Trapped in Equestria

That morning the group of friends walked out with Twilight to the train station, even with Spike dragging behind. Twilight was excited about the new arrivals.

"I mean, I have read up on theories about other dimensions, but oh boy I never imagined something like this! Humans! I tried to look them up but there is no mention of this species in any of my books and even..." She continued to babble on and Jesse turned to Kristy.

"Hey... I've been thinking... how do you think we got here in the first place?" Kristy shrugged.

"I just set it to the Boast Busters episode. I don't think I did anything else weird. Maybe it's some magic voodoo or something that we've never seen before..." Josh popped his head in.

"Did anyone notice we actually have no cutie marks? I mean really why don't we have cutie marks? I WANT A VIDEO GAME CUTIE MARK!" Kristy put her hoof on his muzzle, silencing him quickly.

"Josh I have no idea-" Josh pushed her hoof away and frowned.

"My name is Shade. I am a pony of Equestria now, and I refuse to be called my human name." He said. Kristy and Jesse groaned, putting their hooves on their faces in shame. Jesse turned to his sister again.

"I guess it doesn't really matter how we got here. Or at least not right now. All we need to worry about is getting John, er, Redwolf back home." Kristy nodded solemnly and then John trotted up to them.

"Why does everything need to be so colorful?! It hurts my friggen eyes." Jesse and Josh put their hooves around him and hugged him, laughing.

"You're such a downer, bro. Calm down. Just imagine it  though, if you stayed, we could all be masters at flying and using magic!" Kristy jumped up and down, laughing.

"I want to fly to the train station! Come on Jess let's go!" Jesse galloped beside her and they both extended their wings, flapping them quickly. Twilight grinned and snickered, watching them. They rose into the air, but then slammed back down into the ground.

"What the buck?! Why can't we fly?!"

"Aww my wings won't work!"

Twilight helped them up.

"Well I'm guessing humans don't have wings, right? You can't just pick up flying in a day. You need practice and vigorous training to be able to fly." Jesse glared off into the distance, pouting over his disappointment.

They all finally reached the train station and as they went inside, Josh tried to use magic.

"HGN! GRR!!!! AVADA KEDAVRA!!!!! EXPELLIARMUS! SHADE USED CONFUSION! AHHH!" Kristy slowly reached up and pushed Josh's horn away from her emotionless face. She stood, facing the straining stallion and pulled her hoof back, furrowing her eyebrows.

"Falcon... PUNCH!" She slammed her hoof into Josh's shoulder and he brayed in pain.

"Oww! Whatja do that for?" She frowned, sitting back down.

"Imagine what would've happened if you HAD gotten it to work. Would 'Expelliarmus' pull my horn out of my skull? Or maybe 'Confusion' could make MY magic spiral out of control and hurt someone. And 'Avada Kedavra'? Really?" Josh sulked back into his seat. Twilight looked at his horn.

"Maybe... maybe because you're not from this world... you can't use magic." All three of them turned incredulously to the mare. She blushed and then continued.

"Well that explains the not being able to fly and your attempt here pretty well. Even if the spells, well if you could call those 'spells', didn't work, you'd still see the horn shimmer slightly. And pegasi... well their aerodynamics are all wrong and they wouldn't be able to fly on their own without a little magic to help them. Maybe since you weren't born ponies, maybe you didn't get magic from your parents."

Jesse began to cry incessantly.

"WHYYYYYY I WANTED TO BE A PONY EVEN AN EARTH PONY WOULD BE NICE BUT I WANTED TO FLY OR USE MAGIC AND NOW I CAN'T WHYYYYYYYYY!" Josh went over and began to cry with him.

"IF WE CAN'T USE MAGIC, THEN WHAT ABOUT OUR CUTIE MARKS?! NOOOOOOOO!"

John scoffed and looked outside at the landscape.

"Just let me out of this place and I'll be happy."
