>Day 567 in Equestria
>Wake up
>Knock on the door
Oh come on, I'm not even up yet.
>Grumble and get up, wearing just your boxers
>Stomp downstairs and throw open the door
>Fluttershy as usual
>"Hello!"
Why the hell do you look so thrilled?
>"Because I woke up and thought 'today's the day I'm going to get my Anon!'"
Wow. Two sentences without stuttering. That's a Ponyville record.
>"T-thankyou"
Aaand you blew it. Nice work. Now fuck off.
>Slam the door
>Knock
>Open it
I fuckin-
>It's Pinkie Pie
Oh, hi.
>"Hiya, Anon! Wanna come to a party?"
>Stroke your chin
>Pinkie parties are always fun
Sure, I'll go. What's the occassion?
>"The end of the world, silly!"
What.
>She disappears in a burst of confetti
>You stare at where she once was
WHAT.
 
1/?
 
>You run back inside and look at the calender
>'End of World today'
OH SHIT.
>You run upstairs and throw on some clothes
>Sprint into the bathroom
>Shit so hard you think you burst a blood vessel in your face
>Shave so quick you slice your cheek open
>Shower with your clothes still on
Fuckfuckfuck
>No time for stairs, you jump from the top step and land at the bottom, moving into a roll when you hit it.
>Run out the door, hastily locking it
>Screw breakfast, you have an entire day to kill before the world ends.
>Your lungs burn as you run as fast and hard as you can into Ponyville
>Ponies watch you pass in a blur with confused looks on their faces
>Rainbow Dash, probably sensing the speed, flies alongside you
>"Hey, Anon! Whatcha doin?"
Hey, Dash! Gotta do shit today, the world's ending!
>"Oh yeah, it is! I gotta go to. Laters, Anon!"
>She does a U-turn and flies away
>You keep running for the Library
>Reach the front door and punch it instead of knocking
>Ffffffuck that hurt.
>You nurse your knuckles while Spike opens the door
>"Hey-"
>Jump over him and run over the TWilight
>She looks up at you, smiling
>"Morning, Anonymous! What's the matter?"
It's the end of the world!
>She thinks for a second
>"Oh, of course! Well I'm sure Pinkie will be throwing another party!"
>She chuckles
>You stare at her, open-mouthed.
W-what? Twilight. The world is coming to an end! The calender said so!
 
2/?
 
>Twilight trots past you on the way to her kitchen
>"Want something to eat? You look hungry"
>Your stomach rumbles
>May as well eat something. No point passing out on your last day alive
>Twilight gets you a banana
>A little joke of hers
>Jokes on her, you fucking love bananas
>Chomp it down while she giggles
>"So, mister monkey. Why so worked up?"
Oh I don't know. THE WORLD IS ENDING. Doesn't that bother you?!
>She eats some oats out of a bowl, talking over mouthfuls
>"Not really. Happens around this time every year. You missed the last time it ended."
>Gawp at her
Wha...?
>She swallows her oats
>"It happens all the time, Anon! It'll be over by the end of tonight, don't worry."
>You stand up
I don't know how you can remain so calm about this.
>Walk out
>Fucking ponies
>On the way out of the library a nearby bush picks itself up and follows you
>It rustles and follows you back through town
>Turn around and glare at it
>It squeaks and sprouts yellow wings
>Growl
>Reach inside and drag Jonquil-Nervous out by her mane
>She blushes and tries to hide her face behind her hooves
>It looks absolutely adorable
>You hate it
Can't I please enjoy my last day on this miserable planet without you, please?
>She looks shocked at this
>"L-last day? LAST DAY? W-where are you g-going?"
>She starts hyperventilating
>"A-are you dying?!"
>She breaks free of your grip and latches onto your chest, hugging you incredibly hard and pressing her face into your ribs
>"D-DON'T LEAVE ME!"
 
3/?
 
