Welcome to Gender Swapped Equestriaby TwoBestBroniezChaptersPrologueRude AwakeningHospital ReleaseGreetingsRecoveryPrologueMy name is Zander. I am a brony. I take the term not to lightly even though I don't talk about it in front of my friends. I am not to big on spreading it too everyone because of the fear of getting punched or lynched, but that's just me I live a normal life in a town called Hacienda Heights. I didn't expect much of my life to change, but it did drastically. I think it as an okay change not to bad not to good, but again that's just me. Well enough about me lets get into how my life exploded. It was like every other day on Earth for me, school was no different. I would wait for the week to drag along until it reached the weekend where I could be lazy all I wanted. It seemed like a simple routine. Walk to school, get through the classes of the day, and walk home, but to me it just got duller and duller at least for this certain junior in high school. No matter how dull my week went I would always love saturday mornings because of a certain show called My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic. I am a fan of the show even though most people think of it as a show portrayed for little girls, it was my favorite animated series by far, but I keep it a under wraps as best as possible. Only my family and friends online that are also bronies are the only people that knows my liking of the show. I never wore any of the MLP shirts I got for my birthday and christmas to school. I didn't want my friends to know because I knew they would not be as accepting of it as my parents were. Even my Dad is as always still shaky on the subject. One certain weekend though after the new episode had just aired, instead of doing the usual surfing the web for new brony songs or animations. I decided to take a walk around my neighborhood because I thought even though I lived here since I was in really young I haven't seen that much of the neighborhood. Only what I see when I walk to and from school is the only time I got a good look around and get a feel for the place, but it was always the same route so what I have taken in for this neighborhood wasn't that much. So I went to go grab my phone, wallet, and jacket. I called out to my mother as I was about to leave the house. "Going out for a walk mum." I said to my mother. "Okay be back before lunch." My mother responded. When I start walking I go in a completely new direction from my route to school and end up walking down what seems like an endless street. I seemed to have been walking into the richer district of the community, because I started seeing huge houses, some were even 3 stories high.Man, these rich people got it made for themselves. My house was nice and all, but compared to the houses I was walking by, it just made my house feel a little small and crappy. These houses were a sight to behold. It was amazing to see all the houses with the gated entrances, and expensive cars like limos, hummers, hummer limos. plus they got pools.My god, they even have pools. Lucky rich people I was so amazed by the vast wonders of the houses and cars that I accidentally had stepped onto a street without realizing, but coming back into realization just before I was hit by a hummer. The only words I was able muster before being hit was "Oh SHI-." The blunt force trauma made me blackout almost instantly. The last thing I had remembered before blacking out was that I didn't feel a thud and skid across the pavement like I thought I would have. Instead I was met with a sense of weightlessness, then crashing into a wall and hitting the floor with a thud. Man that car hit me pretty damn hard. I had thought to myself before blacking out. When I was finally trying to wake up from my blackout, almost turned into coma, I tried to open my eyes. All I could do was feel the wooden floor beneath me. Wait a second, wooden floor when did I fall onto any wood. I had thought to myself. I had a hard time with opening my eyes, and when I got a successful try, I was met with blurred vision. my vision was still blacking in and out. I was able to hear muffled voices in the background, but couldn't configure what they were trying to say. I had gathered enough strength to say a few words to the muffled voices around me. I said. "Help me please." I was no match in the fight against my concussion anymore and blacked out once more. Rude AwakeningI was awoken to blurry vision and a "beeping" noise coming from the right. Well this is just great. I landed in the hospital. I try to fix my blurry vision by rubbing my eyes. Also met with another trial and error because my right arm was in serious pain. So I improvised by using my left arm. Why didn't I use my left arm first, I am left handed. I fixed my vision not really that well though. Just enough to see my surroundings also to see a stallion to my right checking off his clipboard. Wait! Back it up a stallion, how in hell is there a stallion in my room. The stallion realizes that I woke up and says to me. "Well well well guess who's awake Mr. Sleepyhead." "Where in hell am I? Also how are you talking?" I respond with a stupid look on my face. "So the purple stallion and baby dragon were right you can talk." The stallion responded looking at me like I was a monster or something. "Of course I am able to speak I am a human after all. The one thing I don't get is why you are able to talk." I respond with my now wide awake brain. "So you are what a human is weird. Also of course I can talk I am an Equestrian." The stallion said with a straight face. "Let me introduce myself I am Dr. Redheart." "Wait did you just say you were Equestrian?" Questioning what I already heard. "Yes, I am an Equestrian." The doctor said repeating his statement. Well only one place has Equestrians in it and that is the land of My Little Pony. So my best guess is that I am dead. Or still in a coma. So I have one of two options. Freak out or Stay calm. I decided to stay calm because freaking out in my state would be very uncomfortable, because my right arm and leg hurt like hell. "Well Doc tell me the truth am I dead and this is my heaven? Or dare I say it hell?" I said grabbing him by his lab coat with my left arm. "Well telling that you are awake you are most certainly not dead. Also this is not heaven or hell you are in Equestria." The Doctor said rolling his tongue on the last syllable. When the Doctor ended his sentence a purple unicorn stallion walked through the door and said to the doctor. "Hello Dr. Redheart how is the patient today. Has he finally woken up after about a month?" "Dusk the last million times you asked was no. This time it is actually yes." The Doctor said in a joking tone. "Really? let me see it." The pony referred to as Dusk said. "I am not an it. I am a male." I said insulted by the comment. You know close up that stallion looks exactly like Twilight if she was male. Now that I think about it if Twilight was male she would look exactly like this unicorn. "Hello my name is Dusk Shine human-" Dusk Shine said but was interrupted by me. "I have a name, it is Zander." I said a little rudely. "Hello "Zander" my name is Dusk Shine, protege of Lord Solaris, Element of Magic from the Elements of Harmony." Dusk said with a little force in his voice. Wow back it up again this guy can't be the element of magic out of the Elements of Harmony that is Twilight, not this wanna be. "Wait a second Element of Magic from Elements of Harmony. Only Twilight Sparkle holds that title." I said realizing what I just said would sound weird coming from a human that is supposedly not suppose to know anything about this world. "Who is this Twilight Sparkle you speak of? Because I am the only Element of Magic." He said with a look of a million questions on his face. "You know what forget what I said. Back to the doctor I want to hear my condition." Look of worry on my