder.

“Do you like to fly Celestia?” This causes a look of bewilderment to cross her face and instantly a look of wonder crosses her eyes and she breaks out into a huge smile while nodding her head. That is when another idea in my head to as how I am going to get the rest of Ponyville to like me and instantly I sigh in warmness and look to Fluttershy.

“Can you please get everypony to come outside and come to edge of town, because I have something grand for all of Ponyville to see!” I say with great enthusiasm. The fire then must have ignited somewhere because suddenly Pinkie Pie burst through the doors of sugarcube corner and without a second delay sprints straight up to me with a huge smile. Her bright pink coat and curly pink tail gently bounding along with her is absolutely beautiful, along with her bright blue eyes and wide black pupils that seem to shine with a self-made sparkle that seem to radiate her joyous and playful nature to all those who look into them. All and all she is beautiful, a wild beautiful mare who made me want to reach out and just give her a big hug.

“Hey you say your going do something amazing I love amazing it is my everyday now who are you are you new because I have never seen you before and I know everypony in Ponyville and you don’t look like a pony who are you what are you can you speak are-“I interrupt her by placing a hand up to her mouth.

“It’s nice to meet you Pinkie Pie, now I can tell you want to have fun right.” I say to which she nods her head rapidly.

“Good then go and get your friends and I will show you more fun you have ever had!” As soon as I say this I see her eyes start to literally spin in her head and then in a flash she zips back to sugarcube corner and I smile lightly and turn back to face both Celestia and Fluttershy while humming in delight.

“S-so Chris w-what are y-you g-g-going to do that involves flying?” Fluttershy shyly asks me while Celestia gets closer to me in anticipation.

“I am going to call dragons and then myself and your friends are going to ride them!” This instantly causes Celestia mouth to fall open and Fluttershy to start whimpering slightly as the reality of what I just said starts to set in.

“How can you possible do that?” She exclaims while looking at me if I had just promised her the world. However noticing that Fluttershy has started to cry slightly, I reach an arm over to her and put an arm around her and pull her head to my chest.
“You’ll see and I guarantee you that when all said and done, you will want to know everything there is to know about the thuum.” I say winking at her causing her to blush and look away from me. However, I quickly refocus my attention on Fluttershy and try to comfort the wrecked mare. “Hey, I know you are scared of dragons, but don’t worry, these dragons I am calling are friends of mine and they may look scary but they are really nice, trust me.” I say lifting her eyes to mine and wiping them out with my thumb while smiling brightly and holding her tightly. She holds my gaze and then after a few seconds the tears cease and her expression lightens slightly, but she continues to hold her shy nature.

“O-okay b-but I want to ride…w-with you if you don’t mind.” She says timidly instantly warming my heart and I quickly reply.

“ABSOLUTLY!” I reply eagerly. This makes her open her eyes slightly and blush before she hugs me and whispers a thank you in my ear. Knowing that my friend is content, I look up to Celestia to see that she has turned around from me and is shouting to the other ponies to come out.

“Don’t worry he is not a demon, he is a human and he wants to show us something absolutely amazing, so come on out!” As she continues to shout, ponies start slowly exiting the various buildings and start to from up behind the princess, various looks of fear and curiosity plastered on their faces. That is when I catch a glimpse of Celestia’s muscular plot and instantly my face starts to heat up. Having not gotten used to the fact that they don’t really wear clothes, I find that while my human side is telling me it is normal, my animal side seems all the more interested in taking the sight in. I lick my lips slightly and start to think about what it could feel like to be inside her, to feel her strong muscles against my body, feeling every pulse and contraction race through me like live electricity. However, my fantasy is cut short by Fluttershy nudging me on my shoulder and I shake myself out of my animal state and back to reality.

“What’s up?” I say quietly.

“Well, everypony is hear and they are all looking at you.”

“Huh?” I say as I look past Celestia and see that every eye in Ponyville has fallen onto me and instantly I go into public speaking mode and stand up tall and put on a big smile.

“Princess, with your permission I would like to say something before the show starts.” With this Celestia turns around and nods her head before gently walking over next to me and standing proudly. Taking this as the green light, I clear my throat and start to speak.

“Ladies and gentlecolts, I know that I am an unfamiliar to you and that can cause some nervousness about what I actually am, but I am here to tell you that you have nothing to fear from me and I am looking forward to getting to know you all in due time.” However with your princess’s permission, I have been given the honor of showing you all something that no pony has ever before seen, something that is very special to me and me alone in gift to my new home of Equestria. It is my way of paying tribute to all those out there that I have and in the future, will call friends.” I hope that after this, you will invite me into the community with open arms and will not hide from me because it does hurt me that you hide from me.” Now without further ado, I ask that everypony come to the outskirts of town and be prepared to be amazed at the wonders of the Dragonborn!” As soon as I finish my last statement, murmuring breaks out in the crowd, but is quickly quelled by Celestia raising a hoof. “Alright then, everypony follow me for a celebration of a life time!” I say as both Celestia and Fluttershy motion to the crowd and they start to follow them at a brisk pace. Knowing that the first part was done, I quickly head in front of Celestia and then start to think of what needs to be done. “Alduin, if you can hear me then tell me if Odaviing, Abaddon and Parthanaxx are in Skuldafin.” As the seconds tick by, I start to get nervous and a thin line of sweat forms on my brow, but after what feels like an eternity, I can hear the voice of Alduin respond.

“Yes thuri, would you like me to let them know you might need them?” Sighing in relief, I quickly wipe the seat from my forehead and quickly respond.

“Tell them I need them to come to my voice through the portal.”

“It shall be done.” Then Alduin goes quiet and I quickly refocus on the task ahead and notice that we are now standing outside of Ponyville and the whole crowed is now looking at me with expectant eyes and I decide to finally tell them what it is I am going to do.

“Okay, now one question before we start, who here in Ponyville has ever seen or heard of dragons?” That really gets the ball rolling in the crowed as murmurs of confusion and nods of heads start immediately popping up to which I start to feel even more confident in my head. After a minute or two Celestia quiets the crowd and I continue. ”What if I told you, that I have the ability to call and ride dragons?!” The entire crowed now starts to look at me funny and various sounds of disbelief start to circulate around me.

“Ha, I call immediate bullshit on that claim!” One voice says from the crowd and instantly I turn to see Rainbow Dash standing near the front with the other mane 6 lined up in a line. Her cyan blue coat and rainbow mane and tail along with her bright purple eyes seem to glow a bright color, as if her pride was radiating from within and this made her appear powerful and really beautiful, causing me to blush slightly from looking at her. That is when Twilight decides to speak up and stop laughing for a second.

