- >It has been over four hours since you were enslaved by three fillies who call themselves ‘The Cutie Mark Crusaders and the sun is starting to go down
- >You’ve been stuck sitting around with Applejack all while being forced to oversee any fictitious order that you have given them
- >”Are these enough SNOw berries Anon?”
- >All three are now in front of your each laying down baskets full of pearly white berries
- Uh… yeah that- should be enough?
- >”What do ya use them for?”
- It’sss for a- special potion! Yeah, a potion that I’m going to use this winter.
- >You look down and see a little orange Pegasus is giving you a suspicious look
- I, use it to freeze the lakes... yeah
- >”Is there anything else we cayn do?”
- Nope that’s about it
- >Simultaneously all three fillies look back at their flanks and give an immediate look of disappointment
- >”Are you sure there ain’t nothing else we can do?”
- >The look Applebloom is giving you would tear any mans heart into shreds
- >But not you, not after all the looks they’ve been giving you all day
- Hey, listen how about you three go help Rarity with her hangover.
- >Their faces turn from disappointment to excitement
- >Both you and Applejack slip away as the three of them begin to excitedly chatter.
- ---------
- >Now you and Applejack are making your way back into town to go get shitfaced.
- >She is anyway.
- >The sun is now gone down in its horrifically fast fashion, you feel sort of sorry how no one can enjoy a good sunset around here.
- >The lights in the shop windows have already gone on, and few ponies have come outside to light the street lamps outside their homes
- So where’s the best bar around here
- >”It’s called the Bucking Bull, we best get there before the rush”
- Well you lead the way, I still don't know where anything is.
- >You give Applejack a grin
- >”Looks like am gonna have ta show you around some more”
- >AJ gives you a jab in the ribs as she says this
- >No...
- >As expected your head starts to hurt which is accompanied by a loud screeching
- >You start to lose your balance as you bring your hand to your head
- >”You alright there partner?”
- >The screeching begins to subside but you start to feel your legs buckle
- Uh, AJ I- I think I’m just going to call it a night
- >”What? How come?”
- >You try and give Applejack a reassuring grin
- Just, a, headache, happens whenever I’m tired
- >The look of disappointment she gives you rips your heart to shreds
- How about- You buy a drink on me.
- >You reach into your pockets and pull out a back full of fifty or so bit
- >”Aw Anon you don’t have ta do that for me”
- >She brings her hoof up and pushes the bag away, bushing your finger in the process
- >this turn the screeching up again
- Please just- take the bits
- >”Naw ah don’t think I’ll go drinking tonight if you ain’t gonna come. We’ll jus go back an you can stay with me tonight.”
- >You grit your teeth to where it feels like your jaw bone is going to crack
- I’ll just- stay- with Florin. He- uh, has a place in the Everfree.
- >”We’ll Alright, good thing it’s the night before the-
- >You quickly disappear before she can finish
- >Just got to find some place quite
- >All these headaches...
- >’Boy! You drink vodka, it help head hurting’
- >’Okay papa.’
- >Ah drinking cheap vodka at five years of age good times...
- If there was anytime I needed you papa... It's now...
- >The screeching is now completely gone but your head still feels like a railroad spike is being driven through it
- >Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to slip into Raritys place and maybe grab some more of the Jewel
- >At that very moment your thoughts are interrupted
- >You don’t feel it but you heard it
- >The sound of someone screaming as it plummets to the ground
- >SHIT!
- >You hold your arms out to the ground creating an enormous pile of snow, hoping that it will cushion the Pegasus’s fall
- >It lands with an audible poof
- >Your heart is still pounding out of your chest from the anxiety of what’s going on
- >You quickly melt the snow and materialize back on the ground
- >Oh god It’s... That- Rainbow mare.
- >You kneel down next to her to see if she’s, well... dead
- >She’s still breathing which is good, you guess, but her pulse feels a little high
- >”oooh buck...”
- >She’s still conscious even better
- >You hold out your hand to try and shake her awake
- >Touching the tips of your finger to her shoulder sends a pain down your spine
- >Your body turns to snow and you bones to ice
- >Your spine and your ribs begin to condense, your skull starts to elongate, and the bones in your arms crack and fuse together.
- >From your skin feather and fur starts to grow and your teeth disappear and finally the pain stops
- >What the?
