I was working on one of my greatest inventions: a device that could do something that not even the greatest unicorn mages couldn't achieve. The device would allow the user to travel through time. It looked rather odd being a blue colored old phone booth with a dashboard full of random buttons and levers. It all seemed rather complicated, but to me I knew how to operate this devise with ease. I was rather pleased with myself as I had, in fact, finished this time travel machine after years of sweat and tears. The device was ready to get him to any destination at any point in Equestria's history or future.
I threw a hoof over my face wiping the sweat from my brow. I then heard the door open from behind him. I looked to see my fiance' Derpy coming downstairs with a platter full of sandwiches, cups full of black tea, and a teapot with steam pouring out of the spout with a smile on her face as she asked. "So you finally made your major breakthrough?"
I raised his head in pride and placed a hoof over my chest, and exclaimed, "that's right! My greatest invention is finally complete! I can't wait to try it out!"
I took a cup of steaming tea and drank it down while sitting down and chowing down on my sandwich. "Thank you, you're always at my side through everything."
"Of course, I love it when you get excited over your experiments." the sweet grey coated pegasus responded curtly with a little blush growing on her cheeks.
I strutted over to my soon to be wife and looked down into her golden eyes. I bent forward and kissed her. We held each other into each other's embrace. As we broke, I looked at my fiance' and whispered, "you've done so much in helping me get to this point; you found all the necessary components, and despite you not even knowing what they are or do. I really couldn't have done this without your assistance."
Derpy nuzzled under my neck as she replied, "I may not understand everything you talk about, but I couldn't help but see how your experiments turn out….though time travel? Are you sure this is a good idea?"
I scoffed at the question and exclaimed quite adamantly. "Of course! This is the biggest breakthrough in Equestrian history! Only the great Starswirl the Bearded could achieve time travel. Still, his spells were very known to be dangerous and experimental, with very few being able to perform them. I, however, finished creating a device that will be able to be used by anypony!"
I slammed a hoof back over my chest and proclaimed, "but of course, it will need a test run, and I have no objections trying it myself!
Derpy looked downward as she gave a nod, still feeling unsure of my decision, but she saw there was no stopping me as she whispered, "alright...just be careful."
I gave a sigh under my breath. She always worries over me and my experiments, but it was also rather touching. She was so caring and thoughtful. It's the reason why she was my special somepony. I placed my hoof under her chin and lifted her head up. "Don't worry, I won't do anything that'll put my life in danger."
Depry still didn't seem convinced but nodded anyway; the stallion slowly came to the phonebooth. I went over and started pressing buttons on the dashboard and then set for a few hours before. This was just a test run, so I didn't need to go back that far through time. However, as I finished inputting the time I wish to travel to, the dashboard started to glow and sputter, shooting out spouts of electricity; the dashboard then suddenly burst into spouts of flames, and the time machine exploded. I looked over to see my fiance' rushing over to help. A bright light enveloped everything, and I was sent through a portal, and everything exploded into a rainbow of colors.
I woke up with a raging headache, and slowly rubbed a hoof over my head and looked across my basement, and saw that I was thrown a few meters away from the device. The machine was still relatively intact, but the device's dashboard was utterly destroyed. I looked over to see Depry was somewhat confused, staring at the time machine in horror.
I was in great pain and groaned as I rubbed the back of my neck. "Hey, Derpy over here!"
The grey coated pegasus looked over and gasped seeing me and flew over and embraced me in a hug, wrapping her wings around me as she cried out. "Oh, thank Celestia, your ok!"
"Yeah... I'm fine...though I guess not so much for my time machine...luckily only the dashboard was destroyed." I grumbled under my breath, don't get me wrong, I was glad I was alive, but this whole ordeal was a major setback with my experiment.
"Well, I'm just happy you're ok," Derpy whispered, nuzzling herself into me. I hugged her back, feeling much better with her next to me, but she was quivering beneath his hooves; this whole mess must've been quite traumatizing. I bent to her ear and whispered, "don't fret, I'm perfectly fine...I think that's enough experimenting for today...why don't we go to the new years party at Sugarcube Corner? I think we both need a break."
"Oh, that sounds like fun!" Derpy exclaimed, clapping her hooves together. I got back on my hooves and looked over at my time machine, and pondered what could've gone wrong? I thought I had everything engineered, and the particle accelerator installed was perfectly tuned. I thought I would just have to recalculate some things to avoid another catastrophic failure...but for now, it will be an excellent time to go party and try to forget about my problems.
So we left our house, and we both set off to Sugarcube Corner. We spent a good few hours dancing and drinking and having a good time at the party. A teenager, Pinkie Pie, was there bouncing around throwing balloons and serving drinks, while the Cakes were handling the pastry bar. I continued to drink some wine but tried not to drink too much as I hated being drunk. Things seemed to be relatively normal at the party as I did my best to try forgetting about tonight's unfortunate events. Derpy stayed close to me for most of the night as we danced together, having a seemingly good time together. It was apparent that the mare was still nervous for my well being as she asked, "Hey, you feeling ok? You're not hurt or anything?"
I gulped down the rest of my wine as I felt somewhat nervous about the side effects of my failed time machine's quantum effects. I looked around my body, kicked my legs; my headache was gone, and I didn't feel pain. I even gave my rump a shake. "Yeah, I'm fine….no side effects as far as I can see or feel."
