[Download : A Story]by paulcanareChapters[001 - Japz][002 - Download][000 - Download][001 - Japz]I awoke with a start, I was dreaming again. I was dreaming about that colorful world... what was it called? Equ...equar...equis...something. It was a world without war, hunger, and poverty. A perfect world... Too perfect to be real. I guess. Well, as much fun as it is to laze around day dreaming here. I have a job to get to. A glance at the clock tells me it's already 6:45am. Time to get ready for work I guess. I will spare you all the specifics of my daily routine and just jump to the description. I'm a 17 year old and I'm in my second year of college. Imagine a person with a slightly above average weight and intelligence, average height of 5'6", and severely low ammounts of self-esteem, confidence and social skills. Add that with a negative mindset, short black hair, a set of hazel eyes and overall you would get something like me. Not much to look at sure, but hey you do what you can with what you've got. Right? Sorry, I'm rambling here. So let's get to the point. I work at a convenience store as a clerk or register guy, whatever. A dead end minimum wage job that just barely pays the bills. Let me tell you a thing or two about working in a convenience store. It's boring as hell. It's a routine job that gets old very quickly. Smile and help the customers, scan the items and recieve payment. My shift starts 0730 and ends 1200, after that I'm off to my apartment to bathe and get ready for college. I attend 'Silver Streak', and I'm in my second year. Funny name for a college isn't it? It's a private school with a strict 'NO BULLYING' policy, a grand library and students from around the globe. A pristine school that focuses on scholarships and the like. Heh, the only reason I got in was through a scholarship, well... two scholarships. I got an 'Academic Scholarship' for my grades (not that hard when you're surrounded by snobby rich kids), and an 'Athletic Scholarship' from joining the swim team (apparently I'm the only one who joined who was not after the pool privilages). So another routine day I guess. Class starts 1300 and ends by 2000 (1 to 8pm?, time flies when one is bored), so 7 hours of studying, tests and lectures. Oh joy. "Hey 'Japz', did the prof. kill you with boredom again?" Luckily there's her. Her name is Zoe, a classmate and friend. How I was able to befriend her, I still don't know. But here's a derscription anyways. She's a popular girl with short silver hair, a light complexion with a nice curvy body and a vulmptous bust. I kid you not, they are HUGE. That fact aside, we are JUST FRIENDS, sad right? But hey she's single and she likes to hang out with me. That's good enough for me. "Nope, but the numb feeling I have says I'm close... I can almost feel my brain leeking through my ears." "Haha. Very funny. So... What're u doin' after class?" "Go home and get some sleep. Why?" "What, no dinner. What's wrong, not hungry?" "Nah, just wasted my dinner privilages for our last project. No biggie." "Wow, you did that again? How many times does this make? You know what don't answer. Just meet me at the gate after class, OK. Bye." "..." Yep, there she goes. Didn't even wait for me to reply. Oh well, class is starting so. Maybe later. *** "RING! RING! RING!" And there's the bell. Time to go hom- "Hey Japz over here!" Oh, yeah meet her at the gate. How'd I forget that? "Yeah, I'm comin' I'm comin'." "So I take it you are Japz?" Wait a minute. "Yep dad, that's him." Dad? This buff guy is her dad? *gulp* Don't see why I'm scared? Her dad has the body of a bouncer from some club. I am so dead. "I've heard a lot about you Japz. Zoe here says you're the only one who looks at her face, not her chest. I respect you for that. She also says you're not eating much these days. That true?" "Uh, yes? I mean no, I mean..." "Nervous, don't worry. She made me swear not to hurt you tonight. Also we're of for some dinner. Wanna join us?" Seriously, I don't know if I should be scared or happy in this situation. "Dad you're intimidating him. Anyways, he's coming. No exceptions. Let's