//------------------------------// // ch:2 ponys? // Story: Wolfy Of The Everfree // by Aiovas //------------------------------// Hello everypony sorry for the wait I have ALOT of stuff going on in school and I haven't really been able to get to work on my story for a while, plus I owed somepony and I needed to repay them. I getting some help for my story and I will be looking forward to writing for you guys some more. please comment The next day I awoke tied to the same damn tree. I said to myself "What the hell did that purple creature do to me. WAIT what the hell!" Out of nowhere an apple was flying at me. I instinctively dodged it. I was wide awake now and saw the striped creature standing there tossing another one around in the air. She spoke "How do you do, I brought some fruit for you" she than tossed me another on the ground and I picked it up. I replied "I’m kind of shaken up a bit right now. Thank for nearly knocking me out again" and chomped down on the apple she gave me. I then realized while in the middle of chewing that I understood her and choked on the fruit. After I spat it up I shouted “How the hell can I understand you?" She gave a meek grin and replied “I see that it worked real well, that magical power of Twilight's spell." "Twilight?" I replied “Ooooohhhhh! That purple one you mean right?" She nodded and said "I know you are surprised you mutt, but what were you doing in my hut?" "Too be honest I was just really curious when I spotted you a couple weeks ago and decided that I wanted to know a bit about you. So while you were gone I sort of...." I stopped for a moment to reflect. “When in to your home. I didn't mean any harm; really I was just curious that's all. I mean really you have allot of stuff I have never seen before like the lights that you can put on at any time of day, The bark that can allow entrance and exit for you but prove to be quit a capable trap for enemies that intrude on your domain. Good job by the way you even caught me. Oh! And those glass thing you have hanging around that have different colored liquids in them they are really pretty." I then remembered the heads that I saw on the walls. I swallowed hard and said " I also liked your...." I stuttered a bit"...your heads that you have on your walls. You must be some sort of fighters to take the heads of timber wolfs and carve them into decorations." I tried to make eye contact with her, but I was too scare. She giggled and said "That is not true, do I look like a killer to you?" I looked back at her for a while. She has a rather smaller frame compared to me, and she looked as if she has never been in a fight. I said "you did just attack me with an apple. Looks can be very deceiving" She replied " I guess that is true, now what will I do with you" "Spare, Let me go, and forgive me" I joked “I will forgive you, but freeing I cannot do." She said “PLEASE!!" I said while giving her the puppy dog eyes She replied “You need to repay for my wears and vials, to do so I’ll put you through my trials" "So basically I have to work off what I owe." She nodded "But what can I possible do while tied to this tree?" “What you say is right; you can start when I stop your bite." I cocked my head and said "Stop my bite?" As if on schedule the 'Twilight' trotted down the trail and meet up with me and the striped one. "Hi" she said The striped on waved at her, and she trotted over to her. The purple one came over with a leathery leash thing. Her horn started glowing again and I immediately hit the deck and covered my eye with my paws. I felt something getting fastened to my muzzle. I uncovered my eyes and saw that my leash devise was on my muzzle. "Uuummmm...... What the hell is this?" I said "It is a special devise I embedded with magic. You are going to be able to talk normally with it on but if you even think of hurting any pony it will clamp your mouth shut." “Zecora is the stripped ones name?" "Yes, Zecora is a zebra so she has a different zebra based name." "Wait a second, so she is a zebra so doesn't that mean you are a zebra too?" “NO!! I'm a pony!! She yelled "OKAY!! You don't need to yell. I have never heard of or seen you 'ponies' and 'zebras' in my entire life. I was raised out here in the everfree you don't get that much education about other species out here except the ones you eat, you know." She looked shocked and said "You ea...Eat other animals?" she stuttered "Ya, it’s not that big of a deal. don't you?" I said blankly "YOU ARE TERRIBLE!!! HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO OTHER CREATURES THAT IS JUST EVIL!!!" She yelled even louder this time. I took a couple steps back and said “I was just raised that way I don't HAVE to eat other animals I can eat fruits and vegetables. But It is just the way things are around here" I shuttered a bit. Zecora then walked up and whispered something into Twilight's ear. She then calmed down a bit and said. "Okay, Okay let’s take this from the top. What are you? Who are you? Why are you here? Who is with you? And is there anything important that I should know about you?" She said bluntly “I am Wolfy the wolf. I got interested in the living habits of your friend Zecora and decided to examine her a bit. Right now there is a pack of timber wolfs that I have been living with since I was small pup, but I don't think that they will be looking for me anytime soon. Finally, yes this rope is giving me a horrible neck rash can you take it off for me please?" "Okay doesn’t try anything sneaky." Twilight said "I won't it’s not like I got anywhere to go with this thing on. I can't hunt with it on and if I don't hunt in the pack I don't