Pinkie Pie and Me

The Impatient Pink Pony

She jumped out and ran out to the dining room. But my cat was there and wanted to devour her due to her smelling like cotton candy. I got worried and scared the cat away. I asked, "Pinkie Pie why did you run off like that?" She replied that she was tired of being on my dresser.

I tried to convince her to return back and i will always treat her well. She refuted the offer and decided to see what was out there in the big old world. I warned her that things other than cats would want to be after her. She scuffed at the statement and declared herself invincible.

I sighed. "For crying out loud Pinkie Pie why did you just tell me so?" She replied, "I thought you would be upset and throw me away" I picked her up in my hands and decided to head outside to see what's up.

Pinkie Pinkamena Diane Pie got really excited about us going outside to see what there is to do in Dayton. She was hoping up and down in my leather coat pocket singing "Cupcakes"; it's her theme song. Just before I could put on my gloves she wonders where we are going. I paused and said that is a good question.

I looked up on the net to see what sights are there to do in Dayton; College campuses, parks, movies. I figured that seeing a movie would be nice. I told her movies. She first frowned and then jumped out on my keyboard to see what was playing.

"I want to see a good horror film if you not going to take me out for some fresh air." I yelped. Yes I know I yelped because I know she would force me to see some scary ass movie just in spite of not coming up with something creative to see. "Kay. Okay. What do you want to see outside?" "A bakery! Like suger cube corner!" "Hmmmmm Okay. Let's see if there is one up the street"

Before I was about to leave some of my other anime figures got pissed because i was always focused on Pinkie and not them. They started to call me a non-laid otaku and other bad names. I told them that tomorrow I would take them with me to see something special. They calmed down and were happy. Pinkie gave them a raspberry and went back into my leather jacket.

WhenI closed the garage door, Pinkie started humming winter wrap up and I wondered why. "Because I saw a snow flake, silly!" I did not noticed until we got down the drive way that small snowflakes were starting to fall. I was glad I had my gloves with me to keep me warm. So on the walk a couple of blocks up the street, Pinkie was wondering what flavors to chow on.

She asked if there was triple Decker fudge with sprinkles, whip cream and other commodities. I said that this will be our first time going up there. She pouted and said that I should really get out more.

We had to wait at a cross walk at the end of the sidewalk. A stranger walked right next to me and asked me a question. "Hey there stranger, what's with the pink hair sticking out of your pocket?" I gasped as I saw Pinkie Pie's tail twitching for some weird reason.

"Um it's for my little sister. I'm Taking this to her birthday party." I pulled out Pinkie Pie and she froze up back in her figurine form. The guy smiled and said "OH SHIT SON! MY LITTLE PONY FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC?"

"Uh yeah. That show for little girls? She has fallen in love with it." "Nice son, nice. Tell her I said happy birthday! Brohoof!" I "brofisted" the stranger and said sure I would. He walked away whistling the theme to the show. When I was down the corner opposite of him, Pinkie Pie returned back alive and I breathed a sigh of relief. "Pinkie that was a close call! Be more carefully okay?" "Okie Dokie Lokie..." She pouted at me again. I am concerned that if anyone else where to find out about this magical like pony figurine, I think that someone would do weird experiments on it and stuff.

When we finally reached the bakery, her eyes beamed with stars of the night sky. For me I did not feel as excited due to it being on a neighborhood corner. But hey beggars can't be choosers right? So I walked in the bakery and they had a decent variety of cakes, cookies and other known confections. The baker noticed Pinkie Pie galloping around the store with her tiny self around the giant sized cakes. I panicked and thought it was all over.

"Oh you have one of those as well? Hah small world Am I right?"

"Uh yeah! Wow if you know about this who do you have as a figurine?"

The baker took me around to the back to show me Mr. and Ms. Cake stirring up the batter with Mr. Cake on the bottom supporting Ms Cake on the top. "Oh my! We have a guest! Mr. Cake would you please get the customer our buyers guide?" "Yes dear!" he replied in a polite and rushed manner. I first was amazed at the two of the little ponies working hard away at the recipes and amazed by how much more was in the guide then in the shop.

"We keep the special orders exclusively in our catalog. We then order our ingredients from a third party, then take the items and make an order." The Baker took his hand on my shoulder as he explained. I was inquired by the selection and decided to place an order.

I decided to order, what else...cupcakes; however they had about several to choose from. First batch were Halloween themed with tombstones, ghosts with white frosting and black chips for the eyes layered on the top with black licorice for the branches and orange/green frosting for the ground on top of the cakes. I thought that this would make Pinkie Pinkamena Diane Pie a bit scarred of the ghostly atmosphere that the cupcakes could give her from that small perspective. The next set looked like happy valentine decorations with red, white, and pink hearts on the same colored hue as Pinkie. Thought this would be cool to let her know she is loved, but it is winter time i am sure she is expecting something around this season. Then it hit me. I saw this last batch with cookie Christmas trees, cotton candy red and green ornaments and Christmas candy canes in each cupcake. I thought that this would be perfect. Christmas cupcakes for not just Pinkie, but some of the other ponies I have in my possession.

"I would like the Christmas theme cupcakes please."

"Mr. Cake, would you please get the gentleman an order form?"

The little yellow pony bowed his head in agreement of the request of Ms. Cake. He had a wooden ladle in his mouth from placing chocolate chips on this white frosted wedding cake set for another order.

"Here ya go. Just put your name and other information and we will send you the bill in the mail."

I chucked at his cute attempts of pushing a pen towards the white piece of paper with his nose. I thanked the Cakes and the chef for the ordeal and told Pinkie it was time to go.

"Awww. Can I just jump in the batter one more time? Pretty please?"

"Sure why the heck not? Is that okay with you mr chef?"

He smiled and said it was more then alright for her to prance in the cake batter to her hearts content. At the sound of approval she squeed. Yes I said it squeed; who know ponies could squee right? There she went and did a backstroke into the batter for the next five minutes. After that, I took a paper towel, wiped her off and we left out the door to see what else for the day we could see together.

"Ahhhh... Nothing like a cake batter bath to get the old mane flowing."

Pinkie Pie was in my pocket combing her hair back into its zany hair style. I look down at my jacket with a big grin knowing that i satisfied her quench for adventure.

"So I guess this means you can calm down right? No more wanting to go outside for a while?"

"Are you loco in the coco? Go back into your dark bed room, with no lights on and your cat clawing at my hair so much? Thanks but no thanks mister! I want more." I had a disappointed and confused look on my face.

"More?"

"MOAR!..."

A group of people who were sitting at a bus stop looked at me funny as I was walking by. Man was I nervous as hell.

"Oh hahahha. Just my cellphone ringtone. I have it set to 'more' as its tone!"

I smiled with teeth in tow. One shakes his head in disbelief and another woman chuckled. As I was a couple of blocks down the street Pinkie poked her head out of my leather jacket pocket.

"Whoops...I want more sunshine, silly."

"Sigh, pinkie pie, you are such a loudmouth for your size. Silly."

Pinkie Pie chuckled at my statement and whistled cupcakes while i was looking at my Samsung trying to figure out if i should call 411 for things to do in Dayton. All of a sudden the phone started to vibrate and on the caller id was Tony Torres my old highschool buddy or the Botosai I like to call him. I flipped open my cellphone and answered.

"Mushi Mushi Biotch!"

"Hey you grr chao flippin bastard. Where is mah shipment of anime figurine girls at?"

"They are at home and pissed off at me. LOLOLOLOLOL."

"Trent, what did you do? Do I have to come on a plane from Seattle to kick your ass?"

"Lols. U mad braw? Anyway how are you doing today man?"

"Oh I am doing fine just having to iron out a scuffle between Octavia and Vinyl Scratch. Both are upset because they want me to choose who is the better musician in the group." said Tony as I found a bench to side down at near a street towards a bridge.

"Hmmm, so Octavia plays the violin and Vinyl on turntables? Man that sounds like a bad ass kick ass combination!"

"I know man. But one day while they were practicing for a small concert for the other anime figurines, one of them messed up and I could not tell whose fault it was due to the music playing. They both threw down the equipment I bought them and tried to get Kagome, Ryoko, plus some of the DC superherorines to side with them. It's a hell of a mess."

"Sigh, I feel ya man Pinkie Pie almost ran away-" Pinkie Pie jumped on my shoulder and looked at me with a serious look on her face. "So my sister is having trouble? Give me the phone T, I got this..." Oh boy here we go.