go already." *** A sports car, I'm riding in a sports car. I kid you not, this is one sweet ride. "So... Where are we going?" "KFC, I love chicken. Should be a few more minutes so tell me about yourself..." *** The ride to KFC was... fun. We talked about school, my scholarships, my personal life, my dead parents... Eating at KFC was awesome, they got the bucket meal. A whole 8 piece chicken bucket meal. I ate like a pig. And after the meal they drove me to my apartment and gave me some take-out chicken. How awesome is that? Oh well, today is a day I will not soon forget. And as I lay sleep takes over. Author's Note Author's Note: Wrote this on my Nokia 5310. So it' short... Oh well, nobody reads these anyways so. yeah... logging out. [002 - Download]Huh... I feel... Weightless... Yeah, that's it weightless. Funny after those crazy 'human' dreams I usually feel wasted, but now... nothing. Nothing but the weightlessness and a mild rumbling. And some shaking. Yeah I can feel some shaking now. "...ke..up...wak...up..." and now a weird voice. Oh well sleep now worry later I guess. *** Silent Dreamer's POV: "WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" My throat hurts. I've been shouting this for what? minutes? I don't care. The fact that He can just lay down like this and sleep through a train ride with a stupid smile on His face like a doofus is reason enough to not care. I mean nopony, and i mean NOPONY could possibly sleep through all the clatter and noise from the carriage next to us. "Oh come on, we're already in Ponyville. Please wake up." Nothing, no response whatsoever. Apparently somepony can sleep through that. "You never change, do you? Guess there's no other choice then." Let me just get into position here... Good now just a slight magical push to the left, and... *** Download's POV: *CRASH* "My...h-head...hurts... That's one painful wake-up call. Ugh." As my eyes adjust to wakefulness I see... luggage... All of our luggage to be exact, and I'm buried under all of it. Oh joy. "Uh, Download. Are you awake now?" Dreamer? Yeah, I should have known She would do this to me. Can't blame her though, I am a heavy sleeper after all. "Sadly, yeah. Are we there yet?" I yawn out in reply. "Yes, we're here. Now hurry up, we need to talk things over with the mayor regarding our housing. Remember?" Brain loading... 18% Brain loading... 23% ERROR MEMORY NOT FOUND. "Uh... No?" "Yeah, I thought so. Seriously though where would you be without me?" And there's that smug grin on Her face. Just great, once again I have proven how useless I am. "Harsh words there Dreamer. So mind helping with the luggage?" Just get the keys to the house and sleep, yes sleep is good. But first, to get off from underneath the bags, and out the train. "Oh how rude, to ask a lady to carry the bags. How insensitive of you." The Canterlot accent? Really? She should act like this more often. "Ha-ha. Very funny, I meant your magic. Levitate them or something." This girl needs to stop with the drama. It's over rated. "OK, OK. Here up we go... Happy?" Ah finally, I'm free from those heavy things. "Yes, now we find the mayor and get the keys." Here's hoping Ponyville is a nice place to live after all. *** Well how do I describe Ponyville? It's quaint, small and looks peaceful. It's 4 pm now and ponies could be seen walking around in a leisurely pace. The air smells fresh and the sky is clear. The ponies are also kind, they wave and greet us as we pass with soft smiles on their faces. Asking for directions and finding the Mayor's office was easy. I mean literary, the building's in the middle of the town, right in the middle. And after some small talk, and a few signatures we got the key to our new home. And we set off to find our new house. "See I told you Ponyville was safe." "For now, yes. But that still doesn't change my point." "Oh sure, 'coz while I'm walking merrily along here some disastrous evil will strike me down or something? Really now, Discord is gone, Chrysalis is too, and life is good here again. What could possibly go wro-" *** Cutie Mark Crusaders POV: ~Far above a hill three fillies are arguing. "Are ya sure this will git us our cutie marks?" "Positive, I mean Rainbow Dash got hers from speed right?" "So we ride on your scooter down the hill? That's a little slow isn't it?" "I guess, but we have to try something right?" . . . "CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS SPEEDSTERS... GO!!!" *** Download's POV: "LOOK OUT MISTER!!!" Funny that accent sounds likreabursn's. Now where did that come from? *SMACK* Yep I just had to say that one line... didn't I?