New Beginnings

This morning I had finished my science project. We had been asked to recreate a scientific object in a miniature model. Of course we had been told that they didn’t have to work but we tried to get them too. I had created a particle accelerator and my best friend had made a made a device that slows down light. He didn’t tell me what it was but it seemed powerful. We left them at my house so that we didn’t have to leave them at school an extra day. We arrived as usual and entered our first class, Biology, when I saw a bright flash of light and fell down. I lifted myself up and looked at my friend. He had also pulled himself up.

“Are you two okay?” asked Mr. Danworth

“Ya. I’m fine,” I said.

“Me too,” he said.

“Alright. Get to your seats.”

We sat down in our usual places and turned towards the board. About halfway through class Mr. Danworth decided to have someone go up to the board and answer a question. I tend to wear my hood like hair in a way. It just hangs from my head. Anyway Mr. Danworth called me up to answer the question.

“Of course I’ll do it sir.”

I stood and walked up to the board. As I did Mr. Danworth called out to me.

“Mr. Teles. Please take off the hoodie.”

“What? Oh yeah.”

I pulled off the hoodie and there was a loud gasp from everyone. I stopped.

“What’s the matter?” I asked.

That’s when my friend ran up to me.

“Excuse us for a moment,” my friend said.

He dragged me out of class and into the bathroom.

“What’s going on?” I asked.

“Check the mirror.”

“What do you me-” I stopped and gapped at my reflection.

For those of you who haven’t guessed what’s happening I’ll tell you. My human ears were gone and towards the top of my head was pony ears. Not just any ears either. These ears were pony ears of a sky-blue color. And these weren’t like your usual equine ears. They were the ears of a pony from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

“How the hell?” I gasped.

“I don’t know dude.”

“Wait. Check your head. I can’t be the only one. I know it,” I said.

He proceeded to push his bushy hair out the way and gasped. His ears were a lime green color.

“What’s going on?” he said.

“I don’t know but we need to get home.” I said.

“Alright let’s go.”

“Wait. You don’t think they’ll let us go that easily do you?”

“We have weirdly colored pony ears on our heads.”

“Valid point.”

We poked our heads out the bathroom door and raced out towards the front door when *wham* a girl ran into me.

“Oh! Sorry but I-” she stopped as she saw my ears. She dropped into my lap crying.

“What’s the matter?” I asked.

“I’m not the only one. I’m not the only one.” She repeated.

I turned my eyes to her head. She had light purple ears on her head. Similar in shape to mine but less pointed and whole unlike Andy.

“Um Len?”

“What?” I responded.

“We might wanna bring her with.”

“Why?”

“She has the same issue as us and might know what caused it.”

“Alright.”

I lifted her up and we ran out to Andy’s car. Andy happens to have gotten his license a couple of months ago. I placed the girl in the back seat and climbed into the passenger side. Andy jumped in and started the car.

“Go to my place. My parents said they were leaving for a week or two to go see my grandparents.”

“Got it.”

He turned onto the road leading to my house and turned into my driveway. I got out and picked up the girl and went inside.

“What’s going on?” asked Andy.

“I have no idea.”

“We need to figure-” he stopped.

“What?”

He pointed at our science experiments. They worked hooked together and attached to a computer that was loading an mlp episode.

“Oh. Buck. No. SAM! GET OUT HERE NOW!”

“I CAN”T. I’M THE BATHROOM!” he yelled back.

“OH YEAH? WHAT COLOR ARE YOUR EARS?” I yelled.

He walked out of the bathroom and came to the living room and looked at me.

“Green.”

“Mine are light blue.”

“Oh…”

“What did you do?”

“My computer charger vanished so I tried connected that thing but it wasn’t enough so I connected the other thing and it turned on.”

“You. Are. A. Freaking. Idiot.”

“Why?”

“This is your fault.”

“What?”

I explained to him what he had done. In the meantime Andy grabbed some chips and dip. After I finished Sam turned a ghostly white. He sat down, stunned. The girl groaned. I walked to the other side of the couch.

“Ugh. Where am I?” she asked.

“Welcome back to the world of the living,” I said.

“What? Where am I?”

“At my house.”

“Why?”

“You fainted.”

“Oh.”

She sat up and asked for water. Andy grabbed it while I explained to her what we knew had caused it.

