> How my life changed when I became Vinyl Scratch > by Vinyl-ScratchDJ17 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Three months after it began... > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey, I'm Seth. Seth Rogan. Well not the Seth Rogan, but my parents just decided to name me after him in hopes that I may grow to lead a successful, just like him, but that hasn't happened yet, nor will it ever happen. I'm just one of your typical sixteen year old closet bronies, that I only tell my secret to others who may be bronies, and or pegasisters of the show: "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." I'm not an obsessed brony or anything, I just happen to like the show, and I have made a few oc's, and thought of making a first fanfiction, but that was until...it...happened. I was just casually watching the news with my old man, when they...appeared. It was part of a breaking news coverage thing, and up on a podium, were two alicorns, in all their beauty. Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. Seeing them up on the podium was just mind wracking, and when Celestia begun to speak, it just blew me away. Luna never spoke, but still. My dad looked at me with much confusion in his eyes, as I did. He turned his head back to the screen, and fumbled the remote in his hands as if he were going to change the channel, but with being so shocked he couldn't work his fingers right and gave up, as we listened to Celestia speak. She was talking about how she was really Lauren Faust, who had turned into Princess Celestia, and how Luna was the same thing, but it was Tara strong who had become Luna, but why Luna? Ah forget it, it's just all too confusing. Any way she went on about how everyday, more and more people would be affected by this, and that she wanted and Elements of harmony to travel to New York to fight off Discord who they believe is responsible for this mess. Eventually she ended by saying "No further comment." As she and Tara walk off the podium, heads hung low. Once again, dad looks to me like what dafuq? He isn't a brony. He knows what My Little Pony is, and he hates it. Just the name itself he hates. He takes a deep breath, and finally gains control of his actions, and turns off the T.V, after running his fingers over the buttons on the remote, in search of the power button. The television set makes a clicking sound, as it shuts down. He gets up from his chair, and stretches, and let's out a big yawn, due to the time being 11:45 pm. He usually crashes for the night at around nine or eight. ME on the other hand, I stay awake till I can't keep my eyes open anymore. He stops stretching and speaks. "Yeah, like that'll ever happen!" He says, going off to his room, to get some shuteye, but to only find that the nest day, There was somebody who had been turned into SpitFire. It just so happens I found out that it was my friend Kayden Heart. He was usually a strong person, when it comes to witts, but not strengths. So he had a hard time since he was the one of the first to be changed. So obviously, I was the true friend I am, and tried my best to support him, who is now a her. He was flipping out when I first tried to talk to him, so I delivered a good slap to his face, and hugged him/her. It felt really, really weird though. But yeah you get the gist. People are turning into ponies, and nobody knows who is next in line. About three months later I thought it wouldn't happen to me, but that's when it did. I became the first in my family to be turned into a pony. Lucky me. It was just another day at school when it had happened. I had gotten used to other kids being turned into ponies, and still coming to school. They had gotten picked on and whatnot, so I tried a little bit to help. Anyway, it was passing time to 5th hour. Lunch had just ended. I had to use the bathroom, so I went and stuff. After I was done with my business, I put in my earbuds, and turned on my phone. I went to my youtube page, and I put on a Vinyl Scratch playlist, when I began to feel dizzy, as I headed away from the stall I had used. Right then and there, I had passed out, with another guy in the bathroom. Not the best time, and place for it to happen either. I was nudged awake by a foot to my shoulder. I opened my eyes to see some dude kicking me. I groan, a bit, as I sat up. I rubbed my eyes with my hands, well at least I thought they were hands. To my surprise, when I didn't feel fingers, I was about to flip like Kayden, but then i had remembered the whole situation of people turning into ponies. I was very unprepared for this still, but knowing it was gonna happen sooner or later. I sit there silently, staring at myself, and taking note of any detail I could find. I was a pure white color, I had a musical-like symbol for a cutie mark, and a tail with two different hues of blue. Then I look up to the boy who woke me up. He is wearing a blue hoodie, with a bvb symbol on it. Why isn't the hoodie black then? But the color of clothing is the least of my worries. He has short blonde hair, and is wearing glasses. He just stares down on me, as if he has no idea what to say. I attempt to get up, but only to fail, and fall on my face. Whoever's face this is. "Ow!" I pout, rubbing my muzzle with my hooves, and returning to sitting up. But that's not my voice! Eh well can't expect it to be, but the voice is so familiar, and everything else that goes with it. I shrug it off, and try getting up again, but with the other dudes help. I'm now standing on all fours, and now he finally talks. "Hey there." "Fuck it happened to me now." I say before letting out a long deep sigh. "Yeah...it did." He responds. "Fuuuck!" I pout again as that very familiar voice comes again. I walk over to the mirror, somehow flawlessly, for my first time as a pony. I'm not high enough to see my reflection, so I hop my forelegs up, and I rest them on the wall, and I get a perfect look at who I have become. Vinyl Scratch. How lucky, because Vinyl, is actually my favorite pony out of the whole show! I like know everything about her! It would take me an hour to tell somebody how much I knew about Vinyl. I'm always listening to her songs and what not, cause they are just so damn catchy! Well The Dj is quite a music experience. "Do you know who you are?" The other kid asks, standing next to me. "Yes I do." I say, dropping down from the mirror. "I have become The pony known as Vinyl Scratch." Now that I know who I am, i'm not bothered by the voice anymore. "Okay cool...I guess. Well I have to go to class. I'm late due to waking you up." He says, and with that he leaves. "Well buck me." Yes I said buck cause I'm trying to make light of this situation. I sigh again, and I make my way out of the bathroom, only to bump into none other than Kayden, or should I say SpitFire? He falls over from the sudden Impact, as to where I don't get phased at all. She grunts as she struggles to get up., and dusts herself off with a hoof, and turns to me, with much anger in her eyes. I can tell she isn't too happy about being knocked clean over, and all the while, I'm the only one around, and still standing, so it must have seemed like I shoved her on purpose. Then she tackles me, and brings her face close to mine, and I can feel her breath go down my neck "Dude what is your problem?! she shouts, and spit flies from her mouth and onto me. "Hey I-I didn't mean to! I just came out of the bathroom, then boom! I reply. "Yeah sure." SpitFire replies getting off of me. I sigh. "What?" She snaps. "Dude. it's me Kayden!" I say, my voice trembling a bit. I didn't really want him to find out, but he was going to anyway. As if being a pony for a mere couple minutes, with a new voice, is helping my situation. "Don't lie to me, or i will hurt you severely." "Kayden...you've changed. You're letting this whole being a pony thing get to you." "I don't know what you're talking about." "It's me. Seth." I say shamefully, as I hang my head low. "What really? It finally happened to you too?!" A sudden grin spreads across her face. "Yeah. Well we