Anon was at his computer. Like he is everyday, most of the day. Jacking off to Rainbow Dash. He would moan her name, desperately wishing that she could be real, and have her be by his side.
Anon eventually went to sleep, after primarily browsing /mlp/ and Ponychan. As he was preparing himself to sleep, he focused on Rainbow Dash. Until he finally fell asleep.
Anon expected to wake up, to the same dreary life. He expected to force himself to get out of bed. Pour the same tired bowl of cereal, then pace the floors as he would daydream of the future he desires, and then remember everything about his past that haunts him, and realize everything in the present that he is disappointed with. Sporadically, but not uncommonly. Then Anon would stay on the internet for the rest of the day. The internet. The prison that Anon condemned himself to. Because he felt that the outside world was too hard on him, and not only that, he was clever enough to realize his own instability. Someone like Anon, may be too great of a danger to people out there. It was better for everyone if he stayed locked away, surviving off the government, and only going out when it was necessary. Avoiding contact with other humans whenever he could.
But instead of waking up to his usual life, he began to hear familiar voices. As he opened his eyes, a small Pink pony jumped right onto anon, and looked right into his face with a giant smile.
"WELCOME TO PONYVILLE.", a familar Pinkie pony said.
"Pinkie... I think you may of scared him.", Twilight Sparkle said.
Anon paused for a minute, completely shocked by whats happening.
"Sorry about Pinkie, she can get carried away at times. May I ask for your name?" Twilight Sparkle asked.
"My name... is Anon."
"Well thats a funny name. Can you explain where you came from? And... uh.. what you are exactly? I have never read of anything like you before."
"I came from Earth... and I am human."
"Earth? Human? Could you please elaborate?"
"It would take far too long to explain."
"I see. Do you have any idea how you ended up here? We just found you lying on the ground."
"I... have no idea. I just went to sleep and then I woke up here."
"Well. I'm Twilight Sparkle. Let me introduce you to my friends. This is Pinkie Pie"
"HI!", Pinkie Pie said with great enthusiasm.
"Rarity"
"A pleasure, i'm sure." Rarity said dramatically.
"AppleJack"
"Howdy.", AppleJack said calmly.
"Fluttershy, you can come out now. Thats Fluttershy."
"Oh-uh I... hello.", Fluttershy said quietly.
"And that over there is Rainbow Dash."
"Everyone, this is Anon."
"Sup Anon." Rainbow Dash said apathetically.
Anon looked right into her eyes, it was her. It was really her. Anon was awe-struck
"Uh.. Anon, why are you starring at me like that?"
Anon snapped out of it
"Oh, uh. I just... think you seem awesome."
"Heh. Now this guy knows what he's talking about."
Twilight rolls her eyes
Pinkie Pie runs straight up to Anon again
"WE SHOULD HAVE A PARTY FOR YOUR ARRIVAL!", Pinkie yelled.
"That sounds great Pinkie, but I think I should show him to Princess Celestia first. This is a rather unique happening. Come on, Anon. I'll show you the way." Twilight said.
Anon decided to follow Twilight, thinking it would be for the best not to go against their ways. As he followed Twilight, Anon looked back at Rainbow Dash before she flew off. Admiring her intoxicating beauty.
Twilight looked back at Anon
"(giggle) Why do you keep looking at Rainbow Dash, Anon?"
"I... Well she flies so fast. Who wouldn't be amazed the first time they saw it."
"Fair enough."
they walked until the reached the palace. Some ponies look at Anon with fear along the way.
"Alright. Wait here for a minute."
Twilight goes through the palace door, and returns a few minutes later.
"Come in."
"Anon, correct?" Princess Celestia questioned.
"Yes."
Celestia looked at Anon with piercing eyes. He felt like he was on trial in a court room.
"You don't know how you got here, correct? Please tell me about Earth and your species."
"Well. Earth is a planet. I don't know what more to say than that. There is no magic on earth, as far as we can prove anyway. And humans. Humans are very complicated. I'm sure you all have your differences here, but Humans take it to a whole new level. Wars are always inevitable between us. Kingdoms and countries rise and fall. Political ideologies evolve and change, but ultimately it results in the same basic outcome. We have things like people killing each other over something as silly as religion. Which means, people believe in different gods, and have different beliefs about how everything came to be and whatnot. If I ever have hope for my own species, it would be destroyed in a short matter of time. I can't even begin to tell you everything really, but I have nothing positive to say. Is that good enough?"
Twilight looked at Anon with confusion, but then put her head down
"It seems your world is quite different from ours... regardless. Since you don't know how you got here I can only assume you don't know how to return to Earth. So, as long as you abide by Equestrian laws, I will allow you to remain here. Otherwise, I may have no choice to banish you to the Everfree forest. Is that clear?" Celestia said harshly.
"...Yes."
"Good, please show him out, Twilight."
Twilight and Anon walk out of the palace
"What was with her? Eying me like that." Anon questioned
I don't know... she normally isn't like that. But what was with that story you told? Are humans really as you describe? Murder doesn't even happen in Equestria anymore..."
"Ya, it's true. Some people may live a pure life, but they're rare."
"Thats simply awful... but i'm glad you aren't taking after your species Anon."
