Chapters The Flame Boy Falls into Equestria
Chapter 2-Where Am I?
When I reached my room, I opened the door, walked in, and slammed the door shut behind me. I just walked and then jumped into my bed. I was furious at the stupidity of my family. I wanted to release my anger so badly, but I refused to let my anger control me. I remembered as a brony, I needed to 'Love and Tolerate'. I was so angry, and so sleepy.
I decided to take a nap and cool my head. I don't normally fall asleep angry, but today I made an exception. I drifted off and began to snore. I dreamed of going to Equestria and staying there. Going to a place were I could be myself and not be judged. I dreamed of being in my perfect place. I wanted my dream to never end, but it did weirdly. I wake up, still feeling a bit sleepy. When I opened my eyes, I turned on my side and rolled onto my back, or I should have. I fell off my bed a could feel myself still falling. I began to freak the heck out as I fell. I was scared of heights, so I closed my eyes and waited for the feeling to end. I felt a sharp sting on my back and I sucked my teeth as anyone in pain would. I was in pure agony, it felt like I hit a rock or something, and dead on my back doesn't help it.
"Ow ow ow! My back, what the heck happened?!" I asked, pained. I slowly opened my eyes and was shocked at the sight that met. I was in the middle of an open grassy field. My body wouldn't let me do anything but drop my jaw. Just when I thought it couldn't get any weirder, I heard a strange voice behind me.
"Howdy there stranger. How y'all doin'?" It said. I jumped at the voice and spun around. I met an orange pony with blond hair and a stetson. I remembered her as Applejack from my favorite My Little Pony cartoon. I couldn't decide to freak out by fanboying over her or the fact that she was in arm's distance away from me.
"Uh...are you Applejack?" I asked, too freaked out to even react. She tilted her head and looked at my curiously.
"How did you know my name?" She asked.
"Not important. If you're here, then your friends are close by right?" I said. I started to switch from pure confusion to complete eagerness. Applejack nodded her head.
"You're right. Twi, Rarity and Pinkie are right behind me." She started. A pink mane stuck out behind Applejack, I know Pinkie Pie was right there, and Twilight looked up from behind and so did Rarity.
"Wait. That's only four. Where's Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy?" I asked. I heard a muffled sound from underneath me.
"Um...excuse me Mr. Whatever you are. You're sitting on Rainbow Dash." I heard a shy voice behind me say. I knew all too well that it was Fluttershy. I quickly turned and met the yellow mare face to face.
"You mean I'm sitting on Rainbow Dash, right now?" I asked. Fluttershy nodded. I blushed red and jumped up. Rainbow Dash gasped for air. I covered my face from embarrassment.
"It's about time! I thought I was gonna die! What the heck is wrong with you?!" Rainbow Dash yelled at me. She carried a hint of annoyance in her anger. I was not in the best of moods at the time. I switched from anger to pain to confusion to joy, now to sadness. I didn't say anything, I just fell on my butt and broke out in tears. I felt like nothing was going to get better for me ever again.
I felt a hoof on my shoulder. I looked up through my tear-filled eyes and saw Pinkie Pie. She started petting my back.
"Aww, don't cry. It'll be okay. I don't like to see my friends cry." Pinkie Pie said smiled.
"Way to go Dash. You made 'em cry. Whatcha gon do nah?" Applejack said, with a slightly defensive tone. Rainbow Dash looked at me crying. Twilight and Pinkie were petting my back. Rainbow looked a bit upset at my crying. She walks over to me. I look up and wipe my eyes.
"Hey kid, I'm sorry. I just felt suffocated. You accept my apology?" She said.
"I-it's okay. I've just been through alot. It's not your fault." I said, feeling alittle better. Everyone...or everypony I should say, surrounded me and studied my body. Rarity was the pony to ask the hundred dollar question.
"What are you?" She asked. My eyes went wide, I expected that question to be asked earlier.
"Well if you want to know. I'm a human." I answered. The girls all except Rainbow Dash scrunched their muzzles.
"I know what those are. I read about them in 'Daring Do and the Mystery Realm of Humans!'" Dash said, excitedly. I nodded confirming that there was a realm of humans.
"Oh! So you're from another world?! That's so cool! I knew you weren't a pony because you weren't anypony I've seen before!" Pinkie Pie said, now excited by the news.
"So if you're a human, then you must of come from another world. Where are you from?" Twilight asked. I shrugged my shoulders answered as easy as possible.
"I'm from earth. But none of you should be real." All of them put an offended look on their face. I winced at what I said. I tried to make up a recovery for my stupid response. "I-I-I-I mean in my world. In my world, you're all from my favorite cartoon. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." The offense had subsided and a wave of relief washed over me.
