> Transformation > by Ramboom > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The ONE week I was camping with my friends, could it have better or worce timing. I climed out of my tent on the first morning camping, still in my PJs, and I felt uncomfortable so I tugged on my pants then I felt better. Then my friend Tom climed out of his tent and fell backwards in shock. I turned to hear him start to say something, "Erin you you you have a..." I looked at him like he was crazy, "I have a what?" "A tail!" With that I turned and looked at my but, and I saw that I had a yellow, pink and purple tail. I let out a faint squeal. My friend, Tia came out, I looked at her, my eyes welling up with tears. She sat next to me. I said to her, "I have a PONY TAIL" She put her arm around me. "How about you get changed then we will think things through." I nodded then changed into pants and my fave top. I sat down and started to think things through, I can't go home, I need to live here until we fiber out how to change things. I calapsed onto the ground shaking it felt like my back was being riped apart and when that stopped I felt like my head was being pulled aparet. Tom was looking at me, "Erin, you have wings AND a horn!" I grabbed a knife and carefully took off my top. I cut holes in it for my wings to fit through. Tia then looked at me. "I need to admit something, I like MLP" Tom started to laugh then fell onto the floor holding his belly like it might burst. I looked at Tia, "who am I turning into?" She smiled, "you are turning into Princess Cadence, Alicorn of love." I looked at Tia, "How do I fly?" She smiled, "You need to be a pony to do so. You might be able to learn magic." I stood up, "I'm going to get water." I left with the water pot, I needed time to think and sum up what is happening. I am Erin. I am turning into a pony. Soon I will be called Princess Cadence. I have wings and a horn, and a ice creame tail. I might be dicected or tested on. I can't go home. I have to spend the rest of my life here. My friend Tia, has the best idea of what is happening to me, but she could be far far off from what is really happening. On the walk back I could hear better and I could move my ears, when I looked into the pot I had pony ears sticking out of there my normal ears should be, then I saw them slowley move, probably to the top of my head. Then I saw that I was turning bright pink. When I got back to camp I started to shake then I passed out. This was all to much for me to take in. When I woke up the sun was rising and I saw that my skin was bright pink and my feet and hands where no longer there, their where now HOVES! I got out of my tent and then I walked over to the log/chair. I saw Tia come out of her tent. She noticed me, WHO WOULDN'T. She sat next to me, "Hey Erin." "Hi, I HAVE HOVES, HOVES!" Tia's eyes went big looking at them, "and I am pink." Tia smiled, "I noticed that, and your hair matches your tail." Tom walked out of the tent, "Your pink." And with that I started to cry, tears pored down my cheeks and I held my head in my hoves. Tia pat my back, it didn't help much she still had hands. Tom started to cook up some meat and it smelt really strange, that bring on more tears. I stood up and then I fell face first. Tia looked sad for me. "You mind must be confused with your center of gravity." My body felt all tingly, and then my face turned a bit like a pony and so did my body. When I stood up I was unsteady and shorter. I went to where the food was kept and ate some lettuce and carats instead of the meat. My mind couldent register what is what's which made me tear up, there is no whay to stop it without me looking like a freak, no I am a freak. Tia helped me back over, Tom couldent find anything to lighten the mood. We sat there In silance, my body turning more and more like a ponies. I tried to levitate some stickes to put in the fire that Tom made I lifted them off the ground but after a few seconds I dropped them. Tia smiled at this, but I was disappointed in myself then all at once I was nolonger Erin but Princess Cadence. This all went to fast for me, for Tia, for Tom... Tia looked at me for a long long time she gave me a hug, just what I needed to be a ice cream coloured pony. Then Tia spoke, "It's your birthday today." Tom stood up and gave us two a each keys, "we better get moving to my cottage." I looked at him "don't you live with your parents?" He raised a eyebrow, "But my uncle passed away not to long ago and left me his off the grid cottage with a huge plot of land. Erin can't go back home, so we go there, it is about a 6 hour drive from here." I ran up and gave Tom