What's up everybody? Elecx here with a new chapter to this little series of mine!
Ok, so last time Zoey and Jake had finally found each other! Now That they've reunited they're going to have to find a place to stay in Ponyville until they find a way home! I might also sneak in some hidden ponies...who knows?
Alrighty, but before I begin, I must bring out the ol' disclaimer.
I do not own any sort of thing ponies. I only own the story idea and Zoey/Storm with Jake/Miles.
So let's get this story underway, shall we?
Miles POV
"Yawn..." I lay comfortably in the bed that Twilight had gotten out for me. Last night was insane. Not only did the country almost get taken over, but I found my best friend again! Though I had almost lost her in the fight with Queen Chrysalis...I can't believe it.
Well now that we're back in Ponyville, Zoey and I have thought about getting a place to stay at for now..I don't think Twilight should have to provide a place to sleep for us all the time, now can we?
I turn on my back and slowly open my eyes. It was still dark out, and Twilight and Spike were still asleep. I looked over at Zoey's bed and she was also still asleep. Lets see..I grabbed the backpack beside my bed and looked inside for a book Princess Celestia had given me. It was titled 'The mare in the moon.' I opened the book to read the first part. "Once long ago, there were two sisters..."
"and ever since that fateful day, the princesses have continued to rule over Equestria..." I read finishing the book. Wow, I can't believe that Twilight and her friends did all of that. I mean venturing in an old castle to stop Nightmare moon, wow..
The sun was starting to come up. From what I read in the book, I'm told that Princess Celestia raises the sun while Princess Luna raises the moon. Day and Night...
Storm POV
I...I've felt this before...I think...I think I'm dreaming...? A tall dark blue alicorn comes into view. "Princess Luna..." "Good morning Storm, how are you doing?" "I'm doing alright, my body aches, and I'm a bit stiff, but other than that I'm fine." I assure her. "That's good." "Um...Princess Luna..Can you tell me now...why Jake and I are here?" Princess Luna looked off into the distance. "I'm afraid not now...You still need to know a lot more before you can find out." "That's what I was afraid of..." I face hoofed. Luna turned to me. "How did you manage to survive two blasts from Queen Chrysalis?" Princess Luna asked. "Well...I don't know...I guess my willpower kept myself together? I'm not really sure about that myself..."
I was actually pondering that last night as I was trying to fall asleep..but my mind wandered before I could really think about it..."Well I'm relieved that you're alright. I've got to go help Princess Celestia reschedule the Gala, I'll see you later." She said fading from the dream.
Ogg..my body really is stiff..I slowly open my eyes to see that everyone had gotten up. "Wow, did I really sleep in that late?" I said looking at the clock. It was ten AM. I climb out of bed and head downstairs.
"Hey Zoey." Jake greeted. "What's up, Jake?" "Not much. How are you feeling?" he concerned. "Not bad, thanks for asking. I'm going for a walk around town." I said looking at my board. "Be sure not to sprain yourself." He warned. "I'll try. What are you going to be doing?" I asked. "I'm going to read more about Equestria. Twilight let me look at her book collection." He said looking back at the book he was reading. "Cool, I'll see you later." I said walking out the door.
I pause to let some fillies zip by me before I head out. As I'm walking through I see many shops and boutiques. "Hey Storm!" Pinkie Pie cried out. "H-hey Pinkie, what's up?" "The sky, silly!" She answered literally. "Haha, long time since I heard that one. I mean what's happening?" I correct her. "Weeeeellll I'm working on making muffin's for Derpy's birthday party. She loooves muffins!" She smiled. "That sounds pretty cool." "What are you doing today? Anything fun?" She said getting in my face. "Uh..well I'm not really up to anything today..." I blankly answered. "Great! You can help me bake the muffins!" She said enthusiastically pushing me to go with her. "Pinkie..Pinkie!" Well I guess I'm off to get my first baking lesson...
We arrive at this bakery place called Sugercube corners. Pinkie Pie led me inside where there was a yellow stallion and a blue pony. "Hi there Pinkie Pie!" The blue mare greeted. "Hi Mr. and Mrs. Cake! This is my good friend Storm!" Pinkie Pie directed toward me. "hehe..Hi." I addressed. "Very nice to meet 'cha Storm." Mr. Cake said. "Come on, Storm, lets go work on the muffins!" Pinkie Pie directed.
I walked over to the counter where Pinkie Pie was setting everything up. "Uh..I've never really baked muffins before..Pinkie.." Pinkie Pie was speeding to get the stuff out. "That's...Alright!...I'll...Teach...You!" She said everytime she zipped over to the counter with something. "Alright! I think that's all of it!" She brought out two bowls one for her and one for me. "Now, just do as I do!" I tried my best to follow her actions. She added some flour...sugar...baking powder..I never thought ponies would have this kind of food? "Wait! that's the salt, not the sugar!" She stopped me. "Oh..silly me.." I sighed. I was able to copy what she added. "And now comes the fun part!" She said. "And what's that?" I asked. "You get to add an extra ingredient for flavor!" She cheered.
