When DragonFlame awoke, she didn't want to. She was so comfortable. It felt like she was back at home.
"Maybe it was just a dream," she mumbled, but she knew it wasn't, she could still feel the wings upon her back.
Wings.
She sat up on her bed and opened her eyes. She knew what she was going to do today, she was going to teach herself how to fly! She was good at teaching herself things so she was sure she could handle it. She walked downstairs. Twilight was already awake and in the kitchen.
"Morning Twilight," DragonFlame greeted.
"Good morning," replied Twilight, "You hungry?"
"Starved," answered DragonFlame, and her stomach gave a load rumble in response.
"Well good thing I made breakfast then," Twilight said, "You like hay waffles?"
"Never tried them to be honest," replied DragonFlame, "but I'll have some."
Twilight levitated a plate of hay waffles to DragonFlame. DragonFlame took it and sat down on the table and looked at them. She liked waffles, but she had no idea what hay tasted like. Why would she? What kind of human ate hay? She shook those questions out of her mind, she wasn't human anymore, she had to adapt to pony culture. And one of the first ways to do that was to eat their food.
She went to try one, but realized that she had no clue how to pick it up to eat it. She couldn't exactly use a fork. She began to get mad at herself for not making her OC a Unicorn. Using her hooves, she tried to pick it up, and she fumbled with the waffle until she got an okay grip on it using both hooves. She looked up to find Twilight staring at her.
"What?" she asked.
"Oh nothing," was Twilights reply, "I just never had seen a pony eat like that before."
"Well how ponies normally eat then?" DragonFlame asked, trying not to sound dumb.
"Well I normally use my magic," explained Twilight, "but since you aren't a unicorn, you can't. But I've seen many ponies do it like this." She then demonstrated to scoop up a waffle with one hoof and took a bite. "See? Or you could just eat it off the plate, some ponies do that, but I think it's quite childish and messy."
"Okay," DragonFlame, and she put the waffle down and proceeded to scoop it up with her hoof just as Twilight had done. It was easy. She took a bite, and found it crunchy and dry, but tolerable. She finished her waffles and proceeded to walk out the door.
"Thanks for breakfast Twilight," she called, "I'm going out, see ya!"
"Okay bye," Twilight called back, "but be careful!"
Not bothering to answer, DragonFlame ran out the door and looked into the sky looking for another Pegasus (although she did keep an eye on the road, she did not want to bump into Rarity again) so she could see how they fly and she could copy.
Finally she found a grey Pegasus with a yellow mane (she remembered that her name was Ditzy Do, although many people called her Derpy Hooves), who was about to take off. DragonFlame stayed back, not wanting to be spotted by Ditzy. She watched how Ditzy angled her wings and DragonFlame mimicked her. She watched how the grey mare took off and DragonFlame did it also, but not putting any force into it so she would stay on the ground. She watched Ditzy fly before Ditzy flew out of sight.
"I can do this," murmured DragonFlame trying to be confident, although in reality she was shaking from head to hoof. She spread her wings, and took off. She angled her wing wrong and fell. She tried some more, and failed. Finally on like the 20th time she finally got it! She was flying! She tried hard to stay in the air, it was difficult to do so.
"Hey you!"
DragonFlame looked around, she saw nopony.
"Up here!"
She looked up, there sitting on a cloud, was no other than DragonFlame's favorite MLP character, Rainbow Dash.
"Oh, um hello!" called DragonFlame, and Rainbow Dash flew down. The wind from her descent made DragonFlame stumble in the air, more than she already at least.
"So I see you have a talent for flying," said Rainbow Dash.
"R-really?" DragonFlame asked. She was sure that her flying wasn't deserving of any compliments.
Rainbow laughed, "No, not really," she smirked, "a chicken could fly better than you. You're a full grown mare, yet you seem to have never have flown before! Hey, you and Scootaloo should be friends, neither of you can barely fly! Of course you seem to be able to actually get off the ground, but who cares. Anyway, catch ya later chicken!"
Rainbow Dash then flew around in circles around DragonFlame. The wind from it made it hard for DragonFlame to stay aloft. Rainbow went faster, and soon DragonFlame was unable to fly, and started falling to the ground, screaming.
SPLASH!
Groaning, DragonFlame sat up, all wet. She had fallen in the fountain at town square.
"Ha! Wet chicken!" she heard Rainbow Dash call. She watched Rainbow fly off, she was cackling at her own joke.
DragonFlame crawled out of the fountain shivering.
After drying off, she spent the rest of the day back at the library, all the while still wondering if this was really Equestria.
