-----Fire-----
The Everfree woods are pretty creepy, especially when it's night. When I left the sun had just gone down, now its pitch dark. Except for the light that the moon's giving off. That made it a bit better. Speaking of the moon, I wonder if Princess Luna found one of those ponies she was looking for yet? I don't really know, my memory mostly remembers pictures instead of words. Heh. Pictures. I've never checked out Princess Luna before, and when I did earlier tonight, she was HOT. Not to mention MAD. Are other ponies always that hot when they're pissed?
Anyways, the Everfree? Not so fun. Ice had always taught me how dangerous the Everfree was, especially at night. Mainly because of the Timberwolves. After I escaped the dragon with my amazingly fast speed, I ran into a group of Timberwolves. They were...scary... menacing, pretty demanding. Demanding of pony flesh I mean. They surrounded me and... Ow, it's painful to remember. Those Timberwolves did some damage on me. One of them tore a nasty gash in my left hind leg. THAT memory I HATE. Some memories of mine I hate, others I look back on and I would find myself smiling like an idiot.
Like the other day, (last week maybe?) Ice almost caught me *looking* at her. She was (as always) cooking something. I noticed how nice she looked that day... and... Well... Wait. I was getting attacked by Timberwolves. ANYWAYS.... they DID jump me, they DID bite me, tear me, try to eat me, and they succeeded. A bit. No, not at all. They failed trying to murder me. When I was attacked, a sorta surge of strength pulsed through me. This is gonna be fun. My hind legs jerked out behind me, nailing a timber wolf in the face. I could hear a loud CRACK as it went limp.
I moved on to the next timber wolf. CRACK. Next, please! CRACK. Apparently I paused too long before bucking another timber wolf and one of the remaining three bit me in the leg. Ouch. I fell to the ground, and as I did, the three Timberwolves jumped on me AGAIN and started biting, clawing, gnashing, etc. And as they were, rage poured through me, and the temperature rose to extremely comfortable heights. And I mean ROSE. It got VERRRY hot. So hot, I began to hear sizzling. I looked up, no I STOOD up, and noticed three things: I was on fire, it was extremely comfortable to be on fire, and the Timberwolves were burnt to a crisp. OW. Did one of them get me too much or something? I turned my head around to look at myself. There was a wide gash in my left hind leg and blood was dripping from it. I stopped looking at my leg and noticed that I was on fire.
"Wow" I said. "What the hell I'm on FIRE!" How did this even happen? Oh well never mind that. Can I control it? I focused my thoughts on the fire and it slowly died. What. Freaking. Fun. I focused on becoming aflame again, and sure enough, I could feel the warm heat of myself on fire start up again. Maybe that's why my cutie mark is a flame! I have power over fire! Wait. Fire. Magic. I. Am. An. Earth. Pony. Ugh this is insane. Where's Ice when you need to talk to... And that's when I realized that not only I, but Ice were earth ponies that could use magic. My flame instantly died. Why are the Princesses looking for someone like me and Ice? And how can we use magic anyways?
Well, I never SAW Ice use magic, but I connected the dots. Her NAME was Ice, her cutie mark was an ice shard, she felt pretty cold (Not that I've touched her or anything, but... wait... ops, yeah I did touch her.) And, well... she LOOKED like ice herself! Damn! This can't be. Oh, well, I might as well get used to it... No. That's not something I'm gonna get used to so easily. But it won't change anything, right? Wait, yes it will. Darn. And with me being a, uh, what was it? Pyro-something or whatever? Yeah, that's it. Something along those lines. While rambling on with these insane thoughts, I remembered my injured leg. OUCH. Wait, I wonder if I can heal myself? Sure enough, healing flames lit my leg on fire. Afterwards, the wound was healed. YES! I CAN HEAL!
I lost myself in my newly discovered ability and began to play with it. I lit the bottoms of my hooves on fire and begun walking around, creating little fire-hoof prints. I breathed fire, accidently igniting a tree. Luckily I can absorb it as well as exhale it! I wondered, what else could I do? And what could I do to help with the return of Discord? Hmmm, that's a lot for a pony to think on. Oh well, I better get back to trying out my new power! I must have spent quite a long time with my fire, because I could hear somepony coming. Was that the sound of... hooves sliding on ice? Yup. That was Ice, skiing over here on an ice board. Fun. I wonder if I can fly?
"Fire! What are you doing?" Ice stopped right in front of me.
"Ice! Nice board! I was playing with fire!" That wasn't the smartest thing to say...
"Hm... you're heading to Ponyville, aren't you?"
"Yes..."
Ice just stopped there. I HAD to tell her about my magic! "Hey, Ice! Did you know that-"
"Yes, I did know." She cut me off. "And I didn't expect you to come out this early." Come out?!? What is she saying?
"Um... elaboration, please?" I was darn confused.
"Yes, I do suppose an explanation would be fit. Let's continue on to Ponyville while we're at it, though." So we headed off to Ponyville.
