Starstruck
Ch.1:Following the Pink Mare
Load Full StoryNext ChapterJames Frost,a male with brown hair and blue eyes,sighed as he received another turned down opportunity.Life was hard as a twenty year old who doesn't have any skills besides being good at sports and video games.Oh well,at least he still had his grandparents who let him stay so long as he helped take care of the upkeep of the house.
In the state of Mississippi,it was hard for most people to find places to hire him.'Well time to tell Gram and Gramps the bad news'thought James as he continued to drive down the road.Things were peaceful today until he saw something in the corner of his eye that caught his interest.Over to the side,was,I kid you not,a pink pony with big blue eyes the size of dinner plates.
"Either that's a pink pony or I'm high off my ass right now"said James as continued to stare.
He wiped his eyes to make sure he wasn't hallucinating only to find that the pony disappeared.
Strange.Oh well he had to get back home and tell his grandparents about his missed opportunity to be a bank teller.Damn that job would have kept him paid.Especially since he would be working in a bank after all.The drive to his grandparents was short since they didn't live that far from town although it wasn't to say that they were surrounded by a bunch of modern structures like say a McDonald's or something.Well he didn't even get that job either so yeah.
After James parked his 1978 mustang in front of the house,he was greeted by the site of his grandfather drinking a beer while fishing at the dock at the pond.He chuckled as he saw his grandpa wearing his old lucky fisherman hat that he found one day when he was a kid.It looked goofy on him but he would always argue to James that it was really was lucky even if it did look weird on him.
"How was the interview,James?"asked his grandpa as he saw him walking towards him.
"Well they kinda said I was no good.I'm kinda starting to believe them about now."admitted James.
"Now you listen here,boy.You aren't worthless.You are unique and they are making a big mistake not hiring you."said Gramps as he took a swig of his Miller Lite.
"Tell that to them and they would laugh straight in your face."
His grandfather sighed as he looked at his grandson with a sad smile.
"You make this look hard,James.It really isn't.Life is kinda like fishing.You win some and you lose some,but when you have an opportunity hooked on the line make sure you reel her in.That reminds have seen any pretty lasses that caught your eye,son?"
James laughed at that and answered his question shyly.
"Gramps,you know I'm not good at the whole dating thing.Besides why so interested in this topic anyways?"
"I want great grandchildren you know.I ain't getting any younger neither is your grandmother."
stated Gramps with a sly smile.
"What about Robert and his kids?"James asked when he remember his brother.
"I meant kids who have sense in them not hooligans.I swear that boy doesn't know how to raise a kid.I wonder sometimes if he even feeds them right or takes them to school."
"Well they must be getting their education from someplace,right?Robert isn't exactly a bright guy."stated James with a smirk.
"Well that is true,I suppose.Well I won't bother you so go ahead and head inside.Your grandmother is in town right now so I'm sure she'll be eager to here how things went once she gets back."
James nodded to his grandfather and headed inside the house.The house itself was nicely furnished and was built back in 1955.Now it has been modernized with better electricity and cleaner well water.Anyways,he grabbed a snack from the kitchen and headed into his room where his playstation 4 was.He started the system and played some God of War almost beating the game until he heard something near his window.
James looked over and shrugged,but it happened again which caused him to sigh.
"Gramps,this better not be one of your pranks!"yelled James aloud.
Eventually he got curious so he decided to investigate the noise.He looked out the window to see if he saw anything.His eyes wander until they stopped on something familiar.It was the pink pony from before.He climbed out his window and decided to walk towards the pony only for it run further into the woods.
"WAIT!"yelled James as he followed after it.
He continued after it as it led him through bunch of branches and leaves hitting him in the face.He wondered why a pink pastel pony with alienlike eyes was doing in Mississippi of all places.His thoughts was interrupted when he heard a loud female voice whisper to him.
"Pssspt!Over here,silly billy!"
He raised a brow at that and reluctantly followed.
"If you say so,mysterious voice"said James who looked rather unnerved by what was possibly the pony speaking to him.
Man,is Gramps gonna be laughing his ass off once he returns home and telling him that he followed a talking pink pony into the woods.Speaking of which,the mare in question continued to lead him into every weird direction to take into these
goddamn woods.He swatted at the annoying limbs on the small trees and tried to keep up with the pink mare.This was getting annoying.
"HEY!LOOK THIS HAS BEEN FUN BUT I NEED TO HEAD HOME!BYE STRANGE TALKING PONY THING!"James yelled towards the direction of the pony.
"WAIT DON'T GO!I HAVE A SURPRISE WAITING FOR YOU,JAMES"
'Wait how the fuck did she know my name.This is so weird.'thought James.
"OKAY!JUST DON'T KILL AND EAT ME!I'M NOT TASTY AT ALL!"He yelled back.
"OKEI DOKI LOKI!"She responded.
She signaled him to follow him when her hoof came out of nowhere.Damn this is like some looney tunes shit this mare is pulling.She might give Bugs Bunny a run for his money.Once they reached their destination,the mare stood in front of a old mossy stone well.Before could ask her,why they were here,she jumped into the well causing James to freak out.He ran up to well to find not water but some weird portal inside.He backed up from it and only to have a pink hoof pull him in.Everything went dark after that.
