OPEN THE GAME!

>"T -"So Anon? Is this it?"
>You are Anon, sitting with Twilight (now a hummin) sipping some tea at a restaurant after she tried to find her way to your home universe
>And-
"Nope."
>-this isn't Earth
>Well, not YOUR Earth
>T -"Dangit. I was sure this was- never mind. I'm sorry."
"It's fine."
>To be honest, you're kinda glad
>Sure, you're happy to be friends with a bunch of technicolor pones, but it's moreso due to not having to deal with... certain persons
>This Earth wasn't too bad actually
>It's kinda like regular Earth, but with the horse puns and strange names still attached
>Well, there's still a Canterlot
>T -"B-But I tried so hard, and-"
"Stop. It's fine."
>T -"B-"
>You place a finger on her lips to silence her
"You tried your best. It didn't work out. It happens. No need to beat yoursefl up for it."
>The pony-princess turned human lets out a long sigh
>PP -"OH AAAANOOOOON!"
>SWEET BABADOOK
>You jump as a voice screeches into your ear
>You calm your still-beating heart and take a deep breath as you turn to the source of the noise
"Yes, Pinkie?"
>PP -"Weeelllll, Rarity and I were talking about how you can't get many clothes in Equestria, since you're a hummin n' all, so we decided we're gonna help you get some new ones!"
>Rarity walks up from behind, taking your wrists in her hand
>R -"Come now Anon. We shouldn't waste another second. You're in dire need of something fashionable!"
"Oh come on. I mean, I'm glad to get more clothes, but the ones I have are fine."
>R -"This coming from someone who wears basically nothing but white t-shirts and jeans."
"(mumble)Well, excuse me, Hugo Boss."
>R -"What was that?"
"Nothing."
>And thus you were practically lifted from your chair onto your feet by Rarity
>You pull your arm away
"Alright, alright, no need to drag me. Jesus."
>Well, she has a point
>For however simple you keep your wardrobe, she can only supply so much, so this is quite the opportunity

>Ah, today is a beautiful day
>The sun is shining
>The birds are chirping
>Nothing Stand-related has happened in the last week or so
>And you were having drinks and a nice chat with Derpy
>D -"Did you hear about that thing that happened at the abandoned church?"
"No, what happened?"
>D -"Well, from what I hear, there was a scuffle going on inside. People have been saying they saw some 'shadow-people' outside of it. Then, later that night, the inside was lit up."
"You think it might have been Stand Users?"
>D -"It might explain some of the rumors."
>You're glad you don't have to deal with that sort of thing tod-
*BUMP*
>A passing person knocks into you, making you knock your drink over
>As it's about to hit the ground, the person grabs the glass-
>-upside down, making your soda spill onto the ground
>"I am SO sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you!"
>Looking up, you see a creme-colored man with short brown hair, brown eyes, wearing a white tee and jeans
>One who's apologizing profusely to you
>"I-I didn't look where I was going and-and I-I-"
"Calm down. I forgive you."
>He does so, and places the now-empty cup on the table
>"H-here's your... uh, drink."
>"Anon?"
>From a few feet away comes...
>Pinkie?
>From school?
>What was she doing here?
>And behind her are Twilight and Rarity!
>Are they here to spy on you again?
>Is this guy with them?
>You don't remember ever seeing him around at school
>God damnit, you just wanted to have a nice lunch!
>Is that so wrong?

