Introduction

Adam's apartment

2 days before heist

BEEP BEEP BEEP

"Fuckin' alarm..." Adam mutters disdainfully at the ear raping object that is his mechanically waking mother. After getting up and putting on a black t-shirt Adam finds himself pissing into the toilet bowl, after flushing he washes his hands and heads for the living room which doubles as a kitchen like some sort of living room with kitchen [dont make fun of me] and makes himself a cup of coffee to start his day.

3 hours later 2:00pm

Adam re-enters his apartment only to find a note that says to go to the local tailor down the street from him. Walking back out he realizes that he left his keys on the table beside the doorway and mentally curses himself and will do something about it later.

Half way to the tailor Adam runs into one of his crew mates, "watch where you're going assho- Adam, where ya heading?" Gabriel asks "just to the tailor to get fitted for a suit, I think Randy already paid for and before I head off do you know if Randy wants to have another meeting?" Adam finishes "umm I think we might have one midday tomorrow for a quick briefing before the tour but other than that I'm not sure." Gabriel answers while making sure he doesn't give out the heist in public.

2 hours after getting measurements 4:00pm

"Don't be late and for fucks sake don't try to do something out of a movie we'll meet at the usual place and recheck everything." "He hung up, that bastard, fuck it I will talk to him about our pay at the meeting." Adam says with a bit of annoyance in his voice.

"I'll go to sleep now and wake up early tomorrow for prep *yawn* and maybe a jog before it all." He says while looking at his watch which read 6:49 pm.

While waking Adam hears knocking at his door and looks at the clock which read 4:37 am so being the man that was just woken by something other than his 'heavenly' alarm clock, he zombie shuffles his way to the door and opens it only to find Randy and the rest of the crew which he hadn't met yet and so gives a slight nod and let's them in, "Sorry for this but we're gonna have to rush it because another crew plans on taking Lake View also, so Gabriel knew you were the early type and suggested we stop by, now let's get started." Randy finishes and starts putting up blue prints and taping pictures to the wall of the living kitchen room.

3 hours later 10:00 am

After carefully going over the plans twice Randy finally gets everyone acquainted, first off was Daniel which would be on crowd control, second was Eric who would be grabbing cash, third was Gabriel who is a driver, fourth was Mason who was also on crowd control but was also the gunman in case we had to shoot our selfs out the bank I was also a gunman and Randy was too grabbing cash.

"It's been 2 hours why don't we go now?" Says Mason,"because if we go in with less civilians than it would be so much easier because we won't have so many people to control." Randy answers quickly "we leave in half an hour." Randy letting his comment fly off in thin air.

25 minutes before heist 10:35 am

"Okay, when we get there ,G, will back up the van through the front doors and the rest of us exit into the bank, D and M will immediately control the employees and civilians, while me and E will make our way to the vault, that leaves A and G to fend off the cops so be precise, and don't kill them for Christ sake we don't need blood on our hands and let's be quick about it." Randy finishes the explanation while Gabriel pulls up to the front doors.

"3....2....1....GO!" Randy exclaims to which Gabriel immediately drives the back of the van into the doors. As the van doors swing open Daniel and Mason jump out while Mason takes the 3 people in the lobby and Daniel gets the other 2 behind the counter, as they were doing that Randy and Eric work on the vault to which I stopped watching them and went to my job of watching to only be bored of the almost non-existent police force that should've been here by now," Hey! G, it's been 8 minutes the cops should be here by now!" I put out, " maybe they're busy doing other cop stuff." He responds with a small smile forming on his lips.

As the vault opened there was still no sign of police , no sirens, lights, not even any cars on the streets. I began to feel really weird about this, it's been 27 minutes and still no cops the silent alarm probably ended a few minutes ago but maybe I'm just freaking out." We done yet?!" Mason says pushing his voice into the vault only to find Randy and Eric still packing money until they both zip up the bags to move to the van.

As everyone piles into the van I ask Randy if it was weird how there was no cops when he only responded with " must have been a stroke of luck!" PFFT I thought I'm starting think that this is a bust until a black SUV with flashing lights slammed into the side of the van. Hearing the crumpling of metal and scraping of the pavement, glass shattering all around, everything was black for a time until I opened my eyes and finding Mason on top of me with a metal rod which I can only assume was the fender of the SUV sticking from his right side poking out his left in a bloody mess while also drenching me in the process. Pushing him off I slowly sit up to see if anyone else survived only to find no one else but Masons corpse "they must have thought I was dead, did they even check my pulse?" I asked myself  until my hearing started coming back with the sounds of sirens.