face. "Well first off if you had any wings or a horn then they are now gone." The Doctor said wondering if I did have wings and/or horn. "No I don't Doctor tell me the damages I have endured." I said a little frustrated with him not giving me a injury report. "Okay well your right foreleg and right hindleg were broken." The Doctor said. "You have a few cracked ribs and your appendix exploded." "Holy crap all that." I said disgruntled. "Also they aren't forelegs and hindlegs, it's just arms and legs." The doctor floated a pen to a clipboard he was holding and scribbles down what I had told him. "Yes, but you have been in a coma for a month so you have had a lot of time to heal and recover, but you still need a week or so to be able to walk properly." The Doctor said staring at my now nearly dislocated jaw. "A month?" I said in disbelief "Yes thirty-one days to be exact." The doctor said still staring at me with a straight face. "Well I have been visiting every other day waiting for you to wake up and yea this seems to be about my fifteenth visit." Dusk Shine said agreeing to the Doctor's statement. "Wait why would you visit me? We have not even met before you found me and took me the hospital." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Well the reason why I visited is because Lord Solaris told me to tell him when your awake, and you crashed through my library when you got here through the portal I made linking two random worlds together, and that second world just happened to be yours." Dusk Shine said with ease in his tone. The second time my jaw had almost dislocated of my head that day was from that comment. Also to add to that I blacked out once again only to be met with to people trying to shake me out of this stress induced blackout. Lets hope that it doesn't last another month. Hospital ReleaseLuckily, I only was out for about an hour. I happened to have awoken when another stallion walked into the room. One was a pink stallion that had a, what I described as, bubbly mane and tail. Also the color of his coat was a lighter shade of pink then his mane and tail. Three balloons were adorning his flank two yellow and one blue. Is everyone in this whole goddamn world gender swapped or is this the real Equestria. I had thought to myself while the three stallions stared at me. "Good you're awake again." Doctor Redheart said when he saw my eyes open. "I was worrying that we lost you again." "God forbid that happens again right." I responded with a roll of my eyes. "And who is this 'God' you speak of?" Dusk Shine asked in a questionable manner. Oh that's right you don't know who God is because this is Equestria not earth. "Celestia to you is God to me." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Who is Celestia." Dusk Shine said with a puzzled look on his face. Oh also I forgot to mention to myself I am in gender swapped Equestria. "I meant Lord Solaris sorry." I said scratching the back of my head "Ooooh." every stallion in the room said. The pink stallion ran to the bed next to me and said, "Hi my names Bubble Berry. Who are you?" "Hello Bubble Berry-." I said before being cut off. "You can call me Berry all my friends do." He said with a smile on his face. "Hello Berry my name is Zander." I said. Saying that made him almost explode with excitement. Pinkie wasn't my favorite in the real show, not a biased opinion, but she always brought a smile to my face. Also seeing her as a stallion now made me stifle a laugh. :"So does that mean we are friends?" Bubble Berry said clearly with a question in mind "Yes it does Berry." I said. This made him do a hoof pump in the air and said 'yes' while doing it. "Well, when are you going to get out of the hospital?" Berry said with a sad look on his face. "I haven't thrown you your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party yet." "First, Berry I can't for another-" I said not knowing how long before I could do that. "Hey doc how long before I can get out of the hospital?" "Well since your awake right now. I would say you could leave right now if you really wanted." The doctor said responding to my question. "Well I take back what I said Berry. I guess we can have that party...later." I said with a serious face looking at Berry. "Why later and not now?" He said again with a sadder face then before. That face is going to get me a new heart. I am already in serious chest pain. Stop looking at it, it is killing me. "Because Berry I am just getting out of the hospital, and not up for partying with my leg and arm still in casts." I said looking away from Berry's sad face worrying of a heart attack. "Fine, but we will have party sometime this week for you." Berry said "Deal." I said shaking his hoof sealing the promise in a hoof/handshake. "Okay doctor sign my release papers and please get me something to help me walk properly." I said. When I said that his horn started to glow and he floated a walking stick over to me. "Thank you." "Okay you are good to go." The doctor said. "Where is my stuff did anything make it out after my accident." I said with a worried look. "Don't worry most of your stuff made it." The doctor said. "What? Well can you tell me what didn't make it." I said even more worried now. "Well we didn't know how to get your shirt off. So we kinda had to cut it off to check for injuries." The doctor said pointing over to my shirt that was torn to shreds. "But everything else I think is fine." "What do you mean by you think everything else is fine?" I said squinting my eye at him. "Well if this machine you were carrying in your pocket looks like this, then yes everything is fine." The doctor said holding my phone in his magical aurora. Thankfully it wasn't damaged whatsoever, or at least it looked like it didn't. I then got my walking stick and went over to my phone and checked it to see if was broken. It was good, but it had a few new scratches on it. I then went over to my jacket and wallet and checked them both out. They both seemed perfectly okay and so were my pants. Thank god they didn't take off my boxers. I am not saying that I am not proud of it, but they would thought of it as some kind of monster and try to cut it off or something. "Well thank you for protecting my stuff." I said. "No problem at all." The doctor said back to me. "Well now that I am able to leave the hospital where will I be staying." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Well you will probably stay with Butterscotch. He will help you get back on both your hooves." Dusk Shine said walking past me. "Lets get over there now it's getting kind of late right now." "Okay then lets get going, you coming along Berry." I said looking at the seemingly quite stallion. "I would like to very much, but I have a party to plan." Bubble Berry said running out the door. "Well okay then lead the way Dusk Shine we don't have much time. It seems to be getting dark already." I said holding my hand out for him to lead the way. "Okay then I guess just follow me then." Dusk said. "That is what I intended to do." I said limping behind Dusk Shine as he lead to Butterscotch's house. GreetingsDusk Shine and I were about to leave the hospital, then I realized I forgot to get dressed. So I told him to hold a minute while I went to the bathroom. I thought I went to the bathroom though, because when I walked inside all I saw was a gaping hole in the floor. Well that explains how they use restrooms in Equestria. So I quickly got dressed, because it smelled like crap in the bathroom. Literally! We started back out the hospital and were on the streets of Ponyville. While we were walking through Ponyville I was getting looks from everypony. I really expected them to stare I am a freaking human! The only thing that I didn't expect is surprised looks from stallions. They were only staring out of curiosity and amazement. The stares were making me feel very uncomfortable though. I hated