"You are a pyromancer, a pony that can use fire magic. Our types are different than that of other ponies. We cannot use the same magic that unicorns can. Our magic is a bit more... specific. You have the power over fire, explaining your cutie mark. Ponies like us are destined to have our type of magic at birth, and we get our cutie marks at random times when we least expect it. Our bodies react to the magical aura and begin to develop our powers. Then, as we go through life, we 'come out' as to say. Our bodies react to our certain type of magic once again, and we go on an uncontrollable rampage."
"Like what happened to me when that dragon hit me with fire."
"Exactly."
"What about you?"
"Now that's a story for another time, sweet Fire." Sweet, huh? I bet you didn't mean to say that!
Ice's face grew red, realizing what she said. GOD she is hot when she blushes! "So you're-" I tried to change the subject.
"A cyromancer." She finished for me. "Cyromancers have control over the cold and icy stuff like that."
No, I think I'll make her blush again. "That's hot." That didn't sound like a joke, as I intended it to be. Ice blushed hard, and turned her head away from me, finding interest in the trees on the side of the path. I think I successfully hit on her. SUCCESS! Not the reaction I wanted, but SUCCESS!
I'm enjoying myself here. "You look hot when you blush." Heh, too bad she's not the pyromancer. Then my hot jokes would be funny.
We stopped walking now, and she grew even redder, and turned her head away in attempts to hide it. I could feel myself getting... aroused. (A little bit too far I think?) WHAT? NO WAY! She's my CARETAKER! (And only three years older than me) How in the world am I getting...? WOW... by this pony? My body began to shiver a little, and eventually I was slightly vibrating. Ugh, this is... fun. I just stared at her. Every time she would slowly turn her head towards me, our eyes would meet, and she would blush harder and hide behind her incredibly long mane.
"Umm, excuse me?" Did you hear that? It was soft. Too soft. Did somepony say something? Where was that coming from, behind me? I looked in the direction, and, wait. Is that a cottage at the edge of Everfree? How weird. And there was a pony standing just outside it.
"Umm... it's really cold outside..." Oh really? I didn't notice. Maybe because I'm FIRE?! Yeah, baby! "Um, hello? You look, um, cold, and... Um... why don't you come inside? That is if you don't mind..." What the hell??? Am I THAT turned on? Am I vibrating THAT much? Ohhhhhh damn. Anyways, Ice and I trotted inside the nice pony's cottage.
"Would you happen to have sleeping arrangements?" Ice asked.
"Ummm... I have a bed..." Wait one bed? ONE? I don't know whether to say 'let's get it on' or 'shoot. I guess I'm sleeping with this beautiful mare tonight.'
"And I have a couch... but that's it... I mean..." OK she's gonna have to shut up.
"Why don't you sleep in the bed?" Ice asked kindly.
"Um... well... see... you looked uncomfortable out there..." Duh. I was turned on beyond belief and her there? Ice? She was blushing so hard it made me even more-
"And I want you two to feel at home here... if you don't mind." This darn pony is interrupting my thoughts! Oh, well. I didn't say how she looked did I? Ok then. Here it is: This pony was a Pegasus, a yellow Pegasus at that. Her mane was pink. Wow that was... simple. You're a simple colored pony, aren’t you? Her cutie mark was three cyan butterflies with pink wings. I wonder what that stands for?
"What's your name?" I asked her.
"F-F-Fluttersh-shy." She stammered. Fluttershy? Hmm. That's nice. Fluttershy, Butterfly.
"Fluttershy, you sleep in your own bed. I'm sure that Ice here won't mind the couch." I'm tired now >yawn< can we get some rest?
"OH, no." Fluttershy didn't seem... so.... shy... anymore. "Please. You... Ice, right? Ice you can have the bed. And..." She looked at me quizzically.
"I'm Fire." I said, standing tall and proud.
"Well, then Fire. If you and Ice will have-" Yeah. She went there. So I'm gonna stop her.
"No thank you, Ice and I are not a couple." I looked at Ice to see if she would agree. And to my surprise, she almost looked kind of sad, and then she said "No, we're not a couple. But that doesn't mean you can't have the couch." I guess that means I get the floor.
"Are you sure?" Fluttershy seemed happy she wasn't sleeping on the floor tonight.
"Yes we're sure." I grinned kindly. "I'm used to sleeping on the floor. You get the couch."
Fluttershy looked pretty happy after I said that. "Yay, thank you!"
"You're welcome." I said. Then a thought occurred to me. "Hey Fluttershy, why were you awake in the first place?"
"Oh, it's... um... nothing. Now get to bed, shoo!"
Darn. Oh well. So Ice, Fluttershy and I went off to bed, Fluttershy on the couch, Ice in Fluttershy's bed, and me? I was on the floor at the foot of Fluttershy's bed. Wow, that's a lot of Fluttershy. <Sigh> Tomorrow I'm gonna see if there's a library around, and maybe learn a bit about these Elements of Harmony. Elements of Harmony... That's got a nice ring to it. Fluttershy was so kind to let two complete strangers sleep in her house. She sure showed a lot of kindness there... Kindness................. zzzzzzzz >snore< zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....
