Princess Potty Perilby SuperPinkBrony12ChaptersFlurry Gets FlushedEnding Number One: One Way TripEnding Number Two: Toilet Trouble, Times TwoFlurry Gets FlushedAuthor's Note Here are the two comic sketches that inspired this fanfic: And don't worry, just like this fic's semi-prequel, Flurry will survive her trip down the drain. Flurry Gets Flushed In the dark of night in the Crystal Empire, Flurry Heart stirred awake in her crib inside her royal nursery, itself within the confines of the crystal castle at the Crystal Empire. Something had roused her from sleep, and soon she knew what it was. Her little bladder had filled up from that bottle of milk she’d had before bed, and now it was ready to come out. Up until a few months ago, this wouldn’t be a problem for the young heir to the crystal throne. She could just pee into her diaper and fall back asleep no problem, knowing that either her mommy or her daddy would surely change her at some point (and if not them, surely either her crystaller or somepony else responsible for caring for her). But she couldn’t do that anymore. She was now in potty training, and her mommy and daddy had both made it quite clear to her that if she wanted to be a “big filly” and get “big filly pants” (whatever those were), she couldn’t go pee-pee or poo-poo in her diapers. Now, she was expected to use her own little potty chair that they’d bought for her. It was just unfortunate that said potty chair wasn't anywhere near her crib. So it was that the toddler alicorn foal stood up and began to flap her little wings. She was getting pretty good at not only knowing when she had to go potty, but also holding it in until she could make it to a potty to go potty. “Mommy? Daddy?” She called out to the darkness, finding that it was the middle of the night. There was no reply, it seemed both her parents were fast asleep. Usually, at least one of them was supposed to help with escorting her to her potty chair. But this time, neither of them were on hoof to do it. Oh well, that just meant Flurry would have to find her way to her potty chair all by herself. It would be a fun little adventure for her, and surely her parents wouldn’t be too upset with her if they found out she had left her crib in order to go potty like they wanted her to. Besides, if they could go potty all by themselves, why couldn’t she? That was what a "big fily" did, no? Flapping her wings some more, Flurry flew out of her nursery and slowly but surely made her way down the dark hallways of the crystal castle. All the while she concentrated on holding back her steadily growing urge to pee. She really didn’t want to piddle in her pampers, that wouldn’t be a “big filly” thing to do. But she couldn’t hold it in for much longer, her bladder was starting to scream at her, begging for release! The little filly needed to find her potty chair soon (or find something that could be a suitable stand in for it)! Suddenly, the little one’s eyes spotted a faint, flickering light at the end of the hallway! Could it be?! There was only one way to find out! Frantically flapping her wings, Flurry fluttered and flew towards the light. Sure enough, she saw a sign above a door with words she could not make out. But having seen the sign so many times before, she knew at once what it was: It was the official royal crystal bathroom. The bathroom her potty chair resided in. And what luck, the door was open! Flurry wasted no time in flying through it, entering into the bathroom proper. By now, her eyes were starting to adjust to the darkness, aided in part by a little bit of moonlight peeking in through a window. She could now see the toilet, giggling when she noticed that the lid and the seat were up and not down. Her daddy had probably forgotten to put them back down after the last time he had used it. Come to think if, didn’t Flurry Heart remember something happening with this toilet a while back? Something about her daddy, and how he had gone down the drain by accident? But then again, hadn’t her mommy said that you couldn’t go down the drain even if you wanted to? Well, those were thoughts for another time and place. Right now, Flurry was more concerned about the reason for her coming into the bathroom in the first place, her need to pee! Fortunately, her potty chair was right next to the toilet, just like it always was. It had been cleaned and was spotless, ready for use. Wasting no time, the alicorn foal fluttered across the toilet to reach her potty chair. Once she did, she slowly lowered herself onto it and plopped her rump onto it with only seconds to spare! Then she blushed as she realized she had almost forgotten the most important step: Taking off her diaper! It would be silly to sit on the potty if she was just going to go in her diaper instead. So, lighting up her horn, the toddler alicorn hastily and clumsily pulled her padding down to her ankles. Then Flurry relaxed and sighed as her bladder finally relieved itself, a steady tinkling sound echoing into the plastic potty that dispelled the silence of the night. Thank goodness she had made it in time. Oh, if only her parents could see her now. They would be so proud of her. Oh well, perhaps next time. At last, the stream died down and the tinkling stopped. Flurry’s bladder was empty once again, but her potty was nice and full. The little filly felt so proud of herself for making it in time! Maybe once her parents saw this, she’d finally be rewarded with those “big filly pants” they’d talked about (whatever they were). The foal was prepared to pull her diaper back up, when she stopped as she suddenly remembered that she was supposed to wipe herself after going potty: Be it number one or number two. With a sigh, the foal let her diaper fall back and then used her magic to pull some toilet paper off of a rack next to the toilet. She tried to wipe herself as best she could, trying to remember how her mommy and daddy always did it: Front to back and then back to front. Once satisfied that she had done an adequate job of wiping herself, the toddler alicorn pulled her diaper up back properly. It didn’t really want to stay on, but a little bit of magic from her horn ensured it wouldn’t keep sliding down her and potentially fall off. All that remained now was for her to put the toilet paper in the toilet and flush it, then she’d just need to wash her hooves and she would be done. But Flurry Heart was feeling a little bit mischievous. Just flushing the toilet paper wouldn’t be any fun. As long as she was here, why not enjoy herself and play with the toilet a little bit by seeing what else she could flush down it? Nopony ever said potty training couldn’t be fun. So, with the piece of wet toilet paper still held aloft in the soft glow of her horn, Flurry began to levitate some other objects in preparation for flushing