Just another Pony.

Just another Pony- Chapter 19- Thunder Runner

Author's note: Really sorry about the long break! I have started working on a second fiction, so look for that in the future. I have the prologue and first chapter done; the prologue is ~3000 words and the first chapter is ~4000 - ~4500 words. Sorry about the break in the story though! I also have 20 done.

I woke up, thanks to a loss of heat. I could even feel a breeze, what was going on?

HOLD UP. Why the buck am I on a cloud and where's Twi?

“H-hello?” T-that wasn't my damn voice... what the hell is going o-

HOLY BUCK I'M A MARE.

Hey Tybalt, you up?

Thunder! Where are you?

Apparently, in your hea- whoa hold on, I'm actually in the library.

Excuse me?

You heard me, I'm in the library, in bed with Twi. Where are you?

On a cloud.

What? So, I have your body?

It seems so.

Well, it's morning, and I have pent up energy, and I have your body. Hey Twi....

HELL NO, YOU STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM HER.

What are YOU going to do? I just got to act like you and I could get some.

NOT IF I GET THERE FIRST.

What do you mean?

I took off from the cloud, I was still a fair way from Ponyville, but that didn't stop me. I flapped my wings for all that they were worth. I couldn't hear Thunder, which made me fly all the much harder. I had to get there before he did something that would make me kill him, and trust me, I would NOT miss him. He almost got me killed yesterday for Celestia's sake! Ponyville was coming up fast, I could see the library. I was going to do exactly what Twi told me Dashie does to get in...

CRASH BITCH. Surprise Thunder!

What the hell man? I was just about to wake her up!

That was my plan.

Twi was wide awake by now.

“Huh? Rainbow, is that you?”

“No, just someone who is about to kill this imposter.” That didn't sound menacing AT ALL with this voice.

“Ahaha! You're a bucking mare! What are you going to do as a MARE? Ahahaha -Oof!” I shut him up by tackling him to the ground.

“Hey! What are you doing to Tybalt?”

“That's not bucking Tybalt! I am!”

“What? You crash through my window and tackle him to the ground!” Aw shit, she's getting her magic ready.

“I won't let you hurt him!” Aw double shit, she pinned me to the wall.

“Ahaha! Take that you dumb mare.”

“Tybalt?”

“Yeah? Eer, I mean, terribly sorry madam, pip pip, cheerio and all that.”

“Drop the bucking act Thunder.”

“How do you know about Thunder Bolt? That's Tybalt!”

“I'M TYBALT. Just look at me Twi! That's Thunder! Now think; what was that spell Celestia casted on me yesterday?”

“An advanced transformation spell... It must have gone wrong.” She released her magic on me and I immediately tackled Thunder to the ground.

“What are you doing?”

“This bucker tried to 'get some' as he called it, from you while I wasn't in control of my body.”

“He... What?”

“That's bucking Thunder for you.”

“Say what you want cutie, but you're the one on top of me.” True, Mare me DID look like Stallion me.

“I still proved I was stronger than you.”

“Oh really? I just wasn't ready.”

I got off of him, giving him time to regain his composure.

“Ready now?”

“Yeah, why- Oof!” Boom, again.

“All right, all right, you're still the stronger one. Now get off.”

“I'm going to make sure you don't try to take advantage of anypony else. Twi, can you make like a 24 hour length holding spell? We can deal with him tomorrow.”

“Celestia said it should wear off tomorrow, so I thought ahead and looked it up.” She charged her horn, pinning Thunder against the wall even when she stopped channeling her magic.

“That should do it, thanks Twi.”

“'Ey! I'm still here! Get me the hell down!”

“No Thunder, you haven't had a body for an hour and you already earned a 24 hour timeout.”

“That's not fair!”

“Oh, yes it is.”

“Come on! I'll be good! I've never been able to walk around!”

“Twi?”

“I think we should let him out. He's been in your mind for Celestia knows how long, and he never gets to walk around. Mostly because he doesn't have a body.”

“Fine. On two conditions though.”

“Fine! Anything! I just want to see how damn fun flying is!”

“That's one of the conditions. ONE: You don't leave my sight. TWO: I MUST be able to speak to you at ANY time. You will regret it if you block me, even for a second.”

“Yeah yeah, just get me down!”

“Alright, please release the spell Twi.”

In an instant, the purple aura dissipated from around Thunder, leaving him able to walk.

“Thanks Twi. Now Thunder, you have to remember your conditions. If I have to, I will put a leash on you. Literally.”

