A/N: I'm not waiting for Dark to make the second chapter, so I'll just keep posting. I'll post the rest of the cross over when he finishes.
August 7, 4:43 P.M.
I waved good-bye to my new friends, and stepped through the portal. It was the same strange feeling, as I saw the dark floor that the MTSC was on. I looked around, nobody was there. I then headed out the door, looking for Vinyl. It wasn’t long until I found some ponies that looked like they were at a rave. The first one, a purple female that had grey hair and was covered in glow sticks, walked with the other 2, laughing. The second was brown, with red hair, he looked normal, but I could tell he was very drunk. The last one, she was red and white, with orange hair, she looked slightly sad, almost like she regretted not going to the party they appear to be talking about. I walked in front of the purple one’s path, and she stopped. I asked,
“Hello, have you seen Vinyl? White, unicorn, blue striped hair?” She just rose her hooves up and yelled,
“Duuuuuuuuuuuude! DJ-PON3 throws the best parties! The last I thing I remember her doing was spinning on a record at some party in Manehatten, after that I was too drunk to remember anything. But, still, IT WAS AWESOME!” She then ran off, her friends following close behind. She was at a party in Manehatten? Wouldn’t she try and help me? No, shouldn’t make any assumptions, I need to check first. I trotted out of Canterlot, toward Manehatten. The trip was quick, and the city was bustling with ponies running everywhere. I casually strolled toward Vinyl’s usual party place, and walked in. The place looked like a tornado went through it. By the sun, it was about 7 A.M. and there were about 6 different ponies passed out on the floor. Including Vinyl, I ran over to her and shook her awake. She yawned, and started to stir. Her hair was a mess,
She then said,
“Yo, dude, I wonder where you’ve been.” I shook my head and said,
“Why didn’t you get help, or try to find me?” She got up and said,
“I didn’t know what to do, and I thought you could do it yourself.”
“And yet, you just went to a party and got drunk. You didn’t even worry, or ask anypony, or go after me. You just left.” I turned around as she said,
“I didn’t think-”
“That’s right. You didn’t think. I could have died, and all you did was get drunk. I can’t forgive you for this.” I tear started to form in my eye as I took a step away from her.
“Don’t go! I’m sorry.” I started to walk away from here, a single tear falling down. I didn’t even look at her as I walked through the door. I could hear her softly sobbing on the floor as I left. I sighed as I found myself on the sunny Manehatten streets. Only, it didn’t feel sunny. It felt like it was raining, the noise of the city turned to a mush of sounds that sounded like soft rain.
My feet forced me down the street, my head looking downwards, my heart, betrayed. I knew I never should have gotten in a relationship. They never work out. Someone always ends up hurt. I hate people enough, since when did I get so close? What happened to me? What changed? I don’t care who lives or dies, and yet I’ve saved countless lives, without trusting anyone.
All my life, I’ve been depressed. That all changed when all this shit hit the fan. Vinyl, gave me a happy life, and then ripped it out. I brought my hoof up to my face and tensed it. Never again, will I let anyone get that close. Never again, will I make the same mistake. Hacking is an isolated job, and I liked it like that.
I’ve had enough of this hell. I’m getting off of this planet. I found the path back to Canterlot, and started walking down it. Before I could walk three feet, something purble flashed in right of me. Twilight came out of the dust, while saying,
“Neon! I need your help!” I walked around her, and she followed me. I said,
“Go away. I want nothing to do with this planet anymore.
“But somepony is harassing everypony in Sugar Cube Corner.”
“Not my problem.”
“Please! He’s made Fluttershy cry. I’m just asking one favor!” I stopped in my tracks, curious at what the trouble was. Someone was harassing people? And they even made Fluttershy cry? I sighed and said,
“Fine. I’ll do one last thing for you. After that, I’m leaving.” We quickly disappeared in a cloud of purple. I saw the familiar, and hated, sights of Ponyville. Sugar Cube Corner was right next to me, and Twilight had just walked in. I followed shortly after, seeing a brown pony with short green hair. His cutiemark was of an Xbox game controller.
