Chapter 1: Arrival to Earth

The Mane six were bored. They were tired of being called to save their town from ultimate destruction constantly, since they were the bearers of the elements of harmony. After their last enemy was defeated, they could hardly move after fighting for what seemed like hours. They were all gathered in Twilight's castle, discussing about what to do now.

"I CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE! IF WE GET ANOTHER CALL FROM CELESTIA AGAIN, I WILL PUNCH HER SILLY!" Rainbow complained to no one in particular.

Her friends nodded in agreement. They all felt that Celestia was calling them more often than someone else.

"I agree with you, Rainbow." Twilight said. "We need to contact her on what we are about to do."

"And what would that be?" Applejack complimented.

"Well." Twilight said with enthusiasm. "We're going on a trip to Earth."

"WHAT!!!" Everypony else shouted.

"Its for the better, girls." Reasoned Twilight. "However, we won't be in our human forms when we are there. We will stay in our pony forms the entire trip."

Twilight, after calling for Spike to contact Celestia when they leave, explained that they all are going to many places across the USA. Then, they will report their trip to Celestia when they get back.

"Um, Twilight?" Fluddershy said, in a somewhat quiet tone. "I'm very worried about this trip. What if we get noticed by the humans? Oh, I can't bear to see their faces looking at me."

"Nothing to worry about, Fluttershy. The author of this story will not put us in any dangerous situations." Pinkie noted, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.

Pinkie did have a tendency to break the fourth wall, which many ponies couldn't explain.

"Pinkie, what do you mean, the author?" Applejack said.

"Oh, the author. He's new to FIMfiction. He goes by mandolin15 and his real name is-"

The last part of the sentence was beautifully cut off by the author.

"Come on! Why did he had to cut me off? All the time, its this author doing this and this author doing that, its annoying!" Pinkie said.

Sorry Pinkie. This is the first try, for me actually.

"Pinkie, enough with the fourth wall breaking, okay? Its gettin' on my nerves. Now, continue Mr. Author." Said Applejack.

Thank you. Sorry folks, the fourth wall breaking will be used later. Now, back to the action. Ahem. Back to the action!

"Oh! Were very sorry for that silence, darling." Rarity said.

"So Twilight, have you researched any exciting places to go to?" questioned Fluttershy.

"Yes, I have. These "places" are called amusement parks, where many forms of entertainment exist. A few of these have unique attractions that other parks don't have."

"Well, are there many types of attractions, perchance?"

Twilight was aghast, but explained that there types that are included but not limited to: Roller coasters, Simulators, Theater Presentations, Thrill rides, kiddie rides, etc.

"Oh,Twilight. Is there any chance there is food there? I hope there is many types of food to eat." Pinkie Pie said.

"Um, Yes Pinkie. There is food. And a good amount too, since thousands of park patrons enter the park daily, often finding places to eat when taking a break."

The conversation continued into the night, with topics ranging from the history of the parks to the names of every single attraction, old and new, and informally detailed, to the arrogantly explanation of what happens to somepony if they get sick during or after they ride the attraction. When the conversation ended, they all decided to get some rest, since they would be leaving for Earth tomorrow morning. At dawn, the Mane six packed their saddlebags, ready for their trip. They all grouped up in an open field, which would be their departure point. Items that were packed in the saddlebags ranged from necessary items (i.e. toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo etc.) to the extremely random (Party Cannon, Daring Do Books, and spell books).

"Rarity, did you pack more than you needed to?" Applejack said.

"Oh, Applejack. There are things like a fashionable pony like me needs to pack before a long and tiring trip to someplace that we aren't familiar with."

Meanwhile, Twilight was busy getting a spell ready to open a portal to Earth with their location at the right coordinates.

"Now If I'm correct we should be landing in a state called Pennsylvania, in the town of Philadelphia."

"Twilight, its pronounced as Fillydelphia, right?"

"I know that Fluttershy. But in the human world, that's what's its called. And when we do get there, be prepared to be seen by people called Bronies, who know a thing or two about us."

"Bronies?" Rainbow replied. "I know who they are. All they do is go to conventions, wear cosplays of us, watch us every week on their "TV's", and write fanfics about us as well!"