“Yeah yeah, don't worry, I got this.”

“You better. So Twi, what do we do now?”

“I think that I should introduce you to the girls. They would probably wonder if I was walking around with a mare that looks like Tybalt all day.”

“True. So, who should we visit first?”

“Maybe Fluttershy. I'm sure that she would want to know if something happened. She IS the element of kindness after all.”

“True, so, should we go?”

“I'll be ready when you and Thunder Bolt are ready.”

“Well then, I'm sure that Thunder is ready.”

“What? I'm hungr- Okay, I'm ready.” He quickly stiffened after the pause.

We left the library (and a confused Spike) and walked on the road. I looked exactly like my old self, except I was gender flipped. Thank god I kept some of my muscles. My body type looked a bit like Apple Jack's. Of course I couldn't be as muscular as my male counterpart because it's natural, but I know how to use muscles.

“Hey Tybalt, I'm getting Tired. Can I ride yo-”

“Don't even think about it Thunder.”

“Come on! I'm a part of you!”

“Not a chance.”

“It wouldn't be sex, only masturbation!”

That was when Twi burst out laughing.

“Ahaha! You two are just too funny!”

After that she didn't say anything (more like, couldn't) because she was laughing too hard. After she had recomposed herself, we continued walking. I forced Thunder not to say anything, I did NOT want a repeat of what just happened. Dashie flew down from the clouds (I was surprised that she was already up.)

“*Yawn* Morning Tybalt, morning Twilight. Ooh, who's your friend here? She looks exactly like Tybalt, only as a... female.”

“I AM Tybalt.”

“What? Bwahahahaha!” She raised her hoof and fell over laughing to the point of tears.

“I'm serious Dashie, it was some spell Celestia tried on me, and now Thunder has my body JUST FOR TODAY.”

“Are you serious?”

“100 percent. Just ask me a question that only I would know.”

“Hmm. All right, what was 'the tape'?”

“Ugh, can we please not relive that?”

“You thought it was awesome!” It seems like she's trying to trick me. Clever.

“Are you kidding me? I still haven't forgotten that.”

“So you ARE Tybalt.”

“Yeah, we were just on the way to Fluttershy's cottage. I'm going to have to take the day off thanks to the spell and Thunder is NOT going to work by himself. I have him on a short leash, and if he does something, it will literally be a short leash.”

“Ha! All right, see you around then Tybalt.” Her eyes lingered on me. She must have been trying her hardest to not laugh uncontrollably.

The second she thought that she was out of earshot, she started to laugh again.

**************************

Ha! That was too funny! I wonder what Celestia tried to cast on him, and why it made him a mare? Oh well, I guess that I may as well tell the chief that Ty won't be in today.

I flew up to the base, relishing the wind lashing across my face. Today was really peaceful, too bad that I can't spend it with Ty. I went into the airbase and saw the chief.

“Good morning Miss Dash, you're in here quite early.”

“Yeah, just didn't think to sleep in today.”

“That seems good. Anyway, you will be working with our new recruit today. I assume you're familiar with him?”

“Depends, who is he?”

“The new stallion, Caloo.”

“Yeah, I think I remember him warning Ty to run from that crazy unicorn.”

“Yes, that was a night to remember for all of Ponyville. Anyways, he's right back here, waiting for you to be ready. He seemed excited to work with you.”

he chief led me to the waiting room. The first pony I saw was that stallion Caloo. I haven't met him one on one yet, and today may be a good time to. Ty seems to like him, so he must be cool. Anyways, I heard one thing when I entered the room.

“This is going to be SO AWESOME.” Well, it seems that he's already my fan!

“Caloo?”

“Yes Rainbow?”

“Let's get going. Hey Chief, where are we going to be working?”

“Right above Fluttershy's cottage miss Dash. She requested us to clear the clouds because her snakes and other cold blooded pets need the sunshine.”

“Can do Chief!” Caloo seemed eager to work today, I'm not sure if that is just his work ethic, or just naturally happy like Pinkie. If he is as fun as her, then this might be an interesting day even without Ty.

************************

Our little group of three had arrived at the cottage by now. Thunder was just about to knock on the door. He gave it three (not so) gentle knocks and a minute later Fluttershy came out.

“Yes? Oh, hello Tybalt! I need your help with something, please come with me!”

“Shy? That's not Tybalt, I am.”

“Not Tybalt? Wha- who are you?”

