> Living With Soul Pone > by KittyKatKitKat > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > chapter número uno > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, you are known as "The Human" or, Anon, if you will...A great deal has happened while you've been in Equestria. You have helped the main six, you've also helped the princesses with some of your knowledge in politics...and you've also bought a house with the bits you've collected over the month...Ahh...good to be you...that is, until you realize the house you got was rumored to be haunted, and before you could try to get your bits back it was already going though to the mare who sells houses... ¨Now...where did I put those damn keys? I had them somewhere...¨ You check to see if it´s in your back pocket, not there, you suppose...Your front pocket? No...not there, either...how about your man pouch? No? Hmm...Maybe it could be...ah! There it was! Sitting beneath your shoes, is the key...you must've dropped them. Anyways, you go into the large house, and settle down... ¨Now, to just relax on the couch...¨ Before you could get some shut eye, however- a cold feeling surrounds you, and you realize you have no blanket... ¨God, dammit it..now I have to get up, and walk to the closet...and...¨ As you walk to the closet gowning to yourself, you notice something off...The chair you had sitting at the table was now upside down near the cabinet...¨Huh..Weird...I guess?¨ You decide to leave it there, to pick it up in the mourning. Now that you have your blanket, you set it on your lovely one sided couch, get undressed, and go to bed. --A few hours later-- You try to swish some spit in your mouth, nothing. You can't sleep, and worst of all you thirst...You need some cold water down your throat, ASAP. Great. The next best thing is taking a piss in the night...Welp, better get it over with. As usual, you get up and get a glass of water, no big right? Wrong. You hear some movement down the hall...like, a BIG kinda movement..You put down your water and get in a fighting stance. Good thing Applebloom taught you how to use Karate, with a little help from Rainbow Dash. Anyways, you move down the hall with your PJs intact, and take around the corner aaaand! Nothing. It´s nothing. noda, nope, nothing. "Musta just been paranoid." You thought, taking this as a chance to sleep, you go ahead and get back into bed. As you rustle into bed, you feel the cold on your arm again...even though you have a very warm blanket Grandma Smith gave to you in the last winter wrap up. You decide to try to sleep and ignore it, but it just keeps going...and you hear spooky (Scary skeletons~) sounds coming from..somewhere?! ¨What´s going on?!¨ you blurt out, thinking this is only a dream...but your illusion is shattered when you hear a female voice in your whispering in your ear. "Hey!~" The female voice echos, You get up in a rush to see who it is, and you find a little ghost pony! huh...a real...incorporeal pony. The legends are true..Who would've thought. "...What are you doing in my house?" You ask. "Well, I've been here for over a thousand years...so.." She trails off, then looks to you. "...and...and I'm just so lonely...I noticed you where here...wait...why are you here, Mr. Human?"As you role your eyes in annoyance, You shake off the cold feeling, and try to take what's happening. You try to answer the ghost before you. "Well...I had recently bought this house, and now i'm living in it. Why are YOU in this house?" That seems to got her attention, but ignores your question. This is why you don't like ponies. "Mister Human? Do you want to play?" You don't have time for this, your so sleepy you'd sleep on a bed made of nails. "Look...not right now. I have work in the morning, and I need some shut eye. So, can you wait?" You say, trying not to sound annoyed.(I mean, this ghost is like a little kid, after all. You don't want to scare it....Ironically.) The ghost nods her head rapidly, and excitedly bouncing around, she says: "OH! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" You stare at her, trying to signal that you need sleep. "Oh! Right..Sorrrryyy~!" As she says the last word of her apology, she slides through the ground and disappears. Finally, some shut eye. Your head hurts. God damn does your head hurt. You couldn't get even an hour of shut eye, and when you did it felt as though you where sleeping under a rock. You get up and do your mourning routine, and go out on your day, getting coffee on your way....Then the ghost pone stops you at the door, with little puppy dog eyes. "Mister Human? Where are ya going?" She asks. "I'm going to work." you say as you pass right through her from the doorway. "Well, make sure you remember your promise!! I NEVER forget a promise! I hope you don't