//------------------------------// // Equestria? How absurd! // Story: Asymmetrical Garbage! A tale of Death the Kid and His Equestrian Experience // by Sapphire Oceans //------------------------------// It was a bright beautiful summer day in Equestria. The sun shone brightly over Ponyville. A pony by the name of Pinkie Pie sat on the grassy side of a dirt road. Every now and then other ponies would pass by, and wave hi at her, but none seemed to notice what lay on the other side of the dirt road. There was a white bench that'd been there for years, Pinkie understood ponies not caring about that, it was what lay on the bench that was amazing. A Human was lazily plopped on it. Both of his arms were thrown over the back, much like his head just kind of hung over the back of the bench. His legs were spread out, but crossed. The Human appeared to be fully dressed too. A black coat with what looked like a nice dress shirt, and pretty black jeans that almost sparkled in the sun's bright light. Pinkie could also make out a pin on his shirt, right below a pocket with a red pen on each side of it. The Pin had "Death The Kid" Engraved in it. Pinkie wondered what that meant. "Death the Kid? That's strange! I wonder what the Hay that means.. Hey! If he's a kid, maybe he'll want to play! That'd be awesome!" Pinkie thought with a wide grin on her face. She got up and sat in the middle of the dirt road. No ponies seemed to be using it, so she might as well. Only a few minutes later, the human began to wake. Very slowly. He propped his head up, but kept his eyes closed. He then sat up properly and proceeded to crack his knuckles. He put his right hand on the back of his neck. Pinkie couldn't hear what he said, but assumed it was something about a stiff neck considering how he'd slept. He then slowly opened his eyes. What he saw before him surprised him a lot. A pink pony, With giant blue eyes, and a wide smile. Kid's jaw dropped. He assumed he must be dreaming. He knew he never really dreamed, but he guess this must be his first. He closed his jaw, and just looked at the Pink Pony. This was weird "Good Morning Sunshine!! Beautiful day isn't it?! I love it! I can't wait to play with all my friends. But first, I'll have to hang out with you!!" The Pink pony practically flew up and down the road. She bounced so fast back and fourth all Kid would see was a pink flash before she was gone again. He stood up from the bench. This is what a dream is like?! Why would anyone enjoy this? It's freaky and weird. Kid thought as he watched the flashes of pink in front of him. Kid began to walk down the dirt road towards what looked to be towards a city. Pinkie Pie quickly caught up and bounced alongside him. Kid payed little attention to her. He was more focused on figuring out where or what this dream land was. It was interesting to say the least. As Pinkie bounced up and down next to Kid, she kicked little puffs of dirt up. Each puff of dirt got a bit of dust on Kid's nice pants. At first he didn't notice. But when he did. He wanted it to stop. "Hey! I don't know how you're doing that, or hell.. Why you're doing it, but I'd really appreciate it if you would cut it out! You're getting nasty dust on my pants, and I won't tolerate such behavior!," Kid snapped at the Pink pony. She stopped hopping and began to walk next to him instead. She then noticed she really hadn't said much to Kid. Where were her manners?! "So! Kid, Where are you from?! I mean, I've never met a human before. It's kind of weird. But you seem friendly. I'm all for friendly! All I need from all my friends is a smile. Smile's are the world! Don't you think?! I think. Do you like smiling? Of course you do! Everyone does! That's why you and I are going to be the best of friends!," The pink pony managed to say all in one big breath. Kid stopped walking. He then began to slowly step backwards off the dirt road. This pony managed to be even more annoying then his over confident friend Black Star. Not only did she talk, but really fast. and high pitched like. The thing that really worried Kid though was that she knew his name. It just didn't make sense. "Hey! Where are you going!? I have so much to show you, and do with you!" "Ehh.. Look Pink pony. I don't know what's really going on.. or where I am.. But I'd like to figure it out on my own. It'd be plain weird to have a talking pink pony as my partner in investigation. That said. Please kindly leave me to myself. Thanks. Good Trails!," Kid said a bit frazzled as he waved the pony a good bye and walked towards what looked like a farm. It had many neatly arranged trees. It appeared to be an orchard of some sort. He couldn't wait to see what fruits he could find there. ~~~
