Blackness...

That was all I could see as I hovered in what could only be described as a black void.

There was nothing.

No sound.

No visuals.

Not even any smells.

Was I in the right place?

Is this supposed to happen or did something happen that sent me somewhere else?

I thought to myself, as I drifted there by myself.

My skin started feeling weird as time passed. Feeling a little...itchy.

I soon found myself scratching my arm. Having nothing else better to do at the time, so why not...?

But as I itched, I felt...hairy?

It felt there was a large patch of hair on my arm.

I looked down at my arm, only to immediatly flinch at seeing a large patch of hair on my arm. My eyes widening at the sight!

''What the-?!''

I exclaimed holding my arm out in front of me. Watching as the hair spread across my arm. Growing particulary bushy around my hand.

''Whoa! This is...weird. Like, really weird!''

I remarked, but the weirdness had only begun...!

Losing all feeling in my fingers, my eyes widened a second time as I watched my fingers and hand merge together into hooves.
The same happened in my feet, where my toes merged together with my foot into a round, flat hoof. Identical to my hands.

My whole body began shrinking. Morphing into a new form, whilst bones and internal organs re-arranged themselves to become more suited for the creature I was becoming.

Despite hovering in darkness, I was forced forwards onto all fours. Standing up on all fours as my body re-arranged itself again, but more in an external senss.

However, my body suddenly tensed as I felt something in my crotch. Being only able to bite my lip as my penis was sucked into my body, and molded into a new vagina. Officially, turning me into a woman...or more accuratley; a mare.
My stance soon changed from a bipede into a quadrupede.

My face stretched outwards. Forming an elongated muzzle, while the ears became pointed and relocated to atop my head. I grew long and pronounced eyelashes.

Out from both my head and backside a mane and tail sprang forth. A mane/tail that were both the same tan color and resembled churned butter (though, i'm fairly certain it could've also been cream).

The rest of what I was now convinced to be fur continued covering my body. Turning a bright shade of pink.

I was now fully a mare...!

But unfortunatly, everything went dark, yet again, though, I could've hardly cared at this point.

My transformation was finished, which meant there was only one thing left; travel to Equestria!

**

Hours later, I finally opened my eyes again. Only to immediatly regreat my decision as sunlight shined in my eyes!

Stinging to the point where I clenched my eyes shut.

I let the light shine on my eyelids for a few seconds before finally opened my eyes again. This time there was no problem.

I slowly rose up on my feet-er-hooves.

Managing it pretty well, though, I dread trying to move with four legs instead of only two.

I guess humans are spoiled, but then again its not like you spend your whole life training to walk on four legs in case you turn into a four-legged cartoon horse. That'd jut be silly.

''Now, where am I?''

I asked aloud. Hearing my new voice for the first time.

It sounded so much more high-pitched and soft than it did before, but i'd turned into a woman-rrrgh-mare so no surprise there.

Turning my head, I looked around the large room i'd awoken inside. Staring at the tall walls and ceiling.

Noticing a large hole in the ceiling, through which the sunlight shined into the room.

''Hmmm. I may be wrong, especally since we've never seen any other ruined castles in the show. My best option is that its the Everfree Forest ruins...''

**

Actually, I wasn't too far off from that being the case.

For after an hour of making my way through the old ruins I finally found my way to the front entrance...

And yes, that strange thing that held the Elements of Harmony (when they were stone orbs) was still there.

I trotted outside and smiled at seeing the Everfree Forest.

Unfortunatly, this meant that I was trapped inside the forest...and the sun was starting to set.

But fortunatly, I noticed a nearby bridge I could use to cross. So at least I wasn't stranded here for the night.

I quickly followed the dirt path that lead towards the bridge, and crossed it.

Once on the other side, I turned my head and looked back towards ruins one last time before heading into the forest.

Not sure if i'd come back...assuming I actually make it out of the forest!

While the trip itself was rather uneventful, I couldn't stop shaking these thoughts that I was being watched.

Big glowing eyes that stared at me, a defenseless mare, whose not even a Unicorn or a Pegasus. Just an Earth Pony.

It was the most paranoid, eerie, and creepy i've ever felt before in my entire life!

Causing me to question how i'd been so calm when going for a walk, back when I was a human!

Oh right, because I didn't have hooves but arms, and could defend myself if anything did attack me.

Oh, How times change!

