Prologue

The fast and the Fluttershy
Prologue
A familiar ringtone echoed through your house, the smartphone lighting and vibrating as it played it’s tune.

You picked it up, slided the green circle to it rightful place to answer it.

‘This is Anon.’ You answered, a smile appearing on your face when you hear the voice on the other side of the line.

‘If I want to race tonight?’ you asked with a wicked grin. ‘You still owe me money from the last race, you’re that desperate to lose more on me?’

you chuckle softly as you are hearing out your best friend’s attempt to assure you that you’ll get the money after this race.

Frankly, you didn’t care about the money he still owed you, his friendship was the only thing you wanted from him.

But that didn’t mean you like to hear him squirm every one in a while, that’s just you being a good friend.

‘Alright, alright,’ You finally said, interrupting your friend’s endless babbling. ‘at what time is the race?’

‘At midnight?’ you asked, looking at the clock. It stood at half past eleven. ‘where is it?’ you nodded to the answer. ‘the same place as usual? Ok, I’ll be there.’ You pressed the red bar on the phone and walked to the closet.

Opening it, you go for the little safe to unlock it, in side lay a set of car key’s and two stacks of money.

You take the set of key’s and one stack of money, after closing the safe and locking it, you made your way to the garage under your house and flicked on the lights of said space.

there, under a special sheet, stands the car your goanna use tonight.

You unbuckle the sheet and remove it from the car, revealing the shining red paint-job.

It is a American super car, the emblem of a serpent on the hood was glistening in the light.

the only thing different from a stock car was the tuning done to the V formed, ten cylinder engine and also swapped the shock absorbers with other, better ones to lower the car closer to the ground, also to give more stability through the corners.

It took you a few years of racing to get the money you needed to get this car and getting it to this state.

You opened the drivers side door and tike the seat behind the wheel, strapping your self in you pushed on the button of the garage door’s remote to open it.

When the door is halfway open, you put the key’s in the ignition and turning it clockwise.

With a big rumble, the engine roared to live, the sound echoing through the garage.

The garage door is now open all the way, so you step on the clutch peddle with your left foot and pushing the stick shift in to first gear.

You slightly push the gas peddle down with your right, making the engine roar, while slowly decreasing the pressure on the clutch and making the car creep forward, leaving the garage.

Once out side, you stop the car in order to close the garage door.

When that’s done, you started to drive towards the place the race is being held.

---------------------------->>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<--------------------------------------------

You see most of the regulars standing next to there car’s, boasting about the new thing’s they did to their car’s since last time of course.

you wasn’t like that, because the only thing that mattered was the one who finished first.

That and the fact you didn’t need to say a word to let people know what you’ve done to your car, because the car can speak for itself.

With a Wicket grin, you push down the clutch and a second after the gas peddle, letting the engine utter a loud roar, making every one look your way.

When you stopped in front of the group, you see your friend walking towards you with a raised eyebrow.

He hasn’t seen you with your new ride yet, so you wait until he’s closer before you stepped outside.

‘Anon?’ he said when he recognized you. ‘damn man, it’s good to see you again!’

He hold’s his hand in front of him with a smile.

You grab his hand with yours, both pulling each other closer for a hug.

‘Its good to see you too.’ You say with a smile, you ended the hug and turned your face as neutral as you could ‘Now, where’s my money?’

Before he could answer, another presence made itself known.

‘Aw, young love.’ Said a mocking female voice. ‘Hey there Anonymous, where did you get the cash to buy that ride?’ she finished, pointing at your car.

You gave her a knowing look while staring into her eyes ‘Well, since I don’t have a girlfriend, I could keep all the money for myself and not spend it on her. Because of that, I could buy this car so I could beat you even harder on the tarmac.’

‘yeah, yeah,’ She said, waving your words away. ‘let’s see how you do with that thing in the race.’ With that she walked back to the other racers.

you smiled at your friend and followed after her.

‘Hey there Anon,’ A deep southern voice said. ‘nice of you to join. alright, here’s the deal. We're with eight racers, so were gonna split in two groups and that means one race per group, oké?’

everyone nodded.

‘Anon,’ He continued. ‘since you are the last to arrive, do you mind being in the last group? The rest are already put together.’

You shrug. ‘Fine by me, now how about telling us the course of the race.’

The others nodded in agreement and the course was explained to you.

‘Ok, now that is out of the way,’ You said. ‘what are the stakes?’

’It’s five thousand to enter the race,’ Said the same guy as before. ‘so pay up and let’s race!’

After the money was exchanged, was the first racers made there way to the starting line with their cars.

As the other spectators go look at the race about to start, you walked toward your car, you take a seat on the hood of the car before lowering your back on it and with your hand behind your head.

As you gaze up into the night sky, you hear the increasing sound of footsteps coming towards you.

You kept your gaze to the sky as the footsteps stopped, by your guess, in front of you.

‘Your friend is in the first race isn’t he?’ An unknown silk and sweet female voice said. ‘Aren’t you going to watch?’

‘Nope,’ You said without looking at her. ‘Starts and finishes of other races I’m not in don’t concern me, so I’m ganna lie here until it’s my turn to race.’

‘Oh, ok,’ she said with a sound of disappointment that makes you look toward her. ‘I thought it would be fun to watch it together.’

With that, she walked off toward the car’s that are revving up their engines for the starting of the race.

you brought yourself up on your elbows and watch her for awhile before lying back on the hood again.

Nice going anon, you thought to your self, a girl is showing interest in you and you kick her to the curve.

well, in your own defence, she was the one that left before you could chance your mind.

In the distant you hear the loud roar of the engines and squealing of tires, the race has started.

---------------------------->>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<--------------------------------------------

After almost three minutes, above the incoming car sounds, you can hear the cheers of the spectators and a few seconds later followed by loud shouting and applause mixed with the sound of car’s slipping and skidding to a halt.

you pealed yourself off the hood of the car and made you way to the cheering crowd.

you didn’t have to wait long to find out who won the race, because you saw your friend coming at you with a large stack of money in his hand and a large grin on his face.

Stopping in front of you, he grabs your hand and places some of the money on it.

“Now I don’t have to listen to your nagging about the money I still owed you.’ He said with a smile as he closed your hand around the small pile of money.

You brought your arm around his back and pulled him in for a quick hug, ‘You know you had al the time in the world to pay me back right?’ you said.

He nodded, ‘yeah, I know. But it feels better this way.’

You smile at him before making your way toward you car. ‘now its my turn to give it my all.’

With that you stepped into your car and drives toward the starting line.

---------------------------->>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<--------------------------------------------

You’re staring at the black tarmac before you, next to you are the three other car’s that were lined up and awaiting the start of the race.

A girl on very hi heels made her way to the middle of the road and to stand there facing the cars in frond of her, ‘ready!’ she yelled, pointing at each car in the line and getting a roar of the engines as answer to her question.

she then pulled a peace of cloth from her top and lift it strait in the air.

Knowing what the sign meant, you and the other drivers revved up there engines to get ready for the best possible start.

You kept the makeshift flag in the corner of you eye, as the majority of your site kept to the road ahead.

As the girl waved the cloth around in the air, you lowered your hand on to the gear shift knob and let your left foot closely hover over
the clutch peddle.

The cloth went down with a swoop and you immediately press in the clutch, slide the gear shift in to first gear, releasing the clutch and pressing the gas peddle all the way in, making the car launch forward. All that was done in less then a second and the race was off.

As you shift the transmission of the car into the next gear, you take a slide moment to look at your adversaries next to you and see, to your own satisfaction, that you had the better start and ahead by half a car.

Also, before putting you focus back on to the road, that your slowly gaining more distance from the rest.

While increasing your speed and lead, your able to get in front of the car that’s now in second place. In the distance you see the first turn coming at you and by the look of it, it looks like a pretty sharp one.

You slow down few feet before the corner, shifting from hi gear to second. Steering in to the corner, using the best race line you can think of to get thro the bent as fast as possible.

Nearing the end of the bent you step on the gas and speed up again, already seeing the next turn already coming your way.

You take a quick glance in your rear-view mirror to see that the rest of the racers fell a little more behind as they them self left the previous turn. Putting your attention back the road ahead you can’t help it but smile and press the gas peddle to the floor, making the car ventured forward with renewed vigor.

The next turn you took just as easy as the last and couldn’t help but to look back again for a second, only to see that the road behind you was still empty.

Glancing forward again, you see a bright kind of orb of white light floating a few feet away from you, but it seems not to be coming any closer, as if to be content with keeping up with you.

You furrow your brow and closing your eyes for a few seconds, only to make sure that your not seeing things.

But as you opened them again they grew wide at seeing the ball of light heading strait towards you.

you slammed on the brakes as hard as you could, but to no avail, as the orb hit the car and surrounding it and you in white light that you’d shut your eyes.

As the light fades away, you slowly open your eyes and panting heavily of the hole experience.

With your hart still racing, you were able to pry your hands of the steering wheel and turn of the ignition.

You slump down into the seat as your hart slowed to its normal rhythm and the remaining energy in your body seems to slip away, making you sleepy.

As your eyes fell to a close, you could have sworn to see two big blue green eyes looking at you before you’d fell asleep.

Author's Note

The reason I didn't name any others with exception of anon, is that those return in this fic. Maybe his "friend", but i don't know yet. also this is my first fic, so if you see any faults or some lines that don't work, let me know. thanks in advance.

The strange ride begins

The strange ride begins

Your slowly to wake from your slumber, as light seeps thro your eyelids, making you scowl to try and keep the intruding light out.

Unfortunately, it didn't work and you slowly open your eyes, letting them adjust to the penetrating light.

When finally opened, you furrowed your brow as you are looking up at what looks like a wooden sealing.

The memory's of last night coming back at you in force, ending with the last one showing that you fell asleep in the car. Even in your still groggy mind you know you should be looking at the headliner of the car.

As you sat up, you notice your were sleeping on the couch that some one let you use as a bed.

Looking around, you notice that the room you were in, you think the living room, almost took the hole first floor with an exception of a wall at the other side with a doorway that seems to lead to the kitchen. There was a small staircase in the corner against the kitchen and outer wall that slightly spiralled up to the second floor, leading to what you presume to be where the bath- and bedrooms are.

You also notice that there are all kinds of housings for animals hanging and standing around the room, but it seems there are no animals around.

The rest of the furniture, the little there was, were more for practical use then anything else. Also that every thing in the room and outside the window was brightly coloured, as if you'd stepped into a cartoon.

How the heck did I get here? You thought to your self. Where am I? And what happened to my car?

'Ow, you're awake,' A small, timid feminine voice said, snapping you out of your thoughts.

You look to were the voice came from, but saw nobody in the doorway of the kitchen.

A movement a few inches lower to were you were initially looking at, made you look down and take on a wide eyed glance at the site of the animal moving toward you.

It looked like a...pony? But there was a difference from the few pony's you'd seen and this one.

The coat of the pony was a light yellow and the main and tail are of a pink colour that extended all the way to the ground, ending it in a slightly curled up to a tip a few inches of the floor.

A large pair of blue, green eyes, that looked strangely familiar, looked at you and the pony was doing something you thought was not possible, it was smiling slightly.

'Thank goodness,' it said, making your jaw drop. 'I didn't know what kind of creature you are, but you looked like you needed help and I always help creatures that are in need.'

But the pony's smile faltered upon seeing the shocked expression on your face as a million thoughts ran trough your mind as you tried to make sense of it all, not really sure how to react to this.

'I-I didn't want to scare you,' The pony said, wile taking a few steps back and looking away whilst hiding her eyes behind large lock of mane. 'I'm sorry.'

Your incoherent thoughts were thrown to the back of your mind by the site of the sad pony and, For some reason, you didn't like to see her like this.

'No no,' You quickly stammered. 'you didn't scare me, I was only surprised by you.'

Now she was looking at you in shock, 'Oh my, you can talk.' she gasped, an enthusiastic smile made its way on her muzzle. 'That's great, I have so many questions like: were are you from? Who taught you to speak? What are-'

'Whoa whoa,' you interrupted the wave of questions, whilst waving your arms from side to side. 'I've got some questions too you know,' The statement earned you a sheepish smile from the pony, 'now, how about we introduce our selfs first? Why don't you start?' you finished and gestured to the pony with a outstretched hand.

She nodded, 'My name is Fluttershy.'

'Hello Fluttershy, it's nice to meet you, my name is Anonymous, but you can cal me Anon.' You said with a warm smile. 'But please,' You continued, 'Can you tell me where I am and how I got here?'

'Why, you're in Equestria!' Fluttershy said in shock, 'ow you poor thing,' her posture turned sad. 'you probably forgot when you were trapped in that odd metal...thing.'

'Wait, Equestria?' You asked with wide eyes. 'You mean I'm on a different world or something?'

You pinch yourself to see if this wasn't a dream..nope, that hurt, so you weren't dreaming. You turn your attention back to Fluttershy with a worried look, 'Can you please tell me what happened before you found me?'

Fluttershy brought a front hoof under her shin and furrowed a brow as she thought, 'Well,' the mare started. 'It was late last night and I was getting ready to go to bed, when I saw a great flash of light, followed by a large roar of some kind. When I looked out the window and saw that strange looking carriage standing there. I flew down out the window to investigate-'

'Wait,' You interjected. 'flew? As in flying? How?'

'Well, its not that difficult when your a pegasus.' Fluttershy stated, fluttering her wings.

Your jaw flung open at that and the fact that you didn't even notice those until now.

'Uhm, shall I continue?' she asked timidly after a minute of awkward silence.

You closed your mouth back up and gave a slight nod, not able to come up with what to say.

'Where was I?' She thought out loud, a moment went by before she perked up. 'Ah yes, flying out the window to investigate, there I saw you going unconscious behind the glass in the front of the odd carriage.'

'I was able to open the door, but was not able to carry you out, so I got my friend to help and took you inside.' Fluttershy finished.

'And that brings us to the here and now.' you said, earning a nod of the mare.

I looked out the window and saw two deep grooves in the dirt, but there was something missing, 'were is the car?' you asked, looking back at the mare in front of you.

'The...car?' Fluttershy asked with a confusing look in her eyes.

'Yes, the car,' Putting more inference on to the latter two words, 'you know, the weird carriage you were talking about? were is it?'

'Oh, my friend Twilight took it with her to study it.' She explained.

'To study?' you exclaimed with your eyes wide, already seeing it being dismantled in a crewed way and peaces lying every were.

You stood up from the couch as fast as you could, earning an 'eep' from the mare.

'No. No no no,' you said franticly, you got on one knee and took Fluttershy's front hoofs in your hands, making her slightly blush.

She started to pull her hoofs from your grasp, but stopped immediately after hearing you say, 'Please, I need you to take me to your friend before she does something to the car that I can't fix.'

'You don't have to worry Anon,' the mare said with a smile, taking a hoof out of your hand and caresses your upper arm with it, making you relax almost immediately.

How did she do that? The thought left as quickly as it came as Fluttershy continued to speak, 'Twilight wanted me to ask you about how you ended up in it and if you knew where it came from, before she started any thing.'

You release a relieved sigh before letting go of the hoof that was still in your hand and standing back up again.

'That's good to hear.' You said smiling, only to blink a couple of times as you remember something from few moments ago. 'Hold on, when I first talked, you were surprised that I could. How would you understand me if I couldn't?'

'Well,' Fluttershy started, rubbing her foreleg with a hoof and try to hide behind a large bundle of her mane.
the psychic wall that you have in your mind that helped against to much cuteness and had held strong all those years of seeing little puppies or what else overly cute came your way, just to crack a bit at the sight. It was just that adorable.

'Its b-because of m-my special talent,' she stammered, 'I'm able to t-talk to all k-kinds of wild creatures and they can understand me as I can understand them.'

As if on queue, animal's of all sizes slowly came from there homes that were on and in the walls or hanging of the sealing of the house. there were mice, otters, birds and even more. A little white bunny even jumped on to the back of the yellow mare.

'Oh, hello Angel.' Fluttershy said to the bunny with a smile. The bunny seems to talk to her, as he was making noises that you couldn't subscribe and glaring up to you when he finishes his conversation.

'Ow come now Angel Bunny,' Fluttershy tsked, looking from the bunny to you. ' Mr. Anonymous is a new friend and it isn't nice to say such thing's to friends.'

Angel just keep staring at you with narrowed eyes, but remained silent.

'Please Fluttershy,' you said after several seconds, still a little baffled of what you just saw. 'you can call me Anon, if you call me mister, it only makes me feel old.' The mare giggled, holding a hoof in front of her muzzle and causing another crack to form in your wall against cuteness. Damn it.

'Look Fluttershy,' You started again when she composed her self, 'as much as I like to answer the many questions you certainly have for me, I'd rather like that we head to your fiend and get my car back. After that, you can ask away.'

The mare slumped down a bit, as did her smile, 'But I-I need to feed my animal friends first before we can go. I-if you don't mind.' The latter came out in an form of a whisper.

You never felt like a bigger jerk in your live until now, 'N-no, of course,' you said quickly, waving your hands in front of you in an apologetic manner. 'I'll even help to pay you back for taking me in last night.'

It was at that moment that a growl emanated from your stomach, at first getting a shocked expression from the mare and ended up in her giggling even louder than before.

At this rate, you won't have a psychic cuteness blocking wall left.

You scratch the back of your head with your hand with a sheepish smile on your face, 'It seems that my belly wants some food to.'

'I notice,' Fluttershy said, still chuckling slightly, 'come on, we'll feed the animals first and then we can eat,' she paused for a second before continuing, 'uh, do you like pancakes?'

you grinned, 'Is fuel injection better then carburettor?'

At the confusing look of Fluttershy, you face palmed, remembering that they don't even have cars here, 'That means yes.' you finely explained, to witch the mare smiles.

---->> <<----

After feeding the animals and having the most delicious pancakes you'd ever had, you and Fluttershy cleaned the dishes that were used and put them away before leaving the house, heading for Fluttershy's friend called Twilight

As the two of you made your way down the road to what seems to be a village, you look up in the sky and see that the sun was still low above the tree tops, indicating that it was still early in the morning.

You look back down in the direction of the village, seeing something that look like a tower with a crystal on top that was star shaped standing out over the rest of the homes.

'That's the little town of Ponyville,' The voice said next to you.

