WAY Out of place

"Hey where's Twi?" I asked.

"She said she was gonna check on Pinkie." Spike said hopping up to the couch.

"Great, then I guess I'm going there. You two behave, got it?"

"Yeah, yeah." Kian groaned.

I went back through the main library out the door. "Time to say my sorry's to Pinkie. Woop-de-fuckin'-do!"

"Christ, do we really have to?" The Pegasus asked.

"Yes, we do. Now shut the fuck up, you're causing me enough trouble."

"A'ight, m'out." He said trotting off.

"Where the fuck are you going?" I asked.

"Anywhere but there, I mean shit dude, that pink one must be on coke or retarded...or both."

"Geez, somebody took a turn for the bleakest."I breathed a sigh of relief. "At least he's gone." It finally hit me that there was quite a few ponies around me and only I could see or hear him. I trotted off, trying to ignore the stares and make way through town. "First I make an ass of myself, now I'm talking to the Pegasus that only I can see. Good god, if I was still a human people would think I was shrooms or something."

"Seriously man, where the fuck are we?" A familiar voice asked to an unseen other.

I stopped dead in my tracks, eyes widening. "Aw fuck."

"Let me think bro, that huge Unicorn said something about a Ponyville. There's a shit ton a horses, so this must be it."

"She also said that a friend would be here, then her horn starting glowing all gold and shit, them we were over there."

I slowly turned to see an orange Pegasus with a shaggy dark red mane beside a dark brown Mule.

"I think we can officially say, this is the trippiest shit ever. Dude look, there's colorful horses everywhere man. What the fuck did we get into last night?" The Pegasus asked.

"Since were both seein' it; it's the same thing. Shit man, I'm a fuckin' burro. I don't know what the fuck I'd have that would do this." The Mule said as they walked in my direction looking around.

"Whatever it is, it's some strong shit." The Pegasus said looking in my direction.

I sighed and stared down at the ground with irritation. "These guys, perfect."

"Why do I feel like I know that one?"

I walked toward them, head low. "I really hate you guys."

They both looked at each other with raised brows then back to me. "Bro, another one's talkin' to us."

"Wait, wait, wait!" The Pegasus said patting the Mule's shoulder. "Check it!" He pointed a hoof to my left foreleg.

The Mule stared at my leg with a slackened jaw. "Qué carajo?"

"James?" The Pegasus asked with a surprised smile. "Holy shit, he's here too!"

"Will the both of you shut up?!" I snapped. "Jesus mother fuck, first all that shit now you two, oh come the fuck on."

"That's him alright." Mule said nodding.

"So, all three of us are here. Time for shit to get torn up." The Pegasus smiled.

"No, no, no, you two are very much not going to tear any shit up."

"No buzz killing muchacho." The Mule said smugly.

"Okay first of all, why the hell are you here?" I asked.

"That huge Unicorn thing said something about us staying here." The Pegasus answered.

"Oh, they're the two more arrivals. Great."

"I'd say it's about time for a house warming party" The Mule said looking to the Pegasus.

"Oh, I do have to agree. Let the kick ass party begin."

"Nope, no partying." I said sternly.

"Why?"

"Because you two having a party by your standards is not going to be at all good for anyone. You see that big tree back there?" I asked pointing back at the library a ways.

"Yeah."

"Go there and don't break anything. I've got shit to deal with right now." I said continuing my way to Sugar Cube Corner.

"Whatever."

I walked through the door of the bake shop looking for Twi. She stood by the main counter talking to Pinkie Pie.

"So you're just fine now?" Twilight asked.

"Yep." The ecstatic pink mare said trotting out the kitchen with a tray of cupcakes.

"I shouldn't expect anything less from you by now." Twilight sighed.

"Sorry to interupt, Twi, we've got a big problem." I said walking into the conversation.

"Why what's going on?" Twilight asked.

"Hey, you still need to apologize for last night." Pinkie said as her head popped up from behind her.

"I'm sorry, Twi, you remember Jeremy and Justin?"

"Yes, why?" She asked confusedly.

"And you remember the letter you got this morning?"

"Yes. Wait where are you going with this?"

I stared grimly at her.

"Don't tell me." She said as her ears drooped.

"They're here." I said as my head hung low.

"Who's here? More ponies?" Pinkie asked now behind me.

"Ignore the peanut gallery lad." I thought to myself. "They're at the library right now.

"With Kian and Spike?" Twi asked as her eyes widened.

It suddenly hit me how stupid of an idea it was to tell them to go there. "Shit."

Both of us with the same mind set, started for the door.

We walked through the door together nervously. I trotted through the main library into the living room to see Jeremy and Justin on either side of Kian on the floor in front of the couch.

"Nice." Justin said nodding.

"At least everything's in one piece." I sighed.

"Well that's good." Twilight said from beside me.

Jeremy patted Justin the shoulder and cocked his head in my direction. Justin looked and turned back to Jeremy with a smirk.

"Spike." Twilight called out.

"Right here." He said walking back from the kitchen with a small bowl of gems. "Y'know Twi, two weeks of you being gone gave me a lot of free time. You haven't done any studying since you got back so I haven't had anything to really do. Don't take it the wrong way, I love not having to sweep and organize books as much as the next dragon. I mean, Rarity even let me stay with her for the while."

"Well, at least you enjoyed the time off too." She said with a soft smile. "So how was Applejack's?" She asked turning to me.

"It was alright." I said trying not to think about it.

"Yeah, it was awesome." The grey Pegasus I kept seeing said from my opposite side. "This guy got buried in apples and had a panic attack." He said, as though he expected Twi to hear him.

"Fuck you." I thought to him. "So what have you been doing?"

"Just some reading, then I decided to check on Pinkie. That wasn't the greatest apology you know."

"I was in a hurry." I said innocently.

"Next time you see her, give her a real one." She sighed.
