Untold Chronicles
Chapter 2, Informal Greetings
3 hours later
Twilight had now moved what she guessed to be an unconscious human to the bedroom that specialty made for bigger ponies like Celestia.
“It seems he would be a bit small for it, but I guess it’s better than him being too big.” Twilight mused as she levitated the covers over him.
*knock* *knock*
Twilight turns her head to the direction of the front door and thought, squealing in glee.
“Ah, that must be Celestia, that means she got the message I sent before it, or more likely it is a he, woke up.” Being unsure of the creature's species made her unconfident to its gender.
Twilight trotted over to the stairs to greet the arriving guest, once she had gotten to the stairs Spike had just opened the door to be greeted by the majestic Princess Celestia and two guards beside her. Twilight teleported a few feet in front of the door, bowing in the royal greeting, showing her respect for her beloved teacher. Celestia showed the same respect and bowed down to Twilight followed by a question.
“Hello Twilight it is a pleasure to see you. So, where is this human you talked about so strongly about in your letter?” Celestia asked with her usual calm and comforting voice.
“Oh.. he, or it, is upstairs in the guest room.”
“It... I thought you were sure that it was a human?” asked Celestia carrying the slightest hint of a puzzled look.
“It does looks like one of them for the most part, but shortly after I sent that letter it woke up and found a portal, most likely the one that brought it here by what I can guess. It said that the other side was where it’s home was, but the other side looked weird.” Twilight said showing a confused look on her face as she remembered it.
“How so?”
“Well, there was no outline surrounding anything and and there seemed to be more texture and shadow to it.”
Celestia stood there, slowly raising an eyebrow in the strongest display of thought Twilight had ever seen from her.
“I would like to see this creature.”
“It would be my pleasure,” Twilight said leading the her mentor up the stairs to what she once thought was a human.
Twilight opened the door letting Celestia in first as she followed closely behind, shutting the door on her way in. Taking a few steps in, Celestia saw the face of the creature then was stuttered a bit as she took steps closer. It did look a lot like the humans on the other side of the mirror, but had some different features. The eyes seemed to be smaller and the hair had more separations then she usually sees. On closer inspection she also saw that the texture was more detailed. She based this on her little knowledge of the humans on the other side of the mirror. There still was a outline around it, but it seemed that the creature had been changed to have its appearance work with the outer lines. Celestia then began to think of what the creature would look like in its own more detailed world. She was deep in thought with a hint of confusion spread across her face. Her expression changed to a look of great concerned as she remembered something.
“It is a human, a boy to be a matter of fact, bu-” Interrupted by a knocking at the door to the room followed by a guarded talking on the other side.
“Princess Celestia, your sister requires your assistance.” The guard said with an authoritative voice, but still sounding winded though he was trying to hide it.
“*sigh* I must go Twilight, and don't be afraid to inform me if he does something threatening towards anypony.” Celestia said while still looking at the unconscious human as she trotted out of the room.
As Celestia went through the front door, Twilight kindly gave a wave to her and closed the door behind her. Twilight stood at there for a bit as she thought to herself.
“Why would Celestia want me to ask for help, and how did she know what he is?”
“She must still be worried for me and I guess that she does know all.” Twilight thought as she smiled and trotted away from the door.
12 hours later
It had been a long night since Twilight had only gotten about four hours of sleep. This was because she had watched the human for several hours after Celestia left just in case he woke up.
*knock* *knock*
This was from the front door again but this time Twilight was not expecting anypony to come over, so how was it? Twilight quickly got out of bed and trotted to the door to investigate who it was with a confusion look on her face. As she opened the door she hears familiar voices talking to each other. As she had opened the door, Twilight was granted by a rambunctious pink pony tackling at a speed that was hard to keep track of.
“Ohhh Twilight why was Celestia here yesterday? are you going somewhere? ow ow are we going to have a party? I can-.” Pinkies rambling was stopped by Twilight and the four other ponies.
“PINKYYYYYYYYYYYY!!”
“Let Twilight at least tell us what happened.” Applejack said, stepping out of the crowd of five ponies that had just walked through the doorway.
Pinky then got off of Twilight letting her get up and greet the five ponies with a simple “Hi girls”.
“Well, why was she here?” Pinky asked being more comprehensible this time.
“hmmm...” Twilight sounded as she brought her to below her mouth and started scratching her jaw.
“I think, it would be easier just to show you why Celestia was here.” Twilight said as she started to trot over to the stairs leading to the second floor.
