Haserman

Orange had run here from Pinkie's Hilarious House of Horrors after seeing Nightmare Moon 'oh god what happens if she follows me, that will be bad she is the most evillest pony that ever existed, she might banish me to the sun or something' Orange thought as he ran not really looking where he as going "I've got to get out of here maybe hide in a bush ... yeah no one will find me in a bush or what if" Orange continued to contemplate possible hideaways while he ran towards the edge of town. Orange had ran unwittingly towards the Nightmare Moon statue, 'huh what's that' Orange thought "Oh Celestia, she's found me got to run, got to escape", Orange then hastily started to turn and run but had ran into another pony who was dressed as a detective "Oh I'm so sorry did I hurt you, I'm just kinda trying to escape and stuff and probably hide in a bush ... hey what's wrong with your coat why is so weirdly coloured?" Orange asked, completely forgetting why he had started running in the first place.

Orange had been wandering through Solstice Heights for a while now, he was limping slightly on his rear left leg, his face covered in ash and the tips of his wings slightly singed but even through his injuries he still was able to smile. "What are the chances, a small explosion and some lightning isn't enough to stop me" Orange chuckled under his breath "Oh well it can't be that bad it was only a small explosion and a bit of fire, I am sore though ... Ah a doctor's surgery, this might be a better option compared to trotting back to Stalliongrad to see the family doctor". Orange was only passing by Solstice Heights to deliver his wares but due to some unforeseen circumstances ended up battered, bruised and slightly singed but surprisingly relaxed about his injuries. Orange walked up to the front of the Doctor's surgery, "Dr. Betterbones, what an impressive Doctor's surgery for such as small town" Orange thought aloud 'Oh well a doctor is a doctor right?' Orange thought to himself as he began to walk/limp towards the door. *crash* The door to Dr. Betterbones's office shook immensely 'um ok' Orange thought, not noticing the pegasus shaped mark on the inside of the frosted glass door. Orange pushed the door open, the door felt slightly heavier than any other normal door but Orange just assumed it to him just being tired. Orange continued to push the door open he heard a small bell above him to announce his arrival. Orange walked into the clean Doctor's surgery, it looked like any other stereotypical doctor's office except for a beanbag 'must be for the foals' Orange assumed. Orange began to look around a bit more 'seems pretty normal anatomical posters, pony skeleton, computer, books, knocked out pegasus by the door ... wait what' Orange looked down to the pegasus he had just pushed away with the door "Oh sweet Celestia I'm so sorry, what happened did I make it worse areyouhurtohClesetiapleasesayyou'reok". Orange began to panic 'what if I killed her, oh no I don't want to go to prison they do stuff to colts like me in there, or maybe I'll get banished I don't want to get banished, I like being unbanished' Orange continued to work himself up, he could feel the darkness start to surround his eyes. His last thoughts were about being banished as a banana as he collapsed onto the ground.

surprising flank enjoyment

'HA, a haunted house. These were never to scary in Stalliongrad therefore this will be the best place for me to prove myself' Orange thought to himself as he walked up to the entrance, unaware of the reputation Pinkie Pie had built up of having the scariest haunted houses this side of Equestria. Orange pushed open the door and stepped in, head held high full of hubris, Orange could only marvel at the complexity of the 'decorations', there were severed hooves hanging from the ceiling a pony skeleton in the corner, all of it just looked so real. 'Wow, everything just looks so well done, so real, this must be this pony's special talent or something' Orange shuddered at the thought of what that pony would be like 'creepy'. As Orange placed his last hoof into the threshold the door slammed shut behind him bumping his flank, Orange tumbled onto the floor that was made slippery with magic before hand. Orange slid head first into the pony skeleton, when Orange opened his eyes he remembered all to well about his bruised muzzle he had received at the house of mirrors, he looked up 'huh a white stick, oh wait' the realisation dawned on him of what had only happened just moments ago, "sweet Celestia" Orange yelled as he stood up quickly the skeleton falling into a pile of bones on the floor. 'Ok keep your cool ... don't panic, your just in a haunted house, it's just a haunted house, they're never scary ... right?' Orange started to calm himself down until he felt an unsettling crawling sensation on his mane 'uh is a cobweb stuck in my hair, wait ... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 black legs ...' "SPIDER!" Orange started yelling "GET IT OFF GET IT OFF GET IT OFF" Orange immediatley started to rub his head on the floor in an effort to forcibly remove the spider from his mane. After what felt like hours of head rubbing on the floor Orange was fairly certain the spider was gone 'what kind of pony would do such a thing they could kill a pony with tricks like that ... unless ... they ... want ... to ... kill ... ponies' "Oh no, oh no why does this keep happening" Orange at this point was truly and definitely scared out of his mind for the 3rd time this night. Orange then lunged at the door handle only to discover nothing "damn it". Orange then turned slowly to begin his long search for escape looking at every possible thing that could hide something that could pop out or grab him.

