Chapters Chapter 1
Maybe and after...
Chapter 1 (Books are evil)
As the small amount of pain that shoots through your body from hitting the hardwood floor is now being doubled by the girlish laughing of Twilight behind you. You lie on the ground thinking to yourself, why lately can I not start the day off with a nice morning? You turn your head to see what you have tripped over, you notice a large array of books scattered across the bed side…note to self, books hate you.
Your train of thought is side tracked as you watch Twilight leave the bed and trot over to you, she has her head up high so you know she is about to say something about your fail. “You would think after a week of being a pony, that getting out of bed would be easy for you.” Twilight bends her head down and gives you a sly little smile.
You stare at her happy expression, you’re not about to let her have all the fun. You blow at her face; Twilight lets out a high pitched sequel as she snaps her head back from yours.
“Ugh your breath smells.”
You smile back to her as you point out what has made you fall, “You know it might be a little easier to stand in the morning if I didn’t trip over books every time I got up.”
Twilight looks towards the ground as you stand up. She blushes as she notices the pile of books that are scattered across the room. “Sorry, the Princess told me at the end of the test to start studying different forms of magic so that I can be ready for my next lesson.”
Twilight starts collecting the books around you as she continues to talk, “You know if you want to help you can tell me what kind of spell you used to get sucked into a book.”
You now kind of regret telling Twilight about what happened while she was gone; since you told her about it all she has wanted to do is try and replicate the spell. And there is no way you are going to try to go back into a book after only a few days. “Twilight, Spike said the book was cursed and that’s why it did what it did.”
Twilight laughs at the comment, “There are no such things as curses, trust me I would know.”
You’re a little confused about how magic can exists but curses are something that would be laughed at.
Twilight floats a book to your face “Can you at least try?”
You stare at the book for a moment and silently think, burst into flames burst into flames. When it doesn’t you look back to Twilight, “I don’t know a spell.”
Twilight bats her big purple eyes at you and gives you as sweet smile “Please…for me?”
You look at her expression and think, that’s not fair. You know you’re not going to win this so you decide to try changing the conversation. “What are you jealous that I did something while you were gone?”
You give a smug grin as you wait for her comment.
Instead of the expected, no, she just kind of jerks her head up and floats the book to the top of her book tower with a more annoyed tone than you expected. “If you don’t want to help that’s fine, and no I’m not jealous.”
You think to yourself as she walks out of the room, bad move.
As she leaves the room she calls back to you, “Come get breakfast whenever you feel like it.” Her tone is still sounds different from her normal sweet morning voice, so you plan to just wait around a bit before going down.
(Later)
After about an hour of sitting around upstairs you finally agree with yourself that it’s been a long enough wait. As you walk down the stairs you're meet with Spikes voice as he sweeps something up from the bottom of the staircase.
“It’s about time you come down; I had your plate on the table for like an hour or something.”
Spike looks back to the kitchen then back to you, “You said something again huh?”
You don’t feel like playing a dumb twenty questions, “Spike… I can still make your scales pink if I want.”
Spike gives a nervous laugh as he backs away from the stairs, “ha ha, no you're right none of my business.”
As you walk towards the kitchen you keep thinking to yourself, there is no way she could still be mad right? All I said was are you jealous. As you near the door to the kitchen you peek around the corner; you see your plate of food on the table and on the far side of the table is Twilight sitting reading a book.
You both catch each other’s eye and you stare for an awkward moment. You are the first one to make a move as you walk towards the table to eat, “Morning Twilight.”
Twilight responds with a nod.
You take your seat across from her. You look over the meal you have a muffin some apples and a few eggs. The food is not bad but some mornings you wish you could just have some kind of bacon or something meaty.
For the next few minutes you eat in silence. As you get down to the last apple you decide to try something different, you float a knife over to you and you begin slicing the apple into small bits. You then try to pick your fork up with your hooves.
Rainbow said that the reason ponies can hold things is because of some kind of magic so why not putting what she said to the test. You fiddle with your hooves for a moment, when you think you have a grip on the small utensil you poke at the apple bits on your plate. As the first bit is poked it slides off the plate and onto the floor.
You hear Twilight give a little giggle at this point, you look up and she quickly buries her head back into her book that she is holding. You look over how she is holding the book, how does that not hurt? You look back to your plate and again thrust your fork back to the apple bits. Just like before it shoots off the plate and lands on the floor.
