Chapters TacoBell gives you wings!
The OC Theory
Chapter 1
I am Chase. And I was a happy man.
I was sitting in my Graphic Design and Illustration class, enjoying a nice, warm fresh, Doritos Cool Ranch Taco from Taco Bell and sipping some ice cold Mountain Dew, during the 30 minute lunch break we got.
I had just finished the project we had been assigned that week, a simple poster for the new Fallout 4 game. Our teacher happened to be a gamer, and wanted to see what we could come up with. Now normally, this would be a tedious task for me, as it required, well, actually working! But, I, being the gamer I am, agreed and finished mine 2 days early, and managed to sneak Little Pip from Fallout Equestria in there!
I was starting to get bored, so I decided taking a nap was an appropriate thing to do at that time. The last thing I saw before I fell asleep was a bright flash.
In my dream I was sitting on a cloud, staring off into the distance at a castle on a mountain. It looked impossible, how could it support it’s own weight, let alone, without any support beams, or columns on the bottom? Anyways, I felt weird around my hands, like they were always open. I looked down and noticed a light blue hoof.
As I stepped into the bathroom, the sickness left me, but was now replaced by a growing agitation and pain near my shoulders. As if my back felt cramped, under my shirt?
I entered one of the two stalls and took of my shirt. As I did, the pain died, and I looked behind me as I felt a breeze on my back.
WAIT! WE HAVE WINGS?!?!
*cough* Thank you brain, but if you excuse me, I’m speaking to the reader.
Back on topic, they were light blue and felt almost weightless on my back.
At this point I was freaking out. I had no clue why I had wings, (not like I really cared. I thought they were cool.) and I couldn’t just walk back into class like this.
At that point I heard the bell and sighed. At least now I wouldn’t have to go back to class like this.
I put on my shirt, and left the bathroom.
<~=O=~>
And that brings us back to this moment in time.
I looked around frantically for my friends. I was in the normal meeting spot, behind the school, and was starting to get worried that someone would notice the weird shape on my back.
Suddenly, my two friends, Alex and Amos, rounded the corner. Amos was a well build guy, although he stood at only 5ft 3in, he could tackle anyone.
And Alex, well she was a skinny, and very pale white, girl, and she had nice beautiful brown hair and-
*cought* Sorry. Anyways, Alex had her hoodie up, and Amos look like he was constipated.
“Wow…. You guys ok?” I asked. It wasn’t normal to see Alex with her hood up.
“No… Look.” Amos said as he reached into his pants and pulled out a tail. It was light green and looked soft.
Sighing I pulled off my shirt and my wings flared. Alex looked at me with a massive blush on her face as Amos, literally broke all sense of privacy as he examined my wings. As he was looking at where they started, he ran his hand down in between the joints.
“Ughhhh” I moaned, before blushing and going wide eyed, but it looked like Alex and Amos already beat me to that. They were giving me weird looks.
“What the fuck was that!? You get turned on by that or something?!” Amos asked with a look that could only be disgust.
“J-Just don’t do that again!” I snapped at him. Then I turned over to Alex.
“So...What’s up with the hoodie?” I asked her.
She lowered the hoodie and showed me two gold yellow ears, that really complimented her pale skin and made her look soooo much cuter!
*cough* I get….carried away.
“Well…….I think I’m gonna go home and do research on this.” said Amos.
“Yeah, text me if you find anything. In the meantime, I will also look.” And with that we parted.
<~=O=~>
As I pulled up into my driveway with my pickup truck, I noticed that Mom’s car was missing.
Must have gone shopping or something.
I got out of the car and locked it before going inside. When I entered, I could not hear my sister at all, and saw no sign of her. After climbing the stairs, I found her in her room, laughing like a maniac. And on her head rested two pony ears. But they did not look like normal, they had..more fluff to them? I’d have to check that out later.
“Hey Ana, seems like you got Pony-fied too.” He name was Anastasia, but I call her Ana for short.
“Oh hey Chase! These popped up on my head when I got back from school! I took a nap and TADA~! EARS!” She squeed. It was so adorable too, because her ears would move.
“Ok, well, I’ll be researching to see if I can find out what’s causing this. I’ll be in my room.” I turned to walk to my room before stopping. “Oh, and, try to find a way to tell mom so she doesn’t freak out.”
“Ok bro!” she said cheerfully.
I smiled and walked towards my room. When I entered, I sat at my desk and turned on my computer.
“This is gonna suck” I mumbled as I launched Firefox.
2 hours later…
After spending 2 hours looking for results, I found a newly created website, that claimed that 2 teenagers plugged in a computer to charge using their “Particle accelerator and Light Slower Downer Thing” while downloading the newest episode of MLP. Now they were hosting a last minute convention in Chicago to sort things out.
Great. Chicago, that like over a day, away from Texas!
Just then I hear my Mom get out of her car and lock it! Ana ran into my room.
“I didn’t think of anything!” she screamed!
I tossed her a jacket with a hood, while I put on my own jacket and we went downstairs.
When Mom entered the house she put her car keys on the table and looked at me. She immediately stared at my back.
Damn, not even 1 second!
“What are you hiding this time Chase.” She narrowed her eyes as she looked at me.
And she fainted.
Great. We killed her. Good Job to us.
SHUT UP BRAIN!

The OC Theory
Chapter 2
So, where were we? Oh yeah, Mom fainted.
So, we spent some time to try to wake her up but instead just decided to wait. It took her 2 hours to fully recover, but once she did, she almost lost consciousness for the second time that day.
“Oh, Ana, I had the weirdest dream. You had Pony ears, and slowly you were turning into more of a pony….” She stopped as she saw Ana’s Pony ears and her newly grown tail. Then she turned and saw my wings, and fur. Yes, I had grown fur.
Ana just giggled “Silly mom! It wasn’t a dream!”. I just looked at her with a “you’re not making things better” look. Mom on the other hand started cry.
Hey! I can hear you!
I don’t care if you can hear me! YOU ARE USELESS.
Ehem, anyways. So, after comforting my Mom for a little bit, I received a text from Alex. It said one thing. “Come fast please!”. I showed to my Mom, and darted towards that door. I got my keys and ran into the truck, while plugging Alex’s address into my GPS.
I started driving. It wasn’t a particularly long drive, around 5 minutes, and soon I started to see her house some into view. The sky had darkened, yet I could still see clearly. As I pulled into her driveway, I found her crying on her porch, with a bag of her stuff.
I decided not to ask about it, and I approached her.
“STAY AWAY FROM ME!” she yelled. For the first time in my life, I was hurt. Hurt not because she yelled, but because it was the tone in her voice, that showed pure fear.
She must have been through hell…..
For once, we agree brain.
I picked her up, and carried her to the truck. She was fairly light and it did not take much strength. I went back to her porch, and picked up her stuff. As I turned to leave, the door opened.
“That’s right! Leave, you-you freaks!” yelled a man, I could only assume was her father.
“WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER YOU BASTARD?!?!” I yelled.
“Disowned her, that’s what! I don’t want no demonic freak in my house. And I’ll shoot you, is you stay too-” Anything he was about to say was cut off as I punched him square on the face. As he fell back he looked at me with disgust.
“You deserved that you bastard!” I spat at him, then got into the truck and drove off.
Arriving at my house, I looked at Alex, and sighed. She looked like she had been through a huge emotional trauma.
I got out of the truck and went inside. After telling my Mom, and sister what happened, I went back and carried Alex to the guest room, and tucked her in.
Now that I was calmer I noticed she had a yellow horn on the forehead. Turning around, I closed the doors to the guest room, and walked towards my room.
