Anons Triathlon Ch4: Day one.

> You stared up at the night sky.
> Something about tonight was off.
> You were Rainbow Dash.
> And boy were you nervous.
> It had been three whole months since the triathlon was supposed to go on.
> Then Discord went and ruined.
> You had been training extra hard for the last few months, doing as many workouts as you could on top of work and saving the world.
> Simple stuff right?
> Then there was the whole 'Anon' deal.
> Apparently the dingus went and ran away after you had told him.
> It was just a prank...
> When he went and overreacted he caused your poor friend Twilight to search for him, despite no leads she had been looking gradually in the last few months.
> Something about Celestia being unhappy about Anon running away or something.
> You didn't really care, she was sound asleep by now.
> The search for Anonymous went cold after Iron Will stopped coming into town.
> For some reason he seemed upset with every pony except for a hoofful of them.
> Twilight had said she had a lead on Anon through Iron Will but he always seemed to evade her.
> And you...
> And your friends...
> For a dude that big he could hide very well.
> You start off with one-hundred pushups, to get your blood pumping.
> Oh well, enough about Anonymous.
> Loser wouldn't have done well in the Triathlon anyway.
> Rarity and AJ agreed.
> Halfway through your set that uneasy feeling takes hold of you again.
> What was so bad that it was causing you too feel like this!?
> With a groan you fall down, trying to ignore the feeling of dread.
> Maybe if you could fly for a bit...
> The world turned into a blur as you took into the sky.
> Within seconds the feeling of dread was gone.
> Replaced by your usual cocky attitude.
"Watch out Iron mare! Here comes the Dash!"
> You are Anon...
> And
> You
> Were
> Done....
> Sliding your arm out of the bed you pull yourself out, now well used to waking up at two in the morning.
> Upping the ante really helped.
> Sliding out of the bed you place your feet on the ground, the floor creaking under your weight.
> You got up and lumbered over to the bathroom of the cabin.
> You stopped to look at yourself in the mirror.
> A nearly unrecognizable man stared back.
> Your flab was gone completely, replaced by stacks of muscle.
> Months without shaving had left you with a thick, bushy beard.
> Two fierce green eyes stared back at you from behind the man in the mirror.
> You look at your arms which were practically alien at this point, your biceps being bigger and thicker than a stallions head.
> Looking down you could no longer see a protruding gut,but rather the actual floor.
> Turning back to the mirror you grab the busted tooth brush and stare at it.
"Out with the old."
> You tossed it in a stained trashbin next to the sink.
> Turning back to leave the bathroom your front door burst open.
> Iron Will charged forward, one fist raised and an enraged look in his eye.
> You stood your ground, glaring at him.
> He shot his fist forward.....
> And you connected yours with his, a shockwave of some sort reverberating throughout the cabin, rattling every single thing in it.
> Pulling his fist away with a smirk Iron Will chuckled.
> "Glad to see you're able to finally give me a bro-fist."
"Yeah, well after the first two times, I decided to pull it all in."
> "Follow me Anon, time for the ritual of completion."
> You trailed behind him as he went on about how proud he was on this day.
> He also threw in about how the Triathlon was literally going to be nothing compared to what you had been through.
> You both lumbered into the middle of the camp, all the goats gathered in a circle around you both.
> You both stop as Iron Will whirled around.
> You stood at attention as he folded his arms behind his back.
> He began to pace back and forth, getting ready to start a speech.
> You've come to love his speeches.
> "Anon! When I first found you, you were a sorry sack of flab. So pudgy and weak I thought there was no way someone like you could ever turn it around and succeed."
> Ouch.
> "But with your determination and will you overcame the obstacle that was your pathetic body."
> Double ouch.
> "You have proven to me time and time again that despite what you think, coal could actually become a diamond."
> He turned to one of the goats and grabbed something away from him.
> "Anon, I present to you... your Iron Camp medallion."