“What are you doing?”
Twilight’s voice has a sense of humor in it, which is nice to hear.
You reply, “Eating.”
You slam your fork back down towards one of the apple bits, but this time the fork holds onto it. You look down and then look back towards Twilight with the biggest smile on your face, “See.”
Twilight puts the book down as she talks, “Ok, eat it.”
Challenge accepted. You float the fork to your mouth and bit the apple bit off.
Twilight laughs a little, “You cheated.”
“Magic.”
She rolls her eyes at your comment.
End of chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 2 (Rain or Stars)
Spike refused to help clean up breakfast, mainly because, as he put it, “I did not drop food on the floor, why do I have to help?” Honestly two little apple pieces? So with him not wanting to help you of course offered to help Twilight….bad move. She turned a simple clean up into a magic lesson, float, teleport, and fix dropped plates. Note to self, stop trying to hold things in your hooves. It wasn’t all bad you got her to start talking again at last.
As you float the last fixed plate into the cupboard you turn to Twilight. “Done.”
Twilight still sits where she has been since you came downstairs; she taps her hoof to her face as she looks around. “You know I think being turned into a pony has really helped your magic.” She walks over to you and places her hoof to her head. “But if you can do magic why did you not get a horn?”
You think about it for a moment, “Ya, but wouldn’t that be cool if I had wings?”
Twilight takes her hoof from your hairline, “Why wings?”
“Then I could….” You’re interrupted by a high pitched voice from behind you.
“So that he could hope to beat me in a race…duh!?”
You know only one pony with that voice…and of course she would pick today to stop by, and of course it would be right when you and Twilight were talking again.
You look over Twilight’s expression as she says hello to Rainbow, she does not have the same happy smile she use to have when she would see her friend.
Rainbow flies over to where you both stand and starts to shake you with her hooves as she talks “HEY! You want to go to the track and see if your puny pony body can keep up with this awesome one. Heck I won’t even use my wings.”
“Oh Rainbow, that sounds like fun but I think we are going to be busy with a magic and pony lesson today.”
Rainbow doesn’t sense the tone of Twilight’s voice and continues as normal, “Oh well you wouldn’t have to come? You don’t even like that kind of stuff. Besides what more does he need to learn about being a pony?” Rainbow flies in front of you and faces you. “You know not to steal or kill anyone right?”
You nod your head.
Rainbow nudges Twilight, “Call me crazy but I think he’s got it.”
You give a little chuckle at how Rainbow still cannot take a hint. “Rainbow, I think I’m going to stay here today.”
Rainbow lets out an annoyed huff, “Ok” She pokes her hoof into your side, “You tell me if you go on any adventures... can’t have you getting hurt again huh?”
Before you can state you saved her first she has already bolted out of the house. You turn back to Twilight, “Ok so what do I need to learn.”
Twilight stutters with her words and it takes her a few moments to give an audible sentence, “Um…I know you need to learn…how to.” She taps her hoof to her mouth and shoots her eyes around the room trying to find something.
You now are starting to regret saying you are going to stay home.
“Twilight! Twilight!”
Spike runs into the room with a huge smile on his face as he jumps up and down.
You stare at the little purple conversation killer and think, do I ever get to finish a sentence?
Twilight turns her gaze to the excited hoping dragon, “Yes Spike?”
The last time Spike was this happy was when Rarity asked Spike to go gem hunting with her; you can’t imagine why that would be fun. You’re already planning to do something to Spike if the first words out of his mouth are, Rarity, you listen as the overly excited dragon tries to talk.
“Celestia sent your SCORE!”
Spike unfolds a piece of paper; Twilight floats the paper to her. “Dear my most faithful student, I am happy to say you have passed the test…”
Twilight looks at you with bright beaming purple eyes; she runs over to you and hugs you. “I PASSED!”
You wrap your hooves around her, “I knew you would.”
Spike stands beside you two and starts poking you both. “There is more.”
Twilight releases you from her grasp and returns back to the letter, she continues to look over the letter. “Twilight to celebrate your passing to the next step of your teaching I am inviting you and your friends to Canterlot for a nice weekend this week.”
