I am a human, I went to my room to see a changeling… Why am I in love with a changeling? Can I become one too? Is any of it possible? Is it even real, or am I just Dreaming?

The Surprise ~

  I was headed for my room, it was 10:20pm. I turned left, went down the hall, turned right took two steps, turned left, took 3 steps and froze. I jumped back, slammed the door, and stood against the wall opposite of it. 'what the hell was that?! A black thing with fangs... And bug-like wings? It can't be a?

  "Nah, couldn't be. It's just a TV show," I said, then I opened the door, just to see it again. "Hello? what are you? are you OK?" I asked, expecting no answer from the thing.

  "N-no... I'm starving," It said in a female Multi-voice, the same way Queen Chrysalis talks but a different voice.

  I blinked five voices. "What are you?"

  "A changeling."

'of course...' "My name is Jeffrey... But I prefer my pretend Changeling name Shifter," I said.

  "I'm Sage... A stray future queen. I somehow got transported here," she said, nearly crying.

  "You're not just lost and starving," I started, "You're adorable," I said trying to soothe her.

  "I- thank you..." she said, slightly blushing.

  "hey... I May be human, but I came up with this thing that will heal anything... It'll take a while though," I told her.

  "Give it to me... Please... I need it," She begged me for it. I pulled out a small black pill and put it in her mouth. She swallowed it after a few seconds.

  "Th-thank you," she said.

  "Your welcome," I replied, and hugged her.

  The next day, after I got home, I went to check on her. She could move her head to look around her now.

  "Hello, Sage," I said.

  "Hello," was all she said before resting her head again.

  "You're healing... That's good," I said to her.

  "Yes, I know," she said in response.

  "Do you need anything?"

  "You."

  "What?"

  "I need you... Please... Stay here."

  I was surprised. "Alright," I reponded.

  I took off my NASA clothes behind her, and put on normal clothes, and sat down next to her, and rested my hand on her neck.

  "How do you humans live?" she asked.

  "Similar to ponies, except there isn't much harmony here," laughed at the last part. She rubbed her head against me.

  "That sounds terrible. Once I'm fully healed, maybe we could both go back to Equestria?"

  I looked at her. "Sure... If it's possible."

  "Alright... Shifty," she giggled.

Great, she had a nick name for me, one that means she-. SHE LIKES ME?! Who knew?

  The next day, I came home to find her able to attempt to stand up, even though she couldn't.

  "Hey, don't hurt yourself," I said.

  "I won't," She replied, resting again.

'right, whatever' "Why are you trying to get up, anyway? Your obviously still too weak."

  "Because, I can't just lay here and do nothing..."

  "Don't worry, It's fine. You're fine. Alright?"

  "Fine."

  As several days went by, she improved more, first being able to stand without tiring, then walk slightly, but I didn't expect what was next to come...

The Home ~

  "This'll be our home for now!"

'there goes my fantasy...' "cool!"

  "I know it's not much, but it's enough for now..."

  "What about a hive?"

  "I need children first and, I'm not ready yet...'"

'Well, shit. Gonna be a while is my guess...' "Physically, Mentally?"

  "Neither, Just not ready," she answered.

'Great unknown time length... Shit.' "Alright."

  After a few days of occasional leaving and just chatting, and playing around, she said something that didn't surprise me, but caught me off guard.

  "Shifter," she started, blushing a bit, "I love you," she finished, blushing brightly.

  There was an awkward 2 second silence before I responed, "I love you too, Sage."

  I found myself on a rock, in the everfree, and hopped off. I was wandering around and a changeling came flying by, and vanished in front of me. I turned around, and a manticore swatted at me. In responce, I woke up. I made sure my eyes stayed closed until I fell back asleep. I had this nightmare repeatedly for the next 3 weeks. It wasn't making me lose sanity, instead it was annoying the shit out of me. Fuck you nightmare, fuck you.

  I woke up and Immediately headed outside.

  *SMACK, SHATTER*

  "Oops, I dropped the box," Said an unusual voice. Having watched My little pony as a human, I recognized the voice, It was Derpy.

  "You should be more careful next time! That was glass!" I said.

  "Sorry! I was looking at a cloud shaped like a muffin!" she replied.

'Oh Derpy... You and your muffins.' "Alright, Just continue!"

I flew down to ponyville, Several ponies flipped out when they saw me, a few just stared, a bunch ignored, and half minus a pink one chatted about me. The pink one was Pinkie Pie.

