Toby and Guardbuscus crept slowly through the seemingly empty and unending catacombs of the abandoned Canterlot mine. The guard seemed on edge, mainly due to the fact that they had yet to see any other changelings, but he knew that somewhere in the mines there were bound to be hundreds more.

"Hello once again, audience!" Toby said, repeating his usual intro yet again.

Before he could continue, the Royal Guard, who was walking in front of him, turned around and made a zipping gesture over his mouth. "Keep it down!" he whispered.

Without putting in much thought, Toby retaliated in a yell. “Oh, Would you just let me do my FREAKING INTRO!?!” he screamed.

The guard stopped dead in his tracks. He looked like he was about to say something, but he was quickly drowned out by the echoing sound of buzzing wings and angry hissing. Changelings were coming, hundreds of them.

"Oh God! What have you done, Guardbuscus?!?" Toby demanded.

The guard lost his calm composure and sn/ ped at Toby. "What have I done?" He said in a hushed yell. "What have You done! Don't you hear that sound? Do you know what's even happening?!"

"That is the sound of victory."

The guard raised his voice in frustration, "That's the sound of hundreds of hungry changelings coming to kill us!"

"That is what victory sounds like."

The tunnel in front of them suddenly became pitch black, but it was not because of the absence of light. The tunnel was covered wall-to-wall with changelings. Most of them couldn't even spread their wings because they were packed so tightly. The guard turned around to see the tunnel behind them was already blocked off as well. It was impossible to see where they were coming from, but it seemed like they came from everywhere.

"Well Guardbuscus," Toby said with his eyes fixated on the changeling horde, "the important thing here is not to panic... even though this is your fault."

Several of the changelings curled their lips and hissed at them, others began to growl. They were clearly agressive, but, for some reason, they were not moving any closer to Toby and Guardbuscus. However, they did not appear as if they would remain passive for long.

The guard ran his front hoof on the rocky ground readying himself for a hopeless fight. Meanwhile, Toby took a few steps forward, showing either a considerable amount of bravery or stupidity. "Don't worry." He said. "I got this."

Toby slowly made his way over to the nearest changeling. It was standing on the ground with a hunched posture like an angry cat. All of the changelings were locked in this position, waiting for a sudden movement to rile them up into a fury. Several of them seemed to be 'chatting' amongst themselves through a series of buzzing and hissing.

"What are you doing? You're going to get yourself killed!" The guard said to Toby. He was still speaking in a whisper so that he wouldn't anger the changeling horde.

"Don't you worry your pretty little biscuit!" Toby replied in a much louder tone. "I've done this before... Okay, I just lied, but I'm sure this will work out fine!" When Toby was close enough, he held out his right front leg and the changeling immediately started to back away. "No-no-no, shush-shush-shush! It's all okay." Toby said in a calm tone as he inched closer to it. "You can trust me! Come on! Come here you little cutie!"

The changeling stopped backing away when it was within a few feet of the rest of the horde. Instead, it curled up its teeth and growled at Toby. This tactic clearly didn't work because Toby walked even closer to it and started to pat it on the head. "Hey, I'm Toby." He said casually, much to the confusion of the onlooking guard.

We're surrounded by them and he's trying to make small talk! Nobody is actually this stupid, right? The guard thought to himself as he watched. He looked around at the changelings and could tell that they were all probably thinking the same thing.

"What's your name, little guy?" Toby asked. The only response he got was a violent hiss.

"That's a pretty name!" Toby said enthusiastically. "Do you come here often? This is a nice little... murder tunnel you have going on here. I mean, it could clearly use a little more-"

The changeling had had enough and bit into Toby's outstretched leg as he spoke. "GAH!" Toby yelled as he flung his leg around with the creature still clinging to it. His scream echoed throughout the mine. "What the hell!? STOP KILLING ME!!! YOU SUCK! GET IT OFF ME, GUARDBUSCUS! USE YOUR PONY MAGIC!"

The other changelings took the struggle as a perfect cue to start their assault. They jumped off the walls of the cave and quickly swarmed around Toby and the guard until they could see nothing but black.

"No... stop it!" Toby demanded as he turned around in all directions and realized that the swarming changelings were slowly enveloping around him. The only thing ge could see was their white teeth and blue eyes. "You guys are way too freaking violent! WHAT BUTTON DO I PRESS TO MAKE YOU STOP!!!"

The changelings stopped circling Toby and darted at him from all directions like a swarm of angry bees. Nothing could be seen or heard of the guard. Toby gave a few defensive kicks, but they were completly useless as several changelings enveloped around him and lifted him up to the roof of the cave.

"What are you doing? Stop it!" Toby demanded as he was helplessly flown deeper into the mine. He tried to struggle free, but all of his legs were held firmly in place by his capturers. "I was being nice to you! YOU GUYS SUCK AT SMALL TALK! YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG! YOU GUYS NEED BETTER SOCIAL SKILLS!"

With Toby unable to resist, and the guard nowhere to be found, the small group of changelings that were carrying Toby continued to carry him through the mine. "I can't even move! NONE OF THE BUTTONS ARE DOING ANYTHING! Is this a mini-movie? THIS MINI-MOVIE SUCKS! WHY IS PONYLAND SO VIOLENT? I DON'T LIKE THIS GAME ANYMORE!"

As Toby continued to complain, a green light began to grow in size at the end of the tunnel. Wherever he was being taken, they were getting very close.

"OH MY GOD! I HAVE TO FREAKING PAUSE IT!" Toby yelled, then he continued in a strangely calm tone. "Thanks for watching! Click the annotation in the top right to watch the next video! Bless your face. If you sneezed during, or were captured by socially awkward murder bugs during this video, bless you! Peace off. BOOP!"
