//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: Secrets of the Elements // by Mythical_Elemental //------------------------------// This chapter the spirits will talk to Mythic like this >Incendia< -Aqua- *Humus* /Ventus\ Chapter 2- First Contact, AND Not an Alien I was in a tree, somewhere in a dark and creepy forest. But to me, I only saw a woodpecker peaking at my head. I shooed it away and jumped off the branch I was on. I didn't land very well, so I hit my head on another branch and hit a rock. "Always. Do I always have this bad luck." I said getting up. I looked at the ground and found that weird staff from the present sent to me. I picked it up and spun it in my hand. I thought it would be great to have this as a revolver to make sure to keep whatever in this forest away. I didn't expect it to change into the revolver however. It was light and everything. I thought it might not be wise to have a gun in the forest at this moment so I made it a fedora. So I put the fedora on, which was black, and started walking. After 3 minutes I heard growling from a bush and I looked over to see yellow eyes staring at me. Thre wolves jumped out of the bush and I made the fedora back into a staff to have training in the way of the staff. The middle wolf that seemed to be bigger than the rest leaped at me, so I stuck the end of my staff in his mouth and threw him into a tree. The wolf somehow caught fire when it hit the tree and it burned to a crisp. The other wolves moved around me in a circle, so I prepared to counter what ever attack they throw at me. They both jumped at me so I spn with the staff hitting both of the wolves faces, which still made the wolves catch fire. "So this staff makes whatever I attack catch fire." I asked to no one in particular. > That is my damn Enchantment to the staff Idiot! Be Grateful I did that!< I heard Incendias voice in my head say. -Careful Incendia. We don't want him to angry at us and no longer trust us.-I sighed and started to ignore the argument after Aqua talked. I started to walk out of the forest but I heard what sounds like hooves coming so I looked for a place to hide. All I saw were trees and bushes. So I jumped onto a tree branch and waited to see what was coming. But I didn't expect a Yellow pegasus with a pink mane with three butterflies on her behind. So I waited and watched the pegasus. That is until the same woodpecker from earlier pecked at my head and I fell out of the tree into a bush that was on a slope right infront of the pegasus. The last thing I heard before blacking out was a epp and the pegasus speeding to me to help. ------28 Minutes Later------ I woke up in a nice looking cottage interior. And how I know it was a cottage, I know it is. *No you don't Mythic. We told you while you were in your comatose state.* Humus said. Alright and I saw a hummingbirds, squirrels and many others I couldn't name right off the bat. I started to get up from the bed I was in and I felt my right side in pain. I continued since this was a very normal pain but I still groaned which got the same yellow pegasus from earlier, to come to me. "Are you alright, if you don't mind me asking?" I heard her and barely near the end and I see a purple unicorn walk in. The purple unicorn had a dark purple mane with some lighter purple streaks on a part of her mane. Her eyes were violet and I heard her say, "Fluttershy, what is that?" The pony sounds like a female and she was pointing at me. I decided to keep quiet and then 'Fluttershy' talked again, "I don't know Twilight." I landed back down on the bed after Twilight and I was stared at for a second and she continued, "I saw him when I was walking to check on the frogs at Froggy Bottom Bog. It feel out of a tree and rolled infront of me." "I don't like that woodpecker." I mumbled which none of the mares noticed. "So it was in a tree and it fell. How?" Twilight asked. "It was a woodpecker which doesn't like me." I said and shut my mouth fast as I can and the mares looked straight at me with shocked faces. "You can talk, how can you speak Equestrian?" Twilight asked while Fluttershy backed up a bit. "Where I come from.... It is normal to talk like this in English...." I said keeping an eye on Fluttershy sad a bit from what I made her do by talking. "How did you end up in the Everfree forest though... if you don't mind me asking." Fluttershy asked timidly behind Twilight. "Let's see, Magic would be best suited to say. And let me tell you this, don't end up infront of a pack of three wooden wolves unless you had a staff or another weapon." I said causually which made Fluttershy more scared and I face-palmed noticing what I said. "I didn't want to them, but my enchanted staff made them catch fire." It didn't help at all. "You defeated three timberwolves with a enchanted staff. How did you even get that staffin the first place?" Twilight asked. "I would say a gift but I need to ask Fluttershy one thing. Have you seen my hat?" Fluttershy pointed to my black fedora on the door and I managed to practice some wind magic which made a wind blow the hat off the door and into my hand. "How did you do that!?" Twilight sked quite loudly. "Ummm... magic? Well this is the enchanted staff" I motioned my hat and made it change into my staff. "It can change into whatever I think it to be, as far as I know." I shifted it back to my hat and placed it on the bed-side table. "Can I study the staff? And what are you?" "Alright and I am a human." I said getting up. /Mythic, You need to transform into a pony and get used to the land of Equestria.\ Ventus said. *And go to school since it would help you faster as well.* Humus said. And not long after I somehow changed into a pony form and I hit the ground and I couldn't see straight and I saw black in the corner of my eyes and I passed out again.
