Well, here I am in a new village a new home I hope I have finally found a home but it's thanks to Rarity and Twilight that I could sleep well Rarity is really generous last night after I left Twilight's place I asked Rarity if I could stay with her for a while after I told her twilight sent me here. So far Rarity has been trying to fix up my coat and mane but thats impossible I don't even think ten Rarity's could fix up this crazy mane of mine but she really is such an awesome pony. I've been awake for a while now wondering how I'm going to talk to Rainbow and how she would react to the news.
"Oh Zap your up darling I didn't expect to see you up and about at this hour in the morning." Rarity was a beautiful pony with a coat of pure white and her mane of purple a bit light twilight's coat and she was so generous I would think no pony can beat her generosity
"Morning Rarity I'm just thinking of a way to find Rainbow Dash I need to tell her something important and I was wondering where a Pegasus like her would be in ponyville. Do you have any idea where she might be?"
"She might be working on clearing the sky's or still sleeping but before you go would you like some breakfast" The very second she said that my stomach growled letting me know that I haven't eaten in a while and that I would need my energy to search for Rainbow.
"Thanks Rarity that would be great can I have an omelet please." I loved omelet's nothing better to start the day with besides blueberry pancakes but I didn't want to ask her for something more than a simple omelet.
"Of course darling and while I'm making breakfast try to fix up your coat and mane you have some bed head" I was laughing at the comment she made because I know it's true my main and coat was always all over the place besides when I fixed it up but it would be spiked up either way but I was glad she was helping me out.
"Thanks Rarity I will right back" All I had to do was just wash my mane and coat with a little bit of water and then be done when I walked back down stairs Rarity had just put my breakfast on the table and then began to give her cat what was its name opalescence or something oh well I'm not that great with name's. After breakfast, I helped Rarity out before she opened up shop and I left to go find Rainbow she needs to know about the legacy.
After searching for an hour or two I ran into a pink pony the second I got up she was making sure she didn't hurt me which I wasn't. After that she just ran of into a fast sprint I was confused and amazed that such a strange earth pony could have such a weird personality and run off that fast.
After that weird encounter with that weird pony I found the market place with some pony selling delicious looking red apples I loved apples no doubt about that and lucky me Rarity was kind enough to give me a few bit's incase I got hungry.
"Howdy there pardner how can I help you today" The pony selling apple's was a mare and had an orange coat, blonde main, and a cowpony hat. She was oblivious had to be one of the farmer's on that apple orchard I saw when looking for ponyville after twilight helped me.
"Yea I would like one of those apples they look perfect" they really did they were right to the point where they could be perfect to eat and use for dessert's and other foods.
"Here you go one apple. I haven't see you before are you new here in ponyville?" I knew I would be noticed at some point today but of course I gave my honest answer to the nice mare.
"Yea first day in ponyville I wanted to move somewhere nice but not boring and I heard ponyville has had its fair share of strange event's." I heard from all over equestria that the small town of ponyville has had a lot of event's like first the nightmare moon incident and then discord showed up it was not fun when he showed up I had a pretty bad day because I was being dowsed by chocolate rain I mean really who could have thought of that besides discord."
"You have no idea oh parden my manner's the names AppleJack. What's yours since you're moving here it would be nice to know your name" I've only been in ponyville for a few hours and I was already making friends one by one? First Twilight, spike, Rarity, and now AppleJack
" The name's Zap nice to meet you." I was feeling great I knew I would like this small village
"Well, it's a nice to meet ay Zap but excuse me I have to sell these apples. Stop by my family's farm if you want to talk or if anypony is giving you problems" After I said bye and was enjoying my apple praise celestia this apple is the best i've ever had but now to get to business I have to find Rainbow
After another pointless hour the time was 11:30 A.M. I ran into a big group of bunny's which were running around all over the place near a cottage I have to say it looked very nice and looked peaceful. After saying hi to all the animal's who seemed all very tamed and not afraid of me at all. Now I have three bunnies riding on my back as I went to asked the pony in the cottage if she's seen Rainbow Dash. When I checked I got no response then I heard a peaceful humble humming i've never heard such a beautiful voice in my life and when I turned around there was a Pegasus with a yellow coat and pink mane that covered up most of her face she noticed me and seemed scared at first but then she noticed the bunnies on my back and came out of her hiding place.
