//------------------------------// // Final Chapter - What? // Story: My Little Humans: New York is Magic // by Laurenfaustsloyalfan //------------------------------// Almost everypony had given up hope searching for the bearers of the Elements of Harmony, save Princess Celestia and many of the residents of Ponyville. Lyra and Bon Bon had taken the Cutie Mark Crusaders in to take care of them while waiting for their sisters to get back, if they ever got back. It had been days since Celestia had seen any sleep, she read thousands of scrolls. Finally a very old pony came into the room and cleared his throat to catch her attention. "Princess Celestia, I believe I have the scroll you're looking for." She immediately dropped all her other scrolls and looked at him. He nodded and trotted forward and he levitated the scroll to her. She unrolled it and read it, then she smiled. "Thank you very much, with this I can finally bring back Twilight Sparkle and her friends." He bowed and trotted out of the room. Celestia wanted to bring Twilight and her friends back but she was too exhausted to try. She went onto her royal bed and immediately fell asleep. -------------------------------------------------------------- Owen's ears were still ringing from the explosion. He could barely hear the other girls talking and Rainbow Dash crying. He wanted to get away, he needed to get away. He took out his cellphone and looked at the time. 4:35, that should give us enough time to go to the zoo, hopefully that will be calmer than this. He put away his phone and kept walking, after a few minutes, Rainbow stopped crying but stayed silent. When they got there, Fluttershy squeaked. She ran in first, full of excitement. "Oh my, look at all these animals... they're all so cute and pretty." Owen took Fluttershy's hand and led her with the girls to a relatively quiet and safe spot. "Okay, so since the last time we split up, an explosion happen, we should all stick together, and just look at the animals as a group. No one separates, okay?" The girls nodded and they all went to see the animals. --------------------------------------------------- Alexander escaped with Pinkie and they got in the car as fast as they could. Pinkie was still looking at the mushroom cloud that was there, she was drooling over how much she wanted it. They were driven away, and before she knew it, Pinkie Pie passed out from all the excitement in her heart. Alexander looked at her sleeping, and couldn't help but smile, he hadn't seen this much excitement in a long time. "Take us home, please." The driver nodded and proceeded to drive them back to Alexander's house. "I really should meet more people like you, Pinkie. You're a riot." He chuckled to himself and then closed his eyes for the small rest he would get. ----------------------------------------------------- "Excuse me, mister." The man looked at Twilight Sparkle, with an obvious lack of caring for what she had to say, but she was oblivious to it. "Why are all these animals locked up in cages? It doesn't make sense." He cocked up an eyebrow and then chuckled. "Because these dumb animals don't know any better, and we keep them locked up so they don't do anything stupid, ain't that right you stupid monkey?" He shocked the monkey with his tazer. Fluttershy looked at the monkey and walked up to it. "You're not dumb at all, I know you're just as smart as anybody here." It went up to her, and she smiled. She looked at the lock on the cage. She was about to move her hand towards it when Owen called to her. "Um, I'll be right there, I just want to look at him for a while longer." Owen's first instinct was to go to her, but he decided to just leave her, he nodded and went along with the other girls. Fluttershy looked at all the animals, stuck in their cages. She felt so bad for all the poor little animals not being to go out and have fun like she was. She looked at the guard who had decided to take a nap, and she smiled. Somewhere near her, an animal went squeee. ------------------------------------------------------ "Hey Alex, can I call you Alex? Anyway, can you give me some more of those icky mushrooms? I really want some more, they were so icky tasting, but wowee! They made me feel soooo goood! Everything was colorful..." She trailed off talking and Alexander could only laugh at how energetic she was. "I'm sorry Pinkie, but no. You can't have anymore mushrooms, too many at once isn't good for you. You'll have to wait a while." With that he got up and decided that after so much excitement he needed some well needed rest. He left Pinkie alone in her room, and went to bed himself. Pinkie never liked to take no for an answer. She spent hours just trying to do something all this energy, but Gummy wasn't there to help. She wanted to get more of those mushrooms. She tried the doorknob, but Alexander had locked it. She frowned, then looked at the window, and a big bring ran across her face. "I am about to be. BRILLIANT!" She giggled and opened the window and jumped out. She made her way around the house and to the front door, where she opened the door and looked for a safe or anything that held money. She checked, drawers, cabinets, toilets, couches, tables, and then when she moved a book to the side, she found a safe. Using 1% of her Pinkie keen brilliance and 99% of guessing, she opened the safe and retrieved hundreds of dollars from the safe. She snuck out of the house and made her way to get more mushrooms. ------------------------------------------------------------ "All right, Luna, while I go to find the Elements of Harmony, I need you watch the