//------------------------------// // two company, three a crowd // Story: A Good Share of Dreams (Old Version) // by Sea Pony //------------------------------// ``WHAT!?`` In front of us was the most badass of dragons I ever saw, well okay Spike is the only dragon I ever saw in real life but still. just at looking at him I knew why the dragon was considered the king of the mythology with his sharp claws, is metallic looking scales and is fire breathing ability. That was the big brother of my fillyfriend? Who would have guess I would die a second time that soon? ``Fluttershy?`` Ask Twilight the meek Pegasus gave a questioning glance at her friend. ``Your brother is a dragon?! How is that even possible? You have a phobia of dragon! How could you have one as family?!`` ``We’re here too you know.`` Said a raspy voice of a mare we look at the dragon and I didn’t saw it since now but their was two mares on his back. The one who was talking was a Pegasus with a black mane, her legs and wings was a bit muscular showing she had use them a lot, her coat was coffee brown, she had two magenta eyes and her cutie mark was a compass. She look familiar somehow but where? I look at Dash, ah that must be it, her and Rainbow have the same mane cut, I realise that Dash and Twilight was gawking at the mare. Dash was the first to speak. ``D-Daring do!?`` Realisation down on me Daring do but isn’t she fictional?… Oh yeah multi-verse stupid question. ``Eh this make a eternity somepony call me by that name, so how are you little Dashie?`` The cyan mare gasp in surprise not even calling her on the nickname. ``You know my name how? Is it because I am your biggest fan!?`` She said excitedly extending her wing, What!? No she don’t have a wingboner jeez get your head out of the gutter pervert, Pegasus tend to do that when they are happy, excite, scare or when they have a lot of adrenaline in them, I think its a sort of defence mechanism in case your falling and you forget to extend your wing. Anyway back to the subject in hoof, the mare gave her a strange look. And then burst out laughing, ``Of course not, I remember you from the time you came home playing with my little Flutterheart`` Shy blush in embarrassment as Applejack nudge her with a little snicker at the nickname. Meanwhile Dash was freaking out she met the Daring do all her foalhood and she didn’t even knew it? ``Anyway Daring do was just a nickname I use when I was in other country exploring some ruins or other, I may have demolish some precious archaeological treasure at some moment and I was not rich, so I invented a identity for myself.`` She said rather proudly the bookworm of our group eye twitch as she tried to maintain herself from yelling at the older mare. ``You can all call me North arrow.`` She then glide down and look me with a stern glare. ``So you’re the one that made pregnant my poor little filly`` She said with a dangerous tone. ``I-I yes`` She grab my face with her hoof Fluttershy the other mare and the dragon roll their eyes like they knew what was about to happen, the other gasp or flinch. She lift menacingly a hoof in front of my face and she look like she was about to hit me. I close my eyes and prepare for the pain that would follow. *Clop* The hit never came I open my eyes to see she just hit the ground with her hoof her stern glare replace with a smile. ``Well it’s was about time do you know how long I wait to have grandfoals!?`` I sat her dumbfound the dragon face-claw. ``SERIOUSLY YOUR DAUGTHER IS PREGNAT OF A PERFECT STRANGER AND IT’S ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY?`` said calmly the dragon, ok now I know why he was quiet fuck my poor ear! The other mare slowly dismount the dragon she kept quiet for all the while she put a smile as she approach me, she then hug me and pat me on the back like she was saying ‘welcome to this crazy family son’. ``Dream this is my two mothers and my brother, like you probably guess.`` She said with a shy smile. ``Who is the father?`` I blurt out, Fuck me and my mouth! The two mares look at the shy Pegasus with a raise of a eyebrow like they were saying ‘you didn’t tell him?’ ``Oh! I think I wasn’t precise enough when I said I had two mothers, I don’t have father and never have .`` I look at them with a strange expression. ``So how where you born`` Fuck me! Why can’t I keep my mouth shut. This is not my business to pry the in their life! The second mothers blush like a tomato but North just smirk, she tap the tip of the horn of her wife. ``Magic induce pregnancy`` She explain simply. The other girls blush and remain silent. ``Ok so what is the name of the two others?`` I ask curiously. `` The name’s Johnny claw`` I snort as I tried to stifle a laugh, what? You would laugh too if the most badass creature you met had a casual name like that. He glare at me for a moment but didn’t look that insult. The other mare keep silent she search in er saddlebag and she took a notepad and a pencil and she began to scribe something. ‘My name is Maria ink’ Strange name for a pony but who I am to judge? What I’m wondering is why she’s writing instead of talking. ``That a beautiful name miss I don’t wana be rude or something but don’t you talk instead of writting.