//------------------------------// // The Place Where I Fit In // Story: Road To A New Life // by TheColtDrawings //------------------------------// "Ugh...huh?" I said as I felt a slight tap on my muzzle and it took a while for my vision to gain focus and before i knew it i saw three little ponies that were a bit small than me "What do you want?" I asked. "Whew...so your alive..." A yellow pony said "My name is Apple Bloom! and this is Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo" Apple Bloom Said "And yours?" I rolled my eyes because everyone is asking me this. "Ugh...I don't have a name so everyone just because I AM a colt..." I shouted and galloped to the right passing sugar cube corner but i knew they were following me and i was getting tired so i just stopped "FINE! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" I shouted. "We were just wondering if you wanted to join our group...because your the first colt we've found that can join us" Scootaloo said and all three of them showed me that they were blank flanks and i thought this could be a second chance. "Oh...um...s-sure!" i said nervously and they walked me into this weird place that was filled with apple trees and before we knew it i saw a wooden tree house. "HOLD ON A SEC!" Sweetie Belle said and ran back into the apple trees and came back with a red cape that didn't necessarily fit but I ignored it and walked inside and the tree fillies went behind a backboard. "Here today we have a new crusader, Colt, The grey pony of magic and trustworthy and is now officially part of...THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" she announced and they put on their capes including me and i kinda blushed and we headed out and Apple Bloom took me to a place that i dreamed of...a farm. "Where'd you get this..." I asked in awe and Apple Bloom giggled. "This barn was here for generations! me and my family have lived in it and cherished it" She answered. And with those words I left in tears taking off my cape and went back into town and ran and ran "n-no....These ponies....t-they have...everything i wanted...A family,Barn,Friends but most importantly PARENTS" I said to myself and ran a long way from the barn and went back to the tree and landed on it with a big *THUMP!*. "What was that?" A purple Pony said as they came out of the tree and looked at me "Oh...it was only...." She said and starred at me and ran back into the tree and came back out with a letter. "Dear Twilight Sparkle, You will be having a guest over to ponyville which may be your biggest obstacle that you've faced in friendship" Twilight read and grabbed my hoof and ran into the place "So what's your name?" She asked. "Why does everyone want to know my name?" I thought but said "Colt..." I said and she also raised an eyebrow but then her eyes got big which scared me even a bit more than that pink pony who smiled all the time. "Interesting...so no name..." Twilight said and started to write on a notepad and i looked left and right in confusion and saw a baby dragon and ran to it. "Hey...are you behind this?" I said as i grabbed him by the neck. "W-what?!" He said and i could tell he was telling the truth from his voice so i let go. "Well do you know why everyone is being so nice and asking what my name is?" I asked. "I don't know! how about you visit Apple Jack, she's the most trustworthy in this town, she's at the sweet apple anchors barn!" He said and went under his blanket so i sneaked through the window as Twilight was thinking so i ran processing the words and slowed down. "So...i have to go to the barn..." I said and sighed because that place is the thing i wanted the most in life from the second i was born so i walked trying to avoid all the other ponies because i was tired of answering their question which my answer wasn't really valid. So once i got there I soon got an idea and ran into the barn and hid in the hay to see Apple Bloom,an old green pony,an orange pony, and a red stallion "they have an entire FAMILY in there..." I thought and got out from the hay and made myself a sleeping spot in one of the corners of the barn which was surprising comfy and with that i went to bed. "Hello...Colt?" A voice from the abbess said. "Celestia? Is that you?" I asked. "No, it's me, Luna" Luna said and came out from the abbess and smiled "It seems you have already grown..." she said. "W-wha-huh?" I said in confusion and patted my head and lifted a yellow ball of light from my mane and it was glowing brightly. "This is your friend-meter, it shows how much of a friend you've become" She said but i rolled my eyes and walked slightly away. "I'm not interested in making friends, i'm only interested in finding out who i am!" I shouted in anger. "Well then...okay...if you think you can do this on your own then that is your wish, but everyone gives in at one point...you said you wanted to have a normal life...you need friends to answer your questions...now...time to wake up" She Insisted and made the ball of light bigger and bigger until everything was pure white and then woke up "Huh...friends can solve all my problems?" I asked myself and looked at the window from the apple family and my tummy growled "Maybe it IS time to eat..." I said and went into the house.
