Hey Fluttershy over here! Rainbow dash said waving her arms, “oh hello Rainbow dash”
“Hey I have somebody injured here, think you can help?”
“Hmm let me see-“
The woman named Fluttershy looked like she was feeding her pets, looks like we interrupt her, But I must say she was an odd girl like Rainbow, she wore a long yellow dress and had long pink hair, she also had wings just like Rainbow but hers were pink and didn’t look as strong as Rainbow. Again this is the weirdest place I ever been in.
“Oh my, what happened to him? He’s covered in scratches.”
“Well I don’t really know what happened to him I just found this guy washed up on sore.”
“Hey! Could you guys hurry this up, I’m running out of blood here!” Oh no I think my vision getting blurry.
“Oh yes, right away, please follow me.”
It took a couple of hours for Fluttershy to fix up my wounds but she did I’m cured, my wounds are beginning to heal. But Fluttershy says to stay in bed for a few more hours, okay so within the hours I’m here resting I need to figure out how this all happened, So it started with me escaping Captain Skinybones ship with all his gold, then I found myself ship-wreck on an odd looking island and founded by a girl with rainbow colored hair with transparent wings. So putting all the pieces together I Roger Sliversten a pirate, I’m stuck on an unknown island with a species of humans with wings. I’m not dead right? The last thing I remember is a voice that said something about “Chaotic Conjugations” and then boom. Chaotic Conjugations? What does that mean?
“Hey Roger how you holding up?” Rainbow said bring what appears to be a glass of tea, she then sat on the bed next to me handing me the glass.
“Here this should help Fluttershy says it’s good for healing your body”
“Thanks Rainbow, I owe you one mate.” I said taking a sip of the tea, which was delicious.
“Don’t sweat it dude.” She said with a cute smile, just then Fluttershy came in to the room.
“Oh hello, how are you? Feeling any better?”
“Much better thank you, say are you a doctor?”
“Oh no, I’m good with taking care of animals that’s all.”
Suddenly Rainbow dash jumped out of bed, “Alright let’s get down to the point.”
“Wait, what point?”
“Who are you, Where are you from, and why were you washed up on sore?”
Shit! What do I say I can’t say I’m a pirate, if they know I’m a pirate who knows what they’ll do to me. I need to come up with something fast.
“Well, uh… you see… I-“
“Rainbow dash!” Fluttershy said with an upset look.
“Why are you asking him all these questions? He doesn’t need any stress right now he’s still recovering!”
That actually took me by surprise, judging by how Fluttershy spoke with me I thought she was the shy and quiet type, guess you can’t judge a book by its cover.
“Yeah your right Fluttershy, I’m sorry Roger.”
“Umm no problem Rainbow.”
“Oh right, I haven’t introduce you guys to each other yet, Fluttershy this is Roger Sliversten.”
“Roger Sliversten? What an interesting name, I like it nice to meet you.”
“Likewise Fluttershy, it’s nice to meet you” I said putting up my hand for a handshake, but she blushed and stood their looking at the ground.
“Oh I’m sorry for-“
“No I’m sorry, I’m not used to meeting new people.” She said blushing even harder.
“Okay! Break it up you too, Fluttershy are we still going to meet up with Twilight and Applejack today right?”
“Oh yes, we’re all going to meet up at Sugarcube corner.”
“Hey Roger want to tag along?”
Hmm I could tag along with them and find out more about where I am, I should also found a ship so I can go back to sea where I belong. Beside it beats staying in bed all day.
“Sure I’d love to, hey do you know where the bag is?”
“Oh you mean that heavy bag you been caring? Yeah I left that thing in the living room.”
“You didn’t look inside did you?”
“What me!? No of course not.”
I hopped out of bed and made my way to the living room “You guys head out first I’ll catch up with you later.”
“Oh alright then, but don’t take too long or we’ll leave you behind.” Rainbow dash said leaving through the front door with Fluttershy behind her.
“Please don’t take too long, I think Rainbow dash means it.”
