It was dark outside some kind of a abandoned building. Outside on what appeared to be a spaceship, were very odd reptilian creatures lowly growling near the ship. There was also one of the reptilian creatures on the spaceship. The surface of the ground was hard to see, since there appeared to be water flooding it a little since it was raining outside. 

However, at this moment, a person in some kind of hazmat suit, came out of the front doors of the abandoned building with some kind of basket in their arms.

The person in one of the hazmat suits appeared to be wearing a blue hazmat with a hockey mask symbol in the center of the hazmat's suit torso. The back of the hazmat suit had black air tanks. The hazmat suit's visor also had a hockey mask symbol, but it was smaller to be in the same height of the visor.

"*-nt* *Pant* OH MY GOSH!!!" Shouted the man in the blue hazmat suit as he barged out the two doors with a basket full of bottles in his hands. "I BARELY MA-" 

He couldn't even finish his sentence when a man in a black hazmat suit came behind him. 

The man in the black hazmat suit had circles on the visor that looked like eyes that were surprised. The center of the hazmat's suit torso had the outlined letters that made the word "Kyle." He appeared to be holding a thin sheet of scrap in his right hand. The air tanks that the hazmat suit had behind its back appeared to have a color of a dark blue shade.

The man in the black hazmat suit also came out screaming. "AAAAHHHHHH!!!" He came out next to the man in the blue hazmat suit and they both were yelling, screaming, and panting from whatever they experienced inside from the decrepted building. 

At the moment, a man in the orange hazmat suit came out of the doors as well, with some kind of engine witin his hands.

The man who came out the door was in a hazmat suit that had a orange color to the suit, but the there was a outline in the center of the suit that looked yellow and it went down to the legs and almost to the neck of the suit. In the back of the hazmat suit was a red shade of air tanks. There also appeared to be a squirrel symbol on the center of the yellow part of the suit, however what was strange was that the squirrel had its left side of its head missing. Meaning that the squirrel symbol was missing a eye, a ear, and was showing its brain

"HOLY SHIT!!!" Screamed the man in the orange hazmat suit as he barged out the front doors with what appeared to be an engine.

He came behind the other men in the hazmat suits and after calming down, he started to conversate with the other men in the hazmat suits.

"*Pant* Fuck, that Coil-Head almost got my ass!" The man in the orange hazmat suit shouted.

The two other men in the hazmat suits turned and faced the man in the orange hazmat suit. 

"Squirrel!" Cried the man in the blue hazmat suit. "How the hell did you survive?"

"I don't fucking know myself!" Answered the man in the orange hazmat suit.

"Shouldn't we get back to the ship?" The man in the black hazmat suit questioned. "I only have a thin scrap and a Rubix's Cube." He stated as he dropped the scrap from his hand and got out the cube from his inventory (somehow) and also dropped on the floor to prove his statement.

"Yeah, I think we should head to the ship, drop off our items and then leave this moon because the dogs are probably outside the ship, so it will be hard to bring back any other items." The man in the blue hazmat suit answered.

The two other men in the hazmat suits agreed as they started walking towards an edge. The man with the blue hazmat walked to the edge of the floor which had a ladder leading down. Before he climbed down the ladder, he dropped the basket which fell all the way to the bottom of the ladder. With now a plastic fish toy in his hand, he climbed down the ladder. Then the man in the black hazmat suit went down the ladder with the thin scrap and the Rubix's Cube in his inventory after picking it up from the floor. Finally, the man in the orange hazmat suit went next. After dropping his engine (which surprisingly didn't hurt anyone as they were still climbing down the ladder) he climbed down the ladder with a flashlight that had dead batteries.

As the men in the hazmat suits finally reached the bottom of what appeared to be a balcony of stairs leading down, the man in the blue hazmat picked up his basket of bottles and the man in the orange hazmat suit picked up his engine. All the men in the hazmat suits suddenly crounched and went down the stairs, almost like they were trying to not alert anything to their location. While they were silently crouching down the stairs, a door sounded like it was being opened from where they just came down from.

Coming out of a fire exit door was another man in a hazmat suit, which had a hazmat suit that was red. He also had a weird symbol on the center torso of the hazmat suit. The back of the hazmat suit had two air tanks that were cyan. The symbol had a face that was red. An X was shown on the the right side of where the face was supposed to have a eye. It also had straighted and raggedy hair coming out of the top of its head, but not on middle of its head and it also had a little bit of hair out of his chin. A smile was on its face that was bigger on its right cheek than his left cheek. It had a fang on its bottom teeth that was over some top teeth.

"Holy shit." The man in the red hazmat exclaimed casually as  he got out the fire exit door.

"Cartoonz!?" The man in the orange hazmat suit whisper shouted. "You're alive!?"

"Yep." The man in red hazmat answered casually as he made his way to edge of the floor where the ladder was. "The dogs almost fucking got my ass, so I used the teleporter since you guys were getting more loot." While explaining, he was climbing down the ladder.

"Ok, we might make quota." Announced the man in the orange hazmat suit. "Let's not lose our loot and get our asses chomped." The rest of the men agreed and made their way down the balcony of stairs silently.

What was happening right now was men in hazmat suits collecting scraps, parts, and other items and bringing them to their spaceship. However, this was just a game to the four men in the hazmat suits because they were just avatars in the game. The man in the orange hazmat suit's name is Dead Squirrel or Squirrel for short. The man in the blue hazmat suit's name is H2O Delirious or Delirious for short. The man in the black hazmat suit's name was Kyle (if the words of the center of the hazmat suit didn't make it obvious.) And the man in the red hazmat suit's name is Cartoonz. 

This game they were playing was called Lethal Company and they were just playing to upload a video on YouTube. They had a voice chat in the game, but had the app Discord in one of tabs to talk to his friends. They were on the moon Titan and was trying to fill the quota by bringing scraps to the ship and selling it for money. That is the point of the game, but they were playing the game with a few mods. They started crouching and were walking down the stairs, not knowing the events they are about to witness and where they will originate from.







In Ponyville, it seemed like any basic sunny time of day for Earth Ponies, Unicorns, and any other Ponies in town. Though basic was not going to happen from the events that will transpire. In a grassy field away from Ponyville were 6 Ponies and a creature that had many parts of different animals.

One of the Ponies was a cyan coated mare Pegasus and had cyan wings, a pointy rainbow mane and a pointy rainbow tail, magenta eyes, and a mark on her flank that had a cloud having a rainbow shaped like lightning coming down from the cloud. She was hovering above the ground a few feet up with her wings. Boredom was written on her face. "Ugh... Twilight can you explain why you called us all out here?" She groaned. The rainbow Pegasus had raspy voice that can almost be confused with a male voice.

"Ah agree with Dash." Said another Mare with a country accent. She had a orange coat, a tied up blonde tail and tied up blonde mane that had an old stetson hat on top of the mane, green eyes, some white freckles on her face, and a mark on her flank that had a few apples on it. "Why have ya called us out here in this field, Twahlight?"

"Ooo, ooo, ooo, I know!" Called another Mare, suddenly with a energetic voice and with one of her front hooves raised high. She had a light pink coat, a curley hot pink mane and a curley hot pink tail, cyan eyes, and a mark on her flank that had a few balloons on it. "Maybe a new Pony is coming to town!" *Gasp* "Is a new Pony coming to town!? Oh wow, I can't wait! I thought of a very big surprise at the party! First, I make a very huge cak-" A hoof was pressed against her lips and she muffled what she was trying to say. "Mmmph Mmph."

The Mare who was pressing their hoof against the pink Mare's lips had a white coat and white horn, a elegant purple mane and a elegant purple tail, light blue eyes, and a mark on her flank that had a few diamonds on it. "I'm sure your ideas for a party are great to hear, darling." She said with a very female voice as she moved her hoof from the pink Pony's lips. "However, I think Twilight called us out here for something very important."

"Umm... I would like to know what's important to meet out here, Twilight?" Said another Mare with a very shy voice. She had a light yellow coat and light yellow wings, a long pink mane and a long pink tail, aqua eyes, and a mark on her flank that had a few butterflies on it. "I-if that's alright with you." She hid her face behind her mane to avoid the stares she was receiving from the other Mares.

"Well I've been testing my magic on a new spell from this book I found." Said another Mare who was floating a book with her horn. She had a lavender coat, lavender wings, and a lavender horn. As well as a flat dark indigo mane with streaks of purple and pink and her flat tail also had the same coloring. She also had purple eyes, and her mark on her flank had a 6 pointed star burst with 5 small stars that are similar to the star burst. 

"Oooh! What kooky spell having you been working on, Twilight!?" Asked the curious pink Mare.

"Well I'm glad you asked, Pinkie." Said the lavender Mare. "I've been working on a spell that could allow Alicorns to travel to different realities with a little bit of help from a Draconequus' magic." Every mare seemed amazed and curious about what the lavender Pony said. 

However, their thoughts were interrupted by chuckling coming from a creature with different animal parts. He had a ho- 

*Snap* Actually I think this is where I come in. The author of this story seems to like me and I'm his favorite character, so I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I sneaked myself in the narration. I mean, I am his favorite after all. Why you might ask? Well it started with a bunch of fanfi- Well actually, I can talk about that another time. Anyways I'm sure you're wondering who's the "creature with different animal parts?" Nice description, author. Well that would be your one and only reformed lord of chaos, Discord. Oh, and you probably want to know the names of the little Ponies, even though this story is on fan fic website where many people wrote fan fics about them. I mean. *Ahem* The lavender Mare is your eggheaded Pony, Twilight Sparkle. The Pony with the rainbow mane is Rainbow Dash, but you probably already knew that just by looking at her. The Pony with the country accent is Applejack, partner. The Pony with the white coat and dramatic attitude is Rarity. The Pony with the yellow coat, pink mane, and shy, but beautiful voice to hear is my dear friend, Fluttershy. And finally, the Pony with the pink mane and energetic energy is everypony's favorite party Pony, Pinkie Pie. Now th-

DID SOMEPONY SAY PARTY!?

Oh, hey Pinkie. Why are you breaking the 4th wall as well?

Well I heard the word "party" and I just had to check it out! Oooh are we having a party planned here!? I never done a party with the author or readers before! Hi, everyone!!!

No Pinkie, see I was abou-

Wait, wait, wait, don't tell me, is the author writing a Y/N story and we are narrating it!? Wait nevermind, that's Wattapad.

Pinkie.

Then again there are some Y/N fimfictions, but then again we sometimes call it Anyomous stories!

Pinkie!

Hmm... I wonder what is the difference between a Y/N story and a Anonymous story! I mean a Y/N sto-

PINKIE!

Yes, Dizzy!?

As much I want to talk about Y/N and Anyomous stories, I'm afraid it's going to have to wait. We have a crossover story to get through.

Okie dokie lokie!

Hehe, sorry about that, my dear reader. *Snap*

"Oh Twilight, if you wanted to travel to different dimensions, all you had to do was ask." Chuckled Discord.

"Ugh, Discord." Groaned Twilight. "We not traveling dimensions, we are testing reality travel.

"What's the difference?" Muttered Rainbow Dash to herself.

"I'm glad you asked. You see, dimensions are like a universe with insane concepts and different phys-"

"I didn't mean it literally, egghead!" Rainbow interrupted her explanation by putting a hoof on her lips.

Twilight frowned from that comment for a second before changing her expression and moving her face away from Rainbow's hoof. 

"Darling, is this why you have called us here?" Asked Rarity.

"Yes, and I've been practicing this spell with unicorn magic and it works. Now I'm going to try it on chaos magic." Twilight said, while floating a book to the 5 other ponies with her magic. She continued to keep explaining. "You see, this spell absorbs magic, but the more times the subject absorbs the magic, the more possibility that the subject will have access to that magic without being a chaos lord for example."

"Well that's certainly interestin', sugarcube." Applejack said with a curious tone. 

"I know." Agreed Twilight with a smile on her face as she moved her book away from the other mares with her magic.

"I suppose we shall start the process then." Proceeded Discord as he made a lab coat, two different rubber gloves for his eagle claw and lion hand, and goggles magically appeared on him, with the goggles being slightly above his eyelids. 

Everypony nodded and backed up, except Twilight who got in front of Discord who was just a few feet away from him.

"Alright Discord, I'm ready!" She announced. "Shoot your chaos magic at me when you're ready!"

"As you wish, your majesty." Discord said with a smirk. He put his goggles over his eyes and then reached his rubber glove covered eagle claw in front of her and without saying a word, his eagle claw was glowing a cyan aura. He then fired a cyan beam to Twilight from his eagle claw.

Twilight moved her head down a little and positioned her horn to be the first thing the beam made contact with. Before the beam made contact with her horn, it glowed a purple aura. The beam made contact with the purple aura horn, which pushed Twilight back a little bit. She was struggling to absorb the beam for a bit when eventually the beam was getting smaller. When the beam completely disappeared, her horn's tip glowed cyan.

"Ok, now to make the portal" She muttered to herself as her horn glowed brighter. As she was about to release the beam entirely to make a portal in front of her, her horn suddenly changed into a purple aura instantly and sent some kind of purple lightning strikes coming out of her horn. She winced and closed her eyes from the magical chaos happening in her horn.

"TWILIGHT!" Screamed all of Twilight's friend out of worry since they knew something was wrong, even Discord screamed out of worry as well. Before Twilight's friend can rush to her side, her horn (now facing straight up) fired a beam up into the sky. 

The beam flew up to the sky, fast. After a few seconds of flying straight up, the beam disappeared, like if it entered a invisible portal. However, Twilight's friends weren't paying much attention to the beam. They were focused on Twilight who struggling to stay on her hooves. They rushed toward her with worried expressions on their face. 

"Twilight. Are you okay?" Fluttershy asked worryingly.

"I-I'm *Pant* alright." Twilight said with a little struggle of getting those words out. Everypony's expressions softened knowing that their friend was okay. "Ok, well that didn't go as planned."

"No, you think!" Exclaimed Rainbow Dash in a sarcastic tone.

"Well Twilight, it seems that your spell needs some work." *Snap* Discord stated as he made his lab coat outfit disappear with his chaos magic. "I mean, you made your friends and you even made me concerned that something chaotic was truly going to happen to you and that's saying something from the lord of chaos himself."

"I agree." Rarity said. "You had us very worried there, darling." 

Twilight's head lowered and her expression turned into a little sad expression from her friends' concerns.

"I'm sorry everypony." Twilight started as her expression softened a little. "I didn't mean to worry you at all. I just thought I can successfully use this spell, but it looks like I need a little more practice." Her expression returned to normal after she was done with her little apology.

"Aw, it's alright Twily." Reassured Pinkie as she suddenly appeared next to her, hugged her, and wrapped her hooves around her neck. "We know you didn't mean to make us worried."

Everypony and Discord then rushed up to her and hugged her happily.

"Well, I'm glad everypony is safe and nopony is hurt." She said happily as she was still being embraced in the hug.

She was right, everypony was safe, but nobody was going to be safe from what was going to happen next.







Squirrel and his friends' avatars in the game were still crouching silently and going down the balcony of stairs. The dogs were sniffing around the ship, so none of the blind reptilian looking dogs were focused on Squirrel or his friends.

"Fuck." Squirrel muttered to himself quietly. "How are we going to get back?" The group made it to the bottom of the balcony of stairs, pondering what to do with the dogs surrounding the ship. 

"One of us is going to have to distract the dogs." Delirious suggested quietly. "But how are goi-"

He was cut off when a purple lightning striked him and his friends so fast, they couldn't react when they heard the lightning. Their avatars went flying after the purple lighting striked.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" Screamed Squirrel in a high pitch.

Even though Squirrel's avatar died by some purple lighting strike, he didn't go into spectate mode. In fact, his screen was frozen on his character still up in the air. 

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! WHY IS MY GAME FROZEN?!" After Squirrel screamed from what had happened, his PC's screen turned completely black, which meant he disconnected from the game, his Discord, and his recording stopped as well. Squirrel calmed down from what just had happened, but he still seem confused and was thinking in his chair.

"Why did my game crash and what the heck was that!?" He pondered to himself from what had happened. He never heard of a purple lighting mod in Lethal Company, so there was no way he downloaded something like that. In fact, the only mod he had downloaded was the custom skins mod.

However, his pondering was brutally interrupted when lightning strikes came out of his PC's screen, which looked similar to the one in the game that struck his game avatar.

"WHAT THE... HOW THE... WHAT THE FUCK IS GOI-" He couldn't even finished his sentence or move back when one of the purple lighting strikes hit Squirrel and he suddenly vanished. 

After a few seconds of the lighting striking inside the room, it calmed down. Leaving a messed up room with some holes in the walls, some things scattered on the floor, but most importantly, there was no Squirrel left after the chaos.







Pitch black was what became of Squirrel's vision. Whatever events happened in his room was a mystery to him. He was just playing a simple game of Lethal Company with his friends: Delirious, Cartoonz, and Kyle. It was just suppose to be a simple 1 or 2 hour playthrough recording, so he can upload it to YouTube for his viewers. But somehow, lighting striked him in real life and he doesn't know where he was after that.

His pitch black vision was getting brightened and was disappearing when one of his eyes opened slowly. He firmly pressed his hand to the right side of his head as he slowly sat up.

"Where the hell am I?" He groaned to himself as he rubbed his temple with his right hand. 

He looked around to find himself in some kind of forest that had bushes, shrubs, and vines all over the forest. There was nobody in sight and the wind blowing in the forest was the only noises present.

After he looked around his surroundings, he stood up slowly, so he can walk around. However, this is when he noticed that the forest was really big and tall compared to his height.

"Damn, this forest must be huge." He muttered as he continued to look around as he started walking, hoping to find some answers on how he got here.

Squirrel then noticed that his left eye was still seeing pitch black, but yet his right eye can see a forest perfectly well. He moved his left hand over his left eye to hopefully help him open it. 

However, when he placed his left hand on where he thought he would feel a eye, he felt a squishy and slimy touch when his hand landed. He tensed up and gave a small yelp from what he felt and removed his hand off quick where a left eye was supposed to be.

'W-what did I just f-feel on my face?' He thought with a few shivers going up his spine. After shivering, he curiously brought his left hand in front of his vision to see what his hand looked like after touching his vision covered left eye. 

His pupils turned into small dots and his jaw was dropped from what he was seeing. The left hand in his vision wasn't a human hand, It was brownish kind of hand, but he also noticed that his arm was orange.

After being shocked for a few seconds, he looked at his other arm and inspecting it, it was the same as his left arm. He noticed that a bandana was wrapped around his neck from moving his neck around. And looking behind his back, he also saw a tail peeking out.

He freaked out instantly and he said worryingly: "W-WH-H-HAT! W-W-W-WHY D-DO I H-H-HAV-V..." The words died in his throat because he was worrying too much and was trying to calm down, but after calming down, he still had tons of questions on his mind.

Why was he small? Why did he have a brown hand? Why does he have orange arms? Why does he have a bandana around his neck? Why does he have a tail? Why is his left eye vision pitch black? And why did it... feel... so... slimy?

His eye then went wide when the realization hit him hard and he put both hands on both sides of his head (with his left hand ignoring the sliminess from his left eye) and opened his mouth.

"I'M A FUCKING SQUIRREL!!!" He yelled at the top of his lung with his head facing up in the sky.

Squirrel was too distracted by what he had transformed into, he didn't know a few colorful orbs was in a nearby bush, watching him.

"What in the hay is that?"
> Chapter 2: A Cheeky Welcome
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Umm... well, it looks like we're lost." a female orange coated Filly said with a sheepish smile.

"Well great, so much for a scenic route!" Said a female white coated Filly in a sarcastic tone. 

A group of three Fillies appeared to be in a dark green forest and they were in the middle of a small opening. They seemed lost and didn't know where they were going. The white Filly and the orange Filly seemed to argue with each other as a yellow Filly watched them with worry.

"I just thought it be a..."

"A what!? A route that will make us become a Timberwolve's lunch!?" Pressing her forehead against the orange coated Filly's forehead with a glare on her face.

"Well maybe I just thought it would be a nice route to take!" She snapped back with a glare of her own.

"Girls, girls, stop fightin'." Said a female yellow coated Filly as she used each one of her hooves to push the both Fillies back. "We have to get out of this forest before we run into any Timberwolves, so let's not fight."

The two Fillies looked at each other with their glares for a second, then their expression softened and they both released a sigh with a concerned expression replacing their glares they had.

"*Sigh* You're right, I'm sorry for yelling at you, Scootaloo." The white coated Filly said with an apologetic tone in her voice.

"And I'm sorry for getting us lost in the forest, Sweetie Belle." The orange coated Filly replied with a apologetic tone as well.

"Ok, now that's clear, let's get out of this forest." Said the yellow coated Filly. The other Fillies nodded and all of them proceeded to a random direction in the forest. 







The Fillies were traveling in one straight direction in the forest for 5 minutes. None of them said anything or made a sound come out of their mouth. The silence filled the forest, but it was broken when the orange Filly whisper yelled to the other Fillies.

"Sooo... are we almost there?"

"Ah hope so." The yellow Filly whispered yelled back.

"You know, for being in a scary forest, it sure is boring. I expected a timberwolf to-"

'Please don't jinx it.' Thought the white Filly.

"-appear and attack us or maybe even a Manticore."

"Aaand she jinxed it." Said the white Filly with a deadpan expression taking place on her face."

"What? I'm just saying? You think something crazy would happen around her-"

"I'M A FUCKING SQUIRREL!!!" A distant, yet close yell interrupted her.

The Fillies looked at each other like if they saw their greatest fear. "RUNNNNN!!!" They yelled in panic. 

As they were about to run from whatever they heard, the yellow Filly's fearful expression was replaced with a face of curiosity and she exclaimed.

"Wait a secon'! That doesn't soun' like any Timberwolf or Manticore." The other Fillies stopped thinking to run and looked at her with a confused look on their face. "That sounde' like somepony is in trouble." She looked at the direction of where the sound came from. She then looked back at the other Fillies with a worried expression on her face. "We have to check it out an' make sure that Pony is okay."

The two Fillies opened their mouth to say no, but nothing came out from their mouth. They thought about the Pony who yelled and thought about the danger the Pony could be in. They nodded and agreed with her.

"You're right. We can't let somepony get ambushed out here." Said the orange Filly.

"As much as this forest scares me, we can't let anypony get hurt in this place." Said the white Filly.

"Alright Crusaders, let's go save that Pony!" Said the yellow Filly. The Fillies nodded and ran to the direction of the sound.







"C'mon y'all, we are almost there." The Fillies were running and stopped as they popped out of a bush and was introduced into a sight of a opening in the forest. They looked around to find a Pony in distress, but they didn't and were instantly confused.

"Uh... where's the Pony that was screaming?" Said the orange Filly in a confused tone.

"*Gasp* You don't think the Pony got eaten before we got here?" Gasped the white Filly in a worried tone.

"Oh c'mon, I doubt the Pony got-" She shivered a little bit at the thought."-eaten, I say we keep looking around for t-"

The two Fillies felt a hoof on their collar. Before they could react or register what they were feeling on their collar, the hoof pulled them into a bush.

"What? What was-" She stopped wondering to herself when she looked to see whose hoof was on her collar. It belonged to the yellow Filly. She had a little glare on her face and said with a little frustration in her voice. "Apple Bloom! What in Equestria are you doi-"

"Shhhhh." The yellow Filly shushed the orange Filly with a hoof pressed against the orange Filly's lips. "Look girls." Removing her hoof from the orange Filly's lips. She sneaked over to the to the edge of the bush and peeked her eyes outside of the bush. The two other Fillies looked at each other with a expression of uncertainty on their face. They followed her to the edge of the bush and peeked their eyes outside of the bush like the yellow Filly. They looked around and saw nothing, at first

'What is she worrying about?' Thought the white Filly with an eyebrow raised.

'It's official, she lost her mind.' Thought the orange Filly with a deadpan expression on her face.

"What in the hay is that?" The two Fillies heard the yellow Filly say that and looked at her then and at the direction she was looking at. What greeted their sight was something strange. It looked like a orange Squirrel with a blue bandana around it's neck. 

They inspected the Squirrel more and instantly all the Fillies' face turned into a disgusted expression with slight shade of green on their face and they were almost as green as the bush. They felt their lunch almost come up from their throat, but they quickly swallowed it back down.

"I-is t-t-that a... b-b-brain?" The white Filly shivered and was almost on the verge of passing out.

"I-I t-think it i-is." Answered the orange Filly as she shivered from what she was seeing.

"B-b-but, w-why is i-its b-b-brain s-showin'?" The yellow Filly questioned with a scared tone of voice with her hoof pointing at the Squirrel's head to gesture toward the brain that was exposed. 

"P-poor Squirrel." Said the white Filly with a worried tone and expression. "The Timberwolves must of bit a piece of his head and it got away." She shivered at the thought, but quickly got rid of the thought. She turned around and was ready to run to a different direction from the brain showing Squirrel. 