“So there’s no way to reverse it?”

“Nope.”

“We need more people to help,” said Andy.

“I got it,” I went over to my computer and got on all the MLP FiM sites I knew of letting everyone know what was happening and I asked them all to gather in Chicago due to it being the closest large well-known city. I turned back to everyone.

“So who wants to go to Chicago?”

“Why Chicago?” asked Andy.

“It’s well known and easy to get too.”

“Oh…”

“Everyone into the car.”

They all headed out while Andy and I grabbed the stuff we would need for Chicago.. We headed out within the hour. I sat in the passenger seat. Andy drove and the girl, her name was Alex, and Sam sat in the back seat. Andy started the car up and we headed out.

Meanwhile~

Luna galloped into the hall and ran up to Celestia.

"Sister did you feel it?"

"Yes."

"What does it mean?"

"Our world is going to change. For better or worse I don't know yet."

Not much content yet but ya know.
Anyways I hope you guys enjoyed the First OC Tale.

Chapter undergoing rewrite.

The Darkest Doom

Deep in the cavernous pit called Tartarus and ancient evil cackled mightly.

"AH HA HA!" his laugh echoed, silencing the other denziens of the depths. "Foolish ponies! I've found something to help me! Something that will set me free and you will never be the wiser."

Far, far above, a celestial being, neither Celestia nor Luna, heard the laugh and he knew what must be done. The world warped and he brought forth events that would free him, in due time. Strangely, the events coalesced quicker than he expected.

“Come on class, we’ve got a lot to see!” called a teacher. “Now this is another interesting exhibit, much like the one in the garden. Here we have the avatar of death, Thanatos, who was imprisoned millennia ago so no one else would open his gateway to Tartarus.”

Hey Discord, mind releasing me when you're done? I need to watch the gates. Who knows what got through, a deep masculine voice spoke to Discord's mind.

Of course, was the response. Like all the statues, Thanatos was imprisoned long ago. There are a multitude in the Canterlot castle and one in the ruins of the old castle. They can talk to each freely, and never seem to get bored.

List of the Statues
The Good
Avatar of suffering, Strife.
Avatar of darkness, Midnight.
Avatar of lies, Loki.
Avatar of cold, Brynth.
Avatar of gluttony, Girth.
Avatar of lust, Smexy. (Chose the name herself)
Avatar of sloth, Sloth.
Avatar of wrath, Fire.
Avatar of pride, Lord.
Avatar of envy, Eliza.
Avatar of chaos, Discord
Avatar of ???, ???. (Ruins)

The Bad
Avatar of love, Eros.
Avatar of light, Hemera.
Avatar of health, Cadecus.
Avatar of life, Vida.
Avatar of wind, Anmeos
Avatar of creativity, New.
Avatar of ???, ???.

Please note, list incomplete

Discord watched as three fillies towards the front began to argue about what he was the avatar of. After being scorned by the teachers they left and he felt himself be freed. As he flew up he released Thanatos and was releasing the others when they disappeared from the gardens.

"He figured it out. Clever boy," Discord flew off towards castle to begin his plan.

"Tartarus is a dark dismal place. Filled with bats, worms, and an odd smell of ice cream. It is not a location one would describe as comfortable. Most troubling of all are the hidden, quiet whispers of entities trapped there. One can wander there for mere days and find themselves caught in the web of Arachne and moments later in the fiery heart of the land itself. It is impossible to map the land due underlying magic conflux. Never will you find the same place again for it always shifts and moves.

Rumors speak of an entity who lives in the heart of Tartarus herself. This being was imprisoned there after Tartarus sacrificed herself to keep the darkest evils from the world. Such rumors may not be true, but from what I heard, it is real,"

From Starswirl the Bearded's Stis Apagorev̱méni̱ Kti̱matologíou, thirteenth chapter, Tartarus, The Land of Fire and Darkness.

Author's Note

Stis Apagorev̱méni̱ Kti̱matologíou means, On The Forbidden Lands, in greek.
Short chapter, I know, but I needed to release some fillers, and it felt good to throw in a new plot twist.

The Convention

The convention center was PACKED. We had speakers connected everywhere. Really, setting this up had taken awhile as well as getting used to being in a female body.

