"Would you also like to sign up for a weekly information letter?" the man asked as I thought about it. We were walking towards the front of the building as we prepared to leave.

"That might be wise. I'll be sure to call if I need anything as I said before."

"Anything for you." He stated as I sighed. I hate being treated as I am a god. I made sure that they all got what they owned as to make sure they didn't lose anything and I could tell they were uneasy about me as if they were planning something. We soon made it outside as the guards herded the ponies over to my truck.

"Think they can fit Ben?" I asked him as he looked.

"They should all fit." He stated as he opened the back and pulled out the ramp and lowered it to the ground. The guards began to herd the ponies into the back.

"Be very careful sir… they have been known to gang up on their owners when they can obviously beat their owner and kill them." the man with the evil mustache stated.

"I understand." I stated as my phone began to ring as I pulled it out and flipped it open… yes I'm an old school guy…

Applejack's POV

We were forced into the back of this strange vehicle as the humans called it before the ramp was put away and the back was closed up. The humans all gathered together and talked. "We can take him…" Rainbow Dash whispered as we looked at the human that had bought us. "All humans are the same… disgusting perverts that hate our kind…"

"I doubt that." Rarity stated. "I just can't believe that human went through all the trouble to allow us to get clothes like this… humans are strange."

"Eeyup…" Big mac stated.

"He… seems nice…" Fluttershy said in her normal tone and volume.

"That's just what they make us think! Then they take us and force us to do their work!" she whisper yelled as I continued to watch the human… the way he looked at me… his eyes seemed like he wasn't happy with what was happening when I stared into his eyes…

"AJ?" I looked at Applebloom. "Are you alright?"

"Yes I am Applebloom… just… curious…" I said looking out of the fence.

"Its smells like milk in here." Pinkie Pie stated with a lick of her lips before she began to drool.

"Must be a farmer." Rainbow Dash said with disgust. "I've been here longer then all of you and if anypony knows farmers that's me… do not trust them at all…"

"Why?" Scootaloo asked her role model.

"Because they intend to breed us…" all of our eyes widened. "That's most likely why Big Mac is the only stallion here. Or he's bisexual." Soon the humans began to walk away while the other two began to talk shortly before one walked away and the one that bought us walked to the front of the automated wagon and then opened a door and got in. soon the entire wagon began to shake as we started to move.

"I doubt that Rainbow Dash. His eyes seem to show he's kind." Fluttershy stated.

"Just you wait." She said as she leaned back against the fencing that kept us in. "first light tomorrow morning he will have us working our flanks off…"

"Doesn't anypony believe that he could be a nice human?" Applebloom asked. "The only reason he got Scootaloo was because he somehow knew I was worried about her."

"Really now?" I asked surprised. "Humans don't tend to be worried for us ponies." She nodded her head.

"Yes I'm sure! Also his friend was really nice!" she said with a smile on her face as Winona ran over and licked her face.

"Now how did you get out of your cage?" I asked with a smile as she jumped onto my lap. "So Dash what should we expect then?" I asked her.

"Simple… his intentions will be made once we arrive. Don't believe anything he says and just watch what he does… if anything seems bad warn the others… male humans tend to want to just breed us but I have met a few that have bought many mares just to buck us all."

"Dash language!" I yelled as I covered Applebloom's ears.

"I'm just stating the facts…" we continued our talk about what to worry about and what to not worry about until we came to a stop.

Lance's POV

Getting out and cracking my back I was happy to be home but before I get back to work I have several things to take care of that I was told about. Closing the door I walked to the back and unlocked the back before opening it and pulling out the ramp. "Alright everyone out." They all got out. "The names Lance. What are all of your names?" they stayed quiet. "Please don't make me have to order you to…" I gave them a saddened look.

"Applejack…" the orange mare stated surprising the others as I smiled.

"Pleasure to make you acquaintance." She nodded.

"I'm pinkie Pie!" the pink one yelled jumping up.

"F-f-Fluttershy…" the yellow Pegasus said in a low tone.

"Rarity." The white one stated.

"I'm Applebloom!" the young mare yelled.

"And I'm Scootaloo!" the young orange mare yelled.

"Big Macintosh… or big mac…" the large red stallion stated.

"Rainbow Dash." The cyan one stated as I nodded.

