Chapter 5 Sugarcube Corner
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWell, we remembered to go to Sugarcube Corner, go inside, possibly get a treat, leave again, take a right, and just avoid the poison joke and you’re there. When we got to Sugarcube Corner I had, like, 30 bits, so I just ordered Harry and Price muffins and myself a scone. Yum, scone-y goodness. I’ve always had a thing for scones. Everything only cost 2 bits a piece. Hmm. I wonder how that translates to US dollars.
“Guys, a muffin would be about 2 dollars at Muncher’s (a local bakery in Lawrence, the city I’m from) and that means, one bit is one dollar.”
“Dude, how can you already use your magic?” asks Harry.
“That was just logic. Not magic. How do you already fly?” I took a bite of my scone.
“With a lot of crashing and extreme fear, but no, you’re floating your scone-y thingy.
“Oh shoot!” I say, and drop my scone.
“Ya shouldn’t-a told him.” Says Price.
Just then, Applejack walked in.
“Well hi-ya! How y’all doin’?”
“Not good AJ. But you’d think we was insane if we told you what was up.”
“I ain’t one for judging. Tell me, I’ll probably believe you.”
“That probl’y’s what’s botherin’ me ‘bout that” I say. Oh god, I still talked like a Southerner
“Wha’s wrong with ya, Twi? You’re talkin’ like… well, me!”
“I ain’t Twilight.” I explain “This ain’t Rainbow, and that ain’t Pinkie.”
“Den who are ya?”
“We’re… humans. You probably dunno what those are, but that don’t matter. My names Damo, and d’ese are my best friends Harry and Price. “
“Well…” she ponders this. “I believe ya, but… how’d you get in my friend’s bodies? And how ya know our names?”
I explain to her about what happened to us, the TV show, who we are, and where we’re going.
“Well. Princess Celestia needs to hear about this.” She concludes.
“Okay then. I need a pencil, paper, and instructions on how to write in your Hyrulian looking writing.” I say
“Dude, dude, no!” giggles Harry. “We are in Equestria, not Hyrule.”
“I know, but have you seen the stuff? It looks like Hyrulian!”
“Whatever, I’ll get Spike” says Harry.
Then, Seasons 1+2 of MLP, a TV, a DVD player, and a picture of me, Harry, and Price fell in front of me.
“I knew these 4th wall breaking powers would be useful” said Pinkie Price
“We didn’t need that much proof” I tried to facehoof but ended up knocking myself on my back. Everyone was laughing, even Applejack, even Mr. Cake, until he noticed the strange items in his floor, then he left.
“I tried to facepalm! Hoof. Whatever! Why would my being in pain amuse you? I’m especially disappointed at you AJ.” She pulled her hat over her face.
“I’m sorry” said Harry “But now I should go get Spike.”
“So this is what you look like?” asks Applejack, sliding the picture to herself.
“Yep! That’s me in the middle, Price on left and Harry on right
“Weird. Like Spike, but taller and not purple. And wait; is that Fluttershy on your shirt?”
“Yep.” I said. “But, to be honest, you were always my favorite.”
“Why?”
“Well, I used to have to work on a farm. And I envy your ability to make that hat look good and the fact that, you can’t tell a lie, really.”
“I can, I’m just bad at it.”
“Exactly”
“Hey, can I interrupt?” asks Price nosily
“No. Go find an outlet and hook up the TV and DVD Player.” I respond
“Okay!” he agrees cheerfully.
“M’kay, now I know y’all are telling the truth.”
“How?”
“Pinkie Pie... I mean Price, didn’t say ‘Okie dokie Loki’”
“Funny thing about that...”
I went on to explain about religion on Earth and who Loki was. After a bit, Pinkie Price called us upstairs.
“Eh! Damo! AJ! It’s up! Com’ere!”
We went upstairs and watched over “Party of One”, “Putting Your Hoof Down” and “Return of Harmony Part 2”
Questions and comments from AJ included “Do I really look like that?” “I really am a bad liar” “Why did no pony tell me about this?” and “Wow, what a jerk that Discord is.”
We were about to watch another when Rainbow Harry, Zecora, Spike, and Fluttershy came through the door. Fluttershy. I couldn’t hold it back. I tried so hard my lips quivered, but it came out.
“D’aww!!!!” I gushed
“I know! She is just soooo adorable!” agreed Harry. Fluttershy blushed and smiled a bit.
“Wh-why thank you” she stuttered quietly
“D’aww!!”
“Anyway, down to business. I already sent the letter to Princess Celestia, and we should get the response any min—“he burped up a letter “—ute.”
“Okay…” he began.
“Dear Human,
I am aware of your situation, and all I can say is welcome to Equestria. There is no way to send you back to your world, even with Twilight Sparkles magic. Now I understand we are a TV show in your world, and we hope to learn a lot from you about your customs and our popularity.
What we can do is revive you to your human state and bring Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash back to this world.
Signed,
Princess Celestia”
“Come with me, we must fix you. But we’ll need some things to make your forms true.”
“How does she keep on rhyming like that?” I wondered aloud.
“Don’t ask” said AJ.
