I woke up as Lyra Heartstrings. I managed to become a pony, but I don't know how. I somehow unwillingly also managed to get in the way of Equestria's fate.

I used to be a human, and now I'm a pony. I'm now Lyra Heartstrings. All I wanted is to be a pony, and my wish came true.. sort of. I have to unwillingly save Equestria. Well, I'm left with no choice, so I guess Equestria's fate lies in my hooves.

I'm Lyra Heartstrings

I woke up, and knew something was wrong. I felt my hands balled up. I saw a mint colored snout at the bottom of my vision, along with cyan hair with a white streak at the top of my vision. Okay, I may've ran into a strange man on the street. He stopped me when I was walking down the sidewalk. I didn't remember what he said, except for something like "you will be of great help to another world."

I didn't know what he meant, but then again, I was too eager to get home to continue my game I was developing. Let me explain about my past. I was 20 years old. I wasn't much of a guy who had girls crawling all over him. I lived alone. My best friend took on a job, going around the world as a pilot, and my second best became a mechanic. I had brown eyes, and my hair was brown. I was a huge brony. You would not believe the amount of merchandise I had around my house.

I looked around the room. I'm now a pony, and it was obvious to me I had taken the body of Lyra Heartstrings. I could tell by my hair, my coat colour, and all the books on humans. The pictures and drawings of humans hanged near a desk were kind of disturbing me.

There was what I think is a drawing that looks exactly like the one showing a human, identical to what I think is that Albert Einstein made, facing up from the bookshelf. I knew that getting off the bed would prove to be a challenge, but I was willing to do it. I wasn't scared at all of this sudden change. I was actually very happy. It gave me a longer life span, a new world to explore, new things to do, and it was my dream come true, so I'll just go with it, and pretend to be Lyra.

I slid off the bed, coming onto all fours. I was half expecting Bon Bon to be sleeping beside me, but she wasn't. It was hard to support myself at first, but soon I stood up straight. I took my first step forward. I put my right hoof forward, then I put my far left hoof forward. I then put my left hoof further forward, and then I did the same with my far right hoof.

I did it. My first step in Equestria. I shivered with excitement. Thank god Bon Bon wasn't here to see a smiling, almost crying Lyra, shaking with excitement in the room, or atleast, what appears to be Lyra. I continued to take my second, then third step, and I then fell. I pulled myself up, and then steadily and slowly walked through the small, straight hallway.

There wasn't any door, but a simple hallway. I liked that. The hallway led me to the kitchen. I lifted my head up, and saw Bon Bon smiling. I jumped backwards, caught off guard.

"Good morning Lyra! Did you sleep well?"

"Uh... yep." I faked a smile. Bon Bon probably wasn't aware of what happened in the room.

"Breakfast's ready." She walked towards the table and ate the pancakes on her plate. She bit onto the handle of a bottle of syrup on the table and poured some over her pancakes, then mine. I didn't know they had syrup here. I made my way to what seemed to be my chair, and sat down. There were 3 small pancakes on my plate, covered with syrup. I didn't know what to use to eat it.

I haven't used magic to lift anything up, so I might as well give it a shot. I concentrated hard on the pancake, using willpower or whatever it's called. I think it's the power of your willing or something, if that makes any sense. I was pretty sure Bon Bon could see me squinting at the pancakes, my blood vessels around my face looking like they're about to pop.

"Uh.. Lyra.. are you okay?" Bon Bon tilted her head.

"Mhm? Yeah, just.. trying to wake up." As much as I would hate lying to her, I would have to in order not to screw everything up. After doing this for 3 more minutes (with Bon Bon staring oddly at me), I levitated the pancake up. It wasn't straight, it was sideways and shaking. I tried bringing it closer to my mouth. It didn't work, so I leaned my head forward and tried eating it.

I was about to get my first bite, when I fell off the chair. Bon Bon quickly rushed and helped me up. "Lyra, just tell me what's wrong."

"I already told you, I'm okay, it's nothing." I climbed back up onto the chair and, instead of using magic, I used my hooves to eat the pancakes. Sure, it will make my hooves sticky, but I could just wash them.. right? I finished, and my hooves weren't covered completely with syrup. I ate the pancakes with both whooves, but I could've just grabbed a pancake with just one hoof.. which I forgot. Bon Bon's a good cook, and probably a really good friend.

I went into the bathroom that was connected to our room and washed my hooves. I then decided to trash the drawings. As long as I'm here, there will be no creepy drawings of nude and non-nude humans in my room. Bon Bon came in and tilted her head again, since there aren't a lot of pony emotions or whatever. "Lyra... what are you doing?"

"Oh, just trashing the drawings."

"Why?"

"Because.. I don't like them?" Bon Bon looked at me suspiciously. "I'm just taking down some drawings, do you really have to think this is weird??"

