Sleeping on my side always felt right to me somehow. I don’t know why, it just does. That’s why I found it weird that I was sleeping on my back for I could never really fall asleep or sleep well on my back, again I don’t know why, I just can’t.
However a loud slam caused me to fully wake up from my somewhat half sleeping state.
While slowly sitting up, I rubbed my eyes while thinking about the weird dream I was having. Something about waking up in apple orchard somewhere and meeting a bunch of MLP characters but now who are human beings instead of ponies while being told that you are some sort of all powerful being that’s on the same level as their princess and the worst part was that I thought it was all real.
“Note to self, never watch My Little Pony before going to sleep while half hangover, ever again” I lazy groaned, as I finished rubbing my eyes.
With my eyes slowly opening, I should have seen a dull grey carpet floor, a 42 inch size TV with various video gaming consoles hooked up to it, controllers to said consoles and other little things that should of been in my field of view as I sat up on my lounge. Instead, I see wooden floors, a wardrobe, a small desk, a large bookcase and it seems that I am sleeping on a bed.
However before I could think anymore on the matter, my head started to throb like crazy and it felt like it was coming from the back of skull. I slowly moved my hand up to back of my head and started feeling around for the source of the throbbing that was giving me a headache until I found a lump that had swelled up to the size of an 50 cent piece. “Ok, where the hell did you come from?” I asked myself in regards to the new lump on the back of my head. I slowly got up and while making sure not to fall over myself as I made a beeline to the door of the room. Once there, I am hoping that I just fell asleep at my mate’s house and that I just woken up in one of his spare rooms and that from me leaving his house up to the point when were Twilight blasted me with that spell, was all just a dream.
So I opened the door and…
It is the main room of Twilight library.
“Well…” I said before the other word slowly rolled off of my tongue “… Fuck!” for that was all I could say at this point in time. Everything I thought that was a dream did happen and the last thing I remembered was being told that I was an Avatar, losing control of my magic and getting knocked the fuck out by Twilight with some type of spell.
Well, desperate times, call for desperate measures I thought to myself as I got down on my knees and closed my eyes while looked up to the wooden ceiling.
“God, are you there? It’s me, Vincent Pleasant. Look this is an odd situation that I’m kind of in” I had to laugh at what I just said, knowing that an ‘odd situation’ is putting it very lightly. “I know I wasn’t much of a ‘religious guy’ and to be honest who is these days but I still believe in you, that’s better than nothing right? But back to my situation that I’m in. I somehow ended up in a universe where all of the My Little Pony characters are now humans and to honest with myself, I really really really like to go back to my own universe where my family and friends are, but mostly where everything makes sense… Well more sense anyway and plus all my stuff is there. And if you sent me back immediately after I finished leaving you this message” I let out a troubled sigh since I already know how to make it up to him and I didn’t like this idea one bit.
“I will read and watch all the Twilight books and movies… in a row… Look, I know I sweared that I wouldn’t read or watch any of that crap, but… I’m really really desperate here and as an added bonus, I will not complain about how the book series is complete and utter crap written by a year 11 Standard English student with a thesaurus or how the movies are just eye candy for the any female and they really don’t give two shits about any of the female characters on screen and other things I won’t say here. So, how about it, will you help me out?” I finished asking him.
I waited for about minute or two before I opened my right eye to see if I was back in my universe in my lounge room and… I wasn’t. I’m still in the same place, same universe.
Opening up my other eye, let out deep long sigh before looking back up at the wooden ceiling and accidentally shouted out to it “WELL SCREW YOU THEN!” before I relies that I had just given away that I was up and about. You bloody idiot.
After waiting for one of the doors [or hidden doors] to bust open or even hear footsteps quickly moving around up or down stairs [if she has them] to come and meet me. However after waiting for a minute or so, there was nothing. I didn’t hear any footsteps or other doors hidden from view opening and or closing.
“Maybe she didn’t hear me” I said to myself, thinking it’s kind of weird that if Twilight knocked me out, that either she or even Spike would be here to prevent anything else from happening and more than importantly to keeping an eye on me so I don’t try and escape.
