The Answer

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

After an annoyingly loooong drive to Shocks (People just drive like their blinkers aren't in their car for some friggin' reason) I walk into the restaurant and tried to spot Rey and everyone else. They spotted me and waved me over to the back of the place which had this really big booth seat and let me sit down next to Rey.

"Sup guys?"

"Nothing much, why did it take you some long to get here Leon? It's like a 10 minute drive." Rey asked. Says for her, she didn't enter her own mind then wake to only encounter the lovely moments in life like rush hour.

"Rush hour." Is all I had to reply with and everyone nodded in familiarity. The waitress came up to us for what we wanted so we ended up ordering two large pizzas except for Sean who got spaghetti because he has an issue with sharing...He's just like that. While we waited we just sat and talked the whole time. It was nothing though, only about what projects are incoming, and other jazz. There had seemed to be a long wait and we were just about to call it out when the waitress came up to our table with both pizzas. She gave us a sorry for the long wait and to enjoy the pizza. This pizza was layed out with everything I'd drool over! There was pepperoni, sausage, onions, diced tomatoes, and green peppers all combined to make the most delicious and best smelling pizza to ever exite my taste-buds.

"What are we waiting for? Let's dig in! I cheered while grabbing a big slice.


"Best...Pizza...Ever!" I groggily announced.

Jesus how many slices did I eat? Brain?

Eight and a half dude.

Awesome....

I was already back in my car after eating and Rey was with me. She looked like she about ready to pass out at any given moment, but I won't blame her if we ate a good amount of pizza after school. I asked her how many did she have and she said not to worry about it and that she'd feel it in the morning. Shrugging in reply to her's, I started up the car, turned up the volume on the radio, and drove off. In some coincidence one of my favorite "thinking songs" as I like to call it came on. Good thing for me I had thinking to do since Rey actually did pass out momentarily. She look peaceful at body and mind, but no not me. Not my mind at least.

That Princess woman deity Luna whatever she was of course expecting to met up with me again. Next time I hope she skips to the waiting room and not all the scary crap that went on or what felt like eternity. What is her world even like? Is it parallel? Is it being currently destroyed by three little girls with super powers? Hell, maybe it's more peaceful than ever! I won't ever know unless I say yes.

Huh, rhymed again. Nice going brain.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or-

You're my brain! You know what I know because I know what you know!

Alright checks out..

First of, why of all times would anyone like her go towards me out of anyone else? She would've had an instant answer from
Amy and the day is done. I find that a bit odd to begin with. It's actually boggling how she went through my dreams into my memories. There's no humanly way possible to even do that! Something seriously fishy is up with her, but I'll save the question for the next confrontation. Yet when I think about it, accepting her offer would seem like a great idea if you'd ask me. As much as I appreciate the life I'm currently living, I'm seriously thinking about going over to her place. Maybe it's pretty cool....As long as I can charge my phone there. Luna however didn't tell me what her place was named. Whatever it's called, I can tell for certain it's probably ran in a monarchy as by her title.

Even after being in for what felt like nearly an hour a state of mind I had already arrived back at Campus. I woke up Rey and told her we were back. She thanked me and I let her out the car.

"You have fun?" I asked

Rem smiled "Yeah, that was great!"

"Alright, see you later then."

"Yeah."

We hugged then we departed our ways. Rem stayed in the second dorm building considering the large amount of attendees at the college so we never really get to hang out near campus at times. On the way back though, I forgot something in my car and headed back. I opened my front door and opened the glove compartment to grab my wallet when I noticed a piece of paper. Not even a scroll? It was wrapped up in a red fabric with a special golden emblem on it.

"Huh? How the.." I ask bewildered as I open it. In it it read,

Dear Mr.Gant, We send you this from our home world with the little time we have. As you continue to decide unless you already have, We'll soon contact you immediately so make haste on your decision. Once we've met again, We'll be meeting with my older kin, Celestia as she'll be the one to help you blend in with our people to dissipate any suspicions between you and where you reside from if you accept. Decline, and all ties with you are broken.

Sincerely, Princess Luna

I rolled it back up and placed it in my pocket. Wow, even they'd disguise me if I'd accept. I wouldn't find that at any way disturbing. But yet, she has a sister is what's baffling. By the name Celestia it sounds like a Sun goddess which would place Luna as some Moon goddess. If they actually are that is. No way, but I can still take the princess part. I quickly headed into my wing of the dorms, opening my wallet and taking our my ID. I gave a long, pensive look at my information. Another life? Would I become a girl or something? Maybe even some suddenly appearing royal prince. If not those two, then I'll just get the good old regular life. Yet on second though, what if they have completely different customs from here? I wouldn't fit in at all and my cover would be blown.

