Somewhere in Equestria...

The darkness was looking in a crystal orb as the ponies and human walked to their village. Of course, he could not be there as his power was to weak to break open the spell surrounding the ruins. But it where no ruins anymore. It was now a large and dark castle. Everywhere where the puddles of dark liquid which bubbled and some strings raise up. The walls of the castle where black. There was no color in whole the castle. Around the new castle, there was a kind of force field. Celestia made this force field when she defeated him last time, for she knew that one day he would escape his lonely prison to once come again to Equestria.

''So that is the new Hero of Ponyville.'' the lord of darkness said with his demon voice while looking into the orb.''Doesn't seem much to me, though. I bet I could crush him in mere seconds.'' As he stopped watching in his orb, the vision of the human and ponies weakened and in mere seconds darkened. He stepped of his throne. It was a black throne with dark red coating on it.

He walked to a very recognizable unicorn. It was Trixie. But while it was Trixie, she was looking different somehow. If someone would look closer at it, he could see she had no color anymore. the only color left, was in here eyes. But this was not her regular color of eyes. Whole her eyes where red. There was no iris anymore. She was just a slave of her new master

''And how is it with the obedient and powerless Trixie?'' the dark figure said mockingly.''I actually need your help with something, because you see, I just don't know what kind of beast I should send to kill that human. What do you think I should send, A rock troll, of a ice troll?'' the Darkness asked her.

''Everything you do is great.'' Trixie said with no emotion in her voice. She just told him what he wanted to hear, because that was the reason he let her life. To tell him what he wanted to hear.

''So you think I should send the rock troll?'' he said without her actually giving him that answer. ''I think you right, and the ice troll would make things to chilly, don't you think?''

He raised his hand, there was a dark glow started around his hand. He let his hand turn circles while in front of him, a vortex in the air appeared. The vortex quickly grew bigger and bigger. Then there where a few purple flashes and the vortex slowly stopped. He had summoned a rock troll with red eyes. You should know that every creature summoned by the dark lord was special. They all where by his army before he was defeated by Celestia. So he could not summon more of this rock trolls. But that did not bother him, as he had hundreds of different creatures.

The troll was big, about 2 times the size of a human. He had a large head with red eyes and smaller rocks to represent eyebrows. His arms where long, about 100 centimeters in the height and 50 centimeter in the width. His legs where around the height of 120 centimeter and the width was around the 60 centimeters. it was a very big thing. If you would see it walking on the street, everybody would start screaming.

''You, rock troll,'' the Darkness said.''go to Ponyville and kill this human called Tommy!''

''Yes my lord.'' the rock troll said with his deep voice. He than walked out of the castle while the Darkness was laughing in his demon voice

Meanwhile in Ponyville...

''So you are saying humans don't have any magical powers?!'' Twilight was asking as she had a notebook and a pencil hovering in the air, and writing down the things I told her. The rest of the main six where walking around me, looking amazed as I told them about my world. Except for Pinkie Pie, who was happily bouncing with us.

''No, we don't have any magical powers, but we do have technology'' I said ''We have things like cars and TV and all kind of machines doing things for us. But without them, I guess no we don't have technology.''

They all looked at me confused.

''What are TV's?'' Rainbow asked

''What are cars?'' Applejack asked

''And what are machines?'' Pinkie asked. ''Can you eat them? Are they just as good as those caramel apples?'' We all looked at her confused.

''What, those are good!'' She added before bouncing and not paying attention to us anymore.

''Does she always make such comments?'' I whispered to Twilight. Twilight started giggling. ''Once in a while, she is the element of laughter after all''. Now it was my turn to look confused.

''Which elements?'' twilight started telling me the story of the elements, how they all represented a element. I remembered seeing something like this in the show. Twilight was the element of magic, Rainbow's was loyalty, Rarity's element was generosity, Fluttershy's element was kindness and Applejack's element was honesty. That explains how she could see that I was not lying. Then I noticed we were at the edge of Ponyville.

''Uhhh, do you think it is clever for me to just walk into the streets? I mean,  am not really a pony, you know.''

Twilight looked at me while thinking. ''I do not think they will do anything except looking at you maybe.''

''Okay, then'' I said before we all walked in the town. I looked around to see all the ponies stopping what they where doing to look at the new strange creature walking into the town, with the most famous ponies in whole of Equestria.

''What is that?''

''Where did it came from''

''Can it speak?''

They all looked at us, some of the ponies where even following us

''Twilight, can we please go inside somewhere, I do not really like to be followed around.'' She smiled before saying something. ''Don't worry, we are almost at my home.'' I walked with the rest of the main six until we reached a giant tree with a door in it. It also had a balcony at the top with the leaves.

''You life in a tree?'' I asked with much disbelief in my voice.

She started giggling: ''Yes, but it is also the local library.'' I looked up at the tree, realizing it was also a library filled me with joy. I always liked reading. Especially if you could learn something from the book. but I never told someone about it. They would certainly think I was even weirder than they thought. And because this was a library meant it had books in it. Lots, and lots of books.

