“How do you get from one place to another? What kind of humans are there?? Why are you so tall but so slim?” these were just some of the many questions I was being asked from the three ponies while we were walking to to ‘Rarity’. They didn't even let me answer the questions before trailed off into asking other questions.
We had been walking and talking for what felt like minutes, everything was happening so fast. First a strange storm, then a bright light, then a new world full of magical talking ponies! I quickly learned that this world is called Equestria and it is filled with ponies of different colours, and species, pegasi, unicorns and normal ponies. They had butt tattoos called cutie marks which represents who you are and your talent, but you only get it when you find your talent which explains why Big Mac and AppleJack had one but AppleBloom didn’t have one.
I didn't know why I didn’t freak out at first and why I am not freaking out right now, but for some reason I all the stress and pain I had back on Earth was relieved. It’s like happiness has completely taken over me, and even if there would be a situation of sorrow or anger I wouldn’t have had any negative emotions. Even the stones on the road that are jabbing my feet don’t hurt that much like they would back on Earth.
“What is under that cloth you are wearing? Can we see?” questioned AppleBloom which suddenly snapped me out of my thoughts and made me blush, but this time they waited for answer. They all looked at me in concern with an eyebrow raised which was easy for me to make out.
“Uhhhh…” was all that came from my mouth, I looked at all of the three ponies in embarrassment
“Come on AppleBloom if he doesn't want to tell us, he doesn't have to” AppleJack said to AppleBloom
“Awww… but I’m curious to know what's under there” cutely moaned AppleBloom, which made me want to hug the small pony
“Anyways” said Big Mac which snapped me out of my daydream “how old are you?”
“Fourteen” I answered, looking at the three ponies who had their jaws slightly dropped like in a cartoon. “what? is that bad?” I asked.
“No not at all sugarcube” said AppleJack “It’s just that you're so tall… and slim but still so young” she looked at me in concern.
“oh really?” I was only about 5.8 feet tall which I don’t know myself if that is tall or just average
“Eyyyup” said Big Mac awkwardly, this was the first time he spoke after we left to go to the pony named Rarity. I didn't realize until now that we were walking just about twenty meters away from a town which I am guessing is Ponyville. It had colorful old fashion houses with hay roofs, there was a circular tower which stood out from all the houses. It wasn't that tall but it was tall enough to be easily picked out. We continued to walk to Rarity for a couple more minutes before we saw her boutique in site.
“We’re almost there” said AppleBloom excitedly jumping on AppleJack’s back which looked painful, but AppleJack took no notice of it.
“Where?” I asked in curiosity
“There!” AppleBloom pointed with her hoof to a circular building that got smaller the closer it got the the peak of the building, it wasn't as big as the other circular building but it stood out more from all the other buildings because of it’s pink and blue color. Behind the windows were a bright light which had a slight unusual purple tint to them.
My observations was cut off by AppleBloom poking my back with a worried looking face.
“Is it normal for you to have blood looking liquid coming out from the back of your head?” she questioned. I froze and remembered back on Earth when I hit my head on the ground because of the thing that was wrapped around my ankle. I slowly put my hand on the back of my head so I didn't hurt it in any way, I didn't feel any pain at all, not even any numbness.
“Are you okay sugarcube?” asked AppleJack who trotted next to me and gestured me to sit down, and I did so. I sat crossed legged to see that the soles of my feet were covered in cuts and bruises, somehow I didn't feel any pain in my feet either, I touched the back of my head. I felt that my hair was damp with blood probably and full of dried scabs, I didn't realize it until now, why didn't the three ponies realize it before?
I removed my hand to see that it was completely covered in pure fresh blood, I only looked at it but didn't panic. AppleJack’s and AppleBloom’s jaw dropped when they saw my hand.
“We need to take him to the hospital Mac!!!” AppleJack yelled at Big Mac, he only looked at her and with a straight face.
“But AppleJack, we donno if his body works the same as our bodies, the doctor could hurt him if he does something wrong to his body. I think we need to go to Twilight I’m sure she’ll know what to do” pointed out AppleBloom
“yeah” AppleJack exhaled and closed her eyes before she spoke again “please take Brandon and AppleBloom to Twilight I will get Rarity and the others” Big Mac only nodded and looked down at me, I really didn’t know what was going on right now. I was dizzy and my head was thick and cloudy, I couldn’t think straight and I started to feel sick, but no pain.
“But AppleJack…!” was stopped by AppleJack before she could finish her sentence
“No buts AppleBloom” said AppleJack “ go with Big Mac to Twilight’s he will need help… I will bring Sweetie Belle over so you won't die from boredom” she signaled AppleBloom to go to Big Mac and she did.
