Well I'm so surprised at the amount of support I got from my first, albeit short, real chapter. I would especially like to thank: Legend of Derpy, Neon Night and Star Shine (one profile), Bronydudeshadow, Lespy, Supreme Phonics king, and Rocket Killer for all commenting on my story. Here is a muffin basket for each of you. From now on thoughts are in italicized text.This is still in first person for now with a few Pov changes. Well…. Here's the next chapter I hope I can make it longer:

I awoke to the smell of something burning…and pain. My head felt like it was being pounded with jackhammers and my body felt like it should be lying in a ditch along a highway somewhere. "What happened?" I thought as I raised myself to my elbows. I flipped onto my back, still on my elbows, and saw that my skin was red and had little columns of white steam coming off it. Pulling my arm up to my face I smelled myself.

"Aw! That smells like rotten eggs and burning hair!" I leaned in closer to my arm and with the small amount of saliva I could muster I spat on my arm. I recoiled as signals of pain coursed through up from my arm and throughout my body. Looking back down at my arm I saw only a discolored mark and a new Colum of steam. "Dang, this is going to hurt much worse latter on."

Painfully crawling on my hands and knees I unzipped the door to the tent. Sunlight assaulted my eyes telling me that night had fled. The first thing I noticed was instead of the hardened dirt circle that surrounded the campsite just moments before there was now a scorched black circle of burnt grass. Next I saw that the fire pit was gone, and so was the power outlet, nothing left but a fried laptop charger leading to the tent.

I knew needed help and thought that the neighboring campsite I saw last night would be the best (and probably only) place to start. I stumbled rather than stepped out of the tent and looked for the camp but it was nowhere to be found, no tent, no fire pit, no beer bottles, not even the hard packed dirt that showed the area of their camp! I continued to look around perplexed be the goings on and noticed that my cooler was gone too! "great, now what am I gona eat?" I had to find a way out of this forest. The trees seemed familiar… but not the same… they looked … bigger, healthier and thicker than they were before. But I was sure these were the same trees. As I stumbled through the vaguely familiar trees toward what I thought was the park center I noticed the air smelled cleaner and had no traces of gasoline or any smell you would associate with a second rate camping site. "Wherever I am I'm not North Carolina anymore."

Rainbow Dash's POV

"Woooooohoooooooo!" I felt great; the wind in my mane, the sun on my back and Twilight just helped me break the pony world record for biggest storm cloud ever moved last night over Everfree Forest. I had to come back to where the tremendous event took place just to bask in the glory of my greatest achievement, besides being the best flyer in all of Equestria of course. Now that I'm flying here undistracted I got to see all the weird things that happen here; like how the trees can grow and the weather can manage itself without anypony to help. And now there was a giant smoking crater in the middle of the forest, which is weird even for here. In the end curiosity won the epic struggle ageist common sense and I landed just outside the circle of soot… just in time to see a… creature limp into the woods mumbling to itself "gota find a way out, gota find a way out." This creature was the oddest thing I've ever seen, it walked on its hind legs, had only a little brown tuft of mane on the top of its head and its skin was RED. I was surprised it could talk, but not scared besides; Everfree Forest is a pretty weird place…right? I mustered up some courage, took a step forward (stirring up some soot as I did) and said the simplest most obvious thing I could say: "What ARE you?"

OC's point of view

"What ARE you?" I stiffened, which hurt because my body felt like one giant freaking sunburn, and I turned around quickly. "Oh, thank god finally some he-…." I stopped mid-sentence, for behind me, was a small, light blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane and tail. Its head was cocked to one side as if… no…. but if no it than…..?

"Did you just… talk?"

"Well yah, you say that as if I shouldn't."

"OH GOD! Ok, ok don't come any closer I–I just need a minute." I sat down on the forestry floor and put my head between my legs. My mind was racing at a mile a minute, trying to come up with any logical reason as to why a BLUE PEGASUS with a RANBOW mane no less, was TALKING TO ME. The only thing it came up with was: "dhuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

"Hey um… are you ok?" the Pegasus advanced toward me.

"Huh, oh yes-yes I'll be right with you one moment please." I waved my hand at her (judging by its voice) to keep her at bay. When my brain decided not to contribute more to its previous statement I thought that questions could give it a hand.

"Ok I have a few question to ask you, is that ok?"

"Sure I guess, as long as I get my fair share of them."

"Ok, one: where am I?"

"You're in the Everfree Forest"

"You say that as if I should know where that is."

"Well seeing as that's your… den over there shouldn't you?" she pointed behind her back to where the tent was set up. "Well I don't actually, HmHm, live there. Ok sorry sorry." Seeing her face redden with anger I quickly apologized for laughing at her uneducated guess about where I lived.

"Alright last question, for now I need a place to stay is there a town near something nearby?"

"As a mater a fact there is, follow me, I can ask questions on the way there."

"Alright just let me get my stuff first and we can be off." I gathered my bags from my tent and we walked off toward what I thought was the direction of the park entrance if it were still there.

"Hey I didn't catch your name."

"It's Rainbow Dash yours?"

"I'm Mitch nice to meet you."

And with that we left the clearing behind.

Well what do you think? Better? Worse? Please leave a review or PM me if you want. I still need the questions from chapter one answered (except the last one of course) and I'm always looking for more Ideas so let them role in.

Thanks for reading,

Spleedude :P
