Yet Another Day

Previous Chapter

---9 A.M.---
"Up and at 'em everyone!!" A sadistic voice yelled as a door was kicked open.

"Ugh you could be quieter." I groaned as I opened one eye and glared at him as he walked in with such a happy mood to see that the mane six were now like us.

"Glad to see our new employees are in 'uniform'." Viktor chuckled as the mane six got up and stood in front of him.

"They're ready Viktor I explained everything already." I said as I turned my head away from him.

"Good let's get started." Viktor said as he turned around and walked towards the main office as they followed.

"Hopefully.... today will be.... quick." Derpy said as she remembered what happened the previous day.

"Don't worry I'll keep those freaks away from you." I said as I booped her nose which made her smile.

---11 A.M.---

"Okay we're all set so lets get this shit going!!" Viktor yelled as he walked out of the main office followed by the others who were still walking rigidly.

"You guys alright?" I questioned as I walked over and stood in front of them.

"Yeah we're fine jus-just a little jittery." Twilight said as she started gathering herself back together.

"Today you will see the true sides of humans. Some are good most are bad just don't break under the pressure because if you do Viktor will target you and try to make you his servant." I whispered to them as Viktor walked to the switches and started turning them on.

"Oh I almost forgot to mention that the news crew will be here today to introduce our new employees to the world officially." Viktor exclaimed as he walked over to the doors.

"Wait are they here now?" I asked.

"Well of course they are." Viktor said as he began opening the door.

Shit! I thought to myself as I ran over and grabbed Derpy and took her into the staff locker room.

"What's.... wrong?" Derpy asked as I sat her down gently.

"There are people coming to film us and I don't want more freaks to come here to harass you. Don't worry I'll stay outside and keep guard." I said as I kissed her forehead as I shut the door.

"Ugh it... Smells in here." Derpy said as fumbled around.

"Hello Viktor!" A blonde lady yelled as she ran inside followed by her lackeys who were carrying the equipment.

"Hello sweetie!" Viktor yelled as he kissed the lady on the lips.

"How's everything going?" The lady asked.

"Amazing Veronica except had some very talkative employees this morning. Anyway did Amanda get to school on time?" Viktor asked only to be replied by a nod.

"Where's that funny looking robot?" Veronica asked as she looked over at the corner only to see me sitting in front of a closet.

"He's guarding her as usual." Viktor sighed as Veronica walked over to me.

"Can I see her please? I know my husband took you from Eques-whatever, but aren't you ponies supposed to be nice?" Veronica said as she squatted in front of me looking me in the eyes with a pout face.

"Let me think." I said in my robotic voice. Then I put on a big grin, "How about no." I replied.

"Aww don't be so mean." Veronica proclaimed as she tried reach for the handle.

"What part of no do you not understand?" I said as I pushed her back with my head.

"What the hell?!" She freaked out.

"I said no and I mean it." I said as I smiled.

"Guardian, watch it." Viktor said cautiously.

"Can I say something boss?" I asked.

"Fine." Viktor said with a wave of his hand.

I then started hovering in front of Veronica's face and looked her dead in the eyes.

"Honey..." Veronica started.

"Let's just say if our appearances can change so easily then why can't our mindset? Now I suggest you stop asking because you have a story to get to don't you? And I'm pretty sure it doesn't involve her." I said with a smile as I started floating towards the ground.

"Whatever you stupid horse. I didn't believe Viktor at first, but now I know you really can talk freely and that you really are an ass." Veronica said angrily as she stormed off.

"Bitch." I muttered under my breathe.

A couple hours passed by and the news cast was finally done. They showed off the mane six and even gave me a cameo in the clip just for giggles, but oh well as long as they didn't see Derpy I was fine.

"Well this is Veronica from Los Angeles California. Back to you Tom." Veronica said as she smiled at the camera as the red light turned off.

"Bravo honey I thought you did a lovely job." Viktor said as she walked over and began clapping his hands.

"Thank you baby." Veronica said as she kissed him on the cheek. "Well I need to head back to the station so I'll see you home tonight. Later you metal donkey." Veronica said in a cocky tone as she walked out.

"Bye cow." I yelled back as she walked out only to get the bird in response.

"What the hell is your problem?!" Viktor yelled at me after she walked out.

"Don't pretend like you don't know what the problem is! We never wanted this and didn't ask for it, but mark my words one day you and your miserable excuse for a wife will pay." I said with a snarl as I opened the door to let Derpy out.

"Whatever you piece of metal we're opening in one hour get ready or else." Viktor said as he spat on the floor in front of me and stormed to his office.

"Are you okay?" Twilight asked as her and the others walked over.

"Yeah I'm fine don't worry about me. You guys however need to get ready because the real nightmare is about to begin." I said as I began making sure that Derpy's parts were all together and she was clean.

---One hour later---

The front doors burst open as a flood of screaming children came stampeding into the parlor.

Celestia can't we have at least one slow day? I thought to myself as my fake smile made me look approachable.

"They're really here!!!" Kids yelled as they saw the mane six behind me.

I could only look back the them and give them a look trying to say 'Don't worry everything will be okay just play along and the day will be over quickly'. They looked back with understanding eyes.

"Mommy I want that one!" A little boy yelled as he saw Rainbow Dash.

"Maybe Santa will get you one for Christmas honey remember he's already making his list." The mother said to her child as they both walked off smiling.

Then the day went on like normal. Songs were sang, pictures were taken, I couldn't do anything but watch as kids took Derpy apart and made her their personal toy, and I couldn't stop giving Viktor the death stare every time I got the chance only to be met back with his smug look.

"Everyone I would like to make an announcement." Viktor said as he came over the intercom. "On Halloween night we will be having a horror house in the parlor until 1 o'clock in the morning and some very lucky winners will be given the opportunity to stay overnight and experience the parlor after dark. So come on down on Halloween night starting at 7 p.m. it'll be fun for the whole family."

Then from the kids erupted a uproar of cheering and laughter. Then I noticed some rather shady people in the back against the wall talking among themselves. Then I saw him, the same jerk who tried to buy Derpy from Viktor a couple days ago. Now my crystal heart was racing because if he was with them then they were bronies, no doubt about it.

Finally after things calmed down and everyone left including Viktor it was just the eight of us.

"Phew my dogs 're barkin'." Applejack said as she sat down on the stage while everyone gathered in a circle.

"Don't worry you'll get used to it..." I said as I looked down at my hooves.

"Some of these people are just disgusting." Rarity said as she reminisced on the trash everywhere and nasty people.

"I know what you mean it was horrible." Rainbow Dash said with a sigh.

"I was kinda scared for the most part. Some of those people were intimidating." Fluttershy said as she looked down while Pinkie only bounced around us full of excitement as always.

"Don't worry guys everything will be fine. After you go through this for a couple days you get used to it and it goes by faster." I said reassuringly.

"What makes you say that?" Pinkie said as she stopped mid-bounce and began defying the laws of gravity.

"Because it's yet another day... in hell." I said as I laid my head down and felt Derpy lay her head down on my back. "I suggest you guys get some sleep tomorrow is going to be a nightmare because it's the weekend."

They all agreed and we all fell asleep not aware of the horrors that were coming our way.