"So what problems have ya been havin'?" Applejack asked. I turned to the farm pony and said.
"Family rejection. Being a brony doesn't really help." They all looked at me confused, again.
"What's a brony?" Fluttershy asked. I realized that I was from different world.
"Remember when the ponynet connected with the internet?" Rarity asked. Rainbow Dash remembered what Rarity was saying.
"Oh yeah! Then it found a group of young people that are fans of us. Some of them pretty cool." I smiled at the fact that I didn't have to explain. I thought of something that didn't hit me til just then.
"So no one is going to ask my name?" I said, teasingly. They all gasped and surrounded me remembering they forgot to.
"Oh, right! Sorry. So what is your name?" Twilight asked. I didn't want to tell them my real name, it was way too embarrassing. I decided to tell them my nickname.
"Just call me 'Flame Boy'." I said puffing my chest out a bit.
"A bit braggy, aren't you?" Applejack asked. She was teasing me I knew it. I shrugged and smiled. I finally got to my feet and brushed myself off.
"We should go to the library. Maybe you could learn about humans more if we go." I suggested. Twilight liked the idea so well, she practically pushed me from my standing still toward the library. Everyone else followed. I knew this would be not just fun, but exciting.

Chapter%i%- What Happened?!
Chapter3- What Happened?!
As I was still being pushed toward the library, I was starting to feel uncomfortable. Twilight's horn constantly poking into my butt hurt, a lot. I wanted to move up, but every time I did Twilight would speed up and poke me in the butt harder.
"Today isn't going to be easy to be easy to forget." I thought to myself. I wanted to enjoy myself so much, I really did. But in my condition, who would? I fell into my dream land, met my favorite cartoon characters and now I'm being poked in the butt a million times a second. That's not the best way to spend what feel real, but logic is a dream.
"Hey Twilight. Are we there yet? I'm gettin' kinda bored over here." Rainbow Dash said.
"C'mon Rainbow. It's not that far away. We're almost there." Twilight responded. I looked up ahead, Twilight was right. The library was about five feet away. I ran up ahead of Twilight and opened the door. My gentlemanly nature told me to do so.
"Oh. Thank you." Twilight said.
"Thank you, darling." Rarity said, winking at me. I blushed a bit.
"Thank ya kindly." AJ said, bumping my arm. I chuckled.
"O-oh! Th-thank you." Fluttershy said. I pet her head, assuring her she was adorably shy.
"Hey, thanks!" Rainbow Dash said. I puffed air out at her to tease her. She weakly smiled and bumped my chest.
"Thank you! You're so nice!" Pinkie Pie said, hug tackling me to the ground.
"He-hey! Stop it! It's no problem. My mom and dad raised me like that." I said, being rubbed on by Pinkie Pie. I moved Pinkie off of me and got to my feet.
"So, now that we're here what happens next?" I asked. I twinkle appeared in Twilight's eye. I knew from experience that even for a cartoon pony, that can't mean something good. Twilight teleported all her lab equipment up to the main floor. She then ran all around and the next thing I knew I was strapped into a metal chair and had that weird brain thing Pinkie had on her head from "Feeling Pinkie Keen."
"I need to analyse how you can to Equestria and how it will affect your human body." Twilight said. She was moving everywhere at once. It was almost like Pinkie Pie's powers very sucked right into her.
"Twilight? Twilight! Twilight what's going on?" Spike said, running down the stairs.
"Spike? Spike what are you doing up?" Twilight asked.
"It's 12:00 PM." Spike said. He looked up at me. "Who...or what is that?"
"Spike, be nice!" Pinkie Pie yelled. "This is our new friend Flame Boy. He's a human."
"Hiya." I said weakly waving. The baby dragon scratched his head.
"A human? Is there a book about those?" Spike asked. I put a confused look on my face. I wanted to do something that I thought would be offensive, but I asked it anyway.
"Hey Spike.Is it okay if I pet you?" Spike looked at me.
"Umm...okay." He answered, unsure. I lowered my hand and pressed my skin against the scales. I liked the smooth texture against my fingers, the rough end of each scale added to the amazing feel. Spike smirked, my petting was stroking his ego.
Twilight rolled her eyes. She knew if I liked this, Spike would be bragging for a week. She was so wrong. Spike's eyes gazed wide open at me, his scales turned from light purple to pale white. He started wobbling and then fell to the floor. I was knelt down in horror. What just happened? Did I do this? Will he be okay?
"W-w-what j-j-j-just happened?" I asked shaking. I felt Spike's forehead. He felt warm, actually burning hot. His purple scales added a slight red tint. His body began to slightly twitch, as if he was having a seizure. Fluttershy and Twilight were mortified. I was just kneeling there. Guilt,fear and dread were swimming all around my mind. I picked up the lifeless baby dragon, and begin to cry.