being the center of attention it always makes me nervous. It felt like it was taking forever to walk across town, in my case it was limping across town. When we got to what seemed like the main square, I got really hungry. "Hey Dusk can we get some food, while were here, I'm starving." "Yeah we can get food from my friend Applejack over there." Dusk stated while pointing a hoof over to where Applejack's stand was. I didn't expect that Applejack would have the same name in the gender swap. Hey maybe she is still a mare in this world. Once I got closer to the stall where Applejack was I noticed that he was indeed male. The way that I told that he was a male was by the facial structure. It was different from her original one in the show. Also the mane and tail being shorter was another good hint. "Hey Applejack I was wondering if my friend, and I could get some apples." Dusk said "Hey Dusk, no problem, what is that?" Applejack questioning to Dusk pointing to me. "First of all I'm not 'that', or 'it' I'm a he." I started. "I'm a human, and I have a name it's Zander." "Wait you are what a human is? I never expected them to be really... tall." Applejack responded. Even though I was roughly five foot six inches tall, I was still a giant compared to the ponies. They were only what three feet tall? I was twice their height, but I was considered short in my high school. "Can we get some apples please I'm starving?" I pleaded to him. "Yeah here ya go. Free of charge since your Dusk's friend." Applejack gave me two apples and I dug right in, ripping the first one to shreds. Both Dusk and Applejack looked at me in disgust. I look at both of them with quizzical expression. "What?" That was all I could muster while tearing through the second apple. "I told you that I was hungry, and when I say I'm hungry I mean it." They just shook their head in agreement like it was no pony's business. It was kinda funny to see that. "Well we gotta get to Butterscotch's house. I think he is the one that can get our friend here to walk normally again." Dusk claimed, but I think I could get myself to walk normally again. I don't need gender swapped Fluttershy for help. "Okay see ya Dusk, and it was nice meet'in ya Zander." Applejack declared holding a hoof out. "You too Applejack." I responded shaking his hoof. ______________________________________________________________________ Dusk and I were once again walking through Ponyville. We were walking past what looked like the Carousel Boutique, when we heard a male voice screaming. The male voice sounded like it was coming out of the sky, then the male voice screamed. "Move unless you want to get hit." I was lucky enough to react quick enough, and jumped out of the way landing on my good side. Dusk Shine wasn't as lucky though. He got hit straight through the door of the Carousel Boutique by a blur of rainbow. I got up and went over to the door that was torn through only seconds ago. I checked inside to see if Dusk and the other stallion was okay. "Hey you guys okay." I hollered into the building. "Yea." Dusk responded. "I am also good." The mystery stallion also responded. "Oh, hey Dusk sorry for running into you like that." Then he looked over to me "Hey, who and what are you?" The rainbow stallion questioned. "My name is Zander, and I am a human." I responded to the stallion. "Holy shit your a human?" He asked with more a little more vigor. "Yes I just told you that." I answered. "And who are you?" Retorting the question back to him. "My name is Rainbow Blitz." Rainbow Blitz preached. Then everyone in the room hears a voice from upstairs, also male, talking while coming down stairs. "What in Solaris's name is going on down here." The voice did not seem to be happy at all. "Oh why it's you Dusk and Blitz. It's so nice to see that you came here to break down my door?" You could hear the sarcasm dripping off his tongue. "It also seems you brought a creature with you into my store. Please get it out of here before it destroys my outfits." "Okay the last time I am explaining today. I am not a creature, I am a human." I almost shouted out to everyone in the room. "Oh so you can talk, well then I am sorry for my poor manners." He exclaimed to me. "My name is Elusive. What is your name?" "Hello my name is Zander, and I am no creature I am a human." I recited for what seemed like the fifth time that day. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance... Zander." Elusive began. "Who's this guy anyway Dusk, I thought humans were a myth?" Blitz wondered. "I have no idea. I am pretty sure Lord Solaris is the only one with a clue to who this guy is." Dusk inquired. "Oh great, I can say now that I am so prestigious that a god knows me." I answered. "So are we going to Butterscotch's house, or not Dusk it's already past midday." I reminded Dusk. "Oh right." Dusk remembered. "Wait outside I gotta talk to both Blitz and Elusive for a minute." Dusk continued. "Alright." I responded. Then I limped over to the door only to stay right at the corner around it. This was only to try and hear what they were saying. All I could make out were a few words like 'watch out' and 'stay clear'. Well great, that just sucks how they don't trust me. I thought to myself for way to long, and realized that Dusk Shine was in front of me trying to get my attention. "You ready Zander?" Dusk asked. "Yeah, lets get moving before it gets dark." I added before we started on the streets for the third time today. __________________________________________________________________ We were finally at the edge of the Everfree Forest, and just beyond that we see Butterscotch's cottage. We then cross the bridge that goes over the stream that leads from the Everfree. Both Dusk and I walk up to the door and Dusk knocks on the door lightly. We hear movement inside the house as we wait for the door to open. It opens and we see a light yellow pegasus stallion standing at the door. "Oh hey Dusk I wasn't expecting you today, unless I forgot... I'm sorry if I did." He apologized in a soft voice. "No need for an apology Butterscotch I came here for a reason." Dusk stopped and looked over to me. "I came here because of him." I waved nonchalantly at both of them. "Who is he?" He questioned looking over to Dusk. "Wait you know that I am a male?" I praised finally having somepony know who and what I am. "Of course, I've read up humans so if I was to encounter one I would know how to take care of him/her." He confessed. "Wait, but humans are supposed to be pure myth, if he never came along then you wouldn't need those skills." Dusk commented. "It's better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it." Butterscotch cited. "That works perfectly for this case." I confirmed. "My name is Zander, nice to meet you."I finished holding out my hand. Butterscotch stepped back and tried to hide in his short mane. Oh right male version of Fluttershy here. That means I can't be up front with him because he is also shy. So I put my hand down and told him. "It's okay I'm not going to hurt you Butterscotch... I promise." I promised in the softest voice I could muster. That seemed like a relatively good answer for the stallion and he stopped hiding behind his mane. "Okay I trust you." He accepted my statement. "Okay, Zander here has suffered one heck of an accident." Dusk started. "We don't know what happened, but it seemed like something hit him pretty hard." Dusk wondered what hit me to put me in such a condition. I knew what happened, but knew I should tell anypony. Because who here knows what a car is? "I was wondering if you could finish healing him properly by letting him stay here a couple days? We can't have him be in bad shape when he meets Lord Solaris." Dusk finished. "Well if he doesn't mind the other animals, then yeah he can stay here." Butterscotch answered. "Wait, what kind of animals are we talking here?