"Lyra, you're deeply into humans, and now you're taking down drawings of them. I thought it was impossible to make you stop, but now, I guess I'm wrong."

"Heheh... yeah.. I guess I'm not all that interested in humans anymore." Bon Bon nuzzled me.

"Good to hear. Can I help you with that?"

"Be my guest." Good, I evaded suspicion on my first day. I don't ever want to be a human again, when I can just stay as Lyra. After we took down drawings and took papers off of the desk with more human things, I trashed them. The books on the bookshelf can stay.

"Now, we can spend time together."

"Okay!" Bon Bon smiled.

Bon-ding Time

Spending time with Bon Bon seemed okay. Besides, it's probably going to be what I mostly do, and Bon Bon agreed to it, so why not? Actually, the thing is.. "What are we going to do?" I asked, only for Bon Bon to not answer. She led me to Sugarcube Corner, and asked Mrs. Cake for two chocolate muffins.

We sat across from eachother at a table. "Since you're done with humans, what's going to be your new addiction?"

"Hey, it wasn't an addiction! I could've stopped whenever I wanted to!"

"Whatever you say." Bon Bon smiled. We finished our muffins, and then Bon Bon led me to a bench, I don't know where. I've seen fanart of her on a bench before with Lyra, but..

"Um... what are we doing?"

"Just sitting on the bench. Why didn't you trash your books, too?" Bon Bon asked as I got up on the bench. I wanted to try to sit like Lyra did. Bon Bon then gave me a look.

"Well, I didn't feel like it. It would be a waste of bits."

"Okay, but do you really still have to sit like that?"

"Fine." I sat normally.. well, I guess here it's normal. "Sooo... what else do you want to ask?"

"Why where you doing that 'waking up' thing at the table?"

"I was trying to wake up. Duh. Do you want to go home in a bit?"

"Sure." We looked at the clouds and stuff. Then a rainbow streak flew across the sky, clearing clouds. I knew that was Rainbow Dash. I was eager to meet the mane 6, but, I doubt that will happen... or, at least for a while.

We then walked home. When we arrived, I noticed a clock hanging from the wall in the kitchen. 3:45 PM? When did I wake up?? I walked back into our bedroom. Trying out 'my lyre' would be stupid.. but, then again, I wanted to try a lyre for quite a while when I was a human.

I don't know where the lyre- oh, it's right behind the bed. I used telekinesis at my best effort to pick it up. Perfect, but could I use my magic to stroke the strings, or dif Lyra use her hoof? I decided to try using magic. I stroked the far left string. It emitted a beautiful sound, like pretty much any instrument. I could see why Lyra was into this.

"Lyra, come and eat!" Bon Bon treats Lyra like Lyra is her daughter or her little sister or something. I walked to the table. I got the hang of walking. As for magic, I'm about at a beginners level. I sat on my chair. Bon Bon placed a plate with salad. Did I mention I HATE salad? Well.. I probably have different desires and tastes as a pony.

I don't know how I was to eat this. I looked at Bon Bon to see how she ate. Fork.. right. How could I be so stupid? I grabbed the fork that was right beside my plate, which I didn't see before, and began to eat. Yep, I was right. Different desires and different tastes. It wasn't bad at all. In fact, I loved it. I finished eating (first), and put my dish in the sink, along with my fork. I wanted to look around Ponyville.

"Is it okay if I just go out for a walk?" Bon Bon responded with a nod. I cautiously walked towards the door and went outside. I traveled around Ponyville. I found my way back to Sugarcube Corner, and also discovered some new places. I saw Twilight's Castle's towers peaking in the sky from far away. I decided to walk there.

I arrived there. I wish I could go inside and talk to the mane six, or atleast Twilight, but that probably won't happen. I made my way back home. After many wrong turns and dead ends, I realized I was lost. I panicked. "Oh no Oh no Oh no Bon Bon would miss Lyra, but I wasn't technically Lyra, but I also am at the sametimebutI'mtheclosestthingshehastoLyraandIwouldn'thaveahomeifIcan'tfindmine/Lyra'sandBonBon'shomeandBonBonwouldcryifsheknewLyrawasgoneorevenifIdidn'tcomehome!"

I think I was starting to hyperventilate. I took a few deep breaths, stopping myself from passing out. I quickly checked my surroundings to see if anypony saw me. No, it was becoming kind of late. The sun was setting, and I think I was starting crying. There would be no way to find home again.

I didn't realize when Bon Bon was hugging me. I didn't realize she had found me. Instead, I was asleep.

I woke up in bed. Still in Ponyville. I was in Lyra's.. well.. mine and Bon Bon's house. Wait, I was home! I galloped towards the kitchen to see hug Bon Bon. "Uhm.. Lyra, what's up?" Me and Bon Bon were hugging, and she was smiling.