"C'mon girls, let's go get Fluttershy to help him." As she was about to take off running, she felt a grip on her tail. She turned around to see the orange Filly hold her tail with her teeth. The white Filly stopped trying to run and looked at her with a confused, yet a worried expression. "Scootaloo? Why are you stopping me? We have to go get Fluttershy."

The orange Filly let of the white Filly's tail. "Sweetie Belle, something is off about that squirrel." She said with a hint of suspicion in her voice.

"Of course something's off! A piece of that Squirrel's head is off!" Pointing her hoof at the Squirrel with a frown on her face. Surprisingly, the Squirrel didn't hear her yell at the orange Filly.

"No, I mean isn't a little strange that Squirrel is still walking around and treating this like it's nothing?" All the Fillies looked at the brain exposed Squirrel and he appeared to be walking around and looking around the forest scenery like nothing was wrong.

"Ah mean, Scootaloo does have a point." Agreed the yellow Filly. "That Squirrel is treatin' that... injury like it's nothin' an' he's just walkin' aroun' normally. Weird." 

All the Fillies' eyes narrowed with suspicion from what they were seeing. They were trying to think of an explanation of the walking brain exposed Squirrel they were seeing.

Scootaloo eyes went wide in realization after a few seconds of thinking. "I got it." Announced the orange Filly earning the curious looks from the two other Fillies. "The only way that Squirrel is alive and still walking is because it's... a... it's a... Zombieeeee." The other Fillies had a deadpan expression taking over their curious expression that just spoke the word "really?" "Oh c'mon. Think about it. That Squirrel has its brain revealed and is still walking around." They looked at her and at the Squirrel who looked like he was about to head to a random direction in the forest.

"That could be true, *Sigh* but I hope you are wrong." Said the white Filly who was looking at the Squirrel who walking into a random direction in the forest. "We better hurry, that Squirrel is leaving." Pointing a hoof at the Squirrel almost about to leave their sight. "And I think it's heading for Ponyville. We have to do something."

After a few seconds of silence, the yellow Filly had an idea. "Ok, ah have an idea." Exclaimed the yellow Filly. "We warn the Ponies of Ponyville, so that way the Squirrel doesn't spread the infection. Then we ask for Twahlight's help to trap the Squirrel. Once it's trapped, the Ponies are saved an' the Cutie Mark Crusaders still live on." The two silent Fillies looked at her and nodded to the plan.

"Well I agree with you, Apple Bloom. It is a great plan." Agreed the white Filly.

"Yeah, well I think we can trap that Squirrel by ourselves, but the other parts of the plan is ok." Agreed the orange Filly.

"That can be plan B, but right now, we got to warn the Ponies. C'mon y'all." The yellow Filly said with confidence, earning nods from the Fillies. As they all took off galloping into a different direction from the brain showing Squirrel, the yellow Filly thought about something that was a mystery in her mind as she and the two other Fillies were galloping.

'Wait? Who was the Pony screamin' in the forest? What if it was... no, it couldn't be.' She shook her head left and right a few times. After she shook her head, she kept thinking. 'There's no way that the noise came from the Squirrel, but then who was the one yellin'?'







Squirrel was in a panic and couldn't calm himself for a while. However, after a minutes of self recovery, Squirrel was finally able to make himself calm and relaxed. He didn't know where he was or how he got here, but he needed to find answers. His first priority was to get out of this dark green forest, but first, he had to calm down.

"W-what?... H-h-how d-did I... t-this c-can't be p-possible..." He trailed off as he tried to process his transformation. This took a few minutes for Squirrel to process and calmed down eventually from a few slow deep breaths. After getting his remaining shock out of his mind, he reassured himself.

"Ok...ok... Squirrel or... Joe? Whatever It's Squirrel now." He muttered to himself. "I just have to find someone and... and... and... fuck. *Sigh* Shit, I don't know what they would think about my appearance, but I just gotta find someone. Hopefully they... they... do something." Squirrel was walking in a single direction in the forest and was talking to himself. He continued to mutter things to himself to pass time and to get his exposed mind off his change in appearance.

"Now that I think about it, I mean it isn't too bad. I became a fucking Squirrel by some weird reason. Wait, If I became my avatar, I wonder if Delirious... *Gasp* I wonder if the same thing happened to Delirious, Cartoonz, and Kyle."

Squirrel wondered to himself, but he stopped muttering wonders to himself and stopped walking to look around his surroundings of the forest he was still in. After a few seconds of looking around his surroundings, he continued to keep walking and wondering to himself.

"Well hope they are okay... well, where ever they are. But what was that purple lightning though that struck me in real life and in game? I'm pretty sure I didn't download that mod or something. Even if I did, how does the mod makes me a Squirrel and make some kind of lighting come out my PC and fucking strike me!? It must be a dream, I think!?"

He looked at his left arm and got an idea to prove he wasn't sleeping and dreaming. He closed his eye and brought his right Squirrel hand on his arm and pinched at a spot on his left arm with his thumb and a finger. He winced while making a sucking noise through his gritted his teeth from the pinching. After a few seconds from testing to see if he was asleep, he stopped squeezing his left arm and opened his eye to see he still had a Squirrel arm and hand.

"So it looks like I'm not dreaming, huh. Well..." He was still walking a little bit bored of nothing interesting happening around him. "I got fat cheeks, I got fat cheeks." He said to himself randomly with a boredom expression and a hint of boredom in his tone of voice. "Hmmm... now that I think about it, I wonder if I can talk to animals since I'm a Squirrel? I can for sure eat nuts... pause. That would be awesome if I can talk to animals, especially other Squirrels. Hmm... I wonder what squirrels normally say. Huh?"

Squirrel snapped out of his own world when he saw an opening at the end of a few trees in the forest. Squirrel smiled and with a relieved tone said: "Finally, I'm almost out of this god damn forest." Instead of walking to get out of the forest, he ran toward the opening. After he made it past a few trees, he saw the clearing view become clearer. Finally he made it past the final set of trees and saw a bright green and sky blue view. The sky became more clearer to see without the trees covering it and the grass was much greener compared to the forest's.

He stopped running once he made it out of the forest and was panting slightly from the running. "*Pant* Ok, I'm out of the stupid forest, now to find someone."

Yet, he was still not sure if he should, since he was not a person anymore. In fact, he was having second thoughts about trying to find a person. Would he still be making YouTube videos for his fans? Would he even go back to his normal life? He had a look of worry on his face from thinking of the worst possibilities that could happen to him.

Eventually, Squirrel shook the thoughts out of his head. "Ok, well whatever happens, I'm going to be ready for it." He said to himself. He held his breath for a few seconds and let it out. After taking a deep breath, Squirrel was ready for what was to come. "Alright, let's do this." He ran toward a random direction into the bright green scenery. He may be ready, but he wasn't ready for what he was about to witness.







"*Pant* *Pant* Oh fuck, I'm so *Pant* fucking tired." Squirrel was tired from running for about a few minutes. His size made him feel like he was not making progress on where he was going. He was slouching with both of his arms hanging down and he was looking down since he was tired from running, but he was still walking, hoping to find someone. 

"*Pant* When *Pant* am I *Pant* "going to find someon-" His thoughts were interrupted when he looked up to find a house of some kind in the distance. 

When Squirrel saw this, it was like if someone had took over his body since he was excited and somehow gained the stamia to run toward the house, even though he was tired from running. "Holy shit!" He exclaimed to himself loudly as he started running. 

As Squirrel got closer, he got a better view of the house. It had some mossy leaves covering the top of the house with a few windows on the front side and a front arched door. There also appeared to be a little bridge that went over a little flow of water that was part of a pathway that led to the front door of the house. 

He finally made close to the house and stopped near the bridge from all of the running and was slouching with his head down and arms hanging. While taking a few breaths, he looked up to see the bridge, but at the right corner of his eye, he saw something interesting. He turned his head right and spotted many Birdhouses and nests on a tree with a few birds in them.

The Birds in the nests were sleeping and didn't notice the one eyed Squirrel on the bridge. However, one of the Birds in the birdhouse must of heard Squirrel because a pink Bird came out of a blue rooftop Birdhouse with a tired look and laid its eyes on the Squirrel. 

The tired looking Bird instantly had a horrified face taking over it's tired awakening. Squirrel noticed the Bird looking at him with a fearful expression which he had never seen a Bird do before. However, he was more focused on the Bird's horrified expression, probably because of his exposed brain and this left him in a awkward position, since he had no idea what to do. At the moment, Squirrel only had one thing to say that he could think of.

"Uhhh... hi?" He said awkwardly with a sheepish smile with a little hello wave he did with his right Squirrel hand. The Bird cawed in horror and flew away from the Birdhouse and from Squirrel. Squirrel was perplexed and had a eyebrow raised, dropping a sweat from his only brow from the reaction he caused. 

At that moment, he noticed that many other Birds came out of their Birdhouses and some stopped sleeping in their nests. The Birds were all around him, since the Birdhouses and nests were on a few trees that were planted around and some were on the mossy top of the house.

He looked all around him to see the Birdhouses and nests to see the Birds with a horrified look on their faces, just like the pink Bird. "Uhhhhhh..." Squirrel didn't know what to say and was sure that saying anything would just make them more freaked out. As expected, all the Birds cawed like the first Bird and they all flew away from Squirrel's sight in a matter of seconds. This left a ghost town for the air when all the feathery fliers were all scared by the dead looking Squirrel.

"Well... that reaction is probably went on how I expected a person...or Bird, to react to a brain showing Squirrel." He muttered to himself, wiping the perplexed look off his face.

He turned around to walk to the bridge, but was introduced to a sight of a few Bunnies with different colored fur and a Bunny with long horns that extended and looked like they were heavy for its head to handle. They were on the tiny bridge with horrified expressions and looked like they were frozen with fear. 

Squirrel and the pair of Bunnies were just staring at each other and Squirrel didn't know what to do, since he's sure it will end up like when the Birds saw him. Eventually something happened, but a move wasn't made by the Bunnies and Squirrel.

The front door to the mossy rooftop house opened hastily and slammed in the wall which made Squirrel jump and the bunnies snap out of their frozen state and turn their heads to the direction of the sound. Squirrel looked over to the front door thinking it was a human opening the front door and looked relieved for a second to find a actual person, but what came out the front door, made Squirrel blink a few times in surprise from what he saw.

He saw some kind of yellow coated Horse with long pink hair and a pink tail, blue eyes that were bigger and cartoon looking than any other Horse he had seen, and it had a few black eyelashes. Just looking at the Horse's coloring and features, screamed female vibes to Squirrel. The buttery colored Horse didn't notice Squirrel and she looked very concerned and was looking around.

"I heard screaming outside, is everything ok out here!?" Exclaimed the yellow Horse with a worried tone in her voice. After hearing the female Horse talk, Squirrel had his jaw dropped and was in his own frozen state, like the Bunnies.

The butter Horse noticed the Bunnies looking at her and flew to them with her wings. "Are you ok? Did something happen?" She asked the Bunnies worryingly, after laying her hooves on the ground. 

The Bunnies with their horrified faces returning, squeaked at the same time and it looked like the yellow Horse wasn't understanding anything they were trying to say. 

"Shhhhh... calm down and take a deep breath." The Bunnies stopped squeaking and listened to the yellow Horse's advice and took a long deep breath and let out some air from their lungs. 

"Alright, now tell me, what's wrong?" Instead of one of the Bunnies explaining what was the matter, all the Bunnies pointed their paws at the panic in front of them that the butter covered Horse didn't notice.

The Horse saw all their paws pointing to a direction. With a confused expression on her face, she turned her head to where their paws were pointing at.

"Is something wrong over ther-" She couldn't finish her sentence when she turned her head to the horrific sight she saw. Her eyes turned into tiny dots and her mouth dropped with shock. She saw a Squirrel on its two legs standing like a tiny minotaur, but that was not what shocked her, it was the Squirrel's brain showing out of its skull that made her horrified.

Squirrel (still in his shocking daze) was staring at the yellow Horse and it seemed that none them didn't know what to say to each other. Eventually, Squirrel was able to come back to his senses and say a quiet, awkward hello, but he was still shocked on seeing a Horse acting very Human.

"Uhh... hi?... How's it going?" This made the yellow Horse reach its breaking point.

"EEEEEEEEPPPPPP!!!" She screamed loudly in panic. The animals around her looked at her in worry, while the animals sleeping were woken up by the alarm coming from the yellow Horse's mouth.

Squirrel didn't know how to deal with this situation. A very Human Horse was panicking and screaming in terror. He didn't know what to do. He never expected to be in a situation like this. However, there was only one thing he can think of to say at the moment.

"Shit."
> Chapter 3: Acorny Chase
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

"C'mon y'all, we're almost there." The yellow Filly informed as she and the other two Fillies were galloping. 

The three Fillies eventually saw an opening that led out of the forest and ran toward it. 

Once they past the exit, they stopped and tried to catch their breaths while letting out some pants. 

After catching their breaths, the orange Filly broke the panting atmosphere.

"Finally, *Pant* we are out of the forest." Said the orange Filly with a relieved tone, during a pant.

"Yeah, *Pant* after you leads us to many wrong directions." Argued the white Filly.

"Well, *Pant* it's not my fault."

"*Pant* Yeah, whatever you say."

"Sweetie Belle, *Pant* as much as ah want to argue about Scootaloo's *Pant* sense of direction, we have to warn Ponyville about the brain showin' rodent." The two other Fillies nodded, but the orange Filly made a face of pout at the yellow Filly's comment.

The little Fillies looked ahead in their direction and in the distance, saw a house with a mossy rooftop.

"Ok, let's go warn Flutte-"

"EEEEEEEEPPPPPP!!!" 

The white Filly was interrupted by a loud yell in the distance. Instantly, the Fillies all had uneasy expressions.

"Oh no, Fluttershy!" All the Fillies said in a panic.

"We are coming!" Yelled the orange Filly as she galloped toward the house. The other two Fillies galloped as well and were behind the orange Filly. They were worried about the sight they were going to see, but they wanted to make sure that the Pony who yelled was okay.







Fluttershy stopped screaming and was trying to keep calm, but how can she? She was seeing a animal with its brain exposed. However, every animal was her friend and she wanted to make sure they were fine, even if the situation is a little gruesome.

She quickly flew over to Squirrel and put her two front hooves on the side of its torso, under its arms and picked the little rodent up. This caught the brain exposed Squirrel by surprise and he let out a little "hey."

"Ohmygosh, ohmygosh! Are you okay?!" Panicked Fluttershy while still hovering a few feet and with the Squirrel in her hooves.

The Squirrel was trying to push his body away from her hoove grip, but with how small he is, he was making any progress on leaving her gentle hooves.

"What are you doing!?" The Squirrel questioned while having a little bit of panic in his voice from Fluttershy's actions.

Fluttershy wasn't thrown off at the Squirrel talking since she always talked with animals and translated their language. Plus, she wasn't even focused on the Squirrel talking, she was focused on the obvious problem in her eyes.

"It's okay, it's okay." Fluttershy said with a comforting tone, trying to calm down the Squirrel, but she was still in a little state of panic herself. "I'm going to take you to the hospital and you're going to be fine." She cared about animals so much, but she never been in a situation that required her to sew a skull back together.

"Wait, but I am fine. It is just my normal appearance." Said the Squirrel nonchalantly, getting rid of the panic in his voice. 

Fluttershy looked at the Squirrel with a questionable, but worried look on her face. She didn't know how to respond to that comment. Its brain was exposed, how would that be a normal appearance for any animal? 

Fluttershy shook her head to stop thinking about what the rodent had said and she turned her attention to her white bunny friend: Angel Bunny.

"Angel, please watch the cottage while I take this Squirrel to the hospital." Angel nodded and looked a little scared from the Squirrel she was still holding.

"Wait, but I'm n-" The Squirrel didn't get to finish his sentence when Fluttershy stopped him talking by pushing his face on her chest with one of her hooves. He was moving his arms and tail in refusal and was trying to tell her that he was fine, but with his face covered in buttery hair, he can only muffle.

"Mmmph, mmmph, mmph." He muffled, still trying to move around out of her grip. Though Fluttershy was a little bit disgusted by the Squirrel's insides, she always wanted to make sure all her animal friends were okay and would do anything to make sure they are fine, even if it meant getting everypony staring at her.

"Please stop arguing." Muttered Fluttershy in a soft cooing voice as she took of flying away from the cottage in a hurry with the Squirrel in her hooves and pushed to her chest. She was unaware that her disappearance from her cottage would start a panic from a group of Fillies.







'Please be okay, please be okay.' Thought the yellow Filly with panic. The three Fillies were getting closer and seeing the side of the cottage in the distance.

After a few seconds of galloping toward the cottage, the Fillies finally made to the cottage and were running on a tiny bridge that was over a little flow of water. They stopped in front of the cottage's front door.

"Fluttershy!" Yelled the orange Filly while knocking on the door with her right front hoof. There was no response for a few seconds, which made the little Fillies worry that the worst thing, happened to their friend. 

"Are you okay!?" The white Filly said while she attempted to twist and push on the door handle, hoping it would open and surprisingly, it opened. The Fillies looked uneasy about the door being unlocked and were looking at each other.

As the door opened wide, they saw that it was empty and nopony was in the living room. The silence in the cottage was filled with a gust of wind from the wide open front door.

"Fluttershy! Are you in here?" Asked the yellow Filly. A few seconds passed and nopony replied. The Fillies gulped in fear and felt a little lump go down their throat. They were scared and were shivering at an image in their head that made their whole body shake.

Their illustrative thoughts were interrupted when they heard a few thumps coming behind them. They quickly turned around and saw nopony behind them, but could see two white long ears peeking into their vision. Their stares followed the long ears down to the source of it and saw it belonged to a Bunny who came up behind them. 

They let out a sigh of relief when it wasn't the zombie Squirrel who was sneaking up on them. The Bunny crossed his furry paws on front of his chest, he had a glare stare on his face, and was thumping his left foot impatiently that just send out the words "what are you doing here?"

"Oh Angel, are we glad to see you." Said the orange Filly with a relieved smile and tone. "Do you know where Fluttershy is?" The Bunny nodded his head in a yes gesture and the Fillies smiled to hear that their friend hasn't disappeared or hurt.

"Ok, where is she?" Asked the yellow Filly. The Bunny paused and tried to think of a way to tell the group of Fillies where she went, since he was an animal and they couldn't understand him. His face brightened when a lightbulb went on in his head. He thought of doing some gestures to help the Fillies understand. 

The Bunny was doing a impression of a little walk with a happy smile and his eyes closed. The Fillies were confused on what he was doing, but eventually caught that he was doing impressions to communicate with them.

"Ok, so Fluttershy was... enjoyin' her day?" Asked the yellow Filly. The Bunny nodded his head yes and continued to make more gestures. He still made a peaceful walking gesture, but he instantly changed his to another where he had a shocked expression face and his two front paws on each side of his face.

"And... she forgot something?" The orange Filly guessed with confusion in her voice. The Bunny glared at the guess and shook his head no. "Did she come across... something weird?" He softened his glare and did a little yes nod. "Hmmm... but what did she come across?" She wondered to herself. The white Filly put her left hoof on her face and shook her head.

"Oh for... it's obvious she came across the zombie Squirrel." Exclaimed the white Filly as she removed her hoof from her face. The Bunny nodded his head yes. "So she ran from the Squirrel and it is chasing her. Oh no... we have to go save her." The Bunny was about to nod no, but none of the Fillies were paying attention, since the white Filly had their eyes staring at her.

"We need to get to the clubhouse an' get some supplies." Said the yellow Filly. The bunny glared at the Fillies and had his paws crossed.

"But how are we going to get there fast enough, it will take a lot of time to get the clubhouse before the zombie Squirrel might get Fluttershy, so how will we stop it?" Asked the orange Filly. 

The Bunny rolled his eyes as he was being ignored by the Fillies. He hopped away from the group as they were continuing to make assumptions about the Squirrel. 

The yellow Filly looked into the cottage through the open front door. She had an idea. "Girls, ah got an idea." The other Fillies looked confused and rose a single eyebrow. The yellow Filly went in the cottage and the two Fillies looked at each other and looked back at the yellow Filly who was inside the cottage. They eventually followed the yellow Filly inside the cottage and were following her idea. The rodent wouldn't know what hit him.







Squirrel was still being suffocated in a buttery coat. In fact, that was the only thing he can see in his vision. He was kidnapped by a yellow Horse with wings and he was wondering to himself: 'how the fuck did I get in this situation?'

Squirrel was trying to escape the butter Horse's grip, but even though she looked gentle, she had strong grip (although it's probably due to his small Squirrely size.) Squirrel couldn't see, but he could feel his back fur feel a little wind from the Horse's flying grip. "Mmmph mmmph mmmmph." He tried to make a rebuttal and convince the Horse that he was fine, but it only came out as muffles. 

"Don't worry, you will be fine when we get to the hospital. Just try to keep breathing." She said while she was still flying. Squirrel had a little blush on his face and was a little exhausted from trying to escape her grip. 

Squirrel had a idea on how to escape the pink haired Horse, but it probably would hurt her and he was trying not to do that or make her a little mad at him. Squirrel sighed and thought: 'screw it." He brought his right hand to a spot on the Horse's chest and pinched at a spot on her chest. 

She winced and let out a little yelp. She let go of Squirrel and finally, he was able to see something that wasn't a buttery coat. After he landed on the ground, he saw many Horses everywhere and he did a slow 360 degree turn with his body to see the Horses around him. They were walking and doing their own thing, until they laid their at the yellow Horse who caught their attention, thanks to her yelp from Squirrel's pinch. 

Their attention was on the yellow Horse for a few seconds, in which she recovered from the pinch and noticed that the Horses were staring at her and hid behind her hair with a small blush on her face. The crowd of Horses laid their eyes on something besides the shy Horse. 

They noticed a squirrel, however once they saw the Squirrel, their eyes all turned into dots. Some of the Horses' jaws were dropped, and some horses looked a little green and felt their lunch almost come out their throat. Squirrel noticed that the crowd was looking at him and was looking left and right at the crowd a few times. He decided to say something, even though it would probably freak them out more.

"Ummm... so how's it going?" He asked with a sheepish smile forming on his face, as well a few sweat coming from his forehead. The crowd just looked more shocked, their short dotted eyes somehow turned smaller, and more jaws were dropped. Squirrel knew he wasn't going to convince the crowd not to panic. 'These guys are still going to panic are th-' He couldn't even finish the sentence in his head when every horse around him screamed and were running from him. "Yep, I fucking knew it." He muttered to himself. 

Now every Horse around him were panicking and were running in random directions away from him. The yellow Horse snapped out of her shy hiding and noticed that she was floating a few feet above the running crowd. She had a panicked expression on her face with her two front hooves on each side of her head. "Oh no." She muttered to herself with a little bit of panic in her voice, fearing that the Squirrel was being trampled by the crowd under her, since she couldn't see the Squirrel anymore because of the crowd. "Squirrel! Squirrel!" She yelled into the fleeing crowd on hoping to recieve an answer from him, but there was no response besides the screams the crowd was making.

However, Squirrel was actually ok. He was in the Horse crowd, but he wasn't be trampled by them, although his tail did get stomped on a single time. He manages to avoid the Horses and after a minute of evading them, he got out and was not inside the panicking crowd anymore. 'Finally, the crowd can't stomp my fucking ass.' He thought as he ran from the crowd. As he was running, he heard the buttery Horse call out to him into the crowd, thinking he was still in it. Squirrel however, didn't stop since he didn't want to go to the hospital and get surgery on his brain because that was his normal appearance (for his avatar at least.) Squirrel left the scene of the panicked Horses, however his appearance in the town created a panic that will make a trio believe he is something that he isn't.







The trio of Fillies were galloping into town with some kind of saddle bags that had some supplies in them. They had determined stares on their faces, but it quickly changed into a confused expression when they ran into a small fleeing crowd who was running the opposite direction of the Fillies. They were perplexed on what they were running from, but they instantly answered that question in their head when they knew that the squirrel scared them.

"C'mon y'all, we're almost there. Ah feel it." Said the yellow Filly as she and the other Fillies were still galloping with their determined looks glued back on their face.

"Yeah, we are going to beat that squirrel freak up for attacking Fluttershy." The orange Filly said.

"Wait, but I thought we were going to warn Ponyville and tell Twilight that the Squirrel was on the loose?" Questioned the white Filly.

"Look around, Sweetie Belle. Almost everypony knows that the Squirrel is roaming around." Replied the orange Filly as she turned her head to look at the white Filly. "Plus, if it's attacking Fluttershy right now, we might not have time to tell Twilight."

"Scootaloo has a point Sweetie Belle." Agreed the yellow Filly. "We might not have time to warn Twahlight."

"I suppose you are right." The white Filly agreed.

Suddenly the yellow Filly stopped. The other Fillies noticed she was stopping and stopped a little late than the yellow Filly. The two Fillies turned around and walked to her, confused on why she stopped.

