//------------------------------// // Welcome to Ponyvile // Story: The Hunt for Gems // by Magix with Lex //------------------------------// Tom and Jack fell out of the portal rolling, and having there bags fall off and then stopping on the floor. "Ow that hurt" Jack said as he rubbed his head. "You can say that again" Tom said as he started to get up. "Hmm I don't feel any different" Jack said as he looked at his hands. "See I told you we won't turn to ponies" Tom said as he got up. "I see" Jack said as he got up as well. "This was easy so hopefully the rest will be" Tom said. "It mostly likely won't" Jack said. "You can't really say tha- AH!" Tom said as he tripped over a book and hit into a bookshelf. "Sure it will" Jack said between giggles. "Ow" Tom said. "I'll get you out buddy" Jack said as he started to get the books off of Tom. After Jack got Tom out from the books Jack looked at the book Tom tripped on. "Hmm what's this?" Jack asked himself out loud. "What's what?" Tom asked as he looked over Jack's shoulder. "This is a book of there pony history" Jack said as he sat down. "Say what?" Tom said as he sat down next to him. Jack opened the book and starting flipping threw it. "Nightmare Moon,Princess Celestia,Starswarl so many names and so many monsters" Jack said. "You can say that again" Tom said as he took the book from Jack. "Discord,Sombra,Queen Chrysails, wow this is awesome I could read this for hours" Tom said as he flipped threw pages. "Well we can't. We got work to do remember?" Jack said as he got up. "Your right lets get going" Tom said as he put the book on the bookshelf. "Now I know we won't be as weird if we go in a town" Jack said as he got his stuff and picked up his bag. "Hopefully they don't try to fight us" Tom said as he did the same. "Yeah but we should go" Jack said. "Alright come on" Tom said. As they both started to the door they both heard a noise behind them. They both looked and there was a Pony and a little green Dragon. They both ran out of the place they were in and headed to somewhere random in Ponyvile. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "I hope they didn't see us" Jack said between breathes. "Yeah me too" Tom said between breathes. Tom looked around to see tons of ponies looking at them some worried,some scared, some running and screaming. "Hello?" Tom said trying not to scare them. "I wonder if they can to humans" Jack said. "Yeah I wonder that too" Tom said. "WELCOME TO PONYVILE!" A pink pony said scaring Tom and Jack. "WOAH!" Jack shouted as he almost fell back. -A Musical number later- "So anyway I'm Pinkie Pie" Pinkie Pie said giggling. "I'm Tom and this is Jack" Tom said. "Nice to meet you" Jack said. "So where are we anyway?" Tom asked. Your in Ponyvile silly Pinkie Pie said. "But I haven't seen a creature like you before what are you?" Pinkie Pie said. "We are Humans" Jack said. "Never heard of them" Pinkie Pie said as she started to bounce away. "Wait since we are new here can you show us around?" Tom asked. "Sure follow me I'll show you both everything"! Pinkie Pie said bouncing off. "We'll start looking for the gems and stuff later" Tom whispered. "Got it" Jack whispered back. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Come on or we will be late" Pinkie Pie said as she bounced towards Sugar Cube Corner. "Yeah yeah" Tom said following behind. "We are here!" Pinkie Pie said as she opened the door. "Where is here?" Jack asked. "Sugar Cube Corner" Pinkie Pie said as they all walked in. "Time to have your welcome to Ponyvile party!" Pinkie Pie shouted as the lights turned on. "Welcome to Ponyvile!" Many ponies shouted. "Wow what a welcome" Jack said. "Wow so tall and straight" a Filly said looking up at Jack. Jack rubbed the filly's head then sat down near the counter. "Well its nice to meet somepony new" a orange Pony with a hat said. "You sound like somebody I know" Tom said. "What do y'all mean?" the orange Pony asked. "You sound like someone I know named Applejack" Tom said. "But my name is Ap-" the orange Pony was cut off by somepony. "AJ, Twi needs you" a rainbow Pony said as matted the orange Pony on the head. "I'll be right back" the orange Pony said as she followed the rainbow Pony . Tom came and sat next to Jack. "Did you start thinking about how we are going to beat a Dragon?" Jack asked. "Easy we stab, shoot and stuff, we will kill it sooner or later" Tom answered. "I wish there was in easy way" Jack said. "Maybe there is a place where of gems around here" Tom said. "Well there is" Pinkie Pie said as she stopped in front of them. "Cupcakes?" Pinkie Pie asked as she put her head down which she had a tray of cupcakes on it. "Sure" Tom and Jack said as they took a few. "So you say something about a easier way to get Gems" Tom said. "There is if you want to go to the Diamond Dog's Cave" Pinkie Pie said. "Diamond Dogs?" Jack asked. Yes Diamond Dogs I can show you the way tomorrow Pinkie Pie answered. "But we need to go tonight" Tom said. "Well alright I'll let Mrs.Cake take over the party" Pinkie Pie said as she jumped over to Mrs.Cake. "Well looks like we got our wish"Tom said after eating a cupcake. "True" Jack said after eating his cupcakes. "Alright lets long we should be there in the morning" Pinkie Pie said. "Alright" Tom said. Tom and Jack followed Pinkie Pie out of Sugar Cube Corner,now on the way to the Diamond Dog Cave. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "We're here" Pinkie Pie said as she moved the leaves out of the way. "Finally" Tom said as he looked to the raising sun. "We should of took the short way Pinkie Pie not the long way" Jack said. "Yeah I know but I wanted to go on adventure with both of you" Pinkie Pie said between giggles. "Well at least we are here thanks Pinkie Pie" Tom said rubbing Pinkie's head.
