"[BEEP]"
How the hell I can make a GPS using medieval pieces, this is just incredible.
Two days I could say, one day since the whole fiasco with Nightmare Moon happened, and you know, I was deciding to no enter that party before Twilight sensed my thoughts in my dace and dragged me into the party.
I saw similar customs to the ones that are practiced on Earth, decorations, music, and games, guess those things are basic activities and traditions that are made around the universe if there are other alien species.
I didn't see liquor even though, a shame, as an astronaut it is hard to get even a beer on any random bar on either the Earth or the Moon, they always ask you for your papers or something like that.
New thought, I haven't shown it a lot, but I'm very impacted of finding other life in another planet, just like science fiction films, now the only sentient beings on the universe as far as I could say are humans, ponies, dragons, mmm wow there are a lot...
Here isn't just one species, but various of them, I could even say that some random animals in the forest have a certain degree of intelligence compared to the normal animals back on Earth, for an example that a species that I saw back at the Everfree forest, could be bunnies, when I looked at them they had a sense, for the way they acted, I could have analyzed them more if Fluttershy didn't emm use her weird power to communicate apparently.
I met better those 5 mares, every single one with a different personality, what else is new?
Also, I haven't left this guest room, I suppose, I really don't want to go out right now and watch these ponies doing their daily tasks, even though, that would be actually interesting.
Damn it, I really need to find a way to connect to the Comesp satellites, I know that I can send a signal announcing that I'm not dead, something that could cause a rescue mission if they simply don't decide to help me then.
Essentially, these satellites relay in radio waves from one place to another, catching signals that fire up to them from a ground station, that in this case, it would be either the lander or a GPS, amplifying them so they have enough strength to continue. Those signals can carry anything radio signals can carry on the ground, including telephone calls and Internet data to radio and TV broadcasts even though we are in another total different galaxy. These satellites essentially overcome the problem of sending radio waves, which shoot in straight lines, across the wormhole, we could call these interstellar signals, in other words, calling with a traditional landline. You can communicate anywhere you can get a signal, but you and the receiver both still need to be within a range of GPS masts, another reason why I need to find that lander, however, you can be on top of one of this planet's highest mountains or deep in one of those magic forests, and you would be entirely free from any kind of telecommunications infrastructure, which gives you geographic freedom and an instant ability to communicate in a basic form.
Sooo, in short, I'm trapped on this planet until I can either build this or find my lander for a more complex communication, great, this must be the most stupid thing in this universe history because it also played me the joke of transforming me into a... pony?
"How I was transformed into this, " I mumbled.
"Need any help?"
S**t, I suppose that he must knock before entering this freaking room.
But actually, I could use it to seek more information on their magic and technologies, hopefully finding at least a part of the components, plus I need to hack it using binary codes.
Sigh, "Thank you, Spike, " I began tiredly, "ummm do you have books about emm magic enchantments and all that stuff"
He raised a curious brow at my statement.
"Why would you like to read a magic book, you... are an earth pony, " Spike retorted.
That was racist.
And now time to invent a story.
"Well Spike, " I began, "umm from the land I came ummm earth ponies also control magic"
"Really?" Twilight pronounced with suspicion on her voice, "then that's how you got that super force and magic umm protection?"
"Upps sorry Twilight but you weren't even close this time, " I said with an amused face.
Hey, what the hell...
Sigh, this isn't even my house.
She decided to enter and see what was I doing, as she moved through the old room, she stopped at the table, where all my work was in the process if I find the pieces for building that GPS.
"What is this.." curiosity clearly on her voice, as both Spike and I came closer to the table.
Oh, she wasn't even looking at the aims of creating the GPS, but at one of the notes, I made for designing it.
Yep, after a whole night if practice, I got to write mildly well with these hooves, at least really, also discovered a weird factor of their anatomy, their hooves can bend, it's really weird, gotta study it more.
"Major, " she began while giving me space to see the paper, "what is this language?"
What... I didn't write that in Spanish but in English.
And apparently, every single word these ponies said in perfect English.
"Excuse me?" I asked with a frown, "English?"
"English?" Twilight said with confusion, "what is that language?, I have never seen these words before, ¿is that the language of your land? do they all know how to make that beeping sound you make sometimes, and ho-"
Okay needed to cut her, hate these questions.
But, what do they mean that they don't recognize what is written there, it could be with my writing? Na I don't think so, I mean, it's bad, but not really bad...
That's quite an achievement for an overnight of a how-to basic for writing with hooves.
It clearly showed the words in English, I don't understand...
I'm not talking English, I must be talking a language from these ponies, but what is it? and why does it sounds like if I was talking in English, I heard my Spanish and even those mares were skeptic and curious about the things I said because they didn't understand my native language, as well I could hear what I said in that language.
And also, how did she heard me swearing, well swearing behind that beeping sound if I was all of this time in the room, it was really that loud?
"One, do you hear that sound..." I began, and after some few moments of silence I continued, "It's the sound of silence, and I wish it could stay that way"
She sent me a glare as Spike for some reason chuckled a bit.
"And two, I don't think I'll tell you anything right now," I said.
"Oh come on! you have been two whole days in this room! plus, you are refusing to talk me off this simple question... " she exclaimed somewhat frustrated.
Damn, I have only been in this place for one day and she talks like if I was one of her friends.
"And I'm planning to maintain in that way, for now, " I asserted.
After a short silence Twilight continued with that frown, "Applejack asked me for some help in the sweet apple acres, and it wouldn't be bad for her and me some extra help, without mentioning Spike"
"Sorry, but I think I'm going say no to that offer, have a good day Twilight"
"That wouldn't be bad, " a voice snapped both Twilight and me, coming from Spike, "you could also meet some ponies, the only interaction you had was back at the party"
Nope, no way.
"Aaand, " Twilight started again, "didn't Princess Celestia said that you were here to learn from us?"
"Yep, but I can also decide if I can go or not," I said hotly, really starting to irritate me somehow.
Again silence, as Twilight makes a mischievous face.
"You are going, " she acknowledged determined.
Wait what? SHE THINKS SHE CAN ORDER ME!
"Sorry? what did you just say?" I said with an angry frown.
"You are going Major, so let's get going, we better not get late, " Twilight said while heading to the entrance.
