Chapters How I Lived My Life Twice
So...Awesome!
"Oh God help me. I'm going 100 mph and unable to stop! Please save me!" I prayed. My life was flashing through my eyes, and I know what that means.
"I'm gonna die I'm gonna die I'm gonna die" I repeated. God, why won't you help me? Then everything just stopped. It was just... still. A voice came from behind me, almost as if in my head.
"You want help? How about another chance? You could start over. Live a better life!" It said. I nodded, pleading to go wherever. "Very well then. As you wish, I will bring you to the land of your dreams. Equestria." I saw myself lifting out of my own body as if I died and became a ghost. "Woah. Wait, Equestria? Hay yeah!" "Hehe, I thought you would respond like that. Oh! I forgot to mention. I will go along with you to your new life. To make sure you make it safely."
It sounded feminine, so I'm guessing she would be a mare in Equestria. A weird looking portal opened that led into a black room. "Go ahead" she said. I floated over into the black area and sat down at the table in there. The female followed behind me, and the portal closed. The room was now pitch black.
"Where are we?" I asked. "In your mind. Here we will find your paradise in Equestria, and have it, as people say, a dream come true. But first..." I felt a tingling sensation in my body. My body grew orange fur and a striped red and orange mane. Two wings sprouted from my back. My hands and feet morphed into hooves. My face grew longer and ears lengthened. "I'm a pegasus now! Sweet!" I exclaimed.
A little light shone over the place. I saw the female was now a pegasus with a fiery mane and yellow coat. "Spitfire? You are the per- I mean pony that saved my life?" "Yeah, I went faster than light in a mishap with magic. Now I can go between worlds, such as yours." My jaw dropped. What kind of magic can have a pony do that?
Spitfire flew around the dimly lit area, searching for something. "Here it is!" She said. She flew back with a portal close behind. It looked like a field of apple trees. "Hey! That's Applejack's orchard!" "Yes, I know. But when you go through, nopony, not even me, will know where you went. Most likely the Everfree forest. I will be in a different area than you due to the fact that your dreams are endless and anything can happen." I understood most of it and put a hoof through. "Be careful!" Spitfire said as the rest of my body went through.
I started falling. Wait, what? I looked down, and Twilight's tree/library/house was directly under me. "Oh horseap-" I landed, hard. "What the? Is that Rainbow Dash again?" I heard before slipping out of consciousness.
"Looks like you fell, huh." Spitfire said. "Wait, why am I here again?" I asked. "Remember? This is your mind. You are right now out cold sooooo." I understood the rest. "When do I wake up?" "Until you go through that portal." I looked at the portal which showed me in a laying position. "So I got taken in." I walked into the portal and slowly opened my eyes.
"Thank Celestia! I thought you might have been dead!" A lavender unicorn said. I slowly got up from the couch and stretched out my legs. I looked at my back and... oh great. My wings are broken. "Darn it. Now I can't fly. Not until they're healed." I said. Twilight walked up to me. "Are you okay? I think you should lay down and rest while I get Fluttershy." I got back on the couch and tried to relax. Hard when your wings are broken.
Twilight went out the door while I waited, thinking of something to do. Suddenly, a small purple and green dragon walked in front of me. "Hey there champ. How's life treated ya?" I asked. "Uh, great." He replied. "Good for you, I just started and broke my wings." I showed him the bandages on my wings. "Ouch, that must hurt." I flapped them once, cringing. "Yeah, I better not do that so often."
Twilight walked in with Fluttershy who was wearing a nurses outfit. "Oh my! That looks bad. Here, let me help." Fluttershy said as she put an ice pack on. Actually, it was more like an ice band, and it felt pretty good. I relaxed a bit on the couch.
All of a sudden, Spitfire walked in through the door. "Is a pegasus named Blaze Burn here?" She asked. I raised my hoof, going with the act, whatever it was. "Here," I called, "and broken." She looked at my wings, noticing the bandages and ice bands. Spitfire shuttered a bit, but picked me up on her back. "We have things to do over in Cloudsdale." She said before flying off. I liked the wind in my face, but I wished I was the one flying.
Spitfire landed on a cloud that was out of ear-shot. "I'm gonna have to teach you the ways of a pegasus. But first, we need to get rid of these things." She took off the ice bands and bandages. "Why am I going to try and fly with... what?" My wings were fully repaired and in better shape than ever. "When did this happen?" "You grew into a pony fast, you heal as a pony fast. Get it?". I nodded my head and gave them a little flap. Brand spanking new.
"Now for the basics. First, you need to get a feel for your wings. What muscles do your wings feel like?" I replied by pointing to my shoulder, or what would be my shoulder. "Odd, it's usually their shoulder blades. No matter, we can manage. You'll have to get used to moving your shoulders alot, though." I sighed, knowing this is going to be one of those times I get humiliated.
How I Lived My Life Twice
A/N: For this chapter, I'll be color coding thoughts. This is a slight spoiler, but the text should go something like this.
How's it going?Pretty fine. Air's blowing and sky's clear.
All I have to say.
Mailcolt
First day on the job. Well, not literally. Just have to fly around and help Derpy deliver mail. I put my hoof-made saddlebag on (Which was made by Rarity)
"House 6263 on Mane St." I flew high, looking all over for the house. I finally found it and flew down, leaving it in the mailbox. This routine went on for an hour or two and there was one letter left.
