Load Full Story

Troy, a somewhat average man, 19 years of age average height, low weight and a happy expression on his face.

He was very happy as he walked slowly down the forest path, the day had been very good, he had gotten a job interview, one he had waited for a very long time.

The birds were chirping and the nearby river was moaning.. wait what?

He listened closer to a nearby river and heard a constant noise that sounded like a dull moaning noise. He peeked through the large bush and saw a strange hole near the river, it had a colorful picture in it, but the hole seemed to quiver and tremble, shaking as if on water.

He went closer, going through the bushes and leaned close to the hole "What the..." He kneeled on the ground and looked right into it.

He was caught off surprise as it sucked him inside and closed shortly after.

He felt himself move in more than three ways at once, it wasn't pain inducing but he got numb from it, his vision blurred and he got incredibly dizzy, as he was suddenly spat out of the ground, landing on his back and knocking the air right out of him.

He got up after a few minutes and he had regained most of his mind and body "Ow... that freaking hurt" he said in pain as he sat up slowly, moaning in pain.

He eventually stood up and saw he was close to a waterfall and went over to it, kneeling next to the pool of water that collected below it. He cupped his hands and splashed a handful of water on his face, he noticed that his green hoodie, red shirt underneath it and blue jeans were slightly dusty now, and whats more, he had been so happy, he had gone out with his slippers still on "Oh, Great!"

He, for the first time studied his surroundings, and saw he was no longer on Eartth, or his version of it, but he knew where he was, it made him squeal with delight as he acted like a fangirl for a moment "Ohmygosh! I'm... I'm... I'm in Equestria!!!" he shouted out with joy. But he shrunk down, feeling really nervous all of a sudden, as he realized he was no good with strangers, and since he was now in a land he only knew of in videos and fan fiction, with no friends he could think of he started to pace around the waterfalls pool, thinking of his next step.

Storm was busy sleeping near his usual spot, which was near a waterfall. He wasn't woken up by Troy until he squealed and danced like a giddy schoolgirl, he woke up with a jolt, but stayed quiet.

"I don't remember that voice...huh..." He turned over and looked at the tall person pacing around the, he did so with his hooves barely in front of his face, lying down on his stomach, but the lower half of hi body upright, so as to prepare to run if he needed to. He watched the human for a few minutes, thinking. "Doesn't look like he can fly... i wonder what his name is..."

He crept to the edge of the cloud and stood up, looking down at him, with his wings unfurled, he called out to the strange human "Hello? Whats your name?" He hoped that the human spoke his language, the strange thing is, he felt a hint of deja vu as he stared at the human.

The human seemed to freeze in complete surprise when their eyes met. he looked like he was stuck, so Storm shouted "My name is Storm chaser, what's yours?" the human looked like he was in a way relieved but also shocked and replied with a calm voice "I'm Troy... Am i really in Equestria?" Storm flew down from his cloud and smiled, giggling also "Yup Yup! The best, most friendliest country in all the world!"

Troy rubbed his head and nervously chuckled "I seem to be lost, is Ponyville nearby?" Troy asked him, Storm was slightly curious, how does he know about Ponyville, if he doesn't even know which country he's in... He shook it off and smiled "Oh, it's better if I just show you, we could talk along the way too!"

Troy still looked just barely unsure but mostly happy and nodded "Awesome, thanks Storm"

The two went down on the path towards Ponyville Storm was asking question after question, not really letting any time for Troy to answer, until Troy placed a hand over Storm's mouth, stopping them both "I've got an idea, there's this game i like to play, you and i both take turns asking questions and answering them, okay?"

Storm nodded, happiness shining in his eyes and face, and Troy continued "Alright, i'll start with something simple... what am i?"

"A Human!" Storm answered immediately and Troy smiled and nodded, them now continuing down the path "Alright, your turn"

They asked pretty simply questions, like "What do you do for a living" "Whats your favorite day" "How are you" "How was your day" and others, until Storm asked him finally "How did you get here?" but Troy couldn't think of anything "I don't know, i was walking on a forest trail, and i heard this low moaning noise, i found this hole in the ground and it sucked me in it, when i got close, like really close. And, well... here i am!" Storm nodded and smiled, looking as if he was thinking.

This was Troy's OC, without a doubt, the red hair that wore blue highlights to complement, along with a burgundy coat and a thundercloud cutiemark, and the usual happy attitude, though he negotiated talking about it with him, but decided against it.

It might be a bit creepy, knowing people could see you most of the time, people you would most likely never know.

Storm piped up, getting Troy's attention, "i bet i could beat you to the town square!" Troy giggled, and nodded, starting off on a run. Storm followed quickly, and on their way to the middle of town, the two matched eachother's  speed, Troy running as fast as he could in his slippers, and Storm flying as fast as he could, being a slow flier and all.

Troy heard a voice "Oh a Race?! Awesome!" and saw a blue streak speed past them, Storm and Troy were both panting, but Storm spoke to the blue streak, "Hay, Rainbow Dash! You know That's No Fair!" ending the sentence with a playful wink and a bright smile.

Once they reached the town hall, both Troy and Storm bent over to catch hteir breath, stopping immediately. in between pants Troy laughed and said "It... looks like... you won... Storm Chaser"

Storm nodded and giggled, and the two spotted Rainbow Dash, who just sat on the top of the town hall building, with a really strange look on her face.

Troy bugged her "What's... Wrong? cat... got your tongue?" and chuckled at Rainbow Dash's reaction, the sentence causing her to laugh a bit.

"So... what's your name?" Rainbow asked, a curious expression on her face.
