The Word in Ponyville
The Delivery
Load Full StoryNext ChapterCelestia’s sun shined brightly over the little town of Pony-ville. It was at least nine o’ clock in the morning as most of the towns pony’s were waking up and going about their morning routines.
One pony in particular, Fluttershy was awake and inside of her log cabins living room looking after her pet rabbit, Angel. She was brushing his fur and puffy cotton tail while she hummed a happy tune to herself. While she was brushing her pet rabbits fur, a knock could be heard coming from the Pegasus's front door of her house.
“Just a moment.” Fluttershy called out as she finished brushing up Angel’s fur, needless to say he was not happy about this but shrugged and went hopping off to another part of the cabin, while Fluttershy trotted her way to her front door before asking through the door.
“Who is it? Can I help you?” She said silently but just loud enough to be heard on the opposite side of the door. The unknown pony on the other side then replied.
“Pony-ville Post miss, I have a package here for a miss Fluttershy”. The now known mail pony spoke.
With that Fluttershy proceeded to open up her door and sign her signature on a piece of paper attached to a clipboard, as the mail pony then handed Fluttershy what appeared to be a book wrapped in bright blue wrapping with a lime green bow on top of it. She then looked to the mail pony and asked with concern.
“Do you have any idea who sent this, there is no return address.” Fluttershy explained.
The mail pony shook his head “no ma’am thats the senders option if they want to put a return address on something, if they want to fine if not fine.”
Fluttershy nodded understanding the way the post system worked.
“Ok I understand, well thank you for the package and have a nice day.” Fluttershy told the mail pony with a smile.
“You have a good day as well miss.” The mail pony tipped his hat to Fluttershy before he walked off down the dirt road which lead to Fluttershy’s cottage and after he was gone Fluttershy closed the door.
Fluttershy then took her package and set it on her dinner table before unwrapping it and on the cover in gold letters was the word “Holy Bible”. The book also was bonded with black leather and looked to be very well put together. The pages edges were gold coated as well. Fluttershy tilted her head to the side not understanding what the bible was, she took a hold of the book and carried it into her living room before sitting down and opening it to the first chapter: “Genesis 1:1”. Fluttershy read aloud “In the beginning, God created the Heavens and The Earth.”
As Fluttershy finished reading the first book Genesis which took her about maybe one hour to read the whole thing as she used a bookmark to mark her place where she was last reading, the next chapter she would read at a later time would be the book of “Exodus”.
Fluttershy not really understanding what she had read puzzled her mind as she took the bible and set it inside of a saddle sack and put on the saddle sack on her back she walked out of her cabin making her way toward her friend Twilight’s maybe Twilight could figure out this strange book. Soon enough Fluttershy was at the front door of Twilight’s castle as she knocked with a hoof gently.
“Be right there!” Twilight from the other side of the door called out as a purple aura of magic engulfed the front door and it opened.