"Um h-hello there is t-there something I can help you with" she was very shy and scared she must have a better way with animals then pony's and don't ask why I think this when I look at somepony and see their personality I can tell what their good at and not.
"Hello, sorry for scaring you I just wanted to see if you could help me out I'm looking for somepony and can't find her so I noticed your cottage and went to see if you knew her or have seen her. Oh before you tell me let me introduce myself the name's Zap."
The bunnies on my back gave her a go on sign and she understood she came a bit closer just a few inches and began to speak. "My name is F-Fluttershy, sorry for hiding from you when I saw you but you did look a little scary from a ways and who is it you're looking for" Well she seemed very kind and the bunnies on my back who I just remembered were on my back all fell asleep to nap so I careful adjust my wing and place them on the ground so they could sleep in peace then Fluttershy came over and looked at the bunnies then me and smiled.
"Your very good with animals zap these bunnies can be very shy when somepony new comes here but they really like you" I couldn't help but smile it was true I loved animal's but my favorite was the wolf such a fierce but dangerous creature.
"It's nothing new I love animals but to I need to find Rainbow Dash you wouldn't happen to know her do you?" Fluttershy bounced up and flew to a bit and pointed to the South near some cliff's. "She said that she was going to practice some stunt's over there and left sorry I can't help you anymore than that."
"It no problem thanks see you later" It only took me about ten-seconds to get to the cliffs I was an amazing flyer with incredible speed but I heard Rainbow was fast to and I new she had to be one to.
I noticed a rainbow trail when there was this big boom I looked up and noticed some pony had just completed the stunt the "Sonic Rainboom" something only one pony could do and that was rainbow dash I noticed her flying incredible fast but I knew I could catch up with her so I flew with a powerful flap and began to catch up she noticed me with a surprise face when she noticed I caught up with her and she made a sudden stop by I noticed when she slowed down and I managed to stop.
"How did you catch up with me I was flying way to fast for any normal Pegasus to catch up with me who are you?" Their she was the pony I was looking for.
"The name's Zap and your right no normal pegasus could catch up with you but I'm not like a normal pegasus like you here let's land and talk" She noticed we were still flying from an incredible height so we made our landing
"All right since we landed tell me how you caught up with me" I was right she knew nothing but that's why I'm here
"Rainbow Dash you and I are not like other pegasus we both have incredible speed and agility but that's not important I came here to tell you that you like me are called the "The Children of the sky" we both have an ability like you have your rainbow trail whenever you go fast and can preform the sonic rainboom but me I have the ability to have lighting around my entire body and use it to fly as fast as light and even shoot it at other's for defensive purpose's." When I was done she burst out laughing and after a full minute with here laughing she got up
"Really you think I'm a child of the sky that's just an old mare tall and show me this lighting then I will listen." Of course she wouldn't believe me so the next second my body was entire wrapped in lighting and I shot it at the cliff and destroyed a huge part of it Rainbow was stunned by the mere sight of something so powerful.
"But how? How could it be true you really are a "Child of the sky" but how did you know I would be one to?" The answer was so simple how could anyone but a "child of the sky" preform the sonic rainboom.
"Because you can preform the sonic rainboom only a 'Child of the sky" can preform it but that's based on your trait like you have your rainbow I have my lighting so I have something called the "Lighting dash" were I go so fast I can go faster than lighting itself." After a half hour of talking we left for ponyville it was currently 1:00 and both of us were hungry so we both found a place to eat and again ran into the weird pink pony who gave me a strange envelope.
"Who is that pony she sure is a weird one and but those this envelope say "Dear Zap,I'm sure you've meet Pinkie Pie already but I would ask if you could meet me at SugerCube conner tonight at 7:00 Sincerely, Rarity
"Rarity want's me to meet me at SugerCube conner I wonder why. Wait where did that pink pony go!? Oh well I guess I can talk to her when I can but now how I'm I going to kill time?" After a minute of think and after lunch with Rainbow once I got done telling her about "The child of the sky" I left to go talk with Twilight she ran the library maybe I could read a book and ask if she knows any pony's that are hiring I need a job I can't stay with Rarity forever but again that wouldn't be so bad besides all her drama moment's and her trying to fix my mane. I found myself outside the Library and then I noticed spike leaving with some book's
"Hey spike how's your day been?" Spike was hard working which I found surprising as twilight's assistant but then again I heard she was the pupil of Celestia herself so of course she would need help organizing books and what ever she does.