However this may be a blessing in disguised since either: A] Twilight and or Spike are not here, so that means I can leave without any problems or B] if Twilight or Spike are here, then they didn’t hear me earlier so all I need to do is leave quietly and quickly.
But before I can leave for Camelot, I need my grab my stuff since the last thing I want to do is leave behind nearly over $2000 dollars’ worth of stuff and all the work I have done in this universe. Ok, so my bag still should be on a table in this room, but when I looked over at all the four tables in the room there wasn’t any of my stuff on them. So, Twilight put all my stuff back into my bag and decides to hide it from me, she must have done it to keep me here since she knows that I can’t leave without it… Clever girl. But is she clever enough to not hide it in the same place as before? I somewhat asked myself.
Walking towards the door to the kitchen, I slowly and quietly opened the door a crack in case anyone was already in there. Looking through the crack, I saw that there was no one was inside of the kitchen. Opening the door all the way, revealed a basic kitchen with enough space for a small table with four chairs around it, a bench with two sinks along with a few draws built on the front of it, a window built over where the sink is, a fridge and a couple of cupboards around the room. However my bag wasn’t in here either. Ok, so Twilight is smart enough to not hide it in the same place as last time, she must have hidden it in one of the other rooms.
However as I was about to leave the kitchen my stomach let out a loud rumble. I had forgotten that I still hadn’t eaten anything today and being in a kitchen didn’t help me out much either. Now normally I can skip breakfast and sometimes lunch if I’m too busy working or just too caught up in playing a game, but I normally still have something to eat by now whether it’s something small like an apple or something big like a microwave meal or take out. But I can’t really blame myself for not eating anything today since I’m in another universe and found out that I’m no longer even conceded human. However another question had popped into my head, Should I just raid Twilight kitchen without asking her? I thought on it for a minute before coming to the conclusion that I should and not just because I’m starving but to research to see if there universe has the same type of food as mine. Not including fruit and vegetables of course.
With that dilemma solved and out of the way, I proceeded over to Twilight’s white fridge and started having a look inside.
The food inside Twilight’s fridge actually looked pretty normal. From what I can tell she has some fruit, mostly some mixed color apples, bananas and a fruit salad of some type. Besides the fruit, there is some of the normal stuff you normally find in a fridge such as: milk, water, butter and a block of cheese. However there is some stuff that I couldn’t really identify as to what it is. In the door of the fridge where I found the milk and water earlier, is a bottle of what I think is juice but the color seem to be off as it is crossed between a green and yellow color, if I had to take a guess it could be home made juice. Next to the juice is from the looks of it, some type of dark green soft drink. The only reason as to why I think it is some type soft drink due to fizz in the bottle and that I also shook it up, however I started to doubt my theory since after I shook the bottle there was something hitting the sides of the bottle, it sounded solid and they looked like shards from something. Luckily for me, I didn’t try to taste it, even more so since I just notice that on the bottle is a label with Spike name on it. The last thing I want to do is drink something that is meant for a dragon… or whatever hell he is here. The last thing I notice is a large jar filled with… something. I don’t what in it but its rainbow colored. I thought it was one of those things with the rainbow colored sand but why put it in the fridge. Whatever it is it was contently shifting it color but keeping its rainbow-ness, if that is even a word.
Deciding to move on, I found something that took me by surprise, meat. Now to be fair, this might have being a surprise if Twilight was a pony… and so was everyone else for that matter. Well maybe not, dragons do eat meat so if I was in that universe it could have been for Spike. But I’m just glad that there is some type of meat here and it looks like bacon and it’s cooked. Cold but cooked I noted to myself. I grab a strip of beacon from the plate it was sitting on and took a bite out of it. I slowly chewed on the bit of bacon in case it tasted off for some reason and ready myself to spit it out. However it tasted like bacon from my universe, if not slightly better. I couldn’t put my finger on it why it tasted better; maybe it wasn’t cooked in veggie oil or deep fried.