>You sigh
Relax, Fluttershy. We're all going to die together. Now get the hell off me.
>You manage to pry her off
>She's far stronger than she looks
>You put her down and glare at her
>She ogles you, tears in her eyes and her lips trembling
>"I-I don't w-want to l-lose you..."
>She begins openly crying in the middle of the street
>You stand there awkwardly, just letting her do her own thing
>Looking around, you see ponies glaring at you and shaking their heads
>You groan and crouch down
>You place a hand under her chin and bring her head up
Fluttershy, don't cry.
>She sniffs and tries not to
We're all going to die together! It'll probably be over in an instant.
>You smile reassuredly at her
>She blinks
>Then starts sobbing
>Her wails echo around Ponyville
>She jumps into you again and begins using your shirt as a handkerchief
Oh come on...
>She ignores you and latches onto your chest again, crying and wiping her nose on you
>Stand up and glare at the ponies looking towards you
>Because you're so intimidating and cool and have a sobbing pegasus attached to your chest, they look away from your gaze
>Walk down the street with your hands in your pockets, wearing Fluttershy like some sort of frontal-backpack
>Ponies be starin
>Ponies be hatin
>Fuck the police
>You switch up the walk and start swaggering down that god damn road
>Fluttershy has since stopped crying and is just holding on, licking your neck
>You don't bother stopping her. Not like it will do anything.
>"Oh Anon~... You taste soo gooood."
>Fuck that previous statement
>Tear her off you and throw her on the ground
>She bounces
>Like piece of rubber
>What.
 
4/?
 
>You watch her flail and bounce on the spot for a while, scratching your head
I don't... What?
>Pinkie Pie bounces out of nowhere and joins Fluttershy, bouncing on the spot next to her
>"Hee hee heeee! Oh this is FUN!"
No it isn't. Stop bouncing.
>Pinkie Pie stops bouncing and pouts
>Fluttershy carries on
>...
And stop HER as well, for fucks sake.
>Pinkie reaches over and stops Fluttershy from bouncing
>"T-thank you, Pinkie..."
>Fuckin' horses.
>Pinkie turns to you
>"Soooo ANON! Are you coming to the party tonight, huh?"
I already said I was.
>She giggles
>"I know! I just wanted to ask again!"
>She bounces in place and smiles at you
...Why are you here, Pinkie Pie.
>"W-well the party says that you wear fancy dress!"
Actually I'm thinking of wearing all black. Given the occassion.
>"That's not very fancy."
Uhh. I'd be going as a uhh... Undertaker!
>She perks up
>"Great! You'll wanna wear all black for that!"
>You resist the urge to scream
>"Ok well I've got parties to plan! Bye Anon! Bye Fluttershy!"
>And she disappears in another bang of confetti.
>Literally, a bang.
>Your ears hurt and you can smell gunpowder
>You worry about that pony at times
>Fluttershy looks up at you
>"A-anon?"
 
5/?
 
What.
>"C-can I please spend the day with you?"
No.
>"Why not?"
Because I don't like you or your company. And I want to spend my last day alone. How is this a difficult concept to grasp?
>She whimpers and tears start forming again
>"B-but... But..."
No buts. Leave.
>She hangs her head in sadness
>"Ok, Anon... If that's what you want..."
>She flutters away
>You stroll towards Applejack's farm, time to get some answers
>Your walk to the farm is uneventful, but you keep looking at the sky, expecting a meteorite to crash into the world at any second
>Thankfully, nothing falls to earth
>You reach the farm and Applejack hails you over
>"Howdy, Anon! What can I do ya for?"
>A single bit and I'll plough that ass, Applejack.
Uhh, what's this about the world ending?
>"Ahh shoot, nop0ny told ya? Well the world's gonna end tonight. Ya should head on down ta Pinkie's place to celebrate"
Cele... brate...
>Your mind breaks and you walk off down the road, mumbling to yourself and plodding along like a zombie
Celebra... te...
>You shuffle into Ponyville, a vacant gaze on your face the whole time
>You enter the park and sit down on a bench, gazing at nothing and mumbling to yourself
Celebrate...
>You do this for hours.
>The evening rolls around and you shake your head when you realise how dark it is
>Look to the left
>A minty green pony is sat next to you, drinking a shake
How long have you been there?
>"Oh, well I saw you sitting there so I decided to join you. About uhhh. 4 hours."
You were sat there for 4 hours?
>"Yeah. You're a great listener by the way. It's not every day I tell someone about my issues with Bon Bon."
>She hops off the bench and pats you on the leg
>"Great meeting you, Uuuugh."
uuuugh?
>"Yeah. When I asked your name you said "Uuuugh". I thought it was exotic. It suits you. Anyway, I'm off to an End of the World party. Bye!"
>Her horn lights up and she teleports away
>You thought only Twilight could do that.
 
6/?
 
