From the Skies above
Chapter 5
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe blinding light from the sun was shining in my face from the window. Meaning it was probably time to get up and face the reality of this nightmare i had gotten myself in. I look over at the tiny couch my captors were sleeping on to find it empty and take the opportunity to escape and find the field i supposedly fell out of the sky onto a small field.
I silently creep over the wood floor and make my way towards the front door and gently pull it open. As soon as i smelled the fresh air i burst through the front door and made a dead sprint for the woods. I ran through the yard and slow down once i felt there was a safe distance from sight.
Through the thick bush and hedgerows i found the barn in a clearing that i was held up in yesterday. I remember the orange one had said they found me towards the south and judging by the sun i still had a long way to go but i had to find that crash site. While i was walking i found a small creek and detoured to water myself. Filling my self up and hiking through the brush just yards away i found the clearing with the Earth scorched and debris everywhere.
I see the capsule and run towards it in a hurry almost puking from the water churning in my stomach. I jump through the hatch and enter the confined space. It was the same disorganized mess i left behind. Every thing glass was shattered and useless. I went through the crates and found lots of medical supplies along with food. i fill a large pack and began walking out of the trashed hulk of metal.
Walking out I knock over a small pack and curious i kneel down and pick it up and look at it closely and read my name written in tiny letters. I figured i would take it along and look at the contents later. I get back up and walk back towards the hatch and jump out taking every precaution to look around at the surrounding forest. It was all clear when i turn around to head for the bushy treeline.
I drop everything when i see the two from last night only feet away from me. Startled and completely caught off guard i froze in place and wished i could just turn invisible. Fluttershy with concern oozing from her voice as she broke the standoff. ' Thank goodness we found you. We figured you might come back here. Are you okay?' Rarity joins in with the same concern 'You really should have told us where you were going that wasnt very polite of you.'
I stand firm in the solidarity of my mind. I was starting to get pissed off about these creatures constantly in my business. But i held my tongue and muttered in a low voice 'Sorry i didnt mean to cause you two to panic. Your right i should have said something.
They both beamed huge smiles and almost in unision said. ' Its ok.' Shuffling my feet and looking at the ground i waited for one of them to break the ice again. It came when Rarity asked what was the bags i was carrying were for. I responded by opening the large pack so they could see the gauze and the kits with red crosses painted on them and the cans of food. They asked what i would need that for.
Trying my best to lie my way out i remember the cuts on my arm and told them i needed to cover them. They seemed satisfied with my response and asked if i was hungry. I nod my head and pick my bags up. They lead the way back chatting along while i was starting to struggle with all my baggage.
If they both werent only 3 feet tall i would have jumped on there backs and just rode them back but i guess i could use the exercise. It was about noon when we reached the house of Fluttershy's. i follow them through the small wooden doorway bumping my head in the process.
I Shake it off and make my way to the dining room. They were already eating at the same places they were seated last night. I ask Fluttershy how she had such a nice house. I got her to crack a smile and said with pride. 'The town all pitched in to help me build it when i moved to Ponyville .
I ask where she originally came from. She was from a city in the sky known as Cloudsdale. When i ask how that can be she explains that the pegasi can walk on clouds and live in the sky. When i ask why she left she didnt respond she just hid her face with her hair.
I felt bad that i upset after she had been so generous so i apologized and changed the subject. We talked for quiet awhile longer and i was beginning to learn more about these creatures. My father always told me that knowledge is power so i never passed up the opportunity to learn something new .
I excuse myself after filling myself on carrots lettuce and water to clean myself up. They both follow closely behind me outside like i was going to run off again. I walk through the living area and through the front door and walk out to the front lawn. Fluttershy was feeding her animals while Rarity was sunbathing on a lawn chair. Luckily for me there was a small creek that ran through her yard.
I kneel and stare at my reflection in the crystal clear water. Almost immediately i pull down the zipper of my suit and let it fall to the ground exposing my skin to the vibrant sunlight. The water looked so cool and clean. I jump in and sit down with water up to my belly button and using my hands washed my self spotless getting all the dirt and sweat off me .
Fluttershy spots me in the water and walks up to her friend and tells her ' Oh my Its body looks so fragile and hairless.' Rarity just stares puzzled and responds with ' What happened to all its fur.' Finishing up i get out and stand bare foot on the grass. I only had my shorts on which didnt cover me up almost serving as underwear and dried myself in the breeze .
The two approached me from the chairs looking up at me like they just met me again for the first time. They stand there with their eyes fixed on me for awhile. Feeling self conscience like being naked in public i ball up on the ground at eye level with them. When I ask them whats wrong Rarity steps inches away from me and asks gently ' Can i maybe just touch your skin?. I hold my arm out and she rubs her head on my shoulder and onto my back instead.
Her fur was incredibly soft it almost felt like the smoothest silk fabric. Fluttershy you have to see this its so smooth ive never felt anything like it. Fluttershy just rubs her front leg on my shoulder and gasps. Wont you freeze to death with out your fur?
I chuckled a little bit and placed my hand on her head. Rarity comes in to my view and still puzzled she asks. Your afraid of being naked arent you that little piece of clothing covers your genitalia. My face goes blood red and i just wanted to turn invisible.
I stay silent and grab the medical kit to clean my cuts. They stand feet away amazed how i could do tasks impossible for them with ease. First i grab the cleaning solution which basically was food grade alcohol meant to sanitize and kill boredom.
I grit my teeth as the solution seemed to burn like fire on the wounds running off my arm with a sickly red color as it began to bleed again. When the pain subsided i apply an ointment and wrap it up with gauze. The device on my arm was a constant pain and wouldnt allow me to cover it up completely but i did my best to stave off infection.
Satisfied with my work i stand back up and pulled my now clean suit from the creek and refit. While Fluttershy and Rarity were chatting on. When i walk up to them Fluttershy squeaks out. 'If you need to clean yourself up you can use the bathtub in my house. I smile and continue putting my things back. When Rarity suddenly pops out. Oh my Fluttershy i just remembered im meeting designers from Trottinham this afternoon. do you think i could just clean myself up here Deary.
Fluttershy smiles and nods and they walk back towards the house. Fluttershy looks back at me and motions me to follow.