Tomorrow will be better.
I can only hope so.
<~=O=~>
Waking up, I found Alex and my sister sitting at the breakfast table, and my Mom in the kitchen cooking pancakes.
“Morning girls! Morning Mom!” I chirped as walked over to the table. I could see that Ana had somehow managed to cheer up Alex a little bit. I sat down next to Alex, and she blushed.
“Am I making you uncomfortable?” I asked her, concerned, because I still remembered how fragile she had been, only 8 hours ago.
“No! I-I um… I heard that you punched my father.” she said her blush still evident.
“Oh, I-I’m so sorry! I just got carried away and-”
“Thank you” she interrupted.
“What?!” I was caught back by this. Why did she thank me for punching her father?
“He’s been hitting me and beating me, for years, and after my mother died, it got worse. So thank you Chase!” she smiled at me, her blush deepening.
“Uh, No problem!” I said, starting to blush just a tad.
“Wow, that’s no way for a father to treat his daughter! Especially after her mother died!” My mom said, after placing the pancakes on the table. “Lucky for you, if you ever need someone to call family, we are here for you!” she said with a smile.
Alex seemed really touched by this and hugged my Mom. “Thank you!”
After our little breakfast my Mom gave me the keys to the family RV.
“Take good care of Ana, and please, no matter what happens, know that I’m here for you, even if you do turn into a pony.”
I was really happy about this. Most mothers would just freak out since their son and daughter are turning into ponies.
“Thanks Mom!” I got in the RV and noticed that she had cleaned it, and even stocked it with food and supplies.
Awww Yeah!
Dammit, I thought you’d stay quiet for once brain.
<~=O=~>
After diving to Amos’ house, and waiting for him, since we forgot to tell him we were coming, we were finally able to get on the road again.
After driving for a while, I felt weird in between my legs. Not like I had to use the restroom, but like, ‘I just got a breeze, where I should not be getting one’ kinda breeze.
DUDE! TMI, jeez!
It’s not like you don’t already know this! Anyways, I tried asking Amos, who was currently driving, to turn off the AC when my I noticed my voice was slightly higher.
I blushed, and ran to the restroom. And, what I saw, made me cry inside.
Let’s just say, a man, just lost his manhood.
After having sat there in confusion, I got up and exited, and sat next to Amos.
He looked at me, and I shook my head. He sighed.
“That sucks man.” He said, looking at me with those handsome, green eyes of his-
WTF!?!? ARE YOU GAY?!?! HELP!!!! I MUST LEAVE BEFORE HE CORRUPTS ME!!!
I agree. I have no clue where that came from.
<~=O=~>
We stopped at a gas station and Ana made a beeline inside, with me following her, and Amos staying behind with Alex.
Ana ran straight for the chocolate, returning with 12 chocolate bars, enough for all of us to eat 3. I walked up to the register. He had his radio on and was listening intently to the news.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, it would appear that people worldwide are turning into ponies. No, you heard me right, ponies. Two kids in Chicago, claim it happened when they charged their computer with a Particle Accelerator, while downloading an episode of My Little Pony. They are now hosting a last minute convention in Chicago to gather all these ‘to-be Ponies’ and hopefully fix the problem. Stay tuned for-” The broadcast was interrupted when the cashier turned off the radio.
“Ponies. HA! I’ll believe it when I see-” he stopped mid-sentence as he saw me and Ana.
“Yeah, it’s happening.”
“So, what did you get me?” asked Amos teasingly.
“I got a chocolate bar for my cute little friend.”
And behold, the brakes were slammed and all eyes were on me.
Great, look what you did.
SHUT UP!

Welcome to my third chapter! Just some quick info,

The OC Theory
Chapter 3
Well… I definitely did not like this situation.
Here I was, being stared at by all three passengers in the RV, waiting for an answer to a question, that I was still asking myself. Why did I say that?
“Dude! Seriously, are you secretly gay or something? WTF was that!?” said Amos.
“N-no!” I retorted only to be shut down.
“Then explain why you called ME, A MALE, CUTE?!?” he half yeled, bewildered that his long time friend called him cute.
“It was an accident! I swear!” I lied.
Amos looked at me and saw the look on my face. After signing he, started driving again with his hooves.
“Fine, but we’ll talk about this later.” he said.
Rewind a second. HE HAS HOOVES?
It would appear that while I was in the gas station he got hooves. Although he was driving just fine, I was still concerned.
I looked behind me and I could see that Alex now had a tail, and that Ana now had fur.
Great, it’s speeding up.
<~=O=~>
He had entered Dallas, TX, and found a hotel to stay at. For some reason, it did not look like it would be comfortable sleeping in the RV.
After entering, I headed for the front desk to find a dragon, staring back at me, just about 2 inches taller than me.
“Heh. I see I’m not the only one turning. What can i do for you?” he asked.
“Um.. can we get 2 rooms?”
“Sure thing! Just sign here, and here are your keycards! We charge you when you check out.” he answered.
After signing the paper and taking the keycards, we went to the elevators and found Rooms 105, and 106.
“Why did you get two rooms?” Amos asked me.
“Um… I’d rather not be in the same room…. sorry.” I responded keeping my head down.
Amos looked hurt, but said it was fine. After Amos and Ana went into their room, me and Alex went into ours. And what we saw blew our minds.
The hotel only cost us $120 a night. So you can imagine our surprise when we found, a marble floor, marble counter, a TV with what looked like gold around it. In the bathroom, the floor was made of some kind of black polished marble, and the sink was made of gold.
“They really meant it when they said “Cheap luxury”” I said, remembering the sign outside.
“Wow, but Chase, we need to talk about what happened today, and why you picked to sleep in the same room as me.” Crap. Oh well, I guess it would not hurt to tell her. After all, I needed to tell someone eventually.
“Fine.”
<~=O=~>
“So, let me get this straight, you’re a girl now? Like, in, physically and emotionally?” she asked.
“Yes, and for some reason, I found Amos….. attractive.” Guh!!! I was trying to hid my massive blush but it was impossible!
Alex, just stared at me for a bit, before breaking out laughing.
“What’s so funny!?” I yelled. I was kind of hurt. First I get turned into a girl, now I getting laughed at because of it.
“I’m so sorry! I can’t help it! You look so adorable trying to hide your blush!” This made my face burn even more as my blush deepened.
“Have you ever seen a girl hide her blush?” she asked.
Now that I thought of it, girls never seemed to hide their blushes. At least not successfully.
“no….”
“Well, there you go.”
I was frustrated.
You always are!
No one asked you!
“I’m going to sleep. I need to really think about this in the morning.” I said, as I climbed to the other side of the single bed in the room. Right now, I was so glad that the beds in this hotel were huge!
<~=O=~>
I woke up hearing movement. My ears perked up to that-
NOW WE HAVE EARS?!? WHEN WILL IT STOP?!?
Of course that’s all you care about. I whipped my head up to find that the intruder, was Alex, packing her things, and getting ready to check out.
After getting my stuff together as well, and taking a nice warm shower, we headed downstairs, were Amos and Ana were waiting for us.
The Dragon lady was also waiting for us. “The would be $150 sir!” she chirped.
I didn’t bother asking why it went to $150 from $120, and just handed her my debit card which she carefully took in her claws, careful not to scratch it.
After paying, and buying some breakfast, we were on the road again, with me driving, Amos riding shotgun, and the other two girls, in the back.
<~=O=~>
We were just outside of Dallas when Amos finally confronted me about yesterday.
“So…. When will you tell me what happened yesterday?” he basically demanded from me.