> He pulled up a golden medallion embroidered with you and him back to back.
> With a smile he slid it around you neck.
> It would've been heavy for you three months ago maybe.
> But you might as well not be human anymore...
"Will, thank you so much for everything."
> Iron Will smiled proudly.
> "You're like the son I wish I could have Anon."
"I know."
> It seemed fitting.
> "Now hike on outta here and sprint home this time. You've got some flab sacks to show up."
> You pause.
"You're not coming with? Not even to watch me sign up?"
> Iron Will shook his head slowly.
> "I'm afraid I cannot Anon, I'm still on bad terms with the elements and their fru, fru princess."
> You could've hissed upon hearing that.
"But... you helped me."
> Iron Will placed a hand on your beefy shoulder.
> "And now it's time to help yourself Anon..."
> You drop the sad attitude and give a stoic nod.
> He just nods back.
"Thank you for everything sir."
> "Thank you Anon, Maybe I CAN succeed if someone like you can."
"Hey!"
> You both shared a laugh, enjoying your final moments with him.
>"Show them what you got Anon!"
> With another nod you head off, starting with a light jog down the road leading to the camp
> Turning back you saw Will waving sadly.
> "Oh don't worry darling, everything will be more than alright!"
> You were Rainbow Dash.
> And you had managed to convince one of your friends to come along with you to sign up.
> The rest were busy prepping to help with the upcoming Triathlon.
> Rarity trotted along with you, pep-talking you as you two trotted towards the sign-up area.
> You weren't this nervous the last time you signed up.
> Actually the last time you signed up, you were feeling so good that you had played that prank on Anon.
> And well... now you guys weren't sure where he was.
> It was his fault for being such a coward in the first place!
> Rarity started to ramble on about a new fashion line she was working on for the upcoming Triathlon, some sort of 'sexy and mysterious sports wear' or something along the lines of that.
> You on the other hoof could not give a hoot.
> By the time you were in view of the sign-up center your were so jumpy anything could set you off.
> "Rainbow, my darling you seem kind of... nervous."
"Iamnotnervous!"
> You relax with a sigh.
"I don't know why but I'm having doubts about this whole thing..."
> Rarity smiled softly and clicked her tongue.
>"Oh Rainbow, really think about the things you've done. You think a triathlon is anything compared to the stuff we've done?"
> You perked up.
> She was right.
> You had fought dragons, mad gods, and even more.
> Tartarus you've even fought demons before.
> There was nothing that could... what was that?
> Everybody else lining up seemed to notice it as well.
> A green spec on the horizon, it seemed to be sprinting towards the sign-up station.
> You didn't know cheetahs lived this far out....
> Wait a minute that was definitely not a cheetah...
> It was way too big to be a cheetah and whatever it was it was stacked with muscle.
> It kind of reminded you of...
> You skid to a stop as you got close enough to the gathering line in front of the station.
> Whoopsies, didn't mean too kick up that much dirt.
> Thunderlane spit the dirt out of his face and glared at you.
> He then realized who you were and his jaw seemed to let gravity do the work.
> You stared apathetically down at him as you rose to your full height.
> Before when you were 298 he had been on of the ponies to give you the most shit out of the others.
> Now that you weighed in at 298 pounds of muscle he seemed to be in shock.
> Plus you didn't have that damn slouched posture anymore, which made you seem way taller than before.
>"What the buck is your problem!?"
> You slowly cock your head to the source of the voice.
"Rainbow Dash..."
> Your voice wasn't that deep before...
> "Yeah, the element of loyalty and the mare that's going to kick your flank if you don't move out of her way!"
" You really don't recognize me don't you?"
> So what you're another human, doesn't give you...the...right..."
> It was setting in.
> "Too..."
> Rarity had already realized, just silently watching you from the back.
> "Butt.... in... A-anon...."
"Mhm..."
> "I-I-Hubba wha-"
> You grab the top of her cranium and place her back in her spot in the line.
