Home Alone

"Is that a violin, Octavia?"

Octavia finished making a sandwich for Nittany Discord and sat next to him as she said, "Yes this is a violin, I have an important recital tomorrow and I need to practice." Octavia picked up her violin and walked out of the dining room and into the living room to find a good place to practice playing her violin. She observed the very small living room which only contained a beige sofa, a stained brown carpet, and a dirty window with 54 tiny padlocks on it. Octavia wondered why there were that many padlocks on the window, but decided that would only take away time to practice.

"This will have to do" Octavia said with a sigh. Nittany Discord came into the living room with a duster and looked between Octavia's legs. Hmm this might be very dusty, only one way to find out!, Nittany thought. Octavia screamed as she quickly turned around and saw Nittany Discord with a now-wet duster. "Get to your damn room right now!" Octavia screamed, holding back the urge to strangle Nittany.

Nittany Discord stuck his tongue out and walked to his perfectly clean room. Nittany opened his door and inspected his room. He saw his neatly made bed, his sparkling lamp resting on his dust-free dresser. He seemed satisfied until he saw a small particle of dust in the corner of his room. "You shall be brutally murdered you worthless piece of filth," Nittany yelled as he grabbed a dry duster and brutally dusted the corner.

Octavia flinched as Nittany yelled and was about to scold him until there was a knock at the door. Octavia slowly opened the door to see it was Derpy Hooves with a letter in her mouth! Octavia took the letter from Derpy and thanked her as she closed the door.

Nittany lost his balance when he heard the loud scream come from the living room. He fumbled his way to Octavia saying, "Whats wrong? Is there dust?" Octavia grabbed her violin and quickly told Nittany, "Listen, I just got a letter saying the recital has been moved to 3 hours from now. Are you able to take care of yourself for 7 hours?" Nittany nodded and dusted Octavia's violin.

"Is that the same duster you dusted my.. You know what? I don't even want to know." She quickly headed through the door and locked all 13 padlocks on the outside of the door. Nittany waved goodbye through the window and sat infront of the door, waiting for Octavia to return.

Nittany sat there for an hour before he finally looked for something heavy. "I know there's something here." He went into the adult bedroom and searched the dresser and found a slightly heavy white rod with smooth round ends and a button on it. "What the hell is this thing?" Nittany asked himself. He pushed the button and the strange white object began to vibrate. He let it vibrate in his hooves for awhile, giggling at how it made his hooves feel. "This will be perfect" Nittany exclaimed as he carried the object in his mouth to the living room.

He took the object out of his mouth and threw it at the window, but it bounced off and quickly headed towards Nittany's head. Nittany Discord was to busy praising himself to notice the rod heading towards his face. The mystery object went into his face, making his nose splatter blood all over the couch.

Usually anypony would be crying from the pain that would be caused by a vibrator hitting their face. Nittany ignored the pain and panically found the cleaning supplies and used an assortment of of sprays, rags, and dusters to clean the blood stains on the couch. After 20 minutes of hardcore cleaning, the stain was gone. Nittany was about to praise himself once more until he realized his nose hurts.

He ran to the bathroom and looked for the bandages. He opened the medicine cabinet and took out the box of different colored bandages. He took 6 different colored bandages and put them on his nose and noticed the order they were in: lavender, pink, cyan, bright-yellow, orange, and white. He didn't think anything of the colors. He was satisfied with his 'professional' bandaging of his face and sat on the sofa.

After 40 minutes of napping, Nittany checked the clock and face-hoofed when he realized it has only been two hours since Octavia left. He sighed saw a Nittany-sized rock under the couch when he looked at his back hooves. He struggled to lift the rock from under the couch, but succeeded. He quickly hurled the rock at the window before it crushed his little body.

The rock smashed the window instead of his face and after 10 minutes of Nittany cleaning up the mess, he leaped through the window and was ready to begin his adventure. He ran to the ice-cream pony and looked at the wide assortment of ice cream flavors. He picked out a scoop of strawberry, orange, vanilla, boysenberry, bubblegum, and lemon. The ice-cream pony handed Nittany the ice-cream cone with the 6 flavors stacked ontop of it.

