Whelp these days feel boring I think it's just June 16th? I lost track of time when I fell into that sleep again. Having a feeling I'm eating to much or over working but i'm very, very unsure in the mater. But today I am going to be in my journal. Anyway what happen today is that Lyra has become more gentle and is explaining how magic works to me. Now I am not going to say I know anything about magic. In fact I know nothing about it. But the highlights of what she told me and the Questions I gave her. I basically went. " So magic is like the force." She gave me a very strange look after I said that. She doesn't understand the fundamentals of wonderful movies. Of course I don't blame her she is new to this world. She found these board games. I am not one that enjoys board games. I tried to tell her kindly that I didn’t wish to play them. But again I didn't wish to hurt her feelings. Seeing her sad makes me feel guilty and I don't like feeling guilty.

We played a few board games. Since she wanted to just enjoy some calm time. Then we went into town keeping the dogs in the car. Since she told me how they acted with her. We both went through some interesting places...well if you call Sam's club interesting. Explaining to her what a computer does. It basically went as followed. " Basically this is called a PC it could be used for work. Even school but a lot of folks used them for games." Showing her the game's. She looked at a few of them. She saw the rating.

" Russell why does this show on the back that some guy is exploding with guts and gore everywhere?"

She simply asked. For me, I didn't wish to tell her but I kind of had to. The human race is pretty desensitized with all the games we play. It’s a sad feeling but yeah. The fact that many humans are so desensitized it's hard for them to be bothered

" Well you see Lyra some people love playing games like this."

She just gave me a very strange look. I could tell she wasn't amused by that. " Russell this is bad for you and your kids as well. No pony should be playing this. It makes no sense there is no story and all there is blood guts and drinking?" Lyra just stared at the game and snorted in anger. I never thought she would do this. She lifted the games into her magic. She forced magic in them than suddenly they all exploded into dust. I just stared at her laughing nervously. " Oh good job Lyra you going to do that to the rest of the million of the same game?" Lyra's eyes really went wide that time. She got very angry again.

" No this is not right!" She did yell at me. She was so angry I don’t understand her anger. But maybe if I knew what her species where like. Maybe I would learn why. But she doesn't really seem to want to me. She just got very angry at the fact that these games even existed. I watched her as her eyes grew very upset. They normally are so gentle. I have never seen such anger when she poke.

" Lyra this is how my world sadly is. Some folks want to play bloody games. Some folks want to play story games. Some just want to play games that would turn them on." Of course saying that angered her even more. I'm surprised I even remember everything she said to write it here. Of course my old life I wouldn't remember much of anything. But this is what she said.

" Turn on?!" She yelled even louder. That it echoed through the store. " Sex is a wonderful thing to have with your lover. Are you telling me there are people here who have sex with every pony?" I gave a simple nod. Her cheeks grew red with anger. She stomped her hooves. " That is gross that is awful. I don't see the point of those games. What about those movies you told me about. Do they have sex in them all willy nilly and stuff like that Russell?" She asked in a pretty angry voice. All i had to do was nod. Her horn glowed with so much anger a spell explosion caused every game movie around us to explode. All i did was stand there watching her have a tantrum a very nasty one mind you.

" Lyra...hon.." Placing my clawed like hand on her shoulder. " It's how this world is. It would have taken years to get people to change their minds. It's not that simple. It really ain't. You need to understand hon." In fact she would be pretty upset that this conversation between us is even in the journal. But she will have to deal with it. But it didn't get heated like our talks have. With me feeling extremely guilty that I got her to cry. But this time I had to calm her down.

" Now Lyra please. You don't need to be upset at people who will never show up ever again maybe. But again remember this not your world my friend." I simply stated. Again she was very angry but she calmed. But she did bring up something I am surprised she did. " Have you ever had sex?" She asked that out of the blue. My scales burned bright red. With my scales being black, of course it was easy for her to see. How can dragons blush?! This is not fair really. But I stated the truth. " Yes in fact. my girlfriend was wild enough to want to do it six times in one day. She was a bit of a wild gal." I said with a simple smirk. Lyra just stared at me. All she did was just stare. It started to feel awkward and weird that those eyes stared at me like she was my mother.

