Chapter 3: First Day In Maretime Bay

The Next Morning...

...

...

Lukas started waking up as he sees some light on his eye lids, he peeked an eye open as he sees he's still in the lighthouse from last night, Sunny's house. He still couldn't believe that he was in another world and far away from his home, but he knows he'll find a way back to his world someday, no matter what it takes he will find a way back.

Lukas got up and started to stretch his limbs as he yawns. He looked down to his right leg and saw that it was all healed up, he took the bandages off and saw the cut on his leg, it didn't look to deep but he wanted to make sure, so he putted them back on.

He then started to hear an alarm clock going off, must be Sunny's alarm clock. As Lukas got up, he thought if he is going to stay in this world, he might as well get to know this worlds towns folk, he does want to fit in and learn about this world. Lukas liked that idea, maybe he should ask Sunny about this ''Big Day'' that she keeps talking about.

As Lukas kept waiting for Sunny he started to hear the elevator coming down, he then saw Sunny wearing a teal satchel bag with little pins on it, she waves to him. ''Goodmorning Lukas!'' Sunny said smiling, Lukas waves back. ''Goodmorning Sunny, you seem pretty excited, is it about this big day that you keep talking about?'' Lukas said, Sunny nods. ''Yup, and I'm gonna be showing everypony in town that Unicorns and Pegasus are friends not enemi-'' Before Sunny could finish Lukas stopped her. ''Hold up there! Did you just say Unicorns and Pegasus?'' Lukas asked, Sunny just nods excitedly. ''Well yeah! Haven't you heard of them?'' Sunny asked, Lukas just looks at her crazy. ''So your telling me... That Unicorns and Pegasus... Exist in this world too?'' Lukas asked completely flabbergasted, Sunny just looks at him with a normal smile. ''Uuh, yeah. I mean don't Unicorns and Pegasus live in your world too?'' She asked. ''Well, no actually. In my world, Unicorns and Pegasus are mythical creatures, we only hear about them in story books and fairy tales.'' Lukas said, Sunny was shocked to hear that Unicorns and Pegasus don't exist in his world, she wondered why. ''Oh... I didn't know that... Well, you see in my world, Earth ponies, Unicorns and Pegasus don't really get alone. And my town thinks there just monsters who fry pony brains and snatch them away. But I know the real truth about them! Which is why I'm going to tell everypony that I believe that Unicorns and Pegasi can be our friends, they used to before, and they can still be again, they can extend the hoof of friendship and we can all be united, together as one.'' Sunny finished her speech, Lukas shed a tear at that beautiful presentation.

''Wow... (Sniff) That was so touching.'' Lukas said wiping the tear away. ''Thank you, I've been working on it.'' Sunny said, Lukas then thought for a moment until looking at Sunny. ''Say Sunny, what if I helped you out on your mission to bring Earth ponies, Unicorns and Pegasus together? I would also love to see your town while I stay here.'' Lukas asked, Sunny looked a bit unsure. ''No offence, Lukas. But I'm pretty sure my town will freak out if they saw an unknown creature wandering around, I mean you look like a monster just by standing Infront of everypony. Again, no offence.'' Sunny said.

''First off, non-taking. Second, I'm pretty sure they're going to be scared of a Unicorn and Pegasus, but a creature like me, not so likely.'' Lukas said, Sunny just sighs in defeat. ''(Sigh) Fine, I guess you could come. I just hope they don't get too freaked out around you.'' Sunny said worriedly. ''I'm sure I'll be fine, I mean what's the worst that could happen?'' Lukas said.

...

Ther was an awkward silence after that as they both just say nothing...

...

''Anyway! I guess we should be going.'' Lukas said breaking the ice. ''Wait Lukas!'' Sunny said before he could go anywhere. ''Take these.'' She gave him heart shaped stickers with Unicorns and Pegasus on them, Lukas takes the stickers. ''Are we going to be doing what I think we're going to be doing?'' He asked, Sunny nods. ''Pretty much.'' She simply said. ''Then I so want in.'' He said excitedly, Lukas doesn't really do vandalism but his mom doesn't let him do any thing that evolves vandalism, but this is different he still wants to help anyway he can. He puts them in his pockets. He then noticed Sunny walking to a frame that had a picture of an old pony with glasses playing with Sunny, Lukas thought of something that made him frown but he throws that thought away cause he doesn't want to ruin the moment. ''Today's the day, Dad. I actually have a plan this time. Wish me luck!'' She said in a sing song voice, Lukas chuckled at that as she heads outside closing the door causing the frame to go crooked, she then opens the door and fixes it then going back out. 'I guess I'm not the only one who talks to himself.'' He thought, but he still couldn't help but think about what Sunny said about her dad.

