Carousel boutique)
I wake up to a loud scream.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa!!!!"
I assume it's Rarity yelling about some animal or something. I open my eyes to see the couch I lay on. I push my self up into a sitting position and attempt to communicate with Rarity.
" Rarity."
" What happened! My work. My room. My fabrics. This mess!" With each thing she said she pointed a hoof in the general area of the specific. " Golden Spark! What did you do?"
" Stop them from stealing your stuff."
" Who is them?"
" Are you gonna be alright?" I ask her this because, one I worry for her, two she's getting more 'frazzled' by the minuet.
"ANSWER THE QUESTION!"
" Ok then." I say calmly. May be this can help her vent or something. " 'Them' as in the two thieves that came in here and ransacked the place for valuables."
" I DON'T LIKE LIARS JON!"
"Ok, but I st-"
" I SAID I DON'T LIKE LIARS! JUST GET OUT!" not fighting against her in state I leave. I trot over to the front door but a problem arises.
" Um I can't open-" The door swung open and a force pushed me outside.
The door slams shut behind me and I look for a another place to lay. I look around to see that some ponies are setting shop at this time while others are getting something to eat. My stomach growls, and there's the problem. I need to find someone I know now. Maybe Twilight?
I get back to reality and get off Rarity's porch. I walk a dirt path with businesses around, that must mean i'm in the market area. Most stalls aren't open yet but one is. Applejack's stall. I trot over to the stall and converse.
" Hello there Applejack." I say as I get near her stall.
" Well howdy there Jon, uh shouldn't you be at Rarity's or sumthin?"
" She's mad right now. In her madness she kicked me out."
" Mad about what Jon? *sigh* What did you do?"
" Oh last night she was about to get robbed. Two ponies broke a window and trashed the place for valuables and for the sake of covering up their tracks." I say this in a nonchalant tone.
" Two ponies? Stealing? What they want to steal?"
" Gems apparently. They saw her bring in a whole mine cart of them, guess they wanted some."
" So your sayin that last night there were two burglars, and they trashed the place for bits. Your not tellin me something are you Jon?"
" Oh while i'm like this call me Golden Spark." She nods at that. "And of course I left something out the fight I had with them."
"WHAT! Why did you fight them? How reckless are you?"
" Reckless enough to tackle your princess and give her a nickname on my own accord." She face hooves at this. " And I fought them for a good reason."
"*sigh* What?"
" Well one, I was awake when they came in. Two, they were going to take her stuff. What was I supposed to do about it?"
" Well, you shouldn't fight two grow stallions!"
" Whatever. Can I eat your merchandise?" She answers by tossing a red apple. I caught it in my mouth. I quickly eat it so I can get back to the conversation. " Thanks, Trash can?" She points over to one not to far away. I trot over with the core in mouth and spit it in. I walk over to her again and she talks first.
" Well I know your not lying." I raise an eyebrow at this. she continues. " Do yah want me to talk to her about it?"
" Maybe, but no."
" Well why not? She's the who misunderstood.
" Exactly. Right now she's too frantic, I'm not to sure that she'll listen to anyone right now.
" Well ok then. What are you gonna do now partner?" Wow she just said that.
" Do you know where Twilight is?"
" Go down the street and turn right you remember what it looks like right?"
" Yeah the giant tree, thanks for the apple Applejack." I say this as I trot away.
I follow the directions she gave me messing up a few times, but in the end I am victorious! Nah, who cares. I find the libartree and knock on the front door. I hear Twilight say "Coming!" and she opens the front door. Apparently she didn't expect me.
" Oh, um, hi Jon come on ." She motions a hoof inside and I trot in.
" Good morning Twilight, and call me Golden Spark." Inside I look for a place to nap still tired.
" Shouldn't you be at school?"
" Probably, but i'm here to take a nap."
" Then why here and not Rarity's?"
" She's a little frantic right now."
" Frantic about what?"
" A giant mess she assumes I made."
" Did you?"
" No the thieves did."
" What! thieves?"