I flew up to Rainbow's cloud house. I knocked on the door and she came out. "Hey, what can I do for ya?" She asked. "I was wondering where the Wonderbolts' Studio might be." I thought I heard a squeal, but it could've just been my imagination. "Oh, let me show you." She flew out of her house and towards Cantorlot in which I followed close behind.
"So, how's it going? I'm doing just fine with the job." I said, putting sarcasm into the word 'job'. "Pretty good myself, Blaze. I was wondering though. Do you like anypony?" That question caught me off guard. "I have met Spitfire." That got Rainbow to do a fangirl squeal. "You met Spitfire? That's so awesome! How did it go? Tell me tell me tell me!" I scratched the back of my neck. "Well, it was more of a you-saved-my-life-so-let's-hang-out kind of situation. She saved my life, we got to know each other, we hanged out, and now we're friends." Rainbow dashed up, leaving a faint rainbow behind. "Come on! We got some hanging out to do!" She exclaimed.*facehoof* I sped ahead, leaving a trail of embers behind.
I caught up and grabbed a cloud, having a brilliant idea. "What are you doing with that cloud?" "You'll see." I started to fall, still holding on to the cloud. I gained altitude, and then I opened my wings, flapping as fast as I could. I felt a tremendous boost of speed and a warmer surrounding, meaning I did the Sonic Flareboom! I held the cloud behind me, causing the water to turn into steam. I did some barrel rolls, making the steam turn into a small tornado. When I stopped right in front of Dash, the tornado of steam flew around us, turning my manestyle into one resembling flames and hers into one that kinda looked like a mullet. "This looked better in my head." I said. "But you did a Sonic... um.. what should I call it?" "Flareboom?" "Right! Flareboom! Just like my Sonic Rainboom!"
She returned her mane back to it's original style. I just then remembered I had a letter to deliver and darted towards Cantorlot. "Hey! Where are you going in such a hurry?" "I remembered I had a letter to deliver." Dash stopped in her tracks. I flew over to her. "This letter is yours, isn't it?" I asked, showing her the mail. "Yep. That's the one." "I guess we won't be needing it then?" She nodded, and I tossed it away.
A sudden breeze kicked in, and the letter flew straight towards Cantorlot. We followed it, seeing it was going for the Wonderbolts studio.
"Should we go over?" "No, I wanna see what she does with the letters I send." We waited for Spitfire to finish. Soon, she pulled out a folder with about a thousand of Rainbow's messages sent to her. I looked at Rainbow, and she smiled sheepishly. We looked back, and she was just gone! "What the hay? Where'd she go?" I flew in through the window and looked around. Nopony was in the room at all. Then I heard a little voice in my head.
Hey Blaze. How's it going? I can hear you in my head? When you think something in your head, do you see it? Well, yeah. But I can hear you actually inside my head. "Blaze? Are you okay?" I shook my head and went back to reality. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a memory." Just then, Spitfire walked into the room, winking at me. "Hey Spitfire. What's up?" Rainbow Dash asked, trying to stay cool. "Hey RD. Didn't I just get a letter from you?" This is gonna be a weird explanation. "Well, Blaze was going to deliver a letter to you..."
*5 minutes later*
"...and now here we are." Rainbow finished. I woke up in a puddle of drool. "That was... interesting." Spitfire stated. "Can we go home now?" I asked. "But you don't have a home." Rainbow replied. She's right. Although, it was fun sleeping on a cloud. "Where can I get a home?" I showed off my puppy dog eyes. She sighed and said "Fine, you can sleep at my house. Under one condition." I nodded. "We have to race there. Winner sleeps on top bunk."
Like the color coding idea? The background color might not work, but whatcha gonna do about it? I have almost all of this story planned and any ideas might not be used until the eight or ninth chapter.
How I Lived My Life Twice
A/N: Sorry for the late update(and short) but I was busy doing... stuff. Anyways, the chapter gives the pseudonym for my human character. I'm never giving my real name.
Dream
"G'night, Dash." I said from the top bunk. "I still can't believe you beat me." She replied. Yeah, I won by a muzzle, Spitfire as a witness. "Would you shut your yap and let me sleep?" She growled, but nothing more. I closed my eyes, slowly drifting to sleep. I appeared in my mind again, but instead of Minecraftia, I was in a dream.
I saw myself (human) walking through the streets, head down, hands in my pockets. "Sweet, this is like a self-insert fanfic." I walked up to myself, tapping him, I mean, me on the shoulder. Jake looked back, not seeing anything, then looked down. I stared at me, mouth agape. "Yes Jake, We're real." I said. He picked me up, jumping in circles with the hugest smile I've ever seen. "Woah buddy, put me down. Don't wanna get pony puke all over yourself now, would you?" He put me down, looking sorry.
"How did you get here?" Jake asked, looking me up and down. "I dunno, I just appeared here. Listen, wanna go get a bite at Taco Bell?" I flew up and looked around. A Taco Bell was no more than a quarter mile from here. "Hell yeah!" He replied. Jake ran off in a direction that I remembered as the path to home. Probably getting the car.
