Give the pony hay
From Create Your Own Story
You get all excited and now feel full awake.
A transformation spell that worked! you proclaim loudly.
You hop and skip around your room, the thick soft carpet pads your high jump. You might be the most powerful magician in King Mackee's lands but you still have some learning to do. Plus turning humans into animals has always been your favorite kind of spell but you're also kind of terrible at it. One time you were so angry at the royal architect for not designing your office to be enough large, you swiftly tried to turn him into a goat. Unfortunately it was a ten-foot goat who chewed on your leg. You had to turn him back quickly to his human before before he ate half of you! To this day the royal architect hasn't forgiven you for finding his human self teething on your dirty toes.
The pony is quite adorable.
What a great pet you'd make, Dexter you pat him on his chubby head.
You take your wand, utter some magic words and, poof and a small boom, there's a small mound of hay beneath your feet.
You give some to the pony. He shakes his head vigorously.
Come on, it's breakfast you scold him.
Before you can attempt to feed Dexter again, he makes a dash out the door. Is it your still sleepy brain or did it look like his hooves were off the ground?
You run out of your bedroom into the long hallway that leads to the main stairs. The pony is nowhere in sight. He must have run downstairs! You call out for him and run to the main castle's entrance. No pony in sight.
You keep on calling and calling. The other members of the court stare at you in bewilderment. After looking all over the palace for a full hour, including the grounds and gardens, one of the guards tell you he too saw a pony. It was running to the dark woods past the castle's grounds.
You have to finally confess it was Dexter. All of the king's guards and yourself look for the pony for the whole day. He is never found.
The king is so furious you caused his royal chef to disappear. No one but Dexter knew the king's favorite dishes. You are banished from the kingdom forever and move out of your luxurious home to a poor magician's community. You are by amateur spell-casters but maybe this is exactly where you belong.
THE END
