Days (the only chapter)

Day #1

         Hello Journal, Ray here, I'll be recording the days I spend living in Equestria. Hopeful the locals will accept me and make some friends. Celestia will be sending me to Ponyville tommorow with enough bits to last me a month so that i can find a job gradually with no pressure. She told me to send her a letter if anything goes wrong. Alright ill be packing up tonight and ill be seeing you tommorow Journal.

Day#2

         Good Afternoon Journal. Today i have arrived in Ponyville, it is a nice looking town and i think ill be able to settle here. The locals seemed skittish around me, as if I was going to attack them any second. Oh well, its probably because i look so different from them, they will get used to me eventually. Atleast i made one friend, she is an extremely hyper and friendly pony named Pinkie Pie. She just randomly showed up from out of nowwhere and gave me a bunch of cupcakes, she talked to me for a while and just ran off, I don't think ill be able to get used to her anytime soon. Goodbye Journal

Day#3

         Hello Journal. Today was a really bad day. I tried to find a job and a place to live but nopony would accept me. They gave excuses like "We don't have enough space," "We don't need more workers," or "You're too tall." I think that they are just afraid of me. I guess I'll have to sleep outside today. Good bye Journal.

Day#4

         Hello Journal. Today i took a walk in a nearby forest. I met a giant sea serpent who was surprisingly nice and helped me cross the river. I later found a bridge, which led to some ruins, I think I'll be able to live here, of course I'll have to improve the bridge, but I think I'll be able to make this work. I met a zebra on the way back to town. Her name is Zecora, and she spoke in rhymes. She was scared of me at first, but once I showed her that I meant no harm, she became curious and friendly. We talked as she collected herbs, and I found out that she came from a land named Zebrica and moved here when her people thought that she was a witch because she used potions. I walked her back to the shack she lives in and said my goodbyes. I think I made a new friend today. Goodbye Journal.

Day#35

         Hello Journal, sorry that I haven't written in you for so long. I manage to support the bridge with some tough vines in the forest. I made the ruins livable by clearing some dust and carving some wooden furniture out of some fallen trees. It's not the best but it's livable. The ponies have not warmed up to me yet, actually they seemed to act more violent towards me. They were calling me a freak, one even threw rocks at me. I ran back to the ruins. Is it something that i did. Goodbye Journal.

Day #36

         Hi Journal. Today i found a cottage near the edge of this forest. I saw lots of animals near the cottage, so I thought that the pony who lived in this cottage is an animal caretaker. I thought that maybe the pony who lived here could help me with my protein needs. I knocked at the door and there stood a butter yellow pegasus with pink mane, she fainted when she saw me, so I took her inside the cottage and waited for her to wake up. When she woke up, she immediately tried to hide, but i assured her that i wasn't dangerous. We talked for a little while. I told her that im an omnivore and she gave me some fish. It was all going well until a cyan mare with rainbow mane burst into the cottage and knocked me outside. She chased me out into the forest. I heard her shout "DON'T COME BACK YOU BUCKING MONSTER." I cried myself to sleep in the ruins. Goodbye Journal.

Day #67

         Hello Journal. The ponies hate me now, I can see it in their eyes. I think the cyan pony spread rumors about me attacking Fluttershy or something. When i tried to buy some apples, the mare that was behind the stand accually BUCKED me. I limped back to the ruins and rested. I only made 2 friends in the two months i've been here. Atleast Pinkie brings me cupcakes. Goodbye Journal.

Day #779

         Heh heh heh...... I look so thin Journal, living in the forest really helped me work out. I am thin as a fiddle. Im going to sleep......so tired.....

Day #780

         Yes! Pinkie left me a piece of chocolate cake. I didn't see her, but atleast she remembers that i exist right? Weird, the chocolate cake tastes like bark, but its the thought that counts right? The chocolate cake is a bit hard to chew, and brittle. Goodbye Journal.

Day #1136

         Hello Journal. Some kind colts and fillies threw grey and brown cupcakes at me. They were laughing and gigling, I didn't know what was so funny, but atleast they were nice enough to give me some cupcakes, though they were too hard to be edible. Its the thought that counts. Goodbye Journal.

[Timeskip: one month]

         Hello Journal. Today the nice colts and fillies told me to jump off a cliff, they told me that it would be fun and exciting. I told them ill do it tommorow. They will probably catch me when im near the bottom, they are my friends, i trust them. Goodbye Journal.

Day:Unknown

         Hello Journal, I am currently sitting near the edge of the cliff they told me to jump off of. I can't see the colts and fillies. I bet that they are waiting near the bottom, ready to catch me. This is really exciting, the ponies have finally accepted me. Alright I am ready to go. Goodbye Journal.

PONYVILLE DAILEY NEWS

Today a group of foals discovered a dead bipedal being at the bottom of a cliff, the doctors determined that the being died by falling down the cliff. The being was very malnourished and had cracks in its teeth, suggesting that it tried to eat a hard substance, maybe rocks. What made this being fall down the cliff? And why is it so malnourished?