a hug. Tia still wasent impressed. "What about your parents?" Tom smiled "It uses 3 diffrent keys to get through the only gate and it is slurp undead by a 5meter wall, it has a mini farm and I have the only keys to the gate, now only us three have the only keys to the house." > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- We packed up our camp or rather Tia and Tom packed up the camp, and I practiced levitation. We where packed and in Toms jeep in about 2 hours. I was resting along Tia's feet, I wanted to sit up but I might be spotted. When we left the reserve we turned on the radio and a announcement came on, "If anybody is turning into a pony, please report to your hospital so you can be safe, if anybody haste transformed into a pony they will be taken to a bace so they can find a cure." I started to shake at this, somepony has been discovered. About 2 hours into the trip Tia was pulling at her pants then I saw a flowing tail. She gasped, "I'm turning into Princess Celestia!" I looked up at her, a spoke next, "put a hood on and hide your tail." She did as I said and we sat in a awquard silence letting Tom drive. I fell asleep until Tia woke me up, she now had ears and her hair started to change color, "Erin, we are here." I jumped out and saw green rolling hills and in the distance I saw a wind turbine and not to far away lush green plants to eat like lettuce and flower beds. Before Tia could get out she started to grow her wings and a horn. Like mine where they where the same color as her skin, just hers where whiter. When we went inside the house I saw that it was 2 stories high with a basement. I ran upstairs and called one of the biggest room, Tom got the master room, it was his house after all. It was night fall but I couldn't fall asleep, Tom came inside my room, he stood in the doorway, I rolled over and said "You can come in Tom if you want to talk." He sat down on the bed and took a deep breath in, "the government are offering $25,000 for an ordinary pony, like a pegisi, unicorn or a normal pony, but they are offering 1,000,000 per Alicorn." I started to shake then he said, "there is more, to anyone holding more that one pony, it is a lifetime sentence to the human, death for the ponies. I have no plan for taking you in. Because... I love you." I looked at him then sighed "Do you love me or Cadence?" He smiled "No one else but you, Erin." He stood up then walked out, I had to take it all in, if I am found, I die, if I am taken in I am worth 1,000,000. Tom loves me. In the morning I walked down stairs and I ate some lettuce that I found in the fridge, it wasn't off. Tom then came downstairs and he couldn't look me in the eye. I levitated a salad out of the fridge and got a fork then took it upstairs to Tia. I knocked on the door. "Tia are you in there?" I opened the door then saw Tia with hooves and she was staring herself in the mirror, she was as white as snow. I asked her, "Are you alright?" "No I'm hideous, get out of my room!" I sat down on her bed, "Your not ugly at all, you just have hooves. You may look different but you are no different in your heart." "Your right Erin. Thanks for bring me up breakfast." She couldn't use toe fork. "I'm sorry about the fork, I thought that you might still have hands, here, let me help." I levitated the fork with some food on it over to her. She ate it, I fed her until it was all gorn. Tia blushed, "I will learn magic soon I promise" I smiled at her, "Don't worry, it will all come to you in time." We went downstairs together then I here'd a loud "FUCK" we then ran to help Tom. I saw a blue tail, then there was a buzz at the gate, he looked to us and tucked his tail in, he gestured for us to hide upstairs. He asked them who was it and they answered pony control. He let them through and meet them outside. He explained about his uncle and then when they asked if anyone els is here he said that his girlfriend was due to come up this afternoon. And he was just getting ready for her. They believed him and they left after writing his address down as checked. After they where long gorn he let his tail out and we came down. Tia's phone rang, it was her sister, she wanted to check on her and pleaded for her to be where she was. Tia caved in and Tom let her come, she would be here at midnight. Tia inspected to then looked between us a few times, then she spoke, "Do you love each other?" I spoke up first, "Yes" Tom nodded in agreement. Tia gave a explanation on everyone's backstory. I was shocked but believed it. I walked outside, the gate was not visible from where I was standing. I flapped my wings widely, then I started to flap