Chapter 2: Freedom and Encounter.

Light. The first thing I saw on the surface was the blinding light of the sun at first it hurt my eye's, but then again after living underground all my life that's to be expected, after my eye's had adjusted I took in my new surroundings, it was everything I imagined it to be and more, the trees were tall and strong, the grass was green and looked soft to touch, the sun's warmth felt indescribable on my pale skin, just then a gust of wind blew right passed me which brought a smile to my face, it was just like my name and the element I controlled, I was free, the wind felt great like this instead of having to be right near one of the many ventilation shafts that had littered the carved stone walls of the underground city, there were no restrictions, nothing to stop me from moving freely, it was blissful, the air felt so fresh and it was almost as if I could taste it and if it did have a flavour then it would be a cool mint, it was truly a wonderful feeling that I'll treasure forever.

After my moment of tranquillity I begun to walk through the somewhat creepy forest, taking in the sights of the scenery as I moved onward, after what felt like 10 minutes later I came across a small clearing that was next to a large river, I decided that this would be my campsite, it was an ideal surrounding, I had access to water, the ground was dry and if anything hostile came out of the woods then I would have enough time to react to defend myself (he's going to meet someone here that I don't think anyone could ever forget and if you did forget, then that is just sad).

I setup a small ring of stones in the centre of my camp and placed the twigs, bark and tinder I had gathered into a tepee, for now I will leave it alone so I can make a start on my shelter which I decided to make a simple lean-to, I went out into the forest again to find a large boulder, a few minutes later I found what I was looking for and used what I like to call my "Gale blast", by concentrating the winds into a sphere in-between my hands and then release it in the direction I'm facing thus creating large gust of wind that has enough force to blow away a fully grown human adult off of their feet and back at least 12ft, it blew the large stone out of the trees that surrounded it with only minimum damage to them, I then used my "Levitation" ability on the boulder, by focusing on an object I can make the winds encircle it and lift it into the air and move it to were ever I go or choose.

After placing my large rock down having its flat side facing the campfire and its back towards the river now all I need is some long dead sticks for the frame, some live wood with leaves or shrub branches for waterproofing just in case it rains.

I ran over to a group of dead trees with some medium sized shrubs surrounding them and begun to gather the necessary materials to make my shelter, 5 maybe 7 minutes later I had gathered about 20 sticks and shrub branches, I then started the process of leaning the long sticks against the boulder ten on each side to make it look like a tent with an opening in the middle, making a grab for the shrub branches I begun tiling the frame having the branches pointing downward so in the chance it does rain I wouldn't get wet.

Taking a few steps back to get a good look at my shelter and make certain there were no leaks, I then nodded my head in approval as I admired my handiwork, I was brought back from my thoughts at the sound of my growling stomach, feeling my hunger start to get to me I opened my ruck sack and fished out a pot, I then went down to the river and filled it half way with water, returning to my shelter I pulled out my flint and steel to start my campfire so I could boil it thus killing any impurity's.

With a quick strike of my steel, the fire was lit, putting more sticks on to fuel the fire further, letting it burn hotter while I made a sort of grill out of green twigs so then it wouldn't burn, weaving them over each other to keep them good and strong, while this was going on I begun to feel very grateful that I had taken the time to read everything in the books on the surface, otherwise I probably wouldn't have survived the night, well I might of, though I'm not too keen to see what will happen if I didn't, by the time I had finished making my grill the fire was really going I then placed it on top of the fire and then my pot of water and simply waited.

As the pot of water was boiling I turned my attention back to my ruck sack, reaching in I brought out three mushrooms, a knife and a cutting board, I then started to cut off the stalks of the mushrooms, throwing the stalks away I started to finely dice the mushroom heads and then putting them into the pot to cook, putting my hand into my left pants pocket I brought out some herbs that I found on the way to camp, I diced them up as well and chucked them into the pot, I had prepared everything now all I could do was wait until my mushroom stew was ready.

Hours later.

I was now inside my sleeping bag, awoken from my slumber; I heard something splashing loudly outside and a voice? I didn't know whether to be scared or excited that there may be a potential enemy/friend just outside my shelter, I laid there as still as can be contemplating on whether to confront it or to simply remain here and hope that it's not an enemy.

"Hello? Is anypony there?" said the voice.

"Drat." I thought to myself, looks like there's no way to avoid it.