> You lumbered to the end of the line and got ready to wait respectfully for your turn.
> The stallion in front of you kept glancing back and forth between you.
> When you stared down at him he simply went rigid, staring forward.
> "I'm so sorry for all the things I've said..." he squeaked out.
"I don't care." you simply grunt looking back up at the line.
> You don't care at all.
> Up ahead you could see Rainbow Dash nervously glancing back over her withers.
> Rarity was doing the same.
> They were acting like you were a ticking time bomb.
> You look down at yourself and chuckle.
> I'm a nice guy I swear...
> You need to learn the right time to be sarcastic.
> You thought about what to do when you got back home.
> You were headed there right now, having already signed up.
> Rarity and Rainbow hadn't even said anything to you, they just had Rainbow sign up and they both galloped out.
> First you would have to tidy up, whatever had gotten in during your stay at the camp might still be there.
> Then you would have to buy some scented candles and food.
> Well food and some ingredients to make that grey goop, Will had shown you the recipe.
> Some kind of blue flower, mixed with a red fern and some yellow straw looking thing.
> Thrown in with some boiling water of course.
> Neither of you knew the names, just what the things looked like.
> You reach your door and go to unlock it.
> Oh shit you lost your keys a week into the camp...
> You turn the locked knob effortlessly and lumber in, opting to fix the door later.
> Looks like your place was ransacked while you were gone...
> You sigh, already annoyed by the turn of the events.
> Maybe you could go for a stroll around the town.
> Throwing on a white t-shirt over your shorts you step out of the house and adjust it.
> So loose.
"I wonder how Derpy's doing..." you mutter stepping off of the porch.
> Just as you took your first step a nearby scream caught you attention.
> Jerking your head to the side you briskly walk to your left.
> You lived on the outskirts of ponyville, namely because it was secluded.
> Another scream, this time more high-pitched.
> That sounded like a kid...
> The second step slaps against the ground as you start running.
>You are Roseluck, the local flower shop owner.
> Well, one of the local flowershop owners.
> All you wanted to do was take your little sister out for a stroll, show her the outskirts of the town and a light view of the everfree.
> Then a bear came rampaging out of the woods, grunting and swinging its claws around in a hectic manner.
> Hopefully you could calm down Little bud with a soothing whisper.
"AAAAAHHHHH!"
> Close enough.
> Your little sister followed suite, screaming almost as loud as you.
> The bear, drawn by the source of sound rushed forward at you, dropping to all fours and charging.
> This was it, time to say good by to the sweet smell of sunflowers and hello to the smell of roses.
> You just wish Little Bud would be okay.
> Just as the bear leapt forward a green and white blur tackled it.
> Whatever it was and the bear flew a good eleven feet in the other direction, tumbling to the ground.
> "Wha-" Little bub tried to peek past you.
> A creature almost as big as the bear slowly rose to his height.
> Before the bear could get up he calmly walked over and pinned it down.
> Impossible....
> That was physically impossible.
> Not even Big Mac could do something like that..
> He reached for one of its paws and pulled out a large splinter, flicking it away in a rather bored manner.
> "Shhh..." he cooed scratching its head.
> The bear seemed to visibly relax, going limp in his grip.
> He stood up and turned back to you.
> That was Anon....
> Ignoring you he nodded at your sister and began to walk off in a slow, strange gait.
> You stood there with your mouth wide open.
>"Who was that?" Little Bud asked staring up at you.
> You just slowly turned to gape at your sister.
"L... Let's pay Twilight a visit..."
> You were ecstatic!
> As you lumbered away from the two mares it took all of your will not to first pump.
> You just took out a bear in three go's.
> GOD YOU FELT GREAT!
> A flyer smacked into your face, causing you to reel back.
> Reaching up and pulling it off you overlook it briefly.
> Another Triathlon flyer....
> Crumbling it up and tossing it behind you, you continue on your way.