them in a rhythm and I managed to get 2 feet off the ground. I saw Tom outside watching me, smiling. Then all of a sudden he fell on the ground and hearted holding his head I pushed his hands off and he relaxed and then he grew his horn and his ears had developed. Then the gate buzzed. > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom raced in to check who it was, it was Emma, still human. Tia who is now nearly a pony came down and started to tear up at the sight of Emma, she only just managed to make it to Tia, Tia said, "Emma, it's me Tia. It is really me I promise." Emma fell to her knees and lent on me to stay sitting. I looked down at her, "Emma? It's me Erin! I turned into a pony first, we have taken care of eachouther." Emma tried to stand up and turned to walk away, then I said, "Emma, you have a blue tail." Then everyone else noticed the bit do flowing blue hair. "Oh no I can't open my fists and I'm turning white!" I raced to Tom's side then I saw his hands slowly turn into hooves then his shoes broke reveling hooves there too. Emma looked horrified, "That's what's going to happen to me?!" She fainted and we went inside. I levitated Emma to the last room. Then I went into Tom's room and sat with him while he developed hooves, and fell asleep next to him. In the morning I saw not Tom but Shining Armer. I left to go to Tia's room and she was freaking out, I walked in then Tia looked at me, "GO AWAY!" I stepped back then checked on Emma, she was crying on her bed. I put a reassuring hoof on her back. "I won't let anything hurt you and I have to look after your sister who is freaking out in her room." She smiled then got up I saw that she was blue and still had her hands. Her hair was flowing and then she got up and we went to pick some food. We ate some of the food on the way to the house. Tom got up then started to eat with his face in the bowl. I lauded and levitated his head back. "Try this instead focus on what you want to levitate and use your will for it to move, after you lift it up it becomes easy." I saw him pick up a leaf then drop it on himself. Me and Emma couldn't help but laugh. Tom scowled "you didn't do much better on your first time Cadence." He covered his mouth with his hooves. Then my magic went out of control then I saw a window, I leaned closed, "most of the pony population are this creature. What do we do Aunt Celestia?" Wait was that me? "I don't know what we have to do Cadence... What's that? Celestia walked towards the window, I cowered back. "Why did you take my body?!" I looked at myself. I took a breath in "I didn't take your body, YOU HAVE MINE!" "Shining? Is that you? It's not." Celestia walked up to the window, "Cadence, well who is in her body can you step through?" I looked at her "no" "What? Do you know who I am?!" "Yes, but I am not going through, but I will do this." And then I shut the window, "I pray that never happens twice." "What's happening?" In that problem Emma developed hooves and her bones are changing. "Everything will be fine, why don't you lay down?" "Ok..." "Tom why don't you go and tell Tia?" He nodded and walked off "This will hurt." Tia came down and I saw her crying and tring to reverse what is happening to Emma. It worked! It actually worked! But I spoke to soon she had to go through it all faster and more painfully. Emma was a sobbing mess by the time it was done. I went to help her up and I was pushed back and pined to the wall by Tia. "Tia! Where all going through the same thing!" Emma was now more angry then sad. "Tia! Why did you do that to me, why are you doing that to Erin?" I saw a dark spark in her eyes."She is doing my job!" Emma shock her head, "She helped You, Tom and me, she doesn't want us to get hurt or scared, she was the first of us, she must have been terrified!" "She passed my line" This time Tom spoke up, "leave" Tia looked at him, "what did you just tell me?" "LEAVE, I invited you in here, to protect you, and this is how you treat me? Emma, she helps with the chores, Erin, she comped everyone when we where scared. And what did you do? Yell at us when we tried to help! Lock yourself in your room! You passed my line, now OUT!" Tia held her head high as Tom led her out, she didn't know how to fly only I did. I saw Tia walk then she was found and taken away. When I told them this Emma cried then I told her "If we didn't sent her out she would drive everyone out sooner or later." We went inside as it was starting to get dark. I made some flower sandwiches for all of us. After I went to bed and Tom walked inside, "Are you ok?" "Yes" "When I told her to go, I realized what you have done for all of