"Hey Terminator! How's it going?" smiled Pinkie Pie as she was on the top of bench on her hind legs holding the phone to her ear. Now let's keep in mind this is a little pony we have here; how in the world does she have that much strength?

"Doing good Pinkie! How is that chao ass treating you?"

"Oh he just tried to hold me against my will for too long. Isn't that right T-bag?"

Sigh. I hate that nick name that she gives me. It occurred one day when Botosai and I were online playing Modern Warfare 2. He has his equipment set up named after Vinyl and I named a set after Rainbow Dash, hence a light arsenal for getting frags of the opponents online. Pinkie saw that and pouted as usual at the sight of not having me name a weapons set after her. What can you expect from a guy who loves speed and is inspired by Sonic and Rainbow Dash; it's a different kind of love you know? Anyway, I was not feeling too well with a runny nose that day due to it being too cold and such. When I sneezed on the headset as I was trash talking with Tony, he asked why not I get something to drink and I thought that was not a bad idea. I went to the covert in the kitchen and pulled out some hot tea. Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie took over for me while I was waiting for the water to get out of the microwave. She managed to get 10 kills while I was in the kitchen for five minutes. Wow. Just wow. When I sat back down in front of the big screen tv with my tea and picked up the headset. Tony asked what I was drinking and told him I had a T-bag with sugar, honey and vanilla thrown in there for good measure. Pinkie said that T-bag was a good idea. I said it was a marvelous invention from China. She nodded her head in disagreement.

"T-bag is your new nick name for not being a mr nicey pants!"

I head some crashing on the other side of the headset and heard a big whale of laughter. Tony was busting a gut over this and I face palmed for walking into that one. Apparently while I was in the kitchen, Pinkie told Tony about me not naming a weapon set after her. He suggested to get back at me with a nick name. Sigh. God has weird sense of humor doesn't he?

"Didn't I say not to call me that nickname and instead Neon San?" I said in an annoyed tone.

"Tee Hee. I still have not reached my quota on revenge for that day! Besides, Neon San makes you sound like a very bad Naruto wanna be."

I heard Tony bust out in laughter from her quote.

"Ahh man, I love it when you too go at it. So Pinkie Pie whats up? I heard you interrupt Trent so quickly. Want me to send you some cupcakes?"

"Nahh. I overheard him placing an order for Twilight, Fluttershy and myself at the bakery. If you could can you see if Octavia has a sec to talk?"

"Sure. I got no problem with that. I was hoping that someone could help her calm down. Hey Octavia! Its Pinkie. She wants to chat with you. Just a sec Pinkie, she is now just gotten out of the sink from her bath yet."

Pinkie was overjoyed with knowing that she will be able to talk to her sister. They rarely talk from time to time due to Octavia being on tour and "on tour" I mean by being shipped in the mail to other bronies who know of her magical talents. She usually doesn't like to travel in small brown boxes, but she makes up for it by practicing residuals. Some of the post office workers from what I hear get paranoid thinking that they her music when it's just Octavia playing away on her violin. There has been some times when we got some bad obsessed bronies who can't learn to respect Octavia's space. Though Pinkie, Tony and I would worry, she would be able to get out of harm's way every time. Octavia is one of the most resourceful ponies I have ever met. I overheard Octavia picking up the phone on her side.

"Hello? This is Octavia Pie, musical extraordinaire and genius. I am current booked for the next 4 weeks but I am glad to be of assistance to serve your listening needs with a sample. How can I help you?"

"Sheesh, sis! That sure is a mouthful!" said Pinkie with her tongue out.

"Huh? Pinkie! Is that you?"

"No it's a chicken! Buckawww!"

"I am sorry about that I only heard that someone was on the phone for me. I have Beethoven blaring in the bathroom. How are you doing in Ohio? Is the weather nice? Is Trenton treating you well?"

"Well T-ba- I mean Neon is keeping me in high spirits. Speaking of which, I heard that you and Vinyl are not hitting it off well. What is the problem sis?"

"Vinyl and I are not speaking to each other anymore."

"Huh? How come, Octavia?"

"Well, she thinks that I have messed her up on our collaboration project. She started to become a little bit demanding of me being here to put in some effort into our album and concert series. She wants to go on tour with me. However, I have a very and I mean very high demand from all of our pony fans. It's hard for me to balance out time for her; both personal and professional. I also think she is upset because no one has requested her services yet. I told her that Tony is doing his absolute best to advertise our behalf. She assumes that Tony favors me more over her! Preposterous! I love her like an adopted sister! How could she think of such a thing?"

Pinkie and I started to her some sniffling from Octavia. We both frowned at each other and sat there for a few seconds trying to figure out how to calm her down. Then I saw a smirk on Pinkie Pie's face.

"Hey Octavia, you know what this calls for?"

"Let me guess. 'A party!' Way to be sensitive in my time of need sis!"

"No I want to sing you a song."

I face palmed or facehoofed as the Brony Community puts it. I was signaling for Pinkie to give me the phone to stop from embarrassing herself. She gave me the look. The look that is on a female no matter what species, dimension, nor size she is: The look that says "touch me you die in hell fire" look. Put my hands up in the air to signal I won't mess with her and I decided to see what she was going to sing. She looked back at the phone with some disgust in her face due to me interfering with sisterly bond.

"I have been working on this song for a while now. I want you just to listen okay?"

"Okay." said Octavia as she stopped sniffling from the situation. Now I don't know how she does it but when Pinkie sings she has the ability to accompany background music with her. I am still dumbfounded to this day as to how she warps reality for her size. So the music starts up and I hear these lyrics from Pinkie.

"My name is Pinkie Pie, (Hello!)

And I am here to say, (How ya doin?)

I'm gonna make you smile,

And I will brighten up your day!

It doesn't matter now, (What's up?)

If you are sad or blue, (Howdy!)

'Cuz cheering up my friends

Is just what Pinkie's here to do!

'Cuz I love to make you smile, smile, smile!

Yes I do!

It fills my heart with sunshine all the while!

Yes it does!

'Cuz all I really need's a smile, smile, smile!

From these happy friends of mine!

I like to see you grin! (Awesome!)

The corners of your mouth turned up

But if you're kind of worried,

To turn that sad frown upside down!

'Cuz I love to make you grin, grin, grin!

Yes I do!

Busted out from ear to ear,

Let it begin!

Just give me a joyful grin, grin, grin!

And you fill me with good cheer!

It's true, some days are dark and lonely,

And maybe you feel sad

But Pinkie will be there to show you that it isn't that bad!

There is one thing that makes me happy

And makes my whole life worthwhile,

And that's when I talk to my friends and get them to smile!

I really am so happy!

Your smile fills me with glee!

And that's so special to me!

'Cuz I love to see you beam, beam, beam!

Yes I do!

Tell me what more can I say to make you see

It makes me happy when you beam, beam, beam!

(All I really need's a smile, smile, smile!)

(From these happy friends of...)

Smile! Smile! Smile! Smile! Smile!

Come on and smile!

(Smile!)

Come on and smile

Come on and smile."

I was impressed with Pinkie's song and her way of cheering up anyone in a time of need. Now what I heard from Tony is that all the figurines started to get around Vinyl and Octavia while Pinkie was singing. They all were surprisingly holding lighters while Tony's Iphone was on speaker; he even joined in on the micro concert. On my side I thought I saw people dancing in coordination to the music, but it was just a small Christmas parade going down another street. I almost did a double take and freaked out. Thank God that Pinkie is not that powerful.

When Pinkie was done, I clapped, quietly but, clapped for her. She did a bow to me and to the phone. Everyone else on their side was happy and cheering for an encore. Pinkie went to inhale her lungs and go for another song. I put my finger on her lip and told her not to get carried away. She nodded with agreement that one performance was enough to get the message across. But she bit me because I put too much pressure on her mouth and had my finger there for too long. It makes her uncomfortable when I do that. Still have the little battle scar to this day.

"So, sis. Do you have a smile on your face?" said Pinkie with a gleam in her eyes.

"I have more than that, Tears. I have tears of joy due to you motivating everyone her to bringing us together. Thank you Pinkie Pie."

"Hey no problem sis. If you ever need another smile, you know who to call okay?"

"Mmmhmm. Vinyl says hi and thanks for the inspiration. She said that she has decided to wait on me to be done this month to start up working on the project again!"

"That's spectacular! Tell her I said hi and I look forward to her next CD!"

"I will! Love you Sister!"

"Love ya back! Buckaawww!"

As I took the phone back from Pinkie, she hopped back into my leather jacket pocket with a bit of exhaustion in her posture.