>R -"Anon? What happened?" She asks, as her and the other two join up with her
"Nothing. I accidentally spilt this guys drink and... yeah."
>The guy, adjusting his tie, gets a mean look on his face
>Looking towards his companion, you can see a worried look appear
>And she seems familiar
>Almost too familiar...
>Oh shit
>It's Derpy!
>...Is this the actual EQGVerse?
>You had thought it looked familiar, but everyone didn't have unreasonably-toned skin, or-
>"Stop stalking me."
>>"Care Root-"
>CR -"No, I don't want to join your group or whatever, and I don't care about whatever other groups might be after me. I just want to have a nice lunch with Derpy. Is that too much to ask?!"
>WOAH
>Didn't expect that from this Care Root guy
>D -"Come on Care Root, let's not cause a scene."
>You look towards the accused, your companions, and their shocked faces
>R -"Are you... talking to us?"
>CR -"Yeah. Where's Rainbow Dash, or Applejack, or that pink-haired one? They too busy to spy on me?"
>PP -"Oh, yeah, they were busy. And Fluttershy said, and I quote 'The animals would get lonely if I left.' And Discord said he preferred Equestria to the human world. Also Starlight was stu-"
>CR -"Equestria?"
>PP -"Yeah! That's where we're from!"
>CR -"Bullshit."
"Alright, let's calm down here for a second-"
>CR -"And who are you?"
"Anon. We don't want any trouble, I just happened to bump into you. They-, WE aren't here to stalk you. Hell we don't even know you!"
>CR -"Really now? Then why have I seen those three and their friends folloing me around at school?"
"School? How old are you?"
>T -"I can explain this."
>Twilight steps in front of Ponk and Rares

"So... you're all magical equines... from a world ruled by magical equines... and he's a human that was mysteriously transported there recently... and you're trying to help him get home."
>T -"Yes."
>That sounded like some serious bullshit, but they said it all straight-faced, and seemed quite genuine
"I'll... believe you. For now."
>A -"Well, now that we're all done with that, I believe you, Rarity, were dragging me off to get some new clothes?"
>R -"BUT OF COURSE! Come Anon!"
>A high-pitched whistle pierces the air as Anon lurches back in pain
>As he does, a song starts playing from out of nowhere https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oAUxhHz-LCM
>{"REAPER REAPER, THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE CALL ME, WHY?"}
>Anon pulls whatever caused him pain from his back, a black metal star-looking thing
{"CAUSE THEY AAAAAAALL DIE! WHEN I SING I END THEIR LIVES-"}
"Where's that music coming from?"
>"Sorry, that's me."
>A white mechanical pony with wings appears from nowhere near Pinkie, poking a switch on her side
>A -"GUUUUUUYYYYYYYYSS-"
>What's up with Ano-HOLY SHIT
>Anon's body is being dragged away by his hand from an invisible source!
>Rarity is the quickest to react, grabbing Anon's legs
>Unfortunately, she doesn't seem strong enough, and is being dragged along
>As her friends are about to grab her-
>R -"No need to grab on girls! I'll have him down in no time!"
>How in the hell can she claim that? She's struggling as is.
>As the two of them pass by a lamppost-
>R -"[BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE]!"
>A bunch of metal spider-legs appear from her back and begin wrapping Anon and the lamppost in some sort of cloth
>Before long, Anon's midsection is completely wrapped, and he's stationary
>R -"*Whew* Et voila!"
>Well, you had to admit, you were sort of impressed
>Wait-
"You have a Stand?"
>PP -"Oh, we all have Stands! Except for Twilight."
>R -"Alright Anon, you can let go of whatever you're holding now."
>A -"I-... can't!"
>R -"What?"
>The lamppost groans and bends from the strain of the pull
>A -"It's- stuck- to my-"
>With a final screech and crunch, the lampost goes flying with Anon
>A -"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"
>R -"ANON! Everyone AFTER HIM!"
>But we were having such a nice lunch-
>D -"Come on Care Root!"
>Alright, fine

>FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKWHEREAREYOUGOING?!
>Everything's moving so fast!
>Within a second you hit your head on a wall!
>Doing what you can to keep your eyes open, your surroundings have changed from the open street to a shady alleyway
>Above you, a dark hooded figure sits, scythe in hand, his legs outstretched to keep him from falling
>He retracts his legs, falling and landing with grace
>"You know, I have to admit, I was struggling for a bit there."
>The figure grabs the object stuck on your hand, and it comes off cleanly
>"What IS this stuff?"
>He pulls at the cloth covering you with all his might, to no avail
>"WHOO, I'd need [PHILISTINE] to free you. However, I think you'll be just fine sitting there"
>Your attention turns towards the black star in his hand that brought you here
>"Oh, right, you're probably confused about this. You see, this-"
>He holds up the object
>"-acts kinda like a fishing hook for this."
>He gestures with the scythe
>"It's attracted to organisms, mainly."
>He gets closer
>Creepily closer
>"Especially ones... with lots of BLOOD."
>Wha-
>Oh, he's a vampire
>His fingers jam themselves into your neck
>Oh
>Ooooooooooooh
>Ooooh no
>"DORA!"