Anon thought to himself. He knew he could be a monster. But he wanted a chance to live a nice life, with ponies no less. This may be his only chance.
"Ya."
"Follow me, i'll show you to your new home."
When Anon arrived, he opened the door.
"SURPRISE!" Pinkie screamed.
Anon could see all of Twilights friends that she introduced, except Rainbow Dash. And many other ponies. Anon was never one to go to a party or care to, but he didn't want to disappoint. So he stepped inside.
"Hey Anon! So, over there is the punch, theres the cake, theres a pin the tale on the donkey game, Just do whatever you like! Theres one more surprise waiting for you later!" Pinkie said
"Er.. thanks."
Anon look around, all the ponies chatting and having fun. He thought of what parties like this are typically like on Earth now days. And felt out of place. Anon went to sit in a corner alone. He watched Pinkie dance on a table, when he saw a Yellow pony sit next to him.
"Uh... hi Anon." Fluttershy said meekly.
"...Hello."
"Um... nice party, right?"
"I suppose so... i'm not really much for parties."
"Um... Me either..."
"So what brought you over here?"
"Well.. um you... seemed kind of lonely. I thought maybe I should.. um.. come over."
"Well, thank you Fluttershy."
"um.. no problem anon."
she smiles back at anon.
"ALRIGHT EVERYPONY. Come on! Step outside." Pinkie said
Everypony steps outside. Anon and Fluttershy follow afterwards.
Anon sees everyone is looking up towards the sky. So he looks up as well. He sees Rainbow Dash, who begins to fly around extremely fast, she leaves rainbow colors behind until it forms words in the sky saying: “Welcome to Ponyville Anon”
Everypony hoofstomps in amusement, Anon begins to smile. It was the first time he did since he can remember. Rainbow Dash lands in front of Anon.
"So Anon, was that AWESOME or was that AWESOME?" Rainbow Dash said with a smirk
It was beyond awesome, Dash..."
"Well i'm glad you think so Anon, Pinkie asked me to do it for you. You should thank her."
Anon looks to Pinkie who isn't far away and says thank you.
"Oh, no problem Anon! I just want you to smile, smile, smile!"
"Well, you succeeded."
"Hehe!"
Pinkie bounces around
"Alright guys, thanks for coming but i'm kind of tired." Anon said.
"Alright everyone, you heard him, time to go." Twilight said.
everypony leaves, Fluttershy stops in front of Anon
"Um.. it was nice hanging out with you, Anon."
"You too."
Fluttershy walks away. Anon looks up as Rainbow Dash flies into the distance, afterwards, he sighs and heads to sleep.
Anon eventually wakes up to knocking on his door. So he walks to the door. It's AppleJack.
"Howdy there, Sugarcube. We're running behind on Apple Acres, and I was wondering if you wanted to help out. You got them there... uh"
"Hands?" Anon answered a question with a question.
"Right, hands. With those things I reckon you should be a mighty help."
"Well... I suppose I could. But manual labor isn't exactly my forte."
"Well don't let me force anything on ya'll."
"na, it's cool."
"Thanks sugarcube. This way."
Anon and AppleJack walk to Apple Acres. Anon works for hours despite the fact that he wanted to pass out within 30 minutes, Anon is panting from exhaustion.
"Haha, you ok there sugarcube?"
"Ya. Just. Need. to. Catch. My. Breath."
"you did mighty good out there."
"Thank you."
"Say, do they do this kind of work where ya'll are from?"
"Yes. But I have never done anything like it till now. In a way I kind of enjoyed it. I never thought i'd be kind of amused by having to do hard work."
"Well, theres nothing like the feeling of accomplishment after hard work."
"Ya, I suppose so."
"I reckon we can handle the rest, why don't you go relax somewhere?"
"Thanks, I will. Later, AppleJack."
"Take care, sugarcube."
Anon walks around ponyville till he finds a burger joint, he goes in, and orders one only to find the burgers are made out of hay. But then, what should he have expected? Anon decides to go to the bakery next door and eat a cake. He sees Pinkie come in and order a cake, Anon catches her eye.
"Oh hey, Anon! Whatcha doin here?" Pinkie asks
"I'm just eating. You?"
"Oh, i'm buying this cake for Rarity's party. She seems kind of down today."
"call me crazy, but somehow I don't think rarity is exactly the kind to be cheered up by a party."
What makes you say that? She only said one thing to you."
"Call it human intuition."
"HEY! I got something like that too I call it Pinkie senses-"
"Thats great, but what did she seem upset about?"
"Oh, I think she was upset that she couldn't come up with a new design for her dresses."
Anon thought, he could just describe a design from his world.
"I think I may be able to help her."
"Really? Thats GREAT! She lives right over there."
"Thank you."
Upon arriving at Rarity's house Anon knocks at the door as he hears sobbing. Rarity opens the door.
"(sniff) What is it, Anon?" Rarity cried.
"I heard you were having some problems designing your dresses, I thought I may be able to help."
"Come in, darling, though i'm not sure how you could help."
"Sec, let me draw something to give you an idea."
"Well, alright but I don't have much time."
"Don't worry, this ones easy. It shouldn't take you long to design."
About a half hour later Anon finishes the drawing.
"There you go, Rarity."
