You can imagine the character as your OC, or, you can make one here: The Facebook app version Or, General Zoi's version Your goal: Either find a way to get back to earth, or find a new home in Equestria. Advice: Don't die. The wrong choices can end your journey very easily and very soon. You let out a groan as you roll over lazily on the grass. What happened? The last thing you remember is walking outside to get the mail, and then nothing. Did something hit you? You shake your head to clear the blurriness in your eyes and force yourself into a siting position. You bring your hands to your face and slowly rub your eyes. But, the second your hands make contact with your eye, you feel something stab into it. You yelp in surprise and pull back your hands... only to see hooves. You gulp and bring them closer to your face. Yep, they're hooves alright. But, how is that possible? You examine the rest of your body to see that you are indeed a pony. To be more specific, a earth pony. Looks like being a brony has some advantages... but why are you here? How did you even get here? After thinking for a second, you stand and look around. As far as you can tell, your in a forest. But, to your knowledge, it doesn't look like the Everfree forest. It's to peaceful and beautiful looking. Only other conclusion is it's the Whitetail forest... or a random forest miles away from anything. You rub your chin and look towards what looks to be a beaten path, that could lead to a town. On the other hand, you could go father into the forest and see if you come out on a town that way. Follow the path, going deeper into the forest doesn't sound like a good idea. Go deeper into the forest, theres a chance you'll find a town. Page 3You trot towards the boutique, a skip in your step. Excitement was literally bubbling off of you as you got nearer and nearer to the boutiques door. When you reached it, you brought your hoof up and prepared to slam it into the door. But stopped when you remembered something. This is Rarity you're dealing with, you shouldn't just bang on her door like a barbarian! You must be graceful. You stiffen up and give the door a few gentle taps. After a few seconds, you get no response. You sigh and give it a little harder knock. Still, no response is given from inside. A little annoyed, you knock against the door harder. No response. You glare daggers at the door and grit your teeth. You pull back your hoof and begin to slam it against the door, causing cracks to form around the door with each hit. "Hey hey! Don't do that!" You hear someone yell from behind you. You turn around and see a light blue pony looking at you, a angry look on his face. Teach this pony to mind his own business. Apologize and take your leave. Page 13You shake your head to clear all thoughts of your brony side so you can ask reasonable questions. "Actually yes, where is your sister, Applejack?" You ask, a large smile still plastered on your face. Apple Bloom scrunches up her face in thought and looks around, "Ah don't know, last I saw her was this mornin', said she was heading inta town to meet with the others about somethin' important." You frown slightly, knowing you missed your chance at seeing her. "Uh, what about Big Mac?" She shrugs and looks around, "Ya know? I think he's out behind the barn. But, he doesn't want ta be bothered." You begin to ask her another question, but she begins to trot off towards the apple orchard, "Sorry mister! But me and mah friends were about to do somethin' mighty important." You heave a sigh and think about following her, but decide against it. Go to Ponyville. Page 14After a little thought, you decide that going deeper is a better idea. Besides, it's only the Whitetail forest, and according to the show, this place is run by ponies. So, the odds of running into a dangerous creature are very low. You trot down into the thicket, weaving your way past trees and bushes. Eventually, you come to a clearing. You see nothing of interest in the area and move on into the clearing. After taking a few steps into the forest, you think you hear something. But, upon looking around, you see nothing. Once you've trotted across the clearing, you hear the sound again. And again, after looking around, you see nothing. A little worried, you pick up your pace and continue on your way. When you round a tree, you see something duck behind a large rock. You jump slightly and wait for it to reappear. But, what ever it was, it's staying behind the rock. Go see what it is, may be a friendly animal. Back track and take the path, going into the forest may not be the best idea after all. Page 17The towns library, which is also the home of Twilight Sparkle, that's the most logical place to go for answers. It is a library after all. You happily trot up to the door and give it a hard knock. You