Chapter 2; Welcome Party/Settling In

I stepped into town after a few minutes, to find it deserted. I kept walking, from the details Fluttershy gave me, I was looking for a tree in the middle of town. I looked around until I found said tree. I walked towards it, when I entered I noticed it was dark, I enabled my night vision so I could see, only for lights to come on and blind me.

"SUPRISE!" I heard from around me. "Holy primus!" I yelled in return, despite barely being able to see I dived for cover, charging my cannon. The pink girl from before popped up startling me... again.

"Gah! What is it with you creatures and startling me?!" I yelled loudly, she only grinned and proceeded to yell some thing but my receptors were damaged. I grabbed at my helmet locks, pulling them off before I slid off my helmet, before analyzing the A.R.E(1) fins for damage.

I noticed a white... Unicorn? Walking to me, I carefully set my helmet aside. "Excuse me a second, I noticed what your wearing and I do believe it must not be comfortable." She said to me. "I'm used to it. Besides, this suit has saved me more times then I can count, but with all of you yelling my A.R.E. Fins are damaged." I said, she appeared to think for a second before smiling. "Ah well, if you ever need a new set of clothes just come by my house, oh and my name is Rarity." She said, I took a moment to notice her dress, while it wasn't completely formal it still looked nice. She has a very delicately curled mane and tail (I won't ask) with a shade of purple that kind of reminded me of my armor's purple paint.

And then I saw her eyes, I almost thought she was Autobot until I lost myself. "Um... are you ok? Need I say it's impolite to stare?" She asked, snapping me out of my daze. "Apologies, my name is Shockwave." I said, standing up to go to the snacks when I remembered I needed energon.

I looked around the table, becoming alarmed when I couldn't find any. "Excuse me, miss, is there any energon you happen to have?" I asked, the lavender unicorn looked at me quizzically.

"Energon? What is that?" She asked. I nearly lost it. "Scrap!" I cursed, if I didn't have energon I wouldn't have ammo and I would go into permanent stasis. "This is bad, if I don't have energon I'll... Wait." I looked to the snacks curiously, I picked one up and took a bite of it, finding it extremely good I quickly ate the whole thing.

I looked back to the lavender unicorn, she had a dark blue mane and tail with one stripe of pink and one of purple, each. Her eyes were purple too, not unlike Lord Megatron's after the dark energon incident I heard of. "Can you tell me what I just ate was?" I asked.

"It's called a cupcake." She replied. I grabbed another and ate it, smiling.

-one obnoxiously long party later-

I was left standing in the library with the six I had met during these long eight hours. "I appreciate the party, you six, but I haven't a place to stay." I said. "Well you could stay in the library but-" Twilight was saying but was cut off by Rarity.

"No, actually Twilight, can he stay with me?" She asked, shocking everyone even me. "Wow, Rarity, that was unexpected." Rainbow said, she was a cyan Pegasus with a rainbow colored mane and tail, she had a black sleeveless shirt and gray shorts on.

"Yeah, ya feelin ok sugarcube? Usually ya wouldn't be that generous." An orange earth pony(as I learned they were called) named Applejack spoke up. She had a red and orange flannel shirt and some jeans on, her blonde colored mane and tail were done up in a ponytail.

"Oh I'm sure he won't mind, he needs new clothes anyways." Rarity said, I Nodded, putting my helmet on and locking it. "Oh and if unicorns use magic, who will teach me?" I asked. Twilight grinned when I said that. "I will we begin tomorrow." She said.

"Well then Rarity, shall we?" I asked, holding the door for her. "Oh, such a gentle colt you are." She said before stepping out, I clicked on my night vision and followed, not knowing a dragon I met was plotting against me now.