Orange stood there dumbstruck, scared out of his mind still but now one piece of candy richer. 'Well at least I have candy, even though I lost most of my dignity, oh well lets just hope I can somehow regain it by the end of tonight or I will forever be known as the banana fearing, slightly eccentric colt who tries to hide in bushes. I may as well head into town seeing I cant escape weirdness no matter where I go' With that Orange displayed his respect to the princess by bowing and then started to turn back to the direction of town trying to come up with an idea of how to redeem himself.

So are the rankings going to be put up after all the nights are finished, if so is there any other way we can check our ranking now. I'm not complaining I'm just curious

'Ahh a peaceful forest, thank Celestia, this night has been eventful enough for me all I need to do is take a nice long walk' Orange thought as he started down the track through the Everfree forest, being from Stalliongrad he was not familiar with the tales of monsters and dangers that lurk within the forest. So far Orange's night has been very eventful even after many scares and near mental breakdowns Orange was a bit edgy but not too shaken from the experiences thus far. "I can't believe I thought crazed poniacs would want to turn me into a banana, sometimes I think the hard work is starting to get to me" Orange muttered under his breath, "this walk will do me good". As soon as Orange walked past the threshold from Ponyville to the Everfree forest a noticeable change in temperature and lighting could be felt here it seemed more sinister compared to a few steps back. "Oh great, not again" Orange muttered turning around to see only an impenetrable wall of darkness, "why me? What have I done recently to anger the Celestial sisters". Orange turned back around and started a slow trot forward, he started to sing to himself an old Stalliongrad song, Orange not being the greatest song but the song did the trick and as he sung it with pride, memories flooding from his foalhood and as the sung progressed his couraged rose and so did his volume. Soon the whole Everfree forest echoed from the sound of his singing. Orange continued on his way singing loudly.

Orange continued on his way in his most miraculous bush escape, trotting along hoping that other pony would have been scared away by his talking bushiness, when two bits of candy dropped down off the branches 'strange that makes four now, what is so special about me getting scared and candy popping around out of nowhere. I may as well head to the centre of town for it is impossible to escape this accursed holiday' Orange continued on his way trotting with the bush still attached to himself hoping he can escape this night relatively unscathed.

Super awesome post By that guys just above me Pretty damn awesome

Orange finally came to the realisation of his somewhat crazy episode before, 'oh by the celestial sisters, if I reveal my self now I will be more of a laughing stock especially what happened in the mirror house. Maybe I could still escape by digging myself out ... no too conspicuous ... um ha I got it if I uproot the bush I'll be able to move it with me that pony will never see it coming'. "Oh hey is that a piece of candy over there" Orange quickly shouted without looking if his ploy had worked he had quickly uprooted the tree and started to trot away doing his best to not look too suspicious as a walking talking pony eating bush as possible.

"Uhhh" Orange started to panic "the talking bush of death does not know of this Orange you speak of, he is certainly not hiding from some crazy poniacs out in the open field who probably want to turn him into a banana ... or worse, so uhh ... yeah". Orange started to peek his head above his little hole trying to get a look at this other pony but consequently his Dark Orange fur stood out as it was not really designed with the idea of camouflage and concealment. "I warn you this last time I am a bush of death and ... st-stuff and I-I c-can eat you, I mean eat you and stuff, so just to be sure I'm not a pony in a bush but a killer bush of death that can eat ponies" Orange started to get quieter as each word began to make less and less sense. Still with most of his head above the hole Orange waited to see if he was as good as a liar as he hoped he was.

