After the pleasant breakfast

"So whats the surprise , i mean i gotta look out for you and Fluttershy and Twillight both want you to remain safe and calm which for a stallion isn't an issue for you well i think differently? Rainbow Dash asked

"Does the kiddo like speed and do you know any high mountains or nice places for a picnic distance ain't a problem?" William asked

"Don't answer my question with a question , but yeah in the San Palomino Desert but that's at the edge of Equestria it would take days on hoof" She replied

"Oh but we aren't going on hoof let's prepare our snack and picnic for the road" he replied

"Now i know this stallion is crazy , we'd need a camping kit and a lot of food for the trip" Scoots replied only causing William to Laugh

"What's so funny?" Rd asked

"How fast are magical ponies on hoof?" He asked with a big smirk

"Uhm trotting around 8-10 MPH , Galloping around 40 a 50 MPH for the general athletic pony" Rd replied confused at the question

"Oh ok then i'm not worried at all" He replied smirking "So why don't you two get snacks and things for the picnic maybe some friends to come along if you really want or it could just be the three of us" he said smiling

"Wait you're telling me you can go faster on those strange hooves you walk on"Rd replied a bit surprised

"Me oh dear god no but what we are going to travel with surely can" he replied

"Hey the train to canterlot can only go 60 mph so don't you start joking buster" RD replied

"I'm not joking honestly but i won't ruin the surprise or the speed limit" he replied smiling

"You got something that can go faster then a train awesome" Scoots replied

"Not just faster it doesn't need tracks and can go on dirt roads or off roads through mud and more and on hills it can also pull a lot of weight but well that isn't important" he replied smiling at the little Filly

"That sounds Awesome!!" Scoots replied

"It also sounds very dangerous" Rd replied

"Don't worry Dash it's safe now why don't the two of you get ready and maybe invite others to get along " William said smiling

"What trying to show off?" Rd asked

"Not really just thought little Scoots might want friends along and well if Twi and Flutters are so worried they can't say they weren't invited" he replied smirking

"Wait I can bring friends?" Scoots asked

"Sure why not the more the merrier" William said smiling

"Though I only have space for about 5 ponies otherwise somepony would have to sit somewhere less safe and I don't really like that idea" William replied

"You worried about ponies you don't know?" Rd asked

"Well of course , I'm worried about others their wellbeing. And well if any pony would get hurt because of my actions I'd never forgive myself and I don't want princess sunbut to have a reason to try and banish me or send me home" he replied

"You don't wanna go home?" Rd asked confused

"Why wouldn't you wanna go home Mister ?" Scoots asked innocently

"I'll tell why later but in my point of view this place is a fairy tale much better then where I'm from" he responded to Scoots forcing a smile as he went through her mane

Rd noticed the forced smile and looked at Scoots "Let's go Scoots we gotta prepare a picnic for on the go" Rd replied before dashing out of the house with Scootaloo

William started preparing food for the picnic for himself while deep in thought

After a while of preparing

"Are you insane?" Twillight shouted as she walked inside William his house

"I'm in the garage Twillight" he shouted in response

Twillight walked to William his garage

"Are you insane going out of your area with less magic we don't know what effects it might have on you , I mean you saw the effects to your body already in small amounts" Twillight replied

"I just want to see Equestria, I'm sorry if I make you worry but I can't just stay cooped up" he replied in a depressed tone

"Is something wrong?" She asked "You weren't like this yesterday"

William looks up to Twillight "it's nothing ,just thinking of things" he replied

"It doesn't seem like nothing, you can tell me what's wrong That's what friends are for"Twillight answered worried

" I'm... I'm just worried about a lot of things alright, Rainbow just well made me think of home" he replied

"Do you wanna go back , I'm sure Princess Celestia could find a way" Twillight replied

"It's just that that worries me. I don't wanna go back, honestly I'm scared I might be forced to go back" he replied with a few tears in his eyes

"Why would you not want to go home , you have such beautiful things and knowledge where you are from?" She asked while drying William his tears

