Slow Descentby BzForgeChaptersPrologue: That Really Smarts (or Permission to Flip)Chapter 1: Oh Dear God (or Keep Calm, ask Questions)Chapter 2: A Nice Stroll (or Baker's Pride)Prologue: That Really Smarts (or Permission to Flip)Prologue: That Really Smarts "So what you're saying is that there is no possibly way for me to get back?" You groan. "That is correct." She says with a slight hint of sadness. Her words almost bring a tear to my eye, but instead of sadness all you can feel is pure anger at the moment. "God. Fucking. Dammit!" you yell with the rage of a thousand suns. With that out of your system you lay your head back down and close your eyes. "Don't worry I'm sure everything will turn out fine." Says an all to familiar voice. "As long as we're here we'll help make sure everything goes right." He assures you. "I damn sure hope so." you mumble sadly before falling asleep. -0- "Oh god my fucking head..." you mumble to yourself. "And why the fuck is my light so bright?" You say bringing your tone even higher. The pounding in your head feels like a symphony of power tools is going on at full power in your skull, the feeling of which you can attribute to one thing, a hangover. You try and clamp your eyes shut harder to possibly shut out even more of the burning light that is assaulting your senses, but only managing to make yourself slightly angrier in the process. Hoping to save yourself from the blinding and excruciatingly painful light you decide to get off the bed and turn it off. Rolling over on your side, you feel for the edge of the bed only to find even more. "The fuck is going on here?" You say hoping for some kind of answer.Slowly you open your eyes bit by bit to ease the pain and are greeted not by the sight of the white sheets of my bed, but a coat of green. "Michael you really should get up and see what's going on." Says a familiar voice. "Yeah, yeah G. I'm working on it." You say. "Good cause unless you look around even I won't have any clue what's happened." G. Says You feel like you should listen to G. right now because nine times out of ten he's saved your ass by being right. You slowly stand and are greeted by what looks to be the edge of a forest. You turn your head and look around trying to find your way, but in every direction except in front of you all you can see is dark trees and bushes. It seems to be that you're in a clearing just inside the edge of the forest which explains the light falling right on you. "We'll G. it think we may have gotten a bit more shit faced than before, because I don't think I've ever seen this place before and I can't remember a damn thing about last night." You say jokingly. "Well it looks like you're right because I don't remember this at all, and since we're so close to the edge I suggest we go ahead and try and find our way home." He says. You nod your head in agreement and take a step towards the edge of the forest only to be stopped by what feels like a knife being stabbed through my chest. "Oh my fucking god it hurts! What the actual fuck?" You yell and look down at your chest. "Michael what the hell happened?" He says staring at my chest. The sight of what it is makes you cringe. It looked as if a good portion of your shirt had been burned away, and that area of the shirt was stained with blood and ashes, but oddly enough there were no marks or anything just extremely agonizing pain. "I don't know but it hurts like bitch." you groan. The pain in your chest growing intensely stronger every few seconds. "If anybody is nearby could they fucking help me!" You yell out with tears slowly sliding out of your eyes from the horrible sensations. "Please, anyone?" You yell even louder the pain causing you to feel dizzy and disoriented.You try and take a few steps forward and end up stumbling and falling to your knees. "Please somebody help!" You yell as loudly as possible, feeling the blackness tugging at the edge of your vision. "It's coming from over here girls." You hear voices approaching ahead. "Hey over here!" You yell nearly blacking out from the strain. "There it is again. Come on girls something's hurt." "Hey look G. we got some help." You mumble. "Yeah good job Mike, good job." He says. The last words you hear before finally feeling the pain take care of you and knocking you unconscious. -0- "What... Girls... It..." "I... Know..." People talking around you. Which means you aren't dead, or at least you hope. More than likely you're in a hospital in one of those comfy beds of theirs. After a few minutes you can hear them talking again but you're still too out of it to catch what they're saying. "Should... Try... It up...?" "Not... Girls..." So from what you just heard it seems like the people talking around you are girls. Hopefully none of them saw you naked for any reason. Even if you're in a hospital and they are nurses you still don't enjoy the thought of other people, especially women, seeing you naked without your consent. After a few more minutes the conversation starts back up and you're able to make out what they're saying this time. "So do you think we can trust him girls?" "I'm not so sure about that, and just how do you know it's a him." "Well I had to examine him to find out and what was causing him so much pain, so obviously I removed his clothes and took a look." Well that confirms it at least one of them saw you naked, so much for your dignity being intact. "Maybe we should wait outside till he comes to sugarcube." Says a voice with an extremely drawn out southern accent. "I agree, especially if we don't know how he is going to act when he wakes up." This voice almost sounds kind of like an upper class lady, which strikes you as odd. "Okay girls when he wakes up we'll come and check on him." This last voice sounds like a voice of someone very well educated. After a few minutes of shuffling and moving you finally hear them leave and a door close. Without opening your eyes you can feel the presence of your friend G. By you again. "Hey G. any clue what happened last night?" You whisper trying to avoid alerting anyone to you being awake already. "I'm not so sure Mike, but I do know that something feels a bit off about this." He whispers back. "Yeah I know what you mean. I guess I'll just have a quick look around." You open your eyes and see a plain ceiling with one light in the center. Turning your head to your left you see what looks to be a bookshelf stuffed near to bursting with books. "Hey G. I don't remember any hospitals before having bookshelves like this." You whisper . Turning over you see G. In his normal clothes, a pair on clean black running shoes, a dark pair of jeans, and a dark gray t-shirt, and a concerned look on his face. "I don't think that's our only problem." He says looking down at you. "Wait what are you talking about?" You say as you try and sit up, but as you sit up you feel a tugging on your arms. You look down and see a set of straps fastening your arms and legs down on a sort of makeshift bed. "G. This is a very big problem." You say, accidentally raising your voice. "Hey girls I think he's awake now, why don't we go ahead and check on him." "Hey G. What the fuck are we supposed to do!" You nearly yell as your try and undo the straps. "I don't think we can do anything, those things are secured tight." He says. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck." You say trying even harder to get the straps off. At that moment you hear the door finally click open and in walks the strangest thing you've ever seen. What looks like a unicorn that's been dyed purple walks into the room and followed by it is another's unicorn that is completely white save for a very curly purple mane, a bright blue Pegasus with rainbow streaks in its mane, a pony that looks as pink as bubblegum, an orange pony wearing an old western hat, and at the back another Pegasus that is yellow save for its pink mane which you can see it hiding behind. You look back and forth between the creatures without saying a word and every second becoming more and more confused. "Good morning creature." The unicorn says. This shocks you right down to your core and you look over to G. Who is just as shocked as you are. "G-G. P-permission to f-freak out now?" You stumble across those few words trying to hold yourself together. "Permission granted." He says in a low voice. "Uhh, girls who of what is it talking to?" Asks the orange pony. At that very moment you decide to lose your cool, and let out the most unmanly scream ever heard on the face of earth and promptly proceed to pass out. "What just happened?" Asked the purple unicorn. "I've got no clue sugarcube..." Said the orange pony. Chapter 1: Oh Dear God (or Keep Calm, ask Questions)Chapter 1: Oh dear god It's black. Every single thing around you is a mess of black without any coherent structure. You search the area around you to try and find something recognizable, but all you can see is black. You can hear a faint ticking and you try to locate the source of the sound. You realize it's behind you and you turn to face the sound, but what you find is not a clock; but another person holding a pocket watch. The man is slightly into his forties, not yet very old, but old enough for his age to show on his face. He's wearing clothing unlike anything you've seen and sporting a set of wings and horns, each different from each other. He looks at you and smiles making it plainly obvious that he's missing a tooth. "Hello there boy." the man says. "Who are you?" "Who am I?" He asks in a mocking tone. "Well, I guess you could say I'm something akin to a god from your point of view." "A god? Not part of my imagination?" "No, my boy, a god." He says with a smile You feel a hand on your shoulder and turn to face the person, but standing behind you is the strange man. "Whoa! What the hell?" "Don't worry. I'm only here to give you some advice." "What kind of advice could a god have for a guy like me?" "Oh, just a few quick tips. First, be wary of the princesses." "What princesses?" "Oh, you'll meet them soon enough. Next, the pink one you meet is like you, make friends with her for she can help you." "What are you talking about?" "Boy keep quiet and listen." The last part of his sentence coming out so forcefully causing you to shiver in fear. "Third, do not tell anyone of this conversation or any parts of it." You keep your mouth shut and nod. "And lastly is-" A very loud ringing cuts the man off. "Oh, it looks like we've run out of time for now. I guess I'll tell you the rest later, have a good day, Michael." He smiles and starts to walk away. "Wait! Who are you?" You yell before he gets to far away. "Oh me?" He turns around still smiling "I'm Discord." He says as he disappears into thin air. "What the-" -0- It's bright again. You can never get used to waking up even if you've been doing it everyday for the past twenty-three years. Speaking of which you had a birthday coming up in a few weeks in September, but enough of that you just wonder about that really strange dream you had. You really don't think you were visited by a god in your dreams but your mind is telling you otherwise. "Yo, Mike, you up now?" Says the voice beside you. "Yeah, G. I'm up. I just had a really weird dream though." "Weird how?" "It's nothing so don't worry about it." "Alright then. Oh, also they'll be coming back around in a few minutes to check on you." "Wait, who is?" "You know, the technicolor horses that caused you to flip out?" You open your eyes and look around as he says that. Looking around confirms that you are indeed not at home and in some sort of library. "Oh dear god. So that wasn't some fucked up delusion?" You ask worriedly. "Nope, but seriously let's try not to do it again. Just try to keep calm and maybe we can figure out what's going on." "Yeah. Got it. Keep calm and ask questions." "Good cause looks like one of them is here." You listen and can make out the sound of movement in the hallway . You turn your head to the right to watch as the door slowly opens and in walks a lavender unicorn. "Oh hello there. Sorry to disturb you, I thought you were still asleep." She says sheepishly. "No it's fine I mean it's not like I was planning on going anywhere soon." You say motioning to the straps on your wrists and ankles. "Oh, sorry about that. I needed to make sure you weren't dangerous or anything." "Understandable, I guess, but could you get rid of them cause they kinda hurt." You say wiggling around to find some comfort. "Of course, just one moment." She says as her horn begins to glow with a glow similar to her coat's color. You watch in stunned silence as the straps are coated in the same glow as her horn and are slowly undone. 'What the, how did, was that..." You can't seem to find the right words and fail to make any kind of sentence. "That was magic. Haven't you seen it before?" She asks tilting her head to the side. All you can do is shake your head as you sit up. "That's odd." She says with a confused look on her face. "Well would you mind if I ask you some questions?" You collect your thoughts for a second to get your brain back on track. "No, go right ahead." "Okay then. First question, what are you?" "Well, I'm a human, or Homo Sapien as my people are sometimes called." "All right, well where are you from?" "I'm from a small town in a state called Georgia, which is part of the United States, on the planet Earth." "That's weird I haven't heard of anyplace called the United States." "Don't you mean Earth?" You ask completely confused. "No, that's the planet we're on right now." "Wait, what? How is that even possible?" "I'm not sure, but I'm going to have to research this." You sit in shocked silence. You never would have thought you could be on your own planet of all places, especially if you're seeing things you could only see in legends. "But, anyway who are you?" You sit silent for a moment and answer. "I'm Michael, Michael Evers." "Well then, hello, Michael I'm Twilight Sparkle." She reaches out a hoof for what you assume is to shake, which you gladly accept. "Well then, hello, Twilight." You two shake hand and hoof as she smiles up at you. From your point of view her smile makes her look adorable in the way a small puppy is adorable, causing you to smile back at her. "Since introductions are finally out of the way, do you mind me asking who this G. person is that you referred to earlier? Because i didn't notice anyone else nearby." "Oh." You say looking down away from her. "Well about that. G. is me, so to say." "He's you?" The confusion evident on her face. "Yeah and by that I mean he's the voice in my head or In my case the voice outside my head that only I can hear." "What do you mean?" "Well G. is I guess you could say an alternate me to help me deal with certain situations. Like right now, if it wasn't for him I would probably be freaking out." "I guess it's a good thing you have him then." "Without him I probably wouldn't be here to this day." "Would you care to explain?" "Umm..., how about at another time?" you ask trying to change the subject from an increasingly dark path it's moving towards. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to pry..." She looks down dejectedly. Even though she's not a human it still pains your heart to see someone sad. "Don't worry about it. I just don't really want to talk about it right now. Okay?" "Okay." She says with a bit of sadness still in her voice. "Seriously, don't worry about it I'll tell you about it later." She looks up at you and nods. "So do you have anymore questions?" "Well I have one more. Do you know how you got here?" "Actually I don't. I was hoping you might have some clue as to that, because I can't even remember what happened before I got here. All I know is that I was apparently drinking." "That's odd. Well maybe we can find out something around town." "I guess so but before that do you mind if I ask a question?" "Go right ahead." "Did I have anything with me when I got here, because I seem to be missing my shirt and I'm pretty sure I had some stuff with me." "Oh, did you mean this thing?" She says as a duffel bag floats from across the room. It lands in your lap and you unzip it to find your phone, a pair of jeans, boxers, a grey t-shirt, iPod and headphones, keys, wallet, knife, and a charger for your phone and iPod. "Oh thank goodness for extra clothes. Do you mind if i change into these really quick?" "No, go right ahead." You stand up and start taking off your pants when you realize she's still sitting there. "Umm... not that this wouldn't be the first time you've seen me like this, but do you mind if I do this in private?" feeling a little uncomfortable with her sitting there watching you. "Oh. Oh my! I'm so sorry!" She blushes and quickly exits the room. "Well ain't that something, Mike." Says G., chuckling as she leaves. "Definitely something." You continue to remove your clothing once she's gone. "Haven't seen someone feel that awkward since our first job." "Thank goodness it wasn't anything like that though." You say putting on the spare clothes "Yeah, but I definitely can't see anything like that happening while we're here. You know seeing as we now have no job and I'm sure you don't plan on using your experience for that here." "I know, I know." You finish putting on the clothes and look down at yourself. You're remember that your 5' 11", making the ponies somewhat short of 4 feet, and compared to most people you're age you're pretty slim, although you do have a bit of muscle, you definitely can't say that you're buff. You pull out your phone and see that you still have about three quarters of a battery left, so you open up the camera to get a better look at yourself. Your face still lacks any kind of facial hair that most men your age seem to sport, and your hair is somewhat long and curly which complements your light brown skin really well, and your eyes are dark brown, so dark you could almost say that they were black. You put the phone back up, satisfied that you don't look like a mess. "Hey, Twilight I'm done in here now, so you can come back in." You say hoping that she heard you. After a few seconds she sticks her head in the faintest trace of a blush still on her face. "Sorry about watching you. I didn't mean to stare." She says looking towards the ground. "It's fine I'm just not used to having people watch me undress. Not that I really care of course but this is kind of a different story." "Okay then." she says still hanging her head. "Seriously it's fine, don't worry. Now, how about we head into town and see what we can find out." "All right then." She says looking back up at you with a small smile, that makes you just want to hug her. Before you two can leave though you hear the growling of your stomach. She turns to you at the sound of it. "Well, before we go would you like something to eat?" "If it's not too much trouble." You say feeling a little embarrassed at the sound of your stomach. "It's no trouble at all, so just follow me." She assures you and heads through another door as you follow her. You exit into a room that appears to be a kitchen of sorts. "I hope you don't mind salad." She says as she levitates ingredients left and right. "Nope, salad is perfectly fine by me." You say as you stand and watch her work her magic. After a few minutes she finishes and levitates two bowls to a small table with pillows instead of chairs. You both sit down at the table and begin eating. Taking your first bite you realize that it is the best salad you've ever had, and decide to voice it. "Twilight, I have to say this is definitely the best salad I've ever had." "Oh, why thank you Mike, but really it's not that special, it's just a simple salad that's all." she says as she smiles. "Even if it's a simple salad, it's still the best salad I've ever had." "Well, thank you, I'm glad you think so." She says and you two resume eating. After a few minutes, and a full stomach you two finish eating. "Let me just put these up really quick." She says levitating the two bowls towards a sink. "Well while you do that could you tell where the bathroom is?" "Oh, that's upstairs on the left." "Thanks." You say and head out of the kitchen, up the stairs and into the bathroom to do your business. Upon entering the bathroom you see a sink a shower and a what you assume is a toilet. It's almost the same as a urinal accept that its on the floor and very long and there is a string hanging from the ceiling for what you assume is to flush it. You quickly do your business, wash, and head back down stairs. "All right, now that your done, ready to head out?" She says levitating a saddle with pockets onto herself. "Yep. Into town we go." You say as both of you walk outside into the blinding midday sun. Chapter 2: A Nice Stroll (or Baker's Pride)Chapter 2: A Nice Stroll "Damn it's bright outside" You say covering your eyes. "Is it midday or something right now?" "Actually it's around two in the afternoon." Says Twilight. "So how long was I out for then?" "Hmm... about five hours." You pause for a few seconds and think about her answer. "So what were you doing near the woods so early then?" "Well we were headed to Fluttershy's cottage for breakfast." "Fluttershy? We?" "Well do you remember earlier when you got startled and passed out again?" "Yeah?" You ask wondering where this is going. "Well the we would refer to all of the ponies you saw there, and Fluttershy happened to be one of them." "Ah, okay then. So then I'm guessing you could hear me yelling." She nods her head. "It really sounded like you were in trouble." "Well I definitely felt like it. I thought somebody was stabbing me in the chest." "Well when I checked you over I didn't see anything physically wrong with you." "That's weird cause that's not how it felt or looked to me." "I know, but if you want we can check again later." "Alright, so lets see if we can find anything out from anyone else." You say as you start walking down the path to the town. On the way you make small talk with Twilight by asking her about Equestria in general. She informs you that Equestria is ruled by two princesses, the eldest is Celestia and the other is Luna, who have been ruling for over a thousand years. "You know if I was told that by anyone else I wouldn't believe it, but seeing as I'm in a land of magical horses I'm sure anything is possible." "Actually we're ponies. Horses is kind of a derogatory term." "Oh shit, sorry I didn't mean anything like that." You say hoping you didn't offend her. "It's fine you couldn't have known, but be careful about it next time, okay?" "Will do." "So, Michael what was your profession on your Earth?" "My profession?" You stop again and look into the air. "Well I always wanted to be a baker." "Oh well maybe you could get a job at the Sugarcube Corner." "Oh that's right now I'm technically broke. Alright I guess that sounds like a good idea, but where am I supposed to stay for now?" "Well we can always ask one of my friends if you can stay with them for a while." "Don't you think that'll be a bit odd?" "No, I'm sure they won't mind." "Well if you say so." "So what kind of job did you actually do?" "Well I was a umm... entertainer I guess." You say while scratching your head. "You mean you can't remember?" "No I mean that's about the best way I can describe it." "Well okay then." After a few minutes you arrive in town to find that everything is just as colorful as you