better get going. We're late for Biology." I say as I begin walking, and Kayden follows behind me. We both walk without saying a word, and I still feel so ashamed. My dad's not gonna be happy about this. Finding out his son had become of the people who had turned into ponies. We make our way through several different hallways, and up a couple flights of steps to the science floor. We walk down the hall, which is lined with blue lockers all the way to the end. I spot a bubbler a few feet ahead and I stop to take a drink. I rear up on my hind legs like before, while I press my forelegs into the button, and the stream of water flows out. I'm just able to reach it, as I take in a good amount of H2o. From there, we make the rest of the way to our class. We walk into the room, as Mrs. Angie sees us. She had been turned pony too. She is a light blue unicorn, with a yellow mane and tail, with a light bulb for a cutie mark. She scoffs at the fact that we are like ten minutes late. She turns to her computer and does blabbidy balh, cause I don't give a rats ass right now. Then she looks back to us. "So nice of you to join us Kayden. Do you have a late slip? She asks. "Nope." He says shaking his head. "One more time, and It's a phone call to your parents. "Like I care? I have been through more than a stupid phone call, so go ahead if you really want to." HE says before going to sit in his desk. "And who might you be?" She asks, turning her attention towards me. "Seth Rogan." I say quietly enough just for her to hear. "So I see, you've turned too then huh?" She aks. I just nod. "I'll excuse you for today then since it wasn't your fault...for once." She mumbles that last part under her breath, but I still hear it. I just don't say anything because I'm in enough shit as it is. I walk over to sit in the seat next to Kayden. I look down, as I play with my hooves a bit, trying to get more used to them, when I hear the sound of the door closing. I look straight up, and my ears turn to face the source of the sound. I see that Angie had used her magic to shut it. I look down again, as tears well up in my eyes. I try to fight them back, and thankfully none of my tears fall. "It's gonna be alright dude." Kayden says, patting my back. "No it's not. My dad's not gonna be happy when he finds out that I'm one of them." "Bah, he'll get over it. I did in only three months." he says chuckling after. "I'm not you though." I reply, still looking down. I should be happy I get to be my favorite character, but the fact of dad not being happy with it, just makes it horrible. biology went by with a bunch of stupid reading, then I had small engines, which I was no help at all to my 'still human' partner. I still haven't tried using magic yet, so bummer. Like there are several tiny pieces, that I wouldn't be able to grab without fingers. It sucks cause small engines is also my favorite class, and my partner didn't take to well with me being a pony all of a sudden. Seriously, we just talked during lunch before I had even gone to the bathroom. The last class of the day we are just studying how some random crazy complex shit works, that I don't even get. Sadly, Biology is my only class with my only friend, Kayden. Finally after what seems to have been hours, the bell rings and school is let out for the day, Students flood the hall way, and at least a third of them were ponies. I have hated Discord, now I hate him more. He has ruined my life!! Now I kinda wish I was an element of harmony so I could be there to give him the opposite of harmony, but then again, I'm not too fond of any other characters besides Vinyl, because vinyl Scratch is bae. I walk outside through the front door, and I see my dad across the street, waiting like every other day in his black Subaru WRX STI. I slowly make my way to the car without making it look obvious to him, as to who I really am. I notice he's on the phone, and when he's on it, his peripheral vision, is limited to the size of his phone, and his hearing goes deaf, so I take this to my advantage to sneak inside without him seeing. Luckily, I wasn't stopped at all today by any Vinyl Scratch fans, because this late into the whole humans becoming ponies from the show tells others that you aren't the real one so thank heavens for that. I try to open the door with my hooves, but it proves to be a worthless attempt, so I finally decide to try magic. I close my eyes, and focus on the door handle opening. I open my eyes to see it didn't work. Then I see the door is locked, so I try again, but on the locking pin thing. I watch as it glows blue, and rises up, with a click. It worked!! Now to open the door. I once again focus on the handle, and the door opens the slightest bit. From there, I use a hoof to pull it open. Then I sit, and use magic to close the door, and buckle myself in at the same time. Wow this is easier than I thought! But then dad sees me... "Um...do I know you?" He asks. I simply sigh and nod, while looking down again, and closing my eyes. "N-no. Don't tell me. Well fuck! now my only son has become one of them...things!" He shouts to himself. I feel my ears go flat against my head, "Yes, now can we just go home now?" I ask impatiently. He simply grunts, and we drive off. "Come on seriously? You went three months! Only three?! That's just sad Seth. You know, I'm not gonna call you Seth anymore. You disappoint me." He says, just staring out to the road. "Not like I chose to turn all of a sudden." I mumble. "Well you didn't choose not to either." He scoffs "Really?" I ask, raising my voice. "You sound so pathetic. Well that's all you are now, is pathetic." His words sink deep into me, and with each one feeling like a knife being driven into my heart. "Well fine then be that way you prick!" I shout using magic to stop the car, unbuckle, and open the door at the same time, as I leave the car. Now I begin my walking, as dad flips me off, and speeds home. Well this is a great first day as my favorite pony. I walk onto the sidewalk from the road, and begin walking the rest of the way home. "What's his problem?" I ask myself, kicking a can on the sidewalk. Eventually, I make my way home, and my hind legs are killing me, and I'm practically out of breath. To my luck, dad isn't home. I go up to my room right away, avoiding my mother. I check the time on my wall clock. 8:32 pm. 5 miles. I crash onto my bed, and soon I'm out. So much for first day as Vinyl Scratch. First it was passing out in the bathroom, then waking up a female pony, then to find I'm Vinyl Scratch to be exact. Next it was almost getting my head torn off by my own friend. Then it was the last few boring hours of school, to be picked by my dad who had to be a complete asshole!! Finally it was walking five miles home, alone. I think about that video I saw of Lauren and Tara as the princesses, and they said to come to New York city. Heh not gonna happen. Just walking five miles was hard enough, why thank you very much! This all adds to one simple conclusion by the way, and that conclusion is: "Buck my life." > Day two as DJ-PON-3, and meeting Rainbow Dash > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I open my eyes, as I wake from my twelve hour long hibernation. Not only did I wake up, but I notice I'm being violently shaken. I turn around, to get a look at who's shaking me, to see my dad, rapping at my right foreleg. I swat at his arms to get him to stop but he continues. This dude really wants to die doesn't he? YEsterday, he was being the biggest dick in the world, not he's still going at it? Ugh what is his problem with me now? YEsterday, we were like best buds, now it's as if we have been bitter enemies since first sight. Well either way, I'm getting to the bottom of this, cause this is enough. He continues shaking me. "Wake up, you piece of shit!" He shouts at me. "Yeah I'm awake!! I'm awake!!" I snap back, causing me to earn a hard slap to the face. "Don't Raise your voice at me! You're just lucky I'm still allowing you to live under this roof!! He roars, about two inches from my face. "Yeah