After sighing I began. “Well, with my newest transformations, one of the things that…..changed, was….my gender” I said with a slight blush.
Amos just blinked. After a bit, he hugged me and said “I’m sorry for yelling at you yesterday, it’s just…...nevermind.” Why he hugged me was beyond me, but I didn’t care. It was warm, and comforting. I tried to make the moment last for as long as possible before breaking the embrace, so i could drive without crashing.
And as if on cue, a car further down the road went spinning and crashed, sending the driver outside, and to our shock, he was a green pegasus.
We all looked at eachother, before continuing with a renewed caution.
<~=O=~>
As we made it into the panhandle of Texas, I could not stop wondering if I would stay like this forever. What if those two stupid kids in Chicago did not have a cure. Would all bronies stay like this? And what would happen when we completely changed?I don’t know, but if you ever need anything, I’m here for you.
Of course, you are. You have no choice. You are my brain. And Thanks, even though you can be annoying as hell.
I know! I love you too.
Gosh, don’t make it gay, brain.
As I was driving, one of the cars to our left crashed into us, sending us on our side, and crashing on the side of the road.
My vision started getting blurry and I could hear Ana, Alex and Amao all calling my name.
no, no, no,no,no,no,NO! Stay with me!
Last this I saw before losing consciousness, was a red liquid covering my hooves.
Rule 63 for everybody! yay!
The OC Theory
Chapter 4
My head was throbbing. It was as if a nail was sticking out of my forehead.
I raised my head up slowly to find, Alex, Ana, and Amos, all looking at me, like a miracle just happened.
“H-Hey guys. Why am I here?” I asked quietly.
“WHY ARE YOU HERE?!?! YOU CRASHED THE FREAKING RV AND GOT A GLASS SHARD IN YOUR HORN!!” he yelled as he shook his hooves in frustration, and his ears fell flat on his head, complete with green mane and everything.
WAIT WHAAAAAAA-
SH! Just shut up! It hurts to talk to you right now!
Anyways, it would appear the Amos had almost completely turned into a pony. All that was left were with Torso and Legs.
Then there was Ana. I was staring at a faded blue, bat pony, complete with bat wings and fangs. But, she was as tall as a filly. Eh, at least she would be lighter to carry.
“Us? look at yourself! You’re an ALICORN!!!” screamed Alex as she pulled out a mirror.
“Why was my horn bleeding?” I asked.
“When you crashed, the windshield shattered, sending a shard of glass, right at your forehead. Instead of it hitting your brain, it hit the growing and sensitive horn, so you fainted from the pain.” explained Alex.
“You almost died dude.” said Amos this time.
Then my brain decided to catch up.
“WAIT!! I'M AN ALICORN!?!?! WHAT THE FU-” instead of finishing my curse, a bright, green light flashed, and my body changed.
What I was looking at was, disturbing to say the least.
I was now looking down at hooves (which were my hands) that were made of hard chitin. They had many holes in them and so did my horn. My eyes were completely blue, no pupil, no nothing, just blue. And my tail, was dramatically decreased in length. I also noticed that I felt like I no longer had a gender.
“WAIT WHAAAAAAAT??!?!” screamed Ana as she started hissing at me.
“You’re a changeling?!!??” spoke Amos.
And then, I just decided, falling unconscious, was the perfect response at the moment.
<~=O=~>
I opened my eyes, to see what looked like my bedroom. I was laying on my bed when I heard buzzing. I looked up to find a changeling that looked exactly like me staring back down on me.
“Who are you? And Where am I?” I asked. Wait a sec-. Great, I was becoming the stereotypical lost person whose first questions are those.
“My name, I shall reveal to you later. But, you are in your dream. I am nothing but a reflection of who you are, and who you will become. I am you, from Equestria.” he said in my voice.
“So, what’s happening? Why are we turning into ponies?”
And he responded, “You are turning into your OC. I am your OC, that your mind subconsciously created. What those two kids in Chicago did, did not cause this directly. It opened a wormhole, allowing an ancient Equestrian Evil to manipulate you, and every other brony, so that you may later on become his minions. But we, the OC’s could not allow this. Right now, everyone is being informed, when they fall asleep.”
Wow. That’s a lot of information.
“I’m afraid our time is up. Until next time.” he said, bowing his horn full of holes.
<~=O=~>
I woke up on the hospital bed, again. Looking at the clock revealed that no more than 20 minutes had passed. I looked around to find three familiar shadows hiding behind the curtain to my hospital bed.
“Guys? I’m awake!” I yelled.
“Just wait there!” shouted Alex, in a voice, too deep to be hers.
“Are you okay?” i asked, suddenly with renewed concern.
“Discord visited us.” said Alex in that deep voice again.
“Okay…. and?” I was getting impatient. I wanted to see if my friends were ok.
Suddenly the curtains drew back and I was left with my jaw on the floor.
“He went Rule 63 on everypony.” said Ana.
Author's Note
Well, sorry for the delay! I had to find this chapter and re-post, after forgetting to hit the "Publish" button. XD
Well, I ended up, condensing it back down to 1,100 words, since I personally, thought that, most of the 2,000 words, were just UN-important things. Chapter 5 has been written and is coming out tommorow! It's closing at 2,000 words (because I just know you want to read more!
Thank you for reading! I love you guys!

The OC Theory
Chapter 4 Part 2
“WAIT WHATTTTTTT!!?!?!?” I screamed as I looked and the now, male Alex and Ana, and female Amos.
“What’s the problem? It was all in the name of good fun!” said a random voice out of no where.
Suddenly Discord appeared holding a giant sign saying “I <3 Rule 63.”
I face palmed. “Discord, now is not the time. Please fix this.” I said with a hint of irritation in my voice.
“Fine.” he said, slight anger in his voice. Suddenly, everyone in the room was back to their original gender. Except for me of course, since I’m a freaking changeling.
That was creepy…… What’s he gonna do? Make us bury a body? Find him meth? Now that I think about it, I’d rather not know.
Yeah, especially if it was something sexual like-
I’m just gonna tune you out.
You can’t! I’m in your head!
Damn you! Anyways, so Amos decided to take advantage of the fact that Discord was there and ask him to explain why we are turning into ponies. My OC explained this to me already so I only listened to things I didn’t know.
“Pony pony ponyeth, pony ponyeth, pony pony, Dark Ancient evil, pony pony ponyth. Use you as minions, pony pony, ponyth.”
Ok, maybe I did not pay much attention, but atleast I heard the Evil part!
Anyways, while Discord was blabbering, a yellow flash surrounded Alex and, what do you know? Out popped a yellow unicorn mare.
It concerned me though because that meant that the Transformations were speeding up. We had to figure out a cure for this!
Or not. I kind of like being a changeling.
Dammit brain, why?
Discord finally decided to teleport us to Chicago, since the RV was totalled.
<~=O=~>
And now, back to the present…..
We looked around the general area of the Convention Center for hotels to stay at. After around 30 minutes we found a Hilton hotel. Unfortunately, when we entered, the receptionist shook his head, indicating no rooms were left.
This happened for 3 more hotels, and by the 5th hour of looking, we were beginning to give up. I was ready to sleep on the pavement when I noticed a 5 star hotel across one of the streets.
“Anyone up for a 5 star?” I asked, and everyone agreed. I must admit, Alex and I must have been the most tired out of the group, since we had to walk on all fours, and kept falling square on our faces.
Clearly, he was not in the mood for talking, so we just went on our way.
Me and Alex decided to share a room again, and Amos and Ana shared the other one.
And we went to sleep.
<~=O=~>
Don’t tell Chase, but I’ll tell you what REALLY happened.
