> The Friends of Mine > by TH3G4M1NGP0NY > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > 1: The Beginning > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was nearing the end of the school day for four friends. The four friends planned to spend time together over the next weekend. Two out of the four friends were siblings one a brother and a sister the siblings names were Hope Hoffman and Alexander Hoffman. The siblings two friends were Daisy and Jake, as the day went on finally the last class was almost over and they were all in the same class. "Alright then what do you guys usually talk about in this class." said Alex "Umm..." as Daisy said "what ever comes to mind." Jake finished for her. "I told you before brother." Hope said in a nervous tone. "I'm sorry I forgot about that sis." Alex said "Here I thought that she wouldn't mind." "Its okay we all forget once in awhile." said Jake in reasonable voice. "Thanks for understanding its just that I've been keeping to myself lately." Alex said in a sad tone. Alex thought to himself "Hmmm..." after he tuned out everybody "Maybe I have a chance to make some friends here after all." Remembering when he moved from his hometown with his family to where he is now "I don't want to move what about my friends and...and...and."Alex said "And what." his mom said. "And my girlfriend" he replied. His mom was in shock for a little while from what she heard from her son. "Now a better reason for us to move." his dad said from behind him. "No I won't leave until you tell me why we're moving?" he said in a very sad voice knowing he would be leaving all of his friends and his girlfriend. just he snapped out of his memory. Jake talking to Alex trying to get his attention. "Hey...hey...HEY! Alex wanna hangout at my house today after school?" Awakening from his thoughts "Huh...O-oh yeah sure." Alex said in a nervous tone. "Alright then come over to my house when school is over okay." said Jake. "Yeah okay then but what are we going to do." Alex said. "Huh... I never thought about till now." Jake said in questionable voice. "Well let us see what the girls are going to be doing today." Alex said. "Okay" Jake said shaking his head in a yes way. The boys both asked the girls at the same time. "What are they going to be doing today after school is over?" They said "Nothing but the usual." The boys asked "What was the usual?" "Oh nothing much just watch tv and whatever else there is to do." The girls answered. "Care if we join you two on whatever it is that you girls do?" asked both Jake and Alex . "Sure I guess." both Hope and Daisy replied. As the day went on the friends discuss what they were going to do today and over the weekend. It was now three thirty on the clock as the bell rang to notify the students that school was over. The four friends then walked back from school towards Alex and Hope's house were they would spend time together and to get to know each other better. As the friends started talking a thunderstorm seem to be coming toward them. Daisy and Jake asked "Hey you guys can we spend a night here?" Alex and Hope said "Sure, why not." The TV then turned on a strange voice told them "We need your help can you please help us?" The four friends just stood there in terror and amazement. Alex said "Sure but where are you?" and then the voice they heard sounded familiar to Hope as she is the only to know about stuff like this. Hope thought to herself "Princess Celestia and Princess Luna were talking to us but why?" and then all of a sudden they all had been talking to the television to a unknown person expect Hope as she knew this person would be the princess of Equestria. As all four of the friends were talking to the person they started to calm down and ask what was wrong in its world expect for Hope she knew what was wrong she wanted to help so she just dove through the television screen into a new world as she did she was thinking to herself "Why would the Princess ask us for help?" just then she fell asleep while traveling to a new world. Just before that the three other friends noticed what she did and started to panic as they just witnessed what just happened. "We got to go after her!!!" Alex shouted to the other two who still stood there in both amazement and terror but soon snapped out of it and answered "Maybe we should go get somebody?" the other two said. Alex nodded in a yes manner and shouted "You do that I'm going after my sister and jumped toward the television screen and went in. Now it was down to Jake