My Little Pony: The Silvermane

Paul was not feeling all that happy at the present moment... After the Mane 6 had agreed on him staying at Fluttershy's home, he was pulled aside by Princess Celestia and asked the one question he was dreading, and even though she asked in such a low and calm tone so only Paul could hear, he knew she would not let this one thing go...

"The wereponies of this world were... Resistant to most forms of damage and could heal from all but the most devastating attacks, sometimes even healing wounds in seconds."

The Princess of the sun's eyes narrowed as she whispered to Paul, "So you must understand, I will not hesitate to protect my little ponies. Now my question... In your world, is there anything that your kind have a weakness to? I ask you to be honest, as this could mean a matter of life or death later..."

The man gave a defeated sigh and glanced over at the still chattering group of mares across the room, then to the Princess of the night, who was watching both him and her sister with a raised brow. Paul knew if he turned suddenly, be it from losing track of the lunar cycle or if he  lost his cool and let the chains holding the beast inside him grow too loose, many would get hurt...

"Fine... So far you ponies have been nothing but rough and annoying, but I don't want to see any of you getting hurt. Ok... Basically, you have the right idea, if you do enough damage in a short amount of time, our bodies cannot recover fast enough, however, if you want to kill me quickly, then..."

Paul flinched and sighed, leaning closer to Celestia as he did so, before whispering.

"Silver... The merest touch of that metal makes my kind's skin burn, or if they are lucky, just leaves a rash."

Celestia gave Paul a serious stare, looking for any sign of dishonesty in him.

"What does an allergy to a precious metal have to do with..."

Paul cut her off by waving a finger under her nose, catching her attention.

"A werewolf cannot heal rapidly from a wound made by a silver weapon, and must instead rely on a longer heal time, similar to a regular person, or in this case, pony... And let me tell you, those kind of injuries leave a scar..."

Celestia slowly nodded and stepped away, a warm smile on her face, "I see... I thank you for your honesty, now before my sister and I take our leave, is there anything we can do for you?"

"Hmm, well..." Paul glanced down at his towel, the only thing hiding his modesty. "I  could do with some pants at the very least. Oh! And I need to know when you have full moon's here."

Princess Luna, at the mention of the moon, made her way over and gave a quick nod to Paul, "You are lucky Paul Silvermane... Last night was the last full moon of this month, and will be so for another three weeks."

Celestia smiled softly and giggled at the man's request, before shaking her head, "If what I have in mind will work, you will not be needing those pants..."

She gave Paul a wink and made her way over to the mane 6, taking Twilight from the group and taking her aside to talk. Luna moved to stand beside Paul and gave him a small smile of her own as she looked him over, which made the guy slightly uneasy.

"Um... I don't have anything on my face or someplace do I?" He asked nervously, not taking his gaze of the Lunar Princess for a second, soon locking eyes with her as she matched his gaze.

"No... It is just interesting, how similar your people, these, 'humans' resemble pony kind... Except for fur, tails and hooves, your kind is very much the same as we are... Tell me Paul Silvermane... Do you have magic in your world?"

Paul wasn't sure why Luna was asking him questions, as to him, he had already said the most important things, but it decided to humor the Princess of the night.

"We do, but not nearly as much as our ancestor's had. Now, only a select few can actually do any kind of spells with magic, and most people do not even believe in it anymore..."

He gave a shrug and was about to ask Luna why she wanted to know, when a loud, cheerful 'Squee' noise filled the room, causing all heads in the library turn towards an excited looking Twilight Sparkle, who was bouncing up and down on the spot, doing a good impression of Pinkie Pie by most accounts as she did so.

Twilight quickly noticed the silence that had spread over the room and blushed heavily, her lavender furred cheeks going crimson as she gave a sheepish smile.

"Sorry everypony... But Celestia said I could use a spell we have been working on for a long while to help P..."

The young alicorn froze mid-sentence as she noticed the dark glare Paul was shooting her, his blue eyes locked on her, promising a cruel fate if Twilight finished her sentence. The purple princess flinched and hid behind Celestia as Paul let out a low growl.

"Now now Paul... I can personally promise you that this spell will not hurt you... In fact, it will help you greatly in fitting in until we can find a way to send you home..."

Celestia's voice was soothing, like a mother's who was trying to calm a child. She glanced behind her at Twilight, her former student and now fellow princess.

"Twilight... I ask that you be slightly more careful about what you say around our new friend?"