~ *** Silent Dreamer's POV: "You are such an idiot. You know that. Oh and girls?" "Oh Gosh, is he going to be all right?" "He's fine... I think, right Apple bloom?" "Well, he's still breathing, there's no blood... I think so?" "Girls?" "What are we going to do!?" "Calm down Sweetie bell, we'll say it was an accident." "Do ya really think knocking someone like that could be an accident?" "Um... Girls?" "Applejack will be so mad, she'll ground me for uh month." "And Rarity'll scold me for weeks." "No they won't. I think. Anyways we need to bring him to Nurse Red heart." "GIRLS! Do I have your attention now? Good, as I was saying that will not be necessary. Isn't that right Download? You can get up now." "But Dreamer~. Laying down on this dirt road is too comfy." "Yes and fooling kids is wrong. Now apologize." "He was... but we... now he's... Oh my..." "Wow, did she just faint?" "SWEETIE BELL!!" "We should probably get her someplace safe" "Yes, but where? We don't know the layout of this town yet." "Augh. Just levitate the three of them and let's head for the nearest building." Really now I haven't been here 30 minutes and I'm already in a world of trouble. "Hey lemme go!" "Hey this is foal-napping you know, you could get in serious trouble." "Yeah, I know... So what door to pick?" "Leggo 'o me!" "That spa is the closest one here, Why not check there?" "Heh, why not. I could use a massage right about now. Lets go." *DOOR CHIME*L.O.L. "Hello, and welcome to ze Ponyville Spa. What can we~ Uh, oh dear." "Before you freak out, can you at least show us to the hospital? We have this girl here, and she fainted." "Uh... oh yes, the hospital is. Well its down the main road and to behind the town library. But they're closed today, so..." "Of course. Any other bright ideas Download?" "As a matter of fact I do. Uh miss, how much for the whole body massage?" "You can't be serious." "Aloe, call Applejack! They're foal nappers!" "Yeah, if you could put us down now that would be great." "You're foal nappers?" "Yes, and no. You see. We can explain. Right Dreamer?" "Yes, you see they bumped into him and he~" "We got it already, it was our fault first. So could you please put us down now?" "Oh yeah, right. Sorry girls. And I'll just lay Sweetie on the couch here." "So what do we do now? Sweetie belle's unconscious, and Pinkie's not here to give the new guys a 'Welcome to Ponyville Party'." "Cool, a welcome Party... Wait a second." Loading... Loading..... Loading....... "A Welcome Party!?" "Download Focus, someone just fainted. Remember?" "What ya'll never heard 'o Pinkie Pie yet?" "No, never heard of her. Oh yeah Miss... Aloe? Give the poor fainted girl a full spa session would you?" "But she iz unconscious. We cannot possibly~" "Ugh, Wha-what? Where, where am I?" "Problem solved then. I'll pay you tomorrow. OK, bye." Wow, the first day and I got hit by three fillies, got one of them to faint, technically foal napped them, owe the local spa a full spa session, and apparently a 'Pinkie Pie' is going to throw us a party... This is probably a good time to leave town. Yep, definitely a good time to leave town. Okay, maybe after the party. "Dreamer do you remember where the mayor said our house was?" "Um, maybe? Wanna try asking directions again?" "Where ya'll headed to anyways?" "Looking for the house we bought, we just couldn't find it and then these fillies bumped into me and... Wait a second, It's just you." "Download be nice." "Nah, it was our fault there. We should've been more careful. So what're you lookin for?'" "Uh, what's the address again Dreamer?" "Well all it says