" I don't feel like talking about it again. Go find Applejack and ask her about it, she knows more."
" Oh, ok then, are you ok?"
" Yeah just fine it's normal to get beat up and almost killed so yeah i'm fine, can I take a nap now?"
" What! Killed? What happened?"
" I said I don't feel like talking about it. If you want to talk about it go gather your friends." She's about to trot away but I said something else. " After Rarity feels better."
" Fine, uh do you have that book you promised?"
" Yeah. No some problems arise when getting it, it's gonna be awhile before you get it, so that nap."
" Uhg there's a cushioned place by the window."
" Thanks. Anything else before I go take a nap?"
" Yes, this." She opens the door. I'm quite puzzled by this until she put me outside with her magic. " No napping in the library." She says that right before she closes the door.
Ok so that Twilight down. Who else can I go to? You know i'm gonna find a open field and sleep there or something. I trot away from Twilight's library and venture off. I walk back to the market area to find that now it's more busy then normal, from what I can tell most of the ponies are eating again. Does this mean it's lunch? Time flies too fast around here. I walk down the market way, but not without a few stares. Their probably wondering why i'm not in school, who cares? I trot up to a stall and ask him for directions.
" Hey mister!"
" Uh hey there little guy." Uhg." Whatcha need?"
" Directions."
" Oh. To where?"
" A park, or somewhere quiet."
" Ok then. Uh the nearest park is that way go all the way down to the end and turn left you can't miss it."
" Thanks mister!" I trot away.
" Shouldn't he be in school?" The shop keep whispers.
As i'm trotting down the said directions the guy gave me. A blockade appears! It seems to be just some mares talking about gossip or something. Their attached to a cart filled with trash, each to their own. It's a narrow ally way so I can't get through. Well time to get dirty.
I get on the ground and army crawl under the carts. Jesus the carts smell, well like garbage. This makes me go faster cause who wants to breath this? I make it through and I appear between the two mares.
" Oh my! What are you doing little one?" Uhg, she called me little. The one who said this is the mare to my right.
" Nothing, just trying to get through." I say back.
" Get through here?" She looks around and realizes what she and her friend means. " Oh my it seems where blocking the street." She and her friend start moving but not with out one going first.
I make it to the end of the street and turn left. The park seems like a normal park with out a play ground. A dirt path runs through the area with benches on the side. A lake is nearby, neat. A few trees are scattered around leaving shade in the more resting areas. I find a big tree and lay down. The tree seems to be far away from society and the dangerous forest, perfect. I lay down and close my eyes. Sleep comes faster the expected.

Dreamland)
Well time to get up, again. I get off the ground and look for Iris. I soon give up looking for Iris after bout ten seconds. I should just call her.
"IRIS! WHERE ARE YOU!?" She appears.
"RIGHT HERE!" I fall to the ground from her yelling, that scares me. She continues yelling." WHY ARE WE YELLING?"
" Oh, uh no reason just got real lazy to find you that's all." I get off the ground and crack some of my bones, feels good to do this in a human body. Can't do anything as a pony. "I'm bored." I tell her.
" What do you want to do?"
" Two player game?" I ask her.
"*sigh* Fine."
" Yes!" Fist pump of VICTORY! " Do you know what chess is?"
" No I do not. Let's play that then." I explain the rule and each piece to her quickly. She gets the general idea. " So the game is to take out the king?"
" Yeah basically. So how are we gonna make the board?"
" What's it look like?"
" I told you that already."
" Refresh me."
" It's a eight by eight square board with black and white colors alternating on each square, got it?"
" Yeah. How do you want it?"
" Want what?"
" The board."
" What do you mean?" This is freakin me out man.
" Well it's your head. You or I can make it however we want." Oh.
" Let's make it life size then."
" Ok." The area around both of us dims and transforms into a chess board.
" Let have neon light around here." Cause why not. It's just chess.
" Uh sure." A lime green outlines the outside of the board. And every line in between the board making it easier to see each square.