"Why, this is simply amazing! Where ever did you get the idea for this?"
"Well, I remembered a dress I saw in my world, and all I really had to do was apply it to fit a pony."
"Thank you so much, Darling. You're really a lifesaver. Somepony asked me to design something completely new for them, and I just had nothing to work with!"
"No problem. Just glad I could help. Call me if you ever need anything else."
"Certainly, dear."
Anon walks out, it's already nighttime. He began thinking to himself. “Wow, this place is really starting to change me already”. Anon couldn't remember the last time he went out of his way to help anyone. Along the way back to his house, he saw a dark Alicorn flying above him.
"Pray tell, what art thou doing out this late?" Luna said
"Um.. I was just walking home."
"I am princess Luna, sister of Princess Celestia. She hath told me about you."
"Ah."
"May we “chat” for a bit?"
"I don't see why not."
"Doest thou feel very strange about awakening to a new world?"
"Well, I did at first, but it's starting to grow on me."
"Hast thou been told the tale of Nightmare Moon?"
"Well, not exactly, but I do know of it."
"I hast made terrible mistakes in the past. My sister was forced to seal me away to the moon. I understand why she did it, because I was wrong. But she still loved me enough to forgiveth me. It tooketh the ponies a while to understandeth me. But now I am accepted."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I haveth my reasons. I never wanteth to returnest to my olden ways, and olden self. Wouldest thou say the same about thyself?"
"...Ya."
"I must be going now. Taketh care of thyself."
"…You too."
Anon returned home again. Where he fell asleep yet again. Once again he woke up to the sound of a knocking door. He groaned. But answered it. It was Twilight.
"Hey Anon. Since you're going to be living here for quite a while, I was wondering if you wanted to come study about Equestria with me."
"I really don't like to study Twilight."
"Oh but I insist. If you want to live here you should at least know how things work."
"I don't know. I never learned much about how my planet worked."
"Oh come on, please?"
"… Fine."
Anon thought to himself: “It's almost as if shes just using this as an excuse to make me hang out with her.” Anon follows Twilight to her library.
"Let's study the history of Equestria first."
"Sure, whatever."
Twilight lectured Anon as he continued to read through book after book. Until hours later...
"Alright, I think my brain has had about enough as it can handle."
"(giggle) Sorry, Anon."
"No, it's ok. I did learn some valuable things. And it was nice chilling with you."
"Glad to hear that, Anon."
"Say, where is Rainbow Dash lately?"
"I don't know, but it sounds to me like you really adore her."
"What? What do you mean, I just... want to hang out with her more."
"Sure you do, Anon."
"Whatever, I'm out of here."
"Oh i'm just teasing, Anon. It's not my concern anyway. "
"Understood. Later, Twi."
Anon walks out of the library, to which he sees Rainbow Dash flying around in circles. He watches in awe of her. Until Rainbow Dash notices him and stops. Rainbow Dash flies down.
"Hey, Anon still amazed by my awesomeness, I see? Haha."
"You bet... But why are you flying around in circles?"
"Oh, the Wonderbolts want to observe my flying skills in a controlled setting soon, and I gotta make sure that i'm prepared."
"What, are you kidding? I bet you could outfly all of them."
"Haha, ya, that may be true. But the Wonderbolts are pretty amazing too, and I want to be able to show them my best."
"Well, to me you're already like a goddess."
"Huh?"
"Nothing, you're just so awesome is all."
"Hey Anon, is there something you're not telling me?"
Anon thinks to himself, he doesn't know how to react. So he just decides to wing it and tell the truth.
"Dash... this may sound crazy, but... i've been admiring you from afar before I even came here.. it would be hard to explain the details to you especially considering the circumstances, but, I... love you."
"Wait, you mean like, friendly love, or love-love?"
"Love-love."
"Wow.... uh... I... SEE YA LATER ANON!"
Dash zooms off. Anon wonders if he should have kept it to himself, and returns to his house to think everything over. About 5 hours later, he hears knocking on his door yet again. He hesitates at first, but they wouldn't go away. Anon decided to answer the door. To his surprise it was Rainbow Dash.
"Ha... hey Anon... can I... come in?"
"...Sure"
"Listen, I'm sorry about flying off earlier... I just didn't know how to respond. And, I still kind of don't. But... are you entirely sure thats how you feel about me?"
"Yes."
"Well... I uh. Sort of... feel the same way about you. Love at first sight maybe? Heh, who knows. But i'm not sure I want to rush into this... it's all so sudden, and i've never loved someone like this before, not even... him."
"Who?"
"Oh, don't worry about it. It's old news now."
"I see.. well I trust you."
Rainbow Dash awkwardly leans in to kiss Anon for a second on the lips.
"I... still don't know what we should do. But I think she we should hang out more."
Anon was completely taken off-guard the by the spellbinding kiss Rainbow had left him with.
"R-right. I agree."
"I'm going to take off now, it's getting late. See you sometime tomorrow!"
Anon prepares to go to sleep, while lost in thought. “Is this really happening? Is she really real to me? And... she sort of likes me?” Anon eventually dozes off after being lost in thought. He wakes up the next morning, and realizes he is hungry. He's also noticed that while in his world he gets hungry a lot less for some reason. He heads to the bakery to get some more cake since he doesn't really care about what he eats.
