Mach I

This moment could not get more akward. How could I have said anything worse? Twilight was staring at us still, waiting for our answer. I didn't handle awkward moments easily, so I nudged Neon with my back leg. It turns out that wasn't a great idea since I can barely keep my balance in my new legs. I fell flat on my face even with three more legs to support me.

Twilight began to laugh even though she was still waiting for a serious answer. Neon joined in and my cheeks heated up. At least I have a few more moments before I have to answer to Twilight. Twilight stopped laughing and looked at me. "Sorry about putting you on the spot. Why don't we sit down and talk about this?"

"I'd like that very much" I responded.

The three of us walked over to Twilight's kitchen. Neon and I sat down at Twilight's table. She came over to the table and asked, "First of all, how did you end up here?"

We both told Twilight about Earth and how humans were the dominant species. We also told her of how we were transported. Twilight cringed when Neon had to explain about the war in Afghanistan. She told me how Rainbow would find jets very interesting.

"So tell me, how did you know about Equestria before you came here?" She finally asked.

I knew I couldn't avoid the question any longer so I decided to just spill the beans. "Well, you see... In our world... We have entertainment on Television which is a box that shows video. You have video here don't you?"

"Yes, we do."

I continued, "We have a certain entertainment show on there called... erm... My Little Pony..."

"And? What is this 'My Little Pony' like?" She asked, now very skeptical again.

"Well, it is like... You." I finally said.

"Me? The show is about me?" she asked shocked.

Neon began, "Well, you are a main character in it, but it also is about Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie P-"

"We are a form of entertainment in your world?!" She screamed.

"Yes, I'm sorry if it sounds bad." I said.

"Does that mean... I'm not real? Just some drawn out creation?" She began to get teary.

Neon spoke up, "It's not like that Twilight. You are obviously in a full, real world. If it wasn't how could be be here in full, erm... pony form?"

Twilight began to wipe her eyes before any tears could fall. "I guess that makes more sense. Sorry to get emotional like that." She said, shakily.

"It's fine. We just need to know how this happened." I said

Twilight spoke clearly now, "Right now, I have no idea. I think we would have to go to the Canterlot archives like you suggested earlier."

"When can we get there?" I asked, excited.

"In a week. That is when I have to go to Canterlot and meet Princess Celestia about one of my... spells..." Twilight said, a little down.

Neon spoke up, "So, does that mean we have to stay here in Ponyville for a week and try to fit in?"

"Yes, I would let you two stay here in the library but there isn't much space." Twilight said. "You could probably find a hotel around here. I have never actually been to one, but I know there is one by Carousel Boutique."

Yes! Looks like we might meet Rarity. "I guess we'd better go check in there." I said, then got up from the table. Neon got up with me and we began to walk to the door.

"Thanks for helping Twilight. We will be back in around a week, maybe before then."

"How are you going to check in with no bits?" twilight yelled at us before we could walk out the door.

"Oh... Good point. I don't want to take any of your bits though Twilight." Neon yelled back.

Twilight walked over and spoke, "Being the princess' personal student has its perks. Bits are no problem to me."

She handed us about 50 bits and said, "Don't think I don't have enough."

"Thanks Twilight! I hope we don't have to come here and ask for more." I said

Neon spoke up, "Alright then, let's go check in."

I shouted "Thanks again!" before I closed the door. By the time we walked outside it was noon. The sun greeted us by warming our coats. I hadn't realized how cold the library was. We walked into the pathway outside the library and began to walk down the street. Bang! The sound of a massive explosion rocked the sky. I looked around and saw the source. There was a rainbow shooting across the sky. Towards me. I tried to jump out of the way, but my legs were frozen. A massive force smacked straight into me sending me flying. After tumbling across the dirt pathway for what was way too long to be safe, I stopped face down. I tried to look up but everything hurt too much. I heard a familiar voice, "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! I- I didn't mean to!" Why was that voice so familiar? Was that- Oh my god, it was! I tried to speak, but I couldn't. The wind got knocked out of me at a supersonic speed and I knew that for a fact.

I finally managed the strength to look up. I was staring into purple eyes. I quietly croaked, "It's fine. I'll just try to get up..." I sat there for a minute trying to move my legs. This may take a little while... "Okay, maybe not." I spoke quietly, then passed out.

I had no idea how long it was when I regained consciousness. I tried to move my eyelids open. Well, at least I'm not dead I thought. I could hear voices. It was Twilight's voice. Who was she talking to? "How can he look that much like me?!" Oh, it was Rainbow Dash. I could hear them talking in a pretty angry tone.

"This is weirding me out, Twilight!" Rainbow exclaimed

"I don't know what else to do then let them stay in Ponyville until I go to Canterlot, Rainbow." Twilight responded.

"Just take them now, that train comes and goes all the time."

"I know, I just don't want to face Princess Celestia until I absolutely have to."

Rainbow almost yelled back, "Twilight, for the last time, it wasn't that big of a mistake! You just didn't teleport the dragons out right. Big deal."

"I know, but how can I tell her that the dragons are still out there somewhere and terrorizing villages?" Twilight exclaimed. "The worst part is, I think I am the reason that the Neon and Inferno are here. I'm almost certain I mis-teleported them to Ponyville and I don't know how to send them back!"

Twilight is the reason we are here? Not much I can do now. Straining my ears I heard Twilight said quieter now, "I'm just going to wait the week, I'm sorry Rainbow."

"Ugh, fine." Rainbow said, obviously angry.

I heard hoofsteps . They came near me and stopped right next to me. My ear twitched, switching to its normal position, not having to strain to listen anymore. I tried to make a sound but only made a groan. More hoofsteps backed away right after. Oops, must've startled somepony. I heard Rainbow Dash whisper "Sorry Inferno..." then the hoofsteps backed away. I heard a door open, then close. A few minutes afterwords, I fell back unconscious.