"Uhhh... why did you stop?" The orange Filly asked the yellow filly.

"Because the squirrel is right there." She replied as she pointed a hoof in a direction. She was right because when the two Fillies turned around, they spotted the Squirrel in the distance and its back was facing them.

"There it is." Whisper yelled the white Filly. "But where is Fluttershy?"

"I don't know, but let's get it." The orange Filly growled as she was about to charge at the Squirrel, however she felt a pressure on her tail, holding her down. When she realized she wasn't moving, she turned around and noticed that the yellow Filly was holding her tail down with a hoof. She stopped trying to charge at the Squirrel, which made the yellow Filly move her hoof off her tail.

"Wait a secon', Scootaloo." She said. "As much as Ah want to stop that rodent, remember its a Zombie. An' if you get bit, you won't be the same Scootaloo we know." She shivered at the thought of her friend becoming a monster that wants to eat her brains. The white Filly must've of had the same thought because she was also shivering. 

The orange Filly felt stupid after listening to the yellow Filly's concerns. "*Sigh* You're right." She agreed. "Sorry for not listening."

"It's alright." The white Filly reassured her. "Ok, so what's the plan?" She turned her head and faced the yellow Filly, as she asked her the question.

"Hmmm..." She wondered to herself as she tried to think of a plan to overpower the Zombie Squirrel. After a few seconds of thinking, something sparked in her head and a plan came into her mind. "Ah got it." She exclaimed and huddled the other Fillies next to her. "So here's what we are goin' to do."







"*Pant* *Pant* Ok, finally I'm far away from those fucking Horses." Squirrel muttered to himself. His stamia was drained from all the running and evading that he did in the crowd. He was slouching, but was still walking and looking down since he felt a little nausea in his head that weighed it down. As he was still exhausted from the running, he lifted his heavy head up to see his path ahead of him. He saw a bridge ahead of his path and went back to letting his heavy head weigh down again.

"*Sigh* What the fuck am I going to do in this crazy ass Horse town?" He asked himself. He was confused on how he ended up in a sentient Horse town, or how he became his squirrel icon, but he just wanted to get some answers on how the fuck this happened. 

He continued to walk forward to the bridge. However, as he was about to get his first step on the bridge, he heard a few foot steps (that sounded like Horse hooves hitting the floor) behind him, which made him stop walking. He stood up straight and turned his head to get a look on what was going on behind him.

However, instead of Horses in his sight, he got a peek at a rope flying above him. It fell down and landed around his neck and that's when he realized it was a jump rope that was tied as a lasso. 

Before he could realize what was going on, he suddenly felt the lasso pull on his neck. Instantly, his eyes turned into dots and was making choking noises. He put his Squirrel hands on the jump rope to try and pull it off his neck, but the grip from the Horse (he was assuming it was a horse) was much stronger than his.

"Nice, Apple Bloom. You can really turn a jump rope into a dangerous weapon." He heard a female voice call out, but he didn't care, since he was more focused on the lasso tied around his neck. His hands were pulling on the lasso, but he wasn't making progress on removing the lasso.

"Thanks Scootaloo." He heard a different female voice say and he continued to hear what she said, while he continued to try and remove the lasso. "But there's no time for compliments." As the second female voice declared. 

Squirrel managed to pull the jump rope lasso away from his neck that he was able to maneuver his head and move the lasso over his head, then he dropped it on the floor. He was leaning and was facing his eyes to the ground to catch a few breaths.

"*Pant* *Pant* What the hell wa-" 

"Quick Sweetie Belle! Do it now!" The female voice behind him interrupted his muttering. He turned around to see the horses that were strangling him with a jump rope and noticed a floating empty flower pot in his vision. The flower pot looked giant, for him at least. When it came down on Squirrel, it trapped him in the empty inside of the pot. His Squirrel tail was not entirely covered and it was peeking out of the pot, thanks to the long length of it.

Squirrel winced and sucked air through his gritted teeth when the pot landed on his tail. "Fuck, fuck. Fucking shit that really hurt." He muttered to himself through his wincing teeth. As he was trying to recover, he heard another and different female voice talk from the outside of the pot.

"Oh yeah! Take that you rodent freak!"

'What the hell?' He thought to himself with confusion. As he was trapped, he looked at his tail and that's when he noticed his tail was free and created a opening. He saw it and sighed with relieve. As he was lifting the pot from the opening, he heard the three female voices talk to each other.

"Finally, we got it." 

"Yeah, we did it Crusaders."

"Glad that Zombie Squirrel is captured, but now what do we do?"

"We tell Twahlight an' she'll know what to do with him."

Squirrel lifted the pot and moved himself away from the inside of the pot. He stopped lifting the pot and was out of the potty prison. He realized that the Horses stopped talking and he quickly turned around. He finally saw his Horsey attackers and had a perplexed expression. All the three Horses looked smaller than the pink haired Horse.

One of the Horses had yellow skin, red hair and a red tail, a bow on her hair, and she had reddish orange eyes. She seemed to be carrying a shocked expression on her face with her eyes open and her jaw dropped to the floor.

Another Horse had orange skin and orange wings, purple hair and a purple tail, and she had grayish purple eyes. She seemed surprised that Squirrel made it out. She had her eyes wide open with her eyebrows raised in astonishment and her eyes said on how she was feeling.

The final Horse had white skin and a white horn, pink and purple hair, as well as a swirl of pink and purple tail, and green eyes. She had her eyes raised and had a similar look to the orange Horse.

The silence of the staring contest was broken by the small orange Horse. "It's free! Sweetie Belle." She exclaimed as she turned to her white Horse friend.

"I'm on it." The small white Horse nodded and had an aura on her horn. The bag on her back suddenly opened when something on the inside of it was coming out. A kitchen pan came out of the back and was glowing a cyan aura as well as her horn. While it was a mysterious sight for Squirrel to see a floating pan, he had his scared eyes on the pan that was now menacingly facing toward him. He wasn't going to let a group of magical Horses crush him with a pan that.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." He panically said, making his two palms facing the Horses and waving his hands in a no signal, to get them to stop. The Horses' mouth dropped instantly and their eyes turned into tiny periods due to the shock of hearing the Squirrel talk. 

"It can talk!" Exclaimed the yellow Horse.

"Ahh! A talking Zombie Squirrel. Quick get it!" The orange Horse screamed, as she turned to her white Horse friend. The white Horse nodded and used her aura to float the pan closer to Squirrel.

"Wait, wait wait! Don't attack me!" He exclaimed which got the white Horse to stop floating the pan toward him. She and the yellow Horse looked at him with eyebrows raised in confusion. However, the orange Horse's had a glare.

"And why shouldn't we, you Zombie freak!?" She asked Squirrel.

"What?" He muttered confusion. "What are yo-"

"You scared Ponyville and kidnapped Fluttershy!" She continued interrupting Squirrel. She took a few steps forward with a suspicious glare on Squirrel. "And also-" She pointed a hoof at him. "-you have your brain showing like a Zombie would and you're trying to eat Ponies as a snack!" 

"B-but I'm not a Zombie." He tried to countered that accusation. The horses didn't seem to buy his counter since they all had a glare on their faces.

"Well what in tarnation are you?" Asked the yellow Horse.

Squirrel's face dropped and sweat was forming on his forehead. He couldn't think of the way to explain it to the Horses when the pressure was setting on him. "Uh... uhhmm." He stuttered and had sweating puddles when he tried to think of the words, but he couldn't. Then he thought of what to say. "I'm a... good Zombie?" He managed to say those words with a bit of unsureness in his tone, as well as a sheepish smile.

The Horses still had their suspicious glares on their faces and they looked unconvinced. "Get him!" The orange Horse suddenly yelled. 

The white filly levitated the pan and descended fast toward Squirrel. However, Squirrel jumped backwards before it slammed onto him. After he landed, he turned around and quickly ran on the bridge.

"He's gettin' away! After him!" He heard the yellow Horse yell.

As he got off the bridge at the other end, he turned his head to get a good look behind him. He saw the Horses chasing him and they had glares. 

Surprisingly, Squirrel was able to run a little fast on his two rodent legs, even though he was small due to his Squirrelly size. The pan was still being levitated and was try to slam on Squirrel, but he kept dodging while he was running from the glaring Horses. He didn't know where he was going, but all he was trying to do was head to a path that made him lose the crazy Horses. Too bad he hasn't realized that this path will lead him into more crazy Horses. 







Twilight and her friends (minus Fluttershy) were hanging out in Sugarcube Corner. They were talking about what had happened an hour ago and some other topics as well. Fluttershy had left to go tend to her animal friends. However, after conversating, Twilight and her friends were about to head out.

"Well than, I'm probably going to head to the castle, Spike is probably waiting for me to tell him about the experiment." Said Twilight as she turned to the front door.

"Yeah, ah should probably head back to the orchard." Agreed Applejack.

Everypony walked to the door (including one Draconequus that floated towards it.) They opened the door and were greeted by the noises of Pony screams. They all turned their heads to the left, toward the source of the sound and saw many Ponies galloping with scared faces. They were getting closer to Twilight and her friends, but they ran past them, continuing on their panicked galloping. Once they got away from the group, silence filled the air. 

The Mane 6 (minus Fluttershy) and Discord were confused about the panicking Ponies that passed by. Rainbow, being the first to snap out of her daze first, broke the silence.

"Uhhh... what was that abo-" She couldn't finish her sentence when Pinkie interrupted her.

"Ooh, my Pinkie Sense is going off!" She exclaimed as she, everypony, and a Draconequus noticed that her tail was twitching wildly. This went on for a few seconds and it stopped. "Wowie, it felt like something chaotic was happening."

Discord's eyes widened upon hearing the word "chaotic." He snapped his fingers and disappeared, but he reappeared when he came out of Pinkie's mane. He stretched his neck and pressed his upside down face against her muzzle. "Something chaotic, you say?" He said with a smiling smirk.

"Yup-a-rooni." Replied Pinkie. 

Discord snapped his fingers and disappeared from Pinkie's mane. He reappeared and had a camera in his talon and lion hand. "Now this I got to see." He said with his smile still on his face. "I'm sure my dear, Fluttershy wouldn't mind if I check on the chaos that is about to happen."

Before the chaotic duo can keep talking, two Ponies ran into Twilight and bumped into her. The two Ponies and Twilight fell on impact and they were on the grassy floor. "Owww..." Twilight heard one familiar voice groan. She lifted her head from the ground to see a familiar minty colored Pony and creamy white colored pony on top of her. These Ponies were Lyra and Bon Bon. 

Twilight levitated Lyra and Bon Bon off her a few inches away from her and got up. Lyra and Bon Bon were opening their eyes when they were levitated on the ground. Bon Bon was opening her eyes first and groaned. She got up and wondered what she bumped into. "Lyra and Bon Bon? What is going on?" Twilight asked with a confused tone, as she looked at Bon Bon getting up. 

Bon Bon's eyes instantly opened wide in realization when she realized that she bumped into the Princess of Friendship, Twilight Sparkle. "P-p-princess T-Twilight." Bon Bon stuttered, fearing that bumping into a princess made her a little angry. "I-I'm so s-sorry for b-bumping into you."

Lyra recovered and got up, but she eventually realized that she bumped into Twilight as well. "W-we are s-s-sorry." Lyra was able to get those words out in a scared manner, but in a apologetic tone as well.

"It's alright." Twilight reassured them. Lyra and Bon Bon let out a relieved sigh when they heard the princess' reassurment. Twilight was wondering why they were running away in a panic, so she decided to ask them. "What is going on?"

Lyra and Bon Bon had a little bit of sweat dripping down their face and they had a expression of uneasiness. Bon Bon opened her mouth to tell Twilight what she saw, but Lyra got her words out first. "W-we saw it." She shivered at the thought of monster she encountered. She continued to describe what she witnessed. 

"I-it talked and i-it was small, like a S-squirrel, b-but it had a... i-it had a-a... i-its... its..." Her words died in her throat when she started to shiver wildly. Her wild panic returned when she turned more green than usual as she looked like she was holding her lunch from escaping from her throat. She fled from the group when her panic took control of her mind and body.

"LYRA!" Bon Bon yelled as she ran after her. "WAIT!" She continued to galloped after Lyra. 

No Pony or Draconequus stopped them and were left with confused thoughts in their heads. Twilight had many thoughts, questions, and connect the dots between the chaos in town and Pinkie's sense.

Pinkie's sense of a chaotic event that was happening, made Twilight a little worried of what type of chaos that was happening. She didn't want to believe that the Pinkie Sense picked up on what the Ponies were running from, but it couldn't be a coincidence. Everytime she saw or heard chaos happening, she would always think of Discord as the first suspect. However, she has been hanging with Discord before this chaos was sensed, which worried Twilight on what was terrorizing Ponyvillie.

She snapped out of her own world and shared her thoughtful thinking to her friends. "That would explain the panicked Ponies galloping by us and what Lyra and Bon Bon had said. We have to check it out." She had a worried expression when she told her friends. They all had different expressions from what she had concluded. 

Rarity had a uneasy expression thinking about the chaos happening. Applejack had a glare when thinking of the monster that was scaring Ponies. Rainbow Dash had the same attitude and expression as Applejack when thinking of the monster. Pinkie was being Pinkie and hummed a happy tune with her eyes closed and her head moving left and right, on sync with the song she was humming. Discord was cleaning his camera with a cloth and had a smile on his muzzle.

She turned her head toward her friends, while she was rambling about her concerns. "Quick everypony, we have to find out what is scaring Ponyville." 

"We're right behind you, darling." Said Rarity

"Yeah, let's find this monster." Said Rainbow with a little bit of determination in her voice.

The other Ponies nodded and agreed with Twilight. They all ran to the direction where Lyra and Bon Bon galloped from. Discord stayed behind with a grin still on his face. "Oh Celestia, what chaos is brought to Ponyville today?" He said to himself with a slight chuckle as he snapped his fingers, which made him disappear from where he was standing. The chaos that he and his friends were about to see, would be a major experience for them.







"Leave me alone!" Squirrel yelled at the Horses chasing him, as he was running away from them and the pan that almost slammed on him.

"No way, you talking Zombie rodent!" Argued the orange Horse, as she and the other Horses were still chasing him.

"But I'm a good Zomb-" He try to reassure them that he wasn't a killer Zombie, but he was interrupted by a pan crushing him. He let out a grunt out in pain when he felt the force of the pan, fall on top of him. He fell on the grassy floor with the pan weighing on top of him, which felt like an anvil to him. 

"Got him!" Exclaimed the white Horse. After the pan weighed Squirrel down, it was floated off him. As soon as the pan anvil was lifted off him, he wanted to run away. However, his legs couldn't cooperate, since they were exhausted from the force that was pressured into them. All Squirrel could do at the moment was lay down and try to recover. He also laid his head down as well. He heard hoof steps behind him and they stopped in front if him.

"Alright, you Zombie." Growled the orange Horse, which made Squirrel lift his head up to see the small Horse. The three Horses were in front of him, staring at him with a glare. They were a few feet away from him, thinking he would try to bite them if they were close. 

The orange Horse was a little close to him, compared to the yellow and white Horse. "Where did you take Fluttershy?" She questioned with a bit of a growl in her tone.

"Who the heck is Fluttershy?" He asked with a bit of confusion.

"Don't play dumb with us!"

"I-I don't know what you're talking about." He commented with confusion.

"The Pony you chased at the cottage." Informed the yellow Horse.

"Wait, you guys are Ponies?" He asked.

"We are Fillies, but also-" Said the white Horse, (or Filly rather) as she levitated the pan in front of her, which intimidated Squirrel who was scared to be crushed by the pan again. "-stop avoiding the question."

"I'm not, also I still don't know what you're talking about." Squirrel said.

"What do you mean by 'don't know?' We know that you went into that cottage, we heard from Angel." The white Filly argued.

"Wait, are you talking about that house had a lot of animals?" He questioned.

"Of course we are!" Yelled the orange Filly, who was getting a little frustrated with the Zombie Squirrel.

"Wait a second, I didn't chase anyone." Squirrel said, who had a little frustration in his voice. He was getting up from the grassy floor, forgetting he was being threatened to get crushed by a pan, since he had irritation take over him. 

"In fact, when I arrived there, I got kidnapped by a Horse, or a Pony rather. And I got captured because apparently I was 'injured.' So I escaped from that crazy yellow Pony because nobody is messing with my brain."

The yellow and white Filly were confused and were having second doubts about the Squirrel. However, the orange Filly realized something. "Wait a minute, are you saying that Fluttershy Foalnapped you?"

"I think you mean kidnapped, but if this 'Fluttershy' Is that yellow Pony who 'Foalnapped' me, then yes." He informed them with his arms crossed.

"You are lying!" She rebuked while taking a few steps toward Squirrel. She also forgot the worst thing that could happen to her, since frustration was taking over her. "Fluttershy has never Foalnapped, or apparently kidnapped in your case. She is a shy and caring Pony who wouldn't hurt a fly, literally!" She was now close to him and was staring down at him. Her friends noticed she was inching closer to the Squirrel and were worried.

"Scootaloo, what are you doin'?! Get back before that Zombie rodent bites you!" Cried the yellow Filly.

"Not until this Squirrel admits that he Foalnapped Fluttershy!" The orange Filly rebuked, as she was still looking at Squirrel and lowered her head down, to show her glare at the Squirrel.

"I did not!" He argued back with frustration, now on his face and voice.

"You did too!" She pressed her head against the Squirrel's head, ignoring the fact that she was also pressing against his brain.

"Did not!" He pressed his head as well, which surprisingly, they had the same strength when pressing their heads at each other. This made the other Fillies watch the scene unfold with a mote worried look on their face, fearing that something bad will present itself, yet all they did was watch the argument between them form.

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"DID TOO!"

"DID NOT!"

"DID TOO!!"

"DID NOT!!"

"DI-" Before the orange Filly can rebuttal back at the Squirrel, she heard a familiar raspy voice cry her name.

"Scootaloo!"

"Huh?" She turned around and saw a light blue and rainbow blur flying toward her at a fast speed. She recognized the blue and ran toward it. Her face brightened and called out the name of the blur heading toward her. "Rainbow Dash!"

The blur was slowing down and landed in front of the orange Filly. When the blur stopped, it turned out to be a Pony with wings that flew to her. The Pony had light blue skin, but what caught Squirrel's attention was that the Pony had rainbow hair. 'Jesus, how much hair dye do these fucking Ponies use?' He wondered in his head.

"Squirt, what are you doing here?" The rainbow haired Pony asked the orange Filly. Faint footsteps, or rather hoofsteps, were heard behind the rainbow Pony. They were approaching and turned out to be a few other Ponies and a Frankenstein looking monster.

A female looking Pony with a western hat on her head galloped toward the yellow Filly and stopped in front of her. "Apple Bloom, thank Celestia, you're ok." The Pony with the western hat said to the yellow Filly with relief in her voice.

The Fillies were confused in what she was talking about and was about to question her, however she was interrupted by a marshmallow colored Pony talking to the white Filly.

"You too, Sweetie Belle. I thought you encountered that beast that was around Ponyville and... oh, I just feel worried just thinking about it." The marshmallow Pony said with worry in her voice, as she hugged the white Filly.

"Uhhh... beast?" The white Filly muttered with a questionable tone. A lavender skinned Pony walked up the marshmallow Pony and answered the Filly's confusion about a beast lurking around Ponyville.

"There is a beast around that is scaring everypony in Ponyville." The lavender Pony informed. "I'm just glad we found you before it did." The Fillies looked at each other after that comment. 

"Uhhmm... ah think we already foun' it." The yellow Filly awkwardly stated. The Ponies looked surprised and had confusion written on their face. 

Once the marshmallow colored Pony heard what the Filly said, she hugged the white Filly more closer to her. "Oh my, are you ok? Did that ruffian hurt you? Wherever he is, I'll make sure to-" 

The marshmallow Pony was interrupted by the white Filly's reassurment. "Wait Rarity, it's fine. It didn't hurt me at all."

"Oh, that's a relief to hear." The marshmallow Pony hugged her with a look of relief for a few seconds. Then she had a question in her head that she want answered. "Wait, if you saw the beast, where is it now?" 

"Wellll......" All the Fillies struggled to say the beast's location at first, but they eventually informed them of its whereabouts at the same time. "It's... right there." They pointed their hooves at a single direction.

Everypony and the Frankenstein monster followed their vision toward the direction of where the Fillies pointed. When they saw what they were pointing their hooves at, they instantly had their expressions rewritten on their faces. Squirrel noticed that the Ponies and Frankenstein monster were staring at him with mixed expressions and there was a minute of silence.

The lavender Pony had a shocked expression with her jaw dropped and her eyes turned into dots. The marshmallow Pony had a shade of green on her face and looked like she might throw up her processed food from her throat, but she fainted, thanks to the disturbing sight she was seeing. The rainbow Pony looked a bit uneasy and started to sweat little droplets of sweat. The Pony with the western hat had an uneasy expression like the rainbow Pony, but it changed when she noticed that the marshmallow Pony fainted, so she walked up next to her unconscious body and tried to get her up. A pink Pony that was in the group of Ponies, had a happy expression for some reason and she had her mouth open in awe, but she had a open mouth smile. The Frankenstein looking monster had his eyes open in surprise at first, but it slowly formed into curious look. 

Squirrel had a lot of eyes on him and he didn't know what to do. The silence was broken when the lavender Pony cried out a yell.

"WHAT IN CELESTIA!!!?"
> Chapter 4: Welcome to Ponyville, Squirrel
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone around the site, couldn't believe what they were seeing. They were seeing a Squirrel that was showing its brain, but how could it be possible to have a skull open and your slimy mind exposed? It doesn't make sense. 

Many thoughts were running through Twilight's mind and in a panic, she yelled: "WHAT IN CELESTIA!!!?" The Ponies, Fillies, and Draconequus weren't phased by her panicked scream right by their ears, since they still had their eyes locked on the Squirrel.

"A-ah feel the same way, Twahlight." Applejack muttered to Twilight, while trying to process what she was seeing and she was still trying to wake up Rarity from her unconscious nap.

"I-It looks a little... creepy." Rainbow Dash admitted as she felt a lump go down her throat, struggling to finish her sentence.

"Well it's a little chaotic, but it's more of a scare than chaos." Discord muttered casually with an eyebrow raised.

"Yeah, it sure is spooky." Pinkie said in her usual energetic and bubbly voice. In fact, it seemed that she didn't seem fazed by the rodent showing its own brain. She happily bounced toward the Squirrel, but Scootaloo got in front of her to stop her proceeding to the Squirrel.

"Pinkie, be careful of that Squirrel." Scootaloo informed while keeping her eyes on the rodent. "It's a Zombie and will try to bi-" She stopped when she realized that Pinkie wasn't behind her when she laid her eyes on where she thought she was. She moved her attention to the rodent and she spotted Pinkie next to the Squirrel and instantly, she had a worried expression.

"Wowie, this is some nice make-up." She was bouncing around the Squirrel in a circle and was inspecting the Zombie rodent. "Whoever designed this Squirrel as a Zombie, sure loves to prank Ponies with some serious make-up effects."

"Pinkie's right." Rainbow exclaimed, wiping the uneasy expression off her face and replacing it with a confident one. She flew to the Squirrel who looked awkward about the Pony floating in front of him. "There's no such thing as a... Zombie Squirrel. I mean, it's obvious that somepony is pulling a huge prank on Ponies and the prank master herself."

"Yeah and look at this fake, but well made brain. It's so freakyyyyy." Said Pinkie as she was eyeing the rodent's brain.

Rainbow flew even closer to the Squirrel and put a hoof on its brain. "Yeah, it's just a fake... brain." Rainbow affirmed with a confident look, but there was a small fraction of doubt on her face and voice. "I-I mean this is just obviously... a... I mean it's... it's..." Doubt was slowly taking over her confidence when she couldn't think of an explanation about the Squirrel's brain being fake. 

She snapped our of her trance when she felt something touch her hoof. She laid her eyes on the touch and it turned out it was the Squirrel who put his his Squirrelly paws on it. The Squirrel pushed her hoof off its brain and surprisingly, he succeeded even though he was small. While Rainbow was surprised by his strength, she was going to be more shocked on what the Squirrel was going to next.

"Hey, don't touch my brain." Rainbow had a thunderstruck expression on her face instantly when she saw Squirrel's mouth move and heard a voice come out. Everypony and Draconequus were shocked as well, except the Cutie Mark Crusaders who didn't look fazed at all.

As fast as lighting, Rainbow flew back from the Squirrel and stopped by Applejack and Rarity who was still in her unconscious nap. "I-i-it t-talked." Rainbow said, struggling to get her words out. 

