//------------------------------// // Chapter 7: Identity Crisis's // Story: Major Changes // by Chuckboy39 //------------------------------// I was asleep. I was dead asleep. I was in a very peaceful and relaxing slumber when all of a sudden, the morning sun came out so quickly that it caught me off guard. My face was near the window and when the sunlight rays came, illuminating the guest bedroom, I couldn't keep my eyelids' closed for much longer as I arose from my slumber in a very good mood. Ether it was the very fun time I had with Diamond and Silver the other day or I was finally getting use to being an alicorn in this world, I can't explain why. I felt happier than I did back in that big....empty...where did I live again? Oh right, that mansion. I went into the bathroom that was attached to the bedroom and I looked at myself in the mirror. I know it's only been a day since me and Miles got here but I'm starting to get use to this life. Hey, I still get fame just by my appearance like I did back in the human world I guess. It feels as if I belong in this world just as much as I did back in the other world from what I've noticed. Another thing I've picked up is that maybe I was wrong about the benefit of not having any friends. After spending the day with Diamond, Silver and Miles, A thought that friends can benefit you crossed my mind. I didn't think about it too much since I still want to get back....to....the....other world, yeah the human world I think. Anyway, I left the bathroom and the guest bedroom to find that Silver and Diamond were also getting up for the morning. "Good morning everyon-I mean everypony." I said. "Morning everypony. I can't believe this day is finally here!" Diamond said in a very happy voice. "What? What's going on?" I asked. "Oh right, My cutesinioara is today. Speaking of, I know it's short notice but could you and Summit care to...uh...come?" Diamond said in a tone of voice I didn't really hear from her. From what Miles told me about her, she was a bully stereotype but now she was acting friendly towards me since yesterday and even today. It didn't make sense to me yet but I was beginning to worry that something big, something horrible was on the way. Just then, the door to Miles's room opened and Miles came out. "Summit, I think something's...off." I said. "Well what is it?" Miles asked. "Is Diamond suppose to be friendly this season or something?" I asked. "Not until season five." Miles responded. "Well she just asked us to come to her...cutesinoara today and I don't think she would be third friendly without some sort of twist" I said. "It's most likely because the portal was kind enough to give us cutie marks" Miles said. "Well from what you told me about Diamond, that makes sense-." I said. Breakfast is ready." The butler said downstairs before I had a chance to respond. As we were walking downstairs, Miles stopped walking. "Miles? I asked. Within a second, his body started to twitch and a bunch of color's filled his body as he started to turn human and then back into a pony within two seconds of each other. After a few seconds, he stopped glitching and gained control again as he got up on all fours. "I have no idea...what...that...was...but I'm fearing for the worst." Miles said. "Are you-" I said. "I'm fine, let's just have some breakfast." Miles said as the two of us made our way down to the kitchen where Diamond's butler was cooking and flipping some pancakes. "Saved you two seats." Diamond said as we took our seats at the island table. I was still getting use to the code names but I picked it up quickly. After all, I would need to get use to the name for a while. Diamond's butler then passed around a plate that was filled to the brim with pancakes that smelled delicious and had stem rising from them. The four of us each took two of them and began to cut them. "I have to say, these pancakes are splendid." Miles said with his eyes widened. "They are very good, I must say." I said in a calm voice. "Why thank you Ms Bass and Mr Hill." The butler said. After we finished our breakfast, we were decide on what we should do next. "Say, the cutesinoara isn't for a few more hours and you two still don't know Ponyville that well, maybe we should spend some time walking around town?" Sliver suggested. "That's a good idea Sliver." Diamond said. "Only problem is my...you know, alicorn thing." I said with a little embarrassment in my voice. "Why is that such a big deal? Aren't you proud of those wings and horn Melody?" Diamond asked me. "I...Yeah nevermind." I said as the four of us headed out into town. "So just to give you two a tour, over there is Sweet Apple Acres, home of a blank-flank." Diamond said as she pointed to a somewhat far away farm in the distance. "Oh, that's one of you've father's clients right?" Miles said in an excited voice. "Yes, though I'm wondering how you knew that off the top of you've head?" Diamond said. "Lucky guess?" Miles said. "Works for me." Diamond said as she continued to lead on. While she was showing us some other buildings like that boutique that looked like a carousel or something, my body was starting to feel a little weird. It felt like my body was shivering but it was rather good, spring weather outside. As Diamond continued along, this feeling inside of me started to get worse and worse but I still kept it together, at least I thought I could. Just then, we were walking past two fillies and I saw a smirk on Diamond and Silver's face. Miles then whispered into my ear that: "This is where they make a snarky comment to the two fillies over there, best to just walk by." Miles said just as something unexpected happened. So I was told that they usually pick on ponies without a cutie mark right? When the four of us were walking past us, Diamond said: "Ehh, with or without a cutie mark, she can still like, show up to the party." Diamond said. "Besides, the temptation is too big to resist such a cool party anyway, even if she is invited." Sliver said. I didn't get a good look at their faces but the two other fillies who were standing in front of a house were shocked at what Diamond and Silver just said. "Hm, well I guess that's good to hear." One of them said as they continued there conversation. Just then, I fell to the ground as my entire body hurt. I couldn't see myself but I was sure what was happening wasn't going to be pretty. Quite ugly in fact.
