- "Is it alive?"
- "Oh my, just what IS that thing?"
- "Hehe it looks pokey!"
- >You wake up to the sound of feminine voices around you.
- >You open your eyes, your helmet still covering your head.
- >BY THE VOID THE LIGHT AND SUNSHINE, FUCK!
- "Oh, um, girls? I think it's awake."
- >Bringing your mighty gauntlets to the ground, you push yourself to a sitting position.
- >The sound of birds singing assaults your ears.
- >The sweet aroma of flowers fill your nostrils.
- >A gentle breeze brought the leaves of the trees and the grass to a gentle sway.
- >The land around you was quite beautiful, untouched by cruelty.
- >It desperately needed a good purging.
- "HIMYNAMEISPINKIEPIEANDIVENEVERSEENYOUBEFOREWHATSYOURNAME?!?!"
- >A small pink horse with a bubbly mane smelling of sugar hops up and down in front of you.
- >The ecstatic grin on its lively face causes you to swat at it to get it away from you.
- >Your feeble attempts to slap it away are in vain as it jumps onto your arm.
- >The thing stares at you with enormous eyes.
- "Oh oh oh! We need to throw you a PARTY! A WELCOME PARTY! Oh, I'll invite everyp0ny! OHMYGOSHTHISISGOINGTOBESOGREAT!"
- >Oh no, you will have no cheerful partying.
- >You try to shake the small horse off your metal-clad arm but it clings to you tightly.
- >The fucker is giggling and thinks it's a game.
- >NO FUN ALLOWED!
- >Having none of this, you raise your other arm with a clenched fist ready to punch a hole clean through the thing's head.
- >Your swing is brought to a halt as you're enveloped in a purple light.
- >An obnoxiously sparkly purple light.
- >What kind of gay fairy magic was this?!
- >The pink pony, having since released your arm, is now bouncing about on the ground laughing.
- >Under no means is joyous laughter acceptable unless it stems from slaughter.
- >After all, you can't spell slaughter without laughter.
- >A set of ponies is brought into view while you're suspended in the filthy candy magic.
- >The purple one steps forth, its horn showing the same candy coating that was holding you aloft.
- >A unicorn of sorts?
- >Ah, such fond memories of killing off what you thought were the last of them.
- >Looks like you still have to finish the job.
- "Hi there, um, whatever you are. I'm Twilight Sparkle and I wo-"
- >You cut her off by bringing a hand to your face.
- >Its name was just as annoyingly adorable as itself.
- "Oh Twilight I think you're scaring him!"
- >You lower your gauntlet to see a flying yellow pony fluttering about in front of you with a pink mane.
- "You poor thing, out here all alone..."
- >It starts stroking your shoulder plate with its hoof.
- "I bet you're just scared is all. Don't worry, I'll take good care of you."
- >You bring up a fist to punch it as you wanted to do so to the pink one, but then the pegasus flicks its mane from its face.
- >The horse glares at you with authoritative malice.
- >It can't possibly think...
- >It continues its stare with intensity.
- >The little p0ny actually thinks this will keep you in line?
- >This was ridiculous, you weren't about to let such a creature hold dominion over your actions.
- "Uh, Fluttershy dear, I don't think getting so close to that thing is the best of ideas."
- >The white one was correct, you were going to rip this thing's wings off.
- >You're brought away from the yellow pegasus.
- >This levitation was unacceptable.
- >Being held helplessly in the air is not favorable.
- >Perhaps it is best not to try to bring death to these creatures as quickly as you would like, as they are capable of such powerful magic.
- >The purple one speaks again.
- "Can you understand us?"
- >You decide to play along for now and nod.
- >They all seem surprised by your expression, having learned of your intelligence.
- "Can you talk?"
- >You glare at the creature.
- >Yes, you could talk.
- >No, you did not want to.
- >In your defiant silence, the blue pegasus flies over to you and attempts to gaze into the darkness of your helm.
- >Its hair is colored like a damn rainbow.
