Solar's Story
A Sparkle of Mystery
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSolar trotted back to the centre of Ponyville looking around at his new home, the place was fairly lively with ponies of different colours. He took the time to note in his mind where everything was since it would be important for daily life, he found out where the market stalls were, Sugarcube Corner and several other places. But after all that Solar was really hungry, judging by the sun he guessed it would be around 5:30 which left a bit of time before the party.
On the way to the café for food, he saw somepony looking at him, as if noting every little detail about him to the mark, Solar turned his gaze towards the pony, he was brown coated earth pony with black mane and tail, he had green eyes similar to Solar's. Solar started to trot towards the suspicious stallion but when Solar got in about fifty metres the stallion began to gallop off down the path, Solar began to start galloping as well to keep up with the stallion.
Solar thought to himself “Why is this guy galloping away?” still galloping to catch up with the pony.
Nopony was around to see the two ponies galloping around. Solar then started to flap his wings to give him some extra speed and almost caught the Stallion, but the Stallion took a left and Solar flew past the left turn and had to turn around and turned the corner rather fast, he then hit something or somepony and took a blow to the head, he was knocked out cold.
Solar awoke on a bed in a room, these was a window to the right of the bed and a door far to left, the room had a large book shelve full of book arranged alphabetically from A-Z.
Solar thought to himself “Looks like somepony likes their books”
The door to the left of Solar opened and a purple unicorn came though the door.
“Oh, your awake” the unicorn said a pleasantly surprised voice.
Solar gave a little nob and took a moment to look at the pony what was now trotting towards him, he could see that the mares mane was rather straight coloured in a dark purple with two different coloured stripes to the side of her horn, one was a pink like colour and the other was purple, lighter in colour then most of her mane but not too light.
The mare stood at the edge of bed now “I'm Twilight Sparkle, you must be new here, what's your name?” she asked curiously.
Solar shook his head a little to regain focus of what was going on around him “Oh sorry dazed off a little” he said nervously “I'm Solar Blitz and I just moved here today” regaining confidence slowly.
Twilight smiled a little “Well Solar Blitz...” see said cheerfully.
“Please, call me Solar, everypony else does” he said interrupting Twilight “Sorry, continue”
“Well Solar, you seem to be fine after you ran in to the books I was carrying” Twilight said with a little worry in her voice “You are okay, right?”
Solar got out of the bed “Yeah, I think I am” he replied “So I ran in to your books?” he said questioning the situation.
Twilight pointed to the bottom of the book selves with her right hoof “Yes, they are quite big books which I ordered for my studies” she said with a slight smile “You were out cold so I carried you back here”.
Solar looked back at Twilight “You really like your books I see”
Twilight smiled at the comment “Yeah, just a little” then stated to giggle a little.
Solar then remembered the black haired pony “Oh, I just remembered!” Solar said with a gasp.
Twilight responded to the sudden outburst with “W-what is it?” she asked curiously.
“Before I ran in to you did you see a brown pony with a black mane gallop by you?” he asked with hoping for the response he wanted.
Twilight shook her head “Sorry no, I did see a pony run past me before you hit ran in to my books, but the pony had a blue mane and had purple coat like mine I think...” she said looking a little disappointed “Sorry that I can't help you” she said looking at the floor.
A small frown appeared on Solar's face “I see and don't be sorry, it doesn't matter anyway” he said trying to cheer her up now.
Twilight looked back up at Solar giving a little smile “Well anyway, you better be off I am off to a party with my friends” she said in a now cheerful manner.
Solars eyes widened slightly “Is this party at Sugarcube Corner?” he asked.
“Yes it is, how did you know?” Twilight replied
“I am going to the exact same party, since I am new.” he said with a little glee in his voice.
Twilight was a little surprised but smiled at Solar “Well tell you what, since it is almost time for the party, 6:30 specifically , why don't we trot to together and meet up with the others? You can tell me about yourself and I can do the same” she said with her cheeks blushing a little.
“Sure, I guess we could, although I have got to meet Pinkie and Rainbow there” he said.
Twilights jaw dropped a little saying with disbelief “You know Pinkie and Rainbow?”
Solar looked at Twilight “You know them too?”
“Yes I do, they are two of my best friends” saying with a happy tone.
Solar smiled and laughed a little “Hehe, looks like you made a new one as well.”