sure, but brush your teeth at least!" I say waving my hoof in the air to get rid of the stench. "You don't tell me what to do! As far as I know, you are no longer my son." He glares at me for a moment longer, before turning and walking out the door. Why? What did I do to deserve this? It wasn't my fault I had turned into a pony! Who does he think he is? I just curl up under my blankets again. I fell the tears welling up again, but this time I can't stop them, as they flow out of my eyes. I recall yesterday, I was leaving the bathroom, and I had put on some Vinyl Scratch songs, when I had fainted, and woke up AS Vinyl Scratch. Then everything went downhill from there. The worst part is I don't have those purple shades. I dry my cheeks now that the tears had stopped flowing, and I get up out of bed. I look at the clock on the wall. 6:26am. Ugh I have to leave in fourteen minutes. Should I even put clothes on? I mean, I am a pony now so. I open my dresser drawer with all my clothes in it, via magic. I take out a plain blue shirt, that's just a...plain blue shirt, I guess. I slip it on, to find it was much to big for me to wear, so we can scratch the idea of clothes. I head for the door, and right before, I even make an attempt to open it, it swings open, and in the doorway is my mother. She stares at me, with disbelief in her eyes. I smile slightly, which must have freaked her out since she squealed a bit, She takes a closer look at me, then her eyes roll back into her head, as she begins to fall back, so I use my magic to keep her from hitting the floor. Still keeping her in my magic, I float her over to the living room couch, and I set her down. She wakes up slowly. I trot into the kitchen, where dad happens to be too. I walk past him, and in front of a counter. I use magic to open it, and I carefully lift a glass out of the cupboard. Then I bring it over to the sink where I turn on the cold water, and I fill the glass with it, when dad finally sees what I'M doing, and he snatches the glass from my magical grasp, and he dumps the water down the sink. He glares at me, and tosses the glass into the sink. Then he points a finger at me. "What do you think you're doing?" He asks. I gulp, as I search for words to use, and how to word them out. "M-mom fainted, ...s-so I was getting her some water, c-cause she just woke u-...up." I gulp again as he kneels down in front of me. "What happened to you? I used to love you, now I just can't, and I refuse to. He says, standing back up, then kicking me in the chest with his foot. I collapse to the ground, now with the wind knocked out of me, as I gasp for air, while tending to my throbbing chest. "You're so weak." He says shaking his head, then walking out of the kitchen. I lay there for what seems to be forever, before I can gather myself up. Why does he hate me so much now? What did I do that was so wrong? I just don't get it. I'm breathing a bit heavily now, due to the fact, I had been suffocating for a good minute or two, and now my chest was just killing me. I stand there, and wait til I can get my breathing to return back to normal. Then I walk out to the living room, where mom sees me again. This time she doesn't pass out. She shouldn't have since ponies have been here for a good quarter year now. I just still can't get y head around why dad hates me all of a sudden. "W-who are you?" She asks, pointing a finger at me. I walk over to the couch and sit next to her. "Hey mom." I say without looking at her. "Seth?" she asks, reaching a hand out to rub my blue mane, and I just simply nod. "Y-you're not going to beat me too are you?" I ask, my voice still a bit shaky from being kicked. "No! Why on earth would I do that for?" She asks with a concerned tone in her voice. "Dad seems to think it's fun, by kicking me." "What!? Where did he kick you? "My chest. I-it doesn't matter." I reply. "I-I should get going or I'll be late for school." I say shamefully, as I get up from the couch. I head over to the door, and, I pull my backpack out from under the table, and I swing it onto my back. I sigh and look down at my hooves. I've wished of the chance to see Vinyl Scratch, but not only am I seeing her, I am her. Now that I am, my father has become abusive towards me, and just like that, any care he had for me, was flushed down the toilet. I look up again, to see ma, had somehow, gotten in front of me without making a sound. She kneels down in front of me, and hugs me tight, so I hug her back. At least I know my mother still cares about me, unlike my father. When we finish hugging, she hurries me out the door, without a word, and then leads me to the car. We get in, and as we begin to pull out, dad comes out of the house...with a gun? He points it at the car, but I know what he's pointing it at. He's pointing it at me! I close my eyes, waiting for a loud gun shot to be made, and my body be sliced open by the round metal projectile. Mom continues to pull out as fast as possible. I open my eyes to see dad, hitting the gun against his hand. It must be jammed. I use my magic on it to take it, and luckily I was able to remove it from his grasp, but with how far he was, I wasn't able to keep a hold on it. We speed off from there. We drive for what seems like hours, when we finally get to the school, but...she keeps going. "Uh ma...you missed the school." I say nervously. "You're not going to school." She says blankly. "Where are we going then?" "New York." she replies. "Why? Only the elements of harmony are supposed to go." I protest. "I'm not bringing you for them, I'm taking you, so we can get you back to normal...hopefully." "Okay." I sigh. Since it's so dark out, I can see my reflection in the window. A blue-maned unicorn with red trimmed eyes. "Are you gonna be okay?" Mom asks me worryingly. "I Don't know." After a few hours of driving, and nothing to keep us entertained, we suddenly feel hungry, so we pull into the nearest gas station. Mom fills up the fuel tank, then heads inside. I stayed inside due to not wanting too much attention. By now the sun is high in the sky, and shines beautifully down onto the ground, and the smell of diesel fills the air. I wait in the car for what seems to be about fifteen ish minutes maybe. Ugh where is that woman? Is the place making whatever it is she is getting? Or did she go to the bathroom, and get stuck in the toilet. After a few minutes of waiting I get out of the car and head inside. It's cold in here, and smells like there's a bunch of dead bodies piled up somewhere. I walk through each of the aisles, hooves making small clopping sounds with each step. I have been through the snacks aisle, then the junk food aisle, and now I'm coming to what seems like the chips aisle, when I hear a very familiar voice, It was a slight groan, and it wasn't mom either. I turn to the aisle, and see another pony, but this isn't just a pony. It's a cyan blue pegasus, with a rainbow colored mane and tail. Rainbow Dash. Or whoever it is that turned into Rainbow dash, more correctly, weather it be a boy or girl who turned into her. That doesn't matter now. I walk up to him/her. "Hey." Dash turns to look who had said 'Hey' to her. "Vinyl?" Whoever is in Rainbow's body asks. I nod. "Well Seth Rogan is my actual name." I say chuckling a bit. "NO WAY!! The Seth Rogan?!" "No. I get that a lot though." I smile slightly. "So you heading to New York?" "Yeah. I don't want to, but I guess I'm being forced to put my life on the line now that I turned into Rainbow Dash." After that she let's out a deep sigh. "Always wanted to become Dash, but now that I have to risk my life in return...I wish it never happened." "I know how you feel because You know who, was my fav character, now I'm wishing it never happened either." "It's a tough life I guess." She replies, and we both laugh a it from it. "So what is your actual name?" I ask "Brent Michaelson." "Wow. Sounds scary." I say smiling a bit. "Yeah just like you, I get that a lot. Seems as though we have quite a bit in common." Brent says. "I guess so. But shouldn't you have been there