“Dragons can’t be rode, they are naturally free creatures and are very dangerous.” Then I look to her back and spot Spike trying desperately not to fall off her while rolling around laughing. This distracts me from Rainbow and I immediately turn to face her. Her light purple coat is also glowing, but this is not from the inside but from the setting sun reflecting off it. Her eyes are a beautiful shade of purple, similar to her coat and her face is formed into a skeptical smile, but I still find myself blushing and trying to focus on the task at hand.

“Really…you might want to get your head looked at.” Rarity says while laughing but at the same time blushing while looking at me. Rarity looks the exact same as she did from the show, with a dark blue mane and tail with a bright white coat that could only be rivaled by Celestia’s herself. Her sapphire blue eyes seem to also glow in the sun and despite having her insult me, I still blush when I look at her and revel in the immense beauty. However when I look to Pinkie Pie I notice that she is not laughing and is skipping around in place aimlessly, earning an inside laugh. “Well at least someone might believe me.” However the rest of gang laughing is making me start to get a little impatient and quickly I fire back at them.

“Okay then Rainbow, Twilight and Rarity prepare to have your minds blown and when I do then you are each going to have to do anything I ask.” A collected gasp from the group shows that I must have hit a nerve and they all look to me with wild eyes.

“How do you know are names?” They all ask in unison to which I smile and just crack my knuckles.

“The exact same way that I am about to call dragons, so are you in? After a few seconds of silence from them, Rainbow speaks up in a daring voice.

“You’re on, can’t wait to see the look on your face when your ass loses.” Taking that as confirmation I quickly turn away from them and stare up at the sky.

“Alright then, here we go, I must warn you, this may be loud so if you scare easy then cover your ears.” I shout to the crowd as I start to increase the length of my breaths. After a few seconds of deep breathing I can feel energy start to collect inside of me and I let that energy build up inside of my stomach. The entire crowed has now gone completely silent and this makes my concentration even better and before long I can feel the energy inside me has reaches its peak. Then I turn slightly and wink to the group of ponies before quickly turning my head back to the sky and taking one last deep breath, I shout. “Do Va Zul!” (Call dragons!) A bright flash of light flashes briefly outside my mouth and then fades as my voice goes echoing off the landscape, until it is out of ear range and I can hear several ohhs and ahhs behind me and a few slight hoof beets of applause, but one voice catches me by surprise, the voice of Twilight.

“What was that, you shouted and a flash of light appeared from your mouth!” I turn slightly and see that not only does Twilight have a stunned look on her face, but almost all the ponies have an identical look, except for Rainbow Dash who appears not impressed and Pinkie Pie who is off in her own world.

“I will explain it later, and that was nothing, I promise that.” I say confidently while giving the mare a wink of encouragement to which she beams and slightly blushes before looking down at the ground in front of her. Knowing that she was probably not used to the attention, I turn back to the sky in front of me and chuckle inwardly to myself. “I have a feeling that I am going to fast become her friend. Looking up to the sky I can see that it must be in the later part of the day because the sun is starting its downward accent and from that I can tell that I am fast running out of time and I start to sweat a little bit.

...

A little bit of time passes and not a single tell-tale sign that there are any dragons around presents itself and I start to panic. The crowed is now starting to murmur again and I can hear talk of ponies saying I am crazy and that this was a total waste of time and some have even started to leave and walk back to Ponyville. “Shit, where are you?” I shout aloud in my head while giving passing glances to Celestia and Fluttershy who are looking at me with worried expressions and I can see some doubt in Celestia’s eyes.

“Looking to them won’t gain back the valuable time you are losing right now.” Rarity says plainly and I turn my head to see that Rarity is standing impatiently beside Rainbow Dash and is looking at me with bored eyes.

“It might take them a second or two, they have to travel a ways to get here!” I say assertively to which she laughs and blushes at me.

“Oh darling, it has certainly been more than a second or two.” She says while her eyes travel up and down me, giving the appearance that she was searching for something. Knowing that it might pass the time, I decide to just give in and turn back around to face the sky. Not a single sound of a roar or wing flap, just the birds from the surrounding landscape and as I am about to give up on the whole endeavor, a faint sound of a wing flap catches my ear and instantly I spring to life.

“HEY THERE COMING!” I shout to the crowed to which some of them stop and turn back around to face me.

“C-Chris at least y-you tried, but e-everypony is tired an-and they want to go home.” Fluttershy says, but I continue to keep my eyes on the sky and look. That is when I also hear the faint sound of a dragon bellowing in the distance and turn back to Celestia and point to the sky.

“You can’t hear that?” I ask her and she immediately puts her ear to the sky and starts to listen. Then another faint flap and cry of a dragon rings out and Celestia instantly looks at me with a stunned look on her face and I nod in confirmation of what she had just heard.

“Everypony, come back the dragons are coming!” She says happily as a very loud cry echoes across the landscape and instantly I can hear hoof steps coming back to the group and murmurs of anxiety start to ripple through the crowed. Knowing by the last sound off that they must be getting close by now, I then start sweeping my head and looking for the dragons to appear in the sky. The wing flaps and roars continue to grow louder as the seconds go by and my confidence along with it, but I can sense that some ponies are starting to get worried as mummers start to form within the crowd behind me. That is when both Fluttershy and Celestia step up beside me and start to look towards the sky with me.

“There they are!” A voice calls out in the crowed to which I instantly start to sweep my head, but stop about halfway through and smile. Just cresting the top of a very tall mountain some distance away are three massive dragons, there scales shining in the light and flying in formation. Instantly I start to wave my hands in the air and I can see that one by one they all start to take notice of me and then dive down slightly before leveling out and continuing to rapidly advance towards my position. Knowing that I had succeeded I turned to the group of ponies and then smile a wicked but kind smile.

“Well, well, well it looks like I won, ready for your task?” I say to which all the ponies bow their heads and sigh.

“Yes, since you have done the impossible then what is it that you want us to do?” Twilight says while Rainbow Dash glares at me from her bowed position and I just laugh slightly.

“Nothing at all, just enjoy your first ride on a dragon.” I say happily, causing all of them to shoot up from their bowed position and gasp.

“WHAT?!” they all say in unison and I nod my head gently and smile to which they all smile and look at me with wide but confused eyes.

“I don’t get it, we doubted you and even said ten to one you were wrong and even insulted you, how can you just forgive us like that?” Rainbow Dash asks me.

