- The Fate of Anonymous. - 6 - Repeats -
- >You wake up in your house. Another beautiful day in Equestria.
- >As much as you hate existence, there were something's that you had come to actually enjoy.
- >The way every day was as colourful as the last. If you didn't know any better, you would say you was actually making friends.
- >Unfortunately, your self imposed prison of mistrust denies you such whimsical ideas.
- >It's been three days since you returned from Canterlot.
- >The events of that day still ring true in your mind as you make your way to the kitchen for breakfast.
- >Grabbing a piece of fruit you recall how you, yet again failed to accomplish the seemingly simple.
- ....
- >The light dissipates and you're allowed you first good look at your surroundings.
- >THATS NO MOON, THATS... A basket.... of bananas.
- >What?
- >Looking up you see Celestia's kind smile.
- >"I had been wondering what to get you as a welcome to Equestria present."
- >Despair floods your body. You weren't dead and now you had a basket of bananas.
- >You hear the entire room breath a simultaneous sigh of relief.
- >This was the point you decided to give up. Clearly you wouldn't be able to entice them into banishing you to the moon.
- >Instead you retreated into the far reaches of your own mind as the event continues on.
- >Only snapped out of it by the horrible pun that twilight makes to at the end of the event.
- >"Well princess, it's been fun, but I guess we have to... Split!"
- >If you ever felt you needed justification for suicide, that comment would suffice.
- ....
- >You shudder as you take a bite from the last banana you had.
- >It wasn't all bad. You manage to get a job whilst you was in Canterlot.
- >The princess would pay you bits every time you helped twilight out with research.
- >It was mainly about your world though. Culture and Technology, that sort of thing.
- >You look at your kitchen table. Sat there was the notepad left behind by twilight.
- >Said you should keep a diary. It actually seems like a good idea. You can keep track of the number of failed suicide attempts this way.
- >You spend the first half of the day sat inside, writing about the events that have already unfolded. Starting from day zero.
- >The day you ended up in this 'Magical' world. All the way to the events of today. Noting how desperately close you got to your goal every time.
- -
- >"Day 8 in Equestria.
- >All I've done today is wake up and eat a banana. As well as update this diary with the events that have unfolded as of this moment.
- >I think I'm going to go to the Everfree forest today. I've been told it's dangerous and to stay away.
- >Maybe something in there can put an end to this fucking nightmare. If I succeed, this will be my first and last entry.
- >Wish me luck!"
- -
- >First however you promised twilight that you would help her with more of her research.
- >You make your way into Ponyville. Everypony waves and is welcoming. All smiling.
- >God this place sickens you. There is no way that everyone is actually happy to see you. It's a facade.
- >You reach the tree that twilight lives in. Library, figures. Before you can even knock, Spike opens the door to you.
- >He's a real chill guy. Hell, he was possibly the only thing to be honest with you.
- >First time he met you he said he was uncomfortable around you. You respected him for this.
- >At least he didn't pretend like the rest of these ponies.
- >"Oh.. Hey Anon, you here to help twi?" The little dragon avoid eye contact.
- "Yeah."
- >"Go on in, she's just reading a scroll at the moment."
- >You walk into the tree as he leaves , leaving you stood in silence in the middle of the library.
- >You take note of twilight at a desk, focusing hard on the scroll she's reading.
- >Standing in the middle of the room, you gently cough to get her attention.
- >She turns around beaming at you. You've got a bad feeling about this already. Letting out a small sigh you start the conversation.
- "So what do you want to know today?"
- >"Nothing. Today I need your help on trying a new spell." You can already feel your stomach turning over.
- >She quickly levitates the scroll back to within her vision. Muttering to herself, you're getting slightly worried.
- >Her horn starts to glow. Sparks of energy leaping around the room.
- "...What does this spell do"
- >"It's a time spell" The wind is picking up and she's having to shout over it now. "Similar to one I've used before. but it lasts longer! I nee-"
- >Before she can finish her sentence there's a loud crack of electric and she's gone from your vision.
- >You're now stood in an empty library. Books are scattered around the place.
