The OC Story
Chapter 38: Gustavo and Rarity's girls night out.
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe group heard a tran and saw two members in each group walking away from the train.
"GUSTAVO!!!" all the O.C.s yelled
"RARITY!!!" The rest of the Mane 6 yelled. They all ran towards their team member, surrounding the two.
"Spike?" Kane asked, peering over the others
"Finally!" Spike yelled "Someone notices m- A PRINCE!!!" Spike bowed down to Kane.
"Is that a Pip-Buck and a recharger rifle?" Doug asked
"It is." Gustavo replied
"Lucky!!!"
"Where's Russell?"
"Whaere have YOU TWO BEEN!?!?!?" Everyone asked
"Well," Rarity replied
Gustavo sat on a chair while Rarity hung pictures of Duskshine on a while, next to another, quite attractive looking stallion.
"Aren't they marvelous?" She asked
"Who?" Gustavo asked
"Why Duskshine and Trender Hoof of course! They both make me feel like a young mare again."
"Really?"
"Why yes! Can't you feel it inside you as well?"
"...okay, Duskshine is actually Kane in a flipped gender form of Twilight, and who is Trender Hoof exactly?" Before she could answer, the door opened, revealing another character that's famous in the show... but for all the wrong reasons.
"Spike?" They both asked
"Hey Rarity," Spike replied "Who's this you're hanging out with?"
"Why Spikey Wikey, this is Gustavo, he's one of the heroes that helped us ponies and Humans to work as a whole."
"Really? So... are you a human?"
"Yes," Gustavo replied "and no. It's a bit confusing."
"No need to lay it on me then. What are you doing, Rarity?"
"Just admiring my new crush." Rarity replied. Spike looked at the posters of Duskshine and was a bit creeped out.
"You love... Twilight?"
"This isn't Twilight, that'd be weird, but this is Duskshine!!!"
"Dusk who?"
"Twilight and one of my close acquaintances switched bodies," Gustavo replied "but it also switched genders to said body."
"So... Twilight is in your friend's body that turned into a mare, and he is in Twilight's body that turned it into a stallion?"
"That's it."
"Whoa. Dude, that's creepy."
"Tell me about it."
"But what will I do?" Rarity and Spike asked at the same time, unaware of what the other was saying. "I can't let my crush go! If it does happen, I'll be Doomed! DOOMED!!!" Gustavo gave a large questionable look to the two.
"Quit whining fellows," Gustavo said "How about this: we all go shopping!"
"Shopping?" Rarity asked sniffling a bit
"Yeah, In... Manehatten!!!"
"Manehatten? But that's far & expensive."
"Not with me. Remember my latest adventure?"
"...Oh! The treasure!?!?"
"Yep!!!"
"Well then, count me in!!!"
"Same thing here!!!" Spike said "Anything for you, Rarity!!!"
"Oh Spike, you are such a dear, To the train station!!!"
It took them a few moments, but with train and treasure, they made it Manehatten. Appropriately, The song "Girls just wanna have Fun" began to play on the loudspeakers, and they began their shopping spree!!! With so many stuff including dresses, books on design, shoes, some snacks, and all carried by Spike, nothing could've been much better!!! The three headed into a building.
"Where are we going?" Spike asked, breathing heavily while carrying all their merchandise
"This is something for Gustavo," Rarity replied "You'll enjoy this!"
"I will?" Gustavo asked
"No need to Deny me, I know it will work!" They entered the building and saw a row of dresses.
"What's happening?"
"Oh, you'll be showing off my dresses in a Fashion show!!!"
"What!?!?"
"Oh don't worry, these are my top of the line dresses, and you, I know they're going to love you! You are the only one that can pull these dresses off... even if you are a man in a mare's body!!! Now Go!!! Be the Picture Perfect Pony you were meant to be!!!"
"...Arlight. For you!!!"