Let me tell you the story, of two loveponies, named Chase and Alex.
And then-
FINE! I’ll tell them what happened.
I looked at Alex, as we rested on the Queen sized bed. The slight rise and fall of her chest was the only sign she was alive. She looked like a field of daisies, and I liked it. I don’t know why, but it seemed that I had developed feelings for her.
She giggled and opened her eyes.
“When are you gonna stop staring at me?” she asked smiling at me.
“Me-IStare-sorry.” It would seem that my mouth failed at communicating my feelings for her. Dammit.
“No, I’ve seen the way you’ve been looking at me, ever since, I fully transformed. So, I decided to see what you were going to do.”
Ok, I may not have mentioned it, but I looked at her, alot, after she changed. She just looked so pretty!
“s-sorry.” I whispered.
She giggled, “You’re cute, you know that?”
This did not sound like her. I never imagined her saying that to me. It was like a whole new side of her’s was brought into the spotlight for me to see.
And I liked it.
“Eyyyyup!” she said sticking out her tongue at me.
Scratch that, this was a COMPLETELY new side to her. But I loved it.
“Now, go to sleep Chase. You need your rest, you look like crap after the accident.” she said, but the playfulness in her tone remained.
And with that, I fell asleep.
<~=O=~>
I had tiring, and weird dream tonight. My OC met with me, again, and decided that it was time for me to learn how to disguise myself as a pony.
After around 5-6 tried, I finally was able to manage turning into all three races, even an Alicorn!
But, as with all my dreams, it was disrupted as I woke up.
<~=O=~>
I yawned as I woke up, and I heard a squeak next to me. I snapped my head around and saw Alex staring at me. I chuckled a bit before offering to go sit in the lobby and chat.
We sat down in one of the benches in the lobby and began talking immediately.
It wasn’t long before, I found myself flirting with her.
It was awkward flirting at first, until she returned it, and we spent the rest of the night, flirting with each other.
But of course, in the morning, Ana and Amos, came and found us.
<~=O=~>
The walk to the convention center was a pain. Again, Alex and I, kept tripping over our hooves, but we made it there soon enough and we were able to sit down.
The convention center was not full with people, instead only about 30-50 people were there, and they seemed to all be perfectly normal, humans. We looked around for a bit, until we found the front desk.
We went up to it, to find a dark blue pegasus mare, in a stereotypical receptionist outfit, but for ponies, shuffling through papers. We asked her about the convention and she told us that they planned on opening it in two days.
Two days, we had an entire two days to waste! We decided to walk to the Starbucks across the street, order coffee and plan what we were to do.
Alex and I shared a S’mores Frappuccino, while Ana had hot cocoa, and Amos had a latte.
As we were talking we saw Discord pop in and sit down next to a dark brown unicorn stallion, with grey hair, that we could only assume was-
“JOHN DE LANCIE?!!?!”
Interlude: Fun with a lunar goddess.
Author's Note
Sorry I haven’t updated in months! I’ve been so busy with summer school and life that I had to put this story to the side. After 2 broken promises the new chapter is out. Anyways, I should probably just post this and get back to editing some Fics before my huge pile becomes even bigger.
Interlude: Fun with a lunar goddess.
I stood under the moonlight, leaning on a tree. In the distance clouds could be seen, floating in my direction. On one of those clouds was a dark figure watching me as I dream. She hid under my gaze to avoid me noticing but I had seen her already. I ignored her for the time being and decided to let my dream play out. I could hear galloping in the distance, and finally a yellow unicorn mare walked up to me. Alex looked me up and down, and immediately started cussing me out. I was confused, why… why was she doing this?
“You think you’re better than us, don’t you? Well, I’ll bucking show you! I may be a mare but I can throw a punch!” She stood up on her hind legs and started punching me in rapid fire.
Have you ever had a dream that, you felt pain in? Well, this was one of those dreams… Punch after punch after punch, left me bleeding from my nose and mouth. Alex then charged up a huge punch and let loose. I shut my eyes, and …...there was nothing. I looked up and she was gone. Replaced by that shadowy figure that was on the cloud. The figure after around a minute of examining me, changed my dream to show me my home. And then, she revealed herself.
“‘Tis a pleasure to meet with thee, young human, although these may have not been the best of circumstances.” Luna said, trying to act like Celestia. It was obvious that she was not used to being so mature and responsible, and wanted nothing more than to be playful.
“It’s ok Luna. Thank you for stopping that…” I said. She either did not notice that I knew her name, or did not care. She smiled at me, then manifested thousands of pillows around us.
“HUZZAH! THY PRINCESS DECLARES PILLOW-WAR ON THEE!” she said trying to cheer me up. I grinned and grabbed one of the pillows and chucked it at her. She then returned it with 5 pillows being thrown at me by her magic. They were getting harder and harder to dodge by the second. And I did not want to die in a pillow fight! I must never lose!
As if on cue a pillow hit me right in the face, causing me to fall back.
“HUZZAH! WE HATH WON THE FIGHT OF THE PILLOWS!” Luna said before making all the pillows disappear. And in a flash of light, I was a changeling again. Luna came up to me and hugged me before everything started turning white and the dream world started shaking, indicating I was waking up. Luna patted me on the back and left the dream.
And for the first time since this stuff started, I felt happy.
Getting ready for the perfect night
The OC Theory
Chapter Five part 1/3
We all looked at John De Lancie as he gave us a quick glance.
"Why, hello kids! I see you too have been caught up in this mess”.
We were all looking at him like a pack of wolves stares at their pray.
"Well, if it isn't you bunch of little rascals. John, these are those kids I was telling you about.
“Why hello!’ he spoke. “Uhm, are they mute?” he whispered to Discord.
“Not when I spoke to them. Unles-” Discord was cut off by Alex screaming on the top of her lungs.
“OMG IT’S JOHN DE LANCIE!!!!” A squee could be heard in the distance as Alex practically tackled John. His face crimson red, he was smiling the most uncomfortable smile as Alex was coping with her Fan-girl instincts.
And here we see a wild fan girl in her natural habitat. Her pray, the John De Lancie over there is stunned by her behavior, allowing the fan girl to -
Shut the buck up brain. Anyways, after sitting down and calming down, we all had another round of coffee and talked with John De Lancie.
<~=O=~>
The back to the hotel was tedious and long. I don’t know how long we spent walking, only that me and Alex kept falling on our faces. I swear, how Ana got good at walking is beyond me!
When we made it back to the hotel room, me and Alex lied down on the bed and took a nap. I awoke a few minutes later, shaken by the dream I just had, and decided it best to do something. So I just stared at Alex for a few minutes, admiring her beauty. I then changed into a Cyan Alicorn with teal mane and tail. Alex woke up after a few minutes and smiled at me. “hey.”
“Hey” I responded.
“you have something on your mind?”
“Well I was thinking…” I began, and sighed. “I’ve liked you, alot, and even though we are going through this, I'd like to....ask you on a ...date.."
Alex looked at me with a smile. "Sure. So...what did you have in mind?"
I was shocked. She, she actually agreed."Well um..this hotel is supposed to have a good restaurant. "
Alex smiled back at me. "Sure." She said.
After spending sometime getting ready, basically me taking a shower and changing back to Cyan Alicorn with teal man and tail, we knocked on Amos’ door to tell him we would be gone for a bit, and headed down stairs.
<~=O=~>
Surprisingly the restaurant did not need a reservation, and we were seated immediately. We were seated by the window. Since the restaurant was the penthouse of the building, we got a nice view of the dark city below. A red candle was in the middle of table which set the mood for us.
