Chapter 2- Eight's a Crowd
"It's okay, my name's Twilight," Twilight answered, "My friend here, Applejack, brought you to my library because she found you unconscious. What's your name?"
The colt opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a knock at the door.
"I'll get it," Spike said. Just as he got to the door though, it was opened from the outside.
"Oh, hi Spike!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she bounced into the room, "My Pinkie senses told me something was wrong, so I got our friends to come over with me!"
Right behind Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Rarity walked in, Spike blushing and grinning sheepishly as Rarity walked by.
"This better be good," Rarity said, "I'm missing valuable beauty sleep."
"Yeah, and I have to practice my flying techniques tomorrow." Rainbow Dash said.
"Oh my gosh, what happened?" Pinkie asked, finally noticing the mysterious colt, "Who is he? Is he hurt? Should I go get a doctor?"
"Pinkie Pie, calm down," Twilight ordered, "You can continue," she told the colt.
"As I was saying," the colt continued as he sat upright in the bed, "My name is Eli. At least, I think it is."
"What do you mean?" Twilight asked.
"Well, I can't seem to remember much, other than my name," he answered, blushing in embarrassment, "And even that I'm not sure of."
"It's okay sugar cube, I'm sure you'll be bright eyed and bushy tailed by tomorrow mornin'," Applejack said with an optimistic look on her face.
"Speaking of sleep," Rarity said as she yawned.
"Rarity's right, we should go and let Eli here get some sleep," Applejack said.
"Okay, I'll see you guys tomorrow," Twilight said as her friends left.
"Ooh! We should have a party tomorrow to welcome Eli to Ponyville!" Pinkie exclaimed as Spike pushed her out the door, "There'll be balloons, and streamers, and even cake!"
"At least that's over with," Spike said thankfully.
"So, Eli, do you know anything about the Pure Ones?" Twilight asked.
"Uh, nope. Doesn't ring a bell," Eli answered.
"Oh, never mind then. You should probably get some rest, I'm bringing you to a friend tomorrow," Twilight said.
"A friend? Who?"
"Her name is Zecora. She's a zebra that specializes in medicinal brews. She just might be able to cure your amnesia."
"Yeah, that sounds safe," Eli said sarcastically.
"Hey, don't worry. I'm sure you'll be just fine. Now seriously, get some rest."
"Okay, I will. By the way, thanks for letting me stay here."
"It's no problem. Besides, what kind of pony would I be if I didn't help another in need?"
"Well, thanks anyway. Good night Twilight, good night Spike."
"Good night Eli," replied Twilight, but Spike was already quietly snoring in his own bed, making Twilight chuckle.
What they didn't know was that somepony was watching them as their lights went off and Ponyville fell silent.
"Perfect," she thought to herself, "The prophecy has begun."