> Despite your obvious accomplishment your still had... doubts.
> Like what if some of those ponies cheated?
> Iron Will had taught you to play fair only.
> The thought of them cheating didn't sit right with you, most likely because it would be focused on you.
> That's wasn't good.
> Plus, what if you weren't strong enough...
> You think back to the bear for a brief second.
> What if you weren't conditioned enough?
> You decided to write off the dreary thoughts, deciding it was your cynical nature creeping back up.
> By the time you were done daydreaming you found yourself walking by the apple orchards.
> You could see the Cutie Mark Crusaders, balancing on top of each other for some reason.
> You stopped and watched with interest as they tumbled down, groaning the whole way as they did.
> You had also worked on balance at the camp, Will claiming that a good body deserved someone who could use it.
> You paw the medallion.
> Ponyville seemed so...bland compared to the days you had at Iron Camp, even if it was only you and Will.
> Getting bored watching them you turned around.
> Maybe you could find something to do near the Everfree.
> You didn't feel visiting Derpy or any of the other ponies yet.
> Maybe you could workout a bit...
> You're Twilight and...
> You did not believe a single thing you were hearing.
> You rub the bridge of your muzzle, trying to wrap your head around this.
" Ok so, not only are you telling me that Anon is back, but that he also managed to get in prime of his physical condition in just three months?"
> Rarity stood in front of you, nodding her head eagerly.
> Rainbow Dash was off in the corner, reading a book quietly.
> A cloud of dark aura seemed to hang over her...
"I believe you about Anon coming back, which makes me glad."
> No more work.
"But somepony as logical as I finds your story to be quite... a stretch..."
> You know your friends wouldn't lie to you, but you were still weary of the possibility of a prank imminent.
> You blow air out of your nose.
"Besides, somepony like Anonymous could NOT turn it all around like that in three months. He was so lazy when we first met."
> "But, Twilight. We saw him with our own two eyes. He was a literal hunk of meat."
> You slowly raise an eyebrow.
"Suuure... I guess the next thing you're gonna tell me is that he fought a bear or something."
> The door to your courtroom swung open suddenly, jolting you all up.
> "Anon just fought a bear!" Roseluck shouted.

> You are Anon again.
"One-hundred-fifty."
> You moved up, then down again.
"One-hundred-fifty-one."
> While you mindlessly counted to yourself you thought about what to do.
> Not one pony in this town bothered to ask about you.
> You even thought you would catch wind of the Elements searching for you.
> Nothing, nadda, zip.
> Your pushups started to increase in speed.
> Not even their fru, fru princess even sent out any help for you.
> As you began to convert to the two-hundreds a twig snapping caught your attention.
> You stopped suddenly mid-pushup, freezing in place.
> Whatever it was seemed scared of your presence.
> Which was strange considering you were in the everfree.
> Turning back you could see something sprinting off towards the town.
> You got up and dusted your shorts off, squinting at whatever it was running off.
> It was slower than you...
> You let it run for a bit before taking chase.
> The world turned to a blur as your massive quads propelled your forward with the force of a mini-train.
> You footsteps echoed amongst the ground as you found yourself right behind the blur within a minute.
> It gasped before pumping its legs even faster.
> You could hear Iron Wills laugh in the back of your mind.
> You simply scooped down and picked it up, not really surprised to find out that it was a pony.
> Packing the terrified pony close to your chest, you continue to run, clearing the dirt road to ponyville in very few minutes.
> Now at the outskirts, you cam to an adrupt stop and dropped to pony on its flank.
> Pinkie Pie....
"Pinkie Pie..." you mutter stepping forward.
> The pink pony gulped and folded back her ears, actually showing nervousness for once in her life.
> "I...Huba...Wanted..."
> You wait patiently, placing your hands on your hips.
> Pinkie Pie was one of the Elements that just kinda of left you alone.
> She tried to throw a party but when you went you just ended up being made fun of.
