//------------------------------// // The Strange beginning Ch.2 // Story: The Stanger Beginning // by Cross-Shard //------------------------------// The Strange beginning Ch.2 “Uurrr man that hurts… wait what?” I said out loud ‘Wait, where am I? and why is it so quiet and is that trees rustling? I thought to myself ‘And what am I laying on? It feels too soft to be wooden flooring at the conventions’ I thought trying to run my fingers over what I’m lying on. ‘Okay, calm down Alex, think, go back over what happened, right I was at Twitch Con and was doing some shopping around I found a strange stall that had The Travelling Merchant from Terraria, then I brought that purple coat that he hanging up and he gave me hat as well that was part of the coat then he pulled out 6 orbs, thought I did not ask for them… hmmm I think that everything…’ I thought still laying down on the grass ‘Alright let get up. I need to survey my soundings and fined where I am…’ I thought trying to get my body moving again “GRRR come on dam it move!” I said out load ‘dam it I can’t move, let just try the eye first…’ I thought after trying for 5 mints to get my body moving… and ‘What the hell?’ I thought After opening my eyes “How the HELL DID I GET OUTSIDE? AND WHY AM I SEROUND BY TREES and where are the clouds it was at least overcast the last I checked…. And is that my voices? It a lot deeper than I remember, thou I’m not compiling just hope I still got my singing voices…” I said only notices my voice just now. ‘Right, time to move the rest of the body, let just try the arms first. I need to see what happened to me.’ I thought trying to move my right arms ‘Come on, come on… YES keep moving, come into my eye line almost there’ I thought in victory as I sore my arm come into my line of sites “HUH? Wait WHAT?! WHY IS MY ARM A DRAGON ARM?” I screamed out, sitting up in the progress “why is my arm that of a dragon… wait what about my other arm? Huh?” I said bringing up my other arm “okay why is the arm a lion? Or is it a black panther’s arm? Then what does the rest of my body look like?” I said Looking down I see that I’m in the coat I brought back at the convention, but I’m also wearing the same style of trouser. Black and purple, black being the main colour while the purple is the details… “huh, nice of him to give me trousers as well, and wait do I have a 6 pack?” I said looking at my stomach and seeing the outlines of a 6 pack ‘Hell yea, I have a 6 pack! Nice’ I thought happily to myself “alright I need to move and find a mirror or something so I can have a look at the face I have… because it not fun when you can only see you snout? Thou if I’m not wrong, I think I’m going to see a dragon looking back at me…. And I’ve gone mad talking to myself… great” I said slapping myself in the face “alright let get up” I said pushing myself up onto my feet ‘Right, let fined a town or something, because I need to find out where I am…. What that heck is that itch on my back?’ I thought looking over my shoulder and at my back and “I HAVE WINGS, HELL YEA, know were talking… Right learn how to use them later main priority is to find a way out of this forests or fined a body of water so I can see my face… or both… and there I go again talking to my self… sigh ” I sigh to myself… 20 mints later ‘Dam it I’ve been walking for I think about 20 mints now… and nothing just still trees and bushes… oh and yes I do see you wright, can you, you know just get me out of here…’ I thought ‘Wait YOU CAN SEE ME?’ ‘I said’ Looking at the wright ‘yea I can, you give me the power to brake the 4th wall stupid so what do you expect, of course I’m going to see you and hear you, so just get me out of this forest now pleas’ I thought still looking at the writer and tapping my foot ‘or give me a body of water so I can at least see what you’ve turn me into and I can see the handsome face of mine’ I ‘ask’ the writer still tapping my foot on the grass and raising an eye brow waiting… ‘alright there is a body of water coming up so you can see you face, also you will find a village soon thou be pepped to see something shocking, also you going to be fighting soon, you also need a new name so that just my input to you for now best of luck!’ ‘I said’ “Finale! How far from where I’m standing? … … writer? Dam it he gone… well I’m close… but what did he mean I had a fight soon I don’t even know how to fight… that going to be a problem… hmm I wounded…” I said bringing up my right arm I snap my fingers frizzing time “huh, it works, holy crap I can freeze time!? Well now I can practice all my powers… I think… well” I froze ‘wait how do I un-freeze time? Uh oh umm crap… no calm down I can figure it out just need a- bit of time… sigh, I just made a joke about time… crap…’ I thought slapping my self in the face for the bad pun. ‘alright jokes aside, I need to find out about all the power that The Traveling Merchant gave me…’ I thought getting all my thought together for the long training that I’m about to do… 7 year later…? frozen time, so like 0.5 second outside of frozen time…? First year – Strength training body trained with a nice looking 8 pack, Cus why not…. Second year – Light magic training Basic magic for all day use and healing. Third year – Chaos magic training Cray magic is the best magic so unpredictable but so useful and easy to use. Tour year – Dark magic training Hard to control compared to Light magic this one needing a lot of focuses behind it and control not something to take lightly. Fifth year – Blood magic training Man am I glad that I do not die of blood loss because that would have been a problem, but good for wards when needed Sixth year – Necromances training This I not good not good at all, but useful when needed as well but I don’t think I’m going to use this one a lot, unless I’m going agents a large army or something, hmmm Seventh year – Time magic training This one was a fun one to play with going back and forth thrown time around like it nothing but I need to be careful or else I might screw up something, don’t want to do that, ‘well that went longer then I thought it would take’ I thought coming out of the time lock… ‘Thou I did get a lot more muscles so that one thing, thou I have more power than I thought I did before hmm… still need that body of water to see my face have not done that yet…’ slapping myself that I did not do that In my 7 years training “oh well, now the write said that there is a body of water somewhere near hear thou where he didn’t say where hmm…” I stop and listened to my surrounding for the body of water…” splash… snapping my head in the direction of the splash I heard ‘huh didn’t know my hearing was that good…?’ I thought while beginning my walk to the stream of water I heard and then I will find that town near by… “AHHHHHHHH” snapping my head in the direction of the scream I just heard I began running and I think I’ve found the surprise the writer is talking about… just stopping outside the forest, there was a small town just a little bit away, thou that not what peeks my interest, no it the residents in the little town the get all my attention ‘wait is that an equine on 2 feet or would it be hooves, and what is with the colour palette?’ the pony had white fur and a purple mane that was style with lushes curls, a form fitting dress… with a strange mark of 3 diamonds on her arse? Or would it be flank? And guess that would make her a she… or would it be a mare? ‘shut up writer and get on with it we can talk later… right?’ I yelled in my thought at the writer… I than begin running into the town to fined out what going on…. ‘alright let’s begin… my new adventure…!’ I thought Running towards the town I see a sign that said “welcome to pony Ville” ‘that a strange name for a town, but I think that can be worry about later’ I thought when I ran past the sign heading towards the mare running in my direction “excuse me ma’am what the problem and why are you running?” I ask the mare as she came closer ‘dam I have not realized how tall I am now I must be 7 feet tall’ I quickly thought coming to a stop in front of the mare “please help the diamond dogs are trying to capture evrypony for their slavery!” the panicked mare said to me “you need to leave darling you don’t want to be court by them ruffians and be made into a slave please!” the mare kept going on but I ignored her and carried on into the town “NO you can’t go into the town sir you be court” the mare said clinging onto my arm trying to turn me away. But I was staying and not letting these Diamond dogs get away with what they were doing “sorry madam but I hate slavery with a Passion! and I will not stand by while I could be doing something about it… and you would be wised to let my arm go! Or we are going to have a problem…” I said looking over my shoulder, while my magic was coming into effected and I did not want to hurt her ‘I think I scared her with the look I gave her… oh well time to get this done…’ I thought seeing her let go of my arm I ran into the town to fine the slavers… Pov ??? ‘what is he, he looks like he had flame leaking out of his mouth and thou eye he look like he gone insane, oh dear this is not good…’ I thought to myself ‘oh dear, I need to fine Twilight and the other and get a letter to the princess’s! We might have more than Diamond dog to worry about… after’ I then started running towards the other side of town around the outside “please be safe my friends…”