already?" Oops! i wish I hadn't of said that. "That's the thing dude. I'm Equestria's best flier, but I have no idea how to fly in the first place." "Yeah, well, anyway I gotta look for my mom. She's been here for Celestia knows how long." I say bumping my foreleg on Brent's. "Hey. get the joke?" "Yeah, but I thought you were good with DJ's, and not jokes." He giggles a bit. That's the only thing really that I like about Rainbow Dash. It's just that voice. "Hey we're headed to New York as well. Wanna join us?" I ask the rainbow colored mareman. oh wow what a bad pun that is. "Sure as hell beats walking." He smiles "Thanks." "No prob Rainbow Dash. Ha I just had to do that since you called me Vinyl before." We both share another laugh, as we talk more, and as we look for my mom, who we find by the dairy product, still human thank goodness. I go over to her, and I tell her that Brent will be coming with us, being an element of harmony, and what not. Eventually, mom gets what she wants to buy, including food, and after buying everything, we head out to the car. I help mom with all the food and etc. stuff, by placing them in the car with my magical magic. Mom Get's in, but me and Brent just chat for bit longer as we slowly make out way to the car. "Hey seth, since your Vinyl, I'm sure you can drop some sort of a beat for me right?" "I don't knooww. It seems kinda haarrdd." I say jokingly. "Awe come on just do it!" He pouts. "Okay then." I say then taking in a deep breath. "I'm the D, to the J, to the P-O-N-3, ain't no other pony able to drop a beat like me, say what?!" I don't know how I did it, but I was able to come up with that as I went, and it came out in under ten seconds flat, and had to be 20% cooler than any other short beat I've heard in my life. YEah more unintentional puns, that I had not planned on making. And on that last part, I stood up on only my hind legs, and crossed my forelegs over my still hurting chest. Damn you dad. I don't know what's going to happen on thi journey, but I sure hope it doesn't involve getting kicked in the chest anymore. "Dude, that was sick!" Brent exclaims, as he climbs into the backseat, and I sit in the front passenger seat. "I try. ONWARD AND FORWARD ON, TO NEW YORK CITY!!" I shout, as om begins to speed off a little, since we are out in the middle of nowhere, and the fact that this car has a little speed to it. Once again we drive until we need to refuel again, and having Brent along made things more interesting, and we've all gotten along quite well. By now, it's dark outside, and we are at least half way to New York city. No idea what will happen when we get there, but we shall find out when we do. This whole trip has been quite the experience, except for the part about getting kicked. yes I just brought that up again. Something funny is that I'm listening to more Vinyl Scratch. So basically, I'm listening to my own music. So now I look exactly like the actual Dj-PON-3 with the way I'm bobbing my head with a straight face to my own music. This is one of the songs that I like to listen to: Spin that record Vinyl Scratch. It has to be the best Dj track I have ever heard in my life. Now I've gone From simple bobbing, to full blown head banging, as my blue mane bounces around back and forth. I'm just digging this beat way too much. I have always been this way when it comes to techno, and Dj. I don't exactly know why, but it just makes me feel so complete on the inside, since I don't really enjoy things this much. I stop head banging for a moment to look around the car. Mom seems to hear the beat through my headphones, and is slightly bobbing her head too, so I decide to share the fun. I start the song over, nad set it to full blast, and I take out the headphones, but I leave it on pause for a moment. "Are you bitches ready for some wubsome destruction?!" I shout turning to Brent who seems to be passing out, but is suddenly awake at the fact that I just did a perfect Vinyl Scratch impression, then I unpause it, and the music begins. "Wub-a-dub-dub mutha-fuckahs!!" I shout as the bass kicks in. I look at mom who is having a hard time not laughing at my silliness, while Brent is laughing his flank off. The music booms in the car, and sets us from 'ready to pass out' to 'ready to pass'. I on one hand, am fully awake. Now that I'm Vinyl, I have to at least act like her in someways sometimes. Now we are all head banging for four minutes until the song is over. So then I put on the next song on mind: In for the kill (Octavia vs. Vinyl Scratch). Oh now I wish Octavia were here. That would be the best thing ever. Even though I don't know the real Octavia, but just for competition. This time we don't head bang, cause this isn't a head banging type song. But nevertheless, we still enjoyed it. After the song was over mom said she had a headache from all of the head banging, so I shut off my portable wub machine. Otherwise known as a phone. Eventually we begin to feel sleepy all over again. The first to pass, was Brent, as he/she lays in the back seat, just leaving me and mom. I had almost fell asleep tree times already, but i have to stay awake to make sure mom doesn't fall asleep. I see mom slump forward in her seat, then only to shoot straight back up. At some point she does fall asleep at the wheel, so I had to wake her up. After repeating this process quite a few times, we come to a motel, where we crash for the night. We don't rent a room, we just park, and sleep in the car, and there you go. Well, I just have to say, that was one of the best times of my life. > On the road again > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- When morning came I woke to some sort of a tapping feeling on my shoulder. I turn around to face whatever was tapping me, and as I slowly opened my eyes, I saw a very concerned Rainbow dash. He's moving his mouth as if trying to make words, but only to fail, as small utters come out. I look at him with a puzzled look, as to what he's trying to get at. When he finally notices I'm looking, h points a foo in the direction of the drivers seat. I turn my head to see my mother, but for my vision to meet with an orange pony, with a blonde mane, and tail. It's...Applejack...but why is she there and not my mom? Wait. FUCK! it is mom, but she's turned into Applejack, and is fast asleep. This is not good. No this is not good. I don't believe this. I won't. How are we supposed to get to New York now? Another thing. She's Applejack. An element of harmony! Do I wake her up? How will she react? Oh well she's gonna get up sometime. I look back to Brent, and he just simply nods. I nod back, and I turn back to the sleeping orange earth pony, snoring away. I reach a hoof out to poke her shoulder., but I sop right before making contact. I hesitate, then I nudge her once, which is good enough because she opens her giant forest green eyes, and she turns to look at me. "H-hey mom! I say a bit awkwardly. "What are ya star-" She cuts off short, noticing her voice wasn't right. Yeah, The difference between her voice an Applejacks voice is waay different. Right away she brings a hoof to her mouth without knowing it's a hoof. Her eyes shrink to the size of a penny, and by that I can tell she's about to freak out, and none of us need that thus early in the morning. So I lean over to her, and keep her from looking at her hand which is now actually Applejack's hoof, and I put my other hoof on her shoulder. "Hey mom, don't freak out because,,.uh it's kinda hard to explain, but..." I say showing her, her new hoof. Her face goes blank, and I can just see the color flow out of her eyes, and her breathing accelerates. "N-no, this can't be happenin'!" She pouts, as she hangs her head in shame. "How are we suppose' ta get ta New York now?" "I don't know. I think we should just start walking. Oh and by the way...I hate to break it to you, but um..." I say nervously, but I can't seem to finish. "You're an element of harmony!" Brent speaks up, standing on his hind legs, in between the to front seats, with his forelegs over the tops of the