then back up and begin to sway on your hooves, excitement running through you body. What are you going to ask her first?! Should you try and sway her with your words of romance? Or, should you.... The door opened, and to your slight disappointment, to reveal the awesome baby dragon, Spike. He greeted you with a smile and a slight wave, "Hey, are you here for a book, or something?" You smile happily and take a step towards him. Let your inner brony out and go fan boy on him. Stay on task and ask for Twilight. Page 19You trot into the peaceful town, a smile forming on your face as you watch the cheerful ponies move about their daily lives. You take a deep breath of fresh air and get a whiff baked goods and flowers. The whole scene before you makes the brony side of you jump in joy, while the logical side of you tries to think of where to go first. Go to the library and talk to Twilight Sparkle, maybe she can tell you how you got here. Go to Rarity's boutique Go to Sugar Cube Corner Go to Sweet Apple Acres Go to the outskirts of town. Page 26You trot over to the large rock and peer behind it... Nothing. You could have sworn you saw something duck behind it. You let out a slightly annoyed sigh and turn around, ready to get back on task. But, the second you turn around, you come face to face with a chicken... Wait, not a chicken, a cockatrice! You start to back away, trying to turn your head from its deadly glare. But alas, it was useless. The cockatrice continued to stare you in the eyes, its glare getting more intense by the second. All you're able to do is watch in horror as stone slowly covers your vision, leaving you with nothing but darkness. Hey, at least you have time to try and think of a reason a cockatrice would be in this peaceful forest, right? Ending: Eternal entombment Go back to beginning. Page 27You trot down a role of trees, each tree holding a bushel of apples ready to be bucked. You're tempted to take one, but resist the urge, not knowing if it's stealing or not. After a minute, you come to the gate that lead into the actual farm. Inside, you could see the barn, which apparently functioned as the house also. You couldn't see anyone, but that could mean they're in the barn. After a little thought, you begin to trot over to the barn. Once you were at the door, you give it a few knocks. When no one came to the door, you turned with a disappointed face. "Hey mister!" You hear a cheerful voice yell out off to the side. You look over and see a small yellowish filly trotting towards you, coming from the apple orchard. "Uh, hey." You reply with a small wave. The filly, which you know is Apple Bloom, stops in front of you and smiles up at you, "Do ya need something?" You keep looking at her, a smile forming on your face. Let your brony side loose and go all fan boy on her. Use your sane side and continue with your quest of answers Page 31After a hour of walking down the path, you finally notice that the tree's are thinning out. Looks like taking the path was the right way to go. When you emerge from the forest, you find yourself at a three way. There's a sign pointing in two different directions. One path leads to the town of Ponyville, while the other path leads to Sweat Apple Acres. Go to Ponyville, may be some answers there. Go to Sweet Apple Acres, may be some answers there, and you may see Applejack. Page 36You stop yourself and smile, "May I speak to Twilight Sparkle." "Twilight?" He asked, rubbing his chin. You nod in response. He frowns and shakes his head, "Sorry, but she isn't here." Your expression drops, "She isn't? Where is she then?" He gives a shrug, "Beats me, she just told me to watch over the library while she and her friends go attend to something important." You furrow your brow at this information, "What was important?" He licks his lips and shrugs, "I don't know, she got a letter from the Princess and just left." The princess huh, might be worth a trip to Canterlot. Well, that is if you can even get in to see her. May need to gather more information first. Go back to town square. Page 23You stomp up to the pony and put your face in his, "What did you say?" He growled and put his forehead against you, challenging you, "I said, don't hit that door! The boutique isn't open today!" "You know what I say?" You say, pressing your head into his, "I say prepare to get your flank kicked!" You push your head forward, causing him to stumble back. But, before you can get to teaching, he yells out for help. Almost instantly, your body is forced downward by an unseen force. As you struggled on the ground, two unicorns and the pony walk up to you. All looking at you with angry expressions. "Huh, I was joking?" You say in an attempt to get away. "Oh? Joking huh?" The pony said smugly as he looked at his two friends, "What do you say we show him