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "Squirrels, bunnies, birds, all sorts of different critters." Butterscotch concluded. "Okay that won't be too bad... I guess." I agreed. "Well see you later Dusk." I said. "Don't worry I will be back in a week to take you to see Lord Solaris." Dusk reminded me. "I hope to see you before that. I ain't going to be cooped up in this house for a week." I responded "I am not saying I hate this place I just don't want to stay inside all week." Looking at Butterscotch. Dusk Shine then walked away and Butterscotch and I walked into his house. RecoveryButterscotch, and I went into his house. When we were inside his house I looked around. I saw a variety of things from birdhouses to ant farms. Wow he really takes care of every type of animal. I was stunned by the sights of all the different animals. I hope their aren't any spiders here because they freak me out. Snakes are fine. Wasps and bees I'm not allergic to them, but no God damn spider is going to get close to me without tasting my shoe "So where will I be sleeping?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "On the couch, only if you want you don't have to. You could take my bed if you want." He answered in a low voice. "No way, your bed is your bed not mine. The couch will be just fine." I said. I then went over to the couch, and I put down my wallet and phone. "I am still kinda hungry from walking around all day got anything to eat?" I asked. "Yeah I got some flowers and hay in the kitchen." Butterscotch said pointing to the kitchen. "Sorry, I meant edible food for humans." I added. "Oh... well I got some vegetables in the kitchen to." He answered. "Okay that will have to do." Well I guess I can't have any type of meat dang. I got my walking stick and went into the kitchen. I searched everywhere for some veggies. Then I picked up a carrot and it is immediately swatted out of my hand by a bunny. Oh that is funny it's female Angel. Butterscotch walked in just in time to see her pet swat a carrot out of my hand. "Lilitha be nice to our guest, he is only hungry." Butterscotch noted. The bunny then got off the counter in front of me and walked out of the room in what looked like fury. "Sorry about Lilitha, she can be really mean sometimes." Butterscotch apologized. "You don't need to apologize, it isn't your fault that your bunny did what she did." I commented. "Okay sorry." He apologized again. "You don't need to apologize for apologizing." I advised. "Oh... sorry." Butterscotch quietly said. Right their I face palmed so hard I got a red mark on my forehead, and you could hear the smacking noise around the hole house. That hurt badly shouldn't have done that. I then picked up the carrot and a couple apples I found in the kitchen. "Their is no need for apologizing really, please you don't it's not needed." I elaborated. If she apologizes for this then I will probably put a permanent mark on my head. I headed back to the living room and ate the carrot and apples like a rabid animal. I went over to the window and looked out. It was already sunset so I decided to turn in a little early. ________________________________________________________________ The next day wasn't that eventful I woke up to Butterscotch burning hay, or what he called breakfast. So I decided to get my own breakfast. More apples yeah. I thought to myself sarcastically. After breakfast he made me stretch every muscle in my body, and told me to walk across the room without my walking stick. I tried the first time, but failed about halfway across the room. The second time was a little bit better like three quarters of the way there, but that was as far as I could get with this bum leg, even after stretches. About an hour or two in I finally got across the room, but I fell right when I got there. It still counts that I made it across the room. My leg still can't put my body's weight on it forever, but it can last a good few minutes. ____________________________________________________________________ The second day was better I could get across the room with more ease, but still fall after 20 minutes without my walking stick. I decided to try and run across the room. Big mistake running on a bum leg, worst idea ever. It put me back a couple hours of work for running, but nothing too serious. Then the next few days just came very slowly for working up my strength. It wasn't difficult just time consuming, with the sore legs at the end of the day. I finally found the strength to run, but only for a few minutes. My leg only grows weak, not just gives out. Since I was strong enough I decided to talk a walk in ponyville. Besides Butterscotch need to go grocery shopping anyways, with me knowing Fluttershy's shyness I know I had to go with Butterscotch on this trip. ____________________________________________________________________ I was lucky that I went on this trip with Butterscotch. Because there was this one guy crazy enough to raise the price for a cherry to twenty bits can you believe that. It also hit me like deja vu, I just couldn't remember why. Then a rainbow stallion appears to my right while I am walking with Butterscotch. "Hey Butterscotch and Zander." Blitz said "Well it looks like someones walking again. What you guys doing here?" Blitz questioned. Butterscotch looked over to Rainbow Blitz and said. "Zander here is helping me get groceries." I looked over to Blitz and said. "How else was I suppose to repay him for taking care of me. Also if I didn't help he would probably still be at the top of the list." I then ruffled his hair with my hand a little roughly. Butterscotch gave me a little angry stare and fear ran up my spine. He could have killed me with that stare. "I am joking, sorry if you took it the wrong way." I apologized. "Its okay." Butterscotch accepted my apology. Note to self don't mess with Butterscotch, or he will burn right through your skull with his stare. "So what are you doing hear Blitzy." "I hate that nickname." Blitz said. "To answer your question I had the day off from weather patrol, because schedule calls for no clouds in the sky. I also just decided to catch up with you guys because I just woke up from my nap, and I have nothing to do also I saw you guys so here I am." The next few hours we were talking Blitz told us a riveting tale of Berry and him. When he was finishing up the story Dusk walked up to us. " Berry always forgets this part when he tells the story. We told the mare oatmeal are you crazy?" I was hit with more deja vu. "Well look who's up and walking again. Butterscotch you really good are good with all types of animals." Dusk said. "What I am not an Animal, if anything you are the animals in my world." I argued. "Well sorry about that." Dusk said " Do you think you are ready to go to the Lord now?" " My legs are still soar a little bit, I will be ready tomorrow." I added. " Okay I will drop by Butterscotch's cottage tomorrow and we will gather everyone up for the trip." Dusk said "Okay we were just heading back anyway. Hey if you see Berry tell him to hold the party off until after my visit to Solaris." "Alright see you guys tomorrow." Dusk said "Bye-bye." Butterscotch and I said. "Wait we are done with are grocery shopping, aren't we?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "Actually we need just one more thing whip cream." Butterscotch answered. "Okay no problem, what is all this stuff for anyways?" I asked. "Well it is for Lilitha's lunch." Butterscotch said. More deja vu hit me if I wasn't careful enough I'd say I was replaying a part of my life or something. "Sometimes I think that you spoil that rabbit with stuff." I criticized. "Sorry." Butterscotch responded. "What have I been teaching you about apologizing." I said "Not to do it so often as I do it." Butterscotch cited. "Correct, now lets get that whip cream for Lilitha." I said. We finish getting the last part of Lilitha's crazy lunch order. So we finally head back to the cottage for what is to come tomorrow for me.
