//------------------------------// // meeting the locals // Story: New dragoon in town // by BlazingDragoonLord //------------------------------// Chapter:2 Disclaimer: I do not own LOD or MLP but if I did own LOD I would of made a second one any way to the story. I woke up to someone saying something I didn't understand at first but soon I heard "um hello are you ok?" asked a female voice, I started sitting up and looking to my right where the voice was coming from. What I saw almost made me freak out, there stood a purple pony with a purple mane with a pink streak in it, she had a horn also which meant she was a unicorn and she had what looked like a tattoo of stars on her flank, as I looked at her I saw she was looking at me with curiosity in her eyes. Finally after a minute or two I said "holy shit its a talking pony" she looked at me rather offended until I said "uh I mean hi, my name is Drackus Feld its nice to meet you Mrs..." I didn't know what her name was so I decided to let her tell me herself, "its twilight sparkle it is very nice to meet you drackus, although I am quit curious about you, what exactly are you" she said I looked down to see that I still had my armor and sword but I also notice something else. My hands now were claws with movable fingers, my feet where also claw like, as I looked around I saw that I also had a long tail with two spikes on the end and a set of black dragon wings, as I am looking I notice that I have a violet hue to my scales with red streaks I look to my chest and see the violet dragon spirit still in my armor. Once I finish examining myself I say "well i was a human but now i am a half dragon apparently" her eyes lit up in excitement as she says "oh my gosh your one the rarest species known in equestria that is said to be the result of mating between the ancient humans and dragons, and what do you mean you were a human" she exclaimed with curiosity. After she calmed down we talked while we walked, apparently the princess told her to look for somepony on the out skirts of ponyville (which instantly told me that she was the one i was looking for) and to bring them to the library to stay until better accommodations were made. As we enter ponyville I am met with stares both curious and frightened while walking the streets, then out of nowhere im slammed into by a pink blur, as I sit up I notice that its another pony, only this one was almost completely pink, but what really got me was the energy that said pony had, "himynamespinkypieiveneverseenyouherebeforeareyounew?ifyournewthatmeansyoujusgothereandyouhaven'tmadeanyfriendswhichalsomeansthat(GASP)Ineedtogiveyouaparty" after that she disappears leaving me thinking 'what the fuck just happened' I look over at twilight with a curious look in my eyes, she just smiles and says "don't ask" I just nod and leave it at that. On our way to the library again the fates apparently have a sense of humor for I am once again rammed into, this time however its a light blue blur that slams me hard into the ground knocking the air out of me, getting up I see a cyan Pegasus apologizing all over her self saying she didn't see me and that she was going too fast. I simply put a claw up to her mouth silencing her and said "hey its ok its happened to me quite a few times, plus ive taken worse hits than that by a long shot" chuckling as I helped her up off the ground "anyway my name is rainbow dash fastest flier in all of equestria" she said as she put her hoof out to shake "mine is drackus its a pleasure and I might have to race you to see about that" I said earning a competitive smirk from the rainbow maned Pegasus "oh you are so on I cant wait to kick your flank in a race" she said, as she flew off I looked to twilight and asked "are they all friends of yours?" giving her a look that said /im tired of being ran into/ "yes they are" said twilight with a giggle. We finally get to the library which was a giant tree and i looked around seeing a lot of books but not nearly as many as the royal library at indels castle, as im looking I see a small lizard carrying scrolls and quills "um twilight is that a lizard?" I simply asked. big mistake "hey im not a lizard im a dragon, why does everyone think im a lizard" yelled the dragon dropping the scrolls and quills to look for the one who called him a lizard, "that's right hes a dragon and my number one assistant" said twilight with pride in her voice. I stood there a little stunned until I said "well what do you know a talking dragon never seen one of those before" of course that's when I should have kept my mouth shut because the next twenty minutes was nothing but a slew of questions from both the dragon and twilight. when they finally shut up and let me talk a bright light filled the room, all I could think was 'what the fuck is happening now' when the light disappeared and i was able to clear my vision I saw the same pony that saved me and brought me here. "princess celestia why may I ask are you here?" said twilight while she and spike bowed, I bowed too thinking 'holy shit shes a princess' while I said "its an honor to see you again, although you never said you were royalty" getting a nod from her and wide eyes from twilight "the honor is all mine noble warrior and I see you have adapted to your new form quite well" she said in a very regal voice, "i have to admit it was a little difficult at first but the altered appearance of my dragoon form is quite nice" I said but this made her giggle and say "that is your real self, your dragoon form will also be altered substantially". Now I have always been a pretty mellow guy but this is starting to freak me out beyond all recognition "your obviously royalty but I would really like an explanation as to why im no longer a human and why you know of the dragoons" I tried to say with as much calm as I could muster which admittedly wasn't much. Celestia looked at me with a stern yet comforting look and said "i would love to tell you but I am pressed for time at the moment, but I do apologize for not being able to send you back to your world, I will talk to you again soon so please take as much time as you can to adjust to the circumstances" with that she disappeared and left me with twilight. I look at her and say "well I guess we get to talk about each other for a while" we sat down and I noticed that she was very curious, so I did my best to answer all her questions. The Q&A session lasted until midnight before she said she was tired. I told her I would sleep on the couch as she headed off to bed, as I lay down I think 'man I need to get some answers, im really fucking confused' before I drifted off to sleep.
