Me- Hello, and welcome one and all to 'Wishing Stars' chapter 7, featuring our special guests...give it up for...The Mane Six everybody!
*Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, Rarity, and Fluttershy all walk down a red carpet, with a spotlight shining down on them*
Rarity: Now this is what l call an entry...
Mikey(whispers to me): l can do way better...watch this...
*Throws a smoke bomb, and re-appears in a cloud of smoke in front of the Mane six, causing them to cough and sputter
Mikey(oblivious to what's happening): "Let's hear it for the turtle...BOOYAKASHA!"
Leo: Mikey! Pay attention! You're making everyone cough because of the smoke bobs...
Me: Sheesh Mikey, how many bombs did you throw down?
Mikey(chuckles nervously): Uhh...hehe...all of them
Donnie(yelling):What?! That was the last batch! lt took me forever to make those!
Mikey: Well, can't you just take forever to make some more?
Donnie(eye twitches): HOW CAN I MAKE MORE SMOKE-BOMBS WHEN I DON'T EVEN HAVE ANY FINGERS?!
*Donnie starts moving towards Mikey, angry and ready to tackle him
Mikey: Hehe...Donnie...take it easy...nonononono...AAAUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!
*takes of running
Donnie(chasing after him, only to bounce off sides of force field): GET BACK HERE!
Leo: Wow, Raph is pretty quiet...
Twilight: That's because he's still a cockroach...
Leo(turns red): Oh yeah...heh...guess we should turn him back...
Me: l'll get to that...but Donnie's not finished with his tantrum...gotta fix that first...
Raph-roach: Squeaks furiously
Me: Hey, don't rush me...sheesh...here's chapter 7 everyone! Thank you so much for the reviews...it means a lot, and keeps me motivated...have fun!
They all stared at the panicked cockroach crawling in Fluttershy's hooves.
"Wow...l've never seen anything like this..." exclaimed Twilight before suddenly pausing to think. Truth was, she had seen similar things, but nothing quite compared to this transformation spell. These stallions didn't even seem to be familiar with the idea of being ponies, let alone using magic.
"Awwwww...Raphie's so tiny...bwahahahahaha..." Mikey cooed, followed by hysterical laughter.
"I bet you're just loving this Raph...now you're a cockroach...it's actually a good look for you...definitely an improvement...hahaha".
"At least one of us is enjoying this..." said Leo, as Raph squeaked furiously at Mikey, trying to get to him, but Fluttershy cupped her pale hooves over him, thus stopping him.
"l'm so sorry Raphael...but this is just until we find a way to fix you...l mean, get you back into your normal form" she added, seeing that Raph stopped fighting and froze, as if in fear. She could feel him relax after she added the latter part to her statement. She silently wondered what his life was like. What caused him to lose his temper so easily? Why did he take the transforming blow for her, after only just meeting her? She didn't want to say anything, but she felt some sort of attraction to the red- manned stallion, or at least a sense of admiration...she couldn't help but admire his bravery
Meanwhile, Applejack was standing outside the force field surrounding Donnie. She felt bad for him- he must be feeling pretty confused and scared, she thought, as she placed her hoof on the wall, causing Donnie's eyes to widen in curiosity, and something else as she smiled sympathetically at him.
"Hey Donnie...l'm sorry this is the way we had to get y'all to calm down...l reckon this is a pretty big change for you an' your brothers...but we need you to calm down and trust us...l promise we ain't gonna hurt y'all, but we need to work together if we're gonna get through this..."
Inside the bubble, Donnie watched and listened as the country mare gently talked rationally and listened with undivided attention. He liked how she didn't try to ignore the situation, but, like he would normally do, find a way to work through the problem at hand...there was something about her that struck him as a person with incredible trustworthiness...the least he could do was listen to her respectfully. He couldn't help but wonder why she was bothering to try helping him at all- usually he was the one helping everyone else...he had to admit it was nice to have someone try and help him for once. Even from a cute mare from an entirely different universe.
Meanwhile, Applejack couldn't help but notice how quickly Donnie had calmed down...it was kind of cute to see him calm down that quickly...it kind of reminded her of when Apple Blossom was a tiny filly, and how Applejack would comfort her when she was upset...she missed those good old days. Donnie had reminded Applejack of one particular time when Apple Blossom had freaked out on a terrible stormy night, not knowing what a thunderstorm was...granted, she didn't start transforming everything in sight, but both freaked out more out of fear than anger...and to Applejack, even the greatest of stallions had a bit of colt within...and it was refreshing to her to see someone let out their true feelings rather than try to hide them in a false attempt to seem tough.