us. You did such a good job taking care of us." "Thanks." Tom levitated a small box over. "I feel like we are meant to be together, you staid positive tring to look forward, you helped us and I feel like I can turn to you for help and guidance, even if you don't know what is going on, you help the best you can." He bowed down and smiled, "Will you marry me?" I was overwhelmed, then I knew how much we loved each outher "yes" he smiled and was happy, so happy. He opened the box and clipped the bracelet around my knee and it slipped down a bit. I smiled and he left me to sleep. > Chapter 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I walked out into the garden with Emma, then Tom came trotting out, "I think we should call eachouther by our pony names." I looked at them, "maby, what do you think Emma?" She thought about it for a wile, "Call me Luna." I smiled, "then it is settled." Shining armer went inside to keep an eye on things, "Now Luna, can you move your wings?" She moved them, "takes a little more thought than it should." I nodded then crouched down. "Now try flapping your wings in a rhythm like this" Luna then crouched down and jumped up then flapped and then she was a natural at it. "I'm flying?! I'M FLYING!! Yay" she was laughing and I landed and left her to it. Shining came up to me, "Cadence they doubled the reward, I don't think you should fly about. Your worth 2 million dollars! This is no joke! This is really isolated but every second that passes your in more and more danger!" "What do we do! We could be killed or inslaved!" "They want a Alicorn to represent the ponies, there is a group of people that no a prevention looking out for us, I said that I only live here, if they are real, then I will tell them about you." The intercoms went off and it was them the PRG, pony rights group. Me and Luna went upstairs and went into a hidden entrance into the attic. We where there for half an hour then we went downstairs. A middle aged women was there. She stared at me. "A Alicorn! Wait 2 Alicorns?!" I nodded and sat down on a chair. Luna layed down on the floor. Shining spoke up next, "Cadence, found out how to fly and use magic, she taught me and Luna all she knew, she was the first one of us to change." "Hello, my name is Rose, we found a cure but it only works on a very small amount of ponies, I think I can get Shining Armer to change back into Tom and do the same to Luna. But I am sorry, I can't change you back, I am so sorry." My ears flattened and Shining Armer spoke up "I will give up my cure for her!" Rose shock her head, "You changed AFTER her, she is no longer contagious but we don't know how to cure her at the moment. Oh I nearly forgot but you will have to live with your ears, tails, wings and horns forever. They will be the same color as now and your skin will be normal." Shining leaped up, "I will not be cured if she won't!" I looked at him, "Don't do this to yourself! With both of us ponies neither one of us will last long." Rose got up and put a needle in Luna's foreleg, and I held shining armer down with my magic, she did the same to him. She sat back down and they turned back, they did still have the horns and tails but they looked almost normal. I smiled at this. Tom picked me up and hugged me, it felt good, inside. He turned on the radio and there was a announcement "For the ponies in hiding, the PRG are giving some a antidote, to the rest, you will no longer be hunted down, for the ponies in hiding, the PRG are giving some a antidote to the rest you will no longer be hunted down. I wish all the unfortunate ponies who can't get the antidote good luck in having a normal life." There is no reason for us to be in hiding anymore. It this a dream or reality? Tom looked down at me, I was still in his arms. "We should wait a week before we go out. Boy do I miss meat!" For everyone but me it passed slowly to me the week passed fast. When the week ended, it was almost a year since it started. We where going to drop Emma home then go to my place and we will think about what we should do. I was asleep for most of the ride. Tom was stroking my mane during the ride, when we dropped Emma home, her parents rushed out to her, they didn't care about her ears, tail of wings Emma's and Toms horns are hidden by there hair. When I came home my parents didn't embrace me but ignored me, I spoke up "Mum, Dad it's me Erin? I'm back, I'm sorry I had to go, I didn't want them to find me!" They didn't answer but closed the door in my face. They didn't love me any more. I cried all the way to Tom's parents, the first reaction was hugs and kisses and then they asked why I wasn't