>You wander through town
>Under the evening sun, ponies are hanging up banners
>"Merry End of the World!"
>You shake your head
This world is insane. Everyone is insane.
>You walk past a stall, that is selling strange looking candy apples
>Go over
Hey. What are these?
>"Doom Apples!"
What.
>"Look! The Apple represents the world, and the melted cheese is the lava that will consume it!"
>Melted cheese on an apple.
>That disturbs you more than the event it represents.
>Turn around
>Pink vision.
>"HIYA ANON! You ready to par-tay? I changed the location to a hill! Isn't that great?!"
Uhhh.
>"Great! Come on, lets go!"
>She drags you out of town and towards a hill, where you spot the mane 6, as well as several other ponies dotted around on mats, gazing at the sky
>Pinkie Pie stops dragging you when you reach the mat
>Rainbow Dash greets you
>"Hey, Anon. You ready? I got all that stuff I wanted to do done, so tonight should be great!"
>You look at the sky
>Not a cloud in sight for miles
Damn, Rainbow. You really went all out... For the end of the world.
>"Heck yeah! I don't wanna miss a thing!"
>You don't bother asking why. You've already gathered that everyone in this town is off the rails.
>Twilight shuffles over and sits next to you
>"It's going to be great, Anon. Just watch."
You still never explained how you're alive if the world ends every year
 
7/?
 
>Suddenly a great rift opens in the sky
>A voice booms out across the land
>Celestias
>"My faithful subjects. Tonight is the annual end of the world!"
>Everyone on the hill cheers, and you hear Ponyville scream in response to Celestia as well.
>"Naturally, to keep the magic of this world alive, we must sacrifice one planet every year, and harvest the raw energy it gives off in order to retain our magic!"
YOU FUCKING WHAT.
>Twilight shushes you
>"This year, my sister has been on the search for a suitable world, and we found one! A lovely little rock far on the edge of the galaxy!"
>More cheers
>You are absolutely horrified right now
>The rift, previously inky black and floating in the sky, flickers, and an image of a little green planet hovering in space is shown
>"Of course, there is no life on this planet. Because that would go against our code of decency. So, ponies! Shall we blow her up?"
>Celestia giggles
>EVeryone cheers
>You just stare, mouth agape
>Celestia then begins a countdown
>"FIVE!"
>"FOUR!"
>"THREE!"
>"TWO!"
>"ONE!"
>At that moment, a beam of bright yellow energy explodes out of Canterlot in the distance, and towards the night sky.
>A few seconds pass, and then the rift shows the planet get struck by the beam, causing it to shudder, and veins of yellow appear all over it
>The veins fade, and another moment passes
>Before the planet detonates
 
8/?
 
>In a spectacular supernova, the planet is obliterated. Energy and radiation shooting out in all directions
>Shortly after, the residue and light all gathers together and flies away in the direction the beam came from
>The radiation of a supernova, and all the energy that goes with it, cascades onto Equestria, and the skies burn bright with yellow and orange hues
>You gawp at it, unable to speak or even comprehend just how it's happening
>Instead you stand up and walk away from the Mane 6, all of them smiling up at the sky
>This wasn't in the show
>This wasn't in the show at all
>You stop a small distance away from the Mane 6 and look back at the sky
>The colours swirl, like a maelstrom of energy
>Scientists back on Earth would throw a fit if they saw this. This isn't scientifically possible.
>You slump onto the grass and just gaze at it all
>"It's really quite something, isn't it?"
>You look next to you
>A light brown unicorn is looking up at the sky, an indifferent look on his face
I'm sorry?
>He continues
>"Though really, it's quite predictable."
I... I thought the world was actually going to end. Not blow up another planet.
>"I can understand why. You're new here, afterall. So this must be quite a shock to you."
 
9/?
 
 
Oh... Okay
>You sit in silence and look up at the sky with him
>"So you really didn't figure it out?"
No, did you?
>"First time I knew what it was, yeah. I was young at the time. All the previous years my parents kept me indoors because I was scared of loud noises"
>He chuckles
>"So they never explained it"
>"Then one year I step outside and see people celebrating the end of the world. I figured it out in a few hours. I was fine after that. Still, it's quite shocking the first time."
>Smile at him
Glad to know I'm not the only one. I thought everyone was insane. Still kinda do, considering they're celebrating the death of a planet
>"Yeah. It's mad. I don't like it, but it's gotta be done. Ponies need magic to survive. Otherwise the world would come crashing down around us."
I see...
>You both sit in silence and watch the sky form beautiful patterns with the cosmic energy
>You feel a bit cheated
>No one even explained it to you. You've been panicking all day.
>But it doesn't really matter anymore
>It's happened, and there's nothing you can do about it.
>You sigh and lie back on the grass, and your mysterious new friend joins you
>The hours roll by and you just lie there in silence, the other ponies disperce but you don't care
>The cosmic energy fades gradually and you're left looking at the night sky, dark once more.
>Turn to the stallion
So uhh. What was your name again?
>"Oh. Clederick"
Clederick...
>What a lovely name.
