//------------------------------// // It Begins // Story: The Pink Charge // by huskypup112 //------------------------------// "Argh my back is killing me." One thing I will never get used to about Equestria is their bed sizes I haven't had a good night's sleep since I came here, though that's understandable since I'm much taller than these talking ponies. I did hear a minotaur was in town a while back, if they exists and they are the same minotaurs from my world, then maybe I can find myself a bed more to my size. One thing I must give to Equestria is the amazing scenery, its much more beautiful then back were i came from, but it almost has a cartoony feel to it, everything just seems so bright and colorful and I find myself staring into the distance at times just day dreaming. In the distance I noticed a pink object moving at incredible speeds towards my location, taking note on the way it’s moving it almost looks as if it’s skipping… “Oh god” sweat dripped from my brow as I realized who the pink object was. “Pinkie” I said to myself in an almost panicked voice. Since I came here Pinkie has been nothing but kind to me, but as I soon came to learn these ponies kindness can be quite painful. Amazed at how fast Pinkie was moving I was dumbfounded by just how she could possible be moving at those speeds, and she wasn't slowing down if anything she was speeding up. “Shit she’s gonna ram me!” acting on instinct I turned around ran as fast as I could tripping over my own feet along the way and landing face first into a patch of dirt. Regaining my composure, I got up as quickly as I could and bolted. I cant handle more pony ''affection'' right now I'm bruised enough as it is from the last time Pinkie decided I needed a hug. “Pinkie I'm not in the mood to play right now!” I yell in the hope of slowing pinkies inevitable full speed charge. “You’re not getting out of giving me a hug this time, Anon!” Pinkie yells at an almost inhuman volume. As adorable and lovable these ponies are their hugs can hurt like a bitch and after escaping from Pinkies grip last night I've been avoiding hugs since, trying to recover. “No, please Pinkie I can’t handle another hug so soon” I say almost begging “My body can’t take it!” Its been less then 24 hours since she last tackled me with one of her spine breaking hugs. My experience with hugs and these ponies has not been so great, none of them seem to understand that we humans are not built to handle their raw muscle strength, and i have not the heart to tell them that I can't take their hugs anymore. I run as fast as humanly possible, looking back I see the pink menace that is Pinkie Pie gaining on me. As fear starts to take hold I look for anyway to avoid my fate anything to prolong the inevitable. Spotting the library up ahead I get a not so smart idea to hide inside. As soon as I'm in arms reach of the library door I rip the door open and bolt upstairs. “Shit she’s gonna find me in here.” I look around for anything that might be a good place to hide my hugged out body. “ANON! Where are you?” The pink menace yells from down stairs. “Oh shit she’s already here” "Psst" I look back to see a little purple dragon behind me. "Quick Anon hide under the bed" the dragon motions me towards the bed. Panicking I take a chance and just hide under the bed and beg that she will just leave the library thinking I already left, but knowing pinkie there's a very low chance of that. Hearing hoof steps coming up the steps I silently pray for god to kill me now and get it over with. “Pinkie? What are your doing here?” Spike says sounding surprised "Are you looking for something?". “I'm looking for Anon I saw him run inside the library, Have you seen him Spike?” Hearing that I start to sweat hoping Spike will help me out. “Nope sorry Pinkie, I haven’t seen him, but i can let you know if he comes by” Hearing those words from Spike struck me with a bit of hope that I might just get out of this in one piece. “I’ll let you know if I see him” “Alright then… Cya later spike.” Pinkie said in a slightly sad tone almost making me feel bad, but if it means I get out of getting some bruised ribs it was well worth it. I waited a few minutes till I made sure she left, I poked my head out from under the bed “is she gone?” I asked a slightly startled Dragon after hearing my voice. “Yeah she’s gone, it’s safe to come out.” Spike is one of the few people around here that I can actually not worry about assaulting me with physical attention. “Thanks for covering for me, I just need a bit of a break from the ponies” I'm still healing from the last time I saw them. “No problem man, happy…” Spike trailed off with a fearful look in his eyes. “Are you okay Spike?” He just pointed behind me, his claw shaking ever so slightly. "P-pink" Is all he could manage with fear in his voice. I had a bad feeling about this, from the look on spikes face I feared the worst. My heart was pounding in my chest as I felt a warm breath of air hitting the back of my neck. Shivers ran down my spine as I slowly turned around. “Oh god…” “Hi Anon!” (To be Continued... Maybe...)