I tried to control my paranoia. Keep it in check by repeatedly telling myself ''Its fine! Its nothing! Just breathe! Breathe...''

Inhaling deep breaths, which should help ease my breathing as well. Which in turn should help calm me down.

I stopped moving, and closed my eyes.

''You can do this. It's just a walk through a forest, admittedly, a very creepy one, but one you're able to get through.''

I told myself in an attempt to motivate myself to keep going.

Though, with my eyes closed, I was unaware that a pair of eyes appeared.

Having heard my voice, and been drawn towards it.

The eyes narrowed. Occasionally blinking as their owner watched me.

Examining me, and running its eyes down across my svelte equine form.

Soon narrowing its brows pleased.

I opened my eyes again, and continued on my way. Smiling at my little self-motivation.

The rest of my trek through the forest was from that point onwards uneventful.

Allowing me to reach the end of the forest much quicker now that my own fear and paranoia wasn't holding me back anymore.

''Finally, i'm outta the for-''

WHACK!

THUMP!

Before I could even finish my sentence, I was suddenly hit on the back of my head.

Knocking me out cold, as I collapsed onto the ground.

During the last few seconds of conciousness, I was able to glimpse a dark silhouette with white eyes standing over me.

**

For the second time in only a few hours, I gently pry my eyes open after my conciousness starts u again.

''Mhrrrmm''

I moan as I shift around on the matress i'm laying on.

Groaning as the sunlight stings my eyes. Which makes me turns away from the light, and pull the covers up over my head.

Protecting my eyes from the light.

The matress underneath me, creaks as I move.

I close my eyes and nuzzle my pillow.

My eyes immediatly shoot open at realizing i'm laying in a bed, and my body thrusts up off the bed.

I sit up-right on the bed, but immediatly starts examining my surroundings.

My eyes quickly darts back and forth across the room.

Originally wide and terrified, but my fear soon fades away at seeing that i'm in a normal bedroom.

Though, that only calms me temporarily.

I'm still very much concerned about where I am, and who found me in the first place.

Strange. Its not the Silence of the Lambs-esque dungeon I was expecting to wake up to, but instead the bedroom of (what looks to be) a cottage

However, despite my relief of not waking up in Buffalo Bill's little dungeon area, i'm still pretty nervous about where I am.s

Nobody just wakes up in another person's bed unless you were abducted...or partook in sex, but I don't remember meeting and hooking up with someone or anyone for that matter.

I push the covers off me, and stand up on the bed.

Hearing the matress creak underneath me, even I as trott towards the edge of the bed.

I extend my hooves down towards the floor, and gently ease myself down onto all fours.

I extend my hooves, letting them hang off the edge of the bed, gently nudging myself forward on the matress. I roll out of bed, and manage to land on my hooves.

Seeing that all that walking-er-trotting through the ruins and forest wasn't in vain, I nodded approveingly.

I turned towards the door, before turning my body around, and trotted towards it.

Opening the door with my hoof, though, I have no idea how I was able to turn the knob with my hooves, but whatever, peeked my head out, looking in both directions before noticing a couple stairs that went down, which I immediatly frowned at.

Stairs...Why'd it have to be stairs?

I slowly approached the stairs, my expression becoming less and less happy at the sight of them.

N'awww, shit! I groaned, counting ten steps.

I really wish there was another way, but unfortunatly I couldn't see one.

Clenching my eyes shut, I inhaled a deep breath, exhalling it softly, before opening my eyes again, and staring down at the bottom of the stairs.

Extending a hoof, I held it in the air for a couple seconds, staring down the stairs.

Pleasedon'tletmefallPleasedon'tletmefallPleasedon'tletmefall!

Slowly, I lowered my hoof, planting it on the first step...only to suddenly be meet with my grip slipping underneath me, causing me to lose balance, and tumbled down the stairs!

Pretty soon, I lay on the floor at the bottom of the stairs, looking back up the stairs towards the top.

My eyes narrowing as the thought, God, I suck, popped into my head, which was very soon rubbed by me bringing my hoof up to touch my aching head.

''Oh my goodness!'' A voice exclaims, my ears twitch, and eyes shot open at hearing the voice. ''Are you alright?!''

The voice is obviously male, and he's showing real concern for me, I mean, who wouldn't if a random stranger fell down a flight of stairs in one's home?

