Masks Chapter 3
When Thomas got to the bed he was given to sleep in he realized there was no way he could sleep comfortably in such a small bed. Thomas stood at a good 6'' 2' and most ponies came up to his waist. Twilight walked up next to him.
Twilight: "Oh..."
Thomas: "I don't suppose you have a bigger bed."
Twilight shook her head. Thomas sighed
Thomas: "It's fine I'll sleep on the floor."
Thomas got to sleep reletively fast considering his bedding . He slept dreamlessly that night still in relative shock by his new surroundings he was woken by the conversation of 6 ponies
Twilight: "...and he still asleep upstairs."
Applejack: "So you're tellin' me that a monster from the everfree forest is up sleepin' in your bed right now?"
Twilight: "He's not a monster he's a student and he's not in my bed he's on the floor."
Rainbow Dash: "A Student? Really? Twilight I think you've been hitting the books a little to hard."
Fluttershy: "Do you know where he's from? Is he lost?"
Rainbow Dash: "Yeah i'm sure we could get him back to wherever he's from."
Fluttershy: "Um girls..."
Twilight: "That's just the thing. He's not from Equestria. He's from a planet called earth."
Fluttershy: "Hey..."
Pinkie Pie: "You mean he's an alien! Like a super dooper scary tentecle blob monster!"
Twilight: "No Pinkie. He's not scary, he's really nice."
Fluttershy: "Twilight..."
Twilight: "Yeah Fluttershy?"
Fluttershy pointed to the second floor at Thomas. All the ponies looked at him.
Thomas: "Hey."
Twilight: "Oh Thomas perfect timing."
Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity watched in silence as the large yellow and black striped creature descended the stairs. Fluttershy seemed to shrink into her self.
Twilight: "Everypony i'd like you to meet Thomas the human."
Everypony was tentitive to talk to Thomas. Applejack was the first to approach him.
Applejack: "Howdy, Partner i'm Applejack." she outstreached a hoof
Thomas grabbed her hoof and began shaking
Thomas: "Nice to meet you Applejack i'm Thomas."
The other ponies gradually walked up to him and introduced themselves.
Thomas: "I'm sure you all have questions about me so please feel free to just ask away."
Pinkie Pie: "Oh! Oh! I have a question pick me!"
Thomas: "Ok Pinkie what's your question?"
Pinkie Pie: "What's your planet like? Is it a huge swamp? Or is the land made of gas? How do you get around, you seem a little big to be floating on gas?
Thomas: "No, no it's nothing like that it's a lot like Equestria, except for the talking ponies."
Rainbow Dash: "You mean the ponies on Earth don't talk?"
All the ponies looked at Thomas
Thomas: "Well no. On Earth humans are the dominate life."
Rainbow Dash: "Weird..."
Fluttershy: "I, um, have a question."
Thomas: "What is it?"
Fluttershy: "What kind of animals are there on Earth?"
Thomas: "Well there's thousands of species it'd take a while to list them all."
Fluttershy: "Oh okay then..."
Fluttershy looked disheartened
Thomas: "Ill tell you later alright?"
Fluttershy perked up and smiled
Fluttershy: "Okay."
They all talked for about an hour before Applejack stood up
Applejack: "Alright y'all i'd best be on my way."
Rainbow Dash: "Where you goin' AJ?"
Applejack: "I've still gotta do some work around the farm."
Thomas: "Want some help?"
Applejack: "Thank ya kindly but it's fine i wouldn't wanna impose."
Thomas: "It'd be no trouble plus i'd like to repay Applebloom for her help, she helped me get to Ponyville."
Applejack: "Alright well then we'll be off. See y'all later."
Thomas and Applejack walked side by side out of Twilights house
They walked silenty most of the way before Thomas pulled out his MP3 and began scrolling through his music. He noticed he'd downloaded the Good the Bad and the Ugly theme song. He thought it'd be fitting music if he was going to help out on the farm. He turned the volume all the way up and hung the headphones around his neck so both he and Applejack could easily hear it. After the song ended Applejack spoke up
Applejack: "What in tarnation was that?"
Thomas: "It was just a song."
Applejack: "I've never heard anything like that before."
Thomas: "Do you like it?"
Applejack: "Like it? I love it, but what's it from?"
Thomas: "It's from an old movie called the Good the Bad and the Ugly."
Applejack: "What's a movie?"
Thomas: "It's basically a play."
Applejack: "Why didn;t ya just say that? What's it about anyway?"
Thomas: "It's been a while since i saw it but basically Blondie (The Good) is a professional gunslinger who is out trying to earn a few bits. Angel Eyes (The Bad) is a hit man who always commits to a task and sees it through, as long as he is paid to do so. And Tuco (The Ugly) is a wanted outlaw trying to take care of his own hide. Tuco and Blondie share a partnership together making money off Tuco's bounty, but when Blondie unties the partnership, Tuco tries to hunt down Blondie. When Blondie and Tuco comes across a horse carriage loaded with dead bodies, they soon learn from the only survivor that he and a few other men have buried a stash of bits in a cemetery. Unfortunately the survivor dies and Tuco only finds out the name of the cemetery, while Blondie finds out the name on the grave. Now the two must keep each other alive in order to find the gold. Angel Eyes ,who had been looking for the survivor, discovers that Tuco and Blondie meet with him and knows they know the location of the gold. All he needs is for the two to lead him to it. Now The Good, The Bad and The Ugly must all battle it out to get their hands on 200,000 bits."
Applejack was stunned by the story
Applejack: "That was...the best story i've ever heard."
Thomas: "I thought you'd like it."
Applejack: "Darn tootin! I doubt anypony in Ponyville or maybe even Equestria knows a story that good! Do ya know anymore?"
Thomas: "I still remember a few westerns."
Applejack: "Don't suppose you'd stick around and share 'em i'm sure Applebloom, Big Mac, and Granny Smith would love to hear 'em."
Thomas: "Sounds like fun."
Applejack spat on her hoof and extended it to Thomas
Applejack: "Put 'er there!"
Thomas looked at the saliva covered hoof for a moment shrugged then spat on his hand and shook her hoof.
They smiled then continued on their way.