on the key is 'HOUSE NUMBER: 255'. Any idea where that is?" ... "Ah think ah know that place..." Author's Note Wrote this on my Nokia 5310... again. MY NOKIA IS AWESOME PH34R IT... nope. Editing and uploading courtesy of random rental PC's. also colors, are awesome. so colorful. . . . meh... sleep... [000 - Download]It was a brand new day in equestria. The sun could be seen peeking over the horizon bathing the world with a nice blue glow, in other words it was going to be another good day... That is if you were NOT a pony named 'Download'. Lucky for the rest of you that pony is me. Unluckily for me that means moving day. And so here I am loading boxes of my stuff onto this old wagon so that I can tow it to the train station. LUNA DAMMIT, WHY WASN'T I BORN A BUCKING UNICORN. "Hey there 'D.' need any help with them boxes?" A voice behind me asks. Holy Luna's Moon! I have no idea who the hay this pony is. Let's see earth pony, pale yellow coat, equally pale yellow messy mane, brown pants, cowboy hat and vest thingie, an apple as a cutie mark, and an apploosean accent to boot. Uhh...insert generic response here? "Sorry there partner, memory here's a mite foggy these days. 'Ave we met b'fore?" Stay natural!, try to copy the accent, and stay calm. I SAID CALM DAMMIT. Damn this accent is hard. "Ah can't say that we 'ave. Nope, name's Braeburn." He offers me his hand for a shake and I grasp his hand. "Well, ya already know me I guess. Pleasure ta meet ya Braeburn." DAMN HIS GRASP IS TIGHT, the buck you trying to do break my hand? I swear my face is showing A LOT of pain right now. "Ah, sorry there 'mate don't know mah own strength sometimes. hehehe. So seein' as there's only like five-six boxes here, lemme jus' grab these two and... Where do ya need these again?" Damn did he just carry my whole refrigerator and my crate of books WITH ONE ARM EACH!? "Just load 'em on the wagon outside. Ah see workin' at the farm makes you apples stronger than you look." Damn what are his shoulders made of? Oh well I'll just take this one down and HEAVY. "And ah see that our jack-of -all-trades needs to work out more... And could you quit the accent I know it's fake." Okay so I'm not the strongest earth pony. Hey my accent isn't that bad. I just need practice is all. "Okay, so the accent was that bad was it?" DAMN YOU HEAVY CRATE. DAMN YOU STAIRS. DAMN YOU ALL TO THE MOON. "Nah sounded natural ta me." How can he not be tired with those two crates, I will never know. WAIT THE WAGON I CAN SEE IT. "Hahaha, you look like yur gonna keel over any second now." DON'T CARE, WAGON IN SIGHT. REST WILL BE MINE!!! "D. look out for the..." *SMASH* "Never mind." Note to self: THE GROUND BUCKING HURTS. "Am I still alive?" Let me see... I can feel my fingers. Check. Toes. Check. Breathing. Obviously. Weightlessness. Chec...wait WHAT. I open my eyes to see Silent Dreamer staring at me like I'm some sort of idiot... She's levitating me while I face the mother of all headaches. "Sadly yes... You're still alive. But, I couldn't say the same about the wagon though." Swirls... Swirly thingies everywhere... "Izz 'e gonna be alright?" Aww, he cares... "He's taken worse. Believe me not even Nightmare Moon herself can do anything permanent to this idiot." Yeah sure rub it in. I make one mistake with the support beam and... OUCH. "A warning next time BEFORE YOU DROP ME would be nice." I'm hitting the ground too many times today. "Yeah sure sure. So I see that you need some help. I'll go grab the other crates and we'll walk to the station. OK?" "Wai~ nevermind. Hey Braeburn, did the fall do anything to my face?" Today just isn't my day is it? First the stranger Braeburn, then the Luna damned crates, and now I feel dizzy from a face plant via a...wait a second. What did I trip on anyways? "Sadly partner, It's still the same 'ol face." Well that's a relief. Don't want to get to... Where was it again? "Don't just sit there like the idiot you are Download, let's get this stuff to the station. Today." She's levitating 3 crates in a pale grey field behind her, did I mention I wished I was born a unicorn? Yeah levitation