Sitting up on the floor, I slowly raise my head, and look up to see the speaker is a stallion, which in itself wasn't all that surprising since i'd already heard his voice...however, what was interesting, and immediatly caught my eye, was the stallion's mane and coat color.

The stallion had a butter-yellow coat, with a pink mane, that alone tells me all I need to know to deduce his identity.

My eyes widen at the realization, looking up at him with a wide-eyed, shocked expression.

N-no, that's can't be... Is that-...is he Fluttershy's male counterpart?! My mind is officially blown!

''H-here...'' He interrupts my thoughts, extending his hoof to me, snapping my from my shocked stupor.

Shaking my head, I extend my hoof to him, takking his, allowing him to help me back up on my hooves again.

Once standing again, I immediatly look into his eyes, and once I do, it's impossible to look away from his smiling, but still timid face staring back.

''Are you okay?'' he asks. ''That looked like a rather nasty fall you had back there.'' His voice was dripping with concern for me, which I tried to hold back a blush, but found it increasingly difficult to do so whilst staring at his face.

Even as a stallion ''she'' looked freakin' adorable!

My only response was to continually blink at him, finding it hard to say anything to him.

''Uh...I-i'm B-Butterscotch,'' he stuttered, sounding just as timid as ever.

Perhaps he was struggling to talk to me cause I was a mare, and I doubt many mares came around his cottage seeking him out.

''I-I found you near the outskirts of the Everfree Forest of all places...wh-where you were being attacked by a Manticore!'' His expression quickly shifted to one of fear, holding up his hoof to his muzzle, my eyes widening, and expression becoming down-right terrified! ''I managed to get you away from it's sharp teeth and claws, but you were already beaten rather badly. I brought you to Dusk Shine, and while he managed to heal your wounds with his magic, I voluntered to watch over you for the night, and tend to you in case you woke up...which you have,'' he said, pointing his hoof right at me.

I, however, was just stunned into silence, horrified at being told that i'd been attacked by a fracking Manticore! Though, it was kinda cool to hear that i'd been saved by Flutter-gah!-Butterscotch, now that was incredible! I almost wish i'd been awake to see it!

''T-thank you, Butterscotch,'' I stuttered, still shocked at his recollection of last night's events. ''I-I knew something was chasing me as I left...b-but I never imagined it would be a Manticore of all things! I mean, I know they're dangerous, but that seems bold, even for them.''

''Oh yes, but this one looked a lot older...a-and much scarier than normal ones,'' he nodded.

''Yeah, I bet, and i'm still just so surprised to hear that it was you of all ponies who managed to have the guts to save me from it!'' I held out my hoof, pointing at him.

Immediatly after saying that, he raised a brow, giving me a suspecious look.

''What exactly is that suppoed to mean?''

Oh shit! I've pissed him off!

''S-sorry, I-I didn't mean to offend you...!'' I exclaimed, holding up my hooves defensively, slowly backing away from him. ''I-I've heard you're more of a...softer, more shy, timid pony,'' I elaborated for him. ''I wasn't trying to offend, just telling you what i've heard!''

''Oh...well, I-I may get a little scared sometimes, but that doesn't mean that I won't step up and help somepony if they're in danger,'' he replied.

''Yeah,'' I nodded. ''...but still, thanks again for saving my flank out there.'' I nudged my head towards the window, indicating the Everfree Forest.

''Y-you're welcome,'' he squaked, lowering his head a bit, and while a doing a terrible job of covering it up, I noticed him blushing a bit through his hair, and smiled at him.

For several minutes, the room was filled with nothing but awkward silence, as neither of us could come up with anything to say to the other, a silence that was eventually broken by me when I spoke up, trying to change the subject.

''Well...um...I hate to sound like i'm trying to get away from you as soon as possible, cause i've really enjoyed talking to you,'' I said, turning around, and despite my body facing the door, my eyes were looking at his face, ''-...but I really should be gettin' on my way. I don't want to be burden you anymore than I already have.''

''Oh, you're not being a burden at all,'' he immediatly spoke up again, ''I-in fact, i've very much enjoyed having somepony staying at my cottage. Will you at least allow me to be a gracious host and invite you to attend breakfeast with me?''

''Oh...um...I-'' I stuttered, struggling to come up with any kind of an excuse to give him.

