Telling my story

I woke up sore, probably from hitting the ground yesterday. I stretched out and looked around to see that I was still in the library. I picked it up and read it to make sure that I’ve written everything. Once I was satisfied with what I wrote. I got up to stretch more, then I heard a knock echo throughout the building. I headed down the stairs to open the door and see a stallion standing there, trying to be brave. I leaned against the door and said, “How can I help you?

Stallion bowed and said, “Sir, the princesses wished for me to come get you.” I nodded and flitted to the orchard to get an apple that hung over the fence, then I flitted up into the castle. Once I landed, I startled a few guards, they almost jumped out of their armor and they pointed their spears at my neck. I placed my hands up for surrender, then I heard the door open

Luna walked in with Celestia, Cadence, and Twilight walking behind her. Celestia said, “Lower your weapons, it’s alright. Darren, I hope you got some sleep.

I lowered my arms and said, “It was okay. Although, I would’ve preferred to sleep somewhere besides the library.”

It looked like Luna was about to say something, but Celestia cut in and said, “In the morning, as you are asleep, We’ll send a few ponies to rebuild the castle, now about that story?”

I sat down on the floor and told them about my adventures. Twilight was a little fascinated when I was talking about the circus and the people working there, Cadence tried to hug me when I was talking about Debbie, Celestia and Luna seem to keep calm and just listen to my story and once I was done, Luna said, “That’s an interesting tale, and sorry for the hardships.”

I nodded and said, “It’s fine, It’s been years of dealing with it and it seems like it doesn’t exist now.”

Celestia nodded and said as she turned to Twilight, “Twilight, does your castle have enough room for Darren until the castle’s done?” She nodded and Celestia turned to me and said, “You’ll live with Twilight until it’s done and if you need some blood. I’m sure ponies will volunteer once they learn more about you. For now, you’ll take some blood from Twilight.”

I said as I was about to leave, “Okay, I’ll see you there Twilight.”

Right before I could flit, I was unable to move, then Twilight said, “Why don’t we take the train.” I nodded and followed Twilight out the door.