“Can you walk?” echoed Big Mac’s voice in my head over and over again, he looked at me in concern and so did AppleBloom, AppleJack was already gone.
“Wha-?” was all I could say. I couldn’t speak properly, I tried to get up on both feet but I fell on my back halfway through my attempt. Now everything started to swirl and turn in my mind, I felt even more sick now and felt like I was going to regurgitate. I felt Big Mac’s hoof wrap around me awkwardly and slowly pulled me up on his muscular back, AppleBloom helped push me up by pushing by ass.
I heard Big Mac say something but I couldn’t make it out, I could only hear the echoes of Big Mac’s and AppleBloom’s muffled voices. He was walking at a medium pace because I could feel Big Mac’s shoulders move up and down massaging my left shoulder and my left thigh. I was completely dead now, my stomach now spun inside my body, my heart beat harder and faster and I had pins and needles all over my body.
I let out a loud groan which caught AppleBloom’s attention to walk by me, she looked at me in worry and concern and said something to me that I couldn’t make out. I tried to read her lips but I couldn’t do that either. I only just looked at her and let my head drop, I tried to sleep the strange feelings off but it didn’t work. I just laid there, waiting to be taken to a different pony.
For what felt like hours I was pushed and pulled by AppleBloom back onto Big Mac’s back whenever I was slipping or bumping off his back. I nearly fell asleep during my raging feelings but, I was stopped by AppleBloom who pushed my ass really hard to push me back onto Big Mac which I replied to with a load groan. I wanted look up but such a painful force struck my neck that I couldn't lift it at all. I closed my eyes and breathed slowly, and before I knew it I fell asleep.
I was woken up by painful slap to my ass by a hard surface that made me yelp in pain. I slowly moved my head around to see if the pain in my neck wore off, I slowly lifted my head which only a small pain hit me which didn't bother me that much. I was still on Big Mac’s back, and it was freezing cold, god I wished I had went to Rarity’s instead. I looked right to see that I was on a different path, unlike the previous path, this path was smooth and a light brown. Also around me were the houses of Ponyville I saw earlier before, there were also a bunch of ponies of different species and colors following me.
But before I could inspect more I was lifted up by a ticklish green force around me that lifted me about half a meter in the air. I panicked a bit and looked down to see a green trotting unicorn next to Big Mac who looked at me in excitement. The unusual thing was that I didn't feel any pain or body feelings anymore, it was like my body is now completely immune to pain and strange feelings. But the scary thing was that the unicorn just stared at me in excitement, she didn't even look away to see where she was going. Her horn was glowing the same color as the green force around me so I guessed she was making me fly.
"Put him down Lyra, I know you are happy to see a human in Equestria, but ya'll want that pain spell to last the most don't you?" said Big Mac, this was the first person no, pony I could hear properly for quite some time. I put my hand on the back of my head to see if I was still bleeding, but it was clean and not damp at all, it was like my fall never happened!
“Wha…?” I was all I could say, more stuff was happening before I could register them in my head. I had a head covered in blood from my fall, I felt like shit, a small pony kept on touching my ass, a big ass crowd following me, a green unicorn who looks like she is obsessed with me, and… a huge ass crystal tree in front of me.
I didn't know how I didn't see it before but, right in front of me stood a tall crystal castle looking tree. It had a purply blue trunk looking bottom with two grand golden doors and stairs, it got smaller the closer it went up and then had branch looking sides which stuck out and held the top part of the ‘castle’. The top held purple buildings with a grand balcony at the front, but the thing that amazed me the most had to be the huge crystal star at the top. It only balanced at one point and it looks like it would topple over, but it somehow didn't.
I was put on the ground by the green unicorn, then I was slapped on the ass again by the same hard surface, I looked back to a see through green wooden plank. I realized it was the green unicorn who was slapping me on the ass.
“Hey! Quit spanking my ass would you?” I said to the unicorn who was kneeling towards the castle, so did Big Mac, AppleBloom and the ponies who were following behind. I looked back at the castle to see a tall purple unicorn no, pegasus no, a pegasus-unicorn? I was confused, I was told about unicorns and pegasi, but nothing about unicorns with wings, or pegasi with a horn. The pegasus-unicorn had a dark purply blue mane with a pink and purple stripe behind her horn, her tail was the same. Her cutie mark was a star that looked familiar to the star I saw at the top of the castle, but the thing that interested me the most was the crown she was wearing.
I was snapped out from my inspections, when I got the same painful smack on my ass, I looked angrily at the still kneeling green unicorn.
