Where am I?
I wake up the next morning. At first, I don't notice anything out of the ordinary. It isn't until I take a good look at my surroundings. I don't recognize this room. It had blue color walls that alternated between different shades. There was a lot of equipment that did not recognize.
My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of snoring right next to me. Looking over I can see that it Viny. Then I remember that she snuck me out of Octavia's room in the middle of the night.
So this is what her room looks like.
I get up, hoping that I would be back to my full size. I find a mirror on her closet door and take a look at myself. To my disappoint, I was still a small colt. Everything is so much bigger when you're a child.
Vinyl was starting to mumble in her sleep "Yo, little guy. Where's my bass cannon?"
What's a bass cannon...you know what, I don't want to know. I wondered if Twilight knows how to reverse this curse.
I leave the room and entered the living room. I take a look at the coat hanger. My scarf was probably placed there by one of the girls. I decided not to take and leave it behind since it was still dirty from being dragged across the ground yesterday. I make my way out the front door.
It took me a while to find Twilight's castle. I initially started walking but I kept getting stopped by random mares that I came across. Asking me if I was lost or something. They would rub my cheeks together with their hooves or mess with my mane. I wasn't liking the attention, so every time I saw one I would dash behind a wall or passing cart. I kept this up but was still found by them. I wasn't until I saw a grey pegasus flying by and bumping into things that I remember that I could fly too.
I don't understand how hard it was to find the Castle, even in the air. I mean it was a purple-colored crystal castle in the middle of a small town. When I finally did I was met by Spike greeting me at the door.
"Hey! Aren't you that colt that Twilight has been talking about lately?" He asked.
"I guess?" I replied. "Can you take me to her? I need to ask her about something."
"Sure, come on in."
He leads me to a room that had a table in the middle of the room with six chairs surrounding it. Twilight her self is flying above cleaning. She took notice of me and dove down. Expecting to get scowled at I was instead brought into a tight embrace.
Ghaaa not again!!
"Okay Silent, listen up. The effect on your body was caused by a flower called a poison joke." The alicorn spoke to me as she showed put me down and showed me a picture of the flower. "The only way to reverse its effects is by brewing up a specific potion. Luckily I know somepony or zebra that can help."
Okay. It seems simple enough.
"However, we need to find the ingredients first." She said.
"Great," I say sarcastically.
"...big sister thinks that she's the boss of me? Me! I'll show her. She thinks that I need somepony to watch over me." A small filly with a white coat and silver mane wonders out of the Everfree forest. Stomping her hooves on the ground.
She soon finds herself in Ponyville and in front of Pinkie Pie. Annoyed by this. She tells her to buck off. Pinkie wasn't fazed by this and resumed to what she was doing as if nothing happened.
"Weird pink pony," she told herself. She keeps walking until she spots a castle in the middle of the town.
"...I wonder when this was put up?" she asked. She had been out to Ponyville before, without permission, but never saw it before.
"A few months ago" Pinkie answered her question.
Surprised by her act caused the filly to jump into the air afloat. "Didn't I just tell you to buck off?!"
"Oh no, you have a naughty mouth young filly, Auntie Pinkie Pie will have to teach you some manners" She said pulling out a bar of soap.
The filly stared in confusion.
Exiting the room with a list of the ingredients I need to bring to Zecora. I walk towards the exit. Feeling the breeze made me feel a bit naked without my scarf. I wouldn't go back to Rarity's because she would charge me and I don't have any bits.
I reach the doors that lead outside only to find a filly pegasus attacking Pinkie Pie. The filly was 'punching' her and Pinkie was being Pinkie, I guess. She wasn't showing any signs of pain from the filly's punches.
"I will rip your head and feed it to the dragons and I will display the rest on top of my trophy case for everypony to see!" the filly yelled while Pinkie was looking at some birds.
I stood there watching the event unfold. I didn't need to stick around any longer. The sooner I find these ingredients the sooner I can have my old body back. Well, my new old body actually. I go around them hoping they would ignore me.
However, my actions are noticed by the filly. She quickly stopped what she was doing and shoved Pinkie out of the way. Surprisingly this actually sent Pinkie flying across town. A faint thud was heard with a burst of laughter following it. She stared at me for a few more seconds before making her way towards me.
"Hey! What are you going?" she asked me.
"Somewhere," I tell her.
"Where?" she asked again.
"Somewhere"
"Where?"
"Somewhere"
"Where?"
"..."
I didn't respond after that and kept making my out of Ponyville. Twilight said that she would meet me when I finally had all the ingredients. The white filly kept bugging me until we were outside Ponyville. It was getting really annoying. I just wanted to swing my arm and bash her in the head
You know you're getting really annoying and it's getting worse by the second
"Well I'm sorry if I'm bugging you, but I just want to know where you're going," she said.
Why do you even what to know? You just met me.
"Because I'm bored that why. My sister doesn't let me out on my own and always has somepony watching over me. So when I escaped I saw you, you were the only interesting one."
Wait, you can read my mind?
"Yes and no, you see I'm from a secret clan, that not even the princesses know about, called Enders. I don't know why we're called that. Enders can talk to each other telekinetically...wait how do you not know this?" she said confused at me at the end.
I don't... I just don't know anything until a few days ago
"Really?" she said surprised.
Can you stop following me?
"You don't like being around ponies do you?" she asked me.
No
Next thing I know, she has me a tight hug.
"Yay, a pony like me!" she yelled in excitement.
You know that there's something called personal space
"...don't care," she said as she made her grip on me tighter. This was really, no, way out of my comfort zone.
Get off me
I tried to push her away but she responded by squeezing me harder and taking the air out of my lungs. This was getting really annoying and painful really fast. I noticed that my wings were free. An idea popped into my head.
"Hey! what are you-!" she was interrupted by me flying up into the air and diving back down, and as expected, she let go. However, she began flapping her own wings.
She has wings too, dammit.
"Are you trying to kill me?"
Nope just trying to get rid of you
She dived towards me "I don't think so".
Griffin!
"Where?!" she turned around in hopes of seeing it. Looks like they exist in this world too.
So without hesitation I quickly flew as fast as my little pegasus wings could take me. I made my way to the Everfree forest.
"Where is it-?" she turned around only to see nopony around. "Are you kidding me?!"
So Zecora's hut should be around here...so, ah, this must be it
I found my way to the zebra's home. I really hoped that she could make the potion that would turn me back into my regular age, or that expedition I took was for nothing.
I flew up to the door and knocked three times
"Who knocks? Speak or you will get a block.". A zebra comes out of the hut and looks at me, once I got her attention
"Um..."
"Speak little colt, so not be shy. Are you lost and need a direction to fly?"
"No, I had a...poison joke accident."
"Oh is this not your true form? "
"No"
Then after me jumping into the potion and getting out to have my real self out, I gave Zecora the ingredients and something else from Twilight. I don't know what it was and she didn't seem like she wanted to tell me either.
Okay now that that's taken care of I can-
I didn't finish my thought because of a single hit to the back of my head.
"So...he was a stallion?" a feminine voice spoke out.
"I would appear so" another replied.
"Let's take him back, oh, and sis never run off again" the first one spoke to a small filly.
"Whatever" she bluntly replied to her older sister.
The two dragged the unconscious colt away to who knows where.
