WASSUP EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!

ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE????????

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Heh, yeah. You're right."

He says and stands up. He stretches a bit before grabbing his pack and slinging it over his shoulder. You quickly change into leggings and a yellow dress. You pick up your backpack and follow right behind him.

You pay the inn keeper and head out into the town square. You ask him where the entrance to Equestria is, but he says that it unfortunately got covered up long ago.

You thank him and pull Blue down a rocky road. He looks confused, but you keep walking.

"I think I got it."

He says and pulls out some cloth and a paintbrush. You watch as he starts to carefully draw the entrance in the ground.

"Exactly! The inn keeper was lying. I'm so glad you saw that too! If we just keep heading east, we'll make it there by sundown tomorrow."

He says and continues to draw.

"He seemed scared. Was there something wrong?"

"Everything's wrong, but that's not the point! The point is, he made stuff up to try to scare me."

"My guess is that the journey is going to be very difficult. Good thing I know where we are going huh?"

He beams at your agreement.

The next morning, you set up camp and head out first light. You walk for hours. Hours that should have been spent sleeping instead of walking, but you couldn't stop. You see a big pawprint in the road and you stop. You look around and listen, but hear nothing. You look at the ground again and see a big pawprint. It looked like a ginormous cat paw print.

"It couldn't be." you thought.

You continue down the road, now filled with curiosity.

You look back to see Blue struggling. You reach back and grab his hand.

"Come on."

He says, but his voice sounds strained. He tries to pull himself up, but can't manage it.

"No, Blue, we can't give up yet. We are so close. Hang on."

You help him back up and continue on. After a few minutes, you both reach the bottom of the hill and find yourself right where you were before the hill. Blue's eyes go wide and he collapses onto the ground, gasping.

"We can't be so stupid. It can't be anywhere this far west."

You lean over and whisper in his ear. He looks up at you, smiling weakly.

"Don't worry. There is something here that can help. I'm sure if I call her over, she'll help."

You walk over to a nearby rock and call out as loud as you can.

"Kitty! Kitty! Over here!"

You hear a rumbling coming from the trees.

"Quick, come over this way."

Kitty, the giant black cat, comes over to you in bounding leaps. She leaps onto you and purrs very loudly.

"Hey there, girl. Good to see you...?"

You look up to see a very surprised Blue standing nearby with his jaw dropped.

"You...you called a cat?"

Kitty hisses at Blue and he steps back a little. You shush Kitty down and give Blue the evil eyes.

"It's OK, I know her. She's a good girl."

You stroke her head and she seems to calm down a bit, but still hisses at Blue.

"Since you are weak, no offense, I called a ride. Get on. Kitty, be nice, he's important to me."

You rub her head and she sits down to give you a look that seems to say 'you're an idiot for trusting this creature'.

Blue finally gets it.

"Oh, yeah. Right."