home. I cried when they asked that. Tom explained for me and they let me stay. When it was dinner Ton asked his dad about his friends radio station, it turned out that they need quotes few people. They tried to find out about my parents but I just ended up crying. Then they asked why wasn't I cured, and did I not want to? With this I answered "they said that I was infected with a different bug, then Tom got a mutation of that bug." They understood that it wasn't my fault. Tom made a few calls and managed to get me an audition at the Radio station, I had to say a few lines and I had a call back, this time with the rival I was competing for the position. The boss was looking at me I stood tall and proud. When who I was competing agenst came in she laughed at me, "I'm fighting agenst this bug? They didn't want to cure her, while I didn't become a horse!" "I'm not a horse, I'm a pony, and not any regular pony I'm a Alicorn. No one likes you, eaven the virius that messed up my life didn't want you." The boss leaned back in his chair "this will be intresting." > Chapter 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- My new found enemy turned to the boss. "Why on earth would you hire her?" He roled his eyes, "everyone deserves a shot at life, and in this business you don't need looks you need a voice. And a good story can help." I circled her, "hmmm my story, I'm called Erin, me and my friends go camping, I turn into a pony. One of my friends taked me to his remote house, my friends turn into ponies, a new girl comes along, then one of my closest friends go crazy, I learn how to fly. Then the PRG come along, they haven't developed the right type of antidote for me, I go home, my parents reject me, then my friend Tom who said he loved me, when we first got to his house, takes me in, now I am here. I could write a book on my story. Your story, your a bitch fill in childhood here, comes and fights a pony to get a job, will fail. " "Your parents rejected you!" "When one door close many more open." The boss had enough, "ok how about you two sing for me." My enemy said "I will happily sing for you." She sang and stank. "My ears my ears make it stop! Please I'm begging you" "You sing better then." "Happily. 1...2...3... You shout it out, But I can't hear a word you say I'm talking loud not saying much I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet You shoot me down, but I get up I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose Fire away, fire away Ricochet, you take your aim Fire away, fire away You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium Cut me down But it's you who'll have further to fall Ghost town and haunted love Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones I'm talking loud not saying much I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose Fire away, fire away Ricochet, you take your aim Fire away, fire away You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium I am titanium I am titanium Stone-hard, machine gun Firing at the ones who run Stone-hard as bulletproof glass You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium I am titanium" I stuck my toung out at her, her jaw dropped. I turned to the boss and did a little bow. He looked at me and then said "when can you start?" "Today I just need to make a call" "Deal." I got out my cell phone and called my home number, my mum answered. "Hello?" "It's Erin" "We don't want a pony for a daughter!" "I just got a job BITCH." "What for?" "A radio station." "You can come back when you want to I miss you soo much" "Awwwww thanks but no, you had your chance." I walked out of the room and Tom saw me. "How did it go?" "I got the job!" I started to jump up and down. Tom scooped me up "when do you start?" "Today! You want to come with me?" "Ok" "Hello!" The bosses voice boomed over the working journest, some had tails and some didn't. "I have a new staff member for you, Erin" Someone called out "Aring in 5" The boss led me to a room where I was fitted with some headphones. "James this is your new coworker Erin." I sat up on the seet and said "Hi nice to meet you." "You to, they finally hired a pony." "Don't push it" "I want you to answer the question when I say them ok" "I'm not a baby." Aring is 2. A man comes in and hands us a script and I read over it. Aring in 30 seconds. I take a drink of water and James looks at me is amusement. "Good afternoon lady's and gentlemen. I have a new coworker her name is Erin and she has an intresting story of what hapened near the end of the incedent. Why don't you share it with us." "Hello James, the main thing is at the end, I as most of you I have