You look down at Fluttershy to see if she was kidding about the name, but she had a genuine smile that indicated that she wasn't.

'And see those tower in the distance?' Fluttershy asked as she pointed a hoof in the direction.

At your nod she continued, 'That's Friendship Castle, that is were Twilight lives.'

Ponyville? Friendship Castle? You thought to your self, Couple that with the bright colours of this place and you start to think that your in a cartoon for little girls.

Keeping that for your self for now, you turn your attention back to Fluttershy.

'It seems.. nice. ' You said casually, as you pass the first houses of the village.

'Ow, just wait until see it up close.' She said excited, flying a bit and clamping her hoofs together before landing again.

'Well,' You chuckle, 'we'll just see when we get there.'

---->> <<----

'Wow,' Was the only word that came from you at the moment , as you now look at the building in front of you. The bottom of the castle was what looked like a crystallized tree, with dark purple at the "roots" and base, getting to a light blue in the branches. The latter seemed to be holding the actual castle itself, witch was a lavender color and the trimmings, roofs, railings and front door looked like it was made of gold. On the banner that hang on the side of the building bore a pink star that looked like the crystal on top of the tower.

The mare next to you giggled at your totally confused look you have, 'Told you you'd like it.' she said as she made her way op to the stairs towards the door.

You look around, 'Since your ponies,' you started. 'I thought my car was pulled here by your friend, but I don't see it.'

Fluttershy was standing at the door of the castle, 'Oh no,' she said. 'Twilight used her magic to teleport your car inside the castle.'

'Magic?!' You asked, snapping your head toward the mare. 'what do you mean magic?'

'Well uhm,' Fluttershy said, hiding behind her mane, 'every unicorn and alicorn can use magic though their horn, I'm sorry that I can't tell you any thing else about it.' as she finished, she looked down at the ground.

You look at the pegasus for a few seconds, your mind to busy racing with the idea of real magic, that it didn't even register how cute she was looking.
You release a defeated sigh and look at the mare with a small sad smile. 'Fluttershy, you are nothing but really kind to me and all I'm doing is being a real big jerk to you,' The smile fades from your face as you drop your head and look at the ground. 'I'm sorry.'

The sound of hooves hitting the ground that are getting closer and stopped a few feet away, looking up, you see a smiling Fluttershy.
'Your not a jerk,' She said, 'I see this is all new to you for some reason and I want to help you with it as best as I can.'
'Thanks Fluttershy, your a very kind pony.' You said as you gave her another smile, earning a little blush on the mares muzzle. 'Now lets meet with your friend Twilight.'

Fluttershy nodded and after getting up the stairs to the front door, the both of you enter the castle.

---->> <<----

The inside of the castle was huge! You wouldn't believe it if you looked at it from the out side, it actually looked bigger.

You keep walking down the hall with allot of doors adorning the walls, following after Fluttershy who seem to know were she was going.
though following her was unnecessary. Becauce as you walked along, you can hear the sound of a muffled voice increasing as you got closer.

Stopping at the door were the voice seems to come from, you can now clearly hear what's being said.

'-keeping her?' You hear a impatient female voice say, the first piece of the sentence was broken off as you were making your way to the door. 'She knows how important this can be for Equestria.'

As she said that, the sound of hoofs going back and forth can be heard.

'Would you relax and stop pacing Twilight?' A young male voice said. 'Of what you told me, you didn't set a time to meet with Fluttershy. And perhaps that creature that was found in that thing is still sleeping, like I should.' the last part came out as a grumbled whisper.

As an agitated groan came from Twilight, you look at the mare next to you with a raised eyebrow. She just gave a sheepish smile and reach for the door handle.

Before she could open the door, a bang with the sound of an party horn could be heard on the other side of it, making you and Fluttershy jump back in surprise. By the sound of the yelps coming from the door, you weren't the only ones that got a scare.

'Hi Twilight, hi Spike.' said a very energetic female voice.

'Pinkie?!' you hear Twilight yell. 'what are you doing here?'

'Well,' the one called Pinkie said. 'I saw Fluttershy with a strange creature by her side walking this way and because I've never seen that creature in Ponyville means that he's new in town and that means it needs a "welcome to Ponyville party".' She finished in rapid succession and ending with a squeaky toy's squeak.

'You mean Fluttershy is underway over here with the creature?' Twilight asked with a happy tone.

As she asked that, you look back at Fluttershy, who also seems not to know what to do.

'No silly,' you hear pinkie answer, 'their already here.' and with that the door opened, showing the occupants inside.

A pink head with a darker pink fluffy mane poked out form the side of the opened door and two big blue eyes that looked at you with joy.

'Hi,' She said with a wide smile as she came closer whilst jumping. Apart from the really pink colour, Pinkie looked like a normal ponies you know from your world. 'I'm Pinkie Pie, and who are you?'

'Pinkie,' Twilight's voice said right after, interrupting what you were about to say. You turn to look at her. She is a lavender coloured pony with a horn on her head and wings on her back, the mane and tail are purple with a lavender and a pink coloured stripe running through. 'he probably can't even-'

'Hi pinkie pie, I'm Anonymous.' you interrupted her with a smirk. 'It's nice to meet you.'

'- communicate. With. You.' Twilight finished, her mouth hanging open.

Pinkie's smile and eyes grew larger, 'What are you I never seen something like you are you some kind of minotaur of course your not-'

This continued on for a minute before Twilight found her composure again.

'Pinkie!' She yelled.

'Yes Twilight?' Pinkie asked.

'Your rambling. Again.' Twilight explained.

'Oops,' Pinkie said, her ears and head drooping, but still keeping a sheepish smile. 'sorry.'

'Well, since that is out of the way, let us introduce ourselves.' After saying that, Twilight cleared her throat. 'I'm Twilight Sparkle, princess of Friendship.' She said, with a hoof on her chest and her head in the air. It only made you raise an eyebrow, making her cough slightly before continuing. 'You already met Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy,' she pointed with a hoof to the mares is question, 'and this is spike, my number one assistant.' waving a hoof where he stood.

Looking the pointed direction, you see something what looks like a reptile standing on his hind leg's, with the majority of scales a light purple and the ones that went from his bottom yaw, over his belly and ended at the spade end of his tail was of a light green colour. The spines on his head that also went to the spade end of the tail were a darker green.

'Hi.' Spike said, giving a slight wave of his claw and wearing a nervous smile. 'I-it's nice t-to meet you.'

'And I'm Anonymous,' you said with a nod. 'but you can call me Anon.'

'Nice to meet you Anon,' Twilight said. 'even though I am curious about your species and were you come from, I rather want to know what that contraption is we found you in.'

'why do you want to know?' you said as you looked around, seeing that your car isn't in this room.

'For scientific purposes of course.' Twilight said with a smile.

'That and she already let the princesses know that she'll be sending her results to them.' Pinkie said happily.

'Pinkie!' Twilight gasped, glaring at the pink mare.

so, there is more than one princess here, you thought to your self. and it seems those are somehow in higher ranking than Twilight. I should ask Fluttershy about that later.

As you finished your thoughts, you see that Twilight was having a headed conversation with Pinkie. 'Twilight, it's oké!' You said loud enough to be heard. 'I don't mind, but instead just telling you, I can also show you.'

'Really?' Twilight asked with a smile on her face, after getting a nod from you was she was bouncing and cheered. 'This is gonna be great!'

Her eyes widened in mid jump and as she landed there was a little blush on her cheeks.

She cleared her throat, 'come on,' she said with her head held hi, but still having a blush. 'that contraption is in a other room.'

You and the three mares left the room, Spike said he had something to do for someone called Rarity, tough it was clear to you that he doesn't want to be near you.

'Oké Spike,' Replied Twilight whilst rolling her eyes and opened the door on the other side with her magic, making you gawk at it in amazement.

As we went in, Twilight turned to spike, 'just be back for dinner.' and with that she closed the door behind her.

She turned to you with an apologetic smile, 'Sorry about Spike,' she said. 'he thinks every creature that comes from the forest is out to eat us.'

You just shrugged, not really listening as your mind was already set on the thing in front of you.

Twilight trotted over next to you as you stared at your car with a smile, 'Soo Anon,' she started, smiling at you and levitating several pieces of paper as well as a quill. 'can you please tell me what this is?' she pointed at the red machine in front of us.

You look down at her and said whilst smiling. 'Freedom.'

Author's Note

Sorry for the joke in there in the middle, but I will make it up in an other chapter. So don't hate me to much for it. :fluttershysad:

As in the last chapter, let me know if something is missing, mispronounced or just plane bad.
I'm only doing this for fun as I had this story stuck in head and thought it would be fun to share.:twilightblush:

The race

The race
'Freedom?!' Exclaimed Twilight as she looks at you with shock, her gaze turning in to a scowl. 'It can't be called freedom, freedom is the word used for expressing somepony's ability to move, think and act of there own free will.' She finally cited, as she used a hoof for emphases.

'What are ya, a walking dictionary?' You chuckle, earning a 'humpf.' from the lavender mare as she puffed up her cheeks and folded her forelegs in front of her chest whilst sitting on her rump.

'No, I'm not,' She huffed, 'I am.. Well-read.'

You chuckle even more at that, noticing how easy teasing her is.

You wanted to tease her a bit more, but thought better of it. Seeing that this pony is an princess here and therefore royalty, you don't want to press your luck and end up in an dungeon somewhere. That, and the fact that she can use real magic against you, not knowing what it can do to you.

'Shall I explain what this thing really is?' You asked, pointing at the car

She nodded and you start, 'it's called an auto-mobile or a car for short,' the sound of a quill going over paper filled the room. You look at the source, seeing Twilight looking up from the levitating paper and at you with a wide smile as well as big sparkle filled eyes, almost pleading for you to continue.

The look wasn't cute. It was hilarious!

You had to stifle a laugh and compose yourself before continuing, 'Cars are used by us humans to get around the country faster.'

'Ow ow, like we use chariots and trains for that.' Pinkie chirped happily.

'You use chariots?' You asked.

'Why yes.' Twilight answered. 'Though the train is the fastest way to travel on land.'

'Huh.' You utter at that piece of info before continuing, 'Well, unlike chariots, cars don't need hor-uh ponies to pull it.'

'Really?' The three mares say in unison, there eyes and mouths wide open.

'How can that be?' Twilight asked, looking at the car. 'It's not that much bigger than a chariot. Where is it's power source?'

You move to the front of the car, 'It's riiiight... Under here.' you say with a smirk as you come up to the hood of the car and gave it a light tap, letting it make a metallic 'thumph' sound.

'But... I.. what.. how?!' Stuttered Twilight, not able to form a coherent sentence.

You chuckle a little, letting the mare compose her self a little before continuing, 'Well.. I can tell you, but I rather show you.'

'Oh?' Twilight said curiously, 'how do you plan on doing that?'

'Simple,' You said with a knowing smile, 'we go for a ride.'

Twilight and Pinkie immediately became esthetic and hopped all over the place whilst cheering. You glance over at Fluttershy, even though she was smiling, you see something in her eyes that you would describe as fear.

Before you could ask her if she was oké, you got interrupted by twilight. 'This is great!' She cheered as she jumped next to you, 'We should go out side if we're going to be riding in the car!' And with that her horn glowed with a pinkish aura and was soon followed by an engulfing white light.

---->> <<----

You rubbed your eyes and blinking them a few times for trying to get them to stop seeing spots, the feeling of the wind and the smell of fresh air told you that you're outside now.

By the sound of two mares grunting and squirming, you think that Fluttershy and Pinkie were also taken by surprise to what Twilight had done.

'Can you give us a bit of a warning if you do that again Twilight?' you grunted, as your eyesight slightly comes back to you. 'Because that light freaking hurts, allot!'

'I did,' She huffed, 'I said "We should go out side if we're going to be riding in the car!"'

You looked around with your eyesight still fussy and saw a lavender and purple blob standing not far away from you. Thinking it was Twilight, you gave the blob a knowing glare, 'I wouldn't call that a warning. A better warning will be "I'm going to use magic to-'

You stop for a second as the blob you were glaring at changed from lavender and purple to pink. As your eyesight now finally was clearing, you see that you were glaring at a still squinting Pinkie.

Looking for Twilight again, you see her standing next to the opened drivers side door, '-bring.. us.. outside."' you finish before asking. 'Uhm, what are you doing?'

'I'm trying to figure out how it works.' She said with milled annoyance, with her head poked inside the car.

well, she's persistent, You thought to your self, but princess or not, she should ask me if it's oké to look inside.

You coughed in your fist to get her attention, 'Princess Sparkle?' you said as business like as you could. 'Do you even have the right papers with you for that?'

'T-the right p-papers?' She asked nervously, taking her head out of the car to look at you.

You nod whilst keeping a strait face, but in your mind your sporting an evil grin. 'Why yes Twilight, you'll need those in order for you not to get in trouble.'

Her head slummed down a little, 'However,' only to perk up again as she hears you continuing, 'if someone you know has those papers, then that someone can be there to help you.'

'Uhm,' Twilight started with her ears splayed to the back of her head and an apologetic smile. 'do you have those papers?'

'But of course,' you said as reach for you wallet, taking out your drivers license and car ownership papers and show it to her, 'here they are.'
you gave her a few seconds to look at them and then putting them back in the wallet. 'It's my car after all.'

Twilight gulped, 'It.. is?'

You look at Twilight with a deadpan expression, 'Twilight, moments ago I had to explain you what it was and what it's used for. Fluttershy also found me in it, that should say something as well.'

Twilight looked at the ground, probably realizing that what she was doing was equivalent to someone going trough your stuff without your permission. 'Sorry,' she said, looking up at you. 'I was so caught up in finding out how the car works, that I didn't realize-'

She wasn't able to finish her sentence, but you didn't mind. 'It's ok Twilight,' You said with a smile, 'I forgive you, as long as you forgive me too.' you finish with a toothy grin.

'Forgive you for what?' She asked, not knowing what your talking about.

'For making you think you need special papers to look in an car.' You chuckle.

Her mouth fell open for a few seconds until she composed her self, 'well, considering the circumstances, we can call it even.'

'Alright.' You said and looked around. During the time that you were in the castle, the town has become more lively as you see more ponies walking around on the streets. 'Uhm,' You Started, still looking at all the ponies out and about. 'before we continue, I have a question.' You turn to face Twilight, 'How do most ponies here react to something fast and loud going through town?'

'Well,' Twilight said, rubbing the back of her neck with a hoof.

'When something like that happens, they will go in all directions in a panic and start screaming like this.' Pinkie finished for her, then started running around franticly as she screamed at the top of her longs.

'Oké Pinkie, I get it!' You yell after you put your hands over your ears to muffle the scream.

Pinkie stopped what she was doing and looked at you with a wide toothy smile. You release a grunted sigh, you lower your hands and brought your attention back to Twilight.

'Well, instead of that happening. I think it's best to warn them before we're going to ride.' You said.

'Is that really that loud?' Twilight asked, pointing a hoof to the car.

'Lady,' you said. 'you don't even know the half of it.'

'Well, if that's the case, then I will warn the mayor and set out a route so that nopony will be hurt by wandering on those roads.' and with that she flew away toward the building in the center of town.

'But something like that would take all day.' you yell after her.

'Actually not,' Fluttershy said, 'Twilight is the best organizer pony in Ponyville.'

'Yea,' Pinkie said happily, 'just give her about twenty minutes or so and it is done.'

---->> <<----

And sure enough, it was just over twenty minutes and the hole town seems to know about it as a line of ponies seems to form next to the street, leaving the middle of the road empty. The ponies near the castle were eyeing you and the car with a mixture of curiosity and worry.

In the distance, you see Twilight flying back toward the castle and it seems she has someone with her. As the two got closer, you could see the second pony more clearly. It was a cyan blue pegasus with a rainbow mane and tail, the pegasus was flying lazily next to Twilight having a bored expression.

Twilight landed before you and the pegasus was content on just hovering a few feet in the air next to her.

'Anon, this is Rainbow Dash,' Twilight said as she pointed to the pegasus, 'Rainbow, this is Anonymous.' she finished with a pointed hoof toward you.

'Sup,' Said Rainbow said with a raspy, but still feminine, voice, stretching a hoof out toward you whilst still in the air. 'nice to meet ya.'

You grabbed the hoof with you hand and gave it a shake, 'Nice to meet you too Rainbow.'

After you released Rainbow's hoof, she pooled it toward her chest and start rubbing it slightly with her other. 'Oké, that felt weird.'

'Really?' Twilight said, 'I would like to look in to that later, but for now, let's go for a ride.' she finished with clapping her front hoofs together.

'Sure,' you said as you walked toward the passenger side door or the car, 'but seeing that this is a two seater car means that I can only take one of you with me.'

'What!' Twilight and Pinkie exclaimed whilst Fluttershy seemed to be relieved and Rainbow just hovering there not caring.
'But if it only fits two, can't you let somepony else go in your stead?' Twilight asked.

'Do you know how to drive that?' You retorted with a raised eyebrow, pointing at the car.

'No.' Twilight said reluctantly, 'But what if you'd teach me? Then I can take somepony else with me.'

'Sorry Twilight, but you'll need a pair of these,' you tapped your legs with your hands, 'and these,' wiggling your fingers on your hands, 'to drive the car.'

'I see.' Said Twilight solemnly as she hung her head low.

'Don't worry,' you said with a smile, 'we've got enough time to go a couple of rounds. Speaking of witch, what is the course Twilight?'

'Well, I didn't know what you wanted,' She said, smiling weakly. 'so I made it that you just go strait down that road,' She pointed to the road now lined with ponies, 'at the end you'll see town hall and you go around it and then back down the same road. Is that ok?'

'Ow yea,' you said with a smirk, 'that will do just fine.'

'Pfiew, that's good.' Twilight said, wiping her forehead with a hoof before looking at you with big, pleading eyes. 'So, who are you going to take with you.'

You ignore her big eyes and move to open the passenger side door, 'Well, do you want to be the first Fl-' but as you opened the door, a pink head popped out of the car.

'Ow ow , can I go first, can I can I, I like to ride with you in the Dodge Viper, please please pretty please with sugar on top?'

'Pinkie!' You yell in surprise, 'How did you get in the car?'

