Scythes, Masks, and Tornadoes

Cloudsdale

3 days after chapter 8: nocturne

Windsweeper's P.O.V.

My bags were packed.

I was ready to leave.

Leave for Ponyville.

"Seeya Sky" I said to Sky High, my friend and long time house-mate Sky High "I'm leaving now"

"Later Sweeper" He replied. He never did talk much.

The sun was rising, but I was falling. Downwards towards ponyville.

I asked myself, before opening my wings and flying downwards.

I landed on the path to ponyville.

The town was bustling with activity, So I decided to fly overhead.

Strangely enough, I saw a pink mare on the roof of one of the houses.

She saw me too, gasped, and dashed off.

Dashed.

Dash.

Rainbow Dash.

I now remembered why I had come here. To see Rainbow Dash again.

'As I said all those years ago, you're totally crushing on her.'

'Yeah, well you're gonna be seeing alot more of me soon enough, buddy-boy! Whether it be Dream world or real world, you'll see me soon!'

'SO LONG!'

After walking for awhile I came across 2 ponies with orange manes like mine, a purple earth pony stallion, and a black unicorn stallion, talking to a blonde maned earth pony mare with a light orange coat who was sitting behind an apple stand.

"Hey Applejack, what's up?" asked the purple one to the light orange one, who was apperantly named 'Applejack'.

"Workin' the apple stand, but buisness is mighty slow taday." she said.

"Can I help? I like helping." The purple one said "Tell her about yesterday, Death."

I moved closer, wanting to hear what had happened to them yesterday. Although I didn't quite understand why a pony would be named 'Death'.

"Well," The stallion named Death started"We were walking through town when we saw a grey pegasus mare dragging a couch through the streets. Ray went over and asked if she needed help, she said yes,  and we helped her carry the couch to her house. Then there was the day before that with the chestnut brown stallion and the blue box-" He was cut off by the mare named Applejack.

"Okay, Ah git it Ah git it, you can help if you want to Ray"

"Yes!" The stallion named Ray stated, as he sat down beside the mare named Applejack.

"Now then," Said Death "I'll take a dozen apples please."

"That'll be-" That was when I stopped listening. The stallion handed her the bits and took the apples, then started to walk in my direction.

"Are you new here? I didn't see you at the party a few night back" He asked. Wait, party?

"Yeah, I came here to meet with... an old friend, unfortunately, I don't  have any place to stay."

"I came to see an old friend too, and so did Ray over ther. He was moving here while I was going to leave, so I decided to stay with him. But then the friend I was visiting begged me to stay, so I am. Ray bought a really big house, do you want to stay with us?"

I thought for a moment about the offer. "Sure, why not!"

The black stallion turned and yelled to his friend "RAY! WE HAVE A NEW HOUSE-MATE!"
