Letter of notice

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

It was late evening, the main six along with spike and starlight glimer sat in the teacher lounge, hoof and claw grading their student latest tests.

They sat in silence for the most part, Except rainbow dash's complaints about how board she was and that they should finish tomorrow.

But twilight was determined to finish the task at hoof.
After another roll of complaint and an eye roll from rainbow dash, Twilight opened her to lecture her on the responsibilities of a teacher.

But was interrupted by a loud belch and flash of green light.

Spike held the letter I his purple claws
"It's from princess celestia."

Twilight gasped for it had been quite awhile since celestia last sent a letter, She quickly snatched it with her magic and began to read aloud.

"My dearest twilight.
I am calling upon you and fluttershy, Too come speak too equestrias latest guest.

His name is Ezekiel and he knows little of equestria as well as we know little of his Homeland.
He is quite timid around ponies, which is the reason I insist fluttershy accompanies you to canterlout.

As I believe her skills with animals may come too be useful with our shy friend, As well as your experience with gathering and categorizing information.

A carriage will arrive too you're castle tomorrow morning.
Sincerely -celestia

Twilight cocked her purple head and humed, "Well I do wonder what he is, as it seems too be implied his kind is new to equestria?"

Fluttershy knitted her brows looking to her yellow hooves pink main falling in front of her eyes "Well I hope he isint scary... or mean. Though I am also curious of what kind of creature he is and wh-"

Rainbow dash cut her off waving her blue forelegs, "And what if it's dangerous?! Who knows what this thing could be capable off!"

Apple jack tisked at rainbow adjusting her tan Stetson with a orange hoof, rolling her green eyes.
"OH hush now dash! Ain't much tha can be a threat too three alicorn in the same place. And ah reckon he won't try nothin if he got any commonsence.

Rarity then piped up in an excited tone cloping her white whooves togeather purple main bouncing " Well I for one am excited, who knows what marvellous fashions their culture could produce!"

Pinkie pie shot off her confetti cannon, caking her pink main and coat with confetti "And I can throw him a welcome to equestria party!"

Starlight glimmer shrugged "Well all we really can do is wait and see what we are dealing with."

Twilight tossed and turned trying to fall asleep, But her mind was rushed with questions that she could not answer.

Groaning loudly she gave up and crawled out of bed, "maybe some tea will quell my thoughts."

As she drugged along to the kitchen she mauled over what tea would best suited for the job.

"definitely peppermint chamomile."

Reaching the kitchen she gazed along the tea cabnit, Only to find they were out of peppermint chamomile.

Flattening her ears she swore, "Well buck me, coffee it is then."

And turned tail for the coffee pot...

She didn't even bother with getting a cup, just took the pot as is no cream or sugar and made way for her studie.

Fluttershy kicked in her sleep whining and mumbling, "n-no go.. go away... stop."

She winced and roller over on her back,
Face contorting in fear...

She ran as fast as she could hooves feeling led filled, but the creature kept its pace.

Long legs strode unwavering as its tall form smoothly moved through the trees, Curved horns out lined by moon light and glowing eyes that pierced the shadows on it face.

She ran and ran but that had become for nothing.
As soon fluttershy found her self entangled in thorny vines unable to move.

She screamed and cried for somepony anypony to help her, as it reached its claws out for her.

"Fluttershy..."

She awoke shooting up gasping for breath, her heart pounded hard trying to bust from her chest.

On the way too canterlout twilight felt jittery, if was excitement or caffeine she did not know.

But she was deffenitly nervous of what was too come, hoping not too offend or over steep the line with her questions.

Fluttershy on the the other hoof was quiet, Which was not unusual for her but it seem different this time.

Twilight draped a purple wing over her friend and smiled, earning soft smile in return.

"Don't worry twilight, I'll be fine I'm just a little.. nevouse."

Princess celestia greeted them at the gates, Asking if their trip had gone well and if they were ready to meet Ezekiel.

Not wanting to waist time twilight gave a confident yes, And they made way for their guest.

They reached the door too his room and celestia knocked , "it's celestia, may I enter?"

"C-come in!" He stuttered, Celestia opened the door and they followed her in.

He stood at the balcony doors, tall bipedal little hair except for the top of its head, where a plain black main? Layed curling slighting around his small ears.

His skin looked smooth and was light in colour, eyes dark green framed by thick black lashes.

Fluttershy coward behind celestia, And twilight jaw was on the floor.