Spike nudges you, “Hey there are eight tickets that means you’re coming with us, don’t worry I know all the cool hangouts in Canterlot.”
Twilight looks over the letter as she speaks, “I just hope we can have a nice visit to Canterlot this time.”
You laugh at her comment, the only time you have been there you almost died and from her stories that seems to be a real common event there.
Twilight folds the letter back up, “Well we need to go and give everypony there tickets.”
“We?”
Twilight smiles at you “Told you I would find something.” She slowly brushes you with her tail as she walks past you.
Spike follows behind Twilight “Are you going to Rarity’s? Can I come?”
Twilight nods her head at Spike as he runs towards the door and anxiously waits in front of it.
So much for staying home today, you follow after the two of them as they leave the house.
Chapter 2 end
Chapter 3
Chapter 3 (NO more!)
You continue to slam your head slowly into the table you sit at. You can handle Fluttershy not talking to you and you can handle Pinkie trying to suffocate you with food for an hour. But this? This is the worst possible thing ever! This takes was simple give tickets to everypony, simple right? Nope you now have to wait until Rarity finds a dress color she likes and who is helping her Twilight and Spike. Worst part about it you have been talking to yourself because Spike is to love
You don’t know how long you have been at Rarity’s you just know you want to leave. You stop banging you head for a few moments; you stare at the table and start to listen to Rarity and Twilight’s conversation again.
Rarity of course is still leading the conversation. “…Oh please this color shoes with this dress?”
“I think they all look nice!”
“Oh you’re too sweet Spike but I think we need another opinion.”
“It’s fine Rarity.”
“Is it fine or fine, THIS matters Twilight.”
“Rarity I’m sorry but I think it’s time we got ready to go.”
You hear there hoof’s beating against the ground as they get closer. You bring your head up to see the three of them exiting the other part of the Boutique.
“Darling have you been sitting here this whole time?” Rarity stares at you for a response.
But before you can talk she continues, “OH Twilight look at his face, it’s all red is he sick?”
Twilight looks at you, and holds back a giggle. “no he’s fine.”
You know she knows what you have been doing because she checked on you a few minutes ago and you were doing the same thing.
Twilight floats the letter off the table and folds it back up, “Well Rarity we’ll see you this weekend.”
Rarity gasps “THIS weekend? As in this one?”
Twilight gets annoyed at her comment, “Yes Rarity you know that.”
Rarity dramatically puts her hoof to her face, “How will I ever make a new dress for everypony in a few days?!”
“I already told you, you don’t have to make a new…”
Rarity puts her hoof to Twilight’s mouth, “Don’t even say it. I must!” Rarity looks over Twilight, “you need a new dress there is no way your old dress would fit you.”
Your eyes get a little big at Rarity’s comment, holy shit she basically just called her fat. You try to hold back a laugh as Twilight talks.
Twilight’s face is a little red as she talks, “I’m sure my dress will fit just fine it’s only been a few months since I last wore it, now we have to go and give the others there tickets.”
Spike lets out a sigh, “Do we have to?”
“Yes Spike Applejack and Rainbow need their tickets.”
As Twilight makes her way to the door you stand up and say good bye to Rarity.
Rarity calls out “Wait! Twilight I have something for you hold on.”
Rarity darts back into the other room. You sigh loudly as you look at Twilight she sheepishly blushes and whispers “Sorry.”
You take your seat back at the table and watch as Spike goes back to the other room.
You again start slamming your head on the table.
Twilight starts giggling as she tries to stop you.
“HI Twilight!”
The really high pitched voice hits your ears and you think, what the hell was that?
You and Twilight turn to face a little white unicorn filly. “HI Sweetie.” Says Twilight.
You study the little filly, is that Rarity’s kid?
The little filly points to you with her little hoof, “Who are you?”
You say your name and listen to the little filly speak.
“Oh you’re the weird guy my sister always talks about.” She pauses and looks you over, “You don’t look weird and you two don’t make a weird couple.” Her smile is so innocent as she waits for you to talk.
Rarity has stepped back into the room at that moment; she quickly covers Sweetie’s mouth before she could say anything else. “Ha ha, I have no idea what she is talking about.”
You roll your eyes at Twilight.
Twilight speaks for both of you, “it’s fine Rarity, now we have to go see everyone else.”
