To Pixel Hope from Stainless Titanium Curiosity got the Pony The desert storm blew up the sand as Stainless stepped into 'The Internet' from his portal. Pulling up his jacket and adjusting his hood he mounted his 450DXK Turbo and rode into depth of the Internet. Passing many strange sights on his way to a little town to which hung the sign 'www.everypony.com', Stainless calmly rode the motorbike to the towns centre where there sat a small old bar. The bar was full of a mixture of creatures ranging from humans to ponies sat on 5 tables and 2 of the 6 bar stools, to which Stainless walked to the last but one, with each step being watched by the bars crowd till he sat down and rapped at the bar signaling white pegasus behind the bar for a pint. Pixel Hope watched from the table he sat at with his mates. There were a lot of rumours about Stainless and his human nature, tinted by the human world unlike himself who grew up in Equestria. Many a pony that had been to the Internet land, always came back and dropped a few names, like the bar owner Grey Nightmare or his top employees Flash and Foxytail, even Raindrop and Zephyr who stood behind the bar, he met Scyithe and Berry when he first came here. Among all the names, only a few came with a friendly warning, and less again came with just a warning, to which everypony would mention the human called Stainless and his metal beast of magic and fire. Yet there he was, drinking a cold pint of cider at the bar watching the TV and requesting tracks for the DJ to play like every other creature in the bar. This carried on though out the night, Pixel watched Stainless just sit at the bar drinking and drawing something till it came time for him and his pals to return to his home back in Equestria who all past the human at the bar carefully before reaching the door. “That human is scary” Said one of Pixel's friends “Yea, you can't see his eyes, and it said hes caused a fight or two here” said another “And just look at the piece of evil he rides” Pixel's final friend pointed at the motorbike that sat sleeping outside the bar. Pixel noticed that slung over its back was a set of saddle bags much like his own hung up on his door at home. “Go on Pixel, dare you to get into one and go to the human world with him” “Yea, buy you drinks for a week” “Make that a year” So because of his mates and his curiosity of the human world Pixel found himself in one of the saddle bags and waving his friends off as he waited for the human known as Stainless to return. It was gone a full hour when Stainless left for his home, as he started the motorbike Pixel awoke from his nap and felt and heard the loud vibrations as Stainless rode his metal beast of magic and fire home. Pixel finally managed to peer out of the saddle bags fighting the wind that blew into his eyes, but all he could see was as the beast roared louder and louder, Stainless would squeeze its left horn and produce a massive clunk noise then processed to twist the right horn towards him. Pixel soon found himself napping again over the noise the metal beast of magic and fire made. BEEP BEEP BEEP “SHUT UP” BEEP BEE- “Another day, another dollar I guess” Pixel awoke to this voice and then movement as something large thumped around an area Pixel as now in. Peaking out from the saddle back he found himself in a bedroom full of large metal lockers and other strange things, he saw Stainless, least who he thought was Stainless getting dressed and leaving the room Pixel was now in. “Clair! See you LATER!” Stainless screamed and a will later a new deeper roar that sounded like the metal beast of fire and magic screamed and faded away. It was a full half hour before Pixel came out from his hiding place and viewed what he guest was Stainless' bedroom. It was full of large work benches and metal lockers, all full with strange tools and objects. From the roof hung piping and wheels and at the back sat another Beast of Magic and Fire. This beast looked nothing like the one Stainless rode, it was a dark blue, much like Luna herself and it its metal body was hidden behind all its blue body, only showing parts here and there but yet it had the two wheels and horns like the beast Pixel saw last night, what worried Pixel was a lack of that beast in the room and this new beast produced a more of a power then the one Pixel met last night. THUMP THUMP THUMP A new noise came from above Pixel who froze in fear as it got closer and closer to him. Suddenly the door shot open and new human entered the room, Pixel dived under the beast in hopes of hiding from it. “Where did he put it!?” It said as it picked things up and put them down again, getting closer to the beast Pixel hid under “Never in the sam--- HELLO THERE!” Pixel stared into its eyes and panicked, he tried to get out from the beast but it some how caught him and didn't want to let him go, not matter how much he struggled and the more