That little one
2. The town
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Are you sure you don’t know anything about some relative's?" - Cherry asked Jun as they walked to the village, it seems that even in such a peaceful place, venturing away from the village is dangerous, mantids and hydras are a few creatures to mention, but for Jun it was something a little worrying since the animals apparently had great respect to him.
"No, at least not here" -Jun did not know if telling lies would help his long-term situation, so he preferred to tell the truth, but not all, he did not know how they could react, he even remembered the story of Jesus and it gave him a chill, although he wanted to simply go and see the world, he wanted to see the surroundings where he woked up, besides the animals told him that the other species did not have many settlements, the ponies were the first to organize themselves to formally start a civilization, so at least for now, there was not much to see, besides the two others universes remained the same, it seemed tempting to visit the human world, but seeing that it is an equal version (at least in everything else except magic and time) was like watching the same movie but with subtitles.
"But it's fine! I can take care of myself, I did it for a while, I only got lost in the woods while I was traveling, so Mr. Rabbit helped me find this place" -the mare did not feel comfortable with all this, a porthole alone in the forest, traveling somewhere, which can talk to animals and also that strange cutie mark, did not sound good, but the young man was educated all the time and his voice had a genuine concern for not knowing where he was, but still something in his mind told him that this foal is much more than it appeared.
While they were arriving at the village, the animals that accompanied Jun dispersed, to their respected areas of the forest, all except Mr. Rabbit, in his little mind he had a fair few ideas, because the others chose him to be the master's entourage was one of the few, an owl or maybe an eagle could help him better, but as far as the teacher talked to them in the forest, he is mentally 8 years old, you could have been hurt or worse, although the other animals will not touch a single hair of his body. The other species of ponies, dragons or something less sensitive to nature would not easily realize that the young teacher is someone you should not beat, and less angry........ that thought terrified Mr. Rabbit, so many plans and care to keep the teacher safe, so much stress in that small body could affect it.
"Are you okay carrots?" - asked Cherry.
Carrots just stopped and let out a sigh, causing Cherry to raise an eyebrow and a thought that was too exaggerated for Jun but well justified.
"I do not think Mr. Rabbit feels comfortable, can we take him to your home to see if it's okay?" - Jun asked, to the surprise of Cherry and Carrots.
"Okay, we still go there, but how did you know that he doesnt behave normal? Just to be sure, can you talk to the animals?" - Cherry asked.
Surprised by the strange question, he stared at Mr. Rabbit.
"Cherry ask that, my lord, because it is very rare that they can understand the animals so well, usually they can only understand the state of mind and the general idea of us, but total communication is unusual" - answered Mr. Rabbit.
"Mmm, I do not know, lady, I only understand him as well as you, according to Mr. Rabbit, I'm the only one"
Cherry sky wondered more and more about the origin of jun, before asking anything else, they came to the house of cherry
"You live here, miss?" - asked Jun.
"Yes, it's nothing extraordinary, but it's home" -the house of cherry looked like a small straw hut from the illustrations in the history books, only one door, without windows, but inside it had enough furniture besides a fireplace and several jars with substances of different colors, the cherry hut was one of many in the area, surrounded by green grass and abundant hay, which is its main food apparently, it looked very beautiful if you asked, it seemed a scene from a village of a movie or video game.
"Most of the ponies must be at the campfire, we could go later and see if the village chief knows what to do with your ... situation" -cherry told jun.
"It's fine, lady, and do not worry about the food, Mr. Rabbit and the other animals helped me to find food as well" -Jun explained when he saw that cherry was approaching the hay of a table.
"Are you okay with that? You're not hungry? It's no problem, seriously." I try to convince him.
"Seriously, it's okay, we could see Mr. Rabbit while, he needs more help" -explained Jun.
Reluctantly I accept the mare, so I check the poor rabbit who was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
Meanwhile, Jun was walking around the small hut, quite simple actually, so, he tried to see what else he could do with his new powers, so he closed his eyes and concentrated on his surroundings, almost instantly, he could feel the flow of the "magic" in his environment, every particle, every atom could feel it, say that it stunned him is a euphemism, but he calmed down breathing slowly, the technique he developed to control his nerves when his younger brothers got out of control, so returning to its environment, I try to see what would happen if the flow returned more...vivid, the difference between the forest and the hut was not only the color of the environment, the way in which the different points moved, animals were points of light of different colors, even certain "rare" trees, cherry had a quite calm flow, but it burned more than Mr. rabbit, so while playing with the flow of the hut, he try to see how far he could modify it, when, after a while he sat satisfide for his work, then he open his eyes, just to see the former hut of twigs was now a beautiful tree very large and hollow, leaving the owner's things intact, it looked like a tree house, when he turned to see the others, he found cherry and carrots totally surprised by the show of power.
