//------------------------------// // Well... I regret what I did. // Story: From Human to...Rabbit? // by ThegoCarter110 //------------------------------// I ran for about 5 minutes before I slowed down to a walking speed, giving me time to think back to whats been happening since I got here. One of the bigger questions I had was. 'Where did that lightning bolt come from?' In the area I was falling, no clouds where anywhere near me, or at least that's what I thought. I was thinking for a long time but the only answer I could come up with is that 'somepony is helping me.' Of course WHO the pony was, your guess was as good as mine. But instead of straining myself on this topic, I continue to walk along a path that I can only assume will lead to Ponyville. After another good 10 minutes of walking I impulsively reach for my phone only to realize my pockets were empty. Sighing in boredom, I start to take in the area around me while humming a song I like. Over all, nothing interesting around, but Ponyville was getting closer and I could start to see the... Ponyvilians? Ponights?... I could see the civilians walking around and could start to see them in detail. The one I could see the best was Pinkie Pie. I say she is Pinkie Pie because. 1. I could see she was not moving her legs in a walking motion because she is clearly bouncing. 2. There where a bunch of ponys following her... Most likely she was singing. And 3... She was the brightest pink color I could see. I couldn't help but smile at seeing a pony I knew by heart. I have to be honest here when I say, Pinkie Pie might be my favorite pony. Of coarse me saying that doesn't mean I dislike any of the rest but, you know what I'm getting at. Not gonna lie though, seeing guards everywhere was kind of a odd sight. After all, Ponyville is a small, quiet town... Even though something weird happens their every episode. And because it was a small and quiet town, the pony civilians might quickly recognize who I am. I'm a guy who makes quick choices and sticks with them... But my half-assed plan was looking worse and worse, and I already knew the plan was bad from the start. But all I could do was keep walking and hopefully sneak in town. Something I wasn't expecting though was a family camping by the road near me. I dove straight into a nearby bush while thinking, "HOW THE HELL DID I NOT SEE THEM!?" When I was taking a closer look I saw a stallion thats a earth pony with a brown coat and mustache with bed head, he also had a cutie mark with a paint brush on it. I also saw a unicorn mare with a white coat and red mane that seemed well kept, she had a mop for a cutie mark. And last but not least, I saw a little earth pony filly with a white coat and red mane, but had a blue hat on her head that was probably ment to hide her clearly messy hair. She obviously had no cutie mark. "So are we going to go to the Everfree Forest tomorrow dad?" The little filly asked with excitement in her voice. "Yes sweetie, we will go tomorrow after we get some supplies at Ponyville." The father said with a smile. "I hope we can see a manticore up close like Daring Do! That would be so cool!" "Heh for our sake, I hope we don't" The mother said with a mix of playfulness and concern. "Oh don't worry, if he attacks us I'll protect you!" The stallion said with pride. "Yeah, like how you protected her from the evil bird earlier?" I soon started to get bored and decided to sneak around them. Why they where camping in the Everfree Forest with a little kid was beyond me. But focusing on the task ahead was my main goal, and I couldn't do that when im sitting around doing nothing. So with that remark I started walking again toward Ponyville, which by the way, was really close now. After another 10 minutes, I was starting to approach Ponyville but I instinctively reached in my pocket for my phone yet again, but was quickly disappointed with the straight fact that it wasn't there, and it won't ever be while im in Equestria... "Dang,I could really use some good music right about now." I said outloud somewhat bummed. But it wasn't all bad, no one will call me when im sneaking around. Which was something I would need to do right about now now... I quickly ran in between buildings trying to get around both ponys and guards. 'I needed a somthing to hide in.' I thought. Taking a quick peek around the back of the house to make sure nopony was looking, I ran across the street to the next alley. I started getting closer to the shopping district quickly, and it was getting obvious to, There where a lot more civilians and guards around. "I could really use a box right about now." I said to myself. The request wasn't to much to ask for though because I saw a empty one... Right by the stands... There was no easy way I could get it while they were there. The only time they leave there stands is when they go home or when they... Sing a... Song... 'I think my brain just processed a great idea!' Now as a rabbit my voice was slightly higher pitch, but still clearly sounded like a guy. So sounding like Pinkie wasn't going to be that hard... Well, thats what I was thinking at least. Taking cover behind a trash can I quietly started to practice singing. "My name is Pinkie Pie, and I am here to sAY-" My high voice gave a quick squeak like I was in the rougher part of puberty. "Ok, I wasn't a good singer back then, and I'm still a bad singer now... It was worth a try I guess." The familiar pink pony then walked by the ally saying. "Did I just hear my song? Or is my Pinkie Sense doing something new?" I was in a bad position right now, but if I could just use my brain to figure out a plan to get Pinkie to sing another song, then this could turn around in my favor! "Hello, is any pony back here!!! Oh are you new?" I could hear her start to approach the trash can I was hiding behind. "Uhh yeah... I'm new... Could you do that singing thing again? I missed