When the bell rang, every pony in school hurried out of the
school except for Blizzard who walked from the school carrying
his school bag.
Luna ran through the park passing ponies walking by. She noticed
the baby ponies playing in the distance with their mothers watching.
She left the park and across the street. Luna had to slow down
to a walk by the time she saw her street. Luna breathed heavily,
her legs were worn out from running.
"I wish I could wink home," Luna thought.
She walked in the house and heard her mother making noises in
the kitchen.
"I'm home," Luna shouted.
"Hi, honey, how's school?"
"Fine," Luna winked up stairs, she was to tired to
climb it. She walked into her room and dropped her bag on her
bed, then winked down stairs. She walked into the kitchen and
noticed her mother doing something at the counter.
"Mom, I'm going out!"
Rosebud turned around from the counter while holding a bowl and
stirring it, "Ok, be careful while you're out!"
Luna smiled, "I will." Then she hurried out of the
house.
Luna walked down her street and to the park, then she headed
straight for the other exit. The side walk was busy, full of
ponies walking to and from town. Luna crossed the street and
went into the Ice cream shop. Starlight was at the counter waiting,
along with Melody. Luna sat down next to Melody, a minute later
Clover walked in, then Sweetheart and the rest of the girls.
"Can you believe him?" Patch asked.
"Just what is his problem?" Bon Bon asked.
"Who?" Starlight asked.
"Blizzard," The girls answered.
"Oh...him. All he ever does is watch," Starlight replied.
"He doesn't want to play, according to what Blueberry told
me," Luna told them.
"He doesn't talk to anyone," Clover added.
"He ignores everyone," added Melody.
"No one knows nothing about him," Bright Eyes pointed
out, "Where does he live?"
"Who knows, he's one of the last ponies to leave school,"
Melody answered
"Lets find out where he lives then," Patch suggested.
"How?" Bon Bon asked, "He won't tell us."
"We follow him," Patch answered.
"All day?" Luna asked.
"Yes, he's got to head home eventually," Patch answered.
"Well, he should be in the park watching someone,"
Bright Eyes replied.
"Lets go then," Patch exclaimed.
The girls hurried out of the ice cream shop to the park.
Blizzard was laying on the grass watching a group of ponies
playing. His lower legs were wrapped in a white cloth and his
neckless sat in a pouch on a golden chain. He laid there staring,
wondering if one of them was Princess Luna. After a while he
stood up and left to find another group playing but they were
all boys. Surely she wouldn't change to look like a boy. He just
couldn't imagine her as a boy so he continued past them and left
the park. He roamed the sidewalk till he found himself heading
towards town. He stopped every now and then to looked through
the windows. One shop had baby stuff, another had TVs and another
one had furniture. He walked deep into town and suddenly smelled
sweet chocolate. He followed his nose and found a bakery shop.
There was a large wedding cake on the front window. As Blizzard
stared at it, he noticed a group of ponies in the reflection
of the window. The group of ponies looked familiar. He casually
turned pretending to look at another store while checking out
the crowded sidewalk but he couldn't find the group that was
watching him.
"Maybe I was just imagining thing," Blizzard thought
to himself.
He continued down the sidewalk and stopped at a soup restaurant,
He looked through the window feeling hungry. Just then he noticed
the group of ponies in the window reflection. This time he didn't
dare turn around. He continued walking and went into the next
store which was a hat shop. A dark pink ponies with yellow and
white hair walked up to him, "May I help you?"
Blizzard looked around at the strange hats pretending to be shopping.
"Umm...yes can you tell me if there's a group of ponies
watching from across the street?" Blizzard asked.
The store keeper thought that was an odd question but he looked
anyways.
"Yes, it's a group of girls. Are they friends of yours?"
"Umm...yes they are. Thanks," Blizzard turned and left
the store. He walked through town wondering how he was going
to loose the girls. He stopped at the street corner and looked
at the forest in the distance to his left, then he saw more houses
and less shops to his right. He figured it would be best to lead
them towards the houses. He turned right and crossed the street.
As he walked he noticed there were less ponies. He continued
walking till there were hardly any ponies. Then he walked down
the alley. He suddenly stopped and turned into a cluster of snow
flakes. Just as the girls peaked around the corner a cold chilly
wind blew past them.
"Brrr, it's getting a bit cold," Sweetheart exclaimed.
"That wind that blew by was cold which is strange for this
time of year," Bright Eyes remarked.
"Forget the wind. Hurry before we loose him," Patch
cried and ran through the alley to the other side. The girls
stopped and looked both ways down the street.
"He's no where to be seen," Bon Bon exclaimed.
"That is strange," Melody replied.
"Blizzard is...strange," Starlight added.
"Well I guess we lost him. We'll have to think of another
way to find out," Patch told them.
"Lets just give him time. Maybe he's shy or something,"
Luna suggested, "He's still a new pony in school."
"Yeah, I guess your right," Patch replied.
"Lets go to that soup restaurant," Bon Bon suggested,
"It looked good."
The girls all agreed and walked back into town.
Blizzard flew towards the forest pasting houses and several
large buildings. He flew deep into the forest to a clear spot
in the shadowy forest among the trees. He landed next to his
school bag, returning back into a pony again.
"Why were they following me anyways?" Blizzard asked
himself, "Maybe I'm making myself to suspicious? I'll have
to be careful." Blizzard sat down and unwrapped the wrapping
from his legs. Then he rubbed his hairy feet, "That feels
better." he laid on the grass, folding his front legs and
stretching his back legs. He laid on the grass for hours thinking
and planing the capture of Princess Luna. He wanted to be sure
he had thought everything out when he finally meets her.
"I'll need to find a place to stay. I can't sleep in the
forest this whole time, especially if it rains," Blizzard
thought.
He laid his head on his school bag and watched the sky as it
turned dark, soon he had fallen into a deep dreamless sleep. |
