//------------------------------// // Three months after it began... // Story: How my life changed when I became Vinyl Scratch // by Vinyl-ScratchDJ17 //------------------------------// Hey, I'm Seth. Seth Rogan. Well not the Seth Rogan, but my parents just decided to name me after him in hopes that I may grow to lead a successful, just like him, but that hasn't happened yet, nor will it ever happen. I'm just one of your typical sixteen year old closet bronies, that I only tell my secret to others who may be bronies, and or pegasisters of the show: "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." I'm not an obsessed brony or anything, I just happen to like the show, and I have made a few oc's, and thought of making a first fanfiction, but that was until...it...happened. I was just casually watching the news with my old man, when they...appeared. It was part of a breaking news coverage thing, and up on a podium, were two alicorns, in all their beauty. Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. Seeing them up on the podium was just mind wracking, and when Celestia begun to speak, it just blew me away. Luna never spoke, but still. My dad looked at me with much confusion in his eyes, as I did. He turned his head back to the screen, and fumbled the remote in his hands as if he were going to change the channel, but with being so shocked he couldn't work his fingers right and gave up, as we listened to Celestia speak. She was talking about how she was really Lauren Faust, who had turned into Princess Celestia, and how Luna was the same thing, but it was Tara strong who had become Luna, but why Luna? Ah forget it, it's just all too confusing. Any way she went on about how everyday, more and more people would be affected by this, and that she wanted and Elements of harmony to travel to New York to fight off Discord who they believe is responsible for this mess. Eventually she ended by saying "No further comment." As she and Tara walk off the podium, heads hung low. Once again, dad looks to me like what dafuq? He isn't a brony. He knows what My Little Pony is, and he hates it. Just the name itself he hates. He takes a deep breath, and finally gains control of his actions, and turns off the T.V, after running his fingers over the buttons on the remote, in search of the power button. The television set makes a clicking sound, as it shuts down. He gets up from his chair, and stretches, and let's out a big yawn, due to the time being 11:45 pm. He usually crashes for the night at around nine or eight. ME on the other hand, I stay awake till I can't keep my eyes open anymore. He stops stretching and speaks. "Yeah, like that'll ever happen!" He says, going off to his room, to get some shuteye, but to only find that the nest day, There was somebody who had been turned into SpitFire. It just so happens I found out that it was my friend Kayden Heart. He was usually a strong person, when it comes to witts, but not strengths. So he had a hard time since he was the one of the first to be changed. So obviously, I was the true friend I am, and tried my best to support him, who is now a her. He was flipping out when I first tried to talk to him, so I delivered a good slap to his face, and hugged him/her. It felt really, really weird though. But yeah you get the gist. People are turning into ponies, and nobody knows who is next in line. About three months later I thought it wouldn't happen to me, but that's when it did. I became the first in my family to be turned into a pony. Lucky me. It was just another day at school when it had happened. I had gotten used to other kids being turned into ponies, and still coming to school. They had gotten picked on and whatnot, so I tried a little bit to help. Anyway, it was passing time to 5th hour. Lunch had just ended. I had to use the bathroom, so I went and stuff. After I was done with my business, I put in my earbuds, and turned on my phone. I went to my youtube page, and I put on a Vinyl Scratch playlist, when I began to feel dizzy, as I headed away from the stall I had used. Right then and there, I had passed out, with another guy in the bathroom. Not the best time, and place for it to happen either. I was nudged awake by a foot to my shoulder. I opened my eyes to see some dude kicking me. I groan, a bit, as I sat up. I rubbed my eyes with my hands, well at least I thought they were hands. To my surprise, when I didn't feel fingers, I was about to flip like Kayden, but then i had remembered the whole situation of people turning into ponies. I was very unprepared for this still, but knowing it was gonna happen sooner or later. I sit there silently, staring at myself, and taking note of any detail I could find. I was a pure white color, I had a musical-like symbol for a cutie mark, and a tail with two different hues of blue. Then I look up to the boy who woke me up. He is wearing a blue hoodie, with a bvb symbol on it. Why isn't the hoodie black then? But the color of clothing is the least of my worries. He has short blonde hair, and