The Mass

You slither along. You don't know much else. For twelve hundred years you have slithered and fought to survive. For twelve hundred years you have thought about the day you were brought here by Discord.

“Come with me and know limitless bounty of flesh and wealth, come with me and know fun beyond your imagination.”

The words burn through your mind. The lies.

You have prowled these woods, fought in these woods, hunted. For all these centuries you have survived and for all those years you have clung to the life you once had.

Harry

New York

Family

You repeat these words day after day. You have one more word that's burns your mind but also brings you comfort.

Pony

You remember the ponies, you remember the joy they brought you and how you longed to be or live as one of them. The memory of the day you came to Equestria flashes in your head.

Twelve Hundred Years Ago

You place down your bag and flop onto your favourite chair, the day had been a tough one and your boss sure let you feel every second of it. Your reach for the remote and press the on button, the T.V switches on and you flick through the channels until you fall on the one you are looking for. You sink into the chair as you watch the show you have come to love. My Little Pony.

You still laugh about the day you started watching out of curiosity. You only tuned in that one day because you saw the parody videos on youtube. And you have watched ever since.

You laugh as Pinkie goes wild, you always loved her antics. In your mind though there was three ponies who always held a special place and they weren't even main characters. A few months after finally admitting your a brony you find that three background ponies are your favourites.

Roseluck

Daisy

Lilly

The three flower ponies of Ponyville. You have them as wallpaper and even some posters you had made by some brony artists.

You carry on watching as a thought crosses your mind.

'I wish I could go to Equestria.'

You laugh to yourself as that would be impossible, earth has no magic and last you know there was no technology to cross dimensions. You sigh as the episode comes to an end. Putting down the remote you head for the kitchen and peer into the icebox.

“What to make? What to make?” You ask yourself as you tap your chin.

“I would choose the omelette, you can't go wrong with those.”

“Thanks.” You reply, only to spin around in fright. “Jesus humping fuck!” You grab your chest.

“Oh I’m sorry did I not introduce myself?” You watch as Discord flashes into existence. “I'm Discord or god of chaos, which ever takes your fancy.”

“I know who your are!? How did you get into my house!?” You shout.

“I flashed in or so to speak but enough about me, I want to talk about you!”

“Me!”

“Yes, you and your little wish that you made.” The Discord snaps a clawed hand and appears behind you.

“What wish?” You ask, trying to comprehend that Discord was in front of you.

“This wish.” Discord pulls out a scroll and puts on glasses. “Quote. I wish I could go to Equestria. End quote.” Discord removes the glasses and raises an eyebrow at you. “Is that the jist of it?”

You scratch the back of your neck. “I guess I did mention that, yeah.”

“Oh good, I'm glad I'm not wasting my time.” Discord snapped his claws and a portal appeared. “So? Do you want to?”

“Wait! What?” You question staring at the portal. “Right now?”

“Why not? Your not doing anything are you? Besides who can resist the lure of mares.” Discord grins.

“Wait, lure of mares?” You ask, raising an eyebrow at Discord.

“Why yes! I know you have...Thoughts.” Your face reddens. “I thought so. I know about the darker side of your...following. What do they call them? Ah yes, cloppers. It's quite the name, very fitting.” Discord smiles as he folds his arms. “I can guarantee you mares and the wealth to go with them, all you have to do is pass through.”

“What's the catch? I know from the show you always have a motive.” You say pointing a finger.

Discord gasps. “Me! Oh you wound me! I have no motive, I just what to help. You have a dream and I can fill it.”

“So I get to live in Equestria and have a marefriend?”

“Oh yes, you might even get several mares and did I mention lots of bits too.” Discord grins wider. “Come and know limitless bounty of flesh and wealth, come with me and know fun beyond your imagination.”

Your brain ticks over as you think, you've always wanted to go to Equestria to meet your three favourite ponies. You close your eyes and finally you give in.

“Fine, I'll go!”

Discord claps. “Wonderful, just step through the portal and you will be in your new form and in Equestria.”