“The result of a spell from Celestia. Apparently I'm a mare today.

“Oh, well I need you with something.”

“All right. Thunder, Twi, please wait out here for a minute.”

“Can do boss.” “All right.” Thunder and Twi said respectively.

“All right Shy, what do you need?”

“Oh, it's Angel! He won't eat anything! I don't have time to make a meal exactly how he wants! I need him to eat, I don't want him to starve...”

“Don't worry, he won't starve. Where is the little bugger?”

“In the kitchen. Please, don't do anything violent!”

“Don't worry, I don't hurt harmless things.

“Oh Thank you Tybalt!”

I went into the kitchen to find a defiant rabbit with his arms crossed.

“What has you so stubborn?”

He answered by glaring at me.

“Hey Shy! Where is his food?”

“...Out the window.”

“What?”

“I was missing something, so he threw it!”

“How long did it take to make?”

“Oh, only three hours.”

At this I dropped my voice to a whisper and moved close to Angel.

“Now you listen and you listen good you little rabbit. You will stop giving Fluttershy shit and you will accept what she makes you. Got it?”

He kept his arms crossed.

“Don't remember me, huh? I think that you do; from the night that Fluttershy gave me the 'stare'” he stiffened at that. “So I have nothing left to lose, and if you think I'm above hurting a rabbit, you've got another thing coming. Now, do you got THAT?”

Angel gulped and nodded. I wouldn't hurt him, and what I'm saying now is as far as I'll go, but he doesn't need to know that. I don't mean to be harsh a lot of the time, but I don't want anyone (I mean ANYONE) to treat Shy like that. She's too compassionate and caring to fight back.

“Okay Shy, I think he's ready for you!”

“Oh, I hope so!” She brought in a marvelous tray of vegetables. The first thing Angel did was look at me and eat the salad with gusto.

“How did you do it?” She seemed surprised.

“I have my... ways.”

“Well, thank you! I just don't want my little baby wabie to starve!” Why does baby talk fit her? I have no idea.

“Any time Shy. We should be getting back to Thunder and Twi though.”

“Oh yes! I-I forgot about that, sorry.”

“You don't need to be sorry!”

“Oh, sorry for saying sorry too much.” This mare is just too much.

“Anyways, let's get back out there.”

Shy followed me out to the front yard of her cottage, and Thunder was talking to Twi. With any luck, she immobilized his wings for the day.

“Ty! You're back!” She seemed happy to see me again.

“Why so eager?”

“Nothing, it's just that Thunder Bolt is sometimes... inappropriate.” She blushed as she said that. I looked past her onto Thunder.

“Just because you have my body doesn't mean that you can do that. Why couldn't I hear you in there?”

“Now hold on! She was laughing at my 'jokes', and YOU blocked ME for whatever reason.”

“Oh, right.”

“Okay you two, we should introduce Thunder to the rest of the girls. We can introduce you to them later Ty. Would you mind staying here for a while? It will take nearly all day to introduce him, and Fluttershy told me that she needed help.”

“Oh, don't worry Twilight, I can do it myself. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you.”

I spoke up, “It's no bother at all Shy! I'll be glad to help. I'm just sorry that you can't accept my help sooner, it's like you don't think I'm capable!”

“No! It's not like that! Okay, fine, you can help.” She knew that I had her cornered.

“Thanks. What do you have to do?”

“I just needed to head into the market. I could have gone alone!”

“I can help, like I said. What will you need to get?”

“Feed for my animals.”

“Should have guessed. You care a lot about them. Come on, let's go.”

Twi and Thunder (He better watch himself) left for the town while Shy and me left for the market. I remember my first day here, where Shy showed me around Ponville. I can't believe how much has happened in... not even three weeks! Things happen fast here. I've also never been this happy. I was happy at home, I loved my wife except she never made me feel like Twi does now.

“Are you Okay, Tybalt?”

“What? Oh, yeah I am. Just reflecting on what's been happening since I got here.” She still could hardly look at me as a mare. I never thought what I would look like as a mare, but I got to say, I looked pretty hot.

Anyway, the walk to the market was largely uneventful. I was hardly concentrating on much on the way there. I was just deep in thought. The only thing worth mentioning is the fact that a mare accidentally ran into Fluttershy.

We were walking along the path, I was enjoying the scenery, when I suddenly heard Shy Squeak. She accidentally bumped into (more like the other mare bumped into her) a mare with a blue coat. She also had a cape and a hat. She seems familiar for some reason.