expected. There are houses of every color and the same goes for the ponies. While you look around some of them take notice of you and stare with wide eyes. "Hey, Twilight I'm not really liking the way everyone is looking at me." "Don't worry, Michael I'm sure everything wi-" "It's a monster!" "Everypony run!" "Aaaaaah!" Before Twilight could finish her sentence multiple ponies begin too freak out causing the other too all freak out and run. The ensuring chaos causes so much dust to fly into the air that it makes it impossible to see or breathe. Within a few moments though the smoke dies down and you can finally look around to see what happened. All around you it's empty except for Twilight who is by your side. You assume that everyone ran home or into one of the many shops around you. "So you were saying, Twilight?" "Just stay right here, I know how to fix this." "Alright then, I'll just have a seat right here." You say as you sit yourself on the ground. You look back at the Twilight and decide to give her a thumbs up, but realize that it probably wouldn't make any sense to her. "Go right ahead, I'll just be right here." She nods and walks off towards what looks to be a giant gingerbread house. You wonder how you didn't see it earlier, and realize that more than likely that this place is the so called Sugarcube Corner. You watch as Twilight knocks on the door and after a few seconds she is quickly dragged inside, with the door slamming shut behind her. Watching the bakery you feel as though someone is watching you and turning your head you spot a bright pink pony looking at you with wide eyes. "Uh, hello." You wave and smile trying to look as friendly as possible. Suddenly she gasps and rushes at you as she plants her hooves on your shoulders. "Hi I'm, Pinkie, you must be new in town because I know everypony in town, but then again you're not a pony are you? But if you're not a pony what are you? Oh since you're new in town you have to have a welcoming party! You like parties don't you?" She says without pausing for a breath, but with the speed she was talking you couldn't understand most of it except for when she asked if you like parties. "Actually I love parties." You smile seeing as she wasn't afraid of you. She looks down at you and smiles with so much happiness it almost hurts to look at. You watch her for a few seconds until she jumps off of you and starts galloping towards the way you came, without so much as a bye. "Well that was strange." Says G. "So was this whole fucking day." "True, true." "So how do you feel about all this, G., cause I'm still not sure what to feel." "Well, all I can say is nothing bad has happened, so I think I'm fine with this." "Alright, I guess we'll roll with this for now." You say and sit in silence waiting for Twilight. You wait for about fifteen more minutes until you finally hear some commotion coming from the bakery. Looking over you see Twilight and a few other ponies coming out slowly. She looks around for a second until she spots you and starts walking over to you with the other ponies following behind her watching you cautiously. "So I'm guessing it went well then?" You ask looking at the group of ponies behind her. "It took a bit of convincing, but they're willing to at least try and meet you, so let me introduce you to the owners of the Sugarcube Corner, Mr. And Mrs. Cake, the spa twins, Aloe and Lotus, Mayor Mare, and the school teacher, Miss Cheerilee." You stand so that you can greet everyone and once again you realize how tall you are compared to them. You stand at about five eleven, whereas they all stand around four feet, but you ignore that and introduce yourself. "Hi I'm Michael, and I'm kinda new here so umm... Nice to meet you all." You hold out your hand to shake with everyone, but the only one to readily accept it is the mayor. "Well hello there, Michael. As Twilight said I'm the mayor, Mayor Mare, and in honor of you not being evil, welcome to Ponyville." "We'll thank you Mayor." You say as you two shake. You turn to the others and hold out your hand for them to shake. "Well I'm Cheerilee and I'm the teacher at Ponyville elementary, so welcome to Ponyville, Michael." You both shake and you turn towards the twins. "Ve are ze owners of ze Ponyville day spa. I am Aloe and," "I am Lotus." The other sister chimes in as they both take your hands and shake. You look over to the last two ponies in the group and put your hand out to them. "I'm Mr. Cake and this is my wife Mrs. Cake and like she already said we're the owners of the Sugarcube Corner." He says as they both take your hand and shake. "Now that you've all been introduced I need to introduce him to the rest of my friends so if you wouldn't mind, could you let everyone else in town know that he's a good pony." They all nod at Twilight, wave and head on to do what she asked. "Thank goodness that's cleared up, now you can meet my friends, and then hopefully we can see if anypony knows anything." "Alright then. By the way Twilight do you happen to know an extremely hyper, pink pony?" "Extremely hyper, and pink? That sounds like my friend Pinkie, why?" "Because I met her while you were in there." "Let me guess, she asked you if you liked parties?" "Yep. So I'm guessing that's normal for her?" "For, Pinkie, it is." "Alright then. So where to next?" "I think we should go see my friend, Rarity, next." "Works for me." You say as you follow the purple unicorn. You still can't shake the feeling that you're being followed. Looking around, all you can see are dark store front windows, but closer inspection reveals a few sets of eyes here and there. "You know Twilight wouldn't it have made more sense if you had me wait for you to alert the town, before I came here unnanounced?" You see her pause for a moment before she turns and gives you an embarrassed smile that you find, once again, adorable. "Ehehe... You're probably right, but it's too late for that right now, so let's not worry about it." "Sure." She turns back and continues to lead you to wherever her friend is. Glancing around you notice that all the stores seem to specialize in only one specific item such as carrots, cucumbers, or eggplant, which strikes you as odd. "Hey, Twilight, how come these shops only sell one thing?" "Well that's because all the ponies sell things that were produced because of their cutie marks." "Their cutie marks?" You ask feeling quite confused. She turns and gestures toward her backside, and you notice the six-pointed star on her backside. "Okay so it's a tattoo, meaning?" "I guess it's like a tramp stamp." G. chuckles. "Shut up, G.! Sorry, please continue." You say as you hear G. laugh to himself. She looks at you with a strange look, but quickly shakes her head. "As I was going to say, a cutie mark displays what a pony's unique trait, or skill is." "So then what does your mean?" "It shows how I'm princess Celestia's star student and how well I do with magic." "Let me guess, she has a sister who's also a princess?" "Yeah, that's princess Luna, but how did you figure that out?" "Just good guess work, but tell me about the princesses." "It'll have to wait a little bit because right now we're at Rarity's shop." Looking ahead you notice a giant carousel themed shop with clothing in the windows. The sign on the store says Carousel Boutique. "So she's a fashion designer then." "Yep, now come on, we still have to see my other friends." "Alright, I'm coming." You say as you follow her inside. "Wouldnt't it be funny if this ended up like that one trip to Las Vegas?" You hear G. ask. "If it were actual women, then yes, but in this case hell no." "What?" Asks Twilight who seems extremely confused, but your seemingly random comment. "Nothing, just talking to, G., so lets meet this friend of yours." You say as you both enter the fashion store, and you see some of the most surprising fashion statements ever. "Holy shit..."