'Why, through the door of course.' Pinkie said, pointing a hoof at the drivers side door that was still open.

'Oh,' you said, 'right, but how did you know the name and type of the car?'

'Because,' She said whilst pushing her nose on to yours, only to zip away and appear behind the car, 'it says so right here silly.' she pointed to the silver letters on the back.

You face palmed, turning your gaze from the pink mare and to look at Fluttershy, only to notice that pinkie was already sitting in the passenger seat again and smiling up to you. You did a double take and looked from Pinkie to the back of the car. How did she do that so fast? You thought to your self.

As you ponder about how Pinkie did that, the mare in question brought her head up next to yours. 'What are you looking at?' She said, looking in the direction you're looking at.
You sighed and shook your head, 'Nothing,' you said and looked at Pinkie, 'but back to being the first to go with me, I wanted to take Fluttershy, if she wants to.'

Pinkie's mane lost some of its puffiness as her face went sad, but before you can question it was it Fluttershy that spoke up, 'I don't mind if Pinkie is going first Anon, I'll stay here and watch.'

'Are you sure Fluttershy?' You asked.

'O yes,' she nodded, her eyes flicking once to the car before looking back to you with slight fear in them. 'I-I don't mind.'

You didn't miss the look in her eyes an nodded, 'Oké Fluttershy,' I'll have to insure her later that there is nothing to be afraid of. You thought to your self before looking at Pinkie and continuing. 'then I guess you're the first Pinkie.'

'But what about me.' Twilight whined.

You know better then to get in to a debate with a girl, because you wouldn't win. So ,you do the best next thing, 'You have to talk to her about that.' you said, gesturing to Pinkie with a thumb.

Twilight looked at Pinkie, who in turn gave Twilight the same pleading look that was used on you.

'Alright fine,' Twilight huffed, giving in to the look. 'but I will be next.'

'Fine by me,' you said as you crouched down to be at eye-level with Pinkie, 'let me just strap you in Pinkie and then we'll go.'

The pink mare giggled slightly as you took the seatbelt and it grazed over her belly. locking her belt in its place, you shut the door and made way to your side, sat yourself down in the seat, strapped in and closed your door.

You turn to face the mare next to you. 'Ready?' As she nodded vigorously, you reach for the key's that, to your amazement, were still in the ignition. You turn them to the first stage, making the lights on the dashboard come to life and earning an 'Oooo' from Pinkie. After that you turn the key's all the way, making the engine roaring loudly in to action.

Most ponies jumped in fright at the sudden sound and started to look your way with worry in there eyes. Fluttershy had Rainbow pulled down in front of her as a shield and the cyan blue mare was looking with the same wide eyed expression as Twilight.

Beginning to feel that this was a bad idea, you press the clutch down and put the gear shift in to first. 'Well,' you said reluctantly, looking at Pinkie. 'hold on to your butt.'

With that, you press in the gas peddle before releasing the clutch, making the engine roar louder and the rear wheels dig them selves slightly in the ground until they fond traction and push the car forward.

You turn the car toward the street lined with ponies, the movement made the back of the car break out slightly so you had to compensate by steering the other way. Now aimed strait at the road provided to you, you see the ponies standing next to it were scurrying back a little more, as to give you more room.

Fighting off your interpretation, you speed up, Shifting gears as the needle of the RPM meter hits the red, and roared through the street. As you glanced in your rear-view mirror, you are relieved to see that only a handful of ponies scurried away and back to their homes, the majority of the other ponies winced and pressed their ears to their heads to muffle the roar of the car, but remained where they were.

As if needing more conformation, you looked at your co-rider for the moment, just to see her smiling a smile that seemed to big for her face, you couldn't help but smile as well.

Putting all your attention back to the road, you see a round tower that was almost as big as Twilights castle getting closer. Thinking it's the town hall that Twilight mentioned, you thought of doing something you haven't done in a while. 'Ready for some real fun Pinkie?' you said, but instead of waiting for a reply, you slowed down the car and steered to the left of the building. Driving alongside the tower, you accelerate again and gave the steering wheel a tug to the right, making the back of the car break out. You use the gas peddle and steering wheel in order to keep the car sliding sideways.

At the sound of a 'Weeeee!' coming from your passenger told you that you weren't the only one having fun.

You were able to drift around the tower in a smooth motion and see the street you came out of was coming back in to view, so you started to counter steer more and release some of the pressure on the gas peddle to stop the sideways slide. As soon as the car went staid again, you accelerate back up and raced passed the row's of remaining ponies again.

You got back to the castle and with a yank on the handbrake, as well as the steering wheel, you come to a sideways stop in front of the awaiting ponies.

You shut down the engine, unbuckle your and Pinkie's seatbelt and got out of the car.

Pinkie was able to, somehow, open the door herself and was now hopping around and talking happily to her friends about how fun it was.

'-And then we went all around the tower, SIDEWAYS! Like this.' Said Pinkie as she demonstrated by moving her hind legs in a fast running action and going sideways in an arch, making engine noises along the way.

'That.. sounds.. AWESOME!' exclaimed Rainbow Dash while pumping a hoof in the air and then looked at you, 'Dude, I like to go with you sometime, if only for that.'

'Yes well, that was certainly.. interesting,' Said Twilight, looking at the car, 'you weren't kidding when you said that thing would be loud.'

'And fast.' You added with a smirk, 'It can even go faster then it just did.'
'Really?' Asked Twilight, 'How fast can it go? Can it go faster then a train?'

You shrug, 'It depends on how fast the train goes.'

'Well,' Twilight started, 'our trains are steam powered and can also go fast.'

'Then I think I'm able to beat it.' You said with confidence.

'Oh?' Said Twilight with a smirk and a raised eyebrow, 'Care to place your bits were your mouth is?'

'What are bits?'

'Bits are our currency, it's what we use to pay for things.' Explained Twilight.

'Well, I don't have those. But if I did, I definitely would.' You said.

'Alright, what about this?' Twilight said, ' If you win, I'll help you with anything you need for a week. But if I win, you'll help me for a week. Do we got a deal?' she Finished with an out stretched hoof.

You thought about it for a moment and then smiled as you grabbed Twilight's hoof, giving it a firm shake as you said, 'Alright Twilight, you've got yourself a race.'

Author's Note

Darn it Pinkie, I hope I don't get in trouble with the car's name drop. :rainbowderp:

On more serious note, I really had trouble with the racing bit. At first it sounded like fun that all ponies would be running around in an panic, but then I realize that it could hurt the story I wanted to make.
It took me a while to think of something else and the results are in the story. To me, was this the best way to go and I hope you agree.

Battle between royal and racer (part 2)

Battle between royal and racer (part 2)

You were sitting on a bench in Canterlot, next to a very pale looking pegasus and had your hand on the back of said pony.

As that hand slowly caressed the back of the pony, you thought about what has happened on your way over here.

When the clock struck seven at the train station in Ponyville, did your inner racer take over and you sped off towards the road leading to Canterlot.

Because it was still pretty early in the morning, there weren't many ponies on the road, and the few that were, made a beeline to the side of the road when they heard the sound of the car as it came closer, looking wide eyed as it passed.

Even tough the roads weren't as smooth as in your own world, you were still able to maintain a great amount of speed and the few bends in the roads were so wide, that you could go through them with no problem.

When you arrived in Canterlot, was the sun on its way to its highest point and their were a lot more ponies on the road, making it more difficult to maintain a constant speed.

Though you had a few close calls with some of those ponies, you were still able to weave around them as some of them kept standing in the middle of the street like a deer to headlights.

When finally arriving at Canterlot train station and you didn't see Twilight there waiting for you, did you turn to your passenger with a smile. Only for your smile to faultier when you saw her looking with wide unblinking eyes through the front windscreen and how pale her coat had become.

You quickly got her out of the car and sat her down on one of the benches nearby, so she could get some fresh air.

And that brings you to where you are now.

You look at Fluttershy next to you, who's colour had slightly returned, but was slightly shaking.

'Fluttershy?' You asked, 'How do you feel?'

She turned and looked at you with a tear forming in her eye as she whimpered softly.

'Please don't cry Fluttershy,' you said, quickly looking around you and seeing that you got the attention of a few ponies, 'I'm sorry if I went a bit overboard with the speed, but it was a race so I had to come here as fast as I could.'

Fluttershy shook her head and turned to look at the ground, 'You have nothing to be sorry for,' she then turned back to you with a slight smile, 'you warned me that I might not like it.'

She then looked away again as she tried, but failed, to hold back her tears from falling, 'I'm more upset with myself, the fact that I'm always so easily scared and not as brave as my other friends. It makes me feel like a weak pony.'

'Hey, stop that.' You said with soothing tone, as you moved the hand on her back to her shoulder and gave her a light hug, 'You're not a weak pony. Just by saying that you are scared, you show that you're brave enough to admit it, and that makes you stronger then most people I know.'

'Really?' Fluttershy asked, as she laid her head against your chest.

'Yeah,' you said with a comforting smile, 'and besides, you weren't scared of that ugly creature that landed in front of your cottage two nights ago.'

Fluttershy moved herself away from you with a shocked expression, 'Was there another creature there on the night I found you and didn't see?'

'I was talking about myself.' You chuckled.

Fluttershy frowned, 'You're not ugly, just.. different.' she said before she tried to hide her blush behind her mane, 'I-I mean it in a good way.'

'Thanks.' You said and looked back in front of you to see that the ponies that were looking at the two of you have averted their gaze and are now eyeing the car, along with a few others.

'What is this thing.' Said one.

'What ever it is,' Said another, 'it should be removed for being an eyesore.'

A murmur of agreement went through the gathered crowed.

'Say Fluttershy,' You said at a volume that only she could hear it, 'what if I did a little prank with the ponies that are disliking my car over there?' you pointed towards the group.

'Well,' She started as she looked in the same direction, 'I don't like pranks, but I don't like ponies that are mean either.' she then turn to you, 'It won't hurt them, does it?'

'No it won't,' You assured her, 'just watch.'

You grabbed the key of the car and pressed the unlock button.

The car made audible 'click' whilst in the same time the indicators flashed a couple of times and the head- and taillights came on.

The sudden display made the crowd disperse in every direction with fright, clearing the road in seconds.

'That wasn't very nice.' Fluttershy said with a disappointed voice.

'I never expected that to happen.' You admitted, 'But it also shows that other ponies can be scared of something you're not.'

Fluttershy wanted to say something, but the sound of a train whistle caught the attention of you both.

Soon after, did the train role in to the train station and a minute later, did a panting lavender pony rush out of the building.

'O no,' Twilight said after catching her breath and with a sad tone in her voice as she saw the car standing in front, her friends exited the building as well, 'we lost.'

'Hey there girls,' You said with a smirk, moving towards them, ' what took you so long?'

'It was unfair,' Twilight whined, 'you were on your way whilst we had to wait an other minute before we could go.'

'Well, for one: you said the race was off at seven,' you said, lifting a finger up in the air, you then placed a second next to the other, 'and two: we were waiting here for,' you take a quick look at the clock, 'about four minutes, I think you can guess what that means.'

It took Twilight a few seconds to see the connection and her head drooped, 'It means that even if we started at the same time, you would have won anyway.'

You gave her a loving tap on the shoulder, 'But did you at least have fun?'

'A bit.' she nodded, but kept her head low.

'Cheer up Twilight,' You said and took a better look around the buildings of Canterlot, 'Since we're here, maybe we can take a tour of the city?'

'That's an wonderful idea!' Rarity exclaimed with an enthusiastic giggle, 'We can go to Fashion Boulevard, Restaurant Row and even visit Canterlot Castle!'

At the last bit, did twilight perk up, 'Of course, the castle!' she said smiling again, 'I'll introduce you to Princess Celestia, come on!' she then happily trotted toward the large building perched on the side of the mountain.

Why is it that, even though I know that I won the race, You thought to your self, that it now feels like I've lost.

---->> <<----

As you walked through the halls of the castle, you were looking wide eyed at the stain glass windows that had six familiar ponies on them, 'Are those ponies the six of you?' you asked in wonder, pointing at a window displaying six ponies using some kind of rainbow beam on a creature with mismatched animal body parts.

'It sure is.' Said Applejack with a humble smile.

'Yeah, we're pretty famous.' Smirked Rainbow.

'For what,' You said with an raised eyebrow and smirking back, 'throwing rainbow beams at someone?'

'Of course not silly.' Chirped Pinkie whilst bouncing, but suddenly stopped and placed a hoof under her chin, 'Huh, now that I think about it, was that pretty accurate.'

'What Pinkie means is,' Twilight started, 'that we have used what we call: The Elements of Harmony, on creatures that wanted to disturb the harmony of our world for their own desires.'

'Their are six elements and each is represented by one of us: Honesty, Laughter, Generosity, Loyalty, Kindness,' She says as she pointed to each of the mares that represent the element in question, 'and Magic.' she finished by placing a hoof on her chest.

'And with that you pulverize your enemies?' You said in disbelief.

'No,' Twilight said, 'the Elements can't destroy, only convert or banish the bad.'

'For instance,' she continued, pointing a hoof at the just passed window, 'Discord turns to stone when hit by the Elements.'

Amazed by this revelation, you make a mental note to not to try to be a threat to the harmony, as your group reached two big golden double doors.

The two guards standing beside the double doors bowed as your group came to a standstill in front of it.

'Good day Princess Twilight,' The guard to the left said as he bowed and looked up at Twilight, 'what brings you here in the morning?'

'Good morning,' Twilight said with a slight nod of her head, 'I wish to have meeting with the Princess.'

'The Princess is in court now,' The guard said, standing back at attention, 'but I shall notify her that you are here.'

'Thank you.' Twilight said and the guard opened the door slightly, just enough to get though and went inside.

'So,' You said with a bit of unease, 'anything I need to know before we go in?'

'Just be yourself darling,' Rarity said, 'and everything will be alright.'

'But just remember to call her Princess Celestia or your Highness.' Twilight said.

'Well,' You said whilst rubbing the back of your head with a hand, 'I'll give it my best shot.'

The guard came back, 'The Princess know of your arrival and will end her court as soon as possible.'

Not a minute has past when he said that, before the two doors opened all the way and a group of ponies came trough them. Only a few of them acknowledged Twilight with a small nod, but the majority just kept their head held hi as they passed by.

When there where no more ponies coming out of the door, did your group enter the room.

Once there, you saw a tall set of stairs that was leading to a golden throne. But that was not what caught your attention, no, it was the pony sitting on top of it, That is one big pony, You thought to your self as the white coated princess got of her throne and climbed down the stairs, her multi coloured mane and tail of blue, green and pink, flowing to the side as if floating on a breeze of air.

'Good morning Princess Twilight,' Celestia said with a happy, yet royal, tone as she made her way to the lavender mare and gave her a hug, which Twilight lovingly returned, 'It's been a while since we've seen each other.'

'It's also good to see you again princess.' Twilight said as she nuzzled Celestia.

'And what is this kind of creature you brought with you?' Celestia asked after she released the hug and looked at you.

'That is the creature that was found in that weird carriage I wrote you about Princess,' Twilight explained, 'He says he's a human and his name is Anonymous.'

'Oh,' Celestia said a bit surprised as she quickly looked from Twilight and then back to you again, 'that means that he is able to communicate with us. Am I right, Mister Anonymous?'

'Please Princess,' You said while wincing, 'just call me Anon. When you call me Mister, I have the tendency to feel really, REALLY old.'

Celestia let out a soft chuckle before she said, 'It's a pleasure to meet you Anon, would you care to tell us more about you and your species?'

But before you could start, came a knock on one of the doors and a guard entered, 'Sorry for the intrusion, your Majesty,' the guard bowed at the last bit toward Celestia as he came to a standstill a few feet away.

Celestia waved a hoof, prompting him to stand, 'It's alright, what do you have to tell?'

The guard pony started to debrief, 'A few nobles came to us and said an horrible red beast was attacking ponies, so we've gone to investigate. When we got there, we saw the thing that the noble was talking about and started to surround it. But after some time, we noticed it didn't move an inch, so we took it in, just incase.'

'I hope you didn't dent or scratch the surface of my car.' You warned, pointing an accusing finger at the guard.

'Wait,' Celestia said as both her and the guard looked at you wide eyed, 'you mean that that thing, is yours?'

'Does it have an image in the form of a shield like this?' you said, using your hands to form the lines of the shield, 'And with a snake within it, that sits on the front and back of the car?'

The guard nodded as he kept staring at you with his mouth agape, 'Yep, that's mine.'

'Would you be so kind to explain to me what this "car" is?' Asked Celestia in a slight demanding tone, 'And what has happened since you got here?'

You explain what happened yesterday, with some help of the six mares, ending with the little prank you did earlier today.

'And that's about it.' You said after the explanation.

'So,' Celestia said with a raised eyebrow, 'you found it necessary to "prank" those ponies?'

'They were dissing my car,' You huffed, folding your arms in front of you chest, 'so they had it coming.'

Everyone just gave you a confused look, 'You know, dissing.' still confused looks, 'Dissing, as in Disrespecting.'

'Ooh.' Came the reply of most of the ponies.

'Where is the car now?' Celestia asked to the guard.

'We brought it to the royal gardens and is being guarded as we speak.' The guard said.

'Thank you, that will be all.' Celestia said.

The guard saluted and left the throne room, closing the door behind him.

'Can I ask you a question?' Celestia said, looking at you with a stern glare, 'What are your plans with this machine?'

'Using it for what it's build for.' you said shrugging.

'And what is that?' Celestia asked with a raised eyebrow.

'Driving.' You simply stated, earning an wide eyed glance from the white Princess.

Celestia composed herself and thought to herself a bit, 'With the speeds you can go with that thing, what would happen if it hit a pony?'

'I don't know what would happen and hopefully, I'll never have to find out.' You said, shuttering at the thought.

'And you can guarantee that won't happen?

'No I can't guarantee that, though I'm capable enough to control the car at high speeds. Just ask Fluttershy, she was sitting next to me on the way over here.' You said, pointing to the yellow pegasus.

Fluttershy made herself small and was trying to hide behind a piece of her mane again, her eyes darted to everyone in the room, who in turn was looking at her.

'Uhm, y-yes.' Fluttershy squeaked softly, trying to cram herself even more behind her mane, 'He was really good.'