" Did you do it out of love Russell?" She simply asked. I smiled softly. " For me it was love yes. But for her it was more of the next score. That's how she was with me. She loved me but she wanted to be married as well. But I wasn't ready and I don't feel I was good enough for her. She was an amazing women. But I doubt i would have been good enough for her in the long run." Sadly this is how I really felt with her. I wish i didn't go into my personal life with Lyra. But there are times that things must come out to feel better about moving on. Sometimes moving on is a time we need to do.

" Love in this world Lyra is a bit different then i am sure your used to. Some don't want to make long term plans. So some just want a simple easy.. Forgive what I am going to say fuck." Lyra's eyes went wide at my wording. She grew angry again at that. " Oh alright alright. I mean..simple coupling of the sexes better?" Lyra nodded with a gentle smile again. Then Lyra asked something I never thought she would. " If you ever found another dragon, a male of course, would you make little ones?" She asked. My eyes just grew in surprise at this. There is that feeling again of warmth between my legs. I didn't know what to feel. But the idea of a male pleasing me was odd to my instincts I could feel the heat building there. Then of course when is saw. Lyra's bright red cheeks because of the smell i finally tossed those thoughts into the back of my head. I smashed them with a hammer and locked the very door.

" Never..." I said with a growl of lustful want in my voice. " Talk about that ....again...please." She laughed at my expense. It wasn't funny in my eyes. It's hard to write this because I am having that feeling again damn you Lyra.

" Ha ha I smell you!!" I heard from the office. Growling setting down the journal.

" It's all your fault, so shut up!!" Lyra brought her head out of the door sticking her tongue out at me. Growling angrily to myself. I continued to write. She really wished to know about our world. She noticed all the material wealth that was dishes and many other items in the store. This got her to the same amount of anger. We have been in the store for a good part of the 16th because she wish to know.. All about humans. I don't know why but she wished to understand them. So I oddly showed her the most interesting treasure of all money. “You see Lyra I am sure you have money that allows you buy goods and services.” Lyra gave a nod. “Well for here it’s the same. But we can also buy these.” I lifted up a box of condoms.

" What are those you just lifted up?" I tossed them to her while she caught them in her magic and read the label. Her cheeks turned so red that I couldn't see her normal color in her face anymore. " But...this is even worse!!" She yelled again. “No,” I simply stated, " This is how men here keep females from getting pregnant or pills." The mare grew so angry she took the box with her magic and ripped it apart. This creature is an alien from another world. Of course I expected her to act like this. She did get heated again with her words. " Sex in my world is not like this. It's a love that the male and female.. or female and female share." Blinking it seems their world is farther ahead then even ours.

I simply said to her. " Would you believe,” I calmly said. “That same sex lovers are hated in this world? Well there are some that are fighting for their rights. But they are still pretty hated." Lyra had a look of horror on her face. She didn't again understand the way of life here. Some folks sadly had agenda that they wished to put through. Even if it was religiously motivated.

" Allow me to explain Lyra." I calmly stated. " There are some folks who have an agenda. It threatens that agenda. To the point some will even kill to keep that agenda from being threatened. I don't wish to go deep into the politics of the world." Lyra blinked.

" I wish to learn more about this world Malla, so please tell me."

I didn't wish to go into how politics got in this world. Politics are a double edged sword when it comes to it. It's a bit of a way for most people to express how they feel and their agendas. It's not that simple really I would say. But while I brought this up the conversation went pretty out there. So a note here,I wrote the entire conversation about politics talk I had with Lyra in another Journal. When I finally get to my new home. It will be placed in a spot where others can read it for who ever reads this of course. But the conversation will start again at the end of this conversation.

" But there are other things my friend. That are even worse. There are some in the world that wish to control what you do. It's sadly how the government is. I am not sure how it works Maybe you could explain it to me? I wish to understand it but I am really not sure.”

She oddly smiled to me and while she hasn't told me were she is from. But she did tell me about her life. But what's interesting it was the morning like close to three in the morning on the 17th.