Prologue: That Really Smarts (or Permission to Flip)Prologue: That Really Smarts "So what you're saying is that there is no possibly way for me to get back?" You groan. "That is correct." She says with a slight hint of sadness. Her words almost bring a tear to my eye, but instead of sadness all you can feel is pure anger at the moment. "God. Fucking. Dammit!" you yell with the rage of a thousand suns. With that out of your system you lay your head back down and close your eyes. "Don't worry I'm sure everything will turn out fine." Says an all to familiar voice. "As long as we're here we'll help make sure everything goes right." He assures you. "I damn sure hope so." you mumble sadly before falling asleep. -0- "Oh god my fucking head..." you mumble to yourself. "And why the fuck is my light so bright?" You say bringing your tone even higher. The pounding in your head feels like a symphony of power tools is going on at full power in your skull, the feeling of which you can attribute to one thing, a hangover. You try and clamp your eyes shut harder to possibly shut out even more of the burning light that is assaulting your senses, but only managing to make yourself slightly angrier in the process. Hoping to save yourself from the blinding and excruciatingly painful light you decide to get off the bed and turn it off. Rolling over on your side, you feel for the edge of the bed only to find even more. "The fuck is going on here?" You say hoping for some kind of answer.Slowly you open your eyes bit by bit to ease the pain and are greeted not by the sight of the white sheets of my bed, but a coat of green. "Michael you really should get up and see what's going on." Says a familiar voice. "Yeah, yeah G. I'm working on it." You say. "Good cause unless you look around even I won't have any clue what's happened." G. Says You feel like you should listen to G. right now because nine times out of ten he's saved your ass by being right. You slowly stand and are greeted by what looks to be the edge of a forest. You turn your head and look around trying to find your way, but in every direction except in front of you all you can see is dark trees and bushes. It seems to be that you're in a clearing just inside the edge of the forest which explains the light falling right on you. "We'll G. it think we may have gotten a bit more shit faced than before, because I don't think I've ever seen this place before and I can't remember a damn thing about last night." You say jokingly. "Well it looks like you're right because I don't remember this at all, and since we're so close to the edge I suggest we go ahead and try and find our way home." He says. You nod your head in agreement and take a step towards the edge of the forest only to be stopped by what feels like a knife being stabbed through my chest. "Oh my fucking god it hurts! What the actual fuck?" You yell and look down at your chest. "Michael what the hell happened?" He says staring at my chest. The sight of what it is makes you cringe. It looked as if a good portion of your shirt had been burned away, and that area of the shirt was stained with blood and ashes, but oddly enough there were no marks or anything just extremely agonizing pain. "I don't know but it hurts like bitch." you groan. The pain in your chest growing intensely stronger every few seconds. "If anybody is nearby could they fucking help me!" You yell out with tears slowly sliding out of your eyes from the horrible sensations. "Please, anyone?" You yell even louder the pain causing you to feel dizzy and disoriented.You try and take a few steps forward and end up stumbling and falling to your knees. "Please somebody help!" You yell as loudly as possible, feeling the blackness tugging at the edge of your vision. "It's coming from over here girls." You hear voices approaching ahead. "Hey over here!" You yell nearly blacking out from the strain. "There it is again. Come on girls something's hurt." "Hey look G. we got some help." You mumble. "Yeah good job Mike, good job." He says. The last words you hear before finally feeling the pain take care of you and knocking you unconscious. -0- "What... Girls... It..." "I... Know..." People talking around you. Which means you aren't dead, or at least you hope. More than likely you're in a hospital in one of those comfy beds of theirs. After a few minutes you can hear them talking again but you're still too out of it to catch what they're saying. "Should... Try... It up...?" "Not... Girls..." So from what you just heard it seems like the people talking around you are girls. Hopefully none of them saw you naked for any reason. Even if you're in a hospital and they are nurses you still don't enjoy the thought of other people, especially women, seeing you naked without your consent. After a few more minutes the conversation starts back up and you're able to make out what they're saying this time. "So do you think we can trust him girls?" "I'm not so sure about that, and just how do you know it's a him." "Well I had to examine him to find out and what was causing him so much pain, so obviously I removed his clothes and took a look." Well that confirms it at least one of them saw you naked, so much for your dignity being intact. "Maybe we should wait outside till he comes to sugarcube." Says a voice with an extremely drawn out southern accent. "I agree, especially if we don't know how he is going to act when he wakes up." This voice almost sounds kind of like an upper class lady, which strikes you as odd. "Okay girls when he wakes up we'll come and check on him." This last voice sounds like a voice of someone very well educated. After a few minutes of shuffling and moving you finally hear them leave and a door close. Without opening your eyes you can feel the presence of your friend G. By you again. "Hey G. any clue what happened last night?" You whisper trying to avoid alerting anyone to you being awake already. "I'm not so sure Mike, but I do know that something feels a bit off about this." He whispers back. "Yeah I know what you mean. I guess I'll just have a quick look around." You open your eyes and see a plain ceiling with one light in the center. Turning your head to your left you see what looks to be a bookshelf stuffed near to bursting with books. "Hey G. I don't remember any hospitals before having bookshelves like this." You whisper . Turning over you see G. In his normal clothes, a pair on clean black running shoes, a dark pair of jeans, and a dark gray t-shirt, and a concerned look on his face. "I don't think that's our only problem." He says looking down at you. "Wait what are you talking about?" You say as you try and sit up, but as you sit up you feel a tugging on your arms. You look down and see a set of straps fastening your arms and legs down on a sort of makeshift bed. "G. This is a very big problem." You say, accidentally raising your voice. "Hey girls I think he's awake now, why don't we go ahead and check on him." "Hey G. What the fuck are we supposed to do!" You nearly yell as your try and undo the straps. "I don't think we can do anything, those things are secured tight." He says. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck." You say trying even harder to get the straps off. At that moment you hear the door finally click open and in walks the strangest thing you've ever seen. What looks like a unicorn that's been dyed purple walks into the room and followed by it is another's unicorn that is completely white save for a very curly purple mane, a bright blue Pegasus with rainbow streaks in its mane, a pony that looks as pink as bubblegum, an orange pony wearing an old western hat, and at the back another Pegasus that is yellow save for its pink mane which you can see it hiding behind. You look back and forth between the creatures without saying a word and every second becoming more and more confused. "Good morning creature." The unicorn says. This shocks you right down to your core and you look over to G. Who is just as shocked as you are. "G-G. P-permission to f-freak out now?" You stumble across those few words trying to hold yourself together. "Permission granted." He says in a low voice. "Uhh, girls who of what is it talking to?" Asks the orange pony. At that very moment you decide to lose your cool, and let out the most unmanly scream ever heard on the face of earth and promptly proceed to pass out. "What just happened?" Asked the purple unicorn. "I've got no clue sugarcube..." Said the orange pony.