Orange continued to dig vigorously for salvation, already about half of his body was in the hole 'only another 50 or so metres' Orange thought to himself starting to relax at the thought of safety, these thoughts however were short lived as he heard a distinct voice behind him 'no, no, no, no, I was so close now somepony is going to turn me into a banana or worse, I could always fly away ... No that wouldn't work everypony knows banana magicians can counteract flyiness, wait what?' Orange's thoughts were cut short by the distinct sound of the bush being moved. 'Oh no, think fast ... deter them. How? I don't know how, think of something' ... ... "Uhh ... I am the bush of death and um, do not disturb me or I will, do something" Orange tried to state with a confident voice but only managed to sound even more nervous, by this moment in time even the loud crickets that could be heard around the Everfree forest stopped chirping from the sheer awkwardness being demonstrated at this moment in time, "I think, you have been warned, because I am a killer bush not a pony hiding from crazy banana wielding poniacs who seek revenge against Orange" Orange started to hold his breath, most of his flank in a hole in a bush in the middle of nowhere and surrounded by crazy ponies on the worst night of the year, hoping that his well developed ploy would work.

Orange who was still in the obviously shaking bush could hear all kinds of noises outside his little piece of bush heaven, but was still too busy being terrified to pay much attention. 'maybe I can dig my way out, yeah no monster can get me underground. Those poniacs won't ever suspect a pony to dig their way out to freedom' "Hey! Who do you think you are, trying to scare me! You leave me alone and don't come back you stupid monster!" 'Oh Celestia, they're already looking for me, have to start digging for my life'. Orange started to fling hoof-fuls of dirt in the air in a final effort of escape, consequently the already shaking bush he was using as a hideaway was now shedding large amounts of dirt in the air.

Chapter 2 '"Let me think about it... Nah!" Jiktin relied as he went back to gathering his gold.' '"Let me think about it... Nah!" Jiktin replied as he went back to gathering his gold.' 'There was a faint roar coming from the tunnel. Taking a look, Danton saw it was a Green Dragon. Thinking quickly, Danton grabbed Jiktin and hide behind a column by the tunnel to the exit.' 'There was a faint roar coming from the tunnel. Taking a look, Danton saw it was a green Dragon. Thinking quickly, Danton grabbed Jiktin and hide behind a column by the tunnel to the exit.' also a little description about the dragon might add a more menacing atmosphere 'You're welcome by the way. If I hadn't dragged you out of that cave, you'd probably be in that things stomach right now!' 'You're welcome by the way. If I hadn't dragged you out of that cave, you'd probably be in that thing's stomach right now!' 'Well," Jiktin started, "I once found about 100 bits in a dresser drawer in a Red Dragons belly" 'Well," Jiktin started, "I once found about 100 bits in a dresser drawer in a red Dragon's belly" "Once Jiktin stopped, Danton had to take a moment to gather his thoughts. It the rain had now turn into a down pour. Danton noticed Jiktin was in no condition to fly after that lightning strike.' 'Once Jiktin stopped, Danton had to take a moment to gather his thoughts by the time he was done the rain had now turned into a down pour. Danton noticed Jiktin was in no condition to fly after that lightning strike.' 'Danton then show Jiktin to his home. It was once a library wing but it is mostly inaccessible. The only entrance is through a cave hidden behind a mound of white rock slabs.' 'Danton then led/showed (personally though I prefer led) Jiktin to his home. It was once a library wing but it is mostly inaccessible. The only entrance is through a cave hidden behind a mound of white rock slabs.' Awesome I found some time to quickly proof read it ... so yeah great job by the way can't wait to see some more. Also under chapter 3 why does it say

