Overdrive 5,366 December 8, 2014 Share December 8, 2014 218294 I kid you not: Chapter 1 Winter came early in Ponyville, as it was barely halfway through November. The weather crew worked their hardest to keep the frigid temperatures and snow at bay, to which Mother Nature obliged with force. The plants quickly withered away with each passing hour, as earth ponies of all sorts scrambled to save their harvests and gardens, all to no avail. Chaos ensued, with each and every pony hectically rushed to prepare for the oncoming early winter. Yet, there were a few already prepared for the weather to some. Some even embraced the changing seasons, often experiencing boosts in business and productivity. Such was the case with one red stallion pegasus. The young, handsome pony worked day and night, often for days at a time, repairing cast iron heating stoves, fireplaces, and other appliances for those panicking and rushing around before winter’s onset. “Alright Mrs. Cake, I have your stove right here, ready to keep you and your family nice and toasty for the winter,” Overdrive said to Mrs. Cake. The stallion’s appearance often gave other ponies an intimidating first impression. His spiked mohawk, tall and skinny build, and bright red coat didn’t exactly give the vibe of “friendship” off, but once somepony came to know him better, understood the gentle, kind spirit within that body. “I know I quoted you that at first, the repair would be 35 bits. That being said, I found some spare parts for your stove, and it will only be a 25 bit repair,” Overdrive said, smiling in the process. “Oh, I do appreciate it, Overdrive,” Mrs. Cake responded, “You’ve helped us so much before, and now with the discount, I can buy Pumpkin and Pound Cake more gifts for the holidays. Just for your generosity, the next time you come into Sugarcube Corner, the order’s on the house.” He blushed. “You don’t have to do that, Mrs. Cake. Fixing things for ponies is something I enjoy doing. Anyway, I’ll make sure your stove is delivered by the end of the day. Tell Mr. Cake I said hello.” He received the bits from Mrs. Cake, and waved as she departed for Sugarcube Corner. He then looked over at the clock. “8 o’clock,” he commented, “It’s getting late. Probably a good time to close shop for the night, and just relax for a little.” With that, he turned out the lights, locked the door, and headed into his home, attached to his workshop. As he trotted into his living room, a familiar sound greeted him. “Sparky? Come here boy,” Overdrive responded, calling to his Labrador Retriever. The dog was still young, barely three months old. He had a soft, golden brown coat, and was known for his playfulness and spry nature. Overdrive found him abandoned one day a few weeks before, and instantly fell in love with his now-faithful companion. “I missed you, buddy,” he quipped, as he laid on the floor, playing with the puppy, before springing back up, remembering his duty. “Is somepony hungry?” The dog obliged with a bark, as well as a quick bit of begging. “Oh, alright. Come on, let’s get you some chow.” Overdrive trotted into his kitchen, with Sparky close in tow. He noticed the bowls were empty, then immediately filled them, one with Grade-A dog food, and the other with water. As Sparky chowed down, Overdrive lit his stove, then proceeded over to the refrigerator, in which he took out a few eggs, a tomato, and a block of cheese. He thought to himself, ‘omelet: quick, filling and just downright tasty.’ He cracked the eggs into the hot skillet, in which they sizzled upon hitting the hot surface. As they slowly cooked, Overdrive diced the tomato into small pieces, adding them to the eggs. From there, he grated the cheese over the eggs, and flipped the omelet over onto its other side. After a few more seconds of cooking, Overdrive turned the stove off, and slid the omelet onto a plate. Pulling up his chair to the table, Overdrive sat down to enjoy his simple, yet delicious dinner. After taking the first bite, Sparky came over and joined him, laying down at his hooves. Overdrive slowly ate, enjoying every bite of his meal. Once he finished, Overdrive stood up, took his dishes into the kitchen, and washed them in the sink. He then trotted back into the living room, and positioned himself in his favorite recliner. After finding a comfortable position, he grabbed the television remote, and turned the television onto his favorite program. After having a few laughs (at some other poor pony’s expense), he decided to call it a night. “Come on Sparky,” he called, “let’s head to sleep.” Overdrive walked into his bedroom, and sat down on his bed. Momentarily after, Sparky came bounding in, jumping on the bed, and finding his spot at the end of it. Overdrive briefly prayed, thanking the being above him for another successful, peaceful day. After, he slipped into the covers, turned out the light, and slowly drifted off into sleep, ready for whatever the next day held for him. 2 "I'd rather trust and regret, than doubt and regret."
