Worst Day Ever (RE-WRITTEN)
Jacob I...was a regular guy, he had a good job and enjoyed it, his life was pretty good for him, he was happy, and today he was a bit bored...given it was the weekend and he should probably have something to do...he did not unfortunately...
Huffing I decided to try and find something on TV maybe something could make this weekend enjoyable, while I was browsing through the channels I spotted a new episode of mlp was about to air, I completely forgotten there was a new episode today, guess this weekend wasn't gonna be such a bore after all.
With excitement I quickly got onto the channel and waited for the episode to start.
As I waited for the commercial to end there was a knock on the door, pausing the TV i got to see who it was, when the door opened a woman with red hair and dark skin was standing there, but the most surprising thing about her was her eyes were red as well, not dark brown but literally crimson red.
The woman smiled looking at Jacob "hello sir, I hope I'm not interrupting anything”.
"Oh no no you're fine, um how can I help you?” I couldn't stop looking at the woman's eyes, they were strange and entrancing....yet...they also gave me chills.
"Oh, I just wanted to ask you some questions for an article on my blog, would you mind answering a few questions? It won't take long” she asked with a smile.
"Um sure, ask away” I smiled slightly, this was odd...
"Great, have you heard of a show called My Little Pony?” She asked with a raised brow.
"Yeah I've heard of it…” ok I was starting to get nervous, just turned the TV to a new so of I'll and this lady shows up? Not a likely coincidence.
"Are you a fan of said show?” She looked at him leaning in closer.
"Um...no...no I'm not, I haven't even watched an episode in my entire life, isn't it for little girls anyway?” I chuckled, sure I had been a fan for a few years but it was difficult to tell anyone that, I knew all about how some people viewed the fans of the show. Grown men enjoying a show originally intended for little girls was viewed as weird, telling anyone seemed like a death sentence, it meant being ridiculed for the rest of your life, and...I really didn't have the confidence to admit how much I liked the show...now I just really hope she'd buy the lie.
The woman stared at him for a few moments, her crimson eyes looking into his soul, I was getting more nervous and weirded out, eventually, she smiled "Thank you for answering my questions, have a nice rest of your day sir” she started walking away.
That's it? I blinked watching her leave, I was about to ask if there was anything more but decided against it, the lady was really weird and I didn't want to talk with her anymore. Closing the door I sighed in relief and walked back to the couch.
Unpausing the show it started, taking a seat I watched the episode begin but I had a hard time focusing on it, my head starting kill me with a sudden headache, I must have stood up to quickly or something...though usually that would make the headache happen instantly not later, I rubbed my head to try and ease the pain "ugh….please let this not be a migraine…” I groaned as I did not need that to ruin this day, standing up I went to get an aspirin from the kitchen.
That was when the room started spinning, stumbling back with my hand on my forehead i tried to get everything to stop spinning "ngh..” my head was pounding it felt like it was going to explode.
I suddenly noticed I couldn't feel the carpet under my feet, my body was starting to go numb..that wasn't normal migran symptoms..panic was setting in as I turned to grab my phone off the table so I could call an ambulance or someone only to find it not there, wincing as another bang of pain struck in my head I squinted while looking for my phone, spotting it on the kitchen counter '...how the hell did it get there?? Ngh no time to be curious...' I started walking towards the kitchen counter but everything suddenly lost focus, the numbness across my body mixing with the blurred vision cashed me to trip on the coffee table and go crashing down to the floor, I barely was able to see the carpet floor coming closer before I hit the floor and everything went black.
I don't know when I woke back up or if I even did, all I knew was my mind came back to consciousness and I found I couldn't see, hear, or feel anything...I couldn't even tell if I was actually able to move when I tried feeling around myself...for all I knew I was paralyzed...god I couldn't even feel my my heart beating which by now should be beating very fast...in fact...I couldn't even feel myself take in breathe....was I even breathing?!?
Panic was filling my entire body as I tried to do anything that would bring the woods back into sight, the feeling back to my body, anything!!...but...nothing worked...I just was in darkness...
Fear filled my thoughts "what if...what if I'm dead?....what if this is the afterlife?? Just nothing, I'll just be here for eternity till I lose my mind!” I didn't want that to be true and I hoped it wasn't....but it was hard to think rationally when your blond, deaf, and numb to everything!!!