he did, the more he became covered in a foul black liquid that came from its belly and wheels. “Hush hush hush little one!” Pixel found the human put its hands around him and pulled him free and held him up “Aww....you've gotten all mucky, better come with me, my little pony” Pixel tried to fight back but the humans strenght over powered his own as it pulled him to its body and hugs him tightly and headed out of the room that he thought was Stainless' bedroom. Stainless came back home after a good 12 hour shift of work. It was cold, he was hungry, and the take out he had picked up smelt good, till he got through his door and smelt his home. “Clair? Why does it smell more girly then normal in here?” Music came blaring from upstairs and the smell increased in stenght as he walked up the stairs to find out what Clair was up to. “Clair? Got take out, what have you be--” Stainless dropped the takeout onto the floor and the goods inside the bag made a bid for freedom. Stainless didn't notice, all he did notice as sat on Clair's bed was a little pony, who looked very unhappy, mainly because it was wearing pink frilly socks, a soft fluffy sweater and bows in both its mane and tail. “Why do you have a little pony?” Stainless asked Clair once he found her getting out the camera “Isn't he the CUTIES LITTLE THING!” “He looks more like the most scared and upset little thing to me” Stainless thought for a moment “Are you the reason my bike was heavy last night in the night!? Clair, where you find him!?” “Her and in your room!” Clair then started to pull Pixel about and take photos of him “Oh god” Stainless just put his face into his hands “I've gotta take him back, Flash and Foxy say I'm already pushing my luck, foal-napping will get me barred from that place” “Can I keep him?” “No, look, dinner is on the floor, sort it out and put mine in the oven. Come here little guy, I sorry about this, lets get you home.” Pixel did not struggle this time as Stainless picked him up and returned to his own room downstairs. Stainless flicked a few switches at the side of the mirror and like magic the mirror rippled and then became a portal to another world. Pixel saw the unforgiving sight of the Internet through the new portal and waiting at it sat the metal beast of fire and magic. “Lets get you back to the bar shall we?” Stainless asked Pixel as he strapped him down on the large metal body behind the beast's horns. Stainless mounted the beast himself and pushed a few buttons on its right horn causing a set of dials in front of Pixel to light up. Another button caused all the lights to dim and a whirring noise came that changed into the known roar of the metal beast of fire and magic. Squeezing its left horn, Stainless produced the clunk noise and then twisted the right horn causing the beast to scream louder and shoot forward. Pixel watched as the new speed became picked up by the left dial which chased the right dial that increased with the roar of the beast, again Stainless squeezed and twisted the horns to which the right dial dropped and then started to climb with the noise of the beast. Getting bored of this display Pixel stared around him and watched the world flash by at only speeds he guessed pegasi knew. It was not long before Stainless reached the bar but Pixel had become wide eyed with all the sites he had seen on their journey, some implanted into his mind and shall never leave or allow him to look at set ponies the same ever again, he'll also think twice before kissing Princess Celestia's hoof. Unstrapping Pixel from the metal body of the beast Stainless took Pixel into the bar. “Hey Stainless, you're in earl--” Raindrop stopped and stared at the pony in Stainless' hands “What did you do?” “Oh thanks, blame me” He placed Pixel who just remembered he was wearing frilly socks, sweater and had bows in his mane and tail “He got into my saddle bags and then my flat mate found him.” Stainless stared as Pixel tried his hardest to pull off the socks and sweater and pull out the bows, finding his magic not up to the job. “Serves you right” Stainless said “You do look cute Pixel, pull in the mares” Raindrop said in hopes of making Pixel feel better. “cough cough 'says the pony who wears dresses' cough cough” “What you say?” “Nothing! Better run Raindrop, dinners in the oven!” and as soon as Stainless had appeared, he was gone, leaving just an echo of his metal beast of fire and magic roar. Raindrop looked at Pixel and helped him off with the stuff “You know, Stainless once said something to me when I started asking questioned to him” Pixel just growled at Raindrop through the sweater that was now inside out on his head “Curiosity killed the cat, no idea what it means or how it can kill a cat” Raindrop finally pulled off the sweat and stared at a dazed Pixel Hope “But something tells me, this is what he meant.” Happy Christmas Your Secret Santa Stainless Titanium