like that would be really helpful. But sadly I'm no unicorn so lifting it is then. *** The walk to the station was in relative silence, if it wasn't for the occasional pony wishing me good luck I would've screamed for anyone to make a noise. I hate silence like that. Empty and dull. We put the crates down in the carrier of the train, we boarded and I took my seaton the carriage in front of Dreamer. She's grown into quite a catch these days. She has a figure likening her to who's that fancy-shmancy mare from canterlot?...Fleur, Fleur De Lis. A beautiful unicorn with a dazzling jet black mane and tail with a lone silver streak that frames her bright silver eyes. Her coat is a striking shade of grey that she so modestly covers with a cute blue dress. Her cutie mark is 3 z's in white [zzz], yes like the snoring symbol. We've known each other since we were foals. Sad to say, but sometimes she knows me more than I do myself. She's arrogant only when she sees me, when I'm not in her sight she's a cute little angel, a true lady, so says most of my friends anyways. To me she's like the sister I never had. "You're staring again." "Uhh. No I wasn't?" "Whatever. So Ponyville, why move there?" "Sounds like a good place to...you know lay back and relax. Plus I hear even the Princesses visit there frequently. So why not?" "Because, oh I don't know. Maybe the fact that Nightmare Moon first appeared there or maybe because Discord himself thrashed that place not too long ago. Take your pick." "Paranoia is not a very good habit there Dream. But yeah it might be dangerous... But doesn't that make it all the more exiting?" "Nothing wrong with being too careful." "Yeah, sure. You do that, I'll be catching some of your cutie marks in a minute so can you wake me up when we get there?" "S-s-sure n-no problem." Ah her blush, I love seeing that. It's just too cute. "Night night..." Sleep here I come. *** Silent Dreamer's POV: He's sleeping... After staring at me, messing with me and embarrassing me, he's sleeping... Oh well he's always been like that hasn't he? Doing things like an idiot, smashing into stuff, I mean he could have asked for some help with those crates. But he didn't... He looks peaceful when he's sleeping... It's a miracle he's still in one piece. I mean all he does for a living are odd jobs varying from cleaning windows to fixing stuff. His coat looks awfull though, must've been from the fall earlier. It's deep black color is speckled with dirt and other grime, His short dark green mane has some twigs and more dirt trapped in it... He needs a bath...like...now. Sadly at his age he still doesn't have his cutie mark... We've played jokes about him being a jack-of-all-trades among other stuff because of it. He doesn't seem to mind. "ALL ABOARD!!! TRAIN TO PONYVILLE!!!" I guess, we're leaving for ponyville huh. I wonder what awaits us there? Author's Note Author's note: Anthro, Furry, Whatever you call them. Basically humanoid, covered with fur (or a coat), horns for unicorns, wings for pegasi, and yes they wear clothes. So what else... Cutie marks. Cutie marks are found at the back of the palm, and on the ass.

"Before you freak out, can you at least show us to the hospital? We have this girl here, and she fainted." "Uh... oh yes, the hospital is. Well its down the main road and to behind the town library. But they're closed today, so..." "Of course. Any other bright ideas Download?" "As a matter of fact I do. Uh miss, how much for the whole body massage?" "You can't be serious." "Aloe, call Applejack! They're foal nappers!" "Yeah, if you could put us down now that would be great." "You're foal nappers?" "Yes, and no. You see. We can explain. Right Dreamer?" "Yes, you see they bumped into him and he~" "We got it already, it was our fault first. So could you please put us down now?" "Oh yeah, right. Sorry girls. And I'll just lay Sweetie on the couch here." "So what do we do now? Sweetie belle's unconscious, and Pinkie's not here to give the new guys a 'Welcome to Ponyville Party'." "Cool, a welcome Party... Wait a second." Loading... Loading..... Loading....... "A