"It's well ... Twillight , my kind isn't used to such major amounts of kindness or magic or even becoming friends so quickly , I'm going to hate myself for this but this place Equestria it's well so much better , you're probably thinking I haven't much yet and in a way it's true but for example where I'm from people not ponies but people aren't that caring we've caused a lot of harm even in our own lives , hell I've hurt people through my live as well so I'm the last person to deserve being here but imagine a world where most only look out for themselves and a species even without magic is capable of great harm and destruction even without aiming to do so cause honestly our world it's climate is irreversibly bucked and its not that humans can't so good or don't do good we've done much good but if you were to compare our history with Equestrian history well you'd be disgusted and be troubled as well and probably hearing this makes you worried if I'm a threat to pony kind I'm sure Celestia would be , what I'm trying to say is I wanna stay I don't wanna go back even if I could and maybe I could prevent the same mistakes humanity made here ,it's not like I had a bad life for human standards at all but I just want to stay" he replied in a sad tone while he was looking down

"I didn't expect that so you're scared of having to go back , I can't imagine why?" Twillight looked at William

"I hope you never do and as I said I didn't have a bad life for a human, but well the kindness that you ponies share and the natural beauty is almost all but lost where I come from and That's not counting well my species itself but let's just drop it alright all I want is a pleasant trip with Dash , Scoots and whoever wants to come along enjoying Equestria and the kind inhabitants to the fullest even if some worry about me being a Male too much" he replied looking at Twillight

"I.. Think I understand making a new start or enjoying Equestria to its fullest aren't you?" Twillight asked

"Well I hope too" he replied looking at her a bit teary eyed but he wipes them away

"Well I still can't let you go out of your safe home considering the difference in ambient magic" She replied

"Can you cast a spell on my car?" he asked

"Why would you want that?" Twillight asked

"To test a theory if my stuff also drain magic like I do my car should be a safe enough for me to travel in" he replied

Twillight noded and tried to levitate the car but it seeped up the magic like a sponge

"Twi, can we act like we didn't have this conversation, I wouldn't wanna ruin the mood more" William asked

"Of course , so you're really planing on going out in that metal box but how is it going to move , I mean it looks like a cart but it has no harness for any pony to pull it" Twillight asked causing William to smile

"I'll show you" he replied before driving the car out of his garage

Twillight jumps at the noise it makes and slowly follows "It really sounds intimidating is it safe?" Twillight asked William who had stepped out the car and put on his house it's security causing metal plates to slide in front of the doors and windows

"It is don't worry Twi" he replied before getting back in the car "Are you going to join me I'll need somepony to guide me where Rd and scoots are getting lectured are argued with considering they are a bit late" he replied smiling at Twillight

"Oh yeah, Applejack and Fluttershy are arguing with Dash and scoots near sweet Apple acres , Fluttershy got extremely worried when Dash said her about your planned trip" Twillight replied while getting in the car and closing the door

"Well point to the direction of sweet Apple acres?" William replied

Twillight pointed towards the direction of sweet Apple acres "it's a way through the forest and there are many trees and other things in the.." Twillight got interrupted By William giving gas like a maniac driving towards sweet Apple acres his car engine roaring like a beast as he drove over Timberwolves and smaller trees on his way to his destination

Meanwhile at Sweet Apple Acres

"What made y'all think that a road trip with a sick stallion be a good idea?" Aj asked Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo in a lecturing tone

"Yes , he was very sick yesterday and he can hardly stand any magic he could get hurt" Fluttershy said in a worrying tone

"Not to forget y'all are planning to go out with a weird stallion in something y'all don't know anything about" AJ replied

"Awe come on Aj, Scoots said he wasn't a bad stallion why can't we go" Applebloom whined

"Yeah and rarity said he had manners even if he acts weird for a stallion maybe we can get our cutie marks as alien researchers" Sweetie Belle replied

AppleJack was still trying to talk Rd and the Crusader's out of the picnic and trip but then a scary roaring unknown sound and the sounds of wood cracking could be heard from the Everfree

"What in tarnation?!!" Aj replied in shock as what seems like a black metal cart with some twigs on it drove out of the Everfree the path it blazed through the Everfree clear behind it then William and Twillight stepped out of it but William stayed near his car

"That looks so awesome" Rd shouted in surprise

"Surprise" William said

"What in tarnation is that metal cart" Aj asked looking suspiciously at William and his car

"Uhm my Car or well truck really , it can go 300 km/h which is 186,5 mp/h , it's well the ride for the picnic" William replied

