Chapter 3: First Day in Ponyville
Ponyville | Day 1
After trotting for 3 minutes straight without a break, we've finally reached Ponyville. Though, my feelings went over this, but I had VERY bad spills while I walked for those very 3 minutes. Sure, Octavia laughed and laughed, and I suffered, but I found it neutral. She asked me certain questions, though to a few, I lied... or never spoke about it and changed the subject.
"Though, how were you able to use two instruments at a time?" She asked me. "Using magic. Look, I know it sounds like cheating, but I was only using a levitation spell. And I tell you, it is as difficult as... what is the certain place where ponies burn and suffer for the rest of their lives?" I asked. "Oh my! I... I never knew you were capable of THIS! I thought you were just a very nice gentlecolt that never talked about murder or evil." She said.
"Well, looks can be deceiving Octavia, so just count that as a factor." I said. We went a top of the last hill and we finally saw the little town that was Ponyville. "Here we are. Welcome to Ponyville!" She said. I gazed and my eyes grew wide in amazement of how it looked from the view point. "It's... so... beautiful..." I said.
"Just wait until you see the town and its folks!" She exclaimed as she started to run down the hill. "Come on!"
"A race?" I asked her. "You're challenging this fine mare to a filthy race?!" Octavia exclaimed in shock. "Yeah!" I exclaimed.
She gave off an aggressive grin and said, "Bring it on," We started to run towards the town which was a fair distance away. We kept running and running and my heart and lung raced to power my new body. I was quickly wearing out and slowed down for a moment, then started to run again. Though, this kept on until I was completely useless to run, though my body wasn't giving up yet.
Soon, the pain on my legs were gone and my lungs were filled with air and I started to run, this time giving everything I've got. I sprinted towards her and I was already neck in neck with her.
"That was quick of you!" Octavia exclaimed. "You'll see!" I exclaimed.
"You never stated rules right?" She asked. She gave off a sly smirk and took off the stopper of a large, heavy cart to block my path. But my horn reacted like in hyper-speed and disintegrated the cart, turning it into dust. "Tricky fellow I must say!" She complimented. "So are you!" I said. I grinned aggressively and gave it my all and arrived at Ponyville first, one hoof ahead of her.
My breath still wasn't going down and my pained legs weren't suffering too. "Wooo! Good game Octavia!" I cheered. "Y-yeah... You... too...!" She said between breaths. She gasped for one more breath to take and shook her head and said to me, "Welcome to Ponyville!"
I started to look at my surroundings and see all of the two-story buildings with ponies populated in them, doing their everyday businesses and so on and so forth. Some of the children were on the streets playing hop-scotch, a few were playing jump-rope, others were playing tug-of-war. The adults were shaking and cleaning their clothing, bed sheets, so on and so forth while a few were walking around with their special somepony or were just trotting solo.
"Wow!" I said in amazement. Octavia gave out a giggle and said, "It's as if this was the first time you've ever seen this."
"To be honest, I've never seen a little town so bright and happy, just like my place. But... there were downsides on my point of view." I said. "Do you want a tour now or will you find your way around?" She asked. "NOW I'll be finding my way around the town." I said.
"In that case," She paused for a moment and raced off to nowhere. I tilted my head 45 degrees and raised an eyebrow to where she went. She came running back with a saddlebag and a bag that was filled with many mysterious items. "Sorry about that, just had to fetch some things." She said.
She placed the saddlebag on my back and gave me the sack of bits. "Here's a few supplies to last you for a few days, and here's 2000 bits." She said.
"Whoa! Octavia!" I exclaimed.
"Don't thank me. Think of it as... a welcoming gift." She said. "Well... not too sure that giving me 2000 bits is a good idea..." I said. "Do you want it?" She asked me. "I need it." I responded. She gave a smile and turned her back on me. "Well, go ahead and find yourself a fitting house! Speak to the mayor if you need one." She said.
She started to trot back to her home just to where I was staring at. "2000 bits and some supplies eh...? Better make this last as soon as I can find a job around here and a house." I said. Folks around the town minded their business, some occupied of the necessary things to do or just relaxing and not paying attention to the new pony in town.
I started walking around and figured out the place for myself. The town hall, which I found first, was at the heart of Ponyville. The markets were just west from the town hall. Most residential buildings were at the east and south. Other establishments were scattered around, like a bakery shop that looks like a candy house and a blacksmith's shop exactly looking like a Ponyville house.
I was curious of what was north of Ponyville and checked the area. Slowly as I walked, buildings were starting to disappear and nature started to kick into the environment. A wooden gate blocked my path, but I easily unlatched the lock that held it together with the fence. I continued on the road and wooden fences surrounded the path I walked.
