The Tone of Forgotten Bells

As the train continued to go speed along the tracks, on its way to Ponyville a stray beam of sunlight hit your eyes for a little rude awakening. After completing your morning rituals and leaving your room one of the staff members was passing by so you decided to ask how far away from Ponyville the train was. He told you that they were just a hour away from their destination, so you decided to go back to your room. As you lay back down a sudden thought popped up. What are you going to do when you get there? Where will you go? You just hoped that someone you used to know would be there to give you a hoof, but thankfully Fix left you a couple of bits till you can get job at Ponyville. After about an hour the train was nearing the stop, so as you grabbed your saddle bags and stepped off the train you glanced at the small town that left you breathless. The sun was shining bright, cheerful ponies all around, you’ve only been here for just about a minute and it already looked like the complete opposite of you’re so called “home”. Your train of thought was interrupted by a sudden boom sound where a pink mare with poufy hair was greeting everyone. As she was greeting people, she suddenly kicked her left hind leg and then her ears twitched, after she started looking around till she caught sight of you with a gasp and then suddenly you were attacked by a blur of pink. But as you opened your eyes she was right there with a excited look on her face.

“OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh I remember you, you were that colt that always hanged around the CMC members. So what are you like now? You have a new mane style now, what’s your favorite color? Again will all these questions but this hyper active mare seemed to recognize you. As you cut her off and ask who she was her hair flattened and her smile disappeared.

“You’re saying that you don’t remember me. But how? You lived her for years and were always causing trouble.” Once she said that a hard feeling hit you in the gut and feeling bad that you did this, you decided to tell her about the little incident while moving your mane out of the way to show a scar. She gasped but hearing why her hair returned a little back to normal but just with less spring in her step. So she asked you to follow her but she was dashing off ahead. But before she said her name was Pinkie Pie, an odd name just fitting perfectly for an odd pony. A lot of pones were giving you and this mare looks as she dragged you across the ground. When she finally stopped you looked up to see a house that looked like it was made of candy. She quickly said it was called SugerCube Corner and dragged you inside.

“Oui! Pinkie where have you been mom & dad were curious as to why you weren’t here when they woke up.” Said a voice a little scratchy probably an early teenaged stallion. When you looked it was a Pegasus with a tan coat and brown mane. He gave you a curious look but Pinkie quickly whispered in his ear something.

“Really you want me to go now but I have work to do.” He said quietly to the pink mare. After about five minutes of talking he finally gave a sigh in defeat.

“Well now I will be stepping out for a bit then, Pinkie make sure not to drive him to crazy. Oh and by the way the name’s Pound I heard you were a sort of godfather to me when I was a baby but see you later.” Pound proceeded out the door and with the sound of flapping wings meaning he took off. After five minutes of talking with Pinkie explaining who you once knew. It appears you were a student of thee Twilight Sparkle. You were always good with magic but to be trained under the Princess of Magic herself made you spit take.

“Pinkie who are you talking to and where did Pound disappear to?” Said a famine voice that once again sounded like an early teenager. A unicorn with a yellow coat and orange mane walks in and is a little surprise to see you. When Pinkie explained the situation she already had the sigh of defeat before an argument had begun apparently she was used to this type of thing.

“Sorry about Pinkie if she is interrogating you my name is Carrot Cake but you can called me CC.” She said with a smile. When you talked with Pinkie and CC for a while Pound cake came back in but with an orange mare with a purple mane and tail by him. Off the tip of your tongue she looked quite familiar.

“So Pinkie what is this ‘surprise you speak of’ said the orange Pegasus. Pinkie dashed over to her and whispered in her ear something. She suddenly gasped and took off directly at you surprising you with a hug that knocked you out of your seat.

“OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh I can’t believe it’s really you! So tell me how have things been for you?” She said, and it looks like it’s going to get a little awkward since she knows you but you don’t know her. Pinkie quickly gave a look of concern and whispered in the orange Pegasus’s ear.

