Anon in Pone Prison - Part VI

>Day 24 in Equestria
>Everything has been going pretty well since that night you had surgery
>Or that is what you would like to say
>But for some reason, Flizzy has been avoiding you since that night
>Whenever you ask her about it, each night her response is
>"Don't worry about it Anon. Just trust me."
>You trusted her, but it kinda hurt to have your best friend avoid you
>Especially because you were confined to a wheeling bed for the first few days
>Now you are in a wheelchair instead
>The doctors were using herbs on you that were working fantastically
>They burned slightly when they applied it, but Altruist Hope treated you very gently
>You much preferred him to Bright Blood, who you hope is being punished to the fullest extent of pony law
>The purple princess visited you everyday she continued to stay at the prison, which was about another four days
>For some reason, Umbright also visited you every day also; he tried to pretend not to care about your condition, but you saw right through that facade
>During the stay, Princess Sparkle assured you that the princess of the land, Celestia, who you can only briefly recall from the time she sentenced you to prison, will be handling things appropriately
>You never did get to hear what happened, though
>When she left, you actually felt extremely sad
>It was nice to be read bedtime stories once again
>Her stories of adventure were also wonderful
>You can't believe that her friends and her had fought literal gods
>This land must be so magical and wonderous; it is too bad you are trapped inside of the prison
>Someday, though, you will get out
>Whenever that was...
>The week was decently uneventful past that
>You allowed your new group of doctors to continue studying your body
>Apparently they had to, or else they would get in a lot of trouble, and potentially get fired
>The deal was that you had the final say in anything they did
>You even had them sign a contract Princess Sparkle had written up
>They were happy to do it; the princess even put in terms that were beneficial towards you that did not relate to the testing
>As payment for your suffering, the prison would give you the ability to make major decisions deciding renovation, within prison regulations and reason
>This meant you got to get your dream chair created with all of the added features you had ever wanted
>Perfectly form fitting, like the last chair, but without restraints
>It also had massage functions, a seat warmer, emitted a calming and pleasant aroma, and could hold any snacks you were allowed to bring into the room at the time
>The chair could not be removed from the room, but you were happy that you had such a wonderful chair
>Too bad you can't use it until you are out of this gosh darned wheelchair
>You are looking forward to that so badly
>Also, with the access to renovations, you had the ability to make a request for major renovations to the prison itself with the same level of authority that the Warden held
>The only other semi-eventful thing that had happened within the last week is that you had found out that the tricorn from the Basketball game was tested at the same times you were in the neighboring room
>Her room had a lot more strange contraptions than the rest of the rooms, though
>You even saw restraints in open view, which sketched you out
>The worst part is, you got to see them examine her once when you were running late
>She had several other types of creatures and many machines surrounding her while being restrained
>The worst part is, she was not even putting up any resistance; they had her restrained anyways
>You had decided to try and meet up with her after your tests two days in a row, but both times she seemed to either not care in the slightest or lack emotion
>She would not speak, make any noticeable reaction to anything you said, or do anything other than just stare at you
>It was like she was constantly analyzing you; staring into your deepest recesses, places you never want anyone to pry into
>She made you extremely uncomfortable every time you spoke to her, but she did not seem like a bad pony
>She always listened it seemed, she had never once turned away from you while you were speaking
>You were the one to disengage the conversation both times, you couldn't think of anything else to say to the pony
>You tried to get to know her, but not much progress was made
>"Never give up", that is your motto
>Well, it is actually "Never give up... until it becomes impossible, impractical to continue, or boring"
>But meh, you don't really care
>...
>That brings you to today
>You had awoken with Flizzy leaving earlier than you like she had been doing everyday lately
>You did not have any tests today or for the rest of the week
>Apparently your body was finishing its healing process and the herbs they were applying to your body could not be analyzed while they were breaking down or else they would "get too embarrassed and refuse to do their business", causing complications
>You really cannot even imagine herbs having a mind of their own like that, especially when they are getting "embarrassed"; this world really is very strange indeed
>After waking up and brushing your teeth, you leave your cell to get to the cafeteria
>The warden had spoken about getting a few new prisoners today
>She hadn't said anything more than that, but you were indeed intrigued
>That is why you woke up a bit earlier than usual
>You wanted to see who the new potential friends were
>Most of the prisoners you have met thus far were quite friendly, so you can't imagine that these creatures will be any different
>...