“Yea, aren’t you at least a little mad?” Twilight asks skeptically to which I just shake my head.

“No, how can I be mad at you, what I said sounded farfetched and impossible so you do what everything is programmed to do…be skeptical, and as for you Rainbow it is just your nature to be cocky and call everypony out, but don’t worry I like that.” I say cooly. Instantly I can see Rainbow Dash’s face turn a slight shade of red and then look down to her hooves and I smile and turn back around to see that the dragons are now almost to me. Knowing that soon all of Ponyville would revel in my power, I turn to see if Fluttershy is still feeling okay and notice that Fluttershy is no longer standing beside me. At first I think she has ran away, but that is when I feel a warm presence behind me and turn my head slightly and see her hiding behind me with her head pressed against my back crying. So in an effort to calm her nerves I place a hand on the top of her head and gently rub a circle in her mane, to which her crying lessens and I smile in victory and then turn to see what shape Celestia is in and what I see is confusing. She is studying me intensely, with eyes that seem to be off adrift in imagination, a slight red blush hanging from her face and a deep smile seems to be present on her face, as if she was seeing something that made her extremely happy. What the hell? “Hey Celestia?!” I shout, causing her to shake her head back and forth and then look down to her hooves while her blush grows in intensity.

Trying to ignore the whole ‘every mare likes me’ thought, I quickly pull both of my hands in the air and wave down the massive dragons who are now only 100 yards from my position and they take a few more flaps and glide until they are hovering about 5 feet in front of me, with looks of both confusion and eagerness to see me once more.

“Thuri, Nii lost kosaan ful lingrah, vir los hi? (Overlord, It has been so long, how are you?) Instantly I smile brightly and then turn back to look at the stunned ponies and laugh slightly.

“Odaviing, Abaddon, Parthanaxx nii los lot wah koraav hi einzuk.” (Odaviing, Abaddon, and Parthanaxx it is great to see you again.) I say while motioning for them to land and they quickly do so with a loud BANG, causing some of the ponies to gasp and other to start murmuring to each other. However I choose to ignore them and just continue to both speak to the dragons and rub a nervous Fluttershy.

“Thuri, we heard your call and came, but what is this land and why is it full of horses?” Parthanaxx say off to my right looking over my shoulder at Fluttershy. This causes me to cringe slightly and scrunch my eyes slightly as a feeling of embarrassment roles over me, as Odaviing had just unintentially called the ponies whores. “Ponies, not horses…ponies.” I say while looking over to Celestia and smiling nervously to which she nods her head and I slightly exhale in relief and then turn back to face Odaviing.

“Oh I understand, this must be Equestria…the thuum gave us knowledge of this world, but most of it was lost through the generations.” Abaddon says while looking over to the crowd of ponies and then looks back to me. Taking this as a time to introduce them to my newest friends I turn and wave Celestia and the others over while gently rubbing Fluttershy’s sides.

“Hey it’s alright, don’t worry they are not going to hurt you.” I say while gently prying her off me and getting her to slowly trout up beside me. Her crying is making it very hard to do, deep down I am breaking slightly and that is when I see another hoof reach up and gently touch my hand and start to push with me, making some of my stress immediately leave from me. That is when I look up to see no other than Twilight and Rarity looking at Fluttershy and me with concerned expressions and I instantly mouth a silent ‘thank you’ to which both of them smile slightly and blush, making me blush at the same time. With are combined force we are eventually able to maneuver her to my side and that is when Celestia miraculously shows up beside me and stands tall and confident, something that seems to be all too common for those who have power.

“Dragons I would like you all to meet Celestia, co ruler of Equestria and mover of the sun.” I say flipping my hand over to her and she bows slightly and they reciprocate the bow by lowering their heads to the ground.

“It is a true honor to meet such unusual dragons, if only the rest of them could be like you.” This causes me to burst out laughing but I immediately stop when Parthanaxx gives me an evil look, but still chuckle to myself under my breath.

“Thank you very much Princess Celestia, we are honored you let us be here by are Thuri’s side and for that you have my eternal gratitude.” Parthanaxx says before Abaddon cuts in.

“Who is the other one beside you?” Abaddon says while Odaviing leans his head down and gets mere inches from the frightened mare who’s crying and whimpering start to get even more intense, but immediately the others place hooves on her back and I slowly stroke the top of her head to try to calm her down.

“Oh this here is Fluttershy and she is kind of scared of dragons.” I say while motioning Odaviing to move his head back some, which he does and then Parthanaxx speaks in a gentle tone, well gentle for a dragon.

“We do not mean to scare, I am sorry if we cause despair to you Fluttershy if you wish we can leave.” But as soon as she says this, Fluttershy lightly speaks up.

“N-no…it’s…o-okay, I j-just scare easily.” She says while trying to lift her head to look at the dragons. “I-it is n-nice to m-m-meet you.” Instantly I feel a whole lot better that she was at least able to speak to them and I look at her with a smile while giving her head an even stronger rub to which I can hear her whinny slightly through her cries and I take this as a good sigh and continue to introduce the rest of the ponies.

“These are my other new friends, Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity.” I say enthusiastically as the dragons turn their heads to look at the group behind me and bow their heads slightly.

“Any friends of Thuri are friends of ours and thus so we shall welcome you with open wings.” Odaviing says respectfully, causing Rarity to gasp in shock and then approach the dragons.

“Oh such gentledragons, Chris these are positively the best dragons I have ever met, I simply must know where you got them!” She exclaims while beaming at Odaviing to which I just sigh and approach Odaviing.

“You can’t just get dragons, in order to forge this kind of relationship, let’s just say it is an exclusive to only me, but never mind that let’s get to flying everypony!” I say while motioning to Fluttershy who then approaches me and then stands beside me. “You said you wanted to ride with me right?” I say lightly while motioning to Odaviing who then looks over to me and says in a calm voice.

“Hail Thuri, we shall fly together along with all your new found friends that wish to.” Taking that as a sign of approval, I step over near Odaviing’s head and he lowers to the ground and I throw my legs over his neck and sit down while tapping a space a little ways behind me. Fluttershy then cautiously steps up to the dragon head and easily climbs in behind me, blushing intensely.

“Well then, lets role!” I say passionately causing the rest of the ponies to look at me with confused looks.

“Are you sure this is a good idea?” Twilight says while looking at Parthanaxx skeptically and I immediately nod my head.

“I promise that nothing will happen, trust me and if for some reason you are scared, then just let me know and you can either land or come and ride with me.” I say smiling at the unicorn causing her to blush slightly and approach Parthanaxx to which he lowers his head and she gently climbs up and sits down in a small rift in between his spikes while smiling slightly.