" Let's make each piece human looking but virtual and no blood."
"Gotcha." Each piece comes in one at a time looking like medieval times.
" And We should be on flying boards above flying across, with virtual holograms of the board so we can se what's happening."
" Right." A red and blue discus come flying down waiting to be boarded, Each come with a glass table covered in the front and a nice padded chair.
" Sweet, You want to add anything?" I ask her.
" I think you did enough for the both of us."
"Ok. Let's start this match!" I hop on the flying disk, and to the sky! " So what color do you want?"
" I'll choose.... White."
" Gotcha, you go first then." I fly over to the se with the warriors in black.
Since i'm the black side, should I change my knights into Batman? Nah. The game starts smoothly with Iris moving one of her pawns, I move a knight and she moves another pawn.
(Time skip)
Huh, I lost. Half expected about it, because I suck at chess. Really like the game but i'm really bad even against a computer on level one, I won once out of five times. True story. Iris seems ecstatic from her first win. She's all jumping around waving her hands in the air. I forgot to tell her that i'm bad at this now bowling is pretty much the same, even though i'm second best in my family. HAH! Take that society!
"So Iris, what now?"
" Hah! I won, you lose!" She's doing a victory dance, it's very good.
" Yeah, whatever. What now."
"Oh, I think you should wake up soon. It's been quite awhile."
" Oh yeah. Your right. Can you wake me up?"
" Uh yeah close your eyes and brace yourself." I close my eyes and tense my body preparing for the worst. A giant force hits me and I black out.

IRL)
I wake up under the tree I napped under. The time of day seems to be around four from the sun or maybe later I can't read the sun, it's not digital enough. I need to decide where to go next. Maybe Rarity is feeling better. Let's go find out.
I push my self up into a standing position and walk towards town. I see Rainbow Dash flying around looking for something. Wonder what she's looking for. I walk down from where I came, to now see that all the stalls are closed. That must mean it's dinner time. One stall has yet to leave probably looking to make some extra cash. You know what I need from him, directions.
I walk up to the stall owner and ask.
" Hey mister."
" Wuh. Oh, uh hey there fella whatcha need." A gun.
" Can you help me out, i'm lost." I say in a childish voice.
" Well sure. Where you need to go?"
" Carousel boutique."
" Why would you want to go there?"
"Just checking in on a friend."
" I see, well you go down this street take a right, go down that way for one block, turn left and do the same." Ok i'm pretty sure that's not the way. What is he up to?
" So I go down that way." I point my right hoof down the street and keep talking." Take a left for a block and then a right for another and i'll be at Carousel Boutique, right?"
" Eeyup." What a liar. I'm just gonna run away and around till I find the pointy building.
" Thanks mister." I run away before something happens.
I run down the street and follow the directions he gave me I get to the left and push my self up against a building to peek around the corner. What do ya know i'm right. Like always. Who's right, Jon's right. That's what! Anyway the directions the guy gave me led to a small group of thugs consisting of a pony, a Pegasus, and a griffin? Whad ya know?
I look around to find the boutique and Bingo! This means i'm still to far away but close enough to see the top if it. Ok if I pass by what would happen? A: They mug me. What would they mug me for? All I have is this golden-oh never mind. B: They ignore me completely and i'm home free. Or C: I find a new path completely.
You know, I do a lot of stupid things. Me thinks i'm gonna find another path. I back ay from the corner and make my way down town. More time has passed since the looking and her I am the Boutique. Finally. Things to do: Shower, Eat, talk(?) Sleep. thass it.
I walk up to the door and I knock.
* Knock, knock, knock*
It appears Rarity is having troubles because I hear crying and some other ponies comforting her. Someone inside talks back.
" Carousel Boutique is closed please come again." Should I speak up or just keep knocking? Maybe I can finally master my echolocation technique. I just decide to keep knocking.
* Knock, knock, knock*
" We said it's closed buddy." Third times he annoying one.
* Knock, knock, knock* I sit on my butt and wait. The door opens to reveal Applejack and Rainbow Dash somewhat pissed.
