//------------------------------// // Meeting friends // Story: The Journey of Shadow Walker // by JeremyPunk //------------------------------// A/N: I can't write AppleJack's accent worth a steaming pile of crap so.........yeah [Shadowmere] Thoughts that are not mine {When I want to silently talk to Shadowmere} "Holy sweet Jesus riding a Pogo-stick made of jelly beans! I'm tired now. [Yeah, and now we have five minutes to get to the town square.] "That long? Huh, I thought we would have less time." [Better to be early than late, am I right?] "In most cases, yes. This happens to be one of them." [So lets go!] "YEAH!" ***4 minutes later at Ponyville square*** "I wonder where Rainbow Das-*thud*. *muffled by dirt* Ground! We simply must stop meeting like this!" "Oh sorry dude. I crashed into you again, didn't I." Rainbow Dash said "Yes, Yes you did. Both times got me a wonderful date with the ground." I just suck, do I not? "Wow Rainbow he is a smart-flank, isn't he?" I then turned to look at the new voice. What I saw was a lavender unicorn with a violet mane and tail, which both had a streak of hot pink going through it. Her eyes were the same color as her coat. Then there was a orange earth pony with a blonde mane and tail with bright emerald eyes. Next was a white unicorn with an obviously pampered purple mane and tale, plus her eyes were almost exactly the same as mine. Minus the grey tint. The next one scared me. She was bright pink earth pony with a dark, poofy, pink mane and tail. What scared me was that because of my enhanced senses(thanks Shadowmere)I could tell she had no regard to the laws of physics. Her eyes were just a little brighter shade of blue than the fore-mentioned white unicorn. Finally in the VERY back of the group of five was a butterscotch yellow Pegasus with a long, pink mane and tale, similar to the pink ones coat. She had a sort of aqua-teal eyes and she looked like a flying blade of grass would give her a heart attack. "Hello there, my name is Twilight Sparkle. Rainbow said you have a story to tell us?" Said before-known lavender unicorn. "Yes I do Twilight Sparkle, my name is Shadow Walker. But before our story time, would you like to introduce me to your friends? I already know Rainbow Dash and you, but not the other four here." Twilight then said, "Sure, girls, would mind?" The white unicorn came up first. "Why, of course not darling. My name is Rarity. I am Ponyvilles fashionista and the owner of Carousel Boutique. It's my pleasure to meet you. Rainbow was right, you are quite a handsome stallion." That comment then made me and rainbow blush. Also, of course Shadowmere was laughing in my head like a madman. [I am conflicted *giggle*. I'm proud a mare called you handsome but entertained beyond belief that they said it to you so openly BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!] {I still have that jar of 'you know what' in my saddle bag. I could easily torture you with it.} [*Gulp*] {Exactly} After that monstrous blush went away, the orange earth pony with a stetson on introduced herself. "Howdy! Mah name's Applejack. Nice 'ta meetcha' Mr. Shadow Walker." "It's nice to meet you too Applejack." I replied short and sweetly. Next the butterscotch pegasus came up......very slowly. "H-h-hi. M-my name i-is Fluttershy..." She then proceeded to 'eep' and hide behind her mane when I didn't say anything. "I'm pleased to meet you Ms. Fluttershy." I said to her softly. That seemed to calm her down. Also blush when I said 'Ms.' Fluttershy. Whenever I deal with timid ponies I tend to treat them nicer and quieter than others, least I scare them. Last, but oh CERTAINLY not least, the hyperactive pink blur of insanity bounced rapidly about 2cm from my muzzle Shooting off words like a machine gun [Blame me for his knowledge of guns please.]. "HI! My name is Pinkie Pie and I like parties and cupcakes and- *GASP* "I need to throw you a 'Welcome to Ponyville party' as soon as possible!" She was saying this all while floating...upside down. *404 Error. Does not compute* *Brain 1.0 is not responding. Please reboot system.* *Rebooting. Rebooting. Rebooting.* *Done!* *Please Enjoy the rest of your day!* "Uhhhhh....It's nice to meet you Pinkie Pie. And a party sounds good." I said with a confused voice. Twilight then said. "Alright. Now that introductions are out of the way, shall we go to the library? Then you can tell us your story." "That's hunky dory with me! Allons-y everypony! I have a story to tell all of you." So then we made our way to the library..............with a certain pink pony bouncing the whole way. ***At the library*** "Spike! I'm Home!" Twilight called. After a few seconds a baby purple dragon with green spines came down looking tired and pissed. By what Twilight said earlier and by the sound of their voice, his name was Spike "Welcome home Twilight. Whats with the stallion?" He asked very groggily and rudely, due to his obvious displeasure at being woken up this late..............even though it was still six in the afternoon. "Nice to meet you too Spike. My name is Shadow Walker, you can call me Shade bro." [Wait, what? I've been with you for 8 years and I'm not a bro? Asshole.] {We are family, we call each other by our full name.} [...I accept this explanation.] "Sup, name's Spike. I'm Twilights' assistant slash little brother figure, nice to meet you Shade. You still haven't answered my question though. Why are you here with all the girls? You better not be hitting on Twilight." I caught 'or Rairity' under his breath. Advanced senses eavesdropping like-a-boss. Twilight decided to answer..slightly. "Well Spike he's here becau-" I then butted in loudly and dumbly. "Spike, it's super special story time so either GTFO or stay and listen! I'm telling them story of my sad and pitiful life, because I am to lazy to tell Rainbow Dash the Short version of the way I lost the ability to, slash forgot how to, fly." Twilight looked enraged while Spike was just staring at me with an unamused look on his face. "Sure I guess I'll stay." "Perfect, now I have seven ponies/dragon that have a trusting aura around the to listen!" I said strangely happy for some reason.... Twilight said. "Well then Shadow Walker. Lets begin." Imagine your best interpretation of the dude from the borderlands intro. That's how spoke for the first two sentences. "So you want to hear a story eh? Well have I got one for you." A/N: Well here is the second chapter. For the two of you who are tracking this, don't expect to many updates for I have ADD so when I try to write I'll do it for about an hour. Then I get bored from doing one thing for too long and go watch more ponies or anime. Sighning out, JeremyPunk