"Jun ... how did you do that?" - asked the mare slowly, never had that feeling, knew the magic of unicorn and zebras, but the power that emitted the colt was something unique, even when she can not feel the magical flow, could feel that the magic of jun not It was normal, I could feel the magical movement flow from the environment, and not the magician, also jun is a pony of earth, not a unicorn.
"Well ..... I just thought it would be better to give more life to your house?" -Jun feared to have annoyed his first known pony for disturbing his house, thought well, he had to ask permission before, he regretted not thinking about it best.
Meanwhile, Mr. Rabbit almost fainted, now they knew that Jun is not normal, what could he do??!!
"Toc-toc" -is heard someone knocking on the door, a freshly polished door, to the desperation of the mare.
"Yes? .........." - cautiously asked.
"All right cherry ?, I have to worry about the show you rode in your house?" - That voice was apple pride, chief of the town, the mare thought that a tree large enough to house 15 ponies growing in 30 seconds was a legitimate concern.
"Well, not exactly, please come in" -she answered cherry, she did not know what else to do, from a quiet morning she transformed into a crazy day.
"Could you explain how you did this ?, If you could replicate it, you would make the life of many very happy ponies" -the mayor and the town could not afford to go to the forest for wood, so they had to conform with simple huts that did not protect Very well from the cold and the rain, so a tree house is a blessing.
"I was not the one who did it, I'm an apothecary, not a magician" -she replied dryly cherry, she did not like to confuse their work with magic, but she felt a bit of pride to be compared to a magician.
"If it was not you, who?" - the mayor had not noticed yet of the small poni, he go unnoticed in such a large place in which they were.
"went I.... mayor, I'm sorry, I did not want to damage the house of Miss Cherry, I just wanted her house to be more alive" -the fearful replied, he did not like to cause any problems.
"Well, what do we have here? What's your name, little one?"
"Jun, Miss Pride, a pleasure in knowing her" -contested Jun with a radiant smile, but still afraid.
"Jun, I have not seen you in the village or anyone else, youre lost?" - asks the mare, it would not be the first time that a new pony appears in the town, since it is in a place far from other settlements and the roads go through the neighagra forest.
"I woke up in the forest, but the animals helped me for a while"
"I suppose you have no family in the town ?, or in some other?"
"PRIDE!!!" - I scream cherry, the mayor was chosen for his good sense of duty, besides being the most ready ponies he has known, but he lacks a lot of tact when talking, and cherry was afraid that she could hurt the little colt.
"No lady, I have no..... nobody but Mr. Rabbit, but I'm fine like that" -sun somberly replied, always proved happy for his brothers, but at times he wondered how is the feel of lovely family.
While she had a thoughtful look, she sighed with a small smile.
"Well, now you will be with us small, but you can not be without a caregiver, and I think I know who could take care of you" - said while turning to cherry.
"Me?!" - Scream cherry.
"Who else? You are always working hard preparing your magic and you have never progressed with anyone, you are getting old, plus a little extra help will not be bad for you, this little one is special and does not know anything about the world, so you will have to help him "-she answered, Jun did not know how she could know that she did not know much about the world, without a doubt she was very insightful, she reminded a certain person, monica, her sister of the same age, she could never lie to her, and she always knew When someone else lied or kept something, it gave chills to think that in front had its equivalent, and an adult, that is worse.
"bu-but is ok ?, i dont know nothing to that!" - she replied
"Do not you want me here, miss?" - asked Jun with his ears on his head.
"No-no, that's not it, it's just that I would not know how to take care of you" -he answered meekly.
"Just feed him and point him in the right direction, he's a young stallion, not a baby," the mayor said.
"could help in the village and in your work miss cherry" - said jun enthusiastically, it could be your chance to have a family!
"Well !, I'll wait for you at the campfire, there I'll introduce you to the town"
"Ok, Jun, would you like to stay with me?" - Cherry asked.
"I would love" - said Jun with radiant eyes.
"Just tell me cherry and leave the" Miss ", yes?"
"yes!"
"......... it was better than I thought" -sugited to himself the Lord Rabbit who had been watching with terror the scene before him.
"So that's why I ask about the tree?" - Jun had been hearing how they had been in a difficult situation every year in this town, the cold made them sick in winter, and the rain was not constant, so there was always a little of scarcity, it saddened him to see that even with his intention, things did not go as well as he wanted, he understood that no matter how much power you have, he could not help or make everyone happy.
"That's why the mayor is going to help me prepare the winter medicines, and the lack of rain threatens to dry the harvest, so most of the ponies go to the waterfall for water" - a cherry le dolia la head thinking about the work that was missing, although things are not so tetricas, and never have been fortunately, it is always a lot of work.
"That's why it's the campfire, there everyone distributes the tasks" - finished jun.
"well ... yes" - over time, cherry realized that Jun is quite intelligent, easily understood the problems of others and the situation, it might be a good idea to have his help, he can also use magic.