Spike with a grin on his face exited the room at that statement
"Do you think you can order me?!" I raised my tone just a little bit.
She simply shrugged before speaking again, "come on, Spike is already in the door"
"What! I'm not going, " I said while quickly sitting back at the chair in my human way, which also caused a curious glance on her but didn't comment anything, "I said that I'm not going, and I'm not going to go!"
"I hate you..."
Guess what, she dragged me again out of the library, she literally obliged me to come with her, just like back in the party, damn it, why it must be this way, I don't want to be here, I'm hungry, I'm tired, and I really want to go back the library and sleep, I've been most of the morning working on something that will not work if I don't find the correct pieces.
Man, I hate to carry these apples, plus before of this walking I needed to help to recollect them, it was really hard for me, I left my teeth marks on various of them because I didn't know how to hold items correctly with the anatomy of my mouth.
I was born on a city, and back on Earth this work of farming is no longer made primarily by humans but by robots, so most of the farms in Colombia and the United States are automatized, on other countries like Russia, there are still humans making that work, that it's really rare being sincere.
"I heard you..." Twilight mumbled to my left ear, damn she is now in the new list of annoying extraterrestrial-aliens-which-are-ponies-list.
"Ouch!" again? another hit on my head.
"No Nope Nope..." Spike continued throwing apples out of a basket in the Twilight's side, while he was mounted on her back.
"Thank you kindly for helping me guys," Applejack stated cheerfully, "I bet Big McIntosh I could get all these Golden Delicious in the barn by lunchtime, If I win, he's gonna walk down Stirrup Street in one of Granny's girdles"
"No problem at all, Applejack, am I right Major?" Twilight said after looking at me with that mischievous smile on her muzzle.
"Yes of course, obviously not including kicking the trees and then recollecting those apples!"
"You ain't not fond of farmwork as I can see," Applejack stated with a raised brow.
"Wow, how perceptive you are Applejack," I replied with a tired face, "when are we going to have umm lunch anyway"
Please that the word lunch is on their vocabulary.
Twilight released a sigh, "I'm glad that we have the same goal of lunchtime, all this hard work is making me hungry"
"I know, right?" Spike said before throwing an apple on Twilight's head.
"Puh-lease, Spike, you've been lounging on my back all morning while we worked," Twilight stated.
"Exactly, you two are taking so long, I missed snack-time"
"Eh, I guess we better get some food," Twilight said with an embarrassed smile.
You lazy son of a- sigh, I can't say anything about him, he is a kid after all.
"Yo, Spike," that caused him to look at me, "what are you doing anyway, why are you throwing the apples away?"
He turned back to the basket throwing away other apples.
"Because I'm looking for...A-ha!"
"What was is it?...oh" I asked before my skepticism.
A freaking apple, that's why he emptied the half of that apple basket! how are these two mares not angry with him, he had been throwing away the Applejack's merchandise, and she hasn't a trace of rage on her features.
"An apple..." I started again with my bored tone.
"Oh Spike, that looks delicious!" Twilight stated when she saw the shining apple... oh too late my dear.
Spike ate the apple, guess that was being expected by everyone?
"Spike..." Twilight said with a trace of disappointment on her voice, yep, he did nothing and took the best part in the final, that is justice for you all, what a great model.
But, as I said earlier, he is only a kid.
"What?" Spike asked rhetorically, I think so, after gulping.
Holy F**K!
"Damn!"
I was startled at the sudden burp of green fire, envolving into a scroll, okay now this is weird, how did a scroll, magically appeared from those green flames...
Magic, the only answer everyone has said to me when I see things that could be considered weird for a human...
Sorry, that is considered weird for humans.
"It's a letter from Princess Celestia," Twilight said with attention.
We stopped walking for hearing what Princess Celestia needs to say.
"Aaaand is it normal that he does that?!" I asked with awe.
Before anyone could respond to that question, Spike began to read the contents of the magical letter.
"Hear ye, hear ye," Spike began trying to mimic a royal voice, "Her Grand Royal Highness, Princess Celestia of Equestria, is pleased to announce the Grand Galloping Gala to be held in the magnificent capital city of Canterlot, on the 21st day of, eh, yadda yadda yadda, cordially extends an invitation to Twilight Sparkle plus one guest"
"The Grand Galloping Gala!" both Twilight and Applejack exclaimed in happiness.
"¿The Grand Galloping Gala?" I mumbled to Spike ina question form, I think that I've heard that name before.
"It is a girly dance full of boring music and other boring things, hosted by Princess Celestia," Spike responded mumbling with a new bored face similar to the one that I currently have...
Or actually, it was changed by awkwardness at the emotion of these mares for their oh so great Grand Galloping Gala...
Oh! I remember, Princess Celestia told me that I needed to attend that celebration for afterward of its finalization began with their questions, great.
I'm hoping that Princess Celestia is keeping her promise of looking out for my lander.
Huh, I'm still impressed with how quickly she believed in my words, she did that she observed something very different in me.
Just like Nightmare Moon.
Spike burped again, this time from the green flames tickets appeared.
"Look, two tickets," Spike announced.
"Wow, great! I've never been to the gala, have you, Spike?" Twilight asked.
"No, and I plan to keep it that way, I don't want any of that girly frilly frou-frou nonsense"
Yep, I'm with you in that Spike.
"Aw, come on Spike, a dance would be nice" she answered Spike.
"Nice? It's a heap good more than just nice, Applejack began excited for the news, "I'd love to go land sakes...If I had an apple stand set up, ponies would be chowin' our tasty vittles 'til the cows came home, " I think she is daydreaming, I mean, she is just looking up to the sky, "do you have any idea how much business I could drum up for Sweet Apple Acres? why, with all that money, we could do a heap of fixin' up 'round here, we could replace that saggy old roof, and Big McIntosh could replace that saggy old plow, and Granny Smith could replace that saggy old hip"
"You really want to go there don't ya'?" I said with amusement.
"Yep, I'd give my left hind leg to go to that gala," Applejack responded.
"Oh, well in that case, would you like to—" Twilight was interrupted by... no KIDDING man!
I quickly took on step backward letting Rainbow Dash crash upon the two mares, hey what could I have possibly done in that situation?