'I see,' Celestia said and started pacing, 'but unfortunately, I don't think that is good enough. So I am thinking of two things, keeping it here under my watch, or let it be...'

'Destroyed.'

'What?' Everyone exclaimed.

'Isn't that last thing a bit to much Princess?' Twilight asked.

'I rather not do that either Twilight,' Celestia said with a sad face, 'but what if it falls into the wrong hoofs?'

'But I'm the only one here that knows how it works and that can drive it.' You said.

'It's true,' Said Twilight, 'if what Anon told me was right, then you'll need to be of his body type to even be able to get to the controls you need.'

'And even if there were,' You said, 'they can't do a thing with my car without,' you pull out the keys and hold them in front of you, 'these.'

'What are those?' Celestia asked, looking at them with interest.

'These are the keys to the car,' You said, putting the keys back from where you got them, 'without them, you can't open the car, let alone drive it.'

'I see,' Celestia said, 'though that makes it less likely for somepony to steal it, I rather not have a machine that fast on the road. So I want to keep it here for safety reasons. 'She finished, taking a determent stand.

'But I'm also fast.' Rainbow tried to argue.

'And sometimes go crashing into ponies.' Applejack added just loud enough for Rainbow to hear whilst baring a light smirk, earning an evil glare from the pegasus.

As the six mares were trying to convince the Princess to let you keep the car, even hearing something about Pinkie Pie being able to run as fast as Rainbow flies, you start thinking of a less confidential way to make Celestia think otherwise. A more fun way. A more... trollish way.

An idea formed in your head, an idea that might end up in you being tossed into jail, but you found it worth the try.

'I'm sorry Twilight,' Celestia said after the purple mare tried to use statistics to prove it was save, having a stern look on her face, 'even though it is all true, I still don't find it a good idea.'

'That's oké,' You said, getting the attention of everyone, all baring a shocked expression, 'but will I be compensated for it?'

'I thought you'd be the last one to agree with it.' Celestia said, 'But of course you would get compensation, you can get everything you want.'

The mental image of yourself got an evil grin on his face do to the last statement from Celestia, 'Thank you Princess,' you said, keeping a strait face, 'and I know what it is.'

'And what is that?' Celestia asked.

'That would be a kiss on the lips from you.' You answered coyly.

All looked at you with wide eyed stares and mouth agape, 'Y-you w-want a kiss... from me?' Celestia finally manage to utter.

You gave a firm nod, not trusting your voice as it would probably will be imitating the evil laugh the mental you was using.

'W-why?' Celestia asked, a light pink blush forming on her cheeks.

After mentally calming down, you start, 'Well Princess, you are getting my most priced possession, not to mention that it is unique in this world, the car is my only link to my old world. So I would like something just as special in return.'

'Alright,' Celestia said, holding her head high as she walked up to you, 'if you think a kiss from me is that special, then I will give you one.'

You start to walk up to her as well, the six mares still grasping at what is about to happen, and you both stop a few inches away from each other.

As Celestia moved her head closer to yours, you grew a bit nervous, starting to think that your plan is going to backfire. But you pushed on ahead, believing that if she does go through with it, that you atleast can say that you have kissed royalty.

You move your head closer to Celestia's as well, pursing your lips as she did the same, both of your lips were less then an inch away from each other, feeling like it's taking minutes, able to feel her breath on your skin.

But suddenly, did Celestia pool away by turning her head to the side, feeling the little hairs of her snout brush against your lips, 'Sorry, I can't go through with it,' She said, looking back at you with a sad face, 'can't I interest you in something else?'

Mentally cheering, you shook your head, 'Sorry, but if you can't go though with it, then I'll have to take my car with me.'

Celestia hang her head, 'I guess you're right, if I can't keep our agreement, then I can't keep the car.' she looked up at you, her face slightly less sad, 'all right, I will let the guards know you are taking it back.'

'Thank you Princess.' You said, thinking that this was easy as you bowed toward Celestia and made your way to the double door, Twilight and the others following you, still unsure how to feel about what happened.

'Oh, and Anon,' Celestia said as you reach the doors, making you look back in her direction, 'next time, you should think of a better plan than that to get to me.' she finished with a smirk.

You felt like your jaw dropped to the floor at that statement, making Celestia giggle at the face you were making.

You still wore a baffled expression as went trough one of the doors and entered the halls on the other side.

'You were planning on Princess Celestia not wanting to kiss you?' Twilight said in disbelief, snapping you back to reality, 'And you thought it would work?'

'Uhm, yeah,' You said rubbing the back of your head, 'but I guess I was wrong.'

'Well, she has been around for thousands of years,' Twilight said, 'so she has probably seen it all.'

'Yeah.' You said before it registered, 'Wait. What?'

'Why yes, Princess Celestia has lived and been our ruler for around a millennia.' Twilight said.

You stared into space as the idea of Celestia being immortal, or atleast having a really, really long live, sink in.

But you were brought out of your thoughts as Rainbow flew up to be on eyelevel with you and smiled brightly, 'What?'

'Can I ride back with you?' Rainbow asked with glimmering eyes.

You gave the mare a bemused look, 'No.'

---->> ??? <<----

'No, no, NO!' You call out, kicking against a table and sending its contend crashing to the floor.

You gave a glare to the magic window that was showing Rainbow pleading to Anon to take her with him, 'I didn't bring you here to become friends with ponies, you were suppose to let them see how vicious humans are and that they should be destroyed.' the image in the window shifted to Celestia, who was walking back to her throne with a smile on her face, 'And you Princess,' you hissed, 'why don't you see that he's one of the creatures I warned you about a few weeks ago?'

You took in a few deep breaths to calm yourself and thought for a moment, 'Or maybe, he is leading them all on, making them think that he is friendly and then strike.' the image in the window shifted back to Anon, who wore a slightly smug smile as he looked at Rainbow that was still pleading to him, 'If that is so, then I need to monitor him longer, and if this doesn't change,' you close the magic window before making your way out of the room, 'then I have to take matters into my own hoofs.'

I hope its still good enough.

Trouble, with a capital T

Trouble, with a capital T

You didn't go back to your car immediately, but instead took a tour of the city of Canterlot with the six mares in tow. It was all fun and great, until your group hit Fashion Boulevard, where you got dragged into every fashion shop that Rarity wanted to go, even going as far as to try to get you into a suit. How she got hold of a suit that would fit you, you have no idea, so you just chug it on the growing pile of "It's magic" and tried to resist against Rarity trying to put a pink shirt on you.

'But it would look good on you darling,' Rarity whined as she tugged at the shirt you were wearing with her magic, 'why, I would say it would look divine.'

'I don't care if it looked good on Princess Celestia!' You said angrily, trying to do everything to keep the mare from puling off your shirt, 'I'm not wearing a pink shirt!'

Rarity gave up her attempt and sighed, 'Fine, but one of these days you'll need a suit and when you do,' Rarity gave a smirk, 'it'll be pink.'

'Sure,' you said smirking back, 'like that will ever happen.'

That ended the argument of the both of you and the tour continued without a hitch.

As the tour ended and the group got back to the castle, where you saw your car standing outside the gate with guards standing around it, 'Looks like the Princess kept her word.' you said a bit surprised.

'And you thought she wouldn't?' Twilight said with a chocked expression.

'Well, she was holding on to the idea of keeping the car here,' You said shrugging, 'so yeah.'

Twilights mouth fell open as she kept looking at you.

You waved your hand in front of her face, but when no response came, you look back at the other girls. When they just gave a shrug, you made your way to your car, only to be blocked by a pair of guards, 'Halt.' the guard on the left said, 'What's your name and purpose here?'

You raised an eyebrow, 'I'm Anonymous, and I'm here to pick up my car.' you said and pointed to the machine behind them.

'Can you prove your claim?' The guard said again.

You gave the guard a bemused look as you took the keys to the car out of your pocket and pressed the unlock button, making the car click open and light up, startling all the guards, a few of them even doing a one eighty and looking at the car with a baffled expression 'Is that proof enough?' you asked, waving the keys in front of his face.

'Y-yes,' The guard said as he composed himself, 'y-you can take your machine.' and moved out of the way so you could pass.

'Thanks.' You said and looked back at the mares, 'Well, I guess I see you back in Ponyville and for the last time Rainbow,' Looking at the pegasus that had opened her mouth to say something, 'you're not riding back with me.'

The back trip went pretty smooth and unhindered, probably because you weren't driving like a maniac now. Sure, you had a couple of ponies looking wide eyed at you as you passed by, but other than that, it went fine. Until you arrived in Ponyville and a light lit up on the dashboard, 'Oh great, I'm almost out of gas.' you muttered to your self, 'Maybe I should ask Twilight for help when she's back.' with that thought, you guided your car toward Friendship Castle and waited there as you sat down on the hood.

---->> <<----

You didn't have to wait for too long before you saw Twilight, Pinkie and Applejack coming your way, the others probably went home when they left the train station.

'Anon?' Twilight said as she came closer, 'What are you doing here?'

'I was hoping you could help me Twilight,' you said, pointing a thumb to the car, 'he needs to be fuelled up. Can you tell me where I can get some gas?'

'Gas?' Twilight asked quizzically, 'As in "highly flammable vapor" gas?'

'No, the liquid kind, as in gasoline.'

'Liquid gas?' Twilight exclaimed, 'I don't think we've got what you need. But if you give me a sample, I can look if I can make some.'

Not wanting to change the car in an garden ordainment, you nodded and walked to the back of the car. Opening the fuel cover, you turn to the three mares, 'Does any of you have a long piece of hose I can use?'

'I do!' Pinkie said happily and dashed to the nearest hollow tree, 'I keep hoses all over Ponyville,' she puts her hoof in the tree and pulled out a piece of hose long enough for what you're planning to do with it, 'in case of hose emergence.'

You thought of asking her about that last bit, but you thought better of it and took the hose from her, 'Thanks Pinkie.' she smiled and you turn to Twilight, 'Now all I need is an vial or sorts to put it in.' but before she could answer , did Pinkie show up with a vial and you looked at her with a raised eyebrow, 'Is that for vial emergencies?'

'Of course not silly,' Pinkie said with a giggle, 'I just so happen to carry one with me.'

You shook your head and slided one end of the hose into the gas tank until it didn't go further and had a good piece of it still hanging out.

You then started to suck at the end of the hose to extract some of the liquid and as it hit your mouth, you place the end into the vial and let it fill up all the way wile you spit to try and get the awful taste out of your mouth.

The mares all looked in awe as it did that and snapped back to reality when you presented the filled vial to Twilight, 'Here you go,' you said, still having a after taste, 'be careful with it, it's highly flammable and I don't have that much more of this left in the car, so you'll have to be very efficient with it.'

Twilight nodded and took the vial with her magic, 'I'll keep that in mind.'

'Thanks for doing this Twilight.' You said with a smile.

'No problem,' Twilight said smiling back, 'just see it as me fulfilling my lost bet with you and we're good.'

'Sure.' You said, just happy she's willing to give it a try, but the moment was interrupted by a rumbling sound.

Looking to where it came from, you noticed it was your own stomach that growled.

Smiling sheepishly, you turn to the mares in front of you, who were looking at you wide eyed, and rubbed the back of your head, 'I guess I'm a bit hungry.'

'A bit?' The mares exclaimed.

'Oké, allot.' You said honestly, 'So, is there any place where I can eat something?'

'Oh, oh, I know!' Pinkie said happily, 'Sugarcube Corner,' she then took your hand in her hoof, how ponies can do that you don't know, and started to drag you away, 'here, I'll show you were it is.'

Looking back at the two other mares, you saw an emotion on their faces you could only subscribe as sympathy when looking at you.

---->> <<----

As you were dragged along, you saw that Pinkie was taking you to a building that looked like a gingerbread house and once inside, you were shoved into a seat at a table and you saw Pinkie spurting off toward the back of the establishment.

You looked around the room, seeing that there were a few ponies here, who looked at you with a curious gaze, before they returned to what they are doing.

You looked at the room some more, seeing that the columns were decorated to look like candy canes, and on the wooden beams that went along the sealing hanged all kinds of little candy shapes.

You were brought back to your table when something hit it with a bit of force.

You look down at the table and saw a small mountain of all kinds of treats that still wobbled a bit on the plate from the impact.

You took your eyes away from the plate and look at Pinkie that was standing there with a big smile on her face, 'Here you go.' She said and took place in front of you, looking at you with hopeful eyes.

Your eyes shifted to the plate again and you took one of the treats of the pile, a pink glazed cupcake with sprinkles, and took a bite out of it.

Your eyes widen at the soft sweet taste of the cupcake and looked from it to the pony sitting in front of you with an even bigger smile than before on her face and big glittering eyes, 'Did you make this Pinkie?' the mare nodded enthusiastically, 'It tastes really good.'

'Really?'

You nodded and took another bite from the delicious treat, humming slightly as you saver the taste.

'I'm so happy you like it,' Pinkie said and jumped of her seat, 'I'm going to get more for you.' and was off before you could say anything.

---->> <<----

Two plates. You had almost two plates of Pinkie's treats filling your stomach and you were only halfway through the second one, feeling yourself about to burst, you turn to Pinkie who was sitting back on her seat still looking at you with a big smile, 'Sorry Pinkie, but I can't fit another bite, I'm stuffed.'

'Oh.' She said a bit sad, but perked back up again, 'Well, I can't let this go to waist.' she pointed to the plate with a hoof, then wrapped her tongue around the treats and pooled it in her mouth as quickly as you could blink.

You wanted to ask he how she did that, but was interrupted someone yelling outside, 'Some pony, any pony, help me please.'

Like the rest of the occupants, you left Sugarcube Corner to see what was going on.

Once out side, you saw a mare running toward the open square in front of the bakery, 'Please, I need help.'

Feeling the need to help, you run toward her, 'What's wrong ma'am?'

The mare was startled by you for a few seconds, but she shook her head and brought her attention back to you, 'Please help me kind creature,' she said with pleading eyes, 'my daughter went after her ball that rolled into the Everfree Forest after I told her to leave it and hasn't come out.' tears started to well up in her eyes, 'I fear that she got lost in there,' Her tears flowed freely as she clammed her eyes shut, 'or even worse, that she has been taken by the Timberwolfs.'

Hearing the word "wolf" made you want to help more,' Where did she enter the forest?'

She pointed to a group of treetops in the distance, 'It's over there.'

'Don't worry ma'am,' You said determined, 'I'll find your daughter.' and ran toward your car, thinking that it would go faster then running.

You grabbed your keys while running and pressed the button to unlock the car, then got in and started the engine as fast as you could, taking off toward the tree line that the mare had pointed out, navigating though the street and needed to honk the horn a couple of times to get the ponies to move out of the way.

Reaching the forests edge, you see an opening between the trees to squeeze your car through and drove into the forest.

Your had to slow down drastically do to the denseness of the forest, but was still faster than running as you weaved through the trees and avoid fallen logs.

You knew full well that your car wasn't made for this and that it probably would get damaged, but there was a life on the line here and that was worth more to you then the damage to the car.

Not long after you entered, does the smell of rotten meat and plants fill the cabin of the car, making you scrunch up your face at the sudden stench. But before you could question where it came from, you drove onto an open space in the woods and couldn't believe what you saw.

On the left side was a young and scared filly that had pressed herself against a rock formation and was using a ball that was barely bigger than herself as a shield against the five large creatures that had surrounded her.

The creatures looked like oversized wolfs, only made out of wood, and were looking in your direction as they probably heard the sound of the car getting closer.

Seeing the trembling filly and the menacing wolfs, you could only think of one way to deal with the wooden creatures and that was,

Ramming into them.

You press the gas peddle all the way, making the engine roar loudly, and aimed the car at the first wolf that was closest to you as the car spurts toward it.

The impact with the wolf had send a jolt though the car, making you jerk back and forth a bit, and making the wolf shatter into a pile of wooden sticks, much to your amazement.

The other wolfs saw what happened to there friend and tried to act on the sudden development, but you were already onto the second one and it got the same fate as the first one.

Getting close to the end of the open space, you lift your foot off the gas peddle, then jerked the steering wheel to the right whilst pressing the brake and clutch, making the car do a sliding one eighty and coming to a stop.

You looked at the three remaining wolfs that were left, looking amongst each other with confusion. So you press the gas peddle in a few times, making the engine send out loud roars echoing through the open space, Come on, you stupid wooden mutts, you thought squinting your eyes, do the smart thing and leave.

They looked at you and growled before they leaped into the forest, leaving you and the filly alone.

You let out a sigh of relief as you shut down the engine and relaxed a bit before you opened the door and made your way to the filly who still was hiding behind her ball, looking at you with wide frightened eyes, but seems to be in one piece.

As you walk passed the front end of the car, you took a look of the damage and winced.

There were some sizeable dents in the hood and the bumper had come loose, not to mention that the hole front end of the car was splattered with some green goo.

You sighed and shook your head as you walked toward the filly, thinking that it would be a pain to fix the damage.

You walked up to the little pony and kneeled down on one knee, 'Hey there,' you said with a soft and calming voice, giving her a warm smile, 'are you alright?'

The filly stuck her head out from behind the ball, 'Mommy told me not to talk to strangers.'

You chuckle a bit, 'What about strangers that just saved you?'

The filly furrowed her brow in the most adorable way possible as she thought about an answer, then looked back at you, 'That still makes you a stranger.'

Clever girl, You thought, impressed with the logic of the filly, 'My name is Anon, but I don't think we have much time to get to know each other,' you said, giving her a worried look, 'or those wolfs will come back, and I don't think we want to be here when they do.'

The filly nodded her head and walked whilst trying to carry the ball, but only succeeding in going slower than walking.

You heard something stir in a bush somewhere, so you picked up the filly in one hand, earning a surprised yelp from her, whilst grabbing her ball with the other and made your way to the divers side of the car, you gave a quick glance at the front end again as you passed and noticed there seems to be less goo on it then before, but shrugged it of as just being your imagination and got in the car.

Once inside, you placed the filly on the passengers seat, strapped her in with the lower end of the seatbelt and gave her the ball to hold before you got settled yourself.

You look at the filly for a moment, you see that she was looking around the cabin of the car in awe.

You chuckled and started the car, earning a enthusiastic 'wow' from the little passenger and started to drive back toward Ponyville.