He walks out of the bakery to see 3 little fillies playing games with each other. It almost warms his heart a little more. Where Anon came from, most parents would not dare to let their children play outside on their own. But clearly things are different here. Why couldn't people he knew from Earth be like this he thought.
Anon decided to walk to the park. He didn't know where to go and he didn't want to risk finding Rainbow Dash and possibly bothering her. “That was so unreal, but then, so is the fact that I am even here. It's almost like i'm dreaming, but this feels far too real to be just a dream”, he thought. Anon found and empty bench and decided to sit on it. He watched the kids playing, and listen to the birds chirping. This is nothing he would have wanted to do back on Earth. But now that he's here, the simple things have more effect somehow.
Anon eventually saw the yellow pony, who then in turn turned around to see him and walk towards him.
"Oh.. hello Anon. Nice to see you again."
"You too. How have you been?"
"Oh.. uh. Fine I guess. Say Anon... do you...like animals much?"
"Not particularly. I had a Cat back on earth, but I would kind of just pet them and take care of them, didn't often feel much."
"Oh... um.. I love animals."
"I can see that, and it's perfectly fine to me, too each their own, ya know. I think it's just more the fact that I can't communicate with them. It's almost as if theres nothing even there."
"Oh but you can... um.. at least here you can. Animals will make gestures and sounds, and if you really pay attention to them, you can learn how to understand them."
"…Ya, it's kind of the same where I come from. Less so than the animals here appear to be, but still."
"Um... yes... Animals.. can be more than they appear. And they can be saying more to you than they appear to be."
"...Interesting. Never really bothered to think about it. But... I think I'm going to go. It's not you, you were very nice to talk to. I just don't want to hang around the same place for too long."
"Oh... ok. Um... see you around, Anon. Maybe."
"You should, later.'
Anon went around exploring Ponyville. Everywhere he went, he saw a world much different from his. Ya, there was occasionally something going wrong, but it was quickly resolved... it was nowhere near the level of what would happen in his world. Eventually a familiar Pegasus landed in front of Anon.
There you are! I was looking all over for you, Anon!"
"Wait, why? I thought you wanted to take it slow."
"Well, I do. But that doesn't mean I want to cut you off."
"Oh, right... so... uh.... what should we do?"
"I don't kn- how about we go see the fireworks?"
"Fireworks? They have that here? What's the occasion?"
"Oh, nothing really, sometimes these ponies like to set them off from time to time just so ponies can admire the lights in the sky."
"Huh.. that doesn't exactly sound like your kind of thing though."
"Well... not everypony is always as they seem. Come on, let's go. I'll beat you there!"
Rainbow Dash flew off with great speed.
"Right."
Anon walked all the way to the viewing ground, and eventually found where Dash was.
"Glad you could make it, slowpoke."
"Well, if I still have someone like you around, it doesn't matter one bit to me how slow I am."
Dash blushes. Anon thought to himself: “Is this really happening? It feels like a date. How have I not fucked this up yet? I've never been on a date in my life. Internet dating doesn't count”
"Hey Anon."
"Ya?"
"Have you ever been in love before? You know... before you came here?"
"I... thought I was. But it just didn't work out. I've never felt quite the same since I seen you though."
"Do you think... we could... you know, make it all the way if we started?"
"I believe so. I don't see any reason why not.. things are different here... circumstances are different... Do you believe as well?"
"Ya... Hey, look they're starting!"
The fireworks went off for about a half hour, Rainbow Dash ended up sitting on Anon's lap, which made him feel all awkward, meaning he was trying to keep his boner down because he didn't know what ponies thought of sexual attraction at this point. But it happened anyway. Dash didn't seem to notice, instead, Dash laid right on his chest as they both watched the fireworks. And then they ended. Everypony hoofstomped. Except Anon and Rainbow Dash, who were kissing each other.
"It's been so great spending this night with you Dashie..."
"You too Anon... But I can tell you wanted more than you were letting on..."
"I... well... not exactly... my body doesn't speak for my mind... and I didn't want to ruin this..."
"It's ok. Maybe sometime... But I don't want to just give myself away so easy."
"You seem.. kind of different."
"Falling in love can do that to people, i've heard..."
"Wow. Everyone is gone. Guess we should head home... huh?"
"Ya... see you tomorrow, Anon."
Anon and Rainbow Dash head home, Anon heads back to sleep, and he is, once again awoken by the annoying sound of door knocking. He answers the door. It was Rainbow Dash, but she had a funny look in her eyes.
"hey Anon~"
"H-hi Dash."
"Mind if I come in?"
"O-of course not."
"I thought maybe we should have a little fun today."
Rainbow Dash nudged her head against Anons legs
"What kind of fun?"
"Why don't you take those clothes off and find out, boy."
Anon ponders the situation for a bit, but then complies. Rainbow jumps right onto Anon, she rode him so fast, Anon could feel her tight marehood squeezing against him. It was like he suddenly died and went to heaven.
"ha. ha. ha, you liking this, Anon?"
Anon nods.
"Good. Because if you weren't liking it, i'd have to resist the urge to slap you with my hoof."