A few minutes later, I hear a Porsche coming my direction. "There you are. Let's get some grub!" I flew into the car that was still moving and buckled up. "Hey, how do you know so much about this world?" I thought he would ask that. "Let's just say I know somepony from here." Jake nodded and we finally made it to our favorite fast food restaurant. He got out of the car and told me to stay here. I just waited, when I noticed a pair of headphones lying around. Might as well listen to some music while I'm here.
I put the headphones on and plugged the jack into the Ipod 6. I turned on 'Good ol Days' by TheLivingTombstone. I relaxed my hooves on the dashboard and my head on the seat. A couple minutes passed, and Jake came out holding a bag of quesadillas. "Soups on, everypony." I said. I was tossed one and caught it in my lap. "Thanks." I opened it up and began to eat. Jake went on the other side of me, also eating one.
"How's today going?" He asked. "Great. Won a race between me and Dash, helped Derpy deliver mail, got top bunk, the good stuff." He started snickering. "I know what you're thinking. I don't mean THAT kind of top bunk." I looked at the sky, sun roaming across it. "If only there were clouds. That would make a great day. Actually, if I rearrange my schedule, I could possibly make room to get a weather patrol job!" I held my hoof out to Jake's, and we brohoofed.
I was thinking about the fic 'On a Cross and Arrow' and wondered if I would meet my twin. Only, if that were real. The song 'Beyond Her Garden' started playing, and
♪You try you're best but it's not quite there.
The beat came on, and I started bobbing my head. "You look like Vinyl doing that."
"I see you made friends with yourself." She said. Jake's jaw was hung open for two reasons I know. "Yeah, this was a pretty nice trip back to the past. And Jake, you're a figure of my imagination, not vice versa. So, bye bye!" Jake disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving the headphones behind. I took the headphones, the Ipod, and left into the portal. I woke up moments later in the bunk bed. Oddly, the two items I took were still with me. "Sweet. I can take my imagination with me." I hopped out of bed, landing with a small puff of cloud. "What a day." I said, feeling refreshed.
I know, this is a pretty short chapter. But hey, it's a chapter. To make up for it, please listen to the following presented in my story.

How I Lived My Life Twice
A/N: Yet again, short. But it's the only series of event that came to mind. I may change this chapter somewhat to make it longer. Until then, enjoy!
Berry's Punch
I was walking by Sweet Apple Achres when I met with Big Mac. "Hey there. How's it going?" I asked. "Mighty fine. Apple fam'ly comin' up next month." He replied. "Mind if I come?"
"Eenope. Ya can come down here anytime."
"Okay then, see ya later." I flew off towards Sugarcube Corner to get a cupcake for breakfast. Not many people know, but sugar is a main part of our diet. Pretty 'sweet' huh? "Hey there Blaze! What can I getcha?" Pinkie asked in her usual highly energetic tone. "Surprise me." She bounced off into the kitchen while I put my headphones on. I played 'Rainbow Nukestep' on the Ipod and just sat down, bobbing my head. A minute or so later, my headphones were pulled off. "Hey? Who did that?" I looked behind me and Vinyl Scratch was bobbing her head with the headphones on. *Spromf* "Damnit wings! Why'd you have to do that?" I pulled my wings back in before Vinyl saw. Some ponies were snickering while one was just plain cracking up. Luckily, Vinyl didn't hear any of it. "When I get my dignity back, you'll see." I said through gritted teeth. Vinyl took off the headphones and gave them back to me. "Rad music, where'd you get it?" She asked. Tough question. "Umm... I made it myself. Yeah! I made it." I was smiling awkwardly, looking side to side. "Works for me. Wanna go check out my studio?" I was hopping in circles with joy repeating "yes yes yes yes!". I stopped in midair, noticing the awkward moment. I fell flat on my face, which got everypony to laugh. I got back up, eyes spinning until I shook my head. I've always been the laughing stock, but this? This is crazy. "Are you okay?" Vinyl asked. I brushed off my legs and replied with a smile and a nod. We walked along, having a conversation about music and, for an odd reason, sunglasses. "then I said 'Get back here!' While he ran away like a foal. And that was how I beat up Silver Hoof."
How I Lived My Life Twice
Secrets Revealed
Been a while, hasn't it? Anyways, I meet the Cross and Arrow gang next chapter. Hope ya like it! As for Arthrot, keep that secret, a secret.
Secrets Revealed
"So Berry's Punch is actually her recipe and not in her possession?" Spitfire nodded. "And until you're not in a coma anymore we are stuck here." That's another thing in mind. "Why am I in a coma, though?"
"Oh, forgot I could do that." I walked around in circles, searching for something, anything we could do. "What do you wanna do?"
I kicked the flicker and it spun until landing on a red dot. "Left foreleg red." I said. She put her left hoof on a red dot. I kicked the flicker again, and it landed on a blue dot. "Right foreleg blue." Spitfire did as told.
*10 minutes later* "Right wing green" Spitfire moved her wing over, and fell in an instant. "Alright, score is..." my jaw dropped. "...3462."
"Twilight? What are you doing here?" I asked. She started wobbling back and forth until she passed out. "Spitfire? Do you have any idea what's happening?" She shook her head. Now it's my turn to take care of a passed out pony. I animated a bed and put Twilight on it. "The amount of questions soon to be asked I don't think I can handle."
Twilight was slowly opening her eyes. "Ugh, my horn..." Here goes nothing. "Huh? Where am I?"