“Kneel doooown!” she said in a loud whisper
“huh?” it took me some time to puzzle the pieces together, Ponyville, the castle, the kneeling and the crown. She was a Queen! But before I could kneel down I was pushed down to the ground by the green unicorns magical force.
“I thought humans were clever!” whispered the green unicorn in a slightly annoyed tone in her voice.
“What and who is this? came a soft and calming voice in front of me. I looked up to see the Queen right in front of me, she looked less dominant than before now she was up close. She had tuft of hair on her chest which stood out from her fur, also her eyes were a awkward purple a bit darker than her fur.
“Please stand everypony” said the Queen in a loud voice but with a teenage squeek to her voice. I slowly stood up and looking up at the Queen with steady eyes, she only looked at me in confusion and concern. Everyone already stood up and were looking at me, when I finally stood up I stood up straight and tried not to move, but I kept on shivering because of the cold even though it was a hot day.
“So wha-who is this?” asked the Queen in concern looking at me with a uneasy face
“Princess Twilight, this is Brandon” said Big Mac in his normal deep voice, but he said ‘Princess’ not Queen. I was close but not close enough. I just realized but Twilight was the name of the pony we were suppose to see “He’s a human who landed at our farm bout an hour ago”
“H-human? Princess Celestia told me tales about this ancient creature arriving Equestria with no actual knowing of how it got here. Then it brang chaos and disharmony to all the ponies it met and saw and…” Princess Twilight was snapped out of her story when she looked back at me realizing I was standing right in front of her. “Oh sorry” she sheepishly squeaked
“It’s fine… It’s not like am surprised anyways” I said to the Princess in a small groan remembering how much my life sucks. I saw in the corner of my eye that the green unicorn was staring at me, and my body again. The crowd behind us were still standing there looking at me with their glaring eyes.
Big Mac coughed signaling Princess Twilight to make the crowd go back to their homes. Twilight took notice of the crowd who still stood their and flew up to the crowd and shouted something I couldn’t make out because I was too distracted from topping the green unicorn of attempting to put her face in my boxers.
Twilight came back to us and signaled for the four of us to come in her castle, she slowly walked forward and the three ponies followed her. I looked back to see if the crowd was still there but they were slowly leaving, some of the ponies looked back at me, before they kept on walking back to what they were doing.
I jogged back to the four ponies who were already at the castle door, and the green unicorn waited for me with her big smile at the door until I got there. I went up the gold steps and which were cold against my bare feet and then made to the door which I closed behind me into the castle of a pony princess.
A cold wind blew against my face and chest, which made me shiver and woke me up from my sleep. A soft comfy bed was beneath me that kept my back warm, but there was no blanket over me. I searched around with my hands and legs to find the blanket but I couldn’t find it so I gave up and I quickly tried to recap what happened recently, but nothing popped up into my head, I thought again but something did came into my head, my hand covered with blood, being taken by someone to a big crystal castle, and met a princess called Twilight, but what were they? I thought again. Ponies!
I quickly lifted my head and my body with my eyes still closed, I was tired and I didn’t want to get up, but yet I wanted the overflowing amount of questions I wanted to ask to be answered. I got off the bed and put my feet on a soft fuzzy carpet. I moved onto a cold marble like floor, it made me shiver and scrunch up my face for a moment. I stepped forward slowly with my arms in front of me but I heard light clopping on the floor outside which made me open my eyes.
I was in a blue crystal room full of books and book shelves, it had two doors which were open with blue curtains that blew into the room from the cold wind, it was most probably a balcony. The walls were covered of photos of the same six ponies all packed together smiling at the photo in different positions and locations. Two pegasi ponies, one was yellow with a light pink mane and tail and the other was light blue with a rainbow coloured mane and tail. Two normal ponies, AppleJack, the orange one with a blonde mane and tail and a western hat, and a pink pony who had a darker pink mane and tail. And then two unicorns, well one unicorn who was white and had a purple mane and tail and Twilight the pegasus-unicorn princess who was purple and had a darker purple mane and tail. They all seemed to be females from the female looking features.
I looked behind me to see a king sized bed that I laid on, it had a dark blue sheet and comfy purple pillows, and a purple duvet that was merely hanging off the left edge of the bed, which made me groan. I somehow didn’t feel the blanket that was right beside my legs.
I looked up to see a open crystal door with a gold doorknob. But inside the open door was a yellow pony with light pink hair that was neatly combed to one side of her face. She also had two extended wings which looked delicate and looked like they wouldn’t be able to carry her at all.
