//------------------------------// // prequell // Story: Rainbowdash and The Keeper of The Door (comment driven story) // by Tik-Tok-deerpony //------------------------------// October 8, 2014, somewhere in Bristow, OK Skylers POV I was walking home from school when a weird light down an ally caught my eye. I cautiously approached the ally to see what it was. The light was a vertical beam of light about the height of a door. Wait. It was a door! I slowly push open the door and step through… 1 year later, golden oaks library, Ponyville, Equestria Rainbowdashes POV I walked into the library wondering why my friends wanted to see me. Well, I couldn’t stay for long, I had to go to work in half an hour. “Have a seat Rainbowdash.” Twilight said in a stern voice. ‘What did I do this time to make them mad?’ I thought to myself as I took a seat. “Now sugarcube, whatever you hear, just know it’s for your own good.” Apple Jack says to me. For my own good? What the hay is going on here? “What’s going on?” you ask in confusion. “We don’t want to see you anymore.” Twilight states flatly. “Wait, what? Y-You’re joking, right?” you stammer. They had to be joking. There was no reason for them not to want to see you anymore. “I’m afraid not darling. We really don’t want to see you anymore.” Rarity says. “Why?” you ask. “Because silly, we just don’t like you.” Pinky says with a giggle-snort. “We don’t like your pranks, your manners, and your attitude.” Twilight says to you matter-of-factly. “So please leave, I mean if that’s ok with you.” Fluttershy says apolitically. I didn’t need to be told again. I ran out of the library in tears. I just could not believe that my friends didn’t want to see me anymore. I ran blindly, thanks to the fact that I was crying. I do not know how long I ran, all I know is that I found myself outside of ponyville, next to a broken down wall. Exhausted, I collapsed and knew no more. At the Door, a half hour before. Skylers POV I stood before the Door, the one that brought me here that day about a year ago. Since then, the Door has sent me to many planets. I know stand here again to see which planet it will bring me to. Well, I guess I can visit one of the planets I have already been to, but what was the fun it that? You see this is how the Door works, you can either pull the lever and see where it takes you, or you can us the dial. Butt, in order to use the dial you had to know the cordnets of the planet you want to go to. So before I go to a new planet, I write down the cordnets that it randomly generates. As I pull the lever I glance at the danger meter. It tells me if I need my chainmail armor or not. Today, the meter stops on P. it looks like this world is currently at peace. I quickly write down cordnets in my notebook and stuff it in the safe I keep by the Door. Then, I take a deep breath and step through the Door. I step into a meadow. To my right, there is an apple orchard. To my left is a town. Directly in front of me is I forest. I decide to play the age old game of any, mini, miney, mo to decide which way to go. The game says I should go towards the town. I smile. It is always a treat to meet the inhabitants of a new world. You never know what you will meet. I head towards the town slowly, taking as much time to enjoy the view. It is not often that I see a world as nice looking as this one. The last five places I’ve visited was either desert, ghost woods, or underground. I have done many things on my adventures. I have fought dragons, lead armys, and even ran a small kingdom when Harold decided on a month long vacation. And let me tell you, being a king isent all that fun. They tell you that you get to do whatever you want. Nuh uh. Nowhere close. I had to sit in on a bunch of boring meetings, listen to complaining pheasants moaning about how there life sucks. The nobles where uptight and rude, and the parliament kept telling me what to do. If it weren’t for the rebellion that took place, I’m sure I would have jump out of the highest tower with a rope around my neck. As I walked, I see an old wall. I decide to make a detour and see what cool things I could find laying around it. As I got closer, I hear sniffling. It was most likely some tenderhearted girl that just got her heart broken. Good, that means I can play the kiss up and maybe have some laughs while I’m at it. What? Did you really think I was goanna be the knight in shining armor? *snort*. Yeah right, that just brings you nothing but trouble. I should know ‘cause I’ve been there, done that, and I’ve the t-shirt to prove it. “They had no right to say those things, I’m a loyal friend. Yah I may have my faults but no one’s perfect.” Darn, just some teen that had a fight with her friends. I would have normally walked away and leave it alone or just tell her to shut up, but something compelled me to be nice and help her. Raindowdash’s POV I woke up only a few minutes ago, and my face was already swollen from the tears. “They had no right to say those things, I’m a loyal friend. Yah I may have my faults but no one’s perfect.” I say out loud. And they picked the worst moment possible. I’ve just lost my house, I’m bankrupt, and I was so going to lose my job now. I was supposed to be there two ours ago! “Excuse me mam, but are you all right?” a voice says to my left. I look up to tell them to but the hey out of my business, only to find that the speaker was a human, which should be impossible since they were supposed to be the stupidest creatures on Equus. And not only that, but this one was dressed in some odd looking clothes that looked like [url=file:///C:/Users/Public/Pictures/Sample%20Pictures/uniform.jpg]this. “Take a picture, it will last longer.” The human says as he notices me staring. I decide to tell him what was bothering me. He listens intently until I was done. “Well, I’ve got a spare bedroom at my house, if you want you can stay with me until you can get a place of your own.” WHAT DO YOU DO?