You approach the portal and put your hand through it before bringing it back out.

“It won't hurt will it?”

“Oh my no, well maybe at the start but it will pass.”

“Ok, here it goes.” You say as you step forward and enter the portal.

You feel tingling over your body as you get sucked into the swirling vortex, you scream as you spin around and around. The pain lasts for several moments before you feel yourself ejected onto hard ground. You lay still for several minutes as your body feels like it wants to bring everything you ate in the last four hours back up. You raise your hand to your head but that's not what you feel.

You open your eyes and spot a green tentacle sprouting from your arm, you sit up quickly and inspect your limb. You move to touch it but find your other arm is the same, you have no fore arm from the elbow just some waving green tentacle.

“What the fuck happened!” You shriek as you continue to stare at your flailing new arms.

A sudden spate of laughter erupts around you.

“Discord! What have you done to me!”

“I have brought you here to Equestria! Just not your Equestria. I have brought you twelve thousand years before your little show, and before I was reformed.” Discord spits the last word. “I was never the good type, after Tirek I tired to fit in but for me it was mindless and boring. Oh sure the princesses tried to help too but it didn't work, I still found everyday life dull. That is until I found this delightful time travel spell, and how easy it was to learn.” Discord laughs.

“You said you would change me into a pony!”

“I said no such thing! I said you will find yourself in a new form, and you will. Just not the one you think. It will take several years before your final form has transpired, but then again your human you will adapt.” Discord flies up into your face. “Be well my little human, you journey has just begun.” Discord laughs and vanishes before your eyes.

You cry out to him but find it futile, he wasn't coming back. You look to your arms again and cry. You look up and around to find yourself outside a forest, you stand up and give the woods a good long look. You look back to your arms and walk forwards, the forest swallowing you up.

Present Day

You come to a halt as the memory ends, you would cry but that time has long passed. You can't change what happened but you smile anyway as the centuries have caught up to the timeline you know. Slithering forward you reach your destination and hide at the forest edge, your one eye scans the gorge nearby. Then you see them, the mane six or more importantly season four ending mane six. You watch as they run into the cave to open the box and release the power within.

Your form shivers as Tirek stomps closer to the cave and destroys several trees with magic. You can't help but mentally smile as you are witnessing the defeat of Tirek up close. You watch as the mane six surrounded by magic appear out of the gorge and fly up into the sky, you know Tirek isn't going to win but you watch anyway.

The mane six defeat Tirek exactly like the show and send him back to Tartarus. You turn around and head back home, as much as the after battle events play out you have already seen what happens and don't stick around. You head for the clearing where Twilights castle will spawn.

By the time you reach the location you see the castle has already risen and they were singing the song from the end of the season four episode. You scan the ponies outside the castle and with a breath held you spot them. Twelve hundred years you have waited to get this close, many times you have entered Ponyville under darkness but you have never found your quarrys.

Today that has changed, today you have looked open the muzzles of the three most beautiful ponies in town. Today you have found your flower ponies.

Your body makes a sound similar to a chirp as you stare at Roseluck, Lilly and Daisy. Knowing you can't talk to them or touch them. You growl as you think of discord and how he ruined your life, you shake with rage as you think about how you can't tell anypony. Your tentacles thrash on the ground in your anger before you shriek and turn away.

You slither back to your home in the Everfree Forest, it isn't the best of places but for over a thousand years it has sheltered you. You slither past the other occupants of your home, their squeaks sound through the cave as they hang upside down. You keep moving till you reach the back of the cave and enter a large cavern.

You move to a makeshift area of cloth and settle down, the movement today has been tiring. You turn your one eye up to the wall nearby and gaze upon the stolen pictures of your three favourite mares. Reaching out a tentacle you pull a picture off the wall and bring it closer, it was a picture of the three flower ponies together at some party. You make a whimpering sound as you rest your limbs.

'One Day' You think. 'One Day I will speak to you and everything will be perfect.'

You replace the picture and drift off to sleep, tomorrow was hunting day.
