Chapter 1: AHH WHERE IS MISTER WHISKERS!?

View Online

There was a quiet tapping noise coming from the window from outside Deadlock's house. The tapping grew louder and louder until it turned into a loud banging sound. Deadlock woke up annoyed and thought "Who is making that dam banging sound?" Deadlock looked outside to find that it was best and only friend Shoestring."What the hell are you doing Shoestring?!" Yelled Deadlock "It's 5:00 in the Celestia dam morning!"

Shoestring ran into the house in tears and yelled "(sob) MR.WHISKERS HE'S (sob,sniff,sob)"

Deadlock yelled "Mr.Whisker's what?"

Shoestring stated "MR.WHISKERS IS GONE!"

A old pony walked by and said "Deadlock what did ya do now?"

"It wasn't me you old b#$%h!" The old pony came over and hugged Shoestring and started patting him on the head and said "Poor poor shoestring what's a matter."

"Well," Shoestring began to say "(sniff) I woke and called for my kitty (sniff) his name is Mr.Whiskers,and he didn't come so I looked inside the house and he was gone!"

"Oh you poor thing, say Deadlock deary can you help Shoestring find his little kitty?" the old pony asked nicely.

"Oh hell no i'm going back to bed." Deadlock stated.

"Help him or you will wake up with one less ear this morning." The old pony whispered, "Got it deary."

"Okay okay." Deadlock said with a scared look.

Shoestring jumped in the air and let out a big "YEAH!Come on dead lock let's go!" Deadlock and Shoestring asked all around and no body knew where Shoestring's cat was or cared for that matter.

"Dam we'll never find your cat." Deadlock said. He then whispered "There goes my ear."

Shoestring said "Wait i know what to do, I speak cat."

Deadlock looked at Shoestring and said "You speak cat, bullshit."

"I do in fact speak cat." Shoestring started meowing louder and louder.

Deadlock said "You sound like a dying," And before deadlock could say anything all the neighborhood stray cats walked towards Shoestring. The cats came by the tens. Deadlock counted the cats but lost count at a shocking amount of 66 cats. Shoestring meowed to the cats and the cats meowed back. "So um what did they say?" Deadlock asked.

So Shoestring answered,"6 of them said Mr.Whiskers went into the Everfree forest."

Deadlock then got reminded of terrible things has happened there. "I thought it was a bunch of vines," he said "It wasn't vines oh not vines."

"Hey what are ya talking about buddy?" Shoestring asked.

"NOTHING!" Deadlock answered nervously. Shoestring was a bit suspicious but that was wiped away with happiness.

"TO THE EVERFREE FOREST!" he said proudly.

"No!" Deadlock said "You can bring me to end of Equestria but i will never go into the Everfree forest never again!"

Shoestring looked at Deadlock with puppy dog eyes and said "What about Mr.Whiskers?"

That pony's sad look alone would would make him kinda want to go but the fear of losing one of his ears made it where he would definitely go. "Okay i'll go for you,"he said and began to whisper "and for my ear." So as they continued to the Everfree forest, but they didn't know what was going to happened on that day that would they're life, they're look on the Everfree Forest, and they're friendship.

So our heroes (may Celestia bless they're souls) are off to the Everfree forest! Deadlock looks around nervous and afraid while walking through the forest remembering terrible things that happened at that very forest while Shoestring on the other hand was skipping Haply though the forest. "Here kitty kitty, time to go home. "Deadlock said nervously.

"Hey" Shoestring said joyfully "You look nervous is there a problem?"

Deadlock stopped and looked at Shoestring with a serious stare and asked "Have you ever been in the Everfree,HAVE YOU?!"

Shoestring paused and scratched his chin for a moment "Thinking,thinking, mmmm (gasp)." Then he answered joyfully "I remember now!Flashback (imitates harp poorly)"

"It all happened when i was little filly me and my friends and,"

Deadlock interrupted and said "Wait you had friends?"

Shoestring began talking again "Yes they always said "You make me look good in comparison" anyways me and my friends where camping and we learned a valuable lesson."