I looked at her and opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came out except a medium pitched ‘uh’. The yellow pony looked at my general direction but didn't look at me directly, she was the yellow pegasus in the pictures. I looked at her and tried to make eye contact, but she just always looked away whenever she saw me looking at her.
“So uhhh, what’s your name?” I asked the yellow pegasus trying to stir up a conversation
“oh, my...?” she looked at the floor for a second before looking back up at my general direction “M-my name is Fluttershy” she squeaked quietly, I didn’t hear her and I raised my eyebrows
“Uh, excuse me? I didn’t... hear you”
“My, my name is Fluttershy” she said a bit louder
“Fluttershy?” I questioned just in case I heard her wrong. She nodded slowly and made eye contact with me for a brief second before looking away again. Fluttershy, huh. What a cute name.
"Um. Twilight... wants to see you... um, Flash will take you to her... I mean if you want to" she said quietly which I didn't reply to.
I looked down to see I wore no clothing except my boxers that had left a small light red mark around my hip. But there was one thing that disturbed me, there were darker skin tone outlines on my entire body which looked quite cartoonish. I didn’t realize until now which freaked me out, I stroked my hand along my opposite arm. Nothing felt different at all. I shivered and looked back at Fluttershy who was looking at what seemed my chest and pelvis. I gave a slight cough and she looked away with a red face from what seemed like blushing.
“S-sorry, it’s just I never saw a… um a human before and well… I um...” she said in a soothing voice trying to explain, but gave up halfway through
“It’s fine, I would do the same if I was in your position” I said, I looked back down to continuing examining my new looking body. I looked closer at the hairs on my arm to see they stood out more from the last time I checked back on Earth.
“Um, Fluttershy? Is there a mirror somewhere?” I questioned looking back up to see she was gone. I moved back onto to the fuzzy carpet and hopped back on the bed, I rolled towards the other side of the bed. I got to the other side and put my feet on the same fuzzy carpet on the other side of the bed, it was a huge purple carpet that the bed lay on.
I walked towards the door and peeked my head out to see a big indoor balcony that overlooked a big room with a table that was stacked with papers and a pony sat there reading the papers, there was also a big purple star marking on the floor that I could see perfectly.
There were staircases from both sides of the balcony leading down to the room, I walked down the stairs away from the bars because they were as high as my waist which just made me feel uncomfortable.
I looked at pictures on the walls of pictures of Twilight with other ponies and animals, which most probably could talk too. She had an open smile in all of them and most of the time had the pictures taken in the same location.
I looked back down the stairs to see an orange pony with shining gold armor that covered him completely except his face and legs. He had a crest on his helmet which was the same colour as his short cut tail, he had golden shoes on his hooves and also had a blue star on his chest plate. He looked up at me walking down the stairs and opened his mouth to say something.
“Human?” he called in a gentle but manly voice
“Uuuhhh Yeah?” I answered back
“Princess Twilight has told me to call you down to her and her friends. She would like to speak with you” he addressed. I got down to the bottom of the stairs and looked down on him, he was only as high as my bottom rib. He looked up at me and his eyes widened, but he quickly turned around to face the door and coughed gently.
“Follow me” I did so and I recognised two wings that relaxed on his armour covered back, he was a pegasus.
“Soooo uhh, you must be Flash"
"Yes. How do you know?" he asked
"Oh uh, Fluttershy told me your gonna take me to Twilight"
"Oh yeah. She just went not long ago to Twilight"
"Oh. Do you know how long I have slept?” I asked
“Oh I don’t know, I just came here not long ago back from Canterlot to do some royal training” he chatted
“Canterlot?” I questioned not sure where or what it kind of place it was.
“Oh the capital of Equestria! Equestria is the country we are in right now by the way” he snickered “Canterlot is the great city of the Princesses of the Night and Day!” he said in a proud and cheerful voice
“Princesses of the Night and Day!?” I asked
“Yes, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna” he said “Look! There is a picture of both of them right there!” He stopped and pointed his right hoof at three paintings that hang on one side of the wall. We walked up to the paintings and there were three ponies on the walls, one was white with a cyan, light green, light purple and a light pink mane and tail. A light pink one that had a purple, pink and yellow mane and tail and a dark blue one that had a lighter shade of her fur for her mane and tail.
"By the way. The one on the left is Princess Celestia the one in the middle is Princess Cadence, and the last one is Princess Luna"
“You said there were two, so why are there three here?” I asked
“Oh because Cadance, is the Princess of Love and lives in The Crystal Palace not Canterlot, and Princess Twilight is…”
“...Twilight?” I interrupted remembering the purple princess pony.