And, congrats Miss Dash, you just threw to the hell the apple recollection work, except for me who was still with one of the baskets with apples.
"Ugh, are we talking about the Grand Galloping Gala?" Rainbow Dash asked in knowledge, like if she had been overhearing this conversation.
I took off the basket of apples and put it carefully in the ground.
"Spike are you alright..." I said while taking off my concentration in the chat these mares were currently having, seeing him looking backward while covering his mout-
"[BEEP]" damn that thing of the magic green fire startled me again.
"Another letter from Princess Celestia?" bothe Spike and me mumbled, we really didn't want to gain the attention of the other girls.
Spike cleared his throat ad he began in a very low tone, "Hear ye, hear ye. Her Grand Royal Highness, Princess Celestia of Equestria, is pleased to announce-" he looked at the letter in a confused way, "didn't I just read this letter"
I simply shrugged with a look that incited him to continue, "capital city of Canterlot, on the... give me a second, umm yadda yadda yadda, cordially extends an invitation to... Major Jose San..ta..cruz," he immediately became confused at the letter, judging by the look he sent to it and then to me.
Pronouncing my last name is still tricky my fellow young dragon, but yes, I suppose she sent this to me for the whole reunion thing.
I should have said no to the thing of attending the Grand Galloping Gala, maybe I should have asked her first what was that whole think about... and from this newly acquired information about the event... ehhh.
He burped, one ticket appeared just the same way as the last ones.
Oh great, just great, If I had solely interest in going to this gala...
"Spike, you can't tell anyone that I have also a ticket, including Twilight"
"I don't know Jose, I can't ju-"
"Please... it's important, and... I don't think Twilight should know about this"
A sigh came from him, a good sign, "Emmm okay, but I only know that is better that Twilight know about this earlier, she really doesn't like whe-"
"Listen to that, I am starving, don't you think so guys.." Twilight said looking at us.
"Huh?" Spike and I asked, that previous statement snapping both of us of our last conversation.
"I don't know about you, but I can't make important decisions on an empty stomach, so I'll, uh, think about it over lunch and get back to you two, okay?" Twilight said with a worried trace on her voice while heading to us.
I quickly signaled Spike to give me the ticket, which without any hesitation he willingly placed it on my hoof.
Now gotta find a way to hide this along the route.
Twilight has seemed worried all the way down coming to Ponyville, time to be the psychologist here.
"Twilight, " I began saying softly, "are you alright?"
She sighed, "It's just that, I can't decide who I will give the extra ticket..."
She then looked at me with a very worried expression.
"Do you want it also?" Twilight said with fear in her voice.
"No!" I snapped not in a harsh way, "don't worry about me, I'm in the side of Spike about that lame party"
Spike looked at me with a skeptic look.
"Oh, thanks Celestia... I need to decide, it's just that both of them have good reasons to go, and both of them are also friends"
"So, who you gonna give the ticket to, Twilight?" Spike questioned.
"I don't know Spike, but I really can't think straight when I'm hungry, so where should we eat?"
"Carajo!"
Pinkie Pie flew put of the window and crashed upon us, how did she know exactly when to appear, no one knows that question.
"Gah! Bats! Bats on my face! Help!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed moving her limbs in the front of her face, like if trying to make something to go away, "Wait, these aren't... tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala?!"
"Ummm yes?" I said to her, immediately causing a reaction in both Twilight and Pinkie.
Pinkie smirked in excitement for the news, while Twilight send immediately and annoying glare towards me.
"It's the most amazing incredible tremendous super-fun wonderful terrifically humongous party in all of Equestria! I've always always always wanted to go!"
Oh no not again...
"Oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me
Oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me
Hip hip
Hooray!
It's the best place for me
For Pinkie..."
"Pinkie I don't think that..."
She shut me up by covering my muzzle with a limb, and after moments of silence, she began again after releasing her limb from covering my mouth.
"With decorations like streamers and fairy-lights and pinwheels and piñatas and pin-cushions, with goodies like sugar cubes and sugar canes and sundaes and sun-beams and sarsaparilla, and I get to play my favorite-est of favorite fantabulous games like Pin the Tail on the Pony!"
Damn, now this worst than I thought.
Twilight and I are sharing the face of awkwardness, Spike seemed both neutral and at the same time with awkwardness.
"Oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me
Oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me
'Cause it's the most galarrific superly-terrific gala ever
In the whole galaxy
Wheee!"
Yep, finally, it is over.
"Oh thank you, Twilight, it's the most wonderful-est gift ever, " Pinkie said excitedly to Twilight.
"Um, actually—" before Twilight could continue she was interrupted by a new voice.
"Are these what I think they are?" oh shoot, not this one.
"Uh-"
Poor Twilight, being annoyed by her friends.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Pinkie shouted excited, "Twilight's taking me to the Grand Galloping Gala in Canterlot"
"Her wait a minute Pinkie, Twilight never said that she was going to take you to that umm gala, " I said with a glare.
This mare is saying s**t.
"The gala?" Rarity began, "I design ensembles for the gala every year, but I've never had the opportunity to attend. Oh, the society, the culture, the glamour! It's where I truly belong, and where I'm destined to meet him"
"Him?" Spike and I again declared at the same time.
This lizard said it like if he was worried about that, as a mix of disappointment and curiosity was mixed in Spike's face.
"Him ... Who?" Pinkie proclaimed.
"Him.." Rarity said in a dreamy stance, "I would stroll through the gala, and everyone would wonder, who is that mysterious mare? they would never guess that I was just a simple pony from little old Ponyville, why, I would cause such a sensation that I would be invited for an audience with Princess Celestia herself, and the princess would be so taken with the style and elegance that she would introduce me to him, her nephew"
"Princess Celestia has a nephew? and what is his name?" I asked.
"Prince Blueblood, " Rarity declared after a sight, "the most handsome, eligible unicorn stallion in Canterlot. Our eyes would meet, our hearts would melt. Our courtship would be magnificent, he would ask for my hoof in marriage, and of course, I would say, yes! we would have a royal wedding, befitting a princess"
"Oh wow, so romantic," I reacted to her dream words in a sarcastic tone.
