My New Life

by YoshiBrony6


The After-party

The party was pretty cool. We all played heaps of games, most of the time it was things like 'pin the tail on the pony', but there was also Twister, much to my amusement.

I kept failing at the former, mainly because I kept getting the height wrong, but in Twister, I was an unstoppable force that no one could stop because I just said that I was unstoppable.



Except for Pinkie. She could keep up with me. I blame elastic pink ponies.

So anyway, there was lots of party food, most of which was devoured by me, and plenty of drinks. I basically just summoned a few for them to taste from my world. I brought Solo, Fanta, Coke, and Pepsi. I kept Pinkie limited to Solo and Fanta, fearing what she would do if she was hyped up on caffeine, but let the others have whatever they wanted.

Rarity enjoyed the Solo, Fluttershy liked Fanta, Applejack and Rainbow kept drinking Pepsi, and Twilight preferred the Coke. I got myself some Mountain Dew, and made sure no one had any of mine. To complete the image, I also summoned some black sunglasses and a packet of Supreme Cheese Doritos. I dipped the chips in my drink and ate them, which grossed out everyone except Pinkie.

Damn girl too hyper.

Anyway, once everything started to cool down, I looked at the sky and saw the moon pretty much nearing the middle of its cycle.

"Why don't you guys stay here and we can all have a sleepover? It'll give us an opportunity to finish all the food." I suggested

"Yes!" Was Pinkie's instant response.

"I would like that, if it's not too much trouble." Fluttershy said.

"Why not?" Applejack said.

"Sure! I can drink more of that delicious Pepsi as well." Rainbow said.

"Why Rainbow, I think we might've broken your addiction to cider!" I said cheerfully.

"How did you know about that?" Rainbow hissed.

"I just do." I replied.

"Getting back on track, I think it would be a lovely way to spend the first night in your new home." Twilight said.

"If everypony is then I might as well." Rarity said.

"Great! We're just missing two people." I said.

"And who would that be?" Rarity asked.

I smirked and clapped my hands twice. Next to me, Celestia and Luna appeared. Celestia was soaking wet while Luna had the most bored expression on her face. Which quickly turned into one of shock, and then realisation.

"Andrew, what is it now?" She asked.

"Oh nothing....... except for the fact that we are going to be playing Monopoly." I said with a smile.

Luna gasped and started shaking her sister. "Tia! Tia! We're going to be playing Monopoly!" She paused. "What's Monopoly?"

Water flew everywhere from Celly's coat, making her dry but making all of us except Luna wet. I dried us off with a snap of my fingers and made a Monopoly game appear in my hands.

"Luna! Calm down! And what was that about playing a game?" Celestia asked.

"We're all playing Monopoly." I said as I set up the game.

"Oh, it. Is. On!" Celestia said, walking over to and sitting down at an empty spot at the table. Everyone followed their Princess's example and found themselves sitting with a pile of money in front of them.

"You will find that your characters are all little copies of yourself," I said, showing them their little models, "And that in front of you, there will be two $500 bills, four $100 bills, two $50 bills, five $20 bills, four $10 bills, four $5 bills, and last but not least, five $1 bills."

Everyone counted their money to make sure.

"There will be one round around the board before anyone can purchase properties. However, if you land on a tax space, you will have to pay up. If you land in jail, you have to either pay $50 or get a double number." I continued.

"The winner is the one who has the most money after everyone has quit, and that is everyone, or someone has run everyone else bankrupt, meaning that you have given all your money to them including the mortgage of your owned properties. Now, if everyone is ready?"

Everyone nodded.

"BEGIN!"


Everyone made it around the board without anything bad happening, but what happened next was a nightmare for everyone.

I landed on the browns two of the light blue properties, purchasing them. I got a bit of money out of that from a couple of unfortunate players.

Twilight ended up buying one of the pink properties, which made Pinkie get upset because she wanted them seeing as she was the same colour.

One orange was bought by Applejack, which frustrated Pinkie even more, and a red by Fluttershy. Rarity didn't want to buy anything, but I think I know what she wanted.

Celestia bought two of the yellow properties, with Luna buying one green. Pinkie just kept on landing on other people's properties, much to her annoyance, and tried to get out of paying by offering them a party instead.

It didn't work.