“Yes Twilight the Princess of Magic”
“So why isn’t there a painting of her?” I questioned a little bit confused
“Oh because the Princess of the castle has paintings of the other princesses but not herself, don’t ask me why. I don’t know myself”
“What about Queens?”
“Oh Queens? We don’t have a Queen. Princess Celestia was suppose to be Queen a very very very long time ago but her sister, Luna was already angry enough that ponies slept during the night, so Celestia let is pass so she and Luna could be equal”
“Oh wow”
“Yeah I know, but I heard from Princess Twilight that you come from another world, tell me how it is like over there” he requested
“There really is no point, I am going to meet Princess Twilight and her friends and they are going to ask me the same question right?. So can we wait till then?” I asked
“Yes, of course”
We quietly walked down corridors, big rooms and down many flights of stairs covered with guards and normal ponies who looked kinda posh who all eyed me.
We finally got to a big purple double door with a big purple star that looked familiar to the star on floor back at the big room where I met Flash. Flash stood beside the right door and knocked
“Princess Twilight! He is here” he said in a loud but calm voice. I heard clopping getting louder and louder on the other side of the door until it stopped right at the door. I purple magical glow surrounded both doors which hurt my eyes, I walked back slowly and the doors slowly opened revealing a blue light through the creek between both doors.
The doors opened a bit faster revealing more of what was behind the doors, a purple pony with a pink glowing horn on her forehead and a gold crown. She had a dark purple mane and tail which had a pink and purple line going through the middle that was perfectly combed, Princess Twilight.
The door opened more to reveal three other ponies standing beside Princess Twilight, one taller than the other. A taller pink pony stood to the right of Twilight with a purple, pink and yellow mane and tail. A even taller dark blue pony with a lighter shade of her fur colour for her mane and tail which shined and looked glittery stood to the left of Twilight. But the tallest out of all the ponies was a white one with a cyan, light green, light purple and a light pink mane and tail. All four of the ponies had long horns and wings, and golden crowns. They were the four Princesses!
I kneeled down with my right leg up and my left leg on the floor, my right arm behind my back and the other arm at my my front. I had my head faced down for whatever reason they done that back on Earth, I only bowed down in school plays when I was younger, whenever I played a slave or someone in front of the 'Queen' in the plays.
Multiple metallic clopping came my way and stopped right before me.
"You may rise" came a calming voice above me. I slowly got up and lifted my head to look straight into the white princesses eyes, Princess Celestia. She had beautiful pink eyes and her mane covered half of her left eye, which made her look cute. I was only 8 inches away from the Princess and I could see the warm fuzzy looking fur on her muzzle and little whiskers of hair stood out. She was slightly shorter than me but her horn was about 4 inches above my head. She had a slight smile that looked calming and soothing.
I then looked at the other three princesses who stood beside her forming a semicircle. Princess Luna and Cadence looked at my entire body not having seen a human before but Twilight just looked at my face.
I looked back Princess Celestia who still had a smile and kept on looking at me.
"So... uh Hi..." was all I could manage before my brain went completely derp.
"Hello... Let's introduce ourselves to this young man shall we? My name is Princess Celestia" she said bowing down before me
"Princess Luna" said Luna and bowed down too
"Princess Cadence" said Cadence and bowed down too
"Princess Twilight" said Twilight and bowed down. They all raised and looked at me probably expecting me to tell them my name as well.
"Brandon" I said and bowed down to the princesses
"Brandon. You may rise" said Princess Celestia. I got up and looked at the princesses, they all turned to the doors and Celestia looked back at me
"Follow us" she requested and I did so. I walked past the orange pegasus and he looked up at me.
"You know how to make an appearance" he joked and walked in with me as the doors shut behind us.
I asked and was asked thousands of questions by all of the princesses, about how Earth looks, how do humans live, what types of humans are there, how tall can humans get, all those type of questions. But when Cadence asked me what do we eat, I hesitated replying for some reason before answering the question
"Meat and vegetables" I said before they all gasped "What? Did I say something wrong? I questioned not understanding why they were so shocked.
"You said you eat meat" spoke up Cadence.
"Yeah, I did, most humans eat meat" as I said that I remembered that horses and ponies ate hay back on Earth and a horse eating meat would just be so retarded, and a pony who could talk, think and be like a human would probably be disturbed by meat eating animals.
I looked back up at the princesses to see their mixed expressions. Princess Celestia looked concerned but calm so did Princess Luna, but Princess Cadence and Princess Twilight had big frowns.
"But you eat vegetables?" asked Twilight.
"Yes of course" I replied "I don't have to eat meat that much" I added trying to make the situation better.
