Prologue [Edited]

The air ruptured in screams of joy and happiness as graduation caps filled the air from the students who had just hit a new milestone in their lives. Family members and friends in the stadium (whom were also caught in the excitement) were cheering for joy while some were rushing to their sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, niece, nephews or friends from the stands to graduated those who they came out to see. They had completed one of life great challenges which would help them have more open doors into the future. These students had finished college...

I looked around for my cap that I had thrown into the air in my excitement to no avail. For the most part... I did not bother to even just pick one up either. The parchment in my hands was all I really care about at that moment... funny how that is. All of this long work in life to be given a piece of paper that said you were good at something. Well I guess that is not true as I knew what I really cared about was the meaning behind having this piece of paper. Life was set on a path to finally start it in the right direction.... which is what they always wanted for me. It was not just to graduated college or something they force me to do... no.. for all they cared I could be working at like McDonald all my life if it made me happy. They being my parents.... had always told me "We just want you to be able to live life to the fullest, never to have any regrets, to do what you want to do that makes you happy and smile, and above all else do what allows you to just be...well you." Standing there I watch the sunny blue sky as clouds lazily floated by in the sky and knew that somewhere my parents were looking down at me smiling at what I had achieved.

Family members and friends started to go their separate ways with the student they came to see as fellow students said their final goodbyes. The graduation ceremony now over I started to walk towards the student's parking lot on the other side of campus. While walking slowly in the sun, I took in the sight of the university for the last time as past memories spent here roam around in my head. Thoughts of happy times during university rolled around in my head and the thought of my first day starting here came to mind. I sighed as I remembered that day... it was to me the most difficult day here. Starting college was my first major event in my life after my parents died in a car crash during my junior year of high school. I quickly rid that thought as I did not want to ruin my happy mood.

I was just in sight of my car when I figured I would change out of my graduation outfit and into some more comfortable clothing. Unlocking the back door on the driver side to the loads of cardboard boxes that were cramp into the back seat and passenger seat after I had finished clearing out my dorm room. I found a t shirt and shorts and ran into my dorm room real quick to change. Soon returning back outside, happy to be in something that was not making me want to itch all over, I walked to my car again and threw my graduation outfit in the back seat, locked the back seat, and closed the door. I walk over to the driver side car door and... tried to open it. To my surprise, it did not open and I smack my hand to my head realizing how dumb I felt that a newly graduated college student would forget that the door he locked 3 hours ago was still... locked. I search my pockets for my keys to also remember that they were still in my graduation outfit in the back seat... in the locked car.

I slam my head against the car and signed. "Well this is just such a great start." I said with an annoyed growl. I really hate the habit that my father had gotten me to learn. My father was a bit of the paranoid type and after my mother's car got broken into (nothing but a CD and some change was stolen out of the car) it made my father to start locking the car door when he got out... which in turn.... got me doing it after always telling me to do it as I got out of the car. Still leading my head onto the car, I search my pockets again for my phone which with some relief was in my right pocket. Pulling it out I let out a sigh and started to look up the phone number for the local police department so I could get them to come out and get my car unlocked. After finding the number via Google, entering it into my phone, and pressing the green phone icon before holding it to my ear....nothing.

I waited a couple seconds but still heard nothing... not even ringing.

Uh, why is this thing not making any noise? thinking to myself.

As I brought the phone back in front of me, I tap the screen and swipe my finger from the middle to the side to unlock it. The call menu show up on the screen and saw that I had actually started the call and the timer for the call was still going.

Do I even have a signal? I asked myself looking to the top of the smart phone to see I had service and all my bars. "Well, what in the hell is wrong with this damn thing?" I said out loud starting to get annoy again. I brought up the phone to my ear to hear nothing but silence again.

As I started to pull the phone away from my ear my mind finally focus on what was going around me. Somehow I failed to notice how I was currently being engulfed by darkness. Frozen in fear, my body stood there until my vision and all around me was filled with nothing by darkness as a unknown voice started laughing evilly as my eyes and body grew heavy and tiresome.

As I started falling unconsciousness, the voice whispered into my ear "Say goodbye to your world and hello to your new one. May your new life be filled with joy and happiness, sadness and anger, pleasure and pain, good and evil, and above all else harmony... and.. my personal favorite... CHAOS."

I caught a pair of yellow eyes with red pupils looking at me where the voice was coming from. The eyes filled my vision until my eyes went shut and I slipped into dreamland.

Chapter 1 - Harmony & Chaos? [Edited]

Waking up was odd due to what I felt like was landing with a big smack into the ground from a good height... and this cause some errrrmm..... lets just go with "slight...issues". I felt a sharp pain in my head with a stinging sensation that felt like a pretty bad headache buttt that was only the first of odd things. Opening my eyes, I took notice of how my body was laying on what seemed like grass. As I took a deep breath in it was clear how of a mistake that was because... god... the pain in my chest was unbearable. I scream in agony as I felt my chest feel as if it was on fire and someone was stabbing me at the same time... slowly with a knife that kept going in and out that went along with my breathing. Grabbing a hold of my chest and to my horror I felt what seemed as if some bones, on my ribs cage, were broken and out of place. I flip onto my back to get pressure of my body's weight off of my chest and sat up. Grunting in pain, I decided to get a fix on where the hell I was as I quickly looked around me.

Around me was a field of grass with trees popping into view every now and then. I started to panic as my mind scan my memories for a reason that would explain the situation before me. Everything seem to snap into place after a minute as I had took a look above me to see some sort of vortex above me that look very out of place. I put together a theory of the voice must of sent me through that vortex/portal and the end of the road was up there. Noticing the vortex was closing, I panic trying to figure out a way through it until all I saw was the sun out with a beautiful clear sky above me. Well... FUCK! Mumbling how screw I was as I winced every time I breath, my mind wonder back to the voice... the memories of the odd voice and the eyes of ...whatever it was.... took center stage in my mind.

What the flipping hell was that... thing? What did it mean with what it told me? What did it mean by say goodbye to my old world and hello to a new one?

As tried to calm myself down, I continue my thoughts.... Wait... I'm not in some different world am I... that can not be possible... stuff like that is just science fiction... made up stories...right? This just has to be a prank of some sort by some classmates... yeah.. they must of drug my drink in my dorm room the night before or something.. With that delusional thought making me feel calm again, I stood up on my feet but as soon as I put pressure on my right leg a sharp pain filled my leg as I fell on my ass. I attempted to yell some cuss words but all I got was me coughing up blood.

What the fuck? I thought as I tried to talk again but my throat was throbbing in pain as yet again the same result happen with me coughing up blood. All I could do was break the peace around with screams of pain and agony. I as sitting there coughing up more blood that cover my shirt and a thought came to mind as sat there... Am I going to die..?

As I started to pass out again from the pain becoming over whelming, voices start coming from some bushes behind me. As I lay there I tried to hear what the voices were saying but could not make out what they were saying. Though right before I passed out, my eyes saw what looked like a pair of... colorful.... ponies coming from the bush.

----------------------------------------Silver Light--------------------------------------------

"Huh? Did you hear that, Corporal Silver Light?" spoke a white color Pegasus mare with a light green mane. "It sounded like a scream or something coming from somewhere over near that open field."

"Uhh.. what? No I did not... you know how unicorns can not hear as good as Pegasus like yourself. So, why bother asking me?" I replied while looking up at the Pegasus floating above. Silver Light was a silver color unicorn mare with a black mane. "Though we should better go check it out since we are out on patrol, Sergeant Serenity Wing."

Serenity flew over to where she believe the screams came from while Silver Light struggled to keep up since unicorns were the ones who lacked the most out of the three races when it came to physical abilities. Serenity stop where she believe the scream came from and started looking for anything hurt or any signs where the pony or creature could be... they were interrupted by another scream. It came from the other side of some bushes besides them. The pair rush over to finally find the source of the screams.

"Woah, look at that human. Poor thing looks like its pretty messed up with all the blood covering it. Can you do anything for it, Corporal? Serenity asked who landed and is now standing over the human while looking at it as her heart seemed to be go out for the human in pain.

"Yeah, I'll start applying first-aid and check to see if this human has been marked by any pony at all." Silver said as her horn glowed white as she scan the human for damages to its body.

With her training as a medic in the Equestrian Military and some training on basic human anatomy she was able to successfully meld the broken bones in the right leg together as well as the broken bones in his rib cage. Scanning up to the neck she found a chipped bone had cause some damage to his voice box and fixed the chip bone and had done her best to fix the voice box in his throat. Doing another scan of the human and feeling like everything was fixed she look back up to her sergeant who was currently checking his body for any markings of ownership since Silver got busy with the first aid.

"He seemed to be pretty messed up but nothing to serious. Just a bunch of broken bones in his leg, rib cage, and a chipped bone in his throat. His voice box was damage some but I went ahead and fixed it the best I could though only reason I did that so in case he wakes up he not in pain. Its a shame these creatures are not very intelligent and can not speak like us ponies but they sure do make good... "pets"." Silver looked at the damage human with a frown wonder if someone had abuse it and left it out here to die.

"Heh... well they are good pets but they are pretty dumb creatures however they are able to be taught how to do certain jobs but that takes a skill trainer with A LOT of patience. Either way hopefully the poor thing will be ok once we get him back and report to the lieutenant. She will most likely will make us take him over to the human shelter back in Canterlot since there seems to be no mark of a owner on him anywhere."

"Roger that, Sergeant. Lead the way." I replied as I lifted the human in the air and hovered him along with us.

After about 40 or so minutes of walking we were entering Canterlot. After reporting back in with our Lieutenant about finding the injured human we were order to take him over to the Human Shelter like the sergeant said she would make us do.

As we walk through the busy streets of Canterlot, we sure were getting a lot of looks of different sorts from the ponies as we past them by. They would stare in wonder, look at the human in disgust, sympathy or even with some weird looks of lust. There were even some ponies that stop us asking about the human and if they could just take the human off our hands while they were walking their own humans around. Faust how I hated Canterlot with all these ponies who were either snobs, stuck up, ignorant, or had this sense that they were above every pony else. I gladly told off anypony, with great pleasure, who tried to bribe or command us to give the human over to them like it was their right... yeah... the sergeant had to drag me away a bunch of times when they would not leave us alone.

After being drag away for the fourth time by the sergeant, we were starting to get close to the Human Shelter near the palace. From our current location, the Human Shelter was just on the other side of the palace from us. As the sergeant rolled my eyes at me and continue walking after letting me go, that was when I started hearing noise come from behind me. Confused, I looked over to see that the human was starting to wake up and move around in my magic hold.

"Uh, Sergeant... the human appears to be waking up." I said with some fear behind it. "I wont be able to carry it if it starts freaking out."

"Well, go ahead and let it down so we can tie it up before it attempts to escape since we do not know if its domesticated or wild." Serenity reply as she was pulling rope out with her wing from her pack on her back.

Following my sergeant command I gently set the human back down and went to grab a hold of him so that I could keep him in place while Serenity tied him up. Though the human sat up and took one look at me then at Serenity as I approach him. He seemed to panic once he saw her coming up to him with the rope as he jumped up and started to make a break for it. I attempt to catch him with my magic again but he slammed into me knocking me off my hooves and onto my side. He some how dodge Serenity grabbing him and push her out of his way as he rush off towards a entrance way that lead..... towards the palace. "Awww fuck...get back here dammit!" I yelled at the human as I got back on my hooves to chase after him.

-----------------------------------------Human-----------------------------------------------

Ughhh.... opening my eyes I notice that I was surrounded by a white aura but my mind did not let it sink in enough to notice. My mind was focus on remembering about all the pain I was in before but right now I felt better somehow. As I attempt to move my right leg and breath in I felt sore but surprising enough I did not feel like anything was broken. As I started to wake up more I felt myself laying on the ground and the white aura around me disappear.

Confused I sat up to see what was going on as I looked up at a silver color pony who was walking towards me as I gave it no thought thinking it was just wondering about like all animals act.. right? Well, as my eyes keep moving on to see what was around me I landed on another pony who was white with a light green mane. Huh... a pony with a light green mane... odd and that has... wings and grabbing rope with its wings from its bag on its back... I just stared at the Pegasus for a moment then my mind finally working at full power.

WHAT? A Pegasus is doing what? I focused on the Pegasus who was now coming towards me with the rope. What the hell? Are these ponies going to eat me or capture me or something? Screw this crazy shit... I am OUT!

As those thoughts ran through my mind, I stood up and made a break for it as the silver pony who I now notice had a horn was starting to light up with some white aura. Ignoring why I am seeing a unicorn in front of me, I decided to just slam my self past the pony which end up knocking it down. The Pegasus drop the rope and took a stance to prepare itself to lunge at me as its wings extend open. It tried to lunge and grab me (I think), but with a simple side stepping and slamming my weight into it as it past me by made it fall onto the ground.

I looked around me to find that there were even more ponies roaming around in what seem like a street.

Wait... where the hell am I? I looked around me to find myself in some sort of city with loads of ponies but I notice something else that sent chills down my spine and creep me out... there were also humans here but some were in their birthday suits just letting everything out while others were in some clothing. The more troubling thing is that they had collars on them with leaches attached to them being walked around like dogs or slaves by the ponies. I freaked out as I saw the two ponies I knocked down starting to get back up behind me.

They mean to make me some sort of house pet or slave? I can not let this happen... I must escape from these ponies! I just turned around and started running when I saw a huge wall with what seemed like a palace behind it.

What the flipping hell!!!! Am I in the capital or something? Wait... if I am... maybe their ruler lives there. You know what... I will just go try and speak with this ruler of theirs... though if this pony does not listen to me... welllllll... hopefully something will come to mind by then. I heard more movement behind me and turned to see more guards rushing in my direction behind the two ponies I knocked down.