GROWL GRUMBLE

Both our eyes widened at my surprisingly loud, and very hungry belly, both our eyes looking down at it, mine in particular! There had been mornings when I would get hungry, but never had I gotten this hungry before. I even found it hard to resist blushing as it happened.

I slowly looked up, staring at him with a horrified expression, as if he'd seen me naked or something. Apperantly, he thought so too, as he soon blushed too!

Bringing my left hoof up to my stomach, I gently touched my thin barrel, softly rubbing it back and forth, though, for as thin as I was, I felt hunger pains building themselves up within me, threatening to begin tormenting me all the way to Ponyville if I left the best alternative to satisfy my hunger.

''Guess you won't be eating alone, then,'' I chuckled, procuring a faint smile, ''-...as it seems i've become afflicted with hunger pains.'' Joking like this was uncomfortable, I felt awkward with every word uttered.

''Well, there's only cure for that; breakfeast.'' With a smile, he turned around, and headed into the kitchen.

I hesitated following him, just sitting there and staring towards the kitchen for a few minutes.

''Believe me, Butterscotch, as soon as i've had breakfeast, you can be certain that I will not trouble you anymore, so you can enjoy the rest of the day without somepony to look after!'' I called into the kitchen, before standing up, and trotted in after him.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, though, I suddenly froze, again, my eyes widened, staring at a table, which by the looks of it, was already made ready with a rather hefty breakfeast!

''You'd already made breakfeast?''

''Y-yes,'' he replied sheepishly. ''I didn't know if you were going to join me or not, so I made enough just to be on the safe side.''

''Oh, well-''

RUMBLE GROWL

I brought a hoof to my stomach again, looking at it.

''Well, I bet it'll be delicious if Butterscotch is the one that made me my breakfeast!'' I swatted my hoof through the air, giving him an optimistic smile.

He didn't say anything, just looked away from me, though, he did a lousy job of hiding his smile behind his mane.

We were shortly seated at the table, when he pushed a glass across the table towards me.

I picked it up with my hoof, which wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be, and brought it up to my muzzle where I gulped it down.

Putting my glass down, my attention was soon stolen away by the large stack of delicious-looking pancakes, which saw whipped cream running down along the sides of the pancake tower, coating the rest of it in the delicious cream.

Picking up the silverware, I used it to cut the pancakes, slicing it into small enough pieces that would fit into my muzzle, lifting it up, and took my first bite.

''Mhmmm!'' I moaned from that one bite alone! ''Wow, these are the most delicious pancakes i've ever eaten! You're amazing cook, Butterscotch!'' I remarked after swallowing.

Actually, the texture was sweet and easy to chew, like normal pancakes, but the taste was unbelivable! The taste was unbelivable! Dancing on my tastebuds, tormenting me with how I couldn't enjoy it's sweet flavor, once i'd swallowed, but then I looked down and became happy again.

I cut another slice, going at it a little faster on this second serving, losing some of my control, but if one was expecting me to show restraint due to being the company of Butterscotch, I'm sad to dissapoint you that i'm not, i'm quite hungry, and I wanna eat now!

With each bite, my pace increased, and I gradually began lossing less and less control over myself, stuffing piece after piece of cube-cut pancake slices, chewing at just the right speed that I can enjoy it, while also moving on to the next mouthful.

I down the last of the water that he gave me, but he just seems to refill it, not even batting an eye at my relentless gorging of the pancakes on my place. I occasionally look up between mouthfulls to see it dissapear more and more, forgetting that it's already been teen minutes, and i've already polished off the first couple pancakes, and have now moved on to the next.

The hunger pains from earlier have subsided, but I still feel compelled to keep eating my breakfeast until there's nothing left, enjoying it too much to go to waste!

Slowly, my stomach begins pushing outwards as it fills with first two, then four, and then six pancakes, almost expanding with fat after every bite, in fact, that might as well have been what was happening, cause I wasn't seeing any end to it! I just keep growing and growing, bloating up like a balloon, but instead of air filling me, it's the most filling serving of pancakes ever!

My slender waist soon dissapeared amidst the ever-filling balloon of lard and pudge that was my stomach, becoming a rounder and fuller ball.

I stopped eating, just to groan at my skin stretching, and the food cramming itself inside me, filling up any and all space that I had left, destroying my toned figure. Pretty soon, my fuller stomach looked pregnant.