" We said It's closed so-" This is what she said before she saw me. " Where were you?" Said Rainbow.
" Hi Rainbow. Hi Applejack. " I say while waving my right hoof to them.
" Don't 'Hi Rainbow.' me. Answer the question!"
" I was napping."
" You were napping? How could you nap?"
" Bet you napped today until this happened."
" How'd you know that?" Her face: Shocked.
" Two things. You just told me and it's somewhat easy to tell from the way you act."
" Heh heh, He's gotcha there Rainbow." Applejack chuckles at this.
" So can I come inside or..." Both mares let me in while they go inside also. " So what's happening?"
" Well Rarity started crying and mumbling about you." Said Applejack.
" Ah so she realized the truth. Did you talk to her before hand or She just started sobbing like a madwoman."
" I was gonna talk to her about it, but when I came in she's being all dramatic and won't come out of her room."
"Anything else?"
" We sent out a small search party for you, thinking you might of gone back to the forest or something."
" Well the gesture is nice, thank you for that. I was thinking of going back into the forest." Both mares look at me with intense glares. " Later of course." They now have a un amused face. " So she's in her room huh." They both nod. " Can you take me to her?"
" Why should we let you go in there? Your the cause of it!" Rainbow says.
" Well if i'm the cause shouldn't I fix it then? Now come on let's go." I start walking forward and then a realization hit me. "Right after I know where to go." I turn back and walk up to the two mares. " So can you take me to her or something?"
" Sure let's go." Says Applejack.
" Fine." Says Rainbow Dash.
We go up stairs and then down a hallway.
" So can either one of you cook me something?"
" Didn't you have lunch?" Asks Applejack.
" Not really the only thing I had was hat apple you gave me." Rainbow looks at me with a shocked face.
" You ate nothing the whole day and now you think of food?" Say Rainbow.
" Well I think of food all the time it's just lots of things that you wouldn't want to hear."
" What is that supposed to mean?" She thinks she might know but she doesn't.
" Too may words for me to say cause i'm lazy and... That's it i'm lazy." I've been walking for awhile maybe this body is slow, maybe. " So are we there yet?"
" Actually yes we are." Says Applejack. We ended up in front of a door adorned with pictures and surrounded by three more mares.
" Hello there everybody." I say as I walk up to the door only to be stopped by a purple hoof. Uhg, obstacles. "What Twilight?"
" What are you doing?"
" Oh yeah good point, I don't know how to open doors. Could you open it for me please?"
" What do you mean silly? You just use your hoof like this?" Says Pinkie Pie. While opening a door and closing it multiple times. Not to Rarity's room of course.
" Yes." I say this out of my confusion and my way of communicating.
" Okie dokie loki!" She bounces away to another part of the house. Everyone just stares at me, but Twilight speaks up first.
" How... what?"
" I'll take that as a question and answer with a simple answer. You learn a lot of things in life. There, now can you open the door please?" The door opens and I prepare to step inside only to be tackled. " Who the buck tackled me!?" Whoever did this sent me tumbling away from the door and to the ground. I stand up to see spike the dragon and twilight holding him with her magic.
" YOU!" Spike yells at me.
" Yeah! What about me?" This is pissing me off. Gotta finish that quest.
" Stay away from her!"
" Well, excuse me from trying to fix this." I say walking forward until right in front of him." What are you gonna do about it. Fix it your self? Well, your not doing it I see. So i'm gonna fix the mistaken mess!"
" I don't even know who you are. So why should I let you near her."
" Damnit Twilight did you tell him who I am?"
" Hey don't talk to her like that!"
" Oh uh it might of slipped my mind." Says Twilight.
" Spike! it's me! Jon! You know that weird guy?"
" Your not Jon! Your a colt!"
" You know what? I'm tired of this. Someone open the door and Twilight step away with Spike." Twilight steps away with Spike in tow and Applejack opens the door." Thank you Applejack. Now Twilight put a noise cancelling spell or something in this room and trust me on this."