Pinkie appeared behind Rainbow like she teleported from her previous spot, but nopony seemed perplexed about it, since it was Pinkie being Pinkie and they were focused on the talking Squirrel. "Now I understand why Fluttershy likes talking to animals." Said Pinkie with her usual voice, even though she was surprised a few seconds ago. "This is so-"

"CONFUSING!!!" Twilight interrupted with a confused shout. Her eyes were the size of tiny periods. Her brows were raised and she even had her left lower eyelid twitch a little when she still had her eyes on the Squirrel. She looked like she just came out from a loony bin. Everypony, Draconequus, and the brain showing Squirrel all had their attention on her.

"It makes no sense that this Squirrel here, is walking or has its... mind showing and treats it as if nothing is wrong with it! And how in Celestia's name does it talk in our language?!" She stated as she looked like her mind might explode, literally. 

Before it might actually burst, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and put a hoof on her head to calm her down. "Discord, please tell me that this is just one of your chaotic pranks." She muttered to Discord in a pleading tone.

"As much as I love to see you worked up from my chaos, Twilight, this unfortunately isn't one of my doings." He informed her with a curious look eyed on the Squirrel.

"But... but this doesn't make sense. This can't be a simple wild Squirrel, so it has to be... no, it needs to be a new species or... something else that isn't a Squirrel, but what?"

"It's a Zombie." Apple Bloom answered Twilight's questionable muttering. Twilight snapped out of her thoughtful mutters and looked at Apple Bloom with confused, but mostly shocked expression.

'A Zombie? No, it couldn't be. It's physically impossible for a creature to exist. It... just... makes... no sense.' Twilight thought.

"A Zombie?" Rainbow asked. 

"Yes, it is a Zombie." Answered Scootaloo.

"Wait, how do you know it is a Zombie, squirt?"

"Because, it told us when we stopped it from attacking us." Rainbow had a small glare form on her face and she looked at the Squirrel. Why would this Squirrel attack her biggest fan? Before she can scold the Squirrel, he talked first before she could.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait. I didn't attack you, you attacked me." Squirrel bickered.

"Yeah because you were attacking and scaring Ponyville." Scootaloo argued back.

"Wait a secon', that rodent is the beast that is scarin' Ponyville?" Asked Applejack.

"He sure is, sis." Replied Apple Bloom.

'Of course.' Thought Twilight in fathom. She had forgotten that a monster was lurking around Ponyville because once she saw the Squirrel, she had almost lost it, thinking about the logical possibilities that the Squirrel was defying. Such as talking in her language and surviving with its brain showing from its skull. The Squirrel speaking in their language was a major discovery, but its mind exposed mind was a repulsive sight, but also a fascinating wonder in her mind. 

'This Squirrel here really is a Zombie, but how can it be? It talks, listens, and responds back like any normal Pony, meaning it still has to be in a conscience state, so it can't be a Zombie. But what could it be? I don't know, but that can wait... for now. Right now, I should resolve this situation.'

Suddenly, a weak groan was heard that caught Twilight's attention. She turned her head to the right and saw that the groaning was coming from Rarity. She finally opened her eyes and woken up from seeing the Squirrel.

Sweetie Belle noticed the groans as well and rushed to Rarity. "Rarity, you're awake." She exclaimed.

"Oh, hey Sweetie Belle. Sorry if I passed out." Rarity said as she let out her remaining groans before she fully recovered her consciousness. "I was imagining a horrid creature, it was..." She shivered at the thought of the creature she saw. "Sorry, I'm just still appalled on what I imagined. Oh, how silly of me."

Sweetie Belle had a unsure expression. Applejack who was next to Rarity as well, also had a face of uneasiness. "Uhh... Rarity, ah'm afraid that the varmin' ya saw, was real." Applejack said.

Rarity's face dropped and she had tiny dots for eyes. "Come again?"

"Yeah, look." Applejack pointed a hoof at a direction as she replied. Rarity batted her eyes toward the direction of where the hoof pointed. 

When she laid her attention on what she hoped she wouldn't see, her face became an expression of shock. It was like she had one strand of her hair sticking out of her organized mane. 

"I-i-it i-is..." She tried to make more words come out, but she trailed off when it felt like thunder struck her.

"Yep, it is real." Sweetie Belle said with a look on the Squirrel.

"But how!?" Asked Rarity. "A creature like this can't be... it can't be..."

"Real? I know, it's confusing for me as well." Twilight said as she saw that Rarity couldn't get the word out.

"And be careful, it's a dangerous Zombie." Assured Sweetie Belle.

"A Zombie?" Gasped Rarity.

"Yep and it is the monster that is attacking Ponyvillie." Said Rainbow.

The Squirrel seemed ticked off by that accusation "Hey, I didn't attack anyone!" 

"I-i-it talked!" Rarity gasped again, flabbergasted about the new information she learned about the Squirrel.

"Yep and he's responsible for the panic going around." Rainbow said with a little bit of anger in her tone

"Again, I didn't hurt anyone!" The Squirrel snapped back.

"Says the rodent who Foalnapped Fluttershy." Growled Scootaloo. 

Everypony had mixed expressions at that sentence. Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle all had glares at the Squirrel, thinking that Squirrel Foalnapped Fluttershy. Rarity had a horrified expression, thinking that the Squirrel has did terrible things to her shy friend, just thinking about it made her worried for her. Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie had their eyebrows raised from that accusation. They felt like that accusation was probably true, but that raised many questions, such as how did the Squirrel capture Fluttershy? If it is a Zombie, why did it capture and not try to eat Fluttershy. Well that was mostly Twilight's mindset, while that idea was in Pinkie's mind for a few seconds, it quickly changed into a mindset of surprise party ideas for the Zombie Squirrel. Discord had his bear paw on his muzzle to prevent his chuckles from escaping his mouth. 

However, after a few seconds, his chuckling turned into full laughter that everypony heard, even though his bear paw was still on his muzzle and mouth. He eventually removed his bear hand from his muzzle and put both of his mismatched hands on each mismatched knee. His body was bending and was laughing his head off, literally. His head was detached from his body and was floating in the same spot that his chuckles began.

Everypony had their attention on him and felt uneasy, a little shocked, and confusing on why Discord was laughing. They didn't know why Discord was laughing, since he was a close friend to Fluttershy. Twilight and her friends expected him to threaten the Squirrel when he heard that the Squirrel Foalnapped Fluttershy. They knew that Discord had a side of anger, if he found out that she was taken. They remember the Grand Gala incident where Discord got so angry with Tree Hugger for being close friends to Fluttershy, he threatened to sent her to a different dimension. And they also heard about how he acted when Fluttershy was captured, during a rescue mission with Starlight, Trixie, and Thorax.

"Uhm, Discord? Why are you laughing?" Questioned Twilight with a expression of mixed emotions of shock, confusion, and uneasiness. "I thought you would be... mad that the Squirrel Foalnapped Fluttershy." 

Discord's laughing was finally calming down after a full minute of laughter passed and his body stopped slouching. When it stood up straight, his body got its hands off its knees and connected to his head when its neck touched to the bottom of his head. 

"Oh Twilight." Chuckled Discord. "It's ridiculous, even for you, to believe that a small rodent like this... can Foalnap Fluttershy. I mean, how can a measly Squirrel possibly capture my dear, Fluttershy?"

"But we heard her scream from her cottage." Scootaloo countered.

"An' that Squirrel was near there." Apple Bloom added.

"Possibly true, but if I had to guess what happened-" Discord snapped his talon fingers and had a detective hat on his head, a detective pipe in his mouth, and a magnifying glass in his bear hand that he was peeping through. "-I would say that Fluttershy was at her cottage, enjoying her day after talking to her lovely friends and her very best friend, the chaos lord himself. When all of a sudden, she heard noises coming from all her animals and checked it out. However, when she saw what the chaos was outside, she saw the Zombie rodent and screamed on what she saw and galloped from away from it." He snapped his talon fingers again, but this time, his hat, pipe, and magnifying glass disappeared. "But your guesses are as good as mine."

Twilight an eyebrow raised from his conclusion. "That's... actually not a bad conclusion, Discord." Twilight said, a little stunned by what Discord had drawn. 

"Thanks, Twilight." Discord confidently accepted her compliment.

"I still don't trust this rodent." Rainbow said with a tone of suspicion. "I mean, look at him." She pointed her front right hoof at the Squirrel.

"Hey!" The Squirrel said, offended by Rainbow's suspicion. 

"You do have a point there, Rainbow Dash." Discord agreed. "But like I said before, I don't believe that this Squirrel did anything to Fluttershy. Not to offend you-" He snapped his talon fingers and disappeared, but reappeared behind the Squirrel, looking over him. The Squirrel noticed Discord looking over him and he was stunned on the magic he saw happen. "-my Squirrely friend, but you look weak, puny, and small to do anything to Fluttershy. In fact, if I knew her well, which I obviously do, I believe she would try to take you to a hospital because she believed that you're an animal in pain with that freaky eerie lobe peeking out." He poked the Squirrel's exposed brain a few times, which snapped the Squirrel out of its shock from seeing Discord teleport behind him. Even though he was stunned from seeing Discord behind him, he listened to what he was saying.

"That's exactly what I'm saying." Said Squirrel in agreence. "She kidnapped me, or Foalnapped me?... Whatever. The point is that she took me and I escaped from her. Now everybody, for some god damn reason, thinks I captured her. Glad you believe that I didn't do anything bad to her, Fr-" He stopped talking because he realized that he didn't know Discord's name. "Wait, uhhh... what's your name actually?" He asked.

"Oh, how truly rude of me." Discord said to himself as he snapped with his white tail tuft, which made him disappear from behind the Squirrel, but appeared in front of him, a few inches away. He bent over to shake hands with the small rodent, in which he held out his unsimilar hands and grabbed a single left hand from him. Squirrel mentally jumped from this sudden hand shake, but calmed down as he introduced himself. "My name is Discord. The reformed chaos lord himself and may I ask, who you are?" They continued to shake hands.

"Oh, well I'm Dead Squirrel or for short, you can call me Squirrel or Joe, but I prefer Squirrel." The Squirrel greeted.

After they eventually stopped shaking hands, Discord stood up to his full height. "Well Squirrel, you are certainly the most chaotic guest in Ponyville. Well, not as Chaotic as me, but still chaotic." Discord said with a self-absorbed tone, look, and smile.

"Huh, well I kinda didn't mean to cause chaos in this 'Ponyville' town." Squirrel said, thinking about the town name that sounded stupid to him, but he mentally shrugged it off his head. "But then again, I guess I can't blame them. I mean, if I saw an animal with its brain exposed, I guess I would also be a little scared. Anyways Discord, wha- wait?" He paused, as he realized something.

"Yes? Is something wrong? Discord asked with an eyebrow raised.

"Your name is Discord?" Squirrel did a double take as he asked.

"Why yes, didn't I just say I was?"

"Yeah, I know, it's just that I have something at my place that has the name 'Discord' as well."

"Oh, that Discord." Discord had a deadpan expression when he realized what Squirrel was saying. "Yeah, I know about the app. It's weird that they named it after the chaos lord himself, but what can you do to stop it from spreading dimension wide when every creep is using it to 'talk' to... children." He continued, but shivered a little bit. 'Disgusting.' He thought.

Squirrel's eye widened in surprise that it felt like he got a wake up slap. "Wait, how do you know about the app, Discord?" Squirrel asked in shock.

"Well, as much as I would love to answer your questions-" He snapped his talon fingers and disappeared from Squirrel's vision, but he realized he was behind him when he felt something wrap around his arms and basically his body, due to his small size. He turned his head a bit, to see Discord have his hands around him and he was lifted off the ground, a few feet. "-I feel like you should also answer their questions." 

Squirrel turned his head forward and saw the five Ponies looking at him with mixed expressions. "Oh right." He muttered quietly. Discord bent down and let go of Squirrel after he placed him on the ground.

There was a few seconds of silence before Squirrel said something. "So... umm, how's it going?" He asked awkwardly with a sheepish smile and a little wave with his left hand.

Pinkie being Pinkie, suddenly dashed toward Squirrel so fast, it could rival Rainbow's speed. Everypony's manes and tails flew wildly at the fierce wind that Pinkie made from her sudden dash. However, she stopped in front of Squirrel with a smile taking over most of her face. 

"Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie! Oooh, what's your favorite type of cake!? Wait, wait, let me guess, it's brain cake! Well... we don't have any brain cakes, but do you take gummy cakes!? I don't know how to make them, but I made a cake with my pet Alligator, Gummy!" She said with her usual bubbly energy. Squirrel was left with a perplexed expression, since he wasn't prepared for those questions to be dumped on him. However, Pinkie continued to talk and she was talking so fast, it was hard to decipher what she was saying at the moment. "Youshouldmeetwithhimyouwouldgetalongaslongasneitherofyouattempttobiteeachoth-" Pinkie felt something close her lips and looked at them and saw that her mouth had a zipper tightening her mouth shut.

"Now Pinkie, I know you're curious about our chaotic guest, but you should remember to give him a chance to answer your questions." Discord informed her as he unzipped her mouth zipper.

"Okie dokie lokie." Comprehended Pinkie as her mouth zipper disappeared after Discord snapped his fingers.







The Mane 6 (minus Fluttershy and Pinkie) and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were observing the interaction that Squirrel was having and they had jumbled thoughts.

"He hasn't tried to bite anypony yet, but I'm suspicious of him." Scootaloo muttered to the rest of the Crusaders.

"Ah can say the same." Agreed Apple Bloom.

"Me too." Sweetie Belle also agreed.

While the Crusaders were talking to themselves, Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow, and Rarity were having their own conversation.

"He's interestin' for a... zombie rodent." Applejack muttered to Twilight.

"Yeah, he's a weird Squirrel and is definitely planning something." Rainbow said, hearing the conversation Applejack was starting. Rainbow had a skeptical glare and tone.

"I see what you mean, darling." Rarity said to Rainbow. "But what if this... Squirrel is a real kind gentle Po- rodent and not a horrid liar?"

Rainbow was about to respond, but closed her mouth when she realized, she didn't know what to say. After a few seconds of trying to think of a plan, she finally responded. "Well... we could just... uhhh..."

"You don't know what to do, do ya?" Applejack said with a deadpan expression and a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, I don't know." She admitted with a flat tone.

"Well I have an idea on how we should approach this." Twilight stated, which made the other three ponies huddle closer to her, interested in hearing her out. "We be nice and friendly like our usual selves, but keep an eye on the Squirrel. Applejack?" 

Applejack nodded and understood what she meant. "Ah know what ya mean, Twahlight." The Element of Honesty said with an understood tone.

Twilight took a deep breath on what was going to come. "Alright, let's do this." She and the other 3 Ponies walked and was approaching the Squirrel who was dealing with Pinkie's and Discord's antics. 

The Cutie Mark Crusaders noticed that the 4 Elements of Harmony were getting closer to the Squirrel.

"They're approachin' the Squirrel." Apple Bloom pointed out.

"They must be curious about him." Sweetie Belle reckoned.

"We should check it out as well." Scootaloo said.

"Ah agree." Agreed Apple Bloom as she nodded her head.

"Me too." Sweetie Belle also agreed and nodded her head.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders started walking toward Squirrel and was behind Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash a few feet behind him. They were about to learn about their squirrely guest a whole lot more.







"Wait, did you just make a zipper appear on her mouth?" Squirrel asked in a little bit of astonishment.

"Why yes, my rodent friend." Discord affirmed.

"And about you teleporting and summoning other stuff, how did you do that?"

"Well you see, I am a lord of chaos. Therefore-" He stopped his statement as he snapped his talon fingers and disappeared. Squirrel quickly found out where he went when he felt himself being lifted from the ground by his arms. He turned his head and looked behind him and saw Discord holding him by his arms, Titanic style. "-I create chaos."

"Yeah, you should check out the chaos that Dizzy make." Said Pinkie with a more energetic tone. "He can make cotton candy clouds, chocolate rain, and cotton candy clouds that rain chocolate rain!" She licked around her lips, imagining the sweet vision in her head.

"Well, Pinkie has said it better than me, so I'm sure you get the idea of chaos magic, right?" Discord said as he placed Squirrel on the ground.

Squirrel was a bit perplexed, amazed, and confused for a few seconds. After a few seconds of silence, he finally gave an answer to Discord. "So... you have... chaos magic?"

"Correct." 

"Like actual magic? The one where you can actually float shit, but not the ones that are staged?"

"Something like that, but correct."

"Woah, that's actually amazing. What can you do with your magic?"

"Well, I can do absolutely anything."

"Wait a minute, did you say anything?"

"Anything."

"Anything?"

"Yes, anything."

"Anything?"

"Anything."

"Anything?"

"I'll get you and it'll look like a bloody accident." Pinkie interrupted with an annoyed and angry look and tone as she appeared in front of Squirrel's face, almost like she teleported to him. She also had a pie knife in her right hoof.

Squirrel was thrown off by the sudden tone from Pinkie and he had a scared look on his face. "What?" He asked in a high pitched voice.

Pinkie's look and tone instantly changed into her usual happy look and tone. "Sorry, it was a reference, I couldn't help myself." She said as she shoved the pie knife into her mane.

Squirrel was now confused and was questioning: 'WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE TALKING ABOUT!?' Discord noticed his confused expression and decided to act.

"Don't worry about it. Pinkie gets chaotic sometimes, even for me." He assured Squirrel.

"Ok..." Squirrel said, still thrown off, but shook it off. "Well I like your magic, I didn't even know that shit existed."

"Well, now you know, also I suggest that you tone down on the language. We don't want little Foals spewing those naughty words, do we?"

"Ok, I guess I should. Wait, but I still have to ask, how do you know about the app, Disco-"

"Hey!" Squirrel was interrupted by a familiar raspy voice behind him. He turned around and saw the four Ponies that he had honestly forgotten were still around. They were approaching him and stopped a few inches away from him. Rainbow, who was closer to him, had a slight glare locked on to him. It looked like she was going to talk, but Applejack beat her to it.

"Howdy, pardner." Greeted Applejack as she inched a little closer to Squirrel. Unlike Rainbow, she had a friendly tone and expression right now.

"Umm... hi?" He said awkwardly, not knowing what to do next, he asked a question, well actually, he tried to. "So... how's it going... uhh... I don't know your name."

"Oh, well my name is Applejack, sugarcube."

"Uh huh."

Since Applejack was introducing herself, Twilight decided to introduce herself as well. "I'm Twilight Sparkle." She introduced herself as she saw Squirrel look at her with an awkward look. 

'It looks like it, or he rather, is a little awkward about the situation he's in.' She thought observingly. She then had curiosity fill her thoughts when whe laid her attention on Squirrel's brain and was amazed. 'Fascinating, the brain doesn't look like it's loose from it's skull. There must be something more to this Squirrel. I need to do some tests and find out. I need to find out.'

While Twilight was lost in her own world, Rarity introduced herself. "I'm Rarity and darling, might I say, you seem to have a questionable fashion choice." She said in a friendly tone.

"Huh? Oh, are you... talking about my bandana?" He asked.

"Yes and I understand that you're a walking... *Gulp* c-corpse, but if you're going to act like a civilized one, you need the proper attire for it. Might I make you one?"

"While I appreciate the offer, I think I might have to pass on that."

Rarity pouted a little bit and before she could let out a huff, Rainbow decided to introduce herself. 

"And finally, but not least, the fastest flier in Equestria and in the Wonderbolts: Rainbow Dash." Rainbow confidently introduced, even though she had a glare on him earlier, but now she had her self confidence take over.

"Uh huh, so question: What's the Wonderbolts?" Squirrel asked.

Rainbow's confident look dropped and was shifted into a glare. "Have you been living under a rock?! The Wonderbolts are the most amazing and awesome team of fliers Equestria has ever seen!"

"Ok, ok. Sorry for asking." Squirrel said in a sarcastic tone.

"And I'm Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie introduced herself.

"Pinkie, I thought you already introduced yourself?" Rainbow said.

"I did, I just thought it would be fun to introduce myself again." Rainbow groaned at Pinkie's antics.

After Pinkie's second introduction, Squirrel noticed in the corner of his eye, a few familiar Fillies watching him, so he turned his full attention to them. He noticed that they were narrowing their eyes on him. Once they saw Squirrel stare at them, their eyes widened and they didn't know what to do for a second, but Apple Bloom decided to make a move first.

"Umm... hi, again." Apple Bloom greeted with a sheepish smile and awkward tone.

"Hi." Squirrel said reluctantly as he remembered that the Fillies tried to capture him. "So... what's your guys' names?"

Apple Bloom's awkwardness was washed over with enthusiasm as she introduced herself. "Well I'm Apple Bloom."

Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle also had their awkwardness replaced with enthusiasm because they also introduced themselves without a beat.

"I'm Scootaloo." Scootaloo said.

"And I'm Sweetie Belle." Sweetie Belle said.

"And we're the CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!!!" Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom all yelled with enthusiasm.

Squirrel covered his only ear from all the enthusiastic yelling and gritted his teeth. "Jesus!" He said to himself. After the Cutie Mark Crusaders stopped yelling, he stopped covering his ear. "Ok, next time, tone down the introduction."

"Oh, sorry." Apple Bloom apologized.

"It's fine." Squirrel said as he got the idea to introduce himself to the other Ponies since they introduced themselves properly. After he cleared his throat, he said: "Well if you guys haven't heard my name yet, it's Squirrel. You can call me Dead Squirrel or Joe if you want, but if you don't wanna, just call me Squirrel."

"Well it's nice to meet you Squirrel." Said Twilight in a friendly tone, however that quickly changed into a questioning tone when she asked a question. "But I have to ask, why did you scare the Ponies in Ponyville?"

"Well I'm sure my exposed brain isn't the reason why they ran away from me." Squirrel said in a sarcastic tone, which made Twilight form a slight glare from the attitude in his comment. "But yeah, once they saw me, they got the fu-" He had almost forgotten that there were little Fillies around, so he quickly changed the word he was about to say. "-fun out of there."

"Ok." Twilight looked at Applejack and she also stared back at her. Applejack did a little nod, like she signaled that he was clear of a crime.

"So why is your name Joe?" Rainbow asked suddenly.

"What?" Squirrel said confusingly.

"Your name Joe. Why can we call you Joe?"

Squirrel sweated a little when he realized he didn't have the answer ready. Sure, he could just simply say that he was a human who got turned into a Squirrel, but he believed that it would lead to more questions for the Ponies ask and they would eventually think he's making stuff up. He's also pretty sure that they don't know what the fuck humans are and if they did find out, they would hate them, since they do "things" to Ponies in his world. After a few seconds, he finally had an answer ready. 

"W-well I like having a cool... nickname?"

Element of Honesty or not, everypony could tell that there was doubt in his voice. "Hol' on sugarcube, why are ya lyin'?" Applejack asked with a bit of suspicion.

"Yeah, what are you hiding?" Rainbow asked with a scolding tone as she made accusations toward Squirrel. "Are you planning to eat our brains with our guard down!? Or are you planning to spread a Zombie infection throughout Equestria!?"

"What!? No, no. I don't plan to do any of those things." He assured.

"Then darling, why are you lying about a simple question about your name?" Rarity asked.

"Well you see..."

"Twilight! Girls!" Twilight, her friends, and Squirrel all heard a familiar shy voice yell out. Twilight turned around and saw Fluttershy walking toward her with a worried look. Fluttershy stopped a few inches in front of her.

"Fluttershy? What are you doing here?" Twilight asked.

Fluttershy paused for a second as she tried to get the courage to speak her words while washing the thoughts of her friends thinking she is crazy out. 

"Oh, well... after I went back to my cottage to tend to my animals, I-I found this Squirrel and it was... terrifying. His... brain was showing and I tried to take it to the hospital, but it... ran away. Oh Twilight, I know it sounds crazy, but I need you to help me find him."

Twilight's eyes widened when Fluttershy mentioned the Squirrel and would've had curious thoughts in her head, if it wasn't for the fact that she saw Fluttershy's expression become more saddened, so she reassured her. "Well actually, we found the Squirrel."

Fluttershy's face instantly became a happy one. "Wait, really?"

"Yeah, we did."

Twilight was pulled into a hug from Fluttershy's front hooves and for a shy Mare, she had the strength of a Bear, even Harry wouldn't compare to her Bearhug.

"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Twilight smiled, even though she was in a bone crushing hug. "No problem, Fluttershy. Also, can you stop hugging me so hard? You're crushing my back."

Fluttershy stopped hugging Twilight due to embarrassment taking over her. "Oh my, I'm sorry."

"It's alright, Fluttershy." Twilight smiled in reassurement.

After Fluttershy recovered from her embarrassment, she had one question to ask. "So where's the Squirrel?"

"Oh well, i-"

"It's right here." Rainbow interrupted as she moved to the side from where she was previously. After she moved out of the way, Squirrel saw Fluttershy and had small dotted eyes when she the buttery Pony.

"Oh fuck." Squirrel muttered to himself, completely forgetting there were Fillies around.