If this was the afterlife...then I definitely wouldn't last long..I didn't want to be dead, I was happy with my life and wanted to do more dammit! What did I do to deserve this? I never broke the law or hurt anyone! I thought I did everything right...I thought...I..I don't want this! Please anybody!! Help me!!!
I sobbed internally for an unknown amount of time, if time even passed I couldn't tell, I was just able to think...I could barely even do that with the panic and fear I felt, it was horrible being unable to feel anything, being unable to see anything or hear anything...
I wanted all of this to end, for it to be some nightmare, anything! I just wanted everything to come back....
I think after maybe a hour... couldn't really tell...could have been a week...maybe a year...had my mind already broke?...I couldn't tell honestly, but just as I had given up on ever escape this hell...I heard something....a noise...like..like cracking, that was when my vision was filled with a green glow, soon a strange warmth spread across my body, the glow suddenly vanished sending fear in me that it was just my imagination giving me false hope..but then I felt my feet on the ground...i felt the rest of my body, I was standing!!...and now falling!! I collapsed to the ground with a thud.
I wasn't sure weather to be happy I was alive and free from the dark hell...or annoyed that my awakening was followed by falling to the ground, I went with the happy I was alive and tried opening my eyes which was met with blurriness but I could make out trees and grass, it looked like a forest...I passed out in my house...confusion washed over me for a moment but it was replaced with a joy that I was back from that terrible nightmare or horrible hellish reality I was in, I closed my eyes smiling.
“What is wrong with this one?” A voice spoke with irritation, a voice I knew I heard it before, it was Chrysalis’s...was it the TV? But how did I hear it? I thought I was in the forest...
Opening my eyes, everything was still blurry but it slowly got clearer, I looked around until my eyes stopped on two large blackish tubes...each had holes in them varying in size, they were very familiar and I gulped as I slowly following them upwards before my pupils shrunk and I felt something pin back against my head, before me stood a sight I never believed I would see, towering over me was none other than the ex-queen of the changelings...Chrysalis.
She looked down at me before growling "Stand up now before I eradicate your existence!”
Not needing to be told twice I quickly jumped to my feet only to fall backward and hit my head on the ground, for some reason my legs weren't cooperating...they felt...wrong..and now there was a full pain on the back of my head, a momentary spike of fear struck me as this was what had happened earlier...but when the pain didn't increase I relaxed...until I remembered my situation and looked back towards Chrysalis to see her looking annoyed. But as I looked at her, I noticed something else, behind her were the mane six, I felt relief that I'd be saved until I realized they didn't look right, they were darker colored an seemed odd...
Twilight looked annoyed as she stared at me, Rainbow Dash looked uninterested, Pinkie looked bored, Fluttershy was glaring at a squirrel, and Rarity was grabbing rocks off the ground, but Applejack was nowhere to be seen.
I looked around for her until I spotted four orange legs below my vision and an orange-furred chest 'Did I fall on Applejack??' I thought with dread until yellow strands of hair fell into my vision, my eyes turned to pinpricks.
I looked between the orange body below me and the yellow hair above me before slowly looking back down at one of the hooves, my heart started beating faster as I slowly tried to move my hand, the hoof raised up slowly....
"Ah'm Applejack…” Applejack's voice spoke up in a shakey scared tone when I tried to say it, it just confirmed my fears.
Chrysalis looked down at her Applejack Clone with confusion "yes….that's correct….” She said inspecting the clone 'this one is odd….perhaps the spell made a bad copy, ugh now I'll have to make another...no perhaps I should wait, she hasn't shown any negative signs yet besides falling over, and I need to save up my magic...I'm running low of my love reserves....' she sighed annoyed at the extra work she'll have to do with this clone.
I was snapped out of my thoughts after hearing the annoyed sigh and looked back up at Chrysalis who was looking directly at me.
"Clone stand up, we're leaving” Chrysalis turned to walk away.
'Clone? Wait is that why they look odd?....then maybe I somehow got put into the Applejack clone...oh shit' I thought before looking back to Chrysalis "wait ah'm-!” I was about to say I was who she thought I was but quickly shut myself up as I thought about the repercussions of doing so, Chrysalis would most likely blow me up finding out I wasn't really one of her clones.