" Why should we trust you?" Says Twilight.
" Are you gonna do it? Times ticking!" She groups up with her friends and Spike just hovers there in her magical grasp giving me angry stares of doom. Ooo scary. Twilight and her other friends must have come on to a conclusion because she, and her friends broke apart. Time for the verdict.
" Fine." The door opens up and I finally go in. I turn around to see the door glow purple. That must be the spell or something.
I see the room and then I see Rarity on the bed. Face down and sobbing. She's in a robe and her mane is messed up. Oh look a cat. I fricken hate cats.
" Why *sob* are you here *sob* just go away." She hasn't faced me yet so I assume her friends must have come in here first trying to comfort her.
" Now why would I do that." Apparently she didn't hear me. Great. I'm gonna finish this up my style. " Rarity." She continues sobbing."AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
This startled her. She shot out of the bed to see me on the floor mindlessly yelling. How does it work? I don't know?
" Um Jon. Why are you here." Her tone is soft and filed with regret.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
" Jon, can't you see that i'm sad?"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
" JON! STOP YELLING RIGHT NOW!!!" Her shout is louder than mine.
" Ok i'll stop now." I say this in a childish tone.
" Jon why did you come back?" Her face shows sadness. Gotta do something about that.
" Well, to check on you of course." I feel like going simple is the best answer, or going random.
" Why would you check on me after what I done to you."
" What did you do to me?" I ask her.
" I yelled at you and-"
" So did the Diamond dogs. What's your point?"
" My point is that I yelled at you without seeing the whole situation."
" Now there's your answer."
"Jon i'm so sorry. Can you ever forgive me?"
" I don't know..." Her face saddens and her head dips." I could use a place to stay you know and maybe some meals and another shower." Her face seems shocked at this. " Of course I can forgive you."
" Why did you forgive me so easily?"
" Cause why not?"
" That's it?"
"Yeah."
" Oh. Ok then."
" So you feeling better?" Her face has now transformed into a soft smile.
" Yes much. Thank you Jon."
" I really need a meal and another shower though..." She looks at me questioningly. " Yeah kinda, um haven't eaten the whole day so can you help me with that?"I say this slowly while looking to the side, making me avoid eye contact.
" You haven't eaten the whole day? Well we have to fix that now. Don't we?" I look at her and smile.
" YES! Now where do we go?"
" To the kitchen, Jon, the kitchen."
" Wait stop for a minuet." She started walking towards the door but she stopped at my request. " You heard of the real situation, right?" She nods.
" I thank you for defending my home Jon."
" Don't worry about it you just have to pay me." She looks at me with a slight horror. " With a meal, a bath, and a place to sleep. That's it." Her face relives and she has a short chuckle
" Deal."
" Now let's go your fiends are worried."
" Yes." I walk up to the door with Rarity behind me. I stop at the door and she looks at me questioningly. " Rarity. I can't open doors." She has a small giggle and opens it wit her magic.
Upon the sight of the door being opened the picture shows five mares (+1 Dragon with angry glares). Spike is still in Twilight's magic and he is still throwing them glares at me. I move away just in time for the other five mares to hug Rarity (+1 Dragon). I on the other hand look around the area not wanting to look or interrupt the reunion of friends. I walk down the hallway to the couch I slept on before and hop on.
I should learn the lay out of the house better. I try to sleep but it eludes me. So I sit there on the couch waiting for someone to come in or something to happen. I must have been there for a long time before I heard a voice behind me.
" Jon?" turn around to see Rarity and her other fiends.( +1 angry dragon)
" Yeah?"
" I was going to cook something in the kitchen with my friends help. Would you like to come?" She asks.
" Sure." I hop off the couch and follow after them. " So what are you girls making?" Everyone stops. " You girls don't know what your making do you?"
" Yes we do!" Replies Twilight." Were making a balanced and nutritious diet." Right.
" Isn't that supposed be every meal?" I ask.