And I have a feeling, that somehow, maybe me and Alex, would be more than friends. Maybe even more, the special someponies. Maybe, just maybe, she would marry me.
Oh really? So what happened with Amos. I saw you staring at his butt the other day.
SHUT THE BUCK UP!

Also, this chapter was not posted yesterday because of a power outage and family problems.
The OC Theory
The stress of all this was finally getting to me. I couldn’t pretend to be Kate for ever.
As we entered the convention center we found the entire center jam packed with people in one room. They seemed to be panicking. We found the receptionist from yesterday running down the hall and we stopped her.
“What's going on? Why is everybody panicking?” I asked still sounding like Kate.
“You didn’t hear! One of the kids from Chicago just vanished off the stage!” She said before galloping away and turning a corner.
“Oh horse apples. Now what? Our only solution to this problem just vanished out of nowhere!” Said Amos.
We started to turn around before we saw a small filly caught in a barrier, and a stallion pounding on the side of it. She was tomato red with green mane and beside her was a small dog. Suddenly a flash happened and we all witnessed her vanish, and the stallion begin to crying.
’Oh crap! Where did she go?!’ asked Kate.
’I have no idea- I was about to finish when suddenly I was also inside a sphere.
“Kate!” Screamed my loyal group of friend.
The shock of suddenly being caught in a pink bubble barrier caused me to drop my disguise. I flailed wildly as everyone else in the convention hall went silent and dropped their heads as they realized what was happening. This was the inevitable end for anyone going through the transformations.
“NO! I can’t go down like this!” I yelled while crawling in a ball.
’Chase, relax. Please. We’ll be fin-’
An explosion sounded and then I was unconscious again. Yay……
Chase. This is the inevitable end for you.
Wait. I’m not unconscious? Or Dead?
Yes to the former. And the latter, it depends on how you perceive it.
What happened to you, brain? So serious all of a sudden. And what’s that supposed to mean?
Chase, I, am your human personality. I represent your life before all this happened. And now, is where I leave. From now on, your OC will guide you, until of course, the true end comes, and then you will be alone to face whatever lies outside of this unconscious state with your friends.
Oh…
Hey, don’t worry about me. I’ll leave a piece of myself in your OC so that he’s not too much of a party pooper.
I’m going to miss you, human Chase.
I will miss you too Chase. Now, I must go. Good luck Chase.
And with that, chase was truly alone. Or was he?
Oh god… what happened?
Kate! You’re here! We fell unconscious. I am just as lost as you.
If I’m speaking to you over the link, even though you’re still unconscious then you must have returned to your body. So now we must ask, why are we not awake?
I don’t know Kate. I don’t know…
[hr /]
Just outside the Crystal Empire’s protection spell, laying on the snow were two changelings. But they were not alone. Three shadows from within the Empire’s spell approached them, a metal clink sounding with each step they took.
“Your highness! We found two unconscious changelings just outside the Empire’s northern side. How should we proceed?” Asked General Lighthoof, a tall, pegasus of the Solar Guard serving for her majesty, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza’s personal guard.
“Bring them to me. I’d like to speak with them when they awake.” Said the Princess herself over a small communicator built into the General’s helmet.
“I have quite a bit to discuss with them.”

The troubles of a dying, but hated race
Author's Note
WARNING! The story takes a slightly more serious shift in this chapter as it transitions from Canon to non-canon, according to the rules of the OTVerse. I've made this change to allow more creative freedom for myself and to enjoy writing this story just a little more. I hope my change to third person, and my new style of writing was a good change. I do appreciate feedback and will gladly listen to any suggestions!
P.S.: I might end up needing a new editor
EDIT: ~~LONGEST CHAPTER I'VE POSTED! Now wait a little longer. I have a pleasant surprise.~~ As of now, Chapter 10 is the longest chapter!
The troubles of a dying, but hated race
The OC Theory
Three guards approached the main entrance to the Crystal Empire's castle.
“At ease” spoke the armored mare as she made her way towards the doors.
On her back was a changeling, dressed in basic linen cloth, hastily thrown on him, to keep him from freezing in the cold of the north. As the doors swung open and the guards on duty all saluted, the captain just rolled her eyes and put them at ease. This was the one part of her job she despised.
Being the highest ranking officer meant that everypony, except the princess and the prince had to salute her on sight. She continued down the hall, the other two guards long forgotten at the main entrance, as they fell back to their original post.
The captain entered the main hall and headed straight for the throne room. As the doors approached she took one more look at the unconscious changeling on her back.
“This is it for you. You’ll be interrogated and then most likely killed….I’m sorry. I’m actually quite fond of your kind…” She sighed before opening the doors to the throne room, and walking in.
The throne room was nothing too majestic, just a big room made of crystal. Two finely crafted thrones sat near the the back, right next to each other. Both were carved out of the finest, purest, and clearest quartz in the land. The captain knew this since her job used to be to tour the empire.
“Where's the other?” Asked Prince Shining Armour as he glared at the changeling, with what appeared to be absolutely no patience.
“They merged sir. We restrained them and then the other one was absorbed into this one.” the captain responded, shooting her own glare back at him for showing no respect to the changeling.
“Very well. Leave him here and report to the test facility. After you are cleared and proven to be a pony, report to your office and leave your ranks and go home. Enjoy the week off you have Captain Prism.”
“Yes Sir! Thank you sir!” She exclaimed and ran straight to the test facility to get cleared.
“You're not going to tell her now that she won’t be returning to her position after her vacation?” said Princess Mi Amore Cadenza as she looked at her husband.
“It’s a surprise sweetie. With the new position and title she will hold, it will be a nice break from being a captain.”
Cadence was about to respond when the changeling started stirring. Both her and Shiny trained their horns onto him. They started charging them, and holding it, building a powerful ball of power at the tips. It was mostly for intimidation as they still needed to interrogate him, but it was nice to ensure cooperation from the beginning. With the disguise of a magical attack, Cadence executed a spell her sister-in law Twilight had made for her, in order to scan the magical abilities of anyone. She fired the spell and waited for feedback. Within no time she had a response, which was incredible, as it took on average 1 minute to respond. The results shook her to the core. This changeling was more powerful than all the alicorns combined.
“Shining, fire it now…” she whimpered in fear to him.
“Wh-Why?” he asked. Although he had a burning hatred for changelings, he wasn’t going to kill one without reason.
“He’s more powerful than all four of us alicorns. We need to fire it now.”
And with that the beam was fired. Chase woke up to see a swirling blue and pink beam the size of the room, heading straight towards him. As if time had slowed, he got off his back, shook himself awake and walked to the throne and sat right next to Cadence.
Time resumed and the beam hit the front doors of the throne room, and obliterated them. Considering they had been crafted from Diamond, that was quite the feat.
“What just happened?” asked Chase, completely lost to the situation.
Cadence let out a shriek and took flight, attaching herself to Shiny, who threw up a shield around them and stared at the changeling like his life depended on not blinking.
“Why are you- oh. Oh! Gimme a second!” Chase said before switching to his OC’s form. As the green flames died down, he smiled from ear to ear, trying to look as harmless as possible.
“Please don’t hurt us! We’ll meet any of your demands!” Shining cowered and scrambled onto his hooves, and ran behind Cadence. “Take her! She’s hotter than me!” he cried and so did Cadence, feeling betrayed.
“I’m not going to hurt you! I’m lost! Oh one sec, the other changeling, Kate, wants to come out...” he began a spell that popped into his head out of nowhere. As Kate began to materialize next to him, the shield dropped and Cadence and Shining fired the same spell they did before.