Guess this plan going to have to do as I am out of time... time to find out how their leader is like. I rush past two guards that were guarding a gate that seemed to lead through the huge wall and into the courtyard of the palace.

As I was just entering the courtyard, I heard a voice yelling behind me "..get back here dammit!"... I froze and looked around seeing the unicorn yelling at at me.

These ponies can... talk...? WHAT? I saw the two guards rushing towards me that I had just ran past and decided to let what seemed like "talking intelligent ponies" to sink in later as I brought my attention on finding their ruler.

As I was running I found what seem like the main building of the palace and decide to check that out first. Running up the stairs I looked behind to see loads of guards, the unicorn, and Pegasus trying to capture me still. I heard the unicorn yelling something at me again but really did not focus on what it was saying as I focus on the fact on the mood it seemed to be in which was PISSED OFF.

Shit shit shit shit.... move faster legs please do not fail me now!

Running up the stairs, I heard a voice yell in front of me really LOUD "What is the meaning of all of this noise!" Before I could focus in front of me I slam into what I guess the voice had just came from and fell on my ass.

I looked up to see two huge ponies looking down at me. They both had huge wings and horns with each wearing what looked like crowds or tiaras. The smaller of the two was this navy- blue color pony that had what looked like a white moon on her flank and the more scarier part was her long mane and even her tail looked like a star filled night just flowing into an imaginary breeze as it gave physics the middle finger. The taller one was a white pony that seemed to have a huge sun on her flank with her long flowing mane and tail had mixed color of blue, green, purple, and pink. It reminded me of one of those kid brand yogurts with how it would look though I am not sure why I thought of this. The worst of all was the feeling of power that emitted from the pair as I stared up at them. I sat there frozen with fear as the two gazed down at me.. studying me. I decided to get up and talk to these two are these seemed to be the rulers I was looking for and sure enough as I looked behind me all the ponies were bowing before these two so I must of found the right ponies.

The smaller one spoke first as she turn to the bigger one "It seems like these guards of yours are pretty worthless if they let a human out smart them sister." Wait so these two are sisters huh.. makes sense.

The taller sister just seemed to smile at her sister and looked at her guards before speaking "So, does any pony know what the meaning of all this is?"

"I do, Princess Celestia. We found this human outside of Canterlot in pretty bad shape and we were on our way to bring him to the Human Shelter. Unfortunately, as he came to.. we were in the process of attempting to tie him up but when he took a looked at me coming at him with rope... he kindaaaa.. freaked out and ran away from us which him ending up here." said the Pegasus.

"Ahh, Sergeant Serenity, nice to see you again my little pony. It would seem this human caused you quiet the trouble. So, if you were taking this human to the human shelter then I am guessing he has no owner? Am I correct?" Celestia asked.

"That is correct, Princess. Sorry to have disturbed you with such a minor thing." Serenity said still bowing before the Princess.

"That is quiet alright, Sergeant, no harm done. Just..." Celestia was saying before she was cut off by another voice. As I pick this moment to act now seeing as if I did not I would be brought to this "Human Shelter" which did not sound all that pleasing to me.

"Err, Princess Celestia is it? May I speak with you?" I was going to keep talking but I hear some of the ponies gasp and Princess Celestia and her sister just staring at me with a surprised look on their face. I looked around and saw all the confused looks I was being given as I just raised an eyebrow and fling my arms in a confused manner.

"What?"

Chapter 2 - Unfortunate Outcome [Edited]

As confusion continue to fill the air around me, I waited for some response from one of the ponies... to only be given odd stares.

That Pegasus... what did Celestia call her... oh right... Serenity was starting to whisper to that silver unicorn that.. errrm.. huh... she (guessing the Pegasus is female due to the feminine voice) was with before.

As the thought of "talking intelligent ponies" came back into my mind, I started to ponder on the issue some more. Seeing as I have never came across a Pegasus or Unicorn before and only heard about them from legends/myths.... Hmmm... I believe that anything about them could be incorrect if I just base them like ponies that I had seen before on my world.

Wait... thats another thing to figure out... where the hell am I? Taking into account with everything that I notice and observed so far along with never hearing anything like this on Earth... uhh.. oh god.. that would mean... Fuck.....

Just the thought that I was no longer in the world I knew hit me hard. I begin to start to freak out due to being surround by a bunch of mythical creatures, ponies who also seem like ponies from Earth, but had the ability to talk and were intelligent. THEN there these two huge errrm.. ponies.. that had wings, a horn, and freaking tower over all the other creatures around them and meet my height. All of a sudden it just became too much and I guess my still sore injuries body along with all the "surprises"... I started to feel like passing out, but I was snap out of it when Celestia started to speak.

With a look of doubt and uncertainty still on her face, she snap out of her shock (from the look of it) and turn her attention back to her subjects. "It would seem that there will be no need to take him to the human shelter anymore, Sergeant Serenity. Guards, you may go return to your post. Serenity and Silver, you are coming with me." She turn her focus back on me and stare for a couple seconds before speaking. "It would seem we both have something to talk about, my dear human. Please, follow me."

As I made sure Serenity and... guessing the unicorn name is Silver... were not going to cause me any harm or troubles I waited for them to walk up the staircase and walk... wait or would it be trot.. meh, dont care atm... until they walked past. They both looked like they wanted to say something as they stop in front of me but I guess they decided against it as they went to follow Celestia and her sister. As I watch the group enter the palace, I took a step forward to follow them, but I started to hesitate as my head was yelling at me not to follow. My mind, however, was put at ease when I looked at Celestia who look behind her and flash me a smile. With a heavy sigh and one last glance at the courtyard and the city, I followed the ponies inside of the palace unsure of what the outcome to be.

--------------------------------------Discord---------------------------------------

I watch the human whom I had created and place into this world follow Celestia and Luna along with those two other ponies into the palace. I can not help but just grin as I awaited the result of how my little prank on Celestia would turn out. Just watching the other ponies react to a intelligent talking human was fun and all... but it was not what I wanted. The start of my masterpiece was just that simple look of shock and confusion on Celestia face. She most likely will figure out who is behind this but it will be worth it. Celestia... you have always been too easy to mess with. I can not wait until you summon on me so that I can see what you will decide to do with the human as my masterpiece continues.

--------------------------------------Human------------------------------------------

As we walked the huge main hallway in silence, I was amazed at the artwork of paintings that were on the walls, the statues that had amazing detail to them, and just the beauty of the design of the walls... it made me wonder how the heck these ponies were able to construct all of this. We took a turn down a smaller hallway but big enough to have another huge pony that could fit in the space between the two huge ponies walking side by side as we walked down the hall. It was a bit nerve racking just watching the two sisters and the other two whispering between themselves as they would take a couple glances back at me.

Seeing I would have time to myself, I let my eyes wonder to whatever attracted my attention since they were not going to say anything to me until we got to our destination. There was this really nice garden outside the window that was a pretty decent size filled with all different type of plants and a decent amount of different animals living there. As we made a turn down another hallway which actual lead into the palace and with the garden no longer catching my attention, I try to take quick glances into the different rooms that had the door cracked or open enough to see in. There were a couple of what look like bedrooms with a huge king size bed with some furniture, decorations, and a fireplace in each of those. Each bedroom being pretty much the same as the one before it. There was another room that looked like a spa with a pool, hot spring, and other stuff... as I look I could not make out everything as there was a lot of steam filling the room up and I only got a couple second glance as we past it by. However, I took note of there was no steam escaping the room even though the door was wide open... but then again that seem minor when compared to the different mystical creatures in front of me that could talk and were intelligent.

A couple minutes later we were passing by what look to be a dinning room with this huge dinning table taking center stage of the room on top of a blue carpet with a nice red velvet cloth on top as it had candle lights and different plants decorating the table. There was a fireplace on the other side of the room with a huge picture of some pony with torches lining the walls. What struck me as odd and made me stop to look at the room more was the dinning chairs that look like chairs from my world.

Ok, seriously? Now that is just odd since I cannot picture any of these ponies being comfortable sitting in it like a human. I just stared into the room as I attempt to figure out how they would be comfortable in those seats. Well, maybe if they just sat on their butts they would be.... I was cut off my train of thought when I heard a voice speak behind me.

"Are thou enjoying the views?"

I let out a gasp as I jumped forward a bit and turned around to see what scared me half to death to see the younger sister looking at me. I let out a sigh of relief as I put a hand over my chest as I saw her seem to giggle a bit. "Yes, you all have a beautiful palace here."

"Yes, it is very beautiful... Does thou have a name or shall we keep referring to you as Human?" She said as she looked around herself. She had a small smile as she finished her question as she brought her attention back on me.

"Heh, yes I have a name which is Austin. Seeing as I gave you mine... may I inquire yours Princess?" She motion us to continue walking to keep up with the others while staying with me.

"Our name is, Luna. Nice to meet you, Austin."

"Nice to meet you as well, Princess Luna." She gave me a smile as we kept on walking in silence following the others who were whispering among their selves though I paid them little of my attention as I was fascinated by the mane of Luna. After staring at it for a couple minutes as we walk, she seemed to take notice as she looked at me with an eyebrow raise in confusion.

"What are thou staring at, Austin?"

"Oh sorry my bad, Princess Luna but I was kinda of memorized by your mane looking like a calm brightly star night. Is this normal for ponies to have their mane looking like this?"

She gave me this confused look at me for a minute before bursting out with laughter. The others took notice at her laughing but kept on going with their own conversation as we kept on walking. I was completely confused on why she found it so funny.

"What is so funny about what I said?"

"Oh, sorry we do not mean to laugh but to answer your question, no it is not normal. My mane is like this as we are the Princess of the night." she said as she try to calm herself down from her laughter.

I just gave her a blank stare as we were walking. .......Wait what...Princess of the night......what? Though before I could give it any more thought, we all enter into a decent size room with a round table with 12 seats with some furniture filling the side of the room with some art and plants decorating the room along with a fireplace. As I notice everyone taking a seat at the table, I went ahead and took one as well.

I look at the four ponies who sat on the other side of me. I just sat in silence as Luna and Celestia were whispering with each other. Serenity and Silver just kept their eyes on me as I guess were just waiting on the the sisters to start the conversation. I looked at Luna while trying to figure out how what her title meant. To be honest, an image (out of no where) of a girl being princess of the night as some goth wearing all black with black eye liner, lipstick, and even black nails who enjoy being awake only during the night and being a very anti-social person. I took another look at Luna and as I picture her as this... I had to quickly cover my mouth and tired my best not to start laughing at the image that was currently in my mind. I received strange looks from both Serenity and Silver though the two sisters seem to not notice at all.

Calm down, Austin. You are in front of royalty and its best not to make yourself look bad. Heck, who knows what these ponies are going to do with you. They seem to be like honorable folks but this seems to be a different culture, for sure, and could be a different world for all I know. Who knows what could be consider as an insult or what might set them off. They seem to be interested in me... though I am not sure why. If what I saw correctly there are humans here...

The image of seeing humans being completely naked as others being dressed while being walked around with collars and leaches by these ponies came back into my mind.

Yeah.. what was up with the way those humans walked? They seem to either walk on their hands and feet or if they walked on their two feet they were slouching over to the point it they looked like how the the character from 'Hunchback of Norte Dame' walk. To be honest they almost remind of what humans look like as caveman. They were really hairy and none of them spoke or seem to communicated in any way. So, I guess that would explain all of those looks I got when I spoke earlier assuming that humans here are dumb and unable to speak. Course, why were they being treated like pets or slaves...

That was an odd sight to behold. Though how would a pony be able to even hold those leaches... wait.. no.... that is not right... the end was not being hold by the ponies but there was some sort of odd color aura around it that seem to be holding it. There seem to be something odd with those unicorns as well... their horns seem to be the same color aura around it as the end of the leaches. Can that be some sort of magic? If I recall correctly when I came back to I was completely surrounded by an aura like that as well and before I knocked silver over her horn seemed to be lighting up with that same color aura. I was snap out of my thoughts as I heard Celestia clear her throat.

"So....your name is Austin, correct?"

"Yes it is, Princess Celestia." Though as I responded, she seem to in a bit of a shock again.

"So, where exactly am I currently? Are we on Earth still?" All I got was a bunch of confused looks. "Well, with those looks that you are all giving me... that would be a no if I ever knew it." With it being confirmed that I was gone from my world, I look down and a feeling of lost and depression took over my body. I do not know why I felt this way as I pretty much knew this fact already and I really had nothing precious back on Earth anyways besides worldly processions as I was a bit of a loner. I just let the feeling pass as I let out a sigh as I looked back at the ponies who were staring at me with a mixture of shock and concern. "So, where am I then?"

"Well, you are in the country of Equestria." Celestia spoke up. "With what you are saying, I am going to guess that you are not from this world?"

"No, I would guess not after all that I have seen of your world and those who inhabit it."

"What is it that you have seen that would make you believe that you are not from this so called "Earth"?" Celestia asked with some curiosity behind her voice.

"Well, for starters we do not have actual magic like spells and stuff on our world as it only exist in made up fantasy. Unicorns and Pegasus are things of fairy tales, myths, and legends as well. Also, there is a pretty noticeable difference in how I look and how humans look here." I stop for a second and spoke up again to "as well as how humans here... are treated like some sort of.... pet.... or slave..." With the last part that I said, they all were taken back by it and none of them could look at me directly as they had guilty expression on their faces. "Also, with how you all reacted when I first spoke, it would seem that you never heard a human talk before or dealt with a human that was intelligent?"

"No, you are correct as you are the first intelligent human that could talk that we have dealt with. It also seems like you have seen and notice a lot. As to do with the humans here in Equestria and the rest of the world, they have been here since the start of our world. Over time they have had been use or treated differently by the different races on our world. For example, Griffins use humans are a source of food. Here in Equestria on the other hoof, ponies keep humans as pets mostly but we also use them for different jobs or task. It has been this way for thousands of years. Which is why you saw them like you did."