a tail, when they came to where I was hiding my Boyfriend here and one outher pony could use the cure but they didn't have the cure for my mutation of the virius so I am still a pony, I have hooves horn and wings, so I am a Alicorn. "That must suck, being a pony." "It isn't to bad, I now have a job and I can move things around with magic." "Something else happened, you said it at this showdown for an intiview, your parents abandend you. How does that make you feel?" "I was really upset to start of with and then when I got th job I called them, they told me that they didn't want a pony for a daughter." "That barbaric." "There is more, when I told them that I had this job they said, exactly, you can come back when you want we miss you so much. About 3 seconds after they said they don't want a pony for a daughter. That happened 10 minets ago." "Wow" "I know, my so called parents are idiots" "Over half the population where ponies, you think they wouldn't care if you where a pony or not." "I wonder if their are lisining right now. What do you think they are thinking?" "I have no idea. But let's lighten the mood and put on a song Erin sang at the intiview." A man said "and we are off. A call is coming through." "And we are back, lets answer some calls. Our first caller is Jane." "HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT ME LIKE THAT ON THE RADIO!" "It is my job Jane" I started to laugh "I have a recording of the conversation on my phone, is it possible to get it on the air?" "Maby" "DON'T YOU PUT THAT ON THAT ON!" "Ohhhh it works." "Hello?" "It's Erin" "We don't want a pony for a daughter!" "I just got a job BITCH." "What for?" "A radio station." "You can come back when you want to I miss you soo much" "Awwwww thanks but no, you had your chance." James sat there in shock. Then Jane spoke "I WILL SUE YOU ERIN FOR THIS," "I want to see you try. Time for our next caller, Alice." "Hello James and Erin, I can't believe your mum would do that to you!" "Meh, it was worse when you had to spend a year apart, scared that the government will come and take me away." "Good bye, and have a nice day to you all." A man said, "now we are off" I left to go to a cafe down the road, I had a salad. When I was walking back home, I needed to cross a road and I was hit by a car, I couldn't feel my back legs and my front legs where distorted. I barely moved my legs out of the way when so many card drove past me. And so many people walked past me, some kicked me, some laughed at me, no one helped me. I was there in pain for at least 3 hours, I couldn't cry, I couldn't move. > Chapter 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was made to stare off into space, to hear people laugh at me. No one recognized me. I could move my eyes and that is it. Then someone stopped their car and picked me up, my ears where ringing, by then, I could only see. They put my in the frount seat, I fell off and let out a faint squeak. I was looking at the chair. When the ringing cleared up I was in a vets office. The man went up to the secretary and explained what happened, what he thought happened to her. We where rushed to a examination room. The radio station where I worked was on. The presenter, I didn't know who it was, said that James went to talk to me at my house, and I never came back. I tried my best to give a sign, that I was awake. All I managed was a faint flick of my tail. The vet looked me over and called the station. She explained that I was hit by a car, I was out there for at least a hour. The man who rescued me left. I never saw his face. Tom burst in and rushed to my side, it took me a wile to realize it was him. He started to cry I wanted to move my hoof, I did, about 1 inch. The vet told Tom that I was asleep, couldn't feel a thing. I moved my hoof a tiny bit but the vet noticed. She was taken back that I am awake. She gave me pain killers. I then could feel my back legs and could move more. The vet pulled and yanked on my back legs then put them in a cast. She did the same with my front legs. She then brushed all the blood that was on my fur off, and straightened my feathers which where all over the place. By then it didn't hurt, I was put on a drip and I had to stay overnight. In the morning Tom wasn't there but James, "You have an offer, to sing for a record label. I can take you there." The vet came in, "I put her in surgery and now she doesn't need casts on all but one of her legs, it would be to extreme to do the same to that leg. She can go, but she needs to take these painkillers with every meal today." She then left and James picked me up, paid for treating me and then we left