>*SLAM*
>The winged mechpony slams the mystery figure into the wall, before delivering a punch rush
>"DORARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARAAAA!"
>One last punch, and his head is stuck in the wall
>As in, actually in the wall
>PP -"Very Naisu, BB!"
>Pinkie high-fives BB before gesturing her hands like an air guitar along with BB, and you could SWEAR you heard a guitar riff from somewhere
>Funnily enough, NOT from BB
>The mystery man pops his head from the wall with a *pop*
>"Y'know, where I come from, assaulting someone when they're eating is considered a dick move."
>PP -"And dragging someone's friend away is considered rude where I'M from you... jerk!"
>"Ah, but I am no mere jerk, or mortal for that matter. I have ascended beyond the bounds of humanity. I have become MORE than man!"
>PP -"Soooo... what are you?"
>"...I'll give you a hint."
>He bares his (unusually large) canines and lets out an eerie "Wryyyyyyyyy..."
>PP -"......I got nothing."
>A -"Oh, for fu- HE'S A VAMPIRE!"
>"DING DING DING! Winner winner-"
>He approaches Anon
>"-Time for dinner."
>Have to do something!
>Damn your inability to let people get hurt!
>Alright, how much energy you got?
>Looking through your life... not much
>An award here, a marriage there
>All of these events are too important!
>That and they barely give any energy
>Noticing the worried look on your face, Derpy wraps you in a big hug
>D -"Don't worry. Everything's gonna be fine, right?"
>And the future brightens
>YES
>A moment catches your eye
>You and Derpy are holding hands in the park in about an hour
>Perfect!
>You absorb that moment, powering up your Stand

>Aaand he's back to draining you
>Ohhh this won't end well
>You're getting... a bit woozy
>*SNAP*
>A bright light floods your eyes, and you have to use your free arm to shield them
>When you drop it, you see Care Root standing right in front of you
>Ohhh don't let this end how you think it'll end
>CR -"You want him, you'll have to go through me!"
>Please have this end like it did with Wind Rider
>A smug grin crosses the vampire's face, and a chuckle escapes his lips
>"...Ok."
>A vertical slice with [PHILISTINE] cleaves easily through Care Root and into your bindings
>"Now then, onto my-"
>A fist of pure light stops him from speaking, driving him into the other wall
>Thanks to the vampire's Stand you free yourself from your bindings
>With a bit of a struggle, you wriggle out of the loose cloth and slowly stand up, making sure to keep a hold on the wall
>With another *pop* the vampire pulls his head from the bricklayers again, now angry and with a sizzling burn mark on his face
>"Y'know, I don't appreciate having my head slammed into the wall!"
>You charge up [SATURN'S CHILDREN] above him
"How 'bout the ground?"
>"Wha-?"
>Before he has a chance to retort, you lower your Stand around him, making him drop straight down into the asphalt and holding him there
>With a groan however, the vampire manages to stand back up, even with the extra gravity pushing him down
>"I would appreciate it if you di-"
>Rarity attempts to silence him by charging him and piercing his now charred face with [BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE]
>He doesn't so much as flinch as he grabs a limb and pulls it out
>"You know, this entire time, I've just been trying to have some dinner. But noooooo, Cobalt Blue doesn't get to have dinner cause he happens to feed on people! Well no more Mr. Nice Vampire!"
>With a single punch, Cobalt flings Rarity into Pinkie, who unsuccessfully tries to stop her with [BALLROOM BLITZ]
>Both of them fly back into Twilight and Derpy knocking them into the street
>Time for a counterattack
>Bringing [SATURN'S CHILDREN] back to you, you look for something to fling at Cobalt
>Rocks? Not powerful enough
>Dumpster? It'll take too long
>Lamppost?
>Oh. No shit.
>With some effort, you pick up the post and hold it above your head, aiming it straight at his torso
>C -"Ohohooooooh, I see what you're doing there."
>Fuck
>He grabs the post, yanking it from your hands with one arm and throwing it to the ground

