//------------------------------// // Back home // Story: Fell from the sky // by End //------------------------------// It was a beautiful morning in Ponyville, but I couldn't see it for myself. The reason I couldn't enjoy my morning is that MY ROOMMATES WERE BUGGING ME! Seriously they would not leave me alone for a moment. It had been three full days. I was surprised that they weren't asking why I brought home a child. Apparently there was a search and rescue going on for the entire week I was gone. They were about to declare me officially dead. That was completely taken care of the moment I got back or rather after making a quick stop by Zecora's hut to remove the poison joke. Speaking of getting back. "HOW CAN YOU BE SO CALM?" The cellist screamed in my ear. Octavia was being hysterical. She was in disbelief that I was taking this so calmly. The moment I walked in the front door all Taurus broke loose. What is Tartarus anyways? I guess I'll find out later. So anyway the moment I walked in both mares looked like they'd seen a ghost. Octavia dropped her tea and Vinyl's slid down her muzzle, revealing her eyes. I was gone for a week because I was taken hostage by a group of mares. "He was gone for a week because he was foalnapped by my sister and her group," a small filly spoke up. I still have no idea how Octavia was all up in me and didn't care that I brought home a filly. "Whoa, ya mean he was raped?" Vinyl spoke up. "No, but almost" They're going to be back, I know they will. "They're going to be back again, maybe" Lilly translated. Even though it wasn't 100 percent correct, it was still the same message. You know what I going out for a walk. Lilly, it's about time you showed me how to teleport. "We're going for a walk until you calm down," Lilly said. Both of us start making our way out. "Wait a minute, who's the child?" Octavia asked finally noticing Lilly. She stared at me with suspicious eyes. It was in the middle of the afternoon with Celestia's sun hovering above us. I was with Lilly on a small hill just outside the skirts of Ponyville. We were safe from anyone seeing us. Except for Octavia, she somehow got a telescope and was spying on us with it. So, will you be able to teach me now?! "Well, you see..." Lilly said nervously to get her sentence out, "I haven't perfected it myself yet" Are you serious?! "B-but you'll still be able to teleport...just with a few side effects" Like? "You'll get dizzy after 15 times and will have the urge to throw up," she said sheepishly. Great, didn't you at least pay attention. Aren't you able to retain information better than ponies? She laughed nervously. "I didn't pay attention most of the time, because I kept sneaking out of class." Just show me "Well first off, You have to think about where you want to be. Second, you must know how far away it is. Finally, you must...re" she stopped at the last part and hesitated. Concerned on the last part I looked at her and her back at me with a nervous smile. "Let's just say this is where I didn't pay attention. But don't worry you don't need the last part to do the actual teleportation." She said with a smile. Okay, here goes I concentrate on the place and how far it is. I close my eyes. I wait for a few moments, but nothing happened. I open my eyes again in disappointment. This was a complete bust, Lilly... I then realize that I'm not outside anymore. I find myself inside Twilight's castle. I see that I'm on the edge of a pillar. I look down to see Twilight. She's sitting on her throne with a table and her friends around with her. The table has a map of all equestria. I still find it kinda funny to call them equestrians. They talk about something about going where their cutie marks are hovering above. Looks like they're going to some remote village. Well, this had nothing to do with me. Time to go. I quickly think about the hill I came from. I close my eyes and open them to see that I'm back where I started. But I start to feel slightly disoriented. "Wow, they don't call you Silent for nothing. Your teleportation was suppose to make a sound, but it didn't make any" she said all surprised No wonder Twilight and her friends didn't notice me. "Who?" Nopony We head back to Octavia and Vinyl's house. Sure enough, Octavia is there waiting for us. She's acting like she wasn't expecting us. She's prepared dinner for all of us. I starting to feel like I'm taking advantage of their hospitality. I need a job. "Silent? I've meant to ask you this earlier, but...where did you get the filly?" Octavia asked. Oh boy, now she asks. If she had just taken a moment to relax a bit earlier she would have seen Lilly right next to me. Well, I meet her after leaving Twilights castle, her sister knocked me out and dragged me to their hidden village. After escaping she wanted to tag along. I reluctantly agreed. "He was trying to escape the sex crazy mares and I came up and saved him, and we made a deal" she said to Octavia I eyes her with a glare while Octavia was holding back a laugh. Vinyl was laughing her flank off. The deal was if I take her she would teach me everything about the group of ponies called Enders. "The deal was if I save him he would have to make a herd," she said avoiding eye contact with me and had both mares in a flustered state. "Why you..." I said under my breath, but loud enough for Lilly to hear. I pounce towards her and she teleported away, but not to far. I glare at her and she gives blows a raspberry at me. I teleported behind her and grabbed her by her tail. I hear two loud gasps. I looked up to my roommates. They were both in shock while still having a bit of a blush on them. "How in the name of Celestia did you do that?" Octavia asked. Great, just my luck "I'll tell you everything," Lilly said.
