Story of a Brony, who gets teleported to Equestria after taking a dump.

This is the story of a common brony, who gets somehow teleported to Equestria, after taking a dump. Sounds strange? Why not give it a read?

YES it is a heavily overused concept and a self-insert, but does that make it a bad story? I don't think so...surprising turns of events included...

Announcement: It has begun. The sequel is on:

Chapter 1: Off to a bad start

Chapter 1: Off to a bad start

I never had a very special life. I’m what most people would call a nerd. I don’t like this term but honestly, it fits quite well. I look like the stereotypical computer-freak: glasses, long hair that is always in a mess, always wearing a hoodie, and hardly leaving my room. I’m also a Brony. Means I spent quite some time watching MLP episodes online. When I finally finished both seasons, I got interested in fanfics, but I would have never imagined to be part of one. I know that this is a clumsy way to begin a story, but who cares? I’m just here to tell you a story. My story. The story of a Brony in Equestria…

My story begins at a boring place. To be exact, the front door of my house. I was about to do the unthinkable…leaving my house!

It wasn’t because of the beautiful weather outside. I actually don’t like when it’s sunny. It’s simply too hot. I like it dark and cool. You might call me Gollum now, but I don’t give a fuck. Anyways, the reason why I left my home before sunset was as simple as it was annoying.

My computer just broke down and it was Sunday, so there was no way to get it repaired before tomorrow. As you would probably expect, my favourite hobby was to do random stuff on the internet. You know, like watching different TV-shows, movies, or just killing time on Skype (but no Facebook, because Facebook is evil!). So without a computer, I had to follow my second favourite hobby: reading. Problem was that I already read every single book in my home, so I had to make my way over to the local library.

It was terribly hot outside and after about 50 meters I already regretted my decision. But back then I didn’t know that it would be the best decision I’ve ever made. However, I arrived at the library, covered in sweat and already having suicide thoughts. There was just too much heat for my body to handle

“This day can’t get any worse...” I thought.

Then I made the one decision that would change my whole life: I decided to take a dump.

I politely asked the elderly lady behind the table at the entrance where to find the toilet. She pointed me the way and gave me a warm smile.

I quickly rushed into the bathroom and locked the door. Then I sat down and...uhm...yeah...let go of some unnecessary weight...you know what I mean.

Suddenly a flash lit up the toilet. It was so bright that I had to turn away my head, or otherwise it would blind me. When I finally felt the room darken again I opened my eyes a bit and couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Floating right in front of me was a...well...Let’s just call it a swarm of pieces of broken glass floating in midair.

I’m not an idiot, and I read enough science-fiction novels to know that this was some kind of portal. I also remembered the first rule about portals: If they appear out of randomly nowhere, don’t touch them under any circumstances, or you might get teleported into a dimension inhabited by giant insects that will immediately begin to eat your genitals...or something like that.

Anyways, I checked the situation and concluded that the portal blocked the way to the door and that I wouldn’t get passed it without touching it. The only other way out would be the small window right over the flushing tank. So as I didn’t know if the portal-thingy would ever disappear, I decided to try to get out through that window (but first I cleaned my butt with some toilet paper).

I carefully stepped on the flushing tank. It seemed to hold my weight. Then I tried to push the window open.

“Damnit, it opens to the inside!” I realised.

What happened next was a result of my own stupidity. Instead of just stepping down from the flushing tank and pulling the window open, I opened it while still standing on the tank. The result was that the tank broke under my weight and I fell backwards right into the portal. And what was even worse was that I forgot to put my pants back on before I tried to get outside.

My last thoughts were: Oh great, not only I'm going to be eaten alive by humongous bugs , but also with my pants down.”

A bright flash was the last thing I saw before everything around me got dark...

Chapter 2: Thunderstruck?

Chapter 2: Thunderstruck?

Twilight stepped out of her house. It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and Ponyville seemed quiet and peaceful. All in all it seemed like an average day for Twilight.

“I hope today won’t be too exhausting. I’m so tired I could already fall asleep right now.” The purple mare said to herself.

The last weeks had been quite difficult for Twilight. After saving her brother’s wedding by exposing the evil plans of Chrysalis, the vicious queen of the changelings, Twilight hadn’t got much sleep. Not only had she been partying at the wedding the whole night, but also she also was suffering from nightmares.

Chrysalis had been defeated, but unlike the former threats to Equestria, like Discord, who had been turned into stone, she could return at any time, seeking her revenge. And exactly this caused Twilight’s nightmares.

“Maybe I’ll find a nice and quiet place in the park, where I can read and relax a bit. I would stay at home, but this day is simply too beautiful to stay inside. Who knows when the pegasi would decide to set off a storm...” she thought, as she walked down to the park.

At that time, she didn’t know that this day would change her life in more than one way.

After she arrived at the park she lay down below a big oak and began to read. Everything seemed quiet and calm. So quiet that Twilight slowly drifted away into peaceful slumber.

But not long. Suddenly an incredibly loud bang roused her from her sleep. Twilight jumped to her hooves and lokked around nervously. Her heart was beating at an insane speed.

“What happened? Did one of the pegasi unintentionally set off a thunder cloud? No that, didn’t sound like thunder at all.” She thought.

While Twilight was still thinking of an explanation she suddenly saw something on a hill close to the tree that attracted her attention. As she took a closer look, her heart stopped beating for a moment. Lying there was a light green unicorn stallion. The ground around him was charred, like it had been on fire, but he seemed unharmed.

“Oh my gosh, is he...dead?” Twilight called out louder than she intended.

She calmed down a bit, when she noticed that his chest was still moving up and down very slowly.

“At least he's alive. He seems to be unconscious. How did he even get here? It looks like he had been struck by a lightning, but he isn’t harmed at all.”

Twilight didn’t know what to do.

She nudged him with her hoof. Nothing. She nudged him again, a little bit harder this time. Still nothing. Suddenly she had an idea. She came very close to the stallion’s ear and yelled. Still no reaction.

“What shall I do? I can’t leave you here.” Twilight sighed.

This was supposed to be her day off and now she had to take care of an unconscious stallion.

“If you can’t answer me then I can at least have a closer look at you.” Twilight said to the unicorn, who, of course, didn’t respond.

He looked like an average stallion. His light green coat and the long brown mane weren’t really noticeable. He also wore a pair of metallic-blue glasses, which seemed to be too small for his face, but still fitting him well. But something about this Pony was special and it wasn’t the fact that he was unconscious.

“I can’t leave him that way and if he won’t wake up I guess I’ll have to take him home.”

Twilight looked around for somepony who could help her. Unfortunately, she was the only one in the park at this time of the day.

“Looks like I have to carry you on my own. But wait...I could also teleport us back to the library. I hope it won’t harm you.”

Twilight was referring to when she had to teleport her and Spike away after being cornered by a bunch of Ponies, being eager for her second golden ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala. Back then the spell had quite an electrifying effect on the little dragon. Although her magic skills had improved highly since that time, there was always a possibility that something could go wrong, especially when teleporting others.

Twilight decided to try it. She focused her mind on herself and the stallion and performed the spell.

It all went well. One glimpse of an eye later she was back in her library, the unconscious unicorn lying next to her on the floor. Twilight used her magic to lift the stallion up onto her spare bed.

“You better have a good explanation for this, Mister.” Twilight thought with a grim expression on her face. “You just ruined my day off.”

Twilight realised what she just thought and regretted it immediately.

“Twilight! Get a hold of yourself! What were you thinking? He clearly needs your help. This is not the time to be selfish. I should probably go and ask Nurse Redheart if she could come over and take a look at him. He doesn’t seem like he is going to wake up any time soon.”

Twilight looked for Spike, but he was still asleep. She hoped that the little dragon wouldn’t be too confused because of the stranger in her bed...or even draw wrong conclusions from the situation. The last thing she needed to deal with was Spike spreading rumors about her, having a coltfriend. Twilight blushed a little. No, she didn’t need a coltfriend. Coltfriends require time. Time she didn’t have.

Twilight banned the stupid thoughts from her mind and left the library and walked up to Ponyville’s hospital.

After arriving at the hospital, she asked for Nurse Redheart. Nurse Redheart wasn’t better than any other nurse at the hospital, but Twilight knew her from previous events, which made her her first choice.

The mare at the counter called for Nurse Redheart through her microphone. A few minutes later she arrived at the counter.

“What’s the matter Twilight?” the white mare asked.

“Well, it’s not easy to explain. I went for a walk in the park and there I found an unconscious unicorn stallion lying on the ground. He didn’t seem hurt so I took him to my house, but I don’t know how to wake him up.” Twilight tried to sum up the previous events.

“Have you already tried to splash water in his face?”

“Uhm...erm...no. Is this what you do in such cases? I never read about this method in any book about medicine.”

“Let’s just say it almost never fails.” The nurse sighed.

“Well, thank you Nurse.” Twilight said and turned to the exit.

“If he seems to be hurt, just bring him here.” Nurse Redheart yelled after Twilight.

When Twilight got back to the library, she was quite surprised. Not only was a certain purple dragon awake but also a certain green stallion...

END OF CHAPTER 2

Chapter 4: Close encounters of the third kind

Chapter 4: Close encounters of the third kind

“...Doctor Whooves!” Twilight called out.

“What now?” I asked, although I already knew what she got at.

“He is like you. He has no aura too!” Twilight was obviously excited.

“No what?”

This time I honestly had no idea what she was talking about. Such a thing like “aura” was neither mentioned in the series, nor was it popular in the fandom.

“It’s like a magic force field that surrounds everypony. Only unicorns can sense it. Everypony has its own unique aura.” Twilight explained with a proud smile.

She obviously enjoyed it to know something I didn’t know.

“So it’s like a fingerprint!” I tried to impress her by showing my readiness of mind.

“A what now?” Twilight asked clueless.

“Just forget it.” I sighed.

I already expected Lyra Heartstrings to appear out of nowhere, like: “Someone said fingers?” Fortunately that didn’t happen.

“You wanted me to meet this Doctor Whooves, forgot?” I tried to come back to her actual thought.

“Yes, yes of course, but there’s one problem. What do we tell other Ponies. I’m quite sure they want to know who you are and where you come from and I think not everypony would believe your incredible story.”

“Like me...” Spike interrupted again after remaining silent for quite some time.

“Spike! Keep silent! Where was I?” Twilight thought for a brief moment. “What’s your name anyway? After all that happened I still don’t know how to call you.”

“Well my name would be...Quick, make up something! Something that matches your cutie-mark.”

I looked at my flank. My cutie-mark obviously seemed to be...a pencil.

“That fits, I guess...”

I forgot to mention before. I like drawing quite a lot and I’m pretty good at it. I am, what people would call a natural. Not that I could draw incredibly realistic persons or animals, but I had some skills and a sense of the space I need for drawing and such things. All in all I could draw some real neat pictures without having a model in front of me.

“Quick,..a name that has something to do with drawing. Pencil Draw...no! Pencil Line...no!"

I hated my actual name and I wanted to start a new identity here in Equestria. Then I had an idea.

“I used to call myself “Xenosaurus” on various forums and “Xenos” is a Greek word, which means “stranger” or something similar. I guess that fits perfectly."

“...Xenos!” I finally finished my sentence.

“Xenos huh? You humans do have strange names. Is it really your actual name?.” Twilight asked.

“Let’s just say it’s the name I prefer to use...” I answered with a light smile on my face.

“I see...I won’t ask any further questions then.” Twilight said and smiled too. ”Shall we go now?”

“Sure.”

When I passed Spike he whispered: “I am watching you!”

I couldn’t help but grin. He was just too adoreable when trying to look serious.

Spike noticed that and gave me a dirty look. I immediately tried to control my facial expression.

“This is not the time for making enemies...” I thought.