" Well yes but-"
" It's just a meal Twilight, i'm sure you know how to cook but i'm also sure that you probably never have cooked before."
" He's got you there Twilight." Says Spike.
" Hey! I read a book on how to cook. So it should be just fine."
" Experience is better then any book can have." I say.
" What is that supposed to mean?" Says Twilight. A few others want to know that to apparently.
" Like it means. Just because you learn it from a book first men you mastered this. You know what we'll talk about it later. I vote Fluttershy to cook dinner!" I say this as I raise a hoof in the air.
" Seconded!" Rainbow says next.
" U-um you really think so?" Says Fluttershy
" Yeah. Your cooking's good. Really good." I say.
" I don't know how to cook." Says Rainbow.
" Well if you think so." Says Fluttershy.
" I'll help you dear." Says Rarity.
"I'll make the desert!" Says Pinkie pie.
" I'll help out with pinkie on the deserts." Finishes Applejack.
" So does everyone know what there doing?" I ask them." Good, now lets start this!"
We all enter the kitchen d the girls do their thing. I g to he table and pull out chair with much trouble. I eventually get it out just enough to get on and see the table. Or so I though. I get on the chair with little struggle, and when I got up I yelled a victory yell. Everyone turned on me with eyes and flat stares.
" What?" I ask.
" Why did you just yell?" Ask Fluttershy.
" Well because I got on to the chair."
" Why didn't you just ask one of us?" Says Rarity. It's not that I don't trust them yet but I half trust them. And I don't like asking for help unless its a good friend on my side. It's better that way. Gotta be strategic when answering people. Take note others!
" It's just I don't like asking help from others that's all." Half truth half lie. Mostly truth. All of them nod except Applejack. She hesitate but accepts it.
I sit at the table thinking about stuff and talking to Iris.
" Hey Iris. You wanna talk?
" ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz.....
" Screw you sometimes, screw you."
With that not a option I thought about going to school. Are the CMC there? Do they know what happened to me? Hope not, gotta test and polish my social skills. Wonder what kind of bullies they have, verbal, or physical. Doesn't matter, cross that bridge wen the time comes. Wonder what vegetables their using. Wonder what's gonna happen. Am I old enough to own a house? If I can i'll ask someone to teach me taxes, wonder who's good with that? Dad always said 'go away i'm busy." wearing dem reading glasses.
Any of my currents thoughts were now broken by someone talking to me.
" Jon?" Says Twilight
"*sigh* Yeah?"
" Are you ok?" Asks Fluttershy. I look at the now full of food table and then to each pony who is now staring at me(+1 Dragon).
" Yeah! Totally. Nothing is wrong."
" Are you sure you were mighty spaced out there." Says Applejack.
"Yeah, i'm fine." I say this in a calm tone. Everyone looks at each other with worry. I take notice of this and keep talking.
" Don't worry about me, i'm fine and I can take care of myself. So don't worry." Most of there faces show that they dropped it some others still held on to it but dropped it for now, i'll probably have a conversation with them. Unless I avoid it like the plague. It's doable, done it before." Come on let's eat already the foods getting cold." With that we started or everyone else did and my food got taken away from Rarity.
" What did I say about manners?" She held the food in her grasp of magic.
" That I should use them to be polite and hold the door for others?" Taking backwards shot in the dark while pointing to the sky.
" That I feed you because you can't feed yourself." She's using the stare.(Not Fluttershy's, I repeat, NOT FLUTTERSHY'S) The stare is that one kind of stare that all the girls have, the one you feel guilty for. The war is losing fast.
" I can feed myself. You just won't let me."
" Because were a civilized family and we have manners."
" Aww you just called me family. I'm touched, but even in my family I have the least manners. So can I eat it now?"
" No." The stare is strong in this one.
" Fine i'll starve till tomorrow."
" Your bluffing."
" I'm not. I'll walk out to the couch and sleep." She's gotta be kinda close to cracking, right?
"Ok then. Go ahead. the doorway is that way." She points her hoof towards the door. The others watch the dinner drama.