But when you were somewhere halfway to town, you saw a little flash coming from the right. You took a quick look, only to see the pony looking around with a wide open smile, so you thought was just your imagination playing tricks on you again and drove on.

Exiting the forest, you were greeted by a large group of ponies that where standing a few feet away from the edge, seeing the mare you had talked to being comforted by two ponies as she look your way with teary eyes and a hopeful expression on her face, so you stopped the car a few feet from the mare and took the filly from the passengers seat before getting out of the car.

'My baby!' The mare cried out as she saw her daughter, tears of happiness rolling along her cheeks as she started to run toward you.

'Mommy!' The filly called out, jumping out of your arms as she ran to her mother, leaping into the mare's hoofs for a big hug.

The mother broke the hug and looked at her daughter with a furrowed brow, 'Your in a lot of trouble young lady.' to which the filly folded her ears to her head as her mom started to look her over, 'Thank goodness you're al-' but she stopped mid sentence, looking wide eyed at her daughter, 'Y-you got your cutie mark.' she exclaimed in slight disbelief.

Before you could ask what a cutie mark was, you saw the filly looking at her backside. Following her gaze, you saw a tattoo on her flank of three cog-wheels connecting to each other.

'I've got my cutie mark!' The filly squealed happily, flailing her legs in every direction.

'Hey Anon!' You hear the voice of Rainbow call out as you were looking at two celebrating ponies, making you look at the source of the voice, seeing the pegasus flying toward you.

Rainbow stopped a feet away from you, hovering on eye level with you with a worried look, 'I heard from Pinkie that a filly got lost in the woods. Is she still there?'

You gave the mare a bemused look and pointed to the two still dancing ponies.

Rainbow looked in the direction you were pointing, 'D-did you save her?' she asked in disbelief.

You gave a nod.

'how?'

'Well, I got in my car, drove it into the forest, saw the girl being surrounded by those wooden wolfs and used my car to ram into them.' You stated flatly, pointing and looking at your car, but then raised an eyebrow as you saw that the green goo has vanished, only leaving the dents and dangling bumper behind.

Rainbows mouth hang open at the site of the car and looked back at you with big eyes, 'That.. is.. so..' she then flew up and pumped her front hoofs in the air, 'Awesome!'

You gave a light chuckle as you looked at Rainbow, but a few tugs on your shirt made you gaze down and saw that it was the filly, 'Thank you for saving me mister Anon,' she said, looking at you with a smile, 'and for helping me to get my cutie mark.'

'No problem.' You said, making a mental note to ask Fluttershy about cutie marks as you bend over and gave her mane a light ruffle, which earned you a slight giggle.

As you stood strait again, you saw the mother coming your way, 'Yes, thank you kind creature,' she said as she stopped in front of you, 'If there is anything I can help you with, please let me know.'

'Uuh,' You started as looked back at your car for a second, giving her a sheepish smile whilst rubbing the back of your neck, 'do you know of a good metal shop where I can fix my car?'

Author's Note

Whelp, I'm trying my hand on this story again.
This one was more fun to write than the last, I am wondering if I should use the comedy tag on this story, what do you think? Let me know.

A day with Fluttershy

A day with Fluttershy

‘You did what?’ Fluttershy exclaimed with a fearful tone, making you jump back a bit.

Once you got back to Fluttershy’s cottage, you explained to her what had happened in that forest, that has resulted into this.

Noticing that she was a bit loud, Fluttershy gave a sheepish smile before continuing on a softer tone, ‘The Everfree Forest is really dangerous, you could have been seriously hurt, or worse,’ she gulped, ‘be killed.’

‘But if I didn’t, then that little girl would have become wolf's meat.’ You explained.

‘And I’m happy that you saved her,’ Fluttershy said, ‘but what if something really bad happened to you?’ her head drooped a bit, ‘Then I would have lost a friend.’

You were taken aback by this, you have been in this land for less then two days, and this pony already saw you as a friend. It took at least a week for your best friend to become a friend in the first place, ‘You see me as a friend?’ you asked in slight disbelief, ‘Even though we only just met?’

‘Of course,’ Fluttershy said wide eyed, then looked away whilst hiding behind her mane, ‘I mean, if you want me to be your friend.’

‘It’s not that Fluttershy, I'd really like you to be my friend. It’s only that you now hold the record of “the quickest friend made”.’ You said with a grin.

She giggled a bit at what you said, making you laugh too.

Once the two of you stopped, did you look outside toward the car, ‘I better get started and try to get most of the dents out of the hood before the metal gets too stretched.’ you turn to Fluttershy, ‘Do you have some tools I can use?’

‘Yes,’ Fluttershy said, ‘it isn’t much, but you can use it if you want.’

‘Thanks,’ you said, ‘can you get it for me and bring it to the car?’

As she nodded and went her way, did you go outside and opened the hood of the car and set it on it’s stand so it stayed open.

Once you had done that, you looked in the direction of the cottage and saw Fluttershy coming your way with a small toolbox held in her mouth.

Once she got to you, she presented the toolbox so you could take it from her.

‘Thanks Fluttershy.’ You said with a smile as you took the box and looked into it, only seeing an adjustable spanner, a few screwdrivers and a hammer inside it. It wasn’t much, but it was enough for what you’re planning to do with it.

You took out the spanner, adjusted it to the right setting and started to unbolt the hood from the car.

As you were loosening a bolt, you saw Fluttershy looking in the engine bay from the corner of your eye, making you stop and look at her, ‘Something wrong Fluttershy?’

The question snapped her out of her stare, ‘Oh sorry,’ she said with a sheepish smile, ‘I was just wondering what that is.’ Fluttershy finished, pointing to the hunk of metal that sat in the middle of the opened space.

‘That’s the engine,’ You answered, ‘the thing that gives the car it’s power.’

‘It looks like it is as big as a pony.’ Fluttershy stated.

You look toward the engine as well, ‘Yeah, it does.’ you said smiling and started to unbolt bonnet again.

Once you were almost done with this side, did you look back at the mare that was still sitting in front of the car, fidgeting with her front hoofs and looking as if deep in thought. If the pony looked any cuter, you feared for your resolve against cuteness from being crushed at this rate.

You shook your head and looked at Fluttershy again, ‘Something on your mind?’ you asked, earning an ‘eep’ from the pegasus.

‘Uhm,’ Fluttershy stammered, rubbing one hoof with the other, ‘I was... just wondering... if I could... help?’ she finished, the latter coming out as a high pitch squeak.

With that, she just left a nice big hole in your “anti cute wall”, almost making you want to leave your spot and give her a big hug whilst saying how cute she is. Almost.

Only after fighting off the urge to do that, were you able to give her a answer, ‘If you’re offering, then I would really like you to help.’ you looked at the unbolted part of the hood and then back at Fluttershy, ‘If you could hold this up for me, then I can go and undo the other side.’

Fluttershy nodded and walked toward you whilst you made room in order for her to take your place.

She got on her hind legs, her front hoofs resting on the fender and scooted in front of you, whilst you kept the hood up in one hand.

She placed one of her hoofs under the unbolted corner and looked back at you.

‘Ready?’ You asked.

When she nodded, you continued, ‘Oké, then I’ll lower the hood, just let me know if it’s to heavy, alright?’

She nodded again and you slowly lowered the bonnet on her hoofs whilst keeping an eye on Fluttershy, just to make sure it wasn’t to heavy for her.

She scrunched up her face, but seemed to be able to hold it.

You made your way to the other side and started to unbolt it.

Once you were done with that and was holding the part of the bonnet in your hand, you looked back at the pegasus, ‘Oké, Fluttershy, do you think you can help me lift the bonnet and lay it on the ground in front of the car?’

‘Uhm, I-I can try.’ Fluttershy said with a slightly strained voice.

‘Oké,’ You said a bit concerned, ‘just tell me if its to heavy for you alright?’

She nodded.

‘Alright, we move on three. one... two... three.’

As you finished the countdown, did the two of you move away from the car. once you got clear from it, did you look toward Fluttershy again, ‘Now, lower it to the gr-‘

But your words were cut short when Fluttershy suddenly dropped to the ground with a thud and a yelp, her hoofs still under the heavy hood.

You quickly lowered your end to the ground and made your way to her, lifting her end so she could take her hoofs from under it as you asked, ‘Are you oké Fluttershy?’

The mare nodded, ‘Yeah, I’m alright.’ but started to rub one hoof with the other.

‘Did you hurt yourself?’ You said as you lowered the metal back to the ground again whilst still looking at the pony.

‘O-only a little.’ She said, now rubbing her other hoof.

‘Here,’ You said with a smile, taking both of her hoofs in each hand, ‘let me help you.’ and started to gently rub the top of her hoofs with your thumbs.

You felt the soft hairs of her coat slightly shift under your thumbs, feeling just like silk, while looking into her big blue-ish green eyes, ‘Does it feel better?’

Fluttershy slowly nodded whilst keeping her eyes on yours, shimmering like two pools of water.

The longer you looked at them, the more beautiful- Hey, earth to Anon, a voice in the back of your head called out, you're gawking at a pony, Snap out of it!

You blink a couple of times and placed the hoofs back on the ground before you got up, whilst awkwardly coughing in your fist, ‘W-well, good to hear it helped.’ you gave her a quick look from the corner of your eyes, ‘Uhm, do you have a big blanket I could use?’

Fluttershy nodded and looked away with a blush on her cheeks, ‘Yes, there is one in the cabinet under the stairs if you want.’

You nodded and went inside to get it.

Once you got it, you lay it on the ground and placed the hood upside-down on it, as well as another piece of cloth on the dents to minimize the chipping of the paint as you hammer on them.

Silence filled the air, the only sound being heard was the impact of a hammer on metal.

Wanting to break the awkward silence between the two of you, you thought of the question you wanted ask her, ‘Say Fluttershy, Can I ask a question.’

‘Oh, s-sure.’ She said, seeming to be happy that you wanted to talk to her again.

‘Can you tell me what cutie marks are?’

‘Of course,’ Fluttershy said and started to explain that ponies will get them when they find their special talent, even that there are ones that linked them to their destinies.

You nodded in response, amazed that it all seems like magic. But then, this hole place looks like it was filled with magic.

You smiled and thanked Fluttershy, and the two of you went silent once more.

Only when you’re almost done with the hood did Fluttershy speak up again, ‘S-so Anon, there’s going to be a Iron Hoof Competition at Sweet Apple Acres tomorrow,’ she said, audibly swallowing a lump in her throat as asked in a shaky voice, ‘w-would you like t-to go with me?’

You faced Fluttershy, seeing she was hiding herself away behind her mane, and thought about the question for a moment. She probably didn’t want it to be awkward anymore between the two of you and just wanted to have some fun, but is probably afraid that you’ll say no.

‘Sure,’ You said, giving her a smile, ‘sounds like a lot of fun.’

‘R-really?’ She asked happily and you nodded, smiling as you saw her brighten up at the thought.

You gave a few more hammers to the last stubborn dent and looked it over, seeing that the majority of them virtually gone and only leaving small puts you couldn’t get without the right tools, so you left it as it was.

You looked up to the sky and saw that it was getting dark, so you thought of just placing the hood back on the car and that you will bolt it on in the morning.

Not wanting Fluttershy to get hurt again, you mentally readied yourself to lift the hood on your own.

you turned the bonnet over so the top was facing up and after inhaling and exhaling a couple of times, you lifted it into the air in horizontal position, earning a amazed gasp from Fluttershy, feeling your muscles burn under the weight as you shuffled toward the car and lowered it in its place slowly, letting out a exhausted breath once you let go of it.

Taking a step back, you turn to Fluttershy, ‘Well, I can’t do any more to it for today and will fasten it back in place tomorrow morning.’ you placed the tools you used back in the toolbox and folded the blanket you used and put it under you arm before you took the toolbox in your hand, ‘I will also wash the blanket, since I made it dirty.’

‘Oh no,’ Said Fluttershy blushing a bit for some reason, ‘I’ll do that as you fix your car tomorrow.’

‘Are you sure?’

Fluttershy nodded, ‘Yes, I’m sure.’ she got up and made her way inside her home, ‘I’ll go and get dinner started,’ she quickly looked at you before averting her gaze to the front, ‘you j-just sit back a-and relax.’

So the two of you ate dinner after the animals were fed and said your goodnights when Fluttershy went to her bed.

---->> Fluttershy <<----

You trotted though a vast open field that was filled with beautiful flowers, you were curious, albeit happy for some reason, to what you were doing here.

Behind you, you heard somepony call out you name and you turn around to see who it is.

But when you turned you didn’t see a pony, but Anon, who was running in slow motion toward you, with a smile on his face and with a.... bare chest.

Oh.. my. You thought to yourself as he got closer to you, feeling your cheeks glow when you saw all his muscles tense and flex as he continued on his way.

You felt your heart pump franticly as he was only a few feet away now, opening his arms to embrace you in a hug.

You wanted nothing more then for him to do that and sat on your haunches before you opened your front legs to accept him.

But before the latter could happen, did a blue bolt of magic strike him in the abdomen and left a hole in its place.

You watched in horror as Anon looked with a fearful gaze on his face at where his stomach used to be and then looked back at you before fading out of existence.

‘Thank goodness I came just in time,’ A strong female and royal sounding voice said, ‘a second later and that nightmare would have surely crushed you with his strength.’

You turn around and saw the dark blue alicorn with a star filled blue mane and tail that flowed on a non-existent current.

‘Princess Luna?’ You exclaimed, ‘What are you doing here?’

‘Why, saving you from that horrible monster of course.’ She said, puffing her chest out slightly.

‘But that was no monster,’ You told her, your voice filled with sadness as tears rolled down your cheek, ‘that was my friend Anon.’

Luna blinked a couple of times, ‘Wait, so that was that human creature that my sister spoke about earlier?’

‘Yes it was.’ You said with a sniff, but then stopped as you thought of something, ‘Wait, did you say that this is a dream?’

‘Indeed it is,’ Luna said, now folding her ears back a little, ‘ and I am sorry for thinking of it as a nightmare, I hope you can forgive me.’

You breathed a big sigh of relief and nodded, ‘Of course Princess, I’m just happy you didn’t kill the real Anon.’

The Princess nodded, ‘Thank you for your kindness, though I shouldn’t be surprised that it is coming from you,’ she then walked toward the edge of the dream world, ‘carry on with your slumber my friend, I promise to be more careful the next time I enter your dream.’ with that, she faded away from the dream, leaving you alone on the field of flowers.

‘Well..’ You said to yourself as you looked over the open space, ‘what am I going to do now?’

---->> Anon <<----

You awaken the next day after a good night sleep, but you couldn’t say the same about Fluttershy, who came down from her room with a groggy look on her face.

You asked her if she was alright, but she just said she had a weird dream and that she’ll be alright.

So after the morning chores were done and the bonnet was bolted back on the car without much difficulty, did the two of you made your way to Sweet Apple Acres.

Once there, did you see all the props that were set for the competition, but it seems that the only ponies that were doing this challenge were Applejack and Rainbow Dash. Yet, it looked like they gathered quite a crowd.

As you watched the two get ready to get the competition started, you felt a tug on your shirt and looked down to see Spike standing there, shuffling his feet and looking to the ground.

‘Hey there spike,’ You said, trying to start a conversation with him, ‘what’s the matter?’

Spike looked to Twilight, who was standing a little way away from the two of you and gave him a comforting smile as well as a nod to give him some courage.

He turned back to you and took in a big breath, ‘I’m sorry for being scared of you mister Anon,’ he said with a remorseful voice, ‘but after I heard how you’d risked your own life to save that filly from the Timberwolves, I realized that I was being silly for thinking of you as a monster that would attack us. Can you forgive me?’

You smiled at him, ‘Sure little dude, I don’t blame you for thinking like that.’ you got on one knee to be on the same level as him and reached out with your hand, ‘And you can just call me Anon, oké Spike?’

Spike smiled and took your hand in his claw, ‘Thanks Anon.’ he said with a thankful nod and a shaked of your hand.

You watched the little guy get back to Twilight’s side and you took a seat next to Fluttershy on the stand.

You watched as the two ponies go all out in the competition, with Twilight keeping score and Spike acting out as an announcer.

Looking at the two ponies going at it, you thought of all the things that you did with your friends who liked to find who was better at what, like ball sports, video games.. and racing of course.

You thought about the latter for a moment as you saw Rainbow and Applejack were now in a tug of war competition and a idea for a new sport for these ponies seem to form in your head, a idea that formed a big smile on your face.

‘Are you having fun Anon?’ Said Fluttershy with a giggle, 'Because you are smiling.'

You look down at her and saw her smiling back at you, ‘I sure am,’ you said, ‘but that was not why I was smiling.’

‘Oh,’ Fluttershy said, tilting her head to the side, ‘then what did?’

‘I just thought of a new sport I think that some of the ponies would like to do.’

‘Really?’ Fluttershy said enthusiastically, ‘What kind of sport?’

‘I'll tell you and the others once this is over, oké?’

Fluttershy’s expression saddened, but nodded in understanding anyway.

You just smiled and wrapped an arm around her to comfort her a bit.

She didn’t seem to mind, in fact, she scooted even closer you and laid her head against your side.

The both of you stayed like that for the majority of the Iron Hoof Competition, the two competitors matching each other and when the final challenge was over, had the score count ended in a draw.

The two ponies just smiled to each other, ‘Good game Rainbow,’ Applejack said as she raised one of her forelegs, ‘and ya didn’t even cheat this time.’

‘I still say that I didn’t cheat,’ Rainbow said with a smirk as she bumped a front hoof against AJ’s outstretched one, ‘but it was fun anyway, even if we ended up in a draw.’

You and the rest of the friendship group made their way toward the two to congratulate them on the exciting events.

‘Thanks girls,’ Raindow said, ‘though it would be awesome to finally know who’s the best athlete.’ she gave Applejack a competitive stare.

‘Well, ah guess we'll have to find out when we do the Running of the Leaves in a few days.’ Applejack said, giving the pegasus the same look back.

‘Or you could do the sport that Anon just thought up.’ Fluttershy said.

The friends first looked toward the yellow mare, before turning to you.

‘Is it a sport from your world Anon?’ Twilight asked curiously, her eyes sparkling with the idea of learning something from a different world.