As we went outside Twilight warned me:

“We might meet some of my friends on the way. They might act a bit weird sometimes, but they are nice Ponies.”

“I know, Twilight.” I gave her a bright smile.

“Oh, I forgot...TV-show and so on.” She smiled back.

Right on cue a pile of pink cotton candy bounced right in my direction. Before I could even open my mouth I was...well...pinkied.

“Oh my gosh, are you new you must be new because I don’t know you and I know eeeeeeverypony in Ponyville I’m Pinkie Pie and you are???” I noticed that she didn’t even bother to inhale.“ Do you like parties of course you like parties everyone likes parties I-“

“PINKIE !” Twilight interrupted the pink mare.

“Nice to meet you Pinkie Pie, I’m Xenos and yes I AM new in town.” I tried to sound self-confidently.

“You do have a strange name don’t you? Where do you come from? Do I know it?”

Although I thought to be prepared for this, I was overwhelmed by the pink mare’s hyperactivity.

“Let’s just say I come from far away...” I tried to cut the conversation short.

“I never heard of this FAR AWAY. Where is it?” Pinkie asked innocently.

*facehoof*

“Pinkie we really have to go now!” Twilight insisted.

“OkeyDokeyLokey, Twi. And for you Mister I will throw a WELCOME PARTYYYY.”

I expected that.

“See you later.” She said and bounced away just to come back a second later and say: “Oh, I almost forgot...” Then she jumped right into the air, letting out a long gasp and then quickly galloping away.

“I’m really sorry she is just being-“

“-Pinkie, I know,” I finished the sentence for her and we both laughed.

Then we continued our way to meet Doctor Whooves.

Twilight told me that the Doctor was living somewhere outside Ponyville together with Ditzy Doo the mailmare of Ponyville. Although I already knew that I was kinda surprised that she actually was the mailmare, because that has never been confirmed in the official series.

“Do they exist because there is a cartoon of them, or is it that because they exist there is a cartoon of them?” I thought.

I hoped that the Doctor would have some satisfying theories for this phenomenon.

Finally we arrived at Ditzy’s home.

“Is anyone here?” Twilight called out.

Suddenly a grey and yellow cannonball hit me right out of nowhere and threw me on the ground.

“I’m so sorry. I just don’t know what went wrong!”

“It’s okay Der...eh...Ditzy.”I mumbled, still disordered by our crash, but still alert enough not to use her fan-given name. I didn’t know if she would take it as an insult.

Ditzy Doo looked at me with excite. I was immediately hypnotized by her oddly crossed eyes. They seemed to move constantly in circles.

“How comes you know my name?” she asked innocently.

“Twilight told me. We came to see the Doctor. Is he anywhere around?” I asked the grey pegasus.

“Of course he is. He lives here in Ponyville.” Ditzy giggled.

“No I mean, is he here now, in your house?” I asked a bit more impatient. Ditzy really was a bit slow minded.

“Nope, he isn’t in the house.” Ditzy giggled again.

“Then where is he?!” This pony started to get on my nerves.

“He is, in fact, in the garden.” Ditzy gave me a bright smile.

*facehoof*

“Come with me, I’ll show you were.” Ditzy said and trotted towards the house.

As we followed her, Twilight whispered:

“She acts a bit simple sometimes, but she’s one of the nicest mares in Ponyville.”

“Already noticed, Twilight, already noticed...” I whispered back.

Ditzy led us to small garden where a blue phone box was standing. This confirmed my theory.

“This universe actually IS physically effected by our imagination...or the other way round...”

Then a sepia brown Earth Pony stallion came out of the phone box. I tried to steal a glance at the inside, but couldn’t see anything.

Then the Pony began to talk with a distinct British accent:

“Ditzy, who is this? Haven’t I told you not to bring strangers here?”

END OF CHAPTER 4

Chapter 5: Meet the Doctor

Chapter 5: Meet the Doctor

Doctor Whooves stepped out of the TARDIS and noticed the three Ponies in front of him. One was Ditzy Doo, his reliable assistant. The second was Twilight Sparkle, the purple unicorn who represented the Element of Magic and who had saved Equestria with her friends two times so far. But who was the third one. A green unicorn stallion he had never seen before.

“Ditzy, who is this? Haven’t I told you not to bring strangers here?” He asked.

“They are no strangers. They knew who I was and they knew who you were, so they can’t be strangers, right?” Ditzy gave him her brightest smile.

He couldn’t be angry at Ditzy for long, she was just too friendly.

He sighed.

“So, Twilight, who is this Pony and what do you want from me?” He asked.

“I think it’d be better if he tells you himself. Let’s just say he and you have probably a lot in common.” Twilight explained.

“We do?” This was getting more and more interesting.

“At least I think so...” The green stallion added.

Twilight turned to the unicorn.

“I will go back to the library now. When you’re finished here you can come back at any time and we’ll see where you’ll during your stay in Ponyville.

Then Twilight left.

“I guess, I should go back to work now. There are still some letters to deliver.” Ditzy said. “See you, guys.”

Then she took off into the sky.

“So what did Twilight mean, when she said we would have something in common?” the Doctor asked.

Switch to Xenos

“...when she said we would have something in common?” The sepia coloured Pony asked.

“Well that’s kind of a long story.”

Then I began to tell him the same story I already told twice today. He listened obviously interested and even interrupted me to ask for details. When I finished I took a deep breath and then looked at him in expectation for a comment.

“That is indeed a fascinating story but I’m afraid I might not be able to help you. I didn’t arrive in this dimension the same way as you did.” He explained. “And to be exact I am not even a human being.”

“I know. You’re an extraterrestrial species, called “Timelord” and you come from the planet Gallifrey.” I told him.

“How did you-???” The expression of surprise on his face was priceless.

So I told him that there was not only a TV-show about Ponies, but also about him.

“This is what I wanted to talk about with you. How is it possible that the imagination of regular people in my universe has an effect on the reality in this universe? Is every universe just the imagination of another one? And if it was that way, doesn’t there have to be an original, non-fictional universe that started imagination?” I tried to explain my thoughts to him.

“This is indeed a complicated phenomenon, but I think I’m not capable of answering your questions. See, the TARDIS brought me here. Yet, I don’t know why. Although I own it, I can’t completely control it” He explained. “Oh I forgot to tell you what the TARDIS actually is.”

“It’s your time machine in which you can travel through time. It looks like a phone box and it’s bigger from the inside than from the outside. Don’t worry, I know enough about you.” I told him with a light smile.

It was kinda fun to see him surprised.

“Sorry, I’m just not used to the fact, that someone already knows everything about me. By the way, do you want to have a look? As you already know everything I can also show it to you.” He suggested.

“Sure, although I hope you’re not too disappointed if I’m not surpri-HOLY MOTHERFUCK THIS IS AWESOME!!!” I called out.

I’ve seen the series one or two times and knew what it would look like, but in reality it’s simply amazing. I went out and re-entered three times, to make sure that it wasn’t just an optical illusion.

I saw the Doctor’s proud smile and tried pull myself together again. I didn’t want to look like a brainless fanboy.

“I suppose, you are not surprised...” He said ironically.

When we left the TARDIS I spoke out a question that had been on my mind since Twilight left.

“What is your job here in Ponyville? I guess you need money for food and everything.” I asked.

“Well on the one hand I travel through time with Ditzy to save the world from different threats...”

“But you don’t get paid for this!” I interrupted.

“...and on the other hand” He continued, ignoring my objection. “ I help Ponies to repair things, by using this.”

He pulled out his famous Sonic-Screwdriver.

“And the money you earn by repairing is enough?” I asked.

“Well, there’s also Ditzy’s job as the mailmare. We share our income. She’s the nicest person, or to be exact, Pony I have ever met.”

I noticed a slight change in his voice when he finished his last sentence.

“I wonder if he’s actually in a relationship with Derpy...” I thought.

I tried to make an innocent hint.

“So you and Ditzy, you are like...very good friends?”

“Yes, yes...I mean NO not in that particular way. She’s my assistant and I appreciate her, but nothing more.” He quickly tried to clarify, although his face turned bright red while talking.

However, I decided not to go further. This Doctor Whooves seemed like a nice. I wondered if we could become something like friends.

The next few hours we spent discussing physical and philosophical matters. I really enjoy smart discussions and he really knew a lot.

“I wonder if Twilight is also that much fun to hang around with.”

I caught myself wondering if Twilight had a boyfriend (or coltfriend, to be exact).

“Quit it! After all she’s still a Pony. You probably wouldn’t even have a chance.”

But still, I had this feeling that I liked that purple mare more than I would ever admit. And it wasn’t because of the fact that she was part of the best cartoon-show ever.

“It’s getting late. I should probably go back to Twilight’s house. She must be wondering why it took so long.” I said.

“You might be right. You can visit me at any time. If the TARDIS is here, then I am too. If it's not, then I’m probably about to save the world.” He laughed.

I said goodbye and went back to the library.

When I entered it was pitch-dark.

“Hello? Twilight? Spike? Is anyone here?” I asked.

Suddenly, all the lights turned on...

END OF CHAPTER 5

Chapter 6: First Contact

Chapter 6: First Contact

„SURPRISE!!!“

„Aw, hell no!”

“Where you surprised of course you were surprised this is a Surprise-Party so you have to be surprised otherwise it would just be a normal party…” the pink mare started jabbering without inhaling.

“Uhm…thank you…Pinkie. It’s…uhm…really nice.” I smiled awkwardly.

“I knew you would like it. Come on everypony let’s PARTYYYYYY!”

I sighed.

“Let’s get this over with.” I thought.

There’s another thing you should probably know about me. I’m not really into parties or celebrations. I don’t like crowds of people (Ponies!). I like it quiet and peaceful, not…Pinkie…

“Maybe I’ll find a quiet place upstairs…”

Unfortunately there were lots of Ponies, who were eager to get to know me.

“Well it can’t get that bad. Probably I’ll get to know the other Mane Six members.”

I actually met them. However it didn’t go like I expected it.

After introducing myself to a few random Ponies I met Rarity. I was already preparing to say my common phrase: “Hello, my name is Xenos and I’m new in Ponyville. I come from far away. Nice to meet you.” However I didn’t even get a chance to finish a single sentence. Why? Well that’s why:

“Oh you must be Twilight’s new coltfriend.”

“Actually I’m not-”

“Oh, dear Celestia, Darling, you look dreadful, what happened to your mane?”

“A fucking transdimensional portal, you #+*%@!”

“I simply can’t let you run around like that. Tomorrow I will give you a complete makeover.”

“I don’t think that’s-”

“NO! No back talk! Leaving you like this would be a crime against fashion.”

“I guess, killing you and dropping your corpse in the river is a better option then?”

“Anyway, see you tomorrow Darling, at 10 o’ clock sharp in my boutique.” She said then disappeared in the crowd.

“I DON’T EVEN NO WHERE YOUR #+*%@-ING BOUTIQUE IS!!!”

I took a deep breath and sighed. At least it couldn’t get any worse, right? WRONG!

After Rarity’s gossip-attack came a really self-confident Rainbow Dash. And I mean REALLY self-confident. Means I had to listen to 30 minutes of “Why I am so awesome”.

After the Rainbow came the Apple. Applejack wasn’t that bad actually. We did some casual Smalltalk, but I could feel her mistrust. Either she was generally mistrustful to strangers or she could sense that I was different somehow.

The only chat I actually enjoyed was, when I met Fluttershy. She was…well…quite shy, but I liked that. She didn’t even ask where I came from (She probably wouldn’t have tried to find out my name either…).

After finishing Smalltalk with Fluttershy (“It was a pleasure to meet you Fluttershy”-“...Thank you…”) I decided to go upstairs to find a quiet place. I realised that I was actually really tired. I felt like I hadn’t slept for ages.

It was quite dark in the upper floor of Twilight’s house, but also it was quiet. I could barely hear the music from below. Perfect.

