Mysterious Alicorn

Chapter 4

"You want me to stay?"

I nodded

Without a word she approached the bed and sat down on it next to me, slowly stroking my mane as you would a small dog.

I smiled and started trying to go back to sleep slowly I drifted off to sleep.

The next morning I woke up at the sound of twilight sparkle cooing

"D'awwwwwww"

I took in my surroundings and saw fluttershy was cuddled up next to me, curled into a ball with her nose tuked underneath her wing.

I blush deeply and carefully stand-up to avoid waking the pink maned pegasus.

Whispering Twilight asked me "I let myself in, do you want a tour of ponyville, if your up for it that is"

I smiled and nodded yes, then frowned and gestured at Fluttershy.

"I will leave her a note"

I nod and gesture at the door, signaling that I would wait outside.

After a few seconds Twilight emerged and signaled for us to depart. As we walked down the path deeper into ponyville she started making small talk

"So do you have any questions?"

I looked at her with exasperation and she laughed

"I was kidding of course"

As we approached the town square twilight was pointing out all the different places to hang out, buy things and eat. She asked if I wanted to go to sugar-cube corner then, seeing the confusion on my face, elaborated that sugar cube corner was a confectionary that Pinkie Pie Lives at.

I nodded and gave her a big smile.

We started heading that way, an easy task considering it was within eyeshot. Once we got there we ordered some "candy apples" and I found out my new favorite food (three guesses)

Pinkie-Pie found us and walked... well... I use the word walk figurativly with Pinkie, up to us.

"Hey you guys! What are you doing here? Where's Fluttershy? Hey you guys wanna come down to the lake with me and Rainbow Dash? We are gonna go for a swim!"

Twilight looked at me and I smiled nervously, not knowing how to swim was the least of my worries when it came to confronting water.

Twilight took my smile as a yes and agreed.

I had already formulated a plan, I was just gonna stand on the dock and smile as charmingly as I could. Easy enough, no need to get in the water after all.

When we arrived at the lake Twilight asked

"Where's Rainbow?"

"She's on her way, had some errand to run first."

Pinkie wasted no time getting in the water and twilight joined shortly after. I stood on the dock smiling and trying my best not to look nervous. As I stood there I heard the sound of clopping behind me and saw Rainbow Dash Approaching. I waved at her and she smiled at me, a devious smile I noted, I realized what was going on a second to late.

Rainbow Dash Pushed me into the water, a playful gesture but something that was not wholey apreciated by me.

As I fell in the water I could feel the same feeling that I felt in that dream I was having.

I felt the water close in around me and closed my eyes, once submerged I started thrashing about, unable to control my movements, terrifyed. I felt alone and suffocated in more way than one.

It seems that Twilight realized something was wrong because I felt myself being lifted out of the water and placed back on the dock, where I just closed my eyes and curled into the smallest ball I could fit into. I could feel the muscles in my legs spasming and tryed my best to shut out the rest of the world, my mind filled with nonsense, reeling in fear away from the of rest the world.

After about a minute of this I started feeling drops of water on my face and peeked an eye open to see 3 pony's looking at me with concern.

They weren't the ones dripping on me however. I could see the clouds coagulating above us into what were clearly stormclouds. It started raining then quickly got worse, until it was absolutly pouring down on our heads.

We ran to the nearest house (Thankfully fluttershy has to live near the lake to accomadate her water animals) And knocked on the door before growing impateint and just going in.

Fluttershy had woken up about an hour ago and was taking care of her animals when the storm had started.

Twilight looked at Rainbow Dash "Was this sheduled?"

"No"

"Well than why is it raining!"

"I dont know!"

As Fluttershy was trying to stop the arguing I crawled into bed and covered myself in the sheets, more embarresed for seeming so afraid than fearfull.

Fluttershy seemed to notice this and stopped trying to stop the arguing and came over to me.

"Are you ok?"

I nodded yes.

"What's wrong?"

I shrugged noncommittally

"If you don't want to talk about it I suppose it can wait until your ready"

I take my head out from underneath the covers and look at her and smile, even if the smile is only half hearted.

It seems conversation was going on behind me because Pinkie Pie yells

"SLUMBER PARTY"

I sigh.

A/N time for a slumber party segment!... yay!
