Chapter 11: The walk home
The warmth of the sun and glem of the light was brighter than most days here in Ponyville it was a hotter than most days it was almost at a recored high. The pegasus ponies had called a meeting early this month telling everypony in town they where going to have to increase the sunshine this month to help get some of the plant life to regrow around the edges of the town and forest, seeing as how a few weeks ago the pegasus ponies had a little mix up that happened. They where to move the rain water over just the forset but they let the rain water fall in the wrong place. They made the rain wawter fall over Ponyvilly with was like a flash flood, most of the ponies had to block of there homes to keep water from getting into there houses but after a few weeks of water laying around most of the ponies where tired of the jokes from the other town's saying things like this.* ( Hey you see Ponyville? looks like there seaponies now cause there all wet.) Those jokes got old really fast but the pegasus ponies made sure they fixed it up making everything right again.
Everything right meaning they let the sun stay out for a few weeks till all the water has dryed up and gone from everyponies house which after the fact was good to see ponies outside there homes again. Now a surprising new problem has occurred its unbearably humid outside it was like walking into a oven on most days but if you got lucky sometimes there would be a cloud or two floting around the sky thank's to the local pegasus ponies that helpped around the town. Sadly one of the pegasus ponies that helped around the town was a little lazy, and using the word lazy is not saying much that one pony was a slacker she was more a go with the flow type of pony how would rather chill on a cloud than get her job done. beside the fact she is a will know pony around town everypony know's who she is, but I guess that is because you can't miss her seeing as she stands out like a donkey in a fasion show.
Her name is Rainbow Dash, a Pegasus pony who responsible for maintaining the weather and clearing the skies in Ponyville. You could spot her from a mile away with her rainbow shade mane she has but even if you would spot her you would have move your eyes really fast to keep up with this speedy pony. Dawn had heard nothiing really of that said pony ever in his life nothing really made it's way up to Canterlot from such a small little town such as Ponyville if it was anything it was just about the apple harvest that happend and who was going down there to pick them up and bring them back. Like you should know already there was lines and lines of ponies wanting to head down to a place called Ponyville all these high class, mane in a knot ponies would just die if they where picked for he task.
One day a few summers ago a very close friend of mine was picked for the task with after hearing that it she gave a look as if she was going to fallout right on the spot her face was priceless it was like nothing you have never seen in your life she stood there in shock as if it was sometype of sick twisted joke that I had pulled on her. I was ordered to tell her which Luna thought that would help ease the blow on her but it really didn't it just got my yelled at a lot from her. Fleur de lis was her name or just Fleur as she told me to call her she was if you could say my best friend there in Canterlot she was one of the first ponies I meet there that was not crazy.
I mean she can be a little self centered at times but you just have to pick around that and she will lighten up on you me and her always hanged out after my training with Luna was done or if I got a free day which did not happen alot, but when we hanged out she got one of my other close friends to tag along with her. Octavia was her name she was a a high class pony as well but not really she did not like living in Canterlot but she enjoyed what she was able to do while living here, she worked at the castle where I stayed till I moved out. She plays the cello with she has studyed for her whole life she is really good every time she showed up at the castle I always tryed my best to get away from my teacher Luna just to hear her music she makes, it was like food for my ear's as she played it warmed my heart, till Teacher found me which never ended well.
Those two Octavia and Fleur I miss them so much, that was one of the things that made me think again about leaving Canterlot when I left I did not even get the chance to tell them both where I was going or share a deep hidden feelings I had for one of them. My heart was heavy but I had to leave that was my mission a test or both body and mind leaving them was one of the hardest things I had to do in my life, leaving my two only friends and not even letting them know thats the only thing that made me sad but before I left Luna told me she would take care of both of them, which I was not sure what she meant when she said that knowing Luna she would use them some way or some how.
With a outstanding view of the groud below them Dawn knows he is flying on borrowed time he was a bit late for the drop of with Rarity how he told early that day he would get her back home on time. That thought was sitting in the back of his mind on the trip home what would she think, I bet she is worried about her sister thinking where in the wolrd could she be I mean shcool let out 2min's ago and Sweetie belle is not no where near her home. Dawn sighed a bit letting out some of the air he was holding in his mouth as he started to fap his wings less rapidy to lower his speed almost to a complete stop, Dawn' s feet began to drag along the group as where his two front hoofs dropped on the groud one after another as he began to walk.
The Cutie mark crusaders who where enjoying the free airfare this was the one of the best ways they have ever gotten home and one of the quickest. Fun was one of the words that made its way into there minds they where a little sad seeing as Dawn had almost came to a full stop and was moving as fast as a slug. Sweetie belle started to look around left,right,up, and down she noticed that other poines where passing them on the road it, she gave a low tone mutter, where she than walked up his neck and than gradded his ears where she jumped still holding his ears so she could look at him in his face.* ( Dawn!!!!! Whats the matter with you.) Dawn shouted in a high pitch from the pain of Sweetie belle pulling his ears it felt as if his ears where going to get pulled off as a tear almost formed on his face but he held it back he looked at the filly again with the tears all hidden alway he said.* (Its nothing Sweetie belle just have a few things on my mind you know .)
Sweetie belle looked at the lighty colored black alicorn, where she began to swing on his ears she was thinking about what Dawn said as she looked over to Applebloom, as if they where talking to each other without saying anything. Applebloom who was laying on Dawn's back did the same thing Sweete belle just did she jumping and grabbing onto Sweetie belle's tail which caused the weight on Dawn's ears to become even more painful he let out a loud cry.* (Oh the pain you guys are so heavy.) Applebloom who was looking up at Dawn she gave him a look at she has given him before at the school, it was as if she was trying to read his mind.