Rainbow had bought an orange and red, giving her a bit of an edge on having more than one set.

Eventually, I made it to the dark blue set, which made Rarity huff in annoyance. My hunch was right. When everyone had passed go, some more landed on my properties, giving me a bit of the money I just lost back.

When it came back to my turn, I did what Celestia dreaded, and bought hotels for my recent purchases of 'Park Place' and 'Boardwalk'. I rolled and got $200 from GO, which gave me what I needed to survive the round.

Everyone laughed at my choice, but I just wagged my finger at them, telling them that they would eat their words later. They all laughed at me.

My first victim was Rarity.

She landed on 'Park Place', which made me grin evilly.

"$1500, Rarity." I said.

"But that's nearly all my money! I'll only have $150 left! Surely you could lower the price for moi?" She asked, fluttering her eyelashes at me.

"Hmm, no." said flatly. "Now give me da monies." I held my hand out, and the correct amount was floated into my hand. "Nice doing business with you." I said with a smile.

Rarity simply grumbled under her breath.

I got another victim from Rainbow Dash on the same place.

Moar monies.

Soon enough, everyone was having to mortgage except Celestia and I.

I had the brown and light blue properties with 1 pink, 1 orange, 2 reds, 1 yellow, and 1 green property. I was practically sucking in all the money.

Soon enough, it was Celestia and I.

Because everyone had gotten taken out, I had rushed to buy as many of their former properties as I could. I ended up have the brown, light blue, pink, orange, green, and dark blue sets all with hotels.

Celestia only had the red and yellow, which I traded to her for the utilities and the train stations she had. Somehow, she kept dodging all of my properties, for 3 circuits. I suspected foul play, so when Celestia rolled next, on the last straight before GO, I made sure she couldn't use any magic.

She landed on 'Pennsylvania'.

"$1400, Celly. Pay up." I said with a smirk. She scowled slightly, but payed me nonetheless. She had gotten a double so she rolled again. Her karma was catching up to her, as she landed on 'Park Place'.

"$1500." I said simply.

I received the required money.

Celestia rolled again.

Double one's.

"Ding, ding, ding! We have our first customer! Please welcome Celestia to Boardwalk!" I said cheerfully. Somehow, everyone had avoided that one card.

"That'll be $2000, please." Celestia had to mortgage a few cards, and when she rolled again, she got another double.

"Well, look's like it's off to jail for our Princess." I joked.

Celestia scowled even more. She quickly paid $50 to get out, and rolled.

Landing on my 'States Avenue'.

"$750." I said.

She paid.

I rolled.

Landed on B & O Railroad.

Celestia rolled.

Landed on Tennessee Avenue.

"$950."

She only had $345 left.

Celestia made it past my railroad and utility on her straight and landed on the 'Chance' square. When she rolled again, she landed on Boardwalk.

"And that's game set and match!" I said, standing up.

Celestia also stood up, but flipped the table. "I CALL HACKS!" She shouted, pointing a hoof at me.

I held my hands up defensively. "Hey, you can't hack a board game. That's only for video games."

"I DON'T CARE! YOU STILL HACK AT MONOPOLY!"

I sighed before turning to Luna. "Can you take her to another room and settle her down?" I asked.

Luna took one look at her furious sister before running out of the room.

"You forgot your sister!" I called out to her while sending Celestia with her, knowing that she would hate to be in the same room as her.

"Why did Princess Celestia react like that?" Twilight asked.

"I've beaten her 3,649 times at Monopoly." I said nonchalantly. I heard several bangs, and saw 7 jaws on the ground. "What? It's just a game."

With that, I walked off to set up the WII U for a Super Smash Bros tournament.


A couple of hours later found Celestia calmed down and all of us battling it out in SSB4.

"Winner gets to have someone in this room do anything short of suicide for them." I reminded everyone for what was probably the fiftieth time.

"WE KNOW!" They shouted.

"Just reminding you." I mumbled.

I used my best character; Jigglypuff.

And Jigglypuff is best character.

I was saving my secret weapon for the last round. I kept saying that the down special was my secret weapon, which it was, but no one believed me because all it did was put me to sleep.

They'll never realise the true power of Jigglypuff.

Right now it was me against Applejack. She decided to use Bowser. Probably because of his brute strength.