I yawned.

“Dimension-travelling is quite an exhausting hobby isn’t it?” someone said.

I looked around and saw Twilight, sitting in front of the window. She smiled at me.

“You didn’t like loud parties either huh?” I asked. Then I sat down next to her.

We remained silent for a few minutes. Then Twilight said:

“When I was a little filly, I always looked at the stars at night. I was always wondering if there were Ponies in the stars…Now I know a lot more about them. I still enjoy looking at them, but it just doesn’t feel the same. It feels like the magic of mystery is gone.”

“They are still beautiful.” I tried to cheer her up. She seemed so melancholic right now.

I gazed at the night sky for a few more minutes. When I turned back to Twilight I realised how close our faces had come. I looked into her beautiful violet eyes, felt her warm breath on my face, smelled her hair, and before I even knew what happened, we were kissing each other. It was a long and intensive kiss. Twilight tried to push her tongue into my mouth, but I was hesitating and blocked with my teeth. This situation was completely new to me. I had never really kissed a girl and now all this happened so fast. My eyes widened as Twilight increased the pressure and tried to force her tongue between my teeth. Eventually I gave up resisting and allowed her to explore the inside of my mouth, and finally even tried to use my tongue myself. Everything was soft, wet and tasted a bit like raspberries with a slight hint of bitter.
I don't know how long our lips stuck together. It seemed like an eternity, when suddenly...

“Ooh yikes! Did you two just...?”

Twilight and I were startled and quickly let go of each other. I couldn’t look at myself but I swear I was red like an overripe tomato.

Spike looked at me, over to Twilight, and then back to me.

“Spike, Please promise me that you won’t tell anyone.” Twilight said nervously.

“I don’t know...maybe we can make an arrangement. Let’s say you do the housework for at least...two months.” The purple dragon responded with a malicious smile.

“What? Forget it you little...” Twilight called out.

“Oh, I think Rarity will be incredibly excited about this beautiful news.” The way he pronounced beautiful pointed out, what he thought of the situation.

“Wait WHAT???”

“Please agree, I’ll help you with the housework, I swear, but for Celestia’s sake (I was already adapting to Pony-society) don’t let him tell Rarity. Half Ponyville is at this party!” I quickly tried to convince Twilight.

“Fine Spike, I’ll do what you want and now get back down there and act like nothing happened.” Twilight sighed.

“Aww yeah!” Spike cheered and rushed downstairs.

“You know he’s gonna tell her anyway?” I stated.

“Yes, but at least I have a reason to ground him then.” Twilight chuckled.

That was the moment when I really fell in love with this mare.

“I should probably go to bed now.” I tried to finish the conversation before something even more embarrassing happened.

“The left one is yours. I’ll go back downstairs and observe. At least he should know that I’m watching him” Twilight said with a grim smile.

I watched her going downstairs. Then I went to bed and covered myself with the blanket.

“Tomorrow I’m going to look for a job...” I thought.

I’ve made my decision. Even if there was an opportunity to return to Earth I wouldn’t go for it. I’ve made new friends and my first relationship was about to begin. Why would I want to go back?

With these thoughts I drifted away into peaceful slumber and sweet dreams. At that time I didn’t know that something dark was about to happen in near future. But about that later. This isn’t the right moment to tell you...

END OF CHAPTER 6

Author's note: What? Too cheesy? Buck you I do what I want. No, seriously, this whole shipping-thing is essential for the story and for the possible sequels. Anyway thanks for the support.

Chapter 7: I might be an artist now

Chapter 7: I might be an artist now

The sunshine woke me up. I felt like I had slept for hours.

I looked around. Twilight’s bed was empty. I didn’t know what time it was, but it was probably already around 11 o’ clock.

“I guess I missed Rarity’s makeover appointment. Too bad.”I grinned.

I went downstairs. Nopony seemed to be at home. I noticed a small table in one corner. There was a plate with something that looked like food on it and a sheet of paper. I looked at the sheet and recognized that it was a note for me:

_______________________________________________________________________________

Dear Xenos,

I’m sorry I couldn’t wait for you to wake up. Rarity wanted to meet me at the spa and you don’t want to know what happens when you are late.” I guess I’ll find out soon...” Anyway, if you have any questions just ask Spike. I told him to help you with anything.

_______________________________________________________________________________

“So I guess I’m something like your babysitter now.” Spike suddenly said, standing behind me.

I hadn’t noticed him. He was quite good at sneaking up to Ponies.

“if you haven’t noticed, this food is meant to be your breakfast.”

On the plate were some oats as well as some flowers, I didn’t recognize.

I was never really into vegetarian food, but as Ponies are exclusively herbivores I would have to change my diet sooner or later if I wanted to survive. First I tried just a little bit, but it actually tasted really good. It seemed like when I had changed into a Pony my sense of taste had changed too. Although this was quite logical, it still was kinda strange.

“So you and Twilight were...busy...yesterday?” Spike asked. I could hear from his voice that he despised me.

And that made me angry!

“I did more at that one evening, than you will ever do with Rarity in your whole life!” I called out in anger.

I actually consider myself to be a nice person (Pony!), but when I get angry I can be really offending, sometimes hurting people’s feelings more than I intend. And Spike seemed very hurt.

I immediately regretted what I said.

“I- I’m sorry, Spike, I really didn’t mean to-“I tried to apologize.

Spike looked like he was about to cry.

“No, don’t apologize, you’re right...I’m pathetic. When I saw you and Twilight I was...jealous. You had just arrived and were already...”

I really understood him right now. I once felt this way too.

“Look, Spike...It isn’t really like I said. I think Rarity likes you more than she would admit. It’s just a difficult situation. After all she’s a mare and you’re a young dragon, although you behave much more mature than most other dragons.” I tried to make amends for what I had done.

“You...you think so?” He looked at me with tears in his eyes.

“I know it.”

That was a lie. I had no idea if Rarity really had stronger feelings for Spike, but I thought that anything would be better than leaving him depressed like this.

“Peace?” I asked.

“Peace...” Spike smiled.

I tried to hug him, but he quickly backed off.

“Whoa, I thought you were more into mares?” He asked, giving me an awkward look.

“Wait...No...That’s not meant to be gay or something, it’s...how do they call it? Ah, I know!”

(Author’s note: Play this now for better experience. Song starts at 0:29)

“Well...ok...we should probably forget this and never speak about it again.” Spike said.

“Agreed.” I stated.

“Well, I could show you around Ponyville now. I guess you don’t have any special plans right now.” Spike suggested.

“You’re right. I don’t have a better suggestion yet.” I agreed.

“Then let’s go.” He said and we left the library.

I was happy that we finally settled our differences. He turned out to be quite a nice guy.

Spike showed me the most popular locations in Ponyville: Sugarcube Corner, Rarity’s Carousel Boutique, the Schoolhouse, the Hospital, the day spa, and finally the town hall.

“So that’s basically it. What you’re going to do now?” Spike asked.

“I don’t know. As I want to stay here, I guess I’ll have to find a job or something.” I answered. “But I have no idea what job would fit me.”

“Well the best job for you would probably be one that matches your cutie mark. It’s a pencil, right? So your special talent must be art or something...” He said.

I thought about it.

“Is there an artist in Ponyville?” I asked Spike.

“Not that I’m aware of, but I think most of the Ponies would find the idea of being able to buy paintings or pictures quite interesting.”

“You may be right, but first I need some equipment. At least I’ll need an easel, a canvas and some paper scrolls as well as some brushes, colours and some pencils.” I said.

Then I realized that Spike was already writing a list.

“...brushes, colours and pencils, got it! I think we can get you most of that in the stationery shop, where Twilight gets her parchment from. We probably even get Applejack to craft you an easel. We will lend you the money. Just pay it back when you earned enough.” Spike said friendly.

I was overwhelmed by his supportive behaviour. A few hours ago he was probably wishing that I would go back where I came from and now he treated me like a good friend.

“I- I don’t know how to thank you...” I stammered.

“Hey, that’s what friends are for, right? You’ll find a way to reciprocate. Now, let’s go and get you some equipment so you can start as Ponyville’s new artist.”

I smiled. Then we went to Sweet Apple Acres begging her for crafting me an easel.

Applejack actually did it. It seemed like she had accepted me as a member of Ponyville’s society now that I didn’t turn out to be an over-self confident show-off or to try to bring her family business down (yes, that’s a reference!). She even seemed to like the idea of Ponyville having an artist (“The house needs some decoration. Some paintings would be nice.”).

I felt a little bit uncomfortable. Applejack and Spike seemed to have high expectations in me and I didn’t know if I was really good enough to be a real artist.

With the easel, Spike and I went to the stationery shop to get the rest of the equipment. Finally I felt ready for some drawing.

“And now? Do I just build up the easel and start drawing and painting things?” I asked.

“I think so. Just start drawing. Eventually somepony will pass and get interested. What if you begin by drawing me?”

“I can do that.” At least I thought so.

So I started drawing and it actually went very well. Levitating the pencil with my magic was a bit difficult at first, but I quickly got used to it. After some time (I was already painting the picture of Spike) a few Ponies gathered around and watched me working. I couldn’t help, but feel proud.

When I finished I put the painting next to me so they could see it. They reacted better than I had expected. Some even congratulated and asked if I could draw them too. So I spend the rest of the afternoon in town and made some paintings. The Ponies seemed honestly impressed. As the sun set I decided to stop, because it simply became too dark for me to continue. I actually had to promise that I would be back tomorrow. It seemed like I gained some fans.

I really felt proud when Spike and I walked back to the library. Even Spike seemed to be impressed by my skills.

“You sure know how to handle pencil and brush.” He stated.

When we entered the library, Twilight greeted me friendly. I felt a bit strange, because I hadn’t talked to her since what had happened yesterday. Twilight had already prepared some dinner for me. I hadn’t noticed before, but actually felt really hungry. I didn’t even care what it was I just ate it...and it was good.

“Fthanfth youfth fvery mufh, Tfwilifght.” I said with my mouth full.

Twilight giggled a little.

Full and satisfied I wished Twilight and Spike goodnight and went upstairs. It wasn’t very late, but I already felt really tired. After all it had been an exhausting day.

I felt like my life in Ponyville had just really begun. I felt quite happy and fell asleep quickly...

Chapter 8: About muffins and love

Chapter 8: About muffins and love

The next morning I got up earlier. This time I wanted to catch Twilight before she left, although I didn’t know why.

I found her downstairs, where she was just about to go.

“Oh...uhm...Good morning...Twilight.”I said friendly.

“Good morning, Xenos. Is there something important you want to tell me?” She asked.

“Uhm...no...why- why do you think so?”

“Don’t show her that you were actually hoping to catch her before leaving.”

“Well you got up like two hours earlier than yesterday, so I suppose you wanted to tell me something before I leave.”

“Well, crap...”

“Actually I wanted to ask you how to continue, I mean-. “ I wanted to continue, but Twilight cut me off.

“Look, I’m sorry for what happened at the party. I didn’t know why I did it. It was kind of...an accident, okay?” She broke out.

That came unexpected.

“I actually was referring to the fact that I should probably look for a house to...like...live on my own, because I thought it’d be strange to live here without paying or something.” I tried not to sound hurt, although I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach.

Awkward silence...

“Oh...uhm...I could...ask the Mayor...if there’s an abandoned house somewhere...I’d better be going now.” Twilight said, then quickly rushed out of the library.

I remained silent for a few minutes. Then I let out a long shout of frustration.

“WHY?! Why for Celestia’s sake?!”

I didn’t know what made me so frustrated. Either that Twilight just made clear to me that she didn’t even think of having a relationship, or the fact that I actually thought that it would work between her and me.