" We have the Princesses. The Princess of the Sun, who controls the sun. She is also an amazing creature that is so kind and gentle. Then we have her younger sister. The Princess of the night. She controls the moon and also goes into ponies of dreams. She mostly goes into the dreams to help ponies with their issues. But also to teach them.. Then we have the Princess of Love. A wonderful mare that wishes to spread happiness to all in our land. Then there is the Princess of friendship"

Then when she said that I started laughing. I wish I didn't laugh it was odd to laugh with that female voice coming from me. Then i oddly said. " Wait.. the princess of Friendship your kidding me right?" Laugh " That sounds so freaking girly that I'm amazed that even exist. Oh how rich how rich..Your pulling my leg are you?" Lyra then turned the tables on me. " Said the female dragon that was day dreaming of having sex with a male awhile ago." My face turned so bright red again. Get those thoughts back into my head back into the door of my head. Come on get in there with a hammer!! " Now that is unfair..." I stated. Then she smirked turning the tables on me again. " Awww but Malla i am just a cute little unicorn. That wishes to see you pleased." She said in a sultry voice that made me go deep red in the face again.. To the point my crest spread wide open it getting red to.

Yes, she went there with me. I don't understand how she did that to me. But i finally relaxed myself and realized I was being a bit rude there. I'm a dragoness I should be respectful to my own sex. So did the next best thing. I was respectful. " Alright I understand I was a bit rude there. I need to learn to act like more respectful. "Now what does this Princess of friendship do exactly?" I simply asked with a little more respect in my voice. Lyra had that gentle smile on her face. She didn't even seem to be tired. Of course I introduced her to soda not long ago. So it seems to be keeping her awake "Hmm well she tries to spread friendship around." She drank it again. " Is this a type of Soda Russell? It's a bit strange."

I gave her a nod. " It's called Pepsi and it's known to keep folks awake. Not to mention it's already kind of you know, the next day since we talked so much. So now it's the 17th of June." She didn't want to sleep of course she wished to know more of this world. So we walked outside. The dogs stayed away from me of course. But we were walking around the town. Ignoring the cats and bears. that didn't really want to get close because i was there. We walked to a hot dog shop and the night was still kind of going but the walk got to the point the sun came up. Again here the conversation went into politics. Again to those who ever read the other journal you will be able to understand the conversation that Lyra and I had. I can tell you though she got pretty upset. I don't understand her way of life. But her world sounds very laid back. Maybe that's a good thing. I enjoy her company. She makes me smile with how laid back she is.

But the conversation kind of went on. it started to become more of the same conversation that we had for awhile. It's gotten to the point that some things of the conversation went back to the old words. But then some things become different. " Now Lyra not all humans enjoy eating meat." We at at the tables of the hot dog store. " They ate food like this. It's something you tend to accept. But how this meat was made. They took pigs and chopped them up and made them into this." I said lifting up a rotted hot dog. The smell was awful but it was a way for me to explain. " Now sometimes it got to the point that rats did get inside the machines." The poor mare gave a eww look."

Again the conversation got pretty dull. in fact the walk back took about the full day. so the 18th was pretty interesting. I lead Lyra to a basketball hope and showed her how we played basketball. Because well she did wish to learn how the human race worked. She just wanted to understand since the world did end in a way. Basically I taught her the sports i knew about. I told her how Basketball works then soccer. Telling her the real name is football. But what's sad when I told her about Baseball she just looked at me like i was a nut. But we then talked about hockey. We did play some basketball i swear that unicorn magic is cheating. But I allowed her to win. It's hard to play it with being on all fours like I am. Really I enjoy her company. The fact she got me into writing this So lets see.

June 18th

These three days I remembered some places we could go to. The first was Frontier Auto Museum. I have never been there myself till now. She wanted to see everything before we went on our trip to Michigan. So this was the first place we went. The doors of this Museum were ten times stronger than the others I broke into back in Buffalo. So I used my sharp sharp claws to cut a large opening for the two of us. Setting the glass down so Lyra doesn't get hurt. " I haven't been here myself Lyra. But I have heard of it." I said. When we got inside we saw all the old signs of the car builders. One of the ones I have seen in years Pontiac it said.