"Hmmm, okay I think we have talked enough for today. I and Luna have some important business to attend to back in Canterlot, time has gone ahead of us so we must hurry" said Princess Celestia as she and Luna got up from the crystal chairs and moved towards the open doors. I think I might have just scared off the princesses because of the meat eating situation.
"Wait" I got up from my chair and walked towards the two princesses who looked back at me and waited for whatever I wanted to say "I just wanted to ask if you have any ideas how I got from my world to here?" I asked just wanting to know any ideas of how I got here.
Princess Celestia stayed silent for a second before opening her mouth.
"No, I don't" she said, I nodded
"We shall speak again when it is available in Canterlot, hopefully having some information about your arrival, but up until then. Have a great time Equestria!" cheerfully said Princess Celestia and left the room with Luna beside her.
I looked back at Princess Cadence and Twilight who looked like they have calmed down after the meat eating situation.
"So what now?" I asked walking back to my chair and sitting down.
"Brandon, I would like to you to meet five of my great friends" Twilight said to me and looked at the open doors where a group of five colourful ponies stood.
Two pegasi ponies, Fluttershy the yellow one with the light pink mane and tail and the other one was light blue with a rainbow coloured mane and tail. Two normal ponies, AppleJack, the orange one with a blonde mane and tail and a western hat, and a pink pony who had a darker pink mane and tail. And then one unicorn who was white and had a purple mane. They were the five ponies who were next to Twilight in the pictures back in the bedroom.
"Howdy Brandon, you look way better than the last time I saw ya" greeted AppleJack
"Yeah, and I feel way better than the last time we saw" I said
"Well ain't that good?"
"Yep" I said. Twilight walked beside me and exhaled lightly
"Brandon these are Rarity, the element of Generosity" she pointed at the white unicorn who swayed her hair to the side "AppleJack, the element of Honesty. Fluttershy the element of Kindness. Pinkie Pie the element of Laughter" Twilight pointed at the pink normal pony which kept on hopping with a big smile which kinda creeped me out. "And Rainbow Dash, the element of Loyalty" she pointed at the the light blue pegasus with the rainbow mane and tail.
"Yeah, I'm pretty loyal and awesome" said Rainbow Dash as she flew up did a flip about two metres from the ground and back down on all four hooves. Show off.
"And I Twilight, am the element of Magic. And together we are the elements of Harmony!" said Twilight smiling to her friends
"Elements of Harmony? That sounds like something from a fantasy book" I said. I read a fair amount of books on Earth, most of them were fictional, but I was also interested in factual books with anything to do with war, or weaponry
"Um Princess Twilight?" I asked
"Yes Brandon"
"Before I arrived in Equestria, I hit my head really badly that it caused me to pass out and a lot if blood come out, also in Equestria I had cuts and bruises on my feet. But I didn't feel any pain or numbness at all. And then when I was on the way here I was all dizzy and didn't feel well and then after I felt better and also all my blood, cuts and bruises were gone. Why?" I questioned giving Twilight a lot to answer.
"Oh well..." Twilight closed her eyes and thought for a second before opening her eyes again and opened her mouth to speak "When you arrived here your brain and body was new to Equestria and here in Equestria we have Equestrian magic. And this Equestrian magic went in your body to make you part of Equestria, it's magic and happiness. And when it done that it encountered your cuts, bruises and blood which was powerless because your body wasn't fully united with the Equestrian magic so it easily overtook the negative feelings and completely removed it from your body for the time, so that's why you didn't feel any pain. And then it went to your brain but it takes some time for the short term effects to start taking effect so that's why you were dizzy and didn't feel well later. And when the dizziness stopped that means the magic successfully united you to Equestria. And then the reason you lost your bruises, cuts and blood was because Lyra the humanologist did a healing spell that did have a slight side effect of you collapsing as soon as you entered the castle"
"Wow that's a lot of things at one time. And I collapsed!?" I asked astonished
"Yeah, you did! You dropped like a ready apple from a tree" chuckled AppleJack
"So that's why I woke up on a bed today?"
"Yes. And Brandon, Princess Celestia gave me and my friends the honour to teach you about Equestria and to show the ways of a pony, if you want to blend in" said Twilight looking at her five friends.
"I'm fine with that" I said
"Oh and also, you are going to have sleep in one of our places for the time being. Even though a lot of the rooms in my castle need filling, I will let you decide where you want to sleep"
"I'm fine with wherever I sleep, you guys can discuss who can have me to sleep at theirs"
"Oh, well girls, who wants Brandon to sleep at their house?" asked Twilight, and they got me surprised me by a mile. All five ponies had their hooves stuck straight up, except of Fluttershy's which way lower than other ponies hooves.