"You're what clone?” Chrysalis glared down at the odd clone, she was already annoyed with it and now it was wasting time.
"Ah'm...uh...ah'm ready to go….” I smiled nervously.
"Well….good….” Chrysalis stared at her for a few moments before continuing to walk 'yes...that one is very odd, nevertheless she's listening.'
I sighed in relief that Chrysalis bought it, I was gonna have to try and find the real Main Six and tell them about Chrysalis's clones, as I went to sit up i struggled to as I wasn't used to this new body causing me to fall back down sending my new golden hair in my face, I huffed blowing the strands out of my face, and then spotted the Fluttershy clone "Fluttershy, hey can you help me up?” I got confused about who was asking my question as I heard Applejack's voice till I remembered who I currently was, I was not used to this voice or accent yet...
The Fluttershy clone looked at me and smiled walking over 'well at least the clone Fluttershy is as nice as the real one’ I reached my hoof out for her to pull me up.
She smiled down at her before kicking dirt into her face “help yourself up!” she cackled as she walked away.
'Ok….she's a dick…’ I rubbed the dirt out of his eyes and spit some out if my mouth frowning 'guess I'll do it myself’ I rolled over so I was on my stomach and pushed myself up on all fours, my legs spread out wider than normal and bgeinning to shake as I wasn't used to standing like this, slowly I stood up and smiled at my achievement.
“What are you smiling at?” Clone Twilight asked the Clone Applejack who proceeded to jump and fall to the ground.
“Um, nothing….” I looked up at the Clone Twilight who was glaring down at me.
“Then quit doing nothing and get moving!” Clone Twilight yelled as she levitated the Clone Applejack up and threw her the direction the others went before following.
I hit the ground hard and groaned 'she’s a dick too…’ I stood up shakily again.
“Mine!” Clone Rarity yelled as she pulled a rock out from under the Clone Applejack's hoof and ran off to follow the others.
I fell to the ground again "ah...hate...you...all…” I muttered I'm my country accent as I got up again and started following them with a limp and wobble 'oh good, something else to make walking harder ugh...this day blows….’ I thought as I glared forward.
I followed the group the best I could, it was hard enough not being used to walking on all fours, but the limp made it so much worse, I kept tripping on rocks and roots, and have fallen eight times already and it was getting pretty annoying...
"Alright we'll take a break here” Chrysalis ordered and walked a bit away, she needed to try and figure out where to search for the Elements of Harmony.
'thank god’ I wheezed and sat down on the ground, I looked around at each of the clones who were doing their own thing.
Chrysalis decided on a direction and turned back to the clones "listen to your queen, we must retrieve the Elements of Harmony!”
"Hunting down some lame Elements? This is the worst day ever!” Clone Pinkie said crossing her arms.
The Clone Fluttershy walked over to the Clone Pinkie and scooped up some dirt before throwing it at her face smiling “no, now it's the worst day ever” she cackled.
"Those elements are mine! Along with this rock! Oh, and that twig” Clone Rarity said with a crazed smile as she grabbed the rock and the stick by the Clone Applejack.
"Knock yourself out” I huffed as I looked around and trying to ease the pain off my hurt leg.
"Heh! losers” The Clone Rainbow Dash said laying on a tree branch.
"Why didn't you just attack them?” Clone Twilight asked Chrysalis as she walked up to her.
"Excuse me?” Chrysalis asked looking down at her.
"You were close enough to pull the hairs from their manes, why not just take your revenge then?” Clone Twilight asked.
"They defeated my army, I know better than to strike alone, I need-” Chrysalis was cut off by the Clone Twilight.
"Friends?” She said with a smirk.
"Servants! And the power of the elements!” Chrysalis glared.
"Right...so where are these Elements of Harmony?” Clone Twilight asked.
"The location of the most powerful weapon in Equestria isn't something made known to just everypony, I learned they were hidden somewhere in the forest” Chrysalis said as she paced.
"Yeah, well it's a big forest,” Clone Twilight said as she walked away and Chrysalis growled in annoyance.
