An interesting predicament
Chapter 2
Previous Chapter Next ChapterSo after deciding that I should really get some sleep and then learn how to walk I managed to relax and fall asleep.
The next day I wake up and try to get out of bed. I very greet the floor and remember I have 4 hooves now and shouldn’t try to walk upright. I then start walking on my new 4 legs and realize it’s not as hard as I previously thought I walk outside to see the smoke is still billowing up from my crater. I watch it with fascination and a little guilt that I’m probably destroying a good chunk of the forest right now. As I start to wander around a pink pony ambushes me from behind.
“Morning…”
She starts to say before she realizes she doesn’t know me.
“A new friend! Hi I’m pinkie pie! What’s your name?”
“Uh, G.I.” I say wondering how she could be so energetic.
“I gotta go and set up your welcome party!”
“Okay?”
Pinkie pie then bounces away singing something.
“Well that was odd”
“So how do your wings feel?”
I turn and notice spike is standing next to me pointing at my bandaged torso.
“Wings? I don’t have any wings.”
“Of course you do here look”
Spike then starts taking my bandages off and I see that he’s right I really have a set of wings
“I didn’t even know I had them, I don’t even know how to use them.”
“Oh don’t worry about that I’m sure Fluttershy can teach you the basics and then if you want Rainbow dash can teach you some tricks”
I nod while trying how to make my new wings move.
“Anyway lemme give you the grand tour of Twilight’s house and the town.
“Okay lead then lead the way”
Spike nods and leads me through Twilights book filled house as I walk into the main room I realize just how much she likes to read and how the air is saturated with magic.
“This is the library and main room, on your right and up those stairs is Twilight’s room across from her room is your room, then if you head straight you’ll find the kitchen and bathroom, and that’s about it also the basement is where Twilight does most of her magic experiments so it’s probably best if you don’t go down there unless she says so.”
“Okay, you know anywhere to get something to eat?”
Spike thinks for a second.
“Well since you don’t eat gems I’d recommend going to the bakery down the road they make great cupcakes.”
“As long as they make something I can eat I don’t care I’m starving, I’ll see you later spike.”
I start walking through the town noticing all the colorful ponies walking around but even more than that I notice all the guards tucked away in the corners of the town trying to look inconspicuous they’re all talking amongst themselves I also noticed all the flying ponies carrying firefighting equipment heading towards my crash site.
Did I really do that much damage or are they just looking for some excitement? I was still lost in my thoughts when I walked into the bakery and was ambushed for a second time by Pinkie pie but this time there were a lot more ponies there and they all had party hats and were shouting welcome. I smiled and tried to not get tackled by pinkie pie again, she’s surprisingly fast and managed to pin me again.
“Were you surprised? Oh I can’t wait to introduce you to everyone, you already know Spike, Twilight, Rainbow dash and Fluttershy, I think the only person you haven’t met is Applejack! I’ll be right back!”
Pinkie pie dashes off while I try to find something to eat that won’t give me diabetes with one bite, the place is even bigger than Twilights place and it’s stacked to the rafters with all sorts of cakes, candies and any other kind of sweet I could imagine, but all I really wanted was to find Fluttershy so I could learn how to use my new wings, I started wandering around the bakery while greeting every pony that came up to me. Finally I found Fluttershy trying to sneak outside.
“Hey Fluttershy I’m glad I found you I was wondering if we could talk.”
“Oh uh sure, about what?”
“Well after Spike took my bandages off I realized I had wings!”
I turn to my side to show her my wings tucked into my side.
“Oh I didn’t know you had wings! I’d be more than happy to show you how to fly, if you want.”
“I’d really appreciate it, when do you think we could start?”
“Um well I have to take care of all the animals without homes now and I also have to feed all my pets, I guess you could come over in an hour if you don’t mind of course.”
“No no an hour sounds good I’d like to get my bearings and get used to walking around on 4 legs. I’ll see you then.”
“Okay my house is right up that road it’s the one with all the pet houses.”
She motions to a house on a hill on the outskirts of town.
“Okay I’ll meet you there in an hour.”
She nods then runs off, I start wandering the rest of the town trying to find something to do while watching all the flying ponies and unicorns, all of a sudden a grey pony drops a bucket of water on me, then the bucket, and then herself.
“Oops sorry!”
“It’s okay, I’ve been through worse.”
The grey pony looked worried but then started smiling again and picked up the bucket that she accidentally dropped on my head.
“I have to go sorry!”
She then flew off almost hitting several other flying ponies’ while yelling apologies; I get the feeling she does this quite often. it had almost been an hour so I decided to head over to Fluttershy’s house, once I got there I saw every animal I had ever heard of and a few I’d only see in my wildest imagination’s imagination. I walked up to Fluttershy while she was putting out the feed for several of the smaller animals.