''You can stay with me as long as you will.'' Twilight said. ''I have a spare bedroom over, so I don't mind you being here.'' I then realized the others where already gone. Why would they leave so quickly? I did not really get much time to think about this though, when I realized I was going to live in a library. I then realized I had not thanked Twilight for this.

''Thank you so much for your hospitality, I really appreciate it.'' I quickly said. And I meant it. On earth, people would certainly not invite a stranger in their home, who they just met a half hour before. She looked happy after what I just said.

''No need to thank me for it. That is where friends are for.'' She said to me. I now realized she called me her friend! And though I only met them for 30 minutes, I already see them as friends.

I walked at the door, and because I was so small, I did not need to bend to get in. As I stepped in, my jaw dropped the floor. At least, so it felt. Almost everything in here was made of wood. Then there where long bookcases full with, the obvious, books. Twilight came in after me, as the rest of the group was already gone. She saw how I was looking at the place, being concerned

''Tommy, is something wrong?'' She asked me with a concerned face. I snapped out of my trance looking at her.

''No, there is nothing,'' I said. ''actually, everything is great. I never told someone this, but reading is one of the best things I could think of doing.'' Twilight suddenly looked very happy and exited. I guess she likes to read to, I thought. But before she could say anything a small creature walked from the stairs.

''Hey, Twilight have you caught that creature that was stealing apples from applejack?'' He asked. he immediately felt silence as he saw me standing in the library. I saw the confused look on his face, and decided to introduce myself.

''I think you are referring to me?'' I said while I walked up to the purple baby dragon sticking my arm out to him.''My name is Tommy de Vries, but everybody calls me tom.'' He looked more confused then first while he slowly shacked my hand.

''m-my name is S-Spike'' Spike said scared. ''and why are you here actually and not brought to princess Celestia?'' I had no Idea who that was, but realized she must be the ruler of this land.

''Well, you see Spike, it turned out I was not the one who was stealing apples from Applejack as I have only been here for around 35 minutes and the apple thief was busy for a few weeks.'' I then noticed he looked like a lizard or something. ''But what are you actually?'' I asked

''I can ask the same thing to you.''

''Yes, but I asked it before you!'' I stated

''Well, I want to know who you are first!'' Spike yelled

'''But I want to know what you are!'' I said to him. At this point our faces were only a few centimeters away as we were fighting about who would say what they were. Could you have a more stupider argument? Before Spike could say anything ells, I saw a light flash and Spike suddenly stood at the other side of the room. Only a moment later, another light flash could be seen an I stood at the other side of the room where Spike was. I realized Twilight used a spell to teleport us to different sides of the room

''NO FIGHTING!!'' She yelled at us both. ''Spike, he is a human. Tommy, Spike is a dragon. Now you know what you are.''

''I knew who you were before you knew who what I was. So I win!'' Spike yelled as he still tried to win the argument. I rolled my eyes at this argument. Then I noticed he was quite small for a dragon.

''But if you are a dragon, then why are you not so big?'' I asked him

''Well, you see'' Twilight started ''Spike is still a baby dragon, so he is not so big as other dragons.''

''Okay, that explains things.'' I said. ''So, can you tell me anything about you're universe?''

I saw Twilight thinking of anything before she spoke. '' I think you already know that unicorns can use magic,'' She said while she was in thoughts. ''You know who the rest is, so i guess no.'' She said while smiling to me. ''But if I where you, I would not get on the streets right now. I don't know how others would react.'' While she said this I saw her expression change from happy to concerned. But why would she be concerned? Does she keep anything behind?

''Twilight, I get the idea you are not telling me something.'' I said to her. She looked at me with shock

''N-no I am t-telling you everything!'' I noticed she was stuttered. I decided not to push in this anymore. If she didn't want to tell me something, she had all the right to it. I then decided to walk to one of the bookshelves. before I took one of the books out of the shelf I decided to ask before I did anything that could let me get kicked out of her house.

''Say, twilight do you mind if I read some of these books?'' I asked her.

She looked at me, probably happy that I dropped the topic of before. ''No, you can read everything that is in here. I don't mind IF you are careful about the books.'' I smiled before I responded.

''Don't worry, I will treat your books with respect''

I took one book out of the shelf with the title '' The monsters of Equestria'' This seemed like a nice one. I sat down at the floor as I saw Spike dusting of a bookshelf. I flipped to the first page to start reading. Lucky for me, this was written in modern English. Twilight told me that original Equestria had another language. That changed when people decided that that language was to difficult. So they made a new language. Apparently this language was English. Chapter one: the Manticore.

I was at chapter tree when a little purple ball hit me in the stomach.

''AUWW'' I looked down to see that spike landed on me. Then I noticed the ladder next to me. He must have fallen of, I thought. Spike quickly jumped of me.

''I am so sorry for that.''

''Don't worry. I can take a punch.'' I said while smiling. I then looked at my watch. It was around 4 P.M. I got up and putted the book back in the shelf. Then I noticed twilight was walking to the door of the library.

''Are you coming, Tom?'' she asked. I quickly stood up and started walking up to her.

''Where are we going?'' I asked her. She turned her head to me before speaking.

