- *Aria, Get back here!*
- >Running down the path, you chase after your other half.
- >*Hurry up Anon, you have to see this!*
- *I might, if you tell me what it is you want me to see.*
- >*But that would ruin the surprise.*
- >Groaning, you continue to run after her, making sure not to lose sight of her as she begins moving into the woods.
- >*Don't worry its just up ahead.*
- >As you approach a clearing she slowly stops, and you come up behind her.
- *Whatever this is, it better be realy ... Wow!...*
- >In the middle of the clearing sits a perfectly smooth, perfectly spherical ball of glass.
- >Inside, a myriad of colors swirl in ever more complex patterns.
- *Hey Aria, do you know what it is?*
- >*Not a clue. I saw it when I was hunting, and I wanted to show you it.*
- *I am glad you did, this is amazing.*
- >Reaching over, you run your finger anlong her spine, making her emit a sound that is a mix between a hiss and a cats purr.
- >She flaps over and lands on your shoulder as you approach it.
- *You might want to climb inside me before I touch it, it might be dangerous.*
- >She immediately agrees, and you open your mouth for her to climb down.
- >She makes her way down your esophagus, and curls up in your stomach.
- >Reaching out, you try and touch the edge of the ball.
- >Your hand passes through, throwing you off balance, and you stumble into it.
- >The colors swarm around you, obscuring your vision and making you feel lightheaded.
- >*Anon, Whats wrong?*
- *I dont know Aria, some kind of magic. Unless I say so, I want you to stay inside me.*
- >*Okay, but be carefull*
- >you gently pat your stomach
- *I always am.*
- >Slowly the colors fade, and the lightheadedness dissapears, and you can start to make out details again.
- >Firstly, you are stuck inside the glass ball.
- >Next, the colors have dissapeared.
- >Finaly, and likely most importantly, you are nowhere you recognize.
- >You are floating in a large fountain in the middle of some sort of garden.
- >Surrounding you are an array of statues, as well as a number of small white horses wearing gold armour.
- >Scratch that, some are pegasii, and some are unicorns...
- *Aria, I think we are lost*
- >*What makes you say that?"
- *Horses, pegasii and unicorns in armour, and they seem intelligent, if not somewhat oddly porportioned.*
- >*WOW! Can I come up and see?*
- *Its better if you didn't, they dont seem too happy right now, so it would be best if we dont startle them... Whoah*
- >The ball suddenly begins to move, surrounded by an aura of color, matching a glow coming off some of the unicorns horns.
- >It floats out of the water, and lowers onto dry land, where it is immediately surrounded by several of the horses.
- >One of them pushes the ball, making you fall on your butt, and you can see some of the horses laugh.
- >*Hey, be carefull out there, I dont want to damage a wing while I'm in here*
- *That wasn't my fault, one of the horses pushed the glass ball, throwing me off balance.*
- >The horses outside seem to be talking, but you cant hear anything, and you feel the air starting to get stale.
- >Banging on the glass to get their attention, you make a motion like choking yourself to try and convey that the air is running out.
- >Two of the unicorns float in rocks, and begin smashing them against the ball, making cracks form.
- >Curling up into a ball, you hear one solid thump and the ball breaks, glass shards covering you.
- >A deep breath and shaking the glass off, you rise up, and look over at the equines.
- "Thank you for helping, I would have been in trouble if you hadn't helped."
- *Not realy, I could have just had you come out, and grow to full size.*
- >*I know, you are just being polite though.*
- >One of the unicorns speaks up, adressing you.
- >U"Stay where you are, and we will not have to attack."
- >You nod, and sit down slowly, so not as to provoke the guards or disturb Aria too much.
- >U"I believe some questions are in order. First, your name."
- "My name is Anonymous, or Anon for short."
- >U"Next, What are you?"
- "Human"
- >A number of the other guards whisper to eachother.
- >U"What is your profession?"
- "Myth guard. I protect what few Mythological creatures remain."
- >The Unicorn raises its eyebrows quizically.
- >U"Do you have proof of this?"
- "Yes, but you must promise not to overreact at what I am going to show you."
- >The guards nod, and step back.
- *Aria, I want you to come out."
- >*Are you sure Anon? You know how people react when they see this.*
- *If it means them not killing us, its good. And if they do attack, I'd rather have you outside.*
- >Tilting your head back, you relax your throat as Aria slowly climbs up and out.
- >A number of the guards gag as they see the bulge rise in your throat and when Aria emerges.
- "This is Aria, the last silver dragon in my home country. From before her birth I was tasked with guarding her, and as such, she has found enjoyment in sleeping inside my stomach."
- >U"I see, But I must ask, Why is she porportioned like an adult dragon, yet as small as a newborn?"
- "It is part of the bond we share. She has the ability to stay at this size, or return to her full size at a whim. She is about eighty feet long at normal size, seeing as she is a young adult."
- >U"You said Part of the bond. What are the other parts?"
- "They are currently inconsiquentioal, mainly some basic physiology changes for me and her."
- >The unicorn shakes his head.
- >U"Answer the question."
- "My digestive tract as well as respiratory tract are completely fireproof, as well as highly puncture resistant. Her scales are completely acid proof. The reasons for these should be fairly obvious."
- >U"Indeed. Next, how did you come to be here?"
- >Resisting the urge to make a birds and the bee's joke here, you explain the situation.
- "Aria had found a stange glass ball, the one you found me in, and she showed it to me. It was filled with swirls of colours, and when I touched it, I fell inside. Some form of magic or other happened, and I found myself here. If I may ask, where is here anyways?"
- >U"You are in the Canterlot royal gardens, in the land of Equestria. Where are you from?"
- "Not on my own world anymore, thats for sure."
- >U"You still are'nt answering the question."
- >You sigh, Aria nuzzling against you.
- "I don't technically have a home. Where I am from, Mythological creatures are hunted to extinction continually, and having one myself makes it near impossible to have a home, or even somewhere I can stay for any extended period of time. The country itself is called [Spoiler] REDACTED [/spoiler]."
- >The guards look between eachother confused, and the unicorn nods.
- >U"You certainly are not from this world. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna will have to be informed."
- >The one adressing you turns to a pegasus, and speak to him.
- >U"Go alert Captain Shining Armour, and tell him to bring the princesses as well."
- >P"Yes Sir!"
- >He takes off, flying towards the castle entrance.
- "What am I to expect with the princesses coming to see me?"
- >*hey, don't forget about me!"
- "And Aria as well?"
- >U"So long as you mean us no harm, Nothing is likely going to happen to you or your dragon friend."
- >You nod, and your mind starts thinking of all possible questions the princess might ask you.
- >*Calm down, just be yourself you'll be fine.*
- The sound of approaching hooves draws your attention up, and your jaw drops at what you see.