Fluttershy had a relieved expression when she galloped toward Squirrel and stopped in front of him. Before he can say anything to her, she lowered her head and nuzzled her face on his right face cheek and put her left front hoof behind his head to nuzzle him properly. "Thank Celestia, you're okay." She said happily, but was changed into a calm, but small scolding voice. "Please don't run away like that."

Squirrel was just seeing a buttery coat molest his eye and couldn't escape it with Fluttershy's hoof pressed on the back of his head. 'God damn it, when will this Horse fuck off?' He thought in annoyance.

Fluttershy stopped nuzzling Squirrel as she realized that he still had his brain exposed. "Oh my, I forgot, we need to get you to a hospital, fast." She said in a panicked tone as she was about to pick up Squirrel. 

However, Squirrel saw what she was going to do and before she could shift her hooves to pick him up properly, he pinched a hoof that was gripped on his left side of his torso. 

She winced and let out a little yelp, which made her stop trying to scoop up Squirrel.

Squirrel then ran away from her and stopped when he was way farther from Fluttershy. He looked at her with a disapproving look as he turned around to look at her. "No, I'm not going to some hospital, where they are going to do some freaky operations to my brain, no way." He disagreed with a disapproving tone.

After Fluttershy recovered from Squirrel's pinch attack, she responded back. "B-but you look hurt and your brain is exposed and you might..." She couldn't even get the words out of her throat as her eyes became like a puppy's eyes pleading and she also made some whimpering noises.

Squirrel just rolled his eyes in annoyance and crossed his arms in annoyance. "Look, I'm fine, it's just my natural appearance."

Fluttershy was about to deflect his argument, but Applejack stepped in, since she saw Fluttershy's teary expression. "Fluttershy, the rodent is tellin' the truth... somewhat." Applejack muttered that last part to herself, since she felt Squirrel telling somewhat of the truth, however she wanted to focus on Fluttershy's concerns before she questioned Squirrel about his "natural" appearance.

Fluttershy looked at Applejack with a face of uncertainty and looked back at Squirrel. "B-but... but..."

"Trust me, sugarcube, he's alright."

"But how?"

"Because he's a Zombie." Rainbow added.

"A... a... Zombie?" Fluttershy questioned in a panicked tone and expression.

"Yup, I'm a Zombie that knows what he's doing, so yeah, I'm not injured." Squirrel replied.

Fluttershy had a little relief that Squirrel was okay, not hurt, and not a bad Zombie, but she now had questions that needed answers and Twilight also felt the same.

"Anyways, I still have more questions to ask." Twilight said to Squirrel. "Ok, so ho-"

"Darling." Rarity interrupted Twilight's question, which caught her attention toward Rarity.

"Uhh, yes Rarity?"

"As much as I want to question that Squirrel dear, I feel like we should go to a more appropriate place than the middle of town."

"Oh, right. Well then, I think we should go the castle."

"Wait, what about Ponyville?" Applejack asked.

"What do you mean, Applejack?"

"Ah mean, somepony has to calm down Ponyville about the monster."

"Oh, you're right."

"So what do we do, darling?" Rarity asked Twilight.

Twilight thought for a few seconds until she got the answer. "Ok, you girls head to the castle and take the threat with you, I'll calm down Ponyville that the threat is secured and isn't dangerous."

"I have a name you know!" Squirrel criticized.

"Ok, sugarcube we're on it." Applejack agreed to Twilight's plan, completely ignoring Squirrel, who had a deadpan expression.

"You can count on us Twily." Pinkie said.

Fluttershy lightly hovered toward Discord. "Umm... Discord?" She said in her usual shy and low voice.

"Yes, my dear Fluttershy?" Discord asked.

"You wouldn't mind if you... umm... teleported us to the castle... wouldn't you?"

Discord chuckled at the cute shyness that Fluttershy showed. "Not at all." He positioned his lion fingers to snap.

"Wait, wait, I don't know how I fe-" Squirrel didn't finish his sentence when Discord's fingers snapped and made him, Squirrel, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and the Mane 6 (minus Twilight.)

Once Twilight saw them disappear, she sighed. "Oh Celestia, this is going to take a while to explain." She said to herself as she turned around and saw the empty ghost town that Ponyville became. "I just hope there isn't more chaos like this." 

Oh boy, was she wrong. Very. Wrong.
> Chapter 5: The Braindead Truth
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the Castle of Friendship, Spike was in the throne room and was asleep on his mini throne with some light snores. The only sound filling the silence was his snores until a door opened.

Out of the door from the hallway, came Starlight Glimmer who had a little concerned expression. Once she used her aura to open the door, she looked around the room and noticed that Spike was asleep in his throne. She galloped toward Spike, still with a concerned expression. After she made it to the sleeping dragon on his throne, she tried to wake him up, calmy. "Uhh, Spike? Spike?"

"Give me... five more minutes." Spike tiredly said with his eyes opening slightly, but his eyelids closed back down. 

"Spike, this is important, where is Twilight?" Starlight's words didn't seem to get through his mind, since he was still snoring. 

Seeing that she wasn't getting a reaction from him, besides tired snoring, she lifted Spike up with her magical aura by his tail. He was floating upside down by his tail a few inches from his throne. Starlight shook him a little bit with forceful aura, but not violently. Once she started shaking him, he instantly had his eyelids open and was awake.

"Huh, what... what's going on?" Questioned Spike worriedly, not knowing who was lifting him upside down.

Spike then was flipped back to normal and was descended back into the soft cushion of his throne. Once he was set on the cushion, he saw who levitated him. "Starlight?" He said confusingly.

"Sorry Spike, about the rude awakening, but I wanted to know where Twilight was." Starlight said with concern.

"Oh, Twilight said she was going to test something about dimension travel or something like that."

"Dimension travel?"

"Yeah, she said she was going to test a spell that allowed her to travel to other dimensions with her friends and Discord as well. *Yawn* They should be coming back. They said they would be back in thirty minutes." Spike yawned as he shifted into a sleeping position and closed his eyelids, so he could catch more Z's. Starlight however, still had a worried expression.

"What time did they leave the castle?" Starlight asked as she turned her head and looked at a clock in the room.

"*Yawn* 11:20, why are you asking?" Starlight's expression became more concerned when Spike mentioned the time Twilight and her friends departed.

"Because it's 1:06." Spike's eyes shot up wide in surprise and revealed tiny dots for eyes.

"What?" Spike instantly sat up and looked at the clock in the room and it did in fact, show that it was 1 o'clock. "They been gone for almost two hours?!"

"Yeah, they have been and I'm a little worried." Starlight's voice had more concern taking over.

"No need to panic, I'm pretty sure that Twilight and the others are just... ummm... caught up in... umm..." Spike tried to think of an excuse, but there was doubt in it.

"Spike, I-I-I think they might of..." Starlight shuddered at the thought that her friends ended up in a different dimension and are lost in it.

Spike knew what she was saying and denied that possibility. "No! I'm pretty sure that they just forgot to come back." However, he was sweating a bit.

"I don't know, Spike, but we have to find out if they are okay or not." Starlight turned around to face the door, so she could leave.

Spike jumped down from his throne with a concerned expression on his face. "Y-yeah, we should check it out."

As Spike and Starlight were about to head out the door, they heard a poof sound and saw a quick flash of white. Once the white light flashed, they saw the Mane 6 (minus Twilight), Discord, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

"-el about-" Squirrel paused when he realized that his eye were seeing a completely different sight, compared to the view that he previously saw. "-teleporting." His eye was a tiny dot and was trying to comprehend that he was teleported and experienced it for the first time in real life.

"Sorry, were you saying something?" Discord asked Squirrel with a bit of sarcasm. 

"Girls! You're okay!" Starlight and Spike rushed toward them and they had a huge relief, not knowing or caring on who Discord was talking to.

"Uhh, why wouldn't we be, sugarcube?" Applejack asked.

"Because you were gone for almost two hours. Twilight said that you should be back in half an hou-" Spike stopped announcing his concerns when he realized that Twilight wasn't with her friends. "Wait, where's Twilight?" Spike asked in complete panic, clearly worried about her Alicorn sibling.

"Don't worry, my Spikey-wikey." Rarity softly laid a hoof on the top of Spike's scaly head as she reassured him, which made him relax and blush a little bit from her sudden touch. "Twilight is just easing down the town from the panic that was arising throughout town." Starlight had a bit of relief in her head, but she also had confusion as well.

"Why is Twilight calming down the town?" Starlight asked, confused on what Rarity was talking about.

"Oh, well there was a threat in Ponyville, but it was a terrible misunderstanding." Fluttershy informed.

"Threat?" More confusion slowly took over Starlight's mind and was showing on her face.

"Yeah, we thought it would be a big, scary, mean old monster, but the monster is small and isn't a meanie at all." Pinkie said happily.

"Yeah, we took care if it, no problem." Rainbow assured.

"Oh, that's a relief." Starlight said to herself, calming down from the panic and confusion that was in her head. Spike however, would make her confusion and panic spike (Haha, get it?) when he got the answer to his question.

"Wait, so what was the threat?" 

"Oh, well..." Applejack paused, not knowing how to tell them.

"Actually, I think it is best if we show you." Discord said.

"What?" Starlight confusingly uttered.

Discord moved to the side and when he was away from his previous spot, Starlight and Spike laid their eyes on a Squirrel that was behind Discord. However, this Squirrel had an exposed brain and was looking at them. 

Their eyes were small and they had shocked expressions written over their face. Their jaws were dropped as well, meaning that they couldn't get any words out of their throat at all. 

A few seconds passed and Starlight and Spike said nothing, until eventually Rainbow checked on them out of concern.

"Uhh, are you guys okay?" Rainbow asked, noticing their shocked faces.

"Are we okay!?" Starlight exclaimed as she had her left eyelid twitch. "Y-you b-brought a Squirrel with its brain exposed, how can we be okay!?" She then stopped after she finished her sentence when she realized that Twilight's friends were showing her the threat of Ponyville, face to face.

"Wait, did you say this is the threat that was in Ponyville?"

"Umm... yeah." Applejack reluctantly answered, not liking what might happen next when she answered Starlight's question.

"T-then why did you bring it here?" It almost sounded like Starlight lost her voice.

"Hey, I have a name, I'm not an 'it,' ok?" Squirrel informed, offended by Starlight's concerns.

Instantly, Spike's and Starlight's expression filled with more shock.

"It talked!?" Spike exclaimed in pure astonishment.

"Oh yeah, we forgot to mention that Squirrely talks. Isn't it fun!? Now we know how Fluttershy feels." Pinkie said with excitement.

"Y-yes, but also... how can it... what!?" Spike replied, who still had tiny dots for eyes.

"Well, now you know, surprise!"

"Discord, this isn't one of your chaos tricks, is it?" Starlight asked, while a little bit of worry was displayed in her voice.

"I appreciate that you think I would do a trick like this, Starlight. However, this isn't my doing, unfortunately." Discord confirmed.

"But how can this be possible!? This can't be possible! This shouldn't be possible!"

"Geez, I can tell that Twilight taught her too well." Rainbow muttered to Applejack in a teasing tone and smile. Applejack had a deadpan expression that just read "really?" Rainbow's smug smile dropped and was replaced with a confused face. "What?"

"Well, the thing is that we don't know ourselves." Rarity casually informed.

"Yeah, we don't know how to expose his mind!" Pinkie said.

*Ba-doom ching* 

A few drum noises were made, which caught everyone's attention. They saw that it was Discord who made it with his drum set and drum sticks that he summoned, however it disappeared. "Someone had to do it." He said with no regrets.

"Anyways... we should be askin' it some questio-"

"*Ahem*" Squirrel cleared his throat, interrupting Applejack, who had an annoyed look.

"*Sigh* Ah meant, we should be askin' Squirrel some questions, while we wait for Twahlight." Squirrel had a pleased look, but was replaced with a curious one when Starlight asked a question.

"Alright, but how can we trust him?" Starlight looked at Squirrel with a glare of suspicion.

"Because I didn't hurt anyone. Even though I look scary, it doesn't mean I'm a 'monster' lurking around 'Ponyville.'"

Starlight narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

"He's the tellin' the truth, Starlight." Applejack confirmed.

"*Sigh* If you're saying he's good... then I believe you." Starlight said with a smile, which made Applejack smiled back at her.

"Sooo... are you some kind of... good Zombie?" Spike asked awkwardly 

"Yes, I am." Squirrel answered casually.

"Really?" Spike's awkwardness was slowly being replaced with curiosity.

"Yep."

"That is cool, but also really creepy, but still cool."

"While I feel the same way, how's that possible?" Starlight's curiosity asked.

"Well... that's hard to explain." Squirrel said.

"What do ya mean?" Asked Apple Bloom.

"Wellll..." Squirrel paused for a few seconds and didn't respond. ".. nevermind. You wouldn't believe me." He mumbled that last sentence to himself.

"What!?" Rainbow questioned as she couldn't quite hear him.

"Nothing." Rainbow narrowed her eyes at his reply.

"Sugarcube, tell us what ya said." Applejack said in a little bit of a demanding tone.

"And why the heck should I?" Squirrel was starting to get a little defensive.

"Because how can we trust you, if ya not honest with us." Applejack replied in a assertive tone. 

"Yeah." Apple Bloom agreed.

Squirrel was about to snap back, but mentally paused. He could just deny it, but then they would keep asking again and again and again and again, non stop. Then again, they would probably ask more and more questions and stop trusting him, if he told the truth that he was a Human. He kept arguing in his head and came to the conclusion to his decision.

"*Sigh* Alright, I-I'm... going to... tell you... the truth." He hesitated, not sure on what's going to happen.

Everyone had their focus on him and waited for him to respond. 

'No response, they're fucking serious.' He thought observingly. 'Ok, time to fucking to do this shit.'

"Ok... the truth is... that... t-that... I'm... I'm..."

"You're what!?" Scootaloo slightly demanded, stopping Squirrel from trying to get his words out.

He took a few seconds and then proceeded to finish his sentence. "...I'm... a... human." He mumbled, feeling actually nervous.

"What!?" Rainbow questioned, not hearing the rodent's low mumble.

"What did you say?" Starlight interrogated, curious about what Squirrel mumbled, that she didn't quite hear.

"I... s-said... I'm... I'm... I'm..." Squirrel struggled, which made Rainbow lose her patience.

"Can you quit stalling already!?" Rainbow growled. That made Squirrel snap back and yell as a response.

"Fine! The truth is that I'm a human! There, happy!?"

This made everybody had a shocked expression. They didn't believe what he had said, at first. Spike asked a question, while he was still in a state of shock.

"Wait, did you just say that you were-"

"Yes!" Squirrel rudely interrupted. 

Starlight opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out. However, she had many questions that she needed answered. How did this Squirrel know about the Hu-mins that Twilight talked about? How did a Squirrel like him turned into one? How is that possible? Before she could think of more questions that needed to be answered, Rainbow denied this possibility. 

"I-I don't believe you!" She doubted as she stuttered with shock still in her voice.

"Yeah!" Scootaloo agreed with her sisterly idol. "But, uhh... what's a Hu-min?" She asked the other Cutie Mark Crusaders with a confused tone.

"I don't know." Sweetie Belle said.

"Ah don't know as well." Apple Bloom added.

Applejack heard their confused huddle and reassured them in a whisper, even though she was still in a state of shock. "Ah'll tell ya girls later."

"Y-you're a H-Human?" Spike stammered out, not being able to process what he had heard from the rodent.

"Yes! I just said that!" Squirrel said in annoyance.

"I... don't know if I could believe that."

"Yeah, I don't believe it as well." Rainbow agreed.

Everypony had their doubts and didn't believe Squirrel was telling the truth, except Applejack who had her narrowed eyes on Squirrel, studying him to see if he was telling the truth.

"Hey! I told the truth and said that it sounded too crazy for you guys to believe." Squirrel said with a little firm tone. "So don't say I didn't warn you."

"B-but how can that possibly happen?" Rarity asked with a stammer.

"Yeah, how can a Human become a Zombie Squirrel? Rainbow asked with suspicion.

'I knew they were going to ask more fucking questions.' Squirrel thought in frustration. Squirrel really didn't want to answer more questions because he was getting tired, hungry, and thristy from all the chasing and shenanigans that he had experienced today. He thought for a few seconds, ignoring the confused, suspicious, and curious stares he was receiving from the Ponies, a Dragon, and a Draconequus. He finally got the idea on what to say and tiredly responded.

"*Sigh* Ok, so to put it simply, I was just relaxing with my friends, you know, just relaxing and playing games with each other. The-"

"Ooh, ooh! What game were you playing with your friends!? Was it a fun game!? Was it a board game!?" Pinkie interrupted in excitement, which made Squirrel form a deadpan expression and mutter a curse to himself. "I don't know why it's called a board game when it's a fun game to pl-"

*Snap*

A zipper appeared on Pinkie's lips and were sealed shut. It was Discord who magically summoned the zipper on her lips. "Sorry about that, carry on." He said, seeing that Squirrel was almost done with this shit.

"Ok... so, as I was saying, I was with my friends when all of a sudden, some kind of beam that looked like lightning came out of no where and took me. Then I wake up and find myself like this-" Squirrel pointed at himself. "-and I'm in Pony town."

"It's Ponyville." Starlight informed.

"Sure whatever."

"Hmmm..." Rainbow narrowed her eyes. "I don't know if I believe that."

"*Sigh* I literally just told you that I would tell you the truth." Squirrel tiredly said.

"I don't know. A random lightning strike just comes out and strikes you, it seems fishy to me." Rainbow turned around and faced toward Applejack. "What do you think Applejack?"

"Ah think he's tellin' the truth y'all." Applejack enlightened.

Everybody had a face of astonishment to see that the information was true. They didn't know how to process it, so they stayed silent for a few seconds. 

Starlight was about to break the silence, but the door behind the Mane 6 (minus Twilight) and the Cutie Mark Crusaders sounded like it was being opened slightly.

Everybody turned their heads the door and saw that Twilight was opening the door.

"Hey everyone, I'm back." Twilight said as she peeked her head out of the door, not aware of the information that was in the room. However, she noticed that everyone had a shocked expression. She had a curious expression and was curious on what happened while she was busy. "Uhh, what did I miss?"

"Y-you missed a lot, Twahlight... A Lot." Applejack said with shock still on her face.







In the dark Everfree Forest, was just silence, pure silence. The only noise active in the part of the forest was a little bit of wind. Bush leaves and tree leaves were flowing, thanks to the wind. However, there was a noise that was made that wasn't the wind's doing. It sounded like it was footsteps and it was getting louder than the wind's small breeze. Then some rustling came from a bush and what came out wasn't a Pony, Timberwolf, or any other species that lived in Equestria.

What came out of the bush was a figure that appeared to have the shape and physique of a Human man. He pushed the leaves and branches from the center of the bush with his two hands. He went through the opening that he made from the bush and revealed his features in the dim sunlight that the dark trees were making.

The man had a peachy skin tone with black roughed up hair on the top of his head. As well as a hockey mask covering his face with the mask having three red triangles around the mask. The mask also had holes on top of the mask and on the bottom of it. And it appeared to have eye holes for the man to see through with his blue eyes. His clothing choice consisted on have a black t shirt, a blue front open sweater covering the shirt, black hard pants, and as well as some black shoes.

This man was a mysterious figure and was indeed mysterious. However, if you have been on YouTube before, you probably would recognize this hockey masked man as the teddy lover, delirious gamer, and member of the Vanoss Crew. If you don't know his name, he's the one and only: H2O Delirious.

Delirious was walking in a single direction, while he was slouching and looking down at the grass. 'This is taking fucking forever to find a way out of this forest.' He tiredly thought.

He was tired from walking in this forest he was in. He couldn't keep track on how many minutes he was in this forest. He probably reached one hour on being in this forest, maybe even two hours. 

He didn't know how the fuck he ended up in this forest or on how he became his avatar. It was fucking insane when he realized that he had become it and was freaking out. He calmed down after many minutes, but he was still amazed, shocked, and curious on how he perfectly transformed into his Delirious avatar, from head to toe. 

All Delirious remembered before he passed out was that he was hit by purple lightning. It was weird because he was just playing a game of Lethal Company that he was streaming for his fans. All of a sudden, his in game avatar was struck by purple lightning, which confused him, but what happened after the lightning struck him, was weird. His PC's screen went black, he was disconnected from the Discord, and his recording stopped. After a few seconds of that happening, purple lightning came out of the screen and it looked similar to the one in game. Before he could process what to do, he was hit by the lightning and passed out. And that was all he could remember.

After shaking the things he did before he was in the forest out of his thoughts, Delirious started to talk to himself. "I wonder how many steps before I can find someone or a way out of this fucking forest?...... *Sigh* This is taking forever." He tiredly said to himself, feeling a little bit of sanity draining from being in this dark forest labyrinth.

"This is going to take fucking forever." Feeling his patience almost reaching his limit. Delirious didn't know how long he needed to walk for to get the heck out of the forest, but if he didn't find an exit in the next minute, he sweared that he was going to-

*Bonk*

"OWW... WHAT THE-" Delirious lifted his head to yell at the thing or person that he had bumped into. However, he stopped trying to shout at the thing he bumped into when he realized what exactly what it was.

He laid his eyes on a yellow steel railing connected on a steel joist floor that was connected to a big metal gray box. It was a few feet up and was not touching the ground, which meant that Delirious hit his head on the factory flooring. 

"-fuckkkkk..." He finished his sentence in confusion, not knowing what to say. He was in a trance, not knowing what to do. After a few seconds of confused thinking, he finally made a decision and to see what the fuck he had bumped into.

Delirious slowly inspected the big metal box by going to the right side of it. He noticed that there was a yellow steel ladder that allowed him to climb up and walk on the factory floor. 

"Wait." Delirious muttered to himself as he realized that this metal box felt familiar to him. He reluctantly climbed up the ladder and was standing on the steel joist flooring. Instantly, he had noticed that there was another ladder, but this one led to the top of the metal box.

Not wanting to waste any more time to see why this box was familiar to him, Delirious climbed up the second ladder and was on top. He looked around and noticed that there was an antenna and was shocked to see it. This box was suddenly becoming more familiar to him.

"But it- but it can't be." Delirious talked to himself, not sure if he should believe whatever he was seeing right now. He stood on the top of the box for a few seconds as he turned his head toward the things that we also on the top of it. He had one more thing to check if this box was really what he thought it was. 

Delirious turned to his right and swiftly ran toward the edge of the box's roof. Once he made it to the edge, he dropped down and landed his feet on the joist floor. And he turned around, looked behind himself and what he saw confirmed that this wasn't a box, It was a space ship.

What Delirious saw was the entrance to the inside of the ship and he couldn't believe what he saw. There was a big red cabinet, some screens at the end of the ship, and other stuff that he couldn't believe that he was seeing was seeing in front of his eyes.

"No... fucking... way..." Delirious muttered in astonishment as he confirmed that this was indeed what he thought it was.
> Chapter 6: Oh Ship!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

"This taste... amazing." Squirrel muffled excitingly as he was enjoying a bite out of a peanut and jelly sandwich in his mouth. He was sitting comfortably on Spike's throne with a plate of one wide triangle shaped PB&J sandwich. Squirrel had a bitten sandwich in his tiny brown hands with some peanut butter and some jelly mess splattered around his mouth. 

Squirrel didn't know why these sandwiches tasted so heavenly. Maybe it was how the Ponies here make the sandwiches or maybe it was his new Squirrel physique that made him want more of this, but he was not complaining.

Squirrel was finally starting to feel relaxed after being interrogated to the brain (no pun intended.) When he saw Sunlight or Twilight (he forgot her name) walk in the room, he knew he would have to answer her questions or inform her on what she missed. However, before she can directly ask a question to him, he told everyone that he was getting stressed, hungry, and exhausted from all the things he witnessed today and needed a break. Sunlight or Twilight disagreed, since she wanted answers immediately. However, Fluttershy agreed that they should let him take a break. She felt bad for thinking that he was a hurt animal and for practically Foalnapping him, so she wanted to make up for that. Sunlight still felt like she should get some answers, so Applejack told her that she'll tell her everything about him while he relaxes. And Sunlight agreed to these terms, so Squirrel requested for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as a meal.

Squirrel took another bite of his PB&J sandwich as he swallowed the previous bite. "Spike, was it?" He muffled to the young Dragon with a piece of a sandwich in his thick cheeks (not those kinds of cheeks.)

"Yes?" Spike said in a bit of a questioning tone.

He swallowed his piece. "Thanks for the sandwiches." 

"Oh, no problem." Spike accepted the thanks.

"Hey, so do you have milk? I'm getting kind of thristy." 

Before Spike could answer, a snap was heard and something appeared in front of Squirrel's eye. It was a glass of chocolate milk that appeared and was levitating in front of him.

"Do you accept chocolate milk?"

Squirrel turned his head to right to the familiar voice and it turned out was Discord. He was sitting on Sunlight's throne and was looking down at Squirrel with a small grin. Squirrel looked at the chaotic chocolate milk that Discord had summoned and took it.