A human? Luna didn’t.... I need to have another ‘talk’ with Luna. And by talk, I mean one of us might be dead if Luna doesn’t stop. He was screaming,
“HEY FAG! GET IN THE KITCHEN AND MAKE ME A FUCKING SANDWICH LIKE THE BITCH YOU ARE.” He was talking to Pinkie Pie. My blood started to boil as I saw the worst of the human race, in the place where I never thought they would go.
I slammed into the kid who had a voice like an annoying 13 year old off of Halo. I held him against the wall, so he couldn’t move. I calmly said,
“You are coming with me. Equestria doesn’t need a 13 year old off of newgrounds.” He spat in my face and said,
“I DID YOUR MOM AND MY BRO LET ME DRINK BEER THE OTHER DAY! I’M OLD ENOUGH TO DO WHAT EVER THE FUCK I WANT! SO FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING NOOB FAG.” I glared intensely in his eyes as I said,
“Go fuck a stoma, you pimply-faced ignorant asshat.” He thrashed around until he headbutted me. We stood four feet apart, glaring at each other. “I’m not a pony, I have the guts to rip off that tiny, forever unused, thing you call a dick.” He just scoffed and said,
“Go be a fucktard somewhere else, this shit is mine. You’re just a fucking gay asshole who will never get a hot girl like my online girlfriend in Asia.” Those words ringed in my ears as they brought back bad childhood memories.
I was 12 at time and I was getting science textbooks out of my locker. The memory was faded and grey, but it was still painful. Two large teens, that were fourteen, walked up to me. One of them said,
“Hey nerd. Why don’t you be a fucking gay asshole somewhere else.” I just stood there, terrified they might break my arm again. The other one said,
“I think he’s jealous that he can’t get chicks like us.” Then he pushed my books on the ground and they both burst out in laughter. I kneeled down to pick up my books as tears came in my eyes. No one stood up for me. I just kneeled on the ground, crying.
My mind then snapped back to reality. My hoof instinctively shot forward, slamming into the side of his head. He stumbled a few feet, then feel down. He passed out as the ponies around me clapped in appreciation. I felt ashamed. I hurt another human, even if he had it coming.
I felt something sticky flowing down the side of my head. I put my hoof on it and looked at my hoof. Blood. Fluttershy lightly walked up to me and said,
“Neon. You’re hurt. Here, let me bring you to the hospital.” I pushed her away and said,
“I’m fine. I don’t need to-” I looked into Fluttershy’s eyes. They had true concern, something very rare for me. If she’s really that concerned, I’ll go. “Okay, I’ll go.” She then fluttered out the door, holding onto my hoof. I walked near her until we stepped in the hospital. The place was busy, but all the nurses look prepared. Fluttershy raised her hoof as a nurse came by and tried to say something, but the nurse just ran past. She did that a few more times to different nurses until I had enough. Nurse Sweatheart came by, and I put my hoof out in front of her to stop her. Sweatheart looked at me, then at Fluttershy. Fluttershy then said,
“Uh... Neon is hurt... and he could use help... if that’s okay with you...” The nurse grabbed my hoof, and pulled me over to a bed. She said,
“Lie down, I’ll inspect the wound. What happend?” I had basic medical knowledge, and I said,
“Minor impact force on the side cranium. A small crack in the north west side, common in type B crashes. Recovery time about 4 weeks, no mental damage. Nor do I need any bed rest.” She stopped and just looked confused. I must have forgotten that they don’t have the same amount of medical knowledge as the human race.
Slightly ironic, when you think of it. Humans are selfish and greedy, ponies are kind and helpful, yet they can’t heal people as much. Doctors get paid a lot, so that might be why they try heal so much. Interesting how greed has saved lives. “I got in a fight.” The nurse’s face turned back to normal as she bandged the side of my head. I hate talking like an idiot just so these ponies understand me. Once Nurse Sweatheart finished wrapping my head, she said,
“Okay, just lie down for a few minutes, I’ll ask a few questions to see if you’re okay. First question: What is your name?”
“Neon Blaze.”
“Second question: You see a hurt bunny in Everfree forest, what do you do?” What the fuck kind of question is that?
“I’d let it die. Equestria doesn’t need another weakling.” The nurse looked appalled as she wrote down my answer.
“O-okay, what do you think about friendship?” Friendship? This is a mental test! That won’t prove anything.