"Whew. Man performing that power of reality warping tires me out!" She collapsed in my pocket and went to take a nap. Tony got back on his iphone to say good bye.

"Yo man, Trent, thanks for the help! I can finally get some sleep again without all the damn arguing."

"Lols. No prob man. Will you be on Xbox live tonight?"

"Sure man, make sure you got Pinkie there to cheer us both on!"

"Kay man. Will do. Kay man peace out."

"Kay talk to ya then."

As I got up off the bench, I figure I would treat Pinkie Pie to a movie. Not a scary move hopefully but whatever she wants to watch. I waited at the bus stop a mile across the bridge hoping to get there at a decent time.

When the bus pulled up I reached in my right coat pocket to pick up the dollar and seventy five cents it takes to get on the bus. Apparently I left the money in the same pocket where Pinkie Pie was sleeping. She had the 3 quarters in a stack like pillows and the dollar as a blanket. As soon as I pulled it away from her, she got agitated.

"Hey! What gives? I was sleeping with that 1956 limited edition George Washington dollar bill! Give me back my piece of history so I can have sweet dreams of the American Revolution!"

Okay, how does she even …you know what? I think I will stop asking questions about her knowledge about American human history; maybe she is just that smart. The bus driver wondered what that noise was as I said hi. I told him that my phone has a funny ring tone. He chuckled and said that his generation never had phones of that nature until the mid-90's. I replied with a laugh and said times do change so much and told him thank you as I took a seat in the back section of the bus. I wanted to make sure no one sees me as I explain to Pinkie to stay quiet while out in public.

"Pinkie…I am sorry for waking you but please keep it quiet. I don't want anyone else getting curious." I whispered as I pretended to be asleep with my mouth open. She popped out from the side of my sleeve and whispered back her grumpiness.

"You are just a meanie who wants to keep me to yourself!"

She stuck out her tongue and went back into my coat pocket. When I tried to console her with my index finger she growled at me. Sigh. I think I should consider getting another pony to chill with. Maybe Twilight or Fluttershy would like to go outside and experience life without having to hear constant fussing and bickering. As soon as I sighed, Pinkie poked back outside of my pocket and apologized about her behavior. She just likes to get her sleep that is all. Sometimes I forget how much human like she can be. I told her it was all good and she giggled.

"You are one of my favorite owners, Trenton. I keep forgetting how much of a good friend you are to me. When we get to the theater I want cookies dough ice cream with sprinkles."

She closed her eyes and smile, then went back into my coat pocket and hummed the "my little pony" theme. You can't stay mad at that pink one. Too much love for her. As soon as I was about to close my eyes for a nap my phone vibrated with a picture message. It was another picture of Fluttershy waving quickly and smiling big. I smiled at the sight of her happiness. I got another picture message after that, she was posing in a serious like way with a beautiful green and pink saddle with feathers in her hair. I went from a smile to a halfhearted smile. She wants me to make her a model and go on trips with Twilight as her manager. Why couldn't she just be content with being at home? God please help me. As soon as I was writing the previous sentence right there Pinkie Pie giggled. Sigh.

Pinkie Pie and Me

Flutter flies and Twilight Stars Part 2

“Yes Ms. Tanner, I understand your son is falling behind in math classes. I told him to keep up on his studies.”

“Mr. Davis, why can’t he understand basic algebra? I applaud you for getting him to understand his black heritage with your stories of your ancestors but how will that get Nathanial to process a word problem?”

“Ms. Tanner, your son was to become inspired by the dedication and hard work that my great creole family instilled down to each generation. I told him to take that lesson and to apply it to math basically.” I was on my cell phone talking to Nathan’s mother while I was in the back yard picking up dandy lions to prepare for Twilight’s breakfast. Shadow was outside in the back trying to chase birds and claw at them with his paws. I picked up about two handfuls while I continue to hear his mother’s concerns about his progress.

“Mr. Davis, if I wanted a black history teacher, I would’ve driven to Cincinnati. I am sorry for saying this but could you please come in today? I will pay you double to get him to concentrate. He has a finale test and if he can’t at least get a C, he won’t be able to get his scholarship to Harvard to play on their team. Please do you have the time today?”

I stared at the phone and wondered if she just insulted me. I went into the kitchen and turned on the oven to 450 degrees. I put 2 pieces of white bread on the rack and pulled out a frying pan and got the oil out of the pantry. The stove was an electric one and I put the frying pan with two teaspoons of oil on the stovetop. I put the dandy lions on a cutting board and started to dice the weeds into smaller portions.

“I am sorry Ms. Tanner first of all for trying to confuse your son with my morals. Second of all, you are just really venting and not explaining what he is distracted by. I can tell your son all the equations I want, but if we do not hit the source of the problem, then how do you expect to get the results you are demanding of both me and your son?” I threw in the dandy lions as soon as the oil heated up. They began sizzling from the impact of some of the water I had on them as I washed them off prior. I started some dish water in the sink and placed all of Twilight’s dirty dishes in the lukewarm water. I grabbed some celery carrots and tomatoes, chopped them up, and placed them in the blender to make vegetable juice. Once the blending was done, I pulled out a small cup and poured the juice to the top.

“I am too embarrassed as a parent to tell you. It involves the opposite sex. It’s something I thought he would not get into so suddenly.” She stated as I added a dash of pepper and salt to the mix of dandy lions in the pan. The bread was now toasted to perfection and I grabbed some string cheese and sprinkled it across the top. The green stems and whitish yellow of the pedals of the dandy loins were at a crisp brown now. I took them out and placed it on the bread. I cut the sandwich into tinnier pieces so Twi can eat them with no worry. Apparently the smell of Twilight’s breakfast reached my room and caused her to come down stairs while peeping around the dining room corner. As I caught her there I waved while holding the phone and she smiled back with a little “squee” noise coming from her. I pointed to the table to for her to get ready for breakfast. As I moved the plate over to the table, Twilight teleported up on the glass surface and whispered thank you as I continue on with my conversation.

"Oh no…Did he get a girl pregnant?” I inquired.

“No it’s something worst: Ponies.” I spitted out my portion of vegetable juice as she said the statement. “Oh you don’t say?”

“Yes the series called ‘My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic’. I am aware that you are an animation enthusiast, what is the appeal of this series? Have you even watched it?” she said with a louder concern in her voice. I needed a second to get away from Twilight so she is not possibly offended to the little white lie I have to tell her. I don’t want his mother to know I am a brony. I enjoy this job as a mentor for the Big Brothers club. I don’t want her to accuse me of “influencing” her son and telling the committee. To tell you the truth I did not even know he watched the show. It is a shock as much as is to his mother.

“I have not heard of the show as of yet. This is my first time actually hearing about the pony show. Isn’t that show for little girls?”

“It’s not the fact of him watching a show for any gender; it’s just that he is too obsessed with the net community of bro ponies that like the show.”

Are you kidding me? Did she just say ‘bro ponies’? It’s ‘bronies’ thank you very much. The gender neutral term that represents…I better stop before I start ranting myself…

. “Ahhh, so that’s the ordeal. I will tell you what I can do. Tomorrow, I can visit him and give him a proper talk about being involved in the internet community. I agree he needs to stay focused and I will get him back on track. Today is an off day and I need it for homework I have to get caught on. Just tell him that I will be over tomorrow night. I sorry for this misunderstanding we both have about Nathan.” I said as I was in the garage peaking in on Twilight.

“It’s alright. I am sorry as well; I just want my Nate to pass his classes that’s all. I am sure you understand that? And tomorrow night is fine to me. My husband and I will be out to dinner that Saturday night. It will be a good time for him to study instead of watching that distracting cartoon.”

Ponies are not that distracting right? Anyway, we both said our good byes and I sighed with relief. Man his mother is so demanding of her son. I pray for his safety and sanity. I walked back in the house towards the dining room and I see that Twilight is satisfied with a smile on her face. She licks her lips as well as her front two hooves with delight.

“Neon, how did you know that my favorite meal is a dandy lion sandwich and vegetable juice?” “A little pony told me in her sleep this morning.”

“Oh I did not know that anypony could her me talk in my sleep.” Twi blushed with embarrassment.

“It’s okay Twi. I sometimes snore like a lion in a den. SNNNN ROAR!” Twilight chuckled and got up from sitting on her back two hooves, stretched in a cat pose, and teleported over to the couch where she whistled me to sit next to her.

As I came by and sat next to Twilight on the couch, she turned on the TV with her levitating the remote with her magic. She turned to the Hub on Demand and put on the episode of Lesson Zero. I was caught off by surprise to see that she likes and even knows about the existence of the show.

