Too Many Voices, Dammit!

Insane Magical Genius

A pony was sitting in a large room that he particularly didn't enjoy. He looked up at the wall that was covered in nice plushy cushions. He turned to the other wall also covered in the nice white plushy cushioning. He laughed again as his mind showed him an image of a eyeball coming out of the wall turning into a Ace of Spades playing card just before exiting.

Why don’t we break out of here already? We could easily escape from this place. Just an invisibility spell and we could walk out home free.

I say we just get rid of the place. They are all worthless lives here. They don’t contribute to this society other than possible soldiers.

“You people always complaining” He said. Wiggling his arms trying to get a bit more comfortable in his jacket.

Hey why don’t we just escape? Really, there are something that’s we can do out there. Good or bad.

He look at the door once more counting the seconds before the orderly would come in and force feed him the medicines. The medicine which had he had learned was slowly losing effect. He felt that he would only loose some of his magical control. The more they gave them him the medicine the more his body was able to resist it and he was given more control of the magic around him. He realized that he was able to use most of the level 3 magic spell. It had been too long since he had stepped out into the fresh air of the world.

The two orderlies came in. One unicorn and a big buff earth pony. The unicorn took out a needle and used his magic to make it levitate.
“Hold him” said the unicorn. The buff pony walked over to him.
“Enough.” The unicorn looked at him. The buff pony gave a wry smile, he looked as though he would enjoy what he thought was coming next.
“Now now, mister genius. You need your meds. Both douses” said the unicorn.
Now we unleash hell.
“My. Name. Is. Magnum Rune. Respect me as your Superior.” He called upon some of the magical power around him, the unicorn look very surprised and scared as he realized what was going on. Magnum Rune said a small incantation and the air became terribly hot.

Kill them kill them both.

Don’t do it. They aren’t worth the magic.

NO. They don’t deserve to live after what they done to us.

Yes but what message will that send to the other ponies. We aren’t killers.

We have killed before.

But that was because they struck first.

Why don’t we just go? We have wasted enough magic as it is.

“Can’t all of you just shut so I can finish and decided what to do?"

Kill them.

Leave ‘em.

Leave.

“Two out of three. Sorry. You have been out voted.” Looked at the orderlies, “You guys are lucky only one of us is a killer.” He altered the incantation, finishing it to become a flame teleportation spell. He didn't have any place he wanted to go. He just wanted off the forsaken rock he was forced to live on. He laughed as the explosion took him away to somewhere he hoped could they could at least follow.

He landed in a strange meadow. The grass was green and the night sky was a bright with stars all around. Magnum Rune was ecstatic, immediately he gave himself a small power incantation and ripped the sleeves from the jacket. There weren't any hoof holes but he didn't care. He just lay down on the ground and looked up at the stars.

The Princess Luna makes these star constellations and can rearrange them nightly. Its actually a very simple spell however it requires an immense amount of magical control and power that only alicorns are given. I find that the magic could be put to better usage.

Indeed. Power should be given to those who deserve it.

And you say we deserve it.

Yes we shall show the world that people can follow their own way of life.

Let the Crazy guy take power and show that the world should change.

Knowing you would, you would probably cause some massive destruction and let the rest pick up from the wreckage.

“Can we shut up and enjoy the sky as it is?” Rune said out loud making sure they heard him. They obligingly shut up and Rune sat there watching the constellations move a fraction per hour. Eventually Magnum began to see the sky darken and he realized that this was the first time in decades he was falling asleep.

Fluttershy was walking around through the meadow that she called her back yard. A couple of squirrels had told her that a strange thing had landed there in a small circle of ashes appear around him. Fluttershy thought that this was strange but she didn't really expect to see anything. Squirrels had to do very much do in the short time of day due to predators so if a squirrel said he had seen something interesting or strange could just be a tree fallen down or a wagon left there by some careless owner. So she took angel and they walked over to the large expanse looking for what the squirrel called strange. During this, Fluttershy was going through a bit of existential crisis.

Rarity had been pressuring her to live out a little and at least go into a couple parties that thrown by Pinky Pie. Yet every time she tried there was something that would scare her or something that would put her off and she would ignore the whole thing and head back home. She was trying hard to get involved as Rarity had brought her along a couple of her escapades but she wouldn’t stay long as something would again disgruntle her into leaving. She felt bad because she knew Rarity was trying hard to get her to be a little more social and have fun when out and about.

“Oh what do I do Angel? I know that she means good but I don’t really want to go to those things. They’re too loud, there are too many people just dancing. And I really don’t want to dance in front of such a large crowd. I just don’t know what to do?” Fluttershy complained to her little friend. Angel as usual was listening but also getting work done. Angel knew that Fluttershy was too nice to burden someone else with her problems and so resorted to dropping them on him to which he could do nothing of. However he knew that this helped somewhat and made it easier for Fluttershy later in the day. He just shrug trying to say ‘you can’t really help being you can you?’

“I guess you’re right but I have to at least be nice about these things. If only I wasn’t so easily scared or was a little bit like Rainbow.” Fluttershy complained more in a hopeful tone. However Angel had stopped listening as he had spotted the ash spot and there was a strange sight there. He jumped onto Fluttershy’s back and pointed to where it was.

“Oh, you found something. OK let’s go see what made the squirrels startled.” Fluttershy agreed. As they got closer they found a pony with a clay colored coat and strangely red mane and tail. It was as if it the color was pulsating. She tore herself away from it and looked fully at the pony. He wasn’t moving which made her worry and he seemed to be wearing some sort of strange jacket. Around him was a small circle of ash, this was a bit scary because it was a perfect circle and she remembered Twilight saying something bad when there are perfect circle of anything since it means magical stuff. She bent down and inspected the pony. There was a faint breathing and his heart beat was going strong. She guessed that something magical had gone wrong and so he was just sleeping. She bent over the pony’s ear and tried to wake the pony up by nudging it and saying "Excuse me sir. Could you please wake up." No response, "Sir, um, I need you to wake up now, your disturbing the wild life." Again, no response. This cycle went on for a couple of minutes as well, Fluttershy getting fractionally louder as well with every attempt. Eventually Angel had a go which consisted of him jumping up and down on the pony’s chest. This didn’t work as well and Fluttershy was getting more worried because this had never happened before. Angel was very good at getting people to wake up or shut up. Not only that, but if some pony was still asleep while a fairly large rabbit jumping on their chest must not be ok.
Fluttershy stopped Angel and bent down to the pony again. ‘The breathing was fine and the so was the heart beat but why isn’t he waking up?’ Fluttershy bent down over the pony and asked, “Please wake up! Are you okay?” It took a while but response came in the form of a large and in-pony snore. Fluttershy jumped back in fright and jumped behind Angel who was also terrified. Once the pony finished that one snore, he exhaled and then rolled over as if he was on the stiff side of the bed. Fluttershy sighed in relief as this meant that the pony wasn’t injured or in any medical danger, just very tired. However she thought that he might need a better bed than the ground cause then he would wake up with a sore back. She called over a bunch of butterflies which helped her carry the poor pony to her house.

Magnum Rune woke up with a jolt. And looked up to see a room that was very appealing and nature-esk.
“Where are we?”

Where are we?

Where are we?

Where are we?
