Another Chance at Life
Chapter 9: 9. Getting The Word Out
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI walked back to Ponyville thinking about what had just happened. So my phone has possibly been manifested by the element of chaos itself. What else could possibly go wrong today? On second thought, I don’t want to know anymore, it will probably show its ugly face to me anyways.
I walked around the town looking for somepony that would know where Twilight was. She wasn’t at her house so that means she must have listened to me and got away from her studies. For once she actually listens to somepony when they say that she needs to get away from her studies. And of course something important happens right after I tell her that. I hate my judgment, it needs to get thrown away like curdled milk.
I managed to find Fluttershy after a few more sweeps around the town. Finally, I thought that I would never find one of my friends. I walked up to the yellow Pegasus “Hi Fluttershy, have you seen Twi around? I think I know what is going on with all of these weird things happening.” Should I tell her that my phone I found in my bag was laughing at me and insulting me and well, just being a pain in the butt in general? No I think I’ll wait till I find Twilight to tell her that.
“Oh h-hi Kyle, yeah I saw her. She said she was going to see Rarity.” Fluttershy said as she smiled shyly and looked around.
“Thank you Fluttershy. I think that Twi needs to hear this” I said as I started to turn around. Hmm, I think Fluttershy deserves to hear what I tell Twilight. I better bring her along. I just had another moment where I was full to the brim with kindness, YAY. “Fluttershy? Do you want to come along with me to see Twilight?”
“S-sure, I’ll come along” Fluttershy said to me. Ok now instead of just being alone, I managed to become part of the dynamic duo in going to see Twilight. Since Fluttershy is the element of kindness and I am also full to the brim with it, we need to come up with a name. I GOT IT! We will be called the Collaborators of Kindness, where we literally kill you with kindness. I am a genius; my mind just came up with a good superhero duo name and slogan in the blink of an eye. I smiled at the thought of me and Fluttershy in matching superhero outfits *Squee*. There is that sound again.
Me and Fluttershy began walking towards Rarity’s boutique. We were quiet as we walked, mostly because of her being so quiet to begin with. Fluttershy…Y U NO START A CONVERSATION WITH ME? We finally made it to the front of Rarity’s home and we stood there for a moment.
“Ok here we go” I said as I walked up the stars and to the door. I knocked on it a few times and waited. I swear to god, if she says “Oh hello darling” I will ask Derpy to come over for a visit. After a few minutes of waiting and feeling like there wasn’t even anypony home the door opened.
“Oh hello darling” Rarity said to me as I stood there. She said it exactly like I thought she would! Well, next time I see Derpy I’ll be sending her over to give you some bad luck. “What can I do for you?”
“I was actually looking for Twilight. I have some information on the little situation that is going on right now, and I think she would like to hear it. Fluttershy said she might be here.” I said to her.
“Yes, she had shown up a little while ago. Please come in” Rarity said to me and Fluttershy. We walked in and she shut the door. Twilight walked out from another room and walked up to us.
“Hi Kyle, you needed to tell me something?” Twilight asked me as I stood there collecting my thoughts for how I was going to tell her what had happened to me. Ok
1. Phone was laughing at me.
2. Phone started to mock me.
3. I tried to break it to little success.
4. I tried to throw it into the pond, but it grew arms and legs and ran into the forest.
5. It said “Get ready for the chaos to begin.”
“Yes, I think I know what is making all of these strange things happen. I went home and found that a phone I had in my bag was laughing at me. This is an inanimate object and as far as I know inanimate objects can’t laugh at you. I took it out and it started to mock me, so I tried breaking it. It wouldn’t stop laughing and mocking me so I dropped it out my window and it still continued to laugh at me when it hit the ground. I grabbed it and took it to the pond where I was going to throw it into the water. When I threw it it began to glow white and it flew to the other side of the pond. It somehow grew arms and legs and stood on the other side of the pond. It said to me “You haven’t seen the last of me Kyle. Get ready for some chaos to begin.” Then it ran off into the woods.” I said as I looked at her.
