Why me?
Hope?
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI am getting really nervous now; it has been over an hour since Exclusive left to save his house. I hope Exclusive’s house is alright; It would be such a waste if they don’t put out the fire in time. But I have my own problems to worry about soon.
I know that Exclusive said to act natural around the Princess when she going to show up. But how do you even do that? I never had to meet Royalty before and what is she excepts me to act a certain way around her. Maybe I am just over thinking it and I just can’t calm down. After all, first impressions are always important when meeting new people regardless of who they are.
And if I want to have any chances of getting back home; I would have to get on her good side. If anypony would know where to start looking to find a way home, it would be her.
Knock, Knock, Knock
Hang on, somepony is at the door.
“Ah… hello anypony in there, may I come in?” Well, it’s not Nurse Red Heart. The voice is too quiet and time. Could it be her?
“Yes, you may Miss.” Ok let’s get a good look at this new pony. Pocking her head through the door I can see a yellow pegasus with a long pink mane.
“Hello there. Are you Jessica?”. This has to be Twilight I mean she has the looks that scream ‘I am a princess’.
“Why yes, that would be me. And I heard that you wanted to see me.” Ok, it’s crunch time Jessica, don’t mess this up.
“Oh, really? I just wanted to make sure you were alright after I heard what happen to you from Rainbow.” She said quietly.
“Yeah, I figured as much. So, what can I do for you today?” Easy now; don’t panic you are doing great so far.
“Well, I brought you some books for you so you have something to do while you are here.” I like her.
“Oh! That’s very thought full of you Princess.” Oh dear. That seems to have surprised her. I guess she doesn’t use her title that often… oops.
“Oh my…” she said to bring a hoof to her mouth.
“Sorry about that Twilight. I guess you don’t use your title that often.” Huh now she looks like panicking now. Not good I got to do something.
“Oh, but I not…” Oh …ok she was just surprised that I knew who she was and now is just trying to be modest.
“Now I don’t want to hear it!” It’s time to help this pony out.
“Huh?” She said staring at me.
“You know, about not caring about your title. You were given a very good one, form what I have heard. So don’t be embarrass by it, embrace it for it’s a part of who you are.” Nailed it.
“But...” Oh no, you don’t, I am on a roll here Twilight!
“No BUTS! Twilight. If you don’t take pride in yourself and stand up for yourself then everypony will just walk all over you. Then you’ll never be able to enjoy being with your friends completely if you can’t even be comfortable with yourself.” Words of wisdom Ponies. Now for her other problem.
“Let alone find a stallion for yourself.” Oh, now she's embarrassed.
“HUH!?” I think I hit gold.
“You know what I am talking about girl. You want to find that somepony you can lean on to when your weak. Who will always be by your side. That’s one Special Somepony who will be with you forever.” I think I am getting to her.
“Ooh” She has a faraway look in her eye but I am not done yet.
“But first you need find him, and you can’t do that being indoors all the time. You need to get out there. And once you find him grab hold of him and never let go.” Now to drive it home. “And to let him know that you are always him and he is always yours.” She leans in at this. “You must kiss as much as to your heart content. Kiss him like it’s the last time you’ll ever get a chance to kiss him again. And …Huh!” Wow I didn’t know pony coat could change color like that. Are they part chameleon or something?
“oh… my!” Uh maybe I went a little too far? She looks like a tomato now.
“Uh Twilight… are you feeling ok? You are looking a little red there.” I think I broke her. Ok Now I know definitely I broke her! She just felled over onto her side on the floor on top of the roses (which I forgot they were still there) mumbling some like ‘kisses’ quietly to herself. I didn’t mean to break the Princess! Honest! I was just offering some friendly advice!
“NURSE HELP!” oh please don’t there be a penalty for braking royalty.
Soon Red heart came running into the room “What’s wrong dearie… Goodness what happen to her!” she said rushing to her side. “Fluttershy are you alright, can you hear me?” no response came from…hold on a second!
“Wait?! Fluttershy!” It has at that moment that I realize that I dun goofed. “She not the… but I thought… I had no idea that she wasn’t Twilight.” I continue to lay there watching the scene in front of me.
