What Is This Place?
The Wrong Choice
Previous ChapterNext ChapterChapter 3: The Wrong Choice (Peter)
When I woke up the next morning I was laying comfortably on my new bed... which was a couch... Oh well, Matt was on the guest bed. Twilight had let him sleep in it, he was drooling on it. How nice... I wasn't about to go wake him or Twilight up so I headed down to the kitchen.
I started looking for anything that wasn't a vegetable or a fruit, with no luck at all. Ponyville, Y U NO HAVE MEAT!?
"Buck this, I'm making pancakes." And so my amazing quest to make some pancakes began! Although it was a small kitchen it was amazingly well stocked. Every single thing I had ever seen my mom use to cook was there so it wasn't that hard to find all the ingredients
I started making them as soon as I found a frying pan, I managed to make 3 stacks of pancakes. When I was already getting ready to eat all of them, Matt walked down stairs very slowly and making grunting noises. If it wasn't that I could see him I would have confused him with a zombie and would have slammed the frying pan on his face.
"No go away these are my pancakes"
"Look directly at my face." I was surprised to get such a direct answer from him, but I did look at him anyways. "See this face? This is my 'I don't give a living horse apple' face. Now, give me that." As soon as he finished his sentence, and before I could even react, he was already devouring one of the piles of pancakes.
"Why my pancakes!? You monster! They had kids and family" I said pointing at the other stacks.
"Which will have the same fate as their relatives if you don't eat them soon." He said with his mouth full of food.
I suppose we were making a racket because Twilight was walking down stairs, looking as exhausted as ever.
"Oh great, now I'm going to get reduced to my last stack"
"Because you're the only guy that is almost as stupid as for to make 3 stacks of pancakes when there are obviously 3 people present." Matt said again. I hate it when he's right.
"What do you mean? Stack of what?" Twilight said, raising an eyebrow.
"Pancakes! Breakfast of the gods!" I said, holding up a stack.
"What is a pancake?" Twilight said, clearly confused.
Facepalm. "Oh my bucking god what type of monstrous place doesn't know pancakes."
"The place where you have been aching to live for 6 months. Deal with it." Matt said, with his mouth still full of my pancakes.
"Good point... anyways, here Twilight, try them!"
She didn't seem to convinced. She cut a tiny piece with her magic and placed it into her mouth , the look on her face when she swallowed it was priceless.
"See? Told you."
"They're amazing!"
"And that, my good Twilight Sparkle, is a pancake."
She didn't speak so I grabbed my own pancakes and ate with everyone else. We didn't take long to finish.
"Hey Twilight, one question. Where is spike?"
"Oh my I had forgotten all about him! He's supposed to arrive this morning!"
"Oh, good ... in what part of this is that a problem ? Just tell him who we are, right Matt?"
Matt gave me the 'I don't give a living horse apple' face.
"Ok then...I'll take that as a yes."
"Well..." Twilight said with a hoof on her chin. "I guess you could be right. I'll go get him, will you be alright?"
"Just fine." we both answered
"Fine then, but don't go out or do anything strange like burning down my house."
"Thanks for the vote of confidence."
She walked out the door leaving us alone …
My first reaction was: "Let's do the first thing she told us not to do."
"Burn down the house?" Matt said, obviously not caring.
"Umm, yeah, that too. But I mean do something stupid"
"You? Peter, the most idiotic person I know, doing something stupid? I do not believe it! Note the sarcasm!"
"You're a troll, you know that?" He noded with a noticeable grin on his face. "...I'm going to go see to what I can burn out there, of course without hurting anypony. "
"Okay, go out, have some fun burning stuff to the core, probably hurting a bunch of fillies in the process."
I was already heading out the door and didn't have the patience to answer him so I kept on walking on my look for something stupid to do.. the town was deserted. Well, I guess its because it was still like 7:50 AM so nopony was awake just yet, so I just wandered around the small village for awhile (walking in circles). The response of me waiting was not giving positive results so I headed under a near by tree and just sat under it. That's when I heard her.
"What are you doing under my tree?".
I looked around to see nopony anywhere ,double checked all around again..."Perfect, now I'm going mad too," I said to myself.
"What? Hey! I asked you a question!".
"Well, who ever you are, I don't care"
"Do you know who you're talking too?"
"My imaginary friend...I guess..."
"Um, no. Look up here."
I looked on one of the tree branches to see...Oh my god... It can't be... it's impossible... no... it was.. it was... my bucking hero... "RAINBOW DASH!!!!"
"Yeah!" She gave out a small chuckle. "That's me! I see you have heard of me already"
"HEARD OF YOU? I love you!"
Her look of pride turned into one that said 'awkward'. "Say what now?"
I started climbing the tree to get to her but as soon as I got close, she started backing away a little.
"Wait, no! Stay away from me, you creepy thing!"
She tryed to to fly away, but as soon as she got of the tree branch I jumped after her and grabbed on to her tail.
"No! Get off me!"
She kicked me on the face and I fell to the floor. I just lied there, face to the ground. I didn't hear her fly away, if not just land and approach me slowly.
"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh! Did I kill it?" She asked to herself in a low voice. She sounded worried.
"'Its' name is Peter thank you very much, and no, I am not dead "
As soon as I finished my sarcastic sentence she stomped on me "That's for grabbing on to my tail!"
"I'm still ok, if you were wondering" she proceeded to stomp on me some more
"No I do not care, and what are you? Why don't you suffer from me stomping on you?!"
"I'll have to answer your questions with a question, why should I answer any of your questions?"
"Well because... because... just because I'm Rainbow Dash, got it?"
"Beep wrong I'm not answering nothing to you"
Rainbow Dash kept stomping on me "And why is that!?"
"Because you haven't stopped stomping on me since we met."
"Oh yeah... sorry." She stopped stomping on me and I sat up.
"Wasn't that easy?"
"No, now answer me or I will continue"
"I guess I don't have an option (sarcasm), I am Peter Knight, I'm a human and I don't suffer, that is for the weak!" Show off, I was actually suffering real deep inside myself.
"Whats a human?"
"Well, your looking at one, so I proudly present to you, me, Peter the human"
"I'm not amused... you still didn't tell me how you know my name?"
"Haha that, my filly is a secret"
I got on my feet and ran away for some reason.
"Hey get back here!! I've got questions!"
"Well I'm out of answers, I have told you too much." Truly I had told her too much. I mean, when I headed out of Twilight's house I meant to do something stupid but I took it to a whole new level by doing this, this was just so bucking dumb.