>As you enter the cafeteria, you recognize an unhappy looking Umbright sitting at a table alone like usual
>He hasn't noticed you yet
>You go get some food, delicious tofu chicken bathed in orange sauce with some cooked mixed veggies, and bring you and your tray over behind the lonely umbral pony
>He still has not seen you, which is surprising, due to you being in a big wheelchair and all
>Getting a funny idea, you sneak up as best you can behind him and whisper into his ear
"boo."
>Umbright jumps slightly and makes an unexpected moan
>"Ahhh~"
>You immediately back up as he quickly turns towards you with an angry glare, a large blush, and a small saliva trail drooling from his mouth
>Oops
"Sorry?.."
>He just wipes his mouth quickly and turns back towards his tray
>"Idiot."
>You laugh as you wheel yourself towards the table
"I said sorry, no need to be so angry."
>He just scoffs and continues to eat
>You continue to laugh at his pseudo-angry attitude before digging into your own food
>He is never truly angry at you, he is actually extremely sweet once you got to know him
>A good friend, though he really doesn't like to admit you two are friends
>You are not sure what past he must have had to dislike the idea of friendship, but you have never pried
"So. You hear about those prisoners?"
>Umbright responds flatly
>"Why would I care about the new prisoners coming?"
>You tease him
"I didn't ask if you cared, but if you knew. With my question now answered by yours, I will answer yours with 'because you want new friends'. Right?"
>Umbright gives a disgusted look on his face
>"If they are just more of these clowns I see everyday, I don't need them as 'friends'."
>Ouch, harsh
"That is not a very paragon thing of you to say."
>He completely misses that reference and just chooses to ignore you
"So. Anything else interesting up with yo--.."
>"ATTENTION PRISONERS! I NOW INTRODUCE YOU TO THE THREE NEW PRISONERS COMING HERE TODAY! A THREE FOR ONE DAY? HOW EXCITING!"
>And here they are, Freedom Keeper is introducing them to the cafeteria
>There are three different creatures, all very much different from one another
>The first is a tiny floating creature who has a blue trail following behind her whenever she moves
>She looks like a mixture between a fairy and a pony, she has a yellow flowing mane, big butterfly wings, large antennae, and is wearing a strange black suit
>You can't tell anymore than that about her, because she is too small for any other details to be seen from this distance
>"THIS HERE IS PLOOFIE, THE BREEZIE! I HOPE YOU ALL CAN BE VERY KIND TO HIM!"
>He?
>Well that is unexpected
>Well HE takes a look around the room, seeing all of the large scary creatures, then starts to cry
>You know exactly how he feels, it was not too long ago you were feeling pretty similar
>Freedom Keeper asks for Delicious Goods to help calm him down, who is happy to oblige; though the breezie starts to scream as the manticore grabs her and brings her into another room
>This obviously hurts Delicious Goods, but he continues to carry the screaming breezie into the kitchen to try and calm him down with whatever he baked this morning
>Poor guys, the both of them
>The second creature is a large red floating seafish mixed with a pony looking creature, who is looking extremely happy to see such a large audience staring at her
>"AND THIS IS SAMBA, A SIREN. SHE IS EXTREMELY ENTHUSIASTIC TO BE MEETING ALL OF YOU, I HOPE YOU WILL TEACH HER HOW WONDERFUL THIS PLACE REALLY IS!"
>Your energy starts feeling drained as the Siren begins to do a mesmerizing dance
>There is no music, but even without it, the movement of her body is so hypnotizing; it makes you want to cry
>Oh, wait, you are crying
>Everything seems so beautiful about the dance that you cannot stop staring at her while sobbing
>The entire room seems to share you sentiment, as everyone is also staring at her and crying
>As she finishes her dance, everyone, including yourself, gives her a large round of applause
>"SHE IS SO TALENTED! PLEASE TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER!" *sniffle*
>Even Freedom Keeper was crying during that performance
>She wipes her tears off and get ready to introduce the last of the three
>The last creature is leaning on the wall, rubbing his eyes not from crying, but from some sort of feeling of detest or annoyance
>This creature is a yellow-eyed light blue dragon with a shine covering him, as if his scales were glimmering from the lights shining around the room
>The back scales going down his back are completely see-through, looking like large diamonds protruding from his back more than actual back scales
>He only seems to be about your normal height, if not just a bit taller
>"THE LAST--"
>He cuts her off
>"Will you shut up? You are so bucking loud."