them. Among them was a bar of soap. The foal began to put all those things on top of the toilet, intending to throw them down into the bowl and then flush them away. But then something else caught her attention, something resting atop the toilet near the handle. It looked like some kind of bottle. Whatever it was, she wanted to see it (and probably to flush it down). Flapping her wings again, Flurry flew up onto the toilet tank and lowered her hooves onto it. Slowly, she began to crawl over towards the object that had caught her attention. Suddenly, however, the foal felt her hooves slip! She had forgotten about the bar of soap she had put on top of the toilet! As a result, Flurry lost her balance and fell off the tank! She plunged into the toilet bowl face first with a splash! There was worse to come! The bar of soap had moved as a result of Flurry Heart slipping on it. It too dropped off the tank and fell down. As it did so, it hit the handle off to the right hoof side of the toilet. The handle plunged downward as a result with a click, activating the flush cycle! Flurry surfaced in the bowl just in time to hear a click, and then a low rumble that steadily became a mighty roar! What was happening? What was making that sound? “Fwoosh!” Roared the toilet as the flush cycle kicked in, the waters in the toilet starting to swirl and spin around and around! And before she knew it, little Flurry Heart began to spin with them, tossed one way and then another! She was too disoriented to see straight, let alone think straight, as the waters spun faster and faster! “MOMMY! DADDY! HELP!” Flurry screamed and cried at the top of her lungs, hoping to be overheard! Alas, no help came. And mere seconds after she had hollered, the foal felt a powerful suction take hold of her! The waters were retreating, heading downward and taking poor Flurry with them! There was no way for her to escape! With a gargled cry of “Glug! Glug! Glug!” Flurry was flushed down the drain as the flush cycle finally came to an end! There was a faint gulp as the toilet devoured its unsuspecting prey, and then the waters slowly in the bowl slowly began to refill. But there was no sign of the poor unfortunate filly who had just been flushed away, bound for Celestia knows where?! What happens next? Does Flurry Heart end up in the sewers, and has to escape on her own? Do Shining Armor and Cadence find out Flurry got flushed, and use a plunger to try to get her out? Ending Number One: One Way TripAuthor's Note The endings here being number one and number two are quite intentional. After all, we are dealing with toilets. Ending Number One: One Way Trip The ride was only just beginning when Flurry Heart was flushed down the drain! Down, down, down she went on what was a very frightening water slide! Soon, she had disappeared through the hole in the toilet and plunged into the cold steel of the pipes, unable to escape as the water carried her along on its journey to... wherever it went when you flushed the toilet.. Everything went dark, the foal couldn’t see where she was going (or even where she had come from). Often, she would be tossed in one direction very suddenly, as the pipes changed direction on her several times. All the while, Flurry kept screaming, yelling and crying, hoping that somepony would hear her and would get her out. Her mommy had been wrong, you very well could go down the drain! Needless to say, poor Flurry now knew the hard way that you had to be careful around the toilet. She most certainly wouldn’t play around with the flush anymore, assuming she ever escaped from… wherever it was she was going. There had to be an exit at some point, right? At last, light began to flood the foal’s vision! This was it, a way out! The light was fast approaching, and the foal braced herself for whatever was to come! Suddenly, with a plop, Flurry dropped out of the pipes. Her padded posture promptly plopped down into murky, foul smelling water with a splash. It smelled awful! It was like her dirty diapers before they were changed, but far, far worse! Of course, she should’ve expected as much when this was where ponies’ pee pees and poo poos ended up. But that didn’t make the stench any more tolerable. Now she understood why her parents made those funny faces whenever they changed her diapers, and why sometimes the bathroom smelled so bad. To make matters worse, the toddler alicorn’s diaper was fast filling up with the murky, foul smelling waters and was now beginning to sag. All that work to keep her diaper clean earlier, and now it might as well have not mattered at all, she might as well have just gone pee pee into it. It was uncomfortably wet, heavy, and squishy (not to mention it smelled really bad). Flurry Heart tried to stand up, hoping to at least keep her diaper from getting wet any further. But the weight of her sagging diaper, combined with the overall depths of the nasty water prevented her from doing so. In fact, it just made her fall back down, further submerging her backside into the muck! Looking around, the little filly could see what looked like bricks. Not the kind of colored, plastic bricks she often played with, these bricks were drab and looked very worn. Strangely, she could also sometimes see what appeared to be ladders. And vents could be seen too. Did ponies sometimes come down into this place? Did ponies live down here for some reason? Who would ever want to live in a world that smelled constantly of pee pee and poo poo? The alicorn foal and heir to the crystal throne didn’t know. If she ever got out of here, she probably wouldn’t want to find out. She just wanted to get back home to her mommy and daddy, and be safe and secure once more in her crib! This all felt like a bad dream, but it was far too real to be one. Unable to find a way out, the only thing the flushed foal could do was float along and follow the waters. She wasn’t anywhere near strong enough to fight against the pull of the current, and even if she could she didn’t know where she could go. Her wings couldn’t possibly handle the added weight of her filled up diaper, and neither did she believe she had the magical strength to pick herself up. Teleporting was also out of the question, she had no idea where she was or where she would go. She was probably far, far away from the castle she lived in with her parents. Maybe she wasn't even in the Crystal Empire anymore. So Flurry Heart floated along for mile after mile, hoping that wherever these waters lead it was to a place where she could get out and get back home. Her mommy and daddy were surely starting to worry about her by now, assuming they had woken up and checked the bathroom, where they were sure to find her full training potty (among other things). Then, up ahead, Flurry’s eyes beheld a truly terrifying sight! A huge, spinning