Rarity makes a puppy dog face at her comment, “But Twilight I only need a few measurements. “Just a few minutes?”
Twilight sighs and looks back at you, “You can go back home if you want and if you see Rainbow or Applejack tell them I need to see them.”
You pull yourself off the chair for hopefully the last time, as you make your way towards the door your ear drums are pounded by breaker of the sound barrier or as she more commonly known as Sweetie, “YOU’RE A Blank FLANK!”
Her voice crack made it hard to understand what she said but she is now poking your backside with her hoof. “How could you not have your cutie mark your so old!” Her voice is filled with a sense of sadness as she looks back to Rarity. “Will I EVEr get my cutie mark?!”
Twilight speaks for Rarity, “Sweetie belle, he is not a normal pony so he does not have a cutie mark.” Twilight puts her hooves around Sweetie “you will get yours when you find your special talent.”
You look at your side with a little bit of disappointment as you think, not even a real pony…
Twilight notice’s your change in expression as you stare at your side, “You know you could get a cutie mark.”
Your ears perk up at her voice; you look to her “Really?”
Twilight proudly puts her head up, “Every pony has a special talent.”
Sweetie cuts in before Twilight can continue, “ME and my friends help ponies get their cutie marks…DO you Want TO Join!”
Rarity talks for you, “OH Sweetie he doesn’t…”
This time you’re the one who cuts somepony off…it feels good to do it to. “I would love to.”
The little filly jumps up in the air, “Great! Follow me!”
Sweetie belle runs out of the house and towards the road. You look to Twilight for some kind of approval.
She smiles at you, “If you get a cutie mark I WILL make you write a letter to the Princess.”
You laugh at her comment; she thinks she can make me write…”Ok Twilight.”
Rarity point’s her hoof at you, “Don’t let them do anything dangers OK?”
You nod your head as you leave the room.
End of chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 4
You have followed Sweetie Belle to a small tree house somewhere in Applejack’s orchard. Outside of the tree house you can see two more young ponies. One is Apple Bloom, whom you have me one time before when you helped Applejack and Twilight harvest apples before the cold got to them, of course you were not a pony then so she probably will not recognize you. The other pony however you have never meet before, as you get closer to the two ponies Sweetie belle calls out to them.
“Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, I found a new Cutie Mark Crusader!”
You think about what you just heard, crusader? You try to think about the word but the only thing you can think of is wars and death, and that makes you wonder what these three little fillies do. You start to plan an escape route if one of them brings out a suit of armor.
“Him?!” The orange pegasus which must be Scootaloo points to you and laughs. “How do you not have a cutie mark?!”
Apple bloom pokes the orange pony, “That’s not nice.”
Scootaloo blows at Apple bloom. She then walks up to you and stares at you, “How do you not have a cutie mark…your old?”
You look down at the pony, “I don’t know.” Honestly you don’t know how to answer the question.
Apple bloom cuts in front of Scootaloo as she talks, “I’m Apple Bloom! Who are you?”
Her southern accent is not as prominent as Applejacks, but you still find ponies with accents funny.
You say hello and your name, she doesn’t notice the name.
“We are the Cutie Mark Crusaders, a group dedicated to helping ponies find there special talent and their cutie marks!” The little pony jumps excitedly at the end of her sentence. “Would you like to join?”
You look at Sweetie Belle and Apple Blooms excited faces as they wait for your response. Scootaloo on the other hand still looks at you with a skeptical expression. “Sure?”
Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle cheer in joy.
You on the other hand can’t stop laughing in your head, HA I am now a firebending, alien, human/pony wizard, crusader!...note to self, find a simpler sentence.
Scootaloo sighs as the other two calm down, “Great…now can we go? Are cutie marks are not going to find themselves you know.”
Sweetie Belle taps her hoof to her face, “where are we going?”
Apple bloom pulls a map from what seems like nowhere, “The Everfree forest! We haven’t ever really explored there, maybe are talent is exploring!”
Scootaloo cuts Apple Bloom off before she could explain further, “Wouldn’t a compass or or a map look awesome on me!”
You laugh at her comment….bad move.
Scootaloo looks at you, “Well at least we are not thirty years old with not talent.”
The other two fillies giggle to each other. You are a little mad at her comment thirty? “I’m not thirty.”