I was so frustrated that I wanted to bang my head against the wall, but decided to just paint a picture. I just focussed all my anger on the canvas. At the end it looked like a colour-massacre. I released some anger, but still felt like bursting from frustration.

Then I realised how selfish I was. Thinking that she actually had some kind of crush on me and then snap, just because of being wrong. I really hated myself right now and felt like I had to cry, although there was no real reason for that.

“Come on, buddy. It’s not that bad.” Someone said from behind.

“Spike!? Were you actually...watching that whole thing?” I asked.

Damn, that dragon’s got some sneaking skill.

“Well...yes, but I didn’t want to interrupt you. It looked like it was awkward enough.”

I sighed.

“It doesn’t matter anymore. I thought that Twilight actually liked me...like, you know...more than just some kind of a friend.” I said.

“Well, she probably does...She always had difficulties to express feelings. She’s probably just uncertain. I mean she kissed you, even though she barely knew you.” Spike tried to cheer me up.

“She said that she just didn’t know what she was doing and that it was an accident. Doesn’t sound like she’s uncertain...” I responded.

“She didn’t know what she was doing? Believe me when I say Twilight always knows what she’s doing. I guess, it’s hard for her to admit that she actually likes you. She’s probably just afraid of changes.” Spike said.

“Thank you Spike, I owe you a lot. If there’s anything you need help with, don’t hesitate to ask me.” I said, more confident now.

Then I packed my painting equipment (I bought a pair of saddlebags too) and left the library. It was still quite early, so I decided to visit the Doctor before I would start painting again.

I found him in the garden where I first met him. He was busy repairing a cooker and didn’t even notice me.

“Hey Doc!” I called out.

“Oh, hey Xenos.” He turned to me and smiled. “I heard you are an artist now.”

“Even you know? I must be really popular.” I grinned.

“Actually, Ditzy told me. I’m not that interested in what happens in town, you know.” He explained.

Right on cue, the gray Pegasus landed next to him.

“Hi, Doc! Just finished delivering the mail. Oh, hi, Xenos.” Ditzy smiled. “You’re an artist now right? Would you paint me a picture?” She asked.

“Sure. What do you want me to paint for you?”

She thought for a moment, crossing her eyes even more than usual (It was fascinating). Then she smiled.

“Draw me...a muffin.” She said.

I couldn’t help, but laugh.

“Well, if that’s what you want. But I’ll need a model. Do you ha-.” I couldn’t even finish the sentence. She was already pulling out different muffins out of her saddlebag.

“...blueberry muffins, chocolate muffins and vanilla muffins.” She listed.

I couldn’t even tell if there was a difference between all the muffins, but Ditzy seemed to know them by heart.

“Another fan-fact has proven itself to be true.” I thought.

I chose the blueberry muffin to be my model and built up my easel took out my equipment and started painting. I tried hard to make it look as life-like as possible. After about half an hour I finished...and was satisfied.

Ditzy seemed even happier.

“It looks so delicious, I almost want to eat the picture.” She stated, but then ate the model-muffin instead.

I smiled. She was just too adorable. Suddenly she gave me brief kiss on my cheek, then flew away. I blushed a little, then I noticed the look on Doctor Whoove’s face. He looked really jealous right now.

“You fancy her, right?” I stated.

His face immediately turned red like an apple.

“What? NO! I mean we’re just friends, nothing more.” He quickly tried to explain.

“Don’t try to fool me. I already knew when I first saw you two together. Why don’t you ask her out? I’m sure she wouldn’t turn you down. She’s way too friendly for that.” I suggested.

It was kinda strange. I didn’t even manage to ask out the mare I liked, but already acted like I was thebucking Date-Doctor.

“I don’t even know where to take her. I don’t know if there is a romantic restaurant in Ponyville. I actually don’t know any restaurants.” He sounded desperate.

“I’m sure we’ll find a restaurant somewhere. Come on, I’ll help you. I already have an idea.” I tried to convince him

.

Suddenly someone called my name.

“Xenos, there you are. I got the Mayor to offer you a house. You have to come with me.” Twilight said.

“Looks like we have to delay my plans, Doc, but I’m going to set you up with that mare, and if it’s the last thing I do.” I said.

Guessing from his facial expression he was probably hoping that I would just forget that whole thing...No way!

Then I trotted up to Twilight and followed her.

“The Doctor and Ditzy Doo? Really?” Twilight looked at me with disbelief.

“Seems so. However I would be thankful if you wouldn’t tell anypony. Poor Doc already seems a bit uncomfortable about the situation."

“I promise I won’t tell.” Twilight said.

Then we arrived at the town hall.

END OF CHAPTER 8

Author's note: Unfortunately I won't be able to add new chapters for the next three days. I'm going on a hiking trip and won't be back before Sunday. I will take my notebook with me so I can write at least one new chapter, but i won't be able to upload it due to the lack of W-Lan in the mountains.

Chapter 9: Just good friends

Chapter 9: Just good friends

“So, you’re the new famous artist in town?” The Mayor asked when we arrived at the town hall.

“Seems so.” I tried to sound humble.

“Twilight told me that you don’t have an own house yet. Fortunately, there is a free one, on the edge of the town. So, if you’re not too busy I can show you now.” She said.

“I guess I don’t have anything special to do right now, so yeah let’s go.” I answered.

Together we went to the house Mayor had offered me. It was a small house, but I thought I wouldn’t need much space, so it was actually perfect. However there was one problem.

“It’s really nice and everything, but...how am I going to pay for it? I don’t have much money right now.” I said.

“Maybe we can make an arrangement...The town hall needs some decoration. A few nice paintings would be fine if you know what I mean.” She smiled.

“I’ll start working right now. When I’m finished I’ll bring you the paintings.” I answered happily.

The Mayor seemed satisfied and trotted back to the town hall. I was alone with Twilight now. After a few silent minutes, she said:

“You can come around at any time, if you need help or something.”

Awkward silence.

“Look I’m sorry. I was a bit harsh to you in the morning. It’s just...you’re really nice and everything, but I don’t need something like a coltfriend right now. I’m just too busy.” She broke out.

“Yeah, I can understand that. It’s fine to me.” I lied.

“I’m glad you do. But you know, we can still be friends... I’m going back now. You know where to find me.” She said and then walked away.

I waited until she was out of hearing range and then let out a long:

“FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!”

“We can still be friends? That’s it. I have no chance anymore... But no, not this way. I will fight! Challenge accepted, Twilight.” I thought.

Then I took a brief look at the inside of the house. As I said before, it was quite small. There was a small bedroom, a kitchen, a bathroom, and some kind of a living room with a sofa and an empty bookshelf in it. It wasn’t a mansion, but actually very homely. I liked it.

I left the house and headed for the town centre. It was time for working. I built up my easel like usual and started drawing pictures of the town. Eventually some Ponies actually bought them. I also got requests for portrays. So I spend the whole afternoon drawing and painting.

When I decided to stop there were still some paintings left. They looked quite nice, so I thought they would perfectly fit in the town hall. I would bring them to the Mayor tomorrow.

The whole time I was thinking of a reason to visit Twilight at the library. I could just say that I want to visit Spike, but that would be too obvious. Then I had a great idea:

“I’m still part-human right? Twilight said she wanted to do some research. I’ll just tell her she can ask me any questions about my universe. She can’t turn that down.”

I brought my equipment home and then went to the library.

When I arrived there I knocked the door.

“Come in! It’s open!” Twilight called.

So I opened the door, and went inside. Twilight was busy reading a book, but looked up and smiled.

“What’s the matter, Xenos?” She asked friendly.

“Well, I’m finished with painting for today and I remember that you said you were interested in human culture. You know, when we first talked and you said you could write a book about parallel dimensions and stuff. So as I’ve got time now I decided to come over so you can ask me some questions.” I responded.

“Come on, you don’t have reason to turn that down.”

“That’s right...I guess... But only if you really don’t have anything else to do. It could take a while, you know.” She smiled nervously.

“Nope, plenty of time here.” I answered friendly.

“Got ya!”

“Well, then...let’s start. Where should we begin?” She asked.

“Anywhere you want. History, Biology, human society...” I said.

“Why not begin with History?” She suggested.

“Alright then...wait, where’s Spike? I haven’t seen him the whole day.” I noticed.

“He’s with the Cutie mark Crusaders. They’re having a slumber party.” Twilight told me.

“Never knew Spike was into slumber parties.” I said.

“It’s at Rarity’s house.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Go get her, Tiger.” I thought.

“So where did we stop?” I asked.

“You wanted to tell me about human history.”

“Ah, I remember, so let’s start...”

So I spent the next few hours, telling her everything important I remembered from history class. About the Egyptians, the Romans, the Maya. I mentioned every war or revolution I knew and tried to explain it as easy as possible. Twilight didn’t interrupt me once. She just listened and took notes. I could tell from the look on her face that she was honestly impressed.

Around midnight I reached present day and finished my narration.

“Do you have any...questions?” I asked carefully.

“Well, actually...I do.”

She yawned.

“So first of all, why are there so many wars in human history? Why don’t you live together in peace?”

“I seriously have no idea. We just don’t seem to get along with each other. It’s actually very sad. I wished Earth would be more like Equestria.” I sighed.

“So you don’t want to go back there?” She asked.

“No, definitely not. I had nothing there and now I have a job and new friends.” I answered.

“Is there nobody that would miss you?”

“I don’t think so.” I lied.

Of course there were people who would probably be worried about my vanishing, but I didn’t care. I would be just one missing person more. Hardly anybody would care.

“Something else you want to know, Twilight?” I asked.

“...Twilight?”

Then I noticed that she had just fallen asleep.

I smiled. She looked so peaceful right now. Like a little filly. I decided to carry to bed. I tried to lift her with my magic, but I couldn’t hold her long enough.

“I guess, I’ll have to ask her for some magic training someday...”

I finally managed to lift her on my back and then carefully carried her upstairs. There I focussed my magic a last time to lift her onto the bed. Then I covered her with the blanket.

“Good night, Twilight...” I whispered.

Then I turned around and headed for the stairs.

“Good night, Xenos...”

I stopped and smiled. Then I went down, left the library and walked back home.

END OF CHAPTER 9

Authors note: I'm back again and still alive so be prepared for more.

Chapter 10: It's a trap!

Chapter 10: It’s a trap!

Next morning I got up pretty late.

“Shouldn’t stay up that late...Not used to it...”

I thought about yesterday. Did Twilight just pretend to be asleep? Or was she asleep and just didn’t say anything when I carried her? Was it some kind of a weird test? Maybe she wanted to know if I would try anything funny when she’s asleep. Did that mean I had passed the test? I did’t know.

I decided to take my mind off things by taking a walk through town. I took my paintings from yesterday with me, so I could leave them at the town hall. After that I would visit the Doctor. I still had some setting up to do.

“Won’t get away this time, Doc” I thought.

I arrived at the town hall, and showed the Mayor my paintings. She was obviously satisfied.

“They will give the town hall a much more beautiful look.” She smiled.

I blushed a little. I wasn’t used to so much appreciation.

Then I headed towards Ditzy’s house.

“Hello? Anypony there?” I called out, when I arrived.

No answer.

I looked in the garden, but nopony was there. Then I noticed that something else was missing: The TARDIS!

“Doctor Whooves, you little son of a bitch. Looks like, you’ve gotten away again.”

So as there was nothing else to do, I decided to go back to town and look for new motifs for painting. Suddenly I noticed, that I had eaten nothing since yesterday morning. Right on cue my stomach rumbled. I decided to look for a restaurant and eventually found one, where I ordered the largest food on the menu (I was really hungry now). While eating I noticed a mare with a cart selling roses on the street. After I finished eating and paid, I went up to her. Those roses were really beautiful.

“I could buy one for Twilight...But wouldn’t that be too soon. I mean, if I give her a red rose now I might like...scare her off or something...” I thought.