- >Looking at your hands you see instead… Talon’s?
- >”Oh... buck...”
- Hey you alright?
- >You’re voice… did you turn into a chick?
- >”Gilda...?”
- >Who the is Gilda?
- >"What happened?"
- Yeah.. Dash, I- you were falling so I tried to catch you but you were falling too fast.
- >Dash sits up slightly and rubs her head
- >Poor girl looks like she’s just been hit by a train
- Ya’ll right?
- >”Yeah. I think I’ll be fine”
- >You breathe a sigh of relief
- >For second you though you would have to cart her into the hospital
- >”Hey Gilda…”
- Yeah?
- >”You think you can fly me home?”
- >SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!
- >How the fuck do you fly? You've always just floated in the wind.
- >Dude you’re going to blow your cover if you refuse
- >Why do you care about this again?
- >You’re practically nobility, you need to help people
- Eh, yeah…
- >You awkwardly startle Rainbow Dash and wrap your limbs around her.
- >Okay now just... woah...
- >Immediately after you begin to flap your wings you rise slightly off the ground
- >”You okay Gilda?”
- Yeah...
- >Now flapping your wings more quickly you get off the ground
- >You climb higher and higher until the houses and shops bellow look like a little toy village
- >So… how do you go forward?
- >Maybe if you just… Holy shat!!
- >With you winds beating vigorously you are sent shooting straight forward
- >Your heart feels like it’s going to explode as the wind rushes past you coupled with the sensation of having the moisture of the clouds rush through your feathers
- >You close your eyes while holding on to Rainbow Dash
- >”Uhh Gilda?”
- Yeeesh?
- >”We just passed Cloudsdale.”
- Oh!
- >Making an almost 360 degree turn you head fly over the little town made of clouds
- >Okay now you just need to land…. Alright then….
- >With your heart still beating like mad you begin to slow down and hover a street in the middle of town
- >Okay now just…
- >Rainbow Dash immediately wiggles her way free from your grasp
- >Stretching like a cat she lets out a long sigh
- >”Thanks for the ride”
- ...Sure.
- >”You wanna, go have some cider at-”
- Don’t you think you’ve drank enough tonight?
- >”Pfff, since when did you become such a kill joy?”
- Whatever
- >You slowly fly next to Dash as you follow her back to wherever she lives. Strangely enough she’s quiet the whole time
- Something buggin you?
- >”What? Oh naw, just thinking.”
- Dash I know something’s wrong
- >She shoots you a slightly irritated look but give another sigh before replying
- >”It’s just… I don’t know, I’m having trouble with my friends back at Ponyville.
- Yeah, like what?
- >”Well… there’s this stallion… and he’s well not a pony, or a gryphon, he’s this weird… monkey thing, and… Ever since he showed up, he’s all everypony ever talks about.”
- I ain’t tracking
- >”I’m saying everypony is ignoring me and keeps talking about that bucking monkey creature.”
- Oh?
- >”Yeah…”
- Like, what do you mean?
- >”I mean like this”
- >Rainbow Dash then starts doing over exaggerated impersinations of everyone
- >”Ya think Anon will posponee winer so ah cayn hayv a lil more taim for harvestin? Oh he’s SIMPLY a gentlecolt of the highest esteem darling! I think angel really likes him. Dash I need to divide the hypotnoose of his giant head so I can estmate the size of his whatever.”
- >Dash pauses
- >”UGH!! It just never ends”
- >You laugh half-heartedly at Dash’s impersonations but you feel your stomach drop slightly as her tone loses its energy
- >”I… Just feel like, I’ve drifted so far away from them…”
- >But her she goes from sad to angry like a mental patient
- >”It’s all that stupid jerk Anons fault… I swear I’ll knock his bucking teeth out if I see him again…”
- >Bitch please
- >Dash continues on her rant about you all the way back to her place
- >All the while you leave bits of ice behind you that fall to the ground likely causing a giant hazard for everyone on the ground
- >Her anger has consisted of jealousy, loneliness and booze
- >Finally you both reach her home
- >It’s made of clouds and you don’t even want to know how she can tell the place apart
- >Dash gives one exasperated sigh
- >”I’m glad I still have you Gilda… I’m glad Anon hasn’t taken you… So uh… See you at the Summer Sun celebration tomorrow? “
- Uh yeah…
- >She turns around and begins to turn the door knob before you stop her
- Hey Dash.
