//------------------------------// // Where the, what the, who the, huh? // Story: Brothers // by ThreeBronyBrothers //------------------------------// ...There was a sound of thunder. There was a flash of bright light. There was the sound of three boys screaming like girls. And just like that, it was over. It was 5 o'clock in the morning, and somewhere in the magical land of -LOCATION WITHHELD-, three brothers were happily asleep. At 7 o'clock, Luigi woke up, still feeling really tired, so much so that his vision was blurred. Or maybe that was because he wasn't wearing his glasses. He got ready and left really quickly, sensing that today wasn't going to be the best of days. He got on his bike and began to ride to school while trying to fully wake up. Man, it's bright out today. Can't even see straight. These friggin colors are too HD. Sunglasses... he thought as he put on his shades. They helped a little. The trip was strange. The bike felt wobbly the whole time. Uh oh. Something might be loose. better get it checked out later. thought Luigi. When he finally got there, he pulled up in front of the gate. Only there was no gate there. Instead, when he tried to lean on it, he fell right over onto the grass. What the hell? he thought as he got up. Then, he took off his shades and rubbed his eyes. When he opened them, his jaw hit the ground. Oh yeah, I'm dreaming. Which means that I must be late for work. Damn. In front of him, 10 yards away, was Twilight's library. He couldn't believe his eyes. He tried rubbing them again, but it was still there. "Oh my god... I'm in Ponyville... but I just left the house... TONY AND G!" he realized that he had better make sure his brothers were safe, if they were even here. He hopped back onto his bike and sped down the road, back towards the house. Then he actually looked at the situation from a broader perspective. Wait a second...I'm in Ponyville, so... He looked down at himself, and instead of seeing his blue shirt and jeans, he saw blue fur. Holy Jesus! Then he looked at his hands, but saw two blue and white hooves. I'm a pony! OH MY GOD!... wait a second... can ponies ride bikes? ...aaand physics. He lost control of the bike handles, and jumped off of the bike using the pedals, landing on all fours. The bike, however, continued rolling upright, somehow riding itself out of view, into what looked like the Everfree Forest. "...and it's gone" Luigi said. "At least I'm halfway there. Guess I'll have to..." at this point, he puts his shades back on, "...HOOF IT! YEEEEAAAHHHHH!" ~Meanwhile~ Tony woke up unusually early (which really meant 8:01) and proceeded to attempt to climb down from his bed. He managed to fall off and hit the floor. That's how he normally got off his bed, even if it meant hurting himself to do it. People would say "Don't do that!" and "Your gonna mess up your head!". I don't see the point. That way is just more fun then getting off regularly. He even managed to make a dent into the floor where he landed. Except this time it hurt, a lot. "OWW what the buck!!" Tony put his arms over his head. After a few minutes of pain, he began to lower his arms and observed them. "AHHH!", what happened to my arms! They're red! OH MY GOD, I'm bleeding! What, no? After a few minutes of closer examination he realized that he wasn't. Oh, well that's kinda disappointing. If that's not blood then... he thought to himself. He started to examine the rest of his arm, and he got to his hand. What happened to my hands?. He saw... well, a lack of hands. Umm, okay, that was kinda unexpected. Well what are these then... hooves? Wait a minute... CLICK Holy son of a beach ball on the moon in Africa! This is awesome! I'm a pony! The last word rang in his head for a few moments. Well, I think I've been serious enough. Preparing to launch in three... two... on- Antonio.exe stopped working. Send error report? Nah... After several moments (moments, minutes, an hour, whatever) of complete nonsense which was loud enough to wake up people in the next area code, Giovanni woke up and started to get out of bed. Then he said "What are you doin- Oh my God what happened to you!" Realizing that his brother was a pony, G ran to the mirror, and saw that he was a yellow foal with a brown mane and tail. He also noticed that he had wings, and said "OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO ME?!?!!!" Still wondering if he was dreaming, he thought, Did I die and go to Equestria? Wait a minute, one does not simply. Deep in shock, he