Chase was flung back, and so was Kate, their screams of terror and pain pierced the air and the entire castle heard. Kate’s newly manifested body, having not yet solidified, burned, her chitin not lasting the hit and her flesh vaporizing until nothing was left of her. Chase lose half of his lower torso and his horn split in half down the middle. As the beam faded, Shiny and Cadence watched in horror as Chase was the only thing left, still alive, screaming in pain, as he fell to the floor. Blood pooled around him until most of the the floor in his vicinity was covered in it.
“Wh-Why?” he stutter through his cries of pain before falling limp and quiet.
“GUARDS! GET THE MEDICAL TEAM HERE NOW! Cadence, send a letter to all the other alicorns and summon them here now!”
As everyone rushed to follow Shiny’s orders, he fell to his side next the the changeling and cried into it’s waist. For the first time since the wedding, he cried, and felt bad, over hurting a changeling.
As the medical team rushed in, it was evident on their faces, that they had little hope for the changeling's survival…
<~=O=~>
Prince Shining Armour paced the only hall of the private hospital inside the castle. His wife, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, sat in a chair next to the door of the ICU, bags under her eyes, and her blinks slow, as she was lost in thought, appearing almost dead.
The sound of hoof steps marching up and down the hallway were the only thing to be heard. They were alone. No one else was allowed in the hospital as it was sectioned off from the Medical section of the castle, so it could service guards and royals only.
The main door was flung open by an infuriated Ex-Captain of the Royal Guard.
“YOU SHOT THE CHANGELING?!?! WHAT THE BUCK KIND OF CORRUPTED GENOCIDAL RULERS ARE THE TWO OF YOU?!?” she yelled into his face, infuriated by the actions of one of the so to speak, ‘Perfect’ rulers.
“..i’m….I’m sorry…..” he cowered as he fell to the floor. It had been 20 hours that the medical team had been attempting to save the Changeling. They brought medical professionals from every corner of Equus, and imported all the documentation Pony kind had on changelings. Yet, it seemed that nothing could speed this up.
Shining Armour did not sleep once in those 20 hours. Every time he blinked he saw the moment replay in his head. At the wedding, it didn’t feel like this. It wasn’t supposed to feel like this…. For all the 2 million changelings they had killed before, it never felt this, painful.
Ex-Captain Prism sat in the seat next to Cadence, looking away from her and at the floor. She was told this happened as it passed down the chain as a rumor. She canceled her vacation entirely. She had carried thousands of changelings into that throne room, and to their inevitable deaths, before this one, feeling equally as sorry for them as she did for this one. Yet, something tugged at her heart when she thought that they killed him.
As Shining completed yet another pace down the hall, the door to the ICU opened, and a young griffon doctor, whose name tag said ‘Ivanov’ spoke.
“Your friend will be fine. Although we do have something to mention…”
Shining practically tackled the doctor to the ground and looked at him like a mad mare.
“What is it!?!”
The doctor began sweating “I assume you already know that this changeling’s magical potency is beyond that of all of the alicorns’. Well, as soon as we repaired the horn, the body began to heal itself. We observed the entire process, documenting more and more about changelings as we witnessed it’s own body using it’s magic to repair what would have been fatal wounds to the average pony, until a misty figure appeared next to him. Another changeling but not fully tangible. As if it were a ghost. When it looked at it’s friend, it gasped showing concern over it, similar to a pony’s concern over their partner’s well being. As it inspected it’s fellow changeling wounds, it seemed to get a sort of, flashback. It fell to the ground, curled into a ball, and began sobbing, and screaming in pain.
“We’ve attempted to coax her out of it but it appears as though it can’t interact with us.”
This left the waiting party somewhat lost. Shining dismounted the griffon, apologized, and trotted into the room, followed by the doctor, and the rest of the party.
What he saw left caused what remained of his heart, to shatter. The friend that the changeling had spoken of, Kate, was curled in a ball on the floor, sobbing. The same changeling that he had vaporized with his magic….
He ran up to her and cuddled her, his touch seeming to cause her to become tangible, and real. She gasped before seeing the pony that had killed her cuddling her. At first she panicked and squirmed, but his strong embrace of comfort, repentance, and great sorrow, calmed her down, as she returned the embrace and cried into his shoulder.
Cadence watched this behavior, not feeling jealous over the fact that Shining was paying attention to a changeling, but rather, disappointed with herself for not being the first to offer comfort to the changeling.
Instead, she decided to check on the other changeling in the room. She glanced on top of the bed, to find it empty. She gasped in alarm and looked around the room in a panicked haze. Had the changeling sensed her and awoken, preparing to strike and get it’s revenge? She looked everywhere, until she felt a wing on her back and turned to find Prism, one wing over Cadence’s back to calm her, and the other around the changeling from before, that was crying into her embrace.
“He remembers the words I told him before entering the throne room, and he’s glad that I’m here.”
Cadence felt her heart sink. Yet another pony- er...changeling, that she had inflicted pain and suffering upon, and failed to comfort. Just as she felt her eyes water, she looked up to see both Prism and the Changeling hugging her. She felt their breath against her fur, the warmth of their embrace, and the beating of all their hearts. She hung her head and cried into the embrace.
<-~=O=~->
Tears shed, and hugs exchanged, the group checked out of the hospital with two new changelings. Shining led the party to the royal diners hoping to get a meal and apologize and offer mentor ship to the changelings.
In the back of the group Prism sighed. Her rainbow mane and tail floating gently in the wind, her cyan coat contrasting, yet blending with the teal tinted crystal floors. Her cyan wings, strong enough to take out an army, yet soft enough to comfort an injured and lost changeling.
These are the details Princess Celestia and Luna took note of as they sat in the void, and observed the group. Little did the entire group know, that the cosmic forces had a few plans in store for them….
“Soon sister, our ponies shall learn the destiny that awaits them….”
“I can only hope they do well….”
“Thou must relax sister. We art certain that our ponies shall prove themselves capable of handling their new positions in life….”
“I hope…”

Chapter 10
As we sat down in the dinner, we heard a bell chime. One of the hundreds of servers came up to us wearing a cute little black vest, and holding a notepad and pen in her magic.
After retrieving our order, she ran to the back. Cadence and Shiny apologized again for the misunderstanding.
“Again, I am so sorry this happened.” Shining lowered his head in sorrow as his wife continued voicing her apologies.
“Don't worry too much about it! We're both fine now! No harm done.” I tried to comfort them.
Just then, a shriek was let out by one of the guards. We all turned our heads to find Captain Prism floating off the ground, her eyes a pure white. Soon enough I saw Shining Armour do the same.
“Behold, by the light of sun, and serenity of night, we pronounce thee, Prism, to be the Alicorn of light.”
Suddenly a horn sprouted from Prism’s forehead and she was lowered to the ground, unconscious. Then Shining Armour seemed to glow brighter, presumably due to the attention of this cosmic force being on him now.
“And thou, Shining Armour. Thou art to be the first stallion Alicorn Equestria hath seen, in two millennium. We pronounce thee, to be the Alicorn of protection, the guardian of all of our dearest ponies. Both thou, and Prism, shall receive titles, befitting of royalty. Thou can come and claim them, later in the day, from Celestia and Luna, Alicorns of Day and Night.”
Suddenly Shining was unconscious on the ground as well.
“And of course, Chase, don't think we hath forgotten thee. Hm…. Chase does not suit a changeling….How about Reminiscence? It shall work marvelously. Thou, and thy companion, needeth not envy the apotheosis of thy friends. As changelings, thy power lies in a similar field as to alicorns. The only real difference is that Alicorns must have a set skill. Thou needst not bind thyself to only one skill. Thy companion, as well as thou, hast been bestowed a title befitting of royalty. We hope thou cometh and claim it from the Alicorns of Day and Night. Alas, we hath more business to attend to. Farewell.”