Jun knew that the campfire was similar to the "reunion" in his orphanage, distributing the tasks and discussing the problems was something that his teacher Dolores taught him.
Soon they came to the campfire, there were about 50 ponies, some more, some less.
"-then then the collectors will be there, now, about the water collection, we will need more this time, we have a new member in the town, so now there will be 15 ponies" - declared the mayor
"someone new?" - someone in the crowd asked.
"Yes, a colt of land, and he has nowhere to go, so now cherry is going to be his caretaker, so I want everyone to give him a good welcome, besides he is an orphan, so measure your words" - declared Pride, with accusing looks from the ponies.
"talking about" she muttered "up little one"
paying attention, Jun went up to the stem where the mayor was.
"h .... hello, my name is jun, I am in your care" - he declared in a firm but nervous voice.
"Jun is going to help cherry, so his activities are under his charge, nobody else will tell him anything" - the mayor declared, he knew that with the skills of Jun, he could do something good, maybe improve the life of the people.
Jun did not know why he did not say anything about magic, so maybe it's something to keep it safe for now.
"By the way Jun" - she whispered - "could you do something similar to the cherry house in the other houses ?, would be very helpful for winter" - she asked.
"yes, I can"
"Very well, ALSO ONE MORE THING" - she shouted at the dispersing crowd.
"i think not"-he said in his mind
"Jun can do magic, do not ask why or how, it is something unique to him, so his cutie mark can declare, so he will modify the houses, similar to what happened previously, and if the above does not I clarify, yes, he was the responsible "- she had clarified that it was the house of cherry the huge tree on the edge of town, but nothing else, the ponies had absolute confidence, their wisdom and intelligence always proved to be accurate, so for that if she said "all good", nobody questioned.
"is ... ok, amm, could you go to the edge of town to do it ?, Maybe it's better, to do it all together and not house by house" - said Jun, while Mr. Rabbit fainted.
"Okay, you heard!" - shouted the mayor.
while Pride, Cherry, Jun and the rest walked to the edge of town, Pride spoke with him.
"Are you sure it's okay? I do not want to seem to take advantage of your skills, but it would be of great help to others" - the mayor did not like the idea of asking for a complete remodeling of the village to a newcomer, a Colt, if he had not seen his power, it would never have occurred to him to ask for help.
"It's okay, it's not difficult, so I have no problem, I'm also happy to help!"
the mayor and cherry shared worried looks, they knew that Jun is someone pure, so at least they would try to give him a home, a family.
"Do you know if he've always been like this, carrots?" - Whisper cherry.
With signs, Mr. Rabbit responded.
"What do you mean you do not know? Did not you feed him for a while?"
Mr. Rabbit moved his little hands more.
"Asleep ?, Asleep from?"
With a last attempt to explain to the new caretaker of Jun the situation of him, I explain calmly the details.
"Asleep ...... for ...... a long time ... what do you mean whit..." - Cherry did not finish when they reached the edge.
"Well, mayor, I can start, if it starts to be weird, do not worry, it's normal" - he explained to the mayor, who nodded, closing his eyes began to concentrate.

JUN'S PERSPECTIVE
Jun slowly settled down in the village, saw the flow and decided to extend the root of Cherry's house to the other huts, giving more and more of her magic, similar to when you inflate a balloon, after filling it enough, he gave the tree a better shape, he remembered the images from he favorite story books, so he decided to do it as simillar as possible, so he though he could help with the harvest and the water to, so he create a nearby spring, pushing it so that it he would form a stream around the village and feed the crops without help, finishing, he decided to see his work, only to find something he did not expect.
PERSPECTIVE OF THE PONIS
When Jun closed his eyes, immediately felt the powerful magic working, the mayor was afraid of having asked for something that could do much damage, the amount of raw magic was something so powerful, that even she, everypony could feel it, the same it was for all the others, with terrified faces they saw the magic not in the colt, in the environment that surrounded them, and to the horror of cherry, he saw how his house swallowed the village, making it bigger and bigger.
then, the ground began to roar and split, revealing the massive roots of the tree, which began to move forming beautiful details, transforming the massive tree into a kind of castle sunk in the new canyon, and at its sides could see rays of light, reflections of small water points that began to sprout, creating waterfalls to fill the bottom of the empty cliff, to create a kind of clear of water, then they saw how the water began to spread to the crops that fortunately remained intact, created something similar to fields divided by small rivers that fed the harvest, and then, they saw how the tree somehow began to tremble once more, throwing a strong stream of water from the tip, to calm and flow delicately between the huge branches of the tree, creating a spectacle in sight for the little falls, with the jaws of everyone to the ground for the show, watched the foal shine in an intense, but warm light, and Gentle, to end weakly in a soft flash.

RABBIT PERSPECTIVE
".........shit"