Soon enough, I found an apple tree and stopped there for a moment. My stomach growled crazily, as if I haven't eaten in days (which in fact I didn't.) I used the levitation spell that I learned by myself and took an apple out of the tree. I continued to use this spell and fed myself with it. The apple was so sweet, and at the same time at a large size. "Note to self: when ponies say that Sweet Apple Acres have the best apples, they mean it." I said.
When I looked back up, I saw an orange pony with a cart on her back looking at me in shock. The latches that held it together magically dropped to the ground and she swiftly bucked me in the face.
Area unknown
Once again, I've blacked out. I started to regain consciousness and my feelings; especially pain. My lower jaw felt like it was about to drop after that horrid kick to the face, but right now is the best case scenario (you're alive, that's what counts.)
"I was walkin' down the path back to Ponyville and I saw him eating an apple with a sack of bits in his saddlebag. I was thinkin' he was a thief, so I thought quickly and bucked 'im to get the bits and give it back to its respectful owner!" A familiar voice explained. "Though, something kicked into my head the second I looked at the face. He was just the pony that arrived today."
"Ma'am I understand that you accused him as a robber, but please do not do an act like this again." A firm voice said. "But be on the lookout for a prisoner. He escaped Canterlot and we've recently heard that he was in Ponyville. We're thinking that he has already blended in with the citizens here, so just be careful."
"Yes sir," the familiar voice said. I then heard steps and the door close. I opened my eyes, lifted my upper body, and looked at the left of me. "Aw, I'm sorry sugarcube. I didn't mean to-" I stopped her for a moment and said, "It's fine Applejack. I've... taken a lot of hits in my past. That what you did there was just top 10, and you're eight on the list." I said.
"I'm sorry, though if you think I did something wrong, just tell me." She said. "Well you did, but I forgive you. Just... look at the faces of ponies next time alright AJ?" I said. "Sure," She said.
"Though, you might be staying here for a couple of days because of your broken lower jaw. The doctor here already applied a healing spell on it and said that you need your rest for the while." She said. "Also, your stuff that you have is safe with the hospital staff, so I promise that I haven't stolen one bit nor will any of the staff steal one bit from that bag." She said.
"Y-yeah... I'll need to take a rest now AJ, thanks for bringing me to the hospital..." I said.
"Yer welcome. Just ask me anything you want or need when you need it." She said. She stepped out of the room and closed the door behind her. I went back down and spread my forehooves across the mattress. "My first day isn't going so well..." I said. I looked to my right and saw a doctor healing a patient with magic. I squinted my eyes and imitated the spell she did.
I focused on my jaw and slowly I felt that the fractured bones were moving back to its spots while it healed and reconnected to its place. My lower jaw was fully healed. The moment I stopped using the spell, the doctor came in with 2 x-ray pictures of my broken bone, more specifically my jaw. "A new pony in town I see!" The doctor exclaimed with glee. "Yeah, and just got kicked in the face too..." I said negatively. "Oh, don't take it too deep will you? Anyway, I just got your results of your broken jaw. You have fractures, scattered pieces and broken bones in the first picture here." He said while he placed the first x-ray photo onto a clipboard with light.
Once he placed it on the clipboard, I saw the damage that Applejack's kicks can do. The roots of my teeth were shattered and scattered in pieces, the base of my jaw was cracked in half while chips of the bone were scattered too, and the bone that connected it with the upper jaw was snapped in half, the main piece just sideways in my mouth. I stared at the image in horror because of what she has done to my bones.
"The image that you're currently looking at is when you came to the hospital, when that mare bucked you in the face. But on the right, you can see that the healing spell that I've used on you really improved." He then placed another picture of the x-ray onto the clipboard with light.
The second picture had all of my teeth roots in its position, but it was mostly cracked and nearly pieced together. The broken-in-half jaw was pieced together, but the place where it was broken had a noticeable crack running through it. The part which held my upper jaw was back in place, but it was just like the lower jaw, noticeable cracks.
"Oh my God..." I said.
"We've sped up the recovery time because we knew that sooner you would be waking up in pain, you wouldn't want that do you?" He said. "Ye... pain is just... painful..."
"Well, all you need now is rest, you can leave by tomorrow. And for today you'll be eating liquids." He said. "Oh, I can eat solid foods just fine." I said. "Now now, let's not be hasty. Time heals all wounds, remember?" He asked me. "Heard it ten times. I can bite," I said. "I wouldn't want to risk it if I were you. By tomorrow you can leave the hospital, deal?"
"Do you always ask questions instead of saying it?" I asked him.
He suddenly laughed and said, "It's just what I do." He left the room and I loudly groaned in annoyance. "Stuck in here with my mouth fully fixed... what now?" I asked.