All the others looked a bit confused on why she was going to show something and not just tell them, but they followed her anyway. As they walked to the guest room, Rainbow Dash saw the floating mailbox and gave it a confused look. She quickly shook it off thinking that it was some sort of magic junk. Once they got to the door to the guest room, Twilight stopped, to say something.
“OK, this morning I found this laying on my table... and don’t freak out, OK”Twilight said as she opened the door to the guest room.
All the ponies looked in the room to investigate what their friend was talking about. They saw the unconscious creature still on the bed, laying there.
Twilights five friends were all now showing confusion on their faces. They had not seen anything like it, do to there not being anything like it in Equestria, or anywhere that they have been.
“Celestia said that he is a human and I was guessing he was but I was not sure about but I will trust her about this.”Twilight said confidently.
“Oh my, this just can’t do” Rarity said mused, poking at the, in places ripped jacket, that the unconscious human was wearing.
Rarity began to tug at the sleeve of the jacket, nearly ripping it more.
“Aaa? Rarity, what are you doing?” Applejack said with a raised hoof, giving the ashen white colored mare a concerned look.
Rarity had not been confused or nervous, in fact she didn’t even know what to feel about this. Seeing the cloths on it, tho made her a bit excited to make something new, something no pony has ever made before. But what this creature was wearing, seemed to be torn and needed to be replaced.
“Oh honestly you see the rips and tears on its umm? jacket don't you?”Rarity said while shooting a small glare and Applejack
“I see character.” Applejack said and giving the same glare back at Rarity.
They stood, just holding their glares at each other, until Applejack broke the silence.
“Rarity.. You know what, I don’t want to deal with you right now, so, whatever.” Applejack then turned her head showing a face that lazily said whatever.
Rarity continued to find out, how remove the jacket, as Applejack seemed to get lost in a thought. Pinky and Rainbow Dash showed the same confused face and tilting of their heads, as they both stared at this less hair than they normally see on most creatures.. Fluttershy was so joyful to see this new animal that she had never seen before, which left her in a state of complete excitement as she stared at him. Twilight stared at all the other ponies confused, do to the unexpected reactions that they gave to this.
“Ahh Haa! So, that is how it comes off!” Rarity said, as she used her magic to pull down on the zipper to open the jacket.
No pony even caring to watch, as Rarity used her magic on the humans arms, to get them out of the sleeves. He had been laying on the jacket forcing Rarity, to make him sit upright, to pull the jacket off of him. Not caring, Rarity let his head fall back and hit his head on the bed frame. He groaned and begun to move looked as if he was about to wake up from a deep sleep.
“OW, my head!” It felt like something big hit mr on the back of my head.
I grounded as I brought hand up rud on the spot that was hurting.I opened my eyes to bright light, which forced my to close them again and blink rapidly to try and get my eyes used to the light. As my vision started to come back into focus, I saw seven colorful blobs. Purple, pink, blue, orange, yellow, a grayish white, and green. The Green one seemed to be in the air and was about half the size as the other ones. My eyes started to become more clear as I recognized the seven blooms as six ponies and a camo jacket. I recognized them one by one. Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, and Rarity with the camo jacket above a garbage bin.
“Oh hey I’m still here and it’s th-” I stopped, do to seeing my favorite jacket in the garbage bin.
I quickly sprung out of bed to grab my jacket, grabbing it out of the bin so it didn’t get too dirty. I immediately started to brush off possible dirt on my jacket with my hand positently .
“Oww come on, why?!?” I said as I inspected my jacket for dirt and gunk.
“You like that worn outfit?” Rarity said as she pointed accusingly at the jacket with her hoof
“It has character, doesn't it?” I defended.
Applejack giggled in response, covering her mouth with on hoof.
“What's so fun?” I mellowly asked her
Applejack giggled with closed eyes, still covering her mouth with one hoof before responding.
“I said the same thing about your jacket.” she said before giggling some more.
Before I could even give a little laugh, I was confronted by Fluttershy.
“I've never seen anything like you and you can talk, oh this is great. I want to know everything about you.” Fluttershy said with her excited, subtle, clear voice.
I then remembered the mailbox and stood up to see if there was a different letter in it.
“I would love to talk and I guess we can later, but right now I need to check something.” Giving her a small smile in response, as I started to go to the mailbox to check it quickly.
Fluttershy flew close behind followed by the other ponies which left the room in a quick walk. Once I got to the mailbox I opened it and saw an envelope that had words on it in big black letters.