An extra ingredient? Seems weird to me..everyone follows a book usually. I skim the labels of the ingredients in front of me. I pick the blueberries and bananas. "So when is Derpy's birthday?" Pinkie Pie smiled. "It's this Saturday!" she cheered. "Ok, now that the batter is mixed, we need to pour them into these containers." She said getting out two muffin pans.
Just then the door opened. "Howdy Mr. and Mrs. Cake, I'm here to drop off those apples you wanted." I turn around to see Applejack there with a crate full of apples. "Hey Applejack!" Pinkie waved. "Hey Pinkie Pie, Storm. What're y'all up to?" "We're baking muffins!" Pinkie celebrated. "Sounds good." Applejack turned to the Cakes who were just entering the room. "Oh hi Applejack, thank you for bringing those." Mrs. Cake thanked. "No problem, well I ought to get going. Big Mac is back at the farm doing more apple-bucking. I'll see y'all later!" She said walking out the door. The cakes went to put away the apples.
We had finished pouring the batter and stuck the two pans in the oven. "Great! Now we just wait for them to be done!" I peered over in my pocket to my music player. "Hey! What's that?" Pinkie Pie said looking at my music player. "Uh, it's a music player. I have a bunch of songs on here that I like to listen to." I said pulling it out of my pocket. "Ooo! play a song, play a song!" Pinkie Pie said jumping up and down. "Ok then, let me find a song." I said scrolling through the list. I stop at a song that I figured that Pinkie Pie would like, since she's a party pony. "Alright, have a listen. " I say turning up the volume. She She only took a few beats to love it. "I throw my hands up in the air sometimes saying Ai-o! ai-oo!" She said dancing along. "By the way, that is this song called?" She asked still dancing. "It's called Dynamite. It's written by a guy from my world named Taio Cruz." She loved the song. I think I might have just signed myself up for DJ with this music. "I love it!" She said dancing some more. "Come on, dance!" She said tugging at my hooves. "No-no-no...I don't sing or dance." I say backing away. "Come on! It's fun!" "Noooo way. I don't dance and I never will." I don't know, it may be just the fact that I've never partied much, but I'm no dancer. I can't dance at all, trust me it's bad xD.
"How do you know you're not a dancer until you try?" Pinkie Pie tried to make a point. "I don't know..maybe later." Just then I heard a ding. "Ooo! the muffins are ready!" Pinkie Pie said rushing to the oven to take them out. I pick up the music player and put it back in my pocket. "mmm! They smell yummy!" She said taking a sniff. "Here! This is one of your muffins." She said grabbing a muffin from my batch. "Nice, thanks for teaching me how to make them." "No problem, it was fun!" She said bouncing up and down. Now if I ever return to my home, I'll know how to make blueberry-banana muffins.
"I can't wait for the party!" I say taking a bite of my muffin. "Have you had a lot of parties in your world Storm?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Uh...not big festivals like yours." That made her pause. "WHAT?! You never had parties?!" "Well..I only had small parties between me and Miles." Meh, the only kid I knew growing up beside my family was Jake and his siblings so I didn't really party much. "Well you're going to love going to more parties, 'cause everyone in ponyville is invited to mine!" She insists. "Cool, can't wait for Saturday." I say walking around the corner. "Well I better get going. I have some skateboarding I want to do." I say walking to the door. "Ooo! can I watch?" She said jumping right in front of me. "Uh..sure if you want to. I just have to go to Twilight's to get my skateboard." "Great! Lets go!" She said bouncing out the door. I playfully roll muy eyes and follow her out the door.
We walk through the streets as we're getting close to the library. "So what is a skateboard exactly?" she asked me. "Oh, it's a wooden board with wheels. It's something fun that a lot of people do in my world. You'll see how it works when I show you." I said walking to the door. I walk inside the library to find Miles and Twilight. "Hey guys, what's up?" I say when Pinkie Pie jumps in front and says. "Hi Twilight, Hi Miles!" She smiles big. "Hey Pinkie Pie" they say. "Hey Storm, do you have a minute?" Jake says. "Sure, I have to get my board anyway." I say walking to the steps. "Great." He's starting to get used to his magic. I am pretty jealous though, he has telekinesis!
"What's up?" I ask him when we get to the top of the stairs. "I was looking in this book of Ponyville and there's a construction crew!" He said showing me the spot in the book where it said that. "Sweet! They build houses?" I said reading more on it. "Yeah, though we'll have to find jobs to earn money to pay for it." He said closing the book. I checked my backpack. "I have twenty dollars in my bag, though it looks like it also changed into this world's money." I said inspecting it. "Great, I have twenty dollars also." He said pulling it out of his backpack. "Now we just need to earn enough for a house. We'll need to look up some jobs." I said walking over to my skateboard. "Yeah, I'll look more into it." He said putting the book down. Cool, I have to go show Pinkie Pie my skateboard tricks. Be back in a flash." I said holding the skateboard under my right wing and I walked down the stairs.
I saw Pinkie Pie and Twilight downstairs. "Ready to go?" I ask Pinkie Pie. "Ready as ever!" She said screaming with excitement. "Where are you guys off to?" Twilight asked. "Oh, Pinkie Pie wants to see me skateboard." "Sounds fun, mind if I join you?" Twilight said. "Sure. And Miles, you have to see my new motor power." I said to Jake who was coming down the stairs. "You bet!" "Skating party!" Pinkie yelled.