Derpy took her hooves and hugged me once again, and I fell into her embrace as we continued to dance together as slow music coursed through the cafe. We danced around the cafe to the music, and they turned to Pinkie Pie, the teenaged pink coated mare that worked at Sugarcube Corner, bounced to the podium and proclaimed. "Alrighty! It's time for the countdown! Once again thank you all for welcoming me to Ponyville. I love this town and everypony here! I had a great year throwing tons of parties! And this has to be the biggest one yet! Now, let's begin the countdown…"
As the ponies around them counted down from ten...I looked into my fiance's gold-colored eyes, and we seemed to be drawn together. It wasn't long until we slowly embraced. We kissed each other again the second time that night. Then suddenly, everypony around us shouted, "Happy New Years!" from the crowd. In that instance, I saw those rainbow colors flood my vision, and they enveloped me, and the last thing I remember was my body shrinking to the ground.
I woke up once again. I was on my back and staring up at the ceiling with a raging headache again. I slowly turned my head and looked around me and saw that the party was long over, the music stopped, and most ponies had left. It took me a few moments to realize. However, everything seemed bigger the tables and chairs were towering over me, the last few ponies still drinking or dancing were being herded out the doors by Pinkie, and the Cakes were huge! They looked like giants! What was going on!? Why does everything feel so weird? I tried moving my limbs, but they seemed to be moving on their own, wiggling about over me. I gasped, seeing my pudgy brown hooves; they were thick full of blubbery fat! I tried to shout for help, but a wave of incoherent gibberish babbled out instead! Did I lose the ability to talk? My hooves are full of fat? Ponies looking like giants!? My mind suddenly came to the conclusion I had been regressed to a foal!?
At this realization, I tried to get somepony's attention by waving my new pudgy limbs about and started to cry out. Pinkie Pie was the first pony to notice me. She scooped me up within her hooves. I must be pretty light, maybe only weighing a few pounds. I was now staring at the big blue eyes as she chirped, "Hey, little guy! Looks like some little foal wandered into the party."
Both Mr. and Mrs. Cake, upon hearing this from Pinkie, came overlooking somewhat surprised at what they were seeing. I felt so anxious and scared, kicking about my pudgy hooves and whimpering as they slowly came over to get a closer look at me.
Cupcake was surprised to see the foal and asked, "who is this little foal? I don't remember anypony bringing their kids?"
Carrot Cake scratched his mane and replied, "There were a lot of ponies that came through; maybe somepony couldn't find a foal sitter?"
Pinkie Pie shook her head, looking the colt over. "I know almost everypony in Ponyville, and none of them have a colt with this mane or coat color…I bet he escaped the maternity ward at the hospital. We should talk to nurse Redheart and see if she's missing a foal."
Cupcake ruffled Pinkie's mane and replied, "what a great idea, Pinkie, she's probably right; the little one must've somehow escaped the maternity ward."
She then took the poor doctor onto her back with the little colt whimpering as he could feel the strain on my bladder. I drank a lot, and it seemed all that liquid from his adult body was condensed in his younger form must've filled it up. What's worse, he knew this body wouldn't be able to hold it for long. I started to whine and kick my chubby legs, feeling the pang in my bladder about to burst! But suddenly, it was almost out of nowhere I felt a soft, comfortable fabric ramp around my rump. I was quite curious about what this feeling was, to my horror. I watched as my rump was wrapped up in white puffy looking fabric! It didn't take long for me to conclude that it had to be a diaper! I kicked and cried furiously that I was a doctor with two PHDs having to be humiliated in such a manner! Pinkie seemed somewhat confused by my reaction when it came to my realization that the pink coated mare was the one dressing me in the fabric as she commented, "Oh my, he's rather fussy."
"Where did you even get that? We don't have foals?" Mrs.Cake asked, being instead surprised herself.
"Hey, I have all kinds of stuff in my mane! Never know when you need some protection for a foal!" Pinkie exclaimed proudly as she bounced over and nuzzled me. She then placed me on the older mare's back. I couldn't lie; the fabric felt good around me, like a soft pillow hugging my rump. The pink coated mare quickly jumped over and asked, "Can I take care of him, please!?"
"No... we'll take care of the foal...but thank you for your help," Mrs. Cake replied; it was evident as much as she trusted Pinkie, she didn't feel as if the teenager was ready for caring for a foal.
Mr.Cake came over and ruffled Pinkie's mane and replied, "don't worry, we've been thinking of having foals ourselves, so it gives us some practice."
"Right, ok, well, if you need anything, let me know!" Pinkie exclaimed as she bounced off to her room.
I just sat there on the big blue mare's back, completely helpless and unable to do anything as I was carried up the stairs and towards the Cakes bedroom. There he was set down on the bed. I just laid on a sea of mattress, looking upwards at the ceiling above. The mare Cupcake left probably to go get herself ready for bed. I decided to try moving my limbs, but my body seemed to not respond as before. I felt drool run down my cheeks from my attempts to talk. Mrs.Cake came back over with a smile on her face looking down at me. "Awww, is the little one trying to talk? Don't you worry, tomorrow we'll find your parents, and you can let them hear your first words."
I grumbled under my breath being talked to in such a manner. However, my thoughts were interrupted as the big mare came down into the bed and held me close to her warm chest as I snuggled within her embrace. I was so perplexed about the situation I was in. How can he escape this predicament? I was now snuggled into the embrace of the massive mare, Mrs.Cake, and I could hear her rhythmic heartbeat. I didn't want to admit it, but this was rather soothing and comforting...of course, these are just my foalish instincts kicking in and overriding my senses. I closed my eyes and wondered in my mind how I was going to find Derpy and try to get back to normal.