Twilight gave a small nod and then moved her gaze to Paul, who was still frowning, but he had at least dropped the death glare. Twilight took this chance to rush out from behind Celestia and headed down into the still trashed basement, leaving the remaining elements to watch with great curiosity as to what Twilight and Celestia may be planning...

They were slightly disappointed when Twilight (Looking fairly annoyed at the state of her basement) returned with a simple amulet in her hand.

"What's that for Twilight? Is it like a dog collar for fido here?"

Rainbow Dash asked, shooting a smug smirk at Paul, who replied by flipping off the colorful maned mare.

"No Rainbow... Its just a part of the experiment, the next part is the hard part..." Twilight said as she made her way back over to Celestia, who held a hand out to Twilight, letting her place the amulet in her open palm.

Paul finally got a good look at said amulet as Twilight pulled her hand away... He groaned a little bit at the image imprinted onto the steel amulet. It showed the image of an owl in flight, with a background of a full moon.

'Real original Sparkle-ass...' Paul growled in his thoughts, not sure what this lavender pain in the ass and the all powerful Princess of the sun had planned. He ;looked at Luna and shrugged, which she replied to with a shrug of her own, showing she knew nothing of what was going to happen.

All eyes eventually returned to Princess Celestia as she closed her hand around the amulet, and no sooner had she done so, a bright light began to beam through her fingers, making the entire room light up in a dazzling light show, Celestia's horn glowing like a beacon as she poured her magic into some sort of spell...

As quickly as it had begun, the spell was complete and the light show died down, first the glowing of her hand, and then finally her horn loosing its glow. The Princess of the sun gave a soft sigh and smiled, opening her hand and showing the amulet once more...

"Hold on a second, I don't see nothin' different about..."

Applejack tried to say before Pinkie Pie rushed past her in a blur and was standing right infront of the hand Princess Celestia was holding the amulet in, eyeing the item like a puppy waiting for a treat.

"Oooooo! Mr owl has turned into a wolfy!" The pink mare giggled and turned to Paul and pointed at him, a wide grin, "Just like you Pauly Wally!"

Paul groaned loudly at the nickname, but made his way over to Celestia, just as every other mare in the room moved in to get a look at the change, and for whatever was about to happen. Paul nervously raised a hand and moved it shakily to Celestia's outstretched one, hovering over the amulet, doubt in his mind.

"Do not be afraid... Take it, it is for you after all..."

Celestia giggled and reached out with her free hand and took Paul's, turning it so his palm was flat and dropped the amulet into his hand carefully.

"Now put it on and you will see why Twilight and I thought this might be for the best..."

Paul, not really seeing any reason to distrust Celestia, even if he couldn't trust Twilight, shrugged and slowly took the metal chain of the amulet and slipped it over his neck, letting it settle in place over his bare chest.

"Huh... I don't see what you..."

Paul froze, his entire body locking up as his joints and muscles were suddenly assaulted by what felt like liquid fire, his mouth opened in a silent scream of agony as he fell forwards, landing on his hands and knee's as his body was wracked with pain. Fluttershy and Applejack tried to rush to his side but were stopped by a wall of magic, which was hastily set up by both Celestia and Luna, who had not even took their eyes off the man's agonized form...

A low glow began to emit from the amulet as it hung towards the floor from Paul's neck, which slowly flashed once, twice and on the third flash, green flames, akin to those of a changling's flames, shot out from the amulet, along the chain holding it and covered over Paul's body from head to toe.

"Princess... Is he going to be ok? We haven't really... Tested this kind of spell yet and..."

Twilight began to ask, still stood beside Celestia, her eyes full of worry as she stared at the now blazing humanoid form in the center of her library. Celestia did not answer with words, instead, she placed her right hand on Twilight's shoulder and nodded, watching as finally, the green flames died out, leaving the once human-looking werewolf appearing... Different.

"Ow! Fuck fuck ass balls bastard!" Were the first words to leave Paul's mouth as he finally found the breath to speak. his entire body shot thanks to the pain. "Oh god... Why do I feel... Fuzzy?!" He shot to his feet... And faceplanted onto the floorboards...

"Wha..."

Paul glanced down, not feeling his feet anymore, and saw why. Where his feet had once been, there were now hooves, his skin was covered in a thick coat of grey fur which covered his entire body from what he could tell as he sat up, but jumped slightly as he felt himself sit on something...