seats. "What?! No ah'm not goin' then. Ah ain't having mah life flipped upside down, then ta be told ta risk my life because ah am now a so called element of harmony." Mom says, leaning back into the seat, and crossing her forelegs over her chest. "An why do ah have this accent now?" "Mom, you turned into Applejack, the element of honesty, and yeah she ha a southern accent." I say with a smile. "Speaking of voices. I love mine! I love everything about me now." Normally, being turned into a pony would piss me off, but since it's Vinyl Scratch, it's the best and worst thing that has ever happened to me, but I'm just not used to that extra appendage, near the down south area. I think you guys know what I'm talking about, plus the fact that I'm also missing one in that area too. Now, about the ears, that doesn't bug me really, it just feels funny, when they move around and stuff. Now when it comes to the horn, It's just awesome in every way, because I posses the power of magic. I just wish I had those awesome purple shades, and I would be complete. "Soo, what now?" Brent asks, sitting back down. "Not sure bud." I reply. "Wubs anybody?" I ask waving my phone around a little bit. "Not now." Mom protests. ` "Awe come on, I live for this stuff!" I pout. "You mean she lives for that stuff." She scoffs. "You know what I meant." "But who are you? Are you, you, or are you her?" She glares at me. "See that's the thing mom. We practically share the same mind!" "What does that mean?" She says glaring at me. "Great now that you've turned into Applejack, you're turning into dad at the same time. I don't need this." I say getting out of the car, and I continue walking down the road. Said I wouldn't do it, but, either I stay with dad, or go back to dad at home. I sigh, as I keep walking. A few seconds later, Brent is running to my side. God the heat. It's so hot out, and being covered in fur doesn't help. I feel like an oven right now. Put an egg on my back, and I could guarantee that they would begin to cook, and in no time you'd be having a nice plate of sunnyside up eggs. "Hey, Seth where are you going?" Brent asks. "I'm going to New York." "Yeah, but why are you leaving us?" "Suddenly, a certain somepony, doesn't approve of my taste for music, or me as a matter of fact. Just like my cheap, piece of shit asshole of a father." "Dude, I'm sure she didn't mean it. I mean she just woke up you know, in the body of Applejack. Of course she's gonna be upset." "I know, but she doesn't have to treat me like that. She knows I myself am having a hard time." Suddenly I have the urge to just punch the nearest thing in the face, and that thing is walking right next to me. He sighs, and steps in front of me. "Look, who knows what's out there man. There could be people who haven't turned yet, and might have intentions to kill anypony that goes near them. You can't go out there alone dude. I won't allow it." He says stomping a hoof into the ground. "I see why you turned into Rainbow Dash now." I say giggling. "What do you mean?" He says giving me a puzzled face. "Miss loyalty." I say bowing. "Yeah, yeah whatever." He says rolling his eyes. He acts just like Rainbow would, so it's hard to even tell he's in there. Well I guess the same goes for me being Vinyl Scratch. Only the best pony there could be. "So I see you decided to take the tampon out of your vagg, huh Scratch?" He asks smirking, and chickling a bit after. "Yeah fuck you, miss loyalty Rainbow Crash." "So will you come back, or no?" "Dude were supposed to be headed to New York, not sitting in a car, in a motel parking lot." I reply. "Good point. Shall I go and get Applejack? I only say that name cause I don't know your mothers name yet." "Oh it's cool. But I'll get her. I need to say sorry for just storming off the way I did." "That's mah girl!" Brent says slapping a hoof on my back. "Yeah." I say, turning, and heading back to the car, when I see mom, wobbling her way over too us. Seeing her walk on all fours for the first time is quite funny, so I can't help but laugh a bit. "Hey..." She says, finally, making her way over to us, without tripping on her face. I only knew because I remembered the rhythm of which leg is put where and when. "Hey mom." "S-...sorry, for...upsetting you Seth." She says looking down, her ears flat against her head. "It's okay. I kinda wanted to say sorry too, for just leaving the way I did. It wasn't right of me to do that." I reply, giving her a small hug. "Okay." She sniffles once, and hugs me back. "Awe you two just look so cute together now don't cha!" Brent says gleefully, flapping his wings excitedly. "Ew dude! That's gross!" I snap, letting go of mom." "Yeah I know, but anyway, instead of sitting here being a bunch of silly fillies, How's about getting to New York? We've got a lot of walking to do." Brent says, walking out of the parking lot, and onto the road. I begin walking after Brent, but mom doesn't follow. I turn back around ti see why, and I see her staring at Brent, who seems to have stopped to see what's wrong. I assume she's watching how we walk so she can get it down, so she doesn't wobble, and fall, the whole way to New York. That would be kind of funny to see though. A group of three ponies heading to the big city, by walking, while one of them keeps tripping the whole way there. But then again, she's my mother, and not knowing how to walk, wouldn't be nice to laugh at her like that. I can't laugh at her, after all she has done for mew in my situation. "What's the hold up ma?" "Oh jus seeing how ya guys walk, so ah can get it down instead uh falling down." She says laughing. That makes me laugh a bit too, but that's not the main reason why I'm laughing. I'm mostly laughing because I called why she wasn't moving. "Oh okay." I say smiling, as I walk to her side, about two inches away. "Hey just do what I do okay?" "Yeah well no duh!" She says breaking out into a laugh. "Okay, I'm done now. So what do I do?" "What I do." I reply. "You put one foreleg out." I say stepping my right foreleg out in front of me, and she does the same. "Then you put the opposite side hind leg forward." I put my left hind leg forward. "Then your right hind leg, then your left foreleg." I say completing the 'four step cycle' I call it the four step cycle cause you make four steps to complete one cycle. "Then you repeat." Then I step ahead of her, doing one more cycle. "It's really easy actually. Right front, left rear, right rear, left front." Then I do one more cycle. "Now you try." I smile as I watch her walk to me, slowly, but she didn't trip or anything, which is good. "Wow, this is easy!" She replies smiling, and soon, she's trotting in circles without flaw, with a smile on her face. "Look at me! I'm...trotting!" She says, trying to be donkey from Shrek 2. "Yeah good job donkey." She stops, and walks over to me. "Ah see ya got mah pun there." She giggles a little. "Yeah ah sure did! T'wasn't nuthin' there partner." I say mocking her accent. She just shakes her head and rolls her eyes. "Hey guys, we should get going. You've been walking for ages, and haven't even gotten out of the parking lot, if you know what I mean." Brent complains. "Oh hold your ponies, we're coming." I reply laughing at me silly pun. "Okay let's go!" Mom says, trotting ahead of us humming a bit. I don't get it. Before she was really pissed, now she's...happy? I just shrug it off, and let it be. We walk for about an hour, until we get to a small town Called I don't know what because the sigh is just one if those cheap green ones, and at least ninety percent is rusted off. Normally, I can't walk for long, but being a pony, I have more stamina, and from my five mile trip home the other day, I have gotten a lot more used to walking. We go into the town, where it's mostly people, with a few other ponies scattered around. I'm surprised that few people have been changing these days, but eventually, we'll all be ponies, until we can stop discord's evil plot to ponify the world. But why is he doing it? I don't know, but I do know I want to put an end to