He headed to the door and saw Sunny wearing some roller blades, he didn't know that ponies wearied roller blades cause they wouldn't be able to balance on there long legs but seeing Sunny wearing it pretty much proved him wrong.

After she was done putting them on she went forward and started to sing.

GONNA BE MY DAY

Good morning, sun

No time to chat, I gotta run

'Cause I've got places to be

''Hey Sunny, wait up!!'' Lukas yelled out, as he tries to catch up with her. Lukas and Sunny started heading into town where Lukas saw there were ponies everywhere.

So much to do

Excited, yes, and nervous too

A change is starting with me

I never worry 'bout upsetting carts, hardened hearts

Then Sunny collected a cart of smoothies, pulling them along the road while she sings. Lukas noticed that none of the ponies were running away or screaming. There were just giving him weird looks as he walks around town, he was a bit happy to see that nopony is really too scared of him.

Or wonder ''Will I belong?''

I've heard it enough

I'm callin' their bluff

I'll never get lost in the grey

There's something inside burns bigger than pride

Shines out of me, lighting the way

Lukas couldn't help but feel like they were being followed, he turns around and saw nothing but a red stallion reading his newspaper, Lukas shrugs it off and heads back with Sunny.

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (be my day)

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (oh-oh-oh-oh)

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (gonna be my day)

Gonna be my day (ooh-ooh)

Lukas and Sunny then look off into the beautiful ocean where Lukas can see the far off distance.

Hey there, hello

The friends I make, the friends I know

Today, you answer my call

Then Sunny and Lukas stopped to see two little fillies beating up pinatas that looked like Unicorn's and Pegasus. Lukas frowned at this and so did Sunny.

Instead of hide, instead of staying stuck inside

Instead of building your wall

She then sees a little foal looking very bored, she grabs one of the balloons and turns it into a Unicorn.

Come on and party with me

Join the band, understand

We'll all be singin' the song

She then gives it to the little foal as she looks a lot happy now, Lukas smiles at this, but until the little filly showed it to the parents who looked terrified over it.

I've heard it enough

I'm callin' their bluff

I'll never get lost in the grey

Lukas and Sunny then take out the stickers and looked at each other and smiled, they both start putting stickers all around the place, Lukas thought he heard a scream but there wasn't anybody around.

Go big or go home

Get real or get known

Get ready and raring to say

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (be my day)

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (oh-oh)

Lukas then sees some construction ponies, they look up and scream cause of the Pegasus looking kite above them, they looked down and notice it was the little kids kites, Lukas chuckled at this.

Everyone's afraid

Always judgin', never budgin'

Ain't it time we made the team, the dream

She then goes to a poster that shows an evil looking Pegasus, glooming over a little earth pony. She draws a heart around it making it look less evil, Lukas smiled at that.

Oh-oh-oh-oh

''Wow.'' Lukas said clearly impressed with how beautiful Sunny's voice was.

We'll open our eyes

Sun starting to rise

And finally able to say

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (gonna be my day)

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (gonna be my day)

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be my day (gonna be my day)

Gonna be my day (be my day)

Oh-oh-oh-oh

When they finally arrived, Lukas was shocked to see such a building, it had a big pair of pink glasses on top of it.
Lukas then looked at Sunny. 'So what is this place, Sunny?'' Lukas asked.

''This is Canterlogic, it's supposed to be a factory for making things to keep earth ponies safe.'' Sunny said rather sadly.

''Well, that sounds nice.'' Lukas said. ''From Unicorns and Pegasi.'' She said in annoyance, Lukas smile became a frown as he heard what Sunny was talking about. ''Oh...''

''But don't worry all that is about to change.'' She said determined, Lukas smiled and was about to go before looking over to Sunny. ''Oh, by the way Sunny, I just like to say you have a very amazing singing voice Sunny, I didn't know you could sing like that.'' He commented to the little pony. ''Why thank you Lukas, that's very nice of you to say.'' Sunny said flattered of his comment.