"Imma gonna win!" I said as I used my side special to smack her off the stage, making her lose one of her three lives.

"No you're not!" She replied, really only mashing the buttons.

We kept bantering back and forth until I knocked her off two more times.

"I'm a superstar!" I said, striking a pose.

Which everyone proceeded to laugh at.

"Party poopers." I grumbled to myself.


It's the final round. Luna vs Andrew. Who will win? Dark Pit against the adorable, bouncy, fluffy, pink Jigglypuff.

"And welcome to the final round! Place your bets on who will win. So far we have 100 bits on Luna courtesy of Celestia, and 295 bits of Andrew." Pinkie announced.

All around her were hats with Luna's face on it saying 'Luna No. 1!' and a shirt saying 'Go Andrew, Go!'

Celestia had a Luna hat on and was sipping at one of those hat attachments that you can put drinks in. Family love. Not a thing in the world stronger than that.

"And betting is closed! Please make your way to your seats and wait for the match to start!" Pinkie said.

Everyone gathered around us, waiting for the final round to begin.

Then, the screen showed 'Final Destination' and started counting down.

"3! 2! 1! Go!"

Luna and I were instantly at it. She shot at me with an arrow, but I jumped over it. I charged up a rollout and let loose when I hit the ground. Luna jumped over it, but I changed directions and hit her in the back.

Using her side special, Luna caught me in her spinning blades, dealing a fair bit of damage to me.

Luna: 32% 3 lives.

Andrew 74% 3 lives.

This continued for a while, with me using my up special to put her to sleep before attacking to deal a bit more damage.

Luna: 61% 2 lives.

Andrew: 9% 1 life.

As I started to lose, people changed their bets to Luna's side, but I evened up the playing field by using a side smash on her to send her flying of the side, making her lose a life.

As Luna dealt even more damage to me, I dealt damage to her. When she got to 70% and I was on 120%, I set my plan in motion.

I sat still and allowed Luna to run towards me. I saw her smirk as she was sure victory would be hers. I waited for the right moment, and just before Luna hit me, I used it.

Rest.

Now, if you have played the first couple of Super Smash Bros, you would know what rest does. If you don't, well, it pretty much sends your opponent flying off the screen. However, if you miss, you are right open for attack. Anyway, when it came to SSBB (Super Smash Bros Brawl), Jigglypuff was heavily nerfed, so you had to damage your opponent if you wanted to send them flying instead of from 0%.

Anyway, faster than the eye could follow, Luna went flying off the screen. The screen changed to the after-battle screen with the statistics of how you did and all that jazz. I skipped through it, and waited for Luna to do the same.

When she didn't do anything for a minute, I looked over to her.

She and everyone else had their jaws slack with wide eyes. I smirked and couldn't help but snap my fingers. Slowly, beards started to grow on everyone. I struggled to contain my laughter, until the beards grew so long they started snaking up the wall.

When I started rolling about on the floor, trying to breathe, everyone snapped out of their daze. What happened next was probably even funnier.

They all started screaming and running around, trampling on their beards, sending a couple of them to the floor. What made me laugh harder was someone yelling "IT GOT IN MY MOUTH!". Although, it was more like a shriek that almost broke the windows.

Eventually, I recovered and snapped my fingers once more, removing the beards.

"Are you done?" I asked.

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" Rainbow yelled, getting up in my face.

"For sitting there like a stunned mullet." I replied, showing them what they were doing.

"Oh." She said.

"And now for my request!" I said gleefully.

Everyone glanced around nervously.

"I want to..."




"Sit in court for tomorrow." I announced.

Everyone looked at me dumbfounded.

"I'm sorry, but did you say you want to sit in court tomorrow?" Celestia asked.

"Yep! But I'm going to be running it." I said.

"I'll never understand you." Celestia said with a sigh.

"But if you knew what I would do exactly, then I would become boring!" I said.

"Ugh, I'm going to bed." Celestia said, annoyance clear in her voice.

As she walked off, I turned to everyone in the room. "I think it's best if we all get some sleep too." I said.

Everyone nodded and started walking off. Cue the 'where is everything' in 3, 2-

"Hey Andrew! Where is everything?" I heard Twilight call out to me.

Dang! So close! "I'll come show you." I replied.