"Damn, I forgot about that didn't I?" I muttered to myself.

No matter what I still had to make a decision.


I open my door, set my car keys, wallet and the scroll on the top of my dresser and I just sit on my bed. It was about as silent as the vacuum of space. I just sat there, staring at my television. I'm going to have to actually think didn't I? I closed my eyes for what felt like years where quickly speeding past me. I was in a complete pensive state of mind where I was only blocked in with my consciousness. I attempted to imagine what this whole kingdom and whatnot this Princess, who turned out to have an older sister is like? I imagined it a bit more in the past like the age of the renaissance. You know, Laissez-fair and all that. I walked around within it, the place seemed peaceful for a change. I then found myself changing scenery into the main castle. It towered over me about 150 ft. tall! Everything began to fade away. I'm now back on that damned elevator.

Ahhh hell did I fall asleep again?

"It appears so." echoed a voice. The elevator beeped and the door opened. It's the lobby again. But now this time I notice Luna and whoever is standing by her. He radiance kinda added extra light to the room as if she herself was like a miniature sun...Speaking of hot by the way, WOW. She had hair about the same length or longer than Luna's as it waved different colors of the spectrum in a sense yet, violet wasn't there. The woman was almost two inches taller than Luna and had a very defined figure. Her curves were of course noticeable and was very beautiful in facial features. She noticed me checking her out and gives me a smile. I've been detected, abort mission eyes.

Yes, commander.

"Oh, where are my manners, this is our oldest sister, Celestia." Celestia, who it turned out to actually be, gave me a small bow and I returned with one back.

"Pleasure to meet you."

"As to you the same." I replied. Smooth is my middle name, you know.

"You of course, Mr.Gant are back here and you understand why, right?" Luna asked, she had a stern tone in her voice which mean she was ready for business. I silently nodded. "Good, we were hoping so. Now we must ask, do you accept the offer?" She inquired. There it was, that question. She gazed at me like if she was studying a foreign animal, attempting to understand my thoughts and what I was feeling. We sat for ages until I looked up, determination burning in my eyes.

"I accept your offer." swiftly flew out of my mouth. I had tied my soul into whatever will soon ensue. Luna peacefully get's up, eyes are shut.

"It has been heard. We thank you for accepting, Mr.Gant." She delivers. "Are we done here for now, dear sister?"

"Yes, I believe so." She replies. They walk up to a door and open it, before they exit Luna looks back at me.

"You will be receiving something once you wake up, Mr.Gant. We expect to se you tomorrow as that's when you will start. Have a good nights sleep." Was what she last said before exiting along with her sister before the door slams shut.

Dem asses tho

Exactly, sir.

Eyes, I haven't given you permission to speak.

.....

Everything fades away from me and I'm left floating before even it feels as if I disappear too. I immediately shot awake, sweating like I was just in the most intense sports game of my life. My clothes were still on and I stared at the clock as it read 11:30 PM on the dot. Thank god it was Friday or I'd have to jump off the 6th story floor. I took off my clothes, leaving me in just my boxers and I was going to head right to sleep, but I noticed something under my bed. It was this book, bigger than one of those weird Twilight ones or whatever that mess is. It was a fresh copy of what seemed to be "The History of Equestria Vol. 1"

"Sugar honey ice tea! Volume one?" I exasperated. I mean, I can read a book easily. but damn would I have a ways to go. How many volumes am I going to have to read? I opened it up to the very first page where a note was left by someone. It read

Enjoy the first one of twelve!

I'm going to probably hate initiation, aren't I? I flipped through the book, every page had some pictures and a million words on each. Whatever this Equestria place is, it has quite the deep history. Hopefully it isn't akin to ours and how things went down on our side of the multiverse or what not. I got into bed, checked my emails on my phone, then went to sleep. I had all Saturday to myself and then my first day at this new place. As long as I get my sleep, I'm happy, that is.

Leon Gant, you now have a double life and probably just sold your soul to two very beautiful princesses that can invade deep inside your brain. What have you done? Rey would probably chastise me with.

And my answer to that?

Same thing I do everyday, live life.
