A Terrarian's tale: Lost in Wonderland
The gate opens
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe yellow pegasus screamed, most of the others scrambled all over each other, trying to reassure one another, Marcus just stood there and watched the commotion. Suddenly the Rainbow pegasus flew right into his face, " Hey PAL you wanna die? Cause if you make my friend cry, you are ASKING to die!"
Marcus backed up, the exact reaction he expected, but now he saw that the Purple alicorn was slowly getting things under control, while the western pony was yelling at Rainbow. After they were all quieted down, the purple pony approached, " Pardon my friends, they have never seen something like you before." Marcus noticed the wings on her back, oh boy another princess. " But If I may ask, what are you doing here? The portal shouldn't be open for another twenty five moons."
Marcus didn't understand, "Um what? I'm not a human, I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Surely you are a human, what else could you be?" Twilight said examining him.
"Um i'm a Terrarian," Marcus stated without thinking,"I guess humans look like us."
"What's a ter-rawr-ean?" Twilight asked. "Are they from earth?"
"A Terrarian is what I am, and my home world is Terraria," Marcus felt like he was in a movie or something, what would it be called? E.T.?
"So why are you here? You lookin to take over Equestria!? The rainbow pony asked, " Cause you ain't getting past me buddy!"
The orange pony pulled the rainbow one's tail, "Calm down there Rainbow, ah don't think this fella is lookin to hurt nopony," she said looking at Marcus questionably.
"Hmm? Oh no, I just want to protect your world from the monsters of my world," Marcus said, reliving the battle with the Eye of Chtulu.
"Monster's? Like Zombie ponies?" He had not noticed Spike standing in the back.
"Don't be ridiculous Spike, Zombie ponies don't exist." Twilight stated in a smug fashion.
"Actually, some of the Zombies I faced were ponies," Marcus backed the little dragon up, "But there are more than just that."
"Seriously? How am I supposed to believe that?" The blue pegasus said, obviously not believing, " How do we know you are not really one of Discord's tricks? Hmm?"
=================================================
" Disco-what? Never heard of it, is it a disease?" Pinkie asked, she had never heard of it.
"Discord, he is the master of chaos," Princess Luna said with a somewhat grim look.
"Never heard of him," Pinkie looked at the corner of her vision.
Pinkie join green team so I can find you.
"What is this?" Princess Luna asked, she began to freak out, "What are we seeing?
"What you can see it too?" Pinkie asked, she joined green team.
" Yes, and an odd group of things have appeared in our vision as well," The Princess began to freak out, " What be this? Inventory!?"
"Oh, you must be changing too!" Pinkie bubbled gleefully, "How cool!"
"What? What is she changing into?" Celestia worried, "Is It something evil?"
"No, she is turning into a Terrarian," Pinkie answered, she liked new friends," But I don't understand how."
"Ok whew, the 'inventory' has ceased." The princess said, not so worried, she looked around, others were staring, but she was fixated on a certain unicorn stallion, sitting in the back.
"Will she no longer be my sister?" Celestia asked, glancing at her sister shortly.
"No, at least I don't think," Pinkie hoped she was right, "But I can't be sure."
Princess Luna got up and started walking toward the back, both Pinkie and Celestia looked at each other, then watched Luna go. " Sister where are you going," Celestia asked, the Lunar Princess didn't answer, she just kept walking toward the stallion. The stallion had dark gray fur, a black mane, and was looking down with his brown eyes, writing on what The Princess thought was a journal.
"Why hello Artist," The Princess smiled, watching the stallion cease writing and look up, wide eyed.
"Um hello princess," Artist said, "How can i help you?"
"Thou know what we are here for," The Princess leaned in closer, glaring at the poor stallion.
Artist quickly lifted his pencil and scribbled something in his book, then there was a sudden burst as the entrance door swung open, Marcus walked in. Behind him were six mares, all chatting and laughing happily. The Princess of the moon yelped and ducked under the table, Marcus only stared at her, wondering what was wrong, then he remembered what had happened last time.
"Princess are you ok?" Marcus asked as he bent down and looked at her, she was shaking.
"Please don't hurt us, we did not know you cared for lady Pinkie," Princess Luna squeaked.
"What? What happened to Pi-"
"And Then I said, Oatmeal? Are you Crazy!?" both Pinkie and Pinkie Pie stopped and looked at each other, then they burst out laughing.
"Hi I'm Pinkie Pie, you must be new," Pinkie Pie felt her ears twitch, then she stopped and gasped, " HEY YOUR ME!!!!!"
"You must be Pinkie pie," Pinkie said, " how are ya?"
"GREAT, cause I just met me!"
Marcus turned his head back to the Princess, "So, care to explain what happened to Pinkie?" The Princess whimpered and shook her head, still shaking. "Don't worry, i'm not mad at you, I just want to know," Marcus scooted back, giving the Princess more space to breath.
"O-oh ok, well please don't be angry by the end of this," Princess Luna began to tell him her encounter and what happened, meanwhile both Pinkies were talking about parties while Twilight talked with her mentor.
After the story the night Princess told him she lowered her head, "We don't feel so good."
"It's ok, i'm not mad," Marcus noticed that she did look a little sick, " Are you ok?"
"We will be going, we feel that rest is needed," Princess Luna got up and ran out the door, without telling anyone where she was headed. Marcus got up and brushed himself off, he noticed a unicorn stallion scribbling madly in his little book.
"Hey pal are you alright?" he asked the stallion, who looked up and nodded in response.
"Ok then," Marcus turned and walked over to the others, he asked Celestia what was up with her sister, she did not know.
After they had finished talking they all began to walk back to Twilight's house, only the two Pinkies were still chatting.
Marcus remembered something he forgot to ask, "Celestia, do you know if there are anymore people like me here?"
"I do not believe there are, why do you ask?" Celestia calmly said.
"I know you know Princess," Marcus saw a clear lie in her last statement, "Where is he?"
"Who? I'm afraid I don't understand," Celestia clearly knew what he was talking about.
" You better not, or you will be seeing why your sister was scared of me," Marcus threatened, he saw that all the others were staring at them, " Come on Pinkie, we have things to do."
"Bye Pinkie," Pinkie said, waving to her pony friends.
"Bye Pinkie," Pinkie Pie waved back, still smiling.
"Ok we need nicknames for you two, this is way too confusing," Rainbow said poking Pinkie Pie.
Once Marcus and Pinkie got back to their home, Marcus was getting the necessary stuff to place some defense around the house, Pinkie went upstairs to put some items she got away, she yelped when she entered the room.
"WHAT! What happened!? Marcus rushed up the stairs, Pinkie pointed to the bed, on it lay a person. "Oh boy."
===================================================
In the deepest, darkest, dungeon under Canterlot, there was a man all bound in chains, he had lost all reason to live, but was forced to. He opened his eyes and checked a new message he saw pop up.
The gates of Hell are open at last, your world will fall.
The man picked his head up, with an evil grin, "Finally," He broke out in maniac laughter, chains were being pulled right out of the wall, he was breaking out of his prison.