"You hungry?" I asked. "Yeah, I was trying to cast a teleportation spell when a certain pink filly shouted out. I touched the wrong leyline and here I am." Her stomach rumbled again. I thought about something for a moment, and a hay sandwich materialized in front of her. "How did you-"
Umm, Spitfire. Could you possibly go into Twilight's mind to try and find a reason behind all of this? Maybe. I'll try, but it might not be successful. She pulled out a portal from the darkness and tried to step through. Spitfire successfully entered the portal into Twilight's mind. "Heh, Mindception."
Twilight, do you hear me? Huh? What's going on? Guess I'll have to explain. I'm not a pony. You see, I was about to die in my, I would say, previous life in another world, until Spitfire came into the picture and things went up from there. I became a pegasus, got to know you all, and can communicate to Spitfire any time of the day. I believe when she entered your mind the link connected and now we can telepathically talk to eachother as we do now. Also forgot to mention, if I take anything from here into the portal to real life, it goes with me.
Twilight was trying to take all this in, and found one error. I have a question. How did Spitfire get into your world? Spitfire took the lead this time. There was a magical mishap in Cantorlot, sending me at light speed. During this ordeal, there was magic flowing through me, and now I can travel between worlds and into minds. Twilight seemed satisfied.
"Do you know how we can get back to real life?" I asked. "Well, if I can track the leyline that goes to outside, we can get there in no time!" I nodded, glad I wasn't stuck here for eternity. I had an idea, going to have a prank with Twilight. I thought of two other ponies like me. One had yellow fur and a red mane. "You can be the good, complimentary one." The other one had red fur with a yellow mane. "And you'll be the rude, discomplimentary one. Not too rude though."
Ha, I could actually make ponies of my liking. I walked up behind her, while the bad one was above her, and the last one was in the distance. I poked her shoulder, then flew away. -This is the stupidest plan ever.-
I woke up in a grassy area, eyes starting to focus on a butter yellow pegasus. "Fluttershy?" I asked, before passing out. I was back in my head, with a very worried Twilight pacing back and forth. "Excuse me, Twilight? Are you-" Surprise Hug of Death and Friendship. "Oh my gosh Blaze! I thought I sent you off into the middle of nowhere!" She cried. "Well, I did get sent off to another place, and I think Fluttershy was there." "Well, at least we know your body is safe. I'm wondering though, how did you end up near Fluttershy if your body was at Vinyl's house?"
My eyes were the size of dinner plates by the time she said that. But then what about… I made a huge realization, and a grin planted on my face. "On a Cross and Arrow!"
Spitfire, could you find the portal? You got it. Spitfire walked out of the portal she entered Twilight's mind with. She then flew up into the darkness, coming back down with a new portal. "Jump through this, it'll take you back to yourself. But you probably already knew that." I nodded with a smile, and flew straight through the portal.
How I Lived My Life Twice
A/N: I have yet to post a chapter to my new story, "Chronicolt." I have thought of it just after watching the movie and hope nopony else has thought of it yet. Will not be completely based off of Chronicle, but has multiple elements like it. Hope ya like this one, too!
Party Fire
I opened my eyes, seeing a wooden ceiling above my head. I'm gonna act this out. Whatever you decide on, Blaze. "Oh! Hi there, what's your name, i-if you don't mind..?" I heard a shy, semi-masculine voice say. "I'm Blaze. Where am I?" I ask. "Well, I saw a bright light in the middle of the path and you came out of it. It looked like a teleportation spell, but I'm not sure. I took you inside my cottage so you could rest." I sit up, looking around the room. "Do you know anypony else that looks like me?" I ask. "Well, there is Fire Fury. She got here a couple days ago, and seems to be missing most of the time." I jump up, running straight for the door. "Can'ttalknowIgottagomeetherbye!" I open the door, and fly off in a direction.
Spitfire, you still there? I'm in your mind, what do you think? What about Twi? Still here Good, because I want you to come out here and see this.
"So, you wanna show us what, exactly?" Twilight asked. "We are in Equestria!" I exclaimed. Twilight facehoofed. "I know that. Tell me something I don't know."
I hopped ahead, looking at all the male versions of ponies, and some female. "Hey! New guy! Whatcha doing?" I turned my head, seeing Rainbow Blitz and what I'm guessing is Fire Fury. "Sup." I replied. The two landed next to me. "You look familiar... have I met you before?" Blitz asked. "Um, not exactly."
I know who you are, you're me! Well duh. Me and Fire stared at each other, looking at our features. How did you get here? Spitfire brought me. Hold on, I just made a realization. What? If I am you, then we both came from our worlds, right? Yeah. Oh! I see where you're getting at. "Are you two okay? You've been looking at each other for almost 3 minutes." Blitz said. "Yeah, we're okay." Fire replied. Maybe... Are they in love or something? A deep red blush appeared on my face. Why are you blushing? N-nothing.
The three of us walked off to Sugarcube Corner to get cupcakes. "So, how's it like in Ponyville?" Fire asked. "Pretty good so far. Made three friends already." I replied. "Oh? Who is the third?"