either!" "Trust me, I know what it's like to break a promise..." You shiver at your memory of breaking a 'Pinkie Promise' for the very first time...You'll never forget that day... You arrive at work at around 7:15, and check in. You never thought you'd be working with Rainbow Dash at her Gym, and despite her tomboyish attitude she's pretty nice and really gets where you're coming from... She´s one of the only ponies that you can really talk to, despite her consent ego getting in the way. "Oh hey, Anon! How are ya?" Rainbow Dash says, from the pulley cloud. "Eh. It´s fine. Hold on for a sec." You walk over to the locker room and undress and put on your gym clothes. You then get onto the cloud pulley, and reply to Rainbow Dash. "I recently bought a house down by sugar cube corner." Rainbow Dash looks over in interest. "Is it that one that was supposedly abandoned? The one we use for scaring the Fillies?" You nod. "Eyup. It´s not all that bad, all you need is a broom and a vacuum!" Rainbow starts to snicker, and you as well. You both eventually laugh out loud. "Oh, ok..! I see, I see. Well, besides being the next ghost buster; what´s your plan for a job? You could help me out at the gym, ya know." You shake your head. "Nah. I already got a job at sugar cube corner. But I could work here part time on the weekends. How ´bout that?" "Deal." You give each other a hoof-to-fist pound it, and get up from the workout cloud. You return home, after buying yourself a water to cool yourself down. > Chapter número Dos > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ¨Hey~!¨ A cold voice greets you, as you look around the room, tiredly The cold voice was the sound of a little ghost filly of that you do not know the name of yet, and she is right up in your face. ¨Get off of me.. Ugh.. feels like somethin´s been sleeping on my chest..¨ You sit up in your bed.. Wait, bed? When did that happen? Eh. Probably happened when you were passing between chapters. The young voice then speaks to you in a playful manner, like the filly she appears to be. ¨Do you remember your promise? Because I remember your promise you made to me yesterday!¨ She bounces around your dirty clothed room, and decide when you fully wake up with your coffee, you´re going to clean your room. Not that you want to, mind you. But only because you thought out of the corner of your eye you could of seen a little cloth monster starting to form. You sit up on your bed, groaning to yourself in restfulness while stretching, and face the little ghostly filly. ¨Look. I know what I said, but I have one question. How long have I been out?¨ She thinks for a minute and replies back to you. ¨Uhh... I think you´ve been out for two days?¨ She just shrugs. Crap, that spells trouble. You speed walk from your bed to the phone (Which Luna gave to you, and is one of the only phones in the world of Equestria. But that´s another story for another time.) and dial up the operator. ¨Hello! How may I help you?¨ The voice sounds like a mare around her late 20´s in human years. Sounds like she´s trying to hold a nice facade until you pass, like you do at Sugar Cube Corner. You feel the ghost filly just starring at your back, waiting for your response to her question. ¨Uh.. Bring up Sugar Cube Corner for me, please.¨ The operator just sighs and and hooks you up to S.C.C. ¨Heellllooo~? Who is this? OH! LET ME GUESS! Um... Rainbow Dash! No wait! Applejack! Oh wait I got it... THORAX!¨ You face palm and just decide to get this over with.. you take a deep breath and hope for the best.. ¨Pinkie.. It´s me Anon. I´m sorry for not calling in earlier but I think I´m going to have to skip work today.¨ There´s complete silence on the phone. ¨You- Wait, what? You need to miss work? Why?¨ You look over your shoulder over to the little ghost filly smiling a huge smile. Damn your soft heart... ¨It´s because I made a Pinkie Promise to somepony and I need to keep it.. You understand, right Pinkie?¨ Pinkie then replies in her usual tone. ¨Okie Doki..! I guess I can´t get in the way of that.. BUT! If I catch you breaking a Pinkie Promise...¨ You can hear her voice shift from bouncy and giggle to down right serious.. ¨You WON´T like it.. It´s be way worse than last time.. Is that clear, Anon?¨ you reply shaky ¨Y-yes...¨ You swallow some spit in your mouth. ¨ I understand..T-thanks?