//------------------------------// // Parker's Party // Story: Alive // by Broneyofnoel //------------------------------// Twilight and Parker had finished unpacking in about two hours, most of the work was done by Twilight's magic, but Parker insisted on carrying in his underwear and other items. "So, Parker, are you ready to go to Pinkie's party?" Twilight asked, looking at his now full room. "Yeah, let's go." Parker said excitedly, heading downstairs. The two walked down the street for a few minutes, they finally reached Sugarcube corner, he let Twilight lead the way, trying not to know where the bakery was, it was much farther than it looked. Parker held the door open for Twilight and the two walked in to the dark bakery. "Hello?" Parker asked, looking around the dark room. "I wonder where they are." Twilight looked around as well. "SURPRISE!!" Pinkie jumped out, and then twenty ponies came into view. "Ahh..." Parker jumped up and hit his head on the door frame. "Whoops!" Pinkie said as Parker fell into unconsciousness. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "You think he's dead, WAKE UP!!" Pinkie slapped Parker across the face with her hoof. "Ow." Parker sat up, knocking Pinkie off of him accidentally, "What happened?" "You hit yer head." Applejack said. "How long have been out?" Parker asked, his head panged with pain. "About five minutes." Twilight said. "Really? That wasn't very long." Parker said, standing up. "Yep, now, time for the PARTAY!!" Pinkie said, and almost magically, party music started. Pinkie put her hoof on his shoulder, and stood on her hind legs. "Over there is the punch." she pointed her free hoof at the punch. "And there's the Cakes." "Oh, and that's Gummy!" Gummy ran up to them, and clamped himself on Pinkie's mane, upside down. "And I'll introduce you to the ponies!" Pinkie finished. "Okay, what are those?" Parker pointed to some wrapped boxes, presents? "Oh, those, they're your presents!" Pinkie rubbed his head with her hoof. "Presents?" Parker asked. "You know, gifts, goodies?" Pinkie had never met somepony, err, somehuman that didn't know what presents were. "No, I know what they are, but why?" he was dumbfounded. "You're new, everyone who's new gets presents!" Pinkie jumped. "Cool!" Parker said, a huge grin spreading across his face. Pinkie must've noticed, because a grin was spreading across hers as well. "I knew you'd love it!" she ran off, leaving Parker with Twilight and Rainbow, who had just arrived. "Hey Parker, sup?" Rainbow said, walking up to him. "Nothing much, you?" Parker said. "Meh, me either." Rainbow said. "Oh, this is Fluttershy." Rainbow stretched her arm and pulled Fluttershy through the doorway. "Hello Fluttershy." Parker outstretched a friendly hand, Fluttershy flinched. "Hi, umm, my.." Fluttershy dug at the ground, "Hello, P-Parker." Fluttershy slowly rose her hoof to shake his hand. "What do you like to do?" Parker asked. "Oh, well, I, I like taking care of animals." Fluttershy perked up a bit. "That's interesting." Parker said. "What do you like to do?" Fluttershy asked. "Well, I don't do much, I, I'll tell you later." Parker's expression dampened. "Okay, I'll see you around. "Okay." Parker walked towards Rainbow again, he and Fluttershy had been moving apparently. "So Rainbow, what do you like to do?" he asked, he already knew, but he needed to get to know them better. "I love flying, oh and the Wonderbolts, yeah, I'm the only pegasus to do a sonic Rain-boom." Rainbow jumped and hovered in the air. "Cool!" Parker was awe struck, she was flying. Parker walked around, he chatted with Applejack, and some with Derpy Hooves. "Parker!! Come here real quick!" Pinkie's hoof pulled him across the room. "Yeah?" Parker spun around, adn saw Big Macintosh standing there, in front of him. "Hello." Parker stuck out a hand to shake. "Hiya, name's Macintosh, but everypony calls me Big Mac." Macintosh said, shaking Parker's hand. "So, Applejack tells me that you're related." Parker said. "Eeyup." Mac said. Again, Parker was awe struck, it was Big Mac's catch phrase. "You alright?" Mac asked. "Yeah, I'm fine." Parker said. "So, you're a 'human'?" Mac said. "Yeah, I'd rather not, I'd want to be a pony more than anything." Parker said, it was true. "You're lucky, Ah'd want to be a human." Mac said. "Why?" How do you know what a human is, I thought I was the only one here." Parker said. "You are, Twilight says tons of cool stuff about humans." Macintosh said. That ended, well actually, a Pink hoof pulled him across the room again, this time towards Rarity. "Hello Rarity." Parker said. "Greetings Parker, now you will tell me how your hair is that color, and style." Rarity said, examining his hair. "I don't know about the color, I was just born with it, and the style, I call that, normal, I don't know, it just lays that way." Parker said. "Such a shame, you have such, different, interesting hair, I like the color, that light brownish blond, what is it?" Rarity asked, touching his hair. "Dirty Blond." Parker said. "Ugh, anything else you call it, I cannot state that I have dirty blond." Rarity cringed at the word. "I don't know, light brownish I guess." Parker said, shrugging. "Quite," Rarity said, pondering her thoughts, "be at my boutique tomorrow." "Alright." Parker walked off, leaving Rarity to her thinking. The party slowly died down, everypony except for Pinkie, Twilight, and Parker left, and then they opened his presents, Pinkie went right to work, then Parker, and finally Twilight. "Ooh, Parker, Bon-Bon gave you some Bon-Bons, they are the best!" Pinkie chirped. "Pinkie, do you want them?" Parker asked, noticing the smile on her face. She gobbled the plate as well. "Parker, Applejack gave you a cowboy hat, I like it, try it on" Twilight said, handing him the hat. "i like it, a lot." the hat looked perfect on him. The three opened presents for ten minutes before they finished, and they were all tired after the party. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The phone rang at Parker's house, he was in Equestria, not in the war filled, horrible world he used to be in, the answering machine picked up the message. "Hey, Parker, It's me Gabe, I checked out that My Little Pony Show, it was pretty cool, see ya." Parker wasn't there, he was happy, and he had a big day ahead of him.