While taking another bite out of the bacon, I continued looking throughout the fridge to see the food that Twilight had. Sadly though there wasn’t much else besides some muffins [must be from Pinkie Pie], a few vegetables [some I recognized luckily enough] and something in a large pot which looked like stew but I could be wrong through as for all I could know, it could be an experiment of Twilight’s.
After finishing the strip of bacon, I decided to grab one of the green apples and closed the door of the fridge. Before I started eating the apple, I quickly when over to the sink, grab a glass cup that was already in there, fill it up with water from the tap and downed the water in one go.
I started eating the apple as I left Twilight’s kitchen and started looking for where she hid my bag. Ok, so besides the kitchen, the bathroom, Twilight’s study and that room I woke up in. There the only rooms that I know of and can find. However, I can cross off the kitchen and the bedroom that I was in, as to where my bag is. Which then leaves either the study, the bathroom or one of the other hidden rooms in this damn house, I thought to myself as it dawned upon me that it very likely that I may have to leave my bag behind and come back for it later which would delay me plans somewhat, since if Twilight is out of the house she would most likely be back soon and it’s very likely that she might have the rest of the mane six in tow. Or would that be the ‘main’ six now since they are humans now and not ponies? I’ll think about it later when I’m not here, hell she might even not bring them at all and just grab the guards or the cops or whatever, I told myself and getting back to the matter at hand. I better look in Twilight’s study before I forget where hell it is and if my bag is not there, I’ll try the bathroom before I start trying to find any of the other hidden rooms.
Now from what I remember, Twilight’s study is near the front door and that the button for the door is on top of the bookcase, all I got to do is feel around for it. While walking towards where I thought was the study, I noticed a small table by the front door with a note on it. “Was there a note there before?” I asked out aloud to no one, while racking my brain to see if I remember it being there before I was knocked out. However, when I couldn’t remember seeing it, so I decided to walk over to see what the note is about. Maybe it’s just a list of rules for the library or a sign in sheet or even the new opening times for the library.
But it wasn’t. It was about me.
-Spike
I have gone out to Sugarcube Corner to grab Pinkie Pie, be back soon.
Should Rarity, Applejack and or Rainbow Dash be waiting outside or arrive after you read this, please let them in and tell them that I will be back in a few minutes with Pinkie.
And whatever you do, neither you nor the others cannot go into the guest room on the ground floor or my study for any reason until I get back!
I repeat, do not go or let anyone into that guest room or my study until I get back with Pinkie Pie!
-Twilight
PS. It’s your turn to empty the bins.
It was luckily that I could read most of the note since it looked rushed and some of the ink still wasn’t dried yet either. Oh shit, which means that either anyone of the main six [I decided to call them that, it makes more sense that way] or Spike is going to be here any minute. Re-reading the note in cased I missed something and I did. I found that Fluttershy wasn’t mention in the note for some reason, but at the moment I don’t care, since for all I could know that she is sick or something. For some reason and I can take a guess why Twilight had mention it to not go into her study. My bag. Also I didn’t see any bins while in the kitchen, they must be under sink or something.
With the note still in my hand, I decided to fold it up and put it in my jacket pocket. With the note gone, either Twilight would think that Spike read the note and just went off to his room [since I woke in a bedroom in this house, I believe that Twilight and Spike have rooms here too, just hidden at the moment] or that Spike would think that Twilight is either busy studying or something along those lines and that he has no other chores to do.
Ok, so the first thing I need to do is grab my bag which should be in the study if the note is correct. Next, I better close that bedroom door, so if Twilight comes back she will think nothing is wrong for the time being, I started planning in my head. While I was planning, a thought crossed my mind, something that I haven’t paid much attention to since waking up
My magic.
What triggered my magic the last time? I wanted to try and remember how it happen, however I immediately stop in case whatever it was would trigger my magic again whether it will be the same type of magic as last time or not. I rather not risk it. I’ll worry about it later, as long as I don’t want to use magic I should be fine. I think. Through I should find a book or something about, just in case.
