//------------------------------// // Arrival in Equestria // Story: A Freezing Hero With a Warm Heart // by Big Imagination E //------------------------------// Luke was unconscious for 2 hours til he finally woke up. He picked himself off of the snow and looked around seeing where we was. He was unsure about his new surroundings and didn't know a thing about it. "Where am i? This is far different from anything I've seen." Luke said. He then walked in the direction where he saw a little town in the distance. It was winter here so it was snowing but it wasn't bothering him. The only difference was that everyone he was seeing was an anthro pony and they kept giving him the looks that made him uncomfortable. But he wasn't paying attention and he bumped into someone and fell down. The pony that bumped into him was a female unicorn with light pink hair and purple eyes while wearing a winter coat. Luke saw her and helped her back up. "Oh im so sorry miss. Are you alright?" Luke said. "Im okay darling. Thanks for checking on me." She said. Then they both stared in each other's eyes for a good long while. Luke felt something warm in his chest and didn't know why. The pony noticed his reaction and Luke snapped out of it. "Are you okay? You were zoned out for a moment." The pony said. "Im fine. I never actually seen you before." Luke said. "Neither have I seen you. What's your name darling?" The pony said. "Im Luke." "Nice to meet you Luke. Im Fleur De Lis. But you can call me Fleur." The pony said. "Fleur. That's a nice name." Luke said as she blushed. "So can you tell me where I am?" "You're in Equestria darling. More specifically Ponyville. I came here to visit Twilight at the Winter-Fest. Would you like to join me?" Fleur said. "Um yes miss Fleur. If you don't mind that is." Luke said nervously. "Oh I don't mind. Come darling." Fleur as she walked and Luke followed her. As the two were walking to the Winter-Fest Luke kept noticing that more ponies were giving him the looks that really made him uncomfortable. Fleur noticed his reaction and tried to relax him. "It's okay darling. They'll get used to you soon enough." Fleur said. "I hope so too. I can't take them staring at me like im a freak." Luke said. "Darling. You are not a freak. So don't call yourself that." Fleur said. After an hour of walking they finally arrived at the Winter-Fest. Here we see many ponies enjoying the event and Luke didn't know how to respond to them. "It's ok darling. Just go and enjoy the event and I will be with you the whole time." Fleur said. "Okay Fleur." Luke said. He walked around seeing all the ponies enjoying the event. They saw him and were shocked, Luke didn't want to scare to them so he continued on trying to enjoy his time. So far he wasn't making any progress. Then he saw a crystal sculpture of another pony princess. He couldn't tell who it was was but he thought that it was beautiful. In fact he decided to get closer to it and placed his hand on the crystal sculpture and it started to turn into an ice sculpture with the crystal colors. But that alerted some guards when they saw that. "Hey you!" A guard said as it scared Luke. "Keep your hands off the sculpture of Celestia!!" "Im sorry sir! I didn't know! And who's Celestia?" Luke said as he took his hand off. "The princess of Equestria! Now you will unfreeze this right now!" The guard said. But that made Luke upset and as he slammed his fist in the snow it created a giant wave of snow and covered half of the team in snow freezing them. Luke gasped and everyone gasped and ran in fear except for Fleur. Then more guards came and surrounded him. Luke was scared out of his wits. "You get your ass on the ground now!" Another guard said. "Stop! It wasn't my fault! Im sorry!" Luke said. "I don't want to hear excuses!! Get on the ground! Your under arrest for freezing the princess's guards!" The guard said. "You dont understand! I never meant to hurt anyone! Please don't arrest me! I promise that I won't harm anyone!" Luke said. But the guards weren't listening and as they got closer Luke was getting upset as snow started to spin around him creating a tornado around him. "I SAID STOP!!!" Luke yelled as he released an explosion of snow blowing the guards away injuring them as they fell down. Fleur saw Luke in a bad situation and needed to help him. She ran to him and tried calming down. Luke fell crying. That made Fleur mad. "What were you idiot guards thinking?! He didn't want to hurt anyone and you didn't bother listening to him!!! I should report this harassment to the princess and have you in jail!!" Fleur said. Then she saw Luke crying and helped him up. "Luke! Darling are you ok?" Fleur said. "No. They all think im a monster! I never meant to hurt anybody!" Luke said crying. "Shh shh. Darling. Calm down. Im gonna get you to Twilight. She can help control yourself and they will see your not a monster." Fleur said "Okay." Luke said as they headed out. The two were walking to the place that this Twilight is at and Fleur did everything she can to keep Luke calm so he wouldn't freak out again. Then came 6 humanoid ponies and surrounded the two. They were The Mane Six: Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Rarity. "Fleur. Kindly move away from this guy. We got a call saying that he harmed Celestia's guards." Twilight said. "Twilight. He didn't mean to. I assure you that he is completely harmless. Just be careful not to scare him." Fleur said. Then they all saw Luke in a completely scared situation. Then Fluttershy was the first one to approach him. "Excuse me sir? Are you harmless as Fleur said you are?" Fluttershy said. "Yes. I never meant to freeze those guards. I freaked and somehow my ice powers went off and it was a mistake!" Luke said scared. "Whoa nelly. Calm yourself partner. What's your name?" Applejack said. "Im Luke. I don't know what is going on with me. I feel like I got so much ice power. So much anger." Luke said. "He's telling the truth Twi." Applejack said. Then Twilight went to him with a smile on her face. "So Luke. I understand that you don't wanna hurt anybody. You just need some ways to keep calm. Come with me and we can help you." Twilight said. "Okay. Can Fleur come too?" Luke said. "Yes. Seeing as she was helping you calm down she can come." Rarity said. That made Luke a better and followed the ponies to where Twilight is leading them.
