My Little Pony: Abnormal
Prequel - A Stallion's Lament
Load Full StoryNext ChapterFreak...monster...alien...these were just some of the things I heard back home. I come from far, far away. If you asked me how I managed to make it this far, I would simply tell you that I just got lucky. And I wouldn't be technically wrong about saying that either because it was pure luck, I ended up the way I did. Even if I personally think it was a cosmic case of extreme bad luck that gave me my...condition.
Let me start from the beginning. I'm a Pegasus stallion by the name of Robert Snowden, but I personally prefer to be called Rob. From the day I was born to my early childhood, I was seemingly just another male Pegasus. And then...it happened. One day on the playground, a bunch of bullies pestered me, and would not let up. Out of nowhere, something blasted forth from my hooves, and it scared ponies away from me. And things just kept getting worse as I grew up, with more and more seemingly impossible abilities coming from my very being.
I found out as I reached my teenage years that I had somehow been gifted the abilities of all three Pony tribes in their most extreme forms: The ability to harness the power of the earth like the most well-connected Earth Ponies; the ability to fly at fast speeds like the most talented Pegasi; and the ability to use advanced magic spells like the most gifted Unicorns. And yet, despite clearly having the powers of an Alicorn, I remained to look like a normal Pegasus Stallion.
I've since managed to find a way to better control my powers, but the sting of them never left me when it came to trying to make friends. Eventually I decided that I had enough. I ran away from home. Very far away. I didn't stop until I had flown over this massive forest.
That brought me here, to this cliff. I have found a sign just outside the village's outskirts that named the town. Ponyville is its name. And this is where I plan on making my fresh start. This time, I will do everything I can to be the one thing I know deep down I'm not which is normal.
Because the reality is the exact opposite. If you asked anyone back home what kind of person I was, they'd all tell you the truth.
That I am Abnormal.
