July 9, 2012

Two days since my brother's birthday and I haven't left the music store. I don't know why I wasn't outside. I'm not lazy or anything, but I just don't felt like it. The only thing I did was playing the guitar while I lay on the bed; letting life go by as I play whatever came up in my mind. I don’t know if the others noticed that I’m in here this whole time. What a world!?

July 10, 2012

Today, I taken the opportunity to visit Fluttershy after what happened a couple days back. I wanted to visit her sooner, but then, I didn't want her to be more afraid of me as she was before. So today would be a good day. Besides, who wouldn't want to visit Fluttershy?

As for the visit, things went a little off handed. I approached to the house and saw her feeding her animals. I chuckled as it reminded me when Fluttershy was feeding her animals and Angel slapped her in order to get the food he wanted. Made me laughed so hard that if I was Fluttershy, I would beat the living shit out of the bunny.

Anyway, I came close to her to say hi, but the animals pointed at me in horror. She turned around and within a second, she covered herself with her mane. The animals ran away as Fluttershy began to walk backwards.

"Wait! I want to talk to you." I spoke.

Fluttershy kept on going until she touched a near by tree, which made her squeaked. She dashed towards her house in a split of a second. I went up to the door and knocked.

"Please Fluttershy. I want just want to talk."

"Nobody's home." She spoke for the first time.

"Fluttershy."

No answer.

I stand by her doorway and thought about what would I say to the pony who is weak and insecure. I thought really carefully what I was about to say. Then, I spoke.

"Alright, don't open the door for me. I understand that you're afraid of me for what I am. But, you barely know who I am. No creature should be judge by their looks, but their actions. Like, since I got here, I've ate nothing but eggs and cupcakes. No meat since the past ten days. It's all because of I made a Pinkie Promise. Never again will ever eat meat in my life. So, if you're still afraid of me, that's fine. I'll leave. If otherwise, I'll make sure that you and your little friends won't be in harms way."

Then, the door slowly opened as the shy pony peaked out.

"You'll...do that...for me?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yes."

She stared at me for a moment and opened the door wide.

"Well... I don't know."

"I'll explain that humans help animals."

That's when she began to smile.

"Okay."

So the rest of the day, I explained to her about the animals and how some humans can be helpful for them. It didn't long before the sun went down. I said good bye to Fluttershy and headed home. And that's how the day went.

July 15, 2012

Applejack gave me an offer to help her in the apple farm. I taken the offer and didn't knew what she wanted me to do. When I got there within an hour, she told me to help Big Macintosh by getting the apples from the trees and placing them to the cart. It seemed harder than it looked from the show, but I wouldn't mind the hard work. What kinda threw me off was that Applejack wanted me to help out for the next couple of days. Working about eight hours a day in the hot sun and kicking the trees was too much for me to handle, but then, I get some free apples at the end of each day. Cool huh?

After today's work, Applejack said that she was thankful that I helped around the farm. As a token of my hard work in the farm, she sucked my wonderful area. She sucked it so hard that I smacked her face for my pleasure. Just kidding. What she actually did was she given me an apple pie that Granny Smith made. I looked at the old mare and she was calm to even stare at me. The rest of the apple family just gave more apple related treats. It was delicious after all.

July 16, 2012

Today, or perhaps moments ago, somepony decided to burn down the music store. That's right! Somepony tried to kill me. How was this possible!? The show never killed anyone on or off camera. If they did, it wouldn't be like this dark at all. Unbelievable!

I got myself out of the fire with my belongings and stared at the building, burning down to the ground. The flaming building reminded me my house. No, it was my life on that house. All the good memories from the place I called home, gone by the flames. Then, a tear rolled down to my cheek and to the ground. I squeezed my rosary just how much pain I had and will be never recovered in time.

