Chapter two
Perspective: Isaac
I couldn't tell what had happen, one minute I was talking to this lavender colored pony, next I was out cold on the ground. The sound of birds chirping could be herd from outside and the sun's rays illuminating the empty room as I open my eyes. Slowly I rose from a bed, rubbing my forehead as I could feel a slight pounding within my noggin. I felt like I went in a ring with a bull and lost every time i tried to subdue it. Guessing on the position of the sun, it seems to be around noon or so and the idea of oversleeping didn't seem like a bad idea now.
Looking down to my hooves I could see that I was still in pony form. Palish blue coat and hoof. Horn on my forehead. colorful environment. Yup, still on same different planet. I could only sigh as the thought of everyone back home still worried me. I had never gotten the chance to say my farewells. My grandparents would send out a police search if anything had happen to me. Amber would worry sick about me to no end and Tim. Well, Tim would just punch the nearest poor soul in the face.
I quietly got out of the rather comfy bed as my hooves made a small clunk sound when they reached the floor. Now that I got a better look of my surroundings, their is hardly anything in here other than books on shelves. There was just the bed and a dresser under a closed window. Room was decent size, bigger than his back home but just plane ordinary.
Suddenly I herd voices from the other side of the door, quietly tip-toeing my way towards the door as the voices got loud when my ear was up against the wood. The sound of the lavender pony's voice and another that was deeper than the other but held with grace and wisdom was heard on the other side.
"From what I can tell Twilight Sparkle, he seems perfectly fine. He was just exhausted from reaching to Ponyville. I'm surprise that he even made it this far on his own from wherever he came from."
So her name is Twilight Sparkle huh? Odd name to have but if he were to tell them his actual name they probably would think of him rather odd.
"It's good to know that he's fine princess but I still strike him as odd."
Guess the odd part had already been distinguished then. Wait... A princess!? Oh that can't be good!
"He didn't know anything about magic! For a unicorn he should of at lest learn the basics from magic kindergarten! I'm not the one to judge but I can't just trust him just yet. I think we should question him about where he's from and if he really does know anything Princess.
"Hmmm.... Maybe Twilight. I think we should give him some time to recuperate before we start asking questions. We don't want him panic and flee from us.
"Princess I highly doubt he would run from you since you and your sister equally rule over Equestria."
And on that note it's time for me to leave. I don't know what questions they'll ask of me but it couldn't be any good. Plus this was a princess that rules over this land! One false word and it's my ass some poorly made dungeon. So with a plan in mind I quickly but quietly made my way over the window, climbing on top of the bed and then pushing the glass outward. The window itself was only a small oval shape and could barley fit me, I should either feel proud about this or question about my small body. With that out of the way, I simply climbed out of the window and started falling onto a tree branch filled with leaves. What came next didn't end well.
Right when my hooves hit the branch my rear leg slipped off to the side and I was sent plummeting towards the ground, hitting a few small branches on the way. My body hitting hard to the ground but thanks to the branches cushioning my fall, my body wasn't as badly hurt as it should of. Groaning a little in pain I slowly rose from my spot and slightly curse under my breath, could this day get any worst?
And as the thought came to my head a huge white stallion bull rushed right into me, knocking me right back to the ground as my face was the first to feel the impact. Smoke started to fume from my head and before I could tell off this bastard for running into me he was already miles away in a mad dash. I quickly rose to my hooves, still fuming over the fact that I was ran over!
"Son of a! He's already gone. when I get my hands on him!"
"I'm sure that you have hooves instead of hands."
I quickly turn to see a light red mare, about the same height as me with emerald green eyes. A long caramel-gold flowing tail that barely touched the ground with a light orange streak running down the middle. Her mane was the same length as mine, maybe a little bit longer and instead of mine being slightly parted in the middle, hers was hanging off of one side while the rest tailed down her neck. Still, it covered most of her forehead with such a hairstyle but it fit her perfectly. She had a pair of wings tucked under a saddle bag filled with roses, so their are pegasi as well. There was a mark on her flank, just like Twilight as well but showing a different image. The image of three rosebuds laying on top of a pinkish cupcake and a fork sticking in the side of the dessert.
"I uh... I knew that. just tasting you that's all."
As I was trying to cover my mistake with a lie, the mare just giggled at me. That only annoyed me further as I sat on my rump and crossed my front legs, turning my head to the side with a little "hmph" as a sign that I wasn't too trilled for being laughed at.
"Hehe, Sorry about that. Here. Have a rose as an apology."
As she said that she turn her head to reach into her bag, taking a lone rose out and laying in front of me. I just glance down at the rose and notice how colorful it was, as if it was apart of some cartoon. Roses back home didn't have a shine like this one, it seemed too perfect to be honest.
"I uh... Thanks?"
"You're very welcome. My name is Hued Rose but my friends call me Rose. It's nice to meet you."