thing was fast approaching! The waters were flowing through it pretty easily, but she doubted she would be as lucky! That thing would surely slice and dice her to pieces if she didn’t do something fast! But what?! Frantically, the frightened foal tried to fight against the pull of the curtain, hoping to break free and escape before she could be pulled anywhere close to that spinning thing! Despite her best efforts, however, it was a losing battle as she came nearer and nearer to the sharp blades! Just as the little filly had resigned herself to her inescapable fate, she felt something move within her. Or rather, down her. It was her diaper! It had sagged so much it could no longer stay on. It slipped off her rump and flowed out ahead of her, bobbing up and down like a cork. When it reached the spinning blades, it did not get sliced into pieces as Flurry had been expecting. Instead, the super soggy padding wedged itself between the two blades! Just like that, the spinning stopped. And when the spinning stopped, so did the pull of the current. Flurry’s diaper had saved her! “You the best, diaper!” She cheered! Never again would she take the padded undergarment for granted, even if she did still want to be a “big filly”. A moment later, Flurry Heart’s ears picked up the sound of something being moved. Something heavy. She could also hear voices, albeit unfamiliar ones. And it sounded like they were saying something to each other. In addition, a faint trace of light could be seen a ways away. “Yeah, I think I see the problem,” A gruff sounding voice called, echoing across the narrow confines of the structure. “Looks like somepony flushed a diaper, probably a dirty one from the looks of it.” “Hey, is that a doll I see?” Another voice spoke up. “Who would flush a doll down the toilet? Don’t ponies know toilets are expensive to fix? Were they trying to clog up the entire sewer system or something?” Flurry didn’t know who those voices belonged to, but they sounded friendly enough. With her soggy, saggy diaper no longer weighing her down, she was free to flap her wings and approach the location where the voices were coming from. She was saved! These ponies would surely take her back to her parents. Two crystal ponies blinked in surprise as they were suddenly and unexpectedly greeted by the foul smelling presence of the heir to the crystal throne. “Hey, wait a minute,” A green coated crystal pony with ruby red eyes spoke up. “Flurry Heart? What were you doing down there? Don’t you know the sewers are not a playground?!” Flurry whimpered as she apologized. “Me sorry. Me go down the toilet by accident. Me no mean to get flushed.” A dark purple coated crystal pony with amber yellow eyes shook his head from side to side. “Kid, everypony knows it’s impossible for ponies to get flushed down the toilet. I don’t know what you flushed into the sewers or why you went into them, but it’s a good thing we found you when you did. I just hope you didn’t break anything.” The green coated crystal pony then sniffed and gagged. “Ugh! We should probably give you a bath first! Oh dear Celestia, and I thought my nephew’s dirty diapers were bad! They’re nothing compared to this!” Flurry’s face flushed fiercely. Still, at least she was relieved to be out of… whatever that place had been. Perhaps she hadn’t imagined her daddy going down the drain after all. If so, she owed him an apology for sending him to such a foul smelling place as this. Ending Number Two: Toilet Trouble, Times TwoAuthor's Note And thus we have the other ending. As of yet, there's no story for Cadence going down the drain. Ending Number Two: Toilet Trouble, Times Two Shining Armor and Princess Cadence were abruptly roused from their peaceful slumber when they both swore they heard the faint sound of crying coming from the other end of the hallway from their bedroom. It sounded like their daughter had been calling out for help. But why? Yawning and shaking themselves awake to the best of their ability, the crystal couple got out of bed and got to their hooves. They quickly realized where the scream had come from. “Sounds like Flurry Heart’s having trouble in the bathroom again,” Princess Cadence commented with a sigh. “She probably waited too long before trying to go potty and had another accident.” Shining Armor could only shake his head from side to side. “She was doing so well too. I guess they can’t all be like Twily, she was a potty training pro: Never had a single wet or messy diaper once she started using her potty chair.” The princess of love simply sighed anew. “We’d better go comfort her, and clean up whatever mess she’s made. At this rate, she’s not going to be ready for her big filly pants anytime soon. I was so sure she was ready. Maybe we should've held off.” "Well, that's a discussion for later, dear," Shining replied. "For now, let's get whatever mess awaits us cleaned up." So the crystal couple then trotted out of their bedroom, and headed down the long and winding hallway to the bathroom where they had set up their daughter’s potty chair. They expected to find the bathroom light on, and be greeted by either the site of a puddle or the smell of a dirty diaper that needed to be changed. But to the surprise of both husband and wife, they found that the bathroom was completely dark by the time they got there. The only source of illumination was the faint rays of Luna’s moon as they peeked in through a window. That struck them as most odd. If Flurry had been in the bathroom, why weren’t the lights on? The oddities continued as the two trotted into the bathroom, Cadence using her magic to turn on the lights to help with the inspection. There wasn’t a pony in sight besides them. Flurry Heart was nowhere to be seen. “Flurry?” Cadence called out. “Flurry Heart, where are you?” Shining sniffed the air, hoping to smell his daughter if she was trying to hide from her shame. Strangely enough, though, he couldn’t detect any odors. No smelly smells that smelled smelly. And by chance, his wandering eyes fell upon his daughter’s training potty. Picking up with his magic, he discovered that it was full. “Flurry’s definitely been in here. But she went pee pee in her potty like a big filly.” He declared. The princess of love was now most confused. “So, if she didn’t have any trouble making it to her potty, why would she be crying and screaming? And how come she’s not here now?” Her eyes looked all around the bathroom. “Where could she be? It doesn't make sense.” Setting the training potty back down, Shining joined his wife in continuing to inspect every nook and crany of the bathroom. By chance, his gaze happened to cross the toilet, and some objects lying next to: A bar of soap and a clearly used piece of toilet paper that had an obvious wet spot right in the middle. Suddenly, a