"H-hello?" I said with uncertainty.

"Oh, so there is somepony there, did I disturb you?" the voice said in surprise.

"Well I was kinda sleeping." I replied sheepishly.

"Out here? In the Everfree forest?" the voice seemed even more surprised.

"Everfree forest huh? So that's the name of the place I'm in." I thought to myself deciding to file that away for later thoughts.

"Would you like some directions into town?" asked the voice with concern.

"Town? So there are people living on the surface?" I thought to myself in surprised at the possibility of meeting new people.

"Hello? Are you still there?" said the voice and it sounded worried, not wanting to make the person uneasy I replied.

"Yeah I'm still here… and I would love to have those directions please." I said politely.

"One moment, I'll be out in sec." I quickly added, as I got out of my sleeping bag, I then smoothed out the jacket I was wearing, ruffled up my cargo pants and ran my hands through my hair, trying to make myself look presentable, stepping out of the lean-to I made, I turned to my right and faced the river to see something… interesting, a strange giant purple snake that apparently had an orange moustache, his hair combed back matching the same shade as his moustache, after I had stopped walking it turned around to face me, only for its eyes to widen with what looked like fear.

Outside at the same time.

A certain purple scaled sea-serpent was taking a nice swim, admiring his reflection, feeling proud of his well-maintained orange moustache and combed back mane, when he noticed a campfire burning and a rock that was not there before, in the same clearing were he once met those six young mares in which, one of them was his saviour for repairing his precious moustache, feeling concerned for the pony he decided that he should ask if they were alright.

"Hello? Is anypony there?" I asked.

"H-hello?" was the startled reply I received and by the sound of the voice it was male.

"Oh, so there is somepony there, did I disturb you?" I said surprised that I got a reply.

"Well I was kinda sleeping." this time the voice sounded a bit embarrassed?

"Sleeping?! Out here?! In the Everfree forest?! Has this pony gone mad?!" he thought in aghast at the very idea of somepony living out here, were they could easily get hurt, deciding that it would be the best course of action to offer this poor pony some directions back to civilization.

"Would you like some directions into town?" I asked, desperately hoping that this pony was not insane, at first there was no reply which only seemed to make him more nervous that I might be talking a severely disturbed pony, so I decided to try to talk to him again.

"Hello? Are you still there?" I asked worried that he would not reply to me.

"Yeah I'm still here… and I would love to have those directions please." replied the voice in a polite manner, I suddenly let out a breath of relief, the young stallion had agreed to leave this dreadful place.

"One moment, I'll be out in sec." the voice quickly added, I could hear some rummaging from behind the boulder, I quickly checked my moustache and mane to make certain it was all in a neat order after all first appearances are everything, I then heard some hoof steps heading my way and then stop, I immediately turn around to great the young stallion only to see something that both shocked and terrified me.

Standing in front of me was the weirdest creature I ever laid eyes on, it was a tall biped creature, it had no tail and no fur just pale skin, it also had what looked like the claws of a dragon except there were no sharp nails appearing out of the ends, it wore clothes that consisted of a black hooded jumper-like jacket, grey cloth covered its legs, what looked like grey socks covered its claws but left the tips exposed and black shoes, but what caught his attention was its face, it mane was a mop of mid length, messy yet somewhat stylish dirty blond hair and it eyes were… stunning, deep sapphire blue, it was as if they held the ocean's within them.

"Umm… hello?" said the strange creature, immediately snapping himself out of his thoughts he did the most intelligent thing he could think of.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHH!" ( -_- eeyup he screamed.) Fear and natural adrenalin was flowing through his veins, he then swam as fast as he could away from the strange creature and to safety.

"Wait! It's not just my safety I have to worry about; I have to warn the citizens of Ponyville! Immediately!" he thought in a panic and rushed of faster than before to alert the ponies of this new threat.

Back with Ventus.

We now return to see our hero standing in the same spot as before, wide eyed and slack jawed as he looked on at the retreating for of the giant purple snake, he stood there stumped at what just transpired, no more than 5 seconds ago was he going to receive directions to civilization and then it just screamed and shot of fast than an arrow, only three words came out of his mouth that just echoed with confusion.

"What. The. Fuck?"

"Phew, that took longer than I thought, well I'm really tired cause it's like nearly 12:40 in the morning so I'm just gunna rap it up right here, thanks for reading, tell your friends about this story and goodnight."