‘Not exactly.’ You said sheepishly whilst rubbing the back of your head.

Twilights look saddened, but she piped back up right after and got a quill and paper from... somewhere, readying herself to start writing, ‘That’s oké, I still like to know all about it.’

‘Well,’ You stared to explain, ‘it’s a race between two ponies at a time. The two ponies have to pull a certain amount of weight in a strait line to a finish line, the one who finishes first will continue to the next round until there are only two left, those two will go head to head to each other and the winner will be crowned champion.’

‘Sounds cool.’ Rainbow said with a smirk, but then cocked an eyebrow at you, ‘So what do you call this sport?’

You could only grin at the curious faces in front of you as you gave your answer, ‘A drag race.’

Author's Note

I regret nothing!!!:trollestia:

On side note, sorry it took so long for me to write this chapter, but the holidays and lack of motivation to write will do that to you. (it also doesn't help I tried to write three stories at once.)
I hope I can become more constant with the chapters, but I think that's wishful thinking.

The drag race

Pre-author's note:

I'm doing this chapter a little bit different, for I will be color coating what characters say. But the story will go back to second person near the end.

Forgot who is who? You can find the colors back in the authors note down below. (spoiler blocked of course.)

Now, let's continue with the story.

The drag race

Hello one and all and welcome to the first ever Drag race, I'm your announcer Anon.

And I'm Pinkie Pie.

Uhm.

Oh, hi Spike, wanna be an announcer with us?

Can I?

Sure Spike, come sit with us and we can get this game started.

Thanks!

Now where was I?

You were about to tell the audience that there are four competitors and they will go two on two against each other while pulling a wheel-less wagon with a heavy weight in a strait line and the first to finish, wins.

Well, now I don't have to, since you basically told it all already.

Sorry.

It's okay. Spike, would you like to announce the first two competitors?

Sure. First up is our very own weather manager and dare devil: Rainbow Dash!

Aw yeah! Now, who here thinks he can beat me?!

Already thinking that you won, ay Rainbow? Let's see who you're up against. Spike, can you tell us who it is?

Alright. Rainbow Dash's opponent is a pegasus as well and looks strong to boot.

YEAH!

Holy crap! Is that guy on steroids or something?

Anon, mind your language. There are foals watching.

Oh, sorry Pinkie.

It's oké, this story is teen rated anyway.

What?

Never mind. It seems that Bulk Biceps made his way to his lane and both competitors are getting ready for the race to begin.

So, do you think you have what it takes to beat me Bulk?

YEAH, LET'S DO THIS!

Alright, the combatants are ready to get started and are waiting for us to get the race started. So, let's not wait any longer. Ponies at the ready.

Get set.

GO!

And they're off!

Wow, look at them go! Already pulling their weights along their paths.

Yes, though it seems that Bulk's muscle power is giving him an edge at the moment.

But all that is about to change, as Rainbow is starting to use her wing power!

Now they're neck on neck, nose to nose, none of them giving a inch to the other.

C'mon wings, don't fail me now! *extreme wing flapping*

HNGGGYEAH! *extreme tensing muscle noises*

Still a few feet to go, and it's still to close to tell.

Aaaannnd... Finish!

Wow, that was close. So close, that we the info of who won from the pony at the finish: Fluttershy.

Oh, uhm, well, I don't want to disappoint anypony of who won. But, I don't want anypony to be sad when I tell that they've lost.

But Fluttershy, you kept score in the Iron Hoof Competition that one time.

Yes, but it was Twilight who called out the winner.

C'mon Fluttershy, you need to tell us who the winner is. We promise that we won't get mad at you. Right Bulk?

YEAH!

Oh, oké, if you really want to know, it was... Rainbow Dash.

Uhm Fluttershy, you need to speak up. I couldn't hear what you said.

It was Rainbow Dash.

Fluttershy, you really need to- IT WAS RAINBOW DASH!

Awww yeah!

*whimpering horse noise*

Oh Bulk, I'm so sorry. But we can still be friends, right?

*whimper*Yeah.*whimper*

Don't worry Fluttershy, I'll give him a "Sorry you didn't win and that you'll still be my friend" party later.

I hope he will be all right.

We can check on him later. Right now, the second round is about to begin. Spike, who are the competitors of this round?

The first one is the cowmare of honesty and the most dependable pony: Applejack!

YEEHAW! I'm as ready for this to get started as a beaver is ready to build a dam! So, who's my opponent gonna be, sugar cube?

Um, you're not gonna believe it Applejack. But it's your brother: Big Macintosh.

What! Big brother?!

Eeyup.

So, ya'll think that yah can beat me?

Eeyup.

Humpf, we'll see. But let's make it interesting, whoever loses, has to clean the other's room for a week. Deal?

Eeyup.

Wow, the tension is high as the two ponies now have a personal score to settle.

Yeah, and they both really want to win it from the other too.

Right. Anyway, time to get this started. Ponies at the ready.

Get set.

GO!

Dang, Big Mac is off to a great start, as he is already in front.

C'mon legs, don't give out on me now!

Oh no, it looks like no matter how hard Applejack tries, she can't catch up to her brother.

And Big Mac is still going strong, as the finish line comes into view.

Nooooo-

And finish!

-oooh, shoot!

Well, congratulations big brother, it seems that now ah have a bet to cash in, don't I?

Eeeyup.

Aww, don't worry Applejack, you only made a bet for a week. It'll be over in a jiffy.

Ah know, but that won't make it any more fun.

Well, that leaves me to take home the gold.

You have to win from Big Mac first. Speaking of which, it looks like he's already waiting on you Rainbow.

Heh, want to lose so badly, ay? You're on! But don't start crying when I take first place.

(A few moments later)

I lost?!

It seems so, sugar cube.

Congratulations Big Mac. Any last words on the race?

Nope.

Oh, oké then. Well, here is your trophy for winning the first ever drag race.

*takes the trophy and gives a nod while smiling*

Anon!

Oh, hey Twilight. Where have you been?

I've been working on that liquid gas that you wanted back at the castle, *magic flares up and a vial comes into view* and here it is.

Uhm Twilight, it looks like the same one I filled two days ago.

It is! *clapping hoofs together excitedly* But I placed a spell on the liquid so it will expand until the holder is filled to the brim.

And what if that goes wrong?

Then I can use a counter spell to stop it.

*Extremely(not really) hard thinking* Oké, let's try it.

---->> Anon <<----

You walked towards Fluttershy’s cottage with Twilight at your side, but stopped when you saw a peculiar sight that made you blink a couple of times.

Twilight, who kept walking when you stopped, noticed you weren’t walking beside her and stopped as well, turning to you with a raised eyebrow, ‘Something wrong Anon?’

‘I hadn’t had the chance to do anything about the bumper,’ You said, then pointed toward the red machine standing in the field in front of the cottage, ‘so how come the it's suddenly fixed?’

Twilight looked as well, ‘Well... maybe somepony came by that fixes things for a living.’

‘Without asking for money or permission from the owner?’ You asked in disbelief.

‘You haven’t hung around Rarity much, have you?’

‘No. But what has that have to do with it?’

‘Well,’ Twilight started to explain, ‘like Rarity, some ponies do things out of generosity, or suddenly got the passion to fix it, without being asked or asking anything in return.’

You nodded in understanding. ‘If so, then I’ll have to find the one who did it and thank that pers-uh.. pony.’

Twilight smiled after you said that and the two of you made your way to the car.

Once there, you checked out the bumper, seeing that all the damage is repaired and looked as good as new. Better yet, it looked like it just came of the assembly line, in fact, the whole car looked like it did.

You quizzically looked the car over as you made your way toward the gas cap, seeing that even the small dents in the hood were gone.

You opened the lit to the gas tank and turned toward Twilight, ‘All right, let's try the flask with the magic endorsed gasoline.’

Twilight gave you the vial via magic and you emptied the content into the opening of the gas tank, taking a couple of steps back after for good measure.

You watched as a pink glow came from the opening where you poured the liquid in, the light intensifying before it faded with a snap.

You looked toward Twilight with a raised eyebrow, who in turn looked at you with a toothy grin, ‘See, I told you it would work.’

‘Just wait with your celebrations ‘till after I start the car.’ You said as you made your way toward the drivers side door and sat behind the wheel to start the car.

You turned the key and saw that the fuel gauge made it’s way to full, then continued to turn the key even more, making the engine rumble inconsistently for a short while before roaring to life.

You perked your ears as the engine ran stationary, trying to listen for any hiccups that might occur. But when you heard nothing of the sort, you decided to press the gas pedal, making the engine roar as you pressed the pedal until the needle of the rev gauge was in the red.

You took your foot from the gas and engine noise dropped immediately, the sound of sputtering only being heard for a few seconds before going to his stationary rumbling.

Nodding in approval, you turned to Twilight, ‘Oké, now you can celebrate, it looks like he’s running smoothly.’

‘Great!’ Twilight said happily, but looked down and scraped the ground with her hoof, ‘Now that you’re able to ride again,’ she said with a struggle in her voice, ‘can I ask you a favour?’

You knew the tone of her voice all too well. It was the tone of someone who was going to ask you for a ride in your car, but Twilight just saved your car from becoming a lawn ornament, so you should give her that, ‘So where do you need me to take you?’

Twilight looked wide-eyed at you, ‘How did you know I was going to ask you that?’

‘Lucky guess.’ You said with a chuckle.

‘Oh,’ She said with a blush, ‘but would you be so kind to bring me to my mother in Canterlot tomorrow?’

‘Sure,’ you said with a shrug, ‘got nothing to do tomorrow anyway.’

The meeting at Twilight

The meeting at Twilight

You and Twilight discussed the details of tomorrow and agreed to leave early in the morning.

Once the two of you parted your ways, you went and looked up Fluttershy to tell her about tomorrow, although you didn’t quite know why you wanted to, you’re your own man and have no obligations toward the yellow mare.. right? Well, other that she’s giving you free boarding and meals while asking for nothing in return. Though you help around the house and with the animals as payment.

In any case, you felt like you had to tell her, so when you found her, you told about the next day.

‘Oh, that’s wonderful,’ Fluttershy said as she clapped her hooves together, ‘it’s nice to see that you and my friends are getting along so well.’

You chuckled at her enthusiasm and the both of you made your way back toward the cottage, where you had an early dinner before heading to bed.

--> <--

After having a quick breakfast and the dishes were cleaned up, you went on your way toward Friendship Castle. But not before Fluttershy wanted to make a snack for along the way, which you kindly denied, ‘The trip won’t take that long and besides, driving whilst eating is really dangerous.’

Arriving at the castle, you saw that Twilight was already waiting for you whilst holding a pair of saddlebags in her magic that were filled to the brim, which made you ask the question, ‘Um, what’s in the bags?’

‘Oh, just the essentials,’ Twilight said with a enthusiastic tone, ‘quills, paper, ink... quills.’

‘You just said quills two times.’ You pointed out with a raised eyebrow.

‘I did?’ Twilight said sheepishly, ‘Silly me.’

You waved it off with a hand, ‘No matter, but why do you need it?’

‘It’s for writing about what I’m going to learn about the car and the ride along the way.’ She said happily as she clapped her hooves.

You just rolled your eyes, ‘Well, if you’re ready, then I think we can go.’

‘Oh, right.’ Twilight said as she made her way to the passenger side and you opened the door for her.

Once Twilight was seated, you wanted to strap her into her seatbelt, but as you reached for it, The belt was enveloped by a pink aura and was clicked in place.

You reared back in surprise, but relaxed right after, Right, magic. you thought to yourself as you made your way to the other side and got in, driving away shortly after.

--> <--

A few minutes, it took Twilight a few minutes get through the majority of paper she brought to write on, what you assume, was about her experiences so far. No, it was not only because you were paying attention to the road that you weren’t able to read it, but also because she was writing in a language you couldn’t read.

Thinking of asking about that later, you shift to the next gear and saw that Twilight was looking at the handling from the corner of your eye.

You wondered and shifted back just to see what she will do and sure enough, you saw Twilight looking again.

‘Something wrong Twilight?’ You asked, making her jolt up in surprise.

‘What? no, there’s nothing.’ She said as tried to look away from you.

‘C’mon Twilight, I saw you looking at the gearshift as I was using it.’ You said as you placed a finger on the mentioned part for indication, ‘So, what’s up?’

‘Well,’ She started, ‘if you don’t mind, would like to tell what that does?’ then pointed toward the gearlever.

You thought for a moment, and then nodded, ‘Sure.’

Twilight let out a squeal of delight as she stomped her hooves on the seat cushion and levitated paper and quill towards her, smiling brightly at you as she awaited your explanation.

You chuckled softly at her antics and thought for a moment to answer, ‘The gearbox basically distributes the power from the engine to the wheels evenly from low, to high.’

Twilight stopped her scribbling and looked at you, ‘Is that why the engine sound goes down when you go to the next uhm.. gear?’ once you nodded, she continued, ‘So.. it uses gears in order to get the car going on the road?’

‘Pretty much, yeah.’

‘Can you.. tell me how that works?’

You groaned and slammed your head on the wheel with a thud.

--> <--

After an explanation of the finer workings of a transmission, you arrived in Canterlot and with Twilight’s guidance, arrived at the home of her parents.

As most of the houses in this city, this one was white, though not as big as most of the others.

You got out of the car and moved to open the passenger side, but Twilight had opened it and got out with the help of her magic.

‘Well, have fun with your mom Twilight.’ You said as you made your way back to the drivers side.

‘Wait!’ Twilight yelled a bit loud, making you stop in your tracks and look at her with a raised eyebrow, seeing her look away with a nervous smile on her face, ‘Would you.. like to come too?’

‘Why do you want that?’ You asked, ‘Isn’t this one of those “mother/daughter bonding” things?’ but then, it hit you, ‘Wait a minute, You told your mother that you were bringing someone, didn’t you?’

When she let out an awkward chuckle, you knew you were right and you facepalmed.

As you pulled your hand down and Twilight came into view, you saw her looking back at you with the biggest eyes that would put that a cute puppy’s to shame. Wait.. did you just think that something was cute? Ugh, this world is changing you, and you don’t know if you really like it.

‘Oké, fine,’ You said, thinking that it had nothing to do with the fact that she looked cute, which she didn’t. You only agreed because you had nothing better to do anyway, that and nothing else.

The both of you made your way through the lawn and toward the front door, Twilight knocking on it as you came to the door.

It didn’t take long for the door to open and reveal a light grey pony with a white and purple striped mane that was cut in the front in a strait bang just like Twilight's, you would have called her her sister, until Twilight said, ‘Hi mom.’

‘Hello sweetie,’ Said the mare as she moved in to hug her daughter, ‘how have you been doing?’

‘I’m doing just great, mom.’ Twilight said as she hugged her mother back.

As they released the hug, did Twilight’s mom look your way, ‘And is this that handsome creature you told me about? Is he your coltfriend?’

‘Mom~’ Twilight whined in embarrassment as you started to look down the street, ‘Where is this handsome creature?’ you said, ‘I don’t see him.’

Twilight’s mom giggled, ‘Oh my, and he’s funny too.’

At that statement, you looked around more frantic, ‘Oké, now I know that it isn’t me.’

The mom giggled even more, ‘Oh, he’s going to be a fun one,’ she said as she stepped inside the house, ‘please, come on in.’

You walked in the house, but almost tripped as Twilight’s mom suddenly stopped in front of you , though you’ve managed to keep standing and not flatten her.

‘Oh, where are my manners,’ She said as she turned back to you, ‘I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Twilight Velvet.’ she finished with a hoof to her chest.

‘Nice to meet you Ms. Velvet, I am Anonymous, but you can call me Anon.’

‘Very nice to meet you too Anon,’ Velvet said before turning around and signal you to follow again with a hoof, ‘come on, I have some nice snacks waiting for us in the living room.”

After having sat down at the dinner table, with Twilight taking a seat next to you, and having some of those delicious snacks, Velvet turned to you, ‘So, how long have you known my daughter?’ she asked, a slight smirk forming on her muzzle, ‘And did you have some “fun” with her already?’

The troll is strong with this one, You thought with a smirk of your own as you heard Twilight giving her mom an ear full of how inappropriate the last question was, though she couldn’t stop the blush from forming on her cheeks.

‘We don’t know each other for long,’ You said, your smirk changing into a grin, ‘but that didn’t stop her from wanting to “study” me.’

Both mares looked at you wide eyed, ‘Anon!’ Twilight yelled as Velvet let out a small giggle, ‘I wanted to study your species, not... that.’

‘Well dear,’ Velvet said, ‘if you’re going to study his species, you got to study that too.’ she then looked at you with seductive eyes, ‘But if you don’t, I would like to “study” it.’

Twilight was looked slack jawed at her mother, but you had some fuel left in your troll tank, ‘I’m game, when do you want to start?’

‘Shouldn’t Twilight be oké with this first?’ Velvet said with a sultry voice as she leaned closer to you.

‘Go right ahead and ask her,’ You said as you leaned in as well, ‘but I’m ready if you are.’

Velvet let out a short and muffled giggle, ‘You know Anon,’ she said as she got even closer, ‘we’ve got a saying here: If you tease a mare, there’s a kiss you must share.’

‘If I was teasing a mare, I would.’ You countered as you brought your face mere inches from the other.

The two of you stared the other down for a few seconds, before bursting into laughter.

After the two of you calmed down and caught your breath, you heard sniffling coming from your side.

Turning toward the source, you saw that there was a small puddle that had formed on the table, right under the hanging muzzle of Twilight, the tears still streaming down it as she kept sniffling.

You turned to Velvet with a worried expression on your face, who in turn gave you the same look before turning to her daughter, ‘Twilight dear, what’s the matter?’

But instead of looking at her mother, she turned to you with sadness in her eyes, ‘Y-you don’t think I’m a-a mare?’

‘What?’ You said in surprise, ‘I never said that you weren’t.’

‘B-but you j-just did.’ Twilight said confused.

‘Wait honey,’ Velvet interjected, ‘did you think those last things we said, were aimed at you?’

‘I-it wasn’t?’

‘No sweetie, ‘Velvet said in a comforting tone, ‘those were meant for Anon and me, and was meant to be in good fun, right Anon?’

You nodded, ‘Yeah Twilight, it was never meant to hurt your feelings.’