Applebloom was just stairing at Dawn as he was looking back at her, he just blinked a few times as he started to quick up his speed a little. He saw all the other ponie passing him by even a very old stallion that looked like he was hundred years old passed them. Dawn shock his head rapidy back and front as if he did not want to hear the too young ponies rant at him so he felt that he should give them all a little push to get them off his back or ears. Dawn lowerd his head down to the ground and his hoof bent onto the ground as well when his keens where touching the dirt he gave a powerful pull upward that caused the too fillys to land right on his back, Sweetie belle went flying into Scootaloo hitting her right on her head, Sweetie belle's horn hit Scootaloo hard on her head which caused her to let out a cry mid impact as where the too fillys where still hurt a thrid and last Applebloom came crashing down into the filly pill.*
Dawn than turned around and looked at the three fillys that where on the ground they seemed to enjoy falling onto the ground, as they where fighting to get back onto there hoof's Sweetie belle called out at Dawn again yelling at him, she wanted to know what was the matter with him.* (So are you going to tell us or just keep on playing dumb, even though where filly's dose not mean we where born yesterday.) Dawn gave a fake smile hoping it would stop the little filly from asking all those questions to him, not as if he did not wanna answer them but he did not know really how to answer them.
Dawn looked at the still yelling Sweetie belle and than to the other too filly's that where still making there way back to there hoofs from the fall to the ground,as he took a deep inhale of air and than let it out a second later, as he looked to the sky he watched the clouds move peacefully as he noticed a few birds flying in the air as well it catches his eye seeing as birds where kinda rare in Canterlot most of the time if you wanted to see wild life you would have to make your way to the forest edge by the city which most ponies never really did but training with Luna, Dawn had some times where he got to go out and see some of the wild life but most of the times it was reading old books in the Canterlot library which Luna thought it would help Dawn with his magic if he understood where magic came from, but that only put him to sleep.
As Dawn is lost in his thought's he hears a sound in the back of his mind as he snaps out of his day dream he notices that Sweetie belle was dragging Dawn by his tail along the dirt road by the looks of it they have gotten very far. He remembers this place it was the middle of the town almost the same place where he started from a few days ago. Just than Sweetie belle let go of Dawn's tail as it dropped onto the dirt ground, as where Applebloom walked in front of Dawn she said.* ( will guys I guess this is where we split up I gotta be gettin on home before Applejack blows a fuse, It was nice meeting you today Mr.Dawn.) Dawn gave a odd look at Applebloom as he said.* ( Heya I'm no Mr. I'm not old only old ponies are Mr. you know and I'v talked with your sister before i'm sure she wont blow a fuse on yah cause that seems like it would hurt, I bet she is going to be happy to see yah.)
Applebloom laughs at Dawn's little joke in there, as she starts to make her way up the hill in dictation of her farm house, as she was almost out of sight Dawn flew up into the air just a bit and called out to Applebloom just before she started to head down the hill.* (Heya remember what we talked about never give up ok? And I want a rematch one day alright.) Applebloom shouted from where she was her voice was able to make it all the way down to where Sweetie belle and Scootaloo where standing, she said.* (Alright I wont and best of luck talking with yah friends.) Dawn looked shocked when he heard what she said, he was thinking how could she have knew what he was thinking about as he looked down at Sweetie belle who was smiling at him.
Sweetie belle grabbed Dawn as he landed back on the grounded as she pulled him.*( Come on where almost there I can see my house from here.) The three ponies where running as fast as they could right now till they came upon Sweetie belle's house the Carousel Boutique the place where everypony here in Ponyville comes to get a dress made, it looked amazing from the outside as Dawn was looking at the door. Sweetie belle gave Dawn a kick to his back leg.* ( So are you just going to look at the door or are you going to knock on it and let my sister know we are back?) Dawn reached his hoof out and gave a light knock on the door and again a other knock that was even lighter than the first one. Sweetie belle and Scootaloo gave a funny look at Dawn as they both said.* ( What kinda knock was that?) Both of them where shaking there heads is if they was the worse thing they have ever seen in there days.
Scootaloo than walked next to Dawn as she pushed him out of the way. ( Now watch as a pro shows you how to knock on a door.) Sweetie belle than stepped up to the door as she reached her hoof out she pulled her hoof back over her head and slammed her hoof on the door again and again each time was harder than the last. As where you could hear inside a loud crash sounding like dishes falling on the grounded, than you heard nothing not a sound it was quite, the door began to open showing a angry Rarity she looked at Sweetie belle and yelled at her.* (How many times must I tell you not to knock my door like that.) Sweetie belle just walked right passed her and dropped her bag on the floor.( And what do you mean your door it is everyponies door i'm sure the door dose not belong to just you.)
Rarity was turning a bright red shade you could tell she was really mad but from the looks of it and the house Sweetie belle was not the reason she was made it seems as if she was working on something all day from the looks of it.* Dawn walked over next to Rarity where he began to ask her a question.* ( So it looks like you where working all day on what may I ask was you making a dress, or something?) Rarity looked back at Dawn and gave a smile as she said.* ( Oh I almost forgot thank you for taking Sweetie belle to school today and yes it is an order I must get done by the end of this week cause the pony that ordered it will be coming down here to pick it up and it must be ready soon, she is coming all the way from Canterlot to get this so that's why I could not really take her myself.)
Dawn picked up on the word Rarity said..Canterlot.* (A Canterlot pony nice I bet you was happy to see that your shop name can make it all the way up there, and I know a lot of a few ponies up there who is the order for anyway?)
Rarity walked over by her desk and picked up a note with the buyers name on it as she began to read out the name.*
(It's somepony called Fleur de lis.) Dawn just stood there in shock.* (Fleeeur...)