PrologueMy name is Zander. I am a brony. I take the term not to lightly even though I don't talk about it in front of my friends. I am not to big on spreading it too everyone because of the fear of getting punched or lynched, but that's just me I live a normal life in a town called Hacienda Heights. I didn't expect much of my life to change, but it did drastically. I think it as an okay change not to bad not to good, but again that's just me. Well enough about me lets get into how my life exploded. It was like every other day on Earth for me, school was no different. I would wait for the week to drag along until it reached the weekend where I could be lazy all I wanted. It seemed like a simple routine. Walk to school, get through the classes of the day, and walk home, but to me it just got duller and duller at least for this certain junior in high school. No matter how dull my week went I would always love saturday mornings because of a certain show called My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic. I am a fan of the show even though most people think of it as a show portrayed for little girls, it was my favorite animated series by far, but I keep it a under wraps as best as possible. Only my family and friends online that are also bronies are the only people that knows my liking of the show. I never wore any of the MLP shirts I got for my birthday and christmas to school. I didn't want my friends to know because I knew they would not be as accepting of it as my parents were. Even my Dad is as always still shaky on the subject. One certain weekend though after the new episode had just aired, instead of doing the usual surfing the web for new brony songs or animations. I decided to take a walk around my neighborhood because I thought even though I lived here since I was in really young I haven't seen that much of the neighborhood. Only what I see when I walk to and from school is the only time I got a good look around and get a feel for the place, but it was always the same route so what I have taken in for this neighborhood wasn't that much. So I went to go grab my phone, wallet, and jacket. I called out to my mother as I was about to leave the house. "Going out for a walk mum." I said to my mother. "Okay be back before lunch." My mother responded. When I start walking I go in a completely new direction from my route to school and end up walking down what seems like an endless street. I seemed to have been walking into the richer district of the community, because I started seeing huge houses, some were even 3 stories high.Man, these rich people got it made for themselves. My house was nice and all, but compared to the houses I was walking by, it just made my house feel a little small and crappy. These houses were a sight to behold. It was amazing to see all the houses with the gated entrances, and expensive cars like limos, hummers, hummer limos. plus they got pools.My god, they even have pools. Lucky rich people I was so amazed by the vast wonders of the houses and cars that I accidentally had stepped onto a street without realizing, but coming back into realization just before I was hit by a hummer. The only words I was able muster before being hit was "Oh SHI-." The blunt force trauma made me blackout almost instantly. The last thing I had remembered before blacking out was that I didn't feel a thud and skid across the pavement like I thought I would have. Instead I was met with a sense of weightlessness, then crashing into a wall and hitting the floor with a thud. Man that car hit me pretty damn hard. I had thought to myself before blacking out. When I was finally trying to wake up from my blackout, almost turned into coma, I tried to open my eyes. All I could do was feel the wooden floor beneath me. Wait a second, wooden floor when did I fall onto any wood. I had thought to myself. I had a hard time with opening my eyes, and when I got a successful try, I was met with blurred vision. my vision was still blacking in and out. I was able to hear muffled voices in the background, but couldn't configure what they were trying to say. I had gathered enough strength to say a few words to the muffled voices around me. I said. "Help me please." I was no match in the fight against my concussion anymore and blacked out once more.
Rude AwakeningI was awoken to blurry vision and a "beeping" noise coming from the right. Well this is just great. I landed in the hospital. I try to fix my blurry vision by rubbing my eyes. Also met with another trial and error because my right arm was in serious pain. So I improvised by using my left arm. Why didn't I use my left arm first, I am left handed. I fixed my vision not really that well though. Just enough to see my surroundings also to see a stallion to my right checking off his clipboard. Wait! Back it up a stallion, how in hell is there a stallion in my room. The stallion realizes that I woke up and says to me. "Well well well guess who's awake Mr. Sleepyhead." "Where in hell am I? Also how are you talking?" I respond with a stupid look on my face. "So the purple stallion and baby dragon were right you can talk." The stallion responded looking at me like I was a monster or something. "Of course I am able to speak I am a human after all. The one thing I don't get is why you are able to talk." I respond with my now wide awake brain. "So you are what a human is weird. Also of course I can talk I am an Equestrian." The stallion said with a straight face. "Let me introduce myself I am Dr. Redheart." "Wait did you just say you were Equestrian?" Questioning what I already heard. "Yes, I am an Equestrian." The doctor said repeating his statement. Well only one place has Equestrians in it and that is the land of My Little Pony. So my best guess is that I am dead. Or still in a coma. So I have one of two options. Freak out or Stay calm. I decided to stay calm because freaking out in my state would be very uncomfortable, because my right arm and leg hurt like hell. "Well Doc tell me the truth am I dead and this is my heaven? Or dare I say it hell?" I said grabbing him by his lab coat with my left arm. "Well telling that you are awake you are most certainly not dead. Also this is not heaven or hell you are in Equestria." The Doctor said rolling his tongue on the last syllable. When the Doctor ended his sentence a purple unicorn stallion walked through the door and said to the doctor. "Hello Dr. Redheart how is the patient today. Has he finally woken up after about a month?" "Dusk the last million times you asked was no. This time it is actually yes." The Doctor said in a joking tone. "Really? let me see it." The pony referred to as Dusk said. "I am not an it. I am a male." I said insulted by the comment. You know close up that stallion looks exactly like Twilight if she was male. Now that I think about it if Twilight was male she would look exactly like this unicorn. "Hello my name is Dusk Shine human-" Dusk Shine said but was interrupted by me. "I have a name, it is Zander." I said a little rudely. "Hello "Zander" my name is Dusk Shine, protege of Lord Solaris, Element of Magic from the Elements of Harmony." Dusk said with a little force in his voice. Wow back it up again this guy can't be the element of magic out of the Elements of Harmony that is Twilight, not this wanna be. "Wait a second Element of Magic from Elements of Harmony. Only Twilight Sparkle holds that title." I said realizing what I just said would sound weird coming from a human that is supposedly not suppose to know anything about this world. "Who is this Twilight Sparkle you speak of? Because I am the only Element of Magic." He said with a look of a million questions on his face. "You know what forget what I said. Back to the doctor I want to hear my condition." Look of worry on my face. "Well first off if you had any wings or a horn then they are now gone." The Doctor said wondering if I did have wings and/or horn. "No I don't Doctor tell me the damages I have endured." I said a little frustrated with him not giving me a injury report. "Okay well your right foreleg and right hindleg were broken." The Doctor said. "You have a few cracked ribs and your appendix exploded." "Holy crap all that." I said disgruntled. "Also they aren't forelegs and hindlegs, it's just arms and legs." The doctor floated a pen to a clipboard he was holding and scribbles down what I had told him. "Yes, but you have been in a coma for a month so you have had a lot of time to heal and recover, but you still need a week or so to be able to walk properly." The Doctor said staring at my now nearly dislocated jaw. "A month?" I said in disbelief "Yes thirty-one days to be exact." The doctor said still staring at me with a straight face. "Well I have been visiting every other day waiting for you to wake up and yea this seems to be about my fifteenth visit." Dusk Shine said agreeing to the Doctor's statement. "Wait why would you visit me? We have not even met before you found me and took me the hospital." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Well the reason why I visited is because Lord Solaris told me to tell him when your awake, and you crashed through my library when you got here through the portal I made linking two random worlds together, and that second world just happened to be yours." Dusk Shine said with ease in his tone. The second time my jaw had almost dislocated of my head that day was from that comment. Also to add to that I blacked out once again only to be met with to people trying to shake me out of this stress induced blackout. Lets hope that it doesn't last another month.
Hospital ReleaseLuckily, I only was out for about an hour. I happened to have awoken when another stallion walked into the room. One was a pink stallion that had a, what I described as, bubbly mane and tail. Also the color of his coat was a lighter shade of pink then his mane and tail. Three balloons were adorning his flank two yellow and one blue. Is everyone in this whole goddamn world gender swapped or is this the real Equestria. I had thought to myself while the three stallions stared at me. "Good you're awake again." Doctor Redheart said when he saw my eyes open. "I was worrying that we lost you again." "God forbid that happens again right." I responded with a roll of my eyes. "And who is this 'God' you speak of?" Dusk Shine asked in a questionable manner. Oh that's right you don't know who God is because this is Equestria not earth. "Celestia to you is God to me." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Who is Celestia." Dusk Shine said with a puzzled look on his face. Oh also I forgot to mention to myself I am in gender swapped Equestria. "I meant Lord Solaris sorry." I said scratching the back of my head "Ooooh." every stallion in the room said. The pink stallion ran to the bed next to me and said, "Hi my names Bubble Berry. Who are you?" "Hello Bubble Berry-." I said before being cut off. "You can call me Berry all my friends do." He said with a smile on his face. "Hello Berry my name is Zander." I said. Saying that made him almost explode with excitement. Pinkie wasn't my favorite in the real show, not a biased opinion, but she always brought a smile to my face. Also seeing her as a stallion now made me stifle a laugh. :"So does that mean we are friends?" Bubble Berry said clearly with a question in mind "Yes it does Berry." I said. This made him do a hoof pump in the air and said 'yes' while doing it. "Well, when are you going to get out of the hospital?" Berry said with a sad look on his face. "I haven't thrown you your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party yet." "First, Berry I can't for another-" I said not knowing how long before I could do that. "Hey doc how long before I can get out of the hospital?" "Well since your awake right now. I would say you could leave right now if you really wanted." The doctor said responding to my question. "Well I take back what I said Berry. I guess we can have that party...later." I said with a serious face looking at Berry. "Why later and not now?" He said again with a sadder face then before. That face is going to get me a new heart. I am already in serious chest pain. Stop looking at it, it is killing me. "Because Berry I am just getting out of the hospital, and not up for partying with my leg and arm still in casts." I said looking away from Berry's sad face worrying of a heart attack. "Fine, but we will have party sometime this week for you." Berry said "Deal." I said shaking his hoof sealing the promise in a hoof/handshake. "Okay doctor sign my release papers and please get me something to help me walk properly." I said. When I said that his horn started to glow and he floated a walking stick over to me. "Thank you." "Okay you are good to go." The doctor said. "Where is my stuff did anything make it out after my accident." I said with a worried look. "Don't worry most of your stuff made it." The doctor said. "What? Well can you tell me what didn't make it." I said even more worried now. "Well we didn't know how to get your shirt off. So we kinda had to cut it off to check for injuries." The doctor said pointing over to my shirt that was torn to shreds. "But everything else I think is fine." "What do you mean by you think everything else is fine?" I said squinting my eye at him. "Well if this machine you were carrying in your pocket looks like this, then yes everything is fine." The doctor said holding my phone in his magical aurora. Thankfully it wasn't damaged whatsoever, or at least it looked like it didn't. I then got my walking stick and went over to my phone and checked it to see if was broken. It was good, but it had a few new scratches on it. I then went over to my jacket and wallet and checked them both out. They both seemed perfectly okay and so were my pants. Thank god they didn't take off my boxers. I am not saying that I am not proud of it, but they would thought of it as some kind of monster and try to cut it off or something. "Well thank you for protecting my stuff." I said. "No problem at all." The doctor said back to me. "Well now that I am able to leave the hospital where will I be staying." I said looking at Dusk Shine. "Well you will probably stay with Butterscotch. He will help you get back on both your hooves." Dusk Shine said walking past me. "Lets get over there now it's getting kind of late right now." "Okay then lets get going, you coming along Berry." I said looking at the seemingly quite stallion. "I would like to very much, but I have a party to plan." Bubble Berry said running out the door. "Well okay then lead the way Dusk Shine we don't have much time. It seems to be getting dark already." I said holding my hand out for him to lead the way. "Okay then I guess just follow me then." Dusk said. "That is what I intended to do." I said limping behind Dusk Shine as he lead to Butterscotch's house.