> After that she refused to talk to you or even look at you.
> You asked for the time once and she just flat out told you while looking past you.
> No antics or nothing...
> Oh, she was still sputtering on.
> "A-and den w-we w-e-e-ent.."
> You clamp your hands over her muzzle and leaning forwards, both of your eyes meeting.
"Use your brain blondie."
> You were sure that's what she would be if she weren't pink.
> Pulling your hands away you stared down at her, softening your gaze so she would finally speak.
> Before you even knew what was going on she threw herself at your feet.
> She then began to cry actual waterfalls of tears.
> You just awkwardly rubbed the back of your head.
> That tree was pretty interesting...
> "You were gone for so looong!" She wailed, still keeping a deathgrip on your ankles.
> "I felt so bad when I heard that you ran away, t-then I tried to find you for a bit but I got sidetracked by a whole bunch of harmony stuff! So I accepted your death and moved on! I'M SO SOORRY ANON! I NEVER WANTED TO BE A BULLY TO YOU!"
"SHUT!"
> She did exactly as you commanded, shutting her mouth shut faster than a bear trap.
> You heard death in that mess of words.
> They thought you were dead and didn't give a rats ass...
> You growled, reaching down and prying her off of your ankles.
"I'm going to visit Derpy, do not bother me." your grunted turning away from her.
> Sad blue eyes were right in front of yours.
"What the-"
> "Please Anon...."
"No."
> Turning around again you found yourself face- face with her again.
> "Pwetty please with sprinkles on top~?"
"NO!"
> You pushed her away effortlessly.
> As you took your first step you found it not to be the ground but rather a pink pony under your feet.
> Pwetty please with sprinkles on top and a chocolate shell~?"
> A vein popped, you could feel it...
> Just as you drew in a breath to shout something caught your attention.
> A rock hit your shoulder...
> It didn't hurt physically but...
> Looking up you saw that there was a small mob down, Twilight and Rainbow stood at the front of it.
> Twilight was scolding Rainbow, probably for the rock.
> Taking your foot away from Pinkie she rolled around to see what was happening.
> Overall there were about ten ponies in the mob.
> Twilight stopped scolding Rainbow for her way of getting attention and stepped forward.
> "I really can't believe it..."
"Well believe it, now if you excuse me I got some actual nice ponies to see."
> You took a step forward but the mob mimicked, watching you intently.
> Most of them seemed scared.
"What's the matter?"
> You pinched the bridge of your nose, seeing where this was going.
> After three months with Iron Will you had found your fuse decreasing and your temper rising.
> That mixed with a massive confidence boost would not bode well with anything.
> "Anon-" Twilight started but was interrupted by Rainbow.
> She flew straight up in your face and pushed you.
> Tried actually, it didn't really do much.
>"What's your problem Anon!?"
> What?
"What?"
> "First you come swaggering into our town acting like you owned the place, then you won't even accept poor Pinki-"
> You simply and effortlessly pushed her down.
"Why is the mob here?" You simply ask, having enough of that.
> Twilight seemed baffled.
> "T-They're here to.... help?"
"If I go on a rampage and destroy the town? I'm not some monster, I'm just a guy who bettered himself."
> Some of the stallions in the mod nodded their heads softly.
> "They aren't here to fight you or anything!"
> You cock an eyebrow.
"Than what are they here for?"
> "... A race."
> You found a smile curling at your lips.
"BAHAHAHA! A Race? And you come strolling up like that? What are you guys tryna' do? Get killed or something?"
> They all flinched as you continued to laugh your head off.
> Rainbow Dash who was trapped beneath you, just steamed and fumed as she glared up at you.
"Ok.. I'll race ya' guys. I still got awhile."
> As they began to shuffle away from Twilight you saw some sort of mad glint in her eye.
> There was something more to this than you thought...
> You let Dash go, watching as she fluttered up faster than a moth attracted to light.
"You racing too?"