"Oh hey Zap so far it's been pretty boring I was just out to take these books to Pinkie Pie's place because she said she wanted more cook books about deserts and sweet's." After that spike left and I found myself inside where Twilight was checking off some things
"Ok that's good now spike should be taking those books to pinkie's place" Twilight who I found was extremely smart that made my head hurt a little but she wasn't that bad and plus I wanted to kill some time by spending time with my new friend's.
"Hey Twilight. How's your day been I see your busy but I was wondering if I could check out a book" The very second she heard I wanted to check out a book she dropped her quill and teleported in front of me"
"Really you like books to I love them so what kind of book do you want something like fiction or non-fiction?" Wow she really was excited it was written all over her face
"Well, I wanted something to kill some time so I guess I will check out a Daring doo book" She went straight for the fiction book and chose out the first book of Daring Doo I loved that books series anything with action and a good story can grab my attention.
"Here you go its due in one week enjoy and Zap I wanted to see if we could spend some more time together to get to know each other and see how your first day here has been" Twilight such a hard working student of Celestia how could I refuse she deserved some time off so we went for a walk and later Fluttershy joined us with a small white rabbit in her arms she said his name was "Angel" but he didn't look very happy about being here. We all talked for a bit while taking a break in the park I found it extremely peaceful and fun to be around my new friends.
"So Zap did you ever find Rainbow?" Oh yea i can't believe I forgot to tell them I already meet with rainbow dash and discussed about both of us being a "child of the sky"
"Yes, I did Fluttershy thanks to you I probably would have never checked the cliffs if you didn't tell me she was there." The current time is 6:45 P.M after Twilight, Fluttershy, and I talked and had a little snack with AppleJack who seems really talented with a lasso I would never want to get in a fight with her. I found my way into SugerCube conner and a sign said "Zap go upstairs'" So when I went up and found myself in a dark room"
"SURPRISE" The surprise startled me I jumped up and found myself flying just a little bit before hitting the ceiling.
"Oh wow we got you pretty good didn't we bet you weren't expecting a surprise party for you" The one they called Pinkie Pie was laughing after she and my new friends were wearing party hat's with a sign saying "Welcome to Ponyville Zap" I landed on the floor and began laughing
"Oh wow you girls are awesome you hardly even know me and you throw me a party and that was quite the surprise you girls gave me though if I didn't stop myself I would have gone threw the ceiling"
Rarity was the first to speak "It no problem at all darling you should thank Pinkie Pie first she always throws party's for new ppony's that show up in ponyville" The party was consulted of Twilight, Rarity, Rainbow dash, Fluttershy, AppleJack, Spike, and Pinkie Pie
I had gone up to pinkie and thanked her properly "Thanks pinkie I thought something was going on whenever you saw me you ran off thinking you were up to something but not a surprise party" She was jumping around with excitement and I took that as a "glad you like it" the party was great and all of us were tired I hoof wrestled with applejack but it ended up a tie after ten minutes of struggling on even grounds, I was bobbing for apples and then I felt something grab me by the face and it started me after I found out it was a gator with no teeth I was relieved it had no teeth, and after a few games we all headed home.
Rarity and I were heading back to her house where I was staying so she wanted to discuss about styling my mane but I thought my mane was fine but she tried anyway she tried to make it so it was smooth but that would be impossible.
"Stay still Zap I need to fix your mane" she kept hoping on my back while trying to fix it but she was latched on and I couldn't shake her off
"You know what fine try to fix my mane I don't care anymore but let's just get back to your house I'm beat"
After she had to many failed attempts on fixing my mane she gave up and we made it back I was sleeping in her guest room but it was a bit to flashy for my taste. So after a long day I'm going to end this journal entry here and get some sleep but before I end it I have one thing to say
Ponyville is my new home I finally found a place where I can stay and be free but tomorrow it's time I got a job now that personal matter's are taken care of.