‘B-but,’ Twilight started, still sounding unsure, ‘m-my mom, and.. and then you.. a-and the both of you... and I was-‘

You saw that she was getting even more flustered, so only one thing came to mind that you could do to make what happened, a little bit better for her.

You placed your hand under her chin, silencing her in the process, and turned her to face you, giving her small kiss on the nose.

Once you sat back up again, you said, ‘Better?’ getting a nod from Twilight as her cheek turned beet red.

Velvet let out a sigh of relief and smiled , ‘It was never our intention to make you feel bad, but I do have one question,’ she changed her smile into a smirk, ‘how was it?’

‘Mom!’

--> Twilight <--

Note to self, never put Anon and your mom in the same room ever again. Also, never get Anon to drive back home the fastest way possible, at least while you’re in the car with him.

After you came back in Ponyville, And the queasiness from the ride back left your body, you went to find your friends, with Anon tagging along next to you, still baring the smug smile he had ever since the two of you left your mother. That stupid smirk. That stupid sly smirk on his lips with which he kissed you on the-

You blinked a couple of times as you felt your cheeks burn and you shook your head feverishly to get that memorable mental image out of your head, with little of no success.

Luckily, you saw Applejack and Rainbow Dash arguing with each other, which was a welcoming distraction, ‘Hey girls, what’s going on?’

The two stopped their conversation and turned towards you. Only for Rainbow to perk up when seeing Anon and flied towards him, ‘Hey Anon, you’re a racer right?’

‘Yes?’ he said, sounding a bit cautious.

‘Then would you kindly tell Applejack that winning by an inch is still winning.’

It took you a second to remember what she was talking about, ‘Oh right, today was the running of the leaves. How did it go?’

‘Wait, the running of the what now?’ Asked Anon.

‘Oh right, you don’t know that yet,’ You said, happy to explain it all to your human friend, ‘allow me to explain.’

‘It’s a race where ponies run and the running makes the leafs fall of the trees.’ Rainbow Dash interjected quickly.

‘Rainbow, I wanted to tell him.’ You said with a huff whilst giving the pegasus a angry glare.

‘Oh, come on Twilight,’ Rainbow said with a wave of her hoof, ‘nopony is interested in one of your lectures, besides,’ she then flew next to Anon and placed her hoof around his shoulder, ‘the opinion of a REAL racer is what’s needed here.’

You were about to let Rainbow have an ear full, but Anon was faster, ‘I'd like to help Dash, but I wasn’t there. So here is what you gonna do, you’re going to tell me every detail of the race with the help of your aerial acrobatics as visual aid.’

Rainbow beamed and dashed of into the sky as she started explaining. But instead of paying the pegasus any attention as she got more wound up in her story, did Anon lower himself to Applejack’s height, ‘Let me guess, the both of you ended up in a tie again?’ he asked with a raised eyebrow.

Applejack nodded and he smirked as he got up to his full height again, ‘That’s all I needed to know.’

You waited in anticipation on what Anon had planned for Rainbow for when she was done with her story.

You didn’t have to wait that long for Rainbow to finish her tale and for Anon to walk up to her, applauding her for her telling skills, making her puff out her chest in pride.

Anon spoke softer as he got closer to Rainbow, to the point that you couldn’t hear what’s being said.

But he then took one of Dash’s front hoofs and started to slowly caress it, stirring something within you while watching in horror as Dash got a red blush on her cheek due to the attention.

‘You’re alright there sugar cube?’ you heard Applejack say as you saw Anon move his hand from Rainbow’s limb to her neck, her face reddening even more as he started to caress her there as well, all the while still talking to her.

‘I’m fine.’ You said through clenched teeth, never averting your gaze.

‘Ah’m sorry Twi,’ Applejack said, ‘but ah’m not buying it for one bit. Now, what’s wrong?’

You closed your eyes and let out a reluctant sigh, but as you opened your eyes and mouth to speak, you saw Anon slide his hand along the underside of Dash’s muzzle, only to give it a last flick, sending Rainbow in a backwards spin, ‘Not funny Anon!’ Rainbow called out after a rough landing on her butt and her face turned even redder, making Anon chuckle.

‘Wait, he was only playing with her?’ You asked, sounding slightly relieved.

‘Gett’n kinda jealous there Twi?’ Applejack said with a smirk.

‘N-no!’ You said a bit too quickly, earning raised eyebrow from the orange mare, ‘Oké, yes.’

--><--

You were laying in your bed, waiting for... something, but didn’t know what exactly.

Then the door to your room opened, revealing Anon standing there in the doorway with long wavy blond hair.

A part of you started to question how he got it on his head, but the majority of your brain didn’t really care as he walked toward you, climbing on your bed with a loving smile on his face once he got to the hoof end of your bed, his big frame towering above you as he stood over you with his hands right next to your head, using them to hold himself up with his big, strong arm muscles whilst looking at you with loving eyes.

After staring at each other for a moment, he lowered himself to your muzzle, pursing his lips as if going to kiss you.

Your heart pumped in anticipation of what was going to happen, your heart pounding harder and faster as he lowered himself to you in a slow movement.

Unable to wait any longer, you pursed your lips as well and moved up towards him, only to stop when a voice reached your ears, ‘You know, this is the second time tonight that I see a pony dreaming about that human.’

Looking to the side, you saw a dark blue alicorn standing there with a bemused look on her face, ‘Princess Luna? What are you doing here?’

‘Why, doing what I always do Princess Twilight,’ The Princess of the Night said, ‘watching over the dreams of all the sleeping ponies.’

‘Wait, this is a dream?’ You said, only for Anon to disappear from view in a cloud of mist a second after, confirming that it indeed was the case.

Luna nodded, ‘Indeed,’ she then placed her hoof against her chin, ‘though this one was slightly tamer than the one Rainbow Dash had with him,’ she stood back on all fours again as she mulled over Dash’s dream, ‘I must say that miss Dash seems rather.. oké with wearing skimpy latex.’ she then shuddered, ‘Or what was left of it before I intervened.’

‘W-what?’ You said, unable to comprehend what Luna was getting at.

‘Oh well,’ the Princess said, ‘sorry for intervening with your dream Princess Twilight, I will be doing now.’ with that, she lit her horn and disappeared.

You could only stare as you sat there in your now empty room, ‘What?’

Fun fact: the line

"if you tease a mare, there is a kiss you must share"

is based on a Dutch saying we have that goes like this:

Meisjes plagen is zoentjes vragen.

roughly translated it says: teasing girls is asking for kisses, so you can say this is my pony version of it.

As for Luna. Yes she's a c:yay:blocker in this fic and I regret nothing.:trollestia:

Well, that's something you don't see every day, You thought as you stood outside Fluttershy's cottage, the mare herself standing next to you with the same surprised look on her face as you did.

This all started just minutes ago in the early morning with a loud roar and screeching sounds, waking the both of you up and quickly got outside to see what's happening.

You looked toward Fluttershy, ‘So,’ you tentatively began as the red streak that was the cause of the commotion went past the cottage, ‘I guess that this isn’t something that happens out here?’

The mare shook her head slowly as she kept her eyes on the spectacle that happened in front of her home.

You turned back to the scene just in time to see the red streak pass yet again. It was doing that ever since the two of you stepped out.

Oké, You thought, getting rather annoyed after you saw it pass by a couple of times more, this needs to stop. without any warning, you took off toward the road the red blur had chosen to have its exercise on, making Fluttershy let out a gasp of shock when she saw what you were up to.

Without regarding your own safety, you stepped onto the road the thing was using, ‘Oh I can’t watch this!’ you heard Fluttershy exclaimed as you readied yourself to intercept, taking a quick glance toward the mare, you saw that she had her hooves in front of her face and was quivering slightly.

But you didn’t have enough time to do something about it, for the one you were trying to stop was on its way back and heading straight for you, Why did I think this was a good idea? you thought as you placed one foot behind you and lowered yourself into a defensive stance, holding your arms stretched and hands open in an attempt to force it to stop.

Although it didn't seem to be slowing down, in fact, it seemed to be speeding up as it got you in its sight, the distance between you and it was getting really small really fast.

You scrunch your eyes shut and looked away, preparing for it to crash into you, even going as far as to yell ‘Stop!’ even though you didn't think it would work.

But instead of feeling it crash into you, you heard the sound of it digging into the ground as it tried to stop, only feeling a light tap against your shin as it came to a halt.

You slightly turn your head back and slowly opened one eye just far enough to see, finding yourself looking at Stryker, which was perched on its usual spot on the red metallic contraption in front of you, though the corner of its mouth looked like to be turned up more as if it was smirking at you, but that could be your imagination.

You started to relax and fully face your car, which apparently became sentient overnight, or was it sapient? You didn’t know which word you needed here, all you knew that it was now moving on its own.

As you watched it, you had the strange feeling it wanted something from you. Seeing as it just listened to you, the only sentence came to mind you would normally be used on a dog, ‘Uhm, good boy?’

The effects of those few words were directly noticeable, as it did a little jump back before it lifted the trunk in the air and shook it like crazy, hearing some loose bits rattling in it.

Even though you had no clue what to do now, it looked like someone did, ‘Oh you’re just like a cute puppy aren’t you?’ Fluttershy cooed as she flew over to the car and started to pet it on the roof as if it were one of her furry creatures, the car using its engine to make a purring noise as it leaned into her touch.

Your brain was overheating itself as it went over all the thoughts running through it, but one thing kept coming back to the front of your mind, ‘How the heck did this happen!’

‘I don’t know,’ Fluttershy said as she kept petting before looking at you with a smile on her face, ‘but I bet Twilight could find it out.’

You looked worriedly at the car, on one hand, was Fluttershy right, Twilight seems to know a lot and if this is some kind of magic, she would be the one to know the most about it, but on the other hand, you didn’t want to see him be turned into some kind of science experiment or worse, that he’ll be dismantled beyond recognition.

Wait, did you just thought of it as a “him”? And are you already getting attached to it even though it’s been “alive” for just a few hours? Ugh, you don’t know if it’s this place or the cute ponies that live here, but something has to be going on around here because- DID YOU JUST THINK THAT THE PONIES ARE CUTE?!

‘Are you alright?’ Fluttershy's voice called, her soft and beautiful sounding voice snapping you out of your thoughts, making you look up and catching yourself staring into the blueish green pools that were the yellow mare's eyes, all thoughts coming to rest whilst looking into them.

That was until that voice in your head started to speak up again, Dude, your gawking at a pony… again! shaking your head slightly, you answered the mare, ‘Oh uhm, yeah I'm fine.’ you looked back at your car, which seemed to have aimed its headlights up at you as if using them as eyes, looking at you.

Taking your eyes away from the strange sight, you looked toward Fluttershy again, ‘You really think Twilight can figure out how this happened?’

‘Not sure,’ Fluttershy said truthfully, ‘but if anypony can figure out what happened, it's her.’

You nodded, even though you’ve been here for less than a week, you could tell that Twilight was one of the smartest you’ve met, heck, some of your friends back home couldn’t even change a spark plug without a manual and she created a potion of infinite fuel for the car, ‘Yeah, you’re right, lets go.’

You were about to walk towards the driver's side door, but stopped as you thought of something, ‘Uhm,’ you started as you turned toward Fluttershy, ‘how are we going to Twilight?’

‘What do you mean?’ Fluttershy asked.

‘Well,’ You said as you rubbed the back of your head with a hand, ’I normally would take the car,’ you continued when you looked toward it, ‘but since it's now, you know… alive, it feels weird to use it.’

Fluttershy thought for a moment before she answered, ‘We could always walk.’

The idea sends a shiver down your spine, even back home you didn’t walk that much. Heck, if you only needed to be a few doors down, you would still take the car, but unless you are willing to get behind the wheel, you'd have to man up and walk toward Twilight's castle.

You nodded toward Fluttershy, ‘Oké, let’s walk.’ and started to walk towards the castle with Fluttershy joining your side shortly after, only for you to look back to see your car standing there with its front slightly tilted to one side, like a dog that was not sure what to do.

‘Uhm,’ You started, still uncertain how to go about it, ‘you coming?’

The words were barely out of your mouth or your car got on its back wheels for a second before spurting forwards as it got back on all fours again, once caught up he started to drive circles around you and Fluttershy, happily revving its engine as it went, getting the yellow pegasus to let out a light giggle and you to stare blankly ahead, wondering if this day could get any weirder.

You shook your head and started moving again, Fluttershy and the car following soot.

--> <--

Halfway through town, you saw a certain pink pony happily bouncing your way, a big smile on her face that went from ear to ear while getting closer.

‘Hiya Anon,’ Pinkie exclaimed as she waived at you mid bounce, ‘hey Fluttershy,’ she said, doing the same in her next bounce toward the pegasus, ‘how are you?’

Just before you could open your mouth to say how weird it’s been, did Pinkie let out a large gasp and spurted off in a cloud of dust toward the car, ‘When did your car start to move on its own? How are you doing this?’ she asked at a neck-breaking pace as she encircled it while stopping on random spots around the car, ‘Wait, I know, remote control, nono, psychic powers, invisible rope?..’

As Pinkie continued being, well… Pinkie, you noticed something odd about the car's stance, but couldn't tell what.

But someone did, ‘Pinkie,’ Fluttershy scolded, ‘your antics are making the car uneasy.’

Pinkie let out another gasp and got in front of the car with an apologetic look on her face, ‘Oh I'm sorry Mr. car,’ and gave the front a hug, the car softly humming as it enjoyed the embrace.

But she suddenly let go and brought a hoof to her chin, ‘or is it Ms. car?’ and then looked at you, ‘Do you know?’

Your mind was telling you to keep referring the car as “it”, but your manliness got the better of you, ‘It’s a male, obviously.’ you huffed, crossing your arms in front of you.

Pinkie nodded knowingly as she sat upright and also crossed her front hooves in front of her, ‘That's what I thought too,’ she then lifted one of her front hooves into the air, ‘that's why I already thought of a name for him,’

Your eyes widened while she said that, knowing full well that if you give a living thing a name, you can get attached on it, ‘No Pinkie, don't-’

‘Dodgie!’

‘-give it a name.’ You finished softly, the warning falling on deaf ears as the now dubbed Dodgie was doing doughnuts on the street while joyfully revving his engine, Fluttershy was also very happy for him, clapping her front hooves while lifting herself a feet into the air while saying ‘That’s a wonderful name!’ in an excited tone.

You, on the other hand, were slightly annoyed, not because of the ponies not hearing your complaint, no, it was the childlike name, ‘Urg, let’s just go to Twilight’s.’

--> <--

The trip toward Friendship Castle went surprisingly well, even with the strange entourage following you, not even finding any other ponies walking about the town. It could be that it was still very early in the morning, though you bet the majority of the ponies have been shaken out of their beds thanks due to a certain car that was feeling very energetic.

After ten minutes of searching, were you able to find Twilight in the study of the massive Castle, the pony in question was looking very frazzled as if she hasn't had enough sleep.

Reminding yourself to ask about it later, you told her about what happened and that Fluttershy suggested going to her in the hopes to find an answer to what’s going on.

A few teleports later, you, Dodgie and the rest of your pony friends found themselves in some kind of lab somewhere below the castle.

It didn’t take Twilight long before your car was all wired up to all kinds of electronic devices you’d never thought to find in this world, but here they are, beeping and bopping while collecting their data.

While the whole research was going on, you started to have mixed feeling about it, on one side, you really want to know how all of this came to be, on the other, you felt kinda bad for Dodgie, even though he doesn’t have any facial expressions, you can still tell he doesn't like this being done to him.

Hang on Dodgie, You thought, just a little longer. and looked toward Twilight, who seemed to have a field day, running from machine to machine while dragging a quill and very long piece of parchment in her magic that was filled with notes, mumbling to herself whilst writing things down as she went.

--> <--

It took Twilight almost half an hour till she removed all the wires that were stuck on Dodgie with her magic before making her way toward you, looking even more tired than when you saw her earlier.
Pinkie and Fluttershy, the former sitting on a high pile of crates, how she got up there you had no clue, and was watching the chaos with a smile while the later was sitting in front of Dodgie as she tried to calm him, got up from their respective spots and made their way next to you.

Once her friends joined up, did Twilight clear her throat before starting, ‘So, after various tests which include: magical properties, fluid analysis, structural in-’

‘Uhm Twilight,’ You interjected, ‘Not that it's interesting or anything, but could you get to the point?’

‘Sorry,’ Twilight said with an apologetic smile, then cleared her voice again and continued, ‘to put it in leamares terms, the Timberwolf “blood” that was splattered on your car had magical properties that once it was absorbed, gave it life.’

Able to get the general idea, you nodded in understanding before tentatively asking, ‘Soo.. is possible to reverse it?’

A collective gasp from all the mares around you made you take a step back in surprise, Fluttershy being the first to speak, ‘Y-you would really do that?’

‘I was just wondering if it was possible!’ You exclaimed as you brought your hands up in defense.

‘Well yes,’ Twilight answered as she thought it through, though you could hear the slight disappointment in her voice, ‘it's possible to abstract the magic, but the choice is yours.’

You looked at the other two mares in the room, Pinkie seems to be giving you a stone hard glare as she frowned, the whole look was actually kinda frightening and you quickly moved to Fluttershy, but that was even worse, her big eyes were now even bigger as she looked at you with tears starting to form, Oh crap.

Battle between royal and racer (part one)

You let go of Twilights hoof and she did the same as Rainbow has done, placing it on her chest and rub it slightly with her other hoof.

She then turned to the multi-coloured pegasus, 'You're right Rainbow, it does feel weird.'

The pegasus just gave a look that said "I told you so" and was content on keeping it until you spoke, 'I guess the starting line is at the train station?'

'Yes,' Twilight said and then pointed a hoof toward the outskirts of town, 'the station is over there and the finish is in Canterlot.' she finished, pointing at the peaks of some mountains in the north.

'Oké,' You said as you were looking in the direction she was pointing, you then look back at her, 'Does any of you have a road map I can borrow so I can go over witch route to take?'

The four mares thought for a moment, until Pinkie piped up, 'Ow ow, I think AJ has one!'

They all nodded, but you raised an eyebrow, 'AJ?'