Rarity ignored my previous statement, and after another sigh, she continued, "which is what I would become upon marrying him, the stallion of my dreams"
"Rarity, I haven't deci-" Twilight started but couldn't proceed for being interrupted again, damn I can see the irritation being formed on her features.
"Twilight, I simply cannot believe you would invite Pinkie Pie so she can... party, and prevent me from meeting my true love, how could you? hmph"
Oh my goodness, does this mare know the meaning of the wor-
"Hey!" the sudden exclamation of Spike interrupted my thoughts.
"The frick?" I mumbled while raising a brow, where did Fluttershy come from, just in time for this present inconvenience being happening.
"Angel, these are perfect, " Fluttershy states after seeing the tickets that were brought to her by her emm pet?
Tricky lil' rabbit
"Uh, listen, guys, I haven't decided who to give the extra ticket to"
Damn, I'm getting tired of doing this, after eating something I'm going directly to the library, Twilight is not going to confront me in the dilemma she is in right now.
"You haven't?" Rarity and Pinkie Pie said at the same time.
"Umm, excuse me, Twilight, I would just like to ask, I mean, if it would be all right if you haven't given it to someone else..."
"You? You want to go to the gala?"
"Twilight, " I began getting near her, which was as uncertain about this whole thing as I am, "I think that we should get going, you look pretty tense right now"
A sigh from her, "at least you understand me in this one"
"-there's loons and toucans and bitterns, oh my! Hummingbirds that can really hum, and buzzards that can really buzz. White-blue jays, and red jays, and green jays, pink jays, and pink flamingos!" Fluttershy finished her reasons to go, which frankly, we only put attention more or less to the half of what she said.
"Gee, Fluttershy, it sounds... beautiful...? buuut I think that we need to go right now" Twilight asserted nervously while slowly getting farther from them, with Spike and me following her.
"Wait just a minute," Rainbow Dash said from one of the roofs.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I exclaimed with somewhat rage, now they are annoying me.
At least they are her friends.
"Rainbow Dash! where you following us?"
"No, I mean, yes, I mean, maybe, look, it doesn't matter, I couldn't risk a goody-four-shoes like you giving that ticket away to just anypony," Rainbow Dash replied.
"Wait just another minute," also she?!
"Applejack, were you following me too?" Twilight said indecisively.
"No, I was followin' this one to make sure she didn't try any funny business still trying to take mah ticket," Applejack stated.
"Your ticket? that ticket belongs to me"
"Ohhh, I suppose that the correct decision is you? I'm I right Rainbow Dash?"
"Yes! I mean... Twilight needs to decide who is the best option"
"But Twilight's taking me!" Pinkie Pie suddenly exclaimed, making Rarity began an argument with her, as I keep talking to Rainbow Dash.
"Yep, but you are insinuating that you are that right decision, ...what if someone else gets chosen," I answered hotly.
"You want to go also Jo... sef, emm nevermind, you are just trying to win Twilight's favor by accompanying her!"
"OH SHUT UP!" I exclaimed, yeah I suppose my calmness didn't show off at this moment, and that shout startled the others that were currently near us, "YOU DESPICABLE... Damn! you are just blabbering, that's the only [BEEP] that apparently you know to do!"
That left Rainbow Dash surprised, at least I could shut her mouth off.
Twilight decided to break the awkward silence.
"Ummmm look, this is my decision girls, and I'm gonna make it on my own, and I certainly can't think straight with all this noise... not to mention hunger, now go on, shoo"
The ponies began to mumble as they left the place where we are located.
"Sorry, Twilight, for that last action that I just made, it's just... how can you be still on your sanity with this thing... that has become a problem!"
A tired sigh came from her, "I don't know that, but don't worry, I'll figure this out... somehow"
"Aquí empezó el conteo regresivo...cuando llegué a cero se acabó..."
I was humming quietly to myself a Spanish song while we were at the restaurant, for my human sitting position curious and odd glances we're thrown at our table, I don't have an idea of how to sit like a horse, this is the obvious easiest way.
"What am I gonna do? all five of my best friends have really good reasons to go to the gala," Twilight began before seizing five petals from the flower of the table, "Applejack, or Rainbow Dash? Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy, Rarity... oh, who should go with me?"
What the.. why did she just eat those petals.
"Have you made your decision?" the waiter asked.
"I CAN'T DECIDE!" that outcry caused some glares to our table, including the startle for both Spike and me.
"Twilight, he just wants to take your order"
Yep, also, I've been seeing this menu for ten minutes, and all this food is made from grass or flowers.
I want meat, damn, I miss to eat meat, I haven't eaten any class of it since I left the moon, guessing that was like 2 years ago.
Let's see what they are going to pick.
"Oh... I would love a daffodil and daisy sandwich, " Twilight ordered, and nope, from the name of that plate, it must be something involved with eating flowers and... grass.
"Do you have any rubies?" Spike asked, receiving no response from the waiter, "no? okay, I'll have the hay fries, extra crispy"
"And what would the gentlecolt like?"
Nothing, I prefer dying of hunger than eating hay or grass, guess that I'll go back to the sugar cube corner to find some relatable food.
"I'm fine, thank you, " I responded to the waiter.
He nodded before leaving.
"I thought you were really hungry?" Spike said.
"You know Spike, this is the worst menu I have seen on my whole life, do they sell anything else that just... grass" I responded to him.
"What do you think, guys?" Twilight inquired us, I suppose she is talking about the menu.
"I think that Jose is right, we have to try another restaurant, I mean, I like grass just fine, but would it hurt anybody to offer some gemstones?"
I was with you Spike until the half of your speech, so he also eats gems, incredible, in this world, they are considered worthless apparently...
Countries on Earth would go to war for these resources, this planet seems to have thousands of them, unlike Earth in which fossil fuels and other resources are already extinct.
Most cars, rockets, and other things are powered either by electricity of by biofuels, even though when the last reserves of crude are being currently extracted in Vnezuela, the world almost entered into a third world war for the importance it represented in the world economy, almost destroying various stock markets and entering into a worldwide great depression, it could even be said that it would be so much worse than a great depression.
"I mean about the Gala and the ticket and who I should take!" Twilight articulated.
"You're still on that?" Spike questioned.