I held back a snicker 'bet she's regretting making these jerks’ I started to think about Chrysalis's plan, it just spelled bad news for Equestria, if these five get them while Chrysalis is in control of them than nothing will stand a chance...'I'll have to find the real Main Six and tell them what she's planning, but how will I get away from these guys to do it? I can't walk and I doubt I'll be running very fast...I needed to think of a way to separate from these freaks...' I thought as I looked at each of them.
"Come on we're going this way!” Chrysalis order as she started walking, the clones following her.
'I’ll have to think on the way…’ I stood up and limped after them, they searched around the forest for a while not finding anything, luckily this gave me time to get used to walking, though I didn't enjoy the stroll through the forest with six jerks.
Clone Twilight and Chrysalis went around a bush before Clone Pinkie jumped out of nowhere landing on the ground by them.
"I'm soooo bored! Are we there yet?” She whined rolling onto her back.
"Where yet? We don't even know where we're going” Clone Twilight replied annoyed as she looked around.
"The quicker we search the forest, the quicker we find the elements,” Chrysalis said as she walked over pinkie and past them.
I huffed as I followed them 'great so either I die by miss ex-queen, or by whatever's in this damn forest, I'm really enjoying this adventure….’ I thought as I walked.
Clone Fluttershy was walking behind the Applejack Clone before she heard a bird chirping at her "you tried to fly out of the nest, you fell, and got lost?” She asked the little bird nodded and chirped sadly, she laughed maliciously “I hope you like walking!” She laughed as the little bird started walking away and she shoved it forward with her muzzle before following it.
Clone Rainbow Dash yawned "come get me when I should care,” she said before flying off.
Chrysalis stopped walking and watched the line of her clones walk but looked around noticing two were missing, she looked at the Applejack and Rarity clones "where are the others?!”
I flinched away from her as she glared at me, I looked behind and noticing they were gone 'crap!’ I thought then looked back at her "uh...um….ah don't know…?”
Chrysalis groaned "turn around, we're going back!” She growled.
"No, keep searching I'll find the others, we can accomplish more if we split our resources,” the Twilight Clone said walking over.
Chrysalis looked at her contemplating this "very well, you have my permission."
The Twilight Clone nodded and flew off to find the other two.
I realized this may be my chance "maybe ah should go search for them too?” I went to start walking.
Chrysalis stomped her hoof "No! You stay here! I don't need any more of you getting lost” she growled, "now let's go!” She started walking and they followed.
I cursed under my breath and followed "ah'm never gonna get away from them” I said quietly as he walked "maybe ah can create a distraction to get away?....but if Chrysalis notices she'll kill me….damn it."
"What are you saying back there??” Chrysalis turned her head back to look at the Applejack Clone who she had heard speaking.
"Oh um nothing, just uh...how nice the weather is yeah, it sure is…” I looked at the sky “sunny hehe” I smiled at her.
"Wonderful glad you're being so observant, but now try using that to search for the Elements!!” She yelled glaring at her.
"You got it, Queen...Queen Chrysalis” I stuttered as I tried to keep the smile up till she looked away 'she’s a lot scarier in person...or would that be pony now? Crap! I got distracted by all this I forgot I'm frickin Applejack! Or at least her clone...shit what am I gonna do after this? Am I gonna be stuck like this??? I can't live here! I have my life to get back to’ I groaned and hung my head as I walked.
"No...If ah'm gonna be stuck like this….then ah'm not gonna let her ruin this world” I glared at Chrysalis before looking at the Rarity Clone who was picking up rocks and sticks as she walked, I smirked as an idea formed, I hurried over to her and quietly gasped "did you see that?”
The Rarity Clone looked at her suspicious, she probably was planning to steal her things "I didn't see anything”.
"What?? But she just stole one of your rocks!” I said pointing at the Pinkie Clone who was following behind them looking bored, before I fell over not used to standing on three legs, growling softly I stood back up.
Clone Rarity gasped before she pounced onto Pinkie "give it back thief!!” She yelled and the two were in a ball fighting.
Chrysalis heard the commotion behind her and turned around finding the two fighting on the ground while the Applejack Clone stood away smiling "what happened?!” She yelled.