"That'll keep you quiet for a few seconds." I mutter. Where'd you get that? The PPIC. That is? Let's say the BBOR. Oh, the Bubble Berry Object Retriever. Whatever floats your boat. "Thanks for the cupcake! Oh, what's your name? I have to know or else I can't hang the streamer with the right name! It would say 'Welcome to Ponyville, Anonpony!' and that would be weird." "My name is Blaze Burn and I came from..." Darnit, I didn't come from Ponyville, because I'm in Ponyville. Oh! "...Baltimare." I finish. "Great! I'll be right back!" Bubble says before dashing off. "Sorry for that, it's just the way he is." Blitz apologized. "Don't worry, I'm used to that." We walked in, standing in a dark room. "Probably working on the-"
"SURPRISE!" I jumped up and hit the ceiling, my head breaking through the boards and getting stuck. "Awkward start to a party." I muttered. I hear hoofsteps coming up the stairs. Dusk Shine walked through a doorway by the stairs. "Let me help." He said. I feel a tingling sensation as his horn glowed and soon I'm flying through the hole, making it bigger. I looked back, and the floorboards were starting to repair. "Thanks. What's your name?" I ask. "Dusk Shine. I'm one of the Elements of Harmony and Celestia's student." I was put down, brushing off bits of dust and dirt off my coat. "Nice to meet you, Dusk. I'm Blaze Burn, but you can call me Blaze." We shook hooves and headed downstairs. "I'm okay everypony, no need to worry." I heard a series of ponies letting their breaths out. I wonder what Bubble is thinking. Mind Blocked. Oh well, whatever was in his head would have fried mine, anyways.
"Now that we know you're okie dokie lokie, let's PARTY!" Bubble shouted. The party was pretty much like a regular party in my ponyville, but with less mares and more colts. I avoided the punch to avoid the possibilities it was made by Punch, or whatever his name was. "Hey, Blaze!" I turned to see who the voice belonged to. "It's time to cut the cake!" Bubble was calling out. I flew over to the table everypony was gathered at.
There was a red and orange cake with 12 candles on top. The icing said "Welcome to Ponyville Blaze!"
"Blaze, what was going on?" Dusk asked. "Um.. I don't really know. I tried concentrating on the fire." Dusk put a hoof to his chin, probably racking his library of memories. "Have you ever had an experience with fire?" He asked. "Well, I did have an obsession with fire at a young age." I replied. He took a quill and scroll and calculated a few things. I looked around, and all the guests were gone. Probably doing something else. "Got it! The possibilities of you having magic is 1 out of... where'd everypony go?"
We go to where the party was replaced, which only a few ponies were left. The mane six and a few well known background ponies in colt form, and Fire Fury. "How was the party?" I asked. "It was awesome! We played pin the tail on the pony, oh! And we played beanbag tossing! Applejack won because he is the best at it. Oh right! Rainbow Blitz st-" I shoved a cupcake in Bubble's mouth yet again. "Never should have asked..." I waved goodbye to the six colts as me and Fire flew off. "You know you can do that, too." I said. "Yeah, you're right. But wouldn't Dusk or somepony else get suspicious?" I ponder the question for a moment, then shrugged. "We both have a flame cutie mark, I don't think it would be that surprising." Fire agreed and both of us landed on a nice big cloud. "Well, g'night, Fire."
How I Lived My Life Twice
Hey, wazzup! Okay, so I've been keeping a secret with Arthtrot that is hinted at in this chapter. If anypony notices it, message me. Cya!
On a Date With Yourself
Basicly, ponyville is EXACTLY the same as ponyville. I've mastered controlling my magic of fire, up to making fire hurricanes (We all know how that turned out). I've also started to switch personalities randomly between me and the clones I made a while back. I thought they were gone. Damn Negafire burnt Rainbow Dash! He also molested... nevermind. Posifire is in control right now, flirting with the mares. I should really learn to control them, or things could get ugly. "Hey there, Colgate. How's it going? I heard you like it when I do this." He (I) took out a brush and started combing her mane, saying "Brushie brushie!" I swear if I were to switch back right now I would be blushing so hard my cheeks would set on fire. Colgate stretched out for a bit before getting cozy on a bench. I could hear light snoring and Posifire seemed satisfied. From where I was, a portal opened up and I was sucked in. "Guess it's my turn." I said as I was now standing where Posi was. I looked at Colgate, and couldn't help but say "d'aawwww." I picked her up and dropped her back at her house. "I need to see if I can control these new personalities." I galloped over to Twilight's tree and knocked on the door.
"Seriously! Ponies these days don't get this is a PUBLIC library!" Twilight shouted. The door swung open to reveal Spike. "Oh, hey there. Where's Twilight?" I asked. "She's in the basement right now testing on a new potion. She said to stay out of there. For all I know it could be a cure to cancer." He replied. Secluded pony is secluded. "Well, are there any books on split personalities?" Spike hopped onto a ladder, which rolled down the shelf as he grabbed the book he was looking for. The ladder made an abrupt halt and Spike hopped back off. "Split Personalities 101. Seems like most of these informational books are titled Hitchponies Guide or 101." I grabbed the book and was on my way. "See ya later!" Spike waved goodbye to me. Why he didn't ask why I want such a book, I haven't a clue.
I flew up to my new cloud house (more condensed clouds for better protection and fireproofing), broke down the wall, and walked inside. "Like a boss." I flopped onto my bed and opened the book. "Time to be an egghead."