nagging thought came into the stallion’s mind. “Could it really be?” He wondered aloud. “Could what?” Princess Cadence questioned, before she noticed her husband looking at the toilet. She sighed and rolled her eyes when she saw the toilet lid and seat were up and not down. “Shining, I can’t believe you left the seat up again! One of these days, I’m going to fall in if you keep doing this.” But the stallion was preoccupied with other thoughts as he said. “Actually, I’m beginning to think I had a very good reason for leaving it up this time. It wasn’t because I forgot.” The princess of love blinked in confusion. “Whatever are you talking about, dear? Do you know something I don’t?” Shining Armor firmly nodded. “I think I do,” Sighing and taking a deep breath he explained. “I know where Flurry Heart is. You’re not gonna believe this, but I think she got flushed down the toilet.” Cadence had to resist the urge to throw back her head and laugh. “Oh Shining, don’t be ridiculous. You and I both know it’s impossible for anypony to be flushed down the toilet. Don’t you remember us telling Twilight when she was in potty training that you can’t go down the drain?” Shining could only reply. “I thought it was all just a dream, but now I’m starting to think it wasn’t. Somehow, Flurry must’ve enchanted this toilet somehow, making it capable of flushing even a full grown pony. It happened to me once, Flurry flushed me by accident. And now, it looks like the same thing happened to her, somehow.” The princess of love’s face contorted into a frown. “Shining, will you please stop it with the nonsense? This is serious! You don’t honestly think our daughter got flushed, do you? It’s just not possible. Besides, there’s nothing to indicate that anypony could’ve gone down the drain.” But Shining gestured a hoof. “I don’t know about that, Cadence. Look!” When his wife did so, he joined her in peering down at the toilet bowl. By now, it was possible to see that the water in it was overflowing, spilling out of the bowl and onto the floor. That meant only one thing! “Great, so the toilet is clogged up,” Cadence sighed. “Good thing we keep the plunger close by.” And she used her magic to pick up the plunger, placing its rubber end in the toilet bowl. “Hold on, Flurry Heart!” Shining Armor called to the drain! “Mommy and Daddy will get you out!” Princess Cadence, for her part, just concentrated on plunging the toilet in the hopes of removing whatever obstruction was causing the clog. Working hard, the princess of love moved the plunger up and down several times. But despite her best efforts, she couldn’t unclog whatever was clogging up the toilet. All she succeeded in doing was splashing more water out of the bowl. “Whatever’s causing this clog, it sure is stubborn!” She declared with a frown. “I think we might have to call a plumber.” “Just keep trying, Cadence!” Shining Armor urged his wife. “If worse comes to worse, we’ll have to check the sewers. If Flurry isn’t stuck in this toilet, that’s where she’ll be for sure.” The frown on Cadence’s face grew deeper, to the point where it almost looked like it could fall off her face. While plunging yet again, she all but shouted! “Flurry Heart Sparkle, you come out of wherever it is you’re hiding right now! This isn’t funny anymore! You’re making your daddy believe you got flushed down the toilet, so come out of wherever it is you are so he can stop talking nonsense! It's okay if you clogged the toilet by accident, I promise I won't be mad with you.” Just seconds later, the two ponies thought they heard a garbled cry. It sounded like it was coming directly from the drain. And then, suddenly, Princess Cadence felt the rubber end of the plunger make contact with something! She began to pull hard, trying to lift the plunger out of the toilet! But whatever was attached to the plunger was fighting her, it seemed to be very heavy and was weighing the princess of love down. Shining Armor rushed over and lit up his horn, allowing his magic to surround the plunger as well. “We’ll do it on three!” He told his wife. “Ready?” When he received a confirming nod he shouted. “Okay! One, two, three!” And he and the princess yanked as hard as they could on the plunger with their hooves and their magic! The obstruction came free with a loud pop! The water in the toilet bowl finally receded, retreating back down the drain now that the clog had been removed. And what, or rather who should be clinging to the rubber end of the plunger as it was pulled into the air, but a very soggy (and very frightened) Flurry Heart? Her diaper had swelled up with toilet water, sagging to the point where it was a miracle it hadn’t fallen off. Cadence’s eyes went wide in disbelief! Shining had been right all along, their daughter had indeed gotten flushed, somehow. “Flurry Heart?!” She gasped! “How did you… I mean, there’s no way you could’ve…” Shining wanted to giggle and grin at his wife, giving her an “I told you so” kind of look. But he didn’t, right now there was a much more pressing matter he needed to take care of. “Flurry Heart, are you alright?” He asked his daughter as he pulled her free from the plunger with his magic, and carefully setting her upon the floor. Flurry Heart nodded quite slowly, relieved to have been rescued. “Me sorry, Mommy and Daddy. Me get flushed by accident after me go potty.” She apologized. “Flurry, why didn’t you come and get us?” Shining questioned his daughter. “Now look at the mess you’ve caused.” He gestured a hoof to the water logged floor tiles that were a direct result of the toilet overflowing, which in turn had been caused by Flurry clogging it up by accidentally flushing herself. “Me wanted to be big filly.” Flurry confessed. Cadence, finally having recovered from the shock of it all, sighed. She then used her magic to summon towels to dry off her waterlogged daughter, all the while telling her. “Flurry, the real big filly thing to do in your case would’ve been to come get your father or, I, or even one of the castle staff. That’s what they’re for. It’s great that you wanted to try to go potty all by yourself, but look what happened.” The alicorn foal whimpered. “Me know. Me not gonna do it again. Me promise.” Shining Armor then replied. “Well, at least you’re okay. Thank Celestia you didn’t end up in the sewers like I did.” “Uh-huh, and me sorry for flushing you, Daddy,” Flurry Heart apologized. “Me sorry me make toilet do what it not supposed to do.” “Well, I guess we’ll have to get Sunburst or Mistmane to take a look at the toilet,” Princess Cadence reluctantly commented. “Hopefully, they can undo whatever it is that’s made this toilet’s flush so strong. In the meantime, Flurry, please don’t ever try to use or flush the toilet without a grown-up around to help you. We can’t risk another scare like this.”
