Paul Bass: Loser Extraordinaire
Chapter two- where is my Babelfish?
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Pretty pegasus pony..."
As Paul lay on the ground Unconscious the two ponies standing next to him shared quite different looks. The purple unicorn stood there with a worried and kind of perplexed look as to why the new being just said such a random sentence the cyan pegasus was just standing there with an open mouth and a blush trying to figure out why a strange creature just called her pretty. The being looked about 5 foot 10 in height from his hind legs to his head, He had a short but spiky black mane but no tail. He looked almost like a hairless ape but with a little bit of hair on his flat white muzzle but overall looked kind of handsome
Did I just think that? Rainbow dash thought to herself. But not too long later the two mare's musings were interrupted by the doctor coming over.
"Twilight, What's the meaning of this?" He asked the purple unicorn who in turn turned to face him and replied
"I found this being in the street after I was on my way home and he was injured so I brought him here for you to look at."
"Hm... Nurse help me get this thing to room 42." The doctor then turned to Twilight and gestured to Rainbow Dash "And your friend too?"
"Oh no, no not her he just said something that confused her is all, give her a minute."
"He's coming to." I heard when I started move around in my bed. Wait a minute I wasn't in bed and if I were I wouldn't be in company that say that when I wake up right? Then the realization hit me like a brick strapped to a hammer what had happened recently, that I had been attacked by my bully. so my eyes shoot open and I sit up like a rocket only then knowing why I was lying down in the first place and flopping back down.
"HEY!"
"GAH!" I call in response to the cyan pegasus now standing on my legs in front of me,
"Why did you call me pretty earlier? Were you hitting on me?" not knowing what was going on I did the only logical thing Déjà Vu and locked up. "Answer me!" she shouts in my face, a blush ever present on her face the whole time. It was then that I answered with a stupid comeback,
"Why did you want me to be?"
SLAP!
"Ow..." I say as I rub the spot on my face where she hit me with quite some gusto [judging by how hard it was] then she stormed off leaving me alone with the purple unicorn from earlier with a look of shock and amusement on her face [don't ask how she just did.]
"Wow... I had expected Rainbow to do much worse too you for saying that." She said before extending her han-hoof "My name's Twilight Sparkle and you have already met Rainbow Dash."
"Uh... Hi?" I respond hesitantly so would you if you woke up to a cyan pegasus asking if you were hitting on it then it slapping you in the face "My name's Paul... Paul Bass" I continue shaking her hoof. "Where am I?"
"You're in ponyville. Oh, here are my friends?" She says as a few other ponies walk in, another pegasus this one a buttery yellow with a pink mane and tail and three butterflies asstoo [what I'm going to call the ass tattoos], a white unicorn with a purple mane and tail with three gems as an asstoo, a completely pink pony who didn't walk in but bounced with three balloons as a asstoo, and a orange pony with a blond tail and mane wearing a Stetson with three apples as an asstoo. The latter two both without wings or horns. Twilight then decided to introduce us
"Everypony this is Paul Bass, Paul this is Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie {Fits doesn't it} and Applejack." The realization then hit Twilight. "Girls what're you doing here?"
Applejack answered with a horribly stereotypical southern accent "We came 'ere t' find you cuz we're supposed to be at th' picnic?" It was then Rarity noticed my condition
"You look absolutely HORRIBLE darling what happened?"
"I was beat up for being different to my class as well as having no friends to help me, nothing new." That must've hit a nerve with Fluttershy because she cringed when I said that
"What! you are going to need a massive cheer me up party! I'll go set it up!" said Pinkie [look at me saying their names like second nature]
"Wait what?" I say before she zooms off with speed rivalling a slow version of the Flash. "Hey Twilight. Am I dead?"
"What! Why on Equis would you think that for?" she replied quite shocked
"Because everybody here is so nice and there are talking ponies."
"Don't you mean everypony?" Pinkie pie says as she is suddenly in the room. [No seriously she wasn't here now she is how on earth, or 'Equis' did she do that?] "Easy, Pinkie physics! It's not hard when you know how silly."
"What?" I say surprised looking at Twilight and her friends who just simply look at me and shake their heads
"Anyway! I have your party all set up." Pinkie says before taking a massive breath "I have done..: Streamers-cupcakes-I-hope-you-like-cupcakes-never-mind-everypony-likes-cupcakes-anyway-I-have-baked-a-cake-for-you-as-well-I-hope-you-like-chocolate-silly-me-everypony-loves-chocolate-and-there-are-presents-and-since-I-have-never-seen-your-species-before-I-know-you-aren't-from-here-Earth-probably-I-have-gathered-everypony-in-town-for-you-to-make-friends-with-even-Dashie-will-be-there-hopefully-you-two-can-get-along-maybe-the-author-will-ship-you-both-or-maybe-with-Luna-or-Twilight-but-that's-not-important-what-is-important-is..."
She just carries on from there but I stopped listening to her insane babble. Instead I take a look around and notice I'm in a hospital if the beeping machines for you to get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected and Selected were anything to judge by, I also was in a makeshift hospital bed and by makeshift I literally mean a few cushions on the floor against the wall with me propped up against them with a mattress and a few more cushions to make up the gap at the end with a sheet and a couple of blankets, a second one to make up for my height considering I seemed to be longer than the ponies here were and the fact that I stand on hind legs not all fours that makes them about a meter off the ground considering I am about 5 foot 10. A nurse walked in to inform the other ponies in the room that visiting hours were over. Well before she saw me and froze, considering I am technically an alien [or am dead and this is heaven or hell] a pretty natural reaction, not like these crazies next to me Hah yeah they're crazy
"...So-all-in-all-I-hope-you-like-your-party-Paul! Hey were you listening?"
"Um... Can I have a Babelfish please?" I asked hopefully. What? They have talking ponies of three different races, I'm sure the must have something like that to translate HER babble... Right? Anyway. I then decided to take a note of what I was wearing remembering Rarity's previous statement. All I wore was a white T-shirt with a little blood on it, blue jeans and a plaid shirt over the top like a coat. What I don't feel the cold anyway.
"Paul We're leaving I'll see you tomorrow to make sure you're okay, okay?" Twilight said to me and waited for my nod before she and all the other ponies left the room.
3... 2... 1... And freak out! I thought to myself as I bit my finger in an attempt to not scream. I am dead, Surely, I mean I am surrounded by talking techni-color ponies some of which are unicorns and others are pegasi. I had to have been killed by that guy! Thinking about this kept me up for another four maybe five hours give or take until I noticed the stars outside. I had never seen them so clearly and vividly before. It was staring at the stars which finally kicked me off to sleep, but not before I made one final note; All the stars are in the same place! Orion, Andromeda, Cassiopeia. All in the same place, I must definitely be dead, no other explanation!
As the Human began to sleep He didn't notice a small asteroid enter the atmosphere in a local forest named The Everfree Forest. Or another pony watching him from his dreams...
