11. New friends
But before anybody could say anything, Fizzy jumped up and down happily and shouted, "There come Megan and North Star! Oh and Danny and Molly come with them! Hey Megan!!" The others followed her direction and saw a pegasus with three kids on the back. North Star landed on the meadow and soon the ponies greeted them friendly.
"Hey my dears! North Star has told us everything on the way here. That's terrible! We have to find Sundance as soon as possible!" Megan said after everybody had greeted her. "Please, Megan, you have to help us!" Firefly begged with tears in the eyes. "Of course, Firefly! I'll try it! I'm sorry for you!" Megan whispered to her friend and stroked her. Firefly nodded.
"Do the Moochick know something about this dragon?" Megan asked when she went with the others to the house. "Uh. I suppose not. But, Megan..." Wind Whistler would tell her about the strange visitors even when Megan noticed them. "Uh. Hello. Who are you?" And so Hank explained her who they were.
"They really look like humans..." Eric murmured but got a censorious look from Presto. "Yeah! Of course, we're humans!" Danny replied cheeky. "You really come from earth??" "Yeah. Anyway, it's that what we call earth. But I don't know if it's your world, too! By the way, I'm Megan and these are my siblings Danny and Molly." Both siblings smiled at the kids. These smiled back.
"Hey, what do you know? Now our little Barbarian has finally found someone in his height!" Eric scoffed. "If you aren't quiet right now, then..." Bobby meant threatening and swung his Club. "Have a big mouth but nothing behind it..." Eric replied shrugging. Bobby growled. "Bobby! And you, Eric, stop teasing him!" Sheila backed her little brother protectively up. "Oh..." Megan made and thought about how her two siblings always argue. It's no easy job to hold both apart. And that was why she liked the reddish-haired girl directly.
"Actually, how old are you? You don't look like so much older than me..." Hank, who seemed to be their leader, told, "I'm the oldest with eighteen years. Presto and Eric are both seventeen and Diana and Sheila are sixteen and Bobby is ten." "Almost eleven." Bobby said proudly. "Hey, cool! Then you really are as old as I am!" Danny was happy. He grinned at Bobby. Bobby grinned back, glad to meet someone in his age finally, like Eric already guessed. "Oh no! Then I'm the youngest again!" Molly whined and looked sad. Danny looked at his kid sister and meant malicious, "Well, Molly, you will always remain the smallest!" Then he looked at Bobby and both began to laugh. The two boys got along with each other. Molly put her tongue out at her brother. "Well, Danny and Molly! Stop it! Behave yourself!" "Yeah! Right. And you don't have to incite Danny up to do it, Bobby!" "But I haven't done anything!" Bobby defended himself.
Megan and Sheila sighed and looked at each other. Then both girls smiled. "And how old are you, Megan?" Sheila asked. "I'm fourteen." "Really? I guessed you were older, to tell you the truth." Megan blushed a little bit.
Suddenly the white something of the kids stepped out of the tree which it had hidden behind itself from the strangers. And there the ponies could recognize what it was: a little white unicorn! It looked curious at the ponies who also looked surprised. Then it weighed and ran towards the ponies, directly to Gusty. "Oh dear me. Where do you come from, little unicorn?" she asked when the little unicorn had greeted her. The two unicorns nuzzled lovingly. The little unicorn nestled against Gusty contented. "Oh, Uni! You have probably found a new friend, don't you?" Bobby laughed. Uni, the unicorn, breathed as answer. "Don't be afraid, Uni, the other ponies and I won't hurt you!" Gusty promised Uni. As if the unicorn would have understood her it nodded. "It seems you really enjoy this here, Uni. No wonder, Gusty is also a white unicorn." Bobby smiled at his little friend. "Where do you want to know from, what this little silly appendage thinks and feels?" Eric asked in his well-known sarcastic voice. Angry Bobby turned around to him. "Uni is my friend and I just feel such a thing. 'Cause in contrast to you I have feelings." Eric raised his eyebrow and replied mocking, "And in contrast to you I don't run around and beat just everything and everyone that is in my way with this dumb Club!" "And I don't run in every danger which exists so that my friends have to rescue me constantly!" "And..."
"Is it always like that with them?" Fizzy asked the kids, while Bobby and Eric were still arguing. "Uh. Yeah. That's normal with them." Diana laughed. Hank sighed and Sheila shook her head. "We're already used to that. It doesn't probably pass a day by without any arguments between them. But today they really are in top form, I must say that!" Presto agreed and looked to Megan that looked embarrassed to the ground.
