"Now that I think about it, my hair is pretty cool. The tail feels nice when it is out in the open." I said in a dazed voice. "Now what are Dakota and Mitch's reactions to this gonna be?" I said to myself while chuckling. "Better go see." I said cheerfully and walked back into the living room. I saw Mitch laying on the ground curled up into a ball, hugging his black tail.

"Hey, Mitch. Are you okay?" I asked. He started crying. "Dude, don't cry. It always pained me when someone close to me cried. Especially when my step-brother... died." I said in a shaken voice.

"I-I-I know, it's just that I have a tail, and was sent home from work. I loved that job, but they just kicked me out for being different. I don't want my life to change. I don't want it to change like this." Mitch said while shacking the entire time.

"Have you seen Dakota?" I asked. Mitch nodded

"He is in his room, crying as well." Mitch said before becoming quiet again. I went down the hall to Dakota's room.

"Hey, Dakota! How are you doin' in there?" I asked while standing in the door way. Dakota was swattig at his tail, keeping as far away from it as possible.

"Get this off of me right now. I hate it" Dakota said

"You cant do that, it just wont work." I said "I already felt through it to see that it is real flesh, skin, bone, and tail hair."

"How can you say that so calmly?" Dakota asked, obviously confused. How do I say it like that? I guess I don't mind the transformation. I would have chosen RD for having great physical strength and my love for flying, but I am fine with Vinyl. How am I fine with this? I questioned to myself quietly

"I guess, I... uh... don't care. I mean, I get magic and stuff." I said deep in thought.

"What do I get? I didn't see wings or a horn on Octavia!" Dakota said angrily

"Earth ponies get great stamina. I'm not so sure about anything else they have over the others. Hey! Look on the bright side, Earth ponies are stronger than unicorns which means I would be scared of you for once." I said while chuckling at the end.

"I don't want that! I want to have wings or a horn. In fact, I don't want to be a pony at all!" Dakota said now furiated How is he going to react to being a girl if the transformation goes that far.

"I don't want to be a... pony either." I said with a pause Do I want to be a pony?

"Yeah right. You get magic." Dakota snapped

"A Unicorn's magic is fueled by their special talent. That is where their magic excels, and I'm not good with music. I only have good tastes." I said with a defeated look on my face. Man don't I have a good Poker Face!

"You still get magic." Dakota snapped

"And you will be stronger than me." I decided to snap back even though Vinyl is stronger than Octavia.

"Yet you know their atonomy better than I do." Dakota said still annoyed

"You mean autonomy?" I said with a troll face despite the situation

"Shut the fuck up, gifted kid." Dakota snapped

"I tried to play it nice, but I wont go easy anymore. Vinyl is stronger than Octavia, similar to our early life. Vinyl has tons of friends for being the entertainment at social events, similar to my family. Octavia stays quiet and only opens up to Vinyl when necessary, just like you. I'm cooler than you, just like Vinyl is cooler than Octavia. It is all very similar to our life so I think this all goes way back." I said without break so Dakota couldn't interfere

"Ok all of that is true, except that last part. You cannot be cooler than me." Dakota said

"I'm 20% cooler than you. Despite the meme." I snapped just to fit the mood. I could care less, but just for Dakota's sake.

"First. Stop the Poker Face, I know you don't give a damn." Damn, he just read my mind. "Second. Stop pulling my leg, I hate being sugarcoated." Dakota stated

"Ok. I'll tell you another time." I said

"Tell me what?" Dakota said a bit annoyed. I burst out laughing at this

"You'll see." I said in between laughs

"Dude! Tell me!" I laugh even harder

"No" I get in in between the laughing

"I'll have to find out myself, then." Dakota said

"When it happens." I say after laughing

"What do you mean by 'it'?" Dakota asks

"You'll see." I started laughing and walked back into the living room. Mitch stopped crying and was watching MLP. I cant believe it. My Little Pony. He hates that show, well he tolerates it.

"What'cha doin'?" I ask

"If we are turning into... ponies... then I would like to learn more about their life styles." Mitch said

"Good thing I already know this stuff. Wait is this the season five finale?" I asked in utter shock. It was, er, is by far the worst episode!

"uh, yea. I've been having a weird feeling that I should watch it." Mitch was scratching the back of his head

"Funny, I was feeling the same way" No really, I was.

"You gonna sit down with me, or what, brony?" Mitch asked

"Watch it." I said and sat down

"Dakota! You wanna watch this with us?" Mitch yelled towards Dakota's bedroom.