>The warden gives him a grinning look that seems like she is mockingly looking down on him more than angry
>He walks in front of the entire room
>"Now this is my type of place. A bunch of hideous looking beasts who obviously are dumb as bricks."
>You get a boner as he mentions bricks
>Whyboner.jpg
>He then points at himself
>"From now on, I am your new leader. Whoever your previous gang leaders are can go choke on a tulip, because I am the best. All of you now will do whatever I say when I say it. If you don't, I will make you regret it."
>He then spits out a massive purple flame
>The room goes silent, other than the whispers of some of your fellow prisoners
>You can guess what they are all thinking
>"What is up with this weirdo? What a loser!"
>Some prisoner screams that
>...some prisoner very close to you
>...some prisoner sitting right next to you
>...some prisoner that is currently snickering at the self-proclaimed new "leader" of the prison
>Some prisoner named Umbright
>"Who said that?!"
>The dragon flips out on the stage and yells that, spitting out a flame out of his mouth in anger
>He comes into the crowded cafeteria area where the voice came from
>He looks over at your table
>"It was one of you, I can tell it."
>Oh gosh
>"So who was it?!"
>He growls viciously towards you two
>Umbright, containing his laughs, points at you
>"So it was you? Huh?"
>Huh?
>He gets way too close for your own comfort and starts snarling in your face, smoke coming from his nostrils
>The smoke from his nostrils goes into yours, causing you to sneeze
"Achoo!"
>As you sneeze, you tilt your head forwards, accidentally headbutting him in the nose
>"GRAAH!"
>He recoils back in pain and kneels clutching his nose
>Oh shit
>You take the napkin and quickly wipe your nose, then reach out your hand
"Sorry dude. It was a complete accident."
>He grabs your hand and drags you down to his kneeling level, which causes your surgery wound to hurt a lot
>"Trying to make me kneel before you with a single hit? I commend you on your sneaky tactic, but your failure to knock me out is your last mistake."
>He stands back up and lifts you up to your feet with your arm
"Argh!"
>"Any last words fleshy pink creature?"
>As your surgery wound is at risk of opening up, you try to go fetal without even thinking, lifting your legs off the ground, causing the dragon to start tipping off-balance
>"Stop tha--"
>This causes you even more pain, as gravity now tugs on your upper body fully, causing your legs to quickly extend in front of you, trying to find the closest grasp to rest onto to reduce the amount of force caused by gravity
>The extending of the legs go right into the dragon's abdomen, forcing him to let go of you as you fall backwards onto your chair and he flies backwards into a table
>You grasp your stomach as you realize that the feeling of your wound opening was all just the muscles in pain around that area, as your wound has already healed into a closed up scar
>You look over and see the dragon laying on a knocked over table, also clutching his stomach and trying to breath
>Damn, you knocked the wind out of him badly
>You try and wheel over to the downed dragon
"Are you okay?"
>He is still resting and holding his abdomen where you kicked, trying to collect his breath
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do either of that. It was a complete accident."
>Freedom Keeper walks over and look over at the knocked over dragon
>"UH OH! THIS WAS A BAD BEGINNING FOR YOU! LET ME HELP YOU UP!"
>She helps the wheezing dragon back on his feet
>The sound of howling laughter is coming beside you, as Umbright is now clutching his stomach also, but for a completely different reason
>He is laughing and pointing mockingly at the dragon
>"You got knocked out by a somepony in a wheelchair! Ahahahaha!"
>The dragon is still clutching his abdomen and trying to regain his breath, but is trying to look at intimidating as possible by snarling towards the both of you
>This really doesn't phase you, as you are used to being around a dragon MUCH larger and potentially scarier than he is
"Seriously dude... I am sorry for accide--.."
