Ask Chatterjoy

Chattercorn

Chatterjoy felt like she could fly forever. Granted she was a pegasus and could already fly, but she felt the stamina and strength of an earth pony flowing through her veins. She even felt that she could cast a spell and be anywhere in the world she would want to be. She could visit the beach if she wanted to!

Her mother, Smartfeather always said that she could do whatever she wanted if she wished for it really hard and put in the effort to accomplish it. Chatterjoy decided to take her mother's advice and she wished. And she wished. And she wished. The pegasus closed her eyes and continue to chant her wish in her mind like a little prayer. She was concentrating so hard she almost forgot to flap, but she managed to correct herself.

A yellow flash enveloped her being and when the pegasus opened her eyes she was standing on the beach. She felt the sand beneath her hooves. She had never been on a beach before! She was so happy that it came true. She didn't even care how she managed to get here. Her friends were already at the beach playing with a ball.

"Hey guys!" She called. She began to trot quickly over to their location. Her feet almost tangled with themselves, but she managed to make it to them. Her friends gawked at her and whispered amongst themselves. "So...can I play? What are you playing?" Chatterjoy asked. She felt awkward with them just staring at her.

"Well, just don't pop the ball," Stargazer said. He was an earth pony and Jazzy's coltfriend. She didn't think he like her much. Truth be told she didn't either. He was nice, but she could get so jealous.

"I won't," Chatterjoy replied, "How would I even do that anyway?" The others looked at themselves again before turning to stare weirdly at Chatterjoy. "Well are we gonna play or not?" Chatterjoy asked stamping a hoof on the ground nervously.

"We were just wondering how you found us," Godwin stated, "We didn't tell you that we would be here." Godwin was a griffon and he usually stated what he thought when he deemed it necessary, but this time he seemed to accidentally spill the beans.

"I just wished to be at the beach with my friends really really hard and it happened!" Chatterjoy exclaimed.

Wordplay slapped Godwin and then turned to Chatterjoy. "Truth be told Chatterjoy we don't want hang out with an Alicorn. You'll just attract the negative attention more than usual."

"What? Is that what you guys all think of me?"

None of her friends gave her reply.

"I'm not even an Alicorn. Don't leave me!"

Chatterjoy screamed and then fell out of her bed. "Oh Celestia! That was awful! I never ever want to be an Alicorn! Who would want to have all that power anyway. Besides if I ended up becoming an Alicorn I would probably doom the world with my uncontrollable powers."

The white pegasus untangled herself from her sheets and walked to her vanity. A bowl of water lay there and she splashed her face with it. She lifted her bangs to make sure she wasn't still dreaming and only found a nub there.

"I must of gotten this bump from falling off the bed," Chatterjoy said to herself. Silly Chatterjoy forgot she lived in a cloud.