Pushing open the door I'm greeted with many guns so instead of being an incredible idiot I slowly get on my stomach and putting my hands behind my head, while being put under arrest I noticed a bloodied Eric speaking and laughing with the police while everyone else was being shoved into a big metal truck for transport. With a quick hit to back of the head with the butt of an m-16 I was out cold again.

After waking up from a large bump I'm greeted this time by my ex crew mates, "goodmorning sunshine I hope you had a good nap while Eric stabbed us in the back." Daniel says with a bit of venom in his voice around the end of the sentence. "I knew something was up when no cops showed up. And to only think you thought it was just a bit of luck." I say to Randy to which he replies "well it's wasnt confirmed luck atleast."

prison hallway

-and this is where you will be staying for the remainder of your life Mr.Ross, we hope you have a pleasant stay in swamp view prison." The gaurd says as if this was a five star hotel. well, it ain't no closet apartment so it will have to do. Adam thinks as he is presented his cell.

Prison Cell

Good morning cement ceiling, Adam says getting up from the thin bed to watch steadiness of the guards. "Good morning officer Book" he says to the guard that uses words too big for the prisoners vocabulary and so 'officer Book' was invented. Officer Book didn't really like being called the name but goes with it anyway. "It's 8:30 am please wait till you get courtyard time to play little games with people." Officer Book says to Adam, "Wow no big words this time, Officer Book, you must be tired." he says to the baggy eyed officer.

prison cell 10:30 am

God it's boring here, maybe something cool will happen sometime soon. Adam thought to himself, laying on the bed staring at the ceiling only to immediately look to the left of the cell to see nothing, pretty sure I just saw a 'purple' spark, but what could have caused it? he asks himself only to get no answer.

Thursday 2 weeks after imprisonment

Waking up to the clanging of an Officers baton on the metal bars, you stare at him thinking whether to grab his shirt and pound his head against said bars or ask him 'what's goin' on?', choosing the latter you proceed with the question to get nothing but new clothes instead of the dull grey jumpsuit.

After putting on the new outfit you realise that they gave you and everyone else in your block a set of jeans black wife-beater and light grey t-shirt. it's weird but its better than jumpsuits. thinking to himself, knowing no one else can hear him. After some push ups Adam starts to see the purple spark again, "Officer Books, get here quick!" Adam yells backing into the wall while still looking at the now glowing orb.

I hope I'm dreaming because this is getting weird. maybe if I touch it it will go away, slowly making his way to the orb a distinct voice orders you to stop and while Officer Books struggles with the keys the orb starts pulling in anything around it. Officer Books loses grip of the keys and they get sucked into the wormhole, you manage to hole onto the prison bars, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?!" you yell to the Officer currently having his faced squished against the bars. You start to realise your losing your grip on the bars and horizontally fall toward the orb suddenly losing consciousness shortly after entering it.

Unknown time and location

You are slowly awakening to the feeling of sun and breeze on your face and forearms, quickly opening your eyes you are blinded by light and the brightness of..well..EVERYTHING. After your eyes adjust you stand up and notice you're in a forest freedom?..."FREEDOM!"you exclaim to yourself, then covering your mouth you crouch and listen for any dogs or yelling guards...but nothing. Just nothing but birds wind and trees, you stand back up to have a better look around to notice what looked like a clearing or field a hundred or maybe less meters through some trees.

Entering the field you notice a massive mountain which almost magically held up a castle and city, looking to the left you see a small town not very far from you, so you begin walking and start to hope no one put up wanted posters in the town. You arrive at the edge of town to see all the houses are built oddly, as if it was the medieval times or some shit like that. You begin to walk into the odd town and notice that nobody seems to be around at all, "must be calling the cops." you say to yourself thinking that the people might have spotted him a mile away and reported it then hide until authorities arrived, but nothing happened. "HELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" you call out and before you take another step you are looking at the sky with the wind knocked out of you. Coughing and trying to get back on your feet you hear "Stand down and leave, CREATURE!" a demanding voice says with so much venom it can kill a sarcastic teenager from tumblr. "I'm sorry *cough* but i have no *cough* clue what you're talking *cough cough* about." you barely get out. "What are you?" the person says. You look up to the feminine voice only to find a purple human like being with blunt legs and an odd head but it's fully clothed.