I decided to buy one, just in case. Then I wanted to go to my usual place for painting., when I suddenly bumped into Rarity.

“I’m so sorry. Are you okay?” I tried to apologize.

“I’m fine. At least you didn’t ruin my beautiful styling.

“Yeah...whatever. I think I’ll go now.”

“Wait, I saw you buying a rose over there. Why?” She asked curiously.

“Well...just...I like roses, okay.” I tried to avoid telling the truth.

“I see, I see. Well, could you do me a little favour?” She asked.

“Uhm...yeah, why not? What is it?”

“You’re famous now in Ponyville.”

“I am?” I asked suspiciously.

“Of course, you are. You’re number one subject of conversation in town. The mysterious stranger who appears out of nowhere and turned out to be a talented artist” She chirped.

That was honestly surprising. I knew that some Ponies already were talking about me, but number one subject of conversation? That was new.

“And what do you want from me, now?” I asked, although I already knew what she got at.

“Isn’t it obvious, Darling? My boutique needs some decoration and your paintings would fit perfectly. Of course I’ll pay you sufficiently.”

I thought. Rarity didn’t seem to be half as annoying as I thought. And she also seemed to have forgotten that I missed her little makeover appointment. So what could possibly go wrong?

I followed her to the boutique.

“Oh dear, I totally forgot to clean up. Would you mind if you wait outside until it’s ready? It won’t take more than a minute.” Rarity suddenly said.

“Uhm...okay...if it’s that important to you.” I answered uncertain.

She seemed to be planning something.

“You’re a true gentlecolt. Only a few minutes, okay?” She said, then went into the boutique.

So i waited until I heard her saying:

“I’m ready, you can come in now.”

I stepped inside, but I couldn’t see anything. It was pitch dark.

“Do you have a problem with the lights?” I asked.

Suddenly the door closed.

“Oh shit!”

I tried to open it again, but it was locked.

“It’s a trap! IT’S A TRAP!”

I looked around, but couldn’t see anything. Suddenly someone pointed with a bright flashlight right in my face. I turned my head away.

“What’s going on with you and Twilight? Tell me! TELL ME EVERYTHING!”

“I don’t know, what you’re talking about. We’re just friends!”

That wasn’t even a lie.

“You’re lying. You bought a rose. A red rose! That’s like an official confession” She shouted.

“Okay, okay I admit it. I like Twilight. I like her a lot, but there’s absolutely nothing going on. She just wants to be friends.” I said.

Rarity looked at me for a few moments. Then she turned off the flashlight.

“You look like you tell the truth. I guess I can let you go now, but don’t you ever dare to hurt Twilight. Do you understand me?!” She said.

“Yes I do. I would never try to hurt her.”

“Then, feel free to go.”

“Phew.”

“Oh almost forgot. You remember when I told you I would give you a makeover. Now that you’re here...”

“NOOOOOOOOO!!!”

So I spent the next hour, being trapped in the boutique and getting...ugh...styled.

When Rarity finally finished I busted out of the boutique. I needed to find Rainbow Dash. Eventually I found her relaxing on a cloud.

“Rainbow Dash! I need your help! Now!”

“What’s the matter Xe-. Oh my gosh what happened to you?” She asked.

“Rarity happened. I need a raincloud to get all this hair-gel out of my mane.” I shouted.

“Oh don’t worry. You look...good...sort of.” She said.

I could see that she was trying hard not to burst out laughing.

“Rainbow, please!” I shouted desperately.

“I’m on it.” She said, then dashed off to get a raincloud.

Three seconds later she was back and set the cloud off, right above me. With pleasure, I felt the hair-gel being flushed away.

“Thanks, Rainbow. You saved my day.” I said.

“No big deal.” She responded and flew away to another cloud to take a nap.

Then I went back to my house where I met Spike. He seemed to be looking for something.

“Xenos, there you are. I need your help.” He called out, when he saw me.

“What’s the problem Spike?” I asked.

“You remember, when you said you owe me something, and that I could ask you whenever I need help?”

“Uhm...yeah?”

I wasn’t sure what he was up to.

“Well, I finally have a plan how to win Rarity, but I need your help.” He said euphorically.

“Keep talking I’m listening...”

END OF CHAPTER 10

Chapter 11: So much love

Chapter 11: So much love

“You want me to do WHAT?!“ I asked with disbelief.

“Come on, Xenos. You promised it.” The purple dragon said.

I should probably tell you about Spike’s plan. He told me that Rarity often went to Ponville’s bar in the evening. The plan was that I should go in there, try to flirt with her, but behave like a total douche bag so she wants to get rid of me. Then Spike would enter, act like a gentleman, and then persuade me to leave her alone and be the great hero. Not an incredibly smart plan, but what do you expect from a baby dragon?

However, I wasn’t really sure about this. I felt like I had somehow a chance with Twilight. If Rarity would tell her that I’m an idiot, I would probably lose her forever. So I told Spike, but he didn’t seem worried.

“I can get Rarity not to bandy it about. Just apologize later, saying you were drunk or something.” He said.

“Fine, I’ll do it. But only because I owe you something and you are my buddy.” I sighed.

“Alright! She usually goes there today, so we just have to wait.” Spike stated.

“How comes, you know all that stuff?” I asked suspiciously.

“Let’s just say I have my sources...”

I decided not to ask more questions. This dragon started to creep me out.

We went to the bar and hid outside. There we waited for more than an hour, when finally Rarity came and entered the bar.

“Let’s get this over with...”

“Alright Spike, I’m going in. You use your stealth skills and watch from the window and when Rarity seems angry enough you come in and save the day.” I said.

“Okay, but what did you mean when you said stealth skills?” He asked.

“Never mind...”

So I walked up to the door, took a deep breath, and entered. I was a bit surprised when I got inside. Rarity seemed to be the only Pony.

“Well, that makes things a lot easier.”

I walked up to her and waited. It took a while until she noticed me.

“Xenos, what are you doing here? Usually I’m the only Pony in here at that time.” She looked surprised.

“Well, I...”

I’ll spare you with the details. It’s just too embarrassing. Let’s just say I behaved like a total asshole (I referred to her butt in every second sentence). She was obviously shocked.

“How dare you to treat a lady like that? I thought you were a gentlecolt, but you are just an...an asshole.” She shouted.

“That’s your cue, Spike.” I thought.

Then I heard the door open.

“Finally...”

But when I turned around, my heart nearly stopped. Standing there wasn’t Spike...but Twilight. And she looked very angry.

“Fuck!”

“Twilight...did you actually listen to the whole...uhm...I can explain that...” I stuttered.

“I’m waiting.” She responded.

I could hear the anger in her voice.

“It’s just...I wanted to...Wait, if I tell her the truth now, I humiliate Spike in front of Rarity. I can’t do that.”

I noticed Spike, standing in the door. He looked nervous and uncertain.

Then Twilight broke out:

“I can’t even describe how disappointed I am right now. I really thought that you were different...that you were...special.”

Her voice was full of frustration now.

I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t tell her the truth and I couldn’t make up a believable lie right now. So I decided to do the best thing I could think of: Running away like a coward. I busted out of the bar and ran home as fast as possible.

I immediately shut the door when I arrived. I was shivering.

“I’m such an idiot. A fucking idiot. I should have never agreed to this shit.”

I was frustrated, angry, and sad. At first I pretended that it was all Spike’s fault. But I quickly realised that it was my own stupidity that brought me into this situation. I didn’t know what to do to release my frustration so I started banging my head against the wall, while repeating to call myself an idiot.

After half an hour I suddenly heard someone knocking the door.

“Xenos? Are you there? I need to talk to you.”

It was Twilight.

“No! Go away! I don’t want to talk. I don’t deserve it.” I shouted.

Yes, self-pity can be pretty embarrassing...

Twilight entered.

“Xenos...please.” She sounded calm.

I looked into her eyes. She looked at me both worried and compassionately.

“It’s okay. You don’t need to be ashamed.” She said calmly. “Spike told us everything, about his...plan.”

“He did?”

I was surprised. The little dragon had told the truth, even though risking everypony making fun of him. I would have to thank him later.

“Yes, he did and...I think it was really...nice of you. I mean helping him, although you knew that it would mean to behave like a total douche. You’re one of the nicest Ponies I’ve ever met.” She smiled.

I felt my face turning red.

“You know, that one time at the party...when we...you know.” She blushed a little. “I didn’t understand why I did it, but I had this strange feeling I couldn’t explain. Now I know what it was. Seems like I had some kind of...you know...crush on you, since I first talked to you.”

Her face was now bright red too.

“It was just that this was a new feeling for me and I didn’t want to admit it. I’m sorry what you had to go through. I didn’t want to make it that difficult for you.” She added.

I just realised that she already had come very close. I didn’t know what to say. I didn’t see all that coming. Half an hour ago, she sounded like she never wanted to see me again and now she was...like...confessing her love, or something.

For a moment we just looked at each other. Then I pulled mysef together, leaned forward and kissed her on the mouth. Just a brief kiss, then I pulled back. Twilight looked at me with her big, beautiful eyes and smiled. Then she leaned forward herself and we kissed again. This time much longer and much more passionate. Again I noticed that her soft lips tasted like bitter raspberries. A wonderful flavour.
We pressed our heads together until our horns touched. I felt a pleasant chill, running down my back. It seemed that the horn was a very sensitive spot.
Finally we let of each other. I quickly tried to avoid eye-contact, so she didn't see me blushing.

“Whoa...that was...I don’t know...just...thank you.” I stammered.

For a moment we just looked at each other. Then Twilight said:

“Now that we’re...like...sure about our feelings...” She blushed. “...I wanted to ask you if you want to...like...be my coltfriend...”

This was probably the worst attempt to start a relationship I’ve ever heard, but screw you I was so damn happy that she actually asked.

“Buck yeah, I want to.” I said and smiled.

Then I wrapped my foreleg around her neck and pulled her closer and we kissed again. After all this I had finally gained some self confidence. This time it wasn't just a shy, first kiss. It was reall passionate kissing.

(Authors note: watch this now)

Before you ask, NO, nothing more but kissing happened, so keep your fantasies for yourself. Anyway, I didn’t remember to have ever felt this happy.

When Twilight left I somehow felt the need to say something like: We should do that again..., but decided not to, because it would only destroy the beautiful moment. Then I went to bed, still smiling like an idiot.

“Best day ever!!!” I thought.

Then I fell asleep having some rather...inappropriate dreams. But seriously who cares? I’m dating Twilight Sparkle!!!

END OF CHAPTER 11

Chapter 12: Should I really...?

Chapter 12: Should I really?

It’s been a week now, since I started dating Twilight. Nothing really special has happened so far. I just regularly came over to the library and we studied. We also did kissing and stuff, but nothing more so far. Anyway, I had never been that happy before. Until that one day...

I woke up like always and went to town. I finally wanted to get Doctor Whooves a date with Ditzy. He wouldn’t get away this time.

I decided to take a day off, so I would have more time for the whole setting up thing.

Almost forgot to tell you: Rarity helped me a lot with my work (we’re friends now). She got some of her customers from Canterlot interested in my art. I guess, I’m kinda famous now.

Anyway, I walked to Ditzy’s house and eventually found the Doc.

“Oh, hey Xenos. Haven’t seen you in a while.” He greeted, when he noticed me.

I just stood there, looking at him.

“Is there a problem? Why are you-“ He stopped. “Please, don’t tell me that you still want to set me up with Ditzy...”

“You won’t get away this time.” I said monotonously.

“We’ll see about that.” He responded and then tried to run off.

However I caught with my magic and held him in the air (I’m better at this stuff now).

“That’s unfair.” He moaned.

“I’m just doing what I promised to do. By the way I have more experience now.” I said.

“More experience? Wait, are you and Twilight...?” he asked.

I just nodded.

He sighed.

