Chapter 2

"So, what now?" Fred asked.
"We go over there to the town." I suggested.
"I think we should identify our species so the people reading our adventures aren't wondering and spam the comment section asking what kind of ponies we are." Luke said.
"What do you mean 'reading' are you going to right this into a story?" Jodi asked.
"Yes, of course I am, why wouldn't I? This would make a great story and would definitely pass my creative writing class!" Luke explained.
"So did you actually have to say that line about our readers understanding, couldn't you have just made it up?"
"I want my story to be non-fiction though."
"Ok then. You know what, I'll make one too."
"So, it looks like Jodi and Joe are both pegasi."
"Yes, and Luke, you're a unicorn." I said.
"Score!" he shouted as he poked his horn with his hoof.
"So what am I?" Fred asked.
"You're an Earth Pony." I answered.
"So, what do I get? Am I like super strong or can run fast or something?"
"Actually, you get nothing." I did my best not to laugh at his misfortune, but I'm pretty sure he heard me.
Fred's eye started twitching. "Are you serious?"
"Yes."
"So you guys get these cool powers like flight and whatever the horn does, and I get nothing?"
"Yeah pretty much."
"Another reason why I hate My Little Pony."
"Yo, what are you guys doing so far away from town?" some pony called down from the clouds.
I looked up and squinted, the sun was shining in my face and whoever it was was pretty far away.
"So you gonna tell me or what?" they asked.
I looked over to Jodi and she shrugged as well as a pony could. I looked at Luke and he did the same. I figured Fred was too angry to really do anything for a while.
"Well?" they called out after a few more seconds.
"Who are you?" I shouted up at the sky.
"I'm Rainbow Dash, now who are you and why are you here?" she asked as she flew down from the sky.
"Well, I'm Joe and these are my friends Jodi, Luke, and Fred, and we're kind of, lost." I explained.
"Pfft. You guys tourists or something?"
"Sure."
"So, you guys need directions or something?"
"Yeah, wheres the nearest town?"
"Well, Ponyville is over there somewhere." Rainbow Dash pointed with a hoof towards a nearly invisible village in the distance.
"Thanks Rainbow Dash."
"Anything else?"
"No, we're good, right guys?" Everyone nodded except Fred, who was crying into his hooves as far as I could tell. We headed toward the small village that Rainbow Dash pointed to.
"Bye Rainbow Dash." Jodi called out shortly after we walked away.
"Bye." Rainbow Dash called back.
When we got to the town, it was roughly 9 PM. Few ponies were still walking around the town, most of them were probably getting ready for bed.
"So, what are we going to do now?" Fred asked, apparently he got over not being as awesome as the rest of us.
"Well, I guess we find somewhere to sleep." Luke suggested.
"That's probably the smartest idea." Jodi said.
"But, where?" I asked.
"I don't know about you guys, but I'm gonna make my own place to sleep." Luke's horn glowed and a door appeared. He went through, I looked in and it was somehow a small house for one that took the space of a door.
"Wow, that's pretty cool magic, when did you learn that?" I asked him.
"Honestly I have no clue." he said as he lied down on the bed in the magical room.
"Where will we go to sleep?" Jodi asked.
"Well, we are pegasi, so we could sleep on the clouds." I said.
"Sure, why not." Jodi and I flew up into the sky and went to sleep on two clouds that were floating above us.
"Where am I going to sleep?" Fred asked me right before I took off.
"I don't know, good luck dude." I responded.
"Yo Luke, can I sleep in there with you?" Fred asked.
"No man, that would just be awkward." Luke said.
"What, why would it be awkward?"
"Two guys, sleeping together."
"I'll use a different bed."
"I only have one."
"Oh."
"Well, good luck." Luke used his magic to move his door onto the side of a building, so it looked normal.
Fred looked around, most likely wondering where he was going to sleep. I laughed at him before resting my head down onto the cloud and falling asleep.