Looks like I don’t have that much time so I better find my gold fast, hopefully Rainbow dash really didn’t look inside the bag but I still can’t trust her, ah ha found it. Looks like she hide it behind the coach, actually now that I have a better look at the place it had a strange décor about it, also it smells of animals. Once I stepped towards the bag a small rabbit jumped out behind It. “Uhhh… hey little guy mind getting off my bag please?”
The rabbit responded with a death glare at me.
“Umm… okay then I’ll just slip my hand and-Oww!!!”
The bastard bite me, he bloody bite me! I grabbed between the ear opened the nearest window and throw the bloody bastard as far as I could “Take that you furry asshole!”
Now that that’s out of the way I need to grab some gold to buy a boat and get out of here fast, I open the bag to grab some gold coin or a gold crown or something. 
“Hmmm alright I’m taking about 40 gold piece’s here and saving the rest in the bag, I maybe be able to buy a small boat with some food with this much money.”
“Hey Roger you done yet!?”
Shit I forgot Rainbow dash and Fluttershy were still waiting for me “Hold your horses I’m on my way!”
“PONIES!!!” note to self, never say the word “Horse” in front of Rainbow dash.
After all that mess we walked through the odd looking forest Rainbow and I walked through earlier, Fluttershy was leading us while we followed here from behind, the walk was very quiet “Hey Roger?” Said Rainbow
“Yeah Rainbow?” this doesn’t look good Rainbow is giving me the same death glare as the rabbit.
“Listen I don’t really know who you are and I can barely trust you, but let’s get one thing straight here, if you hurt my friends in any way I will hurt you.”
I knew it, looks like Rainbow dash didn’t trust me either but I need to get on her good side, Rainbow dash and Fluttershy are the only ones who could lead me around this place “Don’t worry Rainbow I’m not a bad guy-“
“But what if you are!” she said with a hint of anger.
“I can’t trust you Roger and I know you don’t trust me either.” oh crap she knew that too?
“Well of course I can’t trust you, I can’t trust anyone here. I washed up in on a strange island I never even heard about, plus you people have wings!”
“Wait does that mean you’re raciest to Pegasus?”
“What no, look I’m saying I’ve never even heard of you people or this Equestria place, what I’m saying is I’m not from your world.”
“You’re not from my world? Well that does explain a couple of things, but how did you get here then?”
“I don’t know and I don’t care, all I need to do is buy a boat and some food and by then I’ll be out of here.”
“Is that what you were hiding in your bag?” damn it she starting to trust me less and less now, I’m going to have to tell her the true.
“Do you want to know the bloody true so bad!?”
“Yeah I do, I need to know who you are before I let you near any of my friends.”
“Fine but first let me ask you a question, how do you feel about pirates?
“How do I feel about pirates? Why are you-“
“Just answer the bloody question Rainbow.”
“Okay fine, I guess their kinda cool but I’ve never seen a real pirate before nobody here has, plus aren’t they bad guys who steal gold and kill anybody they see?”
“Yeah some pirates are evil but some of them aren’t, you see my dad was a pirate.”
“Your dad was a pirate!?” when she said that I closed her month with my hands to make sure Fluttershy didn’t hear it” Yes, my father was a pirate but not the evil ones you’ve heard in stories, no my father was a good man and a great captain. He had a huge crew who all respected him and was the best dad a kid could ever ask for, but then another pirate crew came to our town and… killed my father.” Rainbow went dead silent.
“Years later I was kidnapped by pirates and forced to be their damn cleaning monkey, I was able to escape with all their gold and then boom I ended up here.” Rainbow was still quite.
“Listen I’m not a bad guy, I would never even think of hurting any of your friends, you saved my life and I thank you.”
“Thanks, and I’m sorry for not trusting you earlier.” Rainbow said with a mild blush.
“No big deal really I didn’t trust you either, so we’re even.”
“Hey what do you mean by that!? Well fine I guess were even.”
“Rainbow dash, Roger were here.” Fluttershy said stopping us on our tracks.
“Where are we going again Fluttershy?”
“Oh I forgot, Roger welcome to Ponyville.”