and Daisy who just looked at each other for a moment and just then Jake said to Daisy "l'm going in to I mean how many times is this going to happen to us agian" as soon as he had said that he ran towards the TV and dove right into it after Alex and Hope. He thought to himself "I wonder where are we gonig, why us, and who was talking to us anyway just like that he fell fast asleep. Daisy looking around trying to get away from the TV and out of the house to go find some onethat can help. She would tell them what had just then she thought out loud "No people would think that I'm crazy." You know what I'm just gonna in there any way just then she heard laughing as the voice said "I was just kidding about the whole needing help we just wanted some visitors to come." and then after hearing that she would walk up to the TV and walk in saying "I would be okay and that every thing would be fine." so she went into the television screen and fell fast to sleep as well. > 2: Welcome to Ponyville > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Where am I?" Daisy asked "Were is everyone else at too?" As Daisy started to panic and cry she turned and was met face to face with a pony that was orange with blonde hair. The pony that she had seen She thought to herself "Oh my gosh a talking pony." "Hello there my name is Applejack. and I can't reckon I seen your face here before you new?" Applejack said "Yeah I'm new here my...My friends where are they?"asked Daisy "Calm down sugarcube where was the last you seen them?" Applejack asked "I don't remember when I saw them." Daisy said in a sad tone. Applejack reassured her by saying "Don't worry I'll help you find them." But before she had looked up similing at her saying "Thank you." to Applejack. "Hey Applejack my name is..." she stop and started to think of a name, then she said "My name is Flower Dancer." "Well nice to meet you Flower Dancer." said Applejack in a happy voice. "Applejack where am I at?" Daisy said curiously. Applejack replied "Well your in front of Sweet Apple Acres." Daisy soon turning around to see the whole apple orchard she stopped in amazement and awe. "Well let's go find your brother and your friends." Applejack said Slowly waking up from what seem to be hours of sleep. "Where am I and what happened?" Alex muttered. He heard some one saying in a whispering tone "Are-are you ok?" without turning around Alex says "Yeah I'm okay, thanks for asking anyway." The whispering voice says "Okay I just wanted to make sure you were okay" then Alex suddenly turns around to see a flying pony or pegasus with a shining bright pink mane while the coat was a bright yellow so then Alex falls to the ground and covers his eyes with his hooves and thought to himself that he must be dreaming. The whispering voice saying "D-did I scare you sir?" Alex saying "Y-yes...N-no...you kind of did scare me" The whispering voice saying "Oh I'm so sorry I didn't mean to scare you." "It's okay I'm just new here that's why I got scared." Alex was saying "Who are you anyway and how are you flying?" The pony said "My name is Fluttershy and I'm a pegasus just like you." in a breif moment he turned to see his body and thought "I can fly but, wait I turned into a pegasus ." He said and thinking of a name "My name is Shadow Song" Alex asked Fluttershy "Can you teach me how to fly?" Fluttershy said "I don't know." Alex replied "Pleeeeasee Fluttershy." Fluttershy said "I guess I can try and teach you how to fly." Alex walked toward Fluttershy and hugged her and said "Thank you." Fluttershy said "We will start tomorrow okay, you should probably go and explore Ponyville." Alex asked "Where is Ponyville?" Fluttershy pointed the direction of Ponyville and Alex galloped toward the direction of Ponyville. As soon as he was gone Fluttershy started to question herself if she had seen him beforeshe thought about him for a moment and said "I had never seen him before is he new and where did he come from?". Waking up as well was Jake but he was in the center of town when he was waking up and to his surprise many ponies were looking at him. He had in him to stand up and keep himself from fainting he thought to himself "Why are these ponies looking at me and where am I?" Just suddenly a purple pony with purple and pink mane comes running toward him and asks "Where did you come? My friends told me you just appeared out of nowhere." Jake turn toward the purple pony with purple and pink mane and says "Friends... oh no my friends where are my friends at?" He asked