Welcome, Delta!by DeltaSRiftChaptersPrologueHere we go...The Light in the DarknessPrologue"Hey," I said to Elise. We had been a pronounced couple since high school and we were attending college together. "How was your day?" "Same as all the rest," She replied, a bit of hatred in her voice. I can understand why. Many people have made fun of her saying, "You don't deserve him. Just give up, you two won't be together for long." And the worst of all, "Just kill yourself, you truly can die and nobody will miss you." "Wanna talk about it?" I sighed, recalling on things they had also told me. "What?" She said shooting an angry glare at me. I stepped back from her when I saw the look. "What is there to talk about! We've done this a thousand times Griffin, even when we lied about not dating each other in middle school!" "Okay, I see your point." I say still a little frightened from what she had just said. She hadn't raised had raised her voice to me at all but every now and then, she would let all of her emotions out in our texts. "I just don't want to see you angry that's all." "Alright, let's just get to our dorm first." She said, the fear leaving my body. "Ok, let's go quickly before anyone spots us." And just when I said that. "HEY, GRIFFIN!" A voice shouts from behind me. I turn around with insane speed and lock on to who had projected the voice. It was JP and his gang. "Oh, shit. Run, Elise, just get away from here." She looks at me, then JP and then nods. She turns and runs to her dorm like there's no tomorrow. I look back at JP, he had almost got to where I was standing. He was five and a half feet tall with light brown hair. "What do you want?" I ask him, in a calm manner. "Oh nothing," He says, but I knew he's lying. "I just want to see how two people act when they are completely different." "We're not different, JP," I shoot back at him. "We're about the closest thing to soul mates. I honestly doubt you even who what that means." He stopped where he was for a moment and just stared at me. "You know," he said grinning wider than I had ever seen him do before. "We have a new member on our, *ahem, team." "Who would want to join you? They must have the same grade average as you." I sneer at him, knowing his grade average is just enough to keep him in Maryland University. "Oh, hehehe, you just cut the wrong string." He said, hate had filled his voice, but that didn't make me scared or afraid. He turned toward the rest of his gang who were leaning against a wall smoking in the shadows about forty-five feet away, and whistled. They in unison dropped their smokes and stomp on them to put them out. Then they step out into the open. What I saw, oh god, what I saw were kids that were beaten, attacked and extremely bulky. I took a step back at seeing the "new member." The dude must have been six and half to seven feet tall. He had biceps the size of footballs. I was about to turn and run before my pride stopped me. I would take on any odds and try my hardest to win right then and there. "Oh, go ahead, back away and run to precious wittle girlfriend." He sneered. I shot him with daggers from my eyes within a millisecond of him saying that. Personally, he just fucked with the wrong guy. "Oh, I didn't know you were so down you beat your on posse. I mean really, you think they could beat me in there state of injury?" I said not showing any fear, but instead a bit of hate and laughter. "Oh no, they aren't the ones that are going to beat you up. They are witnesses to the great art I am about to create." Before I could retort or ask him what he was taking about, I felt a huge pain in my stomach and I fell backwards, blacking out of the spot. Here we go...My eyes flashed open. I couldn't feel anything but a sharp pain in my back. I was stiffer than a board. I tried to get up. I put my... "Oh. My. Celestia." I whispered under my breath. I was looking at a white hoof. That's when I noticed my surroundings. I was in a forest, but vines sprawled everywhere. I looked myself up and down, I had been badly hurt. I was bleeding heavily out from... under my... wing? I decided I would open it up to see how big the wound was. I almost threw up at the sight of it. It took up the entire space under my wing, and it was insanely deep. I need to find a doctor, soon. I thought to myself. I took a step and a jolt of pain went straight through me. I ignored it to the best of my ability and continued forward. Wait, what's that up there? I saw tree with masks and a door. I stumbled over to the door and let myself in. I found many herbs within the hut. Ranging from the ability to heal to being able to defend, even some to attack. I found some herbs to help me heal, a kettle, a water source and some bandages. I thought to myself, May as well stay here so I don't risk anymore injuries. It was nearly half an hour until the mixture was ready. I slowly unwrapped