>He just cuts you off and yells as best as he can after getting kicked so hard in his solar plexus
>"I am going to get you..! *huff* Y-You better watch out..!"
>Freedom Keeper looks around the cafeteria
>"AS I WAS SAYING, THE LAST PRISONER IS SLAZD. I HOPE YOU ALL WILL TREAT HIM WELL."
>You just decide that this was enough food for now, you just wanna get away from him as fast as possible
>He is pretty weird, after all
>His threats really don't phase you that much, maybe if he came before you nearly died twice and became best friends with Flizzy, but this just felt like a child lashing out and trying to be the big boy on campus
>As you leave, you hear Freedom Keeper asking for volunteers to become cell partners with any of the three new prisoners
>Exiting into the hallway you decide to get back to your room
>...
>The rest of the day goes pretty boring as nobody even tries to visit you
>Umbright stayed behind to taunt the new dragon, Slazd
>You sat around the rest of the day reading Daring Do novels Princess Sparkle left for you
>...
>After a few hours of reading "Daring Do and the Wizard's Stone", the spin-off series written around Daring Do's childhood, you hear someone enter your cell
>It must be Flizzy
"Hey Flizzy. I'm going to be reading for a bit longer, mind keeping the lights on if you are going to sleep?"
>There is no response
"Flizzy?"
>You lower your book and look up to see an individual you never would have expected to enter your cell
>It is the tricorn
>She is staring at you unspeaking and devoid of emotion, like usual, while standing completely still
>You stare at her as she stares at you for a few seconds, neither of you moving a muscle
>The awkward silence is killing you, as you decide to be the one who breaks it
"Hello? Did you need me?"
>The tricorn just continues to stare silently
>This is really creepy, you think
"Are you alright? Do you need something?"
>She just keeps staring
"No... Seriously. Can I do something for you?"
>As you say that, she looks down at the book
>You have absolutely no clue what the hell is going on, but you are gonna take whatever guesses you can to try and find out what she is doing here
"This book? Were you hoping to borrow it?"
>The tricorn keeps looking at the book
"Did you want to read it?"
>The tricorn does not respond
"Ummm... I don't get it. Did you come here to speak to me?"
>She looks back up to you and takes a step forward
>You pick back up the book and motion to her
"Well if you want to have a conversation, there kinda needs to be two actively engaged parties."
>You continue to look at her for a few seconds, as she stops and stares once again at you silently
"Well if you don't want to speak what you want, I will just go back to reading my book."
>You place the book up back to your face, pretending to read it, trying to elicit a reaction from the unicorn
>After a minute or so of waiting for the unicorn to react, you start to get sick of it
>You decide to show her you are reading and not paying attention to her any longer; hopefully that will get a reaction out of her, or at least get her to leave
"And Daring Do's rival Drago Marefoy said, 'Hare-mione, you are a disgusting half-earth pony. Also you have a smelly va--'"
>As you start to read, you feel something rest on your lap
>You look down and see the tricorn laying her head onto your lap, while closing her eyes
>After a few seconds of the reinstated silence, she opens her eyes and looks up to you
"W-What?"
>You are so extremely confused
>You place down the book on the table, but as soon as you do, her three coiled horns begin to glow and the book floats back up towards your face
>This is a reaction you did not expect, but you will play off of it
>You take the book that is floating in front of your face and look back down towards the tricorn
>She is still staring at you
>You decide to put the book back down to see what she will do
>She does the exact same as before, floating the book back towards your face until you grab it
>You do it again and she reacts the same exact way
>She just keeps staring at with her large grey eyes
>You decide to try what prompted this in the first place once again
"And then Hare-mione took Drago and bucked him in the teeth. 'How's that feel BEEYATCH?!', she yelled over the crying unicorn. Daring Do decided to go over and--"
>You look back down and see the tricorn once again closing her eyes
>After a few seconds of silence, she opens them back up and stares at you
"I am not one hundred percent sure, but did you want me to read to you?"
>The tricorn snuggles her head into your lap and closes her eyes once again as a response
"Huh... I mean, I was planning on reading anyways. I don't really mind, I guess.."