it the first time!" I say trying to disguise my voice... Even though I'm sure she never heard it before anyway. "Oh sure! But where are you?" She was getting even closer my hiding spot... I was gonna be found out! "Uhh, that's a surprise... If you sing a good song out there... I'll come out..." I was quietly positioning myself so I could sprint off. "Ooo~ a surprise! I can sing a good song!" She then ran off to singing a song I haven't even heard before, something about a "party just for me" or something. It didn't take long for the ponies to join Pinkie as she marched off singing a catchy song with the town residents, leaving me to take a sigh of relief and a free box for me to grab! After running out there to grab it, I start to run back to the alley way. But as I'm running, something catches my eye. Of course I saw my wanted poster but I noticed another type of poster. Come See The Amazing DJ-PON3 Play Live In Front Of The Town Hall Of Ponyville Next Sunday Starting At 9:00-1:00 Be There Or be Square! "Be there or be square?" I said somewhat unimpressed. "That as simple of a slogan you can get!" "Still... It still sounds kinda cool, I just need to figure out what day it is so I can crash it" I said with a mischievous grin forming on my face. Crashing a party while singing that song about Trogdor that Strong Bad came up with sounded like fun. "Halt you long ear'd fiend!" A guard pony yelled at me. "Will you JUST give me a break!" I complain. But the guard was not going to hesitate to grab me so I ditched the box and start to run down the street. Running down a street was not a wise choice when it came to Ponyville. After all, there was a guard around every corner. How ever the chase got alot harder when I saw a rainbow streak fly through the sky towards me. "Right... Kinda forgot about this small problem..." I said a little more worried now. The way she is flying though is like she is gonna try to crash right into me. So if I'm right, I'll need to time this just right. Rainbow Dash was flying right at me with me running towards her is like playing a game of chicken... Well... Except I know she won't stop. So when it came to the last seconds I jumped for all its worth... And she was able to change her flight course just enough to still get me... As she was flying we both were going through town at highspeeds until we crashed into a building. I was barely still awake from that hit, but I could tell Rainbow Dash was still (for the most part) fine. "Ha, if you think you can escape from the one and only, Rainbow dash then you are out of luck pal." I was considering trying to get up to fight her, but I didn't think it would make anything better. After all, hitting and running away from my problems didn't make them any better in the past. So I chose to just lay there and just give up. So after I heard a voice saying "Rainbow Dash what was that all about!?" "I caught the rabbit thing Twilight!" Rainbow said still full of energy. "W-wait, THATS him?" "Yes Princess." A guard who was chasing me a second ago said. "I am 100% sure that THAT thing is the outlaw." "Well if this is true, Rainbow Dash go get Applejack and Fluttershy." "Anything you request of me to do Princess?" The guard asks. "Yes if you could stay here while I go and get more friends that would be helpful." "Yes Princess. Oh might I ask why you are doing this? I could just take him to Canterlot and be done with him." "There are important questions I need to ask him... Thats all I should need to tell you." The pony that was obviously Twilight said with authority in her voice. "Of course Princess." The guard started to talk a little more with a buddy that shows up at some point but I started to fall asleep from the wait. "... Ah.... So we finally can speak to each other... Hello, im your savior..." The voice says calmly. "Savior? Savior from what?" I ask in confusion. "Isn't it obvious? I'm your savior from you stupid decisions. Like jumping off of a cliff or making it so the animals dont eat you!" "...Oh that..." I said realizing what he ment. "Yes 'That.'" He said mocking me now. "Now if it wasn't obvious enough, you have been causing ALOT of chaos, and trust me, thats a good thing." This was something I didn't quite get. "Now why is causing chaos a good thing?" The voice paused before saying. "I'll have to tell you more next time..." Was the last thing I heard before he faded away. Waking up, The first thing I can see when is five faces that I loved and was frightened by at the same time. The next thing I noticed was that I was in Twilights Library... Tied to a chair... Go figure... "Ah, I see he is awake. Now let me introduce my self. I am Twilight Sparkl-" "Um sorry for being rude now darling but, you really should introduce yourself as PRINCESS Twilight Sparkle now. I mean it only makes sense that he should know you as royalty, don't you think?" Rarity said trying to help with Twilights intro. "I guess, but I dont know if it really matters... I mean he's not even a pony for Celestias sake!" "Well what ever the crit'r is, its still a outlaw to all of Equestria and we need to turn it in!" Applejack said clearly not happy about me being here. "Yeah! Applejacks right! That thing could out run the royal guards! It has to be put behind bars!" Rainbow said. "Well whatever it is, I'm sure he would be fun to work with!" Pinkie said not caring about how serious this really is. It didn't take a genius to know that this was gonna be a LONG night.... Suddenly a clash of thunder was made outside making me almost jump out of my skin. Rain soon started to hit the windows of the tree house. It was obvious that this won't end good for me no matter what I say. So I chose to make a game of this situation. While at the same time, find a way to escape. Looking out the window again I saw the rain was starting to pour onto the streets of Ponyville 'Well... Looks like I'm gonna have to get wet...