“Okay my adorable little purple pony, what do you think you are doing?” I asked in a playful way.

“Spending some quality time with my best friend, what else do you think we are doing, arithmetic? But if you do want read up on it I am sure we can, just let me go upstairs and…”

“Okay, Okay. Twilight you win. Let’s watch your favorite episode.”

Sigh. Ponies are so demanding of anyone’s time. She got off her hooves and turned around at me with a smug look on her face. She teleported on my right thigh; she lay there as the episode started with Twilight Sparkle in the cartoon checking her check list.

Twilight Sparkle: Quill.
Spike: Check.
Twilight Sparkle: Parchment.
Spike: Check.
Twilight Sparkle: Extra ink.
Spike: Check.
Twilight Sparkle: Extra extra ink.
Spike: Check.
Twilight Sparkle: Is that everything on the checklist?
Spike: Yep.
Twilight Sparkle: Great. Now that we've completed the checklist of things we need to create a checklist, we can make my checklist of the things I have to get done by the end of the day. Ready?
Spike: Ready.
Twilight Sparkle: Item 1: Create checklist of the things I have to accomplish by the end of the day.
Spike: [sigh]

Twi on my lap chuckled at the beginning. I laughed as well and tried to ask her how she knew how to make such a good human breakfast. She shushed me due to her favorite parts of the episode coming on.

Twilight Sparkle: We haven't sent a letter to Princess Celestia this week?!
Spike: Why? Is that bad?
Twilight Sparkle: Bad? BAD? Of course it's bad! I'm supposed to send Princess Celestia a letter every week, telling her about a lesson I've learned about friendship! Not every other week, not every 10 days, every single week!
Spike: Huh?
Twilight Sparkle: Ohh... Where's my calendar, where's my calendar?!
Spike: Where it.. always is?
Twilight Sparkle: When did we send the last one?
Spike: Last... Tuesday?
Twilight Sparkle: And today is...
Spike: Tuesday?
Twilight Sparkle: Argh! Nononononononono! If I don't send her a letter by sundown, I'll be... tardy!
Spike: What's that now?
Twilight Sparkle: Tar-dy, Spike! Late, I'll be late! Oh, how could I let this happen? I'm usually so organized. I've never been late with an assignment.
Spike: Oh, please! You're the most studious student ever! I'm sure the princess will forgive you if you miss one little deadline.
Twilight Sparkle: I'm afraid to take that chance, Spike. This is the ruler of all of Equestria we're talking about. The pony who holds my fate in her hooves! What if she doesn't forgive me?
Spike: Yeah... I don't think she--
Twilight Sparkle: What if instead she starts thinking I'm not taking my studies on friendship seriously?
Spike: Why would she--
Twilight Sparkle: What if she makes me come back to Canterlot and puts me back in school and makes me prove I've been taking them seriously by giving me a test?! What if don't pass?!
Spike: Well, why wouldn't you pass--
Twilight Sparkle: She's my teacher. Do you know what teachers do to students who don't pass? They send them back a grade! But she won't just send me back a grade. She'll send me back to... magic kindergarten.
Various fillies: [laughing]
Spike: Twilight? Twilight!
Twilight Sparkle: Huh?
Spike: That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard! You're not going to be sent back to magic kindergarten.
Twilight Sparkle: You're right. I have no reason to worry. Because I'm going to solve a friend's problem and get that letter to Princess Celestia before sundown!
Spike: [sighs]
Twilight Sparkle: So... got any problems, troubles, conundrums, or any other sort of issues, major or minor, that I as a good friend can help you solve?
Spike: Huh. Hmm. Huunh. Huh... I got nothin'.
Twilight Sparkle: [sigh] Then it looks like I'm going to have to find somepony who does.
Spike: [sighs] This won't end well..

As we set up there on the couch, Twilight literally was busting out laughing at the episode. So now I am confused, doesn’t she like to read books more then watch tv? Maybe ponies are really just like humans, we all like to rest for a while and indulge ourselves into mindless fun. I am still curious about breakfast. When a commercial break came on she turned around and gave me a statement like she was actually commentating on the episode on DVD.

“They so nailed me if I actually were ever late to Princess Celestia. I mean I would be soo freaking out and trying to cause everypony problems.” She chortled.

“This is great and all Twi but we need to focus on how you got here and-“

“Ohhh! Its back on! Shhh! Here comes the coolest part!” The “coolest” part is when she is freaking out with the cutie mark crusaders.

Twilight Sparkle: Clock is ticking, Twilight. Clock. Is. Ticking. Keep it together. If I can't find a friendship problem... I'll make a friendship problem!
Twilight Sparkle: [insane giggles]
Apple Bloom/Scootaloo/Sweetie Belle: [giggling]
Twilight Sparkle: HIIII GIIIRRRLLLSSS!!!!
Apple Bloom: Oh, hi Twilight. How's it go--
Twilight Sparkle: Gr-eat. Just great. You three look like you're doing great too! Looks like three good friends who obviously don't need the help of another good friend. This is Smarty Pants. She was mine when I was your age, and now I want to give her to you!
Scootaloo: Uhh... she's... great.
Apple Bloom: Yeah. Great.
Sweetie Belle: I really... like her... mane?
Twilight Sparkle: She even comes with her own notebook and quill, for when you want to pretend she's doing her homework!
Scootaloo: That's... um... great.
Apple Bloom: Yeah... great.
Sweetie Belle: I really like her... mane?
Twilight Sparkle: I just hope the fact that there are three of you and only one of her doesn't become a problem! I'd hate to cause a rift between such good friends. So, who wants to play with her first?
Apple Bloom: Uh... You should play with her first, Sweetie Belle. Y'know, 'cause you like her mane so much.
Sweetie Belle: Nonononononono. I think Scootaloo should get to play with her first.
Scootaloo: I'd love to, but, um, you take her, Apple Bloom.
Apple Bloom: Applejack says it's important to share.
Twilight Sparkle: (thinking) I gotta think of something! Thinkthinkthinkthink Twilight, think! [gasp] That's it! (normal) Ooh, you're going to like Smarty Pants. And you're going to like her more than anything.
Scootaloo: I want it.
Apple Bloom: I need it.
Sweetie Belle: I really like her mane!
Apple Bloom/Scootaloo/Sweetie Belle: [arguing, continues]
Twilight Sparkle: The 'want it, need it' spell. Works every time. Okay okay, let's break it up. I think we can all see that there is an important lesson to be learned here about-- C'mon, girls, we're all friends here, right? Don't you think you ought to share?
Apple Bloom: No way!
Twilight Sparkle: [annoyed groan] Big Macintosh! Thank goodness! You've gotta help me get that doll away from those girls!
Big Macintosh: ...Eeyup.
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, thank you so much. Now if you could just give her to me?
Big Macintosh: Mmnope!
Twilight Sparkle: Oh no!
Apple Bloom: Give her back!
Apple Bloom/Scootaloo/Sweetie Belle: [don't touch it, it's mine, etc]
Mayor: What's all the commotion about?
Dizzy Twister: They're fighting over that doll!
Bon Bon: That incredible, amazing doll!
Many ponies: [arguing for the doll]
Twilight Sparkle: Can't... get... a clear shot! [grunting]
Mayor: Gimme!
Big Macintosh: Nope.
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, what have I done?!
Ponies: [arguing]
Applejack: Y'all hear that? What in the name of all things oats 'n apples is goin' on here?!
Twilight Sparkle: Don't look at it!
Rarity: Don't look at what?
Twilight Sparkle: My Smarty Pants doll! I enchanted her and now everypony is fighting over her!
Fluttershy: Why would you enchant your doll?
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, I had to do something! I had nothing to report to Princess Celestia! I thought if I couldn't find a problem, I'd make a problem! The day is almost over!
Applejack: Not almost!
Princess Celestia: TWILIGHT SPARKLE!

At this part in the show we both cringed as we heard princess Celestia roar with her mighty God like voice. It is really like if God called out my name. Both Twilight and I shudder at the thought of Princess Celestia calling us out due to her being in the human world.

