My Little Pony - the Day Skye Arrived - Incomplete
Chapter 5: 5. Chapter 5: A Meeting With The Mane Six
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"If you could give me a chance or something, I could show you that I'm no threat" he said, "I mean, it's not like I could take on six ponies even if I tried, right?" he finished with a cheesy smile, trying to get Twilight's trust.
Twilight finished studying him, and then said, "Alright then, one chance, and if you ruin that, I will get Celestia to rid of you" she said though gritted teeth. Skye started to sweat again,
"Celestia?" he questioned. Twilight ignored the question and said,
"Come with me, I'll take you to the lib- No, I have a better idea" and they both with Applejack started walking towards the other four. Twilight pointed at each pony, individually saying their names, "This is Pinkie Pie" she said, the pink pony seemed ready to take down they prey, "This is Rarity" but the white pony huffed. Skye recognised her.
"Hey, aren't you the pony who I saw when I woke up?" he asked. Rarity looked disgusted,
"Yes, I am, and you looked very scared, and then you passed out" she said. Skye was disappointed; he hoped they'd be kinder than this.
"Passive aggressive much?" he asked. Rarity raised an eyebrow. "Never mind" finished Skye; he looked at Twilight, and "Continue" he muttered. Twilight pointed at a cyan pony with a rainbow mane, but before Twilight could speak, the pony said,
"I'm Rainbow Dash!" she said.
'It's the tomboy!' Thought Skye, then he actually spoke, "I'll silence you in a minute" he said. She looked at him with cold eyes. Then he looked at her, "It was a joke. You know, because of what you said earlier?" he asked. She didn't laugh or anything.
Twilight pointed lastly at a yellow pony, with a pink mane. She looked timid and really cute, unbelievably cute. "Wow" he said forgetting he was speaking aloud. Twilight snorted a bit,
"That's Fluttershy" she said. Skye thought she looked pretty, a lot prettier than the others, but that wasn't for him to decide.
"Fluttershy, I want to thank you about earlier" he said. Fluttershy's voice was quiet and even cuter than her looks,
"Why, what about?" she asked, staring at the ground.
"You know, the 'Maybe he's not evil' thing. It was really nice of you to consider I'm not a bad person" he said. Fluttershy looked up a bit, saw him, squealed and looked back at the ground.
"Are you… scared of me?" he asked. Fluttershy coughed, but she was just doing it because she was nervous.
"N-No" she said anxiously. Skye walked over to her after looking at Twilight for permission, these ponies would do anything to protect their friends.
"Fluttershy, you have no need to be afraid. I would never harm any animal, in fact, I have four pets at home, although one ran away" he said. Fluttershy gradually looked up,
"What happened to them?" she asked. Skye didn't know, he put up help posters and asked locals, but his dog Aaron was gone.
"I don't know I've been trying to find him for a week now" he said. Fluttershy seemed upset,
"Poor creature, I hope he's okay" she mumbled. Skye thought it appropriate to raise her face so he could see her properly, so he put his hand on her chin and looked at her. She seemed very scared,
"Fluttershy, imagine me as a… dog, okay?" he said, Fluttershy back away and looked at him properly,
"Okay" she said.
"Well, a dog is loyal right?" he asked. Fluttershy thought,
"I suppose so" she came up with. Skye continued,
"And a good dog wouldn't hurt people, would it?" he asked. She nodded. Skye smiled, "That's me, loyal and neutral, I've been bullied all my life, and I don't have the ability or personality or hurt anyone" he said. Her mouth bent slightly and she started to smile,
"Alright, if you say" she giggled slightly.
"You know, this is the first time anyone has ever laughed at me in a nice way I think" said Skye. Fluttershy put a hoof on his shoulder,
"You won't be bullied here" she said, "There are bullies, and they're horrible, but we'll make sure you are okay" she said. Skye felt a tear in his eye and wiped it,
"That's very kind of you" he said, then he turned back around to Twilight, "So, what's this plan of yours?" he asked. Twilight grinned,
"We're going to town" she said.
Every other pony there said "WHAT?!" in unison, including Skye.
Elsewhere
A tall white pony with a multi-coloured cloud like mane stands alone on a balcony, overlooking a huge town, filled with stands and crowds of ponies, but they looked more posh than those of Ponyville. A smaller, maybe younger pony walks up beside her, "Has he arrived yet?" she says in a soft voice. The white pony's face it out of view,
"Yes, and it is here where their journey to friendship begins" she said.
As the day became evening and the sky became a deeper shade of blue, Skye and the six were continuing of their journey to the town, in which he'd been run out of previously. Skye though about how bad humans must have been for him to see the malice in Twilights eyes. "Does any… pony hate me?" he asked. Twilight stopped, and sighed. Then she slowly turned around and looked at him,
"No, we don't hate you, you have proven to be good, kind, intellectual, if we did hate you, we would have destroyed you when we had the chance" she said. Skye face-palmed and then shrugged.
He looked at the other ponies, Fluttershy, who wasn't as scared as before, "Fluttershy?" he asked. She looked at him, with fear in her eyes, she was scared, and she was trying to keep it back though,
"Yes?" she asked with a quiet voice. Skye blushed,
"It doesn't matter, I can ask you later" he said. Fluttershy shrugged it off and carried on looking ahead of her. He looked at Rainbow Dash too.
"Rainbow Dash?" he asked. She looked at him, in her eyes there was only hate.
"Yes?" she said through gritted teeth while turning back around.
"Why do you hate me in particular?" he asked. Rainbow Dash coughed, and ignored him. Skye ran up to her, until he was by her side, "Hello? Miss little irritated-", he said, before Rainbow Dash turned and punched him in the cheek, causing him to stumble backwards. "What the hell!" he shouted. Rainbow got in his face,
"Don't ever speak to me, you worthless, insolent piece of garbage!" she shouted, spitting on him and spreading her wings.
"You know", said Skye, "I never thought someone as pretty as you would be so… feisty" he said sarcastically. She looked at him with pure hate and sped away in a blur or colours, like before. Skye looked at Twilight, "You know, I'm gonna assume that if someone leaves, it means they have no trust or respect for me" he said. Twilight only nodded. Skye looked at Pinkie, but she shook her head, as did Rarity, he got back up and they started walking again.
