//------------------------------// // Chapter Two: Perception and Reality, one in the same? Only the phsyco tells. // Story: Vault Hunters in.... Equestria? // by EnderKyle //------------------------------// [Two hours after the freak-out about not shooting stuff] Alright, I'm back and ready to read this bullshit! Then I can get payed and go. "Um... Please step in the castle, we can explain where you can live there, there's definitely no room for all of you on Twilight's libibrary" Said Celestia. They walked through the door, and stepped on a trapdoor, that was never there originally there. NO! NO THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!!! I am not doing this bullshit! [Two more hours] Ok, now that I'm strapped in the chair because I'm apparently "Becoming Violent" I was just gonna punch them... "Whats going on?!" Asked a worried Gaige. "Take a fucking guess!" Replied Maya. "Oh um... Ok! We're... Falling through a trapdoor!" Said Gaige, who mistook it for a sincere request Maya just facehooved. It was then when they realised they were ponies and freaked out. "WHY DO I HAVE HOOVES?!?! VOICE DUDE! DO YOU HAVE HOOVES?!" Screamed Krieg. No, I don't have hooves, seriously how can you be this stupid?! Said the voice. "Shut up and calm down! We need to get back up there because we're falling fast, so lets put our heads together and think of something!" Shouted an angry Zer0 "I have a plan! IF you have wings, FLY AND CARRY US UP DUMBASSES!" Shouted Maya Tina, Gaige, and Krieg flew up and carried them all up, while Celestia and Luna used their brains much earlier and flew up. When they got up, they thought about where it came from. "Was that originally there?" Asked Salvador. "No it wasn't that's whats confusing me!" Said Celestia. "Maybe it wasn't there in your reality!" Said a strange voice. It seemed to be coming from every direction so they got in a circle, except Krieg for some odd reason, he was looking in the middle. "What you see is what you get, that's why you see me punching you!" Said the giggling, strange voice Suddenly, a pony that appeared to be half red and half yellow appeared in the middle and went for Maya. He never got the hit as Krieg swung his axe at him, it didn't hurt much though since his axe seemed to turn into a pointy stick. "What happened?!" Asked Maya, who just turned around. "Perception happened, you couldn't perceive me as a threat! You couldn't perceive me at all!" Said a female version of the strange voice, giggling. "And the reality of things is that You couldn't have attacked! Your gun is a water gun! Would that really do much damage miss?" Said a male sounding version. The two- I'm sorry, one ponies- pony, said that perception and realty weren't so different, but Krieg had other ideas. "What you see is NOT what you get! Your insanity will not affect your reality, there cannot be multiple realities!" Said Krieg, it was almost like his sane voice has taken over. "Philosophy must not be your strong point, but there are no answers that are right or wrong are there? In your reality at least." Said the pony, who seemed to be almost getting wider, like he- no she- IT was splitting into two. And it did, two ponies, one a yellow mare, the other a red stallion, both smiling and giggling. Maya, whose gun seemed to be back to normal, attempted to shoot the two. It failed. "Reality doesn't like bullets Maya!" Said the yellow mare. "Neither does perception!" Said the red stallion. "We must escape, they are overpowered, are badasses here?" Asked Zer0 "Just run you fools!" Said Tina, who seemed to be equally scared... Tina couldn't remember feeling anything more painful then that day... He finally got what the two flashed were when they were being tested, when she escaped. The doors seemed to be locked when she ran to the flash, and she would start perceiving things differently. Doors became walls, and walls became doors, she looked crazy, running around like that, but now wasn't the time for remembering painful things... As they ran, they heard the yellow pony scream "Oh, oh, oh, oh, LETS PLAY THE FLOOR IS LAVA!" As they ran, they started seeing the floor, change... To lava... They perceived it as a threat, even though it was just what they saw, and started climbing things as the floor turned normal. "That was fun!" Shouted the red stallion, whose voice seemed to be coming from nowhere. "But what game will we play next?" Asked the yellow pony. They managed to figure these things out -Red stallion= Reality, a pony with the ability to alter reality to an unknown extent -Yellow mare= Perception, who seemed to be able to control their emotions and what they saw. -Krieg had some strange immunity to the effects.