"Hi mister!" A voice from my right said. I turned to the direction of where it came from and a green little filly who was an earth pony with a broken right forehoof greeted me. "Uh, hi..." I said. She noticed my frown on my face and asked me, "Why be down? Why can't you just be happy mister?" She asked. "I'm... going through a tough time here... so..."
"I understand mister,"
"Call me Blaze," I said.
"Okay mister Blaze! Whatever you say," She said.
"Just minus the mister 'kay?"
"Okay Blaze!"
"So, what's your name?" I asked.
"I'm Green Leaf, nice to meet a new pony in town." She said.
"So you noticed?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'm familiar with the ponies around here."
"How familiar?" I asked her.
10 MINUTES LATER
"And then there are the Elements of Harmony! Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack!" She said finally ending her rampaging knowledge of the folks of the town. I listened to every single word that she said and never spoke as I looked at the roof in amazement. My eyes were kept wide open, my mouth was wide open too, and I was frozen like a statue. "So, those are the ponies that I know!"
I still was frozen, amazed by her knowledge of everypony that was in town. "You... must really be the first kid I ever spoke to that actually made sense of something." I said "That's actually my talent sir! Even though I'm called Green Leaf, we all have a talent. Though, talents usually follow a certain pony's name." She said. "You see, this is my cutie mark!" She showed me her left flank and I saw a list filled with checks. "My talent is remembering everything that I encounter. Once I want or need to remember, it suddenly just pops into my head like when you're looking through a checklist!"
"What's your talent?" She asked me. "Well... at a point, that's my problem." I showed her my right flank and found it blank without any symbol. "A grown pony like you should already have a cutie mark. I asked Miss Cheerilee if ever grown ponies don't get their cutie marks yet. She said it isn't possible." She said. "But with a certain pony like you, I can prove Miss Cheerilee wrong! And you would be a great addition to the Cutie Mark Crusaders!"
"Wait, the CMC? As in Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, and Scootaloo?" I asked.
"Yeah!"
"Well..." I now thought of what would I be doing and asking and answering a few questions that might be asked from this filly. But one question in my mind popped up, so I asked myself: Mister, can you please come with me in school?
"Blaze, can you please come with me in school?" She asked the question I asked myself.
"Uh, sure...?" I was supposed to say in my head. "Great!" She exclaimed. "WAIT! No! Uh-"
"Come on, it'll be fun!" She said.
"I... Um... I need to..." I soon raced across my mind trying to find a good excuse to pull off and a particular one burst out of me. "I need to feed my... cats...?"
"Silly! Just please come with me?" She asked me. "Argh! Okay. I'll go just for you. But only once your arm is fully healed." I said. "Well, tomorrow I'll be going to school and by then, the doctor said it'll be good as new. Though I still have to keep the cast..." She said.
"A'ight, then it's settled,"
I plopped back down onto my bed and thought about what I can do to pass the time. "Wait a friggin' minute... I got it!" I exclaimed.
A few hours later
The doctor soon came back with a full glass of water and a pill which would heal my broken jaw. "Here Blaze Wing, you'll need this to heal your bone." He said. He saw that I was sleeping on the bed, though my head didn't show. "Blaze Wing, time to wake up." He said as he lightly shook my shoulder. He then shook me harder, but I had no response. He lifted the covers, but only found a pillow and a note on the pillow.
Doc, I already treated my jaw with a healing spell that I learned from one of your employees. You may say rest is the best medicine, but with magic, nothing is impossible.
Blaze Wing
He chuckled lightly and said, "Another patient that learned how to heal himself...? I think the private treatment room may have been a good idea..."
Town Square
I was trotting around and looking to where I should go next. The library came up to my mind so I can visit Twilight and ask her a few questions. I arrived there in a few minutes sharp and knocked on the door, no one answered. I saw Twilight by the window with Stone Heart arguing about something. I noticed that he was the one silencing Twilight and him going loud, very loud. Though, I didn't hear his dictator-like voice since it was nearly like Hitler's, but without that German accent.
I knocked again and called out, "Um, hello? Can Twilight please come out?"
Stone Heart made the door fly open and a strong breeze followed. "No one allowed!" Stone Heart exclaimed. He shut the door closed and I heard a lock mechanism lock the door. I was frightened from his shouting and froze for a moment.
"What... the hell...?" I soon saw the shadow of my hoof stretch further and further and I looked at the sun. "Sundown..." I said. "Where to stay...?" I continued. So one place popped up into my mind and I decided to head for her place.
Octavia's house
"Come in! Come in!" Octavia said. "Thanks for letting me stay here Octavia. I promise that once I find a place to stay, I won't bother you coming here." I said. "Oh no worries! You can stay here for as long as you like!" She exclaimed.
"Thanks Octavia, I dunno where I'll be sleeping tonight if it wasn't for you." I said.
