Darkfire Universe: Arrival Remake

null

"Hello, new pony!" I fall back into the library. Standing in front of me is a pink mare, with goofy hair and balloons on her flank.

Welcome Welcome Welcome, a fine welcome to you.

Welcome Welcome Welcome I say how do you do?

Welcome welcome welcome, I say hip hip hooray!

Welcome welcome welcome to Ponyville today!!!!

Throughout the song, Pinkie pulls instruments out of what I recognize as 'hammerspace'. Twilight's horn lights up, and Pinkie is thrown into the library. She slams the door and motions for me to take off my disguise as she turn to Pinkie. "Pinkie, this is Darkfire. He is not from around here. Another world, actually." I take off the disguise, reverting to my human form.

Pinkie's eyes grow wide. "Omygosh! A human!"

"How-" I begin to say, but Twilight cuts me off.

"Don't question it. Believe me, I've tried." I nod, then we turn to Pinkie. "Pinkie, Darkfire can't let anypony know he is a human yet, or everypony will freak out. We were about to go see Rainbow Dash. Do you want to come?" Pinkie nods, and I put the disguise back on.

We set out towards a cloud house in the distance, and I worry about what Twilight's other friends are like.

We step up to the cloud house. Suddenly, somebody yells "Watch out, girls!" and something rams into me, knocking me to the ground.

"Rainbow!" Twilight says angrily, shoving the pony off my back. "Get off him!" I get up and brush myself off. I look over at the newcomer, who is grinning sheepishly. She is a cyan Pegasus mare with a rainbow mane and tail.

"Sorry, new pony! I wasn't paying attention to where I was going, and didn't see the three of you until it was too late."

"I can see that," I say, giving the Pegasus a bemused look.

Twilgiht walks over to the two of us. "Rainbow Dash, this is Darkfire. He has a secret that only Pinkie and I know about. Can you meet us in the library in thirty minutes?"

'Rainbow Dash' looks at me curiously. "Okay, I'll be there. But it better be a big important secret. I'm training! See you around, new pony!" She takes off, leaving a rainbow trail behind.

Twilight gives an apologetic smile. "Sorry. Rainbow Dash can be kind of, well, reckless."

I grin. "No problem. One of my friends, Zap, used to be like that, until he..." I trail off, thinking about my old teammate who died at the hands of Dr. Light.

Pinkie distracts me from my thoughts. "Let's go get Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy!"

What kinds of names are those? I think as we walk towards a carousel off in the distance.

Ding!

I spin around when I hear the bell. "Welcome to Carousel Boutique, where every garment is chic, unique, and magnifique!" I see Pinkie and Twilight walk in. "Oh, hello girls! What brings you here?" It is then that I see the black Pegasus standing between them. "Who is this?"

Darkfire's POV

"Who is this?" the Unicorn asks the girls. I stand up and walk over to the white unicorn. From what Twilight had told me, she is very poise and proper.

"Milady, I am Darkfire. It is a pleasure to meet you!" I pick up her hoof and kiss it.

Twilight groans then pulls me away from the surprised unicorn using her magic. "Rarity, can you meet us at the library in..." she checks her watch. "27 minutes?" Rarity nods, and Twilight drags me out of the room.

We walk onto the farm, and I see an orange pony run up and kick a tree, making apples fall into a bucket under the tree. She turns and see us. "Howdy ya'll! Who's the new pony?"

I grin. "My name is Darkfire." She walks up and grabs my hoof. She shakes it extremely hard, then lets it go. Even after she lets go, my hand shakes uncontrollably until Twilight stops it.

"Ah'm Applejack, nice ta meet'cha."

Twilight looks over to Applejack. "Applejack, can you meet us at the library in 20 minutes?'

"Shore, Twilight. Let me just finish up mah daily work!"

"Helllo!" I call to the butter-hued Pegasus. She jumps two feet into the air and jumps into a bush. "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I'm Darkfire. Twilight sent me to tell you that she wants to meet you in the library as soon as possible." I slowly walk away, not wanting to scare the timid pony.

The 4 ponies stood in front of us, while Twilight explained who I am. When she finished, Rainbow Dash looked at me skeptically. "How do I know he's not lying about who he is? I mean, he does look like a pony." As soon as she finishes, I take off the disguise. "Oh, never mind!" I chuckle at her response

Twilght continues. "Anyways, Spike has already sent a letter to the Princess, and she'll find him a way home. Until then-" Suddenly, a yellow glow appears around my body, and I start to fade.

"What's going on?!" I manage to get out before my head fades away.