I tapped the mic, getting everyone's attention with the squeal. "Um, hello?" Everyone looked at me. I coughed, "Alright. Now, as we all know, we are turning into our OCs due to, ahem, our science projects."

A couple nodded grimly, meanwhile someone else called, "What do you mean 'our', you're not the guy from the blog."

"Yeah. Despite my OC's gender, I seem to have become female. As I was saying, we're still not sure exactly what caused it, but I believe our best bet is to wait until its passed. As for-" I was cut off by a strange popping noise.

"Hello?" Came the voice of John De Lancie out of a pink mess.

I gaped, "DISCORD?!"

"In the pink! Now, Miss Time, I've found out what's doing this and its irreversible. The thing that is powering it is the most evil creature in Tartarus. He plans to convince all of you lot to help him but I got here first," he said, looking at me.

"So, it wasn't our devices?" I asked.

"Not entirely, that gave him an opening into this world, Miss Time," he said.

"Miss Time?" I questioned.

"Ah. Basically, that's you. She-Who-Walks-Through-Time," he shrugged.

I frowned, "Now, who's the 'him' you keep mentioning?"

"Don't know, his name isn't anywhere at all," Discord shrugged, his hair tuft bouncing. Again. "Now, off I pop! See you in Equestria!"

The draconequus vanished. I groaned, "That's help-" I stopped. Here I was, in the middle of the Everfree forest. Upon realizing where I was, I turned to try and see ponyville only to encounter Timber wolves. After which I promptly began galloping, apparently I'm now a horse, great, and screaming.

"NOPE! NOPE! NOPE!" I went flying away, literally, only find myself plunging downwards towards what looked like Ponyville.

"THE PLOT LINE IS MOVING TOO FAST," came a voice from a pink blurr.

I kept screaming, and screaming. At this point a rainbow blur was rushing at me.

"I'M GONNA DIE! DEAR GODDESS, SAVE ME!" The blurr came closer rapidly and suddenly, I crashed through a cloud and right into a very shocked draconequus.

"Goodness!" a yellow and pink fuzz said, "Is she alright?"

"I think so my dear Fluttershy," the weird other fuzz said.

"WEREF AM IFFF?" I tried asking, but at which point I passed out.

One second, my friend was standing on stage talking, the next, poof, literally gone. She left no trace whatsoever. I quickly ran up onto the stage. People were shocked, some frozen, some fainted, some confused. "Where'd she go?"

"Sorry about that, if you'll all exit the building, we'll try to find Ms. Teles," the hoard stampeded slowly out the doors and I leaned over to a security guard, "Nowhere she could have gone huh?"

He nodded in agreement after raising a curious eyebrow.

"Then we have to assume she went to the only place that seems remotely logical," I said, looking at the map of Equestria someone had hung up.

"Who knows where she landed..."

Upon awakening I found myself in a somewhat recognizable location. I was in Ponyville hospital. In front of me were six ponies I recognized well. The Mane Six. Six extremely famous ponies, here to visit me. Not for a well wishing I suppose.

"Um, are you okay miss?" Fluttershy asked gently.

"Aside from a slight headache? Yes," I put a hoof to my head and rubbed my temple. "I would kill for some aspirin though..."

"Aspirin?" Twilight asked, looking rather intrigued, "What's that?"

"Its a pain relief medication on the planet of Earth," I said, matter-of-factly.

"Earth?" Rarity inquired.

"Its were the humans come from, silly! Lyra told me all about it!" Pinkie said.

"Lyra was right, Pinks," I grinned.

"Lyra has merely an obsession with a non-existent mythological race, Pinkie, this mare in front of us couldn't be one of those creatures," Twilight sighed, "You're one of the human-obsessed aren't you? I've proven that this alleged city, 'Atlantis' that they read about from other ancients couldn't exist. There's no scientific proof of humans."

I smiled and looked around at my backpack, "Hand me that bag over there Pinkie."

"Okie doki loki!" She hoofed it to me.

"Thank you," I began digging through the bag for the pictures I had with me.

"Hand? What a strange manner of speaking, pray tell dear, what country are you from?" Rarity said.

"America. Ask questions in a moment," I mumbled through the bag. The scene must have looked quite comical. A pony with her head and hooves in a backpack. "Eureka!" I called, pulling out my photo album. "Here Twilight. See if this is proof enough for you." A smirk came to my face as she opened the book.

