Wile E staggered in the direction of the smoke, hoping he would find somebody, anybody, who might be able to help him with his injuries, preferably someone capable of realigning a few dislocated bones and stitching up a lot of bear claw wounds. Thank goodness I don't have to worry about blood loss, Wile E thought to himself. Otherwise this story would have to change its rating to Teen. Wait, what am i even thinking about? Maybe it's a concussion coming on.
Wile E continued limping towards the smoke's direction for a couple more minutes until he saw an opening in the trees ahead of him. That must be the way out of this stupid place! Wile E smiled. Things suddenly seemed hopeful for the battered coyote, and so he wasted no time and hobbled as quickly as he could, not wanting to spend another minute in this blasted forest.
When he reached the opening, Wile E saw a small cottage near a small little river. The smoke he had seen puffed from out of the chimney. Good. That means there's someone living here. Wile E painfully made his way towards the cottage, crossing over the small bridge and up to the door. BEARing the pain as he lifted his arm, he knocked on the door.
No answer.
Wile E frowned. He knocked again.
No answer again.
Wile E started to grind his teeth together. Oh, do not do this to me right now, he growled in his thoughts. Suddenly, his ears perked up as he heard a melodic humming coming from somewhere. Maybe around the back of the house, perhaps?
Wile E walked around the side of the house, following the sound of the humming. On the other side of a little fence before him, he saw a little yellow horse with wings throwing bird feed on the ground in front what appeared to be a chicken coop , this assumption confirmed as a bunch of hens came out to feast upon the feed.
And what a lovely tasty looking bunch of hens they were. Wile E smacked his lips hungrily.
Well, I haven't had a bite to eat since I got here. And that pony doesn't look much of a threat whatsoever. Dinner's practically presenting itself to me right here! Rubbing his paws together with renewed glee, Wile E quietly climbed over the wooden fencing, and began to tip toe up behind the little mare.
She was so occupied with feeding the hens and humming to herself that she had no idea of the starving and slightly bleeding coyote creeping up on her. Likewise, the hens were too busy pecking away at their feed to notice him and alert the mare with panicked squawks.
There is no way this can go wrong, Wile E confidently cackled to himself as he closed in on the unsuspecting mare. What could possibly ruin this moment? As he stood right behind the little winged mare now, he loomed over her with his arms stretched wide, taking his blooming time to grab the unaware creature for some reason.
Then something out of the corner of his eye made Wile E turn his head to the side, and the color just drained from his body leaving him completely white and dead in his tracks. Oh...there's a bear...drinking tea with a bunch of birds...but still a big bear...okay, probably in my best interests right now to start leaving.
Fortunately the old grizzly didn't seem to have noticed the coyote's presence, an advantage which Wile E was sure to make good use of as he made his quiet retreat back to the wooden fence. However, had his eyes not been fixated on the hulking grizzly bear as he was backing up away from the blissfully unaware pony, Wile E could have avoided stepping on the rake behind him.
The coyote felt the wooden handle whack the back of his head before he even realized his mistake, and a second later the world began to spin around him as everything faded to black, the sound of a surprised gasp being the last he heard.
Poor guy. Granted, this is par for the course, but still, poor guy.
7736924 Expect this to probably be the last chapter until some years later down the line.
Well at least now he can get treatment from Fluttershy.
7736984 Assuming I can find the strength to bother writing another chapter. i feel I've no reason to continue this story. I was gonna do a longer chapter but i just couldn't begin to think of how to go about writing it up. So readers get this castrated version.
i need to find somebody to work with on these stories. i can't be bothered writing them up by myself anymore. it's boring as hell and it's awful going at it alone. i'm not talented enough to keep this up. If I don't find a co-writer or whatever you call them to give me a hand in writing better crap then I may as well cancel this story, which would probably get me a bit of hate since surprisingly a few people actually seem to like this despite my awful writing skills.
Ah, the wonders of Ursus Arctos Horribilis (fun fact: that is the actual scientific name for the grizzly bear). How will reality screw over Wile E. next?
Edit: and the wonders of the Leafius Rakeus
7737020 Unless I find somebody willing to work with an awful writer such as myself, we may never know. Because there won't be another chapter. I'm sick of writing this damn story by myself. i want help to make the chapters actually worth the time of readers like you.
7737001
I do not think that your writing style is all that bad. I also think you have some skill at writing if you can get 116 (at the time of this posting) people to follow your story. Just put it on your back burner and slowly write the next chapter as it comes to you. Leave an authors note so people who stumble across it at a later time will know why it will take so long for another chapter.
Ah the classic rack joke, it never gets old.
Also isn't there a group or forum for collab work you can ask for?
7737028 i'm not comfortable with my writing style. i read other stories and then when i look back at mine, it's never good in my eyes. Plus I've never really enjoyed writing by myself. i just hate writing fanfics so much on my own. I'am never happy with what i write after reading other people's stories.
I'll take the chapter down in a bit and try to do a bit more with it. If I can.
7737046 I don't know. Is there?
Pffft, the old "step on a rake" gag, instant classic!
The new chapter is interesting, glad to see that Fluttershy is going to be there soon to attend to his numerous injuries.
Brilliance incarnate!
7801567 You're reading a chapter that is only 700 words long and took a year to do because I had to force myself to write another chapter...what was remotely good about this chapter?
7801579 Clopfics are more interesting than my fanfic and literally EVERY clopfic plays out the same way to the point that they're impossible to make original. I'm astounded you found anything interesting in 700 words, because I've seen other, far more competent writers more deserving of praise than I, actually write interesting chapters using more than 700 words. Hell, some of them write as much as 10,000 words per chapter, and you found 700 of mine interesting. What is it about this fanfic that people like so much?
7801586
I think you commented on the wrong story, mate.
7801591 How?
7801597 Because this isn't a story deserving of the phrase "Smart-brilliance incarnate!". Because it was written by myself. So I naturally thought you commented on the wrong story or something. I mean, 700 words for a new chapter isn't deserving of a place in the featured section, unless those 700 were written by, you know, an actually good storyteller, which I am not.
7801597 Oh thank goodness, it's not in the Featured box anymore. I was getting worried there for a moment.
7801579 Just letting you know the story isn't in the featured box anymore, so now an actual good story can take the spot, thank goodness.
7801620 I beg to differ. Art comes in many shape and forms, and sometimes it's short, sweet, and savory.
7801589 You've pulled off the comedy perfectly, and honestly,it truly feels like a Wile E. Coyote adventure, with all kinds of hijinks involving the MLP cast
7801650
The original Roadrunner show is comedy pulled off perfectly, not this trash. There have only been two ponies so far, not the whole cast, and this fanfic is going to get worse without somebody who knows how to write decent material.
All I can say is !!!!!
7801644
It makes me sad to know you feel this way.
I will say that I have been enjoying this story and I feel that it is worth the praise I am giving it.
7802058 Well, that is overly kind of you, but I just don't think a story should get featured for chapters that only had 700 words written. I just don't feel like i deserved the spot. I'm sorry.
i just need somebody to help me write. i just can't continue writing fanfics anymore unless I get help with them. Something to possibly light the old spark I once had for writing. I don't want to look at my content and think that they are unworthy of people#s attention.