Sorry I won't be able to read chapter 2 for the next couple of days (school exams ) but I'll try to find some time but if the previous ones are to go by chapter two will be fantastic. So if I do have time to read over it, my proof reading might be a bit rushed, this is just a bit of a warning so yeah, can't wait to read it though

After last nights close shave with insanity and consequent feinting, Orange decided to steer clear of the 'festivities' tonight by walking around the main festival grounds, on the border of Everfree forest. Orange had never been one for Nightmare Night or any other holiday that involved a Colt dressed in red delivering presents to all the foals in one night or the Feather Fairy giving young pegasi bits for molted feathers. Growing up in a utilitarian family in Stalliongrad allowed him to grow an appreciation for hard work not useless festivities yet Orange found himself in a town obsessed with his most despised holiday, he tried to escape it in Stalliongrad by visiting some old family friends in a 'small, quiet' town here but was roped into participating. Tonight though Orange was focused on staying away from any Nightmare obsessed ponies by taking a nice leisurely walk on the edge of town. As Orange walked under the wonderful night sky marveling at all the stars and he couldn't help but think back to his 'episode' last night 'do I really feint when I get terrified? I can't believe that I thought there were such things as banana poniacs that turn people into bananas and also why, when I woke up I had two pieces of candy under my wing? I guess I'll never know' ​his thoughts were cut short when he spotted a large ominous figure in the distance "nope, not going that way" Orange stated nonchalantly, "I can see where this is going", Orange started to turn away and walk the way he came in an effort to escape the weirdness this town seems to emanate. *rustle* Orange turned back to look for the source of the noise, all he could see was the same ominous figure, same ominous bushes and same ominous trees 'huh? Probably just the wind' *rustle* 'yeah the wind just blowing against some trees or something' *rustle, rustle* 'I think ... nah what am I thinking of, of course it's just the wind, not some crazed poniac wanting to turn me into a banana, or two crazed poniac wanting to turn me into a banana or worse, oh Celestia'. Orange could see the darkness start to cloud his vision "No, no, no ... that's preposterous, keep yourself together I'll go there and prove to myself that there is no such thing as a banana poniac" Orange muttered clearing the darkness from his vision. Much to his relief as he started to make his way closer to the figure it turned out to be a statue of Nightmare Moon the long defeated princess of fear 'see, I'm right' he thought to himself, out of curiosity Orange started to read the plaque: You dare to seek out Nightmare Moon? Then prepare to meet your doom! For foals she finds a special treat- unless you leave her something sweet! 'What a feather-brained idea offering candy so the Boogeymare won't get you, this is quite possibly the weirdest thing yet, who would fall for such a thing' Orange turned away to leave and to continue on his walk but froze in his hoofs as a loud cackling laugh screeched through the air. Orange turned around but saw nothing, "I know colt-fu!" Orange yelled/whimpered, his voice filled with an obvious lack of confidence. 'It's probably just a trick, but ... I might want to hide in these bushes just to be sure', Orange darted towards some nearby bushes leaving behind an Colt shaped dust cloud in his wake. Orange leapt into the bushes preparing for a long night. If one to look around the statue all would be normal, except for the obvious shaking and whimpering bush. Orange continued to contemplate the worse case senario (most of which involved banana wielding poniacs) but his thoughts were cut shot by the distinct sound of hoofsteps, Orange couldn't stop shaking and all his attempts only made the bush rustle more. The hoofsteps drew closer and closer ...