is wearing glasses. He just stares down on me, as if he has no idea what to say. I attempt to get up, but only to fail, and fall on my face. Whoever's face this is. "Ow!" I pout, rubbing my muzzle with my hooves, and returning to sitting up. But that's not my voice! Eh well can't expect it to be, but the voice is so familiar, and everything else that goes with it. I shrug it off, and try getting up again, but with the other dudes help. I'm now standing on all fours, and now he finally talks. "Hey there." "Fuck it happened to me now." I say before letting out a long deep sigh. "Yeah...it did." He responds. "Fuuuck!" I pout again as that very familiar voice comes again. I walk over to the mirror, somehow flawlessly, for my first time as a pony. I'm not high enough to see my reflection, so I hop my forelegs up, and I rest them on the wall, and I get a perfect look at who I have become. Vinyl Scratch. How lucky, because Vinyl, is actually my favorite pony out of the whole show! I like know everything about her! It would take me an hour to tell somebody how much I knew about Vinyl. I'm always listening to her songs and what not, cause they are just so damn catchy! Well The Dj is quite a music experience. "Do you know who you are?" The other kid asks, standing next to me. "Yes I do." I say, dropping down from the mirror. "I have become The pony known as Vinyl Scratch." Now that I know who I am, i'm not bothered by the voice anymore. "Okay cool...I guess. Well I have to go to class. I'm late due to waking you up." He says, and with that he leaves. "Well buck me." Yes I said buck cause I'm trying to make light of this situation. I sigh again, and I make my way out of the bathroom, only to bump into none other than Kayden, or should I say SpitFire? He falls over from the sudden Impact, as to where I don't get phased at all. She grunts as she struggles to get up., and dusts herself off with a hoof, and turns to me, with much anger in her eyes. I can tell she isn't too happy about being knocked clean over, and all the while, I'm the only one around, and still standing, so it must have seemed like I shoved her on purpose. Then she tackles me, and brings her face close to mine, and I can feel her breath go down my neck "Dude what is your problem?! she shouts, and spit flies from her mouth and onto me. "Hey I-I didn't mean to! I just came out of the bathroom, then boom! I reply. "Yeah sure." SpitFire replies getting off of me. I sigh. "What?" She snaps. "Dude. it's me Kayden!" I say, my voice trembling a bit. I didn't really want him to find out, but he was going to anyway. As if being a pony for a mere couple minutes, with a new voice, is helping my situation. "Don't lie to me, or i will hurt you severely." "Kayden...you've changed. You're letting this whole being a pony thing get to you." "I don't know what you're talking about." "It's me. Seth." I say shamefully, as I hang my head low. "What really? It finally happened to you too?!" A sudden grin spreads across her face. "Yeah. Well we better get going. We're late for Biology." I say as I begin walking, and Kayden follows behind me. We both walk without saying a word, and I still feel so ashamed. My dad's not gonna be happy about this. Finding out his son had become of the people who had turned into ponies. We make our way through several different hallways, and up a couple flights of steps to the science floor. We walk down the hall, which is lined with blue lockers all the way to the end. I spot a bubbler a few feet ahead and I stop to take a drink. I rear up on my hind legs like before, while I press my forelegs into the button, and the stream of water flows out. I'm just able to reach it, as I take in a good amount of H2o. From there, we make the rest of the way to our class. We walk into the room, as Mrs. Angie sees us. She had been turned pony too. She is a light blue unicorn, with a yellow mane and tail, with a light bulb for a cutie mark. She scoffs at the fact that we are like ten minutes late. She turns to her computer and does blabbidy balh, cause I don't give a rats ass right now. Then she looks back to us. "So nice of you to join us Kayden. Do you have a late slip? She asks. "Nope." He says shaking his head. "One more time, and It's a phone call to your parents. "Like I care? I have been through more than a stupid phone call, so go ahead if you really want to." HE says before going to sit in his desk. "And who might you be?" She asks, turning her attention towards me. "Seth Rogan." I say quietly enough just for her to hear. "So I see, you've turned too then huh?" She aks. I just nod. "I'll excuse you for today then since it wasn't your fault...for once." She mumbles that last part under her breath, but I still hear it. I just don't say anything because I'm in enough shit as it is. I walk over to sit in the seat next to Kayden. I look down, as I play with my hooves a bit, trying to get more used to them, when I hear the sound of the door closing. I look straight up, and my ears turn to face the source of the sound. I