"Guys listen!" Twilight asserted, startling both Spike and me when she leaned on the table, "how do I choose? and when I do choose, will the other four be mad at me? I mean, I could give up my ticket and give away two, but that would still leave three disappointed ponies, what if I—"
"Your food, " the waiter said as he came back with the plates.
Yep, I'm glad that I didn't order anything, they gave Twilight a sandwich with umm flowers as an ingredient? who is the chef of this place?
And what the hell is that thing, literally hay but in... what?
"Oh thank you, this looks so good... I'm sure everything will be much clearer once I eat, " Twilight said with a much more cheerful tone.
The hell, various galloping ponies passed quickly by us entering the structure that I suppose it's the main restaurant.
"Em, madam? are you going to eat your food in ze rain?" the waiter announced from the entrance of the restaurant.
"It's not raining..."
We are surrounded by rain... how the..
Oh my goodness gracious.
The only reason why we're not bathed yet was that we are under a hole where rain clouds didn't touch us, that is obviously not a natural occurrence.
Oh... of course, looking up, we saw Rainbow Dash looking down from above of the clouds through the hole.
I'm still angry with her, but, I am feeling bad for shouting at her in that way, I don't know but I think that I saw her being offended by what I said, even if creating is literally changed by a beeping sound, just like in old cartoons and some movies.
"Hi there, best friend forever I ever had!" Rainbow called down to Twilight, "enjoying the sunny weather?"
"Rainbow Dash, what are you doing?" Twilight asked her.
"Whaddya mean?" Rainbow said after the suspicious, "I just saw the most smartest, most generous pony about to get rained on so I thought I'd kick a hole in the clouds so she could dine in peace, that's all"
Wow really, I want to say something but after what happened back there my remorse is only eating myself.
"Rainbow Dash, are you trying to get extra consideration from me to get the extra ticket by doing extra special favors for me?" Twilight asked.
"What!? Pfft, no!" Rainbow said trying to uncover her intentions that are obvious.
"Rainbow, you're not trying to get extra consideration for the extra ticket by doing me extra special favors, are you?"
Yes, she deciphered it.
"Me? No no no, of course not, " Rainbow responded.
Sigh, after this I'm going to look for food and head directly to the library.
"Uh-huh, " Twilight already acknowledged the intentions of her, they weren't friends?
Meh, I might be exaggerating.
"Seriously, I'd do it for anypony, Rainbow Dash began before gulping, "Heh heh, eh"
"Rainbow, I am not comfortable accepting unwanted favors, so I'd appreciate it if you close up that rain cloud!"
"Uhh Twilight, " I said in a precautionary voice.
If she closes it, won't the rain pour down on us?!
"Ugh, fine!" Rainbow Dash shouted before... zipping the cloud?
This world has any logic at all, where are the physical laws of physics with this whole thing, how could Rainbow Dash even support herself on a cloud, she wasn't flapping her wings, another thing to add into the list of the illogical things.
"That's better," Twilight said, about to take a bite out of her grass and flower sandwich, when rain poured down, making us three wets and ruining her and Spike's meal.
I'm f***ing tired of being here, I'm leaving now!
"Okay, that's it!" I said while quickly standing up and walking away from the table, "I'm not resisting this anymore, see ya' in the library"
Me canse de todo esto!
I got tired of all this thing!
The whole day listening to their problems, not mine unless it's something of life or death, like Nightmare Moon.
I finally ate something from the sugar cube corner, it was something of sugar obviously, but what could I do, I refuse to eat any source of grass or flowers.
The rain was still pouring hard from the skies, I could feel the cold chills roam through my body, even though, I love the rain.
Bogotá is like the England of South America, it rains a lot, you never know what climate will hit Bogotá, in the morning, the skies could be clear but it could pass only one hour and they convert into a complete dark, pouring immediately rain, it also may be on the contrary...
I just wish good luck to Twilight, in my way earlier to the sugar cube corner, I saw Rarity from a certain distance walking to the spot where Twilight and Spike sat, that means more favors for gaining her favor.
Sigh, entering the library, I immediately felt how my mane was really wet, I was making a puddle inside the Library.
Oh my, I never take a closer look at those bulbs, they are exactly the design of Thomas Edison, old technology.
"Meh, it looks that the rain is finally stopping"
After finding the dark, cold, bathroom, I tried to dry myself up with umm what I think are towels, man it is hard to dry with hooves...
Weird, it is designed in a way the both equine's and other species could use it, even though, for a human it would be like a bathroom for kids.
I can't find the lights of this place, the only source of it comes from a small window that is above from the mirror...
What the...
Looking through the mirror, I saw a symbol in my flank, just like the other ponies of this land...
So they didn't tattoo it, I thought it was like a weird cult or local culture of this land to tattoo a certain symbol... in that zone.
Cause' I obviously don't remember doing this to my flank.
Maybe it came with the body, a birth symbol maybe? going to ask Twilight when she comes back.
Ii looks like an iron cross, and in the center of it, there is what I think a star of the U.S. army type, weird.
Does this mean something... damn it, I simply don't understand all of this...
"Who brought me here, I want to be human again, " I mumbled quietly.
Damn, not even two days have passed and I want to go!
I'm tired, I'm alone, I have no one here...
"I'M [BEEP] TIRED OF THIS PLACE... I could be right now back at La Libertad and heading back home to relax in the San Andres beaches, but noooo! I'M CURSED TO BE STRANDED IN A PLANET TRILLIONS OF LIGHT YEARS FROM EARTH!"
"Why..." I was sobbing, tears were threatening to appear...
"Que se supone que debo hacer, solo quiero irme de vuelta a casa, "
What am I supposed to do, I just want to go home.
Sigh...
Currently, I am leaned in one of the walls of the bathroom, slowly trying to stand up in my hind legs.
"[BEEP] WHY!"
I cannot even stand up like a normal person, I'm trapped...
"Ahh, Damn!"
Great, I cut my front limb, is great, just great, I must really...
I want to sleep...
I took the toilet paper to clean the blood from my fur.
Huh, this blood looks like an orange combined with a red, really weird.
I rested again my back on the wall of the bathroom while sitting again.
I think that a little rest wouldn't be so bad.
I closed my eyes letting the tiredness take over my body.
What the...
