(1-1) A Long Journey

Recommended Posts

Traveller moved through the think brush. He threw the apple core away. Ambiance asked him for some water and he turned around to see Ambiance, her mane blowing. He held in a snicker. She hadn't realized he was watching.

 

'Here ya go Ambiance.' He said with a smile as he held out the water bottle to her.

Ambiance opened her eyes. She noticed that Traveller was watching her, holding out a bottle of water. She immediately shrunk, and blushed crimson. She sat there blinking, awkwardly looking upward, with a sheepish smile.

 

"U-ummm... Th-thank y-you..."

 

She said it, but still did not reach for her drink.

Traveller let out a small laugh. 'Its ok. I talk to myself when I travel. Like, a lot. I'll come up with entire stories.' He said with a shrug. 'Besides, you looked nice. No reason to be embarrassed.' He said with a warm smile as he shook the water bottle again, motioning for her to take it.

She calmed herself down. She still felt a little awkward and emberassed. She reached out her hoof, and grabbed the bottle of water. She immediately chugged it, in order to calm herself down. She got herself up, and began to trot off again.

 

"W-wait... you th-think I look g-g-good?"

Traveller nodded. 'Y-yeah. Sorry.' He apologized. He admitted, she was nice looking by all means. He cursed himself for saying it out loud. 'Sorry.' He said again as he moved through the brush. He thought he could see the end of the forest. He smiled. 'I think we're almost there.'

She acted as kind as possible. She knew all too well what it felt like to be extremely embarrassed. All too well. She continued to follow him until he pointed out the edge of the forest. She stepped out, and saw an open area.

 

"F-finally... Out of th-this f-forest..."

'Yup.' Traveller said happily. He was glad to be out of there for once. He moved down a dirt path. 'We are about 10 minutes out of Ponyville.' He said as the two walked. It was a grassy field with little trees. He smiled. 'Ready to be there already?' He asked, trying to make small talk.

Finally... civilization. She had lived in Ponyville for a while, but she had never really felt at home there. She never really felt at home anywhere.

 

"S-so, wh-what are we d-doing in P-ponyville again? I kn-know we have to b-be there, but wh-why?"

 

She held a confused look on her face, but tried to look serious.

'We need to deliver this package. After that, we are free for a while. This should get us enough bits for a while.' Traveller answered as they walked into Ponyville. Ponies milled around, doing various things. They came to a small postal office. Traveller went in and put the parcel where it went and got out. 'Thats it. We should get payed soon.' He said happily.

She trotted alongside Traveller as they wandered through Ponyville, and delivered the package.

 

"Y-you know, theres o-one thing I-i n-never understood.... Y-you can f-fly, so wh-why did you b-bring me along on th-thes d-deliveries?"

 

She looked at Traveller curiously.

'Oh...that.' Traveller said looking down.

 

'I never flew very well. Good enough to pass my flight test, but never amazingly. I walked all the time. You seemed to be lonely so that's why I asked you to come along. Once you get your half of the money, you're free to go along. I just thought you might want to...'

 

He explained. He felt selfish now. 'Im sorry. I can always give you my half to make up for it...'

"N-no! D-don't say that! I came with you b-because I w-wanted to. D-don't you dare think y-you made me, or th-that I'd want to l-leave. A-and I'd never take your money!"

 

She looked at him with a wierd combination of agitation and worry. She was familar with feeling unwanted. She was accustomed to feeling like that.

 

"Wh-why do you th-think I'd want to l-l-leave?"

Traveller shrugged. 'W-well, most of the ponies I've traveled with usually left me right after they got their half...and you sounded like you regretted coming...' He said with sadness. Ambiance as his third companion, and both before had left right after they got their pay. He wanted a friend for once.

"Well, th-then they aren't r-really y-your friends. Y-you've been a-alone for a wh-while, h-h-haven't you?"

 

Ambiance felt like she was being a little intrusive, but she knew she had to ask. Traveller just seemes so lonely... An emotion she was all too familiar with.

Traveller nodded. 'Yeah...I haven't seen my family in half a year and my last traveling partner left three weeks ago...' He replied. He really missed his younger brother and his mom, but he said he wouldn't come back until he traveled all of Equestria. He would stick by that promise.

Ambiance saw that Traveller was getting sad again. He wasn't going to feel that way for long, if she had anything to do with it.

 

"I-it's okay, b-because I w-won't leave y-you. No m-matter what y-you d-do, I'll be h-here for y-you."

 

She looked at him with caring eyes,and gestured her hooves, trying to give him a hug.

Traveller smiled and hugged Ambaince. 'T-thanks.' He said tiredly. He pulled back and looked around. 'We should go get our money...the guy who ordered will pay us.' He said as he looked at a small slip of paper with all the information. He motioned towards a street. 'He lives that way.'

Ambiance felt happy that her friend had accepted her hug. The feeling partially waned as she heard mention of thier unfinished business.

 

"U-um, right. W-we should get g-g-going... "

 

She began to trot in the direction that Traveller was pointing, motioning for him to follow.

 

"W-well, come on!"

Traveller nodded and trotted with Ambaince. They came to a two story brick building. Traveller knocked on the door and a purple stallion answered.

 

'Yes?'

 

Traveller held out the slip of paper he got from the post office that confirmed the delivery.

 

'Oh. Right.' The stallion said as he grabbed a bag. He levitated it and placed it on Traveller's back. 'There is your money.' Was all he said before closing the door.

 

'Well he was...grumpy.' Traveller said before turning around. 'We should go find a hotel or something.'

"Y-yeah..."

 

She chuckled a little, and made a fake grumpy expression.

 

"Look at me. I'm mad. Take your money and go!"

 

She did a series of exagerated gestures to show being grumpy. She grew a little emberrassed.

 

"O-oh wait... A-am I b-b-being m-mean by doing th-this... I-i'm sorry..."

Traveller shrugged. 'Eh, you're joking. Whatever.' He said as he shifted the bag. 'Well, we certainly got payed well...' He mumbled as they walked to where Traveller usually stayed on his trips to Ponyville. It was a 3 story wooden building that had a few rooms. Not very often did ponies go there, and that's why Traveller liked it. He payed for the room and went into it.

 

'Two beds, and a small dining room/kitchen. Relax for a while I guess.'

Ambiance sighed in deep releaf, removed her saddlebag, and layed down on her bed. She stared at the ceiling. She was silent. She pondered her thoughts and just stared. She pondered her thoughts, and stared into what seemed like nothing. She was finally relaxing. She stared, despite the fact tha Traveller was there.

Traveller gave a small laugh. 'You get lost in your head more than I do. I've ended in wrong buildings for that.' He said with a smile. He placed all of his stuff down and lay on his bed. His hooves were sore from the entire journey. He often walked nonstop, and this was no different.

She continued staring for a few minutes, giving an extremely delayed response. There was no words, only what seemed to be a sqeak. She was extremely emberrassed, and began to blush. She then hid her head under her pillow. It was one of the most emberrassing things that had happened to her. She normally kept it to herself. She tried to speak again, and let out another squeak.

Traveller frowned. 'Uh, Ambiance...? You ok?' He asked, looking over at the mare at the opposite side of the room. She had her head under a pillow and he could barely make out a sound. 'Ambiance...? Ambiance.' He asked again, getting alarmed about his new friend and traveling partner.