“Great he is talentless and he doesn’t understand jokes.”
Sweetie and Apple bloom continue to giggle at the continued onslaught. “Ok so are we going to the free ever forests now?”
Apple bloom corrects you, “Everfree Forest.”
You nod your head, but you don’t really care.
You follow the three ponies down a path for a few minutes; you are noticing the trees around you are starting to get thicker. You are starting to feel uneasy as you continue down the path and now Rarity’s words are starting to chime in your head. “Is this place safe?”
Scootaloo turns and looks at you, “Of course why wouldn’t it be?”
Sweetie belle walks closer to you now as she too starts to get that uneasy feeling, “Are…Are you sure?”
You decide to try using Sweetie as your excuse for not wanting to go further. “Ya I think…”
Before you can finish your sentence your knocked onto your back, the dirt you hit is hard and you think a twig has just bury itself in a place you really don’t want a twig.
You open your eyes to see the smiling face of your attacker…
“Sup dude, where you guys going?”
Scootaloo gets a girlish fan-girl voice as she calls out the ponies’ name, “Rainbow Dash! What’s up!”
Rainbow flaps herself off of you and gives the little orange pegasus a rub on the head. “Noting much squirt.”
You watch how the act towards each other…that explains Scootaloo she’s friends with Rainbow.
“Are you following me Rainbow?”
Rainbow stops the hoof assault on the laughing pegasus head to look at you, “phff, ya right like I have nothing better to do with my time but follow you.” She flies up into the air and taps her hoof to her face, “Still why are you guys going into the Everfree Forest?”
Apple Bloom speaks for the three ponies, “We are going to get our cutie marks in exploring.” Her happy smile disappears as Rainbow scolds her.
“You ponies know it’s dangerous in there; what would Rarity or Applejack say if they knew where you where?”
Sweetie points to you, “He is going to keep us safe.”
Rainbow looks you over then laughs, “Him? Sorry girls but he can’t do much.”
You stare at the cyan pony in shock, can’t do much? You stare at her wings, a purple film surrounds them and they stop flapping. Rainbow falls to the ground with a girlish scream. It was maybe a two foot fall so you don’t feel bad at all.
You smile as she yells at you.
You’re surprised none of the little fillies asked about how you just did magic but it’s understandable as you listen to their pleas.
“Rainbow don’t tell my sister about what we were doing!” Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle’s pleas sound like a squeaky southern mixed voice…it is too cute to ignore.
Rainbow laughs at them, “Chill out I wasn’t going to tell.”
The two ponies give a sigh of relief.
Scootaloo on the other hand is now sitting on the ground with her hooves crossed, “Aw man now we’ll never get our cutie marks in exploring.”
Rainbow walks over to her, “Sure you will, I’ll be your guide in the forest!”
Rainbow flies up into the air as she talks, “But if we do this it’s only for a little bit and you don’t tell anypony ok?”
Rainbow looks at you especially, “You got that?”
You decide to toy with her before you agree, “What’s that Rainbow can’t fly well?”
Rainbow’s voice strikes a new cord as she talks back to you, “Dude you can’t even fly?”
You walk towards the forest as you continue to toy with her, “Nope, but I don’t miss hitting a huge wolf either.”
The three ponies’ that follow you giggle as Rainbow starts to get blushing cheeks and stutters with her words.
As Rainbow tries changing the conversation you take it as a sign of you winning.
“So I missed a wolf, so what I can still beat you in a race, or anything athletic.”
You start to ignore Dash’s comments as the forest starts to get darker from the ticking tree line.
Rainbow drops her petty comments as she is brought back to her environment. She looks around as she talks, “It’s a place where strange things happen and a place where monsters live.”
Sweetie Belle has a low tone as she talks, “What…what kind of things?”
Rainbow picks up on Sweetie’s tone and decides to explain further in a what you can guess is a spooky voice.
You roll your eyes at her lame excuse for a scary voice. You have the strangest feeling in your stomach that you really should not have let Rainbow take you four into the forest. But you keep suppressing this feeling as it’s too late to say no anyways. Rarity’s words still chime in your head, you grind your teeth a little as you try to listen to any sounds of twigs breaking…you have seen enough movies to know how things start.