Everypony was shocked, even the author was too.

"Why is he still here?" Twilight said.

She then broke the fourth wall, which she didn't realize she was doing so.

"Please, Mr. Author. Would you kindly leave us alone until the next chapter. You can do your crazy antics then, okay?"

Fine.

"Aright everypony. Ready to go to Earth."

"Yes!"

Twilight's horn glowed and with a flash, a portal appeared. They all jumped in, save for Pinkie who just bounced into the portal with a smile on her face. For what seemed like hours, they finally exited the portal, tumbling onto the ground in a heap.

"Ugh. Next time we should use an much smoother means of transport" said Rainbow Dash.

When they all got to their hooves, they all looked around for where they are.

"According to this map" said Twilight, "we are close to our first location."

"And what would that be, darling?" said Rarity.

Twilight, who turned around with excitement, said,

"DORNEY PARK!"

There was a long silence. The Mane six then continued walking to their destination.

"Um, Twilight. What is this "Dorney Park"?" asked Applejack.

"Its our first park that will be going to. Come on everypony. The park is in sight, look!"

As indeed she was right, for at that moment the skyline of the park came into view. With glee, they all sprinted towards the park entrance, ready to enjoy their day at Dorney Park.

Chapter 2: Dorney Park

After the Mane 6 reached the park entrance, which looked to be attended, they soon were shocked to find out that the gates were closed and locked. In front of the row of gates was a huge crowd of humans waiting to gain entry to the park. One human, who was a Brony, spotted the group and shouted,  squealing in delight.

"OH MY GOD! ITS THE MAIN CAST FROM MLP FIM!!!!"

A large group of Bronies, at least 10 or 15, charged at the Mane 6. After a few moments of what seemed like terror, Twilight finally got the group to control themselves.

"What the heck is going on?" Twilight questioned to the group.

One of the Bronies, presumably the leader, said,"Our group here is visiting the park for the day and we would never have thought that you all would be here in the flesh! Its physically impossible!"

"Okay, and what is the reason why all those humans are waiting to enter?"

He pointed towards a sign posted on one of the gates, it read:

CLOSED

PARK OPENS AT 10:00AM

SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE

"OH COME ON! DID WE GET HERE TOO EARLY OR TOO LATE!?" Rainbow screamed.

"Rainbow, the sign is true. The park doesn't open until 10:00am."

"Well Twilight. What time is it right now?"

"Um. Its 9:30am. And calm down. Since the park opens in 30 minutes, we can simply wait until the park opens."

"Uh, Twilight. Do we all have tickets?"

"Yes Fluttershy. I got us all tickets to all the parks we're going to visit on this trip."

Soon, a nearby clock struck 10:00am and the gates were opened. The Mane 6 each turned in their tickets and entered the park.

"Twilight!"

Pinkie then inhaled and suddenly spoke faster than a cheetah.

"WhatisthefirstrideweregoingonIhopeitsnottoscarysinceitwillmakeustramatizedAlsocanwetryouttherollercoasterstheygotreallygoodcolorschemes..."

"Mumbler!"

Everypony was shocked at what Twilight had said, and so was the author who surprisingly decided to come back and view the action.

Hello again Mane 6, ready to enjoy the park.

"Mr. Author. What are you doing here?"

And why are you, Ms. Rarity, are breaking the fourth wall. You know this is not the kind of thing you do.

Rarity gasped, fuming with anger.

"I have every right to do so, even though I don't choose to execute it very often. Pinkie mostly is the one who does it."

Well, you all enjoy your day. Me typing it up of course. Bye.

"Ugh, that was rude of him."

Later, after they got a copy of the park map, the Mane six decided on the first ride, Hydra the Revenge.

"Its shown here that it is a Bolliger & Mabillard Floorless coaster model with seven inversions." said Twilight.

"SEVEN INVERSIONS! That is too much for me, Twilight."

"Fluttershy, you'll be fine. Your strapped into a restraint system which is perfectly safe."

The girls entered the queue line. The line was quite short and they got to the coaster train in 10 seconds flat.

"Mr. Author! Stop taking my catchphrases!"