*Five minutes later*
"Okay, so if this works, I'll be able to control Posifire and Negafire." I made the final indents in the cloud floor and opened a jar of rainbow. I poured it in, the liquid spectrum filling in the lines. "Now for the final touch." I pulled a hair out and placed it in the stream of rainbow. It glowed red, then orange, then yellow, and so forth. Then the unexpected happened.
The rainbow glowed a sickly green and then drained of color. My body felt like it split in three. Oh wait, it did. "Well, this was a failure." Negafire said. "And sure was an ugly one. Look at the liquid!" Posifire said. "Guys, can we get along and NOT try to point out the bads? The good thing is that we're together and not either out cold or locked in the prison of my head. Ugh, how am I gonna explain this?" I paced back and forth. "Let me look in the book for a reverse circle." I checked the book for it. That's when I noticed the fine print. "How to split personalities? Just great. No going back." I said bluntly. "But what about the reverse circle?" Posifire asked. "Did you not hear what I just said? No going back!" He backed up into a wall.
"Guys, idea." Negafire said. Me and Posi paid our attention to him. "You don't have to explain. We can stay in your mind while you can do what you need to." Seemed like a good plan. I looked at Posi, and he nodded. "Well, it's settled. You two, up here." I pointed to my head. They both circled a hoof with fire, creating a portal, and jumped in. You in there? ±Yeah±. I still don't get how I can be in my own head while also being in the real world. Just think about it.
"Hey Blaze! You there?" I heard an orange mare call "Coming!" I replied. I flew over to the door. "What do you need?"
"Anyways, we'd like a watermelon flavored smoothie. Large, please." Fire said. "Okay then! Wait right here!" She flew off towards the kitchen, leaving a cloud of dust in her wake. "Seriously, where does she get that much dust?" I asked. -Don't question Pinkie Pie.- "I'm baaack!" Pinkie shouted. I took the drink from her hoof and put two straws in it. "Thank you, Pinkie. Here's a tip." I dropped three bits into her saddlebag. "Thank you, too! Now stay here, I've got other ponies that need service." She darted off, and I took a sip of the smoothie.
"Is it great in Ponyville, the Mare version? Surrounded by your kind all the time, as in females."
The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. Other than the fact I almost DIED by drowning because I didn't know how to swim with hooves, pretty uneventful. "Wanna sleep with me tonight? My bed is pretty large."
How I Lived My Life Twice
A Series of Unfortunate Events
Hello! I'm Blaze and... You know what? Let's just get done with this already. The secret me and Arthrott have been keeping is revealed in this chapter! If you don't notice it, i'll point at it with golden arrows.
A Series of Unfortunate Events
Remember what Fire said last chapter? Yes, I broke the fourth wall, deal with it. Anyways, I figured out that when I share a dream, it is REALLY tiring. My brain couldn't register thoughts properly. It was like this:
Thank you, Posi. You were a life saver (Not Really). We regained most of our strength after a quick nap, staying out of eachother's minds, and flew down to Sugarcube Corner to regain the rest of it. "Hey lovebirds! What can I getcha this night? Well actually, it's morning! And you can't have a cupcake or a drink at night in the morning! That would be-" Me and Fire shoved a cupcake in her mouth at the same time.
Did she just read our minds? Maybe. We might need to be careful around her for now. Yeah. Unless... Pinkie will be talking non-stop when she returns. What are you trying to do? Mind Control! Fire mental facehoofed. We waited for about 27 seconds while hearing a musical number from the kitchen. When Pinkie walked out of the kitchen, she was Non-stop talking .
"You know when I was a filly it was the first time I started baking with Grammy Pie and she was a great baker but the cupcakes were gray and black but not burnt which is odd why they weren't either yellow or white and then when I tried baking the cupcakes were very delicious I'm not saying Grammy Pie's weren't good but mine were better and..."
All of a sudden, the all-famous TARDIS appeared out of nowhere. Doctor Whooves accompanied by Derpy Hooves were standing in the doorway. "Do you think this is the right time, Derpy?" He asked. "It says 2002, I believe so." Derpy replied in a more serious tone than normal. "That's the one! Now, do you two happen to be Blaze Burn and Fire Fury?" We nodded slowly. "Alrighty then! Let's get this over with. Derpy, if you'd please?"
"Shall we go then, Derpy?" He asked. "Absolutely Doctor!" She replied happily, and the two hopped on board, shutting the TARDIS' door. There was a buzzing sound, and the Time traveling police box slowly disappeared. "What was that all about?" Fire asked. "Pietrisycamollaviadelrechiotemexity" I replied. Fire looked at me in disbelief. "How the buck did you pronounce that?"
*That Night*
"Yippie Kie Yay, Motha-Bucka!" I yelled as I smashed the creeper's head. "That's enough for the night. Time to store this stuff and hope I can get good shuteye." I galloped up to my house, walked in, popped the stuff in a chest, and got sucked out by a blocky portal, in which I was placed on a dock.
"Oookaaay..?" I said. "Blaze, your time has come. You must no longer live with the lives of innocents." A voice, threateningly deep, announced. "And why me? If you already know my whole story, then don't bother to answer." Silence. "Okay, so why am I a threat or whatnot?"
My breath was being released into bubbles as I shouted for help. All the ponies I became friends with will miss me forever, without a sign as to who in Equestria would murder a pony. No...