End of chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 5 (Don’t listen to the trees)
You don’t know how long you have been it this damp cold forest of never ending tree lines. You now at this point really wish you did not head into the forest but for now you just gotta deal with your decision.
The three little fillies have gotten in front of you as you have drifted to the back of the group. Rainbow has been walking beside you for the last few minutes.
“Hey, what was up with Twilight earlier?”
You think to yourself for a moment, “She has been stressed about not getting her test results back.”
Rainbow laughs at your answer, “Really? Wow she cares too much about those things.”
“Oh ya Rainbow she got her test back and now Celestia wants to give her a party or something in Canterlot this weekend, you need to get the ticket from her.”
Before Rainbow can talk your conversation is halted by the sounds of Sweetie screaming.
Rainbow bolts over to her, “What? What is it?”
“I stepped in something squishy!” Her voice crack at the end of the sentence sends sound waves ringing in your ears, ow.
Sweetie Belle wiggles her right hoof around trying to fling something off, as she does this she loses balance and falls into a puddle of mud.
Scootaloo burst out laughing at the little unicorns fail.
Sweetie Belle is now covered in mud, her voice has a sense of sadness in it as she talks, “Awww Rarity is going to be so mad when she sees me.”
Rainbow giggles at her comment, “Cheer up, I’ll get a rain cloud to get the mud off, be right back.”
You look back to the three fillies that are now staring at you….”What?”
Apple Bloom motions with her hoof, “Are you and Rainbow…Special some ponies?”
You are quick to shake your head at her comment.
Scootaloo blows her breath at Apple Bloom’s comment, “Ya like he could be going out with Dash.”
Apple Bloom hushes Scootaloo, “Applejack says anypony can fall in love on hearts and hooves day.”
They go back in forth for a few minutes before you cut in. “What’s Heart and hooves day?”
Applebloom and Scootaloo are too busy to answer you so you look to Sweetie Belle.
She stops flick mud off of her coat as she starts to talk, “Rarity says it’s when two special some ponies share a romantic day and it’s a day where two…”
Scootaloo cuts in before Sweetie can continue, “Ya and we know you can’t get two ponies to fall in love just because.” She looks at you, “Believe me we have try a lot of things.”
“Oh so it’s like Valentine’s Day?”
The three ponies look at each other confused about the word.
Your smile you had for understanding something quickly fades as you realize they have no idea what you’re talking about. “Never mind.”
Scootaloo pulls out the map Apple Bloom had earlier, “Well that day is not today; today is the day we get our cutie marks in…HEY!”
A gust of wind blows the map from her grasp. She grabs for it but misses as it is carried further into the air. As she makes a jump for it she grabs it and falls back to the ground… only the ground she thought she would meet is not there, instead she lands on a pile of leaves that give way as she falls through them into a hole with a high pitched scream.
Sweetie Belle and Applebloom scream her name as she falls out of sight.
You’re quick to act as you jump into the hole after her.
You are expecting to fall maybe a few feet and it would be a simple climb back up…nope the hole you have so foolishly jumped into leads to a dirt slide that seems to go on forever.
After a few twist and turns from the hard dirt slide you finally are dropped on your face.
As you pick yourself up from the ground you see Scootaloo rubbing her head beside you. She looks at you, “That wasn’t fun.”
You smile at the sight of her begin ok. As you look around the area you two currently occupy, it looks like some kind of abandoned hollowed out rock cave or something.
Scootaloo looks around in amazement, “Oh right I have to have gotten my cutie mark now!” She looks at her side with a smile; the smile fades as she realizes nothing is there. “AWWW.”
You are not amused at all about your current predicament, “It’s not a game Scootaloo we might be stuck in here.”
Scootaloo blows at you, “Where is your sense of adventure?”
You point to the dirt slide you fell from. You cross your hooves and continue to talk, “Now fly up there and tell Rainbow to get help.”
The orange pegasus rubs her neck, “Um…I can’t fly.”
You stare at the pegasus …no way…”Really?”
Scootaloo gets a sense of sadness in her voice, “Ya I can’t fly, you have a problem with that?”
You shake your head. You have no idea what that must feel like… to be something that is supposed to fly and then can’t.
Scootaloo sits down as the realization starts to hit her. “Are we really stuck here?”
You look over the little orange filly’s expression; she looks like she is trying really hard not to cry. “No..no Rainbow dash will get us out of here.”