Sorry Rainbow Dash.

When they all exited the ride after experiencing it, the results were very unpleasant, for them at least. Rarity was sobbing over losing her hair braid, Fluttershy was shaking uncontrollably, and both Rainbow Dash and Applejack were both in the restroom, puking loudly since they got sick during the ride. After the ordeal, with Rainbow Dash and Applejack feeling better (What? Their cartoon characters! They get better faster), they tried out the other roller coasters. They first rode Possessed, an Intamin Inverted Launch model which didn't end well since the ride experience left the Mane six with bruised plots and messed-up manes. Thus, they skipped the Steel Force and Stinger Coasters choosing to ride both coasters after they had lunch.

"According to the map, there aren't many places for us to eat."

"What do you mean Twilight? There's plenty for us."

"I don't want to argue Rainbow, but a few of these establishments sell meat in their food, which ponies don't consume."

"Oh! What about this place." Pinkie said.

The place she was pointing to on the map was Patio Pizza, an Italian style eating establishment.

"Great Idea, Pinkie," said Rarity, "But can we eat this "Pizza" as they call it?"

Twilight smiled, "As indeed we can. Since the food is only a mixture of cheese, flour, and tomatoes, its perfectly safe to eat."

With that, they entered, purchased their food (Rarity had some difficulty of choosing the right toppings), ate their food, and soon were on their way to Steel Force and then to Stinger.

"Um, Twilight. Just..um...what did you tell us earlier about not eating before riding a rollercoaster or a thrill ride."

"Fluttershy, calm down. We can get through this together."

"I'm not riding it."

Twilight was about to go into a fit of rage, but backed off. She kindly convinced Fluttershy to ride the kidde rides and wait for the rest of them to finish riding the two big coasters.

"Alright, I'll do it. But don't get sick on the ride."

(Several godforsaken minutes later, this happened.)

"Fluttershy?! Where is that pony? I thought she would be in this area of the park."

Rainbow Dash was hovering in the air, surveying the Planet Snoopy section of the park.  It was the only section with the kiddie rides, intended for children who are not yet tall enough to ride the larger coasters and rides. The Mane six, excluding Fluttershy, had an absolute great time on Steel Force but not on Stinger which, sadly enough, they all threw up their lunch while on the ride. After constant apologies, they went on the parks major thrill rides, which managed to somehow get their energy back, and soon headed to the Planet Snoopy area to look for Fluttershy.

"Rainbow, she might be on one of the rides enjoying herself."

Twilight was wrong though. After turning a corner, they saw Fluttershy crying on a park bench.

"Fluttershy, darling! Thank goodness your alright."

But Fluttershy continued to cry profusely.

"What's wrong, Fluttershy?" Twilight asked.

Fluttershy responded between sobs.

"Well, I...entered...this area of the park and a huge crowd....of children....whom I believed were fans of the show... they noticed me and ran over to me. They...patted my fur and gave me constant hugs"

"Well that's not that bad. Getting a hug isn't painful."

"Your wrong Pinkie. A group dared me if....I could ride the kiddie coaster 10 times before puking. I did so...and when I got off after the tenth time....I accidentally puked onto a young girl's shirt. The girl...she began to cry...very loudly.... i couldn't calm her down....The parents of the child saw what happened. The child's father, apparently I found out he was bad tempered....He hit me...across the face....told me to leave his daughter alone. I fled....from the situation, sobbing in dismay. I then found this park bench, and now I sit here, crying about what had happened to me."

Everypony was saddened by what Fluttershy had said.

"Fluttershy. That man was trying to protect his daughter. He had no idea who you were."

"Your right Twilight. Come on girls, we should leave the park."

"WHAT! We haven't ridden all the rides yet!"

"Rainbow, Fluttershy is right. We did have a long day and we need to get some rest. We are heading to another park tomorrow."

So after trotting towards the exit and leaving the park, they got the shock of their life when they found the Author sitting in what looked like a car.

Hi girls. If you want, I can get you a hotel room for the night so you'll all be rested for tomorrow.

"Thank you, Mr. Author. But why are you doing this, darling?"