Once I got in front of the bookcases as to where I thought Twilight’s study is and luckily for me, one of the beliefs of being tall is being able to see over tall objects that no one else can see. The bookcase on my right has the button I’m looking for and I quickly pushed it.
The bookcase opened like it did last time, swinging inwards and from where I am standing I saw my bag on Twilight desk and my trench coat somewhat lazily hanging on one of her smaller bookshelves. It was then that I relies that I wasn’t wearing my $200 dollar trench coat. I can’t believe I forgot about my coat and come to think of it, I was going to leave without it when I was about to storm out earlier after I argued with Twilight, what the hell is wrong with me today. Picking up my trench coat, I quickly put it on and then moved over to my bag and started checking through it in case anything was missing. If I was in Twilight shoes, I would of taken a few things out of the bag in case the owner found it, meaning that they would have to stick around to get their stuff back or cause them to come back to get it, as I was thinking this I had just finished checking my bag and found that nothing was missing, luckily. Finding that I had left my laptop on, I quickly turned it off without shutting it down properly before placing my bag back onto my shoulder. I finishing off the apple and throwing it into the small trash bin in the room before and I headed back out into the main room of library.
Closing the study door behind me, I then quickly moved over to the room that I woke up in [I think that this is guest room that Twilight was talking about in her note] and closed that door as well.
Ok, so with the note for Spike now gone, my trench coat and bag back in my possession and both the study and guest rooms doors now closed, all I got to do now is walk out of the front door and get to the train station without being seen by the Main six… yeah that would be easier said than done.
Walking up to the front door, I saw that next to it was a small window with some cream colored curtains on each side and an open/close sign in the middle of it with the ‘closed’ side facing outward. Once I was up against the door, I peeked out of the window from behind one of the small curtains to make sure that none of the main six was out there anywhere. Can’t see them, I better leg it to the train station before they know I’m gone.
Looking at the door handle, I took hold of it and turned all the way. I guessed it wasn’t locked after all, I thought before pushing against the wooden surface.
The door didn’t budge.
I tried pushing against the door again, but it still wouldn’t budge. Ok, so Twilight did lock the door and since I don’t see a back door around here. Looks like I have to go out through a window, preferably one that I could fit through. My best bet is to go to the back room of the library and go out through that big window as the other alternative would be to find the bookcase that is hiding Twilight’s stairs that lead up to the next level and just climb down the tree. To be honest I don’t like that idea much.
Walking away from the front door to the back room of the library, I stood in front of the large window and start examining it. From the looks of it, the window has a lock on the top of it wooden frame with a small handle on the bottom of it. Stepping over the lounge and kneeling on the window ledge, I got one of my hands around the old brass handle and tried pulling up on it, but it didn’t budge. I took a second look at the window just to make sure that I wasn’t opening it the wrong way, but I wasn’t. It is one of those types of windows that when you pull them up that they lock into place to keep the window open. I tried pulling the window up again just to make sure that it wasn’t stuck in place, seeing how the window does look old with the paint on the handle of the window and around the wooden frame looks to be faded and flaked a bit. Even using both hands the window still wouldn’t open.
I run back to the kitchen, seeing how I remember that there was a window in there and try my luck with that one. Once I got back into the kitchen, I saw that while the window in there wasn’t that tall, it is wide enough for me to just get through it. The design of this window isn’t the same as the one in the back room; this one is a bit simpler. The overall design is that they are locked by a hook keeping the two windows in place and that you push the small windows outwards. The lock on the window is the only thing that’s keeping me from sweet freedom. After pushing up the hook holding the windows in place, I then proceed to push open the windows but the windows refuse to open for me. I decide trying to push on the windows harder this time to the point where I stopped since the counter I’m lending against started digging into my hip.