to go to the record label. I fell asleep in the car, curled up in a ball, I was woken up by an awwww. It was the person at the gate. I let out a yawn and we where let through. I trotted out of the car and I was met by a posh lady she led me to a room with several men and women. In the center was a group of people, they sniggered when they saw me, "You said we may get a new member, we where expecting a person, at worse a human with a tail, not a pony!" A women looked at me then at the group, "take a look at this." It was my interview for station. A girl in the group said to me "so what she has a bite" then I sang on the tape. "What about image, and her story." A man spoke up next, "We will look into the antidote and her story good enough already." The group had 3 members in it 2 where quiet. The 3 asked me a question "Can you sing with us here and now." I smiled "What song?" "This song, here are the lyrics if you don't know them." She handed me a open notebook, I took it in my magic they where shocked at this, not many past unicorns could levitate. I took a breath in. 1...2...3... Does he tell you he loves you when you least expect it? Does he flutter your heart when he kisses your neck? No scientist or biology It's obvious when he's holding me It's only natural that I'm so affected And my heart won't beat again If I can't feel him in my veins No need to question, I already know It's in his DNA D-D-D-DNA It's in his DNA And he just takes my breath away B-b-b-breath away I feel it every day, And that's what makes a man Not hard to understand Perfect in every way I see it in his face Nothing more to say It's in his D-D-D-DNA It's the blue in his eyes that helps me see the future Fingerprints that leave me covered for days, yeah, hey, yeah Now I don't have any first degree But I know, what he does to me No need to work it out, it's so familiar, ooh, ooh, ooh And my heart won't beat again If I can't feel him in my veins No need to question, I already know It's in his DNA D-D-D-DNA It's in his DNA And he just takes my breath away B-b-b-breath away I feel it every day, And that's what makes a man Not hard to understand Perfect in every way I see it in his face Nothing more to say It's in his D-D-D-DNA The group just looked at me, "that was ok." A man spoke up, "that was better than any of you, you are ok she was great." "She out shines us." "She is a pony, she won't be the center of attenchion." "She will stand out, she is PINK!" I spoke up this time "don't push it" The quiet one spoke up, "she deserves a chance" Now the one who has been speaking turned on her, "she has a chance, she is on radio!" I spoke up now, "one thing leads to many more opotunitys in life, it is how you treat them." "Do you eaven have your own house?" "The bank won't give me a lown. I don't live with my parents though, they regected me because I am a pony." "Even her parents don't want her." A judge was about to speek up when another boy ran in, "I have the antidote you asked for." The judge said, "give it to her." I was jabbed with the needle. It started to look like it is working then my rightleg and right arm started to distort. I started to panic, everyone backed away from me and I was getting worce. I fell down and I started to relax, my right side was getting worce and worce. I was covered with a blanket, and I was given a drink. I levitated it and drank. I put down the glass Ana I then passed out. When I woke up I no longer had a pony body, that problem had passed. I stood up, I was in the room, it was early in the morning. The one from the group that stood up for me was asleep on the table. I found some clothes near me, I put them on and tried to get comefortable with my tail but my wings where covered so I couldn't stop moving them. Then all to fast I started to turn back. I couldn't stop crying and woke up the girl. She walked over to me and talked to me. "Hello, my name is Camryn, your Erin right?" "Yeh, I can't beleve I'm turning back" I started to shake. "I now understand why the didn't give you the antidote in the first place." And when she said that my legs split open and la wire covered in blood came out leaving me screaming in pain. "It's ok. It won't happen agen." When I stoped screaming my hands and feet started to fuze. "I guess I am stuck as a pony." My hair and skin started to change colour. "It won't kill you." "Says the one who was never a pony." "I was, I got it to go all curly so I could hide my ears." She pushed down her hair and I saw pink ears. "Ohh" I was nearly a pony agen when the rest of the group walked in. "WHAT she is turning agen? What is that?!" She was pointing to the wires. "I