“I surrender. Do whatever you want. I won’t resist anymore...” He grumbled.

“Wise decision, Doc. Now you’re going to ask her out.” I said.

“Wait, what? I can’t ask her out. I’ve never asked a girl, or to be exact: mare, out.” He stammered.

“It isn’t that difficult. Just ask her if she wants to go out for dinner with you.” Don’t worry, I will use my ninja-stealth-skills to hide and observe you, to help you when necessary.” I said happily.

“Your what now?”

“Never mind...”

The Doc sighed.

Switch to Doctor Whooves

“Let’s get this over with...” The Doc thought.

“First we have to find Ditzy. Could be difficult, because I have no idea where she could be.” He stated, hoping it would give him time to think of an escape plan.

Not that he didn’t like Xenos. They were friends, but this crazy stallion was obsessed with setting him up with Ditzy.

“Be honest to yourself, you’ve always wanted it.”

In fact he had a crush on Ditzy for quite some time. He didn’t know why, but she made him feel happy. It just felt like they would match perfectly, although Ditzy was the complete opposite of him.

He always thought logically and never made a hasty decision. Ditzy, however, acted more spontaneously. Whatever she did, she never thought of the effects it might have in the future. And she was always happy. He had never seen her being sad. He wondered if she was even capable of being sad.

“Opposites attract, I guess.”

Suddenly Xenos pulled a muffin out of his saddlebags.

“I’m prepared for this. Just hold that thing while I’m hiding behind that tree over there. Ditzy will be here in no time.” He said and jumped behind the tree.

The Doctor was sceptical.

“It’s impossible that she-.”

“MUUUUUFFIIIIINS!” Ditzy yelled.

“How on earth?” he asked in disbelief.

“Oh, hi Doc. You’re going to eat that muffin?”

“Uhm...no...actually I just...” he began.

He looked around to the tree. He couldn’t see Xenos anywhere.

“...I just wanted to give you this muffin. Yes, just this muffin. Now I’m going back to wo-OUCH!” He yelled when suddenly a brief lightning bolt struck his flank.

From the corner of his eye he could see Xenos, with a glowing horn and a dunning look on his face.

“What now Doc? Going back to woouch? What is this woouch?” Ditzy asked innocently.

The Doc sighed.

“Actually I wanted to ask you if you would like to-”

He stopped.

“Come on, just say it!”

“- would like to go out with me for dinner.” He finished.

He closed his eyes, waiting for her to say something like: “I’m sorry, but I don’t have the time...”. But none of that happened. Instead he just found himself getting hugged by an obviously happy Pegasus mare.

“Oh Doctor, that’s so sweet. Yes, I would love to have dinner with you.” She giggled. “Just tell me when and where, okay? See you later.” She said and flew away.

Doctor Whooves was still perplexed. Then he heard Xenos chuckle.

“I told you it would work.” He said.

“And now? Where do I take her? And when?”

“Don’t worry. Everything has been arranged already. I reserved a table for you two at the local restaurant. Just be there around 8 o’ clock and summon Ditzy with a muffin.” He calmly explained.

“Shouldn’t I wear something...formal? Like a suit or something.” The Doctor asked nervously.

“Just wear a tie. You look good with a tie.” Xenos said friendly.

Then he turned around to go away.

“Wait!” The Doctor called. “Won’t you be there? In case I need some help.”

Xenos turned back again and looked at him with a creepy smile.

“Don’t worry. I will be watching you...alwaysssssss.” he said then teleported away.

Doctor Whooves didn’t know if he should feel happy or frightened.

Switch to Xenos

I made it. I finally got the Doctor a date with Ditzy. Now I just needed to make sure that it all goes well. So I went to the joke shop to buy a fake moustache. It would be a lousy disguise, but after all Ditzy wasn’t that smart so thought it would be enough.

Then I walked to the restaurant. It was only 5 o’ clock, so I decided to kill time by painting something.

Finally the Doctor arrived at the restaurant. He looked around nervously (he was wearing a tie!) and then held up a muffin. Minutes later Ditzy landed in front of him. For some reason she was wearing a paper bag on her head... I couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but it looked like they were just greeting each other. Then they both went in.

I put the fake moustache on and went into the restaurant too. Fortunately I found a table close to theirs. I placed myself in a way I could have eye-contact with the Doctor without attracting Ditzy’s attention. Then I just watched and listened.

Switch to Doctor Whooves

Doctor Whooves pulled out the muffin he had bought and held it into the air.

“This is ridiculous. It’s physically impos-“

“Hi, Doc!” Ditzy said.

“How? How, for Celestia’s sake?”

“Uhm...Hi...Ditzy.” He said nervously. “Should we go in?”

“Sure” Ditzy smiled.

From the corner of his eye he noticed Xenos, following them in a distance.

“Wait, is that a fake moustache?”

They went in and let the waiter show them the reserved table. He suddenly noticed that Ditzy was wearing a paper bag on her head.

“Uhm...Ditzy...there’s a...paper bag....on your head.” He stated carefully.

“I know.” She smiled. “That’s my fancy hat.”

The Doctor couldn’t help, but smile.

“Just like always.” He thought.

He saw Xenos sitting on a table in close to them. For some reason he thought he wouldn’t really need his help, but it was good to have a supportive friend. Just in case...

Switch to Xenos

I observed them for quite some time. It was kinda adorable to watch. They talked about common things and occasionally made jokes. It was not a special date, but they seemed to enjoy themselves.

After about an hour I decided that the Doc wouldn’t need my help anymore. I paid and left the restaurant. The Doctor didn’t even seem to notice that I left. That confirmed that he was enjoying the date. I honestly felt happy for him. My heart was full of joy now, and I needed somebody to share it with. So I decided to visit Twilight.

When I entered the library, it seemed like nopony was there.

“Twilight? Spike? Anyone here?” I called out.

“I’m upstairs.” Twilight responded.

So I went upstairs.

Twilight was lying on her bed, reading a book. When she saw me, she smiled. It was a loving smile. She gave me kiss of greeting.

“What have you been doing all day?” She asked.

“Nothing important...some drawing, some painting. Ah, and I set Ditzy up with the Doctor.” I tried to sound casual.

“You actually managed that?” Twilight asked astonished.

“Yeah, it wasn’t that hard...well...except for the fact that I had to force the Doctor to do it. He’s a bit shy.” I answered.

Twilight chuckled. Then she looked at me in a strange way.

“Something you...want to tell me, Twilight?” I asked carefully.

She looked like she couldn’t decide whether to say something or not.

“Well...there’s this thing I wanted to...ask you about.” She finally said.

“More stuff about human history?” I wondered.

“It’s a bit...difficult to explain...you probably should just read this...” She said, and levitated a book in the air.

I grabbed it with my own magic and looked at the title.

“Biology? Does she want me to study Biology? I don’t mind, but why is she acting that strange. It’s not like it would be that difficult or something...”

“Page 42...” Twilight said briefly.

I turned to page 42 and started reading.

“Pony Biology, Chapter 4: Sexual intercourse. When a...WAIT, WHAT???”

I glared at Twilight. Her face had turned red like a tomato and she tried not to look me in the eye.

“You...you...want to...like...really do that?” I asked perplexed.

Twilight didn’t say anything, but just nodded carefully. I still didn’t know what to do. It’s not like, I never thought about it. Actually there wouldn’t be a problem. She was a Pony, but I was too, so there wasn’t any difference. However It would be my first time as well as hers.

Awkward silence.

Then Twilight spoke up:

“I’m sorry...it’s just...like...the others already....and I’m the only one who is a...and I just wanted to get it over with...and I like you...like you a lot...and it’s...I’m so sorry...” She stammered.

“Wait, all the others already...like...did it? Even Fluttershy?” I asked surprised.

Twilight grinned a little.

“That’s funny, in a way. She was the first of us to...you know. She and BigMacintosh are having a serious relationship for more than two years now, but hardly anyone knows...”

I was stunned. Fluttershy? And BigMac? And they really...

“Seems like another fan-fantasy has been confirmed.”

Then Twilight suddenly started to break out in tears.

“I’m sorry, I should have never asked you. I’m such an idiot. We’ve been together for less than a week and I already try to...” She sobbed.

I felt bad. Obviously this was kinda important for her. I out my arm around her and tried to solace her. I hated to see her sad.

“Come on, Twilight. If it’s important to you, we can...like...try it...I mean if you really want to...” I tried to cheer her up, then realised what I just said.

“Wait, did I really just say that?”

Twilight looked up, wiping the tears out of her face. Then she lifted the biology book in the air and flipped it open.

“I guess, we have to do it like that.” She said, more self-confident now.

I looked at the images in the book. There were drawings of Ponies doing...yeah...I wasn’t entirely sure about this whole thing, but there are worse ways to lose your virginity.

“So...uhm...how do we start?” I asked.

“I don’t know. We could do it like that. You’re like lying on your back and I’m on top.” She responded.

Something made me feel like she was considering this whole thing as some kind of scientific experiment. However, I did what she suggested. Then Twilight crawled above me.
I looked into her eyes. She seemed to be nervous too.

“Uhm...and now?” I asked uncertain.

“it says that we have to wait for your-. Oh there it is.”

At first I didn’t get what she was talking about. Then I realised that I had a boner. Twilight looked at it, like it was part of one of her studies. It was a bit weird, but also...sort of...sexy. Then she tried to bring herself in the right position.

I thought that it would be a bit awkward if I actually watched the whole thing, so I decided to close my eyes. Then I waited for something to happen. I waited...and waited...but nothing happened.

“Is something wrong?”

I opened my eyes again and saw Twilight looking confused and scared. Then I realised why...

END OF CHAPTER 12

Author's note: It's finally here. The next chapter. Sorry that it took so long, but you see it's kind of longer than usual. Anyway, enjoy it and be prepared for the final.

Chapter 13: Time-space continuum

Chapter 13: Space-time continuum

Everything was black. Not just dark, but literally black. I couldn’t see anything. Well, actually I could see myself and I also could see Twilight, as clear as on a bright and sunny day. It looked like someone removed the whole scenery and replaced it with…well…nothing.

I wanted to get up, but Twilight was still standing above me. She looked around in confusion.

“Would you…I mean…uhm…like…get off me…so I can stand up…please?” I stuttered.

She looked at me for a few seconds like she didn’t get what I just said, then shook her head and finally stepped back.

“Where…where are we?” She asked irritated.

“As if I knew what just happened…”

I looked around again. Nothing had changed. We were…nowhere.

I walked a few steps. The ground felt like…nothing. It looked like I was walking on air, but I still felt something under my hooves. However I couldn’t describe how it felt like.

I looked back to Twilight…and realized that she was standing upside down.

“Whoa, Twilight! How did you manage that?” I asked in surprise.

“Manage wha-“ She said, but suddenly stopped when she looked at me.

“How is that possible? I didn’t even move!” She said more and more confused.

I walked another few steps and looked back. This time Twilight wasn’t upside down anymore…but below me. It looked like I was floating in midair, right above her.

“What is this? Where are we?” I shouted.

“You are in the void!” A mighty voice said.

It sounded like several different voices, speaking in unison.

I nearly got a heart attack. I looked around trying to spot where the voice came from.

“Who are you? Show yourself!” I tried to sound confident.

“We are the rulers of time and space.”

I winced at the volume of the voice.

“Wh- why are we he- here?” I stuttered, a little bit more intimidated.

“You are an anomaly. You must be removed.”

“Wait, what?”

“Why? What does that mean? Why do I have to be removed?” I asked frightened.

“Do they want to kill me or something?”

“You travelled into another dimension without permission. You are a threat to the space-time continuum. You must be eliminated.” The voice said.

I still tried to spot where the voice came from, but couldn’t. It sounded like it came from everywhere.

“Show yourself. We want answers!” Twilight said aggressively.

