(Here's a new fic I want to share with you guys, and I hope you like it.)

The sun shined in through the window of the room belonging to seventeen year old boy, Cody Harrison. The sun shined onto his face forcing him to groan, and was further awakened by his digital alarm clock. He reached over and turned it off before yawning. He sat up while rubbing the sleep out of his green eyes, while rubbing his messy red bed hair, "Mornings, always a bummer," he groaned before looking over at his calendar seeing it was May 26th and circled with 'First Day of Summer!' written on it. Suddenly Cody's eyes opened wide and he smiled in excitement, "Of course, it's Summer time!" he cheered as he jumped out of bed, and went to take a shower.

He came out wearing jeans and a red shirt, before slipping into his sneakers. He went to the kitchen and grabbed a piece of toast that popped out of the toaster, before looking at his dad who was sitting at the kitchen table, reading the paper, "Morning dad."

His dad put the paper down and watched his son butter his toast before eating it, "Well morning, Cody. You look hyped up today."

"Why wouldn't I be, dad? It's summer vacation. No school, no homework, nothing but three months of freedom!" he held up his piece of toast before finishing the rest.

"Well I just hope you're not gonna throw it all away by sleeping in or doing nothing." his dad replied.

"Wouldn't think of that. Well I'm heading off, be back for dinner!" he rushed off.

"Be careful out there!" his father called out to him as he left the house.

~Cody's POV~

And that's how it started, the first day of summer vacation. I got on my vespa and road off looking for fun. I live in Aurora Illinois. It was like my playground. My sanctuary. As I road down the street, coming around a corner on another vespa was my best friend Jeremy Price. He considered himself like a playboy, and who could blame him. With his short blonde hair gelled back and nice teeth, I actually considered him my rival. We'd jam together with our guitars, ride our vespas all around town like we owned the place, and vowed we'd live it up like there was no tomorrow every day.

"Yo, Cody!" he called out to me as we rode side by side.

"Jer-man!" I called back, while we kept our eyes on the road.

"Heading for Sabrina's?" Jeremy asked me.

"Damn right." I replied.

"Well let's ride!" He proclaimed as we rode off together.

We pulled up in front of a house belonging to the third member of our group, Sabrina Taylor. Now she was what you'd call a woman among girls. By eighth grade she was already sporting a C-cup, and now she was moving into a D-cup. Whoever first said 'Milk does a body good!' wasn't lying. She'd also jam with Jeremy and I with her keyboard. She had what we'd call the magic fingers, because they never missed a key.

We saw her drive down her driveway on her own vespa, with her long brown lair blowing behind her. She pulled to a halt, and spoke to us, "Well look at these dirty rats." she teased us.

"I'm not dirty, I just had a bath." Jeremy responded, and we chuckled.

"Come on you two, summer vacations begun and we got us some living up to do." I declared as the three of us road down the street, unaware that this summer was gonna take a turn for some unusual twists.

~Normal POV~

The three rode throughout the afternoon around town, before stopping at a red light, "So are we set to perform at the Sizzler tonight?" Sabrina asked Cody.

"I hope so. I've been waiting for this gig. A perfect way to kick off summer." he replied.

"Yeah, and I hope the pays good." Jeremy added.

"You and me both, brother." Cody answered, as the light turned green as they rode off.

As they rode out of town, they were riding on a hill along side a forest preserve. It was quiet with no other cars driving along it at this time, "Come on guys, let's get lunch." Sabrina suggested.

"I'm down with that." Jeremy agreed.

"Same here," Cody put in, until he looked up ahead seeing dark clouds forming, "Damn looks like we're getting a washout."

"Huh? Weatherman didn't predict any rain today." Sabrina noted.

"Since when has the guy ever been right?" Jeremy asked.

"Well it looks like it's gonna be a real cloud burst," Cody noted, "We better turn around." they turned their vespas around before driving back.

They looked behind them and saw the clouds were moving faster and faster, "What the hell?" Jeremy asked, as the storm started with thunder claps echoing throughout the sky.

"No storm clouds can move that fast." Sabrina stated, as they continued riding, until a lightning strike struck the street they were on, and almost got them had they not changed lanes.

"That was too close!" Cody cried in shock.

"Guys, we got a bigger problem." Jeremy spoke up, as they looked up ahead seeing a blanket of fog rolling in.

"Fog lights!" Cody called, as they switched their bikes fog lights on as they drove into the fog.

As they drove through it, they saw their lights weren't doing the trick, "I can't see where I'm going!" Sabrina called.

"We better pull over." Cody instructed, but before they could.

"What's that?" Jeremy asked, as the three looked ahead and saw they were riding right up to a guard rail. They were driving up to it so fast their vespas crashed into it, and the three were sent flying over their handlebars and were falling down into another misty section screaming, until it started fading as they faded into the mist.

~Everfree Forest~

In the Everfree Forest, pegasus Fluttershy, and earth pony Applejack were busy collecting some plants and herbs for Fluttershy's animals. Applejack was pulling a big cart, while Fluttershy was placing some of the plants she was collecting on it, "Thank you so much for helping me today, Applejack. I know you were probably busy or had something else planned today." Fluttershy spoke timidly.

"Not a problem at all, Fluttershy. Yall know I'm always willing to help a friend." The cowgirl pony explained.

"And I appreciate that you do," Fluttershy smiled, until she heard a groaning sound, which spooked her, "What was that?"

Applejack looked around cautiously, "Ah don't know, but it sounds close."

"Maybe we should go?" Fluttershy suggested, only for Applejack to follow the sound, with a reluctant Fluttershy following her.

They searched the forest for the source of the sound, until they stopped and saw three unusual creatures lying on the ground covered in leaves and sticks, while their bodies were scratched up, and their clothes had tears in them. The two ponies approached the three cautiously, until they were right on top of them, "Fluttershy, what do ya think they are?" the cowgirl asked the expert on animals.

"I don't know. I've never seen anything like them before," Fluttershy gasped at their conditions, "But they look hurt. We better take them to my cottage."

Applejack gave a concerned look, "I don't mean to question ya, sugarcube. But is that really a smart idea? We don't know what these things could be."

"But Applejack, look at them," Fluttershy began, "They look hurt, and if we just leave them here they could die. Won't you please help me get them to my cottage?"

Applejack unable to turn down a request from Ponyville's most kindest of ponies spoke up, "All right, let's get these fellas on the wagon." she ordered, as the two gently picked the three up and laid them on the cart gently.

As they trotted off, while carrying the cart filled with the three new creatures, they were unaware of a shadowy creature watching them from behind a bush. The creature suddenly sunk into the ground and traveled along it like a shadow.

(And there you have it. Don't miss next time where the three find out what happened after they crashed.)