Rainbow continues riding Anon, it feels so good that he can barely move.
"D-dashie, I think i'm about to cum."
Rainbow notions for Anon to move his head down, Rainbow reaches up, and kisses Anon.
"Cum inside. I want to be yours, and you mine."
Anon cums inside, which sets off Dash's juices as well.
Anon moans in pleasure.
"That was pretty good."
Rainbow Dash leans in to kiss Anon again.
"Just promise me that I will be your only mare."
"I... promise."
"Good."
Rainbow Dash hugs Anon, and Anon wraps his hands around her, they stay like that for a long time.
2 months later
Anon and Rainbow Dash decided that they would marry, all of Dash's friends were so excited when she told them the news, and they all wanted to be a part of it.
"Ok, Pinkie I want you in charge of decorations and the cake." Rainbow Dash said
"SWEET!"
"AppleJack, I want you to be my bridesmare."
"I'm honored sugarcube."
"Rarity, you can make our wedding outfits, you can handle making one human size, right?"
"Of course, dear."
"Ok, good. Fluttershy... um. Twilight, you're in charge of managing it all because i'm sure you know what you're doing. Find something for Fluttershy to do too, if she wants, ok?"
"Of course, just leave it to me. But, hey can I talk to you privately?"
"of course, Twilight, what is it?"
"You've changed some... not to say thats a bad thing though. But are you quite sure this is what you want? You only knew Anon for a little over a few months."
"I'm sure, Twilight. I've never been more sure about anything."
"What about the Wonderbolts, are you still going to have time for that?"
"I... don't really care to join the Wonderbolts anymore."
"Why? It was your greatest ambition to be a part of them."
"I just don't care anymore.. It seems so pointless now. What am I going to do for them anyway? Show off? I don't need that anymore."
"If you say so. Either way, I support your decision."
"Thanks, Twilight."
The wedding played out just like any you've seen before. Ponies crying with joy, some guy playing that one song nobody actually cares about on the piano, the works. After Dash and Anon walked down the isle together, they said I do, and so they kissed, and a giant wedding party was afoot, they had lots of fun, but after a while Dash and Anon went somewhere to be alone.
"it feels so amazing... I never thought I would do this sort of thing, get hitched. But now, i'm happy, Anon. I'm so happy to be with you. It hardly even feels real to me."
"It feels like a dream to me too... but i'm happy too... I love you Dashie."
"And I love you too, Anon. Forever. I promise."
3 years later
Anon has been living happily with Rainbow Dash for a while. But, with time it all started to feel the same to him. Dash made him happy, but. For some reason when she wasn't around, he felt sort of like he did when he was on Earth. The magic he felt was gone.
Anon has been feeling his instability returning, he knew he wanted the throne, just for things to be different. Just for some kind of thrill, or spark of sensation. And he realized he could easily do it too, with how naïve and unprepared the ponies were. But he kept to himself because he didn't want to throw this life away.
"Dashie, where are you going?"
"Oh, some fillies got trapped in cave. I want to help out however I can."
"You're so kindhearted."
"Only because of you..."
"We've been over this before... I didn't do anything... I just influenced you to act differently... If you saw someone in need, you wouldn't hesitate before either."
"I suppose you could be right... anyway, I have to go. Bye, Anon I love you."
"I love you too."
Anon thought about what he should do while shes away. He decided to take a walk through Ponyville. When he saw that strange Zebra again, exchanging supplies with some pony he didn't recognize.
"Careful you must be with these two ingredients, if mixed together they could become a poison most expedient" Zecora said
the pony nods and Zecora walks off.
Anon thought this was the perfect chance. But is this really what he wanted? Either way, the pony was getting away. Likely going to waste them separately on some obscure dinner. Anon decided to do it just in case. He went up to the Pony, and followed him until he crossed a dark alleyway. Anon hit the pony in the head with a nearby pipe, effectively knocking him out. Anon picked up the ingredients. He had no idea what they were, and he didn't care.
Having gotten what he wanted, he returned to his house with it, knowing Dash is going to be away for a while. He thought, and thought. But he decided that it had to be done. He put the ingredients in in pockets, and he headed towards the palace.
He stopped at the guards, and said he was there to see Princess Celestia. One guard went in, and came back. They told him to go in. However, instead of taking the route to Celestia's chambers, he snuck into the kitchen. The Chef, who looked just like the pony he stole the ingredients from had soup cooking, but he went on break. Anon went over to the pot, and poured both ingredients into the soup. Miraculously, they blended perfectly with the soup. Anon headed out, and went into the Palace
"You wanted to speak with me, Anon?"
"Yes Princess, Twilight told me to say that shes sorry that she hasn't wrote you yet. She's just been so busy. She said she'll get around to it when she can."
"Oh, thank you for telling me, Anon. You may leave now."
Anon left, he noticed the chef was coming in with the soup, Anon returned home. And waited.
Within 10 days Celestia, and her sister Luna fell ill. It was thought to be just a common illness, so everypony just helped take care of her.
Within a few more days, Celestia fell dead, Luna died a day after. When word of this reached Twilight and co, they were devastated. Twilight rushed to investigate her death, but she could not determine the cause of death.
"So, Anon. What should we do today? I'm free all day." Rainbow Dash said.
