The story of my life.

Chapter 2

As I began to near Ponyville I couldn't shed tears anymore. I was dried up like a sponge that was left out to dry in 30 degrees

celsius in the sun. I was alone in the wagon, so nopony heard me cry, except the conductor, but he just ignored it and kept on walking. I sighed deeply and rested my head on the window board. I heard the bells ring and knew that I had to leave.

In Ponyville, the first face that I saw was Pinkamena Diane Pie's, or as everypony likes to call her, Pinkie Pie. She looked at my sniffing face and immediately came to cheer me up. I couldn't speak a word, I was so depressed, but she still got a smile on my face. She took me to eat cupcakes with her and have some fun, pranking other ponies. Slowly we became the best of friends.

I got to sleep the first few months in her room, on the floor of course, but with a mattress. After those I was without a home for the summer. She couldn't keep a foal in her home she said, frowning. She didn't explain why and I didn't ask. I didn't want to make her more sad.

I had to spend the summer on the streets, because nopony wanted to take me in their homes. I don't blame them. I was a smelly, bad maned, dirty pony. I myself wouldn't have taken me in. I lived of the food everypony threw away, especially

the Apple family. My favorite food at that happened to be apples, not so crusted with dirt, etc. I was starving every single day and my ribs were showing. Every time somepony saw me I would run. I didn't want to be seen by anypony in the condition I was in.

Eventually I survived the summer and then came the Halloween season, although I did have to wait another one and a half month for it. I dressed as a ghost, a blanket being the only thing I could get my hooves on. I went around gathering candy and trying to spook ponies off. Eventually came the time for Princess Luna to arrive in Ponyville. Pinkie, dressed as a goat, told me she came to Ponyville every single year. Everypony wanted to speak to her and I decided to not even try to speak to her and try to get her to deliver me back to my mom.

The night went on and everypony was having a good time, except me. I had eaten all my candy into my sorrow and hunger. I saw Luna playing games in the middle of everything and sighed. I was ready to give up all of my  hope and started walking to my sleeping box, if it hadn't been stolen again. I felt a light tap on my shoulder and turned around, giving a tired stance. Then I realized who I was ready to fight with. Luna was standing in front of me, looking at me sadly. "Isn't this a night when everypony is supposed to have fun?" she asked me, smiling softly. "Come, my dear. Have fun with us." she said and picked me up. I didn't mind, I actually liked it. It'd been a while since somepony held me like that. I played all the games available in Ponyville. We laughed and ate and won many prices, one of which I still have today.

When Luna declared she had to go and do her royal business I sighed and began walking away. She followed me to my regular sleeping spot and startled me by asking; "Don't you want to come with me, dear?". I nodded and smiled carefully, my insides filling with joy. She carried me to her transportation and we left Ponyville. I looked at all the landscape, just whizzing by us. I didn't notice it, but halfway on the journey I fell asleep. I felt like the happiest pony alive.
