//------------------------------// // Well... Shit. // Story: The Worst of a Bad Situation // by NLRscout //------------------------------// Maybe, when I asked 'Where am I?' I should have been more specific. I wanted a town name, or a state or something, and when I got my answer, it wasn't what I was expecting, or wanted to hear. Twilight had explained that I was in a town called ponyville, in some place called Equestria. Now when I had heard Rainbow Dash say Equestria earlier, I just marked it up for the blood loss and head trauma I had at the time, considering I was ACTUALLY talking to talking ponies. So of course when Twilight said that's where we were I laughed and said no really, and she repeated her self with all seriousness. That made me uneasy and I started to get angry. "No seriously, I've lived in Texas all my life and never heard of ponyville or equestria. Where the hell are we?!" "Texas? What is Texas?" Twilight asked, oblivious to the panic rising inside me. "Its in the USA. I take it we are North America?" Twilight just gave me a puzzled look and I snapped at her, "WE ARE STILL ON EARTH RIGHT?!?" Twilight shrunk down to what seemed like half her size and looked scared at my out burst. In a tiny voice I heard her muster out a 'no' and I just sat there dumb founded. How couldn't I be on earth? Am I dead? When I wrecked did I go into a coma? Was I teleported here? What is this place? There were so many questions racing through my mind, and I had answers to none of them. So I did what any rational person would do. I slowly, carefully, stood up. Pushed my way past Pinkie Pie and Rarity. Opened the door, and took off running. It wasn't to long into my trying to run away from my problems, literally, that I realised that my leg hurt like a son ofa bitch. Looking down at the blood soaked bandage on my calf, I felt sick. Not just because of the blood, but because of the situation I was put in. Thrown somewhere completely foreign, and expected to survive. I mean my life wasn't the best back home, but it was starting to look brighter, considering I had a job and an apartment. Not to mention my sweet ass vespa, that's probably completely destroyed. While I was running, it hit me that I had no idea where I was, and I was probably scaring the shit out of the other ponies in the town. I'd be kind of scared to see a 6 foot 2 bi pedal creature running at you when most ponies are only around 4 feet tall. I stopped and took a look around. All the ponies that had been out and about seconds before I came blitzing into what looked like a market, were huddled and hiding underneath their stands. I apparently scared one pony so bad he was shivering and from the puddle he was lying in, let's just say I hope he was just selling lemonade. All that aside, my nerves still frayed and me still being in shock of the situation, I looked for the fastest way out of that town. I look to the west and see a pathway that looks to lead straight out of this nut house and back into the stupid forest that tried to eat me. I'd rather be alone with my thoughts than get eaten so I decided against that. I looked to the east, and that would put me back at the library, which I didn't want to do right then. I looked north, and that was just the town square. With there only being one other direction left, my decision was made for me as I trudged along the path, not bothering to run anymore. I just needed a quiet place to rest my head for a while and escape this unreal reality.
