“Things to Know”

Chapter 3 of “New Frequency”

October 7, Monday 12:30 pm

Just 2 minutes in the room and we are back again at this bullshit. It didn’t take too long for Sebastian to keep messing me up like “Heh, PC Mustard Race is better! Miyamoto sucks! Go jump in a lake filled with Rated E games of Nintendo” and et cetera. I just really need a break…

“You know, after all the bullshit I’ve been through trying to adapt to my transformation.” I said, looking at my hands which were slowly turning into hooves. “Let’s play a game…”

“Is it a game where you make puns?” Kyle said.

“Is it a game where you do a rap battle like ‘SUPA HOT FA-’!” Sebastian’s mouth was shut by Aidan.

“No! Only I get to say that, m8. Also…” He said. “Is the game about introducing ourselves?”

“Perfect!” I said.

Finally, we get to know our characters up close and personal… Here we go. So Kyle, according to what he said, he’s a blunt guy on the internet and on real life. He’s chubby like me which I said on the first chapter and other people think he’s cute because of his chubby wubby face. Then there’s Aidan. He’s as tall as me. He’s brown skinned and poofy hair. (I don’t know what to call it?) He likes using internet memes and languages in real life which I find quite annoying. Theres Sebastian. He’s your regular PC Master Race guy. Hates Consoles and treats Gabe N like a God. I don’t respect him that much but no matter what we have to stand together. Theres Brian and Franko, the unbreakable pair. All three of us have youtube accounts. Brian and I are the smarter ones while Franko’s like ‘that guy’. Yeah, you know ‘that guy’. There’s Kenz. I know he has a counterpart but we don’t know where he went. Anyway, Kenz is all about cars. I did say it in the first chapter, right? He’s dark skinned, as tall as me, and for some reason, is all about female celebrity singers. Weird, as if he’s gay or something. I don’t believe that’s true, I just assume quickly. Anyway, that’s all I have to say about them after this game. I went out of the room to write more about my journal but unsuspectedly, Kyle noticed and left the room too. Looks like Kyle’s being all suspicious of me holding this book for too long. He has that look on his face, the face of pure suspicion. I swear he’s the first person to see me holding this book. I’m scared, I mean… The first chapter wasn’t just the first page, it was just a story, an update of what was happening… What if he finds out my deepest and darkest secrets and weird fetishes… I hope I can get out of this.

“Oh! Hi Kyle!” I grinned as wide as I can, hiding my book from his sight. It caught his sight already. I was too late! “Wonderful weather we’re having… right?” I said while my grin turned into a frown. I was sweating raindrops. I mean, they were like rapids in a river. “Kyle, I’d love to talk to you right now but I need some privacy.”

“What’s in the book? Some secrets?”

“Nope, just a recap of what just happened a few hours ago…”

“Oh, can I see how well you wrote it?”

“NO! I’m not telling!”

“Oh come one, please!” He said, giving me his puppy dog eyes. “Jwust wa pweek!”

Of Course, how could I ever resist his puppy dog eyes. I mean, it’s even more cuter that he’s turning into a pony. Anyways, I gave him my journal, only showing the parts that happened. He had no reaction, he just said. “It’s nice that you can write down things that fast. It’s like an autobiography or something like that.” And then he went back to the room. Now that the coast is clear, I grabbed my journal and hid it.

I grabbed my cellphone and saw that mom texted me. It said in my native language, “Papunta na kami diyan, traffic sa EDSA.” which meant that ‘We’re going there, it’s traffic.’.

“Okay, now my parents are going here, I better tell the news.” I then went back to the room and told them what my plan is.

Again, even more explaining. I told them that we are going to Chicago when my mom goes here, I will ask her to go to Chicago because of two guys who caused this. I got a few what’s and huh’s from the crowd but it’s for us to turn back to normal. It’s all or nothing… Did I use that quote right? Dammit! So, we waited for an hour and such but I tend to get tired easily when I focus my mind on things like writing down things for hours. So last page before I take a short nap.

*ehem* There are very few things you should know about me. One, I have fetishes that are kept secret. I wrote all of it down on my journal so if anybody dares look at my journal… I’ll do things that I shouldn’t do. Two, I am a gamer. Well, duh! I’m a geek, what else. Three, I am easily distracted. With beautiful girls? Nah, technology is my game. I easily go to the technological part of stores, looking at how far we’ve gone in technology. That’s all you have to know. Signing off.

There are times when you dream about weird shit. Well I’m full of them. You know, have you ever seen Shao Kahn fight Duke Nukem on some kind of multiverse with some kind of anime girl? I don’t know, man BUT the extreme shit came into view when I was suddenly teleported to a planet where they worship the almighty ‘SNICKERS’ god and their slogan is: ‘Hungry? Grab a Snicker’. I have to agree with them, Snicker is good. Anyways, after 2 hours of being in a nap, I woke up to saw that my hands are now fully ponified. I touched my face and upper torso. Glad they’re still in tact. I still had my watch on. The watch read: 3:35 PM. Time flies so fast, you know. Like if you never had any fun with your parents and they die, you’d be sad and depressed! But I’m just saying that, because in reality, my parents and I love each other. Anyways, back to reality. My friends were already flying and using magic. I stood up and saw Kyle who was 74% pure pony.

