Some Kind of object? >The earth was glowing. >You scrape the dirt around it. >It seemed to have been some sort of... small talon? >The end was sharp... >You jam the object into your pocket and drilled your way out, back to the village. >The entire time on your way back, you kept thinking of the small talon thing...   >"Come on everyp0ny! Keep digging! Don't you want some cake or something?!" >You can feel the exit close by. >Mayor Mare’s voice can be heard clearly. >Suddenly, you fell to the ground. >You quickly recover, and continued to walk onwards. >"Hey! Why can't any of you ponies dig like Anon here! ... Anon? Anon?" >Not wanting to have ANOTHER talk with Mayor Mare, you picked up the pace. >You took out the talon in your pocket. >With better lighting now, you can see that it was grey. >It had a small hole on the larger end... >You fasten a small knot in it and make it into a necklace with the piece of yarn you had. Haha! >You hold it up, admiring what you had dug up.. >Behind the talon, you see two p0nies. >”Ew look, its Anon the Digger!” The silver one whispered loudly. >”I don’t get it, what's the fun in getting covered in dirt day after day?” The light pink one said with a cocky smirk. >”And he’s carrying something weird too!” >”He is so gross..” >”And he SMELLS!” >”He’s looking at us...” >”If we're not careful, he might drill a hole in us too, ha!” >”haha!” >The two ponies make their way off, insulting and laughing at you with each step.   >You looked down. >... >You began to sulk and drag your feet. >... >An abrupt stop was made, when you bumped into somep0ny. >”Walk with your head held high, Anonymous!” >That voice. >You look up. RainbowDash. >She looks at you with a silly smile. >”Don’t call me that Anon, call me Sis!” >You look back down. Um... I'm the only human... And don’t have any siblings... >Before you knew it, she made her way around you. >She slaps you on the back with her hoof. >”Hey, its not about blood or species! You and me are soul siblings, ya know? We are siblings of the spirit! Don’t worry about what those stupid ugly p0nies say.” >She snatches the talon out of your hands. >”Hey... This looks pretty good on ya!” >She throws it around your neck. >”Drills are you soul! Ya got it? Now, come on...” >You never really saw the talon as a drill... >With further examination, it did have a purple-glowing spiral...   >RainbowDash cuts a rope, and steps over the “DO NOT ENTER” sign. >”Gentlecolts, sorry for the delay. Are you ready?!” >”Just about!” Um... What is it your doing? >RainbowDash wraps her hoof around you. >”Listen up Anon, that drill doesn’t belong to the village mayor, because that drill makes you for who you are.” >RainbowDash points her hoof up. >”ANON! Yours is the drill that will pierce the heavens!” But... Why...? >”Don't worry, I have it all figured out! Don’t ask questions.” Meaning, you can’t explain anything about it... >She tosses you to the other ponies. >”ALRIGHT YOU BOZOS, WE READY TO GO?!” >”YEAH!” The other 3 ponies screamed. >”We’re the invincible team Gurren! Nop0ny can stand in our way!” >Where did she come up with that name? >”Uh... Yeah...!” >”We’re sick of being cooped up in this little village, its young who are gonna break out! P0NIES OF THIS VILLAGE, AIM FOR THE SURFACE!”   >The village was silently working. >Ponies moving water. >Stallions pushing boulders around. >Foals and Fillies digging holes. >A small noise can be heard. >Ponies looked up and around, trying to identify where the noise was coming from. >You and Rainbow were riding on top of a flock of Parasprites. >A wave of color swoops past the ponies, who duck and cover benight you. >” Move, move, MOVE! Team Gurren comin through!” >Rainbow Dash flares out her wings. >You always take a second and admire her large wings. >Her wings, a pegasus’s wings where their pride. >RainbowDash holds tight to your back with her hind legs. >You clutch your drill firmly. >The Parasprites were flying together, with you in the front. H-hey, what are we going to do?! >”Listen up, Anon! We're smashing that roof with your drill! >RainbowDash points up with both her hoof and wing. >”Once we burst through that, we'll be above ground! We'll make it to the surface in one shot!” >You begin to tremble. THIS IS CRAZY! >”YOU CAN DO IT!”   >Another group of parasprites was heading straight towards you. >”GO! Just keep going straight!” >The parasprites collide with each other, forming a spiral, launching you and Rainbow up. >It was then, you can see Mayor Mare standing on a platform overhead. >”What in the hay?! RAINBOW! I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS YOU!” >”Move it or lose it Mayor!” >The mayor extends both her hooves and clothed lined both of you. >”IDIOTS!” >And like that, you were out. >All you could remember was RainbowDash... Mayor Mare... And a whole lot of parasprites... >This is for the best, right? >Who knows what could have happened if you hit that ceiling...
