and 3- AAH!

?

"Um..."

I was frozen. As soon as I said 'one' I couldn't feel anymore. There was no up or down, left or right, just... Void. As I regained general consciousness, I was laying down outside. I didn't have any clothes on! What if someone sees my wings! That's the easiest thing to hide, because my horn is on my head and all, so whenever I went out, and someone asked, i stuck with being a unicorn.

I opened my eyes and looked around, but I couldn't get up yet. Nobody was there, and I was next to a building that looked like some sort of office, but also like, um, a lighthouse? I don't really know. Forget about hiding, I need to go find help. Maybe there are ponies somewhere here. I saw what looked like a huge green mountain in the distance compared to the rest of the scenery with some buildings nearby, So I got up and walked over there. I wasn't really good at using my wings to fly, since I have to hide them all the time. I got up and began to walk over to the strange mountain, and I saw some ponies near a river.

There were 3 of them, one was yellow with a red bow in her hair, the other was orange with a purple mane, and the last one was white with pink hair. They didnt seem to notice me, and the orange one had what looked like a fishing pole in her hands.

"Uh, excuse me?"
"One second" said the one with the pole.
"Can't ya just go down there? It isn't that deep ya know"
"No way am I going down there, you do it!"
"But ah have to go soon! I have chores to do. You know that"
"Well why doesn't sweetie belle go down there?"
"My sister just did my mane, scootaloo. She would be mad if I got it wet!"

I didn't know what they were going on about, but as I got closer I saw at the bottom of this river there was a gold ring. It had a faint pink light coming from it, and I realized I could just pick it up from right there. So I levitated it with my magic, and handed it to one of them.

Turns around "Oh, thank yo-"
Then they stopped. I didn't know how common alicorn were in this whole new world, but when they saw my wings AND horn, I guess I got my answer.

"Wait," said who I assumed was scootaloo
"Are you... An alicorn?"
"Um, yeah, I was going to ask how-"
"Applebloom!" Yelled somepony in the distance, getting closer. They had a cowpony hat on with an orange coat, and they didn't look too happy.

"Why aren't ya at home? Didn't ya finish that project twilight gave ya already?"
"Uh, sorry applejack, ah just got distracted, then we had an argument, and now this pony's asking for our help-"
"That's nice and all, but next time try to hurry it up. Ahm gonna be leaving soon, so you and Big Mac-"

She finally stopped to look at me, and at first she looked confused, and that confusion turned into surprise, and I'm just standing here nervous.

"Wait, are you..."

After a minute of explaining what seemed as to be an impossible story, they stared at me for a moment, then applejack spoke up.

"Well, um, I know someone who might be able to help ya."
"Really?"
"Yeah, applebloom and her FRIENDS were headed there NOW, wern't ya?"
"Uh, yeah, hehe."

After that, they led me right to where I was going actually, to the strange mountain. There was a detour somewhere and we got to the side of it, I cant remember more details about it, but when we got there, I couldn't believe what i saw.

There was a huge crystal tree on the other side, and some strange stacked houses next to it with the same color scheme. As I got closer, I could make out some buildings coming out of the top like a big treehouse, and a flag. The tree was light blue, purple, pink, and gold. it was bigger than I'd like to think about to be honest.

As we were going there, they told me their names and I thought I was the only one with a 'strange' name like that. They were nice actually, and a lot more understanding than people in my world.

We were halfway there when I saw someone come up behind us. She was a yellow pony with a pink mane and teal eyes. It was then that I noticed that her and applejack's cutie marks were glowing. She saw the three other ponies I think, but didn't pay me any attention.

"Hi fluttershy,"
"Hi applejack, I hope I'm not running too late?"
"Ah, we probably are, I had to fix some things at the farm. I hope twilight isn't too mad at us"
"Me too, we should probably hurry then."
"Right, How about you girls go to the school of friendship while we're gone?"

"Really?" I think applebloom asked.
"Yeah, ahm- well, not you, applebloom. You go on back to sweet apple acres where I need ya."
"Aww, do I have to?"
"Yes, In fact you shoulda been there earlier."
"Shoot" She said then trudged off."

As she and the others left, fluttershy looked over and we stopped moving. That's when she noticed me, She turned to face me, then she looked confused, and that turned into realization, then surprise- then embarrassment?

"O-oh, um I Hadn't r-realized you b-brought a new f-friend.."

She said hiding behind her mane. She had a quiet voice and didn't fly very fast, so I guess she was just shy. I don't know. Ever since I came here and met these 5, I haven t really expressed or said anything. I think its because I'm not really used to doing so. What if I'm just shy? I never thought about it that way, I always considered myself introverted, but I do tend to stumble over my words and stay away from people. But That's just because I have to- right?

"Uh, hi, my name is Lights.. Flickering lights."
"Oh, hello."
Awkward Sounds of Silence
"Uh, me and fluttershy have to go, so how about you go wait somewhere around here. Ill have twilight meet with ya soon."
"Ok," I said, and with that I walked off to the buildings near the mountain, inspecting everything I could see. There was too many decorations and fancy things for me to describe, but just know that it was... Very big and sparkly. I didn't really know where to go, so I-

"Uhh... Hello?"

I turned around, and there was a.. Creature behind me. She looked like a small bug-like pony with insect wings, luminescent big eyes, and a sharp horn.

"Oh, hi.."
"Um, can I get inside?"
"Oh yeah, sorry."

As I stepped aside, she walked in then stopped to examine me.

"I don't think I've seen you around here."
"Yeah, I'm kind of lost."
"Lost? Are you supposed to be somewhere or..."
Here it comes
"Wait- Are you an Alicorn?"
"Yeah, its a long story. I actually-"
"Oh, hi occelus!"

I turned around again, (facing outside the school) and there was another new creature, this one was also like a pony, but she had claws, a beak and feathers, was light pink, and had wings."

"Oh is this your new friend?"
"Well, actually-"
"Hey guys!"

This just keeps getting weirder. I feel like I'm going to be meeting a lot of new creatures here. This one was like the last, with feathers a beak and claws, but he didn't have wings, and his tail was less feather-y. Also, the first one disappeared.

"Oh cool, a new pony. I'm Gallus, and- wait..."
"What's up guys."

Didn't see that one coming.

There were 3 more creatures, and one was just a pony. At this point I'm starting to get nervous. There's already too many people in one space, and it's getting hot in here...

The next was a dragon, she walked on 2 legs and used her other 2 as arms, like a human. She also had orange scales and purple hair. Strangely like scootaloo...

The other was a normal earth pony with a yellow coat, and aquamarine hair. His cutie mark was three turtles, and he didn't freak out as much.

And the last one was strangest.. To me.. Her fur was covered in a lot of hair, and she had hair rings on her ears and pink bows on those. She wore a cyan tarp on her back, and she also had horns and a strange snout. She was also small, but big at the same time? Does that make sense?

After they all got here, I was confused, crowded, and ~~shy~~ nervous. I guess I had some explaining to do.


Author's Note

Well here we are again.
I made a chapter. I don't know what to think of this yet, but ill think of something. I'm going to make this story a lot better and a lot more exiting.
And one last thing, I'm going to be editing the chapters frequently because there's always one more thing i want to change for some reason. It's going to stay mostly the same though.