And as they were heading to the building, they were suddenly stopped by a stallion. ''Aha, there you are, Sunny. Just the pony I was expecting.'' The stallion said focused on Sunny, Lukas looked at the stallion and can see that his coat was light amber and had an aqua main and tail, his cutie mark was a gold shield with a teal horseshoe in the center and a teal heart on the bottom.

''Morning, Sheriff Hitch. I see you brought the whole squad along again.'' Sunny said referring to the two birds and one crab next to the stallion known as hitch, they gave a salute to Sunny.

''(SIGHS) What is it with me and critters? I'm like a magnet to them.'' Hitch said in annoyance lowering his head to there level. ''Guys, come on. Give Hitch a little space.'' He asked the little critters, as they literally took one step back, much to his annoyance. ''(SIGHS)'' He sighed.

Lukas was surprised that Hitch hadn't notice his presences, but Lukas thought to soon as Hitch looked to his right and looked up from Lukas feet to his head, Hitch jumped back in surprise. ''WOAH!!! Uuh, sorry, didn't see you there... What the hey even are you? Some kind of hairless ape?!'' He exclaimed as he never seen a creature like Lukas before. Lukas was once again offended for being called a hairless ape, he gave a dumbfounded look as he just stares at Hitch in annoyance.

''First off, please don't call me that... And secondly, my name is Lukas Hart, I'm a human.'' Lukas said.

''What's a hoo-men, I never heard of such a thing.'' Hitch said confusedly.

''It's pronounced hu-man, and it stands for homo sapiens, but human for short.'' Lukas told Hitch.

Hitch nodded as he trots over to Sunny to have a private conversation and whispers in her ear. ''Do you know this guy?'' Hitch asked Sunny. ''Well, you see, last night when I was at home I heard a knock at my door, and when I got there he was injured and confused, then he fainted, so I brought him inside, bandaged him up, and he told me everything about him and where he comes from.'' Sunny explained as Hitch nodded. ''So where exactly does he come from?'' He asked. ''He told me he came from another world called earth, and he has no idea how he got here.'' She said. ''Sunny, you know how crazy that sounds.'' Hitch said not believing on what Sunny said. ''Well it's either that or he comes from a tribe of monkeys.'' She said.

''You know I can hear you, right?'' Lukas said with his arms crossed tired of being offended, Sunny chuckled sheepishly. ''Heh, heh, heh... Sorry Lukas.'' She said to him, Hitch then trotted to Lukas.

''So, uuh... Mr. Hart.'' Hitch said to Lukas. ''Sorry, but I don't like being called mister, it makes me sound old and I'm only 15.'' Lukas said, Hitch nodded and continued. ''Ok, Lukas Hart. First off, allow me to welcome you to our town, Maretime Bay.'' Hitch said smiling to Lukas, Lukas also returned the greeting. ''Thank you.'' He said.

''And second, I believe introductions are in order. My name is Hitch Trailblazer, and I'm the Sheriff of this town.'' Hitch said proudly.

''Nice to meet you Hitch, by the way, your last name sounds pretty legit.'' Lukas said, liking the last name Trailblazer.

''Thanks, it's been in my family for generations.'' Hitch said thanking him for the compliment.

''Cool... So you're like the sheriff.'' Lukas asked.

''Sure am.'' Hitch replied.

''Congratulations.'' Lukas said, congratulating him.

''Thank you.'' He said, ending their conversation.

''So anyway, what's up?'' Sunny asked.

''Oh, please, like you don't know. Today is the annual presentation at Canterlogic'' Hitch said, pointing a hoof at the sign that says ''ANNUAL SHOW!''

''Hey, me and Lukas are heading there right now.'' Sunny said, She was about to pass but was blocked by Hitch's hoof.

''No, you're not.'' Hitch said. ''Listen, I know that you have come up with hare-brained scheme to sabotage it, and if you think I'm just going to let you walk in...'' Hitch then saw that Sunny passed behind him.

''Hey, Hitch...'' Sunny said in a sing song voice, but Hitch was unfazed.

''No.'' Hitch said, not wanting to do something in front of Lukas, but Sunny kept trying.

''Come on.'' She said, Lukas wondered what Sunny was up to, then Lukas heard a mare call out for Hitch.

''Good morning, Sheriff Hitch.'' The pony said to him. ''Morning, Mayflower. Dahlia.'' He chuckles a bit before turning back to Sunny with a serious face. ''Sunny, I'm on duty.'' He said sternly, but Sunny raised her hoof at Hitch still wanting him to do what she's thinking, Hitch groans and they both begin doing some kind of secret handshake... Eer, hoofshake.

