Bass Flight: Beginnings
A My Little Pony Fan Fiction
Chapter: 2
Welcome back guys. I'm hoping to please everyone with this chapter. I agree the first chapter was slopped. I also figured out foal is not the right word to use for my character but I am going to continue to use it. Mistake after mistake after mistake. Thank you again. (This chapter will be longer).

Twilights POV
I sat outside the foal's room with spike in silence for some time now. Spike hadn't been talking to me because he felt like I nearly got crushed by this guy. And I could tell he already had a grudge on him. I heard voices come from the room making me look towards it in anticipation. I had a strange connection with this foal, and I didn't understand why. The nurse ran through the door to twilight.
"He said he wanted to speak with the person who saved him." The nurse said before galloping down the hall to a doctor.
I took the hint and walked into the room, with spike in tow. As I walked in I instantly felt sick. The foal was burned over 60% of his body but had survived. His skin had blisters and scabs all over, and he didn't have much of a coat left on his torso.
"Are you the one who saved me?" Said the foal in a rather chipper attitude.
"... Yes. Are you in pain at all?"
"Yes. But I can fix that..." The foal clapped his hands together and yelled "Healing Rays!" and was slowly rapped in spider web like strands of golden light. There was a brief but light flash and then the foal was standing in front of me. 'How is this possible?' I was dumbfounded. 'Princess Celestia can't even heal anypony like that'
"My name is Bass Flight by the way.
Bass Flights POV
I didn't understand why she had her mouth agape like that. I do that all the time. I reached out and closed it with my hoof and she seemed to snap out of her funk.
"Is that a dragon?" I asked frantically trying to start a conversation.
"Leave me out of this." the dragon said with angry tone, seeming not to care he had just made a full recovery in under 10 seconds flat.
Stop
The dragon seemed normal enough to me. He had a green belly and was purple everywhere except for the spikes coming up the base of his spine to the top of his head, his emerald green eyes staring into my soul, and his short form was about ¾ the height of the mare. I looked back at the mare. She was breathtakingly beautiful. Her coat was the same color purple the dragon's scales were, more of a magenta than anything. Her dark blue main and tail both had a purple and pink stripe running Down slightly off center with a tiara placed snug on top of her head, a necklace hanging loosely around her neck. But this mare was different than all the others I knew... She was an alicorn. This meant she was either born like this or had been brought up to alicorn good by Princess Celestia herself. I decided to keep quiet.
The mare finally came out of her thoughts and back to reality and a very surprised expression crawled over her face.
"Uh... right" She said with hesitation. "My name is Twilight Sparkle, but you can call me Twilight or Twi if you want." Twilight said with a smile on her face. I began to stare. 'She is beautiful. Even more so than Princess Celestia." Twilight blushed a light red over her face and I knew she could read my thoughts. 'Well I guess it's time for me to stretch these out...' I watched Twilight spread a hardly noticeable look of confusion across her face. I began pumping my energy to my wings joint. The light stretched from the joint and began to form the muscles and bones of my wings, my skin started to stretch from the base of my joint. Finally (about 3 seconds later) the feathers stopped materializing. I stretched my wings, almost from habit. Twilight reached out in awe and touched my wing. She looked surprised when she finally made contact. She was surprised it was solid matter.
"Can I go with you...? Uh, Twilight? I don't really have anywhere to go." I hesitated. 'I don't know what you're doing but it's creeping me out.' She stopped rubbing my wings and looked at me with confusion.
"How did you know...?" An expression of honest question plastered on her face.
"You blushed remember." I said, feeling a heat rush to my face.
"Yes you may." She turned to the dragon and whispered something inaudible.
Twilight threw a look of approval at me. "Come now Bass. We will not go home yet. Spike go home and start organizing the books." Twilight said with a demanding yet kind tone.
The dragon nodded and ran as fast as his short legs could carry him.
"We need to prepare for you living with us… after all I would like to see how your hair and wings work." Twilight said with a little over toothy smile. 'She is overplaying happiness a little… or was she actually pleased with me asking to stay.' Twilight didn't seem to know I "said" anything.
"Ok Bass, while we're collecting the necessity's for your stay we will talk about your outburst. Now follow me, we have to check you out."
10 minutes later
I stood staring up at Twilight. She looked down with a smile and I shot a quick smirk back before pushing so hard off the ground and swinging my wings so hard it sent a 3 foot wind blast. I floated roughly 7 feet in the air from one push. 'At least my wings still work.' I started flapping my wings. Twilight slowly drifted up from the ground fixing her mane (that I had just blasted backwards) with a brush she had pulled from her saddle bag. She gave me an approving look.
"Hey twilight?" I asked with a grin.
She looked over at me and smiled. "Yes Bass?"
"Do you want to race?" I looked at her with a hopeful grin.
"Did somepony say race?" As I heard this I saw a Rainbow forming in the sky coming straight for us.
Thank you all again for reading. I am honestly writing to prepare for my huge essay coming up. I was never very good at writing so please give me some feedback. I should be posting at random intervals but right around every week.
Thanks again
Goof
