Chapter 4: Pie in the Twilight

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"I'm finally here." I whispered to myself as I walked down one of the main streets of ponyville.

The street was lined with shops from a sofa and quills store to a apple stand, and bustling with ponies as I would assume the time is around that of lunch.

"Hi!!" A voice shouted in my general direction, the voice was high in pitch and sounded excited.

"Whaa.....who...huh?" I said.

"Hi, my name is pinkie pie and you're new here because I have never seen you here what is your name!?" Pinkie pie said.

"My name is Thunderdash." I said.

"Oooooo are you related to rainbow dash!?" She said.

"No, not that I know of." I said.

"Oh I almost forgot." She said.

She pulled out a cart from nowhere and began to sing a welcome song. When she finished the cart returned to whatever place it had come from.

"So where are you from." She asked.

"From cloudsdale." I said.

Of course this was lie but letting a pony like Pinkie Pie know about where I was really from may not be a good idea at this time.

"So whatcha up to in ponyville Thunderdash?" Pinkie said.

"I was looking for a place to stay, but I have heard of a library here with many books on the history of equestria and being interested in history I have come to read some of these books if it is ok with the princess?" I said.

"Twilight she, would be delighted to show you the books." She said.

"Are you sure its kind of short notice?" I said.

"She'll be fine come on" she said.

I followed her through the crowded streets, I almost lost sight of her twice but still managed to keep up with her.

We arrived shortly after and pinkie knocked on the door.

"Twilight." Pinkie called after knocking on the door.

"Pinkie what is it." Twilight said, she sounded slightly annoyed but she was probably in the middle of a book.

"Somebody wants to see you." Pinkie said.

"Who." Twilight said as she neared the door to open it.

"His name is Thunder Dash he came from cloudsdale to read some of your books." Pinkie said as Twilight opened the door. She opened the door fully before looking up and seeing me for the first time.

" Good afternoon my name is Twilight Sparkle, and you must be Thunder Dash?" Twilight said.

"Yes, that is me." I said.

She moved back from the door and let pinkie and I enter the library.

It was exactly as I had pictured it would be it, the walls were lined with books and the smell of paper and that distinct smell of the glue used in old books filled the air but was only a weak smell and was not to over powering.

"So what particular part of history were you interested in?" Twilight asked.

"I am interested in the era before the banishment of Nightmare Moon." I said.

"Ok, well I shall see what books I have on that particular subject." Twilight said after she went off to find this book I turned to face Pinkie.

"Pinkie Pie, thank you for showing me the way to the library." I said.

"Oh it was nothing, a new pony to Ponyville always needs directions at one time or another." She said, she began to head for the door but turned around and said one last thing,"Oh I almost forgot, you have to stop by sugarcube corner wile your here, they have the best cupcakes in all of equestria, well maybe not all of equestria because there are so many places there could be another bakery that has even better cupcakes, but you can never have two many good cupcake places." She said.

"I will be sure to go there tomorrow." I said.

"Oki doki loki see you then."she said.

"Bye Thunder." She said as she walked out the door.

"See ya Pinkie Pie." I said.

By the time I turned back to Twilight she had at least 20 books stacked up on the subject.

"Twilight." I said.

She stopped going through the books and turned to face me.

" what is it?" She asked.

"I didn't come here to learn about history, at least at this moment." I said.

"What?" She said.

I could tell that she was slightly annoyed as her voice raised slightly.

"I came to talk to you actually." I said

"Why?" She asked.

"Because there are somthings about me that, well." I said.

"Well, what?" She said curious as to what I was about to say.

"I lied about." I said.

"Like what?" She said.

She was more intrigued and curious then scared and defensive.

"Well for starters im not actually from cloudsdale." I said.

"Ok well were are you from then?" She asked.

"Thats a bit more confusing to explain." I said.

"Try me." She said.

"May I use the chalkboard?" I asked.

"Yes, you may." She said.

I walked over and tried to pick up the chalk, but for one reason or another it felt easy to pick up and move the chalk.

"Im waiting?" She said getting a little annoyed at my astonishment of picking up the chalk.

"Ah, well let me begin." I said drawing a circle on the left side of the board.

"Ok so pretend this is your world." I said.

"Ok." She said gaining back some of her original interest.

"Now this line that I have drawn represents a void and here." I drew a circle on the right side of the line.

"This represents my world earth, were I am from." I said.

"Hold on, what exactly is this void that is represented by this line." She said motioning with a hoof at the line.

"Im not exactly sure, all I can assume is that it is an empty expanse of temporal and spacial energies in one big jumbled up mess." I said.

"And secondly, your not even from equestria?!" She said.

"Yes, yes that would be correct." I said.

"Who, or what are you then?" She asked.

"I am human." I said.

"Ok, the name doesn't ring a bell I need more of a description." She said.

"Bipedal, ape, we have hands and fingers, no wings, non colored skin well not brightly colored that is." I said.

"Ok it sounds familiar except for the non brightly colored skin part." She said.

I assumed she was talking about her trip through the mirror.

"Ok, ya well um theres one more thing that may sound kind of creepy but I assure you is not." I said.

"What is it." She said.

"Well theres kind of a show based off of you and a toy line and I know about the excursion through the mirror were spike got turned into a dog and ya all that fun stuff." I said.