“What do you mean that all questions will be answered when they get here I want to catch up with him while we wait.” Pinkie quickly gave her a dark look the scared you and her so she remained silent. The sudden chime of the bell broke the silence as an Earth Pony with a yellow coat and red mane with a scarf tied around her neck walked in. As once again the process continued just like when the Orange Mare walked in she jumped at you and gave you a strong huge. Definitely a farmer girl considering her accent when she greeted you and her strength. She and the Orange Pegasus were talking to themselves waiting for the last person to show up. When the bell chimed both of the unnamed mares jumped out of their seats and rushed to the door. After about five minutes of talking in the other room a stamped of hooves could be heard as you turned your head a blur of white quickly knocks you out of your seat for the third time!

“Hey I can’t believe it’s you! So tell us how things have been.” Pinkie explained to PC and CC about your condition with your approval of course so they had the now three unnamed mares sit down.

“Come on Pinkie let us talk to him.” Said the orange Pegasus. CC quickly told her that everything will now be explained. “All right I’m sorry for this but I don’t remember any of you.” You said while looking down to avoid seeing their faces. You heard a little sniffle and silence but Pound said that there is a valid reason for this.

“All right if you wouldn’t mind will you please tell us?” Said the White unicorn, her voice it’s just so soothing, you thought silently.

“All right it started about six years ago. I was showing my friends a new magic spell I learned but something horrible went wrong with the it causing all of us to teleport all of us near a cliff which broke off causing us all to fall. I used my magic once again to save us but will all that magic energy used I teleported us to safety but landed on my horn causing a huge magic burst the left a very nasty injury on my head and giving me Amnesia. I was in a coma for four months before I woke up and knew nothing of my past besides anything basic learned in school.” You moved your mane that covered the scar and they gasped and look at you with glassy eyes. They then walked over to you and proceeded to hug you which was rather unnatural to you being from a gloomy village.

“I guess we will just have to accept this isn’t we even though the memories we had with you are forgotten in your eyes.” Said the white mare. The other two mares did the same thing and shook their heads.

“Well I guess we should start off with who we are I’m Sweetie Belle.” The white mare now known as Sweetie Belle said.

“The name’s Applebloom.”

“My name is Scootaloo, but you can call me Scoots.” The now known three mares already knew your name so you didn’t have to bother with introductions.“Wells it’s nice to meet you all but now my next question is, where am I going to stay?” Pinkie, Carrot, and Pound all looked at each other and told you there was no more room in there house.  The three mares around you all looked at each other and Applebloom nodded to them.

“Ya can stay with my Family and I we have plenty of room at our farm.” After a couple of minutes sorting everything out and gather your things. All of you agreed with this and walked to Appleblooms home while they told you how they knew you. Apparently you were in a group called the Cutie Mark Crusaders which makes sense since occasional one or two of the foals in your old town would salute you or ask for an autograph. I guess after you moved a branch was started there thanks to you so now that question was cleared up. You were the first of them to gain a cutie mark which was a magic tome. It shows you had a skill with magic and it makes sense since Pinkie told you that Twilight Sparkle was your teacher. When you arrived at this Apple Farm an orange mare and a Red stallion were talking on the porch.

“AppleBloom you’re back so what was the reason why you had to leave the farm so suddenly?” Applebloom introduced you to this orange mare that then had a shocked reaction to who you were. She then hugged you but once again you were uneasy and she let you go and asked if you remembered her. How many ponies do you have to tell your secret to but Applebloom said there was a reason but you would rather not explain it. \

“Sorry ‘bout that partner since you don’t remember me ta name is AppleJack and this big feller is Big Macintosh.” The big red stallion nodded at you and you nodded back. Applebloom asked if you could stay since you don’t have a place and she gladly said yes. Sweetie Belle and Scoots said that they had to go and after a quick bye hug they began walking back into town. AppleBloom and Applejack talked to you over dinner about what you were like and what adventures you went on. They told you how you got your cutie mark when a pack of Timber Wolves tried to attack you guys but you suddenly had a burst of magic that beat most of them while the others fled. After dinner AppleJack showed you the room that was going to serving as yours. You unpacked what little you had and began resting on the bed while looking at the night sky. If it was one thing that comforted you was the night sky the stars and the moon always there and always shining it made you relax. You closed your eyes and began falling into the most peaceful sleep you have had for a long time.
