Rough Start with new Roommates

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I was the first to get up. By the sounds of snoozing and snoring, the girls were still asleep. I wanted to get on the girls good side after the glare and four out of twelve of the girls not trusting me yesterday. So I decided to make the girls breakfast. I walk into the kitchen, got to the fridge, and grabbed a carton of eggs, some milk, bacon, bread and butter. Since the eggs and bacon needed time over the stove to cook, I slid the toast in the toaster, squeezed some oranges for some orange juice, and lucky enough the eggs and bacon were done. I managed to hear overlapped chatter coming from upstairs signaling me that the crusaders woke up. I saw them walking down the stairs with tired looks on their faces.

"Morning girls." I said with my signature smile

"Good morning." said Sweetie Bell.

"Sweet Apple juice" AppleBloom said excitedly.

"Hey you got any coffee?" Babs asked me.

"Yeah I just gotta turn on the coffee maker. You like it light or dark?"

"Dark. Very dark." She was scowling at me. Must be one of those people...err... ponies who aren't much of morning ponies.

"I'd also like coffee please." said a voice from behind me. Apparently either the Mane six or the Sugar Lumps woke up. I turned around and spotted Rarity and boy did she look a mess. Her eyes bloodshot, a ruffled up mane, and had a face that almost scared me. It scared the crusaders well though.

"God Rarity, you look like you barely got any sleep."

"That's because I didn't. I don't know how the other can put up with Rainbow Dash's snoring." she grunted in annoyance as I handed her the coffee. That was when the other girls walked in and smelled the air. They knew food was out.

"Aw Yeah, breakfast." said Rainbow Dash as she flew over my head.

"Thanks. I fix it." I said hoping to gain the remaining girls trust.

"You fixed it huh?"

"Yeah why, what's the big deal?"

"Just her' makin' sure y'all ain't trying anything." said AppleJack again attitudes still rubbing me up the wrong way.

As the girls sat at the table, Sweetie Bell notice something off about the food they received. She saw something that was thin and red when she looked down. The crusaders soon notice themselves.

"What the hay is this?" asked AppleBloom who obviously never recognized bacon. The other girls also noticed this. FlutterShy to her horror knew exactly what it was. Due to her shock she was silent. I noticed this and wondered what she was so freaked out about. Twilight also noticed and freaked out herself but she wasn't silent about. Later the girls freak out now realizing what it was.

"You're feeding us meat?" she asked.

"Yeah what's the big deal? You girls aren't afraid of it are you?" I said not knowing what's going on but they felt offended by it.

"Are you saying that your a monster?" Pinkie said.

"What? Hell no I'm not that sick. What are you guys so freaked out about?" I knew that this was getting nowhere. that was until an audible sound come from Rainbow Dash. They all turn their head to see her happily eating the bacon.

"Wow! This is better than the stuff I had back when I was with Gilda!"

"Rainbow, wut in tarnation are y'all doin?" AppleJack yelled getting her attention

"I'm eating."

"Have you lost it or something Rainbow?" said Pinkie

"No I haven't"

"Then why are you eating animal eat?" scolded Rarity.

"Hey, he cooked it. And you girls do know I used to be friends with a gryphon."

After the girls go back and forth for a little bit, Sweetie shrieks Scootaloo's name drawing attention to the filly that is also eating the bacon after watching Rainbow enjoy it so much.

"Scootaloo, What are you doing?"

"Duh, I'm eating." she sarcastically stated.

"Hey what's the deal?" I shouted wanting to know why they were acting like this.

"I'd never thought that the one who let us in his house would be some type of cannibal."

"What? Wait a sec..." That was when a thought crossed my mind. These ponies probably never did eat meat, so of course was I said offended them." So where you guys are from, it's pretty much a vegan town.

"Well yes." Diamond tiara finally saying something.

"Then why didn't you say anything about it being a problem earlier?"

"Well we didn't know humans were carnivores." Silver Spoon spoke up.

"Technically we're omnivores. Humans can eat both meat and plants."

"Prove it." Well I knew it was gonna turn to this anyway, so I grabbed a nearby apple and ate it in several bites.

"There, happy?"

"Fine that proves the omnivore thing, but one question still remains; Rainbow how are you able to eat meat without gagging?" Twilight asked causing the girls to turn their attention towards her was Scootaloo.

"Did you girls forget that I was friends with a gryphon already?" she bluntly stated. Apparently this conversation was going back and forth between the girls and it was starting to get on my nerves. I never like seeing cat fight since from what I've heard, I always gets ugly.

"Can we just pretend this never happened, please?" I just wanted this conversation of argument to end, since I was just going to jump back and forth. The girls had to accepted that humans have to kill animals for food like other predators on their home world. Once we finished breakfast, I needed to think of what to do next to entertain them. Then I noticed the clothing they wore and realized that they really didn't have any clothes.

"Maybe we can go out and by some clothes." I said causing the girls to perk up.

"What do you mean darling?" Rarity said since I find her accent cute.

"Well you girls really don't have any other clothes since you got here."

"He's right, and I'd rather not sleep in the same thing everyday." Diamond Tiara stated.

"Oh that reminds me; I believe this is yours." I said as I handed her the tiara that fell on my head yesterday.

"That's where it was."

"Oh that's right. How am I gonna get you girls out to the mall? If people saw you girls they'll either freak out or call the cops."

"Yeah how are we gonna get out there?" Rainbow Dash said causing me to jerk up when she flicked her tail towards my butt.

"Okay. Wait Twilight can you be able to conjure a spell that can turn you girls into humans?" Twilight needed nothing else. With her magic conjured, the girls were illuminated by a bright light that nearly blinded me. When my sight returned I saw the girls in their human forms. Twilight, AppleJack, Rarity, Pinkie, SilverSpoon, Diamond Tiara, Sweetie Bell and Fluttershy's skin was bright, while Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo, AppleBloom and Babs Seed's skin was a tan color. Their hair still retained their natural color despite their horns and winds disappearing.

"Wow I can't believe that actually worked."

"So can we go to this mall already?" Diamond Tiara was impatient, but even though I found that irritating, she seemed cute to me for some reason.

"Sure. It's not that big a walk from here. We'll just take a right to the next street and it will be right there." I said causing the girls to cheer. I'm glad the job I have pays well since I made a lot of money over the past three months. After I got my house key and my wallet, the girls were outside and I locked the front door.

"I just hope today doesn't turn out weird or uncomfortable for me."