"And that was?" Deadlock asked

"Don't feed the bears they'll eat your face off." Deadlock gawked we he heard this then a fly flew into his mouth.

As they continued they bumped into a tree that looked like it had a face. "Oohhh vines." shoestring said with joy.

Deadlock took a closer look at the tree and realized something. SOME THING TERRIBLE "OHH NOO!"Deadlock shrieked. He looked over to Shoestring and said "DON"T PULL ON THE VINES!!!"

Shoestring looked at Deadlock "Now looky here i'am a grown adult I can do as I please!" Shoestring pulled the vine with his teeth.

"Well hello there sexy." Deadlock looked behind him and gulped. The tree's mouth started to move and his eyes glowed brightly with a yellowish glow. "Well well i have not seen you in a long time. Remember me boy, it's Trunk the sexual tree."

"OH SH:derpyderp2:T RUN!" Deadlock shouted. Before they could run they were grabbed by the vines and held upside down.

"Well boy it's been along time since we had fun."

Shoestring looked at Deadlock and said with glee "So this your friend please introduce me to him to me." The tree used one of his other vines to point at a sign. Shoestring looked at and said "Ohh, Trunk the rapping tree.COOL!"

Trunk looked at the sign and said "The idiot spelled it wrong. It was supposed to say...T"

"STOP, the idiot's mind is fragile enough." Deadlock yelled

"Idiot?" Shoestring said sadly.

Deadlock yelled "Shoestring what are going to do?!"

Shoestring replied angrily "I don't know, remember i'm stupid!"

Deadlock moaned and then thought of something. The vines of this particular tree are eaten as a erotic i mean exzotic food.

Deadlock shouted "You can eat the tenta, uh i mean vines!"

Shoestring thought to himself "Yeah that'll make me feel better!" He then started to gorge on the vines, while Deadlock was trying not to barf because he knew what the vines really where.

As the duo ran though the Everfree forest they could hear Trunk Screaming "Oh f:derpyderp2:k that nasty motherf:derpyderp1:kah I'll get you ba:derpytongue2:sterds!" And so that chapter of Deadlock and Shoestring ended with more weird things to come.

Our heroes, well they haven't done anything heroic they're just looking for a cat and, WAIT I'M GETTING PAID FOR WRITING THIS CRAP!


Deadlock and Shoestring found a patch of water with the size of a bathtub. They both sat in it to wash off what Shoestring calls ranch dressing. Shoestring stared at Deadlock with a pissed off look.

Deadlock spoke "Hey shoe"

"F:derpyderp2:ck you." Shoestring interrupted.

"Hey! Look i'm sorry for calling you idiot, it's just in the heat of the moment words just slip out of my mouth."

Shoestring smiled and laughed and then said "That's okay buddy I forgive ya."

Deadlock chuckled and said "Okay now will you quit poking me with 2 sticks."

Shoestring looked puzzled and raised his hoofs and said "I'm not doing anything." Deadlock looked shocked and jumped and shrieked.

"AHH AHH AHH WHAT'S BITING ME!!! EHHH!" Deadlock screeched. What came out of the water was a Raven with snorkeling gear. "Yeah come on Shoestring let's go. "Deadlock stated.

"OKAY!" Shoestring yelled while accidentally splashing water on Deadlock "Sorry." As they walked through the woods something caught Deadlock's eye.

Deadlock shouted "Hey over here I found some cat prints"

Shoestring looked at Deadlock and shouted excitedly "Does it smell like Mr. Whiskers?!"

Deadlock responded "I don't know what your cat smells like."

"He smell's like buttermilk!" Shoestring responded.

Deadlock smelled the footprints, fell down, and yelled "OH CELESTIA THAT'S SO CELESTIA F:derpyderp2:KING AWFUL!"

Shoestring came over and took a big sniff and yelled "Whiskers (cough) that's m(COUGH) my kitty." Shoestring ran through the path of paw prints swiftly.

"Shoestring slow down you don't know what's out there!" Deadlock got up and ran towards Shoestring.

"I KNOW WHAT'S OUT THERE!" Shoestring shouted "MR.WHISKER'S OUT THERE AND HIS NEW FRIEND BEARY!"

