Deja Vu...
"Twilight, wake up!"
"Mmm..."
"Twilight?"
"Gah!"
"Sorry, it's just that you've been sleeping for awhile now."
"What time is it..." The lavender unicorn mumbles.
"11 AM," Spike replied.
"11?!" Twilight repeated angrily.
"Wait, don't worry! Today is your day off remember?"
"Oh... right," The flames died down. "So why'd you wake me up?" She questioned.
Urgency returns to the dragon's voice. "Somepony crashed outside of town! They seemed pretty hurt, and the first thing I thought of was going to you!"
"Then we need to go."
Groan...
A purple stallion with an orange mane lies down in a crater.
"This is him?"
"Yeah."
"He looks pretty bad... Hey," Twilight poked at him. "Are you alright?"
Another groan.
"Let's get him to the hospital," She states. Twilight lifts him up with magic, and makes her way.
After a long trot to the nearest care center, Twilight has gotten our patient into a treatment room, and will now receive a report.
"How is he?"
"Luckily, not too badly hurt. Just a couple of bruises, and maybe a broken leg. So who is this guy?"
"I don't know. He ended up somewhere outside of here."
"Twilight, what if he's... an alien! And, and, what if he's here to eat our brains! And, and-"
"Spike, you've been reading too many Sci-Fi books. He at least appears equine, so looks give him that, alright? I highly doubt he would consider cannibalism of his own species. Although him being able to cause a hole in the ground like that and only have a couple of bruises is insane... Especially with his headphones and necklace completely unharmed, and how did he make a hole like that anyways? He doesn't appear to be that heavy, unless he's made of dark matter... Or falling from an incredible distance. You paying attention, Spike?"
"Huh? Yeah! Uhh..."
"That's alright. Today's my day off, right?"
"Yeah. Today's Sunday, so it's everyone's day off."
"...Should we tell everypony else about this guy?"
"Well, sure!"
"Alright then. Who first?"
Spike and Twilight gather up the Mane 6, and explain as much as they can, even though it's not much.
"...And then we brought him here," Twilight explains.
"Seems legit," Rainbow Dash sarcastically comments. Nurse Redheart approaches them.
"He's awake now. We'll allow one," She puts a lot of emphasis on one. "Visitor."
"I'll go," The element of magic volunteers. After some nods, she open the door with magic, then closes it as she walks in. The stallion stares out the window with cold, fierce, blue eyes.
"Hello," He flatly greets without turning.
The unicorn tried to swallow the lump in her throat. For some reason, she was terribly nervous. "H-hello. My name is Twilight Sparkle. Spike found you outside of town, and I brought you back here. Are you alright?"
"Alright?" He scoffs, "I don't know where I am, I don't know who you are..." He pauses, about to not say what comes next. "I don't even know who I am..." He explains gently.
"You don't remember anything?"
"Neku Sakuraba."
"What?"
"That's my name."
"Oh, well, it's very nice!" She says, completely brushing off the fact he said he didn't know who he was a moment ago.
He scoffs. "Thanks for helping me, anyways. Where are my headphones and MP3?"
The listed objects float over to his lap.
"Wait.. What?"
"Something wrong?"
"My things just levitated to me."
"Yes, they did! Is this abnormal where you're from?"
"Yeah, we don't have witchcraft over there."
"It's not witchcraft, it's magic. How do you survive wherever you're from without it?"
"That's not important. What is really bugging me is that I don't have any fingers, you walk on 4 legs, and strangest of all, you're purple!"
Twilight's patience was wearing off. "You're purple too," She reminds through gritted teeth.
"No, I'm pretty sure, I'm- Oh. Hmm..."
"Wait." What Neku said just sank in. "Fingers? Were you a monkey, or something?"
"Yeah, sure," He says, half-sarcastically, half-seriously. "A monkey." He puts on his headphones.
"Hmm..."
"Would ya stop staring at me like that?"
"Oh, er, sorry..." Twilight backs off. "How did you arrive here?"
"Hell, if I know. I don't even remember getting here."
"Oh. So what's so special about your headphones?"
"That's none of your business." He puts his head down and faces the wall.
Sigh...
"Maybe another time..." Twilight suggests quietly.
All the world needs is me. I've got my values...so you can keep yours, alright?