"Uhh... sure, why not." Squirrel shrugged as he grabbed the glass and poured the milk down his throat. After he was done drinking half of the glass of chocolate milk down, he smacked his lips from the sweet taste and released a little relaxed "ahhhh."

While Squirrel was enjoying his milk and sandwiches with Spike and Discord by him, everyone was doing their own things as well. The Cutie Mark Crusaders asked for some sandwiches as well and were nibbling them when they got them, while they were sitting on an individual throne. Fluttershy was watching Squirrel eat his sandwiches and drink his milk, which made her silently squeak excitedly from the cuteness the rodent made from his noms and gulps, even though she tried her best to ignore his exposed brain. Rarity was watching Squirrel by Fluttershy and she had a little disgusted face from the mess on Squirrel's face that he hadn't cleaned up yet. Pinkie Pie was thinking about the theme for the party she was planning for Squirrel, which made her sit silently, which only lasted for two seconds because she got out of the throne she was sitting on and excitedly bounced around, being the energetic Pony that couldn't contain her energy. Rainbow Dash was next to Scootaloo, talking to each other like siblings. Starlight was observing Squirrel with curiosity, not knowing what to do in this situation because she never experienced a dead walking animal before. Twilight Sparkle and Applejack were next to each other, by the opposite end of the table of Squirrel.

Starlight noticed that Twilight and Applejack were talking with each other and decided to walk in the conversation. She noticed that Twilight had her eyes closed tightly and sat on her hauches to put one of her front hooves on forehead.

"So let me get this straight." Twilight said with a tone of a lack of understandment. "Squirrel isn't really a Zombie Squirrel, but he's a Human that was turned into a Squirrel, a Zombie Squirrel?" 

"Yeah, that's right." Applejack confirmed. 

"But that makes no sense."

"I know, I feel the same way." Starlight said as she walked next to Twilight and Applejack, catching their attention.

"Ah know it's confusin' for the both of you, but the rodent is tellin' the truth." Applejack said.

Twilight looked at Squirrel with a curious look and back at Applejack. "*Sigh* You're right Applejack, if you believe that Squirrel is not lying, then I believe you."

"Thanks sugarcube."

"No problem, it's just that nothing like this has happened in Equestria history, ever and it just seems suspicious for something like this to happen now."

"Ah get what ya mean, Twahlight, but trust me when ah say that the rodent is honest."

"Okay Applejack, I will."

"Me too." Starlight added.

Starlight and Twilight smiled at Applejack, who smiled back at them. They turned their head toward Squirrel who was chowing down on his last PB&J sandwich with a floating glass of chocolate milk by him. While Squirrel may of seemed untrustworthy at first, they believed that he was a very likeable Squirrel and wouldn't hurt any Pony at all. 

Starlight's eyes widened in realization and turned her head toward Twilight. "Wait, so how did you manage to calm down the town today from seeing Squirrel?"

"Oh wellll..." Twilight had a sheepish look and looked behind her and shifted closer to Starlight's right ear. "Don't tell Rainbow this, but I may of said to Ponyville that it was a part of a prank she did." She whispered in her ear.

Starlight had a smug smile from hearing the tactic that Twilight used to calm down the town. "Considered my lips sealed." This made Twilight form a slight smug smile on a face. 

Applejack didn't hear Twilight's answer, but she also had a smug expression that the Princess of Friendship lied in a tricking manner.







In the entrance of the space ship, Delirious started to walk toward the end of the ship. He passed the big red cabinet, some buttons by the entrance of the door, and a panel on the right when he reached the end of the inside of the ship. He laid his astonished eyes on the screens in front of him.

"This has to be a dream." He muttered to himself as he spotted a two buttons beside the black screen in front of him. He pushed the button that was on top of the second button and looked at the screen. Nothing happened. Delirious was thrown of by this and tried the second button that was below the first button and looked the screen, only to see no action happening in the screen.

"What the hell!?" Delirious said in confusion. "Why is this not working!" He pushed the buttons again, just to get the same results. The screen that had the buttons beside it, was not reacting or the other screen that was next to it that Delirious barely noticed by now.

"None of this shit is even working!" Delirious said angrily, but with the tone in his voice, it sounded like he was sarcastically being frustrated.

He then looked at a panel that was beside the second screen and he had a curious look. He got in front of the panel and hovered his fingers slightly above the keyboard, hoping that he can enter some words into the panel's screen. He pressed the 'D' key and nothing popped up on the screen. He pressed the same key again, believing that the keyboard had some registering issues, however nothing was displayed on the screen.

"Really!?" Delirious then pressed down on some other keys and moved his fingers all over the key board. Yet, no letter went through on the screen. "Man, this fucking Temu scamming panel sucks! I knew they were a god damn scam!"

"Wait a god damn minute!" Delirious said to himself in realization. He backed away from the panel and turned his head back the screen with the buttons beside, but instead of looking at the screen, he was looking on what was in front of the screen.

What was in front of the screen was a lever that had a red ball end. Delirious instantly had shocked eyes through his hockey mask. His hands were dangling, his feet were still, and his body felt chained as he watched the level for a few seconds. He couldn't believe it. This lever could do what he thinks it can do. Delirious finally released a reaction of gasping and put his left hand on the bottom of his mask where his lips would be. Maybe it wouldn't work, maybe it would. There was only one thing to do to see if it would happen.

Delirious lifted his right hand and slowly brought it to the level, to grab the red ball part of the level. He was hovering over it and was mere inches away from the lever. Suddenly, he stopped and looked at the screen as something came to his mind that made him lost in his thoughts. 

'Wait, If I pull this lever, then I'll... I'll-' Delirious couldn't bear thinking about the most monstrous thing that could happen to him if he pulled this lever. The most chaotic thing to ever happen to him, would happen if he pulled the lever. "-never be able to upload that one stream on to my channel! Fuck! Curse my content intentions!" He said the last part to himself, out loud.

Delirious snapped out of his thoughts and then looked at the lever again. "Well I'm sure my viewers can wait, but then again, something bad could happen if I pull this." He paused in thought and shrugged. "I'll be fine, curiosity hasn't fucked my ass. Only the cat... and Shane Dawson."

Delirious then brought his right hand to the red ball end of the lever and gripped his hand on it. All he had to do was pull the lever toward him. He took a deep breath and was going to pull the lever on 3... 2... 1-"

"Who seems to be out there! This forest is full of dangers, beware!" Delirious stopped trying to pull the lever and turned his head toward the entrance of the ship, since that's where he heard a faint female voice cry out.

"What the hell?" He said to himself. Did someone find him? Was he not the only one in this forest? He didn't care about the questions, he cared about the answers because he rushed out of the entrance and hopped over the yellow railing, landing on the dark grass.

"Yeah! I'm out here! Can you hear me!?" Delirious yelled as he put both of his hands around a bottom part of a mask, where his lips would be, but not covering it.

"You're far, but I hear where you are! Stay and don't wander, so things don't get bizarre!" He heard the voice call out and it was closer. He had a perplexed look in his eyes. Did the woman who yelled out to him, meant to rhyme?

His thoughts were shook off his mind when he heard footsteps coming from his left, which oddly enough sounded like a Horse was coming at him, but ignored it. He then heard the "footsteps" get replaced by the sound of bushes rustling. He turned his head toward bush on his left and it seemed like it was the source if the rustling.

Delirious had a feeling of relief that he was finally found and can't wait to see a face after exhaustingly walking through the forest. The woman came out the bush.

"Finally, someone found me. You have no ide-" Delirious stopped when he realized that a woman didn't come out of the bushes, it was a Zebra.

The Zebra looked like it came out of a cartoon which left Delirious confused. The Zebra also had some gold rings around it's neck, had one on each ear, and some on its left Zebra arm. The Zebra had an odd and almost Human look on its face that looked confused.

"What the... a Zebra!?" Delirious confusingly shouted, not knowing why a Zebra was out here. The Zebra had a shocked face, but Delirious was too busy on being confused, he didn't pay attention to its look. "Uhh... woman! Are you there!? Did you bring a Zebra to this forest!?" He looked past the Zebra and shouted out at the direction of the sound of the woman's shouts. "Uhh... lady!? Are you out there!?"

"I-I'm the one that you spoken to. A visitor like you, is something new."

Delirious stopped looking at the direction he previously heard the voice and looked at the Zebra. He heard the same voice come from the Zebra when it moved its lips to talk. This shocked Delirious and for a second, he believed that he heard the voice come from the Zebra

"Wait, d-did you just... talk?" Delirious said in astonishment. 

'No, no. Snap out of it, you're imagining things. There's no possible way that a Zebra can ta-'

"I'm confused on why you think I can't talk. Yet, I'm perplexed that on two legs, you can walk." The Zebra said 

"Holy hell, you just talked!?" Delirious yelled, astonished by the talking Zebra. "How are you talking, you Zebra!?"

"I could ask the same, you're the most unusual guest I'll ever see. But tell me, what were you doing in the forest of the Everfree?" 

"*Gasp* You're a Dr. Seuss speaking Zebra!" Delirious said, completely ignoring the question the Zebra asked. "I'm really losing my mind!"

"I may not know or have a clue on who's Dr. Seuss. However, I can assure you, you don't have any screws loose." The Zebra replied.

"But how can it be possible!? Zebras don't talk at all or look like they came out of a cartoon!"

"Equestria has always had many species that communicate and share. So why do you think we can't do any of the skills there?"

"Equestria? What the hell is that?" Delirious asked with confusion.

The Zebra's eyes became full of a little shock. "Wait, you mean you don't know the grass you walk on? It's the very grass you are walking beyond."

"Ok, but last time I checked, Humans haven't discovered or heard anything about Zebras talking."

"My people not communicating? I'm full of doubts, but I wonder, what are these Humans you're talking about?" The Zebra said with a tone of curiosity.

"Oh, well these Humans are like me, you know. They look like Monkeys but they are taller and walk on two legs, they talk normally, but not like animals, and other stuff like that.

"Fascinating. Well I'm glad I met and heard about your kind. And you seem fine, though earlier you thought you were losing your mind." The Zebra said with a amused tone, look and a raised eyebrow. 

"Yeah, well *Ahem* seeing crazy things you haven't seen before, will do that to you." Delirious nervously said, a little embarrassed about him almost losing his screws. "But hey, I'm taking it pretty well for seeing and hearing talking Zebra that I have never heard of before."

"For your kind, I indeed feel the same. Though, I must know, what is your name?"

"Well my name is H2ODelirious or you can call me Jonathan or Jon, but I prefer Delirious." Delirious pointed a thumb to himself in confidence.

The Zebra giggled a little. "Delirious? With your wild personality, I can see why the name is for ya. Nice to meet you, Delirious. My name is Zecora." Zecora introduced.

"Well it's nice to meet you, Zecora."

After they properly introduced, Zecora noticed the ship behind Delirious. "Delirious? What is behind you back? I never seen this kind of craft."

Delirious turned around to look at the spaceship. "Oh, you must be talking about this spaceship."

"A-a ship of space? Can it really go to that place?" Zecora asked with shock filled in her voice.

"Well yes, it does. It can go above the skies and can enter space. Enter space!" Delirious said with some excitement.

"Amazing." Zecora excitingly muttered to herself.

Delirious was about to go on about the spaceship, however he just realized something that he let go over his masked head. "Wait, I have a question."

Zecora looked curious on his sudden question he was about to ask. "A question you have in your mask? What do you have to ask?"

"Didn't you say that there's more of you earlier?"

"Indeed I did, Delirious. Why are you curious?"

Delirious had a shocked face, but he continued to talked "Well, while I'm used to a talking Zebra by now, I didn't know that there were more talking Zebras like you."

Zecora let out of a small giggle as she informed him. "Well, my people aren't around, but there's a nearby town."

"A town? A town of what?" Delirious asked with curiosity.

"A town of Ponies and other creatures alike with friendships everywhere and no strife."

"Ponies? Like Ponies that talk like you?"

Zecora nodded. "Indeed."

Delirious didn't know how to process that information. It was common for talking aninals to exist and he didn't know that some live in the Earth. Actually Equestria. Wait Equestria!? Delirious just let another piece of information slip over his head.

"Wait, wait, let's rewind." Delirious did a backwards motion with his hands. Zecora was left with a confused expression, but nodded her head. "Did you say Equestria is the grass I'm walking on?" Zecora nodded, so he continued. "What do you mean by that? Is Equestria a village or something like that?"

"I'm confused on what you think the world inhabits, but for you see, Equestria is a planet." Zecora answered with a tone of confusion.

'A PLANET!!!?' Delirious mentally yelled in his head, full of confusion.

"DID YOU JUST SAY A PLANET!!!?" Delirious shouted in confusion, hoping what he had heard was wrong.

Zecora thrown off by his yelling, but answered his question. "Yes, I did. Did I not? Why do you have a sudden state of shock?"

Delirious couldn't believe what he heard. He was on a planet that wasn't Earth. What the fuck is going on? He didn't know why he was in Equestria. However, to make sure that he wasn't on a different planet or something, he asked one important question that he needed answered.

"Umm... do you know what Earth is?" He asked reluctantly.

"Earth? That's a name I haven't heard before. Unless it was part of history, it's not heard of anymore."

Delirious had a more shocked expression and couldn't believe it. He was on another planet with no Humans, just talking Zebras and Ponies. "S-so I'm i-in Equestria?"

"Indeed." Zecora nodded.

'How did I get here!? This can't be right! This has to be a dream! Right!?' Delirious was freaking out and questioning if this was even real life. First, he transformed into his avatar. Second, he finds a spaceship from Lethal Company. Finally, he encounters a talking Zebra. This couldn't be real.

Zecora noticed that his face (well his eyes, since his face is covered) looked like it saw a ghost, so she tried to calm him down. "Relax, my Delirious friend. Breathe in and breathe out. After you're done, tell me what you worry about?" 

Delirious did what he was told and calmed down a little. 

"Now tell me what gets you wary? Tell me all of the worries that you carry?" Zecora asked in concern of Delirious' health.

"Ok... so I-I think I'm stuck in a different world or dimension, however you call it." Delirious answered hesitantly.

Zecora's eyes widened. "Another dimension you mention?"

"Yes because you're saying that this planet is Equestria, but the planet that has my people is Earth."

More shock consumed Zecora as she had her jaw dropped. She couldn't believe that she met a civilized ape that was from another world called Earth. She didn't know what to think or do about this for a bit. 

"And I don't know how I got here or what kind of tragic magic brought me to this ugly forest... umm, no offense." Delirious assured, thinking dissing the forest offended Zecora's feelings.

"None taken. This forest has some surprises to fear. But also, I heard that magic brought you here." Zecora said.

"Yes or something like that. I was hit by a purple lighting strike when I was-" Delirious paused, thinking that Equestria doesn't have video games, so he had to word it differently. "-relaxing with my friends. Then after I was hit by fucking lighting, I woke up in this forest, in the middle of no where. 

Zecora put a hoof on her chin to ponder about the magic that hit Delirious. "A purple lighting strike? That is certainly a mystery. Maybe Twilight will know how to get him out of his dimensional misery." She muttered to herself.

Delirious noticed that Zecora was talking to herself and looked uneasy. "Uhh, is everything okay?"

"Yes I am because I came to the conclusion. We should meet the Twilight to clear up the confusion." Delirious rose an eyebrow and was about to question on who Twilight is, but Zecora answered his question that he was about to ask. "Twilight is the Princess of Friendship and is well knowledgeable in magic, so I'm sure she can inform you about the events that were tragic. Follow me until, we meet her in Ponyville."

"Okay." Delirious agreed, but before they can walk an inch, Delirious had a worrying question. "Wait, if I'm going to Ponyville, wouldn't they freak out because... you know-" He pointed his right hand index finger on his right masked up cheek. "-they haven't seen this before?"

"There's no need to fret. They won't see you as a threat." Zecora reassured him.

"Ok, but how do you know that they won't be scared when they see me?" He asked.

"Because I was treated the same way when I first arrived, but eventually they became great friends when given time."

"Ok, if you say so."

"Trust me when I they won't be scared when you're around. But let us stroll, so we can make it to the town." She started walking the way she entered and Delirious followed her. 

However, before he could enter the bush Zecora made her way in, Delirious turned around to look the spaceship. 'Damn, should I follow her or should I try that lever.' He stood still and turned his head to the bush and spaceship now and then. He kept arguing in his head to see if he should follow the rhyming Zebra or travel to space with the ship.

After a few seconds of mentally arguing and looking back and forth at the ship and bush, he came to the conclusion. 'Screw it, I'll check on the ship later. Time to see some talking Ponies.'

"Delirious!? Is something appalling!? Why are you behind and stalling!?" He heard Zecora's faint voice yell out as she noticed Delirious wasn't following her.

"Sorry! I'm coming!" Delirious shouted as he ran through the bush and followed Zecora. His footsteps then turned into faint noises, which eventually, left silence in the area. No pony, no Human, no Dragon, and no Draconequus were in the area at all. 

But maybe something was in the area. Like a mysterious figure hiding in the bushes. He was watching the scene and he had one thing to say: "YIPE!!!"
> Chapter 7: Welcome to Ponyville, Delirious
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Ahh, now that was refreshing." Squirrel said in a lazy tone, after drinking down his remaining chocolate milk.

A snap was heard and a floating napkin appeared in front of Squirrel, which made his eye widened slightly in surprise. After a second passed, he then shrugged of the surprised look and accepted the napkin. He rubbed the napkin around his mouth to clean up the sticky peanut butter and jelly mess.

When Squirrel was done cleaning his face, his plate that was on his lap, disappeared. So did his glass and his napkin. He had a pleased smile and wish he had more time for his question free break, but sadly for him, it had to come to an end.

"Squirrel." He turned his head to whoever called his name and he saw that it was Sunlight.

"Um, yes?" Squirrel questioned, not knowing what she wanted to know.

"So I heard that you were a... Human?" 

"Yes, I was before I was transformed into this." Squirrel pointed at himself with his thumb.

"Okay and I heard that a beam struck you out of no where, therefore bring you to Equestria?"

"Yep. That sounds about right." Squirrel confirmed. 

"So... how did the beam look like?"  

"Uhh, why are you asking?" Squirrel rose an eyebrow in confusion.

"Because I want to know all the details on how you got here. Plus we need to make sure you're completely trustworthy." Sunlight stated.

"*Sigh* Fine. I'll do it. *Ahem* So the beam that looked like lightning came out of a...-" Squirrel paused and thought for a second. "-do you know what a computer is?"

Sunlight's eyes widened slightly at the familiar name. "Yes, I know what a computer is."

"Wait, really?" Squirrel asked, a little astonished that the lavender Pony even knew what a device even is.

"Yeah."

"How?"

"Well... to put it in simple terms, I went through a portal in my mirror that led to the Human world. I transformed into a Human and I learned so much about them and their technology and I was able to get back to Equestria."

"Wait, did you say the Human world?" Squirrel asked with a little bit of an enlightened tone.

"Yes I did."

"Does that mean you could send me back to my world?"

"Well, I could, but I'm not sure if it's your world."

Squirrel looked confused. "What do you mean? You said it was the Human world and I was a Human, so yeah, I'm sure it's my place."

"True, my Squirrely friend." Discord jumped in and appeared beside the throne that Squirrel was sitting on. "However, there are many variations of Human worlds and dimensions in the whole multiverse." Squirrel looked perplexed by his statement, but before he could reply to his statement, Discord continued to speak. "Plus, if you did come from that world, why didn't come out of that mirror, considering it's the only portal to Equestria?" Squirrel still looked confused and was trying to process a response.

Sunlight's eyes widened in realization. "Wait a minute Discord, we never told you about Canterlot High?"

"Oh, well just because you went on your little Canterlot adventure and discovered Humans for the first time, doesn't mean I haven't been there before. Oh, the chaos I caused there. Good times." 

Sunlight formed a slight glare upon hearing the fact that Discord caused chaos and was about to scold him, however he stopped her before she could even start. "Relax, I cleaned up my mess... most of it." He muttered the last part to himself, which Sunlight didn't hear.

Sunlight's glare softened as she turned back to Squirrel. However, she was still suspicious of Discord's antics, but decided to brush it off to focus on to other important matters.
"Anyways, Discord is right. There are many dimensions and worlds for that dimension to be yours."

Squirrel pondered for a bit. "I suppose you're right. But how am I supposed to get home?"

Sunlight's face dropped at the question, but she eventually thought of the words to say. "Well... we are going to figure out that part." She then realized that she didn't get the full story on how Squirrel got to Equestria. "But for right now, can you finish your story on how you got here?"

Going bored of where the conversation was going, Squirrel grew bored with a uninterested look. Still, he listened to her suggestion. "Fine, I suppose. *Sigh* So as I was saying, the lightning came out of the computer screen and struck me with out of no where and I just find myself woken up in a forest."

Sunlight's eyes widened in realization in what forest Squirrel may be talking about. "Wait, forest? Are you talking about the Everfree Forest?"

"I don't know what the Everfree Forest is." Squirrel said with a clueless tone.

Sweetie Belle saw a clueless expression show on his face and decided to walk up and answer to him. "Oh, well you remember that forest that you were in? The one where you were looking shocked and aimlessly trying to say something?" 

"Uhh... yeah?" 

"That was the Everfree Forest."

"Oooh." Squirrel had an expression of understandment, but it was replaced with a surprised face when he realized something. "Wait, how did you know I was doing those things when I arrived at the forest?"

Scootaloo's and Apple Bloom's eyes widened when that question was asked. They weren't supposed to be at the forest, since it was dangerous and would get in trouble. Not from the Timberwolves or Manticores in the forest, but from their sister's wrath if they found out about that.

Sweetie Belle sweated and stammered a little bit with a thin sheepish smile. "W-well... umm..." Seeing that she couldn't come up with an excuse, she let out a small sigh, wiping away the sheepish look and stopped stammering. "*Sigh* Ok... we-"

Scootaloo quickly zoomed to Sweetie Belle and put a hoof on mouth. "We assumed that's how Squirrel reacted." She said quickly with a sheepish smile.

"Yeah, ah would be shocked and surprised if ah became a Zombie Squirrel." Apple Bloom added, who had a similar expression to Scootaloo.

Sunlight narrowed her eyes in little suspicion, but Squirrel seemed to bought the poor lie. "Okay then." Squirrel said before clearing his throat. "*Ahem* Back to the story, I th- well actually, you know what happened after I woke up in the forest."

Sunlight turned her attention to Squirrel as he was began his rundown of his story. She had an eyebrow raised with a confused look. "So you're saying that a lighting struck you, out of nowhere, meaning you were transported to Equestria?"

"Yup-a-moon-doe, Sunlight." 

"It's Twilight." Sunlight or rather Twilight, corrected in a serious tone.

"Whatever."

Before Twilight can say anything else, a possibility flashed in Twilight's head. The lighting that Squirrel was talking about, reminded her of the experiment that she did today. She mentally became shocked by the possibility that maybe it was her fault that Squirrel ended up in Equestria. She then quickly decided and tried to reassure herself.

'No, no. There's no logical way that the same beam I launched was the same energy that Squirrel was talking about. It may have taken the form of a lightning structure, but it was just a simple energy beam from Discord. Then again, Discord's chaos magic defies logic, so maybe it could've bee-'

"Twilight!"

A small shout snapped Twilight out of thoughtful thinking. "Huh? What?"

"I said if you were okay." Twilight looked at Squirrel who looked confused. "I yelled your name and you didn't respond." Squirrel said with a little bit of confusion in his tone. "Is everything okay?"

"Yep, everything is fine and this isn't totally my fault." Twilight said quickly with a sheepish expression and tone.

"Umm... okkk." Squirrel was still confused and didn't hear the second part of sheepish speech.

Twilight didn't want to believe that her experiment was the reason why Squirrel was in Equestria, however the beams that he described that hit him were similar to the beam she tried to absorb. She didn't know how to confirm the idea that the energies were the same, until she finally had a way for it to be confirmed.

"So, if you don't mind me asking, what was the color of the be- lightning!? Lightning. Uhh... what color was the lightning?" She had a huge sheepish smile and a little bit of sweat, hoping that Squirrel didn't hear the word she almost said.

While Squirrel did have a confused look, he also had a little bit of an uncomfortable look as well. Even though he had her weirdness press him, he answered her question. "Uhm... well, it was purple. I really don't see why you need that information, but yeah, it was purple."

Twilight's worries spiked and she was mentally panicking, all while she was still wearing a sheepish look. "Uh o-ok. Thanks for informing. Ha ha." She backed away with a few small sheepish laughs.

Squirrel looked confused during the whole interaction and was kind of glad it was over. "N-no problem." He reluctantly said.

"Uhh, sugarcube? Are you okay?" Applejack asked as she approached Twilight, a little worried on why Twilight is acting strange.

"It's... nothing." Twilight tried to assure in a calming tone, but it clearly came out as a worrying tone.