"Well pleasure to meet you all. You can all go around and do your own thing since I still have things to do today." The cyan mare named Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes. "I'll be sleeping in the barn so you can all choose where you want to sleep and when any of you are hungry I'll make something for you all." And with that I walked away.

Applejacks POV

"See what I mean… he has other! Stuff to do today." Rainbow Dash stated with disgust. "In fact I need to ask just how is Twilight doing? I haven't heard about her in a while."

"She's been just fine!" Pinkie Pie stated. "Although she's worried for us all of course!"

"That's good to hear… let's hope she isn't caught up in all of this… I'm going to go and see if he has anything suspicious-" she stopped when she looked at the ground he had been standing. She quickly walked over and picked something up as she opened it to reveal a… knife… "I knew it!"

"Rainbow you know humans prefer to make sure they are safe!" I yelled.

"I'm keeping this…" she said putting it into a pocket. "I will never understand how Twilight was able to stay as a human…" they all walked off with their stuff to find a place to sleep while I looked worriedly towards where Lance had gone… walking after him I soon found that he was letting cows out into a large fenced off pasture.

"Alright girls get going… not you betty." The cow he stopped mooed at him. "Betty I can only let you go outside once you finish your medicine." He rubbed the cows head getting another moo. "Just go finish your medicine and I'll let you out with the others okay?" the cow walked back in as I saw a smile on his face. He closed the door as I entered through the large door to the barn as he moved hay bales around.

"need any help?" he jumped and dropped the hay bale onto his, what humans call toes, and yelled out in pain as he grabbed his foot before he looked with anger towards me before his face relaxed.

"Forgot you ponies now live here…" I heard him mutter as he picked up the hay bale and put it up high.

"Now what's that supposed to mean?!" I asked crossing my arms and asking angrily. I was still getting used to this human body no matter what others were told.

"Listen…" he stated as he grabbed two large buckets and brought them over to a faucet. "I'll just tell you now so you get used to it later. I only bought all of you because I needed to or else I'll lose the farm… a farm my grandfather gave to me when he died… my parents said I either get some 'helpers' or else I'll lose this place and I don't want to lose the place all of my greatest memories." He stated as he then started filling the second bucket of water as he lugged the first one back to where it used to be.

This caused confusion as to why he had gotten my family back together as well as give us clothes… "Can you please leave… I have a lot of work to do." I humphed as I left the barn in a fit of rage. This human infuriated me for some odd reason! Soon reaching the house I realized just how old this house was… some areas needed to be replaced… a window needed to be fixed…

I was surprised by how run down this looks but when I walked inside I was even more surprised to see that it wasn't run down! "Hi AJ!" Pinkie Pie yelled jumping into view surprising me.

"Hello Pinkie Pie. What in tarnation are you even doing?"

"I'm just looking around! I found a few interesting pictures to!" she stated pulling out several framed pictures as my eyes widened.

"Pinkie! Put those back!" I yelled at her.

"Why?" she asked with an innocent look on her face and with a tilt of her head. "There just pictures."

"They aren't ours!" I stated.

"Okay!" she jumped off as I, what humans call, face palmed. The bottom floor consisted of a hallway as soon as you walk through the door with two doors on the left and right with stairs a foot away from the door on the left. The door on the right showed a large living room with some things in it that I didn't recognize and the door on the left showed a dining room with many chairs. I counted… a total of 10 chairs… but why 10?

"Applejack!" I whipped around and spotted Applebloom as I smiled. "there are so many rooms!" she ran off as I walked back into the hall and walked down it to find a kitchen that had a doorway to the living room and a doorway to a little storage area for food. Leaving the kitchen I walked upstairs to find there were many bedrooms.

4 bedrooms total so one of them was Lances so the others were... guest bedrooms? There were 8 of us total so 2 per room with the beds. Three of them looked the same while the one looked like it was already in use so that was Lance's room. Rainbow was currently in said room looking around as I sighed. It's been more than half a year since she had been taken and I'm surprised that they didn't just out right kill her due to her attitude.

Lance's POV

Many hours later I sighed as I finished up in the barn when I realized I didn't have much food at all and ponies were herbivores. Spotting the large red stallion as he watched the two young's ones I walked over to him as he narrowed his eyes at me. "I know you all don't like me but could you please get all of the ponies together?" I asked as he grunted. But gave a whistle as the two small ponies ran over to him as they all walked inside... maybe I should of just lost the farm...