After we managed to calm the masses, I began to explain to them my theory of where Len went. The reactions varied from skepticism, hatred, and jealously to joy, laughter, and wonder. Many of them seemed to be asking if they were next. "Okay, now that that's done, I'd like all of you to keep track of your friends and family and report if they disappear, alright?"

Murmurs of consent echoed through the many halls. I climbed down the steps and popped my arm. This was going to be a very long, complicated issue.

Author's Note

This is going to involve a timeskip of a few hours.
Sorry about the update delay.
Horizontal lines mean switching between Len and Andy.

New World and a Filly?

I looked at the mares before me who seemed rather shocked. Twilight in particular seemed to be having a panic attack.

“The painting and the mirror, you mean to tell me those pictures are REAL PONIES?” the lavender unicorn was near hyperventilating.

“Yes,” I answered, one eye closed, as the unicorn fainted. “Anymore questions?”

“I… not-” Rainbow Dash was cut off by the sound of a Lunar Princess appearing.

“You are Len Teles, correct?” Luna asked.

“Yes. You’re here about my dream while I was out, aren’t you?” I asked rather smugly.

“Indeed. While Celestia does not have the time at the moment, we do. We got your message and checked for other ponies like yourself and I only found one small filly, who is asleep at Twilight’s,” She said.

I nodded, “Good. If you don’t mind, keep doing that every night. I’ll go get the filly now.” I pulled myself out of the bed and galloped out the door to Twilight’s. As soon as I got there I opened the door to see a small filly in front of me.

She was tomato red, and had her green mane tied into a pair of pigtails. A cute little horn was poking from between her bangs as the little filly was busy staring intently at the room around her. Her neon yellow eyes not noticing me at the doorway, she looked like pure awe and surprise had a hold of her. A corgi of all things was also in the room, sleeping next to a large backpack next to the newcomer. “So.... am I dreaming or is this all real?” A beat passed before she shrugged. “Eh, considering I’m adorable, it’s probably real. That, or I had way too much sugar last night and this is all one giant fever dream.”

"It's real, " I muttered, a little concerned.

The filly jumped up into the air and spun around, striking a karate pose. “GAH! WHO WAS AT THAT?” The moment she noticed me, she froze and started blushing. “Um..... You saw nothing.”

I raised an eyebrow and saw a chance to tease her. "Well, well, little girl. Got a crush on Spike?"

“You saw nothing!” The filly shook a hoof in the air as she made her declaration, only to pause and point at me in confusion. “By the way, who are you?”

"Len Teles," I said.

The look on her face moved to a blank slate before she seemed to nod her head as if she was impressed. “Hmm. Straight to the point. Kinda reminds me of Alice...” The filly grinned and offered a hoof. “I’m Emi! Nice ta meet ya!” The corgi barked and ran up to her before rolling over and looking up at me with what could possibly be the derpiest face it could. “And this is Cricket!”

“Bark!”

"Nice. Glad to see another human, even one so small," I smirked.

Emi gasped a bit and grinned. “I knew it. People are getting sent here!” She looked around and started to bounce in place. “Did you see a pegasus around here by any chance? He’s got gold fur, Sprite themed mane, probably having a panic attack...?”

"No. I had Luna check, it's just us two," Len shook his hair.

She deflated a bit and looked worried. “Really? I mean, he was literally right next to me when that nasty bubble of hullabaloo popped up.”

"I think Discord did that. I'm not sure he brought me though," I muttered.

“Oh....” Emi sank a bit before she shook her head. “Well then, I’ll just have to wait till he shows up.” She waited a full five seconds before flopping over onto her side. “What am I going to do now?”

“Luna’s offered to get a house in Ponyville for me, you can stay there until your family shows up,” I told her, “And while we wait, you can help me prepare for arrivals later on.”

The little filly perked up and gave me a salute. “Yes ma’m!” Her dog was barking a bit as he sat down next to her.

My eye twitched, the ma’am bit would take getting used to, “Alright, come on. Let’s go see Luna then.”

Emi giggled to herself as she practically skipped behind me with her dog close behind. I guess no matter what universe it is, people get all giddy about meeting royals. Especially Pony Princesses.