It seemed like she wasn’t intimidated at all. Well, she had saved the world twice. I guess, you aren’t easily intimidated if you did that.

“You shall have your answers. First, this is the void. A dimension where neither time nor space exists.”

“I guess, that explains why Twilight is upside down again…”

(A little explanation for those who can’t imagine what I’m talking about: If there’s no space, there is no exactly defined surface. Gravity doesn’t exist, so you can walk in any direction you want. Not only back, forth, left or right, but also up and down. There are no physical borders so basically you always head for a random direction that changes throughout walking and you can’t do anything to control it. Understood? Then back to the story…)

“You still haven’t shown your face. At least I want to see who I'm talking to.” Twilight called.

I was honestly impressed. A few moments ago she broke out in tears, because of…yeah…and now she’s messing with motherbucking gods…or something like that.

“You want to see our true form? I must warn you. You might be frightened.”

“I’m not afraid of you. I want answers. Now!” Twilight said without any fear.

“As you wish…”

What happened next made me nearly shit my pants (although I don’t wear any).

At first nothing seemed to happen, but then four giant, red glowing balls appeared out of nowhere. Like I mentioned before, I nearly shit my pants. I tried to look away, but these giant…SUNS …seemed to follow me everywhere. Wherever I looked they were there (again, no space).

Then I realised that they were actually…eyes. The eyes of two enormous creatures! They were pitch-black. Not, that it was their colour or something. They hadn’t any colour. Their bodies were made of...void. It looked exactly like the darkness that surrounded everything here. However I could see their shapes. It was the strangest feeling I've ever had. They should disappear in the background like a chameleon, but I could clearly see their shapes.

I’m sorry that I repeat so often here, but there is simply no way to describe how all this looked like. The void is a place beyond human (or Pony) imagination. However i will try to describe those two creatures.

The first one had four legs. In a strange way it resembled a Pony, but only a little bit. On its back there seemed to be some sort of a giant fan. It looked a bit like the fan of a peacock. Its head was shaped very weird. The two glowing eyes were placed right at the front while the back of its head was stretched to an odd-looking length. The thing that really caught my attention was some kind of chest plate. It was shaped like five-pointed star turned upside down. In the middle of the star was a giant prism. It looked like a giant crystal and pulsated in a blue glow. A strange feeling, I couldn’t really explain told me that this was the ruler of time.

The second creature looked different. It stood on its hind legs and resembled a giant dragon. It had a long neck with a relatively small head. His arms ended in hand-like claws. It looked like its body was covered in some kind of armour. The most impressive thing about this one was its shoulder blades. In the middle of each shoulder blade was a red glowing orb. It seemed to be the equivalent to the prism of the ruler of time. Additionally this creature had some sort of wings growing from his shoulders. They looked quite small proportional to its massive body, so I guess they didn’t serve any other purpose but pure awesomeness. Just like the giant fan of the other one. Again, something told me, that this was the ruler of space.

I looked to Twilight. This time she finally seemed frightened.

“This is our true form. I warned you...”

“We’re not intimidated by this.” Twilight said, but didn’t sound as confident as before.

“Probably a little bit...” I stated carefully.

“SILENCE! We revealed enough. Equine creature, known as Xenos. Your time has come. You were not supposed to get to the land, called Equestria. To prevent complications we will send you back where you belong.”

“Wait, WHAT???” I was shocked. “I don’t want to go back. I’ve started a new live in Ponyville. My human life sucked. Why can’t I stay?”

“You’re causing irritations in the Space-time continuum. You’re a threat to the dimensional order. You must be removed."

I just gazed at them in disbelief. I held back the tears. After all I had been through I finally got the life I’ve ever wanted: nice friends, a good job, a very special person in my life...I didn’t want to give up all that.

“NO!” I shouted. “NO! NO! NO!”

“IT IS ENOUGH: We shall end this now.”

I had never been that scared before. I looked over to Twilight. She was shocked, but looked me right in the eye. I tried to get to her and hold her, but I failed navigating in the void. Something kept me from reaching her.

“NO! PLEASE NO!” I yelled.

I was crying too, now.

The two...gods...were charging their energy. I saw the prism and the orbs glow brighter. Then a sudden bright flash lit up the void. The whole void changed to white and for a brief moment I could see the faces of the two gods. They were motionless...

I tried to scream, but couldn’t. I felt the incredible power of time and space dissolving my body, changing my DNA, transporting me through eternity.

Then everything was black...

END OF CHAPTER 13

Authors note: I told you that you would be surprised. Come on, you didn't expect that. Anyway, if the "gods" of time and space reminded you of two certain fictional monsters then I suceeded. If they don't then forget what I said. See you next chapter.

Chapter 14: Dimensions

Chapter 14: Dimensions

I woke up. Everything seemed blurry. I felt like I just woke up from a dream. From a bad dream.

“Tw- Twilight?” I mumbled.

No answer.

My stomach churned. I tried to open my eyes and look around.

“Twilight?” I said a bit louder this time.

Still no answer.

Finally I realised where I was...The bathroom. The bathroom of the library. I was on the toilet, sitting with my pants down.

What had happened? I tried to remember.

“There was the void, and these two gods. And they said I had to go...wait! NO!”

I looked around in panic. I looked at my...hands...They were hands again.

“NO! This can’t be.” I sobbed.

I stood up and walked in circles. Could it really be? Was it just...a dream? I wasn’t entirely sure, but it was the only logical explanation.

But why did I fall asleep? I just took a dump. Did I faint while I pooped? That would be pretty embarrassing, but the only explanation so far. Then I realised that my pants were still down. After all that Pony stuff I wasn’t used to clothes anymore. This again let me doubt if it really had been just a dream.

I pulled up my pants, when I suddenly felt something stinging my leg. I reached for my pockets...and pulled out a rose. It was all withered, like it had been there for quite some time. However I couldn’t remember picking a rose.

Then I suddenly recognized the flower and my eyes filled with tears. It was the one rose I bought for Twilight, but forgot to give her. I tried hard not to cry. Everything was real. It all had happened and now...I lost everything. I clenched my fists, still holding the rose. Its thorns stung deep into my flesh, causing blood dripping on the floor. I didn’t care.

I was sad, angry, frustrated, hated my life, and wanted nothing more, but die right away. I was able to hold my emotions back. , though and left the library as fast as I could. I noticed the worried look the elderly woman at the counter gave me. I tried my best to give her some sort of a smile, but failed and just gave her a weird look. Then I busted out of the library and headed for the city, crying in frustration...

Switch to Twilight

Twilight woke up in the park. She looked around nervously.

“Xenos?” She whispered.

Nothing.

Twilight realised that she had no idea how she got here. She slowly tried to remember. She remembered being in the library...together with Xenos...and they were about to...share love. Then they were...suddenly...in the...void...and there were these creatures. And then they...

She sobbed.

“Then they sent him away...”

Twilight was desperate. She still had no idea why she was in the park. Then she suddenly realised where exactly she was. She was lying underneath the tree. The one tree she chose to sleep under before this certain unicorn stallion stepped into her life.

“But that means...that all this was...just a dream,...”

Twilight hyperventilated.

“NO! NO! This can’t be true. It wasn’t just a dream! It was real. IT WAS ALL REAL!” She cried.

Twilight tried to calm down and think logically.

“It must have been a dream. There’s no logical explanation for all this. But...why did I dream about a stallion, who came from another dimension. I dreamt about things I’ve never heard before. All this makes no sense.”

Twilight ran around in circles. Nothing made sense and this caused her to have a headache.

In her frustration she decided to do what she had never tried before and headed for the town, leaving a trail of tears behind.

Switch to Xenos

I walked through the city. I had no idea where to go. I just walked and walked and walked. I don’t know how long I was walking. I just remember that after some time, I went into a side street. It was a small and lonely side street. There were three waste containers. One was knocked over. I just sat down and leaned against the wall. Then I started crying. I cried for hours. And it just didn’t stop...

Switch to Twilight

Twilight entered the bar. There was only the barkeeper, a plum coloured Earth Pony with a cutie mark showing grapes and a strawberry. Twilight went up to her. She had never really talked to her, but she knew her name was Berry Punch...

Switch to Berry Punch

Berry Punch looked up, when a purple unicorn mare entered her bar. That was unusual. Normally nopony visited her bar before sunset. Berry recognized the unicorn. It was Twilight Sparkle, Element of Magic. Berry had heard a lot of gossip, means she always thought Twilight to be more formal. Not that kind of Pony who would walk into a bar as soon as the day broke.

When Twilight came closer, Berry noticed her red-rimmed eyes and the tears on her cheeks. Berry didn’t know exactly what happened, but her experience had taught her that it’s best not to ask.

“Heartsickness get us all one day...” She thought.

Twilight didn’t even have to say a word. Berry placed a bottle of liquor on the bar.

“Appleloosa Whiskey. There’s nothing better against heartache than this stuff.” Berry said.

Twilight didn’t even bother to say a word. She just grabbed the bottle with her magic and took a big sip.

“Must be something serious...” Berry thought with a grin.

Switch to Xenos

When I finally calmed down and stopped crying, all my sorrow turned into anger. No, not just anger, rage! I stood up, picked up a wooden board from the ground and hit it against the wall until it broke in two. I didn’t know what I was doing. I just ran around in circles and started randomly destroying things while screaming as loud as possible. Finally I couldn’t find any more things to break and busted out of the side street.

Occasionally I bumped into two guys.

“Whoa, what’s your fucking problem, retard.” One of them shouted.

I looked at them. Skinheads. Neonazis. I recognized them immediately. I always hated Nazis, but I would never start a fight because I knew I would never have a chance. But this time it was different. This time I was blinded by fury.

So I did what I should have never done. I punched one of the Skinheads right in the face. He stumbled back with a surprised look on his face, which immediately turned into anger. I was ready for a fight. Ready, like I had never been before. However, I had no chance. I was alone and they were two and they also had more fighting experience.

Long story short: I fainted after the first hit and woke up hours later. My head hurt as well as the rest of my body. One eye was swollen so I could barely see anything. I realised that one of my eyeglass lenses was broken and when I tried to get up I realised that some of my ribs were too. I had no one to blame, but still I hated everyone in the world. I didn’t know what to do, so I headed for the city-bridge, a big bridge, which was built over a highway...

Switch to Twilight

Twilight didn’t know how many drinks she had. She didn’t care. She just drank one bottle after another. Everything already seemed blurry. She noticed that Berry Punch had a worried look on her face.

“Don’t you think you had enough?” The plum coloured mare asked.

“Just shut up and give me another bottle.” Twilight answered harshly.

Berry sighed, but still pulled out another bottle. Twilight grabbed it and emptied it in one gulp. Then everything turned black.

Berry saw Twilight collapse. She didn’t try to catch her.

“Some have to learn it the hard way...”

Then she went around the counter and picked Twilight up from the floor. Fortunately she had a spare bed for such cases...

I was on the bridge, leaning on the balustrade. It was already around midnight.

I looked at the stars. It was a clear and beautiful night.

“Twilight would love it...” I thought, but immediately regretted it.

Tears ran down my face. I hated my life right now. I mean, I really hated it. As I looked down from the bridge, down at the cars passing by, I had this strange feeling. The strange feeling that it wouldn’t hurt...That it wouldn’t hurt...to JUMP.

Yes, I actually considered suicide that moment. You have to imagine my state of mind. I had just lost everything and there was no way to get it back.

“It’s actually really nice to die under the stars.”

That was the last thing I thought before I hit the ground...

Switch to the void

“Brother...”

“Yes?”

“Maybe we made a mistake...again.”

“What do you mean?”

“First we made the portal. It was our fault that he had come into this situation.”

“It was an accident. You know we have to create these portals to release the interdimensional pressure.”

“Yes, I know.”