GreetingsDusk Shine and I were about to leave the hospital, then I realized I forgot to get dressed. So I told him to hold a minute while I went to the bathroom. I thought I went to the bathroom though, because when I walked inside all I saw was a gaping hole in the floor. Well that explains how they use restrooms in Equestria. So I quickly got dressed, because it smelled like crap in the bathroom. Literally! We started back out the hospital and were on the streets of Ponyville. While we were walking through Ponyville I was getting looks from everypony. I really expected them to stare I am a freaking human! The only thing that I didn't expect is surprised looks from stallions. They were only staring out of curiosity and amazement. The stares were making me feel very uncomfortable though. I hated being the center of attention it always makes me nervous. It felt like it was taking forever to walk across town, in my case it was limping across town. When we got to what seemed like the main square, I got really hungry. "Hey Dusk can we get some food, while were here, I'm starving." "Yeah we can get food from my friend Applejack over there." Dusk stated while pointing a hoof over to where Applejack's stand was. I didn't expect that Applejack would have the same name in the gender swap. Hey maybe she is still a mare in this world. Once I got closer to the stall where Applejack was I noticed that he was indeed male. The way that I told that he was a male was by the facial structure. It was different from her original one in the show. Also the mane and tail being shorter was another good hint. "Hey Applejack I was wondering if my friend, and I could get some apples." Dusk said "Hey Dusk, no problem, what is that?" Applejack questioning to Dusk pointing to me. "First of all I'm not 'that', or 'it' I'm a he." I started. "I'm a human, and I have a name it's Zander." "Wait you are what a human is? I never expected them to be really... tall." Applejack responded. Even though I was roughly five foot six inches tall, I was still a giant compared to the ponies. They were only what three feet tall? I was twice their height, but I was considered short in my high school. "Can we get some apples please I'm starving?" I pleaded to him. "Yeah here ya go. Free of charge since your Dusk's friend." Applejack gave me two apples and I dug right in, ripping the first one to shreds. Both Dusk and Applejack looked at me in disgust. I look at both of them with quizzical expression. "What?" That was all I could muster while tearing through the second apple. "I told you that I was hungry, and when I say I'm hungry I mean it." They just shook their head in agreement like it was no pony's business. It was kinda funny to see that. "Well we gotta get to Butterscotch's house. I think he is the one that can get our friend here to walk normally again." Dusk claimed, but I think I could get myself to walk normally again. I don't need gender swapped Fluttershy for help. "Okay see ya Dusk, and it was nice meet'in ya Zander." Applejack declared holding a hoof out. "You too Applejack." I responded shaking his hoof. ______________________________________________________________________ Dusk and I were once again walking through Ponyville. We were walking past what looked like the Carousel Boutique, when we heard a male voice screaming. The male voice sounded like it was coming out of the sky, then the male voice screamed. "Move unless you want to get hit." I was lucky enough to react quick enough, and jumped out of the way landing on my good side. Dusk Shine wasn't as lucky though. He got hit straight through the door of the Carousel Boutique by a blur of rainbow. I got up and went over to the door that was torn through only seconds ago. I checked inside to see if Dusk and the other stallion was okay. "Hey you guys okay." I hollered into the building. "Yea." Dusk responded. "I am also good." The mystery stallion also responded. "Oh, hey Dusk sorry for running into you like that." Then he looked over to me "Hey, who and what are you?" The rainbow stallion questioned. "My name is Zander, and I am a human." I responded to the stallion. "Holy shit your a human?" He asked with more a little more vigor. "Yes I just told you that." I answered. "And who are you?" Retorting the question back to him. "My name is Rainbow Blitz." Rainbow Blitz preached. Then everyone in the room hears a voice from upstairs, also male, talking while coming down stairs. "What in Solaris's name is going on down here." The voice did not seem to be happy at all. "Oh why it's you Dusk and Blitz. It's so nice to see that you came here to break down my door?" You could hear the sarcasm dripping off his tongue. "It also seems you brought a creature with you into my store. Please get it out of here before it destroys my outfits." "Okay the last time I am explaining today. I am not a creature, I am a human." I almost shouted out to everyone in the room. "Oh so you can talk, well then I am sorry for my poor manners." He exclaimed to me. "My name is Elusive. What is your name?" "Hello my name is Zander, and I am no creature I am a human." I recited for what seemed like the fifth time that day. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance... Zander." Elusive began. "Who's this guy anyway Dusk, I thought humans were a myth?" Blitz wondered. "I have no idea. I am pretty sure Lord Solaris is the only one with a clue to who this guy is." Dusk inquired. "Oh great, I can say now that I am so prestigious that a god knows me." I answered. "So are we going to Butterscotch's house, or not Dusk it's already past midday." I reminded Dusk. "Oh right." Dusk remembered. "Wait outside I gotta talk to both Blitz and Elusive for a minute." Dusk continued. "Alright." I responded. Then I limped over to the door only to stay right at the corner around it. This was only to try and hear what they were saying. All I could make out were a few words like 'watch out' and 'stay clear'. Well great, that just sucks how they don't trust me. I thought to myself for way to long, and realized that Dusk Shine was in front of me trying to get my attention. "You ready Zander?" Dusk asked. "Yeah, lets get moving before it gets dark." I added before we started on the streets for the third time today. __________________________________________________________________ We were finally at the edge of the Everfree Forest, and just beyond that we see Butterscotch's cottage. We then cross the bridge that goes over the stream that leads from the Everfree. Both Dusk and I walk up to the door and Dusk knocks on the door lightly. We hear movement inside the house as we wait for the door to open. It opens and we see a light yellow pegasus stallion standing at the door. "Oh hey Dusk I wasn't expecting you today, unless I forgot... I'm sorry if I did." He apologized in a soft voice. "No need for an apology Butterscotch I came here for a reason." Dusk stopped and looked over to me. "I came here because of him." I waved nonchalantly at both of them. "Who is he?" He questioned looking over to Dusk. "Wait you know that I am a male?" I praised finally having somepony know who and what I am. "Of course, I've read up humans so if I was to encounter one I would know how to take care of him/her." He confessed. "Wait, but humans are supposed to be pure myth, if he never came along then you wouldn't need those skills." Dusk commented. "It's better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it." Butterscotch cited. "That works perfectly for this case." I confirmed. "My name is Zander, nice to meet you."I finished holding out my hand. Butterscotch stepped back and tried to hide in his short mane. Oh right male version of Fluttershy here. That means I can't be up front with him because he is also shy. So I put my hand down and told him. "It's okay I'm not going to hurt you Butterscotch... I promise." I promised in the softest voice I could muster. That seemed like a relatively good answer for the stallion and he stopped hiding behind his mane. "Okay I trust you." He accepted my statement. "Okay, Zander here has suffered one heck of an accident." Dusk started. "We don't know what happened, but it seemed like something hit him pretty hard." Dusk wondered what hit me to put me in such a condition. I knew what happened, but knew I should tell anypony. Because who here knows what a car is? "I was wondering if you could finish healing him properly by letting him stay here a couple days? We can't have him be in bad shape when he meets Lord Solaris." Dusk finished. "Well if he doesn't mind the other animals, then yeah he can stay here." Butterscotch answered. "Wait, what kind of animals are we talking here?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "Squirrels, bunnies, birds, all sorts of different critters." Butterscotch concluded. "Okay that won't be too bad... I guess." I agreed. "Well see you later Dusk." I said. "Don't worry I will be back in a week to take you to see Lord Solaris." Dusk reminded me. "I hope to see you before that. I ain't going to be cooped up in this house for a week." I responded "I am not saying I hate this place I just don't want to stay inside all week." Looking at Butterscotch. Dusk Shine then walked away and Butterscotch and I walked into his house.