this. We stroll along the main street, because, in the distance, we can see where the small town ends, and I don't think wandering around would help, because there is the possibility of getting lost. We get noticed by most of the people, not just because we're a trio of ponies, but because two out of three of us are elements of harmony. Suddenly I feel hungry, and a low rumble plays in my belly, then I hear it come from mom, and Brent. The rumble simultaneously for a little longer, as if they are having a conversation, as to when we will eat, or what we will eat. I have some money in my backpack, Brent, with having nothing on him, I assume he is broke as a flightless joke. ughgh there I go with the puns again. Mom Left her purse in the car which we abandoned, so we will have to make due with whatever I have. Hopefully we can afford anything we may need. "Ugh, I'm so hungry!!" Brent whines. "I think we all are dude. We'll find the nearest restaurant, and see what we can get there." "With what money dude?" "I have a couple hundred dollars in my backpack, that I stole from my dad like last week. I've been saving it just incase I really need it, and now we do." I reply smiling. "Really? Show me." He scoffs, as we keep walking. I use my magic to open my backpack, then, to fish out the two, one hundred dollar bills, a fifty, a few tens, and two ones, and a five. The total comes out to be $297. I float the money in front of his face, as he, and mom gasp. "You stole from your father?! Dude, that has to be the stupidest thing you could do! It had to be money though? He probably would have killed you if he had the chance! But no pot? Come on man. Everybody has to have a little pot in their life!" "Dude, I want to lead a good life, and smoking that crap, no matter how good it may be, will ruin it." I reply, putting the money back in my bag. "Ah'm surprised ya stole from him in th' first place." Mom chuckles. "I try." Mom and Brent simply shake their heads. I turn my focus back to walking, and I scan the buildings, for anything that could resemble a restaurant. Eventually I see a Tom's KFC, but with being ponies, we can no longer consume the delicious foods known as meat. What a tease that is, but right next to it, Is a place called "The veggie bowl" There was a neon sign that had the name glowing green, with a small pile of carrots on top of lettuce, sitting on the bottom right corner. I do have to say, in just a few short days, I have really gotten used to being a pony, even though I'm female. "Hey how about there?" I ask the two elements of harmony, as I point to the small building with a hoof. "Dude as much as I hate veggies, I guess we have no choice since we can't have the luxury of KFC anymore." He sighs. "Ah like th' name, so what's th' harm in tryin' it?" Mom asks Brent. "I dunno. But yeah let's just go there." We come to a cross walk, and look for any cars, but there are none, for a far as we can see. Well there are cars parked on the side of the road, but none being driven is what I mean. We cross the street, and turn right. We approach the building, taking a good look at the outside features before we enter. All I have to say, is green. Lots of green. Green carpet, green chairs, booths and tables. The Walls, have grass painted on them, and it rises half way up the ceiling, before becoming a blue sky. There are pictures of vegetables hanging from the ceiling, and several small chandeliers lined down the center of the ceiling, but none of them are on due to it being day time. I look around more, and see that there are mostly ponies in here enjoying salads and what not. Guess they got the point that they can't eat meat, or that they learned the hard way. On the other side of the building, opposite us, is the kitchen, and I see more ponies, going back and forth. Maybe this place is run by people who have become ponies, for other people who have turned, so they can come here to eat. Then a pink pony with a blue mane and tail, who seems to be an earth pony, since there is a lack of wings or a horn, with a spy glass for a cutie mark comes up to us. "Hello, and welcome t the veggie bowl! My name is Cathy, and will it be a table or a booth today?" The pink pony says excitedly. "A booth, by the window, if that's alright." I ask. "Oh no problem at all mam!" And with that she leads us to the booth by the window, that looks out to the street. "Thank you." I say politely. "No problem! You guys just decide what you want,and I will be right back!" With that she trots off to tend to the other customers. Her voice was pretty high. Sort of like pinkie pie. Normally thinking about pinkie pie makes you think of cupcakes, but now I'm thinking about pie, but I don't know why. Oh great. It went from stupid puns to rhyming. Damn. Well I have no idea what's making me do it, but it's sort of funny, and annoying at the same time. I don't really pay too much mind too it though. But then I hear a voice come from behind me. A very familiar voice too. "Vinyl?" The voice says. I turn to see who it was, and in the booth behind me, I see a grey mare, with a dark grey mane, and purple eyes. Octavia. "Yeah but my name is Seth actually." "Darn it." She mumbles under her breath. "What's the matter?" I ask "Well you see, I am Octavia. Well the person who plays Octavia's voice, and by seeing you, I had hoped you were her." She says sadly. "So I take it you and she are friends outside of the show too then?" I ask. She just nods. "I assume you guys are heading to new York?" She asks. "Yep. Me my friend Brent, and my mom." I say smiling. "I see." She replies, she gets up, from her booth, and sits next to me. "You don't mind if I sit with you. Do you?" "Nah it's cool." "Thanks." She says smiling. "So I take it you want to join us?" "Sure if you guys don't mind it." "Ah well, a lot of people I assume are headed there right now, so I guess it doesn't matter who goes when, or with who." "Yeah but, we don' have a place to stay." My mom interupts. "Neither do I. My family just shunned me away when I turned into Octavia." "I know how that feels." I say putting a reassuring hoof on her shoulder. About an hour later, we had all eaten, and now we are leaving the building. It's pretty cool I got to meet an actual cast of the show, who actually turned into her character. She seems really upset though. So I'm gonna try my best to cheer her up. We all decide to search for a place to stay for the night, then we will leave tomorrow. Eventually, a family of three who had all become ponies decided to be generous and take us in for the night. When morning came, we went back to the veggie bowl fro breakfast, then we re-embarked on our long journey. We have traveled so far all ready, yet we are only half way to NY. > Big Boom!! :D > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Walking is hard. Walking from one side of America, all the way to the other is harder. Walking from one side of America from one side to the other as a cartoon pony is even harder. There are so many harders I could come up right now, I could go on forever. Really, because ever since I woke up in the bathroom, finding out I had turned into Vinyl Scratch. Granted I totally wanted to go all fanboying at the time, but my reasonably over-dramatic-brain decided to tell me it was a bad thing. It is in a lot of ways, yet is also really cool in a lot of other ways, you know? turning into your favorite character from My Little Pony has got to be one of the coolest things to ever happen to me. Yeah my dad was a complete dick about it, but I'm past him now, and the thought of him doesn't really bother me. When it comes to mom, I'm happy she'll stick with me even through something as crazy as your son turning into a famous cartoon pony. It is kind of strange though that my mother is Applejack now, but I don't see her any different than from when she was human, because I'm sure she thought the same of me. When you think about it, it's kind of a strange story to hear that a mother and son turn into ponies and make the trip from California, all the way to New York