castle, okay?" Princess Celestia said as she opened a portal to another universe. Luna watched while frowning. "Why can't I go with you, Tia? I'm just as capable of finding them as you are." She was going to say more but she was cut off by a hug from Celestia. "Please, Luna, do this for me, Twilight Sparkle is my student, and I will bring her back along with her friends." Luna nodded at this and gave Celestia a smile, and she returned it. "Besides, these clothes don't fit you, they were always specifically for me." She trotted through the portal and disappeared, leaving Luna alone. Celestia appeared in New York unlike the 6 girls, completely fine and fully clothed, as she had before in her past. "This world has changed a lot since the last time I was here." Nonetheless she was prepared and had cast a spell that would let her use magic in this world just like in Equestria. "I should find them immediately, but I should get to know what I missed." She smiled softly and picked a direction and followed it. -------------------------------------------------------------- "Okay this seems like a nice spot, let's all just sit here and chill out." They all nodded except Rainbow Dash who was still emotionless after she had stopped crying. Applejack had been worried and she looked around, and an idea formed into her mind. "Hey, Rainbow Dash, I bet ya'll can't beat to that there tree in a race." Rainbow Dash looked up slowly at Applejack, and then the tree. Rainbow Dash could never deny a race, it just wasn't in her blood. "You're on, Applejack." She smiled, Applejack's plan had worked, and she got a good chance to beat Rainbow Dash in a race. They got up and told Owen what they were going to do. He sighed and let them be, the least he could do is let Rainbow have fun after how she was acting. They quickly shook hands and got their places for the race, and ran off. Owen had seen no sign of Fluttershy but that didn't worry him. Fluttershy was a very nervous girl, and probably wasn't going to do anything. "It's nice to have some peace and quite, right girls?" Twilight agreed and continued reading her books, learning as much as she could from this new world. Rarity was getting used to using her fingers for drawing. --------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy grabbed the keys of the guard without waking up, and quietly made her way to the first cage. The animals looked at her and cocked their heads. She smiled and showed the keys, then they smiled as well. She opened the lock but told them to be quiet until the time is right. The animals got out quietly as she made her way to the other cages and let all the animals out. The guard woke up and saw all the animals out, and fell out of his chair and went for his tazer, but found it gone and in Fluttershy's hands. Fluttershy smiled at him, then looked at her animal followers. "Be free my little creatures! Be free and have fun." The animals all looked at each other, then went wild around the zoo, most of them attacked the guard and pounded him. They started attacking random people, and breaking things. The animals went berserk and were breaking and attacking everything. Fluttershy saw this and tried to calm them down, but they wouldn't listen and continued going nuts. "Oh please my new friends, stop being so rude and mean." None of the animals listened, she regretted letting them out. She figured Owen might know what to do and quickly made her way to him. ----------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash touched the tree first and stopped to take a breather, followed closely by Applejack. "Ha! You can't beat me in a race, I'm the fastest! You should know that by now Applejack." Applejack simply smiled and hugged Rainbow Dash, they were taking a rest and talking when suddenly a chimpanzee jumped onto Rainbow's back. "Huh? What is this? Why is it on me? Get it off!" Applejack looked at it and laughed as Rainbow tried to get it off. She threw it off her back and suddenly 6 more chimps got behind the original one. They all looked at Rainbow, and she gulped. Applejack took quick notice of the new group and stopped laughing and got beside Rainbow Dash. "Um, Sugarcube, Ah don't think ya'll should've done that." The chimps started screeching and pounding the floor. Then one pointed at Rainbow and they all screeched louder and hit the floor harder. "Ah think we should make like a couple 'o apple trees and get the buck out of here!" Applejack grabbed Rainbow Dash by her arm and ran away from the chimps, who gave chase. They ran in direction of Owen, he would know what to do. -------------------------------------------------------- Owen was about to fall asleep when he heard the call of Rainbow Dash and Applejack, he got up and saw them running towards him. They had what turned into 9 chimpanzees after them. Owen face palmed and cursed himself for letting them out of his sight. He got up and looked at Twilight who was woken up by the call of Applejack & Rainbow Dash, she cleaned her mouth of the drool and got up. Rarity had been wide awake and stood up as well. Then he heard the low but recognizable scream of Fluttershy who was also running towards him but with a whole herd of animals behind her. "I knew this was a bad idea, stupid, stupid Owen." He sighed and got Fluttershy only to be mauled by a tiger, and get a scratch on his arm. He grabbed her and ran for Twilight and Rarity who had Rainbow and Applejack on their tail. Owen grabbed his phone but dropped it and saw it get stomped on by the gorilla. "Oh shi--" He was cut off by tripping by the guard who was either unconscious or dead. He