Philipeville, Belgium.
It's pretty fun being a detective! Arresting bad guys, going out with friends, meeting people, etc—Well, at least is how he'd like it to be.
Nybor had lost his parents when he was seven and immediately he moved to an orphanage. In high school, he graduated with his fourteen—when he was eleven he already had the advanced knowledge 'cause of his reading hobbie—so he kinda skipped the basic school.
After he graduated from high school, he studied on his own and in his fifteen he became a detective.
When he was sixteen years old he studied self-defense and a few months later, he went down a case of two serial killers residing in Texas, USA. These serial killers were the ones who murdered his parents, so he took the case on his own.
Counting on no one—but himself—after the shooting classes, he did it. The two got arrested and both got life imprisonment as sentence in a max security prison. One year later he left police with no apparent reason and became an anonymous detective.
Now, Nybor is seventeen, living on his own and solving cases from all around the world. Even rich and with his own house, his life was boring. None of the mysteries got him motivated or excited since the serial killer one, what makes him angry.
Nybor POV
You needed to relax. These cases that came to you today were too easy on solving and these dumb detectives couldn't solve any case on their own. They always came to you saying that it was a non-ending maze, when they were just too lazy to think. Walking your way to the fridge, you fetch an apple and start biting it, with anger.
Stupid assholes. Can't they solve this with their eyes closed?
Apples. They always make your thoughts get back to their respective places—also, calm you down. You're lucky that you bought some last night.
Sitting on the bed, the sky is clear and the sun is not super-dooper hot as last month. Today was a perfect day for relaxing and you were not wasting it. You go to your closet, get your swimming short and your towel and lead your way to the swimming pool. You place the towel on your chair and jump on the pool, screaming, "WEE–HOO!!!" and getting almost half of the water—figuratively speaking—out of the pool. You dive as long as you can waiting to reach the bottom of it, but as long as you keep diving, you can't reach it. Hm...
It looks like a challenge for me. You're on, pool.
You keep going, with your arm raised, trying to find it. Your breath is almost at the end, but you don't give a shit 'bout it and keep going. You never quit a good challenge.
After all the diving, you open your eyes inside the water looking at where the bottom is supposed to be, but... this isn't the bottom of the pool. It's sunlight.
'The hell– You stare for some moments, before you realize you're out of breath.
Oh, no! Shit!
You think trying to reach the top of whatever that is. You realize, you cannot reach it in time and before fainting, you think of the possibilities of what can this be. Yup, that's the last thing this retarded—you—try to do.
There is no way it can be solved in logic explanation, so the illogical explanation that makes more sense is...
... ... Inter-dimensional portal that rarely appears in Earth and I'm in what seems to be, a lake. Well, hope that this last supposition of what could it be don't be wrong after all.
You close your eyes ready for death to grab you and take you away. Well, you didn't expected it to be so suddenly after you close your eyes, 'cause you can feel someone grabbing you... with hooves. Before you open your eyes to see who was it, you faint for being a retarded challenge obsessed.
"Hey!"
You think you heard something... Meh.
"Hey, you!"
Now you're certain that someone is trying to speak to you.
"HEY!!"
Your eyes open out of a sudden, almost popping of your face as you take a deep breath and cough a lot. You're not dead.
You sit on the grass and look at your left and see your savior, laying at your side. Well... It wasn't laying, it was raised, quadruped and really small. A white unicorn with blue mane, red eyes and a tattoo on it's flank. You're shocked. You look around to see if there's anyone else, but the only living thing there was this big-eyed pony.
"Are you okay?" She says, concerned about you.
You see those two big red eyes staring at you and that 'Daw' glare, with concern and respond, "Yes...–" You put your hand at your head and try to think "–Do you got any apples with you there?*Cough*" You hopefully ask.
"Well... I've got none here, but if you want some, we can go to my house." She says, trying to get you up.
"I...*hah* don't wanna...*hah* bother ya...*puf*" You say, trying to breath properly.
