//------------------------------// // Its not funny. // Story: My Little Pony: Sonic Gen. Underground // by Jake Witt //------------------------------// This is an... interesting morning, thought Sir Lancelot. In his palm, a tiny pink (not mobian) hedgehog squeaked and tapped his palm with a tiny hammer. It would look adorable, but his focus was elsewhere. Elsewhere as in a white sonic wearing gold scarf and shoes pulling his normal looking younger self, who is hovering above the ground, any attempt to touch it and move himself in vain. Miles Prower hovered to his seat with his tails, his body purple and his limbs gone. On his extreme gear, Jet was stiff as a board except for his head, pulling himself with his beak. To Lancelot's right, new Amy looked the same shoulders down, but her head had clown makeup on and she was as silent as young Sonic. She tried to scrub off the makeup, suddenly falling over a banana that flew through an open window. A very fat Silver dragged himself on the ground, trying to lift himself. He gave up and levitated the cereal Sonic prepared for Tails, getting an angry glare from the fox and gobbling the breakfast before sleeping where he sat. Instantly the sound of a beating drum was heard and Manic walked in with his head in the form of a green "one man band" drum that had a stick beat the side of the drum his face wasn't on as he walked. He made himself some cereal like the others and tried to eat, only for the flakes to not pass his jaws, but slide down his open mouth. A short green Sonia joined the group, opening the freezer (with some help) to see Cream and Cheese in the form of living ice cream. Cream was a gallon of orange sherbet and cheese was two blue scoops on a cylinder waffle cone. They both continued to shiver as Sonia closed the door. Sonia looked up at Sonic, "Black doesn't look good on you brother." She walked off with her ice bag. A completely robotic Bunnie walked in, her metal stetson bouncing on her metal head. "What're you talking about? There isn't a lick of black on him, Hon!" She commented in a dull, emotionless voice. "Is that mah voice?!" Lancelot almost brought his palm to his face, but stopped, remembering that his right hand was replaced by Arondight. His left hand still held the tiny pink hedgehog he found in a pile of Amy's laundry, holding her up to his ear, "Put. Me. Down." "Cant do it Ms. Rose... (Silver might eat you.)" He looked as Silver learned to roll himself with his fat, waving as he passed. A crash was heard from Knuckle's room as... Big Knuckles had two heads, the right one being his smaller counterpart's head. They wobbled around, fighting for control of the body up until they reached the couch and sat with Silver and Bunnie. Both Knuckles looked back at elder Sonic, saying in sync, "Nice look. The black really suits you/You looked better white and gold." They looked to each other, suddenly fighting over Sonic's colors. Sonic stood on a stool, "OK, I can see that I'm white. Who here sees blue on my body?" Some hands raised. "Well, this is an interesting morning." Manic glared at Jet, "Thanks Jet." He looked at the accuser, "What're you talking about? Its Silver that did it!" Deep voiced Silver never turned his head, replying, "Not me." He grabbed Manic's food and brought it to him, scarfing it down. "Then who was it?" Jet asked dryly. Amy's squeaking stopped as she rolled into a tiny ball. Lancelot looked down at her a brought her up to his ear, hearing tears. "Worry not, tiny Amy. We will soon-" "I-I didn't mean t-t-to do it..." She whimpered. Amy explained what happened, receiving a sigh from the night. Lancelot held up his hand, "Tis was an accident. Ms. Rose found flowers that did this to us. Manic assumed Jet was pulling a prank on him thus we all were affected. Why anybody thinks I would pull this foolish trick is beyond me." Everyone grabbed a petal from their rooms, each a blue with a faint smell of laughing gas. Big Sonic had a stem with a few petals left on the wilted plant. While that happened, Silver attempted to eat Cheese, but was stopped by clown Amy, clonking his head with a squeaky hammer. Tails tried to study the bits of plant, but fell on his face from the lack of balance. Bunnie tried to scan it, but advertisements blocked her vision. Knuckles tried to punch it, but disagreed on the idea. Amy had an idea, but she could only write in chicken scratch, causing her makeup to gain a frown and two blue tears. Sonia tried to talk, but quotes from Shrek escaped her lips instead. They all looked to Caliburn... who turned into a pair of scissors upon contact. Like promised, Twilight and Spike came over. It helped some. Spike decided to call Tails Eggplant, Cream and Cheese Icecream Friends, Bunnie Bun3 2.0, and stopped when to Twilight placed a hoof on his mouth. She scribbled some notes and looked back up to the group, "Don't worry, Zecora has a cure for Poison Joke. Well, hopefully. Go over to her hut and see what herbs you can get for the bath." Bunnie walked up to Twilight, hands raised, "Hold up, Sugah! Bath?" "Yes. She puts the herbs in a bath and you dip your whole body in it to be cured to your normal state," She then realized who she was talking to when Bunnie's eyes displayed fireworks and fully organic limbs. "Wait a moment. It might not cure your cybernetics, just the joke!" The image shaddered as she lowered her head, "Well, you said 'it might not' so Ah guess Ah can be a test subject, Hon." "That's the spirit!" Sonic said, patting her back. Spike looked up at him, "What's your problem?" "Do you see blue and black?" "Yes...?" Twilight noticed Sonic's reaction to Spikes question and a Q and A began. Sonic ran through the forest, on a trail to prevent his younger self from being snagged by a tree. Younger Sonic was tied to a rope older Sonic held, enjoying