The cutie mark crusader's looked in awe at the metal beast as they dubbed it

"No" the normally soft and kind Pegasus shouted at William

"You aren't going to put yourself in danger by leaving your house , you can't just go into a strange environment you aren't used to we all saw how small amounts of magic effected you so you're turning it around mister before you get sick again" Fluttershy said in a assertive and worried tone

"Actually it absorbs magic like the other stuff he came with he should be safe near it" Twillight replied as she stepped towards Fluttershy

"You heard Twillight it's safe for me" William replied with a smirk

"I didn't say that I only said near it you're safe and I still don't agree you going on a trip" Twillight replied

"Well I'll be careful Twi just let us have some fun, I know the risks don't worry" William replied before Aj walked up to him

"Yes Applejack?" William asked

"How did ya know my name partner? With big Mac on the field you could've thought that was his name partner?" Aj asked looking suspiciously at William

"Cut him some slack Aj he isn't going to do anything wrong" Fluttershy replied

No use lying to apple Jack she is the element of honesty well shit William thought as he looks to Aj and sighs "Aj the way I know things would be seen as weird or strange all I want to tell you is that I mean no harm to you or the other ponies , well unless they try to force me into things that I don't wanna do and you probably worry about the little fillies coming along with a strange creature and Rainbow so I'll put it bluntly honest , I won't harm them honestly if something was to go wrong I'd do anything I can to ensure their safety" he replied honestly

"Y'are a strange critter and stallion. You know things ye think ye better not explain but Fluttershy, Twillight ,Rarity ,Scootaloo and Rainbow see ye as a friend I hope ye be explaining it later but ye were honest so I trust ye, my name is Apple Jack partner but ye already knew that" Aj replied smiling

"Nice to meet you Aj , I'm William" William replied laughing

"I'm Applebloom , I'm Apple Jack her little sister and that there is Sweetie Belle" Applebloom said as she pointed to Sweetie Belle

William laughs at the introduction and took some skittles out of his pocket "Nice to meet you Kiddo's do you want some candy" William said smiling as he held out the bag of skittles

Scoots took the bag smiling and shared with the rest of the crusader's then Sweetie Belle stepped to William

"If you know things you normally shouldn't do you know about our cutie marks?" Sweetie Belle asked as all the crusader's looked at William with puppy eyes

Not the cute puppy eyes, I can't take it , no I can't tell them William thought then looked at the rest with a help me face causing them just to laugh

"I don't know little ones sorry" he lied replying in a comforting voice but Apple Jack noticed the lie and called William aside with the excuse of Apple's for the trip as he stepped away from his car he did get very stiff again and even had small pains but he ignored them

"Why did ya lie to the fillies William?" Aj asked with an angry face since she couldn't stand lies luckily the others and the crusader's were inspecting William his car

"Aj ,if I tell them what I do know, I'll effect it I might even change events more then I have and honestly I wanna see the joy on their face when they find it on their own sorry for lying but for something's I will have to just to keep things in well check , I don't like lying to them but in this case it's needed" he replied looking down

"Can you tell me partner , one of em is ma little sister?" Aj asked her tone much kinder and understanding now

"Sorry Aj but I can't also uhm between you and me can you keep Pinkie at bay for a while I'm not ready for well you know what she is like" he replied

"Alright partner you better only be lying for good things partner, I might not like it but ya have a good reason as for Pinkie you can count on me partner I understand if a stallion needs his well time to adjust" Aj replied with a tip of her hat but as they walked back to William his car one familiar face with two unfamiliar faces trotted towards William

William smiled as he noticed Ebony and two mares he didn't know one of them a white unicorn with a light pink mane stepped to William while the dark blue Pegasus stayed near Ebony talking with her and giggling

"Hello I'm Sol Flare , I heard from Ebony you are a new resident in Equestria it's a pleasure to meet you since you don't have a well herd mother's and we wanted to know more about you we would like to get to know you" the Unicorn said smiling holding out her hand

Sol flare, as in acronym's and words connected to the sun hmm strange William thought then shook Sol her hand "I'm William and I'm a human , a pleasure to meet you. I thought Ebony said my existence was being kept under wraps unless" William looked at Twillight this caused Sol , Ebony and the dark blue Pegasus to laugh