“Oh this is going to be super-duper great fun I just know it!” Pinkie exclaims before bounding over to Abaddon and jumping up onto the dragon’s neck without him even having to bend down and let her on. This action is harmless enough but seems to causes a slight deflated sigh to come from Rarity and I instantly look over to her with a concerned look on my face.

“What’s wrong Rarity?” I say while smiling trying to get her back to her normal, to only deflate seeing her go even further into her sad state.

“Well, I was actually interested in riding with you, but I see that Fluttershy has already claimed that title.” Now for sure knowing what had suddenly brought the unicorn down, I instantly laugh slightly and then motion to a spot in front of me.

“No not at all, I got room come on over.” This instantly catapults Rarity out of her sad state and a big smile along with a huge blush to crawl onto her face and she quickly yet gracefully walks over to the dragon and he lowers his head and I offer my hand down to her which she immediately places a hoof in my palm and I close it and gently pull her up to me. She is extremely light and I have no difficulty in pulling her up and sitting her in front of me. After a second of her getting adjusted to sitting upright she turns around to me with another slight blush on her face.

“Oh such a gentlecolt, I like that.” She says batting her eyes at me in a flirtatious way and I instantly blush and then smile, but as soon as it comes it leaves as an unknown sense of hostile invisible energy forms over the area making me tense up slightly. For some strange reason my eyes instantly flash to Celestia and what I see surprises me. Her eyes at first seem to be annoyed but upon further inspection reveal their true nature. Underneath her eyes lies a slight fire inside them in what I can only guess to be anger as she looks to Rarity with a determined expression and a slightly raised eyebrow. Man if looks could kill then I think Rarity would be dead right now. However, this does not dissipate the energy and as if I instinctively knew where to look next, I turn and face Twilight. She has the same look in her eyes as Celestia, but the difference is that her mouth seems to be drawn into a slight frown and her eyes are furrowed tight, as if she was containing a huge rage.

However, her eyes then quickly trail over to me and when she sees me looking she instantly drops the look and smiles slightly to me and I manage a small smile in return. The cloud of hostility then lessens slightly, but does not dissipate and once more on instinct I turn to face Rainbow Dash and see that she is now hovering slightly above the dragons and the look on her face is absolutely scary. Her eyes seem to be glowing with annoyance and I can see her baring her teeth slightly in an animalistic way. Her body posture is slightly expanded and her tail is waving below her in an irritated fashion while staring daggers at Rarity. Never mind dead, if looks could kill then Rarity would be obliterated right now! After looking at her for a minute, she looks over to me but continues to hold her position but in a slightly less angered state. This sets something off in my head that if we did not get going soon, then we may have a three way slug fest going on with Rarity being the target, so I instantly clear my throat and turn to Fluttershy.

“Are you ready?” Fluttershy gives me a slight nod and then puts her front legs around me and holds me tight and I immediately turn to Celestia and motion for her to take to the skies. Understanding me, she quickly spreads her wings and with a few hard flaps, takes off and hovers over us all and then turns to face the audience of ponies.

“I now give you the riding of the dragons!” She says loudly which causes the crowed to erupt into cheer and as soon she does this turns to me and nods to me and I turn in the direction of the crowd.

“Alok Dovah!” (Rise Dragons!) I say loudly to which all the dragons grunt and then loudly reply.

“Vos bo!” (Let’s go!) They all shout in unison and then as customary, Odaviing starts to flap his wings and rise into the sky. Instantly, the lurch upward rocks Fluttershy and she eeps and clamps down on me and Rarity semi fakes a lean back and crashes into my front side, which causes me to grunt slightly and readjust my arm to push her back up to her raised position. Rarity blushes from the feeling of my hand in the middle of her back and then smiles slightly while flexing her rather strong muscles. Because of my rather inexperience with handling girls, this causes electric signals to course up from my hand and I can start to feel my breathing get slightly heavier as I continue to try and push up what was supposed to be a light pony. It was not that she was heavy, but that for some reason my primal body had simply not wanted her to sit up. It wanted to continue to feel its way around those powerful muscles and to feel every inch of them in action, and then some more. Wanting to feel more and more, I slowly start to reach my other hand up to her side, a feeling of the beginning of loss of control a thought in my mind.

“Hey Rarity, are you okay?” Fluttershy says quietly behind me, causing me to shake my head slightly and refocus, losing the electric feeling and instantly I push her upright and then refocus on directing the dragons. Parthanaxx has now started to flap and rise off the ground and with it Twilights emotions explode and a look of pure excitement comes on her face making me smile and then turn to Abaddon. He like Parthanaxx has just lifted off the ground and just as with Twilight, Pinkie Pie has a huge smile on her face and she is literally twitching with anticipation.

“This is the most super-duper thing I have ever done I can’t believe that somepony can do this I just wonder what to next!” I quickly laugh and then look down to the ground to find that both Celestia and Rainbow Dash have taken to the sky and are now about to come up alongside my hovering dragon and I decide to wait for the other two mares so I can tell them what I now have in mind.

“Hold hear dragons and wait for my instruction!” I shout to which they all stop in there ascent and then proceed to hover and immediately they both appear to my left and I quickly start to speak. “Okay, one thing before I start, what do you all think of fire?” This question seems to all register with them instantly and I can see a big smile spread across Celestia’s face and when I do a quick survey of the others I find they have a similar look, minus Fluttershy of course whose eyes only grow and then tightens down her grip on me. Of course Fluttershy lives up to her name sake! Shaking the thought out of my head, I then quickly smile and wink at both Celestia and Rainbow Dash and then quickly turn my head back to the center. “Kuz wah stin bod.” (Take to free flight.)

As soon as I say this, the dragons roar slightly and then slowly start to fan out from each other. Abaddon flies off to the right with Pinkie steady talking about parties and Parthanaxx flies off to the left while Twilight starts to strike up a lively conversation with Parthanaxx about the art of magic, something that is a personal favorite of his. That leaves just myself, Fluttershy, Rarity Celestia and Rainbow Dash hovering in midair, not knowing exactly what to do. Well just hovering is not going to cut it. That is when I remember that Rainbow Dash can do the sonic rainboom and from this small spark of memory, a great plan starts to form in my head and instantly I look over to Rainbow Dash. “Hey Dash, you up for some serious flying?” Instantly the mares face lights up and a look of determination crosses her face.