We got to the park in Ponyville where there were a few other ponies. "Ok, stand back, this could get bumpy." I warned them. I start flapping my wings to start momentum. I start making the skateboard roll faster and faster. I fly fast toward a tree. I turn the board to make it face the tree that was coming fast. The board hits it so I swing around the tree rather that hit it. "That's a new one!" Miles said proudly. Now I feel the wind at my side I spread my wings out to catch the wind in them. Kind of like a kite.
"Watch out!" Twilight feared. She noticed that I was flying right for a building. Now is my most recent perfected trick. I tilt my wings to gain altitude so I can fly onto the roof. I quickly jump and catch the wind again to fly into the air. Now at this point I'm gliding over the trees in the park. Closing my wings, I start falling toward the ground with the skateboard under my two back hooves. I then use the force of the fall to turn the skateboard so I can just roll back to my friends.
"Storm, your moves are getting pretty good! I see you've put your new wings to good use." Jake commented. "Thanks, I fiured might as well try 'em out." I said opening my wings. "That was amazing!" Pinkie Pie said jumping in place. "I see why you called yourself Shred Storm." Twilight said. "Wait, I knew your name's now Storm, but now it makes sense with the shredding part!" Miles added. "And I assume Miles Ganon is Tails and Ganondorf?" See, Miles 'Tails' Prower is from a Sonic the hedgehog game, and Ganondorf is the villan in the legend of Zelda games. "I figured you'd figure it out." Miles said with a wink. "You'll have to teach me sometime how to skateboard!" Pinkie Pie said. "Uh, sure thing!" I said. "Come on everypony, we better get going, the sun's starting to go down." Twilight pointed out. "Yeah, we better get to bed soon." I agreed.
Miles POV
We said goodnight to Pinkie and left for the library. I'm trying to find a good job for me to do while I'm here, we have to find a home sometime! "Hey Miles?" "Yeah, Storm?" "...Do you think that our families are doing ok? I hope they're not too worried.." Gee, I haven't thought too much about what they might be thinking.."Well, I don't know how the two worlds work..I'm guessing we'll find out someday..but if I were them, then yeah I'd be worried." I wonder how they are doing...
We walk inside the library. I walk over to the table to pick up a book I was reading. "What's that, Miles?" Storm asked. "It's a book on the kinds of jobs in Ponyville." "Nice, *yawns* well I better get to bed, night everypony." Storm walked upstairs. "Night Storm." Twilight said. It's not long before twilight heads up too.
I'm left alone downstairs to read. There's Sugarcube corners...all sorts of boutiques..."Hey..." There's a thing in here about toy making..I might be able to do something like that...what else is there? I keep reading to see if there's something Storm might like too. "Heh, maybe she can do deliveries with how fast she can skateboard.." I joke myself. "Hey...that might not be a bad idea..." Maybe there's something I can do with my talent. Lets see, I don't think video games are much I can work with. Unless I can try doing video game moves to help me. Hmm...
I decide that it's getting late and I walk upstairs to go to bed. Crawling into bed, I look up at the moon. "...Good night Mom and Dad, I hope you're not too worried..." and with that, I close my eyes and fall asleep.
Hmmm...H-huh? W-where am I?!
I look around to see a school. But not just any school, the one I went to. "Hey, isn't that.." But then I see two girls. One twelve year old girl and an eighteen year old girl. "Maria..how long has it been?" The little one asked her sister. "I don't know, Daisy, Jake has been gone for about four days." The older sister replied. Hey! those are my sisters! "Guys! over here! I'm over here!" But they didn't hear me. "I miss Jake so much, Alex said that his sister too has disappeared." Daisy said saddened. "I'm sure we'll find them, but for now we need to be strong and pray for their return." Maria said. Wait, am I seeing what's happening at home? "What about that moon horse he's been talking about? That's when he disappeared!" Daisy pointed out. 'Has it really been five days? Well that seems about right, I guess both worlds work the same way in time?' "Though he had mentioned something about it then, I just don't know where he went.." Maria said tearing up. As did Daisy.
But I don't get it, this is a dream, right? Maybe my mind is telling me what I already know, that I miss them and worry? "Ah..Maria? Do you see that mist surrounding us?" Daisy asked Maria. "I-I'm not the only one seeing it?" Maria was baffled. Daisy started flashing along with Maria. They hugged in fear. "M-Maria I'm scared!" Daisy cried. "Hold on tight, Daisy." Then there was a loud beep. In a flash, my sisters had disappeared.
"Gah, DAISY! MARIA!" I try to control my breathing. I'm lucky that Twilight, Storm, and Spike hadn't woken up from my shouting.."...phew...so it was just a dream...after all...I look out the window and see Luna's moon. "What are you guys planning...?"
Sounds like a lot more is happening than just Storm and Miles, huh?
Hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I hope to see you next chapter!
And now for the Qotc: If you were to have a cutie mark, what would it look like and what would it represent?
Anyways, this is Elexcity signing off.