"I thought I was lost."

"How so?"

"I.. um.... I was.. I don't know."

"Well you're here now." Bon Bon squeezed me a little harder.

"I wish that were true.." I mumbled under my breath.

"What?" Bon Bon heard, tilting her head in confusion.

"Nothing." I replied quickly. I narrowly avoided Bon Bon knowing something was up.

6 days later..

I was in the living room, reading a book, when Bon Bon came back inside the house. "Lyra!" I turned my head towards her.

"Hmm?"

"Have you heard? It's about Golden Harvest!" Bon Bon looked worried.

"What about her?" I asked.

"Ponies think she's crazy!"

"Why?"

"She was going around the marketplace saying that she's not a pony, and she was desperately seeking help."

"Well, I guess I could help.." Golden Harvest, aka Carrot Top, a pony I know. I met her, and I saw her on My Little Pony. "Where is she?" Bon Bon then led me towards her. Bon Bon said she was inside her house. I knocked on Carrot Top's door, and she answered it.

"What do you want?" Asked a snivelling Carrot Top.

"Uh.. I'm here to help." I replied, uncertain of whether or not I was fit to help.

More

"Where are you taking me?" Carrot Top asked.

"Nowhere at the moment, but I have a question."

"What?"

"What was your human name?"

"How do you know about humans..?"

"I'll tell you some other time, but for now, follow me." I led the two back to me and Bon Bon's house. I told Bon Bon to wait in the living room, and me and Carrot Top sat at the table, across from eachother.

"Uhm.. Jennifer.." Said Carrot Top.

"What?" I didn't get what she meant.

"Jennifer. My name is Jennifer."

"Okay Jennifer, tell me how you got here." I completely believed she was a human before.

"Uhm..okay.. me and my husband had our anniversary held today.. uh.. yesterday? W-What day is it... he bought me a gift.. it was in a small velvet box.. I opened it and I woke up here..."

"Okay.. I'll see if I can find out how to fix this.. until then, your name is Carrot Top and Golden Harvest. The house you woke up in is yours. Here's a tip,instead of saying everybody, you have to say everypony. Try not to swear and act too strange, okay?"

"O-okay.. but I have a question.."

"Hm?"

"How do you know about humans so well.. and how do you manage to believe me and not think I'm.. crazy..?" Her ears fell back. I then leaned in so I could whisper to her. I wasn't thinking when I did it. At the moment, all I wanted is for her to stay calm, and not think I was a psychiatrist or anything.

"Because I was one." Jennifer perked up when I said this.

"You were a human before!?" She said it so loud that it might've reached to Bon Bon.

"No, no! You must've misunderstood! I said I studied humans!" I then leaned in again. "The other pony in this room cannot know, capeesh? And that goes for everypony, okay?" I leaned back into my chair.

"O-okay.. thanks for the.. help?" She walked out the front door. I hoped Bon Bon didn't catch on yet.. but she might soon.

2 hours later..

Bon Bon brang me along to do some shopping. We were at the market. "So, did you believe her?" Bon Bon asked as she bought some milk.

"Yeah." We moved further along.

"Hm. What about when she said about you being a once human?" Bon Bon arrived at the empty carrot stand.

"Didn't you hear? I said she must've misunder-"

"Hey.. where's Carrot Top?"

"Jennifer. Oops, I forgot to mention she would need to run the stand. I'll be right back." I walked towards Jennifer's house. I knocked on the door. "Jennifer?"

"What do you want?" She didn't open the door.

"You need to run your stand at the Ponyville marketplace."

"I don't wanna!" She peeked through the door, that was now slightly open.

"You have to, whether you like it or not. Just please listen to me." The door opened completely. Jennifer hung her head.

"Fine, I don't really have anything to do anyways.. so what do I have to do?"

"Follow me." I went into her house and searched for those backpacks ponies have, and put filled one with carrots, then mounting it on her. I closed the door, and we walked to the marketplace.
We arrived at the carrot stand, and Bon Bon was waiting for my arrival.

"Took you long enough." I didn't answer Bon Bon.

"You sell carrots here okay?"

"Mmm..okay.." Jennifer was uncomfortable by the looks of it.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best to help you get back to Earth. But for now, you're a pony. Each carrot costs 2 bits, okay? Bits are the currency here."

"O-okay.." Jennifer settled down onto her chair behind the stand, and I used magic to place it down, on the ground. Me and Bon Bon continued shopping. We came back later to check on Jennifer.

"So, how are you doing?"

"G-good I guess.." Her head was hung down. I put my hoof under her chin and lifted up her head.

"Relax, it'll be okay. How's the business?" I put my hoof back down.

"Okay.. I.. I got 17 bits.. is that.. good?"

