Growing up in equestria

Dylan and Fluttershy made their way through the town. They soon came to a rather large tree. When Dylan first saw it he thought it was just a very big tree, but as he got closer he eventually saw it has a door and windows. They walk up to it getting a few stares from some ponies around town. Fluttershy trots up to the door and knocks on it with one of her hooves.

"It's a public Library, you don't need to knock!" Came a voice from the other side of the door. The voice sounded like a boy

Upon hearing the voice Fluttershy opened the door. Inside there were many shelves along the walls with lots of books in each shelf. There seemed to be some tables that look like tree stumps with a round board around them. When they walked in Dylan noticed a lizard that was about a foot smaller than him.

"Hello Spike, we came here because my new......friend?, got a cut on his face and we thought that twilight would be somepony who keeps some emergency medical supplies. Could you find T-twilight also because I want to introduce him to the both of you?" Fluttershy asks the large lizard.

"Yeah sure Fluttershy, I'll go find her and a first aid kit." Says Spike.

He runs off into the upper level of the library. After a few minutes Spike is waling back down with a big first aid kit and a purple unicorn walking behind him. When they reach the bottom the unicorn gets a shocked expression on her face at seeing Dylan. After a minute her shock turned into a really big smile.

"See Twilight, I didn't lie about there being a big monkey with a hurt face." Says Spike with a hint of triumph in his voice.

"Um.....hi?" Says Dylan with a bit of nervousness in his voice.

"OH MY GOODNESS IT CAN SPEAK!" Exclaims Twilight.

Dylan jumps and runs behind Fluttershy to hide behind her. Spike shoves Twilight and says something to her. She then looks down at the ground in an embarrassed way.

"Oh, I'm sorry about that Dylan. I forgot that Twilight can get very excited when she sees something she wants to learn about. I'm sorry I didn't tell you." Fluttershy says to Dylan trying to calm him down.

After a few minutes of Fluttershy calming Dylan he eventually comes out from where he is hiding. Dylan was still a bit scared but he tried to be brave.

"H-h-h-hello, my n-names D-Dylan." He says regaining his terrible stutter.

"It's nice to meet you Dylan. I apologize for scaring you I just got excited about learning about a new creature. Would you mind answering some questions about yourself and you species after we get your face taken care of?"

"A-alright." Says Dylan still being a bit nervous.

Twilight turns around and leads them to a small area with a table and some pillows around it. She has Spike set the first aid kit down and retrieve them all something to eat. Fluttershy opens the first aid kit and removes an alcohol swab and a bandage. She wipes Dylans cut with the alcohol swab and uses the bandage to cover the cut.

"Well, it's good news that you don't need any stitches for this." States Fluttershy.

Eventually Spike comes back in with a few plates with him. He sets them down and then sits down at the table with the rest of them. Dylan notices that the sandwich in front of him has flowers on it.

"So Dylan, what can you tell me about your kind. First off what is the name of your species? and if you can give the scientific name with that it will be a big help." Asks Twilight bringing over a quill an ink pot and and some paper.

"Um my species is known as Human and the scientific name for us is Homo sapiens." Replies Dylan. "But how did you bring the writing stuff here?"

"Oh, well you see Unicorns can use magic for many things such as simple levitation of objects all the way to telleportation." Says Twilight in a smart way. "Now, moving on. What does you species eat? Because I noticed that you haven't tried you sandwich and you got a confused look when you saw it."

"Oh well um, Humans can eat many things like fruit, vegetables, some fungi and meat, but many choose not to eat meat because they think it is wrong to kill other animals to get food." Says Dylan who is now getting less nervous. "Humans can't eat grasses without some problems and flowers are usually poisonous to Humans."

Upon hearing that some humans eat meat the ponies look a bit scared but lose it when Dylan starts talking about how he doesn't need it. Spike looks down at the ground awkwardly as he realizes he brought Dylan some food that would probably make him sick. Dylan's stomach then makes a lot of noise and spike gets up and gets him a lettuce, cucumber and tomato sandwich instead.

"How old are you Dylan?" Asks Twilight.

"Uh about 7, why?" Replies Dylan.

"Oh just asking, What age do Humans become adults?" Said Twilight

"About age 18 but usually males are not done growing till 21."

"Wow that's five more years than it would take for a pony."

"Yeah Mo-uh Ms. Fluttershy said something like that to me." Dylan says nervously.

Hmm, he almost called me mom again. Thought Fluttershy.

"Dylan do you mind if I take a few samples from you?" Asks Twilight.

"Um w-what type of samples?" Replies Dylan.

Twilight tapped her face with a hoof while thinking. "Hmm, maybe some skin samples, some blood samples, maybe a few strands from your mane." Says Twilight listing off what she wanted to take.

"Um....okay." Says Dylan hesitantly.

Twilight goes into the basement and returns with a needle some sort of thing that looks like a very fine cheese grater and some scissors. She takes the hair and skin samples no problem but Dylan got scared when Twilight tried to take the blood. Fluttershy and Twilight both comforted him and while they were Dylan didn't even feel that Twilight had already taken the blood.

"Alright" Says Twilight. "I will be back in a few minutes and then we all could go meet somepony else because most of the tests will take a while and the data will be there when we get back."

Twilight goes back into the basement and after a few minutes there was a rather loud explosion from down the stairs.