Exams all week from Monday til Friday , so I don' have time to do anything

Orange returned after downing half a bottle of 'confidence juice (vodka)' to seek vengeance against the mirrors that only a couple of hours ago made him look like such a foal. Orange stormed/stumbled through the doors to the mirror maze, ready to regain his honor that he had just recently lost, his normally quite demeanor gone as he started to walk through the corridors with no goal in mind. His face flushed and his vision slightly blurred, Orange looked upon the mirrors trying to stare them into submission, "think your so tough huh? Copying my every movement" Orange then immediately started to try to catch the mirror out by flailing his arms erratically looking for any differences, "Oh, I see you've done this before what about if I do this" he began to make faces that wouldn't have been out of place in a foalschool. Orange then pushed his muzzle against the mirror and began pushing the mirror flipped over and Orange fell head first into the ground. Orange awoke with a larger bruise on his muzzle and a sense of deja vu, "Oh horse apples on a stick" Orange swore as he tried to remember what he had done while he was full of 'confidence', hoping he didn't do anything he would regret or anything anypony would remember, he started walking aimlessly as he was lost for the second time in one night. Orange heard some barking and hoof steps nearby but did not take much notice, Orange continued on his way still lost wondering how he would get out of this confounded maze 'what mad-pony would ever conceive of such annoyi-' Orange's thoughts were cut short by a pony shouting "Is anypony over there?" Orange frustrated with the maze called back "No", Orange continued on his way hoping that he would get out by sunrise so he would be able to water his plants. As Orange rounded another corner he was confronted by a pink earth pony wearing a white jesters costume that he didn't recognise, slowly Orange came to the realisation that this pony was who called out, and also the pony Orange had just only moments ago been so rude to. 'Put on your cool face, smile ... not too much, maybe she doesn't know it was me ... yeah ... oh god what happens if she is one of those crazy banana ponies', Orange started to panic looking for a way out but couldn't see anyway out. Orange started to feel dizzy as darkness started to cloud his vision, 'not again' were Orange's last thoughts before he fell.

Orange looked through the long twisting hallway, concentrating, looking for a way out. He hadn't meant to have lost himself in the maze of dead ends and mirrors but he is now, "Curse my luck, by celesti ooff" he mumbled just before he walked into another mirror ... again. "Confound these mirrors the drive me to pain, at this rate I'll never get out", Orange continued to walk through the maze slowly, as time went on so did the well developing bruise on his muzzle. 'I can't believe I was forced to go to this foalish holiday' he pondered as he turned another corner 'when I get out I'm going to go home and just work on my farm'. Time drew on as Orange turned corner after corner each hallway looking more similar than the last he stumbled across a banana 'strange, somepony must have left it here' as he looked glanced upon a strange figure in the mirror but as quickly as it appeared it was gone, 'all these mirrors must be getting to me'. Orange had heard strange stories from his childhood in Stalliongrad about ponies going crazy about bananas, becoming obsessed to the point of complete insanity, thoughts began to buzz around in his head 'there might be one of those banana nuts in here, no there is there somewhere in here they'll find me and turn me into a banana or two bananas or maybe even worse. Oh Celestia help me'. Ignoring the banana Orange continued on, looking for his salvation with renewed vigor. Several minutes later he heard ponies talking behind him, not wanting to be turned into a banana he sped around the corner with as much speed his hoofs could carry him. Orange could hear another pony galloping behind him following him, he started to panic 'I don't want to be a banana it would be boring and how would I fly, what will people think of a banana running my shop ... my life would be ruined'. As he turned the fifth maybe sixth corner a mirror slid in front of him, before he knew it Orange was on the floor still surrounded with mirrors and now with a splitting headache. Behind him the hoof steps started to slow coming ever closer. Orange content with his fate just waited thinking of how he would lead his new life as a banana. He saw a pony round the corner holding a banana, Orange's mind went blank and darkness surrounded his vision. Orange awoke to a crowd murmuring over him, a cold breeze alerted him of the lack of mirrors around him. As Orange remembered the moments before he feinted he started to panic "No . NO. NO. NO" he shouted, ponies how form across the road started to look at him curiously, "I can't be a banana, I don't want to be a banana, please turn me back into a pony I hate being a banana". As Orange finished his rant with his eyes starting to water he noticed some ponies trying to contain laughter while others on the floor with laughter 'why do they think this is funny, I'm a banana, my life is ruined thanks to that banana nut'. As Orange readied himself for another rant he noticed his lack of banana appendages, then it dawned on him 'horse apples'. Orange picked himself up and flew as fast as he could to his home, 'hopefully nobody I knew was in that crowd' he thought as he started to make a list of excuses as how that wasn't him but his brother from the other side of Equestria.
