Chapter 2 - Waking up

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

My gut flared in pain, my head felt dizzy and weak. I didn't groan this time when I awoke, this time I gasped, I shot up, I had a few seconds to realize, my mid-section was held down by a purple aura, I glared at the lavender pony off to my right holding me down with fear in its eyes, its horn seemed to be a lit by a mystical glow. I sputtered in my raspy voice, "Who are you?". It cocked its head and responded but not letting up the magic that seemed to hold me down. "You.... You, speak Equestrian?" She, I assumed it was a she, continued, "What, are you?"

"If you let up this magic, because its starting to hurt now, ill tell you." I responded

"Now, why would I do that?" She said with a sly grin, realizing she had power over me

"I would burn you," I showed her by spouting a flame from my hand, "But, I would much rather not have to torch your lovely abode." I grinned showing my fangs.

At this she let me up, but kept her horn lit, then a door opened above me, I looked up a staircase to see a purple bi-pedal dragon come out and yawn, "Twilight..." The rest was cut off as he stared at me, "Twilight... what... is that?" He kept on staring. I responded with venom laced in my voice, "Dragon..." but I was also curious, this is the first bi-pedal, and dragon of this sort I've ever face. I was thrown against the wall by the lavender mare's telekinetic powers, "What are you?" She asked, "WHAT ARE YOU?" She asked again this time making me cringe.

Of course you wouldn't expect a Argonian to cringe to a mere pony, but her horn was flaring and I wasn't liking the all to familiar look of anger on her face. "I'm an Argonian," I looked at her and gave a sly grin, "I've got magic too by the way." I activated my ability of histskin, which instantly started sucking up the mare's magical energy. I was able to get up, as her magic started fading and lost its ability to hurt me as I gained in strength from the energy she supplied me. I looked back at the dragon, which was now writing a message, "Dragon," At this he looked back shocked to see me no longer being held down, "Pray tell, who is that message for?" He just gulped and went back down to writing it.

The lavender mare, eventually gave up and flopped to the floor, obviously drained. I glanced over at her, "You know, I would very much appreciate it, if you didn't try and lock me up, also I thought you'd stop when you realized your power was being drawn." I looked back at the dragon, I using my rarely used spell, telekinesis, I grabbed the letter and brought it over, the dragon was currently trying to grab hold of it, only ripping it on the corner. It read.

Dear,

Princess Celestia

We have a very urgent situation going on at Twilight's house, please get here with haste, we need your direct intervention. A strange creature ha

I grimaced at the letter, I looked at the dragon who was looking quite nervous, I threw the letter down, burning it, but having atleast enough caution to not burn the tree, I looked over at the lavender mare that had finally found her feet, sorry hooves and was giving me a venomous glare. "So," I started, "what exactly is your name, where are we, what time is it and why do you have a pet dragon?" I said the last part giving the small bi-pedal creature a glare that could kill a Nord.

She took a shaky breath, "My name is Twilight, we are in Ponyville, its about evening, and I have a baby dragon as a assistant." I gave her a surprised look, "You gave the information, almost willingly, not as if I hadn't just threatened you and your pet dragon." She looked at me confused, before replying, "Now you tell me about yourself, you said something about being an Argonian, now what is that?" She had recovered enough to say this without stuttering or at the very least looking tired.

I started with my heritage, where I came from, told her I was a dragonborn, what happened up to the point where I came here, and my name, Jiques. After this little talk, she just seemed interested, but before she could ask any questions, I asked mine. "Twilight, what is your dragon's name?" I asked. She was about to respond but the tiny creature beat her to it, "My name is Spike." He said through clenched teeth, I could tell he didn't like the whole dragonborn thing. "So, you can shout or produce a Thu'um and each one has different abilities?" Twilight asked. "Care to demonstrate?" I answered by simply looking at her bookshelves and yelling "FUS RO DAH!" and the entire wall of books fell to the floor in a very dramatic style.

She looked dumbstruck, as her jaw hung opened. She shook her head and looked at me, "That is incredible! And you only did that with your voice!" She looked impressed but a few seconds later, someone was knocking on the door. Twilight quickly shot up and said, "Quick, hide in the kitchen!" I just turned invisible and stood by the kitchen door. Twilight opened the door to see a orange pony with a blonde mane. However she didn't have a horn or wings, the orange one said "Hey Twi, ah heard some shoutin' comin' from y'all's house so ah decided to check it out, everythin' okay?" The orange mare looked worried, "Yeah, Applejack everything is fine, just a shelf broke and I got frustrated." Twilight said smiling dismissively. Applejack tried to look behind her, but Twilight blocked her view, "Okay, but just come an' get me if ya need anythin' okay?" She said in her deep southern accent, Twilight just nodded as Applejack turned to walk away.

Twilight closed the door and turned around to go to the kitchen, I materialized in front of her giving her a start, she backpedaled a bit before she calmed down. "So that was one of your friends I presume." I stated, she just nodded weakly. "I don't think she was taking this well" I thought to myself, as I was about to ask her where I would sleep, because I had noticed it was starting to turn dark, Spike coughed up some green flame and I drew my sword instinctively, but quickly holstered it as I saw a message fall from the flames he spewed.

Spike grabbed it and opened it, before Twilight could do anything he read.

Dear,

Twilight Sparkle

I have found a large area full of magical residue in the Everfree forest, I believe something may have transported from another world, but there is nothing within the vicinity so I warn you to be cautious, this thing may be dangerous.

From,

Princess Celestia