the bandages off of my wound and poured the mixture on top. It stung at first but slowly relaxed afterwards. I put on a new set of bandages and found a nice place to rest. Then my eyes feel upon something new. A purple unicorn was standing at the doorway staring at me. I thought I was hallucinating but I can to realized, [iYou know what, I AM a Pegasus, so this must be real. I slowly got up from the spot where I was laying. "Hello." I said, giving the unicorn a friendly smile. She looked ant me quizzically, then asked "And who are you?" "My name is..." Oh, Celestia. I thought. I hadn't thought of a name yet. "Delta." I just said the first thing that came to my mind. I looked at here and said, "Yours?" "My name is Twilight Sparkle." She said calmly, then she walked over to me. "What happened to you?" She said, looking at the bandage under my wing. I shrugged and said, "I woke up like this. And I found this hut," I said, pausing to look around, "I used some of the herbs to help myself heal faster and easier." "Well, alright then." She said, still some curiosity in her voice. "Have you seen a zebra around here?" "No. Actually, I just got here." I replied, So there are also zebras in this world? Neat. I thought. "Is there a town anywhere near here?" I asked. "Yes, actually, it's just down the path, it's called Ponyville." She said, much to my relief. "Is there anything that I could help you with?" I shook my head, No, at least, not now. "Thanks, but I think I can carry on from here." I say barely turning my head as I trot by her and head to the door. "Thanks though, for you being the first pony I have met," I said, "You treated me really nicely." I say turning my head back forward and walking down the path she had told me about. She just gave me a quizzical look, as she was wondering what I had meant, but hen rolled her eyes and went back into the hut as if searching for someone. Or, should I say, somepony. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was insight of the town she said was called Ponyville. Then I worked my way towards what looked like a hotel. Hopefully I suspected right. Nope. I was wrong. I knocked on the door and a white-coated unicorn answered the door. "Is this a hotel?" I ask, I screwed up so bad. "No," she said calmly, "but I do have an extra room if you need it." "If you would be nice enough as t-" "Here, I'll show you to it." She walked out of the way of the doorway and let me in. I looked around the room seeing poster and a bass speaker set up. "Here you are!" She said. I looked around the room it was as normal as possible. A bed, nightstand, and a book shelf. "Tha-" "I never got your name." She said looking over her shoulder. "Delta," I responded quickly, as I didn't want anymore attention towards me. "You?" "The name's Vinyl Scratch. Here you are!" She said. I looked around the room it was as normal as possible. A bed, nightstand, and a book shelf. "Well, thank you, Vinyl." I said resting my head on the pillow. Then everything around me flickered to black. The Light in the DarknessWhen I woke up, it was night tie, the moon was high, the stars were shining, and there was a silhouette near the forest... Wait, what was that last one? I went to the window and looked across the forest boundary. Sure enough, there was a pony laying about fifty feet away from the path, starring at the moon. Might as well see who they are. I thought. I quietly walk past what I'm guessing to be Vinyl's room. I walk out the front door. Strangely enough she always keeps her door unlocked. Hell, probably everypony does that. I sigh. I walked slowly into Ponyville. Then I turn towards the path. I walk until i am in sight of the pony lying down. I walk over slowly, not knowing if the pony was friendly or an enemy. Better safe then sorry. "Hello?" I say about fifteen feet from the pony. The pony looks over at me, and I can she has teal eyes, wings... and a horn? Her body is a navy blue. "Hello," She replies, "And who are thou?" Thou? Eh, never mind. "Uh, my name is Delta, what about you?" I think and ask at the same time. "Luna, its nice to meet you Delta," she says, but something in her voice makes me think that she is sad. "Why are thou still awake? We thought that all ponies would be asleep by now." "Well, you could say I got to bed early." I said chuckling a little. Luna was sitting up by now. "Is there a reason why you have both a horn and wings?" I asked quizzically. Now she was looking at me funny. "What does thou mean? I have had these since I was born." She said, 'These' probably meaning her horn and wings. "Does that mean you rule over this land then?" I asked, having no idea about Equestrian society. "Yes, with the help of my sister." She said, joy filling her voice. Sorry everypony I have just completely lost all of my inspiration for this story and with that... This story, "Welcome, Delta!" is cancelled.