Twilight blushed a little “Yeah...” scratching the back of her head with her hoof “well shall be heading off?”
Solar nodded “Yeah, don't want to keep them waiting do we?”
Twilight lead Solar out of the bedroom, down the stairs and in to the library, Solar looked around at the various books like The History of Equestria, Advanced Magic, What are Changlings? and hundreds of different books.
“Well you first” Twilight said
Solar looked to Twilight “Ah, thank you” he said to her as he trotted though the door.
Twilight followed behind him looking the door to the library which Solar could now see was a hollowed out tree.
“The library is inside a tree, that's new” he said laughing to himself.
After locking the door Twilight turned to face Solar “So you're new around here I take it?” she asked curiously.
“Yeah, I just move here, from Manehatten, as I am new here I thought this would be a good way to meet someponies” he said now trotting to Sugarcube Corner with twilight.
“I am actually not from round here either, I am from Canterlot and was sent here because Princess Celestia sent me here” she replied trying to make talk.
Solar Blitz had a curious look on his face “So are you like her pupil or something?”
Twilight looked over to Solar “Yes in fact, she teaches me on how to use my magic and I am currently studying the magic of friendship”
“Huh, well I guess you...” Solar was cut off by his own stomach rumbling “Hmm, sorry, I haven't eaten all day” he said nervously.
“Really? And you didn't notice till now?” she was saying with a face which reads 'Wow really?'.
He nervously smiled at Twilight “Yeah, that is why I was out earlier, but I kinda was out cold you know?”
Twilight rolled her eyes “Well, I guess you could get something at the party” she said sighing, she continued “but you would probably get s...” she was cut off by a mare approaching them.
“Hello, sorry to cut in but are you Solar Blitz?” the mare said pointing her right hoof to Solar.
Solar looked to the mare and saw that she had a purple coat darker then Twilight's, she had leaf green eyes, her mane was rather fluffy and was in 2 colours of a light pink and a dark pink.
Solar replied to the mares question “Yes, how do you know that?” he questioned the mare.
“I thought you might be, just like in your profile” she said “I'm Cheerliee, we haven't met in person before and I saw you so I thought why not introduce myself before you start”
Solar was a little jumped by this “Wow, didn't expect to run in to you...”
Twilight interrupted them “Sorry to interrupt but how do you know each other?” she asked curiously.
Cheerliee turned her head to Twilight “You see Solar applied for a job at the school house for a maths teacher, he sent his profile and I okayed him for work” she said “You know things can get a little bad down there and I do sometimes need a little break” she added.
“Well anyway, it's nice to meet you Cherliee, why are you out here anyway?” Solar asked.
Cherliee turned to Solar and pointed behind her with her right hoof “I'm on a date with Big Mac over there, he is taking me out for dinner”
Solar looked behind her to see a big red stallion with a orange mane and tail standing in the distance scratching the back of his head a little nervous.
“I thought you 2 were just friends?” Twilight said curiously.
“Oh, well, you see he offered and I thought I might as well take up his offer” she said with her cheeks turning rose red.
Solar then said to the two “Well we all better head off to where ever we have to go.”
Cherliee and Twilight nodded.
“Well it is was nice meeting you in person Cherliee, have nice time with Big Mac” he said cheerfully.
“Same to you too Solar Blitz and...” she was cut off.
“Please call me Solar, everpony does” he said “Sorry continue”
Cherliee with a little bit of a annoyed sigh and continued “As I was saying, same to you Solar and have a nice night.”
Cherliee trotted back to Big Mac and the two trotted in to the night.
Twilight then said to Solar “Well, that was unexpected but nice, wouldn't you say?”
“Yes, who would have thought it?” he replied.
Twilight smiled “Now about your hunger problems” her smile turning to a little annoyed frown/
Solar was about to say something when he realised he wasn't hungry any more “Actually I'm not hungry anymore” he said in a surprised voice.
“How is that?” Twilight asked her self “I mean unless you ate something while we weren't looking you should still be hungry” she said contemplating to herself.
Solar Blitz trotted past her tapping her on the back and said to her “I don't know either, come on we don't want to be late now do we?” he said with a little smirk.
“Oh right” she said doing a little dash to catch up with Solar “Hopefully the others are there” she said to Solar.
Solar nodded “Me too” he replied as they trotted down the road to Sugarcube Corner.