I jumped and looked up at her before looking around nervous "Ah um don't know...they just started fighting ah guess…”
Chrysalis growled and walked to the two and used her magic to pull them apart "you both stop it!! We need to keep searching like I told you to!”
"She's a thief!! She stole my rock!!” The Rarity Clone yelled pointing at the Pinkie Clone.
"No, I didn't!” She yelled back.
"yes, you did! She told me you did!” Clone Rarity growled.
"Enough!!” Chrysalis yelled making the two flinch away in fear, looking at the Rarity clone "who did?”
Clone Rarity pointed at where the Applejack clone was.
Chrysalis looked where she pointed, finding nopony there, she looked around before she dropped the two "where did she go?!” She yelled at the two, they both shrugged their shoulders "ugh!!!! You’re all useless!!!!” She yelled into the sky.
"Get up we're going to go search for the rest of you fools!” Chrysalis growled and went to look for the others, the two quickly followed her.
i ran as fast as my new legs would take me...which wasn't very fast since I never ran in the body before, I glanced behind me as I heard Chrysalis yell "thank God that worked! But now ah'll have an angry Chrysalis chasing me...wonderful...but for right now ah need to find the main six tell them about Chrysalis’s plan and that ah'm a good clone hopefully ah won't end up like the pinkie clones from the mirror pool…”
Memories of that episode's ending came back and my pupils shrank with dread "ok let's not think about that...let's try and think of something else like um...oh like how ah'm running, I was just stumbling around not too long ago and now ah'm full on running or galloping? Whatever ah'm impressed with myse-” I tripped on a root, rolled across the ground through some bushes before slamming into a tree face first.
I slowly unpeeled myself from the tree and fell on my back, I looked at the sky and groaned in pain I felt something wet coming out of my nose, raising a hoof and touching it I brought the hoof into view and found blood on it "oh wonderful...ah broke my nose on the tree…..” I let my hoof fall to the ground.
"This has been the worst day ever….first that weird lady interrupted me from watching a new episode of mlp, than ah black out and end up in some void or hell or something where ah can't see, hear, or feel, then ah wake up in this freakin body! And then to top it all off ah'm probably never going to go home!!! Ah hate this DAY!!!!” I yelled into the sky and closed my eyes taking deep breaths “getting worked up isn't going to help….ah need to think this through...find the girls, tell them what's happening and help save the world..should be easy.."
"Oh really?” The Twilight Clone said as she landed by the Applejack Clone.
I jumped up and looked at her in fear "oh hey….Twilight Clone...how long you been there…?”
"Oh about around wake up in this body” she smirked looking at him.
"Oh….well that was um….hehe just me playing around” I started walking backward away from her "….you know when you hurt yourself by accident and you say some stuff….yeah you've done that right? Right” I started turning around to leave "ok well ah'm gonna go look for the others….so ah'll se-” I stopped talking when I turned around and she was in front of me again, I looked behind myself then in front of me at her "you're fast…”
"And you're a liar...well at least you living up to the body” she walked towards her as she backpedaled away from her.
"Me, lie? What no, no ah would nev-” I got cut off by her again.
"Shut up! You really think I'll believe your little lies? You idiot, you're in the body of dishonesty, it doesn't take a genius to figure out we're the opposite of those goody little morons….” She glared at her as she continued advancing on her.
"Ok...ok you got me...ah'm not really supposed to be her, heck ah don't know how ah'm here, ah don't even want to be, so if you'd like ah'll just go and you don't have to worry about me k?” I smiled hoping she'd buy it, the look on her face told me she didn't.
"Didn't you say you were gonna go tell the good six about us? And that you'd help them stop us?” She growled.
"Crap...ah did say that, didn't ah? Hehe well um you see the funny thing about that is…” I bolted, I ran as fast as i could trying to get away, looking back to see how far away she was, unfortunately I found her right behind me smirking, I tried running faster but she wasn't getting farther away.
She cleared her throat and looked down with a smirk.
I followed her gaze and looked down and found I was floating off the ground, looking back at her her horn glowing "oh….magic...hehe….forgot about that….would an apology help?”
“No” she slammed me into a tree hard.
I fell to the ground with a thud as everything started to get darker.
"I'm sure Chrysalis will love to hear about this….” She laughed maliciously as the Applejack Clone passed out.