city on foot, or on hoof as it were. It's been a long, and rough trip, but, when we reached Oaklahoma, it's like, we're half way there already? Well we did drive for like two days straight, so I guess that gave us a good head start. If mom hadn't have turned into Applejack, We might have been there by now. Not that I blame her. Right now we're a quad of quadrupeds, walking down a never ending, straight, lifeless road, and not a person, pony, building, and or car in sight. Pun not intended. Me, Mom, Brent, and Octi. Or Tavi. I don't know her real name, all though I wish I did. I tried searching the internet once to try and find out, but since she plays a background pony who really had little to do with the show, I knew it was gonna be hard, and eventually I gave up. We've been walking for hours now, and can slowly start to see changes in the environment which surrounds us. It has gone from dry desert, and scorching hot temperatures which gets worse with having a new body covered in fur, to more grassy, and cooler weather, with trees being more common. I know it's still a long lonely road, but it's a heck of a lot better than walking in the heat he way we had been, because I think it's about fifteen degrees cooler out here now. Octi is walking right besides me, and Brent and mom walk ahead of us at the same pace which is kind of annoying because I have to look forward o walk, and all I can see are a couple of pony arses which is grossing me out. I notice Octi is looking at me, so I give her a little smile, but as soon as our eyes make contact, she averts her gave from me to the ground, as if she had something to say, or something is up with her. Well she did say that her family had disowned her after she had turned into Octavia. That must have been really hard on her. Becoming your own character from My Little Pony, and being scared of what your loving relatives will think or how they will feel, and when they find out, you hope for them to be supportive like always, only for them to push her away. I can tell sort of how she must feel about the while situation and all, because you know how my father was the same way. I just hope she hadn't of gotten beaten or hurt by anybody, or anypony, like my dad did to me. Yeah I know I said I'm past him, but the general idea that he did it due to my species change into a pony, still lingers around my vast space of mind. But just simply taking a few punches, and kicks, is nothing compared to having your whole family throw you out of the door just like that. I'm surprised my mom never got a call about me being absent form school because it's been like two days now. Putting my train of thought back on Octavia, I decide to try to talk to her as an attempt to cheer her up. It's been a thought in my head that something other than her family is really bugging her as well, and I hope I can find some way to pull her out of the depression she's been thrown into. "Something bothering you, Octi?" I ask, leaning my head a little in her direction, earning me a deep sigh from her. "I don't know Vinyl, It's mostly just my family." She replies with a sniff, still refusing to even take a solitary glance at me. But who's to say I control what she looks at? XD "I know how how you feel. Sort of anyway." I respond with a shrug. "How so?" Octi asks, finally craning her head and neck to look me in the eye. "My father. He was a really cool guy until this whole people-turning-into-ponies thing began, and when I changed, he was very abusive towards me. Luckily my mother still cares, cause if she didn't, she wouldn't be here right now." "Ya'll got that right!" Mom shouts happily, back to me, giggling a little bit after. "What's so funny ma?" "Ah'm still gettin' used ta this here new voice, an' accent." She replies with more giggling. "So you're done with getting used to a species transformation, but you're still getting used to the voice?" I ask, sounding confused how she got used to the bigger problem before the smaller one. "Kinda, but it's sorta interestin bein a different species an' all. But, this voice, just isn't me." She states with a slight shake of her head. "Well, at least you have a family member who cares." Octi says with another deep sigh. I' surprised through this whole conversation, Brent, the talkative one hasn't said a word yet. "UGH! Why is it taking so long to get there? Can't we just teleport there?" Brent whines, throwing his head back, his rainbow mane bouncin a bit. Wait... Teleport? Oh my Celestia, I forgot I can teleport! How can I forget that with being a unicorn? It's the easiest thing next to lifting stuff with magic. I stop dead in my tracks, and I begin beating my face, via face hoofing. I let out a grunt of frustration, trying to hold back a loud scream of anger, before it's let loose like a wild animal, shrieking through the air. Besides, I don't think that would sound right coming from me, having Vinyl's voice and all, and her voice just sounds horrible when screaming. I love her tomboyish voice, but when she yells it's like give me the flupping ear mufflers already!! Even though I had my magenta eyes closed, I can feel the others staring at me, looking at me as if I were a crazy pony. Screwball is the crazy pony. Not me. Not Vinyl. I feel my head begin to tense up, as my life essence known as blood flows in. I wish I had fists right now so I could clench them to ease some of the stress, but that isn't the case. Suddenly, I feel a huge surge of power rush through my body, and into my horn, from where I hear what sounds like a static sound, and then a large boom. My eyes shoot open to make sure I didn't hit the others with some sort of a magical beam, which to my luck, I was right, but then I see this big...bright...purple orb rise into the sky with the sound of a rocket blasting off. I let out a loud gasp as I watch it soar high into the sky, and then, BOOOOOOOOSSSHHHHH!!!!!!!A bright yellow light erupts, and rings of smoke emerge from it, and they shoot out from the orb of yellow light, and I hear the wind begin to rush around me, as the sky is light up so bright, I have to close my eyes. The sound waves push against me, causing me to almost fall over, and I have to use every muscle in my body to stay standing, and I hear several more little exploding sounds go off simultaneously. The rush of wind is so powerful, I feel like it's gonna rip my mane and tail clean off my head and flank. after a few more moments of fighting the sound waves, I don't have to struggle to stay standing any more. I slowly open my eyes, now battling the light to see what I may have just done. I lift a fore leg out in front of me to shield my eyes from the direct ray of light, and I see the sky has turned a bright orange, and the sound of the initial explosion echoes, piercing my ear drums, making them feel like they're gonna pop. The blue ball of light looks to be about as big as a modern three story house, and it looks as if the sun is right there in front of me, about a mile away, in in the sky, my ears ringing loudly. As the light begins to die down, I notice any grass or as far as I can see, has been completely obliterated, and the road has been reduced to rubble, and a nearby mountain, leveled. All of this destruction, and how are we still standing? Maybe it doesn't affect ponies if I don't want it to? My heart rate has risen to a speed to where I can barely tell the individual beats apart. Again, how am I still standing? My breathing has gone from low and slow, to fast, n' loud. Again, pun not intended. I see the Octavia's, Brent's, and mo's faces, jaws dropped, and pupils the size of dimes. Brent exchanges looks from the sky, to me, to the sky again. Mom stares at me, and Octi stares at the sky. I slowly take a step back as my legs have become wobbly, and my breathing rapidly decreases, as I suddenly feel very light headed, I make a final exhale, and I tumble to my left side, unconscious. 