Nittany was about to walk away when the ice-cream pony made a ahem noise and held out his hoof. Nittany reached around in his mane and only found 12 different dusters inside of it. He grabbed one of his old broken dusters, put it in the ice-pony's hoof and ran away licking at the ice-cream.

Nittany stuffed the ice-cream into his mane and continued running until he reached the Everfree Forest and saw the ice-cream pony still chasing him. Nittany had no choice but to run into Everfree. The ice-cream pony came to a sudden halt at the edge of the forest and tried to decide if it was worth chasing Nittany into Everfree, but thought it was not worth his life to get 6 scoops of ice cream from a colt and walked away.

Nittany was laughing as he made random turns and jumps in the Everfree Forest. It wasn't until 10 minutes of running later, he realized he just got himself lost in one of the most dangerous places in Equestria. He took the ice-cream from his mane and began to lick it as he nervously tried to find his way back home...

Fillydelphia

Nittany had walked 10 miles in the past hour, but he didn't give up until he was in-front of a purple cave. "There is no way this cave was here, and how the hell is it purple" Nittany Discord yelled. He entered the cave while licking the last flavor of ice-cream on his ice-cream cone. He noticed that the inside of the cave was covered in slime. Disgusted, he took out a rag and some cleaning spray from his mane and began to clean the the walls of the cave until it began to shake. A loud roar coming from the deeper end of the purple cave.

Nittany ran out of the cave as quickly as possible and saw the purple cave grew giant green eyes! It was lifting itself out of the ground and was heading towards Nittany. Nittany quickly ran under the purple monster, but then it started to lower itself to crush Nittany. Nittany Discord was able to get out from under it in time and was covered in dirt from the event. He took out a lavender colored duster and began to dust himself as he walked on a dirt trail that was behind the monster.

Nittany could see a town in-front of him! It has to be Ponyville! I'm back home!, Nittany thought. As he walked into the town he immediately realized that this was not Ponyville, but instead it was Fillydelphia! As Nittany walked to the taxi station he noticed something odd about Fillydelphia... it was full of parasprites. Nittany noticed a sewer grate and ran to it as quickly as possible. The parasprites were too fast and managed to get every duster out of Nittany's mane. The parasprites flew away satisfied with what they stole. Nittany fell into the sewer and hit the concrete head-first...

Octavia unlocked the padlocks on the door to Nittany's home. "Nittany? Where are you" Octavia called out. She went into Nittany's room and he wasn't there, she went into the adult bedroom and he wasn't there, she went into the bathroom and he wasn't there. She ran outside and saw small hoofprints leading to where an ice-cream stand once stood and then the hoofprints lead to Everfree. "Now I know why they would add so many padlocks to the windows and the door" Octavia told herself as she ran into Everfree.

Nittany slowly opened his eyes and saw 3 ponies completely covered in dust and grime. "Hes waking up" one of the dirt-ponies said. When Nittany looked around he saw he was on the other side of Fillydelphia, which meant he was farther from home than before. One of the dirt-ponies offered him some cooked parasprite, Nittany rejected the disgusting treat and reached into his mane. "Wait, wheres my dusters" Nittany asked, with his pupils shrinking every second. One of the dirt-ponies spoke up, " Those were yours? Sorry, we used them to make the fire"

Nittany's pupils shrank smaller than a crumb of bread, and a tear rolled down his cheek as he remembered the good times he shared with those dusters. He slowly reached for one of the spears the dirt-ponies used to kill parasprites. All three of them stood up, "Look, they were just dusters... its not like they were important to your life or anything." Nittany screamed and threw a spear at the dirt-pony's head who said the dusters weren't important. The female dirt-pony screamed as Nittany threw a spear at her head. Only one dirt-pony remained and when he tried to run away he tripped on the fire behind him and died a slow painful death.

Nittany watched the dirt-pony burn without any regard to the pain he went through. When the dirt-pony was nothing but ash, Nittany walked back into Fillydelphia and looked to see if any of his dusters survived. He only found one, a cracked cyan colored one with 5 of it's feathers missing. He happily put it in his mane and walked the wrong way out of Fillydelphia.