It had taken a bit but we finally found our way to the hospital. “In hindsight, that should have taken less time.”

Emi was panting a bit just a step behind me. “No kidding.” She looked over her shoulder at the street behind us. “Just how big is Ponyville?” She paused for a moment before thinking. “Come to think of it, if Ponyville’s this big, how does Pinkie know everypony in town? That’s gotta be like.... a feat of mental strength.”

“Respect to Pinkie,” I said, nodding as she in fact, hopped by.

Emi froze for a moment and stared at the pink pony. "Ohmygoshit'sPinkie."

I gave a small smirk, “Wanna meet them all? Who’s your favorite?”

In an instant, she'd blurred her way over to Pinkie and was beaming. "Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!" She then shocked most of the ponies nearby as she bowed to her hard enough to slam her head into the ground. “Teach me your ways oh great and powerful pink one!”

I raised an eyebrow, “Somehow, this feels very very foreboding…”

Pinkie jumped up and down, pulled out some balloons and a sign that said New Apprentice. “Of course I will Emi!”

Looking around, I think half the town fainted on the spot. Emi was squealing as she bounced around Pinkie. “Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!”

I noticed Twilight as she walked over and called out, “Ha! Emi’s pulling a Twilight!” I snickered as Twilight blushed profusely.

Emi stopped mid bounce and pokerfaced with her own blush. “Um.... you saw nothing?”

I rolled my eyes, “Whatever. We need to get serious. Twilight, Emi. Emi, Twilight. Twilight, is Luna still here?”

Twilight gave both of us a brief nod. “Yes, she’s in the hospital lounge right now.” Her gaze moved to Emi and her corgi. “Though, I think it’d be best if somepony went over to the library and apologized to Spike.”

Emi blinked in confusion for a moment. “Huh?”

Twilight pointed at her pet. “This little guy made a few accidents in the basement.”

The little filly’s ears fell a bit. “Oh.... I’m sorry, Cricket’s normally better than that.” She looked over at the hospital for a moment and then back to Twilight. “Can I at least see Luna first?”

“I suppose,” Twilight’s eyes twinkled.

Emi perked back up and headed inside with bounce and giggle. No really. She bounced.

“She’s learning!” Pinkie yelled.

I rolled my eyes and followed.

One Week Later...

Unlike most people, Len had taken to preparing for the arrival of others instantly. He had already gotten funding from Luna and Celestia to start an organization that would work on acclimating humans to the Equestrian world, and as such, he had already been prepared that morning when Luna arrived.

"It appears that, over night, we've had several arrivals," the lunar diarch said as she came into the room where Len was looking at a rather large map of Equestria and her surrounding nations.

"I'm not surprised, everyone but me and Emi seemed to still need time for their forms to take hold," she said, tracing the borders of Equestria with her hoof, "You have where they are?"

"Yes," she said, using her magic to pick up five pins and place them across the map in a different country or area. "I believe we can contact Cadence and she'll take care of arrivals to the Crystal Empire, but the others... I'm afraid we'll just have to send someone to let them know, or they'll have to figure it out themselves."

Len sighed, lowering her head, "Five pins, five new groups of ponies. It's going to be a long couple months, isn't it Luna?/"

"Indeed it is," she said, "Indeed it is."

Neighpon

Sam had had a terrible week. Andy and Alex had been forcing him to be the one to explain, to every group after Len's, what had happened and why. Basically, he was the scapegoat for thousands, possibly, millions of people. And now, here he was, in front of some Japanese rip-off ponies.

Did we mention the swords?

"Nani o, watashitachi no kōtei no shinshitsu de wakai taneuma o shite imashita ka?" A stallion standing next to the man, an emperor, asked.

Sam struggled to remember ANY Japanese before the exact words he needed came to him, "Watashi wa watashi ga anata no gengo o hanasu koto wa arimasen kowaidesu."

The man listened for a second before his horn glowed and Sam could hear what he was saying, in English. "I asked you what you were doing in the bedroom of the emperor."

"I do not know, one minute, I was laying in bed, the next you were pointing samurai swords at me," Sam said, eyeing the swords that were STILL pointed at him.

"Very well," the stallion answered. Sam stopped as the swords were resheathed and looked up at them confused.

"You believe me?" he asked, astonished.