"I might have mentioned you in a letter to the princess" Twillight said nervously not knowing how William would respond but William just pat her head

"It's True only a few know of your existence but I think after your little trip and display here the fillies won't be able to keep it secret" Sol replied

"Well i can't get mad at the Kiddo's , I mean children bring joy to life be they you're own or not" he said smiling as the night sky blue Pegasus approached him

"Hi I'm nightlight" the dark blue Pegasus said nervously

Ok this can't be coincidence can it I mean they both have names relating to the sun and moon I swear this is , well a good development , I mean no armed guard squad is good I hope William thought "Nice to meet you Night , I guess you like star gassing or make lights for the little fillies to keep them from being scared at night which from my point of view is an irrelevant fear"

Nightlight smiles and laughs "Something like that thou .. I mean you enjoy the night to according to Ebony" nightlight said getting a nervous look from Celestia

thou?! Oh Luna hasn't gotten used to speaking to others I better defuse this situation oh, I have an idea William thought "Thou aret one who enjoys Roleplaying games aren't thou what other reason would thou have to speak in such old manner" William said smiling to nightlight

Nightlight smiled then Sol interrupted

"Yes , my sister does enjoy such games and she feels less nervous talking when talking like that I hope you don't mind?" Sol asked hoping it would work

William steps to Nightlight "if it calms thine issues then how can we not deny thour beautiful maiden from thine comfort , if thine would like to accompany us in a outdoor feast both thine presence would be welcome" William said looking at Sol and Nightlight (we all know who they are in disguise)

Nightlight blushed

Sol laughs seeing her sister smile and blush "Art thou trying to court our sister?"

That comment made William blush like a tomato "Thou art mistaken thine social conduct is different of my own if I desired to court her. I'd be resiting poetry or proving myself to woe her" William replied embarrassed

Nightlight hides her embarrassed face because of the subject of conversation

Sol just laughs and replies "Oh like the stallions of old it seems ,very well we will treat you as such and we'd both love to come along in your metal cart for a picnic" Sol replied in a kind motherly voice trying to sooth the embarrassing situation

"With 4 mares I think it would be safe for you to go on a trip" Twillight replied

"I'm sorry William I won't be able to go I Still have a lot of duties to attend to still good going Casanova" Ebony replied before flying off

After more food was taken along for the picnic Sol , Rd ,nightlight and the cutie mark crusader's went into William his car as they drove to the San Palomino Desert as he put on a song on the radio (the song : https://youtu.be/yVjjuOqMQIw yeah he ain't going to put on Brony music Yet)

William sang along with the music , the radio and music getting the attention of everypony in the car as they sing along as they drive through Equestria at high speeds passing some pony pulled cars causing them a little fright ,off road as well over rough terrain while everypony tried to sing along with different songs William put on.

Later at San Palomino Desert

Everypony seemed happy to have arrived and got out of the car which was parked near the canterlot river that flowed through the desert

"That was awesome we drove over rough mountains and rocks so fast" Scootaloo shouted happily

"Happy you liked it most kids or well foals of my kind would find a long trip boring"William replied with a nervous smile as he took out the picnic essentials out of the trunk

"Yeah but the cider will probably be hot in this weather and taste bad" Rd complained

"Dash I put that in a fridge in the car so don't worry even put the chocolate covered cupcakes in there too so it isn't molten and sticky" William replied

"Thou has a way to keep thine food well in thine transport why?" Nightlight asked

"Well back where I'm from I on the road sometimes because of certain projects for work meeting employers and well meeting's run out a lot so I made sure my food is always like I like it and its also good for vacations or trips to special events" William replied smiling

Applebloom rushed to the river and jumped in causing everypony to laugh and causing her friends to join her

"Well I didn't think of that I hope Sol Here has a spell to dry of the kiddos later" William said smiling

William helped set up a picnic spot putting down a big cloth to lay on and a umbrella against the sun he had to step back near his car his body starting to hurt because of the high amount of ambient magic

"Are you alright?" Rd asked William

"Just give me a moment" William responded as Sol went to them while Nightlight was enjoying the food brought to the picnic

"You're world must be wonderful having such contraptions , enjoying a cold cider on such a hot location and such rapid transport , you must be aching to return" Sol replied to William