"Oh well, that would explain that then.. but you said there are griffins here as well? Gez, next thing you know you will say there are minotaurs, dragons, and other mythical creatures as well..." I sarcastically spoke as I took a mental note to stay away from griffins. Celestia seem to be taken back a bit by my sarcasm. The room feel silent for a couple minutes.

"Actually, yes, there are minotaurs and dragons here on this world." Luna spoke up.

"Oh well, I guess, I better assume any sort of creature that I know to be mythical or from legends to exist here..." I said with some fear behind it.

"I guess that would be a good idea. Anyways... I would like to know more about how it is that you ended up here, Austin." Celestia said as they all lean in on the edge of their seat as they waited for my answer with bated breath.

"Well, I am not sure how I got here... all I remember was at one moment I was on my world trying to get into my car after just finishing college. I locked myself out of the car by leaving the key inside of it so I tried to call the police to help me out and before I realized it I was being surround by darkness. When I completely pulled into the darkness.. I heard a voice say something to me but I forget what it was but I remember seeing these yellow eyes with red pupils looking at me before I passed out and next thing I knew it I was in this world found by these two here.. I think." I pointed at Serenity and Silver but Celestia and Luna were staring at each other with what seem like pissed off look and in unison they both said "Discord!".

"Uh, who is Discord?" I asked scared as I looked at the two pissed off sisters. Celestia did not answer as I saw her starting to cast a spell it seemed like. Silver and Serenity both jump out of their seats and seem to prepare for something to appear.

Luna look at me as she calm down and responded "He is a creature of chaos, a Draconequus and the only creature we know to have yellow eyes with red pupils who would have the ability to pull something like this off." As she finish a flash filled the room to eventually reveal a creature that appear as the flash vanished. Before I could react more, the strange creature was floating above us appearing to be wearing sunglasses and reading a book. I jump back as I freaked out by the sight of the creature which ended up making me fall out of my seat onto my ass while my eyes never let the sight of this creature out of sight.

WHAT.... in the fucking hell..... is that thing?

Chapter 3 - Discord

------------------------------------Princess Celestia-------------------------------------------

"Discord, you seem to have some explaining to do." I said with annoyance in my voice.

"Oh my, Princess Celestia. How rude of you, to first interrupt my reading time by summoning me here and then greeting me with such a tone." Discord said as he made his book and glasses disappear and with a poof, he appear into a seat at the table.

"Spare me, Discord. I would like for you to explain why this intelligent talking human is here." I was not in the mood to deal with his usual antics and wanted to know what he was up to.

"Oh, I see no human here. I only see a unicorn, a Pegasus, you, and oh my, it seems like your little jealous sister, Luna, is finally back from her 1000 year vacation from the moon."

"How dare thou speak as such, thinking it be thy fault when it was thou who cast your chaotic magic that made we into that monster! If be not for thine sister, I would cast thee back into stone!" Luna scream with her royal canterlot voice. An aura of anger and pain seem to just flow from Luna as she scream. Every pony in the room seem to just back away as she was screaming even Discord.

Before Luna became too angry to stop herself from trying something against Discord, I brought one of my wings around Luna and looked at her with a smile. "Shhh, its ok, my dear sister." Luna started to cry as she bury her face into my chest. As I return the hug, I heard Discord start to talk again..."Awww, Isnt that..."

I stop him when I gave him a mean glare. "I'd watch what you say before I turn you back into a stone statue!"

"Ugh... fine."

As I held my sister, I saw Austin stand up and sit back into his chair. He seemed to be staring at Discord who seem to be ignoring him on purpose. I sigh as I started to calm myself as well, I look back at Discord.

"Now let us just skip your little playtime where you would knowingly denied any responsibility for the human here and explain yourself as I seem to be running dry on my patience with you. What is your reason for bring Austin into this world, Discord?"

"Tssk... you just got to ruin my fun, Celestia. Well fine but do you not enjoy my creation that I made for you?" Discord said with a huge grin.

Did he just said creation? Does he not know that Austin is from another world? If that is true, it would seem that he still is unable to fully control his chaos magic even after thousand of years of having it... I was about to question him about it when Austin beat me to it.

"What do you mean creation? You did not create me. You stole me from my own world and force me into this world!" Austin said with anger behind his voice.

As I watch Discord reaction to what Austin had said to him, he quickly turn his attention over to him with a face of shock. So.. my theory is true then.

"What.... that is not possible. You are exactly as I envision you to be to the detail. Same color hair, skin, and eyes. Your shape and size is the same. There no way that I summon you." Discord said with an ounce of annoyance in his voice. "There is no way that you can prove otherwise."

Chaos magic is as a double edge sword. Yes... it pretty much has the ability to do anything that one can think of but at the same time it does have a mind of its own. Which is why Chaos magic is illegal expectantly after the last pony who used it. Discord most likely made a image in his mind of how the human look and made sure that he was intelligent and could speak. Of course, his reason must be to only entertain himself but apparently his magic had plans of it own... it would not be the first time he could not control his magic but then again making him believe that is impossible unless some how proving it.

"If you want proof then just look at these pictures then!" Austin said as he pulled an odd device from his pocket. We were all shocked as he showed Discord different pictures from his own world from his odd device. Though this only cause Discord to start bursting into laughter.

"What is so funny, Discord? You seem to still not to be able to fully control your magic even after all of this time." I said smugly. He kept on laughing as look at us multiple time expecting a reason from one of us on why he is laughing. When none of us answered him, he had a huge grin on his face.

"Tssk..Even if I may still not be able to control my magic..." he said with some annoyance in his voice "however.... you all seem to be missing out on what this means."

"What are you trying to say, Discord?" I said as I raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"Well, if it was the magic and not me who summon him... then that just means he is stuck here! You know as well as I this to be true, Celestia. I was his last hope when you called on me. This is just so much better then I had plan! " Discord said smugly.

Well, that the issue with chaos magic. Since it was the magic acting on its own and not Discord then he does not know where it is he summon him from... and since it was the magic doing it on its own and it being the reason that Austin is here... there is no way that it will send him back. I turn my attention onto Austin as all emotion left his face as he blankly stare at Discord. I felt bad for him as not only did he only recently figure out that he has been yank from his world but the one sign of hope to be able to send him back home has been slam in his face before he even started to think about it.

"Well, since your reason for calling me here is no longer valid... I shall be taking my leave." Discord said as he poof out of his seat and into the air with a suitcase in one hand and was put on his sunglasses again with the other.

"You still have not explain your reasoning for bring him here, Discord. What are you planning?"

"Oh well now... it is still to early to reveal my masterpiece yet as it is only in the very beginning stages, my dear Celestia. Though do not fret over it as for the human here is nothing but a piece that I place onto the chess board of things on your side, Celestia. So, you do not have to worry about him. I have, however, enjoy seeing your reaction to this though and we should do this again as it was fun... for me. Adieu!" And with a snap of a finger, Discord was gone in a flash.

"Finally he gone... this does not sound very good, Princess Celestia. Sounds like Discord has things in store for us in the future." Serenity said as she took a less aggressive stance as Silver let out a sigh of relief. I turn to Serenity and as I look at her, I thought over everything that had been said.

"It would seem so, Serenity. Though I am not sure what he has plan for us but it would seem as in the case of Austin here... unfortunately.. Discord is right about him being stuck here." I said as I turn to look to see what the state Austin seem to be in at the moment. He had his elbows on the table with his head lower into his hands as he seem to be looking at a picture on his odd device. I felt my heart ache for him as he did not move and just seem to be a broken mess at that moment. I turn to look at Luna who had now seem to be her normal self and staring at Austin. She eventually look up at me with a worry look and asked "So, what is to become of Austin now?". I took another glance at Austin and replied " I'm not sure, Sister. Let us see how he is taking this situation first." I turned my attention back over at Austin who mood had not change nor had move an inch.

"Austin?" I asked. He seemed to not hear me as he kept his attention locked onto the picture on his device.

"Austin?" I called out again...

------------------------------------------Austin-----------------------------------

What Discord had said was echoing in my head. I had just found out 100% that I was no longer on Earth. Though before I could even think about a way to return to Earth... it seem like the hand of destiny came forth and bitch slap me as it slam the door that lead back to earth in my face. Just to only have the door burst into flames as the ashes were blown away. Sure, I did not have very much of a life back on Earth but I just work my butt off to get through college to change all that. A thought came to mind that there were these magical creatures in front of me. Yeah, of course maybe they could use their magic and for all I know... Discord could be lying out of his teeth. I heard the other ponies in the middle of a discussion. As I wanted to know what they were saying to each other... I listen in... "but it would seem as in the case of Austin here... unfortunately.. Discord is right about him being stuck here." I heard Celestia said.

...............Fate you are cruel to me.

I focus on the picture of my parents in front of me. Memories of years past seem to flash of my time on Earth. Well, I guess it is better to know now then only to waste time with the hope I might be able to return later on to find out that it is simply impossible. I will have to just accept my situation as I have been dealt with and move on. My parents "saying of wisdom" (they would call it) flew into my mind "We just want you to be able to live life to the fullest, never to have any regrets, to do what you want to do that makes you happy and smile, and above all else do what allows me to just be myself.". It seem to comfort me some, as it made me smile as I stare at their picture for the last time. To make things easier with living here I wanted to get rid of anything that remind me of home. As I use my right hand to turn off my phone, I had my head laying on my left hand as I look at my parents smiling faces for the last time while the phone went through the process of power off. I let out a small sigh as the phone turn off....

"AUSTIN! Are thou ok?" Luna voice boom as she use her royal canterlot voice. I jump back in my seat almost flipping the chair on the back only to have some luck as I caught the table with my left hand to pull my self forward while I grab my chest with my right hand. I was breathing pretty hard as loads of adrenaline was pumping through my body. I looked up at Luna and just let out a heavy sigh.

"Besides almost suffering a heart attack, I believe I am ok... though I rather you all not use that overly loud voice to get my attention again." I saw all four ponies staring at me with concern expression on their faces.

"We are sorry to have scared you but you were ignoring our sister as she was calling out your name." Luna said.

"Oh... my bad, Princess Celestia. I was just thinking about what to do since it would seem that fate has wanted me to be here." I said as I started to look back at my phone again.

"Oh please do not apologize, Austin. So, what is it that you have decided to do with your current situation?"

"Well, to simply see what fate would have in store and play with the hand I have been dealt with. Looking on the bright side, no human from Earth has ever had a chance to be in the place like this that would seem to be out of a fantasy book. If I heard Discord right, it would also seem that you all are going to be facing some troubles ahead and I would like to help in anyway possible. I would not mind getting back at Discord as well." I said as I gave them a smile. "If I am going to be able to live here happy though I am going to have to get rid of anything that reminds me of what would be my past life." I grab my phone and stared at it again before I look back the ponies in the room. "So, which mean I will have to destroy this."

"Wait, if you want to dispose of it maybe we can take it to study it. It could provide useful to us in some sort of way." Celestia said as she had her eye on my phone. "I would also like to learn what I can of Humans from this planet called "Earth" as well."

"Sure, knock yourself out." I said as I slid my phone over to Celestia. She grab a hold of it with her magic as she turn her attention to Serenity and Silver and gave the phone to Silver.

"If you two could take this and give it to... her... down in the labs here in the palace and inform her of Austin as well. Also, make sure she does not break it like the stone tablet that we found before."

In unison both the ponies saluted Celestia and reply with "Yes, Princess Celestia!" before they left the the room with the phone in tow. When Celestia saw that they were gone, she turn back at me. "So, what was your world like, Austin? How was your world humans structure?"

I was a bit confused with what she was trying to ask... "Well, the world I came from can be a pretty nice place but at the same time it is a dark and cruel place to live in. Countries were always going to war with each other throughout our history. I am not sure how humans are exactly like here but war was a big issues on Earth. There are humans who have a heart of a saint that would do anything for a fellow human but at the same time there humans who are just evil at heart. Why do you ask?"

"Hmm, well how was your life on Earth if I may ask?"

"Well, it has not been too bad as I had a decent childhood and even my teens years were alright. It was hard after High School when my parents both died in a car crash but I manage to move on and achieve a goal of getting two bachelor degree from College." I looked at Celestia with a eyebrow raise as I tried to figure out what she was getting at.

"Hmm, well you seem to process a strong will to get past something like that." Celestia started to look at me as to try and read me like some book. She started whispering with Luna as they held some sort of conversation for a minute before they turn their attention back onto me.

"Well, Austin, you seem to have proper manners as you had been addressing us properly. As well you seem to have a good look on life and a good heart. I believe I can trust you..." She stop and not only did her facial expression but her body gave this serious look as this intimidating aura of power came off her before she finish. "...though I must warn you that if you hurt any of my subjects in any way without them threatening you or being in a life or death situation... you will be be dealing with me and I will warn you now that is not in your best interests. Do I make myself crystal clear?"

I had slouch in my seat to hide myself when her attitude changed as I stared at her. Like hell I would hurt anyone in the first place, but there no way in hell I would fuck with this creature who had an aura that seem like it would come off from a god. As I sat back up in my chair I gave her my answer "Yes, Princess Celestia, you have made yourself very... clear. I would like for you to know that I would never in my life hurt any of your subject. My morals that I stand by is actually that I would do anything to protect them. I would do anything to protect those who were unable to defend their selves. I know that my parents would be disappointed in me if I did anything less then that."

"Good. I am glad to hear that." She said as she gave me a smile.

"So, what happens to me now?" I ask. Her smile seem to fade which I did take comfort to see as I look at Luna who had the same expression of worry on her face as her sister.