“Oh yea, what do you have in mind!?” My spark within me now grows into a bright glowing fire and I look up to the sky above me.

“Well, if you would allow, I would like to show off the dragon fire thuum.” I say quickly looking back over to Celestia. This seems to take her aback for a few seconds, but she sighs and smiles at me.

“I think it is a great idea, just make sure it is away from the ground, no need to scare somepony.” She says with great enthusiasm to which I turn around and face Fluttershy.

“Okay, I promise that I will take this slow…are you alright with going up higher?” I ask gently while stroking her mane and smiling brightly. At first I believe that she might not have heard me because she continues to stay glued to me and not look up at me, so I start to repeat myself.

“Do you want to-.” Fluttershy’s voice cuts me off about mid-sentence with a quiet response.

“P-please do, d-don’t mind me.” I then sigh and turn back around to face Rainbow and Celestia and then smile.

“Alright then, let’s do this.” I say while placing my hands on Rarity’s sides and she instantly turns her head around with a blush. “Hold on tight.” I say before taking a breath in and giving Odaviing a kick in the side of the neck to which he roars and then rapidly flaps his wings, causing us to rise up fast. This sudden movement causes Fluttershy to eep and grab my tighter and for Rarity to stumble slightly, causing me to have to stabilize her with my hands while still trying to command the dragon on what to do. “Go into free flight Odaviing, just so you can get used to flying with more than one passanger on your back.” I say while looking over to see Celestia and Rainbow Dash ascending beside me, both of them with looks of determination and readiness on their faces. “I think we should just fly for now, then for the finale we play with fire so to speak.”

They both slowly nod their heads, but something once again seems off about them. They both seem to have a somewhat annoyed expression on their faces and at first I don’t know what it is that may have upset them, so I just smile nervously and my eyes back and forth from the two of them until I actually follow their estimated line of sight and find that they’re looking at Rarity once more. “What is the problem this time?” I think to myself as I check to see what they could be possible worried about and I slightly remove my hand from Rarity and think for a second and that is when something clicks inside my confused autistic mind. “I think she may be enjoying the contact of my hand a little too much!” I shout to myself while gently removing my other hand. At the removal of my other hand, Rarity sits up straight but not before giving a soft and quiet moan of disappointment and then I decide to let the serenity of the situation fill me and I look over the side of the dragon.

We are circling at roughly 250 feet above the crowed and from hear they all appear to be rather small, but even then I could still hear cheering and stomping from down below, indicating that my plan was working. The cool air is running through my hair and the warm light of the setting sun hits my skin, making me feel free from all the troubles of my day. I give a contented sigh and then turn to look at the vast range of mountains, painted in a majestic purple and blue by the light of the setting sun. “It is great to finally be home.” I say to myself while drawing a deep breath and then turning back to Celestia. “This place is even more beautiful than I had seen through the thuum, I am truly awed are you sure this is not Heaven?” I say laughing slightly to which Celestia blushes slightly and then flaps her wings a few more times until she is directly across from me.

“Equestria is a truly wonderful place, I am glad that you feel so welcomed to my kingdom.” She says in a heartfelt manor before Rainbow Dash quickly interrupts.

“Yea, yea you say that now, but trust me it can get old fast.” Her voice is standoffish and crude, making me instantly turn my head to her with a look of confusion.

“How can you say that, this place is the best I have ever seen!” I say with a hint of anger present in my voice and she just furrows her brows and smiles.

“You will see, trust me!” She says matter of factly and then in a flash, zooms right past me heading towards Abaddon and Pinkie Pie. Shrugging it off, I quickly turn back to the center and just sigh. Then I just stare off into the horizon and close my eyes, letting the serenity take me in and for me not to let the cyan blue mare get me down.

...

After about an hour of flying, the sun has started to set and I can sense that the everypony, including the dragons were starting to tire and so I decide that the grand finale is past due and so I take an inhale of breathe before yelling very loudly.
“Dovah buld vok!” (Dragons form up!) This echoes through the surrounding sky and Rarity jumps up slightly and Fluttershy tightens her grip on me while Celestia nearly loses her flight and drops slightly before repositioning herself next to Odaviing. A sly smile forms on my face and I can’t help but let out a small chuckle. “Sorry about that.” I say quickly before being jumped by Rarity.
“You nearly caused me to jump off the dragon!” She says angrily to which I turn around and smile gently and intentionally brush a piece of her mane out of her face.

“I am sorry…I will give warning next time.” Instantly a huge blush grows on her face and she coos slightly and smiles.
“Apology accepted.” She says with a hint of lust in her voice and I smile to myself and turn back to look for the other dragons. “Haha got ya!” I think to myself while smiling and giving myself a metaphoric pat on the back. After a few seconds, Abaddon and Parthanaxx appear from inside a cloud with Twilight and Pinkie Pie on their backs, looks of amazement and wonder still fresh on their faces. Upon seeing me, the dragons then fly over to my position and take their places making sure to fly in a three wide formation with enough space in between for a pony to fit.

“Thuri, you called?” Abaddon says before Pinkie Pie gets excited and start to speak.

“Oh that was some of the most fun that I have ever had it is so great to get to fly without a big balloon and hey Chris this some true fantastical fun do you like parties because I love parties!” Her voice is going a million miles a minute and it is kind of hard to keep up, but after a minute or two she quiets down and smiles a huge smile and beams at me.

“I am glad you liked it!” I say with enthusiasm and then turn to face Twilight who is looking at me with a slightly less intense smile and with a slight blush present on her face.

“This has been amazing, Parthanaxx here knows his stuff about magic and has even given me a few spells to try.” Knowing that she is already excited, I smile widely and then laugh.

“Well, you have not seen anything yet, I made sure to save the best for last, and well that is if FIRE is what you consider the best thing!” I say loudly to which a blur followed by a rainbow flies straight by me and stops a quarter of the way back from Odaviing.

“Hell yea I like fire!” The excited voice of Rainbow Dash says before she quickly flies in front of me and hovers inches from my face with a wide eyes and a huge grin.

“Yep, I will now not only show you fire, but I will also show you the fire within myself as well!” This causes Rainbow to do a small backflip and then she quickly flies back over to where Twilight is and sets down behind her.

“And I got a front row seat!” She says energetically, making Twilight face hoof and role her eyes slightly. Taking this as the final straw I turn my head so I can see Fluttershy and then brush her cheek with my hand.

“Hey, I know you’re sacred but I think you might want to see this.” I say softly to which Fluttershy opens her eyes and rests her head on my shoulder.

