Another Chance at Life
Chapter 19: 19. Get Ready For A Trip
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI spent the rest of my day Bucking apple trees until I looked at the sun. It was starting to lower down onto the horizon. I know that sounds wrong but you get my idea! I wiped my forehead and thought about all that had happened today.
So here’s the big rundown of what did and did bot scar my brain today:
1. Applejack asked me a really awkward question. Not scarring
2. I answered it being completely honest! Mildly scarring
3. I had a freakout while I was working. Getting there
4. Rainbow Dash heard everything and knows how I feel! HHHNNNGGG status immenent!
5. She may feel the same way! ACK! *thud*
Well that’s about it for now, I’ll get back to ya if I think of anything else.
I rubbed the back of my head with my hand and then decided to call it a day. I began walking out to the dirt road that I came in on and I spotted Applejack walking towards me. UNENDING SENSE OF FEAR RIGHT NOW! Will she talk to me? Will she be sad that that burden was on her shoulders? Why am I so scared? I have to be a manly man now, I am 17 and I still feel like a baby, I feel like an idiot again…ho hum. She is walking right at me, well, here comes my bad pokerface again!
Applejack walked up to me, she looked tired. “Hi Kyle, how are ya doin? Have ah good first day?”
“I did, and I hear that you talked to Dashie about earlier. You don’t have to worry, everything is ok now. We talked about it and everything went alright. I don’t want you to feel bad about it anymore” I said to her.
“That’s great! Ah’m glad it went over so well. Ah’m just sorry that you had ta talk about it so soon. Ah couldn’t take that feelin hangin over ma head. Ah’m sorry Kyle” Applejack said to me before looking down at her hooves. AWWWW man! I was beginning to feel better too, now I have to make AJ feel better! Why do I always have to be the therapist in these situations? Ugh, let’s begin the session of talking about feelings.
I knelt down onto one leg and patted her on the head “Don’t be. Everything is better now and you have no reason to worry about it anymore. I am not mad, and you look like crap right now, you had a long day, go home and get some sleep. I’ll see you in the morning bright and early.”
I stood up and AJ waved me off. I walked off of the farm grounds and began heading for Ponyville. It was still a little light out so I decided to think of something I could do for a while. “I really haven’t spent much time with Twilight, I am sure that she is still bubbling with questions about me and where I came from.”
I decided to go with it and began walking down the dirt road to Ponyville. All the while I was walking my mind was going a mile a minute on something that I had just thought of. I want to buy a house here, not that I don’t like the apartment and all….even with its various disturbances by a grey mailmare. I just want to do it so I have the satisfaction that I could do it. Geez, now I feel like a motivational speaker, why do I make myself feel like weird things so much….it gets annoying, it really does.
I entered the town and began walking slower; I didn’t want to be in a hurry. It kind of felt like autumn now, the air was getting a little nip to it; I didn’t mind it though, it felt soothing. Ok, she is going to probably want to know a lot more about where I came from. I can already feel some more awkward feelings in my future. CURSE YOU STAR WARS MOVIES AND GIVING ME THE FALSE SENSE THAT I CAN SENSE THINGS! Don’t judge me on how that was thought either; I get ahead of myself sometimes. ARGH forget it, back to walking.
I walked a while and Twilights house came into view. “Ok, this is going to be a little fun. At least it won’t be that weird talking about it, frankly because I ALREADY TALKED ABOUT IT SO MUCH ALREADY!” I knocked on the door a few times and waited. I heard the muffled shuffling of little feet. Is it who I think it is…is it really Spike?
A minute later the purple and green dragon that I know and love answers the door. “Hey, you must be that Kyle fella that I heard so much about. I knew you were different…but not that different!” Spike said to me, looking shocked and amazed at the way I look.
I already knew that! “You must be Spike, Twilight said a lot about you. She says you’re an amazing assistant. I know I look funny, I even think I look funny myself” I said to him. You’re lucky I am a nice man that feels happy all of the time, or else I would feel mildly upset by that comment.
Twilight must have heard us talking, because she walked into the room and saw me in the doorway. “Hi Kyle, what are you doing?”
“I just came by to see if you wanted to visit for a little while…maybe talk about where I came from some more or something. I just got off work at AJ’s and was a little bored” I said to the lavender unicorn. I LIED! I am really bored right now! I don’t care what I do, anything is better than sitting around doing nothing like a rock.
Twilight’s face lit up when I said that. I even heard that infamous noise again when she did. I…sense…something is…going…on here. I HATE YOU WILLIAM SHATNER! What with all of your entertaining movies and whatchacallits! I am so stupid right now I amaze myself! “That would be interesting, because I have been looking more into this world of yours and find it to be fascinating! Come in…Spike, you are free to do what you wish tonight. Consider it the night off” Twilight said to me then the purple dragon.
“AWW sweet. See ya around Kyle” and with that Spike ran out the door into the evening air.
“He seems happy. Now what did you have in mind of talking about?” I asked her. PLEASE don’t be about anything bad! I can’t take bad things anymore!
"I have been working on a spell that I want to try out. I was waiting for an opportune time to try it with you, but that just fell right into my hooves” Twilight said as she beamed at me. I am getting scared now. What kind of spell? What does she want to do?
“What is the spell?” I asked dumbfounded.
“It is a spell that lets us go into one of your past days on Earth, we will be invisible and we cannot do anything to alter the course of time while there. We would just be observing” Twilight said to me.
“So…it is kind of like we would be spirits that get to watch the day go by, but we can’t do anything to change it. That sounds like fun actually, I’m in” I said to her. This may actually be fun. I have never ever fathomed reliving one of my days before.
“Yay, we can begin immediately if you want to” Twilight said to me, she was on the verge of bouncing she was so happy. Creepy!
“I’m ready! Let’s do this” I said happily to the lavender mare.
“Let’s go!” Twilight said to me before she enveloped us in a shroud of her magic.
MENTAL NOTE: Only take Twilight to the happy times in my life. No going to days where I am bullied. NO going to days when I am depressed. AND NO going to a day when I watched MLP:FIM! That would not be good for me man…I mean if that were to happen…I would like die. Ok, now I have to have fun with this, but I can’t help feeling ‘that awkward feeling like the one where when you hear yourself on an answering machine and you hate the way your voice sounds’ feelings. OH BOY, I GET TO TAKE A MIND TRIP THROUGH MEMORY LANE! I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE MYSELF! *sarcastic squee*
A/N: Sorry this chapter is short. I have been feeling a little under the weather lately and apparently I have an allergic reaction on my back or something. I will be posting a longer chapter sometime tomorrow. I hope you like the mind fuck you are about to get soon. Sorry for the cliffhanger.