“Ok, enough of this bullshit! A motherfucking window is not going to stop me from my freedom!”, as I noticed that there is a small cooking pot in the sink that I missed. I grabbed the pot and using it as a make shift club; I smash it against the window hoping that it would break the glass, the wooden frame or both so I can get out. However instead, the pot bounce off the window and due to the amount of power I put into the swing of said pot I was holding, I landed flat on my ass on the kitchen floor. Looking up at the window I had just tried to break, I noticed that briefly the window had a magenta sheen to it before it disappeared. After I got off the floor with pot in hand which has a dent on the side of it. I lightly tap the window again with the pot; the magenta sheen returned and disappeared just as quickly.
“So that explains why I can’t leave and it also explains as to why no one is keeping an eye on me. Because Twilight’s magic is keeping me in here and if I had to guess, she is the only one that can deactivate it, which means one of two will happen” I said out loud talking to myself, as I put the small and dented pot back into the sink “Either: A] I just wait here until Twilight and the rest of the Main six and get asked a million of the same questions over and over again before I get let go or B] once Twilight deactivates her magic, just rush out the door and keep running” I continued ,as I just thought up another thing I could try. “Or option C] Hide in one of the rooms, must be one with a big enough window and where no one can see me and once Twilight deactivates her magic, just climb out of the window and just run”
Deciding to leave the kitchen and walked back out into the main library, while thinking over those options in my head again in more detail. If I stayed and answered their questions I will end up losing massive amount of time and end up being forced to stay here under lock and key if they don’t like my answers they get out of me. If I try and run once the magic is deactivated, someone might get hurt. More likely me in this case than anyone else and if I try sneaking out, I have to hide somewhere close to the door and wait for Twilight to get back, then hopefully get a window open and get out quietly, if I fail then all types of hell is going to break lose. Either way, any of these ideas could fail or backfire in some way but in the end, I got no choice and I need to pick one of them.
Looking around the large open room in search for some type of answer, I notice the table where my blacken hand paint laid along with the brown encyclopedia that I was somewhat browsing through earlier. Walking up to the table, I looked at both these with unease eyes. I ran my one of hands over the black hand paint that I caused some time ago and look at the underside of my hand. Seeing the black smudge across my upturned hand and something stirred in me… fear.
Fear that I can’t keep my magic under control even though I don’t know how I had being maintaining control since I woken up. The type of fear that if I end up hurting or even killing someone due to fact that I couldn’t keep my magic under some form of control or even yet, the fear that I might end up being killed myself because of my magic and my lack of control, whether its someone else kills me because of it or I end up killing myself on accident. I quickly grab the encyclopedia and pulled it across the paint to cover it up, while quickly trying to rub off the black ash that is on my hand.
Honestly, these thoughts scare the living crap out of me. This is one of the main reasons why I want to go back home, where everything makes sense, more or less.
While I manage to get most of the black ash off of my hand. I thought about the encyclopedia now in front of me. From what Twilight demonstrated earlier about this book, I could find out all about these other ‘races’? Is that the right word I’m looking for, races? Eh, it will do for the time being. I could find out what other abilities these other races have. I ended my line of thought, as I turn the cover of the encyclopedia over and looked at the table of contents again.
-Earthen: pages 5 – 30
- Magi: pages 31 – 70
- Avian: 71 – 100
-Avatar: 101
Looking at the page number for the Avatar page made me chuckle a bit. I flicked over to page 101, expecting the rest of the book to have tons of info on Avatars about their abilities, how they become an Avatar whether it was by birth or that they were made this way by some other type of method and maybe some other types of information that would be useful to me in some way. Once I got to the page however that was all I found, a page. Just one page about Avatars. I quickly started speed reading through it only to find that it ended halfway down the page. They couldn’t even give me a page of information about these people for fuck shakes! I commented in my head.
It also didn’t help that the half of page of information, didn’t hold anything of much value. Basically to sum up the information on the page its states: that no one knows where Avatars came from and that the only two Avatars that this book has recorded are Celestia and Luna.
If I take a guess and this is just me guessing here, that this was written before Luna was banished, otherwise that it might as well just mention Celestia by herself.
