//------------------------------// // A new arrival // Story: A Good Share of Dreams (Old Version) // by Sea Pony //------------------------------// *Ding, ding, ding , ding ,ding, ding, ding* The familiar sound of the train station warned everypony of the arrival of the train of the afternoon. Four ponies were sitting waiting for it to stop, three of them were talking exitedly the fourth was just looking calmly in the window. ``I can’t believe we’re finally going to Ponyville!`` Said a... oh that embarassing I have no idea if it a stallion or a mare, let call this pony a ‘she’ for now. Another mare squee in excitement. ``I know I can’t wait it will be so good I know it!`` A young stallion groan in annoyance. ``Relax y’all, ah know ya are fans of the elements, but ya are attracting the attention of everypony.`` ``Pff, you wouldn’t understand I wait a whole years working my flank in fillydelphia to surve in this new world for this moment.`` she said a little annoyed. ``Ya I know dat I’m the one who gave ya a roof half of th’ time remember?`` He respond flatly. ``Oh yea`` she look at the fourth pony who didn’t said much of a word since he arrive. ``Hey dude thanks for stopping the train when we were late, Its was kind of you.`` The stallion turn around smirking at the tree young ponies. He had some bandage wrap around his flanks were his cutie mark should be. ``Oh! That was nothing but thanks anyway`` He wave a dismising hoof at them. It was at this point that the train cam to a stop.``Oh look like were here I hope to see you three later`` With that he stand up to leave but the mare stop him. ``Wait!`` he stop in his step and turn around smiling at her. ``Yes?`` ``We didn’t ask you your name yet and I wana know what happen to you’re...” she trail off and point at his flank. ``Oh! That you can call me Emit Piks, as for the bandage... Let just say the griffins can be wild in bed`` He said laughing like a mad men as he trot out of the train. The mare blush at the trough and her friends snickered. The mare facehoof.``... Hey wait we didn’t even present ourself!`` ``It’s not important Ema, he’s gone anyway`` Said the stallion of the group. ``I like this guy!`` the other ‘mare’ said grinning. ‘Ema’ groan. ``Of course Simon would like a guy crazy enough to buck a predator`` Oups seem like I was wrong this ‘mare’ is a guy, seriously it’s not natural for a guy to look and sound so girly... Anyway lets correct this shall we? ‘Simon’ gave her a shit-eating grin and respond ``Technically, humans are predators and you didn’t have a problem with rutting with every guy you met back home`` ``I didnt sleep with all of them!... Just some of them`` Her face became flush in embarassement, she quickly trot out of the train with her backpack, she was followed by the two snickering stallions. The mare covered her eyes from the invasive sunlight and tried to look in face of her with no sucess, when her eyes finally adjust to the new lighting, she took a deep breath in amazement. ``It’s even more beautiful that in my dreams.`` In front of her was Ponyville the town that was idolized by thousand of humans. ``Yep Ponyville, also know as the city of harmony, well t’a be fair th’ only thang harmonious about this place are the elements. And how much the inhabitant are acceptable of the different ponies`` The stallion said to the mare with a calm expression. ``Well Ah have some business to do with an old friend see y’all later.`` ``Bye Goldy!`` The two unicorns wave goodbye to the earth pony as he walk in direction of the carousel boutique. The girl then turn to her friend with a excited grin. ``So where should we go first?`` Simon shrug in response. ``I dunno you should choose you wait longer than myself for this moment.`` She rub her chin in contemplation. ``Do we make the great classic and begin by the library?`` Simon roll his eyes smilling. ``Of crouse you would want to see the nerd of the group first`` ``What does that mean!?`` She ask half offended. He just smile in response. ``Nothing, nothing... Egghead.`` ``Oh you’re in for it`` Simon began to gallop the mare not far behind. ``Come here you coward!`` The ponies of Ponnyville gave a strange look at the duo before calmly resuming there day, nothing out of ordinary in a town like Ponyville. - - - - - - - ``So Twilight do you know what it could mean.`` I ask her presenting my medallion of time. ``Mmm, I’m not sure, but maybe I could scan it with my magic-`` She was interupt out of her trhough as the door slam open, and two laughing ponies. She gave a annoyed sigh. ``For the last time Apple Bloom no I don’t have a book on... How to get a cutie mark?`` She realised they look nothing like any of the crusaders. The mare tried to look to look innocent. ``Who is Apple Bloom?`` She ask innocently, she made a motion to her friend to play the game. ``Oh yeah who is that pony, that I absolutely never heard of?`` the second unicorn ask nervousely. Wow even Applejack can be more subtle, okay maybe not that much but you got the point. Twilight raise a eyebrow. ``I don’t get it.`` She said under her breath. ``Anyway Apple Bloom is the sister of my friend. A word of advice if you own a shop around her don’t let them without supervision into it. Now if you excuse me my friend here need my help with a spiritual enigma.`` ``Spiritual?`` Simon ask quizzically, ``I througt you were an expert in magic`` He receive a jab by his friend. ``An expert me? Nah it’s not because I’m the element of magic than I’m an expert, sure I suppose I learn fast compare to some other but there are many things I have yet to learn. But I studied a little the spirituals energies since it’s close of magic so I do what I can to hel him`` She blush at the praise. ``What is the element of magic?`` Ema ask keeping her role of not knowing Twilight. The purple unicorn was about to respond but I talk first. I resist the urge to groan as Twilight begin her long lecture. ``Ok I gotta go Twi, I promise Fluttershy I was going to prepare Angel’s favorite dish tonight.`` I didn’t really promise anything but I don’t want to be stuck here for hours. ``Ah, well ok see you another time Dream, I should know what happening to your medallion by tomorow!`` With that she return her full attention to her guest. I close the door of the library slowly trotting in the streets, when something strange happen, I felt a little gust of wind and I sudenly had a piece of paper in my mouth. I spit it out in my hoof and open it. What I saw Inside made my blood ran cold. A single symbol, a symbol that in the eyes of anypony else would seem insignifiant, but in my eyes it’s was a symbol of danger and death, because inside the paper was the symbol of infinity.