"Well... for now I think it best that you stay here in the palace."

"Ok... but may I ask why? You all seem to be worried about something that has to deal with me after I ask that. I can see it written on your faces." They both looked at each other and nodded before turning back to me.

"Well, as you know... you are the first intelligent talking human in the world. That does not change the fact that you are human and humans are treated as pets and even as possessions here in Equestria."

"Yeah I got a glimpse of that but what exactly happens to humans here in this country? How could it affect me?" Celestia and Luna started to whisper between themselves again before Celestia answer me.

"Well, humans are usually treated with love and taken good care of. Though at the same time they are also used to help on farms and other jobs but treated fairly and still taken good care of. There are some things you might not like though as they are also use to.... help release certain...stress... or urges that ponies have." As Celestia started to blush and cough as she finish that statement. Luna was looking away from both me and Celestia as her face was red.

"What do you mean certain stress or urg...." I stop as I saw both of the looks they had... "Oh...Oooooohhhhh..." I started to go red as I realized what Celestia meant and was trying to say.

"Anyways... that is not the only thing. There are even worse things that happen to humans here over the years... they have been used as sacrifices in some occults, force to fight each other to the death in illegal gambling rings, they have been the target of murders, worked as slaves until they die, are even stolen from their owners to be sold illegally, and in some cases are used as a source of food but that barely ever occurs here in Equestia since ponies do not eat living creatures." Celestia sighed before continuing. "Though these sort of things do not occur very often... they unfortunately still do occur. I am sure that there are going to be ponies who would want to have you since you are a intelligent human to fulfill their own selfish reasons. There is also the reason Discord wanted some thing like you to exist in this world as well which I would like to avoid at this time and it could cause unknown effects in our world. Just to make thing easier on us for now, we will like to keep you a secret and have you stay here in the palace as we try to figure up what Discord is planning."

I just stared at Celestia as she explain about what can occur to humans here and at the end of it I had a feeling this was not just some nice little fantasy land with magical ponies and stuff. No... this place sounds like the same as Earth just with the dangerous mythical creatures mixed in as well. As she mention Discord name, I started to think about what all he had said before. He sure must have some sort of beef with Celestia and there seem to be some sort of history with her and Luna. I wonder if Celestia would explain it to me since I got mixed into this mess...

"So, Celestia... Discord seems to have some sort of beef with you to be going out of his way to be planning something big and there seems to be some history between you, Luna, and him. What is his deal anyways?" Celestia did not look at me and seem to be remembering some memory from her past. I look at Luna who was starting at her sister for a bit and she eventually turn her attention to me when she notice that Celestia was caught up in her thoughts.

"Well, Discord has been a thorn in our sight for many years. He is the reason why I turn into this monster and tried to destroy my sister whom did the only thing she could do and banish her little sister to the moon for 1000 years..." Luna started to go on but was stop short by me cutting in.

"Wait, hold up here... 1000 years? There no way you all could live for 1000 years... right?"

"Well, normal ponies, unicorns, and pegasus can not live that long, but me and my sister are not that if you have yet to notice. We are immortal creature in the sense that we can live forever unless something unnatural kills us. We are called Alicorns though the other two that exist will have extended lives they will not live forever like me and my sister as we got our powers from our parents who were the first Alicorns but past on their immorality to us when me and my sister were born.

"Oh, that clears up some things...anyways sorry to have cut you off. Please, continue your story."

"Where was I... oh right.. so... he turn me into that monster called Nightmare Moon and before that he use to rule Equestria with his chaos magic for a long time as he oppressed the ponies that lived here for a very long time before me and my sister put a stop to that. He even..." Luna stop as she seem to do her best to not cry as she continue. "... he killed our parents all those many years ago on purpose. Like I said before... if not for my sister I would turn him back to stone. He is a creature of chaos and has always been one and he just find enjoyment as he cause chaos around him. "

"Oh, I am sorry to hear that about your parents, Princess Luna." I said as I gave Luna a small smile. Celestia look up at Luna and then at me and let out a sigh as we both turn to look at her.

"That is actually not all true....Yes he did kill our parents but it was an accidental one and actually he use to be a unicorn before that unfortunate accident happen..." Celestia said. Luna look at her sister in shock.

"Wh...what... are you talking about, Sister? You never said anything about this before." Luna said as she shacked her head in disbelief.

"Well, you were to young to remember when it happen. I would of told you sooner but things kept on popping up that would distract me from telling you." Celestia said as she looked at her.

"Wait... you said he was a unicorn before... how did he turn into that errr...thing?" I asked just confused.

"It was back about a month before our parents died. Discord use to be a well known unicorn and was our parents top adviser. He stumble across the magic of chaos on accident one night. He started to become obsessed with learning everything he could with it but when our parents came to see him that fateful night... he lost control of the magic which killed our parents and is when he turn into that creature of chaos... into a Draconequus. He seem to slowly just lose his mind as I tired a couple of times back then to get through to him but to no avail. Over the years he just lost any memories of the time as a unicorn and only knows of his time as a Draconequus." Luna seemed to be at a lost of words for a while. The room feel silent until Luna finally spoke up.

"Thank you for finally telling this to us, Sister." Luna said as she gave Celestia a hug.

"So... what would be the plan now?" I spoke up after their little bonding moment.

"I will have to call for the other Princess to inform them of the current situation and I am sure they will want to meet you as well. Also, we will have Princess Twilight bring along her friends as well to inform them as well. After that..." Celestia was cut off when Serenity and Silver came back into the room. "Ah so they are back finally. Serenity and Silver do you still agree to what we discuss on our way here?" Celestia said as she turn her attention to them.

"Yes I do, Princess Celestia. I would most enjoy the assignment." Serenity said proudly.

"Good to hear and what about yourself, Silver?" Celestia look at Silver who was staring at me. She turn her attention back to Celestia and responded with "Yes, Princess Celestia. I have always wanted to learn more about humans and become better familiar with their anatomy, so that I could take better care of them."

As I had this look of confusion and worry on my face as I look at Celestia and attempt to speak.. "Whhhat.. d...d...does she mean... to become better... familiar... with human anatomy. She not... going to... cut me up.. is she?"

They all looked at each other and started to laugh as Celestia answer me "No... no. She not going to cut you up. She is a field doctor who has study basic human anatomy. She is the one who took care of you and heal you back up when these two found you. While we were walking to this room to talk, I was speaking to them about how they found you, how they heal you, what they experience, and if they would like to take on a certain assignment which is to be your personal guards which they have both agree to. Even though you will be inside the palace for the time being, they will take this time to get to know you and how to best do their jobs when the time comes that you go out into the world here."

"Oh... interesting. I never had bodyguards before." I started to like this idea and would make me less worried about being here if I had them to always back me up.

"Well as much as I would so love to continue this conversation and get to know you more, Austin. I do have to get back to my royal duties and inform the others of the situation at hand. I leave you in the hands of my sister and your guards." Celestia said as she got out of her chair and left the room.

I turn my attention over to Luna who hop out of her chair and went to talk to Serenity and Silver. After a minute had past, Serenity and Silver saluted Luna and left the room to do whatever Luna told them I assumed. As I got out of my seat and stood up, Luna lifted a hoof and wave at me to follow her.

"Let us go meet our adviser and top scientist when it comes to humans. I am sure she is dying to meet you and might be helpful that you teach her about that device of yours before she ends up breaking it."

Author's Note

Well, I learn one thing with this chapter is that I do not enjoy writing world building for long periods of time. I tired to make things as interesting as I could and I hope you are able to enjoy it.

I hope you all enjoy it and let me know how I did and your all thoughts on this chapter.

Chapter 4 - Dr. Human

Following Luna out of the room and down the way we came till I saw the garden area again and notice it seem to be getting dark outside. Luna was looking outside as well while we were walking and whispered under her breath "Looks like they have a rain or storm plan for later." I was confused on what she said and look outside to see Pegasus moving clouds around in the sky that look like rain clouds. I was just dumbfounded by the sight and must of had some sort of stupid look on my face as Luna seemed to take notice and spoke up.

"What the matter, Austin? Never seen Pegasus setup a storm before?" Luna asked as she giggle a bit at me.

"No, never seen that before. Nature took care of weather in my world. Weather just did its own thing and we had no control over it. Though I am guessing that is not the case here in this world?" I asked as I look back at Luna.

"Hmmm odd... you are right as the Pegasus have the magic to control weather and helps them fly. All the weather is control by them." Luna stated looking outside at the sky.

"Wait... so Pegasus have magic as well? Do... uhh... regular ponies who are not Pegasus or unicorns have magic of some sort as well?" I looked at Luna in shock as I asked.

"Actually yes, earth ponies as they are called have magic as well that make them work well with the earth and strength. It is not wise to pick a fight with a Earth Pony in a physical fight." Luna said as she continue to walk down the hall.

"Wow, I will keep that in mind. Hmmm... so all ponies here have some sort of magic in them. I wonder...." I said as I stared at my hands.

"Yes all ponies have magic in them but what is it that you are thinking of?" Luna said as she looked at me with curiosity as I stared at my hands.

I started to do anything from movies or books that was use or said to do magic. I brought my two hands forming a sphere in between them trying to make a fireball in between them.. "Fire! Firega! Fireball? Ka...me...ha...me...ha!" I said as I force my hands forwards hoping maybe something would shot out. Luna stood there with her head crooked giving me a dumb look.

"What are you trying to do?" Luna asked.

"I am seeing if I have any magic here. Hmmm... maybe I should try it Harry Potter style... I need a wand..." I looked outside and saw trees outside "... or a stick!" I ran to a door leading outside to the garden area outside. I ran and found a good size stick on the ground that had the same length of a wand I assumed. I picked it up and saw another stick I flicked the stick in my hand while aiming at the other stick hoping something would happen. Of course.... nothing happen and sighed as I drop the stick in my hand. Luna walked up to me while she giggled at my antics.

"You are most odd, Austin. Humans here do no have any magic of any sort here and I would assume you do not as well. Though it is most entertaining to watch..." Luna said as she giggle some more.

"Well, it was worth a shot at least. At least you got something enjoyable out of it and got to see me make a fool out of myself." Sighed and started to walk back inside.

"Yes, that I did. So, shall we continue to our destination?" Luna said as she followed me back inside and look at me with a smile.

"Yes, please let us keep moving before I continue to make more of a fool of myself. Please lead the way, Princess Luna."

"Ha ha, you can just refer to me as Luna when it is just the two of us since you are not from here."

"Well, if you insist. I do not wish to be rude or get thrown in prison for not addressing a person... errr pony of royalty properly." Luna looked back at me after I said that and gave me a confused look.

"What would make you assume that we would do such a thing to some pony?" Luna had stop and was staring at me while awaiting an answer.

"Oh... uhh.. well from where I am from even though the country I lived in did not have a Monarchy or a ruling class of some sort, there has been other countries that has had a ruler of some sort that would do that or even go farther to kill you for not addressing them correctly. This is a different culture and you are even a different species which I know nothing about with two of them who... heh... give off this aura of some sort of god or something. I rather not cause any trouble and I do enjoy living..." I said with some fear in my voice as I looked at Luna who had a serious look in her eye.

"Ha ha, well you do not need to worry about that here. We are not going to worry about simple about addressing us correctly or anything that is so trivial. You can relax around me and my sister as we will never harm you... as long as you do not cause us or our subjects harm." Luna said as she continue walking.

"Oh well that is great to know. I would never cause any of your subjects, you, or your sister harm. You have been nice to me and my morals & honor would never let me cause harm to another without a good reason which the only one would to be self-defense. I rather defend others from harm then to be the cause of it." Luna looked back and gave me a smile as she stop in front of some stairs leading downward.

"That is good to hear, Austin. Well, once we reach the bottom of these stairs and walk some more we shall arrive are her lab." Luna said as she stared walking down the stairs.

"So... who is this doctor anyways? What is she like?" I asked as my curiosity about this her got to me.

"Oh, she is pretty much the top researcher on humans in Equestria. Which we always are wanting to know more on the subject, my sister decided to give her a job working for her and I as the royal researcher on humans. She is pretty normal like any other pony for the most part. Though she is an odd one though when it comes to humans and takes it really seriously. So, do not be surprise if she... freaks out when you meet her."

"Well, this should be most... interesting I guess. I be fine as long as she does not try to cut me open or anything weird." I said as I thought how scientist on Earth would react to a new life form.

"Ha ha, do not worry, Austin. I am sure she would never do anything like that to you... while you are alive. I will be there with you to make sure she does not go overboard as well." Luna said as she gave me a reassuring smile.

"Heh... well if you are there....that shall put me more at ease then and will not worry too much about it as well." I said as I gave Luna a smile which she seem to blush a bit but could not really tell.

We finally arrived at the lab that had a sign labeling it as "Human studies & laboratory". I followed Luna into it as I looked around with some metal lab tables with two humans cut up with some different organs laying about. There was a bookcase on one side and a microscope and bunch of flasks and tubes with different chemicals and organs on the other side. There was also a lyre in the corner of the room as well. Though my focus was on the green unicorn with a lyre on her flank on both side with a blood stain lab coat... that was currently focus on messing with my smart phone... and she seemed to be pissed at it since she had a hammer grasp in her magic and was yelling at it before she heard us come in. As she looked at me, her eyes started to get really wide with each second with this odd grin on her face.... I was kinda scared for my life looking at her.

".........Nope" I said as I turned around to walk out. I was stop when a navy blue aura enveloped me and force me to face the room again.

"Come now, Austin. I said before that you will be fine." Luna whispered to me.

"It was worth a shot." I whispered back as the green pony finally snap out of her trance and was running over to me.

"Oh WOW! You are amazing. You are the intelligent human from another world that can talk right?" the green pony said.

