Hehe, I don't have any intro for this chapter. Let's just go read,shell we?

_>

<_<


I was in a dark place, like in that last dream. "Urgh, what happened?" I muttered, standing up. "I am unconscious, but not death, I think." I began to recall what happened before "What was that blob, I remember seeing it elsewhere...". My face became filled with fear at the realization. "No" I said "no, no, no no nono nononononononononono!" I started panicking, that thing WILL become a problem. "Why phazon!? Why?" I said between hyperventilations "Okay, calm down, that clearing isn't touched by anything else except Zecora, that would help it for not spreading."

A light appeared infront of me, getting closer and closer every second until engulfing me entirely. I didn't know what it would do to me, but I also didn't give a fuck about it.


I barely opened my eyes, and my vision at the moment was too blurred, only could see outlines. There were... six? no. Seven? maybe. Eight? hmm, better. I blinked a few times to see better, there were the mane six, a doctor, and a nurse. All of them, except Dash, had worried expressions which lowered a little seeing I am waking up. I gave a grunt and tried to sit down, but a quick pain and the doctor pinned me down.

"You have to lay down, you haven't recovered fully yet." the doctor said.

"Okay." I said, grunting in pain.

Twilight hugged me, and for a unicorn who only spends the time with books, she had a strong grip. "I was so worried about you." she said, at the edge of sobbing.

"Sh sh sh shhh," I hushed like you would hush a baby "Everything is okay, no need to worry." I hugged her and patted her back in a comforting way. After some time, she broke the hug and sat on a side of the bed. She had a small smile on her face.

"You know how much time I have left here, Doc?" I asked.

"Well" he started "your recovery is way too faster than expected; and, because of this, this will be the last check until you can go."

"Good." I said. I looked at the clock, 6:50 pm. I went to Twilight's house by 1:30 or so, then walked for a good 10-20 minutes. I passed out like 5 hours. I looked at my chest, the doc said my recovery was fast, but it this was insane. There wasn't even a scratch, like it never happened. "Uh," I said "Where is the shard that almost killed me?"

The doctor looked away from a file has reading and said "Well, you absorbed it."

"Huh?" This can't be good. I thought.

"As I said, you absorbed the shard before we could even touch it."

"O-okay." I said. I looked at the mares and said, a bit more calmed, "How is it going?"

"Well," Rarity spoke up "away from the 'accident', the day has gone pretty good."

"Same here." Applejack said.

"I couldn't give you your birthday party because of it!" Pinkie shouted. For her not been able to make a party is serious buisness.

"Chilax Pinkie." I said "Remember, there are a lot of days where you can make me that party." She calmed a little bit, but she was still kind of annoyed. I looked at Fluttershy. "What about your day?"

The shy pegasus hid under her mane and said "W-well, everything has been alright before, you know."

"No need to be shy at me, I am not dangerous."  Everyone knows as I, a brony, already knew about her behavior, but couldn't risk of appearing I knew too much.

"She's like that, a problem with that?." Rainbow said flatly. Was that I heard hostility at me? yeah.

"Hey, why are you like that to me?" I asked, rather annoyed by the sudden outburst. "I mean, you have only giving me the cold shoulder the entire time. What have I done to have that behavior towards me?"

She just grunted, looking away from me.

I sighed "Fine, if this is how you wanna go. Let it be."

After a few minutes of awkward silence, the doctor came close to me and examined me. Some time later he finished and said "Everything seems alright, you can go."

"Good to know." I said smiling. I tried again to sit, better result. Now, to stand on firm ground. It took a while to stay firm, then I nodded that we should go. "Uhm, Twilight." I said.

"Yes, Horacio." she answered. Her eyes sparkled at me, that got me hypnotized. Then, she looked at me, like I was doing something dumb and said "You allright?"

"Huh? Oh yes, hehe." I quickly snapped from my trance ashamed. Then I said in a more serious tone "It is needed that the princess knows of what attacked me. I actually knew what was it, but remembered until now."

"Huh?" she seemed surprised. "So, what is it?"

"From where I come from it is called phazon. A radioactive bio-mineral with strong mutagenic abilities, extremely dangerous."

"Wait," the lavender mare said "If it is that dangerous, and you absorbed it. Why anything is happening to you?". She now looked more worried.

"I don't know, to be honest with you." I said "Just let's be thankful anything bad happened. I also need to ask to quarantine the zone of the mineral."

"Let me see what I can do."

"Good, thank you." I finished. I sighed and thought Thank everything that nothing wrong will happen. The girls and I walked to the entrance of the hospital, said our good-bye's (except me and Dash), and went everyone to they respective homes to rest.