He found that this 'something' was his tail... Which he flicked several times as he stared at it.

"Ok... Two minutes until I lose it and start making everyponies day wo... No... I am even talking like you all?!" Paul grasped his head in his hands and groaned. "At least get me a bloody mirror so I can see how hideous I look...?"

Paul glanced at the gathered mares, raising a brow as he did so, as all in attendance were staring at him, each with a different reaction. Applejack and Rainbow dash were both looking him over, as if appraising some kind of prize cattle, Pinkie Pie and Rarity were both slack jawed, their eyes roaming over Paul's new form and apparently enjoying what they were seeing and Fluttershy merely blushed and hid behind her mane, using her wings to hide her entire upper body and head from view.

The three Princesses were more restrained with their reactions, with Luna and Celestia both smiling happily at his new appearance, while Twilight, still sporting a blush, gave a sheepish grin as she levitated a mirror over to Paul with her magic, letting him see himself...

"Huh... Not as bad as I thought... I still prefer the hairless me..."

Paul was still the same height, but his body was now that of a earth pony stallion, his entire form covered from mane to hoof in light grey fur, his tail and mane, both quite long for a stallion, were blond in color and he kept his blue eyes. He quickly noticed he was slightly more muscular then before, probably the whole 'stallion' thing he thought. Paul suddenly felt something else that was new to him...

"What the fuck? Where's my dick?!"

He shouted loudly as he dropped his towel, showing where his 'family jewel's' used to be was now replaced with a sheath, but that wasn't the only thing he noticed... As he was panicking, Paul noticed something on his ass, and when he snatched the mirror from Twilight's magical grip and used it to get a closer look, he found it was a cutie mark... The same image of a wolf's head on a full moon background that was on his amulet was imprinted on his rear.

"Ok... I... I need a minute..." Paul said shakily, his body shaking slightly, "You... You turned me into a pony..." He pointed at Celestia and Twilight, his left eye twitching slightly as he did so.

"Yes... But the spell will only last for as long as you wear that amulet..." Celestia spoke slowly, moving towards Paul, her eyes on his as she continued speaking.

"... And I must warn you, if you try and take it off, you will feel the same pain as when you put it on... Now, I am sure the Element of Harmony have something they need to get done..."

Princess Celestia gave Pinkie Pie a wink, which the pink party mare picked up on immediately, and in the blink of an eye Pinkie had whizzed around the main room of the Library and grabbed each of her friend's, before dragging them all out of the door, leaving a very confused looking stallion, two amused alicorn princesses and one tired looking dragon, who just gave a huff and stomped up the stairs to his and Twilight's room and slammed the door.

"Sooooo... Why am I a stallion?"

Paul asked casually after a few moments of silence.

"I think my sister and Princess Sparkle are thinking this way you will not have as much hassle as you would if you were in your 'natural form'." Princess Luna said as she slowly walked around Paul, her eyes gazing over him in a similar way to how Applejack and Rainbow Dash had done, "Although, I must say that your choice of form is quite... Interesting..."

Princess Celestia cleared her throat loudly and moved between both Paul and Luna, a smile on her lips as she hooked her arm through both her sister's left arm and Paul's right arm, linking them together.

"I think Pinkie Pie and her friends will have had enough time by now..."

Celestia looked down at Paul and gave him a playful wink, before her horn began to glow and in a bright flash, the library was empty once more. A similar flash of light appeared outside Sugarcube Corner, Ponyville's most well known bakery, where three individuals now stood... Well, two of them stood, while the third was busy vomiting into a nearby bush.

"Guh... What the fuck..."

Paul grumbled, wiping his mouth clean with the back of his right hand as he looked over at an amused looking Luna and a concerned Celestia, the latter of which was stood over him, gently rubbing his back with her left hand slowly.

"I am sorry Paul... I was unaware how badly you would react to 'winking' with magic, are you ok now?"

"Yeah... Just please warn me next time, the next surprise I get may well just kill me at this rate..."

Paul noticed Celestia look slightly nervous as she steps back, moving to stand next to her sister.

"Head on inside my little pony... Oh! I am sorry, force of habit... But still, go on inside and get something to eat, my sister and I have to return to Canterlot, lest our nephew or some of the nobles try a power play or something equally silly in our absence..."

"Indeed... Not that I wouldn't mind an excuse to banish a few choice ponies..." Luna mumbled under her breath just before both Princesses winked out of sight in a flash of light.

