The Great Battle for Equestria

I woke up Monday morning with an awful headache, much like the ones you get when your younger brother wakes you up early by jumping on your bed and yelling "WAKE UP!" in your ears. This morning was like any other Monday. Boring, despised, hated, dreadful, beginning of the week, awful and terrible. All those words come to mind when I think of the word "Monday". I looked out the window of my home and noticed the sky was completely clear, not a cloud in sight over this area or the town. I drank some water and left my house; ready for a brand new day.

When I walked outside, everything seemed so calm. "A fresh morning like always," I said to myself whilst yawning. I slid down the hill behind my house and to my surprise, she was sitting there. Playing her flute. Such a beautiful tune. She walked over to me and I didn't notice while I was dazed by the beautiful music.
"Blast? Didn't expect to see you up and about so early," Zephyra said smiling at me. "You alright?"
"Hu- Oh, yeah. I'm fine, sorry. Just kinda tired," I replied.
"That's fine, just don't scare me like that alright?" I nodded back to her in reply. Me and Zephyra walked down to the lake, where to my amazement, we saw another pony.

"Hey there!" I shouted to the other pony. He was blue with a dark blue mane. He turned around to face me.
"Oh, hello there. Just taking a look at this lovely lake. I know it's a bit early, but I had just moved here and heard it was one of the best attractions around the area," He said with a smile.
"Yeah, I will give it that much. This lake is pretty nice. I'm glad I got the house closest to it when I moved up here, can't believe no one else wanted such a great view," I said.
"I don't either, but I was born here so it really wouldn't matter," Zephyra said with a grin.
"Well, will you two come with me for a little week's trip? It'd just be one small favour," Said the blue pony. "Oh yes, and my name is Vellium."
"Alright, I'll come along, got nothing better to do and the Equestria 500 is in two weeks," I said happily.
"Count me in too! Not gonna let Blast go without me, he'll break a wing or something," and Zephyra giggled.
"That was just mean..." All three of us laughed together.
