001: There's No Place Like...[TEXT]

[ex_daio198]

[Twelve days had passed since his arrival in Ponyville. He had befriended(if you would call it befriending) a butterfly and Luna, both who had helped him go through the ins and outs of being a newcomer in Equestria. And ever since then, he had been cocky and arrogant, laughing at a few ponies' misfortune during the Poison Joke episode or being an overall jerk to others by demanding food to be cooked or attempting to rile those who had crossed his path. But today is different, very different. As of now, he's homesick and missing the way things used to be.

He wanted to go home and rule Dreamland, to boss his Waddle Dees around and have a few Gourmet Races with Kirby, but is it wise to want that? Before he made it here, he was captured by a huge spider who imprisoned him in a barrier and was taking him away to some unknown place. He doesn't want to deal with that. He doesn't want to experience the fear he had then, not knowing what was going to happen to him. Course he had been through worse and had came out of it with little trouble, but the fact that it's been happening constantly is getting to him. He haven't talked to anyone about it since those events occurred, not even to Bandanna Waddle Dee. He kept it all to himself. And now, sitting under an apple tree at Sweet Apple Acres staring at an apple in his hooves, he contemplates giving a small piece of himself to the public. But he isn't sure if that's a good idea, especially since he doesn't know anyone that well.

Taking a bite of the apple, he opens up the scroll and began to write. He isn't sure what came through his mind at the time, but he wrote it there anyway. Maybe he'll get an answer, maybe not. Regardless, he felt somewhat better asking a question like that. Not enough to eat all the apples on the apple tree, but enough to keep his hopes up or at the very least entertained. That's all anyone could ask for, right?]

So... you ponies who decided to make this your second home. Would you rather return to where you came from if you had the chance? Or would you live here to get away from it all?