Scootaloo smiles at the comment “Ya, You're right she will.”
Right as she finishes her sentence you hear the sound of the dirt slide behind you. As the sound
She picks up Scootaloo, “What were you thinking?”
Scootaloo blushes as she talks, “Sorry Rainbow.”
Rainbow looks at you, “I’ll be right back.”
You watch as she flies Scootaloo out of the dirt slide. After a few seconds you hear her coming back down for you. As she pops out she looks you over. “You know this is the second time I have saved you but…You know that right?”
Of course she has to say something.
Rainbow puts her hooves to her side, “Say, thank you Rainbow dash you’re the best flyer in ALL of Equestria.”
You sigh and repeat what she says at a low whisper.
She taps her hoof to her mouth, “Ok I’ll take that.” She looks you over, “Don’t get excited but you have to grab onto me, ok?”
You roll your eyes at her comment.
Rainbow kicks off the wall and bolts beside you, “Now watch the…”
Her kick did more than give her an unnecessary speed boost; her kick sent the dirt slide into a broken pile of dirt.
“Oh man.” Rainbow looks to you. “Ok your turn do something!”
You laugh at how her demeanor can change so fast. You also find it funny how she is asking you to do something. It’s a good thing you were already planning something before she got Scootaloo.
You close your eyes and picture the both of you next to the three fillies outside. You stay focused on this until you hear Scootaloo’s voice. “How did you do that?!”
Sweetie Belle calls out in a high pitched voice before anyone can talk, “Can WE leave this place!”
Apple Bloom takes the map from Scootaloo, “Ya I think we’ve had enough of exploring for today.”
Rainbow stands beside you, “You got to admit we make a good team huh?”
You stare at her, “We never would had come in here if you didn’t say let’s go.”
She blushes as she talks, “Ok, truth is told I was following you.”
She catches you off guard with this, “Why?”
“Well I wanted to have another adventure and you know… you always seem to have something happen to you.”
You think about her comment, she wanted something to happen? You don't know if you should feel flattered or upset at this as you follow after her.
End of chapter 5
Chapter 6
Chapter 6 (never really simple)
By the time you get back to the library the sun is down and its dark out. You never have been outside in Ponyville when it’s dark out. Not seeing the colorful ponies or the sunlight hitting the hay covered roofs makes this town look like any other town you have ever seen.
Rainbow for some reason has decided to follow you home. As you reach the door you turn to face Rainbow, “Ok night Rainbow.”
Rainbow puts her hoof on your chest, “Remember don’t tell Twilight about where you were, she would totally freak!”
"ok."
Rainbow flaps her wings and brings herself off the ground, “ok C’ya tomorrow.”
Tomorrow? You don’t remember agreeing to anything tomorrow but you honestly you can’t really think straight with the dirt burn you have on your back. Note to self, don’t lay on back tonight.
As enter the door you head up stairs, you’re too tired right now to even think about food.
About halfway up the stairs you hear your name called out. You turn to face Twilight at the bottom of the stairs. “I see you didn’t get your cutie mark…was it fun?”
Your back is burning but you put that aside, “Yep.” You continue up the stairs as she talks.
“You’re going to sleep?”
“Yep.”
“Um..ok good night.”
Her voice becomes distant as you near and climb into your bed.
(later)
You expected to wake up when Twilight climbed into the bed, and like you thought you did. While you’re sleeping your back does not burn but while you’re awake it feels like you’re on fire.
She is quick to turn and say sorry as she notices your eyes in the moonlight.
You would go back to sleep but you're now to awake.
As she starts to get comfortable you slowly move your hoof to her side. You have accepted the fact you can no longer rub her ears like you use to do, which makes you a bit sad but you think you know something else that might give a cute reaction.
You rest your hoof on her cutie mark as you start to massage it slowly. She fidgets in the bed for a few moments before she turns to you. “What are you doing?”
You didn’t get the reaction you thought you would and you now feel a little stupid, “Umm..”
She stares at you for a moment, “Do you know what touching a mare’s cutie mark dose to her?”
You blink your eyes waiting for her to explain.
She moves closer to you as she whispers in your ear. “It drives them crazy.” She quickly moves her head from your ear and plants an excitable wet kiss on your lips…