After about one hour I was so tempted to activate the nerve shockers inside of their bodies... I didn't like them and they sure as hell didn't like me.. They put them into the back of their necks connected to their brains so they could all die after several minutes of being shocked. I had the device hidden in the barn that I was given and it was connected to all 8 of them.

"Fuck it! Everyone out here now!" I yelled across the entire farm as only three of them came out and I could see that the others were watching from the house. "I asked nicely and yet you didn't come!" the three that had walked out was Rarity, Fluttershy, who was hiding behind Rarity, and finally Pinkie Pie. "Now then I realized I have to go food shopping. Not knowing just exactly what you all eat I'm going to ask if any of you would like to volunteer to come with me to go food shopping."

"Oh oh oh!" Pinkie Pie yelled as she jumped up and down with her hand raised. Sighing I nodded as she gave a very bright smile. "Yay!"

"Me and her will return most likely near sundown." few minutes later we were on the road with Pinkie Pie up front with me as she had her head out the window. "Alright Pinkie we are going to a market and I trust you to get materials that your species eats alright." she looked at me and a sound of a wooden board bouncing up and down in a spot sounded as she saluted. Giving a small smirk I shook my head slightly before turning my attention back to the road.

Several minutes later we were back in the tow as I pulled into the grocery store. Getting out with Pinkie as several nearby people stared at us as we walked in. pulling over two carts I put her at the bars of one. "Get what you need... I have the money..." and with that I looked at her to fine an outline of her there... without her of course... sighing I now understood why they called her the pink menace.

I began to wheel around the store as I collected what we might have needed... with how many ponies I had I would need to put in an order to make a large fridge room... I have the room in the basement to make one. After about an hour of getting stuff and searching for Pinkie before we bought everything we needed... I don't know how she was able to build a large tower inside of the cart but by the time we got outside it was nighttime and the grocery store behind us was just closing up. After taking 20 minutes to load everything into the back of the truck I couldn't help but sigh...

She had gotten many bags of grass and hay from their world as well as many bundles of flowers and stuff as well as a lot of baking material. First thing I was going to do tomorrow morning was put in an order to get a food storage shed and get a large fridge for the basement. "You strapped in?" she nodded with a smile on her face as I started up the truck and then left the parking lot.. After driving around town for several minutes there was a loud pop that caused me to jump as the truck swerved towards the sidewalk.. Quickly stopping the truck and bracing Pinkie with my right hand I quickly checked the roads and got out of the truck and went around the front.

"Damnit..." I stated. The front right tire was popped severally. I looked back down the street the way we came from to see a bag had been tipped over and a hobo was sleeping on a bench next to the tipped over bag. The bag had many things in it but I could see a lot of nails, glass shards, metal, broken cans... and many nails were in the tire.

"Is everything alright?" Pinkie asked as I stood up.

"Yeah... tires popped..."

"Don't you have a spare?" she asked tilting her head.

"It is the spare..." I stated.

"Need some help?" I turned around and spotted several large men. They didn't look drunk except for maybe one.

"Know a tire store near here?" I never bought tires from town. I usually ordered them from another company on the phone.

"There's only one that would be open at the moment but it's down a few alleys. It's a backwater shop though and they might not have the tire you need." the right one stated. The two were holding up the third as he stated something about 'fucking ponies' so that was either a good thing or bad thing.

"Any directions?" I asked them.

"yeah." the one on the left said as he turned and pointed to an alley. "Take that alley and then when you reach an open area go to the right... the third alley on the left will take you to where you need to go." I smiled.

"Thank you kindly." he smiled.

"No problem. I know the old man running the shop. Just say Jenkins sent ya." I waved them goodbye as they continued to walk as I turned around and looked at Pinkie.

"Stay with the truck Pinkie. If anyone tries anything scream as loud as you can." she nodded with a smile as she produced a cupcake from somewhere and licked her lips. Confused I just walked away and took the directions told to me before I reached the shop... 10 minutes later I came out with the tire as I rolled it on the ground… when I came out of the alley though… the door was open and the window was smashed…

And the pink pony known as Pinkie Pie a.k.a the pink menace…

Was gone…