She was looking at me with a mixture of confusion and thought. “No, we locked him up in a barrier. Could it be that he broke out again?” Twilight whispered aloud. I don’t think anyone other than Discord could bring inanimate objects to life to insult me. I still want to break that stupid phone into over 9000 pieces. It will be a consolation prize if I manage to find it again.
“If what you’re saying is true, I need to get a letter out to Celestia right away to tell her what you found.” Twilight said finally. She was looking stressed again. Oh boy, incoming low level of tolerance to anything but what is related to the situation.
“I am sure what I saw is true. I still have the conversations burned into my mind.” Maybe if I find the phone I will give it to Derpy as a birthday present. She would probably break it, and if she did manage to do so I would thank her for doing so.
“Then I will go back home immediately to send a letter to the princess. Thank you for the information Kyle; it will be a lot of help.” Twilight began walking towards the door and then stopped. She turned around and faced me once more. What did I do now? Did she finally remember the small comedic aspect of my last sentence to her and now she is going to yell at me for it. Where’s the blindfold and cigar? “On second thought, you better come along with me. I will have you write what you know to the princess herself. It would be better if she read it from the witness.”
NO IT WOULDN’T! It would turn my brain into jelly if I have to do that. I don’t want to get sent to the moon if she doesn’t believe me and thinks I just trolled her. Then I just had another thought “One of these days Kyle, one of these days…BAM…BOOM…straight to the moon! DO NOT WANT!!!!!
My better judgment got the best of me “Ok.” I walked with her out the door looking to the floor like an idiot. Well here comes that do not pass go and collect 200 dollars feeling again. And I was at boardwalk too! We got outside and began walking towards her house. I looked up at the sky. I tried looking for the moon and when I found it the gears in my head popped out of their placement from the overload of strange.
Up in the sky the moon had magically grown a mouth and was sticking its tongue out at Ponyville. I can’t take it anymore! I am going to go crazy soon if anything else happens. Apparently when I crashed my car into the tree at Crazy town, when I crawled out and was hit by an oncoming bicyclist. I can just feel the tire mark on my back. “Umm Twi?
Why is the moon sticking its tongue out at us? Does it not like the calm town we have here?” I can’t control the hints of funny in my words. Damn it.
She looked up and saw the moon doing what I said. She lowered her head and shook it. “I am starting to have no doubt that this is all Discords doing. Come on we better hurry.”
We began to move faster and we finally came to her house. We walked through the door and she immediately used her magic to get a parchment and a quill. She levitated them over to me and I grabbed them. A Quill? What am I in Shakespearian times? I don’t know how to write with one of these! It’d be better to just scratch the words on a rock with another rock than to use one of these things.
“You can begin when you are ready.” Twilight said to me in a ‘I’m only inches away from snapping…do it’ tone. Fine, I’ll do it. Just don’t kill me.
I took the parchment and quill over to a table and dipped the quill in some ink. Well at least the History Channel taught me one useful thing; how to dip a quill into ink. I put the quill onto the paper and began to write my explanation. Let’s just say that my writing with a quill is 3 times as bad as RD’s. How can they write with this thing? It’s like trying to write with a broken pen that has no ink left in it.
After I finished my letter to the princess, which by the way made me feel like I had become Twilight for a day, I gave the letter and quill back to Twilight. “I hope she can read my handwriting. I guess I need to practice using quills.”
“You could have used your pen seeing as it works with ink” Twilight said to me in a now calm tone. ARE YOU SERIOUS! I COULD HAVE USED MY PEN! ARRRGGGHHH! Curse you Twilight and waiting till the last minute to tell me this.
“What do we do now?” I said trying to keep myself from going over and strangling her.
“Go do something for a little while. I’ll come get you when I get a reply.” Twilight replied to me.
“Before I go, where’s Spike? I thought he was the only one who could get letters to the princess?” I asked her.
“Oh he went out to do some errands for me. He will be back later. I can send the letter with a spell I know.” Twilight said to me in an ‘I’m smarter than you ‘deal with it’ tone.
Ugh, you bore me now. I am going to go walk around and laugh at all of the stupid things happening now. Bye.
I left her house and walked around the town for a good long time. I like a little chaos, it makes me laugh and my brain turn to soup.
