When two worlds meet. Beginnings.

“That’s enough food for everyone, okay,” said Felipe.

“Yep. It feels good, and it feels like I am full,” said Gabriel.

“Where is Alfredo,” asked Julio.

“He said that he’s gone scouting and looking for whatever. He’ll be back shortly,” answered Sebastián.

“Ah, that’s cool, that’s cool,” said Julio.

“Anyways, in what part of One Piece were you,” asked Hugo.

“Oh, dude, I’m that part in the anime were Zoro encounters the black dude who says “I have a 0% chance of being defeated” and Zoro started getting assblasted by this nigga,” said Julio excitedly.

“That’s good shit. We’re gonna spoil the fuck out of it though,” said Hugo with a grin.

“No you fucking won’t! I’ll fuck you over before you can say shit,” threatened Julio.

“Watch me do it, fucker,” answered Hugo.

“Hey! Don’t say shit! I’m not even in that part yet,” said Sebastián.

“Hey guys, I think I found something,” said Alberto, appearing between the bushes.

“What is it,” asked Felipe.

“You remember that chicken that Julio and Hugo mentioned earlier? I saw her flying through the sky. And you know the traps? Well I think I found one,” said Alfredo.

“No fucking way, already? What the fuck,” said Samuel.

“If Julio’s right, being that they have a crap ton of traps and guards, then we must move already,” said Gabriel.

“But I also found something else,” said Alfredo.

“What is it,” asked Hugo.

“Come on everybody, I gotta show you. It’s safe all the way through,” said Alfredo while waving his arm.

The boys looked between each other.

“Nah,” said Sebastián.

“What? Come on, it’s only fifteen minutes,” said Alfredo.

“Stop with that bullshit, man. We are not all gonna walk fifteen minutes just because when you could simply tell us right away,” retorted Samuel.

“But- But-... You know what? Fine. It was a whole acre filled to the brim with apple trees. That way we won’t have to get to the village every fucking time we run outta food. Fucking killjoys. Now give me a goddamn apple,” said Alfredo angrily, and he picked up an apple aggressively.

“Shit, that’s a great find! How big is the acres and the apple trees,” asked Julio.

“Honestly? The apple trees themselves are pretty small, but the acre is huge. Seriously, it would be very hard for them to trap us in there,” said Alfredo while munching on the apple.

“That’s cool,” said Felipe, and they all fell into a comfortable silence, enjoying each other’s company.

The night wasn’t really chilling, it was actually kinda nice. They did not knew how to make a fire, so they used the flashlights of their mobile phone’s. They tried to call someone through the mobile phones, but they couldn’t even find a single WiFi bar. That much was to be expected, so they were little more than flashlights and music producers that they didn’t put to save battery.

Suddenly, a sob was heard.

“Sebastián,” asked Hugo to the kid who started to cry.

He did not respond, he just kept on crying. Then another sob was heard. This time it was from Alfredo. Then, one by one, all the teenagers started crying, and some even started wailing.

“I wanna go back home. I don’t want to be here. I-I want to go back with my parents. My mom lost a sister recently because of that stupid virus, and now she m-must be so worried because I’m not there. I must be there for her. I ha-have to go back,” said Hugo between cries.

“I promised th-that when I came back, I would help my brother in ho-homework. A-And I have to help m-my family at the farm. Th-They cannot do everything by themselves,” exclaimed Sebastián, and the tears started falling to the ground.

“Tomorrow w-as the birthday of my d-dad, and I c-cannot be there for him. He w-was so excited to see me, bec-ause he was out of Spain because of work, and he couldn’t come ba-back because of th-the virus and-and-and we were gonna celebrate through the computer, and-and-and,” Alfredo completely broke out in tears, and he covered his face, not finishing his sentence.

“I promised to st-start watching Naruto with my s-sister when I came back, an-d she was so-o excited. I ev-even promised to draw her in that Nar-uto style, and now I may never see her ag-again,” said Julio, and he began to cry with his face to the sky and the tears turned into rivers.

“M-My mom said she would make my f-favorite food whe-n I came back, I love my mom and d-dad so much, I w-want to see t-them ag-again. They may not l-love each other, b-but I love them so much, and t-they must be so w-worried for me-e-e-e. This i-is not fa-fair,” said Samuel, dampening his glasses and turning his face red.

“I want to s-see my mom again. My dad d-died months ago, but s-she needs me. And I-I need her. I want to go back t-to play videogames with my b-brother, and I want t-to go back h-home,” said Felipe while his long hair covered his face.

“I want to go back to S-Spain and school. S-school was hard, but I would d-do a million e-exams than to be he-here. And a-all of this was b-because of me, because I c-couldn’t defend m-myself against those id-idiots,” said Gabriel, sobbing and crying as much, if not more, than everyone.

The group cried and continued crying, comforting each other and crying in each other’s shoulders. They continued crying, until they fell asleep. Of course, they turned of the flashlights, and they had to sleep together because the night had gotten a bit chillier, but they didn’t utter a word.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was a nice morning. The birds were chirping. Squirrels jumping from tree to tree. Thankfully, NOT a bear there this time. The sun rained sunlight, which sounded quite funny. All the boys were starting to wake up, and were now a lot more distressed.