"Just stop thinking and make yourself at home." She said.
"YO YO YO! DJ in the house!" ? exclaimed.
"Ugh! If you will excuse me." Octavia said as she left her living room to go to another room. She disappeared from my sight once she entered a specific room, notably a door with a record on it. I looked around and found 2 couches, one of different size. I sat on the 3 pillow couch and waited for minutes. I grabbed up to my side, but felt nothing. I soon realized that my violin was still at the hospital, so were the other things I carried. "Argh! First priority for tomorrow, get my violin." I noted.
The door squeaked open and I looked up. Octavia soon came out with 2 more ponies. One was a pegasis. He was orange, had a simply hairstyle and wore shades and a particular little amulet on his neck which was a purple gem surrounded by gold. He had a pixelated piece of gold as his cutie mark. The other one was a white unicorn. She wore shades or... goggles that covered her eyes. A music note was her cutie mark. "A guest eh? Let's welcome him with some sweet wubs! What do you say Sky?" Vinyl asked.
"P-please... more budder records..." The pony, identified as Sky, said. Vinyl blasted out laughing uncontrollably and said, "Why *laugh* do you keep saying - hahaha - butter?!" She exclaimed. "Oh, it's because I love budder. But what the hell is gold?!" He exclaimed.
"Look, you've been here for nearly a month Sky, and Vinyl, please no... flubstep for tonight please." Octavia demanded.
"It's called dubstep, and I ain't stoppin'! Not one night!" Vinyl exclaimed.
"I'm here you know." I said. "Oh, almost forgot. Sky, Vinyl, I want you to meet Blaze Wing. He was wandering around and about and came here to Ponyville. He has nowhere to stay and even bitless to say the least. He brought his violin with him and I must say he's a great violinist." Octavia said about me.
"Aw... stop it! Anyways, thanks for greeting me to your friends. But may I talk to the fine gentlecolt here in private?" I asked. "You may, use the bedroom upstairs, that is also where you'll be sleeping tonight."
"Thanks Octavia," I said.
"Hey, new guy, wanna hear a delicious lick of my sounds?" Vinyl asked. "Vinyl! I'm so sorry about my roommate, she's really into this... dubstep. I swear it makes me want to go on a rampage..."
"Oh it's fine. Besides, I like dubstep." I said. "So Vinyl, how about later tonight? After I speak with Sky, I'll head up to your room and listen to your beats." I said. "YEAH! Another pony with some class!" She shouted.
"So... you like orchestrals AND whatever she likes?!" Octavia exclaimed.
"Derp, yes."
She stared in horror and remembered the sentence I told her, Looks can be deceiving Octavia, so just count that as a factor. She slowly backed up into her room and closed her door.
"Now, Sky please follow me." I said. "Where are we going? Don't tell me you're gay!" He exclaimed. "No, I just want to ask you a few questions." I said. "Well, you two go ahead and have your little chat, I'll be in my room if you need me." Vinyl said.
I dragged him up the stairs and into the guest room and closed the door shut. I locked the door tight and even placed that latch that kept the door closed for a while.
"Okay... be honest. I know you, but I just want to clear out a few things. Are you... Skydoesminecraft...? More known as Adam." I said. His eyes began to grow wide and asked, "How do you know me...?"
"I'm a recruit of the Sky army. Pleased to meet you Sky." I said as I shook his hoof. "Bu... Do you know anything about this?!" He exclaimed. "No, but now I know where you disappeared to. Next question, how did you get here?" I asked. "I... was just revisiting the Mine Little Pony mod for Minecraft and my computer just sucks me in! What the hell?!"
"Okay, last question, how long have you been here?" I asked.
"Well... I've been here for almost a month."
"A month?! It was just a week ago when you disappeared?!" I exclaimed.
"A lot of... crazy poop's going on here my Private. But together we can-" I stopped him on a word and I made my sentence saying, "Yes... destroy all squids. I know, but you don't have to be your jokey self. You can just be who you are, I don't need you to be Skydoesminecraft, I want you to be Adam." I said.
"Well that's... the first time I actually heard a recruit say that to me... thanks." He said.
"Anyways, didn't you make a promise to that DJ looking pony?" He asked.
"I'd *yawn* better get to sleep... Don't want to go on like this."I said. I jumped onto the bed and placed the sheets on me with magic. "Okay recruit, you'd better rest." He said.
"Shut up..." I said.
By the way, this is the only time he's going to appear. No, I do not have a close tie to him. I just wanted to have a few random characters appear on my story. That's right! RANDOM CHARACTERS TO APPEAR! Anyways, if you're going to ask why I placed Sky for this time only, I just want to have those people who might come in handy later on. Butter armor anyone? :) Again, please leave a review, follow or favorite and tell me how you feel about my story.