“Eep! Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to run into you.”

“Hey! Watch where you're going!”

“I'm sorry, I was just going to the market to get some feed for my animals.”

“You do not just walk into the Great and Powerful Trixie!”

Ohhhh my Celestia, THAT'S where I remember her from. The only pony who talks in third person and it is ANNOYING AS HELL.

“I'm s-sorry...”

“You're sorry? How does 'sorry' excuse the fact that you bumped into Trixie?” I can not believe that she is talking to Shy like that.

“Hey!”

“And who might you be?”

“Somepony who doesn't appreciate how you're picking on Fluttershy.”

“Picking on her? Oh on the contrary, she bumped into Trixie! The great and powerful Trixie does not tolerate arrogance!”

“It's not arrogance, it's called 'being nice and apologizing' for something she didn't even mean to do!”

“Why are you protecting her? Trixie did not see you in the audience at my show.”

“Because I just got here.”

“Nonetheless, she did not have the right nor privilege to touch Trixie!”

“You ran into her.”

Shy spoke up, “Uhh, excuse me? I-I don't want to be rude, but I-I don't want to make you two have a confrontation...”

“Humph! The great and powerful Trixie is too royal to let this mare stir us up. Trixie is leaving now.”

“Go on then, get out of here.”

What a priss.

Aha! Did Tybalt get in a little trouble with Trixie?

It doesn't matter, she's gone now.

Yeah, yeah.

The rest of the walk was uneventful. I didn't feel like making a conversation and neither did Shy.

We arrived at the feed market. I can't believe how much feed she has to pick up! One bag for each and every species of animal! She has to do this WEEKLY and by HERSELF? Well, now I feel like a jerk. I could have been helping her.

30 bags. 30. Bucking. Bags. We would have had to make a second trip had I not seen Caloo.

“Hey Caloo!”

“Yeah Tybalt? Wait, Tybalt? Whoa, you're a mare! Ahaha!”

“ Yeah, yeah. Mind helping me and Shy carry some bags? She had to pick up some food, and it amounted to 30 bags.”

“Holy buck.”

“That's what I said.”

I gave Shy 5 bags (I wanted to give her less, but she insisted on 'carrying her own weight'), Caloo 7 bags, and I got the rest (I have no bucking clue how I managed it.).

“Wow! How are you carrying all of those bags? That's pretty bucking impressive.”

“A lot of hard work. Let's get back to the cottage, these are heavy.”

I struggled my way all the way back to the cottage. With a massive sigh, I let down the bags.

“Wow, I'm tired.”

“Oh, I can't thank you enough Tybalt! You too Caloo.”

“Not a problem.” “Hell yeah, anytime!” Me and Caloo said, respectively.

I was as ready as ever to hit the hay tonight. I couldn't wait to be inside the library with Twi... OH yeah, that reminds me! I'm going to have to ask Butter Scotch about that room. I can't live in the library forever.

I walked home, relishing in the peace and quiet of the landscape. Ponyville was very beautiful at night when all of the lights were turned off. I can't believe how much I lucked out in being able to come here; all by accident!

I opened the door to find Spike rearranging books.

“Good evening Spike. Where's Twi?”

“Upstairs, touring around Thunder Bolt really did a number on her.”

“Please don't tell me he's-”

“Don't worry, he's in the guest bed. Twi is smart.”

“Thanks. Good night Spike.”

“See ya (he snickered), I still can't believe that you're a mare!”

“It was just for today, okay?”

“Sure, sure.”

“See you tomorrow AS A GUY.”

“Hopefully, see you tomorrow Ty.”

I walked up the stairs to find Twi in her bed and Thunder in the guest bed. I woke up Twi (after an inner conflict) to tell her that I was going to sleep downstairs.

“Hey Twi?”

“Huh? Oh, hey Ty. It got really awkward sometimes introducing Thunder Bolt around today.”

“I figured. I spent all day helping Shy get some feed for her animals.”

“That was nice of you.”

“Thanks. Anyways, I'm going to sleep downstairs, if I slept in either bed, it would get awkward.”

“Don't worry about that. Here, come sleep with me. I don't care if you're a mare or not; you're my Ty. Now come here.”

Whelp, can't argue with that.

I climbed into bed with Twi, taking our usual position. Granted, it was awkward with my mare body, but we still managed it.

Sleep didn't come quickly, but at least it did.

Again, sorry to make you wait so long!