took the guards phone and checked if it was working, it was. He dialed 911 and told the cops to come over as fast as they could, the animals had gotten out of the Zoo. They ran out of the zoo and ran the way back to Owen's apartment. The animals stopped chasing them and simply went all out berserk. They attacked everyone and everything. Owen let go of Fluttershy as she was capable of running on her own. As soon as he did, he went to cross the street as fast as he could but got hit by a car. He sighed and got up and told the girls to follow him. They made their way back to the apartment and as soon as they all calmed down, Owen looked at Fluttershy. "Fluttershy, tell me you weren't the one who let all the animals loose, please tell me it wasn't you." Fluttershys eyes started tearing up and sniffled quietly. As hard as Owen tried to be mad at her, he couldn't. It was too cute, he sighed and sat next to Fluttershy and hugged her, as did the rest of the girls. "Fluttershy, the next time you cause a rampage of deadly animals, warn me, okay?" She nodded and smiled. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Pinkie went asking around where to get mushrooms, and the only responses she got were either laughs, shrugs, or disgusted looks. She was about to give up when a man approached her with a bag full of mushrooms. Her eyes lit up and she had a big smile. "Yo girl, I heard you like mushrooms." She nodded rapidly, he chuckled and brought out his biggest bag of mushrooms. Pinkie's mouth was wide open, her eyes sparkling, she was drooling a bit at the site of so many icky mushrooms. She took out all the money she had and he took it, giving her all the mushrooms he had. She opened the bag and it smelled icky but she didn't care, she had her icky mushrooms of gloriousness. She took out a handful and shoved it in her mouth, it tasted icky but she just kept shoving more and more into her mouth. Before she knew it, she was in a paradise of wonders and colors and beautiful things. In reality, she was giggling like a crazy woman and simply walked around. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Alexander got up from a well needed and wonderful rest. He got out of his room and went to get Pinkie. He unlocked the door and saw that the room was empty and the window open. He frowned, then he turned around and saw his most secret safe open. Worse, it was empty, Pinkie had taken all of his money, he would not forgive her for that. He made a few phone calls and went to find her, to make sure she never steals from him again. He got in his car and proceeded to follow her, he asked around and they all pointed in the right direction to her. The people he called had arrived at the site and he had found Pinkie giggling and rubbing herself up against a wall, thinking it was a soft patch of talking grass that kept telling her jokes. His anger only grew at this immensely large waste of his money. He stepped out of the car and tried to put his best face. "Ms. Pie?" He called, Pinkie Pie faced him and she just hugged him and started rubbing herself up against him as well, but he told no jokes and she frowned, then giggled again. "It's time to go, Ms. Pie, let me take you back to the house." She nodded and got in the car with him. She laid down on the floor of just giggling and making odd noises. Alexander looked at her and felt the urge to just leave here there, but he had other plans for her. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Celestia had won the 7th race in a row in the Arcade Games. Everybody around her boo'ed. She simply giggled and made her way outside of the building. She checked her watch and decided it was time to get the girls. One flick of her hand and she knew where to go to find the girls, and so she began walking. "I must say I do prefer this world much better, so many new things. Much better than it was back then, when everybody just had loin cloths and clubs." She sighed and strolled through the streets, making her way to Owen's apartment when one of the lights guiding her went off into another trail, Pinkie was separated from them. "Hm, interesting. Who should I go fo--" She stopped when Pinkie's trail joined into the others. Curious it was for Celestia, so she continued walking in that direction. She saw the apartment where the guide lead her, and it was on fire! Celestia hoped for the best, changed into a black suit and put on a pair of sunglasses. She ran towards the apartment, in hopes of making it in time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alexander took Pinkie to his old apartment and dragged her inside to his old and now empty room. He left her there and lit his lighter. Pinkie fell and shook her head. "Where am I, Alex?" The effects were wearing off and things weren't making sense for Pinkie. She saw Alexander completely serious, with ice cold eyes. He threw the lighter onto the floor and flames surrounded Pinkie. Pinkie looked at Alexander who was still serious and unmoving. "Perhaps now, you'll learn to do as you're told, and to not take money from those who do you such big favors." He left and closed the door. Pinkie didn't know what to do, the fire was everywhere and the building was old, a piece of wood fell close to her and she jumped away and burned her back. Her eyes started tearing up and she huddled in a space, waiting to be saved. "Please, Twilight, girls, help me!" She cried and tried to keep her cool as things fell around her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Owen felt the floor get hot. He looked down and then went to his window and saw smoke and he looked at the