Applejack: Whoa nelly.
Big Macintosh: [neighs and whinnies]
Princess Celestia: Meet me in the library…
Twilight Sparkle: Goodbye girls. If you care to visit, I'll be in magic kindergarten, back in Canterlot.
Fluttershy: Magic kindergarten?
Rainbow Dash: Canterlot?
Pinkie Pie: We're never gonna see Twilight again!
Applejack: Uh, What are we gonna do, y'all?
Rarity: Of all the worst things that could happen, this is THE. WORST. POSSIBLE. THING! What? I really mean it this time!
Twilight Sparkle: ...But...but... I'm supposed to send you a letter about friendship every week. I missed the deadline. I'm a bad student! I'm... tardy!
Princess Celestia: You are a wonderful student, Twilight. I don't have to get a letter every week to know that.
Twilight Sparkle: Really?
Rainbow Dash: Wait!
Pinkie Pie: You can't punish her!
Applejack: It wasn't her fault!
Princess Celestia: I'm listening.
Fluttershy: Please, your highness. We all saw that Twilight was upset...
Rainbow Dash: ...but we thought that the thing she was worrying about wasn't worth worrying about.
Applejack: So when she ran off all worked up, not a single one of us tried to stop her.
Rarity: As Twilight's good friends, we should have taken her feelings seriously and been there for her!
Fluttershy: Please don't take her away from us just because we were too insensitive to help her.
Princess Celestia: Looks like you all learned a pretty valuable lesson today.
Applejack/Fluttershy/Pinkie Pie/Rainbow Dash/Rarity: Mmhmm.
Princess Celestia: Very well. I'll forget Twilight's "punishment" on one condition.
Applejack/Fluttershy/Pinkie Pie/Rainbow Dash/Rarity: [All right, etc]
Princess Celestia: From this day forth, I would like you all to report to me your findings on the magic of friendship, when, and only when, you happen to discover them.
Applejack/Fluttershy/Pinkie Pie/Rainbow Dash/Rarity: [cheering]
Twilight Sparkle: Princess Celestia, wait! How did you know I was in trouble?
Princess Celestia: Your friend Spike made me aware that you were letting your fears get the best of you. I commend him for taking your feelings seriously. Now, if you will all excuse me, I must return to Canterlot. I'm expecting some mail.
Applejack: Y'all heard the Princess. Spike, take a letter. [clears throat]
Applejack: Dear Princess Celestia, we're writin' to you because today we all learned a little somethin' about friendship.
Fluttershy: We learned that you should take your friends' worries seriously.
Rainbow Dash: Even if you don't think that she has anything to worry about.
Rarity: And that you shouldn't let your worries turn a small problem...
Pinkie Pie: ...into an enormously huge entire-town-in-total-chaos Princess-has-to-come-and-save-the-day problem.
Applejack: Signed, your loyal subjects.
Spike: P.S. Obviously Spike did not have to learn a lesson, because he is the best, most awesome friend a pony could ask for. Unlike everypony else, he took things seriously, and- Eheh... uh... yeah... I'll just, um...
Applejack/Fluttershy/Pinkie Pie/Rainbow Dash/Rarity/Twilight Sparkle: [laughs]
Spike: [snorts]

The title music plays and we both clap at the episode. Twilight turned around smiled with her eyes closed and squeed with delight. I smiled back and turned off the HDTV for a sec and placed Twilight on my shoulder. I told her to hold on tight for a sec as we head towards the kitchen. I sat there at the green marble table in the black chair. The chair had a cushion for the back and for the seat of the chair. Twilight teleported down on the surface and looked at me with a puzzled look.

“So why are we in here and instead in there watching Friendship Is Magic? I thought you bronies loved that show and watching it with an actual denizen from my world would make you prance up and down with giddy. We have already eaten breakfast unless you want a snack. How about some popcorn or a fruit salad?” she said as she used her magic to open up the refrigerator with a purple glow.

“That is what I am talking about. How did you make such a good breakfast this morning. You said you visited the human world before. I understand that your world is similar to ours. However, can you give me more details about what happened you seem so comfortable after I calmed you down last night?” Twilight bit her lower lip with worry. I think I crossed a line I should have not crossed. I apologized and told her that we can just head back in the living room. She shook her head back and forth signaling a no.

“No, it’s okay Neon. I will tell you how I accidently got here in the first place. I mean, we are best friends, aren’t we? Best friends need to keep an open channel of communication since we do live together. As I said last night in that hairy situation, Rainbow Dash was here in this world; but here by accident. When we worked on a weather manipulation the first time, she ended up here and met a human who raised her when she lost her memory. To keep a long story short, we brought her back and found out she had absorbed some of my magic. To Princess Celestria and everyone else’s surprise we found out she had her father there as well. At first he was not well accepted, but due to some intervention from Pinkie Pie, the whole land of Equestria accepted him as one of the herd. But at some point he started to become lonely for human companionship. He loves “dashie” with all his heart but he was hoping to find a female brony to help him feel loved. Rainbow came to me for help, without the princess knowing. I was first hesitant, but my curious thirst for knowledge about Earth and its human population convinced me to take that dive that Rainbow once did.”

“What about your weekly reports on friendship?” I asked as I settled my elbow on the table to rest on.

“I just told the princess that I would be on a “trip” to Manehattan. Don’t worry I used Rarity as a double for me and Spike covers for me to send letters from Manehattan. Spike has so much enthusiasm for Rarity. Hee Hee. Spike sure does love Rarity, which is more motivation to find him a suitable match. Unfortunately, the spell back fired and here I am small in the fur. Oh and for the food, Rainbow’s father is such a good chef who is excellent at teaching the earth way of preparing dishes. I had to repay the debt for letting me live here in your home. Well, our home to say the least.” Twilight smiled with her eyes closed and I did the same back. I was about to ask another question when my phone went off with a reminder to go to the book store.

“Oh shoot. Twilight I am sorry I got an appointment at the Barnes and Noble store.”

“Huh? What kind of store is that?” she asked with a puzzled look on her face.

“It’s a book store, I am applying for a job there and I can’t be late. I think it’s a nice place to-“ Twilight teleported on my shoulder and hopped for excitement.

“Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s go! You don’t want us to be ‘TARDY’, now do you?” I took her off my shoulder and placed her on the black leather couch in the living room. Her smile turned into a frown and look at me with puppy eyes.

“Oh no, don’t you give me that look. Just sit here and watch TV.”

“But, Trenton….” “Now, now. I promise to bring some new books home as soon as possible.”

“Okay….” She was a bit disappointed and I felt my heart drop down like a rock in a well. I rubbed my index finger on her head in an affectionate way and told her I see her later. She waved back halfheartedly and I went out the door. I got in my Toyota and drove around the corner to give Twilight the impression I was gone. I then walked around through the back and watched her through the back window. She walked around for a bit for the first half hour looking and getting familiar with the house. The next half hour she read some of the books I placed downstairs before I left. Then for the next 20 minutes she watched some CNN to get knowledge on the things happening in our world. She seemed a bit disgusted with some of the violence that was happening in the Middle East. She change the channel to another station, possibly MTV, I was not sure due to her starting to fall asleep. As soon as she departed for sleepy land, I came in and quietly turned off the tv. I picked up Twilight delicately and placed her in my pocket as I drove 45 miles to the green plaza and walked in to the interview. I did pretty well and they said that if they have any openings they would give me a call. I decided to pick out some books and place them on a table near the back of the store in the science section, so no one could see and out of distance for any of the cameras to catch Twilight. I gently poked Twilight and she woke up rubbing her eye and then was surprised to see herself at the book store.

“Wha? How did I get here? Did I teleport by accident? And-“I had to shush her to keep her quiet and she looked up with me with tears in her eyes. “I thought you did not want me to go with you.”

“Nahh. I just wanted to surprise you, that’s all. I also wanted to let you know that we are going to be doing this a lot from now on.” I whispered
. “What? Lying to me and then kidnapping me?” She said in a sarcastic tone as she stops her tears of happiness.

“No. Start spending a lot more time with you. I know how you feel when it is to be lonely and have no one else to socialize with. I also am interested in your mission to help out Rainbow Dash’s father. He seems like a good chap.” Twilight laughed at me for using the word chap, as I am obviously American and I have a bad English accent. Yes you may laugh as well. I am not good with ‘chip o cherrios’ or something like that. Twilight then teleported to my shoulder rubbed her head against my neck, and teleported back down to the brown table. She smiled as I grabbed a book on Manatees for her to look at. I grabbed the latest manga of Bleach and we sat up there for 3 hours reading together. It was about 10 oclock at night and we both left the store with two bags of books that are around 225 dollars. We got home on that Friday night and watched a movie and went to bed to be ready for Nathan’s tutoring appoint tomorrow night.

