Rain of Change

Chapter 2 - The First Friend ?

"Nonononononono... what's going on ? Is this another dream ?"

Quite shocked after discovering he turned into a pony, Tony kept looking at the water surface to get another glimpse at his new self every time a lightning lid up the surroundings. While he was to busy looking shocked at his pony form, and avoiding a heart attack each time he did not notice he already stood up and was already walking around like he's always been a pony.

Each time before another lightning lid up the water surface he was pacing from left to right and back, also he failed to notice something was coming closer to him hidden in the dark rainy night. The shadow drew closer to him unnoticed, it finally next to him, and a female voice yelled over the loud noise over rain and thunder

"What are you doing in this rain?!"

Tony was just very close to her face as a lightning brightened it up in a very creepy way, a beautiful blue mare with silverish mane and a umbrella stood in front of him, but at the creepy sight he screamed loudly before trying to run away

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Tony did not get very far as he slipped on the wet grass and fell forward in the lake. Tony almost stood in his bed as he suddenly woke up panting heavily, looking around with wide open eyes he noticed he was in his room, but how's that possible he was wondering

"Was it just a dream after all ?.."

He looked down at himself, everything was back to normal he was not a pony anymore, as he climbed out of his bed and headed towards the door and opened it, there was a long strange hallway in front of him, it was dark and cold. He hesitated, but as his room started to vanish behind him his eyes got wide and he made a run for it, and a deep and dark sounding voice echoed as he ran

"Come to me boy... it is time... time to-"

but that voice was cut off and another female voice, the one from before could be heard now "Hey you, wake up already" Tony stopped running already as he looked confused and almost whispered

"wake... up.. ?"

Once he finished everything turned white and he slowly opened his eyes, as his blurry vision slowly became clearer he saw the face from the night before and was about to scream again as he opened his mouth wide, but the blue mare interrupted him with a annoyed face

"You aren't going to scream again.. are you ?"

Still with open mouth he stared at her for a moment and then closed it and shook his head, but remained silent as he suddenly felt strong pain in his head and put his hoof on it, and felt bandages. The Blue mare sighed

"You hit your head pretty bad when you fell down that lake, you can be glad i was there to pull you out, so what's your name ?"

His hoof still holding his head he just looked at her but did not say a word, and the blue mare narrowed her eyes as she continued a little angry

"Hey i asked you something! Also a 'thank you for saving my life' couldn't hurt either"

He looked down as he was still confused, and kinda worried of just what the hell was going on, after a moment he finally started mumbling something

"Thank you for saving me.........."

She looked at him one eyebrow raised and not quite satisfied as he looked up and continued

"Just call me Craze..."

her eye twitched a little a she was a little confused

"Well that is a interesting name.... *ahem*"

while she got a posing position on her hind legs she said

"I am the Great and Powerful TRRRRRRIXIEEE"

while 'Craze' was looking rather disturbed at her with now his eye twitching he was unable to respond to that introduction, and the blue mare just sighed and got down on all her hooves

"Yea go ahead laugh... i'm nothing but a laughing stock these days... nopony want to see The Gre-- .. who am i trying to tell that anymore.. nopony want to see Trixie a unicorn like any other performing petty magic tricks...."

Trixie just looked down depressed as she turned around, when Craze tried to get up, as he never seen any magic before he rather eager to see it

"Umm.. well.. i..i would like to see it.. Trixie.."

She turned around as she had a certain glow in them as she was excited

"You do?!"

Craze nodded

"*ahem* then be amazed by the magic of The Great and Powerful TRRRRIXIE!!!"

She began as she was performing all kind of magic in the small tent, growing flowers out of her horn, levitating, turning an apple into an orange, and many more as she finished off with paper birds. Craze was enjoying his first real magic show, clopping his for applaud

"That was awesome, i never seen anything like it, really amazing"

as Trixie looked at him after that she blushed a little but shook it off

"So does that mean you never saw magic in your life ?"

He shook his head, as he yet had to understand where he was, and the Trixie continued talking

"Well, were there no unicorns where you come from ?, and if you not from around here, where do you come from ?"

Craze looked away as he was not really sure how to answer that, telling her he comes from the human world was just as crazy he just turned into a pony, but he then answered

"W-well.. i don't really know where i come from, and i just happened to be lost here..."

Trixie came closer to him, which just made a it awkward as she was almost face to face to him and he slightly blushed, she then jumped back as she finished her 'investigation'

"Well, since you are a pegasus, shouldn't you be from Cloudsdale ?"

Craze just shrugged and she continued

"MM well, anywhere you were going ?"

he just wanted to find a way of course, kind of at least as he thought back whats waiting back there for him he wasn't really eager to get back, even though he was a pony right now

"Ehhh... well.. not really actually..."

Trixie was quiet for a while as she began thinking, and then looked up to him

"Well, i suppose we can travel along for now, not like i have anywhere to go really either"

Craze smiled and nodded as he for the first time found someone that was something close to a friend, and as he not yet knew where exactly he was, nor what was ahead of him on his journey and his new friend Trixie.
