  Silence. That's all Chris could hear. Silence. Then chirps. And squeaks.
"Obviously, I'm in a field......but what I'm I doing here?"
Chris finally got his hearing back fully. Once again he heard thoise noises of nature. Then his sense of smell. He could smell.......well nature. Then his touch. He could feel grass.
"This is nice..." Chris was smiling and enjoying the moment.......until he got his sight back.
When he opened his eyes, he saw.....well a blue sky.
"Ok. So I'm still on Earth. Good. Now I need to know where-"
He was suddenly surprised when he saw a cyan blur move across his view.
"What in the-" he tried standing up, but soon fell flat on his......snout? Confused, he tried getting up from his belly. Instead of hands on the sides, he noticed.......Yellow hooves.....
"What The?!?!" Now panicking, he got up on all floors, wobbly, but still standing. He looked over himself to find something very........peciliar.
"Am I dreaming? I think I am." He saw the body of a yellow Earth pony. Apperantly, he had what looked like a tattoo of his "Fair Trade" sign from the Viva La Vida Era. His tail the same color as his hair......his hair! He raised a hoof to check his head. Yep. Still short. But what really surprised him was that-
"I'm naked?" Chris was all of a sudden very uncomfortable with this situation he was in.
"I'm NAKED?!?!?!" Chris couldn't take it anymore. He was sure he was just having a weird dream. He was sure that he was still on the bus, with his mates, just lying uconscious on the floor.
"Only one way to find out." He was about to kick himself when he heard a voice nearby.
"LOOK OUT!!!!" 
Chris didn't see it coming. He was all of a sudden tackled by the same blue blur he saw zipping across the skies. Only this blue blur had purple discs for eyes.........and wings.........and an exciting arrangement of hair.
"Whoops! He he. Sorry!" Dash said.
Chris was knocked back into a large puddle behind him. He was soaking wet.
"Naked AND soaked. Just what I need."
"Here! Let me fix that for you!" Rainbow Dash then proceeded to spin around him, making a rainbow colored cyclone. "With my very own patented, Rain-Blow Dry!" She then stopped the cyclone and looked back to admire her work. Chris's hair was a complete mess. His tail was frizzled. Chris managed to walk towards the puddle to see his reflection.
"Oh my god. I look absolutely ridiculous!" It was at that moment when he heard a familiar laugh. It was Will's. He turned around to see a chestnut colored, bald Earth pony with the same Free Trade tattoo.
"Nice haircut, Ace Ventura!" Will then proceed onto laughing even more after saying this.
Chris finally came to a conclusion.
"This is DEFINETLY, not a dream."
