The Fate of Anonymous. - 15 - Same Old Rope -

 

>'Hello old friend'

>'It's been too long'

>You're embraced by the familiar un-dream like state

>Thrown into a void of darkness

>The only welcoming place you've ever been

>This is where you belong

>Here

>In this unending sea of shrouds and shadows

>You feel the elation of the situation wash over you in waves of pure bliss

>Although it's strange

>You felt something else

>A single twitch of regret courses through the area where your heart should be

>Did Sweetie Bell make it?

>It was of little concern anymore

>You'd reached your prize

>At least that's what you thought.

>You thought you had finally gotten a grasp on the one thing you yearned for

>The only thing you ever needed any more

>How woefully unprepared you were for the following events

>Because to die this day was not your fate.

>No.

>Not yet.

>You would get your desires.

>Although not this day.

>For this day, destiny conspired to bring you back from the precipice.

>As the light pierced the veil that had coated you, every fibre of your non-existence groaned.

>Knowing all too well what was to come next.

>Colour and sounds clash and collide as your consciousness is thrust back into its body.

>"Is he going to be all right?"

>"Only time will tell"

>The only thoughts able to cross your mind

>'Fuck my unending life.'

>Blink out of existence as you pass out.

>...

>"Can't have you dying before the game is over now, Can we?"

 

>"How's he doing today?"

>"He's making an improvement, although it will be a while before he's out of here."

>"Ok. If he wakes up tell him I stopped by."

>'I hate everything'

>You stir from your dreamless state, eye's slowing creaking open to reveal the flourish of bland colours that could only mean the hospital.

>'Does Equestria have free health care?'

>'If not I'm in some serious debt by now.'

>Your eyelids only open a few centimetres before they become too heavy and droop back down.

>It's fine really, you didn't feel like getting up and doing anything today anyway.

>Well, today and any other day for that matter.

>Think anyone would care if you chose just to not get up? Like, ever.

>You feel like you're forgetting something.

>Something really important.

>Seriously, What the hell?

>Could it be that Arty has had to fend for himself while you've been in here?

>No, that's not it, You're sure he's fine without you.

>I mean, he's a massive creature hybrid of nothing but predators.

>Actually... Are the ponies safe from Arty?

>Ponies... Safe... Ponies... Safe.......

>SWEETIE BELL!

>A Surge of energy gush's through your body as you practically fling yourself out of bed.

>Moving to steady yourself with your hand you realize you have none.

>What?

>Landing face first into another pony, the horror of the situation takes control of your brain.

>"WHOAH! Easy there! You're awake? That's a good sign, although jumping on your Doctor isn't advised."

 

>You're feet are gone as well

>You have no hands or feet.

>Oh god, this is the worst kind of hell

>"You've made a remarkable recovery. You might be a bit disorientated. Although with the condition you was in we couldn't save you  in any other form."

>You knew it.

>It only gets worse for you.

>Never catching a break.

>You eye your body over.

>You're a... a.... PONY!

>'Shoot me now'

>Oh shit, right, Sweetie Bell.

"How's Sweetie Bell? Did she make it?"

>You start to shake the doctor with your hooves.

>If she didn't make it all the more reason to kill yourself.

>You might have allowed the death of the only sentient creature to show genuine concern for you.

>"Whoah! You really need to calm down, It's not good for you. It'll be the death of you."

>Nope.jpg

"HOW. IS. SHE?"

>"She's fine, She's fine. She got signed out only two days after getting admitted."

>"A real speedy recovery I can tell you that, Although it's not surprising with the Elements of Harmony helping and all."

>Praise be to your deity of choice.

>Although it still doesn't subtract from the fact that she nearly died because of you.

>'Way to put a downer on things.'

>"You on the other hand, You've been here for nearly a month now."

 

>A month?

>'Explains why I'm so hungry.'

>You could really go from some fresh crispy hay

>Hay?

>Great, you're already craving weird pony food.

"Could I get something to eat?"

>"I'll send one of the nurses along in a minute with some food.

>You allow the doctor to help you back to bed

>"You'll also need to get used to walking like that until twilight get's back."

"Back? Where from?"

>"She's gone to Canterlot to speak with the princess about something. She'll be back in a day or so."