“So, Kyle… How’re your wings?”

“Pretty fine actually? It’s amazing I could fly!” He said as he flew while exclaiming some yahoo’s and yeeha’s.

‘Okay, so I’m thinking way too deep in this whole pony transformation thing… I mean, I feel like… I don’t want to turn back.’ I thought while looking how happy they were in their pony forms. ‘Well, to be fair, all of them aren’t anti-bronies in any way. They just aren’t interested into the show’.

“Kyle, I’ve been thinking…” I said “Do you still want to turn back?” He just gave me a smile and said.

“If I can still live and have fun with my friends then turning back is just a choice.” He said. “But I mean, I can fly! Who doesn’t want to fly?”

“Kyle, I have no wings, with or without Red Bull.” I said. “I do have magic though, so what’s the point of going to Chicago?”

“Probably a way to go the PonyTown.”

“Ponyville.”

“Oh, so that’s what it’s called. In the land of Equ-something.”

“Equestria. But you may have a point here, Kyle. We can go to Equestria!”

“But how about our Moms, Dads and Siblings?” Kyle said. “They couldn’t join us, you know much more about the show and we aren’t that interested into the show.”

“Well, why don’t you be interested? It’s a good show. It’s an easy way to know what’s right and wrong and how to solve the hardships in friendships.”

“Sounds what a guidance counselor’s show.”

“Oh, it doesn’t just end there. There are episodes like the Changeling invasion where they beat up shape shifting creatures, then there’s Tirek battle, then there’s the upcoming episode. I saw the trailer… And that’s pure communism.”

“Oh, really? Heh.” Kyle said with a light chuckle. “I’d better get going. Aidan wants to learn how to fly. See ya’!” He dashed off quickly.

‘Wait, if he can fly, I can use magic.’ I said focusing energy. ‘Teleport to… the… room’ my face was sweating and…

“Damn! M8! What the heck?!” I then opened my eyes to see I was in Kenz’ room. Kyle was stretching Aidan’s wings, on the other side, Frank and Brian were just eating fried chicken (racism not intended) and Kenz was there, reading books about sports cars.

“I did it!” I said “Aidan, I learned MAGIC!” I said to him.

“Oh, come on. Everyone gets to learn their moves while I can’t fly.” Aidan whined. “*sigh* I think you designed these bat wings pretty poorl-”

“Nah, man. I can fly easily. We’re bat ponies too.” Brian said.

“Well, you know what that means Aidan? MOAR PRACTICE!”

“Okay, fine. I’ll practice…”

Damn, I was really worn out by that one spell. Gosh I feel extremely tired. I yawned then I slept on the floor.

Signing off…

        October 7, 4:00 PM

So that’s what I’m naming it, huh? New Frequency? Seems good to me. Anyways, I fell asleep and now I woke up to what seems to be a ca- Oh… this is the brand new car mom bought. It’s big now that I’m a pony! Wait a minute…

I inspected myself and touched my face…. 85% pony. Beside me were Aidan, Kenz, Kyle, Sebastian, Brian, Frank and two other ponies. One is a fully grown mare, and one was…. Oooooooh nooooooooo. All of them were fast asleep. I may sleep a lot in this book but trust me, I’m a light sleeper. So the humans in the car was my nanny, my mom, my brother and my father.

“Mom?” I said.

“Yes, Macky?” (The other nickname.)

“Oh, you’re there.” I said. “But, mom, I have to ask you this. We have to go to Chicago to fix our problem.”

“It’s not just you and your friend’s problem. We have to fix a lot of people.” I then looked outside of the window.

It was people uhm.. Ponies I mean. Everyone outside were ponies! Jesus.

        “So, do you agree?” I said.

        “Opo naman, anak.” which meant “Of course, kid.”

        “Are your friends awake?” She said.

        “No... “

        “How about Phil?”

        Yes, I get to talk about him. My cousin Phil. Since his name was the start of ‘Philippines’, his hair color is the same color of the Philippine flag. The OC’s name is Dream Kick. His cutie mark is a football ball…. Wait did I get to talk about my friend’s cutie marks? Okay….

        So mine is a sun with stars shining, Kyle’s is money because Kyle’s rich, but he’s a nice guy. Next up is Aidan, it’s a crescent moon. Brian and Franko’s have similar cutie marks. Brian has a bright yellow Full moon and Frank has a bright blue Full moon. Kenz is an emerald. So with that, I shall continue.

        “Ph-phil? Phil’s here? And that must mean that the other one was-”

        “Pauline..”

        Pauline is the oldest cousin. She is 21 years old and her brother is Phil. The OC she is now was Sunflower Blossom. Her cutie mark is obviously a sunflower. You might think she’s a gardener but you’re WRONG! She’s a medic.

        “Huh, I’ll go sleep now, mom.” I lied as I crouched down with my bag.

I have magic right, that means I can still use my phone. It has snake, rapid roll and bounce. Well, I’ll be here for a few hour or minutes so it’s best to end it here.