Flurry Gets FlushedAuthor's Note Here are the two comic sketches that inspired this fanfic: And don't worry, just like this fic's semi-prequel, Flurry will survive her trip down the drain. Flurry Gets Flushed In the dark of night in the Crystal Empire, Flurry Heart stirred awake in her crib inside her royal nursery, itself within the confines of the crystal castle at the Crystal Empire. Something had roused her from sleep, and soon she knew what it was. Her little bladder had filled up from that bottle of milk she’d had before bed, and now it was ready to come out. Up until a few months ago, this wouldn’t be a problem for the young heir to the crystal throne.

All the while she concentrated on holding back her steadily growing urge to pee. She really didn’t want to piddle in her pampers, that wouldn’t be a “big filly” thing to do. But she couldn’t hold it in for much longer, her bladder was starting to scream at her, begging for release!

Then she blushed as she realized she had almost forgotten the most important step: Taking off her diaper! It would be silly to sit on the potty if she was just going to go in her diaper instead. So, lighting up her horn, the toddler alicorn hastily and clumsily pulled her padding down to her ankles. Then Flurry relaxed and sighed as her bladder finally relieved itself, a steady tinkling sound echoing into the plastic potty that dispelled the silence of the night. Thank goodness she had made it in time. Oh, if only her parents could see her now. They would be so proud of her. Oh well, perhaps next time. At last, the stream died down and the tinkling stopped. Flurry’s bladder was empty once again, but her potty was nice and full. The little filly felt so proud of herself for making it in time! Maybe once her parents saw this, she’d finally be rewarded with those “big filly pants” they’d talked about (whatever they were). The foal was prepared to pull her diaper back up, when she stopped as she suddenly remembered that she was supposed to wipe herself after going potty: Be it number one or number two. With a sigh, the foal let her diaper fall back and then used her magic to pull some toilet paper off of a rack next to the toilet. She tried to wipe herself as best she could, trying to remember how her mommy and daddy always did it: Front to back and then back to front. Once satisfied that she had done an adequate job of wiping herself, the toddler alicorn pulled her diaper up back properly. It didn’t really want to stay on, but a little bit of magic from her horn ensured it wouldn’t keep sliding down her and potentially fall off. All that remained now was for her to put the toilet paper in the toilet and flush it, then she’d just need to wash her hooves and she would be done. But Flurry Heart was feeling a little bit mischievous. Just flushing the toilet paper wouldn’t be any fun. As long as she was here, why not enjoy herself and play with the toilet a little bit by seeing what else she could flush down it? Nopony ever said potty training couldn’t be fun. So, with the piece of wet toilet paper still held aloft in the soft glow of her horn, Flurry began to levitate some other objects in preparation for flushing them. Among them was a bar of soap. The foal began to put all those things on top of the toilet, intending to throw them down into the bowl and then flush them away. But then something else caught her attention, something resting atop the toilet near the handle. It looked like some kind of bottle. Whatever it was, she wanted to see it (and probably to flush it down). Flapping her wings again, Flurry flew up onto the toilet tank and lowered her hooves onto it. Slowly, she began to crawl over towards the object that had caught her attention. Suddenly, however, the foal felt her hooves slip! She had forgotten about the bar of soap she had put on top of the toilet! As a result, Flurry lost her balance and fell off the tank! She plunged into the toilet bowl face first with a splash! There was worse to come! The bar of soap had moved as a result of Flurry Heart slipping on it. It too dropped off the tank and fell down. As it did so, it hit the handle off to the right hoof side of the toilet. The handle plunged downward as a result with a click, activating the flush cycle! Flurry surfaced in the bowl just in time to hear a click, and then a low rumble that steadily became a mighty roar! What was happening? What was making that sound? “Fwoosh!” Roared the toilet as the flush cycle kicked in, the waters in the toilet starting to swirl and spin around and around! And before she knew it, little Flurry Heart began to spin with them, tossed one way and then another! She was too disoriented to see straight, let alone think straight, as the waters spun faster and faster! “MOMMY! DADDY! HELP!” Flurry screamed and cried at the top of her lungs, hoping to be overheard! Alas, no help came. And mere seconds after she had hollered, the foal felt a powerful suction take hold of her! The waters were retreating, heading downward and taking poor Flurry with them! There was no way for her to escape! With a gargled cry of “Glug! Glug! Glug!” Flurry was flushed down the drain as the flush cycle finally came to an end! There was a faint gulp as the toilet devoured its unsuspecting prey, and then the waters slowly in the bowl slowly began to refill. But there was no sign of the poor unfortunate filly who had just been flushed away, bound for Celestia knows where?! What happens next? Does Flurry Heart end up in the sewers, and has to escape on her own? Do Shining Armor and Cadence find out Flurry got flushed, and use a plunger to try to get her out?
