//------------------------------// // Chapter 5 // Story: An interesting person // by pvzMLP //------------------------------// Joey was looking out through the window of the chariot admiring Equestrias beautiful forests, large grass plains and the glittering lakes and rivers. Twilight on the other hand was just so curious as to how this young child could act so calm in this situation. 'It's almost as if he planned for such an event.' She thought to herself. A couple minutes later Joey sat back down with a happy expression on his face. He then turned to face Twilight. "Hey, Twilight?" Twilight shook the cobwebs from her head and turned to face Joey. "Yes?" "Do you think the townsfolk will accept me?" Twilight tilted her head to the side at that question. "Why do you ask?" He sighed on looked down. "It's just the only other nonpony species that has been accepted was Zecora and even so they still were frightened when she appeared in Ponyville." He then looked even more sad. "So what if they don't accept me as easily?" Twilight looked at him with a sad look before placing a hand on his shoulder making him turn his head. "Joey, if you know all about my adventures in Ponyville then you'll understand that they'll accept you. The moment you see Pinkie I bet she'll immediately throw you a welcome to Ponyville party." He then looked up at her with a smile before surprising her with a hug. "Thanks Twilight." Twilight then closed her arms around him. "You're welcome Joey." A thought then suddenly struck Joey in the head. He then pulled away from the hug. "Hey Twilight, what's the date?" He asked. "It's October 28th." Joey then put a hand to his chin a puzzled look on his face. "What's wrong?" Twilight asked. "It was near the end of August on Earth so why is it suddenly October?" Before they could think more about that the chariot then came to halt. "We must be in Ponyville." She then opened the door stepping out in front of her home. She turned around seeing Joey climbing out his tablet in his left arm. He then looked up at the Crystal castle Twilight now lives in while the chariot flew away to Canterlot. Twilight giggled at the look on his face. "Don't stare at it too long or the reflection of the sun will blind you." She told before walking towards the front door of her castle Joey running up to her. The first thing she noticed was that the lights were off which could only mean one thing. "SUPRISE!!" The lights turned on revealing the castle to be decorated with balloons, streamers and tables with various sweets and Apple foods on them. The ponies that were there were the rest of the mane six, Nyx and the crusaders and a baby Dragon Spike. Twilight then crossed her arms with an amused look on her face. "Seriously? All I did was to to Canterlot for not even a day!" Pinkie then bounced up in front of Twilight. "So? Doesn't mean we can't party!" She then appeared where she yelled suprise Applejack stepping forward. "So mind tellin us happened in Canterlot?" She asked with her southern accent. "Rainbow only told us some of what happened and that something went wrong with spell." Twilight then looked a little nervous. "Yeah, we kind of have a new guest in Ponyville and Pinkie do not throw him a party just yet." She told her friend who was about to start running to find the new Pony. "I should also let you know that he isn't......a pony. So please don't freak out. I'd like you all to meet..." She then stepped aside revealing the young boy who waved nervously. "Joey Dixon."