"Beary?" Deadlock thought to himself "Beary what the, oh god it's a.." Standing right in front of Deadlock was a grizzly bear holding Mr.Whiskers. "Oh it's one of those domestic bears raised by Fluttershy." The bear took the cat and gulped it. Just swallowed it right up. Shoestring was shaking and tears started rolling down his face. And last but not least the look of anger filled Deadlock's face. "I CAME ALL THIS WAY TO GET MY BEST FRIEND'S CAT FOR YOU TO EAT IT!? AW HELL NAH!!" Deadlock came over to the bear and used his magic to yank out the cat from the bear's mouth. The bear looked at deadlock menacingly and let out a horrific growl. "Oh sh:derpyderp2:t I just pissed it off RUN!!!"

Shoestring and deadlock ran through the forest with the bear gaining speed. "I DON'T WANNA LOSE MY FACE!!!" Shoestring yelled.

"WELL WE'RE GONNA LOSE MORE THAN A FACE IF IT CATCHES US!!!" Right in front of them was a old out of place mansion. They got in shut and locked the door and stopped to catch they're breath. The bear tried breaking the door but it didn't work.

"Really bears can't get through wooden doors?" Deadlock stated.

"Just like aliens." replied Shoestring. They walked through the eerie mansion with old paintings of the richest mares in history.

"Man this place, this place it's.... FREAKING AWSOME!" Deadlock announced. Mr.Whiskers was riding on Shoestring's back.

Shoestring muttered "Don't worry kitty they're aren't ghost ponies there just an old mare's tale, right?"

Chapter 4:Who ya gonna call?

Suddenly a eerie laugh went through the halls. "What was th-that?" Shoestring stammered.

"I don't know Shoestring," Deadlock said, "But let's find out." They followed where the laugh was coming as it came a again and again. They found a door that obviously led to a room.

"Well I'm just gonna stay here and you know stay." Shoestring stuttered.

"Come on don't be a scaredy pony. Decides I did get your cat back." Deadlock replied.

Shoestring sat down and thought about it for a minute said "Well, okay"

"Great!" Deadlock replied happily. Deadlock opened the door see the chair rocking.

"Why hello there it has been quite a while since I've had visitors." said a gentlemen with a british accent.

"How long?" Shoestring replied.

The pony turned around and said "Why it's been over a thousand moons!"

Shoestring yelled "EEEEEHHH GHOST PONY!! AHHHHH!!!"

"Please don't run everyone run away. Everypony from me and it get's quite boring around here." the ghost responded.

Shoestring kept inhaling and exhaling while deadlock looked more stoked they ever. "Ah man a real ghost wait until the mare at the library hears about this." Deadlock said.

"Why your the first to actually sound quite pleased with the fact your talking to the dead however your friend on the other hand." the ghost said as he looked toward Shoestring "He looks so scared that if he's not careful he might join me." Deadlock and the ghost shared a hearty laugh while Shoestring laughed nervously. "The names Seal McDeal ." the ghost said, "Your name is?"

"The name's Deadlock Loggins and my friend over there is Shoestring Stinger."

Shoestring's eyes open wide and yelled "OHH NOO HE KNOWS OUR NAMES!!!!"

Deadlock replied "He knows our names not where we live. Anyways Seal,"

"Oh please I refer to be called Mc.Deal." Mc.Deal interrupted.

"Okay" Deadlock continued, "I have so many ghost related questions." While the two where chatting Shoestring's stomach growled.

"Man all this fear sure makes me hungry." Shoestring thought to himself. "Well guys while you guys chit chat I'm gonna go find some ghost food." Shoestring stated.

"Yeah you go do that." Deadlock replied. Shoestring went out the door and went down stairs to find the kitchen. Shoestring did eventually find the kitchen and he was amazed. "Wow Mr.Whiskers look at kitchen, it's huge!" Shoestring said. There where pots and pans galore, cooking tools that not even sold at shops and finally, they found a part of the kitchen with stoves covering the walls. "But where's the fridge?" Shoestring thought to himself. He found a container that had the words ice box on them (author's note if you don't know what an ice box is look it up on the wikiped!) and he opened it to his disappointment it was filled with rotten food.