"Hello." you say weakly, "I'm kinda lost and just recently out of breath, you mind helping me out, whatever you are." you state (sort of), "well, you're in Ponyville, where are you from?" she asks, Jesus Christ, I've gone crazy. "and where is Ponyville on the earth?" you ask, "I'm sorry but the planet we are on is called 'Equis' and I have never heard of a planet called 'Earth'?"she says stating I am no longer on gods forsaken planet. "Fuck." was the only word you could get out before you are on the ground again.

Opening your eyes to the sight of books and wood, you sit up and see the Humanoid sitting next to you scribbling on some paper. "Good, you're awake now I can ask you some questions, so what is your name?", "Adam" "Race?" "Human" "date of birth?" "may 8 199- why are you asking me this?" you interrupt yourself, "so I can know more about you, I love studying so that is what I am doing!" "well can I at least know what you are?" you ask, "well that's easy, I'm a Pony and in our world the ponies consist of three main races, the Earth ponies which are strong for farming and more hard work, the Unicorns which have horns, Unicorns can use magic to manipulate the things around them like levitation, teleportation, and invisibility, to name a few but there is so much more to magic but i cant get sidetracked so the last race is the the pegasi, the pegasi are ponies with wings and can fly, control the weather and well...fly." she finishes, "and what about you, you have both wings and horn so what does that make you?" you ask, "oh! well I'm an Alicorn and there is three other Alicorns in Equestria, Princess Celestia, she is the main ruler of Equestria and controller of the sun, Princess Luna, Co-ruler of Equestria and controller of the moon and stars, and Princess Cadance, the princess of love. And for me I'm Princess Twilight Spawkle, the Princess of Magic and one of the other five holders of the Elements of Harmony." She says proudly. " Okay, thats cool and all but do you know any way i can meet this Celestio?" you ask while simultaneously butchering The Princess' name.

"Well I can teleport us tomorrow during the day because she is most likely asleep, okay?" she says asking for confirmation. "Sure thing, see you tomorrow," you say while heading to the door. "where are you going?" she asks while getting in between you and the door," well i was thinking of getting cozy in an allyway somewhere and show up here when i wake up." you say, only to get dragged up some stairs into a spare bedroom, "you can stay here instead of an alleyway, that way we can leave right when you get up."she says, "goodnight Adam." she says walking away.well i might as well rest now. you think to yourself before falling asleep on the bed.

Friday 12:30

you begin to wake and sit up to see a note on the door that says 'just come downstairs when you wake up' so listening to the note you head down stairs to find Twilight packing a bag and checking a list. "good morning." you say tiredly, "it's 12:32, you must have been tired haha." she says "well we leaving soon or what?" you ask, she stands up to look at you and nods, and within a second a blinding flash you regain vision to see a pair of giant doors and spearheads pointing directly at your face, "easy boys, he's with me." Twilight says to the 2 guards, they retract the spears and open the doors to let us in and the first thing I notice is the pure white woman with an ethereal mane blowing in an almost non-existent wind and the sight alone is pretty unreal while she sits unmoving in her throne at the end of a long hallway with a single red carpet and plenty of windows with murals on them. She begins to stand and say "is this the being in your reports, Twilight?" "Yes it is and Adam here is male." Twilight answers, "hi." you say meekly making her smile, "I am Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria and the sun, who are you?" she finishes with a question.

"I am Adam Ross, robber of banks and DESTROYER OF PRETZELS! at your service."you idiot, why would you say you robbed banks because i thought it would be funny. "hmm humorous but i will have to laugh at that later when I'm not so busy with political matters." she says basically saving your ass from more prison, "but I must ask how did you get here, I have never in my lifetime seen your kind before." Celestia says, "well first off, I'm a human and second, will you promise you wont be angry when i tell you?" she nods, " okay well i wasnt lying about the bank robbing thing, I pulled off many heists before i was put in prison two weeks ago after a member of our crew turned out to be an undercover agent but it all happened before i appeared in a forest yesterday, i was in my cell when basically this purple spark appeared in the middle of the cell and it started getting bigger until it formed into an orb and sucked anything in including me and an officers cell keys and i basically ended up here." when i look up i notice she glaring at Twilight, "I didn't give you authorization to use a spell like that." Celestia says to her.

"Where is the book?"she asks Twilight, "well after i performed the spell it burned up and i thought i got the spell wrong but...tada.. Adam's here.." Twilight says sheepishly, " so what does that mean?" you ask, "it means that without no main spell that we cant properly find the reversal spell to send you back, I'm sorry but it seems you are staying here from now on." Celestia says.