Flutter flies and Twilight Stars Part 3

The Movie we watched before going to bed was Twilight, the first movie in the series. We stopped at the redbox outside my job around 10:30pm. While on my shoulder Twilight directed me to scroll through the list of DVD’s to see what movies were available. I scrolled through the Drama menu and there was surprisingly Twilight the first movie. I figure the people behind the franchise want new comers to catch up since the latest one is out on DVD. When Twi saw the movie titled after her she jumped for joy.

“So, Neon, you know what I am going to ask for right?”

“Ohhh no, no you don’t just because it’s named after you doesn’t mean I am going to watch it.”

Twi did her puppy dog eyes again and she hooked me line and sinker. Dagnabit, why are ponies so adorable? When I got back to my Toyota, I placed the groceries in the back seat of the 2 door car. Twilight sat on the front passenger’s side and I put the seat belt on over her. The lower part covered her mid-section of her stomach and she squeed as usual with delight as I caved in to her demands. I pulled into the drive way and opened up the garage via my remote attached to my sun visor on the passenger’s side. I pulled in to a halt and put the car in park. I unbuckled Twilight and she was so excited that she teleported all the books and groceries inside. But the thing is she put everything in its right spot instantaneously; the popcorn was in the microwave, the books were in my shelf upstairs in alphabetical order, and the movie was at the DVD menu screen. I stared with my jaw dropped as I looked at her on the couch with a blanket and some hot chocolate.

“Come on you slowpony, your coco is getting Lukewarm.” She said as her magic wrapped around my jaw and closed it shut. Twilight’s magic is very tingly. It’s a awaking sensation, I don’t know how many times she does it but boy does it sure pack a punch when I am asleep and she wakes me up for something. I sat there right next to her and she jumped up on my blue jeans and laid her tiny head about the right side of my beige blue shirt. I pressed play on my universal remote and it started. About 5 minutes in, I grabbed the popcorn and put it in a blue plastic bowl. I gave Twi about 6 pieces of popcorn as I assumed that was her limit on the capacity that she could eat. We both sat there as the movie progressed with Bella and Edward first introduced in the scene in the high school. Over the course of the movie, Twilight Sparkle’s positive enthusiasm turned in to harsh criticism about elements from the movie. For example when we go to the scene where Edward the vampire shined in the sunlight of the trees.

“Huh?!? I thought vampire lore stated that vampires burst in to flame when exposed to the light of the sun.” Twi scoffed at the scene. She was baffled by the movie’s interpretation of vampire mythology. Another scene had the vampire running at high speeds to out run each other.

“Pffttttt. What is this a superhero flick now? Since when do vampires run at supersonic speeds? This is ridiculous let’s read a book instead.”

“Umm Twi, I forgot to tell you. This movie is based off a book by the same name.”

She teleported to my right shoulder and had a dead serious look on her face. “Trenton, whatever you do make sure that you never get me this book, never…” I nodded with a blank slow stare at Twilight as she teleported back on my lap, lying down with her head on the surface of my right thigh

. She looked at the movie with a disdain for it. By the time the movie was over she got on the couch and pulled up a book on astronomy.

“So Twilight I can tell you did not like the movie but what did you think of the main character Bella?”

“She is too wishy washy. She is the text book definition of puppy love. She is in way over her head and her little girl crush is not what I could call discerning of the situation. In other words: a harlot.”

I busted out laughing at her assessment and she smiled. It was around 12:30am in the morning and I told her to make sure she cuts out the lights before going to bed. I got up from the couch with the two empty mugs and blue bowl to take them to the sink. There were pots and pans from today I still did not get washed due to interacting with Twi. I like to line up the cups then utensils, plates and pots for last; to make sure that the grease doesn’t hit up the dishes I use the most first. I emptied out the catcher in the drain that held old parts of chicken noodles and I believe corn bread and dumped it into the beige trash can that held a trash bag. I wiped it out and twisted it to the point of it tightening. I put about 3 teaspoons of dishwashing liquid in the sink and turned on the facet to warm so the water could reach the top. I turned left to reach for the rag and turned back and twilight was there ready with a levitating dry rag ready to help out.

“You wash and I dry okay?” she smiled with her eyes closed and she startled me as usual doing her teleporting from out of nowhere. “I have been meaning to ask you something Neon.”

“Sure shoot away.” I said as I place the 9 variety of cups into the water.

“For most humans when they first see one of us Ponies, they freak out, call the police or immediately throw us out in the dumpster due to use being alive. This is what I heard from Applejack before I left. She visited here once due to a request from Princess Celestia; the princess is still curious about this planet. How come you did not overreact to my presence? I know you screamed and all but…”

“This is not the first time I have dealt with the super natural. As weird as it seems that we can interact with each other Twi, I came to just accept this as a norm for life.” I stopped washing the forks and placed the rag in the sink. I walked over to the table to sit down and Twilight jumped from the sink to the table with no effort at all. “It started since I was a child living back in northern Ohio. I was about 3 years old and I remember watching ‘The Last Unicorn’ with my mother in a 2 story apartment house in the inner neighborhoods. I remember seeing this beautiful unicorn. She seemed to use magic so easily. She was the full size of a regular earth horse. She was the color of beautiful white snow.” Twilight Sparkle blushed when I was talking about the movie. I chuckled at her bashfulness.

“It was then somewhere in my brain that doing magic was a form of manipulation one’s internal energy. But it was a lingering thought until I turned 13 and interacted with a fast blue hedgehog. He came from a parallel universe in order to stop supernatural spirits from corrupting just a small part of Ohio. It was about some complicated plan manipulating space and something like that. I can barely remember. Anyways, he never stated his name though I swear he reminded me of Sonic. Who knows, it could have been him. But from him I learned how to run a high speeds. The power was just a matter of focusing at a point in your mind.”

“That’s the same technique I use when I deploy my magic with my horn. So if you have this gift what happened to it?” she inquired as she sat on her sat on her back hooves.

“Well life is what happened to it.”

“Life? Excuse me could you clarify yourself?”

“Well Twi its growing up and taking on responsibility. Getting a job, buying a car, getting a house, and taking care of my late parents. It has really brought me down back to natural reality and not the super natural kind.”

“Oh I am so sorry. I did not mean to come off as ill-mannered.” Twi said as she trotted over and put her left hoof on my right pinky. “You made the right decision Trenton. It takes a lot for anypony to sacrifice a little in oneself to take on a bigger responsibility. Trust me I know all too well. May they rest in peace.” Twilight said while sheading a tear. I picked her up in the palm of my hand and rubbed my cheek against her small body.

“It’s okay Twilight. I am just glad that you are something that can provide me company that is not something evil or hell bent on destroying Ohio.” We both chuckled as I put her down on the kitchen counter on the right side of the sink where the soapy pots and pans lay. I rinsed them off and Twilight used the dry white rag to dry them off. I emptied the sink and got the old food scraps out of the drain and threw them away in the trash. I like a clean home you know? As I head up stairs to my bathroom to get in the shower, Twilight trotted herself over to the downstairs bathroom which also has a shower. I like to make sure she has her own space and privacy. She tells me she likes to use the sink as a small bath. She uses her magic to put in different spices to the water. It smells like a nice combination of vanilla and cinnamon. I sometimes think she is cooking something. When I was done with my shower and put on my light green robe, I called Twi upstairs and set up her sleeping area on the recliner as usual.

Twilight smiled and closed her eyes as she walked around in the covers to find a comfortable spot to lie in. As I took off my green house shoes that matched my robe, Twilight asked me a final question before heading off to bed. “Neon, what are our plans for tomorrow?"

“I have to go to a tutoring session with my student from the Big Brothers club; it’s a club for any adult to volunteer to mentor to kids for the ages of elementary up to high school level. But before that I think I will do some gardening in the front yard. You are welcome to join me for the gardening part, but for this trip though I want you to stay here. He loves Friendship is Magic and I am afraid if he sees you that he will not be able to pass his test in order to get his college scholarship.”

“That is understandable…I just wish I was invisible so no pony could see me period.” Then it hit her like a piano out of the sky. “Wait a minute…I am the element of magic! What am I talking about? An invisible spell is perfect for this occasion!” She turned invisible with a burst of purple light and the sound of a small fire cracker. I was flabbergasted to know she could do such as feat. I was concerned that this might get out of hand. I tried to intercede with immediate concern.

“Now wait a minute Twi…” She reappeared right next to me on my left shoulder with a smile as I laid up on the surface of the bedpost.

“Neon, think of me as an assistant to help you on any difficult problems he might be facing. See I can even mentally send you the answers to help you with the session.” I turned my head to the right to ponder for a sec and I noticed in the corner of my eye seeing Twilight biting her lower lip with anticipation for an answer. I turned my head back and gave my answer.