>Great. Stuck as a pony for a couple of days.

>As if your life couldn't get any better.

>As the doctor leaves he abruptly stops at the door.

>"Oh, by the way, Rainbow Dash stopped by earlier."

>Rainbow Dash?

>Why'd she visit?

>I know she visited last time you was in hospital

>Although she just wanted to know about earth.

>Guess that should be your first stop.

>Find out what Dash wanted.

>The rest of the day passed fairly uneventful

>There was one time during the day you had the opportunity to kill yourself.

>However lack of opposable thumbs made grasping the medical equipment harder than thought.

>The next day was not quite as "Un-Eventful" as you would have hoped unfortunately.

 

>After getting yourself signed out of the hospital you made a V-line straight to  Rainbow dash's  place.

>Or at least you would if you had any idea where the fuck it was.

>Aimlessly walking the street you find yourself stumbling over your hooves from time to time.

>God dammit it all.

>Stuck like this for two whole days does not sound like your idea of fun.

>Although to be fair, being alive in general isn't your idea of fun.

>As you walk the street you notice all the mares slyly staring at you.

>A few of them even wink as you feel their gaze hover over your flank.

>You don't like this.

>Not

>One

>Bit.

>Here's the plan, First go to sweet apple acres and ask applejack where Rainbow Dash's place is.

>Second go to Rainbow Dash to find out why she visited.

>Third, find a way to kill yourself.

>With a checklist like that, Twilight would be proud.

>"Well, hey there handsome! I haven't seen you around before, new? Needs some to... Show you around?"

>Nope.jpg

>A cream coloured pony with a pink and dark blue mane slowly rubs your chest.

 

"Well, I... Oh god, erm..."

>You look to the left and right for anything you can use for your escape.

>You notice a mint green pony stood to the left looking sorely uninterested.

>"The name's bon bon, but you can just call me sugar"

>You take it all back

>Pinkie Pie is your second least hated pony.

"The thing is... I've really, got to... Go. Do stuff... Elsewhere, not here... Far from here, Never here."

>"Well if you're going so far away, perhaps a parting gift?"

>That pony actually just bit her lip.

>No. Never. Nope. Nein. Nicht, Nuh-uh, No way!

>"Ugh, Come on bon bon, He's clearly not interest, let's just go shall we?"

>Right now you could kiss that mare. You won't, but you could.

>"Just because you're more interested in that weird human than you are stallions doesn't mean that I am."

>Actually no, You would not kiss that mare.

>"He's not weird! How could anything with such perfect hands be weird...."

>You don't know what's creeping you out more, the fact that this pony is hitting on you now, or that the other one has a fetish for your hands.

>"Anon!? Anon! Get over here! Sorry gals, This stallions taken!"

>Bewildered by all the events taking place you manage to stumble over your own hooves as you turn around to meet the source of the voice.

 

"Applejack! I was just looking for you."

>"Really? That's a good thing too sugarcube, cause I was just thinking 'bout you."

>Just like that, all preconceived notions that she was going to save you, fluttered into the wind.

"I... Just need to know where Rainbow Dash lives."

>Applejack is giving you the best bedroom eyes you've ever seen.

>"Heh, how 'bout I show you where I live, we could get... Better acquainted in the barn."

>"Now hold on! I was here first, he's mine!"

>The cream pony steps forward to confront Applejack.

>Quite frankly you hope that they end up killing each other. Or you. Either ones fine.

>"You wanna tango little missy?"

>Why are all the mares so god damn crazy.

>"What if I do!?"

>"Trust me, you don't wanna mess with one of the apple family!"

>"When I'm through with you you'll be apple sauce!"

> You're astounded with the leap made by the small orange pony.

>Also a little bit frightened at how quickly the fight was over.

>With almost one swift blow the cream pony was knocked unconscious.

>Cautiously  the mint green pony picked up her friend and began to drag her off.

>Making sure to never break eye contact with Applejack.

>Better leave while she's distracted.

>At a full sprint you head for the nearby bridge, crossing the river.

>"Oh no ya don't!"

>You're now eating dirt.

>Oh look, it's the same rope that failed to kill you nearly 3 months ago.

>Now it's being used in a sexual assault.

>By a Pony.

>Against you.

>Swell.