Well, since this is almost the end of the second chapter, I should do you all a favor for once. Oh, and Fluttershy. You know that man who hit you. Well, he's in jail for a week for what he did. Don't panic, his daughter is fine.

"Okay Mr. Author. Did you find us a hotel?"

Yes I did. You all are going to love it.

After driving the Mane six to the hotel, they ooohed and aaahed at the place.

"Its perfect, Mr. Author."

Don't mention it Twilight. Your bags are already in the room.

The girls then trotted into the hotel, ready to go to their hotel room and get a good nights rest, but the Author stopped them.

Um. I have one request for you all. Can I please be a part of this trip?

Twilight thought for a moment. "Hmmm. Let me...NO! You can't."

What! Why?

"Since I have read some fanfics which have the Author involved in his story, this one you will never join. Goodnight."

What? How? But? F***! Fine! You all have your "little" trip. But mark my words, Twilight. I WILL JOIN THIS STORY IF ITS THE LAST THING I DO!

The Author stormed off and got back into his car. He thought to himself.

"Oh. They will be in a big surprise tomorrow when they reach the Cedar Fair Park known to us as....CEDAR POINT!!"

Chapter 3: Cedar Point

The next morning, in the hotel breakfast area, the Mane six were enjoying their breakfast while watching the national TV news channel Good Mourning America. Suddenly, a news correspondent appeared on the screen with a feeling of worry.

"BREAKING NEWS FROM OHIO! Sources say that an author on FIMFiction.net named mandolin15 had just recently been seen near Cedar Point, Ohio as a cartoon pony OC. Witnesses, mostly Bronies from the Sandusky area, were lost for words as the creature, which had wings, was seen yesterday mourning flying towards the park entrance. A witness, who remains to be anonymous, recounts that he saw the strange animal in the sky as he was driving to Cedar Point. Results of the sighting were in a shocking variety. Drivers who noticed the creature ended up in rear-end crashes and some people panicked. The situation is currently under investigation since the author has sent a message quote 'I wonder what would be their (the mane 6) reaction when they see me at the entrance gates as my OC. I promise them (the main 6) no harm'. Good Mourning America, signing off."

The Mane six were shocked beyond belief. So were the other people in the hotel watching as well. The crowd of hotel guests stared at the group with fright. Twilight, who is quite known to be brave, trotted forward and talked to the hotel guests.

"Okay everyone. Attention please. This is all a misunderstanding. That news story you just saw involved a person who knows more about us than you all do. We will safely track him down and we promise this won't happen again."

The hotel guests remained quiet. Then, the owner of the hotel stepped forward.

"Um. If I must inform you. But we never had guests like your kind before. When I saw you guys enter the hotel, I almost panicked. But since there was no sign of fear, I allowed you all to stay for the night. After I heard of the news story, I arranged for a taxi escort to the airport which you will all then board a plane bound for Sandusky, Ohio. When you arrive, find that creature and make sure he becomes your responsibility."

"Thank you sir, but..."

"Its the least I can do. Oh, and enjoy that trip of yours."

The Main six thanked the hotel owner, checked out, and set off in the taxi with their bags in the trunk.

(Several hours later around 8:00am)

Eventually, they arrived in Sandusky, Ohio at a hotel located near the park. Once they had reached the hotel front desk, they asked for a room.

"Actually" said the desk clerk,"there's already a room for the six of you."

"WHAT! HOW DID WE GET ONE ALREADY!?" Rainbow shouted.

The desk clerk continued, "Please, no yelling in the hotel. Anyway, if you're wondering. The registration of the room is under 'mandolin15', which is room 502."

The Mane six quickly ran up the stairs of the hotel to the fifth floor. Applejack, who reached the room first, grabbed at the door handel, which was somehow unlocked, and opened the door. The Mane six stormed into the room and gasped at the sight. On the other side of the room eyeing them was a green furred-brown mane pegasus sitting on one of the rooms' two beds.

"MANDOLIN15!!!" They all screamed.

"Well, I didn't expect an entrance like that to happen. You should have seen the look on your faces. Let me reintroduce myself. I'm mandolin15, the author of this fanfic and currently in my OC form."