12 hours later... I let out a soft groan, as I try to open my eyes, and muffled voices are all I hear through ringing ears. "Seth!" I hear one voice shout. "Setth!" Another yells, with what sounds like a british accent. "Wake up!!" I hear the first voice say coming closer. Just five more minutes? Please? I'm trying to sleep, and this bed is so comfy! Wait...bed...? I don't remember being in a bed. Where is Equestria am I? Why did I say Equestria? Oh duh, I have the mind of an Equestrian! I mentally face hoof myself since I feel very weak as it is. Back to opening my eyes, I can make out a white figure, close to my right, and another figure, but this one is a little farther away, and is like a dark blue. The blurriness is so bad, I can't see a thing. I raise my hooves up to my eyes, and I rub them to help make my vision clearer. Bow the white figure, I can make out purple eyes, a...horn,...and wings, and a blue, green, and pink flowing mane, and tail. The other one, a dark blue fur coat, blue eyes, and a blue flowing mane and tail, with a transparent edge, also a horn and wings. They are none other than Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna, and that means I'm in Equestria!! "H-how am I...here?" I ask, my voice low and soft from just waking up from I don't know what. "You are technically not here. You are still down on earth unconscious." Celestia replies, stepping back to a reasonable distance. "H-how is that even...possible?" I have no clue what's going on right now. I can't remember a thing except for the fact that I, mom, Brent, and Octavia were heading to New York. Other than that, I don't remember a thing. "This to you may seem like nothing more than a simple vision, but we must let you know, this is very real." Luna speaks up, taking a step forward. "We brought the consciousness of your sleep here, so it might look as if you are dreaming, or like I said, are having a vision." Luna continues. "So...I'm like in a coma or something?" I ask, slowly regaining my energy. "For the time being." Celestia agrees with a nod. "But, let it be rest assured that you return to your own consciousness safely when we finish. But, in the mean time, we need your help." Celestia says softly, slightly bowing...for what reason? "Why me? And why did you just bow to me?" I ask, sounding very confused, as if I'm not already. "I ask you for your help, because I have been monitoring your world here and there, and at some point I felt a huge source of power. Like nothing I've ever felt before. Coming from a regular unicorn that is. I had asked Luna to tell me who gave off this large amount of power, and she informed me it had been you. She also told me the destruction you had left behind, without hurting the other ponies who had been with you. My hope is that you can learn to use that power wisely, so we may use it against Discord, who we as of right now have no power over." She sighs sadly after saying this. "I can't even protect my subjects now. It's like..." Celestia says without finishing. "Like what, Tia?" Luna asks, stepping over to her bigger sister. "Oh, it's nothing Luna. E-everything will be fine. I-I'm sure of it." Celestia replies, stuttering out of nervousness, while nuzzling luna's cheek, trying to cover it up. While they decide to chat, I try to get a look around the room I'm in. I'm in a bed, that's been pointed out already. There are two plants on either side of the bed, with a window behind each one. The bed sits atop a white rug with velvet red hearts lining the perimeter, over a tiled floor with two different hues of purple. The walls are like a salmon pink, with white base boards, and there are brown wooden support beams going across the ceiling. On the opposite side of the room from me is an arched door which comes to a point at the top, almost reaching the ceiling, with two plants on either side of it just like the bed. On the right side wall is a doorless door frame which looks like it leads into a private bathroom, and on the left side of the room, there are bookshelves lining the wall. There are also a few tapestries hanging from the ceiling of other ponies like the princesses, Shining Armor, and Twilight Sparkle. In the center ceiling of the room is a golden chandelier, with six candles, and golden chains holding it up. "So are you guys planning on sending me back anytime soon? I bet my mother is very worried about me right now." I say, interrupting Luna's and Celestia's conversation which has nothing to do with the real problem we have on our hooves. "Oh...ahem! Yes. Sorry." Celestia replies, clearing her throat to talk more properly. "We apologize deeply for keeping you Seth." Luna says with a slight smile. I get up form the bed, and I walk over to them. "So how are we going to do this?" I ask, cocking my head to one direction. "Since you are nothing more than just a visible entity, capable of so little as we speak, I shall have to send you back myself." Celestia replies, closing her eyes, and her face showing no emotion of any kind. Usual Celestia to be a poker face. "Ooh! I can I do it this time Tia? You always do it!" Luna pouts, with puppydog eyes. "I suppose so, but be very careful. We don't want to send him out into vast space being defenseless, and end up on the wrong planet, or being stuck forever in the wide vastness of the starry space." Celestia warns Luna. Wait. Wrong planet? Stuck in space? Defenseless? Oh shit. My life is on the line now for a princess to return me home with no experience to this at all. "Yes!! We thank thou very kindly, Tia!" Luna squeals with excitement, hopping a little bit into the air, before turning to face me, with a confident look on her face. She bites her tongue, as her horn begins to glow, and I become surrounded with the same blue entity, and with a white flash, I'm gone, and traveling through the wide openness of the universe. Back into reality... My head hurts. Really badly. Throbbing. Splitting. Headache. I sit up in what I feel is another bed. How did I get into this bed now? Well it doesn't matter. I've been outside too much anyway. I grunt as I sit up, rubbing my temples with my hooves until... "Vinyl!!" I hear a voice exclaim through ringing ears. Lots of ringing, then the feeling of being tightly hugged. I open my eyes to see Octavia hugging me. Why though? Has she somehow developed feelings within the short one and a half days we've known each other? That would be very rushed, and weird. And above all, creepy, but I hug er back anyway. "You're okay..." Octi says softly, nuzzling the back of my neck. "Yeah...could you keep it down? I have one massive headache." I reply, pulling away from her. "Oh...hehe. Sorry." She says with a shrug. "Where are we? And where's mom?" "We're home you silly filly, and what do you mean where's mom?" Octavia replies smugly, with a small chuckle afterwords. This is strange. She called me a silly filly as the first thing. Secondly, she said we're home, and lastly, she doesn't have a clue what I'm talking about. I decide to take a closer look at my surroundings. I'm in a bed, laying under the bed sheets with Octavia, the room we're in is small, and has light brown painted walls. There's a small end table next to my side of the bed since the other side is against a wall, and atop the end table is a small lamp. I know where I am now. I'm at Vinyl's, and Octi's place. I'm still in Equestria!! I mentally roll my eyes. Then I hear a voice, and the clop clop of hooves approaching the room. "Octi, who are you talking to?" The voice asks, getting closer, and closer, I hear the voice as Vinyls voice, well obviously. Vinyl steps onto the door way, and her reaction when she sees me is just priceless. Her eyes shrink, and her jaw drops a little. I look at Octavia who is wearing a face showing that she is scared shitless. She scrambles out of the covers, and cowers her self into the corner of the room, farthest from me and Vinyl. Her breathing escalated, and her chest rising and falling with each breath. After a few more seconds, Octavia faints, and I as well crawl out of the bed. Vinyl takes in a deep breath, and lets out out a long sigh, then turns her head to look at me, then she too faints. Thank you Princess Luna. Face hoof.
