Fool-Hardy Life
Chapter: 1
Here's the second chapter..
"uugh, my head, where am I?" I look around to see only a grassy plain an eerie forest close by
"Gotta find any source of civilization, the guy that sent me here…. Weird…" I mutter to myself, I go around look for anything remote to a civilization.
I wonder what he meant by 'enjoy your stay it will all end here soon'…
I continue walking and look around for anything and find a beaten path, "Maybe..." I trudge around the path following it look for anything to give me a lead. I walk down it for what seemed like hours!
I saw a glint of something over the hills, I run and run trying to figure it out, I stop dead in my tracks to find a village, but, inhabited by PONIES!
"No! No! This has got to be a dream, I mean come on, Ponies!" I fall back to let my mind think…
Minutes fly by before I get the courage to stand up and try to talk to them, they don't seem hostile. I carefully make my way down, I'm close to the edge of going into the city, Pegasi, Unicorns, and regular ponies walk about not even noticing me… I feel quite nervous, but throw it aside and walk into the 'town'.
I stop in my tracks as a pony spots me, I stand still as it comes up studying me, I think it's a female, the hair or mane color is a brownish color while the fur is a little brighter brownish color.
"My my, you're a strange creature, never seen anything like you before..." I am shocked this pony can speak English. I try to communicate see if she can help me.
"Uh, I'm confused, I'm uncertain of how I got here, I am not from this place..."
"Well, that seems self-explanatory of what you said at least, not of how you got here… My name is Fern Meadow, what's yours?"
She sticks out her, hoof? Almost like a hand shake gesture, I hesitantly take her hoof and shake it.
"My name is James..."
"Well it's a pleasure to meet you James, mind if I help you with your problem?"
"uh, yea, sure.."
"Aww come on, there is no need to feel nervous, I get that this is new for you but come on, I'm here to help, I'm a friend."
"Sorry, uh, yea, I'm glad we are friends, but, what do we do now?"
Fern looked up to the sky and as I look around I see why, it's almost midnight…
"I know your new here and all, but you got a place to stay?"
"No, no I don't, maybe I can sleep on a bench or something..." I said as I looked around for a bench.
"I don't mind if you would like to stay, I got a couch, which is way more comfortable than a bench, why don't you stay?"
I was a little freaked out by this but she is just trying to be friendly, I was silent for a few moments before speaking, "All right, I'll stay, thank you for your offer and letting me stay."
She smiled, "Anything for a friend" She then gave off a weird high pitched girl noise which sounded like it was rubber toy. She turned and led me to her home, it seemed very normal at that, like a house we have. It was decorated nicely, but they weren't as vamped up in technology as we were. There were some scattered candles around keeping everything lit, I was afraid the house would burn but she noticed me look at them, "It's quite alright, they are enchanted by unicorn magic to not burn anything" She said with a smile.
After a tour of the house, she led me to where I was staying, "This isn't the most comfortable couch in the world but at least it's better than a b-bench" She had a slight laugh after her remark.
"Have a nice night now, I'm going to bed." She waved and made her way up the stairs, I just watched her go into the darkness of a hallway and listened to the open and close of the door. I laid back on the couch, amazingly it could fit my size. It didn't take long for sleep to over take me.