As he walked away he noticed a few ponies that locked themselves inside their shops. He felt bad for them and decided to lend a helping hoof by grabbing a random vibrating object and throwing it at the window. Sadly, it bounced off and hit Nittany in the face then, due to its vibration, vibrated away from Nittany. The vibrating object cracked the window, enough that Nittany was able to punch it and shatter it. A brown pony with a strange, northern accent came out and thanked Nittany then ran away.

Nittany was walking out of Fillydelphia when suddenly a horde of parasprites blocked his path. When Nittany tried going around them, the parasprites got back in-front of him. "Get out of my damn way" Nittany shouted at the parasprites. The unintelligent parasprites thought Nittany was threatening them so they picked Nittany up, high into the sky. Nittany watched how high the parasprites carried him and thought it was about 50 feet. The parasprites disbanded and let Nittany fall, until a grey pegasus with a blonde mane hit Nittany by accident. Because of that unknown pegasus, Nittany was now falling into a lake near Fillydelphia.

Landing in that lake sent pain through Nittany, but he was thankful for not being dead. He created a makeshift duster out of feathers that fell off the pegasus and a twig. He used it to clean the water and mud off of him and then put the duster into his mane. Nittany watched the pegasus fly away and then continued his walk back home. Once he was back in Everfree for 20 minutes, he knew he went the wrong way. Nittany was too late though, he was again, lost in Everfree...

Discovery

Nittany was very, VERY far from home. He no longer recognized any of the mountains and hills he learned of at his school. He was soon in-front of a giant crumbling cave that made enormous echos whenever he shouted, "Hello?" Before entering the cave he picked up a random object on the ground and threw it at the cave to make sure the cave wasn't alive.

The object bounced of the cave and hit Nittany Discord in the face, the same spot where the mysterious vibrating object hit him at home. When Nittany looked at what he threw, he saw it. He saw the same vibrating object from home, and from Fillydelphia! "HOW ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME" Nittany shouted at the strange vibrating object.

He took a step towards it, but slipped and fell into the cave. Thankfully, he didn't land on his head, but when he saw what cave he was in, he wished his head would've splattered on the floor. He was in the chamber of the changelings, one of the worst places to be if you weren't a changeling. The queen of the changelings noticed Nittany fall onto the ground and saw a picture fall out of his mane, along with an ice-cream cone, a duster, a stick, and glue. When she walked to Nittany, she stared at the picture for a few minutes. The picture was of Nittany kissing one of his dusters. "Oh you have to be kidding m-" Chrysalis was cut short be another pony falling into the cave, this time falling onto her. "Octavia? What the hell are you doing here?" Nittany yelled. Octavia stood up on the asleep-Chrysalis and responded, " I'm here to get you, "

"You came here to get me? Your so nice Octavia!" Nittany said as he hugged the musical pony.

"Actually I just couldn't risk your parents finding out you escaped, it may ruin my chances of playing in Canterlot" Octavia said truthfully.

Nittany pouted, " Your mean... and dirty." He dusted Octavia off and then ran to try and get out of the cave. Nittany tried jumping out, but without success. "How will we get out?" Nittany nervously said. Octavia hit her face with her hoof, " Use your damn wings you idiot! " Nittany looked at his sides and replied, " When did I have wings?" Octavia grabbed onto Nittany's back hoof, " Since you were born! Now fly!" Nittany did as Octavia instructed and flew as fast as he could out of the cave and eventually was flying over the Everfree forest, since he didn't know when to stop flying.

"I think you can stop flying now!" Octavia yelled. Nittany was startled by Octavia's sudden words and crash-landed into a tree. They both fell from the tree and laded painfully on a vibrating object. "Why does it feel like we are on a vibrating rock?" Octavia asked. They both got up to see it twas the evil vibrating object! "Why is there a vibrator in the forest?" Octavia questioned. Nittany yelled, "SO THAT'S YOUR NAME HUH?! Oh you seem a bit dusty Mr. Vibrator." He dusted all of the dirt off of the vibrator and stuffed it into his mane. Octavia threw up when he put the vibrator in his mane.