'It is short for Applejack,' Twilight explained, 'she is another friend that lives on a farm called Sweet Apple Acres on the other edge of town,
she most definitely have a map you can borrow.'

'Oké, and how can I get to Sweet Apple Acres?' You asked.

'I will bring you.' Said Fluttershy, she then hid behind a lock of her mane, 'I mean, if you want to.'

'I'd like that,' you said with a smile, 'shall we go right away?'

'B-b-but, what about my turn in your car?' Stuttered Twilight.

'I have a race to get ready for.' You said with a smirk, 'Speaking of witch, what time is the race going to start?'

'I'm not going to tell you, until I get to ride with you.' Twilight huffed.

You just shrug, 'Fine, that means it will be a time-trial race.'

'Time.. trial?' Asked Twilight.

'It basically means that who ever sets the best time, wins.' Explained Rainbow, witch earned a questionable eyebrow from everyone. 'What?' She said in milled annoyance, 'The Wonderbolts do them all the time.'

You wanted to ask Rainbow about these "Wonderbolts", but thought it was a better question for later, 'What ever the case, she's right.' You said, on to witch Rainbow gave a knowing smirk, 'The one that needs the least amount of time to finish, wins the race.'

'That sounds fair,' Said Twilight, 'but it would be more exiting if we go hoof to hoof. I'll need to check the time schedule of the train, but it would definitely be tomorrow. I will know when you return.'

The both of you agreed on that and you turn back to Fluttershy, 'Are you ready to go Fluttershy?'

She nodded and the both of you were on your way.

---->> <<----

It took about ten minutes to get to the fence of Sweet Apple Acres, there were apple trees as far as your eyes could see.

Getting along the road though the rows of apple trees to what seems to be heading to a big, red and wooden building.

Getting closer to it, you see it seems to resembles a barn out of an old western. It was three story's tall, with the highest being a little tower with a weathercock on top, but instead of a rooster, there was an apple on top. The window frames are white and most of the windows had a planter hanging under it filled with flowers. One of the big double doors in the front was slightly open, probably indicating that someone was in there.

You came up to the double doors and Fluttershy knocked on the door that was still closed, 'Hello?' She said cautiously, 'Is anypony home?'
A big red pony with a blond mane came to the door, 'Oh, hello Big Mac,' Fluttershy said. By the sound of that name, you couldn't stop the images of a hamburger of a fast food chain from entering your mind, 'is your sister inside?' She asked.

'Nope.' Big Mac said with a heavy male voice.

'She's probably busy in the west field, right?' Fluttershy asked again.

'Eeyup.'

'Oké, Thanks Big Mac, we will look her up there.' She said and the stallion nodded.

When the two of you went on the west path, you look back at the now empty door, 'I think I like him already.' you said amused, you then turn to Fluttershy, 'But how did you know that Apple Jack was in the west field?'

'She was telling us about it yesterday.' She explained.

'Ah.' You said with that piece of information and followed the path until you hear a faint grunt, followed by a 'thump' and then a serie of things falling on the ground.

Getting closer to the sounds, you see a pony near an apple tree aligned with wooden baskets filled with apples, who looks more like the ones from your world. She has an orange coloured coat and a blond mane and tail that where bound at the ends by red rubber bands. The only thing that wouldn't make her a "your world kind of pony" was the Stetson hat she was wearing on her head.

'Hello Applejack,' Fluttershy said, trotting up to her friend, 'I hope we're not interrupting you?'

'Howdy Fluttershy,' Applejack said with a southern accent, as she hugged the pegasus, 'Y'all ain't interrupting me, I needed a break anyway, now what can I do you for?' she released the hug and than looked at you with a raised eyebrow, 'And what the heck is that kind of critter ya got there?'

'Well, his name is Anon and he is the reason why we are here.' Flutter shy said.

'Well uh,' Applejack said in mild confusion, rubbing the back of her neck with a hoof before continuing, 'I-it's nice to know ya Anon.' she then stretch a hoof out toward you.

You instinctively wanted to grab it, but you were able to hold back and thought back to the other two ponies you did that with and didn't like it that much, you quickly thought of an other form of greeting and only one came to mind. You formed your hand in a fist and then gave her hoof a bump with it, like a form of fist bump you'll do with good friends.

Her smile indicated that she was fine with it, making you smile in relief as you said, 'It is nice to know you to Applejack.'

Applejack looked baffled at you before she looked at Fluttershy, 'H-he can talk? How?'

After explaining her about how you were found and what had happened since then, her confused expression changed into one of understanding.

'So, that was that car of yours that made that ruckus coming from town not moments ago.' She stated, to witch you nodded and she continued, 'And now Twilight wants to race ya, her on the Ponyville Express and you in the car and that's why ya'll need a road map.'

You nodded again and said, 'That's right. So, do you have a map I can borrow?'

'Of course I got one you can borrow sugarcube,' Applejack said as she made her way back toward the building, 'it's at the home stead, but I can't believe Twilight wants to race ya, that's more Rainbow's style.'

'She probably wants to see if I could really beat the train, and if I can't, that she can rub it in.' You chuckle.

The two laughed slightly, 'Yeah well, that's Twilight for ya,' Said Applejack, 'always doing sciency stuff and ain't afraid to lecture ya about it when ya'll are wrong.'

'But she helps us as well with what she knows,' Defended Fluttershy, 'she even saved us a couple of times, she is a really good friend.'

'Indeed she is,' Said Applejack with a nod, 'I think I'm gonna join her tomorrow for your race, it sounds to be a hoot load of fun.'

Coming up to the double doors again, did Applejack turn to you, 'If ya'll wait here, then I'll be right back with a map from Ponyville to Canterlot.'

When she entered, you hear her call out, 'Hey Big Mac, do ya know where the roadmaps are at?!'

'Eeyup.'

---->> <<----

It didn't take her long to get the map and gave it to you, 'Here ya go, this should do the trick.' Applejack said, 'I'll be coming with ya to get the time for when the race starts, but right after, I need to get back to my chores.'

You and Fluttershy nodded in understanding and you open the map for a quick glance. At first site, it seems to be a very detailed map. You could see Ponyville, Canterlot and the roads in between or went of to parts unknown.

You carefully refolded the map and put it in one of the back pockets of your pants, 'Thanks again for the map Applejack, of what I could see, would it be a great help.'

'Ah, no sweat sugarcube,' she said with a dismissive wave of her hoof, 'now lets get to Twi's place.'

---->> <<----

As you return to Twilight's castle, you see the lavender mare scolding Rainbow Dash, who was sitting in the drivers seat of your car and Pinkie Pie was sitting on her rump, looking at them with worry.

It seems, since you were gone, that a new pony had joined the group. The white unicorn with a curly royal purple mane and tail was eyeing the lines of the car with trained eyes.

'Is that red thing yours?' Asked Applejack with disbelief, pointing a hoof toward the car.

'Yep,' You said, 'that's the car I told you about.'

As Applejack kept gauging, you silently crept up to Twilight and Rainbow.

You then leaned with one arm on the roof of the car and lowered your head to the level of the two mares, you then turn to the cyan pegasus, 'Sitting comfy Rainbow?'

'Yea!' She exclaimed, looking at you, 'It's really-' she stopped what she was about to say and stuttered , 'Anon.. I.. sitting.. uhm, bye!' with saying those last words, she zoomed out of the car and into the sky, leaving a rainbow trail behind.

You watched the rainbow trail for a while, until Pinkie spoke, 'You're not mad at Rainbow, are you?'

'Nah,' You said as you look at Pinkie with a smile, 'but she's not out of the woods yet.'

As the pink mare giggled slightly, you turn to Twilight, 'So, who's the new pony?' you said, pointing at the white unicorn.

'That's Rarity,' Twilight said, she turned and faced the white mare, 'Rarity, this is Anon, he is the owner of this machine.'
Rarity look up in your direction and smiled as she made her way toward you.

'Oh, I am so terrible sorry, where are my manners,' Said Rarity, her feminine voice had a trans-Atlantic English accent, 'it's a pleasure meeting you Anon.' she lifted her front leg up and kept her hoof in a horizontal position, like a lady would do as she wanted a gentleman to kiss it. But you just placed a flat hand under her hoof and lightly bobbed it up and down instead.

She didn't seem to mind your greeting and put her hoof down as you took your hand back, 'Rarity?' you said as the name sounded familiar,
'Wait, didn't that Spike fellow went to see you?'

'Why yes,' Said Rarity, 'he told me about you and this machine,' she pointed to the car, 'and when I heard that beastly roar, I had to see what was happening.'

'But I have to ask,' She contineud, 'where did you come up with these amazing lines on this machine? Their simply divine!'

You rub the back of your neck, 'I just bought it at the car dealership like this.'

'Really?' Rarity said, 'I can't believe that Spiky-Wiky is afraid of something that looks this marvelous.'

Tried as you might, you couldn't stop a little snort of laughter from escaping when you heard the nickname of the little guy.

'I think he is more afraid of me than the car,' You said after you composed yourself, 'but thanks for the complement.'

'You are welcome.' Rarity said with a smile.

You turn towards Twilight again, 'So, did you had any luck with finding a good time to start the race?'

'Yes I have,' She said with a hoof to her chest, 'The race will start at seven o'clock in the morning on the dot.'

'Uh, sugarcube?' Applejack said with worry, 'What if the train is late?'

'I have full confidence that it is on time.' Said Twilight with a cocky smile.

'Oké,' you said with a shrug, 'but I need a place to stay till then.'

'You can stay with me,' Fluttershy said quickly before shying away again, 'I mean, if you want to.'

Everyone looked at the mare in surprise.

'Sure,' you said after a while, 'Thanks Fluttershy.'

'Well,' Said Twilight, 'with that out of the way, I guess I'll see you tomorrow for the big race.'

You nodded and turned to Fluttershy, 'You go on ahead Fluttershy, I will take my car and drive it to your home.'

She nodded and the both of you said your goodbyes to the other mares.

As Fluttershy made her way home, you got into the car and drove the same way at a low speed so not to frighten any of the ponies.

Once at Fluttershy's house, you got out and locked the car with the key's remote as you enter the burrowed home of the pegasus.

Fluttershy was already busy with feeding the animals their dinner when you came in and as you close the door she turned to you, 'Hello again Anon, what would you like for dinner?'

'What do you have?' You asked.

'Oh, uhm.. I am not that great a cook,' She said blushing slightly, 'but I can make some salad and sandwiches.'

'That sounds great.' You said reassuringly, 'but at least let me help you with feeding the animals.'

'That would be great, thank you.' Fluttershy said and after the feeding, she made her way in to the kitchen and after a few minutes came back out with two plates with two sliced sandwiches on each and two bowls of salad that she balanced on her wings.

You sat down on the couch and took a bowl and plate from her, getting close to her muzzle as you did so, 'Thank you.' you said with a smile.

'No problem.' Fluttershy squeaked with a blush, making a dent in your wall versus cuteness.

The dinner went by quietly and after finishing, you helped out with the dishes.

Once done, the both of you got back in the living room and to the couch.

You then remembered that you still need to have a better look at the map you got from Applejack.

You took it out of the back pocket of your pants and sat back down on the couch, 'Almost forgot about this.' you said waving the folded map through the air and unfolded it before placing it on the coffee table.

With your finger you followed the route between Ponyville and Canterlot, memorizing every turn. Luckily, it seems their aren't many forks in the road, making it easy to memorize.

'Do you really think that you can beat the train Anon?' Fluttershy asked as you were looking over the map.
'I think so Fluttershy,' You said, sitting upright again, 'but I guess we'll find out tomorrow.'

You had memorized the route, so you folded the map back up again and placed it back where you got it from.

You gave your upper body a stretch, 'I think I'm going to sleep early today,' you said, relaxing from your stretch, 'I'll need to be well rested for tomorrow.'

'Well, you can take my bed if you want,' Said Fluttershy, 'I'll sleep here on the couch.'

You look wide eyed at the mare, 'I can't let you do that,' you said, 'I'm oké with sleeping on the couch. Besides,' you smiled at her, 'I think your bed is a bit to small for me.'

'O-oké, if you are really sure.' Fluttershy said, sounding a bit uncertain.

'Yes, I'm sure.' You said and chuckled a bit, 'Why, I was pretty comfy when I was passed out on your couch this morning.'

The mare giggled slightly, 'I guess I'll go to sleep as well, Good night Anon.' she said as she made her way up the stairs.

'Good night Fluttershy.'

---->> <<----

When you woke up was it still somewhat dark out side, the first rays of the sun seeped though the window.

Even though you needed to get up early today, you still accurse your biological alarm clock for always waking you up so early and still feeling slightly tired.

You got up from the couch and gave your body a stretch.

You relax and look around the house, it seems you are the only one up yet and thought of something to do until Fluttershy is awake.

You look at the couch, then at you arms and an idea came to mind.

You took of the shirt you were wearing and lay it over the armrest, you then place you hands on the ground as well as placing your feet on the couch and start doing some push-ups.

'One... Two... Three-'

---->> Fluttershy <<----

You awoke to the light coming through the window and lighting your face, you let out a yawn as you stretch your body on the soft bed and listened to the sound of your surroundings.

You hear a little skirmish coming from downstairs, That's probably one of my animal friends, you thought as you jumped down from the bed and headed for the stairs, the poor thing must have gotten hungry and is looking for food.

But you stopped at the bottom of the stairs as you looked at the creature that was awake.

'Oh.. my.' You said, barely more audible than a whisper, as you looked at the creature that was doing a fitness exercise, shirtless.

You could see the muscles under the less furred skin of his upperarms tence and relax as he went.

For some reason you couldn't look away, as you have seen both Bulk Biseps and Iron Will do the same exercise in front of you and didn't captivate you this much, maybe it's because of the lack of fur.

You feel your cheeks heating up as your eyes went over his contracted armmussles to his eyes that were looking at you with a lifely shimmer, wait.. WHAT!

'Hello Fluttershy, good morning.' He said as he slided his feet from the couch to the ground and stood up.

'G-good morning A-Anon,' You said, getting more flustered now that you have a better look at his bare chest, 'I-I hope you s-slept well?'

'Yes, I slept great.' He said as he put his shirt back on and once it was on, he turned back to you and raised an questionable eyebrow to you, 'But uh, what's with you wings?' he asked, pointing at them.

You feel the heat in your face even more when you see that your wings were fully extended, you then turn back to him with a sheepish smile, 'Oh, i-it's nothing,' you said trying to pool them back to your side, 'j-just a morning stretch.'

'If you say so.' he said before you got your wings back to their rightful place.

'Any how,' He said, rubbing the back of his neck with is hand, 'I think we best get ready before the race starts.'

'Oké.' You said and thought for a moment, 'Would you please set up the food for the animals? Then I will make us some breakfast, that way we will be ready in no time.'

'Sounds like a plan.'

---->> Anon <<----

After the both of you had breakfast and cleaned up, did you look at the clock.

'Wow!' You said in shock, making Fluttershy jump a bit, 'We've only got about twenty minutes left before we need to be at the train station.'

'That's oké,' Fluttershy said, 'we're done here anyway, so we can head out if you want.'

'Then let's go.' You said as you went through the front door toward the car, 'I guess I'll see you there then.'

'Wait!' She called out to you as you stood by the drivers side door, you look back at her and saw her looking at the ground as she muttered something about stop doing baby steps, she then looked back up to you as she said, 'I-is it o-oké if I go with you?'

'You really want to give it a try?' You asked.

'Yes,' She said, 'if you don't mind.'

'No, I don't mind,' You said cautiously, 'but if you change your mind when we're at the train station, then it's oké too.'

Fluttershy nodded and you helped her into the car as well as trap her in, then you got seated behind the wheel and drove toward the train station.

---->> <<----

When you arrived at the train station, you saw Twilight and the other girls waiting in front of it.

You pool up next to the lavender mare, shutdown the engine and opened your window, 'Good morning Twilight, I see you made it.'

'Yes,' she said, then glared at Rarity and Rainbow Dash as she hissed, 'no thanks to some ponies.'

Rarity just kept looking in a small mirror as Rainbow tries to stay awake.

'Any way,' Twilight said, looking back at you, 'where is Fluttershy?'

'Right here.' You said, gesturing to the passenger seat.

Twilight took a better look, 'Fluttershy?' she exclaimed with wide eyes, 'Are you going to ride with him?'

'Y-yes,' Said Fluttershy, looking at the floor, 'I didn't want to be afraid of this machine, so I asked if it was oké.'

'Are you still alright with coming with me?' You said with a worried look, ' I will be going a lot faster then just now, so if you want go with your friends, it's oké.'

'I'll be alright.' She said with a smile.

'Oké.' You said slightly worried, then turned back to Twilight, 'Are you ready to go?'

'Yes I am,' Twilight said with a smile, 'just remember, the race starts at seven sharp.'

'You better hurry to the platform then,' You said, pointing at the clock on the building, 'you only got five more minutes.'

'You're right,' she said as she also looked at the clock, 'then I guess I'll see you in Canterlot.'

You nodded to her and she made her way to the platform with her friends in tow.

-

--->> Twilight <<----

You stood on the platform, as you are waiting for the train to come.

'Uh, Twilight?' Asked Rainbow, giving a loud yawn after, 'I know the train is mostly on time, but shouldn't it be here right now?'

'Hmm,' You thought out loud as you looked at the clock again, 'You're right Rainbow, normally it would be. There must be a slight delay, I think I should let Anon know.'

'But what if the train comes when you're there?' Said Pinkie, 'If it's already late, then I don't think we can hold it so you can get on.'

'Then I simply teleport on.' You said with a smile.

'No offence darling, but your teleports tend to go erratic when you're in a hurry.' Rarity countered.

You wanted to object to that, but as the bell of the clock rang for the hour, you hear the roar of the car and the skidding of it's wheels as it took off.

You feel your anxiety grow, 'H-he left, and the train isn't even here yet.'

'I tried to warn ya Twi,' Applejack said, 'but all we can do now, is wait.'

'Your right AJ,' you said, trying to relax, 'I just hope the train comes soon.'

So you waited.

And waited.

And waited some more, until a minute has past, you finally hear the train coming.

When it stopped at the platform, you entered the railcar. But not before giving the conductor a angry glare, making him jump back slightly in fear.

When you and your friends were seated, did the train leave the station and headed to Canterlot.