"Yes... and you are...?" I said back as I started to back away to hide behind Luna. Luna seem to be enjoying the situation I was force in but did not move or say anything as she watch our interaction between the two of us.

"Oh, sorry how rude of me. I am Lyra Heartstrings or I am more known as simply Dr. Human. May I know your name?" Lyra said.

"Errr... yeah. Mine is Austin...." I replied. She did not seem to be all that crazy as I thought as I came out from hiding behind Luna. I reach my hand to give her a handshake....... bad mistake.

"Oh my just look at those hands. I must start with some basic tests and get some basic info on you, Austin!" Lyra said as she grasp my hand in her magic and pull me over to her work table. She pulled out a reflex hammer in her magic and tap my legs and started to write some stuff down.

"Hmm most interesting... I wonder..." Lyra got really up and close to my face and stared at my head before slamming the reflex hammer on my head really hard.

"Owww, what the hell was that for?" I yelled out as I started to rub my head where the pain was.

"Subject is able to react to pain...no aggression after first strike." She mumble to herself as I guess she wrote it down. She looked up at me and whacked me multiple more times with the hammer in different areas on my body and stared at me a couple more seconds.

"Seriously? Is that freaking necessary? Hit me again and I will take that damn hammer away from you." I said as I tried to protect myself with my arms.

"Subject is still for the most part calm after being strike after multiple times besides a regular human would strike after 1-2 times.... most interesting" Lyra kept on mumbling as she wrote more notes down and put the hammer down. She walked up to me and she pulled my shirt over my head and I felt her hoof run across my back and chest as she put her ear against my chest as well.

"Ahhh, seriously... Woah wait what are you doing..." I was starting to get uncomfortable with the situation as I tried to pull my shirt down but she had it stuck in place with her magic.

"Subject has little hair on chest... seems to be coming from the lower area as well as nipples. Heartbeat seems normal..." she stop for a moment before slowly sliding her hoof across my chest "Subject has a fit and sexy chest as well..." I could hear Luna started to giggle behind me as I could start to feel myself blush. Course it only got worse.... She yank my pants down and revealed my unmentionables for all to see. I felt her hoof run across my legs & my manhood and to just top it off...she ran behind me to smack my ass before letting my shirt drop to reveal my now brightly red blushing face.

"Subject seems to be able to show signs of embarrassment. Has a nice set of legs with another good size in between with a smack able ass." Lyra said while both her and Luna started to giggle. I quickly pull my clothes back on real quick as I gave Luna a "for real" stare. She just looked away while she blush and tried to hold in her laughter. My attention was brought back on Lyra as she yank me along with her over to her workstation with her magic where my phone was at.

"So, Austin... how does this contraption work? I just crossed my arms and gave her a annoyed stare.

"Oh come on it was not that bad. I am a Doctor after all... not like I do not see them all the time anyways." Lyra said as she rolled her eyes at me.

"Sigh.... uh-huh... well lets not do that again without my permission. Actually, I got a great idea... lets not ever do that again!" I stated with annoyance in it.

"Fine sorry it wont happen again..." Lyra said with a bored expression.

I just rolled my eyes and picked up my phone. "Now this is a phone or well a smart phone. This screen here in this area is the touchscreen and this is the security screen and simply just slide your finger from the middle to an edge to unlock it to get to the main menu. From the main menu you can open up different programs by clicking on these icons. This can play music, play games, communicate with others via talking or texting, taking pictures, or recording videos." After taking some pictures and recording a small video of Luna and Lyra and showing them it. Lyra snatches my phone out of my hand and starts messing around with it and goes into her own little world. I just look at Luna and she just gave me a shrug. Luna motions us to leave the lab after a couple fail attempts on trying to get Lyra attention. As we exit the lab, I start up a conversation after, hopefully, my only visit to that lab.

"Well, that was.... odd... to say the least. She is an unique pony... that is for sure. Though I would enjoy... not to be forcefully strip again..." I state while looking at Luna who starts to laugh as she looking away blushing a bit.

"Yes, I am most sorry for her actions though she was just curious on a intellectual level for the most part. Look on the bright side... she did not cut you up. Though I do wish I could of seen more of the phone functions.... I would of love to hear music from your world but once she gets into her own little world like that it is better just to let her at it." Luna said with a bit of a sad curious look on her face.

"Ha ha, I not going to lie... she look scary when I first saw her with a blood cover lab coat with two cut up human bodies as she was trying to slam a hammer into my phone while cussing at it. Like I said before... a unique pony for sure. Though I am sure once she gets done the phone, I can play some music on my phone. I got a wide selection of music on it that I am sure you will find something from it that you could enjoy. What type of music do you like mostly?"

"Well I have always enjoy classical music but being away from the world for a thousand years... and only been back for almost a year now... I have not really attempted to listen to any new type of music. " Luna ears drop as well as her head while she seem to stare off into her own little world. My heart ache for her pain and I do recall Discord mentioning something about a 1000 year vacation a while ago.

"So, you really were on the moon for a 1000 years?" I asked trying to get something about it from her. All she did was lift her head and give me a sad look before looking back down as we started walking back up the stairs. Yikes... seems to be a touche subject. Better just change the subject... "Well I could play you some classical music for you on the piano from my world if you want. Though I would need my phone back to get the correct notes and practice on the piano a bit since I am a bit rusty." I gave her a smile as I tried to cheer her up. Her ear perked up and she look at me with a smile.

"I would enjoy that a lot, Austin. We should get you settle in and show your room for now and let you rest a bit before dinner as well as let you get to know your two guards who should be back with some clothes that I sent them to get for you from a local human store."

"Heh, yeah this sure has been a long day so far...and it is not even over yet. I could do with a bit of rest." I let my mind wonder over the current day events while we walked in silence back to my room. Woke up, got my college degree, got force into this world, woke up in new world in the worst pain I have ever felt, passed out, woke up in the middle of a capital of ponies that can do magic and fly who keep humans as pets along with other uses...., chased by two ponies along with others and slam into one of two god like ponies, got told that a bunch of mythical creatures exist which some who eat humans, meet a creature of chaos who only brought me here for his own entertainment it seem like, got told that I am trap here forever, then I meet a scary human doctor unicorn who felt me up... yeah.....it just keeps getting better and better.

Chapter 5 - Royal Dinner

The rest of the walk back to I guess my room was in silence as I kept to my thoughts of recent events for most of the way and Luna was silent until we arrived to what I assume was my room. It happen to just be just down the hall from both Princess Luna and Celestia rooms.

"Here we are, Austin. You can rest up for a bit. Dinner will be ready in about a hour or so. If you have any questions or need to talk to us, one of us will usually be in the throne room while the other rest. If you have no other questions then I shall see you at dinner." Luna stood there for a moment and I shook my head no. She gave me a smile as she walk off to her room down the hall.

I open the door to find the.... uhhh... Pegasus and Unicorn (whose names I already forgotten) in my room talking to each other on a sofa before they stop to look at me. Closing the door behind me, I look at each of them as I stood there froze while they did the same. As they both jump off the sofa and started to walk up to me... I took a couple steps back while never taking my eyes off of them. They both notice that I seem nervous with them and they both stop to look at each other. The unicorn spoke up first...

"Uhhh.. sorry about earlier. We were just doing our jobs... so there no reason to be scared of us. We are your personal bodyguards now so we are here to protect you not hurt you, ok?" She look at me as I nodded back and let out a sigh of relief. "Good, so... Austin was it?"

"Yeah.. uhh, sorry I seem to have forgotten both of your names already." I went to go sit down on the sofa and they both sat across me on the other sofa. The Pegasus spoke up first.

"I guess we should introduce ourselves if we are going to be your guards. I am Sergeant Serenity Wing. Nice to meet you, Austin." I look over at the unicorn as she spoke up.

"I am Corporal Silver Light, nice to meet you as well, Austin."

"So.. you are both in some sort of military I am guessing?" I asked.

"Well yes we were in the Equestrian Military. Though as of now we have been transfer over to the Royal Guards Platoon and been assign officially as your personal guards just a bit ago." Serenity said.

"Oh, so... what did you both do in the military before now?"

"Well, I was a team leader of a squad of ponies and Corporal Silver here was our squad medic." Serenity said.

"So, how is this going to work now... are you both going to follow me where ever I go or what?"

"Well yes that is part of our duties... we also are to make sure you stay healthy and keep up with your mental & physical well being. As well as learn everything about you as we can." Serenity reply.

"Ah well that is good to know. Glad to know that I will have two people to keep me safe in this new and strange land.."

"Yes, well I guess we should get started." Silver spoke up as she levitated what look like a medical bag up. "If I am going to be able to treat you when your sick or hurt then I need to give you a physical exam. Need to know if there anything different from the humans of our world that I should know about." Silver said as she set the bag between us and started taking things out of her medical bag. Serenity hop off the sofa and face both me and Silver. "I shall be back as I need to report us in, Silver." She turn away as she walk out of the room.

I looked down onto the table to see a different selection of medical equipment that Silver had lay out. Though what caught my attention were the needles. I look back up at Silver with my eyes wide as she look at me with an eye brow raised.

"What the issue, Austin?" Still looking me as she was putting up a little hose attached to the needle that led to a blood bag with her magic.

"Heh... I..I.. nev..er... like nee...nee...needles...what are you planning to do with that..." I said with my voice cracking as I tried to stay as calm as possible.

"Oh, well I do need to take some blood from you for us to study and to keep on hand if any..... issues.... come up. It not going to hurt at all or anything I promise. Now be a good little colt and take a seat. It will be over before...." She said as she was putting the final touches on her little contraption as she heard the door open and saw me trying to run off. I never even got out of the door as a white aura caught me and floated me back in the room. I had an annoyed look on my face with my arms crossed as I look at her as she just shook her head at me.

"So... what made you think that was going to work?" She said as she had this smirk on her face.

"Stupid freaking bullshit magic and stupid needles." I mumble to myself.

"Sorry what was that?"

"Sigh... Guess I really got no choice in this matter..." I said as she sat me down on the sofa but kept me in her magic aura.

"Nope." She said as she push the needle into my arm and started drawing blood out. After about a minute she took it back out and sealed the blood bag as she put it back into her medical bag. "See... that was not hard at all."

"Yeah well, needles freak me out. All I have to say on the matter." I said while looked away annoyed.

"Its ok I will help you get over it... and besides if you try to run there is always my "Stupid freaking bullshit magic" to make you get over it." She said as what little like an evil grin on her as she continue the exam. Great...that not a creepy smile at all. She went on to grab a couple other tools and continue her exam until she put them back down and release me from her magical aura.

"Alright I need you to get up and strip your clothes." Silver said without missing a beat.

"What... you cannot be serious. Why do I got to take my clothes off?"

"Well, your clothes are dirty, torn up, and bloody up from earlier today and we got you some new clothes from the store for one. I also need those clothes off so I can scan your body properly. Now strip or else I can just use my "stupid freaking bullshit magic"." She said with a smirk.

"Fine... I got a feeling you are not going to let that go for a while are you." I said as I started to take my clothes off.

"I shall but for now it is simply to speed up past your whining. I want this done before dinner since both of the princesses expect you to be there."

"Pfft... I am not whining." I said as I finish taking everything off besides my boxers.

She just raise an eyebrow and gave me a "Uhh... bullshit" look then look at my boxer and back up at me. "Those need to come off too."

"Ugh... fine. Just do not stare." I said as I took the boxers off at well. She rolled her eyes and started a spell as what seemed to be a beam from her horn went from my head to my feet. Once she was finish, the door open and Serenity walked in... stop.... stared at my naked body and look at silver with a smirk. I was quick to cover myself up with my hands as I went to put my boxer on and turn around to the bed to see a couple pair of t-shirts and shorts laying on the bed.

"Well, I knew you like humans a lot, Silver, but you sure got him out of his clothes pretty quick." Serenity said as she walked past Silver who just gave her an annoyed look.

"Oh be quiet Serenity, its not like I have not seen a male human genitals before. You are the pervert here, Serenity." Silver look back as she was putting her medical tools back into her bag.

"You know you have not seen one that big when its not erected Silver..." She said as she walk up to silver and whisper something into her ear.

"Serenity!" She scream as Serenity laugh as she walked up to me.

"Well, Austin. I'd take this time to rest up now as we got a bit to kill before dinner. I am sure you could use it due to everything that has happen so far. I will be outside the door if you need anything." Serenity said as she walked out of the room with Silver right behind her.

"I have to go take these results down to Lyra. I most likely be busy till after dinner." Silver said before walking out with her medical bag in tow and with that I was left alone in the room.

For the first time since I have been in Equestria... I was in silence as I look at the door and around in the room. Alone to my own thoughts, I look over to the bed and decided to lay down since my body did take a good beating and were really sore as the feeling finally decided to make itself known. Heh, funny how I only notice how much my body is aching... course with everything that has happen... guess my attention was on what was in front of me. I laid on the bed which was really huge in size as it could fit me 1 1/2 of me in length I assumed but not getting under the cover as I had my back resting against the wall with a pillow in between. Even with what everything that happen, the feeling to go to sleep was no where near and even if I could I am not sure my mind would let me.

Well, I am stuck here and I am going to live my life here.... yeah... how am I going to go about even doing that. Sure, the two ruling sisters seem nice along with Serenity and Silver even if Silver did creep me out a bit before. Course there Lyra as well but I think it would be wise to stay away from her if she was not known to be pretty much the top pony when it came on knowledge on the humans here. I am most likely going to be meeting with her again even if I do not like the idea. Heh... but that only like 5 ponies and there were so many ponies that I saw outside the palace inside this city. Who knows how they are going to react to me, but I guess I will worry about it until later seeing how I am suppose to be kept a secret for now. Though I think the biggest problem is that thing... Discord.... I do have to wonder what the heck he got plan for me as it seems like I was apart of this plan of some bigger scale. I believe Celestia said something about meeting with the other Princesses and this one princess's friend as well. That is weird... why do I gotta meet with this one princess's friends for? Well, I guess I will find out eventually.