a joke?" "I've got the perfect 'joke'." One of the unicorns say with a smirk. Well, let's hope you like being tied up in the middle of the Everfree forest... what could possible go wrong? What was that?! Ending: Hog tied death Go back to beginning. Page 2"Spike!" You squeal, a large smile covering your face. He raised an eyebrow and shifted on his feet, "Uh, yeah?" You do a small jump of happiness and point a hoof at him, "Oh my gosh! It's really Spike! The most badass dragon alive!" Spike gulped and stiffened his stance, "Um, did you get out of you hospital room?" You shake your head furiously and take another step closer, "Nope! I'm one hundred percent healthy!" You then hold out your forelegs, "Give me a bro hug!" Spike's eyes widened as he grabbed the door and slammed it in your face. You hang your head and scruff at the ground, "Oh drat, I only wanted a bro hug..." Go back to town square. Page 40*Squee* You squeal in delight and instantly pick up Apple Bloom in an awkward hug. "I can't believe it! Apple Bloom! The best Cutie Mark Crusader!" You yell out, jumping up and down in happiness. "What are ya doin'?" She asked in a worried/scarred voice. You hold her out in front of you and smile crazily, "You have to tell me! What's Applejack like?!" "Mah sister?" You nod rapidly, "Yes! Your sister! Is she as awesome as she is on the show?!" Apple Bloom stares at you with scarred eyes, "Please let me down." You quickly pull her in for another hug, "Tell me everything! I must know!" "Help! There's ah creep holding me!" Apple Bloom screamed out, trying to break your grasp. You hold onto her firmly, "Don't struggle, I only want to be your friend!" "Get ya hooves off mah sis'." Said a rough country voice behind you. You turn around to see Big Macintosh, a angry glare on his face. "Big Mac!" You yell out in delight, still holding tight to Apple Bloom. "Drop her." He said calmly. You gently put Apple Bloom down, who then gallops off as quickly as she can. You then turn your attention to Big Macintosh, who's currently giving you a stern look. Acting on impulse, you jump forward and throw a foreleg over his neck, "How ya doing big guy?" He growled and pulled back from you, "Don't ya touch me!" You take a step towards him, "Oh come on, I just want to show you friendship..." "Oh? Ah'll show ya friendship." He growled twisting around and pointing his back legs at you.. *POW* Five minutes later You let out a groan as you begin to try and sit back up. Big Macintosh sure has one hell of a buck, and the pounding in your head only strengthened that. You force yourself to your hooves and look towards Ponyville. Go to Ponyville. Page 44Food! That's the single thought that went through your head as you trotted towards the infamous bakery named 'Sugar Cube Corner'. Your stomach growled, reminding you that you haven't eaten since the night before. No matter, you know for sure that you can probably get some food here. You open the front door and smile happily when you see all the ponies chatting and eating. But, upon glancing around the room, you could see no signs of the over the top awesome pinkie party pony known as Pinkie Pie. You frown slightly and trot up to the counter. The pony behind the counter, who you know is Mr. Cake, looks up and smiles, "Hello sir, would you be interested in a free sample of our brand new muffin?" "Free?" You ask. He nodded and put a single blue muffin on the counter, "It's the newest flavor! Pinkie calls it Mucha-Bluey-Punch." "Mucha-Bluey-Punch?" You say, licking your lips. He pushes it towards you, "Mhmmm, try it. It's a big hit at the moment." "Thank you..." You mutter as you look down at the muffin. "So, this is the best muffin you have for free?" You ask. "MUFFIN!" Says a very familiar voice behind you. Before you can act, a grey pegasus flies in front of you and lands on your muffin face first. The pegasus then began to devour the poor muffin as you watched in complete horror. The pegasus whipped her hoof across her mouth and sat on the counter, eyes looking in two different directions. "Ditzy!" Mr. Cake said in a annoyed tone. Ditzy blinked and looked around, "Where am I? Wasn't I just at my house? Huh." Before anyone could ask her any questions, she jumped off the counter and trotted away, leaving you confused. "Sorry about that. If's not Pinkie Pie, it's another thing." Mr. Cake said with a slight chuckle. You sigh and decide to get back on task, "It's fine, but do you know where Pinkie Pie is?" Mr. Cake furrow's his brow for a second before shrugging, "I haven't seen Pinkie since this morning." "Do you know where she went?" He shakes his head, "Sorry, she just left without warning. She did make a statement about Canterlot though." Canterlot, you should really go there and see if you can find any of the mane six. Go back to town square.