"Yes!!! Now put this on." Rarity threw a dress at Gustavo. Gustavo put it on: It looked the same dress Rarity wore in the Canterlot wedding, but having much brighter colors than the original. Gustavo stepped onto the stage: hundreds of flashing cameras blinded him when he stepped out, but he adjusted and walked up with his head up high. He could see Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, Fancy Pants, and Filthy Rich sitting together, applauding at him. The crowd cheered loudly as he walked to the end of the stage. It stopped immediately, as the roof shook. Gustavo stopped and looked above: the roof ripped off and a UFO floated above them!!!
"REALLY!?!?!?" Gustavo yelled "ALIENS!?!?!?" The UFO opened below, and many squid looking mechs came down for the UFO, zapping at the citizens below. "Oh, the Aliens from Chicken Little!!! HOW NICE!!!"
"Hide!!!" Spike and Rarity yelled
"Alien invasion!!!" Some citizens yelled. Rarity hid under some tables with Spike, shivering out of fear. Gustavo, with his center of attention ruined, sat in the open, not even caring what the aliens were doing. He watched the chaos happen and, in the corner of his eye, saw the same orange alien entering a Toy Factory. One of the Alien Mechs came up to him & held him upside down. Gustavo didn't do anything, but stared angrily. Out of fear, the Alien zapped Gustavo. Gustavo saw himself in a Zero Gravity black room, with celebrities including The Living Tombstone, Mic the Microphone, WoodenToaster, Solrac, Justin Beiber as a pony, The Entire Star Wars Cast, Lassie the Dog, a real horse, and Chuck Norris himself. A pair of 3 eyes appeared to them
"Which one of you took our son!?!?!?" It asked in a deep voice.
"You guys," Gustavo said, still angry "don't you remember what happened last time?"
"Who are you!?!?!?"
"I am Gustavo. I saw you one time, and you left your son on accident."
"You Fool! I didn't do that!!!!"
"Yes you did."
"No I didn't!!!"
"Yes you did!"
"SILENCE!!! YOU WILL BE EXECUTED UNTIL WE FIND OUR SON!!!"
"Maybe you should check the Toy factory. You'll most likely find him there."
"Are you betting with your life!?!?!?"
"I am."
"FOOL!!! If we do, somehow find him in this 'toy factory', what will you get in return?"
"I'll name it when it's over." Gustavo's and the Alien's eyes locked on to each other, staring into each other's souls.
"Honey?" A female voice said, normal sounding with a sigh of relief. Another 3 eyes came up "we found our son!!!"
"Really? Where was he?"
"He was in the Toy factory as this equine female said"
"...Really? He was in there?"
"He was."
"...Oh... Darn it." In a flash, Gustavo, and all the other Celebrities, landed back on the city's floor, where all the mechs began to help rebuild the city. Two mechs came up to Gustavo, opening and revealing the 'Chicken Little' Alien parents.
"Sorry about that," the father said "nearly forgot about him... again."
"Don't mind him," the wife said "he's a bit stubborn, but lovable."
"It's alright," Gustavo said "now about my reward."
"Your award?" the father asked "Well... We have this invention that fits around your specie's legs." The father said, pulling out a Pip-Buck 3000 "And this fully operational Recharger rifle with some repair kits."
"I'LL TAKE IT!!!" Gustavo yelled "I'll take both!!!"
"Alright then. Enjoy it." They went back into their mechs & heeded to their space ship, where, in a flash, it disappeared in space. Gustavo put on the Pip-buck with excitement and holstered the Recharger Rifle on his back. Rarity and Spike came running.
"Oh my!!!" Rarity yelled, looking at Gustavo "Gustavo, you're fine!!!"
"I am. My Pip-Buck tells me my health is 300 out of 300."
"Your what?" Spike asked
"A PipBuck is a miniature, portable, Terminal-like device issued to every inhabitant of a Stable once they are deemed old enough to start work, typically coinciding with a pony getting their cutie mark. They are worn on a foreleg, just above the hoof, and consist of a metal cuff with a screen. A blend of late-war magic and scientific advances, a PipBuck is able to monitor the wearer's health, personal inventory, and correspondence, and can be used as a reference when building, repairing, or attempting to interact with equipment or technology. PipBucks also have limited magical functions, such as the Eyes Forward Sparkle (or E.F.S for short), Stable-Tec Arcane Targeting Spell (or S.A.T.S for short) and the ability to automatically scan the wearer's surroundings to determine threats or terrain. It also includes a lamp, radio receiver, geiger counter, and a short-range transponder that can be used to track its location. Watch!" Gustavo switched to a radio, where the news came on, talking about what just happened.