"Spike. I...I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." I said. I was tearing up at the seems. You feel around Spike's chest and his face. The slight breath and slow heartbeat gives you a sliver of hope. "He's alive. Just barely, but Spike's alive!" My sad tears morphed into tears of joy. "He's ok?" Twilight asked. "No. But he can be. We need to get medical help. Who can we ask?" I said. I refused to make a single movement. "Zecora! Zecora can help!" Rarity said. I didn't say another word. I just stood up and ran out the door.
"Oh jeez, at least wait for us to lead you there!" Rainbow called out. Her sentence fell upon deaf ears. I didn't care what was said or done. I only cared about Spike getting better. It was my fault, somehow, it was my fault. Shortly after darting off like a mad bullet, I found myself frozen in terror outside the everfree forest. I wanted to go in, but my legs would not move. I turned and noticed it wasn't just fear holding me back. Twilight was holding me in place using her magic.
"What are you doing?! Back off!" I yelled. "We're not about to let you and Spike get killed out there! You don't even know where Zecora lives." Twilight argued. "Hoo whee! He's certainly got a fiery heart." Applejack said. I just stared daggers at all the girls. Not even a flinch from any of them. Well, with Pinkie Pie it's hard to tell. And Fluttershy flinches at everything. I stopped my starring and stopped moving. Twilight let me go.
"Please, I need to do this." I said. I carried a tone of sorrow and defeat in my voice. The girls looked at my eyes. Both carried a feeling of guilt, pain, regret and sorrow. "Okay then, let's all go!" I heard. I looked up and saw that everybody....or should I say everypony was looking a Pinkie Pie. I glimpse of hope shune on me. "Okay, let's go." Twilight said. My glimpse of hope grew brighter. "Yeah!" The others cried. My crack of light in the dark, cloudy storm became a shining rainbow.
"Okay, let's go! Spike needs us!" I yelled, darting off. Everypony behind, except for Pinkie Pie, groaned and dashed after me. After running non-stopped for a good five minutes, I was held in place before a field of a familiar plants. I let the girls catch up to me and just stood staring down.
"What's wrong?" Rainbow asked. I didn't respond. I just walked back, placed Spike on Twilight's back and ran full force ahead. The girls all looked in fear.
"Are yah crazy?! That's Poison Joke! Who knows what it'll do to you!" Applejack yelled. Again her words fell upon deaf ears. I didn't care, I needed to brave through this. As the first group of flowers touched th exposed flesh between me pants and my socks, a felling of anxiety jolted up my spine.

Chapter %i%-Will You Just let It Go?!
Chapter 1-Will You Just let It Go?!
Today, today is going to be the best day of my life! The first day of summer break. I'm planning on using most of my time working on my group channel with my friends. I would finally finish helping with the animation, so we can get the group video project done. If I'm lucky, I'll get to go to bronycon. I've always wanted to go there, and if I can finish this animation I will have a chance to go. I got off the school bus and ran home. I didn't run far because I run fast. I even think that if I raced Rainbow Dash, I would have won.When I got home, my family was waiting for me. I knew something was up, but what was it?
"Hey mom, hey dad. What's going on?" I asked. My dad shook his head as my brother rose from the couch.
"Busted bro." He said. I looked at him confused.
"What do you mean?" I asked. I never really did anything to get myself in trouble.
"You're busted you brony freak." My other brother said at my hips. He's not very tall so he can't be seen, unless you look down. I was offended. I told my brothers I was a brony and they didn't really react they way I expected. I never gave it a second thought. I told them, and that was that.
"Son. I'm going to ask you this? Are you gay?" My dad asked. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs at that question. I would never be gay. I don't hate gays, but I would never be gay.
"No dad. I'm not gay." I answered as calm as I could. I was breathing slowly to keep cool.
"Then why do you watch a freakin' little girls show?!" My brother asked, screaming. I grabbed his shirt and pulled him up to my face.
"Be careful honey." My mom said, worried for my brother. I ignored my mom, I was too angry. I was looking my brother in his eyes. I was giving him my version of Fluttershy's 'The Stare.'
"I told you to keep that my secret, why did you tell mom and dad?" I asked, breathy. He winced at my breath in his face, he doesn't like people getting in his face.
"It's because your a freakin' pony-lover." He stated, shakily. I wanted to beat my brother up so badly. He knew I was sensitive about my interests, and he still chose to listen to our middle brother. I dropped him, he rubbed his but from the pain if the fall.
"You all need a serious reality check. None of you could be my family." I said, if my face could change colors it would be red. I stormed upstairs to my room. When my door closed, my family sighed.
"Whew, he's gone. The coast is clear." My brothers said.
"Let's get to work." My dad said.