After the entire building caught on fire, the firefighters came as I began to leave to find a place to sleep. I would've stay and answer questions about the fire. They'll think I caused it, but as tired as I was, I didn't had the energy to stay. I guess I have to sleep on the ground for the night. :(

July 17, 2012

After what happened last night, the whole town was blaming me for burning down the abandoned building. I told everyone that it wasn't me, but everypony didn't believe me. The only ponies that did believe me was the Mane Six and Spike. They tried to convinced them to believe, there was no hope.

So, the ponies of Ponyville said that I must leave and never return. Twilight wanted to me to stay, but the mayor of Ponyville told her that either he leaves or the six ponies goes with me. This town really hated me so much.

"You can't do that!?" exclaimed Twilight. "Ponyville is our home."

"I'm sorry, but it's either one or the other." said the mayor of Ponyville.

"This is insane!" yelled Pinkie Pie. "He made a Pinkie Promise!"

"Yeah." said Rainbow Dash. "Nes can't leave Ponyville and you know Pinkie Pie."

Some of the ponies looked away in shame. I knew in that moment I had to make a sacrifice. Either leave or let the Elements go. If I stayed, the Elements would leave and would cause Princess Celestia to come and take me instead of the Mane Six leaving. It was a lose-lose situation.

"No you guys." I spoke. "Don't risk your homes for me. I'll go."

The Mane Six looked at me.

"You can't leave Ponyville." Pinkie got all close to me. "You made a Pinkie Promise."

"I know, but you have to let this slide Pinkie."

She looked away and knew that this was the reason why the Pinkie Promise had to be broken. No pony wouldn't dare to break a Pinkie Promise. If they did, they would have reason why they did so. According to my prospective, I read fanfics that if anyone broke a Pinkie Promise, Pinkie Pie would get you back when you least expected. Hope she doesn't do it to me.

"But where would you go?" asked Rarity.

"I don't know where." I looked at the mountains. "But I'll be okay on my own."

So the Mane Six said their farewell and I started to walked away from Ponyville. I looked back and saw my new friends that I just made for the past weeks, looked sad like if their puppies died. For the first time in my life, I've never knew cartoon characters would be sad to watched me go and I kinda taken it personally. I cried just when I reached three miles down the road. Man, I needed to man up.

Well, the only positive thing that happened was that I found a railroad that led up to the mountains, which meant Cantorlot. Without even having a thought about it, I went on the track and it led me directly to the city. It taken me about six hours to get here and thank God that it was night time when I got here. The soldiers were asleep as I passed by them sneakily. I managed to get to the palace's garden without being spotted. Heh, I'm like Snake, except that I'm not here to kill anyone. I hope Princess Celestia won't mind if I crash into her place.

July 20, 2012

I was definitely wrong about Princess Celestia letting me staying at the palace. Like, I haven't even had the chance to met up with the princess. Thanks to the Royal Guards, I'm now a fugitive in Equestria. It all started on that fucking morning.

I woke up from the garden and found out that I was surrounded by the Royal Guards. At first, they seemed puzzled because they never saw a human before in the gardens. And when I got up, they froze in their place. I looked at each one of them as I grabbed my stuff. That's when things turn for the worse.

After I grabbed my stuff, one of the guards commanded me to put down my stuff. I responded and immediately went from puzzled to startled. They pulled up their spears and all of them were pointed at me. They commanded me again to put down my stuff. I didn't do as they told and they tried to arrest me. Despite there was many guards in the area, I made the dumbest, but yet the wisest decision by running from them. It taken an hour just to get them out of my tail. Boy, it was one hell of the run. And if that's not worse, well, things were just getting started.

I managed to get to the garden place where there was statues of ponies and of course, Discord. I looked at every statue there was and I was amazed. When I got to Discord, I stared at it for awhile. He looked the same ever since the Mane Six defeated him in the beginning of season 2. I couldn't imagined if I was Discord. I would lose my mind.