"I had my hoof up first" said Rainbow Dash with a big smirk on her face.
"You didn't, Ah did, I had my hoof up before she even get to finish the sentence" protested AppleJack,which was replied by a 'no you didn't, I did' and kept repeating
"Urgh! Girls stop fighting! We all know I had my hoof up first" said Rarity in a posh and cheeky sounding sounding voice.
"Nononononono you didn't I DID!!!" shouted Pinkie coming from nowhere. All four ponies looked at each other with big frowns before they all argued with Fluttershy sitting in the middle of it all.
"Um guys?" said Fluttershy, which none of the raging ponies took notice of. I opened my mouth to stop all of the ponies but Twilight put her hoof on my shoulder and shook her head slowly.
"Let Fluttershy stop them" she convinced which I followed
"Are they always like this?" I asked
"Yeah, from time to time" replied Twilight
"Uh guys? Maybe we shou-" Fluttershy tried to catch the ponies attention again but she was stopped by Rainbow Dash who raised her voice more than necessary.
"GUYS!" exclaimed Fluttershy which finally got the arguing ponies to stop. "He can switch houses every now and then to a different ponies so we all have a fair share. I mean, if Brandon doesn't mind."
"I don't mind and I think that is a simple but great idea"
"And we need to decide what order it should go. Do you want the girls to decide Brandon?" Twilight joked
"No thank you Princess Twilight" I chuckled "Okay so it goes, Fluttershy, AppleJack, ummm Pinkie Pie, then Rarity, Rainbow Dash and finally Princess Twilight. And I think I should stay four days in each ponies house so its long but not too long"
"Yeah, that seems like a great choice, also refer to me as just Twilight" said Twilight which I nodded to. I completely forgot that Cadence was in the room with us and she stood next to Twilight, and then looked at me and smiled, and I returned one too.
"So now that we have your stay all planned, now I think we can go and eat breakfast" said Twilight looking at me
"I would love that, I'm hungry that I could eat a..." I hesitated before saying what I wanted to say "pancake island?" I said trying to make it as cheesy as possible
"Ohhhh we are having pancakes for breakfast! Your a lucky ducky" said Pinkie still hopping about half a metre high from the ground. I smiled and looked at Twilight who gestured me to follow her and her friends. I got up from my chair and followed Twilight to the open doors where her friends stood there waiting. As I walked through the doors cool air hit my body like a hammer to a nail. I needed clothes before I froze to death, I would ask Twilight after breakfast, but for now I was hungry and wanted to get it over with. I looked ahead to see all the ponies were way ahead, and Flash was looking back at me waiting. I jogged towards them and followed them to get my first breakfast in this new world.
As walked back to my house down the wet and muddy grass in my local park returning from a hard day of sports. A unusual strong cold wind hit me so powerfully that I fell down on my backside. Quickly recovering from my fall hoping no one saw me, I saw a odd storm brewing up, looking like a mini hurricane. I never saw anything like it.
I looked down to see that I didn’t have any source of warm clothing, I only had a t-shirt, tracksuit bottoms and trainers. I forgotten my hoodie back at the sports centre and it was still quite a distance away from my house. So I decided to run back home before I was caught in the storm.
About half way through my running I was stopped in my tracks by a bright light in the corner of my eye under an overpass. It clearly stood out from the dark overpass and I never saw anything like it, so I investigated out of curiosity. As I walked towards it a bright flash and then a loud thunderclap caught my attention. I decided to be a bit bit faster cause the storm was getting worse.
As I jogged to the bright light more lightning and thunderclaps occurred, it was like the closer I get to the bright light the more worse the storm gets. Close to sprinting speed now I made it to the light. It was so bright that I had to squint to look at it, I was only a metre away from it and the storm was getting hectic, I lost my attention to the light and looked at the storm which was swirling slowly like a start of a tornado colossal tornado.
I felt something soft wrap around my ankle which caught my which made me jump, the thing that was wrapped around my leg tugged me so i tripped mid air and fell right on my back and hitting my head on the ground in the process knocking me out.
I woke up to loud beeping in my head which continued for several minutes but died down, and all I could hear was birds tweeting and the sound of a light breeze. I could feel the breeze against the hair on my legs and arms and blowing what seemed like my bare stomach giving me the impression I was naked. I tried to open my eyes and move my arms but I couldn’t move them at all, I was paralyzed! I was starting to panic remembering what happened to me in the middle of the storm, that thing that was wrapped around my ankle.
I later heard what sounded like trotting of horses some distance away that got louder and closer by the second. The noises finally reached me and stopped right next to my hands.