Donnie looked past Applejack, and noticed for the first tie the mess he had created...granted, it was an accident, but he couldn't help but be embarrassed as he remembered his loss of control.
"Umm...geez, l really messed up this time, huh?" he asked, rubbing the back of his head nervously.
"Yup...but we all do that every now and then." She replied.
Donnie looked at her incredulously "Trashing places, making them look like war-ones?!"
Applejack chuckled, causing Donnie to blush " 'course not...l was talking about messing up. You probably didn't even realize what you were doing when you freaked out...unicorns using magic for their first time don't have much control of their magical abilities either...and with you being a full-grown stallion, you're magic is probably stronger than most fillies and colts who happen to be unicorns..." she trailed off, thinking about how crazy this all was.
Meanwhile, the others were huddled around Raph, who was crawling around Fluttershy in a calm manner...considering he was a cockroach and all.
"So, how do we change him back to normal?" asked Leo, concerned about his hot-headed brother.
Twilight sighed "It actually shouldn't be too hard...l've transformed things before...it would just be a matter of keeping him still..."
Mikey spoke up " l think the real question here should be if we all really want to change him back...after all, he's much more better looking this way...not to mention, he is soooo much quieter..."with that, Rainbow and Pinkie started laughing as he smiled mischievously, yet innocently.
Fluttershy frowned..." l don't think that's a very nice thing to say, given the situation...think of how poor Raph feels..." she trailed off, causing the others to feel a bit ashamed.
Inside Raph's mind, emotions and thoughts were all swirling like a raging tornado. He had begun wishing he was big enough to pummel Mikey... until Fluttershy spoke up for him, which made him feel...well, he wasn't even sure how to describe it...she was not only beautiful, but also sweet and gentle...geez, was this how Donnie felt with April?
When that beam headed towards her, he didn't even think twice...he wouldn't stand to see anyone get hurt, but something inside him panicked seeing that look of terror on her face.
However, he nearly panicked when he found himself looking up at a very big Fluttershy. When he realized he had six legs now instead of four, or even two, which would have been preferable, he nearly fainted, seeing how he was now his worst nightmare...what kind of sick joke was karma and fate trying to play on him? First a pegasi, now a cockroach?! This was almost too much...
"Alright, everyone stand back...Fluttershy, explain to Raph what'll happen please? You seem to be the best with calming people down..."
"Of course she is! After all, she did take out that dragon that was polluting Ponyville!" Rainbow cheered!
This caught Mikey's interest, though he couldn't say whether it was the prospect of an actual, fire-breathing dragon being fought by someone other than him, or the awesome pegasi mare herself.
Before Mikey could say anything though,Rarity joined in "Or what about the time she tamed Discord? Oh my, was that crazy..."
Pinkie shook her head "No...that was pure chaos...funny, considering he's the Lord of Chaos..."
This caused Leo to frown- "Lord of Chaos? That doesn't sound-"
"Did somebody call me?" a loud, eeringly cheerful voice asked, as it filled the room, alerting the ninjas into full attack stance.
Raph- What the shell?!
Mikey(gasps)- Raph! Language! We are in the presence of ladies...
Me- Umm, guys, can you still use shell references? l mean, since you technically aren't turtles anymore...well, not in this world...universe...call it what you will, but l think we all get the message here...
Donnie- Well, technically, this is your story...you can, and l hate to admit it, can do anything in this story with us, or the others...
Rainbow- SHE CAN WHAT?!
Leo(smugly)- Well, she can do and say pretty much anything, as long as it's appropriate, and she makes sure she says she doesn't own us...
Me(stops writing)- WHAT?!
Donnie- What's that?
Me(tries to hide paper and ask innocently)- What's what? No, no Mikey, don't you...hey, give it back!
*Mikey snatches my paper, begins to read...
Mikey(reads aloud)- " Operation: Ownership...step-by step process in gaining ownership rights...step 1- locate original creators...
Donnie- Are you seriously considering carrying this out?
Me-Oh, no, no, l couldn't possibly...*coughs 'not..yet..'
Twilight- We all heard that...
Me- Dang it...Hope you enjoyed the chapter y'all...lemme know what you think...
Pinkie- In other words...READ AND REVIEW FOLKS! :D