My belly pressed against the floor, putting pressure on my bloated gut, and interrupting my eating by making me groan at how taut my skin felt...fortunatly, that last bite that added those last couple inches was indeed my last bite. Looking up at my plate, there were no more pancakes to eat, which I scoffed in relief at.

I leaned back against the wall, whilst raising a hoof that I patted my engorged belly with, sighing content.

Butterscotch picked up plate, silverware, and all that stuff and started washing it, failing to notice my expression becoming less satisfied, now showing some discomfort.

I lowered my head, staring down at the round orb of fat between my legs, which I raised another hoof to begin cradling, noticing a build-up of pressure underneath the skin. I kept groaning until it started leaving my stomach, rushing up my throat, heading for my muzzle where it-

*URP*

Suddenly, his head shot up and he froze in place for a couple seconds, before slowly turning his head, looking directly at me. Both of us were shocked, and rightly so.

''Well...um...I was about to ask if you enjoyed the breakfeast, but it would seem that is no longer neccesary,'' he said, pointing his hoof at my distended stomach.

Yeah, i'll say, i'm huge...or at least, far from being the slender thing I used to be!

I nod, but my nod suddenly gets a lot slower, my face showing signs of discomfort, I look down at my stomach, staring at it while massaging my taut skin with my hooves. This new (painful) sensation radiating from my belly.

''Y-yeah, it was all delicious,'' I groan.

''Is everything okay?'' My ear twitches, drawing my attention back to him. ''You don't look so good. Is something bothering you?''

I shake my head, smiling as casually as possible. ''No, I feel-...feel fine, just some indigestion is all.''

Rubbing my belly seems to help, at least a bit, as i'm able to stand up with relative ease, though, I can still feel it sloshing inside of me, remding me of my current predicament. I quickly make my way towards the doorway, wobbling a bit from how bloated I am. I can almost feel the weight shifting around inside of me with every step. Stopping in the doorway, I turn back towards him.

''Thank you for a delicious breakfeast like that, Butterscotch.'' Turning away from the sink where he was currently washing dishes, he turned around to face me, his eyes widening at the sight of my gut.

''Yes, I can tell that you certainly enjoyed it,'' he joked, giving off a gentle chuckle.

''Yeah, I did, didn't I?'' I giggle, looking down towards my stretched abdomen, my smile fading a bit. ''I don't know why, but something tells me that i'll last till I get to Ponyville before my hunger strikes again.'' I raise a hoof, rubbing circles on my stomach, eventually patting it, grunting a bit.

''Y-you sure you don't want to stay?'' He called out just as soon as i'd started making my way out of the kitchen. Stopping in my tracks, I looked back at him. ''We could hang out together, cause I am quite lonely, and would like to have somepony else to talk to.''

''Sure! We can head into town, and maybe a few of your Ponyville friend...I assume you have friends in Ponyville?'' Even though i'd let some of my excitement slip from wanting to go into town with him, I at least managed to save it when I asked about his friends, not giving away that I knew about his friends.

However, strangely enough, he actually seemed to get a little...dissapointed after I brought up the idea of us heading in to town.

''Oh, well, I was originally thinking that perhaps we could spend the day here and talk with each other, get to know the other a little better first before heading into Ponyville,'' he replied, pointing towards the couch in his living room.

''Oh, well, as much as that sounds like an enticing offer, I really need to work-off some of this blubber.'' I poked my belly. Turning around, I headed for the door. ''Maybe later, would that work okay?''

''Oh, um...I guess it does. I mean, I don't have any other plans later tonight, or something...'' He nervously looks down at the floor, lightly scraping the floorboards with his hoof. His head, though, shots up after hearing the door open, immediatly rushing out after her.

However, he stops at the door, seeing that she's gone, and nowhere in sight, except for a small trail of hoof prints along the path to his door.

Hanging his head, he exhales a heavy sigh, a sad frown settling on his face.

''Oh, Butterscotch, you featherbrain! Why couldn't you just have tried harder? She was a cute mare, and she was in your home...and what did you do? You mucked it up by getting all shy, and timid, and nervous around her!'' He berats himself standing there in the door, regretting not seizing the oppertunity when it was there, and now she was gone.

''Stupid thing!'' He growls, tossing a full bottle still containing pills into the garbage.

All I can say is I appolagize to you having to put up with such aweful grammer for so long. Yeesh!
