I Am(Now)The Gardener

My House, U.S.A, Earth

Saturday

“GEOFFREY!!”

“Huh?” I looked at my I-pod to see what time is it.

“Twelve O’clock!” I panicked, “Oh God I slept for that long?”

“Geoffrey,” my mom walked into my room. “I need you to cut the grass, before the lighting storm comes.”

I looked at my mom, “Where are you going, and why do I need to cut the grass? It doesn't even look that bad.”

“First off,” I cut her.

“I know ‘I am your mother Geoffrey’ yep I already know the routine,” I waved my hand. “But can I at least cut the grass after the lighting storm comes?”

My mom was about to walk out of my room, “Well you know me Geoffrey, I rather do it know than later.”

“Well you got a point.” That’s pretty much how my family works so I can’t deny it.

I got out of my bed. I walked down the hallway towards the kitchen. I grab my Reese’s Puffs and some milk. Then I sat at the table, pour my milk and cereal, and began eating. My mom just walked in while I was eating.

“Where are you going?” I questioned with some cereal in my mouth.

“First off, don’t talk with food in your mouth. I am going to my friend’s house, she is very sick and her husband is out of town. So I decided to help her get better.” My mom grabs her car keys and walked toward the front door.

“Don’t forget to cut the grass Geoffrey. I will see you in a couple of days.”

I raised my eyebrow, “Couple of days, why are you going to be gone that long?”

“She has food poisoning.”

“Oh, ok then tell her that I said I hope she feels better.” My mom smiled and kissed me a goodbye.

I finished my food and washed my bowl. I walked back to my room, to change my clothes for the task at hand, and to make my bed. After I found comfortable clothes, I went to my bathroom and brushed my teeth. I got out of the bathroom and walked to the front of my brother’s room.

“Josh, are you busy right now?” I asked.

“Yeah, right now I am studying for my finals. Man I wish I was a senior,” my brother replied.

“Three more years Josh,” I laughed.

“It’s going to be a long three years.”

I laughed again, “Ok I am going to let you keep on studying. If you need me I'll be cutting the grass.”

“Ok, have fun.”

“You too,” I walked away and pulled out my I-pod.

I plugged in my earphones into the I-pod and started to play some random song. “Eh it will do.” I went to a box that was filled with hats and pull out a normal red baseball cap. I pull the lawnmower out of my garage and headed to the front lawn. I looked up to the sky and it looked like the lighting storm was coming fast.

"Well I think I can get half of the work done before the lighting storm comes." I thought. "Well, at least I can go back and watch MLP." I rived up my mower and began cutting the grass.

Saturday

Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, and Prince Blueblood are sitting in the dining room, feasting on several different freshly cooked meals. They talked about how their day was, but Blueblood didn't want to talk about how his day was...No, he wanted to show his Aunts and his sister a spell he was working on. It took him months but today he was ready to test it out. It was a-

“So Prince Blueblood how was your day?” Celestia asked.

“My day was day was great auntie...but auntie…” Blueblood smiled.

“Yes Blueblood,” Celestia replied while lifting a piece of chocolate cake to her mouth.

“I want to show you, Auntie Luna and Cadence a spell I was working on.”

Every pony in the dinning stop on what they were doing. The guards looked at him, the maids stop serving, Luna and Cadence looked at him surprised, and worst of all…Celestia stopped eating her cake. Only two things that can make Celestia stop eating her cake: 1) the impending destruction of Equestria, and 2) Blueblood actually doing something that is not involving his mane.

Cadence was the first one to break the silence, “Ha! You actually worked on a spell all by yourself!?” Cadence fell out of her chair and kept laughing, thinking that Blueblood was joking.

Blueblood shot a death glare at Cadence, “It’s true, I've actually been working on a spell!”

“Oh really, what is it?” Cadence asked after recovering from her laughing fit and looking at Blueblood with a smirk.

Luna stayed quite as the two continued to argue. Celestia looked at Luna for any ideas on how to handle the situation, but Luna just gave her sister an amused smile.