I groaned as I woke up, my head was pounding, weakly I opened my eyes finding it was darker now, I looked around and saw rock walls, trying to move I found my arms restrained as I saw I was tied up in vines.
"Hey look who's awake,” the Fluttershy Clone said walking over kicking dirt in the Applejack Clones face.
"Would you knock that off!!” I growled at her but shrunk back when the rest of the clones walked over, each was smiling darkly at me.
"So, you believed you could trick me? That you will soon learn to regret...very soon” Chrysalis growled walking over, the clones all stepped away allowing her to walk up to the traitor clone, she used her magic to lift her up to her face "I gave you life! And you decided to betray me?!”
I flinched back as she yelled, this was not going to end well for me, as I looked at her I saw something behind her, behind her was the clones heading over to the Tree of Harmony, a smile grew on my face as yet another idea formed.
"You dare find this funny?! I'll tear you in half!!” Chrysalis yelled as her horn glowed.
"Wait wait wait! Ah'm not the only one who's betraying you! At the moment those five are!” I quickly told her hoping she would look.
Chrysalis growled and turned her head back and saw them, glaring as she walked after them taking the clone with her.
"We need the elements to take out Chrysalis!” Clone Twilight yelled at the four, that was when she spotted a shadow coming closer from behind and gasped looking back to see Chrysalis levitating the traitor clone.
"How dare you! I created you!!” Chrysalis yelled dropping the tied up clone and firing a magic beam at the Twilight Clone who made a magic shield to protect herself.
I quickly started work crawling away from the fight "ok, magic battle cool, not so cool to be close to” I said as I tried getting away, but got stopped when the Fluttershy Clone stepped on a loose vine preventing me from going forward.
"Whoops did I stop you from leaving? My bad” she chuckled.
"Ah hate you so much!!” I yelled and used my back legs to push myself up at her knocking her over, I bit her hair and started pulling.
"Ow!! Ah!!!” She yelled in pain before bucking Applejack Clone off, she flew through the air before slamming into a tree.
"That's three trees today Ah've hit…” I groaned as I fell to the ground, the four clones surrounding me.
Clone Twilight smirked as she shot out her own magical beam pushing back against Chrysalis's, she was winning the fight now.
That is until the elements on the tree turned black and white magical tendrils came out of each of the elements, they wrapped around each clone lifting them in the air making the Twilight Clone gasp.
Chrysalis looked at what was happening in shock and confusion as she panted from the fight.
I looked on with fear as each clone started wrinkling up, I desperately struggled in fear of the same thing happening to me, but I couldn't escape and closed my eyes in fear.
"Imbeciles! You ruined everything!!!” Clone Twilight yelled as she wrinkled up.
The Tree of Harmony flashed in a bright white glow, when it was over planks of woods colored as the clones fell to the ground, Chrysalis walked over looking down at the pile of wood "servants always fail you in the end, just wait Starlight! I will have my revenge!!!” She yelled before flying away.
After a few minutes, the real Mane Six walked down to the campsite only to find it destroyed "are you kidding me??” Twilight looked at the destroyed campsite, the day was already ruined by the fight the girls had and now the campsite was wrecked.
Pinkie laughed before turning to look at the girls "this was the worst day ever!” Her laughter was followed by the other girls as they laughed together about the bad day.
"Come on everypony, we can fix this campsite in no time” Starlight smiled.
"Spoken like a true camper” Applejack smiled at her.
"Eh...don't push it” Starlight chuckled along with Applejack as they went to go try and fix the camp.
"You know, if we can survive a day like this, I think our friendship is strong enough to handle anything the world throws at us,” Twilight said with a smile as she went to go help the girls clean up.
That was when the girls heard something coming from the Tree of Harmony, they slowly went to go investigate and found a copy of Applejack stumbled out from behind the tree, the girls looked at her in shock.
After stumbling out I looked around ‘I'm still alive? I'm not wrinkly either….’ I looked at the ground finding the pieces of wood "haha that's what you get...dicks….” I smiled and looked up, that was when my smile faded, in front of me were the Main Six,...the real Main Six all of which looked shocked "....hi...girls….ah um….got quite the story to tell...hehe….”
Today...just got a whole lot longer....