''Up high! Down low! Hitch it to a post! Flip it sunny side up and on a piece of toast! Ok.'' Hitch said as they both finished there secret hoofshake.

Lukas saw the entire thing and chuckled. It was pretty funny when they did that but he also found it very cute. He then started hearing wheezing as he looked behind him and saw a pony with a red coat and a blonde main and tail, his cutie mark was a turnip. He walked over to Hitch and Sunny.

''I did what you asked for, Hitch. She never left my side, not even once.'' He said completely out of breath.

''Oh, hey, Sprout. You OK? You seem kind of wheezy.'' Sunny asked the stallion named sprout.

''That's Deputy Sprout to you.'' Sprout said rudely, He then noticed Lukas staring at him unamusingly.

''What are you looking...'' He said before pausing for a second. ''What even are you, some kind of hairless ape.'' He said rather rudely, Lukas glares at him while Sprout glairs back, Sunny then buds in between the tension.

''Sprout, I like you to meet Lukas.'' She said introducing Lukas.

''Wait a minute... You're that hairless ape that was with Sunny this whole time!'' Sprout pointed a hoof accusingly at Lukas.

Lukas chuckled. ''Ah heh, he... First off, I'm a human. And second, yes I was with Sunny.'' Lukas said flatly.

''Well, hoo-man, you better not try any funny business while I'm around, got it buddy!'' Sprout said angrily.

''Whatever you say, but don't call me ''buddy,'' pal.'' Lukas said with a hint of anger.

''Don't call me ''pal,'' mac!'' Sprout said with a bit more anger.

''Don't call me ''mac,'' sport!''

''Don't call me ''sport,'' chief!!''

''Don't call me ''chief,'' muchacho!!''

''Don't call me ''muchacho,'' slick!!!''

''All right! That's enough.'' Hitch said, breaking the daggers between Lukas and Sprout. ''You two need to stop acting like foals, right now, understand.'' Hitch said to Sprout and Lukas.

''He started it.'' Lukas said pointing his thumb at Sprout.

''Why you!'' Sprout said with anger.

''Come on guys, let's just chill for a minute.'' Sunny said trying to calm things down before somepony did something there going to regret, Lukas understood this and backed off. ''You're right Sunny, anyway where were we?'' Lukas asked.

''Oh yeah follow me, Lukas.'' She said as they both passed by Hitch.

''Hey, wait up! I'm not finished!'' Hitch said going after Sunny and Lukas. ''Sunny!'' Hitch then got in front of Sunny and Lukas. ''Sunny, we both know how this goes. Every year you try to sneak in and every year I stop you.'' He said to Sunny.

''Look, you have nothing to worry about. I'll just show Lukas around the factory, deliver my smoothies...'' Sunny was then cut off by Sprout.

''Uh-uh. You can't even step a hoof in there. My mom had you banned!'' Sprout said pointing a hoof accusingly at Sunny, which made Lukas a bit upset but didn't show it. ''The nerve of this guy.'' Lukas said under his breath while clenching his fist.

''But I-'' Sunny was about to say but Hitch sighed. ''(SIGH) I'm asking you as your friend, Sunny, not as Sheriff. Just please try not to pull any stunts today. And if you won't do it for me, do it for Lukas, you don't want to give him a bad first impression being here.'' Hitch asked Sunny gently.

''OK. OK. I'll try.'' Sunny said to Hitch.

''Thank you. Now, give your delivery to Sprout and go home.'' Hitch said to Sunny, he then saw a pony drop a piece of trash and immediately runs off to him. ''Hey, HEY! That's a violation of Code 33.'' He said going after the pony along with the little critters. Sunny and Lukas were about to head inside until being stopped by Sprout.

''Bye-Bye.'' He said as they both turned the other way and heard Sprout laughing to himself. 'I really hate that guy.' Lukas thought to himself until he turned to Sunny and saw a devilish grin on her face, she then turned to Lukas who also started to smirk.

''You thinking what I'm thinking?'' Sunny asked.

''That depends on whether were gonna knock him out or were gonna sneak into that place Mission Imposable style.'' Lukas said already liking where this is going.

''Just, follow me.'' She said winking at Lukas, Lukas can tell that she had a big plan in stored and It's probably gonna be great... But Lukas felt a bit uneasy about all this, he wasn't sure if this plan was going to pay off or succeed.

But he'll just have to find out...