had broken my legs so they fixed it by putting the wires in, my body regected them." "Gross." "When they came out you could see bone." "Ewwww " "I guess it is a little gross." A woman walked in after I was back to a pony. "It didn't work did it?" "I changed back." I said "I just had a press conference and I announced a new member." The woman told us "We will have to have a special show." Said the person who didn't want me. "Lets get to work!" Camryn said excited. We had our introductions then we chose the song that I will sing: Drop That Bass We corigrafed it and practiced it, it was perfect. Then the day came, I was shaking as we arrived at the stage. I was covered up, and we went into the room behind the stage. A presenter walked onstage, "now the question you have all been wondering, who is the new member of Shell? Well here is Shell!" They all ran onstage and started to sing the first verse. Hey, hey, how's it going Wats up with the long face I I I don't know, Sudnley feel out of place They they try to knock me down, We we got what you need Come with us for your whay out. BANG!!! A gunshot went of and panic raised, i was shot with a tranquilizer and I was knocked out. > Chapter 7 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I slowley woke up in a clear glass cell. I turned over then I saw scientist watching me with an eagle eye. I jumped to my hooves and inspected the cage. I then yelled at them, "What did you do with Tom, or Camran?!" A man looked up, "Tom is not a consern to us, Camran knows to much, she is in the cell next to you." A woman spoke, I am in charge of you, my name is Opal could you levitate something for us?" I looked at her, "no." She blinked, "What!?" "I said no" "Why not?" "If I am stuck like this, why would I do what you tell me?" "We could kill you!" "You would never let me go." "We would try and cure you!" "People already tried!" "We haven't!" "How can I trust you?" Opal sighed and showed am a tape. It was Equestria. "We can create a new pony body for you so you can live there." "I want to go back to being a human!" "We can try but it is not likely to happen!" "Well make it happen!" A man spoke to Opal, "Shall we get a table ready?" Opal thought for a moment, "No too many people know her, give her the cure, the newest one." Befor I could object I was jabbed and my body started to turn back, I was human agen. The only new side affect was that I had the same colour eyes as my pony. They made shore that it worked for a few days before I was free, Camran was never let out. I walked in the streets, then I noticed that not many people with tails where out. I went to Tom's place first. A old man answered, "who is it?" I looked at him, "is Tom here?" Then the old man just said, "that's me, who are you?" "I'm Erin, sorry I am looking for another Tom." "Erin? It it really you?" "Why, you know me?" "You where missing for 37 years!" "37 years, I was in the cell for 37 days, how can I trust you are the Tom I am looking for?" "We went camping, and then you started to turn into a pony. We then left to go to my uncle's house. Then Tia turned into a pony, I was starting to turn then Tia's sister joined us. Tia went mad then a women came to us with the cure, and you couldn't be cured. Your parents regect you then you got a job a radio station. You then where performing with shell and you where shot. That was the last I saw of you, until now" "You are Tom!" He opened his arms and I fell into them crying. He led me inside and he told me something that I would never forget. "Erin, I love you, but you shouldn't keep on loving me, I am to old and I will be taken away soon. If someone truly loves you, don't turn them down." "I will never love someone as much as I love you." "Please do it for me?" I nodded then he gave me a envelop. "Go buy yourself a house." I left and walked down the street. People looked at me, I was young and with a tail. I walked up to the real-estate and a high rise apartment building was recently built. I looked at the envelop, it had over 4 million in there, I nearly dropped the envelop, a van then passed with a sign, Old Eternity Home, I did not know what it was, but I knew that he wasn't coming back, this was all his money. I walked around and saw a large apartment 1 million dollars. I asked for a tour of the house. It was very posh, and had a nice view, I also could move in as soon as I paid the money. I forked over the money. I got the keys and then I opened a bank account. I put all but $2000 in there, I got the apartment furnished so that was one less thing I had to worry about. I went into the apartment and cried myself to sleep about Tom.
