The psychotic gentlegriff

Anubis found himself in the inner confines of his mind and he didn’t like that for a magnitude of reasons. Despite the countless horrors he had been responsible for. the god awful weapons and toxic gases that he experimented with. But they could never hold a candle to the atrocities committed in his first ever lab. Which he was now wondering aimlessly around in, he new it was a dream but it didn’t help calm his nerves. It was the place where he always ended up when he closed his eyes for the night.

He had made a drug in his adult years that put him into a comatose state for 10 hours. allowing his body the rest it needed, meaning he didn’t have to endure this place that he spent 3 long years in. But now he didn’t have it, or for that matter know how to get the ingredients to make it. He knew it had negative side effects but didn’t care. After all a nose bleed was a minor inconvenience for him back then, but he had no idea how it would affect his new body and he didn’t plan on finding out just yet. After all there has to be a magical solution to his problem in this world.

But as he made his way through the facility, he began to notice slight differences from what he was used to. For example he was in the form of his new body and all the deceased test subjects were now ponies and griffons instead of people. Then he got to the worst part, with nothing but a British LA85-A2 assault rifle and a few magazines full of ammunition. He proceeded to fight the same losing battle he had always fought, against all the tormented victims of his insane quest to defy death itself. As he stood alone at the end of the hall he could hear the sound of disembodied screaming charging relentlessly towards him, as he racked the first of many rounds that will be fired.

Sigh “and the dead will rise.”

——————————————————————

“AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!, GOD NO NOT AGAIN!”

His scream of terror rang out through the entire medical wing of the castle, causing some of the royal guards to jump out of their stony faced masks. The medical team that was assigned to monitor his condition, sprang into action with protective padding for their own safety. As the doctor and 2 nurses arrived at his room they saw a guard getting ready to buck down the door. “Wait! No don’t I have a key.” The guard stopped dead in his tracks and looked at the doctor and replied sternly. “Then hurry up and open the door.”

When they got the door open they were greeted by Anubis poring himself a glass of water wearing a shaken look on his face. The nurse from the previous night approached with care and asked. “Are you doing okay Anubis?”

“How do you know my name?” Giving the mare a surprised look that swiftly turned to one of realisation. Oh that family of ponies must have reported me going missing. “I’m fine. No need to worry and what are you wearing? The 3 of you look ridiculous.” The guard smirked at this and the doctor gave him a glare. “Oh sweetie it’s our job to know and this is protective padding made to stop sharp objects from hurting us. It’s okay if you want to talk about it, we can keep it our very own little secret if you want to?”

“No, I said I’m fine. But I would like to see my medical file please? You see I don’t know how old I am.”

“You don’t? Um well I don’t think we can do that right now but I’m sure doctor Tender Treatment may be able to help you. But I think you’re between 12 to 15 years.”

This took Anubis by surprise, by how that family of ponies treated him he had thought he was 10 or 12 but he was wrong. So now I look like a stupid 15 year old griffon, Wonderful.

“From the blood tests, it shows he is 17, nearing 18 years of age, nurse Sweet Tone.”

Nope I’m a fucking idiot of a 17 year old griffon in their eyes. For fuck sakes, I guess that’s what I get for assuming my age.

“He’s seventeen. But he’s a bit small to be that age don’t you think doctor.” The guard asked.

“Ssh, we don’t know how he’ll react to being called short.”

“I have ears, you know?”

“S-Sorry buddy I didn’t mean to call you short.”

“It’s fine. But I would like something to eat please if that’s okay.”

“Sure thing, what would you like?” And with that question, everypony in the room eyes widened in shock, except for the nurse who asked. Sweet turned towards the nurse in question and got up. They both left before I could make an order. And I wanted to say the flesh of the fallen.

The guard gave me a smile and said goodbye, now I was left with the doctor. And I was going to ask an awkward question… for him to answer. “So what age is sexual maturity for a griffon? I mean you’re a doctor.”

And he gave me a questioning look and began to ask his own question. “And why do you ask?”

“Curiosity is why. So how old?”

“16.”

“Cool that’s useful information doc.”

So I was fair game, fuck just what I need more distractions for me to deal with. But who says I have to be a mad scientist again maybe a change of pace. Yeah I’ll make science my hobby.

The two mares returned and one of them had a tray on her back. She set it down on the table and gave me a smile. I hoped up onto the stall and looked at the food I was brought. What the hell is this, there was a lack of meat on the tray. “Um where is the meat?”