As I stared at him, the Royal Guards found me and started to chase after me. Again, I outrun them and hid myself in an alley in Cantorlot till night time. When I was hiding, I heard ponies talked about their lives and stuff. I'm not nosy or anything, but hey, I'm not the only one who's nosy towards ponies. However, when the night drew nearer, they started to talk about the disappearance of Discord. As curious as I was, I grabbed a flyer that was near the place where I hid and it had the information about it while no pony was looking. And here what it said.

"Two leg creature Wanted for Burglary of the statue of Discord, the God of Chaos. May have magical powers to bring him back. The Princess has been informed and will bring the Elements of Harmony to find the Two Leg creature. The creature carries a weird sattle bag and wears clothes. Last seen in Cantorlot and it may not be far from here, but it can be anywhere in Equestria. If you seen this creature, contact the Royal Guards or Twilight Sparkle. Reward for capturing the creature: 1,000,000 bits."

I had two complaints about this flyer. First off, did a foal wrote this or what? The grammar was off, but I understood what it meant. Second, the flyer had false information. I don't have magical powers nor have Discord with me. What's even worse was that the reward for capturing me was 1,000,000 bits. Are you fucking kidding me? Everypony would go after me. This was insane.

Despite of this insanity, I left Cantorlot that night and headed towards the train station. I secretly aboard the next train and hoped it'll take me somewhere out of civilization. Luckily, the train was headed towards Appleblossa. Good news that I've heard on that day.

I arrived at Appleblossa the next night and thankfully, no pony didn't noticed me when I was on the train. I hid myself by one of the rooms in the cabin and locked it so that no pony would come in. And when they knocked, I had to use a lady's voice to make them go away. Ponies here can easily be fooled by using a different voice.

While I was on the train, I had to figured out who was framing me for the disappearance of Discord. The only possible theory that made sense was that it's the same pony who burned down the music store. The pony must've been a unicorn. Was it Trixie? Twilight? Rarity? I don't know. The only thing I knew was that the unicorn was, is, and will follow me secretly until I no longer breath or somehow go back to my world. It bothered me throughout the train ride.

After I got out of the train, I ran quietly as I could so I won't get spotted. When I reached the town, no pony was out in that time. I sighed in relief that the town was asleep. Imagined if the town wasn't asleep. Boy, I'll be done.

Then, I spotted an alley that had barrels that were empty. Despite that the fact I was tired and hungry, I approached to the empty barrels and went inside. I grabbed the top part and covered the barrel I was on so that ponies won't look. Heh, this scenario reminded me of Chavo de Ocho (Chavo the Eighth), an old spanish show I used to watch. So many memories.

The next morning came and I was so hungry that I'll eat an entire apple pie. I had to find some food soon and quick. So I got up from the barrel and saw that there's Applejack's cousin's farm in the distance. As hungry as I was, I needed to get there immediately.

Just before I can even move where I was, somepony noticed me and yelled out that I was here. Within three seconds, I was running for my life. Everypony was chasing me around Appleblossa like a pack of cats were chasing down a mouse. They tried to take me down with ropes and other stuff that I can't name of for about ten minutes, that's when I crossed the rail road before a train came by. It made the ponies stopped and they saw me go to the desert.

After ten more minutes of running, I stopped and rest. All of this running made me hungry and thirsty. I looked around and saw nothing. Nothing but dirt and hills. I could've gone back to town, but I wouldn't wanna make them chase after me. Unless I go at night, but I forget where was Appleblossa. So there goes my opportunity to get back to civilization.

Three hours later, I saw a shadow that looked like a pony passing by me. I looked up and it was a gryphon . Without even knowing who it was, I yelled for help and what do you know, it stopped and came towards me. I looked closely as the gryphon was coming and I finally who it was. It was Gilda, Rainbow Dash's ex-friend.

She came down and stared at me.

"Uh. Am I seeing things?" wondered Gilda.

"Nope. You're not." I replied.

Just like that, she was surprised from my voice.

"Whoa! You could talk!?"

"Yeah."

"Cool. I never thought aliens were real."

"I'm a human by the way."

"Human? You look like a hairless ape."