Paul sighed and glanced around where he was, easily noticing the gingerbread house style bakery behind him, a town square across from  said building, with a large, fancy looking fountain in the center of it. Houses and miscellaneous shops lined the street either side of him, splitting of in parts into side streets or alleyways.

"Hmm, I am getting hungry... Hope they have chocolate here..."

Paul pushed open the door to Sugarcube Corner and stepped inside... Darkness, and a lack of ponies, similar to outside.

"Hang on... It can't be later then early afternoon, where is everypony...?"

Paul got his answer when the lights were flicked on and what looked like most of the town jumped out, shouting "SURPRISE!" at the top of their voices. The new stallion of the hour reacted in the way anyone who was so highly stressed would react to such a thing... He clutched his chest as he felt a heart attack coming on...

Seeming to ignore his apparent heart attack, Pinkie Pie bounced over to Paul, not paying attention as several ponies, both mare's and stallions were whispering to each other in worried tones at the very visible discomfort.

"So, were you surprised?! Huh? huh? HUH?!"

With each word Pinkie got closer to Paul, till her nose was pressed against his own, bopping it lightly as she finished talking. Paul finally felt his body recover, offering a small prayer of thanks for his curse's only real benefit, and sighed, finally speaking to the mare currently pressed up against him, destroying his personal space.

"Pinkie... I like you... But I swear to all that's holy, you nearly scared me to death there... And your not paying attention are you?"

Paul shook his head as Pinkie started rattling off about the party, pointing out where the food, games and other such things were in the room, before the party mare bounced off into a crowd of ponies and disappeared.

"Hey fido... I gotta say, you remind me of a male Derpy Hooves... But a stallion, and a earth pony... And your eye's aren't..."

As Rainbow Dash, who had approached Paul from behind began to speak, the door to the bakery burst open, and a very out of breath pegasus mare stood in the doorway, a mail bag slung over one shoulder. Paul stared at the newcomer for a few moments, knowing without a doubt that this was 'Derpy Hooves', who he shared his fur and mane color's with, but what made him stare was her eyes, golden in color, with her right eye seeming normal, but her left eye was looking off in another direction.

"Dude, not cool! Staring is rude!" Rainbow Dash elbowed Paul in the ribs, making him grunt and rub his side.

"Sorry I'm late Rainbow Dash, but I got lost on my mail route through the Everfree... I always seem to get lost looking for that nice Zebra's house..."

Paul felt heat rise in his cheek's as he listened to Derpy and noticed her warm, cheerful smile.

"UM... Hello there, miss Hooves was it?"

Paul walked up to her, ignoring Rainbow Dash entirely, earning him a glare he could feel burning into the back of his head... But he shrugged it off and smiled warmly at Derpy, who matched his smile with her own, holding out her hand to him, which he took happily, shaking her hand.

"Yep! Derpy Hooves at your service! Whats your name?"

The grey mare tilted her head to the side and looked over the stallion before her, noticing that he was actually keeping eye contact with her as best as he could, this act alone letting her know he was a polite sort of colt at least.

"My name... Um..."

Paul realized that  most 'normal' ponies had odd sounding names, or names that worked well with whatever their butt mark's looked like.

"My name is... Silver Mane, and I am new in Ponyville... It's a pleasure to meet you Derpy." Paul pulled the mare's hand up to his lips and kissed the back of it, "I hope to see you around."

He gave the mailmare a wink and quickly retreated to a quieter corner of the bakery and tried to get his mind strait.

"Ok... I just hit on a pony... What the fuck, I don't even..." He groaned and covered his face with his hands, not liking how this place was getting to him. "Not one day here and already I am flirting, acting out of character..."

Paul would of happily continued with his crazy sounding conversation with himself, but a small tap on his left arm made him look down, noticing a young unicorn filly stood next to him, looking up at Paul with a happy grin.

"Thank you for making my mommy smile Mister Silver... Please make her smile again sometime."

With that the young filly rushed off back into the mass of ponies that were still idling around, chatting, partying and genrally having fun, and disappearing.

'Huh... So Derpy's a mother, so she's a Milf? Wait... Or is it a Pilf? Oh god why am I even thinking this?! Damn, I hope Pinkie has alcohol at this thing...' Paul thought to himself as he stalked towards the buffet table, a look of determination on his face...