Nittany, no knowing exactly WHAT a vibrator is other than it is evil and it vibrates, asked, "Why did you throw up?" Octavia just walked to him, took the vibrator out of his mane and threw it into a bush. Then she grabbed onto his back hoof and told him to find their way back home. He kept flying until he became very tired and fell into Canterlot. He was very sweaty and cleaned himself with a rag in his sleep.

Loose Ends

Nittany Discord and Octavia crashed through multiple floors, ceilings, and refrigerators all the way down to the area below Canterlot. Thankfully they destroyed a pillow storage and were able to land somewhat safely. They were both unconscious while multiple pegasus ponies in black suits carried them into a warehouse back in Canterlot.

When Octavia and Nittany slowly woke up they found themselves tied to a chair with multiple pegasus and unicorn ponies in black suits surrounding them. "Where the hell are we" Octavia asked, not so nicely. A unicorn stepped out from behind the circle of black suited ponies, he was wearing a white suit with holes in it, "Your in my pillow factory slash night club shee, but since you two destroyed the pillow factory part... It is just a night club with no pillows shee." The black suited ponies began to speak gibberish, but stopped when the white-suited pony hushed them.

"Now listen here shee! You better have the money to repair my pillows shee" the white-suited pony said with his idiotic accent. "You have an idiotic accent" Octavia said. The white-suited pony hit Octavia in the mane. Nittany and Octavia both laughed at what the white-suited pony's attack on Octavia's head. The white-suited pony punched a duster out of Nittany's mane. Nittany cried out, "NOOO! Please don't harm the duster!" The white-suited pony lit the duster on fire and threw it in-front of Nittany and then laughed.

Nittany pulled at the ropes and the ropes began to snap. "How are you doing that SHEE" the white-suited pony asked. Nittany jumped out of the chair and began to punch the white-suited pony in the face repeatedly until the white-suited pony bucked him into the chair. Nittany pulled out two dusters and held them in both hooves, then he dusted every single black-suited pony to death.

Nittany then stuck the on-fire duster into the white-suited pony's face. The white-suited pony screamed in pain, " MY FACE BURNS SHEE! SOMEPONY HELP ME SHEE!" Nittany ripped Octavia's ropes apart, grabbed her mane and flew out of the pillow factory nightclub.

Sadly, Nittany wasn't paying attention to where he was flying and crashed right into Nittany's bedroom. "Oh sweet Celestia... MY ROOM IS COVERED IN DUST" Nittany cried out. Nittany grabbed a random object and threw it at the emergency duster container to shatter the glass. Sadly, it bounced off and shattered Nittany's nose bone. Nittany picked up what he saw was the evil vibrating object and threw it out the still-broken front window.

"Ow" a stranger outside the home said. The front door opened and Nittany and Octavia saw Nittany's mother! "What the hell is my vibrator doing outside? And why is Nittany's room destroyed? And why are the windows broken?" Nittany's mother asked.

Before Nittany and Octavia could answer, several ponies were gathered behind Nittany's mother. Nittany peered from behind her and saw it twas the ice-cream pony, a police pony, a survivor of the dirt-ponies and 3 witnesses to Nittany killing the black-suited ponies.

"Who are all of you?" Nittany's mother nervously asked the mob. The ice-cream pony answered first, "That kid stole 6 scoops of ice-cream from me!" Then the surviving dirt-pony answered, "That kid murdered my friends and burned me alive!" Nittany argued, "Actually you tripped into the fire." Then the witnessess spoke, "That demon killed many ponies earlier today." Finally the police said what they wanted to say, "I'm here because I heard you baked good donuts." Nittany's mother reached in her mane and pulled out a broom. She started whacking every single pony in the mob that was gathered around her home. Eventually they left and all that remained in the ruined home were Nittany Discord, Nittany's unnamed mother, and Octavia.

"Now, who wants a sandwhich" Nittany's mother asked. Octavia and Nittany Discord raised their hooves.

The End.