¨ You promptly hang up on Pinkie before she can possibly reply. You face to the the ghost pone, and reply to her question. "alright. I'm free. what do ya want to play?" She lights up, (literally.) and runs to a closet, upon further inspection, you find it's cock full of video games and video game systems. "I didn't take you for a gamer ghost mare.." She grabs a headset, two controllers, a game and a system. The PONETENDO SNAP and SUPER SCRUNCH PONIES IV, something that's not out for the public yet.. "wait, how did you get these? They aren't for the system yet.." She looks over from her set and replies. "Silly~! I know some ponies, which come in handy! I'm like a collected, you can say.." She says in a cheeky grin as you just sigh and start a timed match for 5 minutes. You talk to her without averting your eyes off the screen. "Ya know.. I never really got your name.. What is it?" She smiles a toothy grin, and replies as she gets the last hit in and star K.Os you, holding her hooves in the air as the result screen ranks up. "Lilly. Lilly CottonFlower~!" > Chapter tres > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "uh.. What happened?" You feel a slight pain as you bring yourself up from the couch. Looks like you played nearly into the morning, cuz' you are really fucking tired.. Oh ya.. The new Pony games Lilly brought.. Ever since you played that one pony game with her, she's been asking to do so again.. She said she would "..Get someone VERY special to play with us~!". Uh huh. Sure.. You get your coat on and drink the coffee you where making while you where having your internal speech to yourself, and close the door. You lock said door and put the key underneath the mat, like you always do. "Ugh.. Why does it have to be so chilly this morning..?" You wave for a taxi and get in. Before you know it, you're at sugar cube corner. Pinkie does NOT look happy.. Which is really bad. "You pinkie promised to be here by seven. IT'S 7:03!!" You fake smile and say it's alright.. It's only a few minute.. She seems to be content with it. she gives you the I'm-watching-you look with her hooves and slowly goes back into the kitchen backwards. A few hours goes by and few costumers come in your wake.. Until.. "Excuse me, but might I inquire where the sweetest of sweets might be? I'm looking for the Equestria renowned Sugar Cube Corner?" You turn your head to see a dark blueish pony with a mane almost as shiny as the night sky, and a cutie mark in the shape of the moon standing in front of you. You've heard of the princesses, but you thought they where only in Canterlot, much less the Princess of the Night, which you heard rumors that she likes to sleep in on afternoons. "Greetings, princess. We have a wide verity of sweets. Which, I am sure can be of your liking. Would you like to try our signature Sunlight-pop on a stick? It's only 3 bits. Anyone with a sun cutie mark it'll be 100% off." The princess of the night rolls her eyes. "That Tia.. Always getting the favorables. Fine, I'll take two." She hands you six bits in her magic. "Oh.. If you don't mind me asking, why are you in Ponyville?" Luna lights up at the question. "Oh! I was invited by somepony to play some games! I am a game champion, after all." You where taken aback by this a bit, I mean; a princess who loves to play games?! "Have you played the new Ponimon Shine and Darkness yet? It's really great." The dark horse pulls out to what seems a two screened hoofheld, with Ponimon playing in the background. "Special Limited Pre-order Celestia bonus for Darkness edition." She holds it up in her magic to show you it's the real deal.. and boy, it is! Wait.. Then something hits you.. "Hold on, was that somepony a ghost? A ghost pony named Lilly?" Luna thinks for a second, then nods. "Yup. She was pretty nice. But got me when she mentioned 'Special edition'." Oh boy.. > Chapter cuatro > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Wait.. A ghost pony..?" Luna nods. "Uh.. Yes.. Why do you ask multiple times on this topic? Do you know this ghost pony?" You're blown away. You're just blown away. You can't handle it. Too much cuteness.. and fluff.. and.. "Hey, sir.. Are you alright? you're drooling..WAIT! DID SOMEPONY CAST A NUMBING SPELL ON YOU?! I SHALL SAVE YOU!!" Luna powers up her horn to unleash a fully powered magical bolt of electricity square into your face, and it hurts like hell. "OUCH! What the fuck Luna?!" Luna stands her ground, using her magic to grab her newly bought candy. "I just did you a favor! Besides, you have a long line ahead of you anyways." You look behind The princess to see a giant line was forming outside the cafe, as they either look shocked or impatient. no in between. You even see a mother of a foul cover her foul's eyes. Luna then walks out and gives you a raspberry. "I can NOT wait to beat her in a video game... That'll show her.." You quietly say to yourself as you pump your fist, and get ready for the next customer. You tiredly reach down underneath the mat and reach for the key to your house.. Boy, it was another one of those days. Demand was uncrushable high, the lines where long as fuck; and don't even get me started on the whole Luna incident.. Either way, you where just happy to get back home. You walk in just as your little ghostly friend yells out "GAAAAAAAME!!!" Fallowed by a "AH, HORSESHIT!" and some giggling.. You can a wild guest as to what's going on. You enter the door and the door latches onto the handle with a clean 'click'. This gets the twos attention. “Young Anon, this game is quite unfair!! You try beating this foul in a death match at 300% of health!” You don’t have have much else to do, and besides.. you love to either read, write, or game on your free time anyways. Without a word, you grab the remote from Luna’s magic as Lilly sets up a death match. You play as your main, a peachy queen character, as Lilly picks a Ponimon ghosts type from the roster. In 3.. 