Your wish came true.
Chapter 12 - The whole truth and nothing but the truth
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAs they all cascade around you, you take another marshmallow out of the bag and also grab two biscuits. As you make the s’more, you see that everypony is looking at you in anticipation, without even blinking they all open their mouths at the same time, “Tell us!” You almost drop the s’more in shock, clinging onto it like it was your last grip on reality.
“Alright! I’ll tell you, but you all have to promise me one thing.”
You hear Rarity in the background, “What’s that?”
“You have to promise me that your view on me will never change, no matter what. On me or Rainbow over here.”
“But why would we ever change our view on you? Also, what does Rainbow have to do with it?”
“Well, you will understand when I finish, take a seat.” All of the ponies slowly take their gaze away from you so they can sit down. As they sit, their vision is straight back at you, Pinkie Pie’s eyes look so huge in the dim light of the night, it’s amazing. You already thought they were big anyway. “Right, I will start from the very VERY beginning… You’re in for a long journey, okay?” The ponies nod in acceptance. “You see, a Human is nothing like any of you will have ever seen before, I think I can show you what I used to look like, hang on. ‘Princess?’ You think, hoping she will respond.
‘Yes my dear?’
‘Could you do me a big favour please?’
‘Consider it done, but it will only be for 10 seconds, I don’t want any other pony seeing you like it, okay?’
‘As always, you read my mind. Thank you Princess.’
‘it’s a pleasure.’
You feel the same feeling you did before, light around you starts to brighten, and your heart feels like it is beating a million times a second and that it will jump out of your chest any second now. The fuzzy feeling comes back and you feel it all the way down your body, straight down your spine. You stare at the other ponies as they recoil slightly, they have just witnessed something unimaginable by their minds, so you accept it. “This. This is what a Human looks like.” The ponies merely stare at you in slight horror, but mainly shock and non-comprehending, still trying to fabricate what they are seeing. Before they have a chance to say anything, you change back into your Pegasus form. “You promised you wouldn’t change your view on me…” You start to play with the dirt on the floor in sorrow and sadness.
“We haven’t, have we girls?” Rarity tries to put on a smile, it’s crooked, like she is forcing it onto the surface.
You hear Twilight speak up, “Of course not, we know who you really are, I think…”
“Well, this is where it all starts… was a Human once, what you saw was me, before I came to Equestria. I used to live on a planet called earth…”
About an hour later, you finish up talking about earth as a whole, also the show, My Little Pony, how your life was; and now it's a pitch black night, all of the ponies are staring at you still, they haven’t taken their eyes off of you ever since you started speaking. “That’s how I came to Equestria, but this is where it gets interesting.”
“How was that not interesting?” All of them say at once, literally all in sync.
“To me it’s boring and dull, this might shock you a bit, so be ready. It’s how I met Rainbow Dash and how a lot of other stuff happened with her, it’s why you didn’t see her for a couple of days.” You feel quite energetic about this part for what you went through, but you try to cover it up. “Well, as soon as I arrived in Equestria, I went to see Rainbow Dash, as I found her the most coolest from the show. No offens,e obviously. I just liked her a lot more.” You see Rainbow’s face widen with a grin as the next part is coming up, the rest of the girls look understanding. “Well, as I went to go see her, flying felt like a second nature to me, it just felt so right, at this point I didn’t have my cutie mark yet, which got later on. I will show you after I am finished.” You look around at the ponies, wondering if you should tell them everything. You decide you might as well skip minor details, don’t want to make it too boring. “Well, Rainbow Dash saw my wings and she started flying over to me, not taking her eyes off of them the entire time. Eventually we decided to have a race to Sugarcube Corner, and the loser had to buy the cupcakes. Even though I didn’t have any bits on me at the time, I still wanted to race Rainbow, the most majestic pony in Equestria, she was just so gorgeous and filled with energy, her beautiful flowing mane and her deep purple eyes. The moment I actually laid eyes on her, I knew was in love. As we set off towards Sugarcube Corner, she was obviously ahead of me, but I kept pushing myself, faster and faster, I caught up with her, but then I went even faster, evenually the light around me started to angle itself. Not knowing what to do I just pushed myself even harder yet again, that’s when I did a Sonic Rainboom. But it doesn’t end there. As I came closer and closer to Sugarcube Corner, I realised I was going too fast. Not knowing how to move while at such speeds I didn’t know what to do, all I did was try and lift myself up as much as possible, so that's when I did another Sonic Rainboom. The entire time I thought I broke my back leg somehow. I felt so weak, so I tried to go rest on a cloud, but it was too late. I fell, plummeting downwards. The next thing I remember is waking up in Rainbow’s bed, with her by my side.”
