//------------------------------// // Hide and seek in the boutique goes wrong // Story: Tinies and giants // by Crystalbreeze //------------------------------// RARITY: "Hey, daaarling?" Said Rarity after she opened her eyes and noticed Kevin was gone. She was alone. She looked around and under the things to see if the miniature human is under a table, or behind a coffer filled with gems. But he wasn't anywhere nearby. "Ready or Not, I'm coming! I'm gonna find you, darling! No matter what! I'm the best pony in hide and seek!" And so, the hide and seek game just begun. Rarity immedietly checked every places where she thought Kevin could use as a hiding spot. She was very confident. The clothes that she was working on were very suspicious too. She looked inside their pockets. There was some tables in the boutique, but Rarity found nothing. She looked around at every corner of the room carefully, but after a while she began to look elsewhere. It was all clear. The kitchen was like a huge playground where a tiny human can calmly find a place for himself to hide. The white unicorn looked under the table and inside the kitchen cabinet. The only thing she found were squeaking mouses. "Ah, great." She said to herself. "Such messy creatures. I hope I can ask Fluttershy to move them out of this place." But for a long time, she was just searching and searching. Sometimes she checked the places, where she already did that. She had no idea where Kevin could be. KEVIN: Of course she didn't, because Kevin was in Rarity's room. Under her bed. He was a teenager boy, who was about one and a half inches tall in the ponies' world. As Rarity closed her eyes in the beginning of the hide and seek game, Kevin started running in that moment. He ran into rarity's room, who anyway was his friend, and hid around there. He chose the bed for hiding there. And it was perfect. Nopony could find him. He was just sitting under the bed and looked to the door. He wanated to know if Rarity is coming. But fortunately she wasn't. The room was quiet until Kevin heard a scary sound behind him. It was like something growled. He turned his head to see what was the cause of the sound. There was darkness behind him. Just darkness, but to his surprise two angry red eyes appeared that looked at him. "What the..?" Suddenly two long and hairy tenticles apprared and they got Kevin and started to pull Kevin into the darkness. Everything happened so fast. Kevin yelled and screamed, because it was very scary. The creature which tried to get him also squirted a very sticky wet onto Kevin. "What the heck is this?" Asked Kevin with panic. "A web???" Then the two red came closer to him and then he could see the ountiles of the strange monster-like thing. It was a big black spider. "RARITY!!" Screamed the tiny human boy, as the ugly spider growled again loudly. "HELP ME!" Finally the spider got Kevin, tied him up with web and stung him. He immedietly fainted. Rarity wasn't close to him and couldn't hear his scream. RARITY: Instead of hearing that Kevin is in trouble, she was still searching for Kevin. She started being bored after about ten minutes. She started to call him: "Kevin? Kevin, where are you? I give up! You won!" But nothing. Not a voice, or footsteps. It was like he just disappeared. "This is not funny! Kevin! Darling? I said I give up!" Rarity then looked around.....again. And again. And again. She was bored and she wanted to find him. This hide and seek took a bit longer than she thought. After a long search the beautiful white pony went into her room and sat onto her bed. She started thinking. "What happened with Kevin? Why doesn't he show up? Did he disappear? Is he in trouble, or what? DID HE DIE????" While she was thinking about the answer, sparkling tears came out of her eyes. She was really worried about his little friend. KEVIN: Kevin didn't feel so good. When he woke up, his head was pulsing. He didn't had any energy and he felt very tired. As he could notice, his skin became wrinkled and he was tired up between the ground the celling under Rarity's bed with tight and sticky spider net. Kevin wasn't able to move, or scream. He had a hoarse voice. The spider was farther away, so he was alone. Once he heard that something was on the bed. Something very huge. The door was opened and that somebody, or somepony, who was on the bed cried quietly. It had soft female voice. There was no doubt that it was Rarity. She was worried about him. About Kevin, who was under her bed and a giant spider poisoned him. He tried to pay Rarity's attention. He whispered, while looked up: "Rarity? Is that you? Rarity! I'm down here! Under your bed! HELP!" No answer. he tried a few more times, until the terrifying spider came back to him. It had red colored eyes and it had black hair all around its eight long legs, head, thorax and abdomen. It walked closer to Kevin, who tried so scream. "RARITY!" But his voice wasn't too loud. And when the spider started to climb the web to reach Kevin, the boy yelled as loud as he could: "HEEEELP!" The hoarse voice was just enough to pay Rarity's attention, but at first she didn't realize it was Kevin. She heard a quiet and strange voice under her bed. However the tiny boy couldn't yell more, because the spider covered his mouth. RARITY: "What was that?" Rarity asked from herself as she heard the voice from under her bed. "Kevin!" She looked under the bed and saw almost nothing. There was so much web there. But there was one thing she still saw. Something that made him so happy after the little crying and being so much worried. It was Kevin in a bunch of spider-web. "KEVIN! I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU!" But Kevin answered with a scared face. He couldn't talk, because his mouth was covered. Rarity didn't know what was the problem, but as the big and ugly spider appeared, she understood what happened. Ths spider was big, not as a pony, but big. It was the size of a normal pony's hoof. Rarity was scared. She hates bugs and spiders. "Ugh. A spider!" The spider jumped in front of Rarity, growled and squirted some net onto her nose. "You little beast! What did you do with Kevin? I'LL TEACH YOU HOW TO HURN A LITTLE HUMAN!" Yelled the huge unicorn and with her horn she made the black eight legged creature float it the air. She walked away with it and opened the window. And then she threw it away. After this, she walked back and took Kevin out. The miniature human was very sick, but thanks to a pretty useful spell Rarity healed him. EPILOGUE: In the end of the hide and seek that went wrong, Rarity sat on the rocking chair, which she made himself years ago. Kevin was in her lap, but as the miniature boy became sleepy, she lifted him up to her fluffy chest and cuddled him, like he would be his son. After this scary game he needed to rest a bit, so finally he fell asleep in Rarity's hooves. While he was sleeping, the white and gorgeous looking white pony smiled and said: "You're so small, but very cute too! While I'm with you, nopony will be able to hurt you, Kevin!"