> She just huffed and shook her head, slowly hovering over to Twilight and plopping down next to her.
> You felt a tug at your shorts.
> Looking down at Pinkie Pie she smiled innocently up at you.
> With a sigh you lumber away, leaving her there with her friends.
> Taking your place next to the ponies as they stretched you scratched your stomach.
> Without even looking back you could tell the three were discussing something and it was definitely about you.
> Looking at your competition you realized that maybe one or two of these ponies actually did any sort of exercise.
> So this wasn't a simple race....
> Peeking out of the corner of your eye you could see Rainbow and Twilight discussing something as Pinkie frowned to herself.
> Something was wrong with this picture.
> Twilight then clopped her hooves twice to get everybody's attention.
> The ponies all listened intently as she yammered on about the rules of the race.
> Basically it was just a dead sprint to the town and back, which was decent considering that you had moved further down the roads now.
> Had to at least be half a mile by now.
"GO!" Twilight shouted.
> Out of the corner of your eye you saw her pull out something.
> As you took off you decided to throw it.
> Acting as if starting the run was immensely hard for you.
> Halfway through the race you began to act winded, none of the ponies the wiser.
> Dash looked like the only one not buying it, probably because she had actually seen you run.
> You let one or two ponies pass before powering through for a short moment.
> Than you would drop it and fall back.
> By the time the race was over you were dead last, coming up in a light jog.
> Twilight looked... disappointed but pleased at the same time.
> She turned and muttered something to dash and they both shared a laugh.
> You would blush if you weren't faking...
> As they trotted up to you, you had to really throw it in now.
> Whatever she had pulled out was gone now, probably hidden somewhere with Pinkie.
> "T-thank you Anon."
> She looked genuinely disappointed but also amused.
> Dash seemed a lot more relaxed, just smiling cockily at you as Twilight droned on about your form and the Triathlon.
> Throughout the whole speech you just huffed and wheezed, wiping the sweat that had formed on your fore-head off repeatedly.
> With a few 'uh-huhs' and faked nervous glances at Dash they had bought the whole thing, trotting away with the ponies that had gathered with them.
> After waiting patiently for the ponies to disappear you straightened up instantly, squinting after Twilight.
> You had no idea where Pinkie had ran off too and you didn't really care.
> She was gone now and that's all that mattered.
> Deciding that now you would pay Derpy a visit you began to stroll towards the town.
> Whatever Twilight was doing what you had done was sure to mess with her.
> They would probably think your all strength now and no lung power.
> That was a lie.
> Will had trained your conditioning to tip-top shape in your training.
> Which made you began to ponder why you were still so cynical about the whole ordeal.
> As you walked into the town some of the ponies turned to you but went back to what they were doing, less threatened than before.
> As you passed Thunderlane sitting on a cloud, he made an over-exaggerated winded face.
> You just ignored him.
> When you reached the door of Derpy's house you knocked slowly.
> Time for the first pleasant chat of the day...
> You are Rainbow Dash and you had no idea what you were so freaked out about.
> All Anon did was get big, he was still the same lazy sack he had always been.
>Probably took steroids or something, he would surely be disqualified when he tried to get in the Triathlon.
> You flew around excitedly in Twi's courtroom, she was bound to show up any second.
> "I'm so gonna win! I have no idea why I was so nervous before! Did you see him? He was all like...."
> You stuck your tongue out and crossed your eyes to mimic Anon poorly.
"Dude looked so dead, and did you see the way he was looking at me? He knows what's going down."
>You did a little jig in the air, making a symphony of 'umphs' and "Oh yeahs."
> Suddenly pink and two blue eyes filled you vision.
> "HIYA RAINBOW!"
"GAH!" You nearly leapt out of your skin.
> "Pinkie don't do that!" you said trying to get your heart-rate to slow.
> "Sorry Rainbow, but it was suuuch a pain to get this developed."
