Chapters
One
You awake early in the afternoon to the ungrateful sound of your alarm clock. As you reach out slowly still half asleep, you attempt to cease the annoying sound. Your hand slams down onto your nearby dresser, extending your fingers you inched your hand towards it. Taking hold of your alarm you ever so gently turn it off, and you wake up.

Your hand retreats back under the warm comfort of your blankets; frowning you shift under your covers as you tried to find a cooler spot. Once you’ve found that one spot you smile as you once again drift off into a nice deep slumber.
You dream about assaulting the Alien Temple Ship as you attempted to fend off the Ethereal invasion with your comrades. Using your psionic powers on a nearby Muton you take control of it and force it to shoot its leader in the face killing it, thus causing the ship to go into a self destruct.
Learning that the ship was going to explode you look to your comrades and tell them to go and that you’ll try to stop it.

Remembering that you have a long day ahead of you at the office, you happily rise up out of bed. Cracking your back you release an audible raspy groan, you wince in pain. Grasping the base of your throat you shake your head as the pain began to subside. Confused you shake it off as if it was nothing; taking your first step of the day onto the floor. You push yourself up off the bed, bending down you reach under your bed to retrieve your slippers.
After you got your comfortable slippers on, you go to your closet to retrieve your red and white checkered morning robes. Once you retrieve your clothing and finish tying the robe to your body. You go and check your alarm clock only to see that you’ve woken one hour earlier than you were supposed to… Well that couldn’t be right now could it? If so why did your alarm clock go off so early? Did you forget to set it back when daylight savings came around?
Realizing that you’re already dressed and that there is no point in going back to bed; you begin to think of what to do. Remembering that you need to restock on some more milk, you come to terms that the best option to do here is to go the local supermarket and get some milk!
Or
The Milk can wait time to see what's going on the Web

Shaking your head you decide that the internet is more important than a good source of calcium… or good tasting coffee for a matter of fact. Sitting down at your desk, you go to boot up your computer. Only to realize it won’t turn on… pushing the button again you notice that it still won’t turn on.

Pushing the button again nothing happens letting out a sigh you think, welp if this won't work maybe I might as well get some milk for breakfast.
Malk is part of a healthy diet!
Or
Four.3
Thinking to yourself that the third time is always a charm you bend over. Biting your lip you pray to some god that this might, just might work. As your finger gently caresses the button, you begin to push on it… Nothing happens.
Did you know Malk is good for exorcisms?
Or
Maybe it'll work if you push it again.

Really!?
You’re really going to do this? You’re seriously just going to sit here and push buttons all day? Do you know how much time and effort I put into this story?! All the finger cramps and tears I placed into it?! Literally it took days!
You do know that there’s no way in Hell that just sitting here pushing an on and off switch is going to progress the story, right? Please tell me how do you find this entertaining? How do you find pushing a button entertaining?
Readers came here to read about a human in Equestria, not a human trying to turn on a computer that’s not even plugged in! If I would’ve said, “You push the on switch, only to find out that the computer wouldn’t even turn on. Wondering why you pull the tower out only to find that it wasn’t even plugged in.” Would you still be here right now pressing this button…? Probably… but I digress.
Hear me out reader; you aren’t going to get anywhere by just sitting here pushing a button. Now please if you could, lets progress the story, now if you could click the top link and let us continue on with the tale.

Telling your comrades to get off the ship, you make a dash for the control sphere. Wrapping your hands around it you use your psionic energy to control the entire ship and launch it into space, not only does it explode and kill you instantly. But your sacrifice didn’t go in vain, because not only did you stop the Ethereal threat you even saved the Earth and actually managed to divert this entire story… Now if you could so kindly please wake up.
Or
Oh you thought you were going to have a choice. Well I'm so deeply sorry, but you're dead at the moment. I'm afraid the only choice you have right now is the top one... now please stop horsing around and click the top button so we can officially get this under way.
