Chapter Four: Read A Book!

After I got up from my laughing fit, I proceeded down to the town Library, which was a very large house built inside of a tree. I wanted to see what kind of material these ponies read, and figured I should get to know a little history and anatomy so I don’t run into any trouble like I had before. Still not entirely used to my new body, I trotted the best I could over to the local library. I knocked on the door and was greeted by a small little purple dragon “Yes?” he asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Um, hi. I was led to believe that this is where the local library is.” I told him.

“OOOoooh! But I just finished reorganizing the books alpha…well, never mind. Yes, come on it.” He said, dryly. Trying to make small talk, I asked him if he owned this library, to which he replied that a purple pony by the name of Twilight Sparkle actually owned it. I inquired if she would mind if I used that, and his only response was taking out a piece of paper, scribbling something on it, then breathing fire on it. Thinking it as odd, I helped myself to the volumes upon volumes of books located here. I pulled out Equestrian History, Nightmare Moon: A Detailed History, and a book that looked like the Kama Sutra for ponies. I hid the third book between the other two; I didn't really feel like getting to be known as the “creepy pony who checks out sex books” for a first impression. I checked them out, and trotted on back to the bakery.

When I entered, I greeted the pink pony with a smile. I asked her “So, uh, I don’t think I ever quite got to know your name.” She replied, slower now, that it was Pinkie Pie and began to hop around the store, saying how excited she was to have another friend. I nodded to her and began my ascent. She called my name when I reached the top and I turned around, just to see a cupcake flying towards my face. With quick reflexes, I managed to catch it. “Whao, Pinkie Pie, dis shtuff is really good!” I said, my mouth full. “Tanks!” she smiled and said.

“Thanks! But just call me Pinkie! All my other friends do!” and she then bounded back to her place at the register, awaiting for customers. Once I got into my room, I made sure to lock the door. The first book I was going to read was the Pony Ana- “Oh go…Celestia damn it! Or whatever the hell they say here!” I grabbed the wrong book. Uninterested, I flipped through a few pages, only to see that this book did indeed cover sexual positions. I finally got to a page where the position was known as “Top-Down”. The male would get on top of the female and…Ah. I realized that’s why Rainbow Dash was so embarrassed. I flipped through the other pages and noted that each stance would've looked like a very casual position in terms of being in public, excluding the obvious “Pony-Style” which looked equivalent to how some mammals breed on Earth.

Had I not known this were actual positions, I probably would've been registered for a sex offender, or something bad.

I swapped books and cracked open Nightmare Moon: A Detailed History. The book basically covered Princess Luna’s descent into madness and her eventual transformation into Nightmare Moon, the antagonist seen in the first two episodes. I began reading my final book, which also happened to be very old and weathered, Equestrian History. This book covered things that happened over five thousand years ago, including some snake-like creature whose name was mysteriously etched out, and a rather evil looking pony known as King Sombra. Satisfied that I now knew a little more about this world, Equestria, I went to sleep.