" Malla what does that name mean?" Looking up to the signs that have the names of the creators. Giving a soft chuckle looking back to her with a smile.

" Lyra you have seen the name of the car I am driving right?" She gave a nod smirking. " That is the names of the folks who make them. Now Pontiac only made cars for a group of people. But they used to make them for the crowd as well. But all the names here are of the people that created them." Lyra looked back at it blinking a moment. But going through the museum we saw many old cars. Parts of cars even some old signs. Most of it was mostly bolted down so i couldn't take any of it.

But seeing the old gas tanks that we used to get gas from what impressive sight. Lyra loved the look of the old cars. I smirked at her she was acting like a child in a candy store. All the cars and shine in them impressed her so much. Of course she never seen anything like this before.,

" Malla... This is amazing. Can these be used?" Sighing softly shrugging

" Oh silly me." She said blushing.

" Lyra these cars are so old. They would have to be refilled and then tested. But without people with the skills able to do that. It would be hard to do it anyway. These cars prouply have been driven in years." Looking at one of the old Studebaker's. Looking at the old T-birds and old mustangs. Wishing I had a camera so i could remember that I was here. Looking over at the gift shop. Lyra stayed back looking at the cars. I could see the smile on her face still. She looked so amazed. When I finally went into the gift shop leaving her alone. That was my first mistake. But I found a sign called Auto Museum. Taking it down to carry it back to the car. But i heard something turn on it sounded like a bunch of cars. I had a bad feeling about this. A really bad feeling about this. Going into the room that had the cars blinking seeing that she started one of them with Magic...But how?

" Look Malla i got it going." Then it started to smoke. Quickly I grabbed Lyra running out quickly out of the room but it just turned off blinking looking back into the room. " Malla!! It had no gas in it..." She gave me an angry look. " Fine you're a big party pooper. " She sticks her tongue out at me. Sighing softly smiling.

" Sorry Lyra I didn't mean to think it would blow up." Lyra laughed softly.

" Its okay Malla. I am sure there are more places you wish to show." Sighing softly I let her go. " Besides I was testing something. i doubt it's wise to use it when the car has fuel in it. It's also a spell that is not wise to use on the car you're using. It was more of a test of course."

We left the Auto Museum it was still June- 18th. But of course Lyra was pretty tired after that spell. So we went back fed the dogs and let them wander. Lyra went back into the office to rest. The sign I got I place it was tape on the back rear window. I went to go rest myself to be ready to take Lyra to another part of the city.

June 19th

June 19th started off pretty odd enough. Lyra was showing me some spells of hers. One of the spells she used caused some of the power in the city hall turned on. Then the bulbs exploded, causing the glass to fly everywhere.

" Lyra... I am going to ask you never do that again." I calmly said. She looked at all the glass that she started removing with her magic looking back up to me with those motherly eyes. When she stares at me like that. For some reason I melt and a soft purr forms deep in me.

" I promise I won't do that again Malla." She said having a kind gentle smile on her face. So again she didn't wish to do this spell trying to get the power back on. It would take something without magic. Now there was another place I wanted to take her. Another Museum I found on the GPS. It's called Campbell Rock Pile museum. It wasn't very far from the Auto Museum. When the two of us made it there. Looking closely at the Museum. It was an old Museum that held many weapons and old wagons. So a collector of sorts in a way. But not a big one. Looking at the very old sign it was pretty old looking. This place looks like it won't survive without someone to keep it up to date. When we went inside the first thing we saw were cowboy spurs. There was even an old photo of a man on a horse.

" Um Malla what are those things meant for?" Looking at the spurs and the reins.

" Well those spurs are used to stab into the sides of the horse to get them to run faster. The reins are used." Lyra blushed deeply.

" Um we do have clothing like that back at home Malla. Same with the saddle just the spurs are different to me." Blinking a moment to myself.

" Why would a race of horses have stuff like that?" Lyra looked back up to me with bright red cheeks. Then it hit me..My eyes went wide. Face Clawing hard what is this race a bunch of horny animals? Oh wait their ponies of course most of them are horny and they have horns. Shaking my head to remove that from my mind. I moved us on from there to the guns.