'Oh jeez... Here we go.'

  "Oooh!!!!" Pinkie squealed, then ran up to me.

  "hello," I said.

  "Ohmygosh! I'veneverseenyoubeforesoyoumustbenew! Ilovemeetingnewponies! Howareyou?! Mynameispinkiepie! Oh! I'vegottarunseeya!" she darted off after that.

'She spoke at Over 9000 words per second... Typical.'

  I wandered around, and saw what looked like a mare, but I knew it wasn't, the pony was beige, and had green in his mane and tail. He was WoodenToaster.

  "oh my gosh! Glaze can I have your autograph?!" A pony asked him, incredibly excited.

  "Sure," he replied, then he signed whatever the mare was holding. He then looked to his right, and saw me. Several other ponies also saw me and flipped out, telling WoodenToaster, or Glaze, his stage name, to do something about the 'White Changeling thing'

  "White changeling thing?!" his voice sounded slighlty frustrated. He walked over to me.

  "Hey, Shifter, how's it goin'?!" my pony-father asked.

  "I'm fine. And you?" I asked.

  "I'm good. Hey, let's go talk somewhere else," he suggested.

  "Sure," I said, and we began walking southwest.

The Love ~

  I woke up to Sage poking at me.

  "Goodmorning!!!" she said, looking at me.

  "Good morning," I replied, yawning.

  "Do you know what Today is?!" she asked.

'what was it called? Ah, Hearts and hooves day! Wait-... Oh jeez... She's gonna be loopy loco all day long! wait- maybe I'll be able to...' "Hearts and hooves day?" I said.

  "Yes!!! It is!!!!" she said, excitedly.

'Or maybe not...' "So?" I asked. She hugged me tightly, and I could barely breath.

  "So, It's my favorite day!!!" she said excitedly

'Or maybe she'll end up raping me... Oh jeez, she has no sanity today.' "Alright, Can you let me go now?" i said, hardly able to talk.

  "Oh! sorry!" she said, letting me go.

  "And you're going to do what?" I asked, hoping for a dirty answer.

  "Spend all day with you," she replied.

  "And what'll we be doing?" i asked, getting a bit excited.

  "Learning more about each other, going out.... Things like that!" she answered.

'well, there goes my fantasy... Again.' "That's nice," I said.

  "I know!" she said, and all of that, is exactly how we spent the day.

  Once it became late, I was trying to sleep, woke up to the same nightmare, and heard Sage talking about trying to be ready for something... But what? I fell asleep before I could hear what it was about.

The Portal ~

  Exactly one week from when I first saw her, I walked into my room and- *SMACK!!!!!*

  She tackled me.

  "Hi!!!"

  "Hello... Sage"

  "I'm fully healed! Thank you thank you thank you!"

  "You're welcome."

  "Please accept this gift!"

  A spurt of magic flew from her horn, memories of a queen changeling from the opposite side of the planet from equestria, being married to Woodentoaster and killed by Chrysalis, and me hating her flew into my mind. I looked like a changeling after she stopped but, my wings and eyes were orange, and my body was white.

  "You're a Shiftling!"

  "wait, that's what my changeling self Shifter is... These memories are his past! You, what the?"

  "I was on your computer," she said.

  "I- did you read 'S-o-m-c'?" I asked, and I felt embarrassed? I truely was turned into Shifter.

  "Yes, I did," she replied.

  "I didn't think you would be able to," I admitted.

  "Well, I can!" she replied.

  "So you know about my secret about you?" I asked, speaking slowly.

  "Yes, I do. You look cute..," she changed the subject.

  "Th-thanks..," I replied, blushing.

  She started using a teleportation spell.

  "Hey, Shifty! Use a portal spell! point it at the wall outside your room! My spell is locked onto Ponyville!"

  I did as she said, and we used the spells at the same time, creating a portal to Ponyville.

  We walked through, and Sage looked at me.

  "We made it!" she yelled, excited.

  She suddenly kissed me, and I couldn't help but respond by doing the same. 'Wait, how am I iin love with a changeling? I was human before! what is wrong. with me?'

   She broke the kiss after a minute.

  "Let's go!"

  She took off to the clouds above the field North-Northwest of the actual town.

  I followed her, to find she built a cave like structure out of the clouds, and I went in , she closed it up leaving a single ray in the center of the place, large enough to see around the place and outside, but too small to go through, or see IN through. 'is she going to-?'

  Although a bit worried, deep inside, I knew I wanted her to.