her, she answers "I don't where your friends are, but me and my friends could help you, but you have to tell me where you came from." Jake sighed and said "I don't remember where I came from, but are you still going to help me?" The purple pony with pink and purple mane said "We will help you." Jake said in a relief tone "Oh thank you I'm glad you will help me" Jake said "My name is..." he thought "I don't know what my name should be." soon then he thought of a name and said "My name is Shadow Star." Jake said. The purple pony with purple and pink mane said "Oh my name is Twilight Sparkle, Twilight for short." "That's an intresting name Twilight." Jake said "Is there a place where me and my friends can stay while we are we?" Twilight nodded and said "Yes there is but why?" Jake answered "I have a feeling that my friends and I will be here for awhile." Twilight said "You can stay with me till we find your friends." Jake said "Thank you Twilight." and they both walked towards Twilight's house, "Oh welcome to Ponyville Shadow Star." Twilight said, Jake replied "Thanks Twilight." The last of the four friends was Hope to wake up on a cloud. She then notice a pony had seen her on the cloud she was on and she thought about what might happen "Ooooo what might happen to me? Will they find who and what I really am?" The pony that saw her was cyan coat pony with her rainbow mane. "Hey their what are you doing up here." the cyan pony with a rainbow mane said. "Umm..." Hope said "Taking a nap on the clouds I'm guessing." said the cyan pony with rainbow mane. "Yeah that's what I was doing." Hope said in a nervous tone. So what's your name? the pony with cyan coat and rainbow mane. "My name is..." Hope said . Hope was thinking of a name. Hope said "My name is Electrical Sketch " in a happy tone. "Great meeting you Electrical Sketch." said the pony with the cyan coat and rainbow mane, and said "My name is Rainbow Dash " Hope said "Nice meeting you Rainbow Dash." Rainbow Dash said "Where did you come from?" Hope was thinking where she came from, I don't remember where I came from." Hope said. Rainbow Dash said "Well that really doesn't matter, oh...um welcome to Ponyville Electrical Sketch." "Where is my brother and my friends?" Hope asked Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash replied I don't know what your talking about, but I'll help you." Hope sighed in relief and said "Can you show me around this place?" Rainbow Dash said "Sure, maybe we will find your brother and friends." > 3: All Friends Meet > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOPE'S P.O.V Hope asked Rainbow Dash "Can you help me get off of here?" Rainbow Dash asked herself "Why can't she get off this cloud herself?" as Rainbow Dash was asking herself Hope tried to think of a reason why she couldn't get off the cloud. Hope had came up with a reason she couldn't get off the cloud "I have a injured wing see." as Rainbow Dash circled around Hope and investigated her wings, as she did that Hope was getting nervous so she asked again "Can you help me?" Rainbow Dash said "Yeah I'll help you Electrical Sketch." Hope sighed in relief when she heard what Rainbow Dash said. Rainbow Dash said to herself "I don't buy that excuse what is the real reason she can't get off?" as Rainbow Dash picked up Hope and took her to the ground. Hope said "Thanks Rainbow Dash I would've never got off the cloud if weren't for you." Rainbow Dash said "No problem I always help a friend in need." Hope asked Rainbow Dash "Where is the nearest town at?" Rainbow Dash replied "Come and follow me and I will show you Sketch." Hope thought "A nickname I guess." Rainbow Dash yelled from a distance "Are you coming or what!" Hope yelled back "Yeah I'm coming Rainbow Dash!" as she galloped towards Rainbow Dash she could see a town, Hope asked Rainbow Dash "What is that town called?" Rainbow Dash replied "Thats Ponyville, Sketch" Hope said "Ponyville huh that souds like a great name." As Rainbow Dash and Hope were entering Ponyville. Hope suddenly asked "Rainbow Dash can you teach me how to fly?" Rainbow Dash stopped and said "You don't know how to fly?" as she said that thought "So thats the real reason why you couldn't get off the cloud" "I'm new here and I hardly learned how to fly" Hope said in a dissapointing tone. So Rainbow Dash hovering over Hope while they were walking into Ponyville. Rainbow Dash and Hope entered Ponyville. Rainbow Dash said "Is your wing really injured?" Hope nodded and said in a sad voice "No it's not hurt or