Celestia sighed, “Cadence and Blueblood please stop your arguing and Cadence please apologize to Blueblood.”

“Fine auntie...I’m sorry Blueblood for laughing at you.”

“Apology accepted,” Blueblood smiled victoriously, he turned back to Celestia and Luna. “Now I've been working on a spell that I can make a small animal appear out of thin air.”

Celestia raised her brow, “I think a spell like that is too complicated for you, nephew.”

Blueblood chuckled, “Oh auntie, don’t judge a cover by its book.”

Celestia rolled her eyes at Blueblood's improper wording while Luna and Cadence chuckled with one another. Blueblood took a deep breath and began to charge up his horn to perform the spell.

"Phew I am almost done with the front lawn." I wiped the sweat from my face then looked up at the cloud covered sky.

"Hmm, that storm is getting close. Just need to finish this last spot and I go back inside." I continued to cut grass and listen to music. It took a good thirty minutes, but at least I did half the work before the storm.

"Yes I finally finished with the front yard!" I thought fist pumping in the air. "Well at least nothing bad happened."

I put on my glasses, let go of the lawn mower, and headed towards my house.

Saturday

Blueblood's horn light up the room, every pony shielded their eyes from the blinding light. Celestia could barely see what her nephew was doing. He took something out of his flank pocket. "Ok shining artifact lets impress every pony in this room." Blueblood thought as he held the artifact in his hooves.

The artifact was a small golden alicorn with a magical jewel on the center of its forehead. A purplish glow started to emit from the artifact. “Ok Aunties and Sister here comes a little monkey!” Blueblood yelled.

A large blast came from the artifact. Blueblood was having trouble holding it, but it slipped through his hooves and it shattered on the marble floor, “...Oops”

The spell went from peaceful and humble to loud and dangerous. Lightning started to come out of his horn. Every pony hit the decks avoiding the lightning. Then one of the lightning bolts struck the table. A large creature came out of it and slid across the table knocking down all of their meals.

Hospital, U.S.A, Earth (I think)

Saturday

“Uhh...my head,” I said rubbing my throbbing head. I groaned from the amount of shear pain that was spread throughout my brain. I tried to look around but it was too dark and blurry, "I can’t see anything."

"Ok" I began to think, "I was walking back to my house and BAM! I got struck by lightning."

My nose caught the scent of something that smelled rather delicious, close to me. I tried to get up but I fell back down feeling intense pain around my body.

“AH CRAP!” I shouted in pain. I tried to move my right arm again and again, but the pain kept coming back.

"Great." I gripped my arm "I think it's broken." I never had any broken bones in my life so, I couldn't tell if it was broken or not. I continued to look around and then I started to hear whispers.

"Hmm...It’s probably my parents and the doctors."

A white and green blurry figure had appeared in front me, “Are you alright?”

“No...Mam,” is all I manage to say in between pained grunts. "Hmm she sounds so motherly...I feel like I've heard her voice from somewhere."

“Excuse me, mam?”

“Yes?” the very kind lady replied.

“Am I in the hospital?” Can’t be too sure right?

“No.”

"No?...NO!?...Oh great I’m dead." I felt tears well up in my eyes and I tried my hardest to hold them back.

“What’s wrong?” The lady asked.

“I’m dead...aren't I?” I asked between a pained grunt.

“Well no you are not? I think everypony in this room can see that you are in fact breathing.” I immediately stopped my crying and I began to look around the room again. I saw more blurry figures, a black and blue one, a pink one, and a white one.

"Wait a minute...did she say 'every pony?'"

I looked at the white figure and all it did was scream and run away. Then I look at the black and blue one, but I heard nothing from it.

Last I looked at the pink one, “Um...hi big monkey with clothes,” she said nervously.

"Monkey?…is this women racist or something. I thought we all got passed the racist terms in this country!"

I turned back to the white and green figure. I tried to keep my eyes open, but I was too tired. "Come on Geoffrey! Say something, before you pass out!"I took a deep breath as the figure came closer.

“Sup,” was all I said before sleep embraced me.
