My little Amnesia

First day in Ponyville

Authors note: this story was inspired by a video on youtube with the same title,

Wind Rider took a step out into the cool morning air. He had been sent to Ponyville to record data for the weather patrol about how the pegasi were handling the weather and keeping the skies clear unless scheduled otherwise. “They seem to be doing a decent job today”, he commented. The orange tinted sky had only a few clouds here and there, and the sun was peeking over the horizon, showering the nearby lake with beautiful shimmers. Stretching his dark gray wings, Wind Rider flew up into the sky, hoping to meet a few ponies who would show him around.


As Wind Rider approached the nearby town of Ponyville, he noticed something strange was going on. Most of the town was empty, save a bright pink pony who's mane and tail looked as poofy as a cloud. “Excuse me, miss”, he called out to the pink pony. She shot over to him in two milliseconds. “Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie. I've never seen you around here before. Are you new? Because if you're new that means that I get to throw you a party!”, she said, faster than you can say hello. “Um, yeah, I'm new here. Anyway, can you please tell me where I can find a the weather patrol leader for Ponyville? I need to gather info for my boss about how the weather is holding up”, he told Pinkie Pie. “I don't know what the weather patrol is, but Rainbow Dash might be able to help you out”, she told Wind Rider. “Thanks,” he said, flying off towards his house. “Jeez, she was annoying”, he said as soon as he was out of earshot.


Wind Rider searched the town for anypony who might be able to help him locate Rainbow Dash. His search was fruitless though, given the town appeared to be abandoned. Walking into the town square, he saw a rainbow streak fly across the sky. 'Must be Rainbow Dash', he thought, shooting up into the sky after her. He was one of the fastest fliers in Cloudsdale, so he managed (barely), to catch up to the pegasus. “Slow down will you”, he called out while trying to keep up. Rainbow Dash turned her head and saw the gray pegasus trying to catch up with her. Slowing down her speed to average pegasi speeds, she allowed the pegasus to catch his breath.


“Hi, I'm Wind Rider”, said Wind Rider to the cyan blue pegasus. “Names Rainbow Dash”, she responded. “Why were you following me?” “Well, I was sent by my boss to collect info on how pegasi here were keeping up with the weather and the schedule for next month”, he explained. “Anyway, I was looking for the leader of Ponyville's weather patrol, and somepony named Pinkie Pie told me to look for you.” “ Well, you came to the right pony. I am Ponyville's weather patrol leader”, she said. “And as for what you needed to know, we do need a list of next month's scheduled weather patterns.” Wind Rider nodded and reached into one of the pockets on his dark green vest. Pulling out a piece of paper, he handed it to Rainbow Dash, who took it and nodded in thanks. “Well, see you around”, said Wind Rider, shooting off in the direction of his dwelling.


At around 4:30 in the afternoon, Wind Rider went outside, planning on doing some flight training. His plans were interrupted by a loud rumble. He hadn't thought about it, but he know realized how hungry he was. Deciding to head into Ponyville to see what food was available, he slid his wallet into a pouch on his vest, he flew off in the direction of the small town.


Upon arriving in Ponyville for the second time today, he landed on one of the now crowded streets. Well, they seemed crowded compared to this morning. None of the restaurants that he saw had anything appealing to him. Still searching, he saw a place called Sugar Cube Corner. Walking in the front door, a bell rang that he assumed signaled employees there was a customer. He was greeted two seconds later by Pinkie Pie. “Hi, welcome to, oh hey its you, that one colt I met earlier today. What's your name by the way, because mine is Pinkie Pie or did I already tell you that?” He silenced her by putting his hoof in her mouth, but she still kept trying to talk. “My name is Wind Rider. Do you have anything I could eat?”, he asked, wiping off his hoof on the side of his vest. “Oh sure, we have lots of goodies here at Sugar Cube Corner. What do you want? A cake, a cupcake, ice cream, candy?”, she asked him. Wind Rider felt ready to puke at the sound of all that sugar. “ Do you sell, like, salads or something with actual nutritional value?”, he asked. “No, silly, this a bakery”, she said, still sounding excited. “Okay then, I guess I'll go find something then. See you some other time”, he said, waving goodbye and walking out the door.


Walking down an old beaten path, he left Ponyville, hoping to get the rest of the day over with. Walking up a gentle slope, back to his house, he stopped to gaze at the mountain in the distance. If he looked closely, he could see the huge capital city of Canterlot. 'Wow', he thought amazed at the beauty of the floating city. Continuing on his way uphill, he saw a yellow pegasus pony with a pink, normal mane holding a baby bird that had appeared to have fallen out of its nest. “Every thing's alright”, she whispered to the baby bird, gently placing it back into the nest. As she flew away from the tree, Wind Rider trotted up to her. “That's quite a gift with nature you have there”, he commented. The pegasus jumped back in fright. He turned to face her. “What was that for?”, he asked her. “Oh, sorry, you just startled me”, she whispered. “Sorry about that”, he apologized. “My name is Wind Rider. What's your's?”, he asked in a calm tone. “Um My name is Fluttershy”, she said quietly. “Fluttershy, nice name.”, he complimented her. Looking up at the sky,, he could see the sun beginning to set and a few bright stars popping out. “Well, I gotta go. Se ya”, he said, shooting up the rest of the hill to his house.


Wind Rider strolled over to his desk, picking up his book on aerodynamics. He was constantly trying to find ways to increase his speed in flight, so he brought this book with him from his house in upper Cloudsdale. Skipping to the last chapter titled “Aerodynamics and flight speed”, he read over highlighted concepts until the moon was high in the sky. Gazing out the window, he noticed how late it was. Closing the book, he trotted up the stairs and into his new bedroom. Laying down on the bed, he closed his eyes, wondering what tomorrow would have in store for him.
