"AHHHHHHH!" Rainbow, in my body, screams for a good half a minute straight. I just give her a deadpan stare as I've already calmed down from my initial shock. Being the smartass that I am, I look down at my nonexistent watch and yawn.

"Are you done!?" I yell in annoyance as she finally stops to take in deep breaths. "Screaming isn't going to solve anything!"

"Are you bucking kidding!? I have every right to scream!" Rainbow attempts to stand up, only to fall face first onto the floor. I swear if she destroys my body, so help me...

"Would you just calm down!? Its not the end of the world! Twilight said the potion would wear off in twenty four hours, so get a fucking grip!" My voice sounds so much less harsh and serious considering it is now high pitched and cracks every other word.

"I'm trying! I can't even stand up without falling over! How do you even do this?" Rainbow attempts multiple time to stand on two legs, only to fall and grunt, signifying that she just hurt MY body again.

"Okay, how about we calm down, and help each other adjust to this." I try to say calmly and rationally. "We just have to survive a day without killing ourselves, and it starts with learning how to control our bodies.

"O-Okay. You first. How do I stand like this?" Rainbow finally got up, but has to lean against a wall with both hands to stay upright.

"Think of your torso as your center or gravity. Wanna go forward? You'll have to lean slightly forward to do that. Opposite for backwards. If you just want to stand still, you'll have to counteract any mistakes in your balance."

"What the hay does any of that mean?"

"Just... clear you mind and let your body do the rest." Rainbow slowly lets go of the wall. Once she is standing upright, with both arms out, she tries to stay still. She stumbles a little, but quickly readjusts herself.

"Okay, how do I walk?"

"Its just one foot in front of the other. Simple as that really."

"Okay..." Its still weird to see and hear my own body talking to me. Anyway, she takes one step forward, only to fall down on top of me. I lift up with a grunt and roll her off my back. I actually feel REALLY strong. I guess that comes natural for a pony, and the fact that Rainbow is so athletic. She gets up and tries again. One step, then another, and another. She is a bit wobbly, but after just a minute or two of walking in a circle, I'd say she has it down tight.

"Alright... this isn't so bad." She mumbles as she looks down at me. "Wow, I really do look amazing. Never seen myself from this angle."

"I see your ego is still a part of you. Now, help me walk. I think I understand how to stay standing."

"Okay, it goes front right, then back left, then front left, then back right. Easy."

"Not easy! I'm not used to having four legs, none of which have toes for balance!" I say right before taking my first step, or attempting to at least. I end up moving both front legs at the same time, and falling on my side like an idiot. I get up and try again. It takes me longer than Rainbow, but I finally get down walking and even running slowly.

"Uh, oh... this could be a problem..." Rainbow says as she looks down.

"Whats a problem?" I ask as I stare at myself in the mirror. Still creeps me out to see Rainbow's body staring back.

"You, I mean, I have to go to the bathroom..." She says nervously. I've never seen myself blush, but there is a first time for everything.

"Um, then just go? You've already seen my junk like three times, just go and get it over with. I guess I could use it too, though I don't know how to sit on a toilet with a tail."

"Just push it to the side, and try not to fall in." Rainbow says as she rounds the corner into the hallway. I hop up onto my bed, and try to pick up my phone which fell out of my pocket when I passed out. I look down at it, and notice the dried blood on my fur between my nose and lips. How did I not notice that yet? Come to think of it, my body has dried blood on it too. Hopefully Rainbow will be smart enough to clean it off. Anyway, I try to use the phone, but to no avail. I can manage to push the home button which brings up the lock screen, but the touchscreen doesn't respond to hooves apparently. Now I finally get why Rainbow hates depending on me for simple shit like this, it sucks! I manage to unlock the phone using my tongue, which is the only part of Rainbow's body that the damn thing detects, and open the contacts app. I can't see half my screen because it is blurred by pony spit, but I guess I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth... Pun definitely intended .

I scroll down my contacts, and call one of the two people I know who wouldn't completely freak out in a situation like this.

"Yeeellow!" The voice on the other end says once they've answered.

"Alex? Um, are you free by any chance? I kinda need some help."

"Rainbow? What are you doing on Matt's phone? And what do you need help with." Shit, forgot our voices changed too.

"Oh, um... there as an accident, and... oh just fucking get over here!"

"Whoa! Rainbow, I've never heard you swear before, whats up with that?"

"Just get to my house and I'll explain to you alright!?" I hang up abruptly and fall on my side with a sigh. This is going to be harder than I thought. It took like ten minutes just to call one person! Wait, ten minutes? Shouldn't Rainbow be done going to the bathroom by now? What gives?