Tall buildings, cold weather, cars, and motorcycles, I'm in Bogotá...
Was it all a dream? the whole thing of being stranded on a planet.
I was currently located in an alleyway between two buildings made of bricks, trash scattered all around the cement floor, old creeks and a humid texture on the windows and the walls made of bricks.
Maybe I was drunk and ended up in this place.
There is only something weird, I can't hear the city noises, I couldn't hear any actions, I felt alone.
Standing up, a smile appeared on my face when I saw that I was human again, but, what the hell.
I was in my spacesuit, looking back I quickly crouched and picked up my helmet.
Rough, its solar, golden protector is heavily scratched, lifting the protector, I saw how the helmet visor is also scratched, what happened to this...
Analyzing with more detail my suit, I saw several scratches on it, oxygen and compression tubes separated from their main tanks, the Colombian flag in my shoulder is heavily scratched, the same for the Atenea logo in my other shoulder, this suit looks like if I have fought a beast.
What the...
A known song to me...
La vie en rose began to sound from behind me, prompting me to immediately turn myself to seek how this music began to play...
It comes from the street.
I began to slowly walk through the alleyway, the music was higher, it sends somewhat chills down my spine, the night skies were full of stars as a full moon takes the crown in, now that's the weirdest thing that could happen in this city.
Exciting the alleyway, I first saw both directions of the street...
What... an old radio was in the middle of this street, transmitting the voice of Louis Armstrong.
"Do you want to dance with me?"
...
Breathing heavily I slowly turned my back, there is another person...
"Daniela..." I said between my heavy breaths.
It was her, she was here...
Dressed in a blue dress, black hair, and blue marine eyes that touched my soul since the moment that I first met her.
She extended her arm.
"Jose, do you want to dance with me"
I felt a choking sensation in my throat, my whole body was tensed, this moment...
This moment...
My jaw dropped, I'm choking actually, I'm...
"Wait no..."
Tears appeared on my face as I was fainting, making the best I could to maintain my eyes opened.
"Why didn't you took that dance Major?"
"I...I..."
I...
Darkness covered my surroundings.
"You are the reason for the death of this world, you brought the doom to this world, you brought the war to this world, and as always, there will be nothing in your power to stop it, just like with Daniela"
"Who said that!" my teeth were gritted, I began to sweat heavily, all my senses focused on that voice, I have heard it before but from who?
Behind me I saw a mirror, a lonely mirror in a dark limbo, I stared solemnly at my reflection when my figure, from the mirror, took my arm.
"YOU"
I was being consumed again in the darkness only this time I couldn't see anything...
It felt cold, the same feeling when she die-
"Ahhh!"
I opened my eyes, being greeted by the sound of someone knocking a door, softly but it could still be perfectly heard, breathing heavily, I felt fear, sadness, and remorse.
She was there...
I'm still here?
The bathroom, the dark bathroom, I felt cold by watching again each wall.
What was that I promised myself that she was...
Huh, someone opened the library's door?
Ah great, I'm a pony, I forgot.
I took the toilet paper and roll up my limb to cover the injury, as I stand up and walk to attend the per-pony, I suppose, that just entered the library.
"Fluttershy?" what was she doing here?
"Oh...excuse me Jo..s..e, I hope you don't mind me coming in..."
Releasing a sigh of calmness, a warm smile appeared on my muzzle, her manners always calm me somehow.
"I suppose this is a public library, you can come in"
My voice is still severely agitated for the dream I just had.
And what was she doing here?
"Umm Fluttershy, " I began with hesitance, "what..what are you exactly doing here? neither Twilight or Spike is currently in the library of you are looking for them"
"If you don't mind, umm I wanted to clean up the library a little for Twilight, though it would be something nice for a friend, aaaand for you too, you're both my friends," Fluttershy responded the second part with nervousness.
And we are not friends Miss Fluttershy.
She turned back to the door, "You can come in now"
Oh shoot, various small animals began entering the library, squirrel, bunnies, and birds.
Hmm, I think that I know why is she here.
"You are also trying to win the favor of Twilight by emmm good actions, " I said with a small smile on my muzzle.
I couldn't really smile a lot after that buried memory hit me back on the dream.
"Oh no! I would never d-"
"Hey, it's okay Fluttershy, just try to not interrupt me in my room, I'm sure it doesn't need umm this clean up"
Hmm talking about that...
I quickly ran to the bathroom picking the lonely ticket that was located on the floor, I don't know this mare, she could steal it or something in that category, you never know.
Exciting it, Fluttershy began to organize the animals for cleaning up emmm this place, as I quickly climbed the stairs into my room, closing the door behind harshly.
In second thought, this place needs more clean up than the whole library, only one day and I already made a millennial mess here.
Failed attempts on the components of the GPS, the notes in the table, wow this place is really a mess and I didn't put attention to that.
I am the doom of this world?
Who said that I was dreaming but it all felt so real, the death and hollow sensation pouring from that dark embrace, as well as my feelings and emotions passing through my heart and mind when I saw... her.
But I just don't understand, the doom of the world, in what way, what makes me relevant, this place is crazy and nuts but that does me any relevancy, I came here by a mission, nothing more, maybe a subconscious voice that may have activated at my previous lose of control, and manifested in a dream per se.
I might sound very insane and crazy, but I could analyze this blood to find more scientific components about it...
Sigh
I am really afraid... how is that I maintain partially my sanity.
A sweet humming sound started, as I glanced from above the stairs, Fluttershy was happily humming a song, that gives me that forgotten feeling that I have since I came here, real peace, at least relaxation.
"Holy Spirit, I implore you peace even in this far away galaxy.."
I looked down at the ticket in my hoof, that Princess Celestia could be lying to me, I am going to include into that preposition, and be ready for any intending action that could come from her or any of the guard of this lands, I might begin to consider a second option if I don't find a way out of here...
No... that option is not relatable, God would send me to hell.
"Fluttershy, not you too?" Twilight said after a gasp, at least she is back.
"Oh!" Fluttershy noticed them entering, as nervousness became noticeable in Fluttershy's features, "well, hello Twilight, I hope you don't mind, but we're all doing a little spring cleaning for you."
Well, time to hide... sigh, I'm tired of always hiding my emotions.