Ending Number One: One Way TripAuthor's Note The endings here being number one and number two are quite intentional. After all, we are dealing with toilets. Ending Number One: One Way Trip The ride was only just beginning when Flurry Heart was flushed down the drain! Down, down, down she went on what was a very frightening water slide! Soon, she had disappeared through the hole in the toilet and plunged into the cold steel of the pipes, unable to escape as the water carried her along on its journey to... wherever it went when you flushed the toilet.. Everything went dark, the foal couldn’t see where she was going (or even where she had come from). Often, she would be tossed in one direction very suddenly, as the pipes changed direction on her several times. All the while, Flurry kept screaming, yelling and crying, hoping that somepony would hear her and would get her out. Her mommy had been wrong, you very well could go down the drain! Needless to say, poor Flurry now knew the hard way that you had to be careful around the toilet. She most certainly wouldn’t play around with the flush anymore, assuming she ever escaped from… wherever it was she was going. There had to be an exit at some point, right? At last, light began to flood the foal’s vision! This was it, a way out! The light was fast approaching, and the foal braced herself for whatever was to come! Suddenly, with a plop, Flurry dropped out of the pipes. Her padded posture promptly plopped down into murky, foul smelling water with a splash. It smelled awful! It was like her dirty diapers before they were changed, but far, far worse! Of course, she should’ve expected as much when this was where ponies’ pee pees and poo poos ended up. But that didn’t make the stench any more tolerable. Now she understood why her parents made those funny faces whenever they changed her diapers, and why sometimes the bathroom smelled so bad. To make matters worse, the toddler alicorn’s diaper was fast filling up with the murky, foul smelling waters and was now beginning to sag. All that work to keep her diaper clean earlier, and now it might as well have not mattered at all, she might as well have just gone pee pee into it. It was uncomfortably wet, heavy, and squishy (not to mention it smelled really bad). Flurry Heart tried to stand up, hoping to at least keep her diaper from getting wet any further. But the weight of her sagging diaper, combined with the overall depths of the nasty water prevented her from doing so. In fact, it just made her fall back down, further submerging her backside into the muck! Looking around, the little filly could see what looked like bricks. Not the kind of colored, plastic bricks she often played with, these bricks were drab and looked very worn. Strangely, she could also sometimes see what appeared to be ladders. And vents could be seen too. Did ponies sometimes come down into this place? Did ponies live down here for some reason? Who would ever want to live in a world that smelled constantly of pee pee and poo poo? The alicorn foal and heir to the crystal throne didn’t know. If she ever got out of here, she probably wouldn’t want to find out. She just wanted to get back home to her mommy and daddy, and be safe and secure once more in her crib! This all felt like a bad dream, but it was far too real to be one. Unable to find a way out, the only thing the flushed foal could do was float along and follow the waters. She wasn’t anywhere near strong enough to fight against the pull of the current, and even if she could she didn’t know where she could go. Her wings couldn’t possibly handle the added weight of her filled up diaper, and neither did she believe she had the magical strength to pick herself up. Teleporting was also out of the question, she had no idea where she was or where she would go. She was probably far, far away from the castle she lived in with her parents. Maybe she wasn't even in the Crystal Empire anymore. So Flurry Heart floated along for mile after mile, hoping that wherever these waters lead it was to a place where she could get out and get back home. Her mommy and daddy were surely starting to worry about her by now, assuming they had woken up and checked the bathroom, where they were sure to find her full training potty (among other things). Then, up ahead, Flurry’s eyes beheld a truly terrifying sight! A huge, spinning thing was fast approaching! The waters were flowing through it pretty easily, but she doubted she would be as lucky! That thing would surely slice and dice her to pieces if she didn’t do something fast! But what?! Frantically, the frightened foal tried to fight against the pull of the curtain, hoping to break free and escape before she could be pulled anywhere close to that spinning thing! Despite her best efforts, however, it was a losing battle as she came nearer and nearer to the sharp blades! Just as the little filly had resigned herself to her inescapable fate, she felt something move within her. Or rather, down her. It was her diaper! It had sagged so much it could no longer stay on. It slipped off her rump and flowed out ahead of her, bobbing up and down like a cork. When it reached the spinning blades, it did not get sliced into pieces as Flurry had been expecting. Instead, the super soggy padding wedged itself between the two blades! Just like that, the spinning stopped. And when the spinning stopped, so did the pull of the current. Flurry’s diaper had saved her! “You the best, diaper!” She cheered! Never again would she take the padded undergarment for granted, even if she did still want to be a “big filly”. A moment later, Flurry Heart’s ears picked up the sound of something being moved. Something heavy. She could also hear voices, albeit unfamiliar ones. And it sounded like they were saying something to each other. In addition, a faint trace of light could be seen a ways away. “Yeah, I think I see the problem,” A gruff sounding voice called, echoing across the narrow confines of the structure. “Looks