> My special life in Ponyville > by orcalady > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > My first day in PonyVille > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I woke up in the middle of a forest that I didn’t recognize. The last thing I remembered was I had just got in bed after a long day at work. I got up when I heard someone singing. It was someone that had a voice of butterscotch. I was hesitant. But I quickly ran towards the voice while being hidden in the bushes. There was a peep hole in the bush I was in, so I looked through it and I couldn’t believe my own eyes. There was a yellow pegasus with light pink hair. She was singing to some birds while a little bunny sat right next to her. The song she sang, I never heard it before in my life. It was so mesmerizing. I honestly thought it put me in a trance. I turned my head slightly, when I heard her talking to the bunny named Angel. I took a little bit of a chance and step forward a few steps. Suddenly I felt an atrocious pain in my right ankle. I looked down and I found out that I had stepped into a hole full of jagged rocks. My leg and ankle was bleeding very badly. I made a noise that sounded like a half scream and half sob, but it was not loud at all. But then I realised that the pegasus was no longer where she was. I was saddened by the fact that she had left. I wondered if I would ever see her again. A soft voice came from behind me, “Hello, are you okay? Are you in pain?” I jumped a bit, but then she saw my leg and ankle. “Oh my, you poor poor thing. Let me help you.” “Excuse me, Ma’am.. Do you have some sort of bandage or some water?” “At home, I do. Can you walk or do you just want to stay here for now?” “I think I will stay here. I need to sit down anyways.” And with that being said I sat down and lifted my pants leg up just a bit to examine the damage. It honestly looked like I had a bite mark around my ankle and leg. Wait did I get bitten? I don’t think I did, but with this place I am in I don’t know what could happen. She said to the bunny, “Angel, go get some bandages and some buckets of water from the cottage and please ask the other animals if they could get my cart. Also maybe some lanterns, we might be out while it is dark. Depends on how fast we move.” The bunny ran off, and she turned to look at me with soft, gentle eyes. Then she asked me, “What is your name? And I don’t mean to sound rude or anything like that, but what exactly are you?” I looked at her then looked at the ground before answering. “My name is Timothy and I am a human man. I come from a world called Earth. I don’t know where I am or how I got here. Or how to get back home. You probably think I am the strangest creature you have ever seen, Sorry about the fact that I look like a mess. I am normally a lot neater.” She sat a bit closer to me. “Well, my name is Fluttershy. You are strange, but I don’t judge somepony or animal by their looks, just their personality. And I would love to be your friend if that is okay?” I was shocked, but then I composed myself, “Yeah, that is fine. Fluttershy, could I ask you something?” “Sure, anything for a friend.” “Could I stay at you place until I can find a way home?” “I was actually going to see if you would like to stay at my cottage while your leg heals. And maybe a little bit longer if you want.” Just then the bunny appeared with some bandages then a bear came up behind her with a cart and a deer came next with a bucket of water and some rags. After Fluttershy had clean and bandaged up my injured ankle, she helped me into the cart. Then I realized that there was a harness attached to the cart. I was confused until she strapped herself into the harness. During the trip, we talked while the lil bunny glared at me. I don’t think he likes me at all. She had told me about her other pony friends. I think I will get along with Rainbow Dash. We are both competitive and both love to fly. I told fluttershy that I had used to be stunt pilot, but after that I worked at an animal shelter. It started to get dark, so we had taken a five minute break to get the lanterns on, then we were moving once more. It took roughly an hour and a half before we got to her cottage, which had reminded my of a childhood summer country home. When we got inside, I noticed her house was filled with animals of all types. From birds and butterflies, to bears and bunnies. She had helped me lay down on a couch with my leg propped up. I thanked her as she left to get me some soup. She came back with some warm veggie soup, which was a known favorite soup of mine. She hummed that tune I heard her sang earlier as she went to clean up and put everything where it is supposed to go. It was getting a bit late, so she helped me into a bed for the night. As soon as she left the room, I whispered, “Goodnight, Fluttershy. Sweet dreams.” I wonder what she thinks of me. I know I must be strange to her, but I know what I think of her. I know she is a sweet young lady. Well rather pony, and she loves taking care of others if they are hurt or need help. I honestly love her. Yeah, I know that I just met her, but with that personality what I couldn’t love about her..?
