The Ponies Learn
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Uh, Hulio? Why is y-your hand on my ear?" Fluttershy asked, unable to move due to her confusion. Hulio fluttered his eyes open and jerked his hand away, blushing out of embarrassment.
"Nothing, nothing!" Hulio stuttered while wiping his hand on his jeans. Twilight had fallen asleep with The Human Skeleton open in her hooves. Rainbow Dash was awake and was searching through the fridge for some breakfast, Rarity was in the bathroom looking at her mane, Applejack was eating another apple and Pinkie was waiting at the table for something Rainbow could find for breakfast. Hulio smiled at Fluttershy, whispering "sorry" and walking up next to Rainbow Dash.
"Looking for breakfast?" Hulio asked.
"Yeah. Do you have any hay sandwiches? I'm digging one of those." Rainbow sighed. Hulio laughed softly.
"I don't have hay." Hulio stated while picking up an apple and handing it to her. Rainbow seemed satisfied and went to go eat it.
They all ate apples for breakfast. When he was done, Hulio walked over to his computer. The ponies watched him turn it on. Fluttershy also watched with the group.
Hulio went onto Google and typed in "ponies". Twilight looked at his fingers typing letters as they magically appeared upon the screen.
"How is that box doing that?" Rarity asked. Hulio turned around while the screen was loading.
"It isn't a box, it's a computer. It lets you learn about anything you want to, and you can talk to people by pressing these buttons here!" Hulio explained, pointing to the keyboard. Twilight 'oo'ed and 'aah'ed.
The screen loaded. Pictures of the Mane 6 appeared on the screen. The group behind him all gasped.
"They know about us!" Twilight screeched.
"I don't want to be dissected!" Fluttershy cried. Hulio tried to calm them down.
"NO! They don't know about you, there's this show called 'My Little Pony' and the characters look just like you!" Hulio tried to calm them down. They all calmed down soon.
Hulio got off the computer and left the house, telling the ponies not to make a sound while he went to buy groceries. He shut the door and locked it.
"I wanna try the box!" Rainbow grunted, sitting on the chair and looking up lots of stuff. Twilight started looking up historical events, Fluttershy looked up kitties and Rarity looked up fashion styles and Applejack looked up recipes for apple sweets.
"Hmm? What's this? 'Fanfics?'" Twilight said.

Hulio unlocked the door and came back inside with groceries in his hands. He took the apples out of the grocery bags and stuffed them into bowls for the ponies to eat freely. He walked back into the living room only to find the group of ponies all in one corner, blushing like mad, and staying a far distance from each other. Hulio glanced over at his computer and saw a fanfiction titled "FlutterDash" on the screen.
"Oh my..." Hulio gasped as he closed the story off his computer screen, grabbed an apple from the bowl and put it infront of the ponies.
"D-Did you write t-t-that?" Twilight asked, glancing at his horrified face.
"No," Hulio said, scrunching his face. "but somebody else did - besides, that's way too innapropriate for you anyway, so don't read that kinda stuff!" Rarity nodded and grabbed the apple and started eating it.
Hulio's grandfather clock ringed 10:30.
"Listen, we'll talk about it later tomorrow-"
"No, we'll talk about it NOW." Rainbow grunted.
"Okay, fine," Hulio said, sitting down. "ask me anything."
"Why does that exist?" Applejack snapped.
"Because it qualifies for some people's interests." Hulio answered.
"Who wrote it?"
"Somebody on the internet."
"Why is it on your box?" Fluttershy asked with anger in her voice.
"It's a computer, and it's on everyone's. You only found it because you looked it up."
"No, I looked up kitties!"
"Well, whatever you looked up, you found it somehow. Anyways, it's way past when you guys should be going to sleep. Now, listen - I didn't write it and that's all that matters. Now, you need to go to bed. You'll forget about it in the morning."
The group of ponies (except Twilight) smiled and went to bed, satisfied with his answer and fell asleep. Hulio sat on the couch next to Twilight, and sighed with exhaust.
30 minutes later he walked to his room and fell asleep on the floor (Rainbow took all the space in his bed). Tomorrow, they'd forget all about it. Hulio thought to himself.
I hope.