>C -"Now then-"
>You charge up another hard-light fist with [TIMBUK THREE], ready to surprise Cobalt
>C -"-if you'd just wait here for one second-"
>You shoot the fist out, aiming straight for his head and hoping to smash it in and burn him up
>Cobalt is too fast though, and dodges by jumping up like a cat, planting his legs on each wall so he doesn't fall back down
>You don't have much power left at this point
>C -"Now I'm going to come back down there, and when I do, you're all gettin' it!"
>You look back down at Anon, who makes eye contact with you
>An idea strikes you
>Anon seems to get the same idea
>ACTIVATED DHA
>Cobalt drops down, [PHILISTINE] at the ready
>As the scythe gets close, you dodge, jumping back and readying your Stand
>As Cobalt lands, [SATURN'S CHILDREN] materializes around him and forces him down harder than he can handle
>Cobalt stumbles, now barely standing under all of Anon's power
>You shoot out a pile of hard-light spikes in front of Cobalt
>Anon notices, walks up to Cobalt and kicks both of his legs in, making him fall over into the spikes
>The shrill cry as Cobalt's face and torso burn fills the air
>[SATURN'S CHILDREN] disappears
>You and Anon approach and each put a foot on the back of Cobalt's head
>With a nod to each other, both of you push Cobalt's head farther onto the spike, and the screaming stops
>[DHA: HARD-LIGHT CURB STOMP]
>[COBALT BLUE: RETIRED!]
>You sigh, and the hard-light spikes disappear as well
>Thank god that's over with
>A groan grabs your attention, as Derpy and Anon's friends pick themselves up off the street
"We should probably go help them."
>A -"Yeah, we should."
>You both dart towards the street and help each of the girls up
>R -"How could a single punch like that send us all flying so easily?"
>A -"Well, he was a vampire, so it kinda makes sense."
"I'm just glad he's gone."

LATER THAT DAY

>"Rickyyy!"
>You are Erich Rammstein
>And you are out on a walk with your little sister Angel
>"RICKYYYY!"
>And she just ran up to you, and is currently pulling at your coat
"What's wrong, schwester?"
>"Th-there's a guy in the alley, and he's not moving and-and he's burning-"
>Wait
>BURNING?!
>Fich, you gotta get over there quick
>You follow Angel down the street to the alley she was talking about
>And... there's a guy
>And he's not moving
>But he's not burning either
>Though the smell of burnt flesh does hit your nose
"Stand back Angel."
>She does so, and you lift his head, which is the biggest source of the stench
>And you find a large hole in his forehead, charred all the way in
>Lifting him higher reveals several more holes in his neck and down his chest, each one like someone stuck a lit stake in him
"Was zum Teufel..."
>A passing man in a star-pattern hawaiian shirt reels back in disgust at the sight

>Back home
>In Equestria
>Reading a new book you hadn't read from the castle study
>You kinda miss vidya right now
>Sure they may not be as intellectually stimulating as books, but they're still fun
>And they helped you get past the more troubling parts of your life
>God you miss Morrowind
>*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*
>S -"Anon! Got some mail here for you!"
>Mail?
>Was this one of Pinkie's invitations?
>You open the door and see Spike holding an envelope
>S -"Here you go!"
"Thanks Spike."
>You grab it and head back to your seat, a book on Equestrian history sitting open on the table
>With some effort, you tear open the envelope
>The first thing you see is and acronym, 4 letters in total
>And you have no idea what it stands for
"What's PFOG?"