anything its just that I didn't want anyone to know I couldn't fly." Rainbow Dash asked "Electrical Sketch how are your friends and brother like?" My brother? Hope said. "Yeah your brother" Rainbow Dash said. Hope said in nervous voice "I don't know what he or my friends looks like." Rainbow Dash said "Oh..." just then she saw Twilight with somepony and she asked "Hey Sketch do you know who that pony is?" pointing to the pony next to Twilight. Hope said "I don't know anypony here remember?" Rainbow Dash said "Oh yeah I forgot about that. Lets go meet them then." then they both took off toward the two ponies. JAKE'S P.O.V Just before Hope and Rainbow Dash entered town. "So Twilight how long have you lived here?" Jake asked. "Well I don't know it's been awhile why?" Twilight replied. "I don't know I just like it here and I also want to know somepony who knows everypony that way I can find my friends easier because if you don't know that pony well that might be my friends." Jake explained, Twilight said "Oh yeah if I don't know them then that might be them." Jake said "Exactly my point cause it seems that you know everypony." "You know your smarter than you look." Twilight said. "Thanks for the compliment " Jake said and They both laughed together as they were walking around. "So what are you? Jake asked. Twilight stopped in shocked and said "You don't know what I am?" Jake said nervously "Y-yeah I don't know what you are." Twilight said "Well you may be just like me but..." When she said that Jake looked up to see a horn out of his head and thought "Pony with a horn is called a unicorn!" Jake yelled "You and I are unicorns?" Twilight nodded and said "Yes were unicorns, glad you know you figured it out." Jake was in shock and said nothing for a while then asked "How did I become like this?" Twilight said "Why were you something else before?" Jake thought for a moment to keep down low until he found his friends and so he said "No I was always like this, I just like to scare people thats it, were you scared?" Twilight nodded and said "I was kind of scared when you said what are you." Jake said in a sad tone "Oh sorry I just like to joke around from time to time." Twilight said "Oh its alright I guess." Jake said "Well lets get going Twilight" Twilight replied "Yeah your right star, We should proabably get going." They both started to walk again just before they could reach Twilight house They were stopped by Rainbow Dash and Hope before they could enter Twilight house "Hey Rainbow Dash what are you doing and who is this?" Twilight said "I could ask you the same thing Twilight" Rainbow Dash said "Too bad Rainbow I asked first." Twilight said. Rainbow Dash let out a sigh and said "This is Electrial Sketch and she is trying to look for her brother and friends." When Jake had heard this he thought to keep quiet till Twilight introduced him "This is Shadow Star and he is also looking for his friends too." Twilight said. Hope thought for a moment "Why didn't Jake say anything I would've said hey Hope ...." Huh now I know why we need to know each others names first before we say anything to each other." as she was getting out of her thought she heard Jake saying "Sk-sketch is that really you sketch? " she played along and "Y-yes it's me Star I've been looking for you. You guys helped us find each other." Jake added "Do you guys know each other?" Rainbow Dash and Twilight both said "Yes we know each other we're friends." Hope asked "Shadow Star have you seen my Brother?" Jake replied "No I was going to ask you the same thing Sketch."

"Well then let me introduce myself I'm Shadows Song, and you are?" Alex asked. "I'm Applejack and this here is Flower Dancer she is trying to look for her friends." Applejack said.

Alex said When Daisy heard this she automatically knew who Shadows Song was but she was also so happy to see one of her friends and Daisy said "Do you want to help me find my friends Shadow?" "I guess I'll help you, but I need to get to Ponyville." Alex said "Ah don't worry about that I'll take you two to Ponyville." Applejack said "Thanks AJ is it okay if I call you AJ?" Alex asked "Sure y'all can call me AJ from now on, well lets get going." Applejack said When Applejack said that the two followed Applejack as she lead the way to Ponyville while walking towards Ponyville Alex couldn't wait to learn how to fly. He would imagine himself soaring through the sky doing amazing tricks his imagination was interrupted when he bumped into a building and when he did he heard.