>She pulled out a white folder, and passed it off to Twilight you took them carefully.
> "I felt like a spy!"
> With a salute she pulled a box over her head and scuttled off muttering 'metal gear' over repeatedly.
>Uh-huh...
>Turning to Twilight you nodded at her. >"Despite it not being much, this is a detailed analysis of Anon's physique."
> You reach out and pull out a bunch of pictures and diagrams, all centered around Anonymous.
>You stared at the pictures with a look of uncertainty.
> "Why are you doing this again?" you asked pawing at one of them.
>Twilight frowned.
> "Because if he is using than I need to do something about it Rainbow, I can't in all my royal duties let a drug addict participate in the most prestigious athletic competition in Equestria."
> "Despite his poor endurance he still had to do something to get that big and I don't think it was hard work and dedication."
"You're right Twi, he probably took the lazy boy route like always."
>And he was still cocky enough to go for the Traithlon.
> You tapped your arm patiently as you looked around the room.
> A clock ticked slowly overhead somewhere.
> Each tick felt like a heartbeat.
> You sat in a relatively nicely decorated living room, the colors mixing somewhere between pastel and bland.
> You sat on a thick, recliner. Which was still creaking every time you shifted.
> Sitting across from you staring at you with a large smile on her face was Derpy, she sat on a red and green couch.
> In between the two of you was a coffee table with two mugs of steaming tea.
> Hers was sweetened, yours was black.
> Derpy reach down and took a sip.
> You just scratched your head.
"Sooo. let me get this straight. You did try and actually look for me?"
> Derpy smiled broadly, nodding her head vigorously.
> "We didn't know what to think when you went missing Anon."
> A frown over-fell her face, one of her eyes slowly rolling down to the ground while the other stared at you.
> Absolutely adorable.
> "And then when I heard you showed back up I was glad to hear that."
> Well you would imagine, she probably dealt with the same stuff you did.
> You leaned back in the chair, hearing the springs screaming under your weight.
> "I've gotta say Anon, you look different.... is it the beard?"
> You chuckle softly.
"Yeah it's the beard."
> "I knew it!"
> You laughed heartily, genuinely confusing the mare.
"You were one of the ones I missed. How's the others doing?"
> "Oh Peppermint creams is trying to expand her business."
> You still didn't know what to think of that name.
> "And Cardio Bunny is competing in the Traithlon."
> She seemed to shut her trap, going rigid as she mentioned it.
> She had realized what was going down then...
"I take it you know about Dash and the Triathlon then?"
> She nodded her head slowly, still keeping her mouth locked.
> Probably was trying not to offend you any further.
> With a chuckle you reach forward and bring your tea to your mouth.
"It's good, I'm not mad or anything."
> She visibly relaxed, slouching in her couch.
> " I'm sorry Anon, I just got so worriedandIknewthatDashhadplayedameanprankonyou-"
> You put a finger to your lips.
> She stopped talking instantly.
"You're starting to sound like Pinkie Pie, please don't let there be two of her."
> She nodded as you chuckled.
> The day went on like this, you two just sitting there chatting while time crawled by.
> Turns out she didn't have work today so she was free all day.
> By the end of the day you were leaving with tea in a thermos, a hot bowl of veggie soup, and a platter of blueberry muffins.
> The sun was instantly replaced by the moon, causing you to flinch and nearly drop everything.
"Mkay."
> For some reason you still were not used to that, it got you everytime.
> You began to walk home, deciding to take the longer route for some quality you time.
> One more day technically until the Triathlon.
> Which meant you could probably chill out at home tomorrow. You did need it after working tirelessly for the last three months.
> And talking to Derpy today had been really nice...
>Oh...
> And then there was Twilight and whatever the hell she had been doing earlier.
> She wasn't going to cripple you was she?
> Nah, they don't play like that.
> Something fishy was going on though.
> Maybe you would investigate tomorrow.
> Pinkie was still trying to apologize after all...