eat." She removed the collar and WOW!! It felt good to get that thing off. Zecora finally spoke up and said "Now if that is all through, I got some work for you to do" "Alright but don't you think I should learn what everything is first? I don't even know what you do or what anything is." “Why that is true, Twilight what do you think we should do?" Zecora asked "Well spike has been spending allot more time with rarity. I guess I can take him off you hooves and teach him the basics of living in ponyville for you." Twilight replied "Why that would be great, you both should go it’s getting late." Zecora said "Okay I’ll see you tomorrow. Goodbye Zecora" Twilight said I and Twilight said our goodbyes and walk off down the trail. "So where are we going?" I asked "We are heading to ponyville. But first I want to lay down some ground rules. Firstly, I don't want you to eat meat, talk about eating meat, or go hunt for meat that means that all animals you encounter are off limits and all ponies a well. Secondly, don’t get into any fights or use any harsh language you be nice to us we will be nice to you. And lastly, you do what I tell you when I tell you if I think any of my friends or family are in danger I will not hesitate to crush your face understand?" "Yes I understand. By the way which part of the forest is it in?" I asked “Ponyville is no in the everfree forest."She said "Wait what? So you’re telling me there is more than just forest? I have been living in the everfree all my life and I haven't ever left it." I said shockingly “Well you didn't really thing the whole world was a forest did you?" She said jokingly “Actually I did." "Okay then....." She said awkwardly We both walked for a while silently. We than came across a very bright opening in the forest that burned my eyes just looking at. When through it I saw another small cottage that had a large array of small fluffy animals around it. I’ll be honest they looked delicious there aren't allot of small animals like them in the forest and they were kind of a wolf's favorite snack and when I say a wolf's snack I mean MY SNACK. I was drooling a bit from just looking at them. "Wolfy what are you doing?" I snapped out of my trance and looked over at Twilight. The leather devise was no joke i couldn't open my mouth at all. Twilight noticed and face hoofed She said “I don't even want to know and we are here." she pointed towards at ponyville. It was ignoramus. There were so many building and ponies that I couldn't believe that I never came across the town before. On the way to ponyville Twilight Told me to remember the rules she told me. She also told me that I should try to lay low for a bit because ponyville has a history of bad encounters with other creatures that come from the everfree forest. I completely dismissed the thought. “How bad can it be? I mean just because I'm a wolf doesn't mean I'll kill everything I see only just the stuff I want to eat." I said "Ok but I'm warning you look out for flying objects ponies have been getting a little defensive ever since the changeling attack." she said "Changelings?" "Flying bug creatures that can shape shift and use magic" She replied “I ran into a few of those before their skin was hard to crack open and since they can fly I had to rip their wings off first." I said "What did I tell you about talking that way?" "Sorry" We were walking through the town now. There were so many vibrant colors to this town and so much personality nothing like the ever free. I then smelled something very sweet. I couldn't compare it to anything else that I had before, but I wanted it badly. “Twilight can we get whatever that is?" "What do you mean?" “Where ever that amazing smell is coming from. Please please please." I said excitingly "I can't smell anything" "I must have better smelling than you. Follow me" I ran at full speed to find the location of the delicious treat I smelt. It wasn't like anything I have ever had it was sweet, cooked, and delightful. I came across a giant house made of food. I immediately jumped at it and tried to take a bite but it was just a regular building and I cracked a fang. Twilight finally caught up panting and saw me biting it. She than face hoofed for the umpteenth time. I think there is a mark starting to form on her fore head. A pink pony came out of nowhere and was standing next to Twilight. "Wow, I thought I was the only one who did that. “She said "Hi pinkie" Twilight said "What is your new pet’s name? He looks like a big doggy. I always figured you for a cat person."Pinkie said "Actually I'm a wolf not a dog. Anyways do you know where that delicious smell is coming from I want it. Badly." "Here you go." She handed me a small colorful treat from here mane and handed it to me or 'hoofed' it to me. I immediately shoved the whole thing in my mouth. It was amazing. It was soft, sweet, creamy, and very addicting. I ran over to the Pinkie and started searching through her mane to find another one. "HA HA HA HA!!!! That tickles “Pinkie laughed "Wolfy get out of Pinkie's mane right now."Twilight said I stopped my search "Sorry Pinkie he is not from around here. He lives in the everfree forest." Twilight explained "No duuuuuhhhhhh Twilight I know everypony remember?"Pinkie said "Ya I know" Twilight sighed "I need to go. See you later guys."Pinkie bounced away "What did i just eat it was amazingly delicious. But it Kind of taste familiar I can't put my paw on it." I said while I was licking my paws “It’s just a cupcake. We should head home now we got a big day tomorrow." Twilight said "Why would we have a big day?" I said confused "You don't know Pinkie pie like I do."