"Here in Neighpon, our spells are based on truth. If you say such things while our spells are upon you, we will believe," the stallion answered.

Sam nodded, finding it somewhat sensible. If truth was what they valued, then they may believe his story. "I am not from your world, either. Where I come from, two-legged hairless apes rule, and I was one of them." He waited for the laughter, closing his eyes, only for it to never come. When he opened his eyes once more, the emperor and stallion were simply nodding in return.

"Such things make sense, we believe, here in this house, that there are far more worlds than our one. Just look up into the night sky," the emperor said, gesturing skyward with a hoof.

Sam gave a relived sigh, before suddenly finding a sword at his throat, and, as he glimpsed around, nearly everyone else's throat. They were all silent as a new stallion entered the room. He brandished a long, white blade. "Emperor, it seems your distraction with this stallion has allowed me to win, once and for all."

"You will not win, De~yuaruhowaito," the emperor said, "The people chose me. They will never choose a murderer who killed his emperor."

"They will if I make them!" De~yuaruhowaito spat, "You are stupid, ponies electing their ruler, ponies are herd creatures, they must be led by force!" The raging white stallion said, before his sword came down, arcing towards the emperor's exposed neck.

*CLANG* The sword bounced off the sword in Sam's mouth. "You okay sir?" He asked through the handle.

Sam's bravery stunned himself, not sure how he had gotten the sword off his neck and into his mouth. "I am fine, my young friend. You bring me honor by saving my life."

*CLANG* "No time to talk," Sam said, as the emperor's soldiers escaped and each began dualing one of the enemy.

Beyond the Ley Lines...

Andy's week had not been much better, like many others, he, Sam, and Alex, had chosen to stay in Chicago until whatever was happening, happened. Of course, he hadn't expected to end up here. A huge forest, nothing to be found for miles in any direction, except for the large stone castle he had woke up in.

"This is just fantastic," he muttered. "I'm the one who ends up in some foreign deserted part of Equus!" He kicked a rock, "Just lovely."

Not only that, but it was already getting dark, and he could hear strange howls coming from the forest beyond the clearing.

"And now, I'm going to be hunted by who knows what! This day just keeps better and better," he called out sarcastically before a large owl flitted down in front of him.

"Hello," Andy said, "Who are you?" He realized he was asking an owl these questions, but who else could he ask?

"I am the Book Keeper," came a reply as Andy's brain took a few moments to realize that it was an owl who had spoken.

"... I... I wasn't expecting an ACTUAL reply," Andy stuttered, gaping at the owl.

"Yes, many creatures that are out here can speak," the Owl said, flapping its wings again, "However, you are the first to have arrived here since my great-great-great-great-great-great-great, and many more greats, grandfather spoke to the first intelligent ponies."

"Really," Andy answered, his brain still somewhat failing.

"Yes, indeed. And, since you are the first in so long, you shall come with me to learn the secrets which I have kept in this castle for so long," the owl said, lifting up and gliding towards a large wooden door.

Andy's brain finally kicked started itself and he accepted the odd fact about talking owls, before following quickly to the door as the owl pulled a chain and the door opened to a massive library. He stepped inside as the owl flew up and grabbed a book, "This is the book that tells of most ancient pasts, I will teach to read it and you will bring its prophecies and warnings back to the pony-people."

Andy opened his mouth and closed it a couple times before successfully speaking, "But I've only just become a pony."

The owl bobbed his head, "That is what these prophecies speak off." The owl said, before flying off and bringing another book. "And it is time to teach you, human-pony, to read these words, so I may send you to warn the pony-people of what dangers they will be facing in the dark times that are coming, and what they must do."

Stellar Circuit

An OC Tale

Chapter 2

After we left the house I watched the window as we traveled. It was then I realized I'd have to call ahead just to get somewhere for all of us to meet. Which meant I would have to try to use phone with my slowly shrinking fingers, yay. I pulled my phone out my jacket and proceeded to look up a places in Chicago that could hold large crowds. One thing I will say, Thank Celestia for donations. After leaving we stopped at a café and set up a site for donations. This had, within four hours, yielded over 500 dollars. That combined with my savings and Andy's we had enough for a auditorium.

