Evolution

"Tonight....we will all BURN, and there will be no afterlife for us!"

Tavo suddenly awoke panting and in a cold sweat. He looked around noting animals hadn't awoken yet from their sleep. Unsure why he looked around but saw nothing out the ordinary. Just before he was about to fall back asleep he heard a bark. He got back up and again saw noting, than another bark. He then looked down. It was only Wynona barking. He let out a sigh then got up from his straw bed. The day has started. The barn doors opened and in came Applejack to greet Tavo "up an at em Tavo, theres work to be done." She said with a smile. Wynona ran back outside, "Good morning Applejack." said Tavo "So whats there to do today?" he asked eyes still getting used to the sunlight. "Well we still gotta replant some trees that had fallen since the aftershock of the first earthquake, still cant figure out why it took so long for one ta come. Oh and we also have ta clean the apple cellar cause the aftershock knocked some barrels open." She said they left the barn and headed out to do their jobs till breakfast.

Its been four days since the accident with the train, so far the only bad thing that's happened was the aftershock that surprised a lot of ponies. As he was moving trees that had fallen into some piles on the fields, he was recollecting some more things he'd learn about these ponies and they're world. what he has mostly learned is that almost every animal here talks, except for small animals. There are also creatures here that in his world only existed as myth. Yet practically everything here is harmless but he never went out to confirm it.

He also learned some characteristics about the six girls that apparently called him a friend. They were a bit strange and got into situations that to him seemed kinda funny instead of serious. But they called him a friend, and as such he would keep them alive and safe no matter what. But in this case why would he, the only dangerous thing in this world was him.

When he realized it, he was already done with one of his jobs. When he was about to get to another job a cry went out "Breakfast is ready!" AppleJack waved over alongside her brother and sister. He was a little confused at how fast time went but didn't really pay much attention to it. He was just glad to be given food and a bed that wasn't made of rocks and broken glass. When he caught up to them the four made their way to their home. They sat around a table and were served plates of Apple slices with a side of hay and oats. It took some while to get used to eating hay and oats but then again, he's eaten worst things so he just ate silently enjoyed what he never had. They were having a conversation but it wasn't anything that he should worry about so he naturally tuned them out.

Applejack was enjoying the conversation with her family. Granny Smith was telling a funny story about the past that involved a Pegasus trying to win a bet. They laughed like crazy "she kept flyin and flyin all across town but could never find the fifth piece of the puzzle set." Granny smith said "an then what happened?" giggled Applebloom "well she just about given up and went home ta get some sleep, but when she looked in the mirror she found the piece was stuck in her mane the whole time and she felt all silly n such." Chuckled Granny. "and when she showed the piece to her unicorn friend, he jaw dropped straight to the ground and the next day he put on the pinkest and pretties tutu and danced around town in front of every pony and the Pegasus just laughed and laughed like there was no tomorrow!" she laughed and they all broke out in laughter! As she was lauhing and wiping the tears off her eyes, Applejack noticed Tavo hadn't spoken a single word and just kept eating.

She noticed this going on for the four days he's been here. On the second day she was going to ask him but the aftershock had completely took them by surprise so she never got to ask. She felt like today was the day she had to ask so she cleared her throat and said "hey Tavo?" he froze and looked up from his plate "yes?" he said she breathed in "where exactly did you get that scar on your face?" she pointed at his mouth. Everyone in the room stared at him in anticipation, they also wondered. "It's personal." He said rubbing the back of his head. "oh….alright." she said. There was silence in the room then Applebloom broke the silence "Hey Tavo, where'd you come from before?" she asked "well..its kind of complicated." he said "what do ya mean sonny?" Granny Smith asked. Tavo didn't know how to answer these kinds of questions they were asking. If he told them about the life he had before and the things hes done he won't know if they'll still accept him. He was already hated by enough people already, he didn't want to add ponies to the huge list.

"Uh its just complicated right now, lets just leave it at that." He said hoping they would believe him "Okay then." She said. When he was done he got up but before he left Applejack stopped him. "The mail came in, here's a letter for ya." said Applejack "who's it from?" he asked. "Don't know, there's no name on it but it has a canterlot royal seal so i reckon it must be important." She handed him the letter and he stared awkwardly at it. "Thank you I look at it later when I'm done." He said and he left for his chore. Applejack stood at the door way wondering where he came from and where he got that creepy scar.

-an hour later-

Tavo was done with all his chores and had already finished helping the others with theirs. Nothing else left but to read the letter. He went to the barn where he left it and picked it off the ground near a bale of hay he used as a pillow. He stared longlly at it wondering why anyone from royalty would send him a letter. He didn't know and frankly he couldn't care. He hated royalty, to him it was just a fancy word to cover rich and he hated the rich. They made up most of the federations politicians. He was considering ripping the paper to pieces but reconsidered feeling that they might be different from the ones in his world. Everything else was and so he opened it and read silently.

Applejack knocked on the barn doors "hey Tavo ya in there?" she yelled "yeah, come in I need to speak with ya for minute." She opened the doors and inside was Tavo sitting on a bale of hay, reading the letter. He looked up from his letter "AppleJack, I need you to gather the girls and wait for me at Sugar Cube Corner." He said "why" she asked he handed her the note and her eyes lit up. "YEEHAW!-This is great news I'll gather the girls and we'll wait for ya ta give them the news!" with that she headed out to find the girls smiling all the way.

He stood up and began walking "Hmm…hope this ends well."

Note: i bet its gonna have the same outcome as the last one.