“What is it?” She says softly and instantly I remove my hand from her cheek and smile warmly.

“A fire show, you ready to see?” For some strange reason after hearing this, Fluttershy grows a small smile and then looks me dead in the eyes, making me jump slightly.

“Sure Chris, just please don’t leave me alone on the dragon.” Her voice sounds happy, but in the back ground I can hear a slight hint of pleading in her voice and I gently place a hand on one of her hooves.

“No problem.” I say lowly with a loving voice, causing both her and myself to blush slightly while turn away from each other at the same time. However just as quickly as the moment happened the voice of Odaviing pulls me out of my state and I shake my head slightly. “What is it Odaviing?” The dragon then gently clears his voice and looks up slightly towards me.

“Do you have any commands for us Thuri?” Knowing that the time was fast approaching for us to actually pull off the last stunt I then motion for Celestia and Rainbow to fly ahead of us and they quickly do and I then lean down closer to Odaviing’s head.

“It is time to show the fire salute, is your thuum up to the task?!” I question loudly causing the dragon to roar loudly.
“Abaddon, Parthanaxx yol qiilaanzin!” (fire salute!) This makes the other dragons roar in response and they start sucking in massive breathes of air and instantly Twilight starts asking questions.

“What are they doing?” She yells over the loud sound of the dragons breathing heavily while I look forward towards Celestia and Rainbow Dash.

“They are getting ready to use their fire shouts, as soon as the sun sets completely behind the horizon, they and I are going to light up the sky with different colors of fire!” I say while waving Celestia and Rainbow Dash backwards. Upon Celestia seeing me, she smiles and then quickly drops back to beside me and Rainbow Dash upon seeing she is alone also drops back to beside Celestia and then immediately starts to talk.

“So when are we going to see some fire, not often I can see something as epic as myself.” She says with an over confident voice, making me slightly sigh.

“When the sun goes down, and not only them but me as well!” I say confidently back, causing Rarity to gasp and for Celestia to smile a bright smile.

“You can breathe fire, darling how many things can you do?!” Rarity says in amazement to which I just continue to scan the dragons and ponies, but smile lightly.

“Yep, and that is not even half of what I can do!” I say proudly while continuing to scan the surroundings and make sure that both pony and dragon are ready for one of the greatest displays of power and then look over to the sun. It is now almost completely set behind the horizon and I quickly start to take in deep breathes, feeling the thuum start to build up inside me. As I do this I quickly look back to Fluttershy and notice that she is looking at me with a nervous look but determined eyes and I smile slightly to her and wink before facing Celestia. “We are ready whenever you are.” Celestia quickly nods and then descends down below us and starts to speak to the crowed below.

“Ladies and gentlecolts, are new guest now would be greatly honored to show you another one of his remarkable gifts, in tribute to his new found home of Equestria…the fire salute of the Dragonborn!” As soon as I hear this and the slight roar of the crowed, I smile and then a look of determination crosses my face.

“Alright, I could not have said that better myself!” Now knowing that the time was drawing near, I now look side to side at the dragons. “Get into position!” I yell loudly to which the dragons roar and then break formation and start to increase their altitude and Odaviing then abruptly stops and hovers in midair. After a few seconds Parthanaxx and Abaddon stop about 100 feet above me and hover, while still taking in large breaths of air and then look to me in waiting. Seeing that everyone was in position, I then look to my side and notice Rainbow is rapidly flapping her wings and a look of curiosity has consumed her face. “You might want to grab onto one of the dragons, not sure your level of flight is going to be able to keep up with this.” This causes Rainbow’s face to contort in insult and she then flies right up to my face.

“I can handle myself, thank you very much!” She says angrily to which I chuckle slightly.

“Okay, but don’t say I did not warn you!” I say jokingly before focusing on my breath once more and further increase its heaviness. With a huff, Rainbow flies back over to her original position and then adverts her eyes from me with a pissed off expression. Knowing that she was going to be surprised, I just slightly chuckle and then look over to find that Celestia has joined beside her and I smile gently. “You might want to grab a dragon for this part, I don’t know if you will be able to keep up otherwise.” A puzzled look crosses Celestia’s face and she looks to me in question, but then quickly smiles and nods lightly.

“Okay, then I will ride with Parthanaxx, I promised Twilight that I would spend time with her today and I plan on keeping that promise.” She says excitedly. Knowing that arguing was futile, I smile and nod my head to which Celestia quickly bolts from her position and rises up towards Parthanaxx waving to Twilight as she ascended. When she reaches him, she gently sets down behind Twilight and gives her a warm smile before sticking her hoof in the air as what I could only assume to be a thumbs up to start. Knowing that all of this was finally coming together, I take one last deep breath of air and then look back and forth between the two dragons and the mares on top.

“Alright then, everypony…hold on tight this is going to be a little rough.” I shout to which Pinkie Pie pulls a seatbelt from who knows where and straps herself in and Twilight and Celestia’s horn starts to glow and then fade away and both give me another hoof up and I quickly assess Fluttershy to see she is now holding me extremely tight and for good measure, I put my arms around Rarity and hold her tight. Then I quickly take in a huge breath. “Begin the salute!”

As soon as I finish the last word, the dragons roar and then with a quick flap of the wings dive down at me full speed. Then Odaviing quickly flaps his wings and then shoots up towards them at breakneck speed, causing both Fluttershy and Rarity to scream slightly and me to jolt backwards and reposition myself so I do not fall off the dragon. The looks on the faces of the other mares tell of both fear and joy, except for Pinkie who has her hooves in the air and is screaming in joy as if this was a roller coaster ride. Laughing slightly at the pink mare, I refocus on the event at hand and can see that Parthanaxx and Abaddon are now no more than 100 feet away and they have kept their course towards us, making sure that they are still off to the left and right. That is when I feel Odaviing draw his head back slightly and then see that the other two have done the same, I hold my breath in anticipation and wait for the fun to start. After a half second, the wait is over as I can hear a few unreadable works in dragon come from Odaviing and then he jolts his head forward sending a stream of scorching fire straight in between the two dragons who respond by exhaling two massive streams of fire that rocket past me.

While the three are still exhaling fire, we quickly rocket by them, the wind coming off of them smacking me in the face making it hard to keep my eyes open. Odaviing quickly comes to a halt and hovers for a second before flying straight up and then diving down at a loop while giving another long fire shout. As we complete the loop and start to fly away in order to get the second angel, Abaddon comes souring through the circle and shoots a small trail of fire going through the bottom of the ring and then roars before rapidly climbing in altitude. Then he suddenly stops and gives another loud roar before diving straight down and exhaling another arch of fire. Quickly afterwards Parthanaxx comes rocketing past as Abaddon finishes the loop and shoots a stream of fire that connects with the arch. After they clear, Odaviing turns sharply and heads towards a blank space beside the arch and climbs straight up and then dives down and shoots another fire arch and then starts to climb again.