I hop off the bed and make my way to the hallway. I enter the bathroom, which thankfully I can open because it has a handle instead of a doorknob, and stop in my tracks at what I see. I deadpan at Rainbow who is sitting there on the toilet, just looking down at my... yeah, nevermind, you get the point.

"What the hell are you doing? Stop staring at my crotch and get up, I need to piss."

"Wha?" Rainbow snaps out of it and looks down at me. "Oh, uh sorry... just instincts kicked in I guess. Just because I'm in your body, doesn't mean I'm not attracted to you."

"Holy shit Rainbow... Whatever, just get up. I need to go!" I can feel my bladder filling up by the second. How much does this girl drink anyway?

"Oh, right." She quickly jumps up and pulls up my shorts. She goes over to wash her hands in the sink, and I quickly jump on the toilet. Its almost second nature to pull down my pants, so when I try to, I'm disappointed to find I don't have any.

"Um, don't you want some privacy?" Rainbow asks as she keeps washing her hands in the sink. "Man these things are weird." She says as she wiggles my fingers around under the running water.

"Its your body, I don't see why I should have to hide it. Like I said earlier, I've seen this before, so there's nothing to hide." I say as I jab a hoof down at my nether regions. "How the hell do I work these muscles?" I can't believe I'm actually having trouble just trying to go to the bathroom.

"Just relax and let it flow." Rainbow says with a laugh. Seriously? That's your advice? Nothing on how to move the proper muscles to- Oh wait, yep there it goes.

"I'm gonna... leave you to that." She quickly rushes back into my bedroom. Son of a bitch, she left the door open, and I'm still sitting here. It would be just my luck that my mom would walk by just ten seconds later!

"Um, Rainbow dear, shouldn't you close the door before doing that?" She asks in a motherly tone.

"Oh, uh, right! Sorry about that!" I gotta keep my cool, don't wanna blow my cover. My mom would flip her shit if she found out about this, which she most likely will eventually. She closes the door after smiling and shaking her head, probably thinking that Rainbow was just being an idiot. Jokes on you mom! It was your son being the idiot! Take that!

I walk back into my room, not bothering to wash my hooves or anything... Not like I can reach the sink anyway. Simple shit like that makes me feel bad for yelling at Rainbow earlier. Now that I'm in her shoes, I realize just how hard it is for her to live in a world built for humans. I really should apologize about that, but now is not the time. I hear Alex's car pull up before I can even get back to my room. I rush downstairs, and wait at the door for Alex.

"This... is demeaning..." I mumble to myself as I sit there and wait for the door to open like a fucking dog. Thankfully its unlocked, so Alex can let himself in when I yell at him to come in.

"Sup Rainbow, wheres Matt?" He asks as he looks around the living room.

"Um, I'm right here." I say as I wave a hoof in front of him. Damn, this would be so much easier if I could fly. Too bad I have no idea how to do that.

"I said Matt, not you Rainbow." He says with a smile as he ruffles my hair and walks past me. I stop him in his tracks with my next choice of words.

"Oh, but Alexander, I am Matthew." I say with a horrible British accent, Rainbow's raspy voice only making it worse.

"What? Knock it off Rainbow." He says with a light laugh.

"But seriously, I am Matt. We switched bodies." I say with a deadpan stare.

"Okay, yeah right. If you actually are Matt, you would know something that only HE would know." He says as he crosses his arms and gives me a smirk. Shit, gotta think of something... Oh, I got it!

"When you were seven, you got stuck in one of those water drains on the side of the road after falling off your skateboard. Only I know this, as well as your parents and like three firemen who had to save your sorry ass." I finish with a cocky smirk. If that doesn't convince him, nothing will.

"Holy... Matt, dude, that is you! What the hell happened!?" He runs over and picks me up under my armpits. (Or are they leg pits?)

"Hey, whoa! Hands off my girlfriend's body dude!"

"Sorry, you're just so adorable." He says with that voice that you use to talk to little kids and animals. You know, the one that makes you sound like a complete idiot.

"Just put me down." I say with a laugh, trying to keep to happy atmosphere going. Rainbow comes down the stairs and stops when she sees us.

"Ah! Alex, what are you doing here!?"

"It would appear that this one," He nods his head at me, who had still yet to put down. "Called me and said I had to, and I quote, fucking get over here. How's Matt's body treating you Rainbow?"

"Y-You told him!?" She says, surprised for some reason. Why wouldn't I tell him?

"How long are you guys like this?" Alex asks as he finally puts me down.

"About twenty three hours and forty minutes." I say as I try to fix some of the feathers on my wing which are now uncomfortable as all hell. "Great, you messed up my feathers..."

"Isn't tonight New Years?" Alex asks, a smile growing on his face. What is he up to?

"Um, yeah, why?" I ask, curious as to what hes getting at.

"Well, that's going to be one hell of an awkward New Year's kiss!"