"Anything you want is fine by me, Dashie."
A knock on the door was heard
"I'll get it." Rainbow Dash said.
It was Twilight.
"Rainbow, have you heard? Celestia is dead. Riots are already breaking out, everypony demands to know what happened, some of them are getting violent with guards, Cadance is on her way to help remedy the situation, but if this keeps up, we won't be able to hold them back forever, and Ponyville may fall into Anarchy. I need your help!"
"Oh my gosh... Anon, i'll be back later, something extremely important came up."
"It's ok, Dashie. I understand. I love you."
"I love you too, Anon."
Anon felt no remorse for what he did. Just hearing of what was happening, and knowing he was the cause gave him a rush of excitement. Anon left his house. The next phase of his plan was to eliminate Cadance. He went up to the palace, said he had business with the princesses. One guard left and came back out. They said he may go in.
"Oh, Anon. Why did you want in here?" Twilight asked.
"I just couldn't stand by knowing what was going on. Is there anything at all I can do to help?"
"No, nothing i'm afraid. We have no evidence, and without evidence we can't rightfully make any move. We do have a suspect though." Cadance said.
"Really? Who?"
"The Zebra, Zecora. She's known to be extremely skilled with magical potions, a very rare art. By the look of it, Celestia and Luna were poisoned. As far as I and Twilight are aware, only she would have access to poison like this. The problem is we can't say for certain if it was poison."
"Oh, I see. I'm sorry for intruding. Are you entirely sure there is nothing I can do?"
"Well, you could bring us some food, the chef quit out of fear and left the palace. We have to continue checking their bodies for further evidence in the meantime." Twilight said.
"Ok, i'll be right back."
Anon heard Twilight crying as he left the room, with Cadance trying to reassure her. Anon went into the kitchen, he still had some of those ingredients he was saving, and he poured them both into the hay stew. He grabbed the stew, and grabbed a regular stew after they were finished cook, then went back to the throne room.
"The chef left this cooking apparently, thought you may like some. There was nothing else left in the kitchen I could use anyway." Anon said
Anon handed the poisoned stew to Cadance, and the regular stew to Twilight.
"Thank you Anon" Twilight said.
"Yes, thank you very much." Cadance said.
"No problem. But where are the others?"
"They're with Rainbow Dash trying to quell the riots." Anon said.
"What is it with these riots anyway?"
"Everypony is listening to some unidentified human who is claiming that we were plotting to take the throne for ourselves according to our informants." Twilight said.
Anon had no idea who this human was, but he decided it was best to keep quiet about it.
"Sounds like the work of the Discord.." Cadance said.
"It does... but he was sealed away again years ago when Celestia suspected he was scheming again. She said she made use of his power regardless. So it can't be him." Twilight said.
"So there is no way to keep these ponies calm at all?" Anon said.
I've tried to speak to them, but it seems that they just won't calm down until they have an exact answer." Cadance said.
"I see. Well, i'm going to go help them as well if I can't help you two." Anon said.
"be safe Anon.." Twilight said.
As Anon walks out, he hears Twilight checking Celestia
"Cadance! Look at the color of the lining on the inside of her throat."
"Looks like it was poison indeed.."
Anon walks out, and sees the that riots have moved all the way to the front of the palace. Fluttershy is hiding in a bush, AppleJack is kicking ponies left and right, Rainbow Dash is flying around in circles to make them dizzy, and knocking some out when needed, Pinkie Pie, now Pinkamena is firing her party canon at them slowly, while pausing every now and then to cry. Rarity is using her magic to keep barriers around the rioting ponies.
"We can't hold them back! What in Cadance's name are we going to do?" a guard said.
"Just keep holding out, Twilight is smart, and Cadance will listen, they'll think of something!" Rainbow Dash said.
Cadance appears on the palace balcony
"ALL OF YOU PLEASE CALM DOWN. We have proof that the princesses were poisoned. The only pony known who is capable of creating this kind of potion is Zecora. One of our guards has just brought her to us, and she will stand trial. But please, for the sake of Ponyville, stand down." Cadance said.
One by one they calmed down and left, until they left as a whole.
"See, what'd I tell you? Oh hey, Anon! What are you doing here?" Rainbow Dash said.
"I was going to help out, but it seems you all got it under control. I think i'll be going back home now."
"Wait Anon, don't you think you should stay with our friends in times like these?"
"Sorry Dashie... I just don't have it in me."
"I'll come with you then. I want to be with you, my love."
"Thanks, Dash. I love you more than anything."
12 days later, Cadance falls ill, Twilight Sparkle interrogates Zecora for a cure, but Zecora simply claims that there is none. Within 2 more days, Cadance falls dead. A day later, Zecora was also found dead in her cell the exact cause of death remains unknown, however there were many stab wounds. Twilight Sparkle has not been seen by anyone since. Panic is breaking out through Ponyville, many are listening to the human Twilight mentioned, with his manipulation, he claims that Twilight eliminated the other princesses for power, and he claims that he is the only one in Ponyville worthy to rule, and re-stabilize Ponyville. Word has it that Shining Armor committed suicide and the Crystal Empire fell into Anarchy. Others claim that the human's "cult" assassinated him.