Getting at the tree-house, I went to the kitchen to make something to eat. Spike was ordering some books, when he saw me he waved saying hello. I waved back. I just ate some cereal and went to bed.  As I made my way into my bed, I just felt as I needed to sleep now. I did it, falling quickly into slumber.


I woke up easier than usual. I yawned and stretched. I looked at my left to see a Twilight looking at me with a covered plate, "Good morning sleepy-head." she said, snuggling on my forehoof. I smiled, it was the first relaxing moment I had in three days of hell I received, and I was sure as hay I was going to use it.

"Good morning, Twi." I said, yawning again. I looked at the plate and asked "What you got there?"

"Some break-fast for you." she smiled "You saved my life, and decided to give you breakfast in bed!" She put the plate on a nightstand at my left "But that's not all, I decided also to let you rest all day and give you anything you need!"

"Well," I said "for now I just want to eat this break-fast. If there is anything else I will make you know it."

"Okay." and she trotted away from the room, humming happily.

"Wait!" I shouted, Twilight stopped and looked at me. "What about the phazon?"

"Well, I sent the letter when I arrived. Then, a quick response came saying that the situation will be taken care of."

I sighed and said "Good. Sorry for my sudden outburst, I am really worried about that thing."

She went straight to me and kissed my cheek. I felt a sudden heat on my face and a warm sensation on my chest. "Don't be sorry, everything is going to be alright."

"Okay." I said dumbly, still recovering from the blush. Twilight just giggled and went downstairs.

Holy shit, what was that?

I moved the top from the plate to reveal some scrambled eggs and pancakes, with silverware at the side. Using my magic I lifted the knife and fork and began eating the oh-so delicious break-fast ( not sarcastically, it was damn good). After finishend the greatness of break-fast, I decided to just sleep more, because why not?

After a nap, I saw some gifts on the nightstand. Looking at them, I saw they were from the girls except, wait for it, Rainbow. I sighed Why she has to be so hostile at me. Well, sooner or later I will make her at least be ok with me. I opened the gifts, starting with the nearest one, from Twilight. Taking the wrapping paper, it was revealed a spell-book, it had a note that said:

'Dear Horacio,

If you want, I can give you magic lessons.

With love, Twilight <3 '

I smiled. Yeah, I thought. Later I will ask her to teach me some magic.

I went for the next gift, it was Pinkie's. It was some cupcakes and a note. I put the cupcakes aside and looked at the note, which said:

'I was negotiating hardly with the author about my fourth-wall breaking in this fic, and he let me tell this. You have something called 'Eagle vision', one of the effects phazon had on you. To activate it just think of that you want to see though walls, you will get what I mean.

This is for you, reader. As long there isn't much solid information known about the phazon. This is kinda valid.'

I read the note with a confused look. Wait I thought. If it was pinkie, this is legit. I did what the note said, thinking I wanted to see through walls. A blinding light came to be. I blinked as a reflex. The world became blue and everything was transparent, still able to see its borders. I looked down, I saw a shining outline of a pony, Twilight. But, the range of the Eagle vision wasn't that much, blurring at the point of blindness a few meters away. When I looked to his left, Pinkie's note was lit up. I missed something

I picked up the note, it was stil legible, even with the glow emanating from it. I looked from the other side, at first glance without the eagle vision I didn't see anything. Now, a fully legible hoof-writing that said:

' To turn off eagle vision just think of the world with normal eyes.

Eagle vision, as other things, changes with the level of phazon corruption.

When the corruption gets higher than 20% percent, giving enough focus, you will be able to hear what somepony says, at 75% even read his/her thoughts.

Wow I thought. Somewhat OP at the moment.

I turned off eagle vision, and went for Rarity's gift. As you levitate something with magic, you still fill how heavy it is; and this, was heavy. I opened it to reveal some clothing, unfolding it showed an outfit similar to my clothes as a pony, but this one had a jacket with a hood. Let me tell you, when I was on Earth, I thought of it as my outfit as a pony. I tried it on, perfect. I looked at myself in the mirror, like a badass. I gave a small chuckle at the thought, took out the outfit and hanged it in the dresser. I decided to look myself on the mirror again, something changed. My eyes, instead of a deep, midnight black; were bright, glowing sky-blue. The corruption I thought. It is starting to affect me.

Out of all of the ordinary, two portals appeared on my right. From where a pony per portal came out. One was a light blue unicorn stallion, brown mane and tail, with a magnifier and telescope cutie mark. The other was a white pegasus with green mane and tail, same gender, also some freckles on his face, he was blank-flank.

I just stared at the bodies and thought, the only thing I could get in my pony brain the rest of this faithful day:

What. The. Actual. Fuck.


That wraps up this chapter.

The ponies at the end are the OC's of my friends, we decided to this story together. At least for their parts.

In other news, anypony interested in playing portal 2 co-op? I am kind of alone in that subject >_>.
