Who Your True Friends Are

I saw myself standing in my room back home. The marathon of My Little Pony episodes I had been watching was still going, and my phone was still showing the chat log from me and my Facebook friends. I had made it back to the human world. I was thinking that everything I just experienced must have been some sort of dream. It all still felt so real to me. Meeting all my friends (or at least, their ponies), being my OC, and even having a talk with one of Equestria's princesses, it felt like it was more than just a dream. I took a look around my room, to see if anything had been left behind as a memento of my experiences, but I saw nothing significant. I walked downstairs, disappointed, until I saw a letter laying on my dining room table. It gave off a rainbow glow as I looked at it. I knew that this meant.

It had been addressed to me, as I imagined it would be, and when I opened it up, I saw that the letter inside had been written in the most elegant of scripture. It said,

"Dearest Source Code,

I have heard your request, as you asked of Princess Luna. After much contemplation, we have both decided that you were correct in believing that you cannot simply abandon your new friends after everything you've been through, and you will be able to return to Equestria. If you will take a look at your phone, you will notice a feature has been added to it. You can use it to return to Equestria whenever you wish, and your TATTHoW can be used to return back to your home world. We eagerly await your return.

Sincerely,

Princess Celestia." I noticed that Princess Luna and all of my friends had also left signatures of their own. I pulled my phone out of my pocket, scrolled through my apps, and noticed that a new one, one without a name, had been added on its own page. Its icon appeared to be some sort of rainbow vortex. I tapped on it, and it said,

"Place your hand here to be taken to Equestria." I did just that, and saw myself and my phone phasing from this world, and my vision blacked out.

When I regained sight, there I was, standing in Ponyville's town square, once again as my OC. It seemed to be very early in the morning. My friends were all there, and they all gathered around me, and smiled. I assume they were ecstatic to see me return, as I was to know that I could now travel between both worlds at will. Suddenly, an announcement was played over the intercom around town, saying,

"Everypony, please gather at town square to witness Princess Celestia raise the sun as part of the Summer Sun Celebration." Within minutes, a massive herd of ponies all trotted towards the area, and the town was flooded with civilians. I was feeling nothing but joy, and I said to myself,

"Thank you, Princess Luna, for everything." Her voice beckoned to me in response,

"You deserve it, Source Code." I smiled, and took a look at all the ponies around me. My thrills peaked when I noticed the Mane 6 walking towards us. Both groups of elements were about to meet.