- >Should you wait for her to get back? Fuck it. You're off to the Everfree forest. Her spell must of worked.
- >There's one nagging feeling that you're not seeing something obvious, you can't find a fuck to give though.
- >You start to walk towards the Everfree forest to notice it's almost evening already.
- >The sun still sat pretty high in the sky considering though.
- >Ok, this nagging feeling is seriously pissing you off now. If twilight was able to do that spell on herself, why did she need your help?
- >As you racked your brain you notice the lake that you first met pinkie.
- >You jaw hits the ground with the full force of the Hiroshima A-bomb. Looking across the lake you can see yourself and Pinkie Pie.
- > Pinkie pie bouncing around you. You, looking about as dazed as you currently feel. Pinkie speaking a hundred words a second.
- >Oh god, she is still talking.
- >You really did die and go to hell. It's the only explanation for this entire situation. You duck into a bush to avoid being seen.
- >"Anonymous..." You hear your counter-part say. You can't help but feel bad for the guy. You knew these feels.
- >You watch as the pink pony and yourself disappear into the distance, heading back towards Ponyville.
- >Ok, now you think you can piece this all together. Sitting your ass on the ground you being to play a mental game of minesweeper.
- >After 999 seconds you finally work it out. Twilight sent YOU back in time. It explains a lot actually, why she needed your help.
- >Actually, there wasn't a lot to explain, you're just dense.
- > Although this could prove interesting, perhaps you could find out where you went wrong with your previous attempts.
- >You were going to stalk yourself, try to figure out where you kept going wrong. Sounds like a plan!
- >You watch yourself, being miserable at the party that Pinkie threw you. You watch as you drink Rainbow Dash under the table.
- >Everything seems to be going just as you remembered it.
- >You duck into the shadows as you watch your past self and Applejack make their way back to the orchard.
- >You slowly follow behind, trying to stay out of sight. Who knows what paradox's you could cause.
- >Unfortunately you didn't notice Rainbow Dash stood there in shook at seeing two Anons.
- >You got lucky that she was plastered. She puts it down to double vision and flies back to her cloud home.
- >You peer through the barn and look at your sleeping body. 'Looks like a good idea'.
- >You find a nice secluded spot in the orchard and fall asleep under an apple tree. The night breeze, lulling you to sleep.
- >Your sleep is cut rudely short by the sound of apple bucking in the distance. The sun, gleaming over the horizon.
- >Solid snake would be proud. You make your way past applejack and back to the barn.
- >Slowly creeping the barn door open you notice your unconscious body, still in the land of slumber.
- >There's one problem though. There's no rope. That's when an idea strikes you.
- >You remember seeing back to the future so you know how this works.
- >You help your previous self kill himself, then you'll fade from reality completely.
- >It's perfect! All you need to do, is get the rope in place and distract applejack. ITS GO TIME!
- >Like the dark knight himself you make your way into the apple family home and sneak past granny smith.
- >Ninja's can't even reach this fucking level. You reach applejacks room slowly turning the door handle and asses the room.
- >On the bed was the rope. Objective one; Complete! Objective two; get the rope to the destination.
- >That's when you hear it, hoof steps coming up the stairs. You see the door open. BAILOUT!
- >You take a leap that would even make pro-athletes jealous as you dive out the window.
- >Hitting the floor you forward roll and stand up. That was awesome. Nothing will stop you. You're a man on a mission.
- >You hear applejack from the room above. "What.. Where's mah lasso?"
- >Better get going, you sneak into the barn and lay the rope exactly where you remember finding it.
- >You look upon yourself and smile.
- "Soon, my friend."
- >You slither out of the barn, watching yourself the whole time.
- >Spinning around you're now face to face with AppleJack.
- >"There ya are Anon! You seen mah lasso?" You slowly close the barn door shut with your foot.
- "Nope. Want me to help you look for it?"
- >She open her mouth to answer, although you don't give her a choice.
- "It's no trouble at all. I'll go check in the apple fields, you should go to Ponyville, maybe you left it at the party yesterday."