" Now Lyra these are weapons that humans created to protect themselves. Back in the day they were also used for many wars to. These old weapons are beauties yes. Oh and Lyra see that very old cash register?" Nodding. " I wish to take it. I doubt it will last long without someone to take care of it. So lift it with your magic I will place it inside one of the cases in the car to protect it." Lyra looked at the old machine she nodded lifting it up in her magic. It was very well kept. But I will keep it even more protected when I get to my new home.

Lyra held it in her magic. As the two of us went along looking through the rest of the museum. I told her about how a lot of this got here. it was pretty hard for most of the people but they did what they could.. But the last few things we saw we took one more thing. It looked like an old vac. Then we went into the room of fossils skulls of many different creatures that lived around this area. But after awhile again Lyra was getting tired using her magic like she was made her tired. So I would let her rest. We went back and placed both of the items in the cases on top of the car. Then we went to rest for the rest of the night. Allowing the dogs to play.

June 20th

It got pretty calm on the 20th all we did was rest really so not much to write here. Well we didn't just rest we also played cards. it got pretty funny when i was teaching her how the play poker. So i gave her the rules it was interesting to see her try this. But what happen was she didn't understand the lingo. So we played some of the board games she found. These were odd board games One of them was a questions game she didn't understand that either.

But we found a game more my speed a board game. Now this game was about history. So I was able to teach her some parts of our history. Like when it landed on the civil war. I started to explain to her what happen.

" Alright Lyra, the Civil war was what you call it mostly. It was a war between the states. Brother and brother fought each other over political reasons. Mostly the freedom to own slaves. I am sure you don't have that issue your home. But Maybe you do." I went on to explain more but after awhile Lyra grew board and went to go get some sleep. Left me to just relax in the sun.

00000000

Then June 21st to 25th were pretty calm but we went around again to make sure we got everything we needed. We went through some stores to find more MREs but i didn't find any really. But it's gotten to the point that we proudly seen most of the town. But it's not what we know anymore. I want to leave but she wants to stay. UGH i am getting tired of writing in this journal but I feel I need to. The last day the 25th i was out on my own allowing Lyra to rest since. We have done so much the past few days. But on this day we didn't talk we just walked around the town. It made us get used to each other's company. Because we were going to be in the car together for awhile. But it's going to be hard to get used to. Since the idea of being with her for many days did get on my nerves.

But that is just my opinion of course. She is a great friend. But all the questions she has been asking me got odd after our walk. She asked many things her first question. " So tell me Russell what did you enjoy about the world the games? The games that you showed me that I destroyed." She said with a smirk. Sighing at this question I felt it's getting crazy that she keeps bringing that up. " Well you have to understand Lyra. Most of the things that happen in games are very good stories. Like Kingdom hearts had a story that was about dreams and how things changed for most in the heart. The heart's of kingdom hearts always brought forth a dream to some. But yes kingdom hearts was mostly about how friendship was and love. But I'm surprised you care Lyra.."

Of course I was surprised she care. But she wanted to learn and learning is how she did. Even if she pissed me off most of the time. " So basically it's a silly childish story and it would work better in a book." I blinked my eyes filling with anger. But then I realized she was looking at it through her point of view. So yes. " But yes I do agree some things are better as a book" i found it strange that she wanted to ready the book of it. But that's normal of course. Its something I am not used to seeing myself, good books. But she brought up something else.

" So what kind of books do they have in this world Russell?" Sighing a bit. Looking away not sure what to think right now. But the idea of trying to think about it would work. But i am very very unsure. But i spoke of the books.

" Well there are many books that are really good to read.. The hobbit based in the lord of the ring series is just as good. Now this story."

This took awhile to explain to her. But I remember much of what I said to her. " The hobbit is about a little creature that lives in a hole in the ground. He wasn't human but a half ling. He did want to go on adventures but he mostly wished to just stay at his home and relax smoking. Then a nice old man came to speak to him. Asking him if he is Bilbo Baggins. For the man that wished to know is named Gandalf the Grey. A wizard of powerful magic. Bilbo of course wanted nothing to do with him. He was more of ‘I wish to be alone’ type of creature. But that is normal in this story. These creatures wished to be alone, it's how that world worked."