like somepony flushed a diaper, probably a dirty one from the looks of it.” “Hey, is that a doll I see?” Another voice spoke up. “Who would flush a doll down the toilet? Don’t ponies know toilets are expensive to fix? Were they trying to clog up the entire sewer system or something?” Flurry didn’t know who those voices belonged to, but they sounded friendly enough. With her soggy, saggy diaper no longer weighing her down, she was free to flap her wings and approach the location where the voices were coming from. She was saved! These ponies would surely take her back to her parents. Two crystal ponies blinked in surprise as they were suddenly and unexpectedly greeted by the foul smelling presence of the heir to the crystal throne. “Hey, wait a minute,” A green coated crystal pony with ruby red eyes spoke up. “Flurry Heart? What were you doing down there? Don’t you know the sewers are not a playground?!” Flurry whimpered as she apologized. “Me sorry. Me go down the toilet by accident. Me no mean to get flushed.” A dark purple coated crystal pony with amber yellow eyes shook his head from side to side. “Kid, everypony knows it’s impossible for ponies to get flushed down the toilet. I don’t know what you flushed into the sewers or why you went into them, but it’s a good thing we found you when you did. I just hope you didn’t break anything.” The green coated crystal pony then sniffed and gagged. “Ugh! We should probably give you a bath first! Oh dear Celestia, and I thought my nephew’s dirty diapers were bad! They’re nothing compared to this!” Flurry’s face flushed fiercely. Still, at least she was relieved to be out of… whatever that place had been. Perhaps she hadn’t imagined her daddy going down the drain after all. If so, she owed him an apology for sending him to such a foul smelling place as this.
Ending Number Two: Toilet Trouble, Times TwoAuthor's Note And thus we have the other ending. As of yet, there's no story for Cadence going down the drain. Ending Number Two: Toilet Trouble, Times Two Shining Armor and Princess Cadence were abruptly roused from their peaceful slumber when they both swore they heard the faint sound of crying coming from the other end of the hallway from their bedroom. It sounded like their daughter had been calling out for help. But why? Yawning and shaking themselves awake to the best of their ability, the crystal couple got out of bed and got to their hooves. They quickly realized where the scream had come from. “Sounds like Flurry Heart’s having trouble in the bathroom again,” Princess Cadence commented with a sigh. “She probably waited too long before trying to go potty and had another accident.” Shining Armor could only shake his head from side to side. “She was doing so well too. I guess they can’t all be like Twily, she was a potty training pro: Never had a single wet or messy diaper once she started using her potty chair.” The princess of love simply sighed anew. “We’d better go comfort her, and clean up whatever mess she’s made. At this rate, she’s not going to be ready for her big filly pants anytime soon. I was so sure she was ready. Maybe we should've held off.” "Well, that's a discussion for later, dear," Shining replied. "For now, let's get whatever mess awaits us cleaned up." So the crystal couple then trotted out of their bedroom, and headed down the long and winding hallway to the bathroom where they had set up their daughter’s potty chair. They expected to find the bathroom light on, and be greeted by either the site of a puddle or the smell of a dirty diaper that needed to be changed. But to the surprise of both husband and wife, they found that the bathroom was completely dark by the time they got there. The only source of illumination was the faint rays of Luna’s moon as they peeked in through a window. That struck them as most odd. If Flurry had been in the bathroom, why weren’t the lights on? The oddities continued as the two trotted into the bathroom, Cadence using her magic to turn on the lights to help with the inspection. There wasn’t a pony in sight besides them. Flurry Heart was nowhere to be seen. “Flurry?” Cadence called out. “Flurry Heart, where are you?” Shining sniffed the air, hoping to smell his daughter if she was trying to hide from her shame. Strangely enough, though, he couldn’t detect any odors. No smelly smells that smelled smelly. And by chance, his wandering eyes fell upon his daughter’s training potty. Picking up with his magic, he discovered that it was full. “Flurry’s definitely been in here. But she went pee pee in her potty like a big filly.” He declared. The princess of love was now most confused. “So, if she didn’t have any trouble making it to her potty, why would she be crying and screaming? And how come she’s not here now?” Her eyes looked all around the bathroom. “Where could she be? It doesn't make sense.” Setting the training potty back down, Shining joined his wife in continuing to inspect every nook and crany of the bathroom. By chance, his gaze happened to cross the toilet, and some objects lying next to: A bar of soap and a clearly used piece of toilet paper that had an obvious wet spot right in the middle. Suddenly, a nagging thought came into the stallion’s mind. “Could it really be?” He wondered aloud. “Could what?” Princess Cadence questioned, before she noticed her husband looking at the toilet. She sighed and rolled her eyes when she saw the toilet lid and seat were up and not down. “Shining, I can’t believe you left the seat up again! One of these days, I’m going to fall in if you keep doing this.” But the stallion was preoccupied with other thoughts as he said. “Actually, I’m beginning to think I had a very good reason for leaving it up this time. It wasn’t because I forgot.” The princess of love blinked in confusion. “Whatever are you talking about, dear? Do you know something I don’t?” Shining Armor firmly nodded. “I think I do,” Sighing and taking a deep breath he explained. “I know where Flurry Heart is. You’re not