Red Heart took Fluttershy to the coach nearby along with the roses, I can only hope she alright. I didn’t mean to do that to her. I didn’t know she wouldn't be able to handle it. I thought she was the Princess ok.
Then again, if she really was one and with what just happen... I don’t want to think about it anymore!
Also, if there one thing that I have learn during my time here. Is that somehow in some way everypony name has something to do with that pony in one way or another. And with a name that ends with the word ‘shy’ along with her reaction only helps prove my claim. I can only imagine what’s she thinking right now. Poor girl I am so sorry.
“Oh, goodness what have I done?!” Please live Fluttershy.
“Now don’t start going Rarity on me Jessica she be just fine. She just need some time to calm down, but I might I ask, how did this happen?” It would be best if I were to come in clean the whole way.
“I thought she was Twilight and gave her some advice about the important's of standing up for herself.” I then notice that I can see Fluttershy eating the roses from here.
“That can’t be all of it.” Red Heart said wanting a more elaborate explanation.
“And I might have also told her to get a stallion for herself and that she can kiss him as much as she wanted to.” I was pulling my sheets closer to me as I said that. Red just nods understanding what really happen.
“Ok now That will do it.” She then pulls a hoof down her face. “And just what in Equestria were you thinking?! The word ‘shy’ is in her name for a reason you know!!” Uh oh, she mad now!
“I wasn’t thinking. I thought she was the Princess and I had heard about how she needed some help in certain field of life. So, I gave her some of my personal advice about self-confides and finding the right stallion. Please don’t hurt me!” I would like to see my next birthday.
“What with all the fuse going on around here… hay what happen to Fluttershy!?” I turn to the door to see a new mare in the door way.
This pony has a purple coat and mane with a pink highlight running through her mane and tail. Also, she seems to have both a horn and wings; I guess that’s how you can tell if they are royalty. Now I just feel silly for thinking Fluttershy was a Princess.
“Also, where did those roses come from and can I have some?” Huh? Oh, right Exclusive drop them…. why did he had them in the first place?
“Excuses me Miss are you Twilight?” she turns to look at me to reply.
“Yes, I am and you must be Jessica.” She said as Red Heart quietly left the room. Ok then, no need to let Twilight know what happen earlier.
“That’s what I have been going by for as long as I can remember,” I said with a wave of my hoof.
“Right, so how are you doing today?” she replied with a roll of her eyes first.
“Ok for all things considering.” I better get comfortable she seems to want to talk for a while.
“I can only imagine. I heard that it was you, Exclusive, Rainbow and some more ponies that were pony-napped by some Diamond Dogs. All for the whole purpose of breeding. Correct?” she said while raising an eye brow at the end.
“Yes, it was very odd, to say the least. Also, why are you asking me this? Didn’t Rainbow tell you already what happened?” tilting my head as I asked her.
“Yes, she did, but I would like to get your opinion on what happened. Maybe Rainbow miss something that would explain why they did what they did. For it isn’t common D.D. behavior.” Interesting.
“Maybe they are just starting to use their heads,” I said raising both of my hooves in a shrug.
“If they are; they might become a problem for Pony Ville and even for all of Equestria. That why I must find out as much as I can. So that this doesn’t become something we need to be worrying about later.” That makes sense, got to watch out for the safety of her subjects after all.
“If that’s the case you don’t have much to worry about then. They aren’t that bright and can get embarrass very easily. After all that’s how we got out of there in the first place.” I chuckled at the end remembering how easy it was to lose those D.D. “In my opinion, I think they are still have twenty years before they become a threat to any pony.”
“Well, that’s a relief.” She replied with a sigh.
“Now then what did happen to Fluttershy?” she asked turning to face her. By now all the roses are gone. Nuts I wanted to try some to.
“She slipped on the roses and hurt herself; so, Nurse Red Heart is letting her rest on the coach until she feels better.” I am not going to tell her that I did that to her.
“Really?” she doesn’t look convinced.
“More or less, but Twilight I was wondering if you can help me with something?” It’s now or never. It’s time to break the ice.
“Oh, and what might that be?” she turns to look at me interested.
“Twilight have you ever heard of a creature named a human?” I simply asked.