''We are going to eat, of course. What else would we do?'' This seems odd. It is only 4 P.M why would we need to get out of the house to eat something? But I did not really think about it and walked with her out of the house. As we where walking, I noticed there where almost no ponies on the streets. Of course I saw a few, but not as many as when I first came into the village. Then I saw the most remarkable thing in my life. I saw a house all made of candy. It was a enormous gingerbread made house, with on top two cupcakes with tree candles. It all seemed to be out of some kind of fairy tale, made up by some child.

I walked to the door opening it and got inside. Twilight quickly followed and closed the door. It was really dark inside. You could not see a thing.

''Where is the light switch?'' i said annoyed. ''Ah, found it!'' I quickly pressed on the switch to let light come into the darkness. When I did it, i got the greatest surprise in my life

SURPRISE!!

I screamed as A lot of ponies looked at me. Of my shock, I tripped over my own legs and fell to the ground. I quickly heard people, or ponies, laughing. I looked up to see a pink hoof to help me get up of the ground. I gladly took the hoof and got on my feet again. Then I saw the pony who helped me get up. It was no other than Pinkie Pie.

''Would you please never scare me like that?'' I asked while I was laughing. I then noticed the other ponies All of the main six where there and a lot of other ponies I did not see before.

''What do you think about you're party?'' Pinkie yelled. ''We all helped to get this party so early. Everypony helped. OOH, I have not introduced you to everypony! Pinkie pie quickly introduced me to all the ponies in the room. It happened so fast I could not hear everything. When we were done with the introducing Twilight started speaking

''That was also the thing I did not tell you,'' twilight started speaking. ''so what do you think about it.

I looked around to see them all smile. I never felt so good in my life. Nobody had ever did something like this for me. Not even my parents. These ponies, they are all so nice for me. I have only been here a few hours and they are already the best friend I had. One tear of joy was rolling over my eyes. The ponies smiles started to fade.

''He doesn't like it.'' Pinkie said. ''I know I shouldn't have thrown this party. Pinkie was clearly sad, as where the other ponies. I quickly wiped the tear away.

''I was not crying because I did not like it, I was crying because this is the nicest thing someone has ever done for me. I smiled at Pinkie Pie, who immediately was happy again.

''Then lets get partying!'' Pinkie screamed. Quickly after everypony was dancing. I wanted to dance with them, but then I realized I was quite hungry. I walked to the table with food on it an took a slice of cake. I took a fork and was about to eat my first bite when something flew through the walls. I saw a fist coming for me, and it hit me hard in my stomach, sending me flying through the wall into the village.

Everypony looked shocked at what just happened. There in the middle of the town, with me meters away from it stood a huge rock thing. It seemed to had it for me. As I was about to stand up, I felt another fist, this time to my head sending me flying even faster. I then came to stop once I hit a statue of some kind. I then felt me being lifted up into the air to look into the eyes of the rock troll. he held me up with his left hand.

''My master wants you dead, and I shall carry on his wish.'' he said before stomping me into the ground. He was about to slam me again, but stopped as he hear somepony calling. He turned his head to see rainbow Dash flying in top speed at him. He merely raised his hand and knocked rainbow into a building behind him. He then turned his attention back to me.

''When I am done with you, I am going to kill all of your friends. I will make them suffer for leaning you a hoof.'' I looked at him with anger rising inside of me.

''And it will all be you're fault they died!'' He said before hitting me repeatedly in the head. Then he decided to stop doing it. ''No,'' he said as he looked at me ''i will kill them in front of you. And then I will kill you.'' He ran to the pony who was closest to him and took her in his hands. I saw to my shock it was Twilight he was holding. All the other ponies where screaming as he took her. Twilight tried to use her magic to transport, but it did not work for some reason. It seemed all her magic was pulled out by the rock troll.

Anger was all in my body at the moment. If he wanted to kill me, okay, but not my friends. Not my only friends who where there for me when I needed them. Who where the nicest persons I ever met. No, NO NOT THEM! As my anger was rising I felt more and more energy coming into my body. Then out of nowhere my body started to make bright blue flashes. Then I opened my eyes. There where no things in it than blue. I shot a blue light beam out of my hand. It hit the troll on the back, while he dropped twilight. He quickly turned around to see me floating above the ground.

I started hovering above the ground while a blue aura was around me.

''You can murder me, take away everything I care about, but you do ot, and I repeat, you do NOT hurt my friends!''

I quickly flew to the occupied troll and smashed him in the head. When I hit him a big blue thunderbolt could be seen coming from my hand, and slamming him into the head. He flew away by my slam while I was hitting him every time he was about to fall into the ground. With every hit, blue flashes could be seen. I then kicked him into the air after flying after him. Then with all my force inside me, I slammed him downstairs to the ground. There was lightning everywhere as that last slam hit him. He flew at great speed at the earth, to make a huge smack to the ground.

There was nothing over. Just a little grind. I flew downstairs losing my anger, and so my power, before falling downstairs. Lucky for me, I got caught by a certain cytan pegasus. As we landed, all the main six where around me.

''Are you okay?'' Twilight asked.

I looked up to answer: ''I feel better than ever'' but instead I passes out