Chapter 1: Oh Dear God (or Keep Calm, ask Questions)Chapter 1: Oh dear god It's black. Every single thing around you is a mess of black without any coherent structure. You search the area around you to try and find something recognizable, but all you can see is black. You can hear a faint ticking and you try to locate the source of the sound. You realize it's behind you and you turn to face the sound, but what you find is not a clock; but another person holding a pocket watch. The man is slightly into his forties, not yet very old, but old enough for his age to show on his face. He's wearing clothing unlike anything you've seen and sporting a set of wings and horns, each different from each other. He looks at you and smiles making it plainly obvious that he's missing a tooth. "Hello there boy." the man says. "Who are you?" "Who am I?" He asks in a mocking tone. "Well, I guess you could say I'm something akin to a god from your point of view." "A god? Not part of my imagination?" "No, my boy, a god." He says with a smile You feel a hand on your shoulder and turn to face the person, but standing behind you is the strange man. "Whoa! What the hell?" "Don't worry. I'm only here to give you some advice." "What kind of advice could a god have for a guy like me?" "Oh, just a few quick tips. First, be wary of the princesses." "What princesses?" "Oh, you'll meet them soon enough. Next, the pink one you meet is like you, make friends with her for she can help you." "What are you talking about?" "Boy keep quiet and listen." The last part of his sentence coming out so forcefully causing you to shiver in fear. "Third, do not tell anyone of this conversation or any parts of it." You keep your mouth shut and nod. "And lastly is-" A very loud ringing cuts the man off. "Oh, it looks like we've run out of time for now. I guess I'll tell you the rest later, have a good day, Michael." He smiles and starts to walk away. "Wait! Who are you?" You yell before he gets to far away. "Oh me?" He turns around still smiling "I'm Discord." He says as he disappears into thin air. "What the-" -0- It's bright again. You can never get used to waking up even if you've been doing it everyday for the past twenty-three years. Speaking of which you had a birthday coming up in a few weeks in September, but enough of that you just wonder about that really strange dream you had. You really don't think you were visited by a god in your dreams but your mind is telling you otherwise. "Yo, Mike, you up now?" Says the voice beside you. "Yeah, G. I'm up. I just had a really weird dream though." "Weird how?" "It's nothing so don't worry about it." "Alright then. Oh, also they'll be coming back around in a few minutes to check on you." "Wait, who is?" "You know, the technicolor horses that caused you to flip out?" You open your eyes and look around as he says that. Looking around confirms that you are indeed not at home and in some sort of library. "Oh dear god. So that wasn't some fucked up delusion?" You ask worriedly. "Nope, but seriously let's try not to do it again. Just try to keep calm and maybe we can figure out what's going on." "Yeah. Got it. Keep calm and ask questions." "Good cause looks like one of them is here." You listen and can make out the sound of movement in the hallway . You turn your head to the right to watch as the door slowly opens and in walks a lavender unicorn. "Oh hello there. Sorry to disturb you, I thought you were still asleep." She says sheepishly. "No it's fine I mean it's not like I was planning on going anywhere soon." You say motioning to the straps on your wrists and ankles. "Oh, sorry about that. I needed to make sure you weren't dangerous or anything." "Understandable, I guess, but could you get rid of them cause they kinda hurt." You say wiggling around to find some comfort. "Of course, just one moment." She says as her horn begins to glow with a glow similar to her coat's color. You watch in stunned silence as the straps are coated in the same glow as her horn and are slowly undone. 'What the, how did, was that..." You can't seem to find the right words and fail to make any kind of sentence. "That was magic. Haven't you seen it before?" She asks tilting her head to the side. All you can do is shake your head as you sit up. "That's odd." She says with a confused look on her face. "Well would you mind if I ask you some questions?" You collect your thoughts for a second to get your brain back on track. "No, go right ahead." "Okay then. First question, what are you?" "Well, I'm a human, or Homo Sapien as my people are sometimes called." "All right, well where are you from?" "I'm from a small town in a state called Georgia, which is part of the United States, on the planet Earth." "That's weird I haven't heard of anyplace called the United States." "Don't you mean Earth?" You ask completely confused. "No, that's the planet we're on right now." "Wait, what? How is that even possible?" "I'm not sure, but I'm going to have to research this." You sit in shocked silence. You never would have thought you could be on your own planet of all places, especially if you're seeing things you could only see in legends. "But, anyway who are you?" You sit silent for a moment and answer. "I'm Michael, Michael Evers." "Well then, hello, Michael I'm Twilight Sparkle." She reaches out a hoof for what you assume is to shake, which you gladly accept. "Well then, hello, Twilight." You two shake hand and hoof as she smiles up at you. From your point of view her smile makes her look adorable in the way a small puppy is adorable, causing you to smile back at her. "Since introductions are finally out of the way, do you mind me asking who this G. person is that you referred to earlier? Because i didn't notice anyone else nearby." "Oh." You say looking down away from her. "Well about that. G. is me, so to say." "He's you?" The confusion evident on her face. "Yeah and by that I mean he's the voice in my head or In my case the voice outside my head that only I can hear." "What do you mean?" "Well G. is I guess you could say an alternate me to help me deal with certain situations. Like right now, if it wasn't for him I would probably be freaking out." "I guess it's a good thing you have him then." "Without him I probably wouldn't be here to this day." "Would you care to explain?" "Umm..., how about at another time?" you ask trying to change the subject from an increasingly dark path it's moving towards. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to pry..." She looks down dejectedly. Even though she's not a human it still pains your heart to see someone sad. "Don't worry about it. I just don't really want to talk about it right now. Okay?" "Okay." She says with a bit of sadness still in her voice. "Seriously, don't worry about it I'll tell you about it later." She looks up at you and nods. "So do you have anymore questions?" "Well I have one more. Do you know how you got here?" "Actually I don't. I was hoping you might have some clue as to that, because I can't even remember what happened before I got here. All I know is that I was apparently drinking." "That's odd. Well maybe we can find out something around town." "I guess so but before that do you mind if I ask a question?" "Go right ahead." "Did I have anything with me when I got here, because I seem to be missing my shirt and I'm pretty sure I had some stuff with me." "Oh, did you mean this thing?" She says as a duffel bag floats from across the room. It lands in your lap and you unzip it to find your phone, a pair of jeans, boxers, a grey t-shirt, iPod and headphones, keys, wallet, knife, and a charger for your phone and iPod. "Oh thank goodness for extra clothes. Do you mind if i change into these really quick?" "No, go right ahead." You stand up and start taking off your pants when you realize she's still sitting there. "Umm... not that this wouldn't be the first time you've seen me like this, but do you mind if I do this in private?" feeling a little uncomfortable with her sitting there watching you. "Oh. Oh my! I'm so sorry!" She blushes and quickly exits the room. "Well ain't that something, Mike." Says G., chuckling as she leaves. "Definitely something." You continue to remove your clothing once she's gone. "Haven't seen someone feel that awkward since our first job." "Thank goodness it wasn't anything like that though." You say putting on the spare clothes "Yeah, but I definitely can't see anything like that happening while we're here. You know seeing as we now have no job and I'm sure you don't plan on using your experience for that here." "I know, I know." You finish putting on the clothes and look down at yourself. You're remember that your 5' 11", making the ponies somewhat short of 4 feet, and compared to most people you're age you're pretty slim, although you do have a bit of muscle, you definitely can't say that you're buff. You pull out your phone and see that you still have about three quarters of a battery left, so you open up the camera to get a better look at yourself. Your face still lacks any kind of facial hair that most men your age seem to sport, and your hair is somewhat long and curly which complements your light brown skin really well, and your eyes are dark brown, so dark you could almost say that they were black. You put the phone back up, satisfied that you don't look like a mess. "Hey, Twilight I'm done in here now, so you can come back in." You say hoping that she heard you. After a few seconds she sticks her head in the faintest trace of a blush still on her face. "Sorry about watching you. I didn't mean to stare." She says looking towards the ground. "It's fine I'm just not used to having people watch me undress. Not that I really care of course but this is kind of a different story." "Okay then." she says still hanging her head. "Seriously it's fine, don't worry. Now, how about we head into town and see what we can find out." "All right then." She says looking back up at you with a small smile, that makes you just want to hug her. Before you two can leave though you hear the growling of your stomach. She turns to you at the sound of it. "Well, before we go would you like something to eat?" "If it's not too much trouble." You say feeling a little embarrassed at the sound of your stomach. "It's no trouble at all, so just follow me." She assures you and heads through another door as you follow her. You exit into a room that appears to be a kitchen of sorts. "I hope you don't mind salad." She says as she levitates ingredients left and right. "Nope, salad is perfectly fine by me." You say as you stand and watch her work her magic. After a few minutes she finishes and levitates two bowls to a small table with pillows instead of chairs. You both sit down at the table and begin eating. Taking your first bite you realize that it is the best salad you've ever had, and decide to voice it. "Twilight, I have to say this is definitely the best salad I've ever had." "Oh, why thank you Mike, but really it's not that special, it's just a simple salad that's all." she says as she smiles. "Even if it's a simple salad, it's still the best salad I've ever had." "Well, thank you, I'm glad you think so." She says and you two resume eating. After a few minutes, and a full stomach you two finish eating. "Let me just put these up really quick." She says levitating the two bowls towards a sink. "Well while you do that could you tell where the bathroom is?" "Oh, that's upstairs on the left." "Thanks." You say and head out of the kitchen, up the stairs and into the bathroom to do your business. Upon entering the bathroom you see a sink a shower and a what you assume is a toilet. It's almost the same as a urinal accept that its on the floor and very long and there is a string hanging from the ceiling for what you assume is to flush it. You quickly do your business, wash, and head back down stairs. "All right, now that your done, ready to head out?" She says levitating a saddle with pockets onto herself. "Yep. Into town we go." You say as both of you walk outside into the blinding midday sun.
Chapter 2: A Nice Stroll (or Baker's Pride)Chapter 2: A Nice Stroll "Damn it's bright outside" You say covering your eyes. "Is it midday or something right now?" "Actually it's around two in the afternoon." Says Twilight. "So how long was I out for then?" "Hmm... about five hours." You pause for a few seconds and think about her answer. "So what were you doing near the woods so early then?" "Well we were headed to Fluttershy's cottage for breakfast." "Fluttershy? We?" "Well do you remember earlier when you got startled and passed out again?" "Yeah?" You ask wondering where this is going. "Well the we would refer to all of the ponies you saw there, and Fluttershy happened to be one of them." "Ah, okay then. So then I'm guessing you could hear me yelling." She nods her head. "It really sounded like you were in trouble." "Well I definitely felt like it. I thought somebody was stabbing me in the chest." "Well when I checked you over I didn't see anything physically wrong with you." "That's weird cause that's not how it felt or looked to me." "I know, but if you want we can check again later." "Alright, so lets see if we can find anything out from anyone else." You say as you start walking down the path to the town. On the way you make small talk with Twilight by asking her about Equestria in general. She informs you that Equestria is ruled by two princesses, the eldest is Celestia and the other is Luna, who have been ruling for over a thousand years. "You know if I was told that by anyone else I wouldn't believe it, but seeing as I'm in a land of magical horses I'm sure anything is possible." "Actually we're ponies. Horses is kind of a derogatory term." "Oh shit, sorry I didn't mean anything like that." You say hoping you didn't offend her. "It's fine you couldn't have known, but be careful about it next time, okay?" "Will do." "So, Michael what was your profession on your Earth?" "My profession?" You stop again and look into the air. "Well I always wanted to be a baker." "Oh well maybe you could get a job at the Sugarcube Corner." "Oh that's right now I'm technically broke. Alright I guess that sounds like a good idea, but where am I supposed to stay for now?" "Well we can always ask one of my friends if you can stay with them for a while." "Don't you think that'll be a bit odd?" "No, I'm sure they won't mind." "Well if you say so." "So what kind of job did you actually do?" "Well I was a umm... entertainer I guess." You say while scratching your head. "You mean you can't remember?" "No I mean that's about the best way I can describe it." "Well okay then." After a few minutes you arrive in town to find that everything is just as colorful as you expected. There are houses of every color and the same goes for the ponies. While you look