The train stopped. Now other bipedal creatures similar to Dan arrived along with more ponies, this time Ah could spotted Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon among the crowd. Now that they’re friends with our sisters their presence didn’t bother me that much but Ah felt uncomfortable around the rest more. The train continued its journey.
“Who are these guys?”
“I don’t know Applejack” Rarity answered as she came back from her sleep. “But they looked feared and traumatized. Probably the best is to not observe them, they’ll probably ask us questions we don’t want to answer.”
“They are called humans” Teddie answered us. “Animals that can stand on their hind legs and are well known for their intelligence” Both Teddie and Aleksandr looked indifferent to them.
“Ya went to one of Lyra’s classes?” Ah asked questionin’ her knowledge.
“...Yes but I was never a fan of. Too much gossiping and too much fanaticism for me. Plus I wasn’t even interested in anthropology at all, I prefer animals like him” she referred to Aleksandr and cuddled his head. “I made my choice: I’ll take him with me when I left.”
All the humans were blackened and ashy, their eyes reflected pain and all of them wearin’ the equivalent to the Royal Army’s signature armor. As for the little fillies they looked paled. Now there was nothin’ to hide for them. While they were gossipin’ Ah felt weird from inside. Despite their appearances everypony looked so happy, that wasn’t normal.
“Look at them Applejack” Rarity touched mah shoulder to make me feel safe. “It’s hard to recall those little girls once bullied our sisters and now they’re friends” she sighed. “Makes me feel tranquil.”
“You should get some rest” said Teddie, once again meddling in our conversation. “Is she always that alert Rarity?”
“Not really.”
She closed her eyes and tried to get some sleep. Ah just focused on the map to check the road. Where is this goin’?
We were always there for each other when we needed comfort, we were always there when one of us needed to be defended and even when we get older and some things remained the same. Little did any one of us know is that somethin’ was growin’ between us that was more than just friendship.
