You are Anonymous. Canterlot's very own royal coroner. >After discovering your "Special Talent" the Princesses decided to give you your job. >Although your 1st day was a bit more hectic than you would have liked. >Picture it, the New York City Morgue about a year ago. >It started like any other day. >Some stupid gangbanger got himself shot 13 times in the chest with a .45. >It was pretty obvious how the fucker died. >However, in the case of homicide the deceased gets an autopsy. >So there you were cutting out what was left of the fucker's heart to put on the scale. >"Hello? Can anypony hear me?" >The sound causes you to nearly jump out of your skin causing you to drop the heart. "Hello?" >"I DID IT!" >Fucking interns. "Who's there! This is a restricted area, you can't be in here!" >"Calm down I'm not actually there." She says dismissively. >"I am simply testing out an experimental long distance communication spell." "Okay? So where are you?" You say while looking for the source of the sound. >"I'm in my castle, In Ponyville. Oh! What is your..." "Okay, where is the speaker? I don't have time for silly games." >"This isn't a game, and there isn't a speaker. She says with just a hint of annoyance in her voice. >"This is long range mental communication. You aren't hearing with your ears, but with your mind. Therefore, you should try to be..." "So you are a voice in my head?" You interrupt >"I suppose that is partially true. At least on your part." "You aren't going to tell me to kill my neighbor are you?" >"What?! N-no I was just trying to open communication with somepony." "Well you did it. Whoop Dee doo. Now can you please go away I have 4 more autopsies to perform by 7 o'clock." >"Autopsies?! Why are you performing autopsies?" "Because somebody died and I need to find out how it happened. Even though this particular one is obviously a total waste of my time and talent." >"I promise I won't take too much of your time. Please let me ask you some questions." "How bout' no." >"Why not? It will only take a few minutes. " "Because apparently you are just a voice in my head and I don't think I would enjoy living in a crazy house." >"You don't think I'm real?" >You at this point decide that now is a good time to stop talking to yourself and to actually get some work done. >"Hey, what is your name?" >.......... >"My name is Twilight Sparkle." "Twilight Sparkle? What are you a fairy?" >"No, I happen to be a pony." "Ponies don't talk." You deadpan. >"Yes we do. How else would I be talking to..." "Just stop. You aren't funny and you aren't a damn pony. Now get the hell out of my head!" >"Fine." >Why do I feel a high speed projectile "but" approaching? >"But can you at least tell me your name?" "Anonymous. There are you happy? Can you leave me alone now?" >-sigh- "Alright if you really want to be left alone I'll cast the spell that breaks the connection with you. Just wait a second." >Finally >you turn around and pick up the scalpel so you can finally return to your work. >"Oh no no no no no!" >Everything begins tasting purple and you suddenly get a massive headache. >Blinding light flashes causing you to feel like you've been hit in the head with a bat. >After a minute or so your vision returns and your head clears. >Looking around you notice that you aren't in the autopsy room. In fact, you aren't even in the morgue. >You see books, crystals, and a small purple thing with a panicked expression. "Shit."