“As long as you are silent the whole time, I don’t see why not.” Twi jumped up and down the bone of my shoulder with great joy. It felt like as a school teacher or drunk at a bar was poking hard with their index finger to get my attention. It was a bit painful but since I loved Twi like family it did not matter. As soon as she stopped gave me a kiss on the cheek for my kindness. I guess she really likes to be around me. It’s so weird but I have seen much weirder things in my time. I held my hand to my cheek and she smiled with her eyes closed. She teleported over to the recliner in a casual fashion and said, “Good night Neon. Love you.” I was taken aback on how just soon she said “love you” so suddenly but I am guessing she is grateful for being in a safe place in a foreign land; I would be grateful as well. “Good night, Twilight Sparkle. I love you too.” I responded. Twilight squeed with acknowledgement our growing relationship as friends and laid her head on the silk pillow. I pulled up my ruby red cover over myself and clapped my hands for the lights to shut off. Yes you read that right, I have the clapper. I don’t like getting up reaching for the switch to turn on the lights. I am sure we all would like not to get up out of our comfort beds this time of night. I look at her in the dark as her horn was emitting a soft purple glow like the sunset near the end of a busy day. It gave me a level of coziness I have not felt since the time of my mom and dad being alive. I would think that interacting with the super natural would be disastrous but having someone else in this lonely house besides my kitty that I can talk to really make a difference.

I closed my eyes fell fast asleep. For a while my mind was in that state of REM of where my mind was just focus on the soft humming of Twilight’s horn. Then It went from peaceful to a very violent dream. It was a lucid dream where I thought I was seeing the image of a black and purple fog constantly going throughout the house. It entered at the front door where the living room was and the whole atmosphere of the house was dark. It looked like to me that is was sentient and it was searching for something. It went through the dining room to the downstairs where Shadow was sleeping in his cat scratch post. The sentient smog quickly engulfed Shadow and left no part of him there. I literally watch him dissolve into nothingness. Shadow let out a slow ‘meow’ that sounded like he was in agony and pain. Next it went for the bathroom then up the stairs it slowly crept and went into my office. It then violently went through my paper work, desk drawers, and hacked my computer looking for something. Then it came into the bedroom by coming underneath the door like dark fog and caught Twilight there still sleeping peacefully. It woke her up and she tried to yell for my help as she tried to fight it off with magic. However, it did not have any effect and she slivered in the fog like if she was drowning in quicksand. I tried to get up to save her but I was pinned to the bed. I tried desperately to move out of the bed and begin to shed tears. I just lost my best friend to this thing. Next moment my soul was being violently ripped from my body. The fog wrapped itself around my green transparent celestial spirit and devoured it whole. The next thing I see is that it takes over my body and rises up with a devilish grin and dark purple irises.

I jetted up out of bed and pulled the covers. I clapped quickly to turn on the lights. It was around 5:45 in the morning. I looked near the window of the green curtains to see specks of yellow light coming in from the side. I looked over at Twilight and see her covers off her as she was on her side stretched out breathing with her mouth open. I quietly got up and rearrange the covers to put over her. She sighed at the change in the sheets and smiled. I breathed a sigh of relief as I thought we were goners. I was trying to think of what that dream was truly all about? Was it meant to be a sign of dangerous things to come? I mean I have just let Twilight in with no problems at all. Did I let my guard down too soon? Did Twilight use a spell on me to allow her this much attention and space for her? I literally stopped and thought that maybe I was over analyzing it too much. I am a nice guy by nature, why the hell would I not be hospitable to a stranger in need? That was enough thinking for one morning on contemplating the dream. I walked over back to the bed, set the alarm to 9:30 and went back to sleep. I decided to put it on the back burner to get some rest for the busy day we had ahead of us.

“Do you like it? (^ ^;)” read the text from the picture as I tried to think of something to reply to keep Fluttershy from feeling disapproval of me. It’s not that I disapprove it is the fact that she is afraid to go out. She is easily frightened by humans and she seems to be so use to me. Doing this modeling gig would mean she would have to go on tour just like Octavia. I am not sure how she would benefit without Rainbow Dash by her side. Her last owners were not so patient when they wanted to go outside with her. When Fluttershy told me she hid behind a curtain in one of her old owner’s living rooms instead of going in the backyard to play with the other figurines, the owner got enraged and put her up on sale on craig’s list. Now come on, that to me is just freaking cruel, you cannot just force anyone or in this case this cute adorable Pegasus to play. It takes time for her to get use to a new environment and I tell you it was not easy for Flutters to get use to my huge house. Especially my gray pet Persian cat Shadow; though two at first at the hardest time getting along but somehow she consoled him into being her personal vehicle to get down off counters or on the couch to watch TV. You are probably wondering how Fluttershy is texting she is doing it from an msn instant messenger on my laptop. She loves to be in my office to practice her modeling; using my desk light seems to cast the right shadows for her, forgive the pun. I allow her and Twilight to keep in touch with me about daily matters such as mail, the lights going out or if they want me to pick up small clothes or books in Twilight’s case.

“D’waaaa. :) You are just the cutest thing! I can’t wait to get home to brush your mane!” I texted back to her with sincere honesty and some withheld enthusiasm. The weight of my elbow bumped Pinkie as I sent off the text. It startled her a bit and I could hear her mumbling on about assaulting someone with cake in her sleep. I got a text back from Fluttershy marked with excitement.

“So does that mean you will let me model now? ( ・ω・) If that is okay with you…. ^-^”

“Fluttershy we had discussed this… -_-u Are you sure you are ready? Did you ask Twilight what she has planned yet?”

“Well I have checked with her and she says she is busy…”

“Busy doing what? o_O?”

“Studying…(-_-;) Sorry Neon….she is still refusing to come to the laptop to type anything. She even wanted me to text on her behalf… (゜_゜>)….”

“Sigh…-_-…I tell you what Fluttershy, if you can somehow get Twilight to text me herself then I will consider letting you two start modeling. Only after I am done with spring Semester College courses okay?”

“Ohhh!!!! (*^0^*) Okay! I will do my very best!” “Fluttershy keep in touch…love you! ^_^”

“Why wub wub wub woo too! /)^3^(\”

Fluttershy apparently loves dubstep music, which is surprising to me. I thought she would have been frightened by the vibrating bass of the headsets on my desk. I closed my flip phone and put it in my pants pocket. The bus was down liption road near some old abandoned factories and into some more of the rural areas before hitting the free way towards the mall. The bus stopped to pick up a single mother and her child who both were wrapped up in winter jacket with hats scarf and gloves. The child was a bit wind up from the cold and the mother had to calm her down. Pinkie looked out of my pocket and made a sneer towards the child.

“I can’t stand children who are soo---! Hmph!”

This time I caught her just before she could yell. I looked down at her with a bit of a stern look myself. She looked puppy eyed and nodded with agreement not to make noise. Just as I was about to apologize to Pinkie again, my phone went off with a text message. It was a picture of Twilight Sparkle with a apathetic look on her face. At the bottom of the photo were these words: Neon…Studying… Next message I get is with Fluttershy with her eyes closed and smiling proudly over her objective met. First of all that was freaking fast beyond what I was expecting. Second of all you are probably wondering why all Twilight says is studying. Well I might as well get to the details of how Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle don’t get along as well as you would assume.

Twilight Sparkle and I were the best friends a brony could ever ask for. I found her in an Target toy bin at the bottom of the pile. Unlike all the other figurines in a permanent smile on their faces, Twilight was actually frowning there. No joke. I took it to a sales representative and she said that apparently it must have been a manufacture error on the part of Hasbro. I need to get some advice on what to do about purchasing it or not. I took a picture and send it off to Tony to get his assessment. He called back and we discussed the matter.

“Hey Trent! Whats up you grr chao bastard!” he said as I answered the ringing of my cellphone.

“Oh hai, Mark. How is your sex life?”

“Better than yours!”

At the same time we both go ‘Ohhhhhh snaaapp!!’ Man, he is just a great friend huh? Any way, I looked at her in dismay to figure out if I should keep the pony figure or just throw it back in the bin.

“Trent, man I think she is sad…”

“How do you come to that conclusion?”

“Think about it for a sec. First of all anything she sees is just other ponies wrapped in plastic. That’s just creepy. Then the fact you are wrapped up in plastic itself and not able to go outside and get some fresh air its torture. Then there is one more important fact man you forgot…its books man she loves to read books and by the looks of the package man that plastic book replica is not cutting it. You must do the bad ass thing man. Buy her!”