Welcome Party!?" "Download Focus, someone just fainted. Remember?" "What ya'll never heard 'o Pinkie Pie yet?" "No, never heard of her. Oh yeah Miss... Aloe? Give the poor fainted girl a full spa session would you?" "But she iz unconscious. We cannot possibly~" "Ugh, Wha-what? Where, where am I?" "Problem solved then. I'll pay you tomorrow. OK, bye." Wow, the first day and I got hit by three fillies, got one of them to faint, technically foal napped them, owe the local spa a full spa session, and apparently a 'Pinkie Pie' is going to throw us a party... This is probably a good time to leave town. Yep, definitely a good time to leave town. Okay, maybe after the party. "Dreamer do you remember where the mayor said our house was?" "Um, maybe? Wanna try asking directions again?" "Where ya'll headed to anyways?" "Looking for the house we bought, we just couldn't find it and then these fillies bumped into me and... Wait a second, It's just you." "Download be nice." "Nah, it was our fault there. We should've been more careful. So what're you lookin for?'" "Uh, what's the address again Dreamer?" "Well all it says on the key is 'HOUSE NUMBER: 255'. Any idea where that is?" ... "Ah think ah know that place..." Author's Note Wrote this on my Nokia 5310... again.

[000 - Download]It was a brand new day in equestria. The sun could be seen peeking over the horizon bathing the world with a nice blue glow, in other words it was going to be another good day... That is if you were NOT a pony named 'Download'. Lucky for the rest of you that pony is me. Unluckily for me that means moving day. And so here I am loading boxes of my stuff onto this old wagon so that I can tow it to the train station. LUNA DAMMIT, WHY WASN'T I BORN A BUCKING UNICORN. "Hey there 'D.' need any help with them boxes?" A voice behind me asks. Holy Luna's Moon! I have no idea who the hay this pony is. Let's see earth pony, pale yellow coat, equally pale yellow messy mane, brown pants, cowboy hat and vest thingie, an apple as a cutie mark, and an apploosean accent to boot. Uhh...insert generic response here? "Sorry there partner, memory here's a mite foggy these days. 'Ave we met b'fore?" Stay natural!, try to copy the accent, and stay calm. I SAID CALM DAMMIT. Damn this accent is hard. "Ah can't say that we 'ave. Nope, name's Braeburn." He offers me his hand for a shake and I grasp his hand. "Well, ya already know me I guess. Pleasure ta meet ya Braeburn." DAMN HIS GRASP IS TIGHT, the buck you trying to do break my hand? I swear my face is showing A LOT of pain right now. "Ah, sorry there 'mate don't know mah own strength sometimes. hehehe. So seein' as there's only like five-six boxes here, lemme jus' grab these two and... Where do ya need these again?" Damn did he just carry my whole refrigerator and my crate of books WITH ONE ARM EACH!? "Just load 'em on the wagon outside. Ah see workin' at the farm makes you apples stronger than you look." Damn what are his shoulders made of? Oh well I'll just take this one down and HEAVY. "And ah see that our jack-of -all-trades needs to work out more... And could you quit the accent I know it's fake." Okay so I'm not the strongest earth pony. Hey my accent isn't that bad. I just need practice is all. "Okay, so the accent was that bad was it?" DAMN YOU HEAVY CRATE. DAMN YOU STAIRS. DAMN YOU ALL TO THE MOON. "Nah sounded natural ta me." How can he not be tired with those two crates, I will never know. WAIT THE WAGON I CAN SEE IT. "Hahaha, you look like yur gonna keel over any second now." DON'T CARE, WAGON IN SIGHT. REST WILL BE MINE!!! "D. look out for the..." *SMASH* "Never mind." Note to self: THE GROUND BUCKING HURTS. "Am I still alive?" Let me see... I can feel my fingers. Check. Toes. Check. Breathing. Obviously. Weightlessness. Chec...wait WHAT. I open my eyes to see Silent Dreamer staring at me like I'm some sort of idiot... She's levitating me while I face the mother of all headaches. "Sadly yes... You're still alive. But, I couldn't say the same about the wagon though." Swirls... Swirly thingies everywhere... "Izz 'e gonna be alright?" Aww, he cares... "He's