//------------------------------// // strange encounters // Story: downed in Equestria // by Average_NZ_Bronie //------------------------------// Twilight was confused, after the strange bipedal creature emerged from the steel beast twilight had tried to talk to it, she barley managed to say a sentence before the creature began screaming in ponish that something couldn't be happening before puking all over the ground and her hooves, the strange creature then fell to the ground on all fours which didn't look like how they should be, the creature the moved back into the steel thing, when she checked on it later she saw it asleep on the floor. confused she decided to look at it while it was asleep. returning with spike a bit later she saw it had changed positions on the floor, she noticed it had two red marks on it's body, she guessed they weren't meant to be there because they seemed to cause the creature discomfort whenever they touched the ground, as twilight observed it more closely she noticed that outcrops on it's back had marking that said something that she couldn't understand, there were obviously bits missing to it because she supposed it didn't mean to say perement air force she couldn't figure about what it meant when she was closely examining its face she noticed its eyes slowly opened, then flew open once it saw what was leaning over him, it quickly scattered back into the slanted rear of the steel tube, and it was probably the closest she would think it would come to teleporting. with it now being wide awake, it stared at her in shock and she stared right back with curiosity in her eyes. it opened its mouth and began to speak "who are you" now it was twilight's turn to stumble back in shock, she hadn't expected it to know ponish, as she stared in shock her brain went into autopilot telling her to respond nervously with, "t-t-t-twilight sparkle" she had gone into defensive mode, with spike bravely cowering behind her, suddenly the tube leaned to one side, [unbeknown to them it was the landing gear housing collapsing on one side] she saw the bipedal creatures eyes fly wide open as two bronze cylinders rolled across the floor in response to the sudden change of angle of the hull.