" I... shall then leave." I hop off the chair I once sat on and make way to the doorway. I make it through the door and a bunch of OOos are heard. Well time to starve on the couch. It's just like home except there's no internet or electronics here. I make it to the couch and lay down thinking about what she said and what to do.
I should go get my bag, look through the stuff I have, and give the text book to Twilight. I found some golden coins lying in the ruins, gold seems valuable at home so what's it here? I guess i'll have Twilight inspect the stuff I have. Not the armor though it's mine, and it's gonna lead me into a lot of trouble. Next thing I know will probably be two pony trying to bribe it and then mug me cause I said no. Meh. So from what I could remember what's in my bag is a machete, a fire starter, school stuff, gems, and coins. I think that's all I have. I'm starving.
My future thoughts were interrupted by some hooves clopping on the ground. I turn over to see Twilight and Rarity.
" What's up?" I ask them.
" I thought we had a agreement." Says Rarity. Oh shit.
" We did have a agreement but that was at Fluttershy's house." I say back. " What are you here for Twilight?"
" I came to ask you about the book."
" Mm, ok but after I eat."
" How are you gonna eat it?" Says Rarity. I gave up by now.
"*sigh* With your help Rarity." I hop off the couch and walk towards the dinning area. I make it back to the kitchen and I hop on to the chair with a leap of luck to my surprise, in front of me was empty space and a open spot next to me with a plate full of food with a fork next to the food. That mare set me up. I lost by a land slide. My face on the outside is flat and blank, on the inside is a flip tone of rage, anger, sadness, and surprise.
Rarity sits down on the open spot and levitates the fork stabbing a piece of broccoli. " Open wide." Uhg. this again. Don't worry mental state it's only a week. Well today is the first meal and seeing that i'm living here and going to school, She won't feed me at lunch, but most likely every dinner and breakfast over the next six days. So twelve meals i'll be fed and six alone. Whoop a dee do. This went on for a little bit before I noticed everyone staring, Rarity seems to not mind but I sure do. Time to call them out on it.
" Why you girls staring? Haven't you seen a colt being fed before?" Spike looks angry, wonder why? " You know what? I'm getting tired and just want to eat so do whatever you feel like." finished talking and resumed being fed by Rarity. the others seemed to look over it some are like 'whoa dude!' and Spike is angry. He will be future trolling target.
Dinner is over soon and I finished my meal with help from Rarity. As that is done everyone leaves after helping clean up of course and talking and gossiping. Everyone leaves except Spike and Twilight, Rarity too of course cause it's her house. I'm now on the couch once again, thinking and waiting for something to happen. A wild Twilight appears!
" Hello Jon." I turn around lazily to see her and on her back, Spike.
" Hey Spike and Twilight. Whatcha need?"
" The book you promised."
" Out of order." I turn back around only to be grabbed with magic and lifted to Twilight's face. She has a scary face.
" Jeeze take a joke. And calm down it's only one of a kind knowledge around here. It's perfectly fine now, let me down on the floor and i'll take you there." she puts me down and I walk towards my room or I think I do. " I remember it's up stairs and down a hall. I think it's this way." I point towards a direction.
" You don't know where your room is? What a idiot." Says Spike.
" Spike! Don't be rude. You know where it is right?" Twilight asks.
" I'm not a idiot. I'm a pony right now and the reason I don't remember is I haven't memorized the layout yet. And i'm pretty sure that fighting thieves don't help." This shuts up Spike. Twilight suggest a solution.
" Do you want to teleport there?"
" Maybe the last time I got teleported I landed on books." I joke." That's not gonna happen right?"
" No Jon that won't."
" Ok let's teleport."
" Just think of something that you have a connection there." I think of my bag naturally. A pop is heard and i'm temporary blinded. My vision clears and i'm in the room where I couldn't sleep in. In front of the door way on the inside.
I look around for my bag and I spot it. " There's my bag let me get the stuff you want." I trot over to the bag only for it to be levitated by Twilight. " Hey what are you doing?"