- >You begin to push her away from the barn. She's eyeing you suspiciously. You give her the best smile you can manage.
- >"Well, ok... I guess with the both of us looking we'll find it soon enough." She start trotting towards Ponyville.
- >You let out a sigh of relief as you make your way over to the apple fields. You make it look convincing as she glances back at you.
- >You lazily walk around the field for five minutes before deciding to return to the barn.
- >You need to make sure everything goes off without a hitch otherwi-
- >"HAY THERE!"
- >The concussive force of the little filly shouting in your face should have killed you outright.
- >Instead reality seems satisfied for just knocking you on your ass.
- >"I'm Applebloom! You're that Anon guy that was sleeping in the barn last night, right?"
- >You look up at the little yellow filly currently stood on your chest.
- "Yes. Could you please get off my chest."
- >She hops off, wearing a grin that would tear your face in half if you tried to mimic it.
- >Before you can even get up she's firing question after question at you.
- >It's like being caught in a crossfire of the Bloods and the Crips.
- >She insists that you answer every question. You start firing responses back at her at the same speed.
- >You need to get back to the barn. Looking up you notice applejack running back into the farm.
- >You're about to be right in her line of vision. Like a real trooper you dive straight for cover. Leaving Applebloom talking to herself.
- >Apparently she didn't notice you disappearing. Looking around confused she walks back to the house.
- >You give it a minute and then look up out from your cover. You see Applejack galloping off from the barn with the rope in her mouth.
- >Slowly followed by a disappointed Anon. God damn it!... That's fine. You've got more chances.
- >Although you wouldn't mind seeing how the cow event went down from the outside point of view.
- >You sneak up to Ponyville, just in time to see yourself break out into a sprint.
- >Ok, you can see what Rainbow Dash was saying. That looked fairly badass.
- >You also see how the entire herd had stopped just in front of you, except for the very front one, which just hits you before stopping.
- >You watch as blood pools from the back of your head and the ponies rush you off to Ponyville general.
- >You stick to the shadows, like some sort of assassin or lich, just watching the previous week's events unfold.
- >The ponies leave except for Rainbow and you feel the pain in your stomach.
- >You'd been so wrapped up in these events you forgot to eat anything the last couple of days.
- >You could have sworn that your sneak must have levelled up because you're dodging ponies left right and centre.
- >Slyly you make your way inside of sugar cube corner. You would take some cupcakes and pay pinkie back at a later date.
- >You walk into the back kitchen and open up a cupboard.
- >"HEY ANON!" The pink mare launches herself from the cupboard. Nearly giving you a heart attack. That would be too much to ask for though.
- >You try not to stumble over your words as you regain control over your heart again.
- "Wha... I-..Bu- What?"
- >You had no clue as to why she was in there, or why she wasn't surprised to see you out of hospital.
- >"You look hungry. Cupcake?"
- "Why are you not surprised to see me Pinkie? I should be in hospital."
- >She laughs like you just said the stupidest thing in the world. She responds once she's over her fit of giggling and notices your frown.
- >"Silly! Isn't it obvious!?" You don't answer, you simply wait for what ridiculous explana-
- >"You're just Anon from the future. You've been following us all day." She continues to giggle.
- >...
- >What?
- >Just how the fuck? Like seriously? This pony... You would offer a retort. That is, if your brain wasn't full of millions and billions of fuck.
- >Your Jimmies hit 88Mph. This was some serious shit. It wasn't even logical. There's no way that she could even-
- >"Cupcake?" She holds out a cupcake. You take it and walk out. You couldn't be more horrified if you tried.
- >Your face. Blanker than the flanks of the Cutie Mark Crusaders. There was no explanation. Your first guess of that pony was correct.
- >She is in fact a demon. No, she's the pink devil... You slowly bite into your cupcake as you walk. Bewildered.
- >You head back to the hospital and rock yourself to sleep in an empty room.
- >Tomorrow you would stop Fluttershy from making you sick and you could finally have rest.
- >Only the dead can know peace from this rustling.