Applejack formed a worried look, but before she could comment on her behavior, Twilight continued to talk.

"Umm... hey girls!" This caught the other Mane 6's attention, including Spike's attention.

"Yes, Twilight darling!?" Rarity called out with a confused expression.

"I think we should... step outside and... talk about... something." Twilight then backed up to the entrance of throne room with a sheepish expression still on her face.

The other Ponies of the Mane 6 looked at Twilight with confusion, but slowly trotted toward the entrance.

After Twilight used her magic aura to open the door, she entered the door and so did the other Ponies of the Mane 6. Once they were all in the hallway, she closed the door, leaving only the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Starlight, and Spike with confused expressions. Discord however, had a knowing look as well as a thin grin.

Spike turned and looked at Discord. "Discord, do you know what that was all about?" Spike asked.

"I haven't got a clue." Discord lied in a teasing tone.

Oh Celestia, what chaos was he was about to watch unfold?







They continued to walk down the path that was clearly leading to Ponyville. Zecora and Delirious was walking beside each other, seeing a colorful town a little bit distant away from them. They were approaching the town to get the Catle of Friendship, so they can talk to Twilight about this whole situation.

"Sooo... we're almost at the town." Delirious pointed out.

"Indeed we almost are. Let's keep going far." Zecora said. She casted a look to her side to see Delirious, while she was still facing the distant town. "Are you nervous to be renowned, while we travel through town?"

Delirious turned his head to face Zecora. "Well... just a little bit, but I'm also kind of curious about these Ponies."

"Don't worry, they will warm up to you, even if your kind to them, is something new." 

"Yeah, you're right." Delirious and Zecora then continued walked as footsteps and hoofsteps were the only noise filling the air. 

However after a few seconds of the silence, Delirious broke it when he had a question he wanted to ask Zecora. "By the way, I been meaning to ask, why do you always rhyme everytime?"

Zecora formed a small smile at the question. "What a delirious mention and curious question, but I'll answer you my non-spurious intention."

As Zecora answered Delirious' question, they were closer to the town and were still a few feet away. Ponyville would be in for a surprise.







A minty green and a creamy white Pony were laying on the bench on her stomach. Well actually, the creamy white Pony was the only one laying on her stomach because the green minty Pony was sitting on the bench, but in a way that the creamy white Pony always found strange when she always did that. These Ponies were the background couple: Lyra and Bon Bon.

Lyra and Bon Bon were calming down and were trying to get their minds away from what they saw. They saw a Squirrel like figure, but it couldn't be a simple Squirrel because it had its brain exposed and was walking fine. This made them form a shade of green on their face and they felt their food come up their throat. However, they quickly got rid of the thought, so they shook off the greeness off their face and they swallowed down their processed food. Although Princess Twilight Sparkle reassured them and Ponyville that it was just a prank set up by Rainbow Dash, they still couldn't stop thinking about the disgusting sight they seen.

"Bon Bon." Lyra said in a tone that almost sounded like she lost her voice.

"Yes Lyra?" Bon Bon asked in the exact tone as Lyra.

"Don't you think that... you know, that maybe that Squirrel was actually a real... Zombie Squirrel and not a Squirrel in makeup?" Lyra questioned.

Bon Bon turned her head and faced toward Lyra upon hearing the idea that the Squirrel was a real Zombie. "What? No, no. Lyra that sounds... ridiculous." She said the last part reluctantly. She was dealing with her own doubts and beliefs, trying to decide on which side to believe.

"I don't know, Bon Bon. It seemed too real to be a prank."

"Lyra, I'm sure Princess Twilight was right and wouldn't lie."

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Lyra's stress vanished and she relaxed her head from the Squirrely thoughts she had.

"Ok, how about we stop thinking about the Squirrel and focus on what a beautiful day it is or something like that." Bon Bon suggested, hoping to get the thoughts of the Squirrel our of her head too.

"Yeah, I suppose you're right."

While Lyra and Bon Bon were trying to relax and forget about the Squirrel, many other Ponies were trying to do the same. 

Octavia Melody and Vinyl Scratch (or rather DJ Pon-3, if you're going by her party nickname) were walking by the bench Lyra and Bon Bon were on. They were also trying to get rid of the rodent thoughts as well.

"That Rainbow Dash!" Octavia growled through her gritted teeth. She seemed angry with her furrowed eyebrows and narrowed eyes. "Why must she play a prank? I ran my hooves away from that horrifying looking Squirrel, only for it to be a trick! How maddening!" She turned her head towards Vinyl. "Wouldn't you agree?"

Vinyl nodded her head and she also appeared to have furrowed eyebrows as well, but it was softer the Octavia's angry expression.

Octavia groaned in annoyance. "Well now there goes my precious time that I could've used for practicing wonderful music." Vinyl nodded and silently agreed with her as they walked by Mayor Mare who looked tired. 

Mayor Mare had heavy eyelids and a little bit of redness in her eyes. She hadn't had her coffee yet at her home, but she couldn't make it. So she had to head to the Town Hall to make her coffee there and clear out the work she had to do. 

However, like the other Ponies in Ponyville, she also got scared by the Zombie Squirrel and ran away from it. Eventually, the situation got cleared up and Ponyville was informed that this was another Rainbow Dash prank, even though the whole town got back at her for pranking everypony. 

Ironically, the prank Ponyville used to get back at Rainbow was a Zombie prank. And with the Zombie Squirrel turning out to be a trick, Mayor Mare guessed Rainbow must've done this because she wanted to get back at Ponyville for using her own idea for a prank against her. Although Mayor Mare was a little frustrated at Rainbow for not learning her lesson, she couldn't display that frustration, due to her drowsiness.

"I don't get enough credit to handle this town." Mayor Mare groaned to herself as she was walking to the Town Hall with her tired head lowered to the grass floor. However, her remaining tired strength kept her head from almost touching the grass. And as much as she wanted it to be a normal day, considering she couldn't handle another situation happening, that unfortunately wouldn't happen.







There were two figures approaching the town and it was Zecora and Delirious. They were barely going to make it to the town, however they were more focused on the topic they were still talking about.

"And as you see everytime, that is why I rhyme." Zecora stated.

"Uh huh, I see." Delirious said, taking in the information. He looked away from Zecora and noticed the different surroundings around him. He was a little amazed on how the town looked. 

There were some colorful buildings around, but it wasn't a splattered mess. Still though, it looked like a Unicorn shit over this town. He was a little amazed at the town and looked around more with sparkling eyes. "Wow, this town looks amazing."

Zecora giggled a little bit at his reaction. "Amazed?"

"Hell yeah, this looks cool!" Delirious exclaimed excitingly.

"Well I'm glad that this town is something you like. Although, you're attracting attention from Pony eyes."

Delirious was confused on what the hell she was talking about and then he noticed a few Ponies in the corner of his eye. He shifted his full attention to the Ponies and they looked shocked with their jaws dropped. His dumb ass forgot that there were Ponies in Ponyville, even though Pony was in the name.

"Oh shit, I forgot." Delirious said to himself as he became a little embarrassed at the little scene he made. He looked away from the Ponies and turned his attention back to Zecora. 

"Like I said, you will catch their attention for many days, but they won't see you as a threat at anyway." Zecora said in her usual rhyming.

"I hope." Delirious said as he and Zecora were still walking. 







Ahead of their distance was Octavia and Vinyl who were walking towards them. They still seemed to talk about the prank Rainbow pulled. Well, mostly Octavia.

"Just who does she think she is? Pranking the musical genius of the cello all for a couple of brief laughs. How rude. For being the so called Element of Loyalty, she seems to like tricks that make Ponies feel petrified" Octavia ranted. 

Vinyl was ignoring her ranting at this point and turned her attention to ahead of their path they were walking. She then noticed something ahead of the distance. She saw a Pony shaped figure, but there was another figure that confused her and gained her curiosity. She squinted her eyes through her glasses to see what was the figure that was slowly approaching her. After a few seconds of squinting, she saw the figure more clearly and became shocked on what she is seeing. She suddenly stopped walking and had her eyebrows raised with her jaw dropped.

Octavia continued to walk a few feet from the shocked DJ, but after she stopped running her mouth about Rainbow Dash, she noticed Vinyl wasn't walking beside her. She looked behind her and saw her be still as a statue, like that one Draconequus they have in Ponyville. If she remembered correctly, Discord was the Draconequus' name.

Octavia walked to Vinyl, confused on why she stopped all of a sudden. "Why did you stop walking?" She asked.

Vinyl swiftly lifted her front right hoof and pointed to the direction in front of her. Octavia followed where Vinyl's hoof pointed at and laid her eyes on whatever she was pointing at. Her eyes of confusion, instantly became pinpointed dotted eyes and her jaw felt like there was an anvil weighing it down because it dropped in an instant. What she saw was beyond a bewildering sight.

She saw Zecora? Was it? She couldn't remember the Zebra's name, but she wasn't surprised about her arriving in Ponyville, she was surprised on what was walking besides her.

What was walking beside her was a bipedal figure, however it wasn't in a shape of a Diamond Dog, Dragon, or any creature Octavia has ever seen. It was a tall figure that easily towered over the Zebra's height and it had hair only on the top of its head. Though she couldn't quite tell if it was only its head that had hair, since it seemed to wear some interesting clothing all over its body. It even had a hockey mask as well as some talons peeking out its sleeves, however they didn't look sharp, in fact it looked like some kind of thick sticks, like a Monkey's palm. The figure actually did resemble an Ape, although last time she checked, Monkeys still had their tails, hair all over their skin, and they didn't wear clothes their size. Regardless, this Monkey was missing hair, a tail, and wore clothes, making this a Delirious sight for her.

Octavia and Vinyl were staring at the Ape in shock, but also in a little bit of disbelief. The Monkey seemed to be deep in a conversation with Zecora, it didn't notice Octavia and Vinyl staring at him when they close to them. Their eyes and bodies were following the Monkey and even when it eventually passed her, she turned her body and eyes to still face it. 

"So what happened when you arrived here?" Octavia heard the Monkey ask in a male sounding voice, which made her form a more shocked expression.

They were still watching the male Ape walk farther away from them as he and Zecora were talking to each other. After the Ape visitor was at a far distance, Octavia started to question the chaos in this town, while Vinyl was still shocked. Still though, Octavia and Vinyl couldn't believe the visitor that walked by.

"W-who in... w-what in... w-who in C-Celestia was that?" Octavia questioned with a few stutters.

Vinyl didn't even move her head to respond to Octavia's question, since she was still trying to process everything that they just saw right now.







Delirious and Zecora were away from the musical duo, completely unaware of the shock and questions they caused by walking past the two Mares. As a matter of fact, they weren't aware of a Mare they were going to walk past right now. It was Mayor Mare.

Mayor Mare still looked tired and was facing the floor, but she was barely hovering it over the grass. She then heard somepony talking behind her.

"-nd they were frightened by appearance. However, there was one Filly that wanted to stop these rumors by her significant interference." She heard a familiar rhyming voice called and instantly recognized the voice to belong to Zecora. She didn't know why Zecora was in Ponyville or who she was talking to. 
Nevertheless, she was too tired to care or turn her head around to see the rhyming Zebra. However, she would see Zecora and who she was talking to because they were walking faster than Mayor Mare's tired pace. 

"*Gasp* So what happened next?" She heard a male voice gasp with a little bit of delirium in his tone. This made her open her eyes slightly and lift her head up. She had never heard a Stallion in this town with that voice before, so this made her curiosity slowly take over her drowsiness.

Their hoofsteps were getting closer to her and they were going to pass by her. Mayor Mare then saw Zecora and then she looked at the other Pony, however when she did, she was instantly shocked and stopped walking.

When she laid her eyes on the other Pony, she realized it wasn't a Pony, in fact it wasn't a Dragon, Diamond Dog, or any other species she had heard of. It was tall and looked like an Ape, but this Ape had clothing and talked like any normal Pony. With her eyes being the size as tiny dots and her jaw dropped, she couldn't say anything at all, due to the shock. Her tiredness vanished completely, it felt like she mentally got a wake-up slap to her face. As Mayor Mare continued to watch the civilized Ape, Zecora answered his question.

"The Filly approached and told me about the Poison Joke her friends carry, so I told her to get ingredients. When she left, her friends arrived with great caution and were wary, meaning I was accused in immediate. After looking in the forest, the young Filly came back to my hut and brought back the ingredients for the curing stew. However, she saw what was happening and stopped the room of chaos that was beginning to brew. Eventually, we explained the situation to the Ponies and-" With Zecora walking away farther away, Mayor Mare couldn't quite hear because Zecora and the Ape were far away for her to hear the continuation of the conversation.

When Zecora and the Ape were far away from Mayor Mare, she stood silent for a few seconds and said nothing for a while. Eventually, she finally broke the silence. "*Sigh* There's never a normal day in this town."







"-were able to wash the Poison Joke out." Zecora finished.

"Geez, rough story." Delirious said.

Zecora let out a chuckle. "It was a misunderstanding and I was accused. However, their antics some what left me amused."

They were continuing to walk to the Castle of Friendship, while still deep in their conversation. So far, they seemed to cause shock Ponies who saw them, well they were all surprised about Delirious, considering that they never saw a guest like him before. However, they would soon pass a bench that Lyra and Bon Bon were sitting on.

"It is a beautiful day today." Bon Bon pointed out, taking a deep breath. She was still trying to wipe her thoughts away from the prank and focus on other things. She took a deep breath.

"Yeah, it's a relaxing day." Lyra agreed, also taking a deep breath. "Ahhhhh. I feel so relaxed." Her eyes were closed with relaxation, while her mind was clearing up.

For a little bit of time, they just relaxed and enjoyed the fresh green smell of grass. Eventually, they opened their eyes when their minds cleared up from the chaos they witnessed this morning.

"See, isn't this relaxing, Lyra?" Bon Bon asked in a calming tone and expression with her eyelids being semi open.

"Yeah, Lyra. This is very calming." Lyra agreed, while having the same expression and tone Bon Bon had.

Bon Bon heard a familiar voice talking and in the corner of her eye, she caught the source of it. She turned her to the left, but she she still rambled on about the calmness that was in this moment.

"Uh huh. And there's no chaos or pranks that could ruin this perfect mome-" Bon Bon instantly stopped and had her eyes shrink and have a face of pure shock. 

Lyra opened her relaxing eyes when she didn't hear Bon Bon finish her sentence. "Uhhh... Bon Bon, why did you stop?" She asked with confusion in her tone as she turned her head to her direction. 

Immediately, Lyra noticed the thousand yard stare that Bon Bon had in her face. Lyra had a little confused expression.  "Bon Bon, what's wrong?" Lyra then turned her head to the left to see what she was staring at. She instantly also had a shocked expression as well.

What they saw was Zecora walking and talking to somepony, but it wasn't a Pony, it was some kind of Ape with some clothes and even a hockey mask.

Zecora seemed to be talking to the Ape and this made Lyra a bit curious, but she still felt shocked.

Lyra was observing the Ape, very closely. She looked at its head, its torso, and its... palms that were peeking out of its sleeve. Its palms seemed to have claws that were thick, it didn't even look like they were sharp claws, it was like the Ape had... hands. WAIT HANDS!?

Lyra's eyes widened in realization when she figured out who the Ape was. It was... a Human. 

"Who is that?" Bon Bon asked, completely flabbergasted on what she was seeing.

Lyra stayed silent as she came to a realization: there was a real Human here in Equestria and it was in front of her eyes. It left her sight and she just paused in the same spot for many minutes.

"Lyra!? LYRA!?" Bon Bon said in confusion as she saw Lyra was in a daze. "Are you oka-"

"Human."

"What?"

"Human."

"Lyra, what are you talki-" Bon Bon didn't get to finish when Lyra suddenly jolted from the bench and left Bon Bon.

While Bon Bon was surprised by the speed Lyra displayed, she snapped out of her flabbergasted daze and turned her head to the left to see Lyra gallop toward the direction of where the Ape went.

"Lyra, wait!" She called out as she got out of the bench and galloped toward her direction.

They would soon find out about the guest that was in Ponyville.







Delirious and Zecora stopped walking when saw the Castle's front door at the distance. 

"So that's it, huh?" Delirious asked Zecora.

"It is indeed. Let us proceed." Zecora answered as they were beginning to still follow the path that led to the front door of the Castle of Friendship.

WAAIITT!" 

A approaching yell shouted behind them. They turned around and spotted the minty Unicorn: Lyra, galloping toward them. They didn't know what to think of it, but she was approaching them and getting close.

Lyra then stopped in front of them and looked at Delirious with a happy smile and shining eyes full of excitement.

"Hi." Lyra squeaked happily.

"Uhh, hi? Umm... who the hell are you?" Delirious asked.

"Oh, sorry for being rude. I'm Lyra Heartstrings and I was wondering who you were?"

"Well LYRA, my name is Delirious."

"Delirious? That's a weird name, but I love it." Lyra smiled more, which made a sound that sounded like a Dog toy was being squeezed. This confused Delirious.

'Is a Dog playing with his toy because what the hell was that sound?' He thought with confusion, however he brushed it off as he noticed that Lyra was waiting for his response.

"Yeah, that's a weird name, but it's mine. Although, Heartstrings is a weird name."

"Well, it's normal around here with Ponies, since we don't have Humans here in Equestria. Which I still can't believe that a real Human is here in Equestria. It's amazing."

"And I didn't think I would end up in a Pony town in another dimension, yet here we are. In fact, I thought it was only in cartoons, like this place for example, but shit, I'm actually in another dimension and I'm not dreaming. At least I don't think I am."

"Well, dimension travel exists and I'm glad a Human like you was brought here with... haaannnddddssss..." Lyra looked like she was being hypnotized when she laid her eyes on Delirious' hands.

Delirious was thrown off by her dazed reaction and lifted his left hand to look at his own hand. "Is there something on my hands because I don't know what you're talking abo- Woah!" Delirious suddenly felt something grab his wrist and pull it down.

After Delirious sturdied his body from the sudden pull, he lifted his head to see that it was Lyra who pulled his arm. She seemed to be looking excitingly at his hand.

"Haaannndddddsssss..." Lyra said, while she was still in a trance.

"Delirious was questioning (again): 'WHAT THE FUCCKKK!!!?'

However, before he can say anything, Zecora decided to break up Delirious from Lyra's grip.

Delirious seems to be uncomfortable from your grip. Please release him so we can continue on our small trip." Zecora suggested, snapping Lyra out of her trance.

"Huh?" Lyra looked confused on what Zecora was talking about when she realized that she was holding on to Delirious' hand. "Oh, I'm sorry." Lyra released her grip on his wrist. 

"It's fine, just don't do that again. It's weird." Delirious said.

"We better continue and meet Twilight with you being the attention of everypony's eyesight." Zecora informed Delirious.

Before he can agree, Lyra gasped. "You're going to meet Princess Twilight?"

"Uhh, yeah. According to the Dr. Seuss Zebra, this 'Princess Twilight' can possibly send my ass home, but to me, it kind of sounds like a bit of Horse crap." Delirious explained as he let out a little snicker when he realized he unintentionally made a Horse joke.

"Wait, so you're going to leave?" Lyra started forming a sad pouting face. "Bu- but we just met."

Delirious started to feel weirdly concerned, but he brushed it off and reassured her in his usual tone. "Look Lyra, as much as I would love to explore the hell out of this town, but I have to do some important shit back at home. Like record some videos for my viewers and... some other important shit like that. But hey, I may not go to my home instantly. I might have some time to be in this place."

Lyra looked at Delirious with big cat eyes, which actually made Delirious' heart melt at the cuteness that the minty Pony was showing. "You promise?" 

"YES! I promise from my heart, I'm not lying. Now stop doing that face. It's hurting my heart! My heart!" Delirious said dramatically.

Lyra stopped showing her cat eyes and she all of a sudden, jumped on him and wrapped her front hooves around his body. "Oh thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

Delirious looked very happy that he was getting his body cuddled by a minty Pony. "No problem! Oh, you're so cut-" 

"LYRAAA!"

A yell interrupted the cute moment. Lyra stopped hugging Delirious as she jumped down and turned around to the source of the yell. It turned out, it belonged to Bon Bon who was running toward the group of three.

"Lyra! There you are!" Bon Bon stopped in front of the group, but she hadn't noticed Delirious. "Lyra, why did you take off like that?" She asked.

"I'm sorry Bon Bon, but I had to meet Delirious." Lyra responded.

Bon Bon looked confused. "Delirious? Who's Delirious?"

"Oh, he's the Human behind me."

Bon Bon had small dotted eyes from that answer, but she was able to slowly raise her head. "A Human?" She then saw the hockey masked Ape that was called "Delirious."

She was in total shock, while Lyra decided to rub the fact that Bon Bon thought she was crazy in her face. 

"See Bon Bon, I told you Humans were real, but you didn't believe me." Lyra said with excitement in her tone.

"I-I... what?" Bon Bon could only mutter in confusement as she couldn't quite understand how it was possible that Humans waere real and one was here.

Her Marefriend would always talk about Humans being real and existing. When Bon Bin first found out about it, she kind of thought she was crazy, but she ignored it. She always brushed it off the side, but now... there was actually a Human here.

Delirious seemed to get a little impatient and didn't want his trip to Princess Twilight to get delayed any longer. "I get it, I'm a E.T. alien to you guys, but I really got to see this Twilight, so I could possibly get home. Right Zecora?" Delirious said.

"Agreed. Twilight has to see him, this instant. So we have to get Delirious home, so efficient." Zecora agreed.

Bon Bon snapped out of her confused state, but she still had some in her voice. "Uh... ok. We... understand." She said.

"Ok, well let's go then." Lyra said excitingly as she started walking on the path, only for Bon Bon to stop her.

"Lyra, wait!" Bon Bon yelled as she walked toward Lyra, who listened to her sudden command.

"Yeah?" Lyra turned around, only to get greeted by Bon Bon's soft mad expression.

"You can't go into Twilight's castle." 

Lyra instantly looked confused and was thrown off by this. "What!? Why not!?"

"Because she's a Princess and she can't just allow anypony into the castle. She might be busy."

Lyra started to look a little sad. "But... but..." She tried to say something, but nothing came out as she lowered her head.

However, Zecora stopped her sadness. "There's no need to worry about entering the castle's entrance. I'm a close friend of Princess Twilight, so I'm sure she wouldn't mind your presence." Zecora reassured.

"Really!?" Lyra and Bon Bon questioned in astonishment, although Lyra also had hope in her tone.

"Yep, what I say is true. Now c'mon, we have no time to lose." Zecora started walking to the distant castle.

Delirious followed her with a expression that just said the word: "Finally!" 

'My god, now we going somewhere.' Delirious thought as he groaned mentally.

Lyra smiled, which again, made a dog toy squeaking sound. She started to follow Delirious and Zecora.

Bon Bon started following the group as well, after she let out a sigh. It was crazy on chaos that happened today. First, she encountered a Zombie Squirrel (even though it was a prank, it still was scary and it felt real) and now she found out and met an actual Human. "*Sigh* What kind of chaos is happening in this crazy town?" She started to question as she continued to follow the group.

Little did she know, she would see the Dead Squirrel again, but this time... it would be alive.







"You did what!?" Rainbow asked in complete shock.

In fact, everypony in the Mane 6 (except Twilight) looked shocked. Twilight told them about the fact that she may of brought Squirrel here. Although she said it was a total accident, they were still shocked.

"Look, it was an accident. The beam that Discord made, was too powerful and I couldn't control. It wasn't on purpose." Twilight informed.

"I-I know sugarcube, but still, it's surprisin'." Applejack said.

"I agree, I never thought that your experiment would bring that dear Squirrel." Rarity agreed.

"Yeah, but now... I got to tell him that it was my fault." Twilight said as she lowered her ears. She knew that Squirrel would be mad at her for accidently bringing him to her world. Her friends though, reassured her.

"Now Twilight, I know Squirrel might be mad at you, but he will eventually understand that it was an accident." Fluttershy reassured.

"Yeah, Squirrely might be a little maddie waddie at you, but we aren't." Pinkie reassured.

"Yeah, I'm not mad at you either, Twahlight." Applejack agreed.

"Me too." Rarity agreed.

"Me as well." Fluttershy agreed.

"Even though you did screw up massively, we are still not mad at you." Rainbow agreed.

Twilight smiled a bit. "Thanks girls." She said.

"No problem, Twilight." Rarity said. "But, I think it's time to tell Squirrel the truth."

"*Sigh* I guess I should." Twilight said with a sigh as she was about to open the door to the throne room. "Ok, let's do thi-"

*THUD!*

A loud crash stopped Twilight from finishing her sentence. The Mane 6 turned their heads to the main entrance door of the castle and looked confused.

"Uhh... did anypony else hear that or was it jus' me?" Applejack questioned.

"I heard it too." Twilight confirmed as she started to walk to the front door. "It came from the door, but that didn't sound like a knock."