That's always the same thing that they say to you.
Just gotta push a little bit if they won't suspect something rare on me, well, even rarer than I already are to them.
"Really I thought that I was included, " I declared while going down the stairs.
"Oh ummm, " nervousness was increasing in the Fluttershy's soft tone, "and of course for you Jo..se"
Major, why is she forgetting about that!
"Hey Twilight, " I quickly glanced at the frustrated pony.
"Fluttershy is summer"
"Oh, well better late than ever... umm it was Angel's idea", so that is the name of her pet.
"You're not doing this for the ticket, are you?" Twilight asked.
She obviously knows.
"Oh no, " more like oh yes Miss Fluttershy, "I'm doing this because you're my very best friend, right, Angel?"
She glanced at the bunny which nodded.
Wait did that animal just understand, so my previous theory must be true, these animals have an actual certain level of intelligence.
"Really Fluttershy?, " I started, "would you really clean this whole place because randomly Twilight is now your best friend? even if that level takes time to get"
After a short momentarily silence Fluttershy confessed disappointingly.
"Oh, yes, we are just doing this for the ticket..."
"No, no, no!" Twilight shouted, making the Fluttershy's pet drop the salad, Twilight then walked towards the door, "look, this all very nice of you and angel, but I'm not accepting any more favors until I've made my decision, so, I'm going to have to ask you to leave"
"SURPRISE-"
Oh hell no man!
Twilight was dragged out by Pinkie Pie, I quickly followed and saw how Pinkie, as well as other ponies, lifting Twilight up into the air.
Oh my goodness as I said previously, this place is nuts.
"Umm is that a ticket for... the gala?" Fluttershy asked from behind.
I changed my attention to her.
I suppose that I should have left this thing hidden in my temporary room, big brain time everybody!
Well... I don't want to be in the same situation as Twilight is...
"Yes, " I started while exiting the building, just like the first day I was here, "I wish I could have a chat with you about it but I think that I gotta go"
I ran outside the library for a few seconds, at least no one is picking me about this thing.
Are they singing?
"PINKIE!" the hell, that was Twilight exclaiming from...
Oh great.
"Shoot!" Twilight landed on me, ouch.
"Yes, Twilight?" Pinkie talked, I think.
"At least the other ponies tried to be settled about the ticket, " twilight let out.
"Twilight... I can't breathe..." I said in my choking state, again.
"Huh... Oh! sorry, are you okay Major?" Twilight said after quickly getting off me and with a worried tone.
"Yep, it's lovely when they use you as a landing pad"
"Wait, what ticket? what gala?" one of the ponies in the crowd asked.
Ouch my body is hurting, first a cut, now this, what a great day!
"Oh, you didn't know? Twilight has an extra ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala!" Pinkie Pie shouted happily.
And why did she do that?!
With all of my forces I stand up, I'm in a very dizzy position right now.
"The Grand Galloping Gala?! " everyone exclaimed, could this ponies just lower the voice a little bit.
Turning my view to Twilight, I saw her struggling as this ponies got close to her offering her different things, now everyone wants to win her favor.
"What are we gonna do?" Spike asked Twilight.
"We're... gonna... run!" Twilight shouted as Spike and she went immediately running as fast as they could...
"[BEEP]!"
Several ponies stepped on me when they ran after Twilight and Spike, leaving me like a dead animal on a road, this is what it feels when a truck passes over you.
I think this day enters among the worst of my short life.
"I AM NOT A FREAKIN RUG", I screamed in anger, of course, it was already in vain because of the remoteness of the group of ponies.
Again, standing up with difficulties for all the blows that I obtained today, I directed myself into the library, entering with nausea and pain.
"Is it true that you have also a ticket for the Grand Galloping Gala?!" Rainbow Dash asked while hovering over me with a frown.
... I can't shout at her, I already did and it felt bad, but it's just really annoying.
Fluttershy blew my cover, what an incredible job!
"Ummm... is it your business?" I asked shaking my head slightly in a calm and dizzy voice still, not going to invest in fighting with her again.
Oh my goodness, it's not only her but the other 4 also.
"Look, I was invited only as a viewer, I have some business to make on the gala... I suppose"
"But..." I continued after the curious silence from the mares, "I have a better question for you, what are you doing right now in the library?... you know, don't answer that to me, " I snapped before anyone could say something, "you all are just trying to get Twilight's favor to go to the gala! you honestly think that Twilight will give away her ticket to any of you?"
"Of course she would!" Rarity declared in objection, "We're her best friends!"
"Exactly! you're all her best friends, and that means that she won't pick exclusively any one of you, she values every single one of you equally, " I continued after a breath, it's incredible that I'm saying without any knowledge of how Twilight really is, "you have been annoying her all the day long, how do you think that she is feeling right now?! I'm not an expert, but I think that she is going to send the tickets back to Princess Celestia"
After a tight stillness Applejack spoke first.
"Hmph, gee, I never thought of it in that way.." Applejack sighed before continuing, "I guess we have only being annoyin' poor Twilight"
"I feel so ashamed of myself after bothering dear Twilight, " Rarity continued.
"Oh! Oh! I know!" I sighed as Pinkie Pie lifted her hoof, finally, they are reasoning, "As soon as Twilight arrives, we'll apologize to her!"
"Great idea Pinkie!" Rainbow Dash nodded in agreement before glancing at me, "Soo are we cool?"
Cool? what does she mean with... ohh?
"I'm sorry for what happened back there Mis- Rainbow Dash, I really didn't think the situation back there, " I said, needed to quit that grudge.
"Hey, don't worry I forgive you, that's what friends are for after all, " Rainbow Dash stated, damn this species is really forgiving, if a situation like this would have happened back on Earth, in the same place where I shouted, that person would have probably sent me a punch in the face, fully worth of it I might add.
People have become more violent, no one to blame them for how many wars have targeted and kicked the butt of each nation, even the safest of them have been involved in a war at least once in the last three decades.
"Right... well I think that my job here is done, imma head out"
POOF! the hell did that sound.
Turning my back, Twilight and Spike were there... they both looked like if they have passed in a nuke town on the Guajira desert during a nuclear test.
"Oh, well hello Twilight and Spike, both look, great"
She didn't pay attention to my statement.