2.. 1.. you fight! You can’t believe it.. you just can’t.. Lilly raises her ghostly hoofs in the air as the screen shows Lilly’s Ponimon as the winner. It was an intense match, too.. she won ONLY by a small margin. “I win, your loss!~ Both of your plots!! He he~!” You turn off the game as you notice Luna going into your kitchen. You follow The moon princess as Lilly keeps doing her little victory dance. “Where are your drinks, Anon? We must celebrate your almost victory over the young filly!” She says to you as she rampages through your cabinets and your refrigerator. “Isn’t it a little too early to drink?” She turns to you as her magic continues looking around, and reply’s with this.. “Hey, 12 was technically 6 hours ago! Now then, we should get the party started! Old yore times style!” You seem to be in for a ride.. Let’s just hope ghost ponies can’t get drunk. > Chapter cinco > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- You wake up with a smashing headache pounding your mind.. and a sense that you feel that the author doesn’t know how to open a chapter, so they resort to the one they used a few chapters ago.. Fourth wall breaking aside, you wobbly try to get up but to no avail. You look to your side as you realize that you were sleeping with a pony. Great, just my luck. Some random ass pony wonders in and sleeps in your bed with you.. wait, is that berry punch? Why is she here.. Then it hits you. Literally. A can of beer hits you from nowhere as you try to remember what happened the night before with your beating headache.. Luna set out to get drinks, and gets everybody wasted.. which brings up a short question.. Do ghosts even get drunk? A pain suddenly hits you in the stomach, knocking the wind out of you, as you realize it was YET ANOTHER pony on the side of your bed. This time, it looks like a gray pony with her leg sticking up your stomach. Boy.. what kinda drinks did you consume? You then promptly, and roughly, push Derpy and Berry off of your bed. They somehow stay asleep.. which shouldn’t surprise you, especially with how hard Berry Drinks. You groan and get up from the bed, walking towards the living room, your head still pounding from the blackout. You reach said room, and see many other ponies all over, spread out like butter on toast.. You step over them, reaching to the couch where a faintly glowing small ghost horse lays. She breaths slowly, her ghostly chest rising up and down.. If there's one thing you know, it's that she's cute, looks fluffy, and so innocent.. It's almost feel bad for the filly.. What even happened? Why did this happen? Who did it, and why? All these questions and yet.. She's still so joyful and full of life.. It's almost like.. But suddenly, you're pulled from your thoughts. Without realizing it, you where stroking her mane, which prompted her to wake.. Oops. "..Anon..? That you..?" She lets out a small yawn, stretching as she rubs her big drowsy eyes. She softly floats a bit, then hugs you. "What happened last night..? I'm all tuckered out.." She continues to hug you, as you save your questions for later you answer her in a kind sweet voice. "Well, Luna went a little ham on the beer, I think. I don't remember much after that.." You rub the back of your head, as you slowly detach yourself from the little ghostly filly. Moving from the couch to a sitting position, she sits next to you on said couch. "You know.. You do seem kind of lonely.. What if we brought in a roommate?" You turn to her, fully awake, wide eyed. "U-um.. I don't think tha-.." Before you could say anything, her deminor goes from tired to joyful once again. She floats to the phone, picking it up and takes a deep breath. She breaths on the phone, as you watch it shake and stir. Suddenly, the phone dials itself, as she brings to her ear. "..Yes, hello? Is this... Yup!.. Oh yeah, it's Anon...You will?! Thanks a million!!" She slams the phone down as she floats to you quickly, tackling you to the couch. "I got you.. a new roooommaaaate!!~" With the wind knocked out of you, you could only gasp for air in responce... Oh boy.. this'll be horrible..