In a flash we recreate the same principle as the first time and then we split are separate ways. The whole sky is alive with the sounds of flapping wings, fire and smoke and after a minute it is hard for me to keep track of what is going on so I just relax and let the dragons continue their work.

After a few minutes of intense fire shouting, all the dragons reform into a three wide formation and then hover on the outside of all the marks and I quickly set myself in position for me to perform the last fire shout, because I only had a limited time until the streaks would fade from the sky. “Hey, Rarity do you mind climbing on board with Pinkie I can’t breathe fire with you in front of me.” Not open for any objections I quickly hurry her over to Abaddon and then refocus my attention on my breath. It has grown in intensity and the thuum within me has now reached its highest peak so much that it is making my body throb from the extreme power.

When I feel the power level hit its maximum threshold, I quickly look over to all the ponies and see that they have looks of anticipation on their faces. “This one is my personal tribute to our new found friendship.” I say before rapidly turning around and steadying myself before taking a huge breath in and shouting with all the power possible for my fire shout. “Yol Toor Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul!” (Fire breath!)

A massive stream of white fire, ten times bigger than that of the dragon’s shouts comes bursting out of my mouth and quickly streaks across the sky with gale force power. The stream quickly engulfs the others fire and then just as quickly as if formed, dies out and then all is quiet and still. Wanting to know what they thought of my fire shout, I turn my head with a smile but instantly it turns to one of confusion. Their mouths all hang open and they are staring at me wide eyed, as if what I had just did was either absolutely amazing or absolutely terrifying or a mix of both. “Well what do you think?” I say brightly to which they all shake their heads and then look at me, a mix of emotions flowing through their eyes.

“THAT WAS ABSOLUTLY EPIC!” Rainbow Dash says before flying up to me and hugging me tightly while the others form similar reactions.

“How did you do that?!” Twilight exclaims.

“That was by far the most impressive display of raw power I have ever seen from somepony outside of an alicorn!” Celestia shouts, causing me to blush slightly.

“That was the coolest thing I have ever seen you are going to get one extra superfantastical party!” Pinkie exclaims to which I just continue to blush and look at all my new friends.

“Ah its noting really, just wanted to make sure my new friends have fun is all.” I say bashfully before removing Rainbow from her hug and then looking down to the ground. From where I am I can see ponies are jumping up and down and looks like there having a blast. “Yep, I got em!” I think to myself as I now will the dragons to land and they quickly dive down to the ground and then gently come to a landing near the crowed of ponies and as soon as I step off the crowed breaks into a huge round of stomping and whistling. Trying to be as humble as this event has swelled my head to be, I hop off Odaviing and give a few smiles and bow a few times to which the crowd roars once more in approval and another round of hoof beats.

However, this quickly dies off and in confusion I can see that in my act Celestia and the other ponies have gathered close to me with various smiles, including Fluttershy who seems to detach herself from me without me having felt her do so. Now raising to full height I then wave the ponies to get even closer to me and they quickly do, with Twilight quickly shoving Rainbow out of the way and taking a spot standing in front of me. Once again I can hear the annoyed sigh of Rainbow Dash and the sad pout of Rarity before they get in closer to my side, still shoving each other slightly trying to get closer to me. However, when Celestia clears her throat, I turn and ignore the fighting mares, wanting to hear what Celestia was going to have to say.

‘Well I have to say that was impressive…am I right?!” The crowd roars with applause and then Celestia raises a hoof and crowd instantly grows silent. “You all first viewed him as a demon, a strange foreigner in are lands, but this demonstration tonight and I believe that I speak for everypony among us tonight when I say that he is far from a demon, but a very powerful and gentle being who wants nothing more than to be excepted and become a part of our ponies!” The crowed then explodes into another round of hoof stomping and whistling and then Celestia motions me with her head to step up beside her. Knowing that this was my time to be in the spotlight once more, I put on a smile and step around Twilight and take my place next to Celestia.

As the roar of the crowd continues I smile and wave to them, blowing the occasional kiss and living up this moment as much as possible. But then something happens that I never would have expected. Celestia quickly extends the wing that I am standing by and then gently drapes it over my back, causing me to gasp slightly and then blush fiercely. Then when I turn and look at her, a slight blush is spread across her face and her eyes seem to be glowing slightly, making my insides melt and my being to float in euphoria. Her wing is soft and warm, making me feel as though a massive comfy blanket has been spread across me and is now self-warming itself to the perfect temperature. Her gaze makes me feel a state of utter bliss that I have never felt before and I gently rub the one of my hands against the wing, causing a slight shutter to come from Celestia whose eyes glow a little brighter, causing me to fall even more into euphoria.

After what feel like an eternity, Celestia reluctantly looks away from me to the crowed and instantly some of my euphoric state leaves me, but enough remains from the wing that I hardly notice it and then I turn back to face the crowed as well. “Now I know that it has grown late and many of you must attend to yourselves before being able to rest, even I am starting to feel tired, but I want to close with a personal welcome to our newest edition to Equestria…Chris the Dragonborn!” As soon as she says this, the crowd now literally starts a small earthquake and starts to chant one thing in unison.

“Dragonborn, Dragonborn, Dragonborn, Dragonborn, Dragonborn…!”

After a few more minutes of intense shouting and me soaking up the attention from the ponies, they then turn and start to head back to Ponyville and Celestia releases me from her wing and instantly I turn to her and she smiles brightly at me. Then she motions for me follow her back to the group of mares and I quickly do and once I arrive they all instantly surround me.

“You know I think they like you!” Fluttershy says first making me smile proudly.

“Well what do you all think of me?” I say quietly before a unified voice quickly answers me.

“We think you’re amazing!” Without hesitation, I quickly laugh and then sigh.
“
You are all wonderful and I cannot wait to spend more time with you.” Then we break into conversation for a while, talking about how it was going to be in the future and then Rainbow yawns and stretches, ending the conversation.

“Well, I have got to get home and crash, I will see you all later and Chris…we have got to fly sometime together, what do you say?”