“What is it?” a feminine country accent voice asked to the left of my closed eyes, I was kinda disturbed by the question.
“I donno… it has very funny looking hooves, and muzzle, and body as well!” came another younger feminine voice in front of me. I was starting to panic even more thinking that I teleported to totally different universe. I tried to move again but my body didn't follow my urges, I tried to at least open my eyes but it didn't work either.
“It doesn't have any hair, well not much” came a masculine voice to my right. “I’t kinda looks like one of those things that Lyra keeps on talkin about” I was glad that they weren't talking about my genitals, I really was uncomfortable about my genitals if they looked right, if they were the right size, etc.
“Look…” said the feminine voice to my left “what is that cloth doing there?” It took to me a moment to realize that I was still wearing my boxers and I felt relieved about that, but I felt something tug on my boxers and I realized that they were trying to take them off.
I panicked and forced myself to move and in a rapid succession I opened my eyes and I quickly took in my surroundings. I was in the middle of a field with a beautiful blue sky full of apple trees and plowed fields and a huge barn in the distance. The grass was a beautiful green, way more better than the grass where I live. The trees had a clean brown colour for the bark and a light green for the leaves, the apples on the trees had a beautiful blood red colour that made them look delicious.The smell of cut grass and apple pie wafted through the air making my stomach rumble.
I then turned my attention to the three creatures ahead of me, ahead of me stood three horse looking things huddled together looking at me me with scared human like expressions. One of them was a muscular red one, a orange one with a cowboy hat on, and a small yellow one with a bow in it’s mane. I stared at their human like features which I could tell that they were scared by their facial expressions.
The red muscular horse parted from the huddle and walked slowly towards me with a worried but confident face. I didn't know what emotions feel, scared because I was in a completely different world with talking horses, or calm because at least they weren't aliens or monsters that tried to eat me.
“Careful Mac!” exclaimed the small yellow pony. The stallion called ‘Mac’ slowly walked towards me with a worried face now with no confidence, he seemed to be more scared of me than I of him.
“If you can hear me, don’t be scared, we won’t hurt you” he spoke with a calm low voice. I slowly got up on my feet feeling a bit woozy, using the object behind me for support so I didn't fall down. He stopped walking towards me and lost his face of worry and gave me a face of fear. When I stood up straight still using the object behind me so I didn't fall down, I was about a foot taller than the stallion and I was only 5.7 foot.
I slowly walked towards the stallion and the closer I got the more frightened he looked, the two ponies behind him were terrified, especially the little one.
“Please don’t hurt us” squeaked the small yellow pony, realizing I was scaring them I stopped walking and kneeled down in front of the red stallion who was sweating in fear. I opened my mouth to say the first thing I thought.
“Don’t be scared” I said awkwardly at the red stallion who lost a bit of his fear but still looked like he saw a ghost. “ My name is Brandon” I put my hand out for a handshake which the red stallion took.
“M-my name is Big Mac” he said in a half whisper.
“Look, I know you may be scared of me but there is nothing you should be scared of, I am not going to hurt you” I said this in an awkward way as well, which kinda made Big Mac giggle. I smiled at him which he returned. “Where am I anyways?”
“You don’t know where ya are? How can somepony wake up and not know where they're at?” said the orange mare.
“I… just don’t” I said while I felt a shiver down my spine, I forgotten I didn't have any source of clothing accept my boxers and it was freezing. “ey… uh do you have any clothes that I can use cause…” I shivered before continuing “I am pretty cold”
“I can tell” Big Mac mentioned
“Clothes? Like a suit? Y’all going to a dance or somethin’? Cause whoo-wee my friend is the best at makin fancy clothes!” shouted in a cheerful manner completely dispensing all her fright.
“I donno just… something to keep me warm”
“Well, y’all follow me to Rarity’s boutique, we’ll take the long route so we don’t surprise any of the ‘residence’”
“Yeeeahh… what’s your name?” I asked
“Oh I’m AppleJack and this little filly here is AppleBloom!” AppleJack pointed at the yellow pony who still seemed shook be me.
“Nice meeting ya AppleJack and AppleBloom” I said trying my best impression of a cowboy, which AppleJack and Big Mac giggled at.
“Nice meeting you too… uuuhh”
“Brandon”
“uh yeah… Brandon” Applejack turned her rear to me and patted her back to signal to sit on it, I thought she meant it to me but then Applebloom hopped on Applejack’s back and layed down on it. “Shall we?” I didn't know why I wasn't terrified of the talking horses, but I just wasn't scared of them at all so I nodded to Applejack and we started walking to the pony named Rarity.