`` Applejack said the others look like they want to know too. North look like she was about to respond but Maria began to scribe again. ‘I don’t talk because I’m mute’ Said the paper. All our expression except Fluttershy’ North and Johnny fell as we read the response. ``Am sorry fer asking`` Said guiltily the farm mare. ‘It’s okay I don’t mind, now could we go inside, I mean if you don’t mind that is’ Well now we know were Fluttershy got her shyness from. ``Oh sorry mom I’m a terrible daughter let go inside.`` The two mares look like they want to retort to her statement but we all entered in the cottage, well except Johnny. ``Mother could you please cast that shrinking spell please`` Maria expression turn to surprise having forgotten him. And she cast a spell on the big dragon, he began to skink more and more she stop when he was at least the size of a human and the two entered the house. - - - - - - - In her house the meek Pegasus serve us tea as we began to talk in the main room, we were sitting in some couch. ``Fluttershy your house is beautiful as ever but where is all your little animals?`` Ask North arrow. ``Oh well it’s winter so most of them began their hibernation only angel is still here it’s get lonely at some time but this year I have Dream to keep me company.`` she said with a smile. Her mother gave a devious smirk. ``I’m sure his feathers are warm all these late nights when your sleeping, that is when your not getting warm with another activity`` I spit out the tea, what the hay, how can Fluttershy the most shy and sensitive pony in Ponyville can come from her? Sonata laugh his ass off. ``I wish my step-mother was this cool Dream you’re a lucky bastard!`` Step-mother!? Where not married! ``You two are so uncouth this is not even funny!`` Cried the fashionesta. ``Oh my…`` Said simply the embarrassed canary Pegasus. Everypony laugh after a while and were sharing story of our life, I was felling like I was belonging here, I knew I accept this place as a home for a while but I never felt so close of my friends like that… Like a family, I wonder how my real family going, did my mother get over my death? What about my father and my big sister? Could they continue their life, does it is selfish to even consider having a new family as they are mourning my death? ``Dream are you ok?`` Ask my fillyfriend snapping me out of my through. I notice everypony was looking at me concern. ``O-oh yeah it’s alright don’t worry about me.`` ``If it’s was alright you wouldn’t loo so down.`` Said North she had lose her normally though demeanour showing worry about me. Why are those ponies always so nice I meet them not even a hour ago I got her little filly pregnant and she worried about me. ``*Sigh* well if you all want to know, it’s silly really but you are all like family to me. Since I arrive here you welcome me like I was with all of you since the beginning not once doubting about giving your friendship to me and him happy to know all of you.`` The girls had warm smile. Even Rainbow dash shed a tear but she tried to hide it. ``Darn it you stupid colt going all mushy on us.`` She said. The tree newcomers look confuse. ``Why did he feel so sad about being welcome as a friend?`` Ask Johnny his voice was now more or less normal as he speak. ``Well you see big brother Dream wasn’t born in the Kira branch like us, he was a living in a Gaia world but one day he died leaving all his family and friends behind, he didn’t had a choice about it I think he felling guilty to have us as a family after that`` The dragon and the archaeological look sympathetic, Maria was too but there was something else in her expression that I didn’t except to see, It’s was recognition. ``So North you are the author of Daring do!?`` Dash said snapping me of my trance. ``Oh nah I’m not the type to wrote a book too boring for me I’m a adventurer at hearth and nothing else, Maria is the one who wrote all the saga.`` ``So awesome! So all of the stories are true?`` ``No it’s a little exaggerate at certain point. Yes I have solve some puzzle and survive some of the traps you saw in the books but the villains like Ahuizotl are made up to make the stories more interesting for the readers and my life is not always as exciting as it’s look, some time I pass weeks digging some holes in a same site to find noting in the end, yeah some time its boring as hay but it’s my job and I wouldn’t change it for the world.`` Dash was a little disappoint but still admire her for what she does. ``What about you Maria what is your history how did you meet North arrow?`` The mare smile and she levitate a book with her magic, the title was ‘The chronicles of the mute mare: legend of the wandering ape’ She scribe something else ‘I wanted to make a book about myself, but the editors found it too boring for their own taste, this one is the best but a single episode don't make up for a complete saga, your free to read it if you want to I mean’ At that moment the eyes of Twilight… sparkle (no pun intend) and she snatch the book of the poor mare, she began to read the story out loud for all of us to hear. ``Chapter 1: the magic book``