Setting down the Journal a bit stroking my claws. The wrist felt in pain since I have been writing so much. But feeling that I need to get this down. Lifting the pen and the journal again. " Now late that night. Now I am skipping some things of the story. Because well some parts of the story really aren't needed. Hmm ah yes creatures known as Dwarfs. Found their way. Again i will be skipping some things like the names. Now one of the dwarfs is named Thorin. But they wished to have a burglar. They needed him for the treasure that Smaug guarded from them. it was their former treasure but of course at first he didn't wish to help. But the next day he did come to them to help them. Now maybe I can find you a good book store. I can give it to you to read. Here let's go find one." Walking around town again we found a bookstore.Now I never knew there was bookstore in this town. Now I need to find her some books that will keep her calm on this trip. Star trek, Star wars, Lord of the rings, and Dragon lance. I feel those books will keep her mind calm. I feel this might help her get through the boring days. But she wanted to stay in here and keep looking at the stores.

" Um Russell what is this book?" She lifted up 50 shades of grey. Looking away from it, I smirked.

" Take a look into it." Calmly stated. Opening the book she looked into it her cheeks turned bright red. Dropping the book out of her magic. Looking up to me with a angry look.

" You knew what that was all along didn't you?" She asked with a tinge of anger. Laughing loudly, I nodded.

She got pretty upset at me again and we were about to have another sex argument. Because well with how loose humans are about sex. It kind of made her a bit upset. I couldn't stop her of course. " Why is the human raise so loose on mating? Why must they be. So i don't know like it's something you do everyday with a new partner? i don't understand this logic Russell I really don't." She stated.

" Well Lyra the human race has been through many things. War, Slavery, and so on.Sex in the human race is not really taboo. Some have many partners and how some sexual intercourse is that we pay for it. Now sex to me is well normal. I could care less if I have been with someone. I have many times but it was just normal. But sex here is like a joy to some. But to some it's a way to boast about their conquest. That's how some see it. Even with the hookers."

The unicorn blinked at the word hooker. " Um..." I cut her off. " Hooker is a gal that you pay money to have sex with." Now that pissed off Lyra so much to the point that the book selves started to shake. Waiting for the entire isle of books to burn up from her anger. But at this moment she calmed down sighing.

" Your world is becoming more strange to me Malla." I laughed at that fact. My world is weird? Well maybe it is.

" Come let's find star wars and then get back to relax some." The walk back took awhile but of course of course.

Setting down the journal stroking my wrist. " Damn it!!. Hey Lyra I am going to go out and lay in the sun."

" Yeah good for you let me get back to reading." Blinking looking into the office Lyra looked to be reading the hobbit. She had a pile of many books. Star wars, some star trek, even the lord of the rings. Smirking to myself ‘That will keep her out of my scales for awhile.’ Going to let the dogs roam around and feed them. Slowly heading outside opening the door to let the dogs out setting down some water and food for them. Looking to the sun to lay in it and calmly rest. It felt so peaceful but i didn't know how long it would last. At this moment I didn't care it was calm it was I felt something pulling on my nose. opening my eyes I looked into the eyes of a little unicorn foal. Blinking quickly lifting my head up looking at the foal a moment while the little one giggled.

" Um Lyra" I yelled " Did you get knocked up and had a foal without me knowing?" I could hear her walking out of the city hall.

" Oh come on Russell it takes a stallion and 11 months and...Hey there's a foal there." Turning my head to her. Giving her the look of really?

" Then if this is not your foal who does she belong to?" While I kept an eye on the foal i didn't know what to think. But I was hoping someone would well at least tell me what is up with this a sudden unicorn foal showing up like this. Lyra came over, looking down at the little one.

"Where did you come from and why are you biting my nose?" As the foal chomps back down on my snout.

" Who does she belong to?" I calmly asked. Lyra gave me a shrug and we both heard a voice.

" Starla!!!" The voice sounded out. Lyra and I looked up to see who said it.