Other than that, the book starts talking about some eye witness accounts of seeing Celestia or Luna or both of them doing something that couldn’t be explained. Besides using magic, flying and rising the moon and sun that is.
Most of the things said in here ranging from: one of the sisters breaking a sword in half with their bare hands, to an account that when something with name that I couldn’t half pronounce a dracon- something had bitten and almost torn off Celestia arm. But after the fight was over, her arm along with other injures that she manage to received during the fight healed itself within a few minutes. Though the book does says that at the time this was published that no healing spell was that advanced. I just think that she was just using a more advanced type of healing magic that she kept for herself or because her level of magic is greater than a normal Magi.
These accounts just go on and on, but the last few lines on the page ended with a theory of sorts. The theory states that while these Avatars possessed abilities that come from other races: Earthen, Magi and Avian, it is also likely that those same abilities have been enhanced. It even listing a few more examples of this, from five fully grown Earthen men couldn’t lifted a giant bolder from blocking a road, while Luna did it with one hand and to another where again Luna managed to out run one of the fastest Avian flyers in the world at the time. The theory ends saying that it is also likely that these Avatars possessed their own set of unique abilities that none of the other races have, however it doesn’t go into detail about what their unique abilities are. The author must of tried asking either one or both of them about their past and a number of other questions, but from the looks of things and the lack of pages in this section, it sounds like that both Celestia and Luna turn away the author to protect whatever knowledge they have on Avatars.
“But why keep this sort of thing a secret? It doesn’t make a--” however before I could finish, there was a knock at the door.
I quickly ruled out that it wasn’t Twilight or Spike since they wouldn’t knock on their own door, so it has to be someone from the main six, but who? However on the other hand it doesn’t really matter since whoever it is can’t get inside. But this means that Twilight would be back soon, so I need to decide what to do now.
I decided to rule out staying back and getting questioned. So that leaves me with rushing the door once Twilight opens it and leg it or trying to sneak out through a window once she deactivates the spell.
If what the book said is true then I can just out run anyone that comes after me. Hell, even Rainbow Dash wouldn’t be able to keep—another knock interrupted my thoughts, but this helped me relies something that I forgot to take into account. How the hell do I even move that fast? Do I say a magic word to active my super speed? Do I just use magic to make myself go faster or do I just run and I just go super-fast on my own like the Flash? I was thinking about doing a quick run from where I am to where the front door is, but I decided against it, in case I did activate my super speed which I’ll end up smashing into the magic force field that’s protecting the door and maybe break every bone in my body. With a one in three shot to trigger my super speed and taking into account that it has being a few years since I was last fit enough to run longer than what I can do now. I decided to not try and run idea, plus if super speed doesn’t kick in, than either Rainbow Dash will catch me or I’ll end up on the ground dry heaving and getting caught anyway.
A third knock was heard from the wooden door and leaving me with little to no other choice, I have to sneak out. The best place would be from Twilight’s study, since the room is near enough to the front door so I can hear when Twilight gets back and the room has a window in it if I remember correctly which I can use to escape once she deactivate the spell. However with the window near the front door looking directly at the bookcases near Twilight study, if anyone one look through it while I’m opening or closing the bookcase, it will cause them to look inside the study once Twilight gets back. It’s a risk, but I need to see who is out there so I can plan this out properly.
I moved quietly over to the front door staying behind it the whole time I’m moving. Once I got there, I crouch down behind it and slowly moved over to the window near it. Staying behind the small cream curtains again, I peeked outside seeing who out of the main six is out there.
The woman standing out there in front of the door is dressed in white long shelve business shirt which was tuck into her black skirt that stop just under her knees on her long legs. Whatever you could see of her legs are covered by a pair of dark brown stocking and her shoes were just simple ladies black slip-on shoes that just covered her feet. I guess since it would be easier to move about in than a pair of high heels. Judging her height, she could be the same height as Twilight or just a bit taller than her; however it is a bit hard to tell from here. Other than that her nails are painted with some type of dark red with her lipstick matching it and that her make-up looks like she just got a shovel put all of her make-up on the spade and hit herself in the face with it judging with how thickly layered it looks. This woman hair to best describe it is either naturally straight or has being straighten since at the ends of her shoulder length royal purple hair has been rounded so they curve up continuing in a spiral. It was no surprise who this woman is, the fanshionista Rarity.