taken worse. Believe me not even Nightmare Moon herself can do anything permanent to this idiot." Yeah sure rub it in. I make one mistake with the support beam and... OUCH. "A warning next time BEFORE YOU DROP ME would be nice." I'm hitting the ground too many times today. "Yeah sure sure. So I see that you need some help. I'll go grab the other crates and we'll walk to the station. OK?" "Wai~ nevermind. Hey Braeburn, did the fall do anything to my face?" Today just isn't my day is it? First the stranger Braeburn, then the Luna damned crates, and now I feel dizzy from a face plant via a...wait a second. What did I trip on anyways? "Sadly partner, It's still the same 'ol face." Well that's a relief. Don't want to get to... Where was it again? "Don't just sit there like the idiot you are Download, let's get this stuff to the station. Today." She's levitating 3 crates in a pale grey field behind her, did I mention I wished I was born a unicorn? Yeah levitation like that would be really helpful. But sadly I'm no unicorn so lifting it is then. *** The walk to the station was in relative silence, if it wasn't for the occasional pony wishing me good luck I would've screamed for anyone to make a noise. I hate silence like that. Empty and dull. We put the crates down in the carrier of the train, we boarded and I took my seaton the carriage in front of Dreamer. She's grown into quite a catch these days. She has a figure likening her to who's that fancy-shmancy mare from canterlot?...Fleur, Fleur De Lis. A beautiful unicorn with a dazzling jet black mane and tail with a lone silver streak that frames her bright silver eyes. Her coat is a striking shade of grey that she so modestly covers with a cute blue dress. Her cutie mark is 3 z's in white [zzz], yes like the snoring symbol. We've known each other since we were foals. Sad to say, but sometimes she knows me more than I do myself. She's arrogant only when she sees me, when I'm not in her sight she's a cute little angel, a true lady, so says most of my friends anyways. To me she's like the sister I never had. "You're staring again." "Uhh. No I wasn't?" "Whatever. So Ponyville, why move there?" "Sounds like a good place to...you know lay back and relax. Plus I hear even the Princesses visit there frequently. So why not?" "Because, oh I don't know. Maybe the fact that Nightmare Moon first appeared there or maybe because Discord himself thrashed that place not too long ago. Take your pick." "Paranoia is not a very good habit there Dream. But yeah it might be dangerous... But doesn't that make it all the more exiting?" "Nothing wrong with being too careful." "Yeah, sure. You do that, I'll be catching some of your cutie marks in a minute so can you wake me up when we get there?" "S-s-sure n-no problem." Ah her blush, I love seeing that. It's just too cute. "Night night..." Sleep here I come. *** Silent Dreamer's POV: He's sleeping... After staring at me, messing with me and embarrassing me, he's sleeping... Oh well he's always been like that hasn't he? Doing things like an idiot, smashing into stuff, I mean he could have asked for some help with those crates. But he didn't... He looks peaceful when he's sleeping... It's a miracle he's still in one piece. I mean all he does for a living are odd jobs varying from cleaning windows to fixing stuff. His coat looks awfull though, must've been from the fall earlier. It's deep black color is speckled with dirt and other grime, His short dark green mane has some twigs and more dirt trapped in it... He needs a bath...like...now. Sadly at his age he still doesn't have his cutie mark... We've played jokes about him being a jack-of-all-trades among other stuff because of it. He doesn't seem to mind. "ALL ABOARD!!! TRAIN TO PONYVILLE!!!" I guess, we're leaving for ponyville huh. I wonder what awaits us there? Author's Note Author's note: Anthro, Furry, Whatever you call them. Basically humanoid, covered with fur (or a coat), horns for unicorns, wings for pegasi, and yes they wear clothes. So what else... Cutie marks. Cutie marks are found at the back of the palm, and on the ass.
