First Journal of the Storm Keeper
How I wish this was still just a dream. This... 'world'... can't be real. I only wish that I could understand how all of this is happening to me.... from a simple person who was going about his own business, to a runner hiding from what I assume is a royal guard. Let me explain what happened.
It all started on the day I was going to go to a convention. I got dressed that morning in a V-neck t-shirt, a pair of jeans, my socks, a worn pair of shoes and my favorite sweatshirt which I always wear with its sleeves rolled up. I put my sling backpack on and donned my hidden blades that I made for the convention out of a special diamond-steel alloy (it took me ages to get my hands on that).
Anyways, it all started so normally. Then I opened my door....
What happened next I can only describe as falling through the rift of space and time known to us only as The Void. After what felt like hours of falling I hit what felt to be an oak floor. I took no heed in this strange occurrence due to the fact that there was a few steps out of my house and I had a wood ramp lying at the end of it just in case one of my friends in a wheelchair came over. Then I noticed the books.
"What the?" I said. I took note that I was also indoors. I heard what sounded like a gasp. "Hello? Is anyone there?"
It was one of the few times in my life that I was actually scared. I turned a corner to look and saw..... a pony? No this thing had wings and a horn.... Then the unthinkable happened. It talked.
"H-hello? M-my name is Twilight Sparkle." she said in a feminine voice that was obviously frightened. "Wh-who are you a-and how did you get in here?!"
I replied in an honest voice, "You can call me Sabre. As for how I got here, I don't know. Would you care to explain?"
I heard her mumble something along the lines of 'it must have been the spell' and decided to confront her on it. "Spell? What are you talking about? Magic doesn't exist!" I said in a matter of fact tone.
"Doesn't exist?! Of course magic exists here in Equestria!" she said as if it was the most normal thing possible. "Now, I demand you tell me how you got in my library and where you came from!"
"Equestria?" I said. "Last time I checked I was in the suburbs of LA." I then pieced together the parts. This wasn't my home town, nor was it Earth. "I'm on a new world." I said in a somewhat downcast, somewhat amazed tone.
This baffled the... whatever it was, I really should have asked. "What do you mean a new world? Last time I checked only Equestria had inhabitable life." she said in her own matter of fact tone.
Something else then occurred to me. What she had just said was similar to Earth. If that was true.... Oh crap......
"I'm in a new DIMENSION?!?!" I said extremely surprised tone, scaring the pony-thing. "How is this even possible?! I mean humans haven't even gone to Mars yet! How-" I then looked at the pony, "Wait. You said something about a spell, and if what you say is true and magic DOES exist in this world of yours, then YOU did this!"
Twilight was taken aback by this statement. "Another dimension? Human? You can't be human, they don't exist!"
"Well they must 'cause you're looking at one! Deal. With. It." I said in a slightly annoyed tone.
By this time I could tell she was angry with me. "GUARDS!" she yelled at the top of her lungs.
In came a couple of... unicorns?!? OK, now this is just getting silly. Anyways, one was carrying a spear while the other was carrying a sabre (or saber, depending on how you wanna spell it). They rushed me with weapons at the ready.
All I can say is thank goodness that I decided to make REAL hidden blades and not stupid plastic or foam replicas.
Flicking out the weapons and having them at the ready, I broke the spear and stole the sabre as well as managing to get myself a hostage by holding the sabre to the guard's neck.
"Back off! I'm not afraid to kill him!" I yelled out. The guards backed off and I was able to escape the........... LIBRARY MADE OUT OF A TREE?!?!?!?...... OK, if i'm not dead then I must be insane. Once outside, I knocked out the guard and took the sheath for the sword. Sheathing the blade, I started running for my life knowing they would send more guards after me.
I noticed a large forest up ahead and decided to hide there for the time being. That's where I am now, too. Hiding out in what apparently is called 'the Everfree Forest', supposedly 'the most dangerous forest in all of Equestria'. Oi, I can't believe that even these supposedly 'royal guards' are afraid of this place, they keep mentioning how they would rather be literally kissing flank than coming in here on patrols looking for me. I found what looks to be ruins of an old castle out here. Heh, they'll never find me in this place. There are still so many questions. How can these beings do magic? Why does it exist here? How am I going to survive here? How am I gonna get back? I only wish I knew.
If there's anything I know now, it's that I have a name here that I like. The name is Sabre and I think I got that name because of what I took from the guard. Anyways, I'm going to end this entry here. Goodnight to anyone reading this, I hope you're better off than me.