"That's... interesting," Rarity commented, unaware of what Gustavo was talking about. "But I think we should get back & find your friends, we have been gone a long time."
"Hold on," Gustavo said "I feel something in my mane." Gustavo shook his head and a ponified version of the Fallout-Boy from Fallout series, came down, with the word 'Luck' on it. "A BOBBLE HEAD!!! My luck has increased!!!
"What?" Spike and Rarity asked
"These bobble heads help me progress... don't worry, I just Want the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. ones, none of the others."
"How can we tell it's a special one?" Spike asked
"There's 7 out there: Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, Agility, and, the one I have, Luck."
"Really?" Rarity asked "Well here, I've had this in my house." She pulled out a Bobble Head with 'Charisma' on it. Gustavo took it from her.
"Thank you!" Gustavo replied
"Should we head back?"
"Nah, we need to help rebuild."
"...Fine, but I think they already go it." Rarity said. Everything was fixed, as if nothing happened.
"This sucks." Gustavo said "No what?"
"I have some cards." Spike said.
"Cards?" Gustavo asked. "Bobbleheads... Pipbuck... LAS PEGASUS!!!"
"Las Pegasus?" Rarity asked
"We're going to Las Pegasus Rarity and Spike!!!"
"But that's far!" Spike whined a bit "And it's getting late."
"He's right," Rarity said "He'll be tired when we get there."
"Don't worry," Gustavo said "Spike can sleep on the way and in the hotel room, I got this, I still have a lot of loot left over."
"...Very well! We will head over there! Come along now Spike!!!"
"Wake me up in the morning." Spike yawned a bit. "If Twilight's home and she gets mad, I'm blaming both of you. They got on a train and headed Southwest, passing Canterlot and Ponyville along the way in a few hours, just as night landed on them. The city light's greeted their eyes first, and the city was bursting with energy, as ponies and humans weren't fitting each other, but gambling inside eatery casino they could see. They went to the MGM (Metro Golden Mare) Casino and got a room there for a week. Spike was snoring loudly, but they set him in his own bed and closed the door behind them.
"Well then," Rarity said "What is the first thing we should do?"
"Are you kidding me!" Gustavo yelled "Let's do everything!!!" They both ran to the casino floors, playing a bunch of games, winning some, losing most, and spending some of their time drinking. The show they both attended was a music duel between the Blue Man Group and the Blue Mare Group. Exciting in a lot of ways, but they kept drinking until their eyesight was blurry. Rarity and Gustavo hit some human, who proceeded to fight back, but another pony helped them, soon, a huge brawl came between Humans , ponies, and other species. Without any time to react, they both passed out on the floor. Gustavo and Rarity awoke in their hotel, with what looks like Spike holding on to their manes. He was snoring loudly, but still held on to them.
"Spike?" Gustavo asked. Spike snorted awake.
"Mommy?" he asked "oh... what's up?"
"Did you take us back to the hotel?" Rarity asked
"I did. I saw you two in the fight below and had to rescue you!"
"And Gustavo?"
"Yes... including him."
"How Noble."
"It took a long time to get you here on my own, especially the bag you were carrying."
"Bag?" Gustavo asked "What bag?"
"The one you have." Gustavo turned and saw he was wearing a bag. With a budge from his muzzle, he opened it and it had many bits in it!!!
"Holy Guacamole!!!" Spike yelled
"Indeed!" The two mares said.
"We should head back to ponyville, Twilight could be home."
"Agreed!" They all ran out of Las Pegasus, heading to the train station. Landing inside, they traveled back to Ponyville. They saw the rest of the group in town, right after counting their loot: 10000 bits!!! They exited and went back to the group.