At that moment I could swear that if twilights jaw wasn't hinged it would be hitting the floor right now.

"Ok, well thats interesting, how, how much do you know." She finally said after what felt like an hour of silence.

" Well, I know that Celestia and Luna are the princesses who live in canterlot and raise and lower the sun and moon, I also know that you are friends with Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Apple Jack, and Fluttershy, and that together you make up the elements of harmony, and that about sums up the whole thing give or take a few Parts." I said.

She was just starring but with a look of astonishment rather then that look of 'can I get a weapon to hit this guy over the head fast enough because he's probably gonna rape me'.

"Thats amassing, and slightly creepy but hay different universe different perspective." She said.

"Ya." I said.

"So why did you come here then of all places." She asked.

"Well to make a long story short, I went through a portal ended up here and woke up in the hospital, got discharged and came to ponyville, and now I'm here." I said.

"Ya but why exactly here, In my library?" She asked.

"Two reasons one I beleve that bringing this to your attention would be a better way to bring it to Celestia's attention." I said.

"I see and what about the second." She said.

"Well, you see I have no money and, well I need a place to stay so ya." I said.

"I guess you can stay in the extra room down stairs." She said.

"Thank you, Princess." I said bowing to her.

"That really isn't necessary, just call me Twilight." She said.

"Ok." I said.

"By the way."

"What?" She said.

"Can I still read those books?" I asked.

"Of course." She said.

She turned and called up stairs.

"Spike."

A few seconds later the purple dragon appeared and awaited any further instructions.

"Take a letter."

-------------/--/-------------/--/---------

"Dear, Princess Celestia

Someone has requested an audience with you, his name is Thunder Dash and he has told me he is from a race called humans and that they reside on a planet known as earth. He wishes to speak with you about this matter, my guess is to either get permission to stay or to find a way home.

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle." Celestia read to herself as she sipped her tea from her glass she had levitated over to her from the table, she currently resided in her room lying in the middle of a rug in front of the glowing fireplace.

"I will put her in for tomorrow morning, it will be a good way to start the day, something different for a change." Celestia said to herself.

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in." She said.

The door opened and a pony in a white lab coat entered.

"Good evening princess, sorry to disturb you but there is something that must be brought to your attention." The pony in the lab coat said as he walk towards Celestia.

"What is it?" She asked.

The pony levitated a file out of one of the pockets in his lab coat.

"This." He said setting the down in front of Celestia who proceeded to flip it open with her hoof.

"This is a gene archive file what's so special about it?" Celestia asked.

"I am just the messenger, but whatever it is it must be important." He said.

"I shall read it over, is that all?" Celestia asked.

"Yes your majesty." He replied.

"You may go." She said.

"Thank you." He said before turning around and leaving through the door closing it behind him.

"Why would, they want me to look it over." Celestia said to herself as she opened the folder to revue its contents, she turned to the first page and read through the contents, she got to the end and turned the page. The second page contained the family tree and the relatives, she read it over a few times to make sure that what she was reading was actually on the paper. She closed the folder and stood up.

"I must meet with Luna to discuss this at once." She said lifting the file up with her magic and walking out her door and off in the direction of Luna's tower.


"How about this color, princess?" A pony said holding up a piece of wood with her magic.

"I don't know, i can't decide, what is most popular?" Luna asked.

"Well the oak is the one most ponies go for." The pony said holding up the piece of oak wood.

"Then I shall chose the oak." Luna said.

"Ok it should be delivered within a week." The pony said.

"Excellent." Luna said.

"Will that be all princess?" The pony asked packing away the samples.

"Yes, thank you for your services." Luna said.

"You are welcome your majesty." The pony said.

There was a knock at luna's door.

"Enter." She said.

The doors opened and Celestia came in.

"Good evening your majesty." The pony said bowing to Celestia after she entered.

"Likewise, Luna I must speak with you." She said.

The carpenter packed up her things and went out the door after Celestia finished her sentence.

"I see you are getting a new desk sis." Celestia said.

"Ya the old one is well used and breaking down I'm afraid, but I know that is not why you came to talk to me." She said.

"No, you're right it isn't." Celestia said.

She levitated the folder out from under her wing where she had his it.

"I was wondering why one of your wings looked a bit bigger than the other." Luna said.

Celestia placed the folder on the desk in front of them.

"Sister why do you have a file from the gene archives?" Luna asked.

"One of the doctors dropped it off and said that it was something that i should look over." Celestia said.

"So do you know why?" Luna asked.

"I think I have a pretty good Idea." Celestia said.

She opened the folder and began to read through the first page.

"So this pony, just had there blood added to the archive today?" Luna said.

"Yes." Celestia said.

"But thats not possible, at birth a sample of the ponies blood is taken and added to these genetic archives." Luna said.

"Whats even more strange is, well you'll see." Celestia said.

She turned the page and got a strange look of, huuh mixed with a bit of wah and a bit if this wasn't expected.

"So, he's related to," luna said.

"Yes." Celestia said.

"And he's." Luna said.

"Yes." Celestia said.

"But how." Luna said.

"I have no idea, but we will be meeting with him tomorrow." Celestia said closing the file.

"Just from the file I'm interested in meeting him." Luna said.

"So am I Luna," Celestia said, "So am I."