She stuck her right front leg out, waiting for me to extend mine. How do ponies even shake? I just got back onto my four hooves again and slowly lifted my front leg to meet her hoof with mine, shaking in the process. Bumping hooves while shaking, now I've seen everything.
"Nice to meet you as well Hued Rose my name is.... um...."
I never thought about it! Using my real name would be a very bad idea seeing as pony names are rather different than human names! I need to come up with a name quickly. let's see, I'm a unicorn so I use magic. I have a rather light blue coat, a white mane and tail with red streaks in them. I glanced over at my rump and lo and behold I have a mark as well. Mine was that of a black eight pronged star with palish blue crescent moon laying on top of the solid star. The moon was slightly crooked to the left while
"Lunar Eclipse."
"Well then Lunar Eclipse, I know that we just met but you seem like a rather good pony to my eyes. Would you like to accompany with me for awhile? I have to drop off these roses for a friend of mine."
"Well, I have nothing else to do so I guess I could."
Her only response was that of a smile as she made her way first down the path. I was about to follow until I notice the rose she gave was still on the ground. Why would she even give me this flower when she wanted me to accompany her in the first place? Eh, whatever, but I'd rather accept her gift and not show off being rude.But as I reached down to pick it up, it would always fall right out of my hooves. How do ponies even use these thing!? It's like trying to grab a controller with only your fist!.
"What's taking you so long!? If it's about the rose just grab it with your mouth. Don't worry, they're rather good to eat this time of the season!"
What!? Why would you eat something like this!? It's too pretty for it be eaten! I didn't even know that ponies or even horses for that matter ate flowers. But I am in a equine body so maybe my taste buds are different? This time with my mouth, I took the bud of the rose from off the ground and slowly with this disgusted look on my face, stared to chew on the petals. With every chew and the taste sliding down my tongue it... wasn't that bad after all and with one final gulp the taste subsided. For a minute I'd thought it'll taste like wet leaves but its more of a strawberry taste.
As I gazed upon the path, Hued Rose was already quite far ahead, my eyes growing wide as the mare was leaving me behind! Great, now I know that she's rather impatient, screaming for her to wait while I was running after her. Wait, I'm running on all fours, how am I-
Thud!

Perspective: Twlight
"Again princess, I'm terribly sorry about all this and call you all the from Canterlot."
"It's quite alright Twilight, I always love to visit you and your wonderful friends. Plus, Ponyville is such a great place to visit every once in awhile."
I could only smile at princess Celestia as a I took a sip of my tea. How she could remain calm in these stressful times she'll never know. We were now downstairs in the kitchen still in discussion about the unknown unicorn. About an hour ago the princess had scan him of anything unusual about his sudden collapse and she couldn't find anything wrong about him other than exhaustion.
"Still, where did he come from princess? For him to just suddenly collapse like that from exhaustion, he must of come far. You think he came from Manehatton or Las Pegasus?"
Celestia took a small sip from her tea cup, a little steam trailing into the air as it slowly dissipates into nothing.
"I could only guess, but their is always the subject on magical exhaustion. This stallion could of used a teleportation spell and ended up in Ponyville. I have herd symptoms of long distance transportation of where the subject would have horrible amnesia. Depend on how far the distance it could range up to a couple of weeks to having permanent effects."
I have herd of symptoms like the princess had described back in the Canterlot Library. Some went insane if it's outside of Equestrien borders and had never recovered. It's a rather scary thought but some ponies would go the distance in arcane magic. Taking another sip of my hot tea, I glance over at the clock on the wall and it had already hit noon. Speaking about exhaustion I couldn't sleep at all last night after the note was set. Spike though just went back to bed afterwards while I looked after the poor pony. Speaking of which I better check again on said stallion and make sure he's still asleep.
"Excuse me Princess while I check up on our patient."
She only gave me a nod as I got out of my seat, trotting out of the kitchen and up to the stairs to the spared bedroom. I coated the door knob with my magical aura and with a quick twist the door open inward. But when I entered the room the unicorn had already left the room with the window currently open. My eyes bulged wide as my jaw drop to the floor the second time. He left through the window!? I rush over and on top of the bed, looking out and saw that he had left already. How and why would he leave!? How did he even get without even hurting himself!? He was wanting to stay and was rather happy about it, now he just left without saying a word and THROUGH THE FRICKIN WINDOW!?
"Grrrr! When I get my hands on him I'll make sure he gives me ALL the answers I want!"

Suddenly a chill ran down my spine as I shivered at the cold. When did the temperature suddenly drop?
"What's wrong Shift? Getting cold all of a sudden? Come on, it isn't even that chilly out here."
"Oh ha ha! You're very funny! Anyways, it felt like someone or something just walked over my grave."
That was quite odd but I hope that it wasn't what I thought it was. Pissing off both that Twilight pony and their ruler could of been a rather bad idea in the first place.
