Trapped in a good book
an alternate universe
Previous ChapterNext Chapterthe next morning~
A yawn came from the two mares as they woke from their slumber. Lightning Chaser looked expectantly at her friend. "You awake?" she didn't wait for a response for she already knew the answer.
" I'm gonna go eat now..." again she looked hopefully at her closest friend. Nothing came from her.
"hmmm... huh wha', oh yeah uhhh," Lightning Chaser looked up hopefully at Peachie as she began to speak.
"I need to tell you something. Uh well actually... never mind." Again, Lightning Chaser went back to her state of depression, she had hope peachie would tell her something... anything. Peach Heart wanted to tell her friend of all the exiting things she had seen but then realizing she had to be patient and wait for the right time.
Peach Heart came down to the kitchen to see a large variety of food such as french toast, orange juice carrots, strawberries and other pony food.
"Wow, when you say you're hungry you really are hungry."
"It's not all for me you big knuckle head! I made some for you too. Here." the kind mare slid a plate with a flash of affection for the pink mare.
“Thanks, so uh, I was meaning to tell you something,” the pink mare was really in no mood to eat at the moment.
“Yeah, shoot.” Lightning Chaser tried to seem as if she didn’t care but truly, she wanted to hear what Peachie wanted to say more than it looked.
“Well...” suddenly she found herself completely spilling it as if there were no tomorrow.
"I went into your dream! I saw the whole thing! I’m so sorry! I shouldn’t have done it! I was just so desperate! I-” she was interrupted.
“Dude settle down! I don't care just get to the point!” Lightning shouted. Peach Heart was taken aback by her friends sudden outburst, then several heartbeats later obeyed and did as she was told.
“Well, uh okay. I’ve been thinking about what you wanted, and I’ve agreed to do it, I found a spell that’ll make it work out. Unless you don't want to anymore?” Peachie explained.
“Really?! You'll really do that for me?!” the pegasus was more excited then Peach Heart had seen her for days.
“Yes. I will." she said.
“But how will you do it?” asked Lightning Chaser, so excited she felt she might burst.
“Okay, first, I'm going to cast a spell I've found using one of Twilight's books. What it does is take us to a, well, I guess you can call it an ‘alternate universe’, we will be cats just as you wanted, we’ll look like the cats from the warriors book, but as how we want, like an avatar.”
“Awesome!!” there was a glare of happiness in the mare's eyes, just as a filly would have.
“Fluttershy is letting me borrow one of her pets to write down what we’re doing,” said Peachie.
“Okay, wait. Now I'm confused. How is her pet gonna see what we’re doing? Won't she, or he, what ever it really is, be staying here? If not they’ll get eaten alive!” shouted Lightning, trying desperately to unravel the paradox.
“Yes, I know that, which is why I'm borrowing Pinkie Pie's crystal ball so SHE won’t get exactly that!” Peach Heart explained.
“Wait, you mean your sister? Yeah, she would have that, she's such a.....GYPSY!" Lightning said jokingly.
“Dude, you're not supposed to mention she's my sister! THAT'S a whole nother story! Do you WANT to confuse the audience?!” she said breaking the fourth wall and pointing her hoof vigorously at the screen.
“Yeah, yeah!” by now Lightning Chaser didn't care for lectures, she only wanted to find out how her day was suddenly about to change.
“So ANYWAY, do you have any more questions?” said Peachie who was now becoming highly impatient with her friend.
"Lol nope." said Lightning Chaser, eager to start.
“Alright...” said Peach Heart, her horn glowing with an aqua aura. Lightning Chaser's eyes lit up, for she loved to see the colorful dust (reminding her of Lightning's idol Rainbow Dash) float around as the unicorn worked her magic. Suddenly, a silhouette of a sphere appeared, then turning into a sphere with an odd, eerie like dust swarming like a swirling storm inside. Then the same thing happened with an animal. Except this time it was a chimp.
“Ello govna’!!” said the chimp.
“What the?!” Lightning Chaser was frightened at the sight of the talking chimp.
“Pleased to meet you!” the strange animal looked as if there wasn't one thing wrong in Equestria. It had a British accent which Lightning soon realized she had already been warming up to it.
“Peachie, WHAT in the world is this?!” the blue pegasus was quite flabbergasted by the chimps way of speech, in fact, she was surprised to see it talking at all!
“Well... this is George, Fluttershy found him wandering out of the Everfree forest, and couldn't resist taking him in.”
“Well...he IS pretty cute. And who can resist that accent?" said Lightning Chaser, trying to resist squeezing the poor thing to death.
“EXACTLY what I said!! So anyway, ready to go?” Peach Heart didn't even give the two time to talk thinking that Lightning wouldn't care if they left even without having a small conversation.
“Heck yeah!" said Lightning Chaser.
“Oi!! Ello? Forgettin’ somethin’?” said George, clearly a bit irritated.
“Gah!! Really?! Okay, fine. We'll stay for FIVE more minutes!!” shouted Peach Heart.
“No no, not that! Where do you keep your bananas? Dutch ponies these days...” said the chimp, clearly trying to insult the mares.
“Okay, first of all... I'M AMERICAN...second of all, HERE!” said Lightning Chaser, trying to joke around a bit. Peach Heart was clearly amused, but she merely grunted and tried to kick her friend in the shins for the comment.
Lightning Chaser winced at the pain, then just smiled using too much effort while handing a list to the amused chimp.
“Wats’ this?”
The animal took the paper, read it then sat down at the kitchen table, “Well, alright then... off you go kitties!” at that the ponies turned to a shiny gold dust and reapeared in an alternate universe.