“Well little one we um, don’t um, well you understand, we don’t really serve meat.”

Oh god no I’m going to starve to death. Why must this happen to me? I’ve literally been in this world for, 4, fucking days and it’s been nothing but pain and suffering for me why? I have to know.

I felt my eyes began to water as I looked pleadingly at the nurses. “N-not even f-fish and chips?”

They both looked at my face and I knew, I had them rapped around my fingers… I mean claws. Call me a violinist because I’m playing with their heart strings.

“Aw ok, Look sweetie we’ll see what we can do but please don’t get your hopes up, ok?”

“Thank you so much nurse sweet tone.”

And with that little show, they were off to do their best to get something meaty for me.

“That was evil, tricking them like that you know.”

“Yeah but look at this.” I pointed at the green slop of unknown plant matter on the tray. “How I’m i meant to digest that?”

He sighed and nodded his head.

“So can I leave this room or is that a no go.”

“You can, but I wouldn’t recommend it right now their are a lot of ponies here visiting their foals at the moment.“

Oh yeah they were kidnapped, or is it foalnapped? Oh well I’ll just have to find my way to the kitchen. I knew that whatever those nurses were bringing me wasn’t going to feed me. Now, just to get the Doctor to take his eyes off me.

“No time like the present Doc. Let’s go.” I made my way to the door and swung it open wide. The red pony doctor shook his head and followed. “Forward charge.” The doctor laughed at my antics.

ponies stared at me as I swaggered down the halls. Some in amusement. Others in disgust. But I didn’t care. I was on a mission to get food. glorious food. “So, doc where’s the kitchen cuz I need food?”

“Well I can’t really tell you. Anubis.”

“Oh what a shame. Wow what’s that, i have no idea what that is Doc!” And he fell for the oldest trick in the book. But by the time he turned back I was already gone. I felt bad for him but I was hungry and me being hungry was not something I was going to tolerate.

Now I was wondering this maze of never ending marble and pillars, which helped me hide from patrolling guards with ease. But as I was aimlessly searching for food letting my sense of smell guide me to breakfast. But I wasn’t getting anything on the sniff-dar.

After 10 eons of searching I smelled food, good food and it was locked behind two giant wooden doors with a sun in blazed on them. So I gave them a mighty push and they crumbled under my power. To anyone who asks. But in reality they just glided open and I walked in without a care in the world until I locked eyes with a pair of magenta orbs. They had a confused look to them, then I noticed that they were attached to a pony. The biggest pony i had met. “ howdy.”

This got a giggle out of the giant white unicorn with wings. “So got any food you maybe willing to donate to the charity of my stomach? Please.”

“Hehehehe little one how did you wind up here and of course please take a seat. What are you looking to eat?”

“Thank you very much and I’d like… um well can I have something that caters to my dietary needs please.”

This took princess Celestia by surprise. She wondered where this cub had learned such vocabulary. She had the medical file on the table and she knew that the griffon’s file was in the pile. She flipped through the files and found the one she needed all whilst ringing a small bell. Her head chef trotted out of a small door and noticed the griffon sitting at the table. “Um princess if you don’t mind me asking, but why is there a griffon sitting at your table?”

“Because I have allowed him to. Oh and please can you get him something to eat, preferably something for a carnivore.”

The chef grimaced, but nodded and left them both. Now she had started reading his file she blinked in surprise at his age. He’s 17 but, so small for his age, well only in stature. She quickly stomped those thoughts out of her mind. As she read on, shock hit her and she had to do a double take when she had read that his body was riddled with gruesome scars that weren’t recent by any means. Then she heard a voice speak to her. “Excuse me but what are you reading if you don’t mind me asking, oh and the names Anubis Grimgost.”

“Well Anubis Grimgost, I’m reading important paper work and please call me Celestia.” She sent a warm smile his way and he sent a toothy smile back. She noticed the fangs he had and wondered what breed of griffon he was? But couldn’t put her hoof on it.

“Well nice to meet you Celestia but don’t that tiara on your head mean I should be bowing or something? And why do you have a horn and wings?”

“Well Anubis I’d rather be referred to as Celestia in private. as for my wings and horn, that is because I’m a Alicorn.” She saw a opportunity to have a conversation with some-creature that didn’t see her as a goddess and she wasn’t going to waste it.