"THERE YOU ARE!" Deadlock shouted "LET'S GO!"

"What happened buddy?" Shoestring questioned.

"Looks like Mc.Deal enjoyed the company, a little to munch!" Deadlock replied.

McDeal flew down the stairs and yelled hauntingly "COME ON YOU'LL ENJOY BEING DEAD YOU DON'T NEED TO EAT, SLEEP, BAETH, AND BEST OF ALL YOU WON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH PONIE'S BULLS:derpyderp2:T!" Deadlock, Shoestring, and Mr.Whiskers all ran out of the mansion. "PLEASE COME BACK, (sniff) I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE!!!!!" The mansion disappeared. The final words came out of that house was "Please come back when you die I'll be waiting here."

Chapter 5:When they were fillies

It was getting dark and they both wished that the mansion didn't disappear. "For the first time in forever I regret listening to you." Deadlock said.

"Thanks buddy." Shoestring responded.

"I feel sorry for that poor lonely soul." Deadlock said, "But why." Then Deadlock remembered something. When Deadlock was a filly he couldn't get along with others not because he was a jerk, because he was very shy. It didn't help that thanks to him being shy he was picked on a lot. But another filly although lonely was all ways filled with joy. Shoestring, most student's at school called him names like empty headed, broken bulb, and shoesting. That last one never made sense, but anyways back to Deadlock. When Deadlock was bullied he had take all the hate filled comments because he knew if he stood up for himself he'd get hurt, badly. Sure he could tell the teachers, but they would never listen (WOW just like real life). Deadlock hated his life.

Then one day, one special day something great happened. One day while eating lunch Deadlock heard something new, Shoestring crying.

"Oh what's a matter little filly gonna cry?" said one of the three bullies. Deadlock came over to see what was going on. Shoestring was on the floor crying, bruised up, and was bleeding. One three fillies kicked poor Shoestring. This act of injustice filled Deadlock with so munch anger that came up and punched the sh:derpyderp2:t out of the bully.

"I am sick of the abuse that has been going on in this school." Deadlock yelled, "If this happens again you will wake with the worst pain you ever had. DO YOU HEAR ME!!!" At that time every filly feared Deadlock, well all but one. That one was Shoestring who told deadlock

"Thank you buddy." That day Deadlock two Deadlocks was broken.

a deadlock is a situation in which two or more competing actions are each waiting for the other to finish, and thus neither ever does.

Deadlock was kicked out of school for a week, but when he came back bullying seemed to end. But they're was still one problem. Deadlock was still alone. Then Shoestring came to Deadlock who was sitting on a hill during recess and said "Hey thanks for helping me the other day. You know what your my best friend." Shoestring hugged Deadlock. Deadlock hugged him back and started to cry. Not because he being hurt, abused, or shamed. He cried because for one time in life he well he truly happy.

Then they were finally out of the forest. Deadlock thought to himself "50 cases of matches 35 containers of lighter fluid. That might be enough to burn that plant."

Shoestring yelled happily "WE'RE BACK IN PONYVILLE!"

"NO GIVES A S:derpyderp2:T!" yelled a voice from afar.

"Well I guess i'll see you tomorrow."

"OKAY!"

"Bye Shoestring!"

"BYE DEADLOCK!"

The old pony said "Well you found Shoestring's cat I guess my ear necklace will have to wait another day."

"Crazy old b:derpyderp2:." Deadlock thought to himself.

At Deadlock's home he thought to himself what a weird day he has had.


At Deadlock's home he thought to himself what a weird day he has had. Maybe we'll go another, another adventure.

The next day Deadlock woke up to find one of ears bleeding. He felt and realized it wasn't there. There a plate with pony shaped pancakes and a note on his night stand that said (The following is supposed to spelt wrong)

"Hay thre buddie the old poni said shee needed a ear so eye barowed yours. Now shee can hafe a nice neklaze. Alzo haf sum pancakes"

Deadlock yelled "FFFFFFFFFFFUUU" THE END.