"Uhm honestly I find Equestria better, but I'd rather not talk about that I mean don't wanna spoil the fun for everypony with a foul mood of me thinking about it" he replied causing the white unicorn to frown

William went in the car since the pain of the ambient magic caused his muscles to go stiff and his head to hurt again

"William!! Are you OK?" Rd asked worried

"Don't worry I'll look after our friend why don't you enjoy some time with the fillies" Sol replied in a kind motherly tone

"Yeah just have fun dash don't worry maybe go swim with the fillies" William replied smiling

"Alright but if you can't handle it we're going straight home" Rd answered worried before heading to the fillies

"You care for their happiness don't you?" Sol asked William

"Yeah as long as I see a smile on their faces I'm happy no matter the side effects of ambient magic" he replied

"You said before you didn't want to make them frown and ruin the mood when I brought up your home was it that bad you don't wanna return" Sol asked like a worried mother

"Not bad just well it's hard to compare Equestria to my home , I just find ponies more excepting and kinder then my own race and Equestria is in better shape then where I come from honestly , I'm sacred being forced to return . I mean I can see it happening my species ain't the well let's just say we don't have such a good history sure we aren't completely bad but we aren't entirely good either , we've made mistakes ,many mistakes I hope I can prevent the ponies from making the same" William said laughing

Sol looked in shock at William

"Who knows I might prevent the same mistakes repeating themselves and if I can't do that I can use the knowledge of my world here to make bits to sustain myself if my body gets used to magic that is" William said as he moved a bit wincing in pain

"Are you sure about that I mean surely not one member of a race has all their knowledge even if some will help you can't prevent the repetition of all your kind's its mistakes and well maybe they'd see you as a threat if you tell them of some of your kind it's mistakes" Sol replied

"Well I always had a good memory but since one night and a really strange dream where Luna visited me in, well I think her dream magic and well her attempt of reading my mind made magic flow directly in my brain. It felt like I was ran over by a stampede of Buffalo's but my memory seems to be better because of it" he replied smiling

"So magic is causing your body to adapt and change that it effects you in positive ways so rapidly shows your species once had magic in their world" Sol replied

"Oh dear god I hope not, my species already bucked up so much without it , well the dream I had was an accurate description of what would happen if my kind had it , I mean we tend to be violent towards each other at times and still are though not all but it makes me fear for the well being of many" he replied

"Well it's just theoretical no need to worry as for the pain that is written on your face maybe somepony thought the same as you and acted upon the threat your kind posed , no offense to you since you're actually being rather descriptive and show the honest weight of your species history and theoretical threat and seem to be one of the kind or good one's you've described" Sol said in a comforting tone

"I wouldn't call me that since you haven't seen me angry" he said before being interrupted by a scream outside William rushed out not thinking as he noticed a dragon near the river and the cmc"

"This is my Feeding grounds you ponies better scram" the dragon roared

"You're only a big bully so stop scaring my friend's and take on somepony who can defend themselves" Rd responded cocky as she stood between the cmc and the dragon

"What is going on?" William asked as he rushed to them

The dragon eyes were fixated upon William "the scourge of our past , the killer of many of our kind" the dragon roared towards William as it swiped its claws towards him in anger causing William to be send flying hitting his car breaking his arm

"Fuck!!" William shouted in pain

"Hey stop hurting my friend , you think you're pretty though Harming a stallion" Rd shouted but got swept aside by the old black scaled dragon

"You protect one of those accursed beings then you will pay" the dragon roared

"I got no bucking idea of what you're talking about but harming ponies who did nothing wrong is just foul in my eyes" William replied with spite and anger in his eyes

"Those who protect you're kind who has slaughtered many of us shall not be given anything less then treatment as foul as who they protect" the dragon shouted as it went towards Rd to end her since she could be seen as a threat but because Scootaloo was in the way it slapped Scootaloo aside

William was angered at the dragons action both Sol and nightlight stood ready to attack the dragon but both them and Sweetie Belle looked at William as they felt something strange in the ambient magic

Author's Note

Sorry for the long wait my health and work both kept me occupied :(

And sorry for the cliffhanger but It deserves a separate chapter it will be a little bit of adventure and well you can all theorize why the old dragon hates humans :p or theorise what's going on
