Jeremy Fitzgerald's life in Equestria

You awake suddenly, realizing you fell asleep sometime before six AM. You quickly pick up the tablet on the desk, to wind up the music box. However, you notice the clock on the wall says it is seven-thirty AM. You take a moment to remember who you are. Your name is Jeremy Fitzgerald, the night guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. You are a peach-colored pegasus with a brown mane. You yawn, still very tired. Might as well go back to sleep.

As you close your eyes, you hear somepony trot down the hall. You sigh, and re-open your eyes.

"Hello. Who are-" You start, then see a pegasus mare with a cyan coat, and a rainbow mane. Your heart beats faster, as you stare into her rose colored eyes. She is beautiful. Then you see your boss come next to her.

"This is your new partner. I'll let her introduce herself to you. She'll be working the nightshift with you." He says, then continues. "We need you to work a sixth night this week... Sorry about that." With that, he walked back down the hall.

"Hello, Fitzgerald. That is your name, right?" She asks, and you nod. " Okay, my name is Rainbow Dash, and I'll be working the nightshift with you." You nod again. "Well, we can talk more while going on a quick fly around Ponyville."

You forgot entirely that your wings where clipped, and get up from your chair.

"Sure! I love flying!" You exclaim, following her to the exit, but your boss stops you.

"Hey, don't forget your pay for the week, Jeremy." He says, giving you a small bag of bits. You know exactly how many bits were in the bag, one-hundred. You thank him and take the bag.

After that you leave the pizzeria, both you and Rainbow spread your wings. She takes off, not very far, and you try to flap you wings, but get no lift. Now you remember your wings were clipped on night one. Rainbow lands, looking at you in concern.

"Why aren't you flying? You said you love to fly." She asks, and you sigh.

"My wings were clipped on Monday..." You reply, tears beginning to fill your eyes as you sat on your hunches. Rainbow's face turns into one of horror.

"Who did that to you?!" She demands.

"I'll tell you once we get to somewhere with less ponies." You reply, tears still streaming from your eyes. She gives you a hug, making you stop crying.

"Just tell me. I'll bring them to justice." She said in a calm voice.

"It was the animatronics..." You say. "They, for some reason, keep trying to kill me."

"Okay. I'll make sure they stay away from you tonight. Anything else that is wrong?" She asks, still hugging you.

"I only still have this job because I need it! I have no home, no friends, no family, nopony!" You say beginning to sob again. You now noticed something you earlier failed to notice, she's flying, you in her hooves. You look over your shoulder, to see you are nearing a cloud house that you assume is her house.

In less then a minute, you reached the destination and had stopped your sobbing. While it wasn't the same as flying, it was close enough to help you feel better. She sets you down as she lands, being sure to be gentle, as too not hurt you passed what you already were. You follow her into the house.

"You said you don't have a home, right?" Rainbow asked. You nod. "So... Where have you been sleeping?"

"The security office. They let me sleep there all day." You reply. "It isn't comfortable, but it is better than sleeping on the streets. Trust me, I know." You look at a clock on the wall of her home. Twelve forty-five. When you look back at Rainbow, you see she has made you a sandwich. You smile and take it, slowly eating it as she makes herself one. Once you both finished with lunch, she spoke to you.

"Well, Jeremy, you may stay here. I have a guest bedroom."

"Thanks, How many bits for the help you've been giving me?" You ask. It genuinely surprised her.

"None at all. Jeremy, you just got your pay for the week, and that is one-hundred bits! You can't afford to pay me, and even if you could, this is not something you have to pay for. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Friends help each other out." You ponder what she said for a moment. She called you a friend? You, Jeremy Fitzgerald, have a friend?!

"W-we're... Friends? I haven't had a friend since I was a foal..." You know when you where growing up, you were a human up until a year ago. But you said 'foal' to not confuse her.

"Oh, you poor stallion! Nopony deserves to not have friends!" She says, instantly pulling you into a warm embrace. You hug her back. While the hug only lasted a short while, it seemed like it was longer then the nightshift, only you would chose this over the nightshift any day. You yawn as she breaks the embrace. She seems to take notice of that, and begins walking down the hall.

"Come on, I'll show you to your room for today." She said, leading you to a beautifully furnished bedroom. You walk over to the bed, and plop down on it. Even though she knows you are still awake, she tucks you into the amazingly comfortable bed. You can't stop yourself from drifting off to sleep.