“It’s all a lie. You get close, then they rip out your heart and smash it on the ground.” My mind flashed back to Vinyl for a split second until I pushed the memory out of my head. Why couldn’t I be a computer? Why can’t I just hit delete? Fluttershy was by my bed, looking scared.
“A pony has been bad, would you let him go or send him to the moon?” A pony has been bad? Really? Okay, fuck this.
“Kill him. Punishment has no long term effects and there is already too much evil in the world.” Fluttershy was curled up into a ball, rocking back and forth on the floor. The nurse just looked terrified. People shouldn’t see into my mind, it will give them nightmares. The nurse walked away. I just lied there for about 3 minutes, Fluttershy still scared. The nurse came back, with clipboard on her hoof. She said,
“It appears you are a sociopath.” I threw my hooves up in the air and said,
“Oh! That’s great. Now let me out of here.” She shook her head and said,
“You need help, I can’t just-” I laid up, getting out of the bed. “Sit down, please. You can’t just leave yet.” I glared at her as I stood on the floor.
“Look into my eyes. I. Don’t. Care. You can go fuck a vagrant, this is my life, and I will do with it what I want.” I walked out of the hospital, not looking back. I’m done with these damn ponies. I headed down the path towards Canterlot. It wasn’t long until I was interrupted. Rainbow Dash dived toward the ground, and landed right in front of me. She said,
“Hey, what did you do to Vinyl? She was upset.”
“None of your business. Now, go away. No one wants you here.”
“I want me here, and it is my business. I want you to apologize to Vinyl.” I took off running, in hopes of escaping her. She followed behind closely. I used magic and threw rocks at her while running. I didn’t try to hit it, just to make her dodge and slow down.
Rainbow Dash was closing in, so I stopped and ducked. She flew past me, trying to stop. I ran forward again, being about 10 feet away from her as she finally got back up to speed. I did that a few times, she never learned. My legs were getting sore, and I was out of breath.
But, Canterlot was right in front of me. I used the urban environment to keep her from guessing where to turn. I went around randomly, crossing streets and turning around. It was clear I wasn’t going to lose her, so I dashed toward the building the MTSC was in. The portal was open, or course. I really need to turn that off sometimes.
Too late now, I jumped in it, Rainbow Dash following close behind. It was an a hot boot-up, and I had built up some kind of resistance to it. A moment later. I was thrown onto my living room floor. My body was human again, and it was oddly quiet. What happened to trying to kill me? Did the government just say fuck it? I couldn’t think of an answer before I heard Rainbow Crash slam onto my floor.
She laid there as I said,
“Way to go. I had just been betrayed by my first girlfriend, and you just had to follow me here. Get out of my planet.” Rainbow Dash then got up, hand on her head. She mumbled,
“Ugh, what just happened?” She looked at her hands and appeared shocked. "What is going on!?" She then looked at the rest her, curios about her new body. Like Vinyl, she was naked too. I didn't really care. I tried to push her back into the portal, but she just dodged every time I tried to grab her. She was surprisingly fast, even thought she was still getting use to the new body.
"Get back in there. The world can live without the offspring of a parrot and an American." I said as I looked at her hair. She contained the trademark hair, still short and has most of the rainbow. That reminds me, why does she not have indigo? We're the designers too lazy to draw it? No wait, Equestria is real, I'll have to ask later. I gave up trying to push her and asked,
"Why do you want to stay? This world isn't sunshine and rainbows like yours. People die. There's no magic. You can't fly. Friendship is replaced by greed. You wouldn't last."
"What do you mean I can't fly?" She said as she felt her back for wings that didn't exist. "M-my wings..."
"That's right. There is no reason for you to stay, now go." She took a stern stance and said,
"Than I'll live without. This is a new world, and I want to at least check it out before I leave. " I looked over her again, seeing her toned arms, flat chest, smooth legs, and tanned skin. She looked like a professional runner. I sighed and said,
“Fine, but there will be rules.” She rolled her eyes, and said,
“Already rules.”
“These are for your safety, not mine. Now, first rule: Wear clothes.”
“Nah, I’m good.”
“It’s not legal-” She won’t understand this democracy system. I need to trick her. “Only losers don’t wear clothes here. Do you want to be a loser?” She took a step forward as she said,
“No! But, where do I get clothes?” Sigh, this is going to be a long day.