“It was an your fault. You watch the time. You should have known that somebody was there.”

“I know. I still cannot explain it. That is the reason why I think we made a mistake.”

“What do you mean?”

“Look at them. I erased their mind, but they still remember everything. Maybe we were not supposed to tear them apart.”

“You know that this is impossible. WE decide what happens. It was our duty. He was a possible threat to the universal order. We could not take the risk.”

“But still, it feels...wrong”

“What do you mean by feel?”

“I do not know. It is a term used by our subjects. They use it frequently.”

“We do not make mistakes. We need to concentrate on our duties.”

“No! We made a mistake and we have to admit it!”

“I suppose you are right, brother. How do we make amends for this?”

“We send them back. We send them back to the time where we took them from.”

“But how do we manage it, without causing damage in space-time continuum?”

“I know how. We delete his original form. We delete him from the world inhabited by the species known as human. We make him an official inhabitant of the universe he travelled to.”

“That means a lot of work.”

“I know, but it was our mistake. Now it is our duty to set things right again.”

“It shall be. Let us focus our powers. Let us do...the right thing.”

END OF CHAPTER 14

Author's note: Kind of a sad one this time. One or two Chapters left than its done. Again, I want to thank you all for the support at this point. You are the reason why i'm writing this. I write it for the readers.

Chapter 15: Aftermath

Chapter 15: Aftermath

I woke up, opened my eyes and...looked right into Twilight’s eyes!

“Is this what happens after you die? Is this...like...heaven?”

I don’t believe in god or heaven or anything else I can’t explain, but was there any other explanation? I died. That’s for sure. So this must be afterlife or something.

“X-...Xenos...You’re back...You’re back again.” She stammered.

“Back?”

Then I realised where I actually was: The library back at the time when we got teleported to the void. It was all, just like before.

“But...how?...I was back on Earth...and I committed suicide. Why am I here again?”

Twilight didn’t say anything. She just smiled. She had tears in her eyes...tears of joy. Then she spoke up:

“I had this dream. This horrible dream, that you were...gone...”

I tried to look calm.

“It wasn’t a dream, Twilight...It was all real...It all happened...I was back there.”

Twilight looked stunned.

“Back? You mean like...back to your universe?”

I just nodded.

“Was it like...did you miss it...?” She asked carefully.

“No...no I didn’t...It has proven once again that I never want to go back there again...” I said.

I didn’t tell her that I actually wanted to kill myself.

Silence.

Then Twilight leaned forward and kissed me.

“This is definitely heaven” I thought when she gently forced her tongue into my mouth.

Suddenly her eyes opened wide. She blushed and backed off. I realised it at the same moment.

“Oops...” I said.

When Twilight kissed me she had to come closer...and I still had a boner and...yeah...

“Uhm...that’s...uhm...embarrassing...” I mumbled.

“Should we...like...continue...or something...?” Twilight asked, still red like a tomato.

“Probably yes"...before it gets even more uncomfortable...”

So we continued. I won’t give away details. It was my first time and it was her first time and it wasn’t that special (well, for me it was) so deal with it. Let’s just say...not only friendship is magic...

Eventually we...yeah...finished and then just lay there for a while.

I was happy. Not about the fact that I had actually lost my virginity, but that I was back. I looked out of the window, up to the night sky. I didn’t know why, but I was sure that somewhere out there, two mythical creatures had done...the right thing. I turned my head to Twilight. She was already asleep. I just smiled and snuggled closer against her, enjoying her soft fur, the smell of her mane, her calm breath...just cuddling...

“Xenos?...Do you know...what I just realised...?” She suddenly said with her eyes closed.

“What is it?”

“I just noticed that you have an aura now...”

“So I am..?”

“Yes, you are a real Pony now...”

I looked out of the window again.

“Thank you...”

...

Switch to the void

“You were right, brother. It was the right thing to do.”

“Indeed.”

“You know, what I was thinking of? Maybe all this was supposed to happen. Maybe all this was destined by a power, greater than ours.”

“What makes you think so?”

“The fact, that we did not notice that he was there when I created the portal. The fact that we could not delete their memories about each other.”

“Maybe there is. Maybe it is what they call...love... It seems that there are things we shall never experience.”

“Maybe, maybe not. You feel it too, right?”

“Feel what?”

“That warm feeling. The feeling that you did...the right thing.”

“I suppose you are right. I can sense it too.”

...

“Feels good.”

“Indeed.”

“I need a hug now.”

“Me too...”

THE EN-

Wait!

What?

What happened to Doctor Hooves and Ditzy? What did they do after their date?

This, actually, is a different story...

Oh come on!

Okay, okay I’ll tell you:

Switch to Doctor Whooves

Doctor Whooves, woke up with a pounding in his head. He couldn’t remember what happened. Just that he was on a date with Ditzy...and that there was a lot of wine.

“I’m not used to alcohol...”

Where was he anyway? He just wanted to look around when he heard a pleased squeak, right next to him.

“Oh, Doc, that was wonderful.” Ditzy smiled.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!”

But now...

THE END

Final author's note: That's it. The story is complete. A final feedback would be nice. By the way, if you liked it I have good news for you: I have material for at least 3 sequels, featuring all your favourite villians, more action, more drama, more Derpy. Just keep watching, I will upload the first chapter in another story in a few days. I will also put a link in the description of this one. Story will be called "Tales of a Brony 2" or something like that.

Anyway, at this point: A big thank you to all of my readers. Your comments always motivated me to keep this up.

Chapter 3: How not to introduce yourself

Chapter 3: How not to introduce yourself

A sudden splash of cold water threw me out of unconsciousness. The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was a blurry purple and green blot right in front of me. It took a few seconds for me to realise what had actually happened.

I had fallen into the portal-thingy and got teleported into another dimension. That was for sure. But what was this dimension like? Suddenly the colourful blot started to talk! I couldn’t understand a word. Everything seemed to happen in slow-motion. Suddenly a terrible thought struck me.

“What if I’m in a parallel dimension, where giant, colourful, talking insects are the ruling species? Oh god, it’s probably already about to eat my genitals. Quick! I have to cover them with my hands!”

That’s when I realised that I had no hands. I also realised that my arms were...green.

“Oh gawd, it already chewed off my hands! And he coloured my whole body! What is this? Some kind of intelligent bug-pervert?”

I tried to shout, but all that came out of my mouth was some hoarse muttering.

“Get...your...claws off...my genitals...monster-bug!”

That was all I managed to say.

“Calm down. I’m not going to...uhm...whatever and by the way I’m a dragon not a bug.” The monster answered.

His voice sounded oddly familiar. I was sure that I had heard it multiple times before, although I couldn’t tell where.

As my view gradually got better, I could finally see who or what was sitting in front of me. And suddenly I knew where I was.

The purple blot was no one other than Spike! This also explained where my hands were gone. They were simply transformed into hooves, because I was simply transformed into a Pony. I don’t know if there’s some kind of transdimensional law which turns all dimension travellers into a life form with an equivalent evolutionary status in the current dimension and actually I don’t care.

“Are you alright? No offense, but you act a bit...weird...” The purple dragon said.

“Was I alright? I didn’t know. I didn’t feel different. Well...except that I was a Pony.”

“Do you have a mirror somewhere? I need to have a look at myself.” I asked Spike.

“There’s one right over there, but if I was you I would be more worried about my state of health than about my mane. I mean you were unconscious” The little dragon gave me a disparaging look.

“It’s not because of my mane, Spike!” I gave him a dirty look.

Then I realised what I just said.

“How did you know my name? Who are you anyway?”

I sighed.

“I actually didn’t want to start it that way, but due to my own stupidity, I have to reveal you my whole story right now, I guess!”

So I told him everything that happened so far, from the time where I left my house to the spot when I fell into the portal. I left out the fact that I forgot to pull up my pants, because I didn’t know if there was such a thing as pants in Equestria. I finished the story and looked at Spike, expecting some kind of reaction like: “Wow, that’s awesome, you’re so cool!”

Reality was a bit different, though.

What happened was that the little dragon burst out laughing.

“Ok that was a hilarious story, why don’t you tell me where you actually came from?”

I sighed again. What should I do? I told him the truth and he didn’t believe me (when I think back I have to admit, that I wouldn’t have believed myself either).

I was trying to make up a believable story, when suddenly the entrance door opened. Both Spike and I turned our head to the door. Standing there was a purple mare with a confused expression on her face...Twilight Sparkle! Although I expected something like this to happen I was still excited like a little child at its birthday.

“OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh! I’m meeting the main character of the greatest cartoon show ever!”

I was barely able to hide my excitement. I started to hop from one foot (hoof!) to the other.

“Spike! How did you get him to wake up?” She asked the little dragon.

“Like everyone would do. I splashed a bucket of water in his face.”

That was when I realised that I was all wet.

“Who is he anyway?” Spike asked.

“I don’t know I found him in the park, lying on the ground. I couldn’t leave him there, but now that you’re awake, you can probably tell us yourself, Sir.” Twilight turned to me.

“Be careful Twilight, he seems a bit strange.” Spike whispered.

“Spike! That’s not the way to treat a guest!”

She turned to me again.

“I’m sorry for my assistant’s behaviour. He can be a little hasty sometimes. So, please tell me. What happened to you. I never saw you around Ponyville. Do you come from somewhere else? Why were you unconscious? Did you have an accident?” She asked all that things rapidly without inhaling.

I sighed.

“I guess I have to tell YOU my story too.”

So I told her the same story I already told Spike. I expected her to break out laughing like Spike, or at least giggle at me, but none of that happened. She also looked more like being interested than being confused.

“So you’re a...how do you call it? Human?” Twilight asked me.

“To be exact, I was.” I noted.

“That doesn’t explain why he knew my name before somepony mentioned it!” Spike interrupted.

“He did? I mean-.” She turned to me. “You did? How?”

“Well...that’s kinda hard to explain...” I nervously answered.

The following 15 minutes I spent trying to explain a studious mare and a sceptical dragon, that there was a cartoon-show on TV about them in my world. Then I spent another 15 minutes trying to explain what TV was. I will spare you with the details. Let’s just say I felt like I was explaining the theory of relativity to a four year-old child, while being so excited that I barely had any control over my voice.

Twilight smiled at me awkwardly, while Spike looked at me as if I was some kind of a maniac. If I wasn’t already wet from the water Spike had splashed in my face I would have been now, because of all the sweat, my body had been producing in the last few minutes.

“So you’re trying to tell me that you know what happened since I came to Ponyville, and that we don’t physically exist in your universe but only fictionally, right?”

“Uhm...yes?” I began to feel more and more uncomfortable.

Suddenly the awkward expression on her face disappeared and was replaced by a bright smile.

“That’s absolutely fascinating. Parallel dimensions really exist. I could write a book about it.” Twilight was literally bursting from excitement. “You have to tell me everything about your universe. This will be-“ She suddenly stopped.

“I mean if you, want to, of course.” She continued a little bit more restrained. “Do you know how to get back to...your universe?”

“I have no idea.” I admitted.

Switch to Twilight

This was so exciting. A life form from another universe! And it (or better: he) was even able to talk. She had so many questions.

Suddenly she finally found out what made him seem so different to other ponies: His aura!

Unicorns are born with the magic ability to sense other ponies’ auras. Every pony has its own unique aura. While unicorns have a very strong magical aura, pegasi and Earth ponies have almost none. Unicorns can’t really see auras but they can feel that they’re there.

Now what was special about this stallion's aura was the fact that he had none! This could have been marked as a strange coincidence, not worth more than a few studies or tests, if this stallion didn’t claim to be from an alternate universe. And what was even stranger was that Twilight noticed this phenomenon on another Pony some time ago. And this certain Earth Pony was called...

END OF CHAPTER 3

Author's note: You probably already know which Earth Pony I'm writing about. If not...wait for the next chapter.