You take a quick look at all of the ponies again, taking your face away from the floor, eyeing them up one by one. The look on their face is priceless, just priceless. Pinkie Pie is gasping for air as she sits on the end of the log, looking like she is crying out for more inside. Rarity is in deep thought, probably thinking about what you just told her, Rainbow is just blushing, hard. Twilight seems to be dying for more, too, almost falling off of her log. Even Fluttershy, who has been quiet this entire time, seems to be amazed by everything. Applejack just stares in complete bewilderness.
“What do you all think so far?”
Rainbow Dash is the first to speak up, “I think this story just got 20% cooler!” She flys towards you, taking you to the ground with a giant hug, Celestia must have not told her everything you thought she did, or maybe just hearing it from you makes it sound better, somehow. The rest of the ponies just stare at you, still in shock you presume.
You stand on your hooves with Rainbow on your back and her hooves around your neck, gripping onto you like she would for dear life. “By the way, that’s not even half of the story, it gets juicier. She didn’t put me in hospital once, but twice!” You take lay down close to the fire with Rainbow still on your back. “When I recovered as best as possible, given the curcumstances, it started to thunder and lightning, which by the way, scared the heck out of me. I was afraid of lightning then, but Rainbow wanted to race to Sweet Apple Acres and back, I didn’t want to but she started to call me a chicken.” Pictures of Scootaloo enter your mind, and you giggle to yourself, a lot, far too much to cover up. “Sorry, just remembered something funny. Anyway, eventually I gave in and I raced her, and everything was going fine, even though it was raining and storming, but we were far too fast for the lightening to hit us, or at least that what we thought. Then, as we came around the bend from Sweet Apple Acres, the lightning had picked up. When I heard the giant boom, I thought that it was Rainbow doing a Sonic Rainboom, and I started to slow down a bit and almost start clapping, until I turned around that is. I saw the love of my life falling out of the sky, almost certainly not going to survive the impact of the crash. The lightening must have stuck her, I thought to myself. My heart started to race like never before, I have never felt my heart go so fast, ever! I set off as fast as I could possibly go, I went faster, then even faster, so fast until I started to see the light bend around me again, I pulled off anther Sonic Rainboom, but even that wasn’t enough speed, I wasn’t going to catch her in time, I just couldn’t let it happen! With the last burst of my energy, I lunged towards her, grabbing her with all of my might. As I came up I thought we were safe, until I saw a lightning bolt coming down from directly above me. I tried to cover up Rainbow as much as I could, to take all of the impact, luckily it didn’t hurt her, but it got me instead, what happened next was really strange though, the powero f the lightening built up around me, I felt livid with energy, sparks flying off of my now white coat, my mane now also white with the sheer electricity surging through my body, right through my muscles. I let out a roar, trying to ignore the pain I started to hurry towards the hospital with Rainbow in my hooves, but the lightning was still attached to my body, building up even more by the second. It followed me as I got closer to the hospital. With every ounce of strength I possessed, as well as the energy I seemed to have absorbed from the lightning, I darted towards the hospital. I saw I was coming in too fast, I wrapped my wings around Rainbow and turned around, so I would take all of the impact on my back and she would be fine, I couldn’t see hurt, it would tear me apart, that’s when I crashed and I only uttered one last sentence that night. “Please, just save her…”
You now staring deep into Rainbow’s eyes, you give her a slight kiss and turn back to the group, all mesmerised and moved by your story, you can see it plastered on their faces. Rarity pops her head through to get a word in, “That is the most *sniffle* touching story *sniffle I have ever heard!” She starts to weep tears like a stream, she blows her nose into Applejacks hair without realising, she turns around with a face like a smacked flank.
“Thanks Sugarcube, ‘preciate that.” She starts to wring her mane out from the disgusting vile Rarity left behind. The rest of the ponies are at tears too, happy tears, hopefully anyway. You stand up and shift your wings so they can see your flank, which reveals your cutie mark. “Ah see you have a cutie mark, just like ah Rainbow’s over ‘ere. Wait a minute, that’s a double of it, as in two lightning bolts!”
“Yeah, I don’t even know what it means, guess it’s just the same as Rainbows, but I couldn’t just have an actual copy of it, they always have to be unique."