A few days after prior events, Rainbow Dash finds Twilight in her secret basement with a kitchen knife next to her, stained with blood. There were scars all over Twilights body, one of her wings was cut off. The injuries were self-inflicted, but she was still alive. After Rainbow Dash got Twilight all bandaged up, and they had a long conversation, Twilight asks Rainbow Dash to bring Anon to her. And so she does.
"Ok you two, the situation is dire. If I resurface at this point thanks to that human, I may well just be killed. Given the recent events, I just wanted to give up. But I can't let Ponyville fall into his hands, or into anarchy. So. First off, since you are here Anon, do you have any idea who the human may be?" Twilight said.
"I don't have a clue to be honest with you."
"I see. Regardless, I need an heir to the throne, should I die. And I think that pony should be you, Rainbow Dash."
"What? Why me?"
"You gave me the will to press on when I had none, all with the sake of ponyville in mind. You are the element of Loyalty, and I have little doubts that you have been loyal to me and the people of Ponyville. You will have to become an Alicorn though."
"Well... alright Twilight. If you say so."
"But what's the plan aside from that ,Twilight? " Anon asked.
"I don't have one... the ponies willing to follow the human seem to increase everyday. Any confrontation with him will not likely have a desirable outcome."
"leave it to me then." Anon said.
"What? All by yourself?" Twilight said.
"It's worth a shot. Just make sure Dash becomes a princess."
"Wait, i'll go with you too." Rainbow Dash said.
"No. I got this. You go through the process of becoming an Alicorn Princess while i'm away." Anon said.
"Well... ok Anon, I love you."
Anon reaches in to kiss Rainbow Dash
"I love you too."
Anon leaves Twilight's library, wondering and sneaking around in the chaos, until finally he could see a human speaking to a large group of ponies. Anon listened, and as he listened it became increasingly clear who it was. All those talks about useless Communist garbage. And he's in Ponyville no less. Anon decided to approach him.
"Another human? Perfect! Perhaps you could assist me in spreading the teachings of Marx and Lenin to everypony!" Anon 2 said.
"Sorry to disappoint, but I could care less about your Commie bullshit right now. And you're in my way. I challenge you to a duel to the death. The winner, the survivor will have the right to chase the throne. And whoever dies, their ideals will fade from Ponyville forever." Anon said.
"And just what is your political alignment?" Anon 2 asked.
"I have none. It's only me, and what I choose to do."
"(laughs) I thought I recognized you from somewhere. Very well, I will accept your challenge, what weapons shall we be using?"
"Only our bare fists."
"Prepare yourself then."
both Anons battled for 17 minutes. Anon gave it his all, but he was completely overpowered by Anon 2. Until Anon fell on the ground, unable to get up. Anon 2 began crushing Anon's head under his boot.
"You are weak. You have no ideology other than Hedonism to guide you. The only reason you seek power is to remedy your lack of satisfaction. You have no purpose living, and you have no purpose to rule aside from your own selfish desires. Ponyville needs a leader like me. With a strong ideology, and this is why you have lost. Now. Prepare to die." Anon 2 said.
Anon 2 continued to smash Anon's face in with his boot, but suddenly he stopped, Anon could hear a familiar voice.
"You... you're going to pay..." Pinkamena said.
"Now, now my dear. You and your cohorts left me no choice. I didn't want to kill them, but they just would not surrender their loyalty to Princess Twilight even when captured and tortured. They have no place in the world I am establishing. Now, why don't you be a good little pony and return to your torture chamber. There may be hope for you yet." Anon 2 said.
Anon 2's "cult" army of ponies surrounded Pinkamena
"This... is for all you did to my friends, and me. You sick freak." Pinkamena said.
Pinkamena pulled out a sub-machine gun she stole from Anon 2's headquarters, her hoof broke through the trigger guard, though they tried to fight back, Pinkamena was too fast. And one by one she gunned them all down. Anon 2 pulled out at his pistol and pointed it right at Pinkamena, Pinkamena was already aiming towards Anon 2. They stood there for what seemed like minutes starring at each other, until Pinkamena fired, and Anon 2 retaliated directly after. Both Pinkamena and Anon 2 fell to the ground. This is when a familiar Rainbow pegasus appeared, only now she was an Alicorn.
"Anon! Are you ok?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Beaten pretty bad... but I should be fine. Check on Pinkie, she saved me."
Anon threw up blood from his mouth
"Pinkie! are you ok?"
Rainbow Dash attempted to use her horn to heal Pinkamena, but it was no good.
"Dash... i'm sorry. I couldn't... save them."
"What? Save who?"
"Our friends...That... horrible monster... he killed them."
"What...? Thats what happened to them...? I thought... they were just laying low... no need to apologize Pinkie... I'm sure you did all you could. I just regret that I didn't show up in time to save you..."
"Dash... don't worry about me. I think it's better this way... but promise me that you and Twilight will work to restore Ponyville... so that everyone can smile again... it all happened so fast... but so many lives were ruined as a result..."
"I promise I will Pinkie... I promise."
"Dashie... remember... smile... smile... smi-"
Pinkamena collapsed, Rainbow Dash checked her pulse, but she was already gone. Rainbow Dash shed a tear as she saluted her. Rainbow Dash told a civilian to find the town undertaker, upon his arrival, Dash told him to make sure that she gets a proper burial.