girls behind them, all 5 were there so it wasn't them doing anything. His apartment was set on fire. He face palmed again and sighed heavily. "Why is my apartment on fire?!" The other girls just shook their heads, Rainbow took a step and a piece of the floor fell and there was an entire room on fire, and they could hear Pinkie crying. "That's Pinkie! We have to go save her! Come on Owen!" Rainbow made for the door, followed by the rest of them. Applejack kicked the door open, and there was Pinkie, crying and alone surrounded by fire. "Who did this?" Owen looked bewildered. "Who cares! We gotta save Pinkie, now!" Applejack was going to move but Owen stopped her and went for Pinkie. He sprinted towards her and as the floor fell, Owen jumped and made it to Pinkie. Twilight and the others could only watch. "Owen?!" Pinkie immediately hugged him. "Yeah, it's good to see you too, Pinkie, now come on, you have to make it to your friends." As he said that the floor beneath them started crumbling. Owen gulped and looked at the distance. "I'll throw you, and they'll catch you, alright?" Pinkie looked at them and then back to Owen. "What about you?" Owen shook his head. "They'll catch me, don't worry, you just make it, okay?" Pinkie nodded. Owen grabbed her fiercely and threw her, with her weight shifting correctly, and she made the leap. Applejack caught her and lifted her up. Owen was going to jump but part of the floor crumbled, and he stumbled back, the distance was now too great for him to jump and make it. They all looked at Owen, Fluttershy was already crying, so was Rainbow Dash. "Come on Owen, jump! Ah'll catch ya!" Applejack held out her arm. Owen sighed and shook his head. "The jump's too long, I won't make it, you girls just get safe, dont worry about me!" Applejack shook her head, she didn't want to believe what she was hearing. Celestia barged into the room. "Twilight, the rest of you, come with me, before this building crumbles!" They all shook their head. "Not without Owen we won't! Come on Owen!" Owen was going to say something, but the floor beneath him gave in and he fell with the rest of the floor. Applejack still held out her arm, as all of them watched in silence as Owen had just fell to his end in their faces. "Girls, we have to go now!" Celestia grabbed them all and took them out as the building gave in and crumbled, the fire still strong. The firemen arrived and were dousing the flames. The 6 girls were all crying and hugging Celestia. "Shhhh, it's alright now. It's time to go back to Equestria, girls. There's nothing more we can do here." They all looked back at the now destroyed apartment, and nodded softly while still crying. Celestia opened the portal to Equestria, and everyone there was staring in awe. The 6 girls went through, and Celestia was about to before she pulled out a device and let out a huge flash in everybody's eyes. She took off her sunglasses and sighed. "Okay, look, put out that fire, then make a huge funeral in name of the guy that died there, Owen. After that, continue on with your lives." She put on her shades and walked through the portal. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Several days later... Twilight had walked down and yelled for Spike. He came into the room running. "What is it, Twilight?" Spike looked uninterested, but then Twilight pointed at the mess in the library. He sighed and started cleaning up. Twilight walked out the library and left Spike in charge as he cleaned. She made her way to Applejack's barn where the rest of her friends were. They were all looking at a handsome drawing of Owen, made by Rarity. They all smiled, and Fluttershys eyes teared up again, but she wiped her eyes. "We'll never forget you, Owen. You were always there for us, when every one of us needed you." Pinkie threw some streamers and confetti. "From now on, we'll throw a party every year to celebrate Owen. Okay girls? Pinkie, make it a really big party, just for us six, okay?" Pinkie nodded and hopped her way back to Sugarcube corner. They all left except Applejack and Twilight. "I still can't believe it, I had my ho-- I mean... My hand held out there, and he's still gone." She got up and trotted out, leaving Twilight alone. "Thank you again, Owen. For everything you did." With that, Twilight trotted out. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Several years later....... Applebloom was trotting around Ponyville on her way to the farm. On her way she picked up Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle. All three of them already had earned their cutie marks. They all made their way to the farm and hide inside of the barn. Once inside, they all got dressed. "Ahlright, you gals ready?" Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle nodded. "Sweetie Belle, cast the spells." Sweetie Belle nodded again and proceeded to cast the spell. A portal had appeared, and they all trotted through. ----------------------------------------------------------- Applebloom hugged Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. They called a taxi and quickly got in, they were dropped off at the nearest Hotel and made their way. They checked in, for a Villa. They made their way in and settled in then they all stared out the window. Scootaloo was the first speak. "If there's one thing I love about this world, it's Vegas." She put on some shades and grabbed a martini. They all laughed and made their way down. They had the night of their lives. Applebloom woke up next to Scootaloo, they were both completely naked, and Sweetie Belle was lost. "Oh boy, this is bad...." To be Continued.......