Rarity is standing outside in front of the door looking a bit impatient for some reason; maybe she didn’t know that Twilight wasn’t at home or maybe she just didn’t like to be kept waiting, who knows. The fanshionista let out a huff and knocked louder on the front door this time. While Rarity was knocking, I notice two small items I had missed earlier, since they are on her right side of her body, out of my line of slight.
First on Rarity’s right hand, there is a ring on her middle finger with a sliver metal band and a medium size sapphire sitting in the middle of the ring. I quickly check to see if she had any other jewelry on her that I could make out, but I couldn’t see any. The other item I notice was hanging off of Rarity right shoulder, a small white purse. After waiting another minute Rarity went to her purse and started digging around in it, after that she pulled out a mobile phone and started messing around with it, before she moved the phone up to her ear. However it didn’t take long before Rarity put her phone back into her purse while letting out an annoyed sigh.
With Rarity being a few feet away from the front door and having line of slight of the window next to it, I can’t safely move to the Twilight’s study without her seeing me. She wouldn’t simplify leave since Twilight had wanted her here, so something must distracted her just long enough for me to move or she move away far enough so she can’t see the front window anymore.
A few minutes when by before the sound of a truck hit my ears. To be honest this wasn’t much of a surprise since if they have mobile phones, TV’s and other types of electronic devices. Than why won’t they have cars?
I tried to see where the truck was coming from, however since I’m trying to not draw attention to myself; I just waited until the truck came into my view as I watched it park across the street from the library. This caused Rarity to turn around to face towards the truck.
Now, cars are not really my thing. I don’t know how to fix one if it breaks down or how to change a flat, the most I know about a car is how to drive an automatic, putting fuel into it and various other little things that everyone knows how to do. If I need my car fixed, I would just take it to one of my uncles or my brother in-law who are mechanics and just pay them for it.
So with the truck parked across the street, the best way to describe it, old. The truck looked like those old style farm trucks you seen from 20’s onwards with the back of the farm truck having a flat bed with maybe wooden supports holding up the dark green canvas cover that would protect whatever is under it from the weather. While the front of the truck was colored with some type of brown or it could be red paint, but it doesn’t matter since most of the paint is or has being flaking off and there is rust in random spots.
After the truck turned off it engine off, Rarity started walking over to it as if she knows the driver. While she walked over to the truck, the doors on it opened and two women jumped out. One is dressed in light blue sleeveless sports top, and light blue sports track pants with matching colored joggers and medium length rainbow hair. While the other one is dressed in a red checkered flannel shirt, worn blue jeans with a brown Stetson and a pair of brown cowboy boots, while having her blond hair in a ponytail. Unfortunately I know who these two women are; Rainbow Dash and Applejack, and for some reason they have random bits of hay sticking out of their clothes.
With Rarity walking over to greet her two friends, this is now the best time and maybe the only time to get in Twilight’s study. I quickly moved from where I ‘m hiding to the bookcase hiding Twilight study, hitting the button on the case and wishing that it opened faster as it slowly opened. Deciding not to wait for the bookcase to fully open itself, I pushed myself through a gap that was just big enough for me and my bag to fit through and when I got through, I grab the door handle while it is still moving and closed the door shut.
I stayed close to the door, waiting to hear anything that might let me know if I was seen. My heart is racing at the moment due to the thought of being discovered by those three outside. I didn’t see if any of them were looking towards the window as I was moving, but I just have that feeling that one of them might have. It also didn’t help that I can’t really hear what’s going on outside with Rarity, Applejack and Rainbow Dash since the study is too far away from the truck and it’s more than likely that they are not going to be waiting near the front door.
While up against the door, I look over at the study window just to see if I can fit through it without any problem. The window here is similar to the one in the kitchen in design and shape, so I should be able to get out through that way.