“So, uhhh, about last night,” said Sebastián.

“Dude, there is no problem. True chads crie on their friends shoulders,” said Julio while smiling.

“Hah! I guess so,” answered Sebastián.

“But it was kinda gay that you guys had to sleep together. I, the chadest of chads, slept with only my sweater and pure raw manliness,” said Hugo, while making a pose and making his voice incredibly cocky.

“Right. The chadest of chads who was shivering all the time and finally, when it thought that everyone was sleeping, came back to the group to share some heat,” said Felipe with a grin.

“I don’t know what you are talking about,” said Hugo, making a snobby voice.

They all chuckled for a bit.

“We have to get moving, that chicken and it’s pussy guards may start putting traps everywhere, and we don’t want none of that gay shit,” said Samuel.

“Yeah, but we cannot move too far of the acre, cause we may loose it and we suck at surviving,” said Felipe a bit more serious this time.

“Hmmm, that is right. What con we do,” asked Gabriel.

They all thought for ideas and plans.

“I got one! How about we take hostages, kill one of them to show we are not fucking around, and get everything we want,” said Samuel in a joking manner.

“That might just work, but let’s think of other alternatives,” said Alfredo.

“Can you remind me again why we don’t go balls deep to the forest? We could grab some apple seed, plant them, wait a couple yeaaaaa, that one never mind. But why though,” asked Hugo.

“Because, apart from no food, there was a bear, whoever bitchy it was. There might be mountain lions, and those don’t fuck around,” said Sebastián.

“Wait a fucking second, what can we actually do? Now that I think about it, we can’t do shit. We can’t go deeper to the forest, as already said, we can’t fight them upfront, since they are a lot and are armed, we can’t stay, since we will be trapped, and we can’t all sneak around safely, since, well, they are a lot. What the fuck can we do,” asked Gabriel.

Realization dawned the group.

“Goddamn you, Gabriel,” bluntly said Felipe.

“Move the cargo gently, you birdbrains,” shouted general Sharp Slice.

General Sharp Slice was in a bad mood. She has been assigned to trap some weird creature from the Everfree just because some random pony got hurt. That’s it! One of the best monster trappers in the royal palace, and her assignment was to trap a creature that probably wasn’t as dangerous as a manticore. And she had to follow the orders of that purple Princess, who had used that terrible term “everypony”. But, to be fair, she had corrected it, unlike so many snobby nobles in Canterlot. But she was still mad. And she absolutely hated the name of the place. Ponyville. Could there be a more “Hi, welcome to this place were we don’t like you because you aren’t a pony, so get fucked!” name? Still, this was her duty, and she had to do it.

Oh boy, and here comes smarty brains.

“Report,” said the slightly taller than average for a pony, but tiny for an alicorn, Princess.

“We are moving all the gear and traps so that they may be easy to access to, and we are settling just outside Ponyville,” Sharp Slice professionally said.

“Good. Sorry I was late. I had to attend to the School of Friendship,” said Twilight.

Oh right! They had a school! And about friendship, no less. How would they teach there? Is it like “be good, be honest, be kind, yade yada yu”? And she was being bossed around by a teacher! What had she done to deserve this. Apart from some shady jobs for Celestia.

“There’s no need to worry. We are already placing some traps in the forest, so-“

“You already entered the Everfree Forest without my permission?! It’s dangerous, someone could get hurt,” interrupted Twilihght.

That little brat! Like she knew how to trap monsters.

“Excuse me, Princess, but we were just laying some traps on the forest, there is nothing to-“

“No. You must inform me about everything that happens from now on, is that understood,” asked the Princess

That little bitch!

“I’m sorry princess, but I have more military knowledge and training than you do. Don’t interrupt me,” said Sharp Slice when she watched the Princess opening her mouth, which she closed inmediatly. ”I think that I know how to handle the situation better than you just ‘cause you read some books. So, let me manage my troops however I want and leave me be,” said the griffin while jabbing a blunter claw in the ponies chest. She walked past her.

“No,” said the Princess.

“What did you say,” asked Sharp Slice dangerously.

The Princess turned around and looked at the face of the griffin.

“I said no. Don’t interrupt me,” said Twilight when she saw the griffin opening her beak, which she shut. “Even though you may not like it, I’m your superior, so you follow my orders and inform me about everything that you do. And you know why I take this seriously? Because somepony got hurt badly, and I don’t want that to happen to anyone. So, if you think you can just trot all over me, then you are sorely mistaken. You will know follow my orders. Is it understood,” asked Twilight in a equally dangerous tone.

“Crystal clear, ma’am,” said Sharp Slice.

“Good. Now get back to putting those traps in the Everfree now that I gave you permission,” said the Princess.

Twilight then trotted off. Sharp Slice had to admit she had a nice flank. She went back to screeching instructions to the ponies.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight was just about to round the corner.

“Just a little bit more,”, she thought.

When she just rounded the corner and was out of sight, she started hyperventilating. Sweet Celestia, she just went face to face with a griffin general! But she did it because it was a good cause, so she did not regret it at all. In fact, she smiled a little bit to herself and went home whistling that day. She felt pretty good, and it was a good day.