"Wait. How did you become your OC?" said Pinkie.

"Very simple really. When I dropped you all at the hotel and went to close the trunk of my car, I came upon a glass vile that somehow fell out of one of your bags. I quickly checked into a hotel room near the border of Ohio and without thinking, drank the vile. When I woke up next mourning and looked in the mirror, I saw myself as my OC. I looked at the label on the vile which read 'human into pony potion'. i almost squealed with-."

"ENOUGH!" Twilight shouted. "Its 9:00 and we don't want to be late for the park opening."

Mandolin15 was quick to criticize. (yes, I'm now officially in the story now. Get used to it)

"Fine, let me finish. I managed to quickly get used to my Pegasus self and flew all the way to Sandusky myself. There, I checked into this hotel for all seven of us to stay while we enjoy our trip."

"Darling, you mean you are now part of our trip?"

"Exactly Rarity. Now, lets head on to the park."

The Mane six followed the author from the hotel and, after checking out of the hotel, arranged a special police escort so that they can enter the park like famous actors do, enter the park for free. Once the group arrived at the entrance plaza and their bags safely left back in the limo, they stood in awe as a rollercoaster train containing thrill seekers passed right over their heads.

"Ladies, that is the newest coaster in the park. Gatekeeper. One of the tallest wingrider coasters in B&M's lineup of coasters."

Mandolin15 then saw that the Mane six were confused on what he said.

"Um..What is a wingrider?" Fluttershy asked.

"Ugh. You girls really need to know your information on amusement parks. The wingrider coaster is a type of coaster train that has riders of 4 placed in sets of two side by side."

They all continued into the park and went on with their day. Since they were famous, as many of the park patrons noticed the group immediately, they all got a chance to ride all of the rollercoasters. Twilight was busy writing information about each rollercoaster, if she wanted to have copies of the coasters built somewhere in Equestria. Pinkie Pie had challenged Rainbow Dash on who could scream the loudest on Top Trill Dragster (their manes were both messed up after the ride). Applejack, as usual, took Fluttershy to the area of the park where the kiddy rides were. Mandolin15 however, took front seat rides with Rarity on the 4 large coasters in the park. After riding them, Rarity was not amused when she saw him laughing uncontrollably.

"Darling, why are you laughing."

"Well. Its that your mane. Its messed up."

Rarity then felt her mane and shrieked.

"This is the WORST, POSSIBLE, THING!!!"

"Rarity, with all do respect. The Bronies are already tired of you saying that line. You've said it countless times in other fanfics."

"Mandolin15?"

"Yes?"

"Did you just break the fourth wall again?"

"Actually, I believe that I put a WHOLE into it." (cue studio audience laugh track)

"What was that noise?"

"Nothing."

Mandolin15 looked at his watch.

"Well, its close to closing time. Today, the park does close at 5:00pm. We should find everypony else."

Once the Mane six were regrouped, with tons of park merchandise in tow, they were surprised on receiving yet another police escort.

"Um, Mandolin15."

"Yes Twilight?"

"You know the news story that you were featured in. Did it get cleared up?"

"Yes it did. The news broadcast was liked by thousands of people, even the president."

Twilight's mouth dropped to the ground in shock.

The police escort took the seven ponies to the famous Hotel Breakers on the Cedar Point property.

"Girls," Mandolin15 said, "this is where we're staying for the night. As a matter of fact, I will now establishing myself as your guardian and will help you all finish your trip in style."

"You don't suppose you have enough money for the rest of the trip?"

"Applejack, I do indeed. I have a bank account containing millions of dollars under my name. Alright, let's get some sleep. The next stop is Kings Island in Mason, Ohio. They got a excellent ride selection that can't be beat."

And so, they all entered the hotel room, got ready for bed, and went to sleep. Meanwhile, Mandolin15 was thinking hard about the situation.

"I can't believe I joined this story for no apparent reason. Why did I? I'm a fanfic writer in a story with the Mane six. So what do you guys think how I did?"

There was no response. The studio audience who laughed earlier had left. Mandolin15 sighed and turned out the light. Tomorrow was going to be very interesting for him.