“Are you on crack? Nahh just joshing. You make valid points man and who knows I might get on Equestria Daily with these pics. Lololololo.”

“You chao ass. Well man are you going to be on Modern Warfare 2 tonight?”

“Can’t I have to work bagging groceries and stuff lololololol.”

“You suck, Trent. Just kidding kay man enjoy your frowing pony!”

“Yeah…Thanks you bastard. Lol kay man talk to you later.”

“Kay Trent call you later bye”

“Peace out!”

I hung up the phone and took up my friends advice to purchase Twilight in her plastic confinement. Went up to the register and the sales clerk was kind and polite; asked if I found everything okay. I replied with a smile and said that everything went well. I got my change and went out to my grey Toyota. I put her in the back on the floor on the passenger’s side, buckled up, put the car in reverse and went to work at the local grocery store.

I parked in the far back in the parking lot and locked the car leaving Twilight inside. I was at first was going to open up the package and let her “breath”. But then I stopped myself cause at that time I thought it was crazy. So I went into work from 4pm until llpm. I was beat when I got off the clock. I was really exhausted when I walked in the front door. I tossed Twilight on the couch, grabbed a rolling rock and sat there staring at the package.

“Do the Brony thing! Set her free! The Circle of Life…It moves us all…” I mumbled to myself as I laughed at the thought of my friend’s assumption proving correct and her moving around probably trying to organize my loose bills or something. I opened up my beer and turned on the 360 to play Sonic Unleashed. I was stuck in Chun Nan trying to look for moon medals to unlock the next stage. I decided to play the daytime stage again for the speed rush. When I hit a part of the level when I fell to my doom, I heard a ‘hmph!’ from somewhere in the house. I thought it was coming from my phone. I checked it and moved on to the next stage; the chun nan daytime stage act 2. I ran through the level dodging obstacles and was on the verge of getting a perfect score. Then all of a sudden the game pulled a check shot by having a hidden trap out of nowhere. It was some hidden platform that I missed and the goal by just a 100 yards.

“Aww come on! The Hell? This is some bull-!”

“Hmph, hmphhh! Hmmmpphhh Hmmmmpphh!!!”

The package literally jumped up right and I was scared out of my pants. I screamed and spilled my beer and wondered how in the hell did this Twilight figure just moved. The pony figure screamed and fell over as well. I was looking at the figure again, the expression on her face was that of anger instead of of sadness. Then for the next few minutes its face literally animated itself through the plastic. I was about to freak out and wonder if Rolling Rock is this strong. I only had a few sips of the beer. I pinched myself and wondered if I fell asleep while playing a game. I called up Tony and told him what was happening.

“Dude, Trent, let her out of the plastic.”

“But man, I think she is Possessed.”

“Hah Trent’s a a scardy cat.”

“Pfft! The Hell I am! Lul!”

I took the package to my kitchen and grabbed a knife to open it up. Twilight began to cry in the package.

“Tony man this is amazing she is actually shedding tears! Man I got to get my camera!”

“Dude you should probably open up the package first and see what’s wrong."

Tony was right I was so caught up in the moment that I forgot that she actually was alive. I mean what if she can’t speak English? How come Tony knew so much about this situation? This was the weirdest experience that I ever was in my entire life. I told Tony that he should really see this and I decided to hang up and meet him on skype. I set up the laptop on the kitchen table. It booted up and I seen that Ivan Novelo online as well. He is a new brony that I just met online. I added him to the call as well and filled him in on the situation. They both sat their in wonder as I showed Twilight’s sadness.

“Neon! Where in the world did you find her? Is there a Fluttershy one in your possession?” Ivan smiled with curiosity.

“Apparently she is the only one I got.” I replied.

“Heh, Trent got the ‘special’pony; The one that scares him shirtless. Ha!” Tony contributed in his snarky sarcastic way.

“Ha ha. Tony and Ivan apparently this is all I have for now. If I happen to come across one I will let you know lol!”

The only other human besides Tony and I that Flutters knows of is Ivan. She treats him like an extended family member and she loves to visit him twice each month. But I will get to that a bit later. Anyways, I decided to just use my bare hands the rip the plastic open and man did it take a few minutes. Tony and Ivan were both laughing at me as I tried for a few minutes. When I finally opened it up Twilight ran out behind the toaster and was scared.

“Please don’t be mad at me. I was just trying to get your attention. I overheard your conversation with your friend and I wanted to get out of the package as soon as possible. I know you want to get rid of me… I don’t even know why I am here again…I was practicing a weather spell with Rainbow Dash’s guidance. Then I end up here…Oh princess Celestia! Please get me home!”

The three of us were amazed by her explanation. I decided to take her up in my hand to comfort her. She teleported to the living room and in a panic fashion she started trotting around the place looking for a way out. I tried to calm her down and warn her about Shadow. It was a shock to her to see such a huge creature from her perspective running around. She thought she was going to die and Shadow thought he had a new toy. I tossed a blue ball he likes at him instead and quickly scooped up Twilight. I went back to the kitchen to let Tony and Ivan know that she is okay.

“I am so glad she is okay! I thought she ran away…” said Ivan amazed.

“I am as well” I said as I used my finger to brush Twilight’s mane to calm her down.

“Well Trent, get use to taking care of ponies like this. My first day with Vinyl and Ocatavia weren’t easy…” Tony responded.

“I knew you had a lot more information then you were letting on… So Tony what do I do now?”

“Well Trent, get her some books!” I asked Twilight if she would like to read something to calm her down. She nodded while wiping her tears from her eyes.

“Do you have any science novels?”

“I have a biology book would that interest you?”

“Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!” her eyes perked up and she smiled with happiness teleported towards the couch and waited happily for the book.

I first of all thanked Ivan and Tony for their support and they bid me fair well for the night since it was late. I first of all put the cat downstairs so he won’t try anything funny. I got my old college biology book from my attic and went downstairs to hand her the book. She surprised me when she cast a purple aura around the book to turn the pages to start reading. As I got some carpet cleaner to clean up the spilled beer I started to ask her some questions.

“I know that this sounds cliché but where are you from? Are you really a toy? Am I loosing my sanity?”

“I am from the land of Equestria. A land where ponies are the dominate species. I think that what has happened when I was practicing with rainbow dash on weather manipulation I must of cross dimensions just like she had a time ago. But as Rainbow was fully grown up and life size, I am nothing more than a miniature size toy. I think that my soul is in this doll and the doll is acting like a medium. Oh and no you are not losing your sanity. Now can I ask you a couple of questions? Can I stay here? What is your name? What do you do?”

Twilight looked at me with a focused look and teleported right in front of me looking up at me with a smile.

“Well my name is Trenton. I work at a grocery store and go to college studying animation. Now if you stay here I need you to stay out of site and the office is your sleeping quarters tonight. I am sure since you implied that you have been here before but I just need a few to process this all.”

“Okay Neon. If you need me I will be here on the couch reading.” Twilight closed her eyes and smiled. She teleported back to the couch and continued to read the book with delight. I took the cleaning supplies back to the kitchen, got another beer and went upstairs to my room. As soon as I cut on the light there was Twilight there on the side table next to my bed with a look of excitement. I was confused because it at least took me five minutes to get upstairs.

“You read that already?”

“I am a speed reader. I am the fastest in Equstria.” As soon as she said that she started to frown again. “Neon, can I sleep in here tonight? On the recliner over there?”

“Twilight you don’t need to ask this is your home for now. Just get up there and I will tuck you in.” She smiled again and teleported to my shoulder which startled me a bit. She rubbed her head against my neck and teleported to the recliner.

“Thank you for being so kind.”

“You are welcome Twi. Here get some rest. I have a day off tomorrow and we will figure this out more.” I grabbed an old blanket I had as a kid that my grandparents gave to me and I wrapped it around Twilight gently. She sighed with relief as I said good night and she said good night as well. I cut off the lights and we both went to sleep; me in my king bed and her on my recliner opposite of me.

The next morning I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs with toast and a class of orange juice right there on my lap. Twilight was a sleep right there on my right side of my bed it was 7:30am. I was happy to eat the breakfast. Let me tell you it’s pretty good. Twi nailed it on the first try. After I finished the meal I came down stairs to find the kitchen a mess. Floor on the floor with her tiny hoove marks and oil on the stove and dishes piled up in the sink. Oh well, she went through all this trouble I might as well return the favor. I wonder what food she likes…