And with that, the mysterious, voice that seemed to have been there only to act as the exposition to a really bad fanfiction plot, vanished. Cadence looked at us and smirked at the sight of her unconscious husband. He actually looked really cute, the way he was just sprawled out, and drooling, mumbling things about pancakes and waffle monsters, and by the first egg, that sweet flank of his! My, my, so round, and tight and…..uhm…. That did not just happen.
Indeed.
Why hello there convenient mental construct that explains the story as we go along.
<~=O=~>
A while later, once all the party was awake, we decided that the best decision would be to get on a train to canterlot, and find out what this was all about. Equestria just gained 4 new Royals, two alicorns, and the first male alicorn, in 24 hours. (Technically three royals, one was already Prince by extension, but regardless.) There has to be some explanation, right..?
As we left the diner, we grabbed our food and brought it with us to the train. As we boarded, we were provided with a deluxe cart, just for us. Of course, this was only because of Cadence. Shining and Prism both had to conceal themselves. As for me and Kate, well, we just chose to disguise ourselves as Royal Guards.
“I wonder what titles they have in mind for us. Surely we won’t all become Princesses/Princes?” asked Kate
I shake my head, just barely listening as I stare out the window contemplating the recent events.
The train kept moving, and shaking, moving, and shaking, and
I passed out.
<~=O=~>
I was standing in a field, watching the moon rise. As the moon rose over the horizon, Princess Luna approached me with a smile on her face.
“Ah, Chase, thou art quite the changeling.”
I blush and look at her, “You are quite the mare yourself~”
She blushes and looks back at me, smiling with a mischevious grin as she approached closer. She stands right next to me, her head against mine, her tongue stuck out, and her hoof playing with a tuft of fur on my chest. (Since when do I have fur….?)
“How about we, go somewhere more…. Pleasant~?”
I blush greatly and notice that the scenery has changed and that we were now in a bedroom of a log cabin. A nice yellow glow of a fireplace, warmth that could put you to sleep...it was perfect. Gently she stepped in front of me and pushed me back into the bed, sitting ontop of me. The warmth of her flank on my lap, made me blush even harder. She then leaned in with a goofy, almost drunk grin, her lips puckered as her face grew in my vision. She reached my lips and gently planted a kiss on then, eliciting a gentle gasp from me. She took advantage of this and nibbled on my lower lip, gently massaging it with hers. With a small pause and a breath, she dived in, kissing me deeply, mouth right against mine, almost as though she were trying to eat mine. Her tongue, reaching into my mouth, feeling for mine, as her eyes were sealed tightly, nervousness leaking from her aurora.
Something about this whole situation, the mood of the room, her aura, and the setting, sent my mind into a frenzie. I was lost, in this state of absolute confusion, yet bliss. Not knowing what to do, I leaned in deepening the kiss, my tongue joining her, wrestling hers as we both closed our eyes out of nervousness. As our tongues danced, Luna gently pushed her hips into mine and slowly-
<~=O=~>
With a start I woke up, my head sore from hitting the window of the train as it pulled into Canterlot. Feeling myself quite….bothered… I excused myself for a restroom break before we got off the train.
What was happening to me? Why did I just dream about making out with Princess Luna?
Shining Armour, Cadence, and Prism were requested to visit Celestia’s personal chambers. Kate and I, as I suspected, were summoned to Luna’s quarters.
I could already tell this was gonna be justttt greaatttt
Shut up, you know you’ve always had a thing for Luna.
As we entered her quarters we found the room empty, and upon looking around we discovered a note on the bed instructing Kate to go to the Library, and me to stay here.
With Kate now gone, I took a look around, not noticing much about the room, other than the fact that it was almost completely dark. I did however notice a fireplace in the corner, and I ran to go light it. With that done, I looked round and what I saw both flustered me, and left me speechless.
THIS WAS THE SAME ROOM FROM MY DREAM.
At that moment, as if to make it worse, I noticed Princess Luna, laying on her bed, her regalia on the nightstand beside it, and her hooves covered up, by black and blue striped socks.
This of course sent me into a stumbling, blushing, and HIGHLY confused mess. My wings buzzed and my disguise dropped instantly, as I just stared at her. I started breathing heavily as she got up and approached me. She immediately closed her eyes, puckered her lips, and neared me, inches away from my lips. I closed my eyes and started sweating, my heart beating WAY too fast. I braced for impact and then…..nothing came?
I heard laughter and opened my eyes to find both Kate and Princess Luna on the floor laughing. She was still wearing her socks, but she no longer looked like she wanted me. Kate too was wearing socks, matching her Pegasus Disguises colors.
I puffed my cheeks and sat on my flank, fore hooves crossed, and a very unamused face.
“Ha ha very funny…. Now stop..”
After recomposing themselves, the two of them got up and Luna looked serious.
“To make this quick, as we would like to speak to thee privately Reminiscence, thy titles are now Prince and Princess of Equestria. We expect thee to use these in public, and act as moderators to Equestria, and the rest of the world. Alas, Kate, could Reminiscence and I speak in private?”
Kate huffed before walking out, retreating to the library.
“Finally, I can drop this dialect. So annoying…”
I blanked as I realized she didn’t actually speak that way, and only used it in front of people she was uncomfortable with. Speaking of…
“How come you can speak normally around me?”
She shifted weirdly before looking into my eyes.
“From the moment you entered this Universe, I’ve been watching you and Kate, and as I entered your dream-scape I noticed you had a thing for me. I decided to look into your memories and what I saw, shocked me. Your Magical potential, wasted on a planet in which no one can use magic. You academic genius, unused, so that you may satisfy your hunger for amusement. And lastly, your heart, open and warm, the only potential that you seem to have realized. You welcome everyone into your heart, no matter their age, sex, personality, and appearance You are friends with everyone and treat everyone well. These traits have led me to find you...more than perfect for a companion. And well, being a changeling you are one of the only companions I could hope to be with for the rest of my life, as both of us, possess immortality. I know it’s too much to ask, seeing your feelings for Alex, Kate, and Amos, but I ask you, would you please consider, me, or rather, us, being together?”
She pulled out a box from her nightstand, and opened it, as she bend over, almost as if she was a human, prostrating for me, looking up, with wide eyes, and a gentle, kind, warm smile on her muzzle.
“Will you Reminiscence, Prince of Equestria, court us?” she said, slipping back into her Early Modern English(Equestrian?) Dialect.
I began to shift uncomfortably but got it under control. Although I was HIGHLY uncomfortable at the moment, I didn’t want to send mixed signals, or signals that I didn’t mean. I took a second to consider it and weigh the pros and cons, which judging from her patience, and continued pose and smile, she was willing to give.
She was a beautiful mare, an amazing body, but in the end, the personality matters more, doesn’t it? She was kind, loving, caring, and she knows what isolation and loneliness feels like. If anyone knows what if feels like to be ignored, or lacking love, it’s her. She always respects her ponies, and will do anything she can to keep them safe. She has patience, and she has wisdom. She was the perfect mare. And she loved me.
But do I return these feelings? Do I feel love for her? I mean, I’ve always had a thing for her. I took a second to think back on my love for Alex and Kate, and I realized that my love for Alex, was merely my changeling form craving love. However, my love for Kate was slightly deeper rooted. She was the first changeling I met, and having been in her body, she felt the same way I feel for her. But...I wasn’t sure if I was ready to be with her. What if it was just that? Nothing but love for the first changeling I met?