"One second Jose, Spike lock all the doors!"
Hey, she forgot my rank, it's Major Jose!
Even though I couldn't think of it that much, I was instead in a mummified position as the quickness of both Twilight and Spike on shutting everything, lights, and doors, as well as turning every light from the library.
Pretty dark, the moon is the only source of light right now, even though, and interesting fact about the night of this place is that instead of being jet black, it has color in it, a faint violet color that covers the sky with bright stars.
Must be for it's closeness to a black hole.
I suppose I didn't mention that but back at the moon they explained me some details about this place, Zoi is the 12th planet of the Gargantua Solar System, as you know it's star and moon both go around the axis of the planet, as the planet goes plane the axis of Gargantua, making some gravitational counterparts on within its surface, something that I could feel on the moment when I set foot on this world, I didn't mention it but it was very noticeable, you could feel more tiredness and slowness on each step, containing lots of traction.
Oh well, the main light turned again.
"Yaaaargh!" ouch Twilight, "I can't decide, I just can't decide! It's important to all of you and I just can't stand to disappoint any of you, and giving me gifts and doing me favors won't make any difference, because you're all my friends and I wanna make you all happy and I can't, I just can't!"
Finishing with a collapse of tiredness, feeling the same as well heh Twilight, the only difference is that you are on YOUR planet with YOUR own people... ponies for your situation.
"Twilight, sugar, " Applejack started, "I didn't mean to put so much pressure on you, and if it helps, I don't want the ticket anymore, you can give it to somepony else, I won't feel bad, I promise"
Ahh the sentimental part, or the part that I give a damn if it's not involved with me.
"Me too, I feel just awful that I made you feel so awful, "
"And me too, It's no fun upsetting your friends"
"Twilight, it was unfair of me to try to force you as I did, " Rarity confessed.
"Yes! That means the ticket is mine, haha, I got the ticket, I got the ticket—!" Rainbow exclaimed in a cheerful voice while singing that last statement.
"Really Rainbow..." my declaration echoes the library as the other mares glared at her.
"Hehe he, ummm, you know, I haven't perfected my signature moves for the Wonderbolts anyway. I don't need that ticket either, " finally she reasoned.
"We all got so gun-ho about going to the gala that we couldn't see how un-gun-ho we were making you, " Applejack asserted, " but Jose made us realize the way we were treating you, he told us how much pressure we were puttin' on you"
Why did you involve me also in this!
"We're sorry, Twilight, " the rest said in unison, glad this turned out just fine.
"Spike, take down a note, " Twilight began, "Dear Princess Celestia, I've learned that one of the joys of friendship is sharing your blessings, but when's there not enough blessings to go around, having more of your friends can make you feel pretty awful, so, though I appreciate the invitation, I will be returning both tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala"
"WHAT?!" oh my, this place hasn't learned the meaning of not shouting constantly.
"I guessed correctly.." I mumbled to myself.
I raise my voice sometimes, but these are always on that trance.
"If my friends can't all go: I don't wanna go either!" Twilight finished proudly, smiling confidently at her own words.
"Twilight, you don't have to do that" Applejack said in a protest voice.
"Nope, I've made up my mind, Spike, you can send the letter now"
The dragon burned the letter in the green fire breath, letting a smoke which appears to follow somewhere out of the library.
"But now you won't be able to go to the Gala either," Fluttershy said.
"It's okay girls, " Twilight began, "I couldn't possibly enjoy myself without my best friends there with me," they group hug, "so I rather not go at all"
Yeah as I said earlier, the irrelevant part to me.
As well as for Spike I could see, for the expression, he is doing with his body and face.
"Well wallop my withers, guys, Isn't that just like the boys? can't handle the least bit of sentiment"
"Shoot!" how does this dragon accomplish to startle me in such a sudden way?
"Whoa Nelly!"
Applejack was stunned also.
"A letter from the princess? that was fast, " Twilight endorsed.
"My faithful student Twilight, why didn't you just say so in the first place?, and tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala, " Spike announced after reading the letter.
United gasps came from the mares.
"Now we can all go!" Cheers were heard around this place, oh beautiful a happy ending.
"Allow us to treat you to dinner, " Rarity said after the Twilight's hunger expression.
"What a great way to apologize!"
"And to celebrate! come on everyone, the cupcakes are on me!" Pinkie announced happily.
"Well you all, go and have fun, " I spoke going back to climb up the stairs.
"Wait a minute, you are not coming?" Twilight began, making me stop on my walk, "you didn't mention you also have a ticket?"
"Excuse me Twilight, but I don't have the obligation of doing that, as I said to them, it's a personal business that I must attend, plus, I need to get things done this night, "I responded with a colloquial voice, sternness on it also.
I really need to learn how to hide these things.
"Those contraptions you have passed the two whole days making, what is their function?"
"Sorry Twilight, confidential information from my land"
"But darling, " now Rarity gets the moment to speak, "why would you not go out for dinner with your friends?"
Shut up really
"Let me get something clear, " I began, "two days have passed since a conversation with any of you, being more clear, ... you are NOT my friends, and I don't need any of you, so thank you for listening"
Ahhh!
"Oh come on silly! why would you not want friends?" Pinkie said after jumping over me and landing in the front.
"As I sa-"
"Oh at least a dinner, you surely look hungry Major, and if you still ya' don't consider us your friends, then we'll make you one for us and hopefully for you, " Applejack finished.
Damn this is going way to fast.
Sigh...
It would be a good idea to have allies here, at least dor my stay.
"Uhhh I don't promise anything really, " I announced.
"Oh this is great! HUH!" Oh my goodness, Pinkie Pie is crazy, "I forgot to do a welcoming party for you!"
"That is not necessary Pinkie"
"And fixing you mane, it looks awful IN that way"
Oh thanks Rarity
"What have I done..."
"Come on no time to lose, this is supadupagreat! " Pinkie said taking my right limb and dragging me out of the library.
Ouch ouch ouch
I can't make an expression of hurt for no suspicion of the cut or how I injured myself, I feel rather weak in this body to be sincere.
Sigh in what deal I have just entered myself.
PARODY OF SOME PARAGRAPH IN THIS STORY
Na I don't think so