- >Whatever realm you found yourself in, it was one of pure torment.
- >Not the good kind.
- "Huh, guess the big oaf can't speak. I don't even see a mouth on it."
- >The yellow one flutters over beside the blue one.
- "I still think he's just scared is all. Twilight, um, maybe you should set him down? At least for a little bit, that is if you don't mind..."
- "I don't know Fluttershy, he did try to attack Pinkie and—wait, how do you know it's male?"
- >A blush comes to the yellow ponies cheeks.
- "Um, well, I... uh..."
- >The orange one with a hat speaks.
- "Well Twi, Ah reckon it has somethin' ta do with how he ain't exactly lackin' between the legs."
- >This time, all of them blush as they notice the codpiece of your armor.
- >"Oh. Um, yeah, I suppose you're right. Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to set him down. I'm sure he knows we're friendly by now."
- >The foul sparkly aura disappears from you as you're set back down on the ground.
- "So, what do you girls think we should do with him? Whatever he is, he's obviously not from around here."
- "I don't know about the rest of you, but that metal clothing of his is just filthy! I think we should give him a bath before we even consider anything else! I mean, just LOOK at the grime on hi-"
- >The orange one stuffs a hoof in her muzzle to silence her rambling.
- "Ah reckon we oughta bring this 'ere big fella to the princess. Ifn anyp0ny knows what ta do wit him, you bet yer sweet apples it'd be her."
- >That pony's accent is like razorblades to your ears.
- >But a princess? Being brought to royalty you haven't either killed or deflowered yet?
- >This is favorable.
- "You're quite right AJ, we should really bring him to see the princess. I'll write her a letter as soon as... oh. What will we do with him in the meantime?"
- >The yellow pegasus floats over to the unicorn.
- "Oh Twilight, I can look after him for tonight. Rarity is right, he could use a bath. Oh! I bet he's hungry too."
- >Twilight has quite the worried expression.
- "I dunno Fluttershy, he could still be pretty dangerous. I don't think that's such a good idea..."
- "Oh Twilight, please? I promise I'll be just fine, if anything happens I'm sure Mrs. Bear would help sort things out."
- >Only a bear? You can easily take care of a- oh wait.
- >You don't have your sword on you.
- >You don't have your usual horde of minions with you either.
- >Fantastic.
- >You're in a world of seemingly eternal happiness and peace without any sort of weapon to raze it to the ground.
- >The white unicorn steps forward.
- "Oh Dear, I can't just let you try to keep watch of this thing on your own. Let me come with you."
- >Her purple counterpart's worried expression is replaced with one of moderate relief.
- "That's a good idea, if he tries anything, it'd be smart to have someone who can, um, subdue him."
- >You pray to the dark gods that they don't decide to drag you through the air like a ragdoll again.
- "Well, I should really get going back to the library to write to the princess. You two be careful."
- >The rainbow one swoops down.
- "Don't worry, if this thing tries anything, it'll regret it! I'll buck him all the way to that mountain with a POW!"
- >The pegasus kicks at the air.
- "Rainbow."
- "...and a BAM!"
- >Twilight tries again to get her attention.
- "Rainbow!"
- "...and a BOOM!"
- "RAINBOW!"
- >The purple unicorn's shout does the trick.
- "Um, yeah Twi?"
- "Good night."
- >Taking the hint, the pegasus and other ponies exchange their good nights and go their separate ways.
- >You hear a light tinking noise as the yellow one pokes your leg.
- "Um, follow me please. My home is this way."
- >The white unicorn casts a stern gaze your way.
- >You really don't want to be touched by their filthy magic again.
- >By the Gods, you're actually at its mercy.
- >This is definitely not one of the higher points of your life.
- >You hope to end this as soon as you see the opportunity.
- >Unfortunately, that opportunity won't be coming very soon.
- >Begrudgingly, you follow the small yellow horse creature to the little dirt path leading to its home.
- >The unicorn followed, its eyes glued to you.
- >Fuck this gay realm.