"Hey... I know you're confused, so am I," she says."But first we've gotta save ya'."
The mare help you to rise. With magic.
Later...
We've walked up to her home and in the way, many of ponies—if not all of them—stared at me, all confused or feared but a peculiar one was smiling like if there was no tomorrow—she was a unicorn, by the way. Also, the pony that saved you is called Vinyl Scratch. She told you that her first job was as a DJ and the second was a secret... Hm... Is that a challenge?
You're grinning at her what makes her to back off, lil' bit scared.
"Well... so, Nybor... what's your job, back on your world?" Vinyl ask you trying to pull out a subject.
Hehe... Cute. I like her.[i/]
"I'm a secret agent and I'm kidding," you say trying to make her laugh. It works and you laugh together with her.
"I'm a detective. If not the best of my world, one of the two best," you say grinning. Certainly she thought that you were kiddin' again because she started laughing, but her laugh ends as she stares at your 'Not-kidding' face.
"You're... serious?" Vinyl ask you, with a twinkle on her big-red eyes,"That's so... AWESOME!!!" she scream, causing some ponies to stare at her... and then at me. This was getting annoying, but you ignore.
"Yeah, but my life is boring as... On this world I suppose it isn't hell, it is Tartarus," You say trying to find out this world shape. Now you've got an idea of how this worked. She looked surprised.
"How'd you know?" Vinyl ask you with a serious face."I didn't tell you that."
You feel like... she's interrogating you. I think I'll enter her game.
"Well, the living beings on this world are part of my world's mythology, so I presumed that Tartarus was Equestrian hell," you finish the sentence smiling at her as Vinyl ring the doorbell. It took some seconds for you to hear a mare's voice coming from inside.
"It's open, come on in!" the mare screams.
"Tavi, I'm not in conditions of opening it. I'm helping somepony here and I suppose Doc. would love to see who is it," she says. You hear somepony coming toward the door.
"What could it be,"–The grey mare with black mane and purple big eyes open up the door–"that D. would be so–"
Her widen eyes and shrunk pupils say she's surprised.
"Hey, I'm detective Nydor," you say trying to break the ice."Do you have any apples there? They help me a lot," you ask as you keep smiling.
Some discussion with Octavia and Vinyl, one apple and then the Doctor arriving later...
The room is silent. Everypony is looking at me expressionless. Doctor—brown pony, brown mane, blue eyes and with hourglass cutie mark—grinning but he was obviously trying to regain his composure. Vinyl and Octavia—Those two live together, but Vinyl told me she didn't 'play for the other team—asked you some questions about how'd I got there and how was Earth like. Both laughed in the middle of the story of how did you get here.
When they finished asking, you turn to them with a small grin,"Well... I also beated another challenge right now..." you say, creating suspense for everypony in the room.
Nybor's Reasoning
"After Vinyl saved me from the lake, on our walkthrough home–" You bite the apple you were holding as you retake your reasoning "–she told me she had a second job, but that this one was a secret and I took it as a challenge. When I presumed that Tartarus was Equestrian underworld, my suspicions on Vinyl grew up, causing me to be more curious–" you give that apple another bite and keep going. "–After Doctor arrived, you both started interrogating me, with the intention of discovering my intentions in this world. Now it's more than obvious she's a detective, but unlike me Vinyl and Octavia are teamed up and use the Doctor as the consultant," you finish your reasoning and bite the apple one more time.
"B-but... How'd you know I wasn't part of the team?" he asked you curious and with that English accent of his.
"Easy one–" you bite the red fruit once again, leaving it one bite to go "–You didn't ask me anything and Vinyl and Octavia glanced at you when I finished the story of how'd I came here."
The ponies stare at you, wide eyed and gaping on your accurate supposition. Bingo.
"AND... those faces confirm my hypothesis," you say giving your apple the last bite.
This land smell like adventure to me, you think grinning.