>You decide to once again pick up the book and start reading aloud to the tricorn resting on your lap
>...
>After a chapter, you decide to take a small break to see what the tricorn was up to
>You look down to see the tricorn staying motionless on your lap, her breaths long and rhythmic, and her eyes gently closed
>While you were not a hundred percent sure, you think she is asleep
>This tricorn you barely even know randomly came into your cell, creeped you out, then went to sleep on your lap while you read to her
>You honestly have no idea how to feel about all of this
>If she remains asleep on your lap, you will not be able to get out of your chair and go to bed yourself
>What should you do?
>Maybe she is faking it and is actually still awake
>Err, probably not. She is would have likely been looking up at you again by now, as you have stopped reading at least 30 seconds ago
>You look at your bed, then the book, then down at the sleeping tricorn... then the bed, then the book, then down at the sleeping tricorn... bed, book, tricorn, bed, book, tricorn..
>This goes on for a few dozen seconds, as you try and problem solve out whether waking this tricorn was worth getting to bed yourself
>In the end, you decide to just allow the tricorn to continue sleeping
>You weren't even tired after all, maybe she would wake up later while you are reading
>Oh well then, can't help it. Better just get back to reading, not like you don't enjoy it
>You pick the book back up and once again start reading aloud the words to the pony sleeping on your lap
"Daring Do then faced the large griffon, without fear, and blasted a spell out of her magically enlarged crotch-ti--"..
>...


>Be Flizzy
>The work you have been doing to surprise Anon will all be worth it once he sees it
>While you have a decent amount of friends in the prison, none of them will do something as large as you are planning for free
>They would likely do it if you told the reason you were doing it, but with how many gossips are inside of this prison you do not want to risk Anon finding out at all
>So you have been doing the work they need done for them so that they will help you, a favor for a favor
>Delicious Goods needed your assistance in building a new oven out of scrap
>The element of harmony, Rarity, was able to be contacted to create the perfect attire for the occasion, at the price of a few of your scales
>Freedom Keeper promised to reserve the cafeteria for a night if you promised to help her with the decorations for a future event she has planned
>Victor Vivisector, the small red demon monkey who cooked the food in the cafeteria, promised to cook for your surprise after you saved him from a bunch of mutated animal-monkey hybrids
>Rocko Value promised to make the "special gift" if you used your flame breath and massive strength to help him forge some large metals into shape for his art projects
>Fancy Flora and her friends sold some of her finest goods to you for some spare bits you saved up over the last few months
>And the guards promised to make sure nopony interfered with the event, because the warden told them to
>Everything is almost fully prepared
>Now that you have absolutely everything, you just have to choose the date and get the place decorated
>While you are indeed nervous, you feel extremely confident that all of your hard work will pay off
>You have never been so determined to get absolutely everything perfect, which, mixed with the fact you have never done it in this way before, likely is why everything took so very long
>Maybe tomorrow or the next day
>No. Definitely tomorrow, he is going to hear from you tomorrow
>Procrastinating for no reason is the worst idea
>...
>You finish your bowl of buffalo imitation stew, the fake meat being so realistic that even you cannot tell the difference between the real thing and it, and leave the cafeteria
>The planning is complete and you have a set date for when you are going to surprise Anon, everything is all ready
>So it is tomorrow, you are going to get back to your cell and get some sleep, as you need to wake up early enough to start getting the evening ready
>You hope you don't wake Anon, he needs all the sleep he can get
>Poor hyooman didn't need to go through all of that cruelty Bright Blood and those terrible doctors did
>If you ever saw that Bright Blood face to face, you would
>You start to get extremely angry
>YOU WOULD
>The anger is rising
>You roar and spew fire into the air as you channel your uncontrollable rage from last week at the memory of Anon's suffering, including the suffering his body has been through all week
>Though Anon wouldn't want to see you angry again, and you want him to forget that horrible day, so you must control yourself and think of him; you won't let that sort of thing happen again
>You stop roaring and close your eyes, calming yourself
>After some deep, smoke exhaling, breathing you finally calm yourself
>As you open your eyes, you see some prisoners in the cells you stopped by looking at you in fright
>Oh for Celestia's sake
>You walk off in embarrassment towards your cell, hiding your face; you don't like to be seen losing control
>...