Never!!!
"King Quantum?! You, of all Equestrians, would try to drown somepony?!" I yelled. [I'll explain later] He started to open his mouth, but I interrupted. "I know, you had a reason, but murder?" Quantum looked down in shame. "I'm sorry for everything. I lied about the havoc in different worlds. But there is a greater power behind all of this. He controls me. His name is John Rig-" Before he could finish his sentence, a green light replaced his form, soon disappearing. "Wait! John who?" I yelled. All that replied was the waves of water and the chirps of crickets. "Why is that name familiar?" I asked myself silently.
How I Lived My Life Twice
WOOPS! Accidentally posted the wrong chapter! Just forget that chapter and start back from here, that is, if you read it. If you didn't, don't read this. But you just read it! On with the story.
Nuked
I walked the long path ahead of me. What was ahead, I had not a clue. But as I walked further, a huge explosion, blue and red, appeared. "What the buck was that?" I shouted. I started running, when I noticed something wrong. I was too busy to notice I was a unicorn . "I'm a unicorn?! When did this ha-" realization hit me in the face, hard. "Riiiiiight. That part." I tried to teleport towards where the explosion was, but nothing occurred. Not even a horn glow. "Guess I'll have to run..." I sighed.
I began running again towards the explosion. I was getting near, when I heard a voice. "Is that... singing?" I asked. I ran over to the song. " I can't remember, what's happened in September. Where everything is gone, when it's dark and I'm alone. It's been forever, since I could have remembered. Where the Hell is everypony? I just wanna know the story of what happened right before, I became so alone... "
Just to stop and take a moment, I'll explain how 'he' looks. He is a gray earth pony with a blue spiky mane, red at the tips. He wears blue headphones wherever he goes and has a cutie mark,almost invisible, of a silhouette resembling a 'tombstone' with spiked boots, spiked gloves, and similar headphones. His eye color is brown and his tail is spiky as well.
"That doesn't matter. We need to find a way to survive before you remember what happened one minute ago." I said. He gave me a look that perfectly described "This happened one minute ago?" I nodded to him and began to scavange for food. I'm guessing he also started because I heard the scraping of rocks.
*10 minutes later*
It's been a while since starting, and we've found plenty of food to last a week or so. While continuing the search, I heard wheezing under some rubble. "Tomb! Come help me with this! I think we have a survivor!" I shouted. Tomb ran over to my side and we lifted most of the rocks off, just enough to pull him out. He had a blue and red mane with a dark red coat. The mane was slightly curly while the tail was sleek and long. His eye color was a light blue while his cutie mark was a compass. He also had some sort of bracelets around his hooves. "Come on, speak to me!" I said. All I got was a soft groan. "I think we have to let him rest. He's been through... whatever happened here." Tomb implied. I nodded and lifted the pony to my back. "Please Celestia be okay " I said. We made our way to the least destroyed home we could find and walked in. I put the pony down on a bed and rested my saddlebags on a table. As I took out a bottle of water, something caught my attention that I didn't notice before. The water had an aura around it, much like the fire of the candles. "Does this mean I can control water?" I said to myself. I opened the cap and tried what I did with fire to the water. The water slowly rises out of the bottle and took form of a cube. I did a mental high-five to myself and put the water back in. "I think he's waking up." Tomb said. I looked over my shoulder, and the pony was sitting up. "W..what happened?" He asked. "Equestria basicly got nuked, my friend." I replied. His eyes were the size of platters by the time I said that. "The Everfree!" He shouted, and galloped off. "Come on, we need to keep an eye on him!" I said, and started to follow after him. When I caught up, he seemed to be in tears. "Are you okay?" I asked. He got up from his position and walked past me, saying "Just leave me alone..." He trotted all the way back to Ponyville, meeting Tomb halfway. They seemed to be talking, the dark red pony getting very emotional and Tomb calming him down. Tomb finally caught up to me and followed me back. We both made it to the house and sat ourselves down. "His name is Ferote Eerfeve and is actually an orphan. He lived in the Everfree forest for ten years and says he has the 'Spirit of the Everfree' in him, whatever that means." Why is all of this so familiar? Am I not remembering something? I sat down to think, but that was interrupted by a large, bright explosion. "Again!?" I shouted. But when I looked outside, things seemed to be normal as ever. Ponies were enjoying themselves, fillies and colts in school, the Elements doing whatever they were doing. Like everything went back in time before the nuke. "Hey Tomb, come che... Tomb? Oh horseapples!" I shouted, and burst out of the door. I'm running because a bomb is about to go off in some amount of minutes. I bumped into about ten ponies, apologizing each time, but quickly running back on the trail to the windmill. I arrived, finally, and hopped on one of the fans to get to the top faster. I hopped off at the top and burst through the roof. "...You see this button!? I'm gonna press it!" Tomb shouted to nopony. As his hoof was heading for the button to nuke Equestria, I pushed it out of the way. "Tomb! Snap out of it!" I said, while simultaneously hitting him across the face. His eyes rolled around until he blinked a few times. "Huh... what?" He said. "Thank Celestia. Now let's get you out of this windmill." I replied, and hopped back through the roof with him in hoof. "Hey! Let go of me!" He shouted. I landed on the ground and laid him on the floor [That came out wrong, didn't it?]. "Now to defuse the nuke." I hopped back into the hole in the roof and down to the control panel. "Let's just take this button out..." I said as I ripped it out. Bad idea. Red lights flared and sirens blared as a giant hole in the floor opened up and the nuke shot out. "Well, buck." I hopped out of the hole and down to the ground in an instant, and ran around looking for Twilight. "Twilight! Where are you?" I called. Everywhere I looked, I couldn't find her. Looking up at the nuke, I noticed it was slowly getting larger. "Not good." I searched every nook and cranny for her in Ponyville, not finding her. I looked outside of Mayor Mare's office, and everypony was panicking. "Definitely not good." I looked up, and the nuke was about twenty miles high, coming closer. "I guess I'll have to do this myself... *gulp*" I walked outside and strained every muscle I could trying to do something. The Warmth! I focused all I could into my internal magic, and my horn glowed. "It's working!" I said gleefully. I put all I could into stopping the nuke, but it only made it slow down. Then, about five tons of strain lifted off of me as I felt two new forces of magic. I looked behind me, and both Twilight and Celestia stood behind me, using their magic. I let off all of my magic after I helped slowly let it down to the ground. As we finished, I looked back to Celestia and Twilight, both smiling at me. "What you did there was a very brave thing. And being able to at least slow it down is impressive. Now, what is your name? I haven't met you before." Celestia said in that soothing voice of hers. I cleared my throat as I said "Aqua Scepter."