gonna believe this, but I think she got flushed down the toilet.” Cadence had to resist the urge to throw back her head and laugh. “Oh Shining, don’t be ridiculous. You and I both know it’s impossible for anypony to be flushed down the toilet. Don’t you remember us telling Twilight when she was in potty training that you can’t go down the drain?” Shining could only reply. “I thought it was all just a dream, but now I’m starting to think it wasn’t. Somehow, Flurry must’ve enchanted this toilet somehow, making it capable of flushing even a full grown pony. It happened to me once, Flurry flushed me by accident. And now, it looks like the same thing happened to her, somehow.” The princess of love’s face contorted into a frown. “Shining, will you please stop it with the nonsense? This is serious! You don’t honestly think our daughter got flushed, do you? It’s just not possible. Besides, there’s nothing to indicate that anypony could’ve gone down the drain.” But Shining gestured a hoof. “I don’t know about that, Cadence. Look!” When his wife did so, he joined her in peering down at the toilet bowl. By now, it was possible to see that the water in it was overflowing, spilling out of the bowl and onto the floor. That meant only one thing! “Great, so the toilet is clogged up,” Cadence sighed. “Good thing we keep the plunger close by.” And she used her magic to pick up the plunger, placing its rubber end in the toilet bowl. “Hold on, Flurry Heart!” Shining Armor called to the drain! “Mommy and Daddy will get you out!” Princess Cadence, for her part, just concentrated on plunging the toilet in the hopes of removing whatever obstruction was causing the clog. Working hard, the princess of love moved the plunger up and down several times. But despite her best efforts, she couldn’t unclog whatever was clogging up the toilet. All she succeeded in doing was splashing more water out of the bowl. “Whatever’s causing this clog, it sure is stubborn!” She declared with a frown. “I think we might have to call a plumber.” “Just keep trying, Cadence!” Shining Armor urged his wife. “If worse comes to worse, we’ll have to check the sewers. If Flurry isn’t stuck in this toilet, that’s where she’ll be for sure.” The frown on Cadence’s face grew deeper, to the point where it almost looked like it could fall off her face. While plunging yet again, she all but shouted! “Flurry Heart Sparkle, you come out of wherever it is you’re hiding right now! This isn’t funny anymore! You’re making your daddy believe you got flushed down the toilet, so come out of wherever it is you are so he can stop talking nonsense! It's okay if you clogged the toilet by accident, I promise I won't be mad with you.” Just seconds later, the two ponies thought they heard a garbled cry. It sounded like it was coming directly from the drain. And then, suddenly, Princess Cadence felt the rubber end of the plunger make contact with something! She began to pull hard, trying to lift the plunger out of the toilet! But whatever was attached to the plunger was fighting her, it seemed to be very heavy and was weighing the princess of love down. Shining Armor rushed over and lit up his horn, allowing his magic to surround the plunger as well. “We’ll do it on three!” He told his wife. “Ready?” When he received a confirming nod he shouted. “Okay! One, two, three!” And he and the princess yanked as hard as they could on the plunger with their hooves and their magic! The obstruction came free with a loud pop! The water in the toilet bowl finally receded, retreating back down the drain now that the clog had been removed. And what, or rather who should be clinging to the rubber end of the plunger as it was pulled into the air, but a very soggy (and very frightened) Flurry Heart? Her diaper had swelled up with toilet water, sagging to the point where it was a miracle it hadn’t fallen off. Cadence’s eyes went wide in disbelief! Shining had been right all along, their daughter had indeed gotten flushed, somehow. “Flurry Heart?!” She gasped! “How did you… I mean, there’s no way you could’ve…” Shining wanted to giggle and grin at his wife, giving her an “I told you so” kind of look. But he didn’t, right now there was a much more pressing matter he needed to take care of. “Flurry Heart, are you alright?” He asked his daughter as he pulled her free from the plunger with his magic, and carefully setting her upon the floor. Flurry Heart nodded quite slowly, relieved to have been rescued. “Me sorry, Mommy and Daddy. Me get flushed by accident after me go potty.” She apologized. “Flurry, why didn’t you come and get us?” Shining questioned his daughter. “Now look at the mess you’ve caused.” He gestured a hoof to the water logged floor tiles that were a direct result of the toilet overflowing, which in turn had been caused by Flurry clogging it up by accidentally flushing herself. “Me wanted to be big filly.” Flurry confessed. Cadence, finally having recovered from the shock of it all, sighed. She then used her magic to summon towels to dry off her waterlogged daughter, all the while telling her. “Flurry, the real big filly thing to do in your case would’ve been to come get your father or, I, or even one of the castle staff. That’s what they’re for. It’s great that you wanted to try to go potty all by yourself, but look what happened.” The alicorn foal whimpered. “Me know. Me not gonna do it again. Me promise.” Shining Armor then replied. “Well, at least you’re okay. Thank Celestia you didn’t end up in the sewers like I did.” “Uh-huh, and me sorry for flushing you, Daddy,” Flurry Heart apologized. “Me sorry me make toilet do what it not supposed to do.” “Well, I guess we’ll have to get Sunburst or Mistmane to take a look at the toilet,” Princess Cadence reluctantly commented. “Hopefully, they can undo whatever it is that’s made this toilet’s flush so strong. In the meantime, Flurry, please don’t ever try to use or flush the toilet without a grown-up around to help you. We can’t risk another scare like this.”