>As you see your cell in the distance, you notice that there is light visible from the cell
>Anon must be reading again, surprising as you never really thought of him as the nerdy type
>You think for a second
>"Well he always has been gentle and kind, I guess it is not too strange for him to like reading."
>You smile to yourself as you think of your little hyooman reading his book
>The sounds of him gently laughing and whispering the words he is reading out loud without even realizing it makes you feel warm inside
>You begin smiling as you think of seeing either a sleeping Anon or a reading Anon once you enter your cell
>As you get to your cell, you look inside of it to see a sleeping Anon
>But that is not all you see
>You see Anon sleeping with a book on his chest and.. a pony sleeping on his lap
>What?
>You don't know what you are seeing, but you start to feel a mixture of fear and rage; a feeling you don't like and have never felt before
>You start to enter your cell, opening the door and shutting it very quietly
>Your large size always clangs against the metal, but this time you took extra care not to make any noise whatsoever
>Instead of heading straight to bed, you begin to walk over to the sleeping Anon and pony to see exactly what this is
>Anon MUST have gone to sleep while reading; there would be no reason for the book to be on his chest otherwise
>While you are not completely sure, this is what you keep telling yourself in your head to try and ease these confusing feelings you are experiencing
>As you bring yourself closer, you recognize the tricorn as being the pony from the game you played with Anon last week
>You place your face close to hers and begin to analyze every little detail about her and the surroundings
>First, you see if Anon's pants were undone in any areas
>No, they do not seem to be
>Then you start looking at her from all angles, attempting to deduce why she would possibly be sleeping on Anon's lap
>Is she attractive; does Anon find her attractive?
>That question keeps going through your mind involuntarily
>You try to ignore your own question to try and deduce what is possibly happening here
>Maybe sh--..
>The tricorn opens her eyes and stares directly into yours, as your head floats next to her tiny one
>After a few seconds, the tricorn smiles at you, closes her eyes, then snuggles her head back into a comfortable position on Anon's lap
>What?
>Your chest begins to hurts in a strange, non-truly painful way, as your stomach begins to experience a strange form of nausea
>This doesn't feel right
>But while you focus on this terrible feeling you are suddenly overcome with, your mind starts racing with so many thoughts it is hard to keep track of them
>Most of the thoughts are of the pony and Anon's relationship with one another, the pony's intentions right there, a lot of 'what ifs', and the thought of the surprise going extremely badly
>These thoughts don't help the strange nausea, instead they only make it worse, but you can't wave them away
>You continue to stare silently at the tricorn for an unknown length of time, feeling close to an eternity, as this terrible feeling you are experiencing continues to grow worse and worse
>You want to kill this tricorn, but you don't want to at the same time
>"What if killing this tricorn made Anon sad?" was one of the worst questions that happened through your mind, followed by "Would Anon be sad if I died?"
>You quickly pull away from the tricorn and turn away towards your bed
>This is worse than finding an enemy that can bring certain doom to your entire tribe, or at least it feels that way
>Why do these feelings keep making you feel so sick and scared
>It is scary, you don't like it
>You slowly walk over to the bed and attempt to go to sleep
>"I don't want to think about this."
>You constantly keep thinking that to yourself as you attempt to fight these terrible thoughts assailing you as violently as possible
>"Shut up."
>You whisper to yourself, but the doubt keeps up
>"Shut up!"
>You continue to whisper to yourself, but this unknown feeling refuses to go away
>Over and over, you speak to yourself, trying to channel every deity your tribe has ever worshipped to rid you of these evil thoughts
>But none of them answer, as you just keep thinking of Anon and the mysterious tricorn sleeping right across the room
>For seemingly hours, you are assailed by the thoughts, unknown emotions, and torment
>...
>You finally are able to sleep, but not before looking at Anon and the tricorn once again before closing your eyes
>All you dream about for the rest of night is the surprise you had been planning failing over and over, in many different ways
>Dream after dream you are assailed by a nightmare that defies your logic for what should be considered scary, somehow being more frightening than any other nightmares you have ever had before