Dash went to Anon and hugged him tight
"Why did it have to be this way...?" Rainbow Dash said.
"At least we still have each other..."
"I know... but it's still so hard... they've been my friends as far back as I can remember. Do you think it's finally over? Can all of this chaos just be put to rest now?"
"As far as I can tell... it's never over once it begins... but I will always be here with you... no matter what happens."
Rainbow Dash leans in to kiss Anon
"Thank you Anon.. I don't know what i'd do without you..."
"I don't know what i'd do without you either..."
It was decided upon by Twilight that Zecora and the chef were blackmailed by Anon 2. The day after, Twilight resurfaced, guarded by Rainbow Dash, Anon, and the remaining guards who disappeared when Twilight did, and who Rainbow Dash found and reorganized. Twilight declared Rainbow Dash as her heir to the throne, publicly. On sight of Twilight there was some uproar, but they were ultimately kept in line. A week afterwards, Twilight was found stabbed to death in the throne room. It remains unknown whether her death was self-inflicted or not. Upon Rainbow Dash's accession to the the throne, Anon was declared her Prince. A teenage Scootaloo was declared her heir months later.
Under the rule of Anon and Rainbow Dash, peace returned to Ponyville, and eventually the Crystal empire was retaken, and given to Scootaloo. But, like all great things, the same peace they knew came to an end with time yet again.
Roughly over a half year later, Anon and Rainbow Dash were cut off from the public, only appearing to make new laws and whatnot. Eventually, an alicorn transformation was required of all ponies. Any ponies who refused were put to death. Upon the new age of the Alicorn master race, Scootaloo was found dead, causes were undisclosed. Slowly but surely all of Equestria was conquered and only Alicorns remained living, not even the animals were spared. Except Anon, who was the only human. He continued to live his life as though it were a dream.
No pony knows why or how the rule of Rainbow Dash and Anon turned to tyranny. Some say Rainbow Dash eventually snapped from memories of her deceased friends, some say there was internal conflict between the two rulers, and one was being locked away. Others say that they only did what they were required to, saying a world without differences, and under strict laws was required for a utopia.
But I know. Rainbow Dash became corrupted by Anon and his ideals overtime, and decided to follow through. She came to agree that it was the only way to save Equestria in the long run. But no one was happy. No one smiled. Everyone became as drones, just doing what they were required to do. Even the rulers felt like drones.
And eventually, Anon realized that it all wasn't worth it. He had a happy dream world, and he chose to throw that all away for power. And Rainbow Dash, she rarely even talked to Anon after a while. Rumor was spread even among the royal guards of her “disloyalty”. But Anon didn't care. He didn't care about anything at this point. He couldn't. It would pain him so much. And so he was back where he started, just under difference circumstances. Hiding from the outside world in his throne room, cold, miserable, alone, and internally insane.
Suddenly Anon woke up to a loud beeping sound. Anon reached up to feel his face. Was it all really just a dream? It felt so real. Anon got up, and looked everything over carefully, sure enough, he was in his old home, but he still wasn't sure if it was all a dream. He decided to turn on the tv, he checked the Hub. He could see “my little pony” on the guide title, he decided to hover over it, but, he noticed in the description that name of the show was now called: “My little pony: Friendship is Dead”. Upon clicking on it and watching it, he realized that he was watching the life of 6 oppressed freedom fighters, who's goal it was to topple the regime of Rainbow Dash and Anon at all costs. But by the way they were talking, Anon knew they just wanted to claim power for themselves.
Anon didn't know what to think of this. He had dealt with plenty of strange paranormal things in his life, but this? This was just insane. It was entirely based on fiction. He had to be dreaming again. Anon left the tv, and went into the kitchen. When he looked on the fridge, he saw a note. He picked it up and read it: “Dear Anon, whatever world we live in, whatever the circumstances, no matter what happens. I just want you to know, that you are loved, don't question how this message got to you, or what's going on, just know that I still love you. -RD”
Anon couldn't grasp what was happening, he didn't know what to feel. He let out a tear, but he wasn't sure if it was due to sorrow, joy, or something else. About a half hour of thinking later, Anon decided to get something to eat. Afterwards, he returned to his room. He looked up at the framed photo of Rainbow Dash he had printed out, and placed on the wall. More tears came out. And, after hours of thinking about what just happened, and thinking about his life, he decided what should be done. He reached into the cabinet in the kitchen, and pulled out his gun. He was tired of living. No matter what he didn't feel worthy to walk the earth. And it only pained him in the end. He knew that he was only a burden to everyone around him.
And so Anon held the gun to his head, before he shot, he said outloud: “I love you too”. And with that, Anon fell to the floor. Neighbors heard the gun shot and called the cops. When he was found, and investigated, the conclusion was suicide. Nobody cared about him, so no one would pay for his funeral. And thus, he was cremated.
fiction can be a powerful thing. Whether we realize it or not. Most people just see elements created by our minds for entertainment. But there is always more behind it. All fiction was inspired by reality. And before fiction was created, there was only reality. But who am I to even be narrating this story? I guess the answers are so simple when you don't know everything.
End.
