//------------------------------// // From Courageous To Cute // Story: Brother of Day And Night // by Night--Mist //------------------------------// I walk into my barracks after another exhausting day at work with the Navy. "Oh man what a day. So many sailors calling about technical problems on their computers. And all have to say are things like 'Did you turn the computer on? Have you plugged it in? Is their a Cable going from the monitor to the computer tower? Yes that would help.' I swear, it was as if they thought that the computers were magic and all they need to do is press a button. I sometimes wonder what are the schools teaching them outside my homestate today," I say as sit down in my chair at my laptop. I begin to scroll through my messages and then see an email that was labeled Lauren Fausticorn. I see there is an attachment to it, so I run a scan for any viruses or malware in the email with my virus protection system. Everything checks out fine. Had it been in my junk mail, I would have suspected it to be something intended to do my computer harm, so, seeing it was safe, I click it open. The email reads: Attached is a looped animation I think you will enjoy Night Mist. 'Well, if it's enjoyable, I'll be the judge of that,' I think to myself. I then click on the file and then saw something really cute. It's Woona and Tia, the filly forms of Princess Luna and Princess Celestia from the show My Little Pony, and they were spinning on a record player. Whoever this person is who calls themselves Lauren Fausticorn as their username, they knew where to hit my soft spot. As I watch the cute looped animation, I'm not sure why, but I was starting to get dizzy. The last thing I remember is falling backwards, But instead of hitting the hard floor, I feel myself land on something soft.... and furry. I don't really get anytime to see what caught me, as I pass out. "Yes, the cute dizzy spell worked little sis. Good thing you attached that sleep spell with the loop video little sis," Celestia comments as I lay there passed out. "Yeah, by the time he wakes up, he won't even know what hit him," Luna states. "Now girls. That's a little harsh. He's been exhausted by strenuous work in this world's version of our Wonderbolts and Royal guards. Being an IT in the Navy is mentally exhausting for him. The reason I'm doing this for him is because he deserves a long rest from it," Queen Luaren Faust says. "Sorry Mama. We didn't mean for it to sound mean," Luna admits. "I know honey. Now, stand back while I take care of a few things," Lauren instructs. She soon casts a spell that locks away any memory of me being here to anyone. Even all things written by me, or to me, or about me, are hidden. No one even knows I am here right now. She then casts a spell that encircles me, and as I rest from the dizzy spell of cuteness, a light engulfs me. When it dims down, Queen Lauren sets me on her back and opens up a portal of some sort. "Let us go, my little fillies," Lauren commands her daughters. Celestia and Luna race one another through the portal and Lauren trots in after them. I am not sure how long have been out, but as I come to, I hear both grown up and childish feminine voices. They sound so familiar, but I can't place them. As my eyes open, and adjust, I come to see nothing by white fur in front of me I try to stand up, but all of the sudden, it felt as if all my strength had been stripped form me, and all I managed to do, was role over onto my back. When I did, I came face to face with someone I never thought I'd see in my wildest dreams. There, looking down at me, was the face of Lauren Faust, or at least how bronies had depicted her in their art pieces as an alicorn pony. I could only think of two things. One, this was all some random dream, and was a side effect of that little video loop in my email I had read, or Equestria's real and I am really looking at the one who made it all reality. When I tried to adjust myslef, I felt a sharp pain in my back for a moment, and knew this was no dream. "Hello there, my little prince. Glad you finally decided to wake up sweetie," Lauren said. 'Little Prince?' I think. This statement alarms me, and I proceed to look at my self. I yelp in shock. I was no longer human in form. I am looking at fur that was much similar to Princess Luna's when I saw her in the pilot episode ending, and a very distinct piece of padding wrapped around my, well, I guess what is my flank area now. I am able to catch that my tail has grey and white colors mixed with each other like colors of the mist. Nothing like my OC avatar on the FimFiction site. My thoughts of what happened are inturrupted as Lauren says, "I know. You're very shocked at what has happened dear. But understand, I did this for two reasons. One, because you needed a break from your worlds military and the job they assigned you, and two, because I have been able to see your stories on that site you use to make them, and have seen little activity on them. Think of this as a form of punishment, but also a vacation. And don't worry. No one in your world is even are aware of you right now, thanks to a little spell I used. All you need to worry about is playtime, feeding time, bathtime, changes, and last but not least, bed time, my little Prince Night Mist." Lauren then nuzzles me which tickles, then she rolls me back onto my tummy. At least she's keeping my ponysona name with me. This is a lot to take in. She took me from my world and made me her son. This is amazing, strange, mind you, but amazing. As I peak over Lauren's forelegs that encircle me, which are like trying to climb over a log for how small I am, I see something that gives me another shock....... Princess Luna and Princess Celestia are now Woona and Tia. That meant only one thing. All the stuff I saw while being a fan of the show...... hasn't happened yet. But if Queen Lauren Faust is able to see what has been written on the FimFiction site, she must know of the future that awaits her daughters when they are grown up. That makes me wonder if there is more to Queen Lauren bringing me here, and making me her baby son. One thing I am finding strange is that I can't remember anything before starting to watch My Little Pony. Not my family, my friends, I can't even remember when I was enlsited into the Navy. This is all oddly strange. Even my real name seems to elude me. I'm not sure if that is good..... or bad.... or both. But I do wonder if I will lose more memory over time.