Twilight put her hoof on the handle and pushed the door open to see who made the noise.

As she pushed the door open, she saw a Mare who had a light gray coat and a yellowish mane and tail. Twilight instantly recognized the Pony to be... Derpy Hooves. She also noticed that Derpy was rubbing her head and wincing.

"Derpy?" Twilight said with confusion. "What happened?"

Derpy turned her head with her derpy eyes toward Twilight, while she continued to rub her head with her left front hoof. "Twilight, I'm sorry, I... kind of crashed my head on the door." She said with a sheepish smile, hoping she didn't tick off the Princess of Friendship.

"It's fine, just... try not to crash again, ok?"

"Ok, I'll try my best." Derpy's eyes then caught a few Ponies that were coming beside Twilight. It was the rest of the Mane 6.

Rainbow was the first to come beside Twilight. "Twilight, who's-" She stopped talking when she saw and instantly recognized the derpy Mare. "Oh, hi Derpy."

"Hi Rainbow." Derpy said excitingly as she waved her left front hoof that was used to rub her head.

"What are you doing?"

"Well I was flying, but uhh... I kind of got distracted. Also, nice prank you did on Ponyville. It was a scary prank and I got scared by it, but it was still a funny prank."

Rainbow had a puzzled look on her face. "Prank? What prank?" 

Twilight in an instant, had some sweat form on her head as she realized that the fake story that she used to cover up Squirrel being real, would be debunked, therefore making everypony worry in Ponyville.

"The Squirrel prank. Don't you remember? Well it's fine if you don't, I forgot things sometimes."

Rainbow had a dubious look take over her face of puzzlement. "A prank you say?"

"Yep." Derpy nodded.

Rainbow turned her head toward Twilight and was gritting her teeth together as she put the pieces together in her head. "Yeah, what a funny prank." She said frustratingly through her gritted teeth.

Twilight started to sweat more as she held a sheepish smile, trying to play off the look Rainbow was casting on her. If looks can kill then she would be 6 feet under. "Yeah, ha ha... a very... funny... prank." Twilight said sheepishly.

Derpy was still smiling, clearly not aware of the fire that was happening in front of her.

Twilight looked at Derpy with a sheepish smile and sweat pouring down her head, fearing that Derpy would find out the truth of Squirrel. "Say Derpy, I think you should... get going."

Derpy turned around, which had her back facing the Mane 6. "Yeah, I should, but I'm wondering, who's that?" She pointed her right front hoof to a direction.

Twilight's sheepish look washed off and was replaced with a confused look. "Huh?" She looked at the direction that Derpy was pointing at and so did the rest of the Mane 6 as they all had confused expressions on what she was talking about. When they laid their eyes on what Derpy noticed, they all had mixed emotions from a confusing sight.

They saw three Pony figures and they instantly recognized them. It was Lyra, Bon Bon, and Zecora, but they had most of their attention on another figure. It was a bipedal figure that Twilight instantly recognized the figure to be a Human. The rest of the Mane 6 seemed to be clueless.

While they were thrown off by the Human, Zecora, Lyra, Bon Bon, and Delirious was continuing to walk to the front entrance when they noticed the shocked Ponies.

"Woah, who are they?" Delirious asked.

"That's Princess Twilight and her friends." Bon Bon answered.

Lyra looked confused about something though. "Wait, why are they outside?" She asked with confusion.

"I don't know, but they seem to be in a trance. Still, we should introduce them to Delirious, perhaps?" Zecora suggested.

"Yeah, I guess so." Delirious agreed as he, Zecora, Lyra, and Bon Bon continued to walk to the castle.

'What in Celestia... how... what... is a Human doing here!?' Twilight thought shockingly. 'The only way a Human can be here is through the Crystal Mirror in the Crystal Empire. But if one did, Cadance and Shining would've told me. So... this shouldn't be possible. It doesn't... make sense.'

She snapped out of her thoughts when the distant group was closer to the Mane 6 and Derpy. Pinkie seemed excited and was smiling wide. 

"Hiiii!" Pinkie yelled excitingly as she waved her left front hoof to the group of 4. Lyra, Bon Bon, Zecora, and Delirious waved back at her. 

However, Delirious was curious about the pink Pony. 'Holy hell, she seems very enthusiastic.' He thought as he stopped waving. 'I'm starting to like her.'

"Hello Pinkie. Happy you seem to be." Zecora said.

"What can I say? I'm always happy." Pinkie giggled a little. 

Rainbow decided to step in ask the obvious question that most Ponies had. "Ok, who the buck is that!?"

Delirious turned his attention to the Pony who yelled and spotted to be a cyan Pony that had wings and rainbows for its hair and tail. 'Geez, she really wants everyone to know that she's a lesbian.' 

"Oh, he's a Human." Lyra informed casually.

Everypony had a pure shocked expression. They heard of Humans, thanks to Twilight's trip to Canterlot High. They were amazed that they were seeing a real life Human.

"Did ya say Human?" Applejack asked with a surprised tone.

"Yep, she did." Delirious said, which caught the Mane 6 and Derpy off guard.

Not wanting to make this interaction become awkward, Twilight answered the hockey masked Human. "Umm... hello, my name is... Twilight Sparkle." She greeted awkwardly, still with a face of shock. "Who are you? And how are you here?"

"So you're Princess Twilight?" Twilight nodded to Delirious' question. "Well I gotta say, it's nice to meet you."

Twilight blushed a little bit from his small praising. "Oh, uh... thanks, but you didn't answer my questions."

"Well for the first one, I'm H2ODelirious, but you can Delirious for short. And for the second one, I really don't know... I mean, I know, but it's going to a doozy to explain and right now, I'm so tired from walking in the Neversee Forest."

"Don't you mean the Everfree Forest?" Bon Bon corrected.

"Yeah sure, however you spell it."

Twilight was about to say something, but Pinkie beat her to it when she suddenly zoomed toward Delirious. She stopped in front of him with a huge smile as she was about to talk. 

"Delirious? That's a funny name." Pinkie said.

"Yeah it is, but I bet I can think of a funnier name like... Pinkie Twinkie." Pinkie giggled at the name Delirious said.

"Nice one Deliriously, but my real name is Pinkie Pie."

'Deliriously? What a weird nickname.' He thought to himself before speaking back to Pinkie. "Well it's nice to meet you Pinkie Pie." 

The rest of the Mane 6 and Derpy then approached Delirious.

"So you're a Human?" Rarity asked with a amazed tone, catching Delirious' attention.

"Yep, I'm a Human. You haven't seen one before?" 

"Well I heard of them from Twilight and might I say-" Rarity had let her fashion personality take over as she got closer to inspect his clothing. "-your clothing is extraordinary."

Delirious was confused by the complaint all of a sudden, but he still accepted it. "Oh... well thank you. I guess... So who are you?"

Rarity gasped in realization. "Oh, how rude of me. My name is Rarity, charmed to meet you." Rarity bowed gracefully.

Since Twilight, Pinkie, and Rarity introduced themselves, the rest of the Mane 6 thought they should.

"Hey." Rainbow called, which made Delirious turn his attention to her as she was in her gloating mood. "I'm Rainbow Dash, Equestria's fastest flier ever."

"I'm Applejack, nice to meet ya." Applejack introduced.

"And I'm Fluttershy." Fluttershy said in her shy and quiet voice, which Delirious didn't catch at first.

"Huh? What did you say?" Delirious asked.

Fluttershy seemed reluctant and nervous to answer back, but Twilight answered for her. "She said that her name was Fluttershy." Delirious rose an eyebrow that Twilight couldn't see beneath his mask, but she had a feeling that he was confused. "She's shy about newcomers."

"Ok... well nice to me-" Delirious stopped when he noticed another Pony that was along the group, but she (he assumed it was a she by her looks) hadn't introduced herself to him. "Wait, who are you?" Delirious pointed a finger at Derpy.

"Who, me?" Derpy said as she pointed a hoof to herself.

"Yup-a-rooni." 

"Well my name is Ditzy Doo, but I prefer to be called Derpy Hooves."

Delirious noticed that her eyes were cross-eyed, but he decided to not comment on it, considering it might a sensitive thing to ask about. "Well Derpy, nice to meet you too."

"Glad to meet you too, Delirious." Twilight said. "But I have a few questions to ask."

"Yeah, like how in Equestria are you even here?" Rainbow asked.

"Look, I'm kind of tired and need to take a seat, so I was wondering if we can go in your castle and sit down somewhere?" Delirious asked.

"Yes, can we go inside?" Lyra asked with a huge smile on her face.

Twilight feared that they would see Squirrel in the throne room and she wanted to avoid another Ponyville panic, so she was about to say no, but Pinkie got her words out first.

"Of course you can come. C'mon, I'll show you around." Pinkie said as she turned around and happily bounced to the front door.

"Thank you, now I can finally take a rest." Delirious said as he, Lyra, Bon Bon, and Zecora started to follow the bouncing Mare.

In an instant, Twilight looked worried and used her horn to teleport to the front door, which stopped Pinkie from bouncing. "I'm sorry, but you can't go inside." Twilight said quickly.

"Aww, but why not?" Pinkie asked.

"Yeah, some of us are tired from walking." Delirious added.

Twilight got close to Pinkie's ear to whisper to her, without Delirious hearing. "Pinkie, have you forgotten that we have Squirrel in the throne room?"

"No, I haven't forgotten, silly. I never forgot anypony or any animal, just ask Flutters-"

"Pinkie." Twilight whisper shouted, which silenced Pinkie. "If they see Squirrel, they will panic and tell the rest of Ponyville."

"Ohh, why didn't you say so?

Twilight groaned at Pinkie's question. Zecora then came beside the whispering Mares.

"Twilight?" Zecora called out, catching Twilight's attention. "Is this a discovery that you can't handle? You seem to not let us go inside the castle."

Twilight started sweating a little bit. "Well... w-we can't go inside." She said.

Zecora was thrown off by this and was confused. "Uhh... by any chance, why can't we, might I ask?"

Twilight started to sweat more, which became more visible to Zecora as she noticed it dripping down her head. "I-it's just... that... that we are currently having a problem right now and we don't want to make Delirious uncomfortable... Ha ha." Twilight laughed sheepishly, trying to hide the nervousness in her voice.

Zecora now knew that she was hiding something, so she started to become a little skeptical. "I sense that what you are saying were lies. Tell me, what secrets are you trying to hide?"

Twilight got very nervous now. "I... I don't know what you mean Zecora?" She started to walk closer to Zecora. She then started whispering to Zecora when she got close.

Everypony who was watching the scene unfold this whole time. However, when they saw Twilight and Zecora whisper, they were perplexed on what they were talking about.

"What the hell was that about?" Delirious asked.

"I don't know." Lyra answered in a perplexed tone.

"Princess Twilight seems to be acting weird." Bon Bon said.

They continued to watch the scene, however he felt something tap on his relaxed left hand, which made him turn his head and look down at the source of the poking. He spotted that it was Pinkie and she was looking up at him, like a cute Puppy would. This made Delirious' heart melt.

'She's so fucking cute! Holy hell!' Delirious thought in excitement.

"Hey Delirious." Pinkie said with enthusiasm.

"Hi Pinkie." Delirious responded back. "You need something?"

"Oh well, I was wondering if you wanted to take a break in the castle, since you're tired and I wouldn't want a new friend here in Ponyville to feel exhausted. Unless Humans can walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk and walk forever without getting needy sleepy. So, what do you say mister Delirious?" Pinkie said quickly, which made the information go over Delirious' head, but he caught what she was saying.

"Well I would like to explore the castle, but it looks like Princess Twilight doesn't want me to and is being a whhhorse." Delirious said as he let a small chuckle from his joke.

"Well how about I let you explore all of the castle myself?"

Delirious' eyes slightly widened. "Wait, really?"

"Of course, silly. I'll let you see it all for yourself."

"You promise?"

"Mister Delirious, I don't just promise, I Pinkie Promise. Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." She said as she moved her hooves around in a specific way.

Delirious rose an eyebrow. "What the hell was that?"

"Oh, well it was a Pinkie Promise to ensure that I won't lie to you."

"Nice, so are you ready to lead the way Pinkie?"

"Yup-a-rooni." Pinkie started bouncing to the front door, but this time, there was no Twilight to stop her, since she was busy conversing with Zecora.

Delirious followed Pinkie and so did Lyra and Bon Bon. Derpy noticed that the group was going in the castle, so she followed the group.

As Delirious entered the castle, he saw a huge hallway that blew his mind. "Wooww. This looks so cool." He said in amazement.

"I know right!? Isn't it amazing!?" Pinkie said.

"Hell yeah!"

Lyra, Bon Bon, and Derpy were still following Delirious and Pinkie ansld were entering the entrance of the castle. Derpy was the last to enter, which caught somepony's eye.

While the rest of the Mane 6 were watching Twilight and Zecora whisper, Applejack caught something in the corner of her eye. She saw Derpy go inside, which made her widen her eyes.

"Uhh, girls." Applejack said, catching the Mane 6's attention (except Twilight's and Pinkie's.)

"Yes, Applejack? Is something wrong?" Rarity asked.

"Well ah saw Derpy go inside the castle." Immediately, the rest of the girls' eyes widened. "An' also, ah don't see Lyra, Bon Bon, an' that Delirious fellow."

"We better tell Twilight." Rarity said as Applejack nodded.

Applejack turned her head to the rest of the Mane 6. "Alright, you girls try and stop the group from enterin' the throne room, while ah go and tell Twahlight." Applejack said as the rest of the girls nodded as they started to head inside the castle.

Applejack then walked to Twilight who started to talk to Zecora normally, instead of whispering.

"So you have a secret that nopony needs to tell and if it's spoken, panic in Ponyville will be held?" Zecora questioned.

"Yes, it's a secret that I really need you to not talk about to any other Pony, promise me." Twilight said.

Zecora said nothing for a few seconds as she was processing the information Twilight spewed. She then made up her mind and was about to give her thoughts to Twilight, until...

"Twilight!" Applejack exclaimed as she walked toward Twilight.

"Applejack? What's wrong?" Twilight asked, turning her head toward Applejack.

"It's about that Delirious fellow."

Twilight raised an eyebrow in confusion. "What do you mean? Deliriou-"

"Is inside the castle." Applejack informed, interrupting Twilight.

Speaking, of Twilight, her eyes were shrunken and widened. "Oh no, he's going to see Squirrel! Quick, let's go!" She then ran toward the door as Applejack galloped behind her, leaving a confused Zecora behind.

Zecora quickly blinked a few times, trying to understand what happened. "I'm really starting to question: what information did Twilight hurl? But now she mentioned... a simple forest Squirrel?" She said to herself in a confused tone, however she shook it off.

She then had curiosity take hold as she walked to the open front door of the Castle of Friendship. When she entered, she saw a gripping sight.

It looked like Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow, Fluttershy, and Rarity were crowded in front of a door, specially the door that led to the throne room. Delirious was in front of the crowded Ponies and so were Pinkie, Lyra, Bon Bon, and Derpy.

"Hey! What's the big idea?" Delirious asked with a slight hint of annoyance.

"Delirious, maybe you shouldn't enter this room. Maybe a different room would be nice." Applejack suggested.

"Why can't I enter this room?" Delirious narrowed his eyes. "Unless *Gasp* you're hiding something."

Twilight started sweating a bit. "W-we aren't hiding something, it's just..." Twilight tried to think of an excuse on why Delirious can't enter the throne room, but she found herself unable to think of one.

"That it is just boring and lame, just basically a library for eggheads." Rainbow pitched in.

"Ok, but I would like to look around the library. So pleaseeee, can you move?" Delirious asked.

"No, we aren't moving." Rainbow said, staying in her spot.

"I also forbid you from entering." Twilight said, agreeing with Rainbow.

"Me as well, so don't plan on enterin', sugarcube." Applejack warned as she had a slight glare.

"Me too, you shouldn't go inside this room, darling." Rarity chided in a soft tone.

"You s-should look for a different place to explore... if you don't mind." Fluttershy said shyly as she hid her face behind her mane.

"Okie dokie lokie." Pinkie said. "Well Delirious, looks like we can explore every part of the castle, instead of the throne room."

Delirious' eyes widened. "Wait, this is a throne room?" Delirious said shockingly.

"Pinkie!" Rainbow growled.

"Now I definitely need this see this shit." Delirious said as he ran to the door to open it, pushing the girls aside with his body.

As he was about to put his left hand to push the door open when he suddenly felt something pull his hand back. In fact, he felt something pull his whole body back, yet he resisted the force and continued to try and make his way to the door.

Turns out, it was Twilight and she was using her magic to pull Delirious from getting close to the door. "Delirious, you're not allowed in there." Twilight responded in a struggling voice.

"Pinkie, a little help here." Delirious pleaded in a struggling voice, trying to resist Twilight's magic.

"I don't know Deliriously, they really don't want you to see the throne room." Pinkie said.

"But you said you would let me see all of the castle. ALL of it."

Pinkie then widened her eyes on how right Delirious was. She did Pinkie Promise to Delirious that she would show him all of the Castle of Friendship. And nopony breaks a Pinkie Promise.

"You're right." Pinkie then rushed to open the door, but Applejack stopped her and now both of them were struggling to push each other.

"Pinkie, what are you doin'?" Applejack said in a struggling voice, trying to push Pinkie away from the door.

"I need Deliriously to enter that room." She responded in a struggling voice as she she struggled to push Applejack.

"We can't let you in, dude." Rainbow said as she started to also push Delirious, which did move him back.

"But why!? What are you hiding in the throne room, huh? Is it some sweets? Are you hiding doughnuts, cupcakes, or muffins!?" Delirious questioned as he struggled to push Rainbow.

Derpy's eyes widened when she heard the sweet goodness that Delirious mentioned...Muffins.

"MUFFINS!? Let me in!" Derpy then instantly zoomed to the door, but Rainbow stopped pushing Delirious and got in front of Derpy.

"Derpy, no. There's no muffins in here." Rainbow said she stopped Derpy from trying to enter.

"C'mon Rainbow, let me at least see if there isn't any in this room." Derpy started push Rainbow, but they seemed to have equal strength.

Bon Bon and Lyra were on the side, watching the scene unfold. 

"Delirious really wants to see the throne room, huh Lyra?" Bon Bon asked, however when she heard no response from Lyra, she turned her head on where Lyra was beside her. "Lyra?"

When she turned her head, she didn't see Lyra and was confused, but mostly surprised. "Lyra!?" She turned her head back to the Mane 6 and Delirious and saw Lyra rushing to them.

"Anything for the Human!" Lyra cried as she rushed in.

"Lyra." Bon Bon grumbled in a low voice as she had a annoyed expression.

Once Lyra rushed in, it created a cartoony cloud that had Twilight, Rainbow, Pinkie, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Lyra, Derpy, and Delirious involved. Though there was no fighting involved, everyone was pushing one another inside the cloud. While in the cloud, everyone was chattering and yelling in the cloud.

"Delirious, stop trying to enter the throne room!"

"NEVER!"

"Oww! Who's pulling my tail!?"

"Sorry Dashie!"

"Rarity, move ya bottom out of my face!"

"Well excuse you too, Applejack!"

"C-can't we settle this w-without violence?"

"Let Delirious through!"

"I want the muffins, let me in!"

At this point, it was a free-for-all and nobody was safe, well except Bon Bon and Zecora, who came beside Bon Bon.

"This is a predicament that nopony could've seen to happen today. Though, I can't figure out why with the throne room, this 'Delirious' needs to stay away." Zecora said.

"I... don't know either, but... maybe they will stop soon." Bon Bon said with a small belief in her voice.

"Hey! Let go of my hat!"

"Then let the Human inside the room!"

"Wait a minute, why are we in a fucking cloud!?

More loud chattering can be heard from inside the cloud, which broke Bon Bon's expectations.

"Or maybe they won't..."







"Well, it looks like I win!" Discord exclaimed happily as he tossed a red 6 UNO card on a pile of other UNO cards. He was so happy, he started to do a little victory dance as he got up from his throne he was sitting on.



Squirrel however, had a deadpan expression and looked a little pissed. "Wow, after at least 6 minutes of that UNO game, that's how it ends?" Squirrel said in a annoyed tone. "You're lucky you had that plus 4 wild card."

"I think you mean skilled." 

"Yeah sureee."

Discord and Squirrel seemed to be playing UNO and were waiting for Twilight. Starlight was talking to Spike about how Twilight was acting. And the Cutie Mark Crusaders were talking with each other about Humans, wondering what they are and look like.

*BANG!* *BANG!*

Squirrel frowned and looked more annoyed. "Ok seriously, what is that noise? It's been going for at least a minute now."

"I don't know." Starlight said in a confused tone. "I guess I'll check it out." She then walked cautiously to the banging door and so did Spike as he carefully followed Starlight. 

As they carefully approached the door, they heard some faint shouting that they couldn't quite decipher, since they were behind a door and there was a lot of shouts at the same time.

Starlight and Spike looked at each other worriedly, concerned on what's happening outside the door. She assumed it was Twilight and the girls, but why would they bang the door furiously?

Starlight then faced the door and used her horn to pull the door open. Once it was opened, many Ponies fell down on the floor

"WOAH!" The Ponies screamed at once when they fell. A pile of bodies formed that had the Mane 6, Lyra, Derpy, and Delirious in it.

Starlight instantly recognized the Mane 6 in the pile. "Twilight? Girls? What's going on?" The only answer Starlight got were some weak groans from the girls and everypony in the pile. There eyes were closed, since they were dazed from the fall.

Spike was still beside Starlight and was observing the pile, but he saw something interesting. He spotted a Pony in the bottom of the pile. Actually, it didn't look a Pony, or a Dragon, a Diamond Dog. In fact, it looked more like a... Human. 

This made Spike widened his eyes in realization and point a claw at the Human. "W-who's that?" He asked.

Starlight looked on where Spike was pointing and her eyes widened as well. She was surprised and confused on who it was.

They would get an answer when Delirious slowly lifted his head from the floor. Instantly, he spotted two figures in front of him and one of them was a Pony that had a horn, while the other looked like a big lizard.

He didn't know what to do, so he asked a question. "Who the hell are you guys?" He groaned in a low voice.

Starlight was reluctant to answer at first, but she eventually decided to answer Delirious. "My name is Starlight Glimmer."

"And I'm... Spike." Spike said, still with eyes full of shock.

"If you don't mind me asking, w-who are you?"

Delirious however, ignored Starlight's question as he started to move his head to look around the room. "So this is the throne room?" He said to himself.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders, Discord, and Squirrel all were curious on who was at the door, so they moved they got out of the thrones and walked to the pile to get a closer look on it. Well the Cutie Mark Crusaders walked over to pile, Discord snapped his fingers and teleported close to Starlight and Spike, but also close to the table, and Squirrel stood on the table to see the pile.

"Woah, who's that?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Why's it wearing a hockey mask?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Also, what even is it?" Scootaloo asked.

"Hmmm." They are muttered in unison.

Discord seemed to be having a grin on his face. "I heard of Dogpiles, but not Ponypiles." Discord teasingly said.

Squirrel inched closer to the edge of the table, so he can get a good look at the pile, but he couldn't really see with a Draconequus, a Dragon, some Fillies, and a Pony in the way.

'Damn, I can't see anything.' He thought in annoyance.

Delirious (who was still at the bottom of the pile) tried to pull himself out from the piled Ponies. It took some struggle, considering that these Ponies were heavy (probably from all the sweets they eat here,) but Delirious still managed to silp his upper and lower body out.

After his legs were free, he stood up and looked down at his clothes and dusted them with his hands.

Little did Delirious know, him standing up got Squirrel to get a view on what everyone was talking about.

When Squirrel saw Delirious, he had a face full of pure shock. Squirrel saw a Human wearing a hockey mask, a blue sweater, black pants, and he had some wonky hair. He knew instantly, it was Delirious (or at least his avatar.)

Starlight cleared her throat to catch Delirious' attention, but he was still dusting his clothes. "Hey, you didn't answer my question, who ar-"

"I don't know why Twilight didn't want me here." Delirious interrupted as he stopped dusting his clothes, which made Starlight form an annoyed look. Delirious then started to lift his head as he began to talk to himself again. "I mean, I don't know what woopy secret she's tryin-" Delirious stopped and had his eyes widened with an expression of shock. Delirious couldn't believe what he was seeing.

He was seeing a orange Squirrel wearing a sky blue bandana and was standing on a table. However, it wasn't a simple rodent though, this Squirrel had it had its left ear and left eye missing, since it had its brain showing, like some kind of Zombie. Delirious instantly recognized the Squirrel to be... well... Squirrel.

With their eyes widened and irises shrunken, they continued to stare at each other in shock. They didn't even blink. Starlight was worried and was looking back at Delirious then at Squirrel, worrying on how this scene would unfold. After a few seconds passed, they finally made a move.

At the same time, they both extended their right arm and pointed a finger at each other.

"DELIRIOUS!?/SQUIRREL!?"