I settled. I was going to ask Luna to invite Kate into our relationship, if at a later time, I felt this way for Kate.
I looked down at Luna, her eyes brightening as I looked down into the box. Inside lay three things. A book of ancient magic, dark magic, light magic, and all other kinds. On top of said book, lay neatly folded socks, in a color scheme that I could help but enjoy. Black and lime green. And on top of that, lay a crown. Neither wide, nor tall. It was around the size of a small Tuna Can, made of solid Onyx, and it had a white moon, similar to Luna’s cutie mark, only it seemed to fade every now and then almost like a memory…. Then I looked at the box it self. It was a wooden one, made of a dark oak, with intricate designs and Luna’s cutie mark on the top.
I lifted the box in my magic, and put the socks on, and wearing the crown on my head, with the book, on my back, the box, in front of me in my magic.
“I, would be honored to court thee, Luna, Princess of the night sky and the Moon~”
She smiled widely and stood at her full height, which now that I thought about it, I had grown to be equal size with her, and she leaned forward and kissed me. The kiss seemed to last forever, her love flowing into me and feeding me passively, as my mind was fuzzy and distracted, by my love, and my spouse, kissing me.
After a perceived eternity, she pulled away, smiling at me.
“Very well Reminiscence, I will send you an invitation to Canterlot in a few days, so that we can plan our Wedding, and our future. For now, go, meet the others in the Library, and get something to eat.”
She hoofed me a small bag of bits, and I realized… do Royals have a salary? Soon I’ll have bills to pay and a family to support!
“After you and your friends eat, I have bought you a house in Ponyville. It’s more of a small mansion, and it’s right next to Twilight’s Castle. Go, settle, and I’ll see you in a few days, my love~”
She planted a soft and warm kiss on my lips, and I smiled in return. I didn’t care to remove these socks and crown. I put the book in the box, and placed it on my back, as I walked out of the room, the doors closing behind me.
Maybe Equestria won’t be that bad….

So, after the date yesterday, and since we still had one more day until the Convention opened, we decided to spend the day in the hotel room. We let Amos and Ana enter our room and we all just sat down and played truth or dare for the morning.
But of course all good things must come to an end, so we finally decided to go have ourselves some breakfast at the local iHop.
As the waiter was seating us, we noticed that 90% of the people there were ponies.
I guess all the other Pony Morphers decided to do the same as us…
Pony Morphers? You know what, I’m not even mad at you. Anyways, we all sat down and Amos started talking.
“So, I already know what I’m getting, what about you guys?” he asked.
“I’m not sure, I think I’ll get the Strawberry Banana nut pancake.” I said, with a smile as our waitress who also happened to be a pony, showed up. She was a light blue pegasus mare with lime green mane and red eyes. She looked like she was having the best day of her life with the big grin on her face. “So, one Banana nut pancake for the handsome changeling.” She said with a wink. How did she know what I was?
I focused on looking at her and what I found shocked me. If I focused on her form for more than a few seconds, I could see that she was also a changeling.
“What………” I said dumbfounded. The pegasus looked at me with a smug grin.
“I was shocked the first time, as well.” She admitted as she turned her head to Amos, Alex and Ana.
“Uh…… I think all three of us will just get a french toast.”
“Alright! I’ll have those right out for you.”
And not a second later, the food was out.
“HOW!?!?” We all yelled.
“You see, our cooks almost all became unicorns, so now, after some trial and error, we have maximized efficiency!" She said with an excited grin, clapping her hooves together as all four of us stared at her.
"I'm...not that surprised really." Said Amos. "If levitation and magic in general were useful for everything else, why not cooking?"
"Yup!” Exclaimed the pegasus mare.
When everyone finished eating we payed, got up and headed outside to plan for the day. As we were talking I noticed that for some reason I could here some sort of chit chat around us even though we were alone outside. Then I heard a voice that sounded, slightly like the pegasus ‘changeling’ mare. So I decided to go ahead and try something. I focused intently on the voice and visualised a tunnel to it in my mind, and then I spoke through my mind.
Hello?
I felt shock for some reason, but it came from the same place as the sound, and I could taste something strong and sour for a second. After a while the feeling stopped and I heard my response.
h-hello?[/I] said the voice in my head. It sounded a lot like the pegasus mare.
Are you the waitress changeling from earlier?
Yes? Are you the changeling that ordered a banana nut pancake? My name is Kate by the way.[/I]
Truth be told, her uniform, although it had been adapted for wear by a four legged creature, had no name tag, so I was not able to find out her name.
Yup, that's me. Name is Chase. I heard some background noise and had the idea that we might have formed a link.
Huh, interesting. So… what are you guys doing the rest of today?
We were gonna go check on the progress at the convention center, want to come along? I asked, more than happy to make a new friend.
Sure! Lemme just tell my boss and we can meet up at the convention center.
Sounds good! I responded and ran to catch up with the others who left me after thinking I went crazy.
<~=O=~>
“So let me get this straight, you two were able to communicate with each other, through a link which neither of you has any clue how it was formed, and arrange to meet up here?”
“All the while not even questioning how the link formed?” Alex finished Amos’ question.
“Yes!” We both replied, clapping our hooves together while grinning ear to ear.
“And now they’re synchronized. What else, freaking mind control?” joke Amos as me and Kate both got a little nervous and glanced at each other.
’Oh crap. What if we can mind control?!? They will think we’re trying to enslave them, and they’ll lose all trust in us!’ I exclaim over the link.
Buck, you might be right. Well then, how ‘bout you try it on me right now? Just… don’t do anything stupid, or suspicious, and try not to let them figure out you’re mind controlling me. She glances at me and nods slightly, so as not to raise suspicion.
Here goes nothing…. I begin to focus hard, imagining my mind being pushed over the link and taking control over Kate.
*THWUMP*
OH GOOD JOB CHASE! BET IF I, YOUR BRAIN, WAS IN CHARGE, WE WOULD NOT HAVE FALLEN UNCONSCIOUS!
Just shut the buck up.
<~=O=~>
I slowly return to consciousness hearing Ana, Alex, and Amos yelling Kate’s name.
I peeled my eyes open and raised my hoof to my forehead, to find that it was now light blue. And that Ana, alex, and Amos were yelling at me, using Kate’s name.
Slowly I lift my head and looked around. I could not find Kate anywhere.
Oh god… my head. It hurts so much.
I jumped to my feet and looked around. I could not find Kate anywhere.
Kate? I asked over the link.
Hey Chase. How did the Mind control thing go? I think I was unconscious for it.
I start getting a bad feeling in my stomach, and I glance down to confirm my suspicion. I was in Kate’s body. And the worst part? Mine was nowhere to be found.
Don’t panic, but I think I’m controlling your body, and you are just feeling what I am. And I can’t find my body…
Oh....Oh no. Can we undo this?!? What if we get stuck like this! Is this how Luna felt!? I don’t want to be stuck like this!
I looked up at the still worried group of friends.
“Hey guys. What happened?” I said sounding just like Kate.
“Kate! You’re alright! Chase vanished into a cloud of smoke and then you fell unconscious. Is he ok? Do you know what happened to him?!” Asked Alex, clearly concerned for Chase’s, er…, my, well-being.
I opened my mouth to answer her when Kate spoke up.
I don’t think you should tell them. We don’t need them panicking with us….
I see your point….
“Yes! He spoke to me over the link! He’s fine! He will be back shortly.” I turn and look up the stairs looking toward the main door to the convention center. “Shall we?”
Stupid Chase. This is why you use protection- er… fail safes.
Shut up Brain.