around some of them take notice of you and stare with wide eyes. "Hey, Twilight I'm not really liking the way everyone is looking at me." "Don't worry, Michael I'm sure everything wi-" "It's a monster!" "Everypony run!" "Aaaaaah!" Before Twilight could finish her sentence multiple ponies begin too freak out causing the other too all freak out and run. The ensuring chaos causes so much dust to fly into the air that it makes it impossible to see or breathe. Within a few moments though the smoke dies down and you can finally look around to see what happened. All around you it's empty except for Twilight who is by your side. You assume that everyone ran home or into one of the many shops around you. "So you were saying, Twilight?" "Just stay right here, I know how to fix this." "Alright then, I'll just have a seat right here." You say as you sit yourself on the ground. You look back at the Twilight and decide to give her a thumbs up, but realize that it probably wouldn't make any sense to her. "Go right ahead, I'll just be right here." She nods and walks off towards what looks to be a giant gingerbread house. You wonder how you didn't see it earlier, and realize that more than likely that this place is the so called Sugarcube Corner. You watch as Twilight knocks on the door and after a few seconds she is quickly dragged inside, with the door slamming shut behind her. Watching the bakery you feel as though someone is watching you and turning your head you spot a bright pink pony looking at you with wide eyes. "Uh, hello." You wave and smile trying to look as friendly as possible. Suddenly she gasps and rushes at you as she plants her hooves on your shoulders. "Hi I'm, Pinkie, you must be new in town because I know everypony in town, but then again you're not a pony are you? But if you're not a pony what are you? Oh since you're new in town you have to have a welcoming party! You like parties don't you?" She says without pausing for a breath, but with the speed she was talking you couldn't understand most of it except for when she asked if you like parties. "Actually I love parties." You smile seeing as she wasn't afraid of you. She looks down at you and smiles with so much happiness it almost hurts to look at. You watch her for a few seconds until she jumps off of you and starts galloping towards the way you came, without so much as a bye. "Well that was strange." Says G. "So was this whole fucking day." "True, true." "So how do you feel about all this, G., cause I'm still not sure what to feel." "Well, all I can say is nothing bad has happened, so I think I'm fine with this." "Alright, I guess we'll roll with this for now." You say and sit in silence waiting for Twilight. You wait for about fifteen more minutes until you finally hear some commotion coming from the bakery. Looking over you see Twilight and a few other ponies coming out slowly. She looks around for a second until she spots you and starts walking over to you with the other ponies following behind her watching you cautiously. "So I'm guessing it went well then?" You ask looking at the group of ponies behind her. "It took a bit of convincing, but they're willing to at least try and meet you, so let me introduce you to the owners of the Sugarcube Corner, Mr. And Mrs. Cake, the spa twins, Aloe and Lotus, Mayor Mare, and the school teacher, Miss Cheerilee." You stand so that you can greet everyone and once again you realize how tall you are compared to them. You stand at about five eleven, whereas they all stand around four feet, but you ignore that and introduce yourself. "Hi I'm Michael, and I'm kinda new here so umm... Nice to meet you all." You hold out your hand to shake with everyone, but the only one to readily accept it is the mayor. "Well hello there, Michael. As Twilight said I'm the mayor, Mayor Mare, and in honor of you not being evil, welcome to Ponyville." "We'll thank you Mayor." You say as you two shake. You turn to the others and hold out your hand for them to shake. "Well I'm Cheerilee and I'm the teacher at Ponyville elementary, so welcome to Ponyville, Michael." You both shake and you turn towards the twins. "Ve are ze owners of ze Ponyville day spa. I am Aloe and," "I am Lotus." The other sister chimes in as they both take your hands and shake. You look over to the last two ponies in the group and put your hand out to them. "I'm Mr. Cake and this is my wife Mrs. Cake and like she already said we're the owners of the Sugarcube Corner." He says as they both take your hand and shake. "Now that you've all been introduced I need to introduce him to the rest of my friends so if you wouldn't mind, could you let everyone else in town know that he's a good pony." They all nod at Twilight, wave and head on to do what she asked. "Thank goodness that's cleared up, now you can meet my friends, and then hopefully we can see if anypony knows anything." "Alright then. By the way Twilight do you happen to know an extremely hyper, pink pony?" "Extremely hyper, and pink? That sounds like my friend Pinkie, why?" "Because I met her while you were in there." "Let me guess, she asked you if you liked parties?" "Yep. So I'm guessing that's normal for her?" "For, Pinkie, it is." "Alright then. So where to next?" "I think we should go see my friend, Rarity, next." "Works for me." You say as you follow the purple unicorn. You still can't shake the feeling that you're being followed. Looking around, all you can see are dark store front windows, but closer inspection reveals a few sets of eyes here and there. "You know Twilight wouldn't it have made more sense if you had me wait for you to alert the town, before I came here unnanounced?" You see her pause for a moment before she turns and gives you an embarrassed smile that you find, once again, adorable. "Ehehe... You're probably right, but it's too late for that right now, so let's not worry about it." "Sure." She turns back and continues to lead you to wherever her friend is. Glancing around you notice that all the stores seem to specialize in only one specific item such as carrots, cucumbers, or eggplant, which strikes you as odd. "Hey, Twilight, how come these shops only sell one thing?" "Well that's because all the ponies sell things that were produced because of their cutie marks." "Their cutie marks?" You ask feeling quite confused. She turns and gestures toward her backside, and you notice the six-pointed star on her backside. "Okay so it's a tattoo, meaning?" "I guess it's like a tramp stamp." G. chuckles. "Shut up, G.! Sorry, please continue." You say as you hear G. laugh to himself. She looks at you with a strange look, but quickly shakes her head. "As I was going to say, a cutie mark displays what a pony's unique trait, or skill is." "So then what does your mean?" "It shows how I'm princess Celestia's star student and how well I do with magic." "Let me guess, she has a sister who's also a princess?" "Yeah, that's princess Luna, but how did you figure that out?" "Just good guess work, but tell me about the princesses." "It'll have to wait a little bit because right now we're at Rarity's shop." Looking ahead you notice a giant carousel themed shop with clothing in the windows. The sign on the store says Carousel Boutique. "So she's a fashion designer then." "Yep, now come on, we still have to see my other friends." "Alright, I'm coming." You say as you follow her inside. "Wouldnt't it be funny if this ended up like that one trip to Las Vegas?" You hear G. ask. "If it were actual women, then yes, but in this case hell no." "What?" Asks Twilight who seems extremely confused, but your seemingly random comment. "Nothing, just talking to, G., so lets meet this friend of yours." You say as you both enter the fashion store, and you see some of the most surprising fashion statements ever. "Holy shit..."