How I Lived My Life Twice
My Cutie Mark! And Another Fall...
My Cutie Mark! And Another Fall...
"Come on, you can do it!" Shouted Spitfire. I was flapping my wings as hard as possible, trying to get to cloud level. I didn't even make it off the ground.
I was falling quite fast and gaining altitude. 'Come on! Flap your wings!' I shouted to myself. My wings started flapping and right before I hit the ground, I did a 90° turn upwards. A fiery trail followed me as I flew up. That, along with what I call A Sonic Flareboom.
"Awesome!" I yelled. Spitfire stared at me, her mouth wide open. In a flash of white, something appeared on my flank. I looked back, seeing a fire cutie mark. I looked ahead, running into the famous mailmare, Derpy. We bonked heads and she was out cold, I was dazed and my wings stopped flapping. We were both falling headfirst towards Twilight's tree/library/house. "Not again." I said. We made contact with the balcony and I was knocked unconscious.
I was in that same dark room again, my own mind. "You there Spitfire?" I asked. No reply. Great, I'm stuck here until she comes back. Maybe I can have a little fun while waiting! I closed my eyes and thought of being in the world of Minecraftia. I opened my eyes, and thousands, no, millions of blocks were scattered everywhere. "Sweet!" I tried to flap my wings, but it appeared they stayed flat against my body. "Okay, no flying." I walked up to a tree and beat the living crap out of it. And man did that hurt! I got three blocks of wood and crafted them into twelve planks. I used four of them to make a crafting table. Two I used for sticks. Then I made a wooden pick.
"Time to start-" a portal popped in front of me and a pixelated Spitfire walked out. "What have you done here?" She asked. "I used my imagination. This is my mind, right?" Spitfire rolled her eyes and got fourteen blocks of diamond out of nowhere. "What? How did you do that?" She placed the diamond in a rectangular shape. Then she preened a feather and placed it in. A pink portal opened up, leading to my real self. "I used my imagination." Spitfire said as she disappeared into the portal she came from.
I hopped into the other portal and woke up in the real world. "Thank Celestia you're awake. I thought you might not because you already hit your head before. How did you get up there in the first place? And why was Derpy with you?" Twilight asked. "Long story, and it might mess up your book-wormy mind." I replied. I looked over at the other couch where Derpy was sleeping. "How long have we been out, anyways?" "A couple hours. I found you two on my balcony after I heard a crash. You only had a couple head injuries. As for Derpy, she broke a wing and her right foreleg." I had a feeling this was all my fault. I could have stopped and saved us from the incident. Now Derpy has a broken wing and leg.
"Will her wing heal?" I asked, curious. Twilight looked down and said "I'm afraid not. Her wing broke in three places and unfortunately a fragment scratched the joint in her wing and it's beyond healing." I'll never forgive myself. Suddenly, Rainbow Dash walked in, looking at me, then Derpy. "What's happened to Derpy?!" She asked. Oh horseapples.
"Rainbow! Stop that! He's hurt!" Twilight shouted. Rainbow Dash got off me, but was still glaring at me. The two were arguing while I was waiting for Spitfire to appear from nowhere and take me with her. Derpy was slowly opening her eyes while holding her head. "Oww, what happened?" She asked. The other girls heard her and gave her a group hug. I also joined in. "Thank Celestia you're okay, Derpy! We thought you would never wake up!" Twilight said. "Yeah, and about what happened. We had a head on collision in a flying accident. You were knocked unconscious while I was dazed and couldn't fly properly. We both fell towards Twilight's balcony where you landed on your back and I landed head first." I explained. "Bad news is, your wing has been permanently broken. Good news is, I'm gonna help you deliver the mail! That's what friends are for, right?"
Derpy was on the verge of tears, but smiled. "Thanks, umm..." "Blaze" "Right, thanks Blaze." She gave me a hug and I hugged her back. Derpy cried in my shoulder, making my fur a darker orange.