- >”Yeah?...”
- I need to give you something
- >She turns around with and encouraged look on her face
- >”What!?”
- Cover your eyes
- >Okay now to…
- >With a single though your body begins to reverts back to its original state
- > Bones crack, muscles stretch, feathers and fur fall from your body.
- > You’re you again, except nude not to mention you can’t walk on clouds
- >Instinctively you turn your feet to water vapor, binding yourself to the clouds
- >You grab a few clouds and make yourself decent.
- Okay Dash you can look now…
- >She opens her eyes on command and is in complete shock when she sees you
- >You kneel down and put your hand her shoulder, giving her a warm smile
- Rainbow Dash... I’m so sorry that I made you feel so distant from your friends... I don’t want you to feel so lonely and I know your friends don’t want you to feel alone either. I wish we could have had more time to get to know each other.
- >You pause and put your arms around her
- Please, just forgive me...
- >You pull back and look into her eyes
- >You can see tears begin to well up in those big scarlet eyes of hers
- >She takes your arms off her shoulders and opens the door to her home and softly shuts the door behind her
- >You sigh
- >Maybe you shouldn’t go to the summer sun celebration…wait…
- >Oh god!
- >The banquet is tomorrow!!
- >Shit, shit shit!! Your clothes are at Twilights house!!
- >Looks like you’re going to have to face Twilight…
- >No
- >You fall back into the clouds and turn to ice freeing your ghost from your body
- >This isn’t going to be fun
- ----------
- >You’ve left your body in the clouds
- >Now it’s just your ghost quickly floating through town, going through walls and houses
- >Catching sight of the occasional pony up late doing whatever
- >After this row of shops you should be there
- >You swiftly pass through what looked like a flower shop. After seeing some… things, you thought it best to just go through the ground floors
- >Now in front of you is Twilights library
- >All the lights are off except the faint flicker of a candle in the window beside the door.
- >Okay, all you have to do is figure out a way to get your clothes out of her house without her seeing you
- >Slowly you edge through the wall
- >So far so good, you can see you suit folded on the end table by the couch
- >You silently glide along the floor toward the end table
- >You reach down to grab it
- >But of course your hand goes right through the end table
- >Shit,now what are you going to do
- >You stand noiselessly tapping your foot trying to figure this out
- >Lightbulb
- >Holding your right hand out moisture in the air begins to condense around your hand
- >The temperature begins to drop until the water is sufficiently frozen
- >Now with a jointless frozen hand you carefully reach over and take it in your grasp
- >Holding the folded suit like a tray you slowly turn to face the door
- >”mmmhm…”
- >Oh god
- >”S-Spike?...”
- >You quickly turn your head to your right and see Twilight lying on the couch
- >Her eyes begin to crack open which makes you hit the ground dropping the suit on the floor
- >”Hello?”
- >Silence
- >She can’t see you, but the sight of a floating suit would have not ended well for you
- >Twilight sniffles before lying back down
- >You wait several minutes before you’re sure she’s asleep
- >Lucky for you your ice hand is completely intact
- >Standing up you walk over to Twilight
- >Her eyes look swollen and red and there are tear streaks going down her face
- >Your stomach completely drops
- >She’s been crying all night... Because of you...
- >Gently you run the back of your hand across her cheek, pulling her tears from it
- >She shivers slightly at your cold touch
- >On the tip of your finger is a single frozen tear drop, which falls to the ground silently shattering
- > You've gotten so many headaches today that you've, for the most part gotten used to it
- >A small candle on an end table casts a warm light on her while simply passing through you
- >The flickering light of the candle almost makes the shadows around her dance
- >’Leave now, to Canterlot’
- > You silently grab your suit but before leaving you walk over to the table where your suit once was
- > From your palm vapors gently swirl into a tall crystal glass
- > At the bottom of it springs a clear thorny stem and from the tips of your fingers you form petals all around the stem
- >Now stepping back you glance at Twilight and then to your creation
- >Vapors waft from the clear glass rose
- >Without pause you form another gauntlet in your left hand
- >Quickly you turn the knob and glide into the night
