"Hey, thanks Windy! I'm really happy you decided to invite us along today!" Fizzy told her friend with a grin. "I can't believe how amazing it all looks!"
"I am very glad you like it, Fizzy... though I can hardly understand your excitement over visiting a human world farm." Wind Whistler replied, shaking her head in bewilderment. "We Pegasus get to see this place fairly often when we come to retrieve Megan, so thought you and Gusty might enjoy having a look around the farm while I observe human world agricultural techniques."
"Boy, I'll say!" Gusty replied excitedly, looking around at all the strange stuff excitedly. "I never realized that the humans over here had all of this machine junk!"
The three ponies were standing near the barn on Megan William's family ranch, the place at the end of the rainbow bridge that Dream Valley ponies went to pick their human friend up from on earth. The Williams family was away on a vacation at the moment, making it the perfect opportunity to have a look around.
"Now, if the two of you will excuse me, I believe I shall go into the barn, and examine some of Mr. Williams's technical manuals." Wind Whistler started to trot away, narrowing her eyes. "And try not to get into any trouble while I am gone, please?"
Awww, Geez! Like we'd try to cause any kind of trouble!" Gusty snorted, as she and Fizzy went out into the farm field. "It's not like we're newborn foals, or something!"
"Hey Gusty, take a look at these messy piggies over here!" Fizzy chirped, looking through the fence at the hogs lying in the fitly mud. "Cute little piggies! Cute little piggies! Oinkie onkie!"
"Geez Fizz, they are cute and all, but you're making a fool out of yourself!" The other unicorn trotted over to the cattle pen. "He, take a look at these big bozos! Mooooo! Moooo!"
"Gusty, stop teasing that big bull in there!" Fizzy pleaded, totting over to where here friend was annoying a particularly big cow with horns. "He might get mad!"
"Aww, I ain't afraid of this big lummox!" Winking herself into the cattle pen, Gusty pulled off a red cloth that had been left hanging on the fence, and levitated it in front of the irritated bovine's face. "Toro! Toro!"
"No, Gusty! Don't get him mad!" Fizzy pleaded, winking into the corral to stop her friend. "He'll charce that red cloth, and-"
"MOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The bull roared in anger, charging at the two mares at full steam. He slammed into them with his horns, sending the unsuspecting ponies flying through the air.
"Aieeeeeeee!" The two ponies screamed, as they landed in the hog trough with a loud SPLAT!
"Ewww, this is all icky and gross!" Gusty exclaimed, shaking the mud off of her coat and mane in disgust. "You just HAD to tick that bull off, didn't you?"
"Eat my shorts, Fizz! We're okay, aren't we?" Gusty snapped, as she suddenly started to sniffle. "Oh doe, my dose is stuffing up again!"
"Gusty, your allergies!" Fizzy panicked, her eyes going wide. "We gotta get outta here before these pigs make you sneeze!"
"Ahhhhhh-choooo!" Gusty sneezed, causing her to involuntarily wink Fizzy and herself over by the tractor Mr. Williams had left parked out by the cornfield. "Sorry Fizz, guess I shouldn't have bugged that bull like that!"
"Aw, don't worry about it, Gusty!" Fizzy replied, looking up at the tractor. "Hey, why don't we check this thing out?"
The two ponies used their magic to open the door, and they both climbed up into the cab. Using their hooves, the two began to push buttons and pull levers. Suddenly, the tractors roared to life beneath them, and began moving forward with the two ponies in the cab.
"Oh, cool! We get to play farmer!" Gusty exclaimed, pulling the door on the tractor's cab shut. "I wonder how many horsepower this thing has?"
"Horsepower? I don't see any horses in here." Fizzy looked all around the cab, confused. "They must be really tiny, if they can fit inside that engine."
"This is what I get for having an idiot for a best friend." Gusty shook her head. "Anyway, let's take this thing for a spin!"
They drove the tractor right into the cornfield, it's back plow tearing up acres of the valuable crop as the farm machinery turned this way and that. The two mares used their magic to turn the steering wheel this way and that, causing the tractor to do all sorts of crazy twists and turns and loops all throughout the cornfield.
"I said we should go to the left!"
"No, we should go to the right!"
The tractor continued to drive wildly about until Winder Whistler finally noticed all the noise coming from outside the barn. Putting down the technical manual she was reading, the Pegasus raced to the barn door to find out what was causing all of the commotion.
"What in the world have you two gotten yourselves into this-" Then she saw the tractor. "Oh, great Bzekre!"
Taking to the air, the Pegasus zoomed over to where the tractor was, and threw the door open. Flipping the switches to stop the tractor, she glared angrily at the two mares sitting in the seat with guilty looks on thier faces.
"Hey Windy." Gusty said sheepishly. "Wassup?"
"Can't I leave you two alone for just ONE flanking minute?!" Wind Whistler groaned, burying her face in her hooves. "That does it, when I go out, I'm getting you a pony sitter!"
"I'm sorry, Windy! We'll get this thing back to where it belongs, we promise!" Fizzy apologized, looking back over the track they had left through the field. "Gee, you think anybody will notice our little oopsie?"