“Absolutely, just promise me you won’t lag too far behind me!” I say jokingly, causing Rainbow to smile and narrow her eyes.
“Lag behind, it is going to be you who is going to have to catch up to me!” As soon as she says this I laugh hardily and then wave her goodnight and then in a flash she takes flight and disappears into the night sky. The next person to yawn is Celestia and she gently stretches her wings and then sighs.

“I must return to Canterlot, but please if you wish I will take you to Canterlot tomorrow I would like to get to know you better and for you to meet my sister Luna.” She says giving me a tired smile and I hold my smile and gesture with my arms towards Canterlot.

“I would greatly appreciate that but for now…your castle awaits you princess.” Celestia then gently flaps her wings several times and then rises into the sky while giving us a heartfelt goodnight and then flies off towards Canterlot. Then as soon as she is out of sigh, Rarity quickly runs up to me and leans up while smiling and hugging me around the neck.

“I do say, you may be cute but your fashion is one to be improved, I have given Fluttershy some clothes for you to wear tomorrow to the royal palace but please stop by sometime and get the other clothing I will make for you alright.” This statement causes me to look at her with a strange look and I cock my head slightly to the side.

“How did you-?” However I am instantly stopped by a glowing white light coming from her horn and I my head cocks over even more slightly.

“Fashion magic, the whole time you had your hooves on me I was filling your body with my magic, getting all your measurements and even looking at the layout of your body.” Instantly my face reddens and I look down to the ground as Rarity laughs flirtingly before continuing to speak. “Then I used my magic to guide the tools at my shop to create what I thought based on what you were wearing you would like and it was not easy considering that I have never made human clothes before, but I feel as though you will find them simple but fitting of your style!” She says happily while giggling and continuing to embrace me in a hug. After a few seconds of her finishing talking, I recompose myself and look to her, my lips only inches from hers.

“Thanks and I am sure I will enjoy them.” I say shyly to which she giggles and kisses me on my cheek before releasing me and then turning around to start walking back to Ponyville.

“Goodnight Chris.” She says before her tail gently brushes to the side, briefly revealing her marehood to me and immediately I blush and stammer a goodnight back and without another word she then starts to walk back towards the entrance of Ponyville and as soon as she get to the first building, rounds a corner and then disappears. Well she certainly likes me!” I think to myself as I turn back around to face the remaining ponies while laughing slightly hoping for them to have not just seen that little stunt. However my hope is quickly dashed as I see Twilight is rolling her eyes and Fluttershy is about to start weeping. Instantly I try to put on a happy face and engage the ponies in some form of conversation in an effort to restore them.

“So, I guess we all should start to head back home, because I don’t know about you but I am beat!” I say while nervously laughing. Twilight eyes then focus on me and so does Fluttershy and they both crack a small smile and I take a small breath of relieve and walk over next to Fluttershy. Pinkie Pie then gives a tired sigh and I turn my focus to her and see that she has started to walk back to Ponyville. “Hey Pinkie, goodnight!” I shout and she immediately turns around and cracks a huge smile.

“Have a super-duper night Chris by the way I think I know what kind of party to throw you whenever I can get the chance!” She says quickly, her tail and mane twitching wildly. Seeing that she was probably excited about getting to host a party for her new friend, I wave to her and smile.

“I cannot wait!” I say energetically before bending down and running a hand through Fluttershy’s mane making her sigh and giggle slightly. Pinkie then cracks another even bigger smile.

“Well then I am going to teach you how to P-A-R-T-Y!” She says energetically before jumping off the ground and spinning her legs around like a helicopter and then with the sound of a burnout, takes off in a flash and then disappears into Ponyville, leaving me open mouthed and stunned at what I had just witnessed.

“How the hell does she do that?” I say with amazement before turning to Twilight with a slightly cocked head and she gives a gentle laugh.

“One thing you will find about Pinkie is that there is no explanation to what she can do besides the fact that she is Pinkie!” Twilight says before giving another small laugh and then a long yawn. “I am pretty tired, so I am going to go ahead and get home, but if you would like when you get the chance stop by my place, I have so many questions about that power of yours, what is it called again?”

“It is called the thuum and I will be happy to come and spend some time with you and answer any questions you have.” Twilight then gently smiles before blushing slightly and turns around to face Ponyville.

“This was one of the best nights I have ever had, thank you.” She says in a warm voice and I instantly become bashful.

“Oh it was nothing, now you go ahead and get some sleep, don’t want you tired for whatever may lie ahead tomorrow.” Twilight then instantly yawns and nods in agreement and then starts to gently walk towards the town.

“Goodnight Chris, I will never forget this night.” She says quietly, making my face turn red and my insides hum with warm energy.

“Goodnight Twilight!” I shout to her and then turn back to face Fluttershy and see that she herself looks dog tired and instantly I pull my hand from her and then gently pick the mare up.

“W-what are you doing?” She asks weakly to which I look forward and start to walk towards Odaviing.

“Carrying you home, it is late and you look tired and I know that it is going to be a long walk back so I think I am going to take Odaviing back if that is okay with you?” Fluttershy then surprises me and gently snuggles up on me, wrapping her tail around my waist and then sighing.

“Wow you are so warm and soft, I like it.” The redness returns to my face and I instantly go to say something but I think better and stop myself and just let myself be in this moment. Odaviing must also know that I am having a tender moment because he says nothing to me and when I approach his head he lowers it to the ground and I climb on bored and position myself so that I am able to balance while holding Fluttershy. After I get myself situated, I then look over to Parthanaxx and Abaddon while stroking Fluttershy gently.

“Go ahead and return to Skuldafin, I will call for you if I need you.” I say lightly and the two dragons nod and then with a single flap of their wings are air born and start heading off in the direction of the same mountain they flew over to come when I called them originally. After a minute they cross the mountain and then vanish from sight and I sigh and speak slowly to Odaviing. “You know where to go?” The massive dragons simply nods his head slightly and then with a single flap of his wings goes air born and then flies in a circle before starting to fly following the dirt road and I decide to let myself relax and try to keep awake for the next 2 minutes of flight.

But as I am about to lean back and relax a slight animal like roar catches my attention and instantly I look around in question. The roar is low and sounds similar to that of a cougar, but deeper pitched and sounds even more primal, almost evil. Instantly I realize that this is not coming from any animal but from something else and that sends my senses into overdrive. After a few seconds more pass of this strange sound it fades away into nothing and now the only sound is that of the flapping of wings and the rushing of air, leaving me slightly boggled but completely aware. “Something is not right here and I know that sound from somewhere, but somehow I feel as though that might have been something really bad waking up and if I know anything about bad things…once they awaken then all hell breaks loose!”
