MidnightRead

Midnight was amazed how much she and this Mare had in common. She smiled back at Silver. "I don't really have alot of friends here because I always have my nose stuck in a book," Midnight said sighing, "I find fictional characters better friends than real ponies" She said laughing a little bit, "Well, no...I hate it here." She said rolling her eyes, "Most ponies are stuck up and just plain rude" She said muttering to herself,

Midnight raised one brow at the excited colt, "Trust me, by the time we get back to our world I will be the same pony," She said sighing, "The only adventure I will get is though books..." She said taking another berry and popping it in her mouth,

Midnight Read was fascinated by Val's knowledge and also rather grateful. "I'm lucky have you then," She giggled, "Like I said I would never stand a chance without you," She sighed, "I have only read about them, I have never had full experience." She said finishing off her bottle of water,

Midnight examined the contents and grinned at Val "Impressive" She said placing the bottle down gently, "What else do you know?" She asked curious, "If you don't mind me asking..." She said blushing, She picked up another berry and popped into her mouth and chewed on it letting the flavor spread across her tongue. Midnight wondered what amazing adventures her new friend has gone through.

Midnight couldn't help but be confused at his odd behavior. She shook her head convincing herself it's all in her head. Midnight lifted up some berries and put a small pile in front of Val and another small pile in front of herself. She noticed the small bottle that Val had also brought in she hadn't noticed before and lifted it up as she popped a berry into her mouth, "What's this?" She asked curiously,

Midnight stopped reading and looked up from the pile of berries from the book. And nodded to herself, she sorted the berries into two piles and pointed her hood from while pile to the other, "This is the safe berries," She said pointing to the pile of blue berries, "And these aren't safe" she said pointing to blood red colored strange shaped berries. She turned her gaze away from the berries to face Val and saw his confused face. "Is anything wrong?" She asked,

Midnight was about to protest but he had gone before she could say a word. Midnight wondered if she should go out after him but he was back again before she could lift a hoof. She teleported her herb's and berries book from thin air and flicked the pages as Val dropped the berries in front of as she studied the pages carefully. This is where Midnight truly came alive, with her nose stuck in a book and hearing nothing but her own voice read the word out in her head.

Midnight Read turned her head to the colt, and smiled light lightly, "I'm fine," she said while turning back to the cave entrance, "I'm just thinking about the food that could be out there, I've read about about all the wild herbs and berries that is safe to eat so we should be fine..." She said trying to change the subject and taking a another sip of her water,

Midnight lifted up the book and placed it into a plain white bag. Midnight sighed, "Lucky you, I would do anything to get out of Canterlot," She said with a small smile, "No, it's my mother's," She sad muttering to her self,"She is busy doing business in Fillydelphia to be looking after it so thats where I come in..." She said while rolling her eyes, "Run in terror? Why in Equestria would they do that?", Midnight asked confused, sure the mare said she wasn't really popular but running away in terror?

Midnight lifted the 5 bits and put them into the rusty till which was placed on the counter. Midnight smiled back, "Midnight Read." Midnight blushed "Same here, when I was a little foal reading was way more important than playing with other foals," Midnight replied, Midnight saw the tired smile on the mare's face, "You look like you have been looking at the stars for too long, when have you last slept?" Midnight asked quietly,

"Oh, I'm not really looking for anything particular, I was ju-" ​Midnight started to say quitely but noticed the colt wasn't listening but had his eyes locked onto a red piece of parchment, Midnight caught a glimpse of the text, with a type of language she had never seen in a book before, "What language is that?" She asked him,

Best.Episode.Ever. I love all the songs and after I have seen the changelings I am sure this is not a show for kids and also, LUNA! But the ending was amazing, many tears were shed

"You have to be the last pony standing." She said before taking another sip, "But, easy said than done.." She said trying to keep her mind of what she would do if she and Val were the last ponies standing... Midnight looked back to the entrance to the cave drinking her water shakily.

Midnight blushed, "Like I said, I'm just trying to follow the main character," She said taking a sip, "But trust me, without you I wouldn't stand a chance..." She said looking at the entrance of the cave, wondering where the other ponies could be and how many were left...

Midnight blushed, "What makes me so different in this world?" She asked him confused, Midnight lifted Val's water bottle in the air, "I picked this up by the way," She said while passing it to him before taking a drink from her own.

Midnight grinned at Val. "Come one, we better go before anything else shows up..." She said while giggling. Midnight went to the river once again and lit up her horn to see in the darkness better. She walked down by the river and search for a place to set up camp. After a couple of minute of searching she found a empty cave. She grabbed some wood and set up a small campfire in the cave. "I found a place to set up camp." She shouted to Val

Midnight looked behind her as she was running seeing the monster was close on their tale determined to have them as a snack. Midnight tried to think of ideas from the hero of the book. They could hide up in a tree, but if other ponies were to find them they wouldn't be able to do anything.. Her mind raced to other ideas, they could hide in a cave... there should be some next to the river... Midnight suddenly turned around, "Head back to the river!" She shouted to Val

Midnight Read stared in horror at the creature. "It's a muttation, she said "It's an animal or...pony who has been changed into a monster by the gamemakers" She said The creature had only been stunned for couple of moments, until it was back on it's feet, it charged towards Midnight but she kicked it away and now it was more angry... "Run!" She shouted to Val,

Midnight wanted to tell him that there were no locals here, but it looked like the thought reassured him so she decided not to. "Your probably right it must just be a-" Midnight started to say but a another large rustle in the bushes stopped her in mid-sentance. Midnight squinted into the bushes to see if anything was there, she took a few steps forward to get a better look.

Midnight saw the expression on Val's face. She got up. "What is it?" She asked him, She squinted her eyes into the bushes seeing nothing. Midnight looked at Val who's eyes was locked onto the jungle. Midnight took a few steps forward to the jungle trying to get a closer look.

Midnight took a sip of water from the bottle, she looked at her surroundings again. "We can sleep here tonight, but we can't light any fires to keep ourselves warm. It will give away our position" She said quietly, Midnight heard a rustle in the bushes, and turned her head towards the sound. "Did you hear that?" She asked Val while turning her head to him,

Midnight Read stared into the fire. What had she done? She had brought a colt she had just met to a world where 24 ponies are thrown into an arena to fight themselves and the elements. Sure they were doing well...They had already found water, now all they needed was shelter. Midnight Read looked up the quickly setting sun. And she and Valoren were the last two what would happen? She saw that he was still staring into the forest, she would work it out in the morning all they needed to focus on now was shelter. She checked the water and guessing it had boiling for a couple of minutes now she put the fire out. "I think the water is done," She called over to Valoren who was still staring into the jungle.

Midnight Read thought for second and remembered. "We need to take that water and boil it.." She said while gathering some twigs to light a fire. She placed the twigs in a pile and set them alight, "It will only take a couple of minutes, then we have to find shelter..." She said while turning her head towards the jungle to make sure no ponies were coming.

Midnight felt herself being pulled back as she saw a spiked log swing to where her head was just moments ago. "Thanks," She said trying to laugh it off, she got up and looked at the swinging log. "We better be careful from now on, this must be a quarter quell," Seeing the confused look on the pegasus' face she explained further, "It is when the gamemakers add a little 'twist' to the Pony Games, and this year they have added traps." She said looking at the water suspiciously, "We better filter this before we drink it, just to be sure," She said turning to face Valoren,