All I can do now is just wait.
I thought about what I am going to do next and now since I have my bag back. I need to get to the train station, get on the train to Camelot without being seen or find some way to get money for a train ticket, beg more than likely. Once I’m in the city, I need to get to Camelot castle, talk to Celestia and somehow get her to help me get home. I guess the plan hasn’t changed that much, huh? I asked myself.
Minutes rolled by as I waited for Twilight to show up, but it felt like forever and looking out the window, it is starting to get dark. Hopefully the train station doesn’t close at night.
Another few minutes went by before I decided to just sit down on the wooden floor against the door, “God, how long does it take for someone to go out and grab someone then bring them back here?” I quietly asked out aloud and slightly bored of waiting.
“HURRY UP SLOW POKE AND UNLOCK YOUR DOOR!” someone shouted from outside.
The hell was that? I thought as whoever was shouting, awoken me from my bored state.
“COME ON TWILIGHT, I GOT TO CONVINCE HATTER TO LET ME THROW HIM THAT WELCOME PARTY!” the same person shouted again, as I figured out who it is.
“Shit its Pinkie, which means that Twilight shouldn’t be too far behind her, I got to get ready” I told myself quietly while getting off of the floor, but staying next to the study door, listening and waiting for that front door to open. During this time, I made sure that I had everything and quickly started checking my pockets and my bag just in case anything slipped out, luckily nothing did. The last thing I want to do is to delay my plans and come back for whatever I left behind.
Something was happening outside around the front door. I heard a loud thump against the wooden the front door before the sound of a key jigging around in a lock. This is it, get ready, I was mentally telling myself, as I moved away from the study door and up to the window.
With the sound of footsteps echoing off the wooden floor in the other room, I unhooked the window and started pushing against one of the two windows, just to test to see if the spell has been deactivate. The window I’m pushing against started slowly moving outwards compare to the kitchen window where it just stayed in the one place. I smile to myself knowing that I’m about to leave this tree house, I also would of let out a shout of victory as well if it didn’t mean that I would get caught by the women in the next room. So I kept myself quite… mostly I did do some victory humming though.
Fully pushing both windows open, I felt the flesh cool late afternoon air upon my face, it felt wonderful. Before I climbed out of window I made sure that my bag was properly secured on me, so I adjusted the bag strap from hanging loosely on my shoulder to having it around my head and my right arm through the loop and lastly tightening the bag strap so it hanging securely on me so it not likely to fall off should I need to start running.
With the sound of a door closing somewhere [more than likely the front door], I placed both of my hands on the window ledge and pushed myself up high enough to get my right leg out of the window. Once I pulled my other leg up and over the ledge, sitting on window ledge is easy, though sitting in the right spot where I wasn’t sitting on my balls, that’s another thing altogether.
From where I’m sitting, the drop to the ground on the outside is about seven or eight feet which is do able in my book, luckily. Plus there are some brushes to break my fall under me, that’s something at least.
Siding off the window ledge, the ground and brushes was speeding up to meet my feet. Until I got violently coat hanged from my bag strap which is now stuck around my neck chocking me as I’m now hanging out the window. The only thing I could do is just let out a choking gargle, while trying to get both of my hands pull the bag strap away from my throat. However with my right arm being pulled back above my head due to the bag strap, that arm is now basically useless to help since that hand can’t reach it and the only thing that is preventing me from being turned into a real life version of hangman is my other hand only just managed to slightly pull the strap away from my neck. With my left hand holding the tighten bag strap away from my throat barely, I tried pulling it further away from me so I can just slip out of it, fall to the ground and quickly grab the bag, but I need both hands to be able to pull the strap out far enough to slip out.
Only two thoughts are going through my head at the moment as I am dangling out here in the open, almost being choked to death. The first one is that if anyone sees me like this, then I’m screwed since they will more than likely call the cops or the guard or whatever the hell they have here. While the other thought is simply just this; Can this fuckin day get any worse?