A knock at the door snap me back into my surrounding. Before I could even attempt to get up from bed to answer the door, the door open as Princess Luna walked in.

"Oh, hello Princ...Luna. Sorry." I said as I got up off the bed as I started to bow but I stop mid way since she did not want me to do that when it was the two of us which lead to me straight myself up while I had my head looking downwards as I heard a giggle come from where Luna was.

"Do not fret, Austin. I came to fetch you for dinner and to get to know you some more." Luna said as she motion for me to come on. Walking out of the room with Luna and I turn to see Serenity following behind us but giving us space as we walk down the hall.

"So, I heard some pony tried to run off like a scared little colt when Silver tried to take your blood." Luna said with a grin.

"Needles and me do not get along at all. I hate them. I rather face 10 angry hungry bears then even look at a needle. I do not know why but I just do not like them."

"Oh, do you have a phobia of needles or something?" Luna asked with curiosity in her voice.

"Yeah, I have always had it but as soon as it enters me and over with I go back to being calm."

"Ah." Luna simply replied.

"So... I was thinking from earlier that Celestia said about meeting up with the other princesses and one of the princess's friends? Why do I have to meet with friends of a princess for?"

"Yes, you will be meeting Princess Cadance and Princess Twilight. The friends of Twilight are known as the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony and as such should be inform of the situation as well."

"Uhhh... the elements of what now?" I said as I gave Luna a confused look. As we made the rest of the way to the Dinning room, Luna explained about who the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony are, their purpose, and what they have done in the past.

"Well.. that certainly a story. Seems like they have been through a lot from dealing with you as Nightmare Moon, the changelings attack, Discord, Sombra, and then Tirek. I can see why meeting with them would be a good idea now." I said as we came up to a doorway.

Opening the door for Luna as she thank me with a smile and entering behind her I saw a huge wooden table with lots of seats along the table with a table cloth covering the table with candles and other decorations covering the center of the table every so often. I saw Princess Celestia at one head of the table as Princess Luna took a seat to Celestia right. Not really sure where to sit at I simply follow Luna as I look around to see Serenity closing the door and standing next to the door way inside the dining room. I took the seat next to Luna as I look around to see two other ponies in golden armor inside the room who just stood there as a unicorn in a maid came up to the three of us asking what we wanted to eat. After Princess Celestia and Luna ordered, the maid came up to me and seem to jump in shock as she look at Princesses for an explanation when I guess she finally saw me.

"Oh, this is our special guest Austin, Blossom. He is different then all other humans as he is an intelligent who is capable of talking that came from a different world then ours. Be sure to treat him with the utmost respect please, Blossom." Celestia said. This caused Blossom eyes to go wide as she turned to look at me for confirmation. Not really knowing what to do, I simply say " Uhhh... yeah." as I hear Luna starting to laughing at my reaction to all of this.

"Oh my... this is amazing and please forgive my rudeness as humans are not allowed at the dining table with royalty. So Austin, what may I get for you tonight?" Blossom said giving me a smile as she had a pen and small notepad levitated in front of her with her magic.

"No problem, Blossom, and uhh..." I stop to finally take notice of I am a omnivore and far as I know these ponies are all vegetarian. I look at the two Princesses and give them a confused look before speaking up "So, quick question... what do humans here eat?" The two Princesses look at each other then back at me as Celestia answers me.

"Well, humans here are vegetarians like they always been... why do you want to know?" Celestia answer with a eyebrow raised. Well... shit. This is just going to go over so well.

"Really because from the world I come from... humans are umm... omnivores." I said which caused Blossom to gasp and starts backing up as Luna goes wide eyed with her mouth open in shock. Celestia was taken back a bit by my answer but stay perfectly calm.

"I see. Well, that is unexpected but I sure you will be fine with fish correct for a source of meat or eggs? Pegasus eat both of those in their diets but rarely. We do not allow anything else since pretty much all creatures are sentient besides fish." Celestia said which I simply shook my head in agreement.

"Yeah that is fine though all animals from where I am from are not sentient at all but there no way I could eat, kill, or hurt an animal that is intelligent at all." With that Blossom seem to calm down and walk up to me again.

"So, would you like a salad with fish then, Austin?" Blossom said.

"Yeah I guess that will be fine, Blossom. Sorry for scaring you like that." I said as I rubbed the back of my head as I awkwardly laugh.

"It is no problem, Austin. Just yet again a bit shocking to learn. Well, I shall be back later once your foods are ready." She said as she bow to the Princesses and left the room. I turned back to look at Luna who was right in my face looking at me.

"May I help you with something Princess Luna?" I said as I slowly back my face from hers.

"I thought I said to call me Luna, Austin and open your mouth so we may take a look." I shrugged as I open my mouth for Luna to look into.

"Wow so what you say is true. Most interesting to find this out." Luna said as she back up and seat properly back in her seat.

"Well, I find it odd how humans here are vegetarians but then again humans here seem to have evolved differently."

"Yes, I am sure Lyra will find this information most exciting. I am sure she will want you to visit here again." Luna said as she had a grin on her face. I simply gave her a dead stare as she started to giggle which Celestia seem to be confused on what was funny as she started to take a drink of water.

"Oh it was not that bad, Austin. I told you she was not going to cut you up and I will make sure she does not feel you up again." Luna said as Celestia started to chock on her water as I rolled my eyes as I look at Celestia.

"LUNA! That is not proper dining conversation at all and sorry Austin as I would of thought Lyra would not be one to do such a thing. We shall make sure nothing of the sort happens again, correct Luna?" Celestia said as she look at Luna.

"Yes, sister we will make sure it does not happen again and sorry." Luna said as she look back at her sister.

As we waited for our food to arrived, the three of us made small talk as the two princesses asked about the world I came from which I explained some of the current technology as the internet, various ways to travel via car, boat, and planes, TVs, computers as well as I explain the country I came from and how our government worked which the two princesses explain how the government worked in Equestria with the Princesses being the rulers of the land but there was also a senate that would deal with most of the countries issues but the Princesses could overrule them but told me that very rarely happen. They also explained the history of Equestria and about a couple of the major cities in the country which I found some of them to sound pretty familiar to cities from my world. Our conversation was interrupted when a white looking male unicorn came into the dinning room.

I look at Luna who whispered to me who this unicorn was. So this guy is a Prince then? Even though he is not an alicorn. I watch as he sat on the other side of Luna and once seated he look at Celestia.

"Good evening, Aunt Celestia. How are you doing tonight?" Prince Blueblood said who seem to be just ignoring me and Luna. As Celestia and Blueblood started to talk with each other Luna and I whispered to each other.

"I really dislike him, Austin. He is always an embarrassment to royal family. He barely even apart of this family but my sister decided to take him in when his only other family member died." Luna whispered while glaring at Blueblood.

"Why did you just tell your sister to not allow it, Luna?"

"We would if we were not still on the moon. He does try to be as nice to my sister but me and him do not get along." Luna said as she look at me.

"Oh, well he...." Though I was cutoff when I heard a loud gasp come from the Prince. Confused I turn my attention to look at Blueblood. He was trying to speak as he had a confused/stun look on his face until he turn to Celestia who simply had an eye brow raised at Blueblood.

"Aunt Celestia, what is that THING doing at the table? You would allow Aunt Luna to bring along her... toy... to the dinning table when you will not allowed anyone else to bring their pets to the table?" Blueblood said with confusion in his voice. I chocked on the water I was drinking when he called me... toy. As I cough to clear my throat and breath properly again I was looking at Luna who looked PISSED and Celestia simply was stun at what I guess he had just said. I turn my attention and could not care who this pony was as I spoke up.

"Did you really just call me a toy?" I said as I looked at Blueblood. This caused Blueblood eyes to go wide and have this stun face as he look from Celestia who was looking at me to Luna who was still look pissed off and then to me as I had my hands out in a confused gesture while just staring at him waiting for him to answer. Though Blueblood look at me to Celestia again and then seem to catch on what was going on I guess? He look at Luna who was trying to find words to say to him but was cutoff before he bow his head at Luna.

"Please accept my apologies Aunt Luna. I should know better then to think you would do such a thing. You may find me in my quarters later to yell at me for my actions. I will not blame you for doing so, Aunt Luna." Blueblood while still bowing his head turn to Celestia. "As well as you Aunt Celestia, please forgive my rudeness and I shall leave you all alone." Raising his head and looking at me again then back at Luna and Celestia. "I'll be in my quarters, Aunt Celestia. I will stay there as I believe you will have some words for me."

"Yes, I will be by to talk to you later, Blueblood." Celestia said and with that the Prince got up and left the dinning room. I turn at Luna who no longer had anger showing on her face but shock. I look at Celestia as she look at me.

"Please forgive my nephew for his rude words, Austin. I will speak to him later. Though it would seem he has been changing for the better some since the Gala Incident with the Element of Generosity." Celestia said as she from me to Luna.

"Yes, I sorta expected his first actions but him apologizing so quickly is not like him. Maybe you are finally starting to rub off onto him sister, but I still have some choice words for him later." Luna said finally speaking again. She turn to look at me "We are sorry for his rudeness as well, Austin."

"Well it alright... I guess after so many years of being used to a creature you only expect what you know. Though it is alright and I do not believe this will be the last time I have to deal with something of this nature." I said as Blossom came back into the room with a cart with the food we had ordered.

As we ate, we moved the subject on to the meeting with the other two Princesses and the Elements of Harmony. Celestia and Luna both explained more about them and about where Princess Cadance ruled over the Crystal Empire. As we finish eating, Celestia and Luna were explaining about their abilities to raise the sun and the moon. I told them how day and night worked from my world and told them it is kinda hard to believe such a thing.

"Well how about we show you, Austin. You shall believe once you see it." Luna said as she hop out of her seat. Celestia and Luna guided me along the halls to a balcony outside as Serenity still silently followed behind.

"Now watch and be amazed, Austin. If you please sister." Luna said. Celestia nodded as her horn lite up as she lowered the sun as Luna horn lite up as she raised the moon. I was simply stun which both of the sisters grinned as they saw the look on my face.

"Wow, you were not kidding. That is simply amazing to see first hand." I said still a bit shocked.

"We are glad that you enjoyed it and now I hope you will believe us now." Luna said with a bunch of joy in her voice.

"Yes... after seeing that I believe you now, Luna." I heard Celestia let out a yawn.

"Well it is late now, Sister. The watch is yours as I am heading to speak to Blueblood then I will be off to bed. I leave you in my sister care, Austin. Goodnight you too." Celestia said as she walk back inside.

"Goodnight Sister. Rest easy now." Luna said.

"Goodnight Princess Celestia." I said. As Celestia disappear back into the castle I turn my attention back to the sky.

"Wow there are so many stars visible in the sky tonight. It is so beautiful out with all those stars out." I said still staring at the sky.

"You like our night, Austin?" Luna asked.

"Yeah, this is amazing to see and I have always enjoy the night back on Earth but you could not see very many stars. Though here so many are out and it just simply breath taking." I said as I turn my attention to look at Luna who was blushing which I did not take notice of since it hard to see under her fur.

"Well I am glad you enjoy our night since not very many ponies do and we enjoy it when some pony compliments our night." Luna said as she look back up to the night sky. We look at the night sky for a couple minutes before Luna broke the silence.

"As much as I have enjoy this, Austin. I do have my royal duties to attend to and a certain nephew to speak to. I leave you in the care of Serenity. Goodnight, Austin." Luna said as she turn to leave.

"Goodnight, Luna." I said as I saw Luna look back to give me a smile before going out of sight. I looked back up at the night sky once more before walking back inside to see Serenity waiting for me.

"Ready to head back to your room, Austin?" Serenity asked.

"Yeah, I have had a eventful day and I could do with some sleep." I responded as Serenity motion to follow.

"I sure you have. Though if I was you I would had knock that Prince out cold if he was to call me a toy."

"Heh... that was pretty uncalled for. I can see why Luna does not seem to like him."

"Ha ha, yeah... he is like most high class ponies here in Canterlot. Bunch of selfish snobs who only think of their selves."

"Well, I guess we will see for ourselves eventually. I hope I do not have to keep on having to deal with people over reacting when they meet me. I believe that is going to get old quick."

"What do you expect when after thousands of years we have only known humans as we have known to be. When we see one, we are not expecting a intelligent talking human who is an omnivore. Speaking of which I am sure Silver will want to check you out again tomorrow as well as Lyra." I simply just sighed at the mention of being study by either one of those ponies which Serenity just turn around confused. I filled her in as what happen when I went with Luna to meet Lyra. She bursted out laughing when she heard what happen. I rolled my eyes and told her I do not look forward to that at all but told me that she will make sure nothing like that happens again. Eventually arriving at my room again and entering it followed by Serenity, we notice that Silver was already waiting for us in the room.

I kick off my shoes and took my shirt off as I got comfortable in bed as Serenity filled Silver in of the events she had missed out on. I heard Serenity to let me sleep and rest when Silver found out I was an omnivore which I was grateful for. After I ran over today events again, I sighed and could only hope that tomorrow will be better as I slowly drifted off to sleep.

Chapter 6 - Another Day Starts

The sun rose up and shine its blinding light through the window panels into the room in the early morning right smack on my face. This forced me to come out of my slumber since I was a light sleeper. Also unfortaneally I am one of those rare morning people, as soon as I am awake I already pulling the covers off of me to sit up. As I stretch my arms and legs to wake my muscles up, I rub my eyes as I jump up to go to the bathroom to do my morning routine.