RecoveryButterscotch, and I went into his house. When we were inside his house I looked around. I saw a variety of things from birdhouses to ant farms. Wow he really takes care of every type of animal. I was stunned by the sights of all the different animals. I hope their aren't any spiders here because they freak me out. Snakes are fine. Wasps and bees I'm not allergic to them, but no God damn spider is going to get close to me without tasting my shoe "So where will I be sleeping?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "On the couch, only if you want you don't have to. You could take my bed if you want." He answered in a low voice. "No way, your bed is your bed not mine. The couch will be just fine." I said. I then went over to the couch, and I put down my wallet and phone. "I am still kinda hungry from walking around all day got anything to eat?" I asked. "Yeah I got some flowers and hay in the kitchen." Butterscotch said pointing to the kitchen. "Sorry, I meant edible food for humans." I added. "Oh... well I got some vegetables in the kitchen to." He answered. "Okay that will have to do." Well I guess I can't have any type of meat dang. I got my walking stick and went into the kitchen. I searched everywhere for some veggies. Then I picked up a carrot and it is immediately swatted out of my hand by a bunny. Oh that is funny it's female Angel. Butterscotch walked in just in time to see her pet swat a carrot out of my hand. "Lilitha be nice to our guest, he is only hungry." Butterscotch noted. The bunny then got off the counter in front of me and walked out of the room in what looked like fury. "Sorry about Lilitha, she can be really mean sometimes." Butterscotch apologized. "You don't need to apologize, it isn't your fault that your bunny did what she did." I commented. "Okay sorry." He apologized again. "You don't need to apologize for apologizing." I advised. "Oh... sorry." Butterscotch quietly said. Right their I face palmed so hard I got a red mark on my forehead, and you could hear the smacking noise around the hole house. That hurt badly shouldn't have done that. I then picked up the carrot and a couple apples I found in the kitchen. "Their is no need for apologizing really, please you don't it's not needed." I elaborated. If she apologizes for this then I will probably put a permanent mark on my head. I headed back to the living room and ate the carrot and apples like a rabid animal. I went over to the window and looked out. It was already sunset so I decided to turn in a little early. ________________________________________________________________ The next day wasn't that eventful I woke up to Butterscotch burning hay, or what he called breakfast. So I decided to get my own breakfast. More apples yeah. I thought to myself sarcastically. After breakfast he made me stretch every muscle in my body, and told me to walk across the room without my walking stick. I tried the first time, but failed about halfway across the room. The second time was a little bit better like three quarters of the way there, but that was as far as I could get with this bum leg, even after stretches. About an hour or two in I finally got across the room, but I fell right when I got there. It still counts that I made it across the room. My leg still can't put my body's weight on it forever, but it can last a good few minutes. ____________________________________________________________________ The second day was better I could get across the room with more ease, but still fall after 20 minutes without my walking stick. I decided to try and run across the room. Big mistake running on a bum leg, worst idea ever. It put me back a couple hours of work for running, but nothing too serious. Then the next few days just came very slowly for working up my strength. It wasn't difficult just time consuming, with the sore legs at the end of the day. I finally found the strength to run, but only for a few minutes. My leg only grows weak, not just gives out. Since I was strong enough I decided to talk a walk in ponyville. Besides Butterscotch need to go grocery shopping anyways, with me knowing Fluttershy's shyness I know I had to go with Butterscotch on this trip. ____________________________________________________________________ I was lucky that I went on this trip with Butterscotch. Because there was this one guy crazy enough to raise the price for a cherry to twenty bits can you believe that. It also hit me like deja vu, I just couldn't remember why. Then a rainbow stallion appears to my right while I am walking with Butterscotch. "Hey Butterscotch and Zander." Blitz said "Well it looks like someones walking again. What you guys doing here?" Blitz questioned. Butterscotch looked over to Rainbow Blitz and said. "Zander here is helping me get groceries." I looked over to Blitz and said. "How else was I suppose to repay him for taking care of me. Also if I didn't help he would probably still be at the top of the list." I then ruffled his hair with my hand a little roughly. Butterscotch gave me a little angry stare and fear ran up my spine. He could have killed me with that stare. "I am joking, sorry if you took it the wrong way." I apologized. "Its okay." Butterscotch accepted my apology. Note to self don't mess with Butterscotch, or he will burn right through your skull with his stare. "So what are you doing hear Blitzy." "I hate that nickname." Blitz said. "To answer your question I had the day off from weather patrol, because schedule calls for no clouds in the sky. I also just decided to catch up with you guys because I just woke up from my nap, and I have nothing to do also I saw you guys so here I am." The next few hours we were talking Blitz told us a riveting tale of Berry and him. When he was finishing up the story Dusk walked up to us. " Berry always forgets this part when he tells the story. We told the mare oatmeal are you crazy?" I was hit with more deja vu. "Well look who's up and walking again. Butterscotch you really good are good with all types of animals." Dusk said. "What I am not an Animal, if anything you are the animals in my world." I argued. "Well sorry about that." Dusk said " Do you think you are ready to go to the Lord now?" " My legs are still soar a little bit, I will be ready tomorrow." I added. " Okay I will drop by Butterscotch's cottage tomorrow and we will gather everyone up for the trip." Dusk said "Okay we were just heading back anyway. Hey if you see Berry tell him to hold the party off until after my visit to Solaris." "Alright see you guys tomorrow." Dusk said "Bye-bye." Butterscotch and I said. "Wait we are done with are grocery shopping, aren't we?" I questioned looking at Butterscotch. "Actually we need just one more thing whip cream." Butterscotch answered. "Okay no problem, what is all this stuff for anyways?" I asked. "Well it is for Lilitha's lunch." Butterscotch said. More deja vu hit me if I wasn't careful enough I'd say I was replaying a part of my life or something. "Sometimes I think that you spoil that rabbit with stuff." I criticized. "Sorry." Butterscotch responded. "What have I been teaching you about apologizing." I said "Not to do it so often as I do it." Butterscotch cited. "Correct, now lets get that whip cream for Lilitha." I said. We finish getting the last part of Lilitha's crazy lunch order. So we finally head back to the cottage for what is to come tomorrow for me.
