Aaron's journey through life and equestria

by Darkscout99


Preparations

The first thing I noticed after leaving the hospital was how fresh everything was. The air was crisp, smelled great, and just made me happy. the ground and walls of buildings had no soot on them, and the water under the bridge i was on was so clear. I realised to pull off my dream I would need four things. The first was money; bits, gryphs, and what ever other kinds of money that equestria had created. The second thing would be supplies; armor, weapons, food, water, maps, first aid, and a way to carry it all. The third thing would be training; how to use everything that i would need on my journey. The final thing i needed was information. To get everything I figured that I would stay in ponyville for three years. The first two would be good for getting information and bits. Celestia left me enough for a small house, so I decied I should start there. So I went to town hall and looked at the listings, and got the cheapest house that would suit my needs. I also got a bed, fridge, table, a few chairs, and some dishes. that would be all I needed, and the less I spent on my house the more i could spend on leaving in a little bit. That took me a few days, and once I had a house I decieded it was time to look for a job. The most ideal one would be a blacksmith, as I could probably get a discount when I went to buy things, and it would probably strengthen me with the work that it would take. I had Twilight send Luna my adress, and she had the maps to me within the day. I got a full wall map of all of equestria, and another full wall map that allowed me to see any part of Equestria that i wanted in a better detail. She also sent me a crystal. I thought that it was just a gift, but after i wiped it off it shot out a beam from the tip that quickly widened to show a map of ponyville, and about a mile around it.

"huh" I said under my breath.

The note that I found after I figured out how the map worked said that is showed a mile radius around wherever I was, and not just ponyville! I guess Twilight must have also told Luna about what i was planning to do. So I had my job for money, and it payed pretty good. I also had a source for my supplies covered with that job. I figured I could get some books from twilight for the information. So it seems that things are going pretty good. The only other thing i needed was training, but I could get that later, and besides, I needed to know what I would be best for self defense out there. I went home and went to sleep, planning to get to my job and take care of it as fast as possible, so i could get some more information on the world around me. With that thought, I drifted off to sleep.