"Heh. Nes is the name."

"Gilda and I'm a griffin, half lion, half eagle."

And so forth, we ended up talking about our worlds and such. She told me that she was on her way to Appleblossa to get some things for personal use. And I thought that she would knew about me, but I guess she must've been on of those ponies -er griffins who didn't care about the news. Funny how she was missing the opportunity to get one million bits. Good for her.

Then, I noticed she was carrying a bag of items. As thirsty as I was, I asked if she had any water. Luckily, she did. She gave me a container full of water and I drank nearly half of it. Man was I ever thirsty.

"So did you just come here from a ship?" she asked me.

"No. I...I got hit by something back at my world and next thing I knew, I woke up in Ponyville."

"Ponyville huh?"

"Yeah."

"Mmm..."

I looked at her and she was a bit sad. I was confused at first, then I realized that she missed Rainbow Dash. After 2 seasons since her appearance on the show, I guessed that Gilda wanted to return, but never had the courage to do so. If only there was a way to do so.

"But, you're out here in the desert?"

One story later.

"Dude. You've got find that pony who framed you. It isn't right for you to just to be out here."

"I know, but who will believe me?"

"I believe you."

I hugged her after she said it. It was awkward, but I don't really care. After the awkward hug, she offered me a ride to the train station back at Appleblossa. It was once in a life time opportunity and I accepted it. The ride was awesome because I saw the sun going down, the wind blew right at me, and I was riding on Gilda. The experience was awesome.

After we reached the train station, we said our good bye as I got on the back of the train. When I got on, I waved at her and she waved back. I felt like crying because it was the first time that I talked to anyone in these past few days. And it was Gilda. She must've changed shortly after she left Ponyville. Why can't ponies be more assertive like her? And I hope she reunites with Rainbow Dash after all this time she was gone. Good bye, friend.

July 22, 2012

I got off the train in Ponyville and noticed that everypony was going to Town's hall. And the reason why I was in Ponyville because of I wanted to see my friends again. Though I was banned by the ponies and the mayor of Ponyville, they're my friends and I wouldn't let anypony stopping me. Wait they're looking for me. Well, I don't really care about it. Would they turn me in or not?

The ponies were going to Town's Hall because of the Royal Family was there. The three princesses, Prince Blueblood, and Shining Armor were there for some special meeting that the ponies of Ponyville arranged for them. This was the perfect opportunity to tell them I was framed for a crime that I didn't commit at all. It was a good idea, so I thought.

I marched in there like a brave man and when I went in there, everypony was staring at me. Some gasped while others whispered as I walked down to the Royal family. Many things popped up in my mind. I wanted to say that I was being fraud, but just as I near Princess Celestia, the royal guards suddenly tackled me down. I yelled out the words I wanted to say as the guards tied me up and put me into a wagon. Once it was done, I saw the mane six coming out of the hall and came towards me. I put my hands out as the wagon began departed to Cantorlot. I was hoping that I'll touch Twilight for one last time, but the wagon started to fly, which it caused me put my hands back in.

After the ten minute trip to Cantorlot, the guards escorted me to the dungeon. For what I knew, there was no dungeon mentioned in the show. Matter of fact, I've never knew how the justice system worked her in Equestria. Probably, it was similar to the United States justice system. Then again, the justice where I came from was fucked up. So I guessed the Equestra justice system would be fair I believe.

I entered the dungeon and it seemed a bit more "cleaner" than I thought it would be. There were no chains, the floor was clean, the walls were painted white, and more things you would find in a prison cell. I never thought ponies would never get arrested. Weird, but the land is in peace.

The Royal Guards let me kept my stuff because it was clothes only. Also, they said that the princess and their captain will come tomorrow to negotiate the where abouts of Discord. I told them that I don't have him and they didn’t believe me. So they let me alone in this nice looking prision cell where I'm here in my thoughts.

Things are going like a roller coaster to me and I hope tomorrow won't be any difficult as it was.