"Yawn.... Oh man that was the craziest dream I ever had. That sure was odd how real that dream felt. Well, better get ready for the day since I must of party right after the graduation since I do not recall anything afterwards." I said as I walked to what I thought my bathroom was in my old apartment. Though as I slowly dragged my feet along the floor and rubbed my eyes some more, to my surprise, I walk right into the wall and fell backwards on my ass which snap me out of my morning daze.

"Son of a bitch!" I scream as I rubbed my head and started to open my eyes to see what the hell I ran into. As I tried to focus on what was in front of me which was a wall that completely confused me, I heard the door open beside me. When I looked over to the sound of the opening door, I see two of the ponies, Silver and Serenity, from my dream rushing in to see what was all the noise.

"What the problem, Austin?" Serenity said as she quickly scan the room and stared back to me as I looked at her with growing wide eyes and I slowly pointed a finger at her while my arm was shaking as I did so.

"Wait... you were from my dream... right? It was just a dream... Yesterday did not happen..." I said as I came back into the realization of what reality I am in and not in some dream.

"Oh it seems to cope with the events of yesterday his mind must of play yesterday off as a dream, Serenity." Silver said as Serenity seemed to be confused by my actions.

"Ah, well sorry to burst that bubble of yours but this is all real, Austin." Serenity said as she started to walk towards me. I simply just rub the front of my forehead with my hands as I calm myself down. Serenity put a hoof on my shoulder and gave me a smile as she spoke " Come on, Austin, you need to get up and get clean up for the day since it will be a pretty busy one. Sorry to say but there is no time for you to be sad or depress over the events of yesterday even if you deserve to be able to do so. The Princesses will be expecting you to be at breakfast in the dinning hall with them so they can speak to you over what to expect today."

"Sigh...Yeah I guess you are right. Thanks, Serenity." I said as I gave them both a small smile as I stood up. Though I still cannot believe this situation and not really 100% happy with it...but I remember what I decided yesterday which was the fact that I did accepted my situation. Since I am in this world now with no way back to my old one, I just got to move on... Sigh.

I got up and went through the bags on the dresser in the room which has some clothes which was brought for me yesterday. I pull out a T-Shirt, Shorts, underwear, and socks then head into the bathroom to take a shower, get clean up, and get dressed which takes me about a total of 20 or so minutes. The clothes seem a little tight in some places and seem a bit small which make sense how I am different from the humans here. Will have to deal with that later on. Walking out of the bathroom a bit happier due to feeling fresh and clean, I put on my pair of shoes on and look around the room to find Serenity and Silver not in there. Huh, I guess they went back out into the hallway again. I open up the door and walk out to the hallway to find them one of them on one side of the door to the room.

"So, I guess we should head down to the dinning hall now?" Serenity gives me a nod in response as she leads the way with Silver following behind. "Ya know... just yesterday morning I was just a newly graduated college student and not anyone special or anything. Now I am being escorted by two personal bodyguards, who happen to be ponies but not just any normal pony but a Pegasus and a Unicorn, in a overly sized castle.... to breakfast." This seemed to cause both of them to laugh and giggle.... I think this is the first time I saw Silver actually not in serious mode.

"Yeah well... we would not want the only intelligent talking human in our world to get lost or attack. So, I would better just get use to it and besides I am sure you will grow to enjoy having us around." Silver said as Serenity looked over her shoulder at me to nod in agreement.

"Yep, I am sure we are more or less here for now to make sure you are not getting lost. It can be pretty easy to get lost in here, but in time I am sure you might need us for actual protection as the rest of the world learns of your presence in our world.... would not want you to be dragged away by a couple of horny mares now would we?" Serenity said with a evil looking grin as she look at me over her shoulder.

"Uh... yeah... I rather that not happen... like at all. Though... its not like I am a complete weakling... I did learn some Muay Thai but mostly Kenpo which I was a black belt in and I even kept up with practicing every morning since I started learning back in the start of middle school. I even got some pretty decent size muscles on me." I was trying my best to show my "manliness" as I grinning to which they both just raised an eye brow to.

"Uhhh, what the heck is this... Muay Thai and Kenpo... Also could you please stop doing whatever that is and kept up besides you look a bit silly doing it." Serenity said as Silver was laughing at my antics. I quickly stop and ran to catch up since my "manliness" was simply just lost on them and sighed.

"Well they are both a form of martial art. Muay Thai is a fighting style that combined use of fists, elbows, knees and shins to attack where as Kenpo is all about self-defense. I know both so I can defend myself if I need to and Muay Thai lets me use moves to attack if the situation calls for it but I rather not fight in the first place which is why I mostly focused on Kenpo."

"Oh, well that nice to know that you be able to take care of yourself if you are separated from the two of us somehow. Though let it be known that if you are attack, that you are to let us take care of said attackers and you get yourself to safety." Serenity said as she stop to turn around to look me in the eye to make sure I understood her clearly.

"I am not sure I could leave some gir...err mares... to fight..." I got cut off by Serenity as she started to push a hoof on my chest.

"I said you will get yourself to safety! Do I make myself clear?" Serenity said in a more serious tone.

"Yes, but my own morals will not let me leave a couple girls or mares to fight for me." Serenity signed and rolled her eyes as she seemed to start to get annoy with me.

"It is our job to make sure nothing happens to you and a mare job to protect a stallion as well as I am not going to let anyone hurt a stallion. I am not trying to say you cannot take care of yourself or trying to insult your morals but for us to do our jobs.... you need to do as we say." Serenity said as she looked me in the eyes.

"Well... fine. Though this sounds kinda reversed with how the roles are suppose to be." I said as I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes.

"Wait... what do you mean by reversed roles?" Silver cut in as she lean her head in a confused manor.

"Well, where I am from its the man that protects the woman from harm." I respond as I turn my attention to Silver.

"Hmmm, that interesting... and who the one that attempts courting?" Silver asked.

"Well, its the man that suppose to ask the girl out. As well as pay for the date, protect them, and provided for them. There a even a sort of unspoken rule where there with guys that you do not lay a finger on a lady. Though that the majorly of how it works in the world I come from and how I see it but it sort of depends where you come from and what part of the world you are in."

"Odd... what the ratio of men to women in your world?"

"Well it pretty much every 1 guy to 1 women."

"Well, that would pretty much explain it then. See here in Equestria... its the other way around with how you explain it as there are a lot mares to stallions. Which is why it is usually the mare responsibility to do those things you said that would be a man job from where you came from."

"Oh.... well... huh. Whats the ratio here?"

"I believe it is 6-7 mares to 1 stallion."

"Shit... well I guess I can see how that kinda works out here. Not sure if I will ever get use to the fact the roles are reversed here though."

"Yeah so you understand now?" Serenity said.

"Yeah I do even if I may not like it."

"Good. So, just let us do our jobs since we are trained to do this sort of thing... besides have you ever fought a Earth Pony, Pegasus, or Unicorn before?"

"Well... no."

"Which is why it most likely best if you leave it to us. Though that does bring up a good point that we should teach you how to fight a Pegasus or Unicorn in case you ever have to. For now lets get moving to the dinning hall before we waste any more time and end up having the Princesses search for us." Serenity said as she turn back around to lead us on.

Entering into the dinning hall, Celestia and Luna were already at the table waiting for me to arrive. I decided to just sit next to Luna who was sitting next to Celestia who sat at the head of the table yet again. Serenity and Silver both stood behind me against the wall.

"Good morning, Austin. How did you sleep?" Celestia said as Luna look at me awaiting the answer as well.

"I slept pretty well considering with everything that happen yesterday." Luna seem to raise an eyebrow and had a confused look on her face when I said that.

"Uh, if I may cut in, Princess. Silver had to put a sleep spell on him to get him to fall back asleep after he woke up about 40 or so minutes after falling asleep when he was tossing and screaming in his sleep." Serenity step forward from the wall up to Celestia.

"Wait... what? I do not recall having any nightmares or waking up during the night." I said as I tried to recall last night. Luna had a guilty look on her face since Celestia seem to see it.

"Luna, would you have anything to do with this since your face seems to say you have something to do with this." Celestia said as she stared her sister in her eyes.

"Uh, well... I might of have view his life to get an better idea of who he was by playing his past memories in his dream." Luna said as she averted her eyes from looking at her sister.

"Wait... what? You can see my dreams and my memories?"

"Yes, we have the power to enter and view people dreams and past memories as is my duty to do so as the Princess of the Night."

"So... you saw all of my memories... and the world I came from."

"Not all of your memories but those you deemed important and from those I was able to see some of your world, yes. I am sorry to have broken your privacy but I had to see the type of person you are. Which in case you are wondering, I have decided that you would not harm any of our subjects unless threaten like you have stated before and have a good kind heart which you have seen your good and bad times during your life. You are a pretty remarkable person from what I have seen so far, Austin. I hope you understand why I had to do so as well as know that what I saw will stay to only me... not even my sister will see or know what I have seen. Ok?" Luna said as she put a hoof on my shoulder and gave me a smile as she stared into my eyes.

"Well.... I am not sure how I feel about you kinda getting to see such personal events from my life, but I guess I can see why you would do so. At least it helps let you know that I am not a threat to you all and that you can trust me, but I will be keeping you to your word that what you saw stays with only you and you only. Do not even tell anything from what you saw from my world."

"Of course, Austin. Though your world is a most troublesome place... I am not sure how you humans from your world can stand such things."

"You and me both..." I said as Celestia just look at us both with a confused look as she felt left out and not knowing what we were talking about exactly.

"Well, I am glad that my sister thinks that you are a good person, Austin, and that you are not mad at my sister for her actions either." Celestia said with a warm smile.

"Yeah, I cannot be mad at her exactly though I believe I might want to speak to Luna later to see what exactly it was that she saw...." I said as my belly decided to rumble in hunger. "Heh... guess my stomach has other thoughts at the moment."

Blossom decided to appear once my stomach made its hunger known. Though I saw her yesterday in the same outfit... it is a pretty strange and odd sight to see a pony wearing a maid outfit or in any type of clothing but I guess it will just have to be something that I will have to get use to in this world.

"Good Morning, Princesses and Austin. What can I get for you all this morning?" Blossom said as she bowed to both of the princesses.

"Hmmm, I'll take some french toast and scramble eggs with some toast n jelly. You can get me some orange juice to drink." Celestia said.

"I'll take some chocolate chip pancakes and some hash browns with some toast with jelly as well. Water is fine for me." Luna said as she lick her lips at the thought of what she ordered. After writing down her order, Blossom came up to me to which yet again to put me on the spot on what I was suppose to order as if I knew.

"Uhhh... I'll just do what Luna order as that sounds really good as well but I'll take some apple juice to drink." I said as I rubbed my head nervously. Luna looked over to me with a smile as she heard what I ordered. Blossom went out of the room after finish writing my order down.

"Oh, you like Chocolate chip pancakes as well? They are most wonderful to have! I could eat them for every meal of the day even for dinner." Luna said with this overly happy expression.

"Well it is dinner for you, Sister." Celestia chimed in.

"I just went ahead with breakfast food since you all are having it..." Luna said as she had a hoof on her lips that seem to droll as she look at her empty plate.

"Uh-huh suuuurrreee... whatever makes you happy my dear sister." Celestia said with a sarcastic tone. "Just make sure you are eating healthy... you do not want to relive that week when you ate nothing but chocolate chip pancakes when we were both fillies do you?"

"Ugh... do not remind me of that week. I swear I felt sick for a whole month afterwards." Luna grumbled as she set her head onto the table and hold her stomach at the memory of it.

"Well I hate to break the nostalgic mood between the two of you but what the game plan for me today?"

"Oh right sorry, Austin. You will be spending the day with Luna since night court for tonight has been cancel and I shall be busy with day court. Luna will guide you back to Lyra lab this morning at Lyra request and which by then Princess Cadance and Twilight along with the bearers of the elements will arrive in which case we will all meet up for lunch. Afterwards I am sure you will be dealing with Luna, Cadance, and Twilight and her friends for the rest of the day most likely. You will also meet two more guards tonight at some point to protect you during the night."

"Well that sounds like a fun day. Though I am not sure I am all too happy about going back to see Lyra again and what are these other guards like?"

"Oh I said I would make sure she does nothing to you again, Austin. As for the two new guards of yours are from my lunar guard. I hoof pick them myself." Luna said with a grin.

Blossom came back into the room at this time with a cart filled with what we had ordered and set each of our orders in front of us with her magic before bowing yet again and turning around to leave. I dug into my scramble eggs and toast first which tasted amazing. The grape jelly for the toast was really sweet and a lot better then any that I had before. It was the same with the pancakes as I can see why Luna would only eat these for every meal of the day. After we finish eating our meals, Celestia told us that she would see us at lunch and took her leave to day court. Luna got up and told me to follow her and we walked out into the hallway with Serenity and Silver following behind us as we walked off to Lyra's Lab.

"So, Luna... what all did you see from my memories?" I say as I walk beside her as look at her.

"Oh... right. So, we did see the events of your parents death and you during college until you graduated. I am sorry for your lost. Though what I saw of your world frightens me. Your world is just one big chaotic place filled with war, starvation, diseases, greed, and just a whole lot of problems." Luna said as she kept looking forward.

"Oh... well... thanks I guess. Though please know that I am not like other humans from my world nor do I approve of the stuff that you saw, Luna."

"Yes, we know. We saw some earlier instances or glimpse of what seem you protecting a girl from some older gentleman... though I did not know why you were doing so but you did take a beating from him till another adult intervene."

"Oh... heh... you saw that. Well, the guy who saved me ended up being my Kenpo and Muay Thai instructor. He taught me a lot of different things which I make sure to follow daily."