his high speed hovering. Behind him, Tails and Silver sat in the red wagon, with its back wheels gone thanks to the hedgehog. Following them, Jet still lied on his board, being pushed by clown Amy who had tiny Amy sitting on her head and her red dress over her shoulder and the gloves, shoes, etc. in a bag. Knuckles was led by Sir Lancelot holding his hand while Caliburn latched onto the knight's Arondight arm. Bunnie carried a cooler with Cream and Cheese inside while Manic and Sonia followed, drum beating and Sonia saying things about waffles and boulders. Following the group, citizens followed the sound of Manic's drum, believing that there was a parade in the forest. A little bit later, those who feared the forest or didn't want to stumble in the dark left. When they finally arrived, the group found a sad then surprised Applebloom at the door. She cried out to Sonic, "Help! Zecora is still not home!" Manic ran closer to her questioning, "What do you mean she's not home?!" She backed up, folding back her ears before realizing who the drum-head was. "H-hi Manic...? She hasn't been home in months! Ah check every week an she still aint home!" On command, Bunnie ran up to Applebloom, holding out Cream. "Don't worry, we will help you." Cream said, looking up from her cooler, "Also, do you happen to know the cure by chance? Twilight mentioned you and Zecora were close in things like this." "Its been awhile since Ah last cured somepony of poison joke!" Her ears perked back up, "But there's a book inside that could help!" Sonic quickly looked at the hut, trying to open doors or find another entrance. He then looked at the windows, "I would break through the window, but I don't have a reason to dislike Zecora." Tails tilted his head from the wagon, asking, "Why would you break through the window?" Clown Amy dragged her hands down her face from the question, she would groan if she could. Sonic sighed, "A story for another time, Tails." Bunnie walked over to the window, successfully scanning the hut. "Hold on... Somethins alive in there!" "But Zecora doesn't have any pets," Applebloom commented. "Sugah, the life sign is faintin' we'd betta git in!" Without opposition, she burst through the window followed by Sonic and clown Amy. Clown Amy unlocked the door and grabbed the cooler away from Silver, leading everyone inside. In Zecora's bed room, a time statue filled with fear, stood near the bed. Sonic tapped the statue, revealing a zebra with gold rings on her neck and left hoof. She fell to the ground, looking up to see the group, "For saving me, I thank you." Her focus came to Sonic, she messed with her eyes then groaned, "Also, are you white or blue?" Zecora told us about a wave of white covering the forest and sky from nowhere, quickly taking her and her hut in its time/life empting wake. She reawoke without a body in a black limbo like everyone else (except any Sonics) and waited in fear for her rescue. As we searched for the herbs, we found a wisp gathering. Zecora was in awe of the new creatures, never seen before. She was even more amazed when Applebloom demonstrated their "color magic", transforming into a crimson eagle. "Eagle!" Zecora looked around for the loud male voice, only to find nobody with that voice. Sonic laughed, "Nobody knows the owner or location of that voice. All I know is that it speaks when their power is being given." They continued their search, finding only one herb, thanks to a friendly white wisp. Throughout their herb hunt, Silver complained about being hungry, Tails couldn't scratch his back or nose, both Knuckles argued, Cream and Cheese transitioned from the fear of the forest and Silver to the fear of melting, everyone was tired of Manic's thumping, clown Amy tried teaching sign language to little Sonic. It all stopped when Sonia prepared to smack someone saying, "This is the part where you all run away... Donkey!" We then learned Fiona is good and Donkey is bad, thus resorted to guessing or talking. Tails got his back scratched by clown Amy, commenting, "Once this is over, I'm going to build something to deal with this." Silvers nudged him, "Can you also install a buffet table?" "No. Your obviously not you when your like this." "What is that supposed-" Silver felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up at Amy. Clown Amy shook her head while tiny Amy pounded her paws together from clown Amy's shoulder. "How long will this take? I'm tired!" Sonia looked back at him, glaring, "He looked up at my dad. Its all ogre now. Donkey." Hello readers! Would you like an ending? Yes? Well, Deus Ex Machina is here! Shadow Ending Discord Ending (Canon Ending) Long story-short we gathered the herbs and boiled the water in a spa. The first to go (by popular demand) was Silver, who shed his fat and walked out slowly, drying his fur with his telekinesis. Knuckles hopped in with Manic, who decided to stay inside and soak. In another pool, the girls walked in and dipped Cream and Cheese. What came out was normal magenta swim suit Amy, a red faced Amy soaking in suppressed anger while bubbled rose from her mouth, a rabbit and chao splashing each other, a not green Sonia, and Bunnie quickly hopping out to save her cybernetics once she returned to her version of normal. As soon as most of the guys were normal, they tried to pull little Sonic inside the water, but his antigravity prevented contact. Silver lifted his hand, easily moving the water up to him. He glowed and fell with the water into the tub. Bunnie got Amy a red swim suit and handed it to her. Soon she lifted her head completely out of the water and glared as other Amy and Sonic discussed something in private. Behind her, Lancelot wiped Arondight dry from the water with his returned hand holding a rag, "So, did you learn anything new from this?" "Shut up, Lance."