"Fuck no!" Dakota yelled back

"What ever he's missing out." Mitch said as my white pony ears swiveled back towards Dakota's room. I leaned closer to Mitch and whispered as quietly as I could do so 'Dakota just sneaked into the room'

"What!?!" Mitch yelled

"Shut up and watch the show." I said and winked

"Whatever." He said and winked back

~~~~later~~~~

"You cant beat me" Discord said and slapped Neon across the floor. He then shot a laser at him.

"NEON!!!" Vinyl yelled and tried to buck at Discord. She landed a hit on Discord's chest

"omph! You're gonna pay for that!" Discord yelled before shooting a laser at Vinyl.

"What the?" Vinyl said before getting shot by the laser. It sent her flying 50 feet away.

"Two down, One to go" Discord said with delight. Octavia was busy bucking anything in her reach

"LET ME DOWN!" Octavia yelled in a similar tone to what she used on Vinyl

"Sure thing" Discord said before slamming her into the ground and shooting one more laser.

"Wait.. this is what I saw in my dream!" Me and Mitch yelled out at the same time

"You had the same dream!?!" I yelled out

"Yea, that lasted longer than my dream." Mitch said

"My dream ended when Scratch was hit by the laser." I said

"Funny, mine ended when Neon was hit... by the laser." Mitch said

"Our dream ended when the pony we are turning into was hit by a laser." I put the pieces together

"So, if Dakota had the same dream, it must of ended when the brown mare was hit by the laser." Mitch said

"Dakota! Is that true?" I yelled towards Dakota's room. He stood up from where he was hiding.

"How did you know I was here? and yes, that's true" Dakota said

"I heard you sneak by." I said with a cheesy grin plastered onto my face.

"Shit. I thought I was quieter" Dakota said

"You were quieter, for human ears." I said

"Ahh!" I heard Mitch yell from behind me

"What?" I asked

"My head hurts. Like really hurts!" Mitch yelled while holding his hands on his forehead

"You think it might be your horn" I say without realizing how creepy that sounded

"Possibly" Mitch struggled to say

"Ahh! My head hurts too" I yelled out. The pain was exactly in the center of my forehead

"Dude! Look at Mitch!" Dakota yelled out after Mitch stopped yelling in pain

"Huh, what?" I get out with only one eye open. Mitch has a fair sized, light blue-green horn where his hands used to be.

"Can I touch it?" Dakota asked

"I guess" Mitch decided after thinking about it

"It feels sturdy, but soft to the touch. Almost like a bone." Dakota stated as he touched Mitch's horn

"Ahh! Huh?" I said as the pain just stopped suddenly. I look up to see a white horn plastered on my forehead

"Nice horn." Mitch said

"Thanks, to you too." I replied

"I was being sarcastic" Mitch said starting up a scene from 'asdf movie' that started years ago.

"Well I stole your face" We all burst out laughing at this

"Can ya'll use magic?" Dakota asked

"I think so." I said

"Didn't the infant use magic in one of those episodes?" Mitch asked

"Yea, Pumpkin Cake used some to get a toy." I said

"How did he do it?" Dakota asked

"He was... determined!" I yelled out

"So, I need to be determined to use magic?" Mitch asked

"I guess." I said

"So what do I need to be determined about?" Mitch asked

"Pumpkin wanted to fly with Pound Cake, but didn't have wings to do so. She then kept trying until her magic kicked in." I said thoughtfully

"Now what do I really want but cant get?" Mitch asked

"I have an idea!" Dakota yelled out

"Well, lets hear it" I said

"I get you really mad and get to where you can't go." Dakota said

"What about me?" I asked

"uh, throw your Derpy keychain somewhere where we cant reach it like... high up in a tree." Mitch suggested

"Or! Call his dad and tell him that Damion is a brony." Dakota suggested

"Great idea! Damion hasn't told his dad yet and never planned to." Mitch explained

"Wait, what?" I was confused

"I've memorized the number." Dakota said

"Great call him" Mitch said

"Not yet. I have a plan" Dakota said

~~~~

"STOP! LET ME OUT OF THESE CHAINS!" I yelled out at the top of my lungs. I was chained to my bed with Dakota and Mitch across the room fro me

"Nope." Dakota said cheerfully

"Call his dad now" Mitch said

"Okay" Dakota said and pulled out his blackberry

"DON'T DO IT! I'M TELLING YOU TO STOP" I yelled even louder as Dakota and Mitch snickered

"Whats the number? Oh right, 225 278 94..." Dakota muttered

"DAKOTA!" The room was shacking as my electric blue hair started to rise upwards and I started to glow

"Hi, can you pass the phone to Mr. Fra-" ka-BOOM**