see that Angie had used her magic to shut it. I look down again, as tears well up in my eyes. I try to fight them back, and thankfully none of my tears fall. "It's gonna be alright dude." Kayden says, patting my back. "No it's not. My dad's not gonna be happy when he finds out that I'm one of them." "Bah, he'll get over it. I did in only three months." he says chuckling after. "I'm not you though." I reply, still looking down. I should be happy I get to be my favorite character, but the fact of dad not being happy with it, just makes it horrible. biology went by with a bunch of stupid reading, then I had small engines, which I was no help at all to my 'still human' partner. I still haven't tried using magic yet, so bummer. Like there are several tiny pieces, that I wouldn't be able to grab without fingers. It sucks cause small engines is also my favorite class, and my partner didn't take to well with me being a pony all of a sudden. Seriously, we just talked during lunch before I had even gone to the bathroom. The last class of the day we are just studying how some random crazy complex shit works, that I don't even get. Sadly, Biology is my only class with my only friend, Kayden. Finally after what seems to have been hours, the bell rings and school is let out for the day, Students flood the hall way, and at least a third of them were ponies. I have hated Discord, now I hate him more. He has ruined my life!! Now I kinda wish I was an element of harmony so I could be there to give him the opposite of harmony, but then again, I'm not too fond of any other characters besides Vinyl, because vinyl Scratch is bae. I walk outside through the front door, and I see my dad across the street, waiting like every other day in his black Subaru WRX STI. I slowly make my way to the car without making it look obvious to him, as to who I really am. I notice he's on the phone, and when he's on it, his peripheral vision, is limited to the size of his phone, and his hearing goes deaf, so I take this to my advantage to sneak inside without him seeing. Luckily, I wasn't stopped at all today by any Vinyl Scratch fans, because this late into the whole humans becoming ponies from the show tells others that you aren't the real one so thank heavens for that. I try to open the door with my hooves, but it proves to be a worthless attempt, so I finally decide to try magic. I close my eyes, and focus on the door handle opening. I open my eyes to see it didn't work. Then I see the door is locked, so I try again, but on the locking pin thing. I watch as it glows blue, and rises up, with a click. It worked!! Now to open the door. I once again focus on the handle, and the door opens the slightest bit. From there, I use a hoof to pull it open. Then I sit, and use magic to close the door, and buckle myself in at the same time. Wow this is easier than I thought! But then dad sees me... "Um...do I know you?" He asks. I simply sigh and nod, while looking down again, and closing my eyes. "N-no. Don't tell me. Well fuck! now my only son has become one of them...things!" He shouts to himself. I feel my ears go flat against my head, "Yes, now can we just go home now?" I ask impatiently. He simply grunts, and we drive off. "Come on seriously? You went three months! Only three?! That's just sad Seth. You know, I'm not gonna call you Seth anymore. You disappoint me." He says, just staring out to the road. "Not like I chose to turn all of a sudden." I mumble. "Well you didn't choose not to either." He scoffs "Really?" I ask, raising my voice. "You sound so pathetic. Well that's all you are now, is pathetic." His words sink deep into me, and with each one feeling like a knife being driven into my heart. "Well fine then be that way you prick!" I shout using magic to stop the car, unbuckle, and open the door at the same time, as I leave the car. Now I begin my walking, as dad flips me off, and speeds home. Well this is a great first day as my favorite pony. I walk onto the sidewalk from the road, and begin walking the rest of the way home. "What's his problem?" I ask myself, kicking a can on the sidewalk. Eventually, I make my way home, and my hind legs are killing me, and I'm practically out of breath. To my luck, dad isn't home. I go up to my room right away, avoiding my mother. I check the time on my wall clock. 8:32 pm. 5 miles. I crash onto my bed, and soon I'm out. So much for first day as Vinyl Scratch. First it was passing out in the bathroom, then waking up a female pony, then to find I'm Vinyl Scratch to be exact. Next it was almost getting my head torn off by my own friend. Then it was the last few boring hours of school, to be picked by my dad who had to be a complete asshole!! Finally it was walking five miles home, alone. I think about that video I saw of Lauren and Tara as the princesses, and they said to come to New York city. Heh not gonna happen. Just walking five miles was hard enough, why thank you very much! This all adds to one simple conclusion by the way, and that conclusion is: "Buck my life."