said, "THIS IS AWESOME!! OKAY TONY WHAT HAPPENED I AM SO CONFUSED AND YET SO AMAZED!!!!!!!" he looked to see the clock read 8:47 and said, "Alright, so Luigi won't be home for a while, and we appear to be ponies. Seems legit. What do we do now? I think we should-" "GUYS, WE HAVE A SITUATION!" Luigi yelled as he barged into the house. "Boy, that escalated quickly." Tony said. Tony and G went to the door to meet Luigi. They stared at each other for a few moments, then they all exclaimed in unison, "WHAT THE BUCK HAPPENED LAST NIGHT?!" "Look, I'm a Pegasus!" exclaimed G happily. Luigi looked at Tony and said, "Dude, you're a unicorn." Tony looked at Luigi and said, "Dude, you're a unicorn too." "Woah. This is friggin awesome" Luigi said. "How long have you guys been awake?" "About half an hour" replied G. "That means that I spent like 30 minutes... wow. That's a new record." Tony said. "So, you guys haven't really done anything yet? Well what are we waiting for!" He pointed to his horn, "Let's see what this baby can do!" With that, he attempted to do some sort of magic. However, he had no idea what he was doing, so nothing occurred. Meanwhile, Giovanni was jumping up into the air, trying to fly. After some trial and error, he figured out how to keep his balance in the air. "It's all about keeping your wings at the same level and moving them at the same time." he explained. As Luigi continued failing to do anything, Tony walked back into the room, levitating a cup of water. Luigi saw this, stopped what he was doing, and facehoofed. "How are you doing that?" he asked. "Doing what?" Tony replied. "That! With the cup!" "Oh, this? It's easy! You just...kinda...do it." "Gee, thanks for the help!" Luigi said sarcastically, as he laid down on the white couch, trying to do something, ANYTHING. Then his phone rang, and Luigi said, "Damn telemarketers. Why are they always calling?" He answered his phone the usual way he would for telemarketers. In a monotone voice he said, "Hello! This is an automated voice message from survey center! Would you like to take a survey?" The other person on the line hung up. "Works every time!" Luigi said happily. Then he realized something. He hadn't actually held his phone while he was talking. Where was it? Did he drop it or something? Then, his phone's alarm clock went off, late as usual. "Ah! Turn that off!" Luigi yelled. He heard the music stop. But I don't even have my phone on me! What's going on? Then he figured it out. He was using his phone with magic! While this was happening, Giovanni was staring at his brother as he appeared to talk to himself, and Tony prepared for an exorcism. Tony was about to start throwing water at Luigi when he suddenly "woke up" from his "trance". "Woah. That's cool." Luigi said all of a sudden. "You know, you're starting to act more and more like me every day!" Tony said. "I've taught you well." "I don't think that's a good thing." Luigi said worriedly. "You have got to check this out!" "What? Did you figure what's wrong with Tony?" G asked hopefully. "Unfortunately, no. Something better. I figured out some magic!" Luigi explained, "I can access my phone through my horn! check this out!" He went to his music and chose a song. Pony music of course. (Here's what he put on). The song played through his horn, which lit up slightly. It dimmed and shone brighter in tune with the song. "Aw Yeah! this is awesome!" Luigi yelled over the music, which was a little too loud. He figured out how to lower the volume, and brought it down to a less painful level. "Okay, so to use the phone, all I have to do is imagine what needs to be done to navigate the phone. I just imagine the phone in front of me, and press the buttons that will get me to where I need to go. Awesome! Hmmm...I think I'll call it my headphone! Get it? Head-Phone? HA? ... well, I think it's funny..." "...Okay, so what next?" Giovanni asked. The three of them practicing their abilities had taken a few hours. "Well, when I got to where school was supposed to be, I saw Twilight's library." Luigi said. Tony dropped the cup, which shattered on the floor. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US EARLIER!?!? LET'S GO!" He made for the door, but Luigi yelled, "WAIT!" Tony stopped and looked at him, "What?" "You of all people would waste this opportunity?" Luigi said, raising an eyebrow. "What do you mea- ohhhh....I get it." "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "Do you have the song?" "Hell yeah." ... "Let's do this!"