" Oh sorry, i'm excited." Yeah sure I saw that greed in there.
" Yeah sure. Just let me open this up and let me get." I manage to get the backpack open from fangleing the zipper with my mouth and holding the front and back with my hooves and clamping it together. I grab the zipper in my mouth and drag to a side, I repeat the process again and I take a look inside.
Everything is just how I left it but everywhere. Great. The golden coins are on everything and so are the gems. At least my paper and books are neat and how I left them. I'm not separating them apart.
" Twilight can you help me?" I ask her.
" It looks like you got it though." She says in a joking tone.
" Yeah sure I need you to do something for me."
" What is it first?"
" Can you levitate everything out of the bag and place them in separate piles." She levitates everything out of the bag. The results are gold pile of about ten coins, some gems, School homework, two text books, and Library book about inflation. It was free cause book give away! " Cool. Twilight, here's the book." I knock off the top book from the text book pile and point to it. The book shoots from the ground almost hitting me. I take a short breather and look towards Twilight. Her smile is one of greed and power. She looks at the words on top and has a perplexed look. She flips to a random page and reads it. Her eyes widen and she turns towards me.
" I can't read this." Her tone is soft and sounding of 'I don't believe it'.
" Of course." She looks at me with a glare but I ignore it and continue. " If I couldn't read yours. I didn't really expect for you to read mine then."
" Why didn't you tell me this?"
" Because I just thought about it."
" I-I don't want this any more." She levitates it to the spot it once laid. Her face is now saddened. I feel somewhat sorry for her.
" Hey Twilight I have a something else for you." I point to the pile of golden coins. Finally about time I learned about these." I found these coins in the ruins I was at, they seem petty old maybe you could get some info on them? For me?" Her face turns to me and she sees the coins I talked about.
" Sure, First off their called 'bits'." Neat. " You found these in the Ruins you said?" She levitates a coin towards her eye and inspects it.
" Yeah wound them when I loot- um. Explored the ruins looking for supplies. That's all."
" Ok then. Thank you for this, anything else?"
" Take a coin with you and ask Celestia about it." Her eyebrow twitched at hearing this.
" That's Princess Celestia to you. Got it?"
" Yeah I know, but you gonna take a coin and ask her about it."
" Fine. Thank you and goodbye." Spike is asleep on her back. She took a coin from the pile and teleported home.
I leave the stuff where it is and leave to find Rarity, I want a shower after todays crap. I remember the way to the main room from my room but not the other way. As I walk towards the main room I take notice of anything noticeable so I can find my way back. I make a makeshift mental pathway back and make it to the man room. I notice the way towards the kitchen and see Rarity.
" Hi Rarity." I say to her.
" Hello Golden Spark." She says back.
" Don't use the full name. Just call me Goldie, it'll be easier this way." She nods to this. " So what are you doing?"
" Just cleaning up the rest of the other things."
" Sure. Sorry I can't help. I'll pay you back later."
" Don't worry about it Goldie. You don't have to do that."
" I'm still gonna pay you back. I'll find away."
" Sure, do you need anything?" A girlfriend. But meh
" A shower. That's all."
" Ok then let's go to the bathroom then."
What happed next was simple as last time. I stood there and Rarity levitated bath items cleaning me all around. After that I got out of the tub and Rarity dried me with a towel. I'm pretty sleepy enough to sleep in the bed so i'll probably sleep there tonight. I had a chat after she put the towel back.
" Hey Rarity?"
" Yes dear?"
" Why did you call me family?"
" Well my friends and I like to call ourselves a little family. Does it trouble you?"
" No it doesn't. Just asking."
" Ok then. Anything else?"
" One more thing. I'm going to school tomorrow, right?"
" Yes you are. Is that all?
" Yeah."
"Now, off to bed you go."
" Got it." I make it to the main room and remember the mental path. From there I make it to my room.
Everything is in a pile of where I left it. I get to the bed and hop on. I go under the blanket and sleep.