"Yes... you seem very dedicated to it as in your life you seem happy during your times that you are training."

"Yeah... while I am training I feel like I am in my own peaceful world and just able to focus on myself while not having to worry about the rest of the world and its effect on me." Luna look at me and gave me a smile.

"Which is why we believe you to be a good soul and not a threat to our subjects. After seeing those memories, we know it to be sure." I gave Luna a small smile as we came up to the two door leading into Lyra's Lab.

"So... it not too late to just turn around now right?" I said as I was given a push from behind me by Silver as I saw both Luna and Serenity roll their eyes at me. As we past the doors and got into the lab, I saw Lyra in a clean lab coat as she sat at a workbench with my smart phone in different pieces. I was about to say something till I saw two more of them right next to them.

"Oh so you went ahead and made copies of the phone since yesterday?" Silver said as she walk up to the side of Lyra. Lyra turn to look at her then turn to see the rest of us standing in her lab.

"Well yes I did which means Austin you can have the original back. Do not worry the copies only have the songs still on them and not your personal pictures. I made sure to make physical pictures of all of those!" Lyra said as she pulled a case filled with pictures.

"Oh..... yeah... that totally..... makes it better but thanks for getting this back to me." I said as I mentally facepalm and sighed.

"Of course and I made sure to charge it up fully for you too." Lyra said as she was starting to show Silver some of the pictures from the folder.

"Oh before we get caught up in these pictures Lyra, I have learn something new about how relationships work & views on males and females of human from Austin's world. You know how here we have mares are the more "dominate" sex here right? Well back from Austin's world, the males are the one who are the more "dominate" ones. To think to have a stallion ask you out or be the one to protect you and do everything possible to treat you special." Silver said all excited like. Luna ears seem to perk up at this and she walked over to them to listen in. I looked over to see Serenity just roll her eyes and take guard next to a door at the entrance of the lab.

"Oh this is most interesting. I wonder how that is though? Are there more males then females from where he at?" Lyra asked.

"No, actually its apparently 1 male to 1 female in his world." Silver explained.

"Ah, so that would explain some of the stuff I saw in Austin's memories then." Luna said joining in the conversation.

"Oh you saw his world? You must share those memories to me to farther my studies." Lyra said all excited at the thought of being able to see a new world. I finally pick up where the conversation was heading and hope Luna would stay true to her word as I watch the three of them talk about me.

"I am sorry, Lyra. As much as I know it would help out some with your research... I made a promise to Austin that I would keep these memories to myself." Luna said which cause Lyra to pout at hearing that.

"So, what exactly are we doing back down here anyways or why did I have to come down here?" I said wanting to change the subject.

"Oh yes, sorry. I wanted to apologized for my actions yesterday. I would have you know that anything I did was truly academic and nothing more I assure you. Also, I wanted to return your phone as well in case you wanted to have it back. That pretty much it." Lyra said as she gave me a reassuring smile.

"Oh well, thanks for the phone back and I guess I can forgive you as long as it does not happen again."

"Great!" Lyra said as she clap her hooves together.

"So if that is everything... may I be on my way then?" I asked.

"Oh yes you may. Thank you for taking some time to come down." With that I turn to walk out of the lab which Luna followed me out of along with Serenity. I saw Lyra and Silver going over the pictures that were in the folder again before I left the lab.

"So, what are we to do now, Luna?" I asked as the princess caught up and was walking besides me as we exited the lab.

"I believe we should make our way to go meet the others so we can get every pony introduce with each other before we meet up with my sister for lunch. They should be here by now and Tia should have directed them to one of the living rooms. We should go see my sister to see where it was that she sent them." Luna replied.

So, we ended up walking to the throne room which I waited outside the door while Luna went to go speak with Celestia. After a couple of minutes she came back out as she gesture to follow her. As we came up to what I believe to be the room due to us stopping outside of the door, I could hear lots of different voices inside but unable to really make anything out besides a lot of feminine voices coming from inside. The voices stop as Luna knocked on the door and announced that we were entering inside.

As I walked in I saw a bunch of ponies but only caught a glimpse of inside the room before my sight was filled with a pony who eyes where un-naturally huge and all I could smell was cotton candy. I yelped in fright as I jumped back due to being surprised which she found funny. I tried to calm down at the sudden release of adrenaline which was pump into my blood stream and could feel my heart just pounding away while the pony was speaking faster then I could understand her. I only made out a couple things like her name being Pinkie Pie, asking questions about me I guess, and something about a party before being engulf in a purple glow and drag back to the other ponies in the room who were all shaking their heads.

I was able to get a better look at all the other ponies in the room as they were speaking to Pinkie Pie about not trying to scare me and something else but I just ignore it as something else caught my attention. I heard some laughter coming from besides me and behind me, as I turn to stare at Serenity behind me who look away still giggling as she took up a position at the door. I turn to look at Luna who seemed to be calming down from her laughter and motion for us to sit at the table. I took my seat next to Luna as I look at the other sitting at the round table.

"So, Auntie Celestia told us that you would inform why we were all summon here, Auntie Luna and I am guessing it has something to do with the odd looking human here?" The Pink Alicorn said.

"Yes, you are correct Cadance and along with some other things." Luna replied.

"So, what so important about this human here that could call for an emergency meeting so suddenly?" The purple alicorn asked.

I saw Luna just smirk at the question and turn to me "Care to explain to them, Austin?" They all turn their focus on me with looks of confusion as I rolled my eyes at Luna as I caught on to what she wanted me to do but I decided to mess back with Luna. I simply decided to stare at her blankly for about 10 seconds before lending my head to my side like a dog does when its confused. This simply caused Luna to face hoof at me playing dumb. The other ponies look back at Luna even more confused as I could hear Serenity trying her best not to laugh.

"Ummm, you do know humans are very intelligent creature who are unable to speak right, Auntie?" Cadance asked Luna.

Luna was about to respond as I cut her off as I turn my attention to Cadance.

"Well.... I hate to burst a hole in that theory of yours....but.... yeah..." I said as all I got in return from the other ponies were a bunch of gasp as Luna shook her head at me.

"Was that really necessary to play dumb like that and make me look like some crazy pony?" Luna asked.

"Well, I thought it would be nice to mess with them since the whole "he can talk" gag is starting to get old and I thought a little pay back was in order for laughing at me getting scared by that one named Pinkie Pie." I responded with a smirk. This cause Luna to huff at me in annoyance as she turn her attention back to the others.

About 30 minutes past as I explain everything that happen to me yesterday (left out certain parts for obvious reason) which they all look sad when I told them how I was pretty much stuck here and once I finish Luna took over.

"So, the other reason you were called her is to speak about our conversation we had with Discord. We suspect he is up to something against us again and we need to be...." Luna was cut off as another voice cut her off.

"I am up to something but you seem to have it all mixed up as I am helping you all to prepare for the future." The voice came from the lamp in the middle of the table before it transform into Discord. "Sorry to come uninvited but I just had to see where all my dear friends were running off to."

"Discord you have a lot of nerves to show your face around me after what you have said to me yesterday and what you have done to me in the past." Luna said as she glared at Discord with annoyance and anger in her voice. "Explain yourself quickly and hope my patience does not wear out before you are able to."

"Ah yes, well I may have play a part in nudging you along back then..... but even if I have not done so you would have ended up the same and you know this. I do however apologize for my actions as I am not the same as I once was that you know me as and was in stone when it occur but you know how chaos magic is. I cannot always control it always when it does have a mind of its own. As for yesterday, I said I brought the human here to help you all in the upcoming events. Though I simply thought of creating a human that was intelligent and could talk as it would be funny like I stated before... but as you all know that was not the case for this. You will need all the help you can get, Luna. There are those who will look to see Equestria destroy and will act to do so in the future. What will happen or who will attack... I am not certain but I know that in due time it will happen and I would like to do my best to help." Discord respond.

I look at Discord with a bit of hate as he was so cruel to my unfortunate situation that was his fault in the first place. I look over at Luna who seem to be lost in her own thoughts as she was properly thinking about her past. I turn my attention back to Discord and I simply lost it...

"So that sounds like a bunch of bullshit. If I recall that you were laughing at my situation and its because of you that I am now fucking stuck here unable to return to my world and I believe I owe you a thanks. For when you brought me into this world, you cause me to break some bones and inflict other injuries so thank you asshole for that." I yelled as I quickly stood up from my chair and glared at him in anger.

"Well as for your situation, yes... I am responsible for it in a way and I have an odd sense of humor and I do feel sorry for your situation even if I may not show it. It is simply just the way who I am and just how my personality is. Only recently have I given up my past of taking over Equestria due to the six ponies that are in here.... expectually miss Fluttershy here. As for the way you arrive here yet again sort of my fault but chaos magic has a mind of its own but I am sorry for causing you any pain. I know you may always hate me but I do hope you will full fill your role in the upcoming events and help protect Equestria. Now I will be on my way to inform Celestia of my plans since I have explain myself to Luna and inform you of why you are here. Ciao!" Discord explain and left with a poof.

I sighed and rub my head as I did not know what to think of that one but I still hate him. I look over at Luna who seem to be in her thoughts still as I heard the others speak between their selves.

"So, what he says about him being this changed person or whatever... is that true? Can we trust that jerk?" I asked the others.

"Well, even though he might seem insensitive to other feelings at first... he does have a heart in him and he has change for the better." Fluttershy said.

"Ya, we might of had a ruff patch with him when we started to get to know him but he grows on ya once ya git to know him besides I can tell he is speaking the truth with what he said. " Applejack added.

"Well, I have been told about how you all are the bearers of the Elements of Harmony and all but I believe Princess Celestia will know best, right Princess Luna?" Hearing her name cause Luna to snap out of her own little world and look up at me.

"Oh... yes. Sorry I was caught up in my own thoughts. My sister can certainly deal with Discord and we will see what she decides. Since it is getting close to lunch I think we should go ahead and meet up with her actually to get her thoughts on the matter."

As Luna finished we all got up and headed off to the dinning room. I stayed by Luna side while I could hear bits and pieces of the others speaking about me and about Discord. We all filed into the dinning room to see Celestia already there waiting for us to arrive. I took my seat yet again next to Luna as Cadance sat on the other side of the table next to Celestia and the bearers of the elements all next to her on the other side of the table leaving me and Luna to ourselves on the other side. Cadance, Celestia and others got caught up as we order our lunch. Once we order, Celestia decided to get down to business.

"So, is everyone informed on why we are all here and what it is we are going to be discussing?" Celestia asked which she got a bunch of nods in return. "Good. So who would like to start?"

"I think I will start this off first." I said which Celestia simply gave me a nod to continue. "You had a discussion with Discord after he meet with us correct, Princess Celestia?" Yet again she simply nodded yes. "So, do you believe what he says?" This caused Celestia to think for a moment before she spoke.

"Yes, he told me about what he spoke about to you and my sister. I do believe him expectually after all he been through recently. He may not show it but I am sure in his heart and soul that he does care and honestly is worried about whatever is in store for Equestria in the future. As for what that is or when it will happen is unknown to us but we must be prepared. This is why I have called you all here so you know to keep your eyes open for anything out of the ordinary. I am not saying you have to change anything in your daily routine but if you find something that not right then you should inform the rest of us. We do not want to tip off whatever it may be wanting to cause us harm that we know that something is a mist. Does every pony understand?" Celestia got a bunch of nods and yes from everyone. "Good since that little thing is settle then we can discuss about the bigger reason why you are all here which deals with our friend Austin is here."

"Yeah we heard of a bit of Austin journey here and why Discord brought something like him here but what seem exactly is the problem here, Auntie?" Cadance asked.

"Well, it is sure to create a lot of strife with my little ponies once the fact of Austin gets out. I know most of it will be good things but there are those might do harm to him or see him as a threat. Also, Austin has not seen a whole lot of the world outside the castle besides the incident when he first arrived and is going to need some ponies to help introduce him to Equestria. So for now I was thinking that Twilight and her friends could help Austin with that." Twilight ears perked up when she heard her mentor say her name.

"Of course, Celestia. We would be happy to do that. Right girls?" The others nodded their heads and agreed.

"Good. Now he may be structurally different from the humans here but he should pass off here in Canterlot as the ponies like to keep their humans clean and even clothed so he should be able to pass off as just another human if he was to go with the 6 of you to explore Canterlot and get introduce to the world here and also give you all a chance to get to know each other. Course, this means Austin will have to play the part of acting like the rest of the humans here until the world knows of his existence.... that is if Austin agrees to this." Celestia and the other all turn their attention to me.

"Uh... wait that means I would be walked around like some mindless pet and be drag around with a collar?" I asked as I recalled of what I saw the other day with how humans were walked around like pets.

"Unfortunately yes... that is the idea and it is a law that all humans be on a leash at all times." Celestia turn her attention over to Serenity who was stand behind me against the wall. "Serenity, this means that you and Silver will stay here as it might cause some questions as to why there are two royal guards following behind Austin along with the bearers of the elements."

"Of course, Princess." Serenity responded. "If you beg my leave I shall go find Silver and inform her."

"Of course, Serenity. This might be a good time to meet up with the other guards and inform them all you know about Austin and get to know each other." Celestia responded. After Serenity bowed to the Princesses and told me goodbye, she disappeared as she walk out of the dinning room. After she left, Celestia turn her attention back over to me which I simply sighed and gave her my answer.

"Yeah I guess that I can deal with for now since I am interested to see the city and see the culture of this place. Though how do you plan to let the world know of my existence?"

"Me, Luna and Cadance will be discussing that while you are gone and hopefully will have an answer for you by tomorrow." Celestia answer. As she finished talking, we were brought our lunch and ate and I said my goodbyes to Celestia, Luna, and Cadance as I went and followed Twilight and her friends out of the dinning hall.