The girl we had picked had fallen back asleep just a few minutes ago. I looked back and suddenly felt my shirt tighten. I looked down and I- WHAT IN CELESTIA? Oh dear lord. My OCs a guy you've got to be kidding me! Of all the people and the world I had to be the one unknowingly full on slapped by the 63 stick. Yes. I now had two fleshy mounds, the feeling kind of reminded me of jello... AGH what am I thinking. I need new clothes now. Great. Just perfect.

"Hey Andy," Oh great my voice is different too, "Can we stop by Wal-Mart?"

"Ya, but what's up with your-," he stopped, "What the hell?"

"Tell me about it," I said.

The next few moments were filled with silence and a very awkward eye shifting. Andy looked away and pulled us into the Wal-Mart parking lot. Clambering out was incredibly awkward. Leaving Sam, Andy, and the girl, I headed into Wal-Mart.

"Welcome to Wal-Mart, how are you-" The guy just stopped. I could feel him ogling me.

"Thanks. Where's the clothing section?" I asked.

"Um... T-towards the back." Nodding I headed that way.

As I did I heard the greeter turn to the cart guy, "Good lord, they don't make them like that around here."

I shuddered. If only he knew...

I arrived at the Clothing section and began looking through the, ahem, different apparels. I had no idea what any of the sizes or anything were, so, yippee, I had to ask the woman by the dressing rooms.

"Oh well there's..." She trailed off.

I ended up with like two pairs total. She led me over to the regular clothes. Checking my size, I grabbed suitable clothes. Mainly 2 of everything again. Entering the dressing room I started changing.

I need not go into detail. Everything fit properly.

Practically sprinting out, I bought everything and jumped into the car.

Andy's POV

One minute, you're sitting there with your best friend on your way to Chicago, the next?

Your friend has turned into a rather attractive girl.

Great.

"Hey Andy, Can we stop by Wal-Mart?" asked Len.

"Ya, but what's up with your-," I stopped and gaped, "What the hell?"

"Tell me about it," she said.

My friend was now a 5'4" girl. Shoulder length black hair with a blonde stripe, purple eyes, and a childish face.

All-in-all? She was freaking adorable. Especially with the pouting face.

Daw, is the little- GODS DANG IT!

I stopped the on-going war in my mind and pulled us into Wal-mart. Len jumped out and ran into the store. I looked back and found Sam and the other girl passed out. Groaning I leaned back in my seat. Why? Why me?

A few minutes later Len jumped back into the car. "Go. Just go," she said. I put us into drive and off we went.

Len's POV

Never again. I'm not doing that again as a girl. I will send in the other girl. Which reminds me... I looked back and she was sitting up talking to Sam, who seemed intrigued by what she was saying. I turned around to Andy to find him extremely focused on the road. Oh yay. Nothing to do. I pulled out my headphones and decided to take a nap.

12 hours later (Dang Len, what did you do? Run a marathon?)

I opened my eyes to find us parked in front of some auditorium, with the girl shaking me awake.

"Come on! We need to see if they're available and you've got the money," she said.

"Right," I said yawning. I sat up and climbed out of the car and followed her into the auditorium.

"Good afternoon," came a cheery voice, "how can I help you?"

"What? Oh right. We need the auditorium for a few days," I said nervously.

"Of course! What's the event?" She asked.

I gestured to the girl and she showed the woman her ears and tail. Wait, tail? DO I have a tail? I checked. Nope all good to go. The woman nodded, "Oh yes. I've heard about this. I assume you are the ones holding the conference for this?" She asked politely.

"Um, yes," I said, still nervous. I don't like talking to people I don't know. She nodded and cleared her throat.

"No worries then. Mr. Daven has agreed to let you use his auditorium. It seems his son is having a similar problem to yours," she explained. I nodded to the woman.

The woman continued to mention that Mr. Daven would be willing to let us stay at his guest house until enough people arrived. Happily I told her we accepted, and she picked up a phone.

"Mr. Daven? Yes. They've agreed. I know sir. Thank you sir," she hung up the phone, "Mr. Daven has arranged transport to his home. It will be here in an hour."

We all thanked her and made our way out to the cafe across the street. It was a nice little place. Small but cozy and warm. I pulled out my computer and connected to their Wifi and found the site we had started up had been populated rather quickly and people were making accounts left and right.

Its going to be an interesting day.
