Chapter 1 (2/2)

That night was the most terrifying event since the whole teleportation thing. I woke up, probably a half an hour later, to see a jumble of pink fluff towering over me. I had about three seconds to scream before I had a piece of cake shoved into my mouth to keep me quiet. I looked up at what seemed to be a pink horse, only it was much smaller. It had big blue eyes, big fluffy pink hair, and pink fur all over its body. Have you ever seen a horse smile? This one had a smile going from ear to ear. It was disturbing, considering how long a horse's face is.

"Hush! We need to be quiet or Twilight will find us." She whispered conspiratorially. I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact a horse came in my room, woke me up, shoved cake into my face, and was talking when she took a bowl of pudding out of a book and dunked it on my head. It dried up immediately, and I couldn't breathe. I was about to pass out when the pink pony started eating chunks out of the chocolate mask, freeing me to the cool embrace of oxygen. I gasped for air as she went to hide in a dark corner of wherever we were. Once I had caught my breath, I looked around, and found that in less than ten seconds, she had taken me somewhere completely remote to where I previously was. We were in what looked like a tree house, there were trees as far as I could see out the window, so I knew I was going to have to count on the pony to lead me away from here.

"Where the fuck have you taken me?” I asked, more than a little unnerved.

"Fuck? I read that word one time. it was in this story called Pinkie Pie Learns a New Word."

"Um... I really don't know what kind of stories you have here." Suddenly, the entire room lit up and confetti shot out of every direction and the pink pony came up to me, wearing a silly balloon hat and pushing a tray cart in front of her with her hooves. I looked at the cake, and in the frosting it was written, Welcome to Equestria!.

I should use this opportunity to describe just exactly how she looked. She was, as previously mentioned, pink. She had a darker shade of pink for her hair, which I believe is called a mane. Her tail was she same shade, and they were both bunched up in a fluffy display of adorableness. She had these big blue SpongeBob eyes, and she had this ridiculously large smile plastered on her face.

"So... what is-"

"Welcome welcome welcome! I say welcome to you! Welcome welcome welcome I say how do you do? Welcome welcome welcome, I say hip hip hooray! Welcome welcome to Equestria today!" She sang some welcome song, and more confetti shot out all around me.

"What on earth was that?"

"It was my welcome song to welcome you to Equestria. My hooves were moist, that is how I knew somepony new was here!" What the fuck?

"How does that tell you that there is a person here?" I asked, uncertain.

"Hey, eat some cake!" She grabbed a chunk of cake and shoved it in my mouth. Have you ever had a horse shove their hoof in your mouth? Should hurt right? Not this time, no. Her hoof was fleshy and squishy.

To be honest, it really wasn't that bad at all. It tasted pretty good. A little sweet for my tastes, I've always been into salty food, but whatever. I couldn't cough it out, so I decided to try and chew and swallow it.

"Um... thanks for the cake?"

"Oh you're welcome, I just wanted to say hello to you before I have to go, you and I won't be able to see each other for a few weeks, so I have to welcome you now. Now, I need get to get you back to Twilight's place. Follow me!" She immediately walked out the door of the tree house, and somehow climbed down a ladder.

"Come on, we gotta get you home before somepony realizes you're gone." I followed her down, looking around and seeing many apple trees in all directions.

"Where exactly are we?" I asked. Thinking back to it, I was acting way too chill for someone who had just been abducted from the prison they were being held in after being abducted from their home. Maybe Twilight had me on some shit.

"We are in Sweet Apple Acres, owned by my friend Applejack and her family. They make all sorts of apple goods for Ponyville and traders that come in from all around Equestria. You should try their pies, they're the best."

"And who are you?"

"You can call me Pinkie Pie!" Oh God, I thought Twilight Sparkle was a awful name. "I work at a bakery with Mister and Missus Cake. They're like my family here in Ponyville. Some bronies think I live with them, but I actually live in my own hut, like everypony else." I was lapping up any information I could get from this horse. If I was stuck here, I would want to know everything I can. She led me through the forest, and I was soon able to see a visible end to the trees. When we came out, we were standing next to a white fence that extended down the side of a dirt road leading around side of the forest of trees. The road going the other direction went into what looked like a town.

"I take it were going to that small village?" I asked, pointing to the place with wooden buildings and straw roofs

"Yup! We gotta sneak through though, Octavia likes to walk around at night and if she sees you the entire town will hear about it."

"Gotchya." And so Pinkie and I ran up to Ponyville while constantly scanning the area for any ponies walking around.

"So, tell me about Twilight Sparkle." I wanted to gather as much information about my captor as I could, should I end up having to eradicate her. I always had a systematic mind, I had long ago made a set of rules for me, rules by which I would always operate, rules I would use to govern my thoughts. I called these rules Logic. I don't want to reiterate them here. I have long ago bound myself to them, but they are cruel rules, rules that force me to hurt the minds of others sometimes. I wish I didn't have to, I always feel like I hurt myself when I hurt others, but sometimes these things need to be done, and I just have to accept the burden of guilt.

"Oh, Twilight is super duper friendly. She likes to read and she is the student of princess Celestia, the most powerful pony in Equestria. Oh fuck, if I make one wrong move this pony can probably sentence me to death.

"So tell me, does she have any authority?" The pink pony stopped, and turned to face me.

"These are some weird questions, why are you asking them?" Oh fuck, she isn't as ditzy as I thought.

"Oh no reason, it is just that I'm living with her and I was wondering about her. These aren't questions that you usually ask the person you are wondering about, so I figured I'd ask you, since you seem to be so friendly with her." I was grasping at straws. I really had no evidence that they were friends at all, but it seems my fast thinking saved me some suspicion.

"Oh no need to feel embarrassed! I am friends with everypony in town, and Twilight and I are super special best friends!" No dirty thoughts! No dirty thoughts! “Oh come on, we all have them.” She said. My subconscious prevented me from acknowledging that statement in an attempt to preserve my sanity.

"Well I'm glad to hear that." I said, calming down, "Maybe we will end up being super good friends one day." Yeah, if I knew where that would bring me, I would've run right out of that tree house the minute the pudding was gone.

"Don't worry, I know you and I will be the best of super good friends, I read ahead."

"You read ahead of what?"

"I know, I shouldn’t do that, it spoils the story, but I am always just so curious what’s going to happen next. Don't worry though; I won’t give you any spoilers." That was just Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie, like usual.

No more words were spoken during our walk through Ponyville. I was paying close attention to the buildings around us. They seemed like something out of the medieval era, but there was something off about it. I don't believe that they knew how to make garrison buildings back then, that was a more modern type of building structure.

I had spent a year or so in sixth grade looking over different types of architecture, I had a temporary interest in it. The first thing I studied was the history of how innovative ideas for new structures had come up, and how they were applied. I recalled that the idea of multi-story wooden structures were of a more modern kind. That’s interesting; this society holds kinds of technology from different human eras. This bears further investigation. I didn't know why I was brought here, but if this land was enough like Earth, I may be able to adapt without too much trouble..

We arrived at our destination. No wonder there were rings on the floor. I thought as I approached the door. I opened it and held it so for Pinkie to enter.

"Ladies first."

"Oh I'm not coming inside; I need to get ready for my trip."

"Oh, okay then. Goodbye, Pinkie Pie." And so she walked away. I entered the room that had been given to me, and wearily set to going to sleep. This is going to be an interesting life. That was the last thing I recall going through my mind before wistfully falling asleep.