"It's a good start. Anyways, Bon Bon wants to buy some carrots." Bon Bon put some bits on the counter, receiving a few carrots, and putting them in her backpack. We then started to walk home, when we came across Dr. Hooves.. or Time Turner.. who seemed to be depressed.

I couldn't help myself, so I went to see what was wrong. "What's up?"

"Go away.."

"I only want to know what's wrong..?"

"Ponies." I knew that he must've been a once human too, after he said that. I couldn't believe there were more.

"So, you were a human once I take it?"

"How'd you know?"

"I'll tell you some other time, what matters now, is that I know that there's more.."

"Wait, I'm not the only one!?"

"Nope."

"Thank god.. is there a way back?"

"Back to Earth? As far as I know right now, nope. But if you want, we can talk about how you got here and about your past self.. I can help you feel better in this body.. permanent or not."

"All I want is to go back home..."

"I'll do my best to get you back home, but do you want to take up the offer or not?"

"Sure.. when?"

"You can come right now, if you'd like." Bon Bon dissaproved.

"Lyra.." Bon Bon was annoyed.

"C'mon, just give him a chance. How would you feel in another world where you knew no pony? Where you had an uncomfortable body that you never wanted?"

"Fine.." Bon Bon was still annoyed, but she couldn't say no, really. The doctor and Bon Bon followed me. "I thought we're going home?" Bon Bon tilted her head.

"We're visiting Jennifer again." We arrived back at the market. "Jennifer, I need to talk to you. It's important." Jennifer's ears fell back.

"Oh no.. what did I do wrong?"

"You're not in trouble, just come." She grabbed her backpack and put it back on. I just hoped that there wouldn't be any more once humans.

Help Wanted

All four of us arrived back at me and Bon Bon's house. I sat Dr. Hooves and Carrot Top on the chairs at the kitchen table, across from eachother. I sat on the left of Dr. Hooves.

"Okay, so what was your human name?" I turned my head to the Doctor.

"..Oh, me? William."

"He was a human, too?" Carrot Top lifted her head up.

"Yep." I replied. "I want you two to get to know each other. William, this pony here is Carrot Top.. or Golden Harvest. She was a once human, too. Her name was Jennifer."

"Oh.. uh.. hey there.. Jennifer..?"

"Uhm.. hi..." Carrot Top answered shyly.

"So... um.. I don't know your name.." Doctor looked at me, along with Carrot Top.

"Oh.. uh.. Lyra Heartstrings."

"Okay then, Lyra, now what?"

"Talk to eachother about Earth and stuff. About your past lives."

"O-okay.. uhm.. William.. uh.. I don't know what to say." Carrot Top looked at me.

"How about this, how old were you guys before becoming ponies?"

"23.." Answered Carrot Top.

"26" Answered Doctor.

"How do you get to Equestria, William?"

"Equestria.. so that's what this place is.." He mumbled to himself. "I was at my job, at an office, and then I decided to take a drink. I opened up my water bottle and started to drink, when I suddenly woke up here. What about Jennifer?"

"Oh, she got here on her anniversary. Apparently she opened her husband's gift for her and she woke up as a pony." I explained quickly.

"Hmph. How does any of this help with the fact that I'm an equine?"

"Well.. until this is fixed.. which I hope will.. you guys can be friends, since you were humans before, you have something in common."

"I guess so." Said Doctor.

"Now, William, your pony name is Dr. Hooves and Time Turner, okay? Jennifer here will tell you some tips about Ponyville, okay Jennifer?"

"O-okay.."

"Unless she doesn't want to.." I sighed. "Now you two, go back to your homes, or explore Ponyville, okay? If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask." They walked out. I just realized Bon Bon finished putting the groceries to their rightful places. "Oh.. sorry about the.. you know.. company and all.." Bon Bon came and hugged me.

"Nah, it's okay. I'm just glad we're alone now." We read a book together, and we baked muffins.. which Bon Bon helped me do.

1 day later..

There was a knocking on the door. Bon Bon woke up to answer it. "Oh.. uhm.. oh!" Bon Bon kneeled down. "What brings you here Princess Celestia?"

"Greetings, Bon Bon. I need to speak with Lyra."

"I -I'll go get her.. Lyra!!" Bon Bon was shaking my head gently.

"What..?"

"The Princess is here, she wants to speak to you!" Oh no, what could it be? It HAS to be important in order for Princess Celestia to make this trip. I galloped to the door, almost galloping into the Princess.

"Oops!" I quickly kneeled down. "What do you need Princess Celestia?"

"It's about humans." I got back up.

"What about em?"

"I came to you since you know the most about them. Ponies throughout Equestria are going crazy, believing they aren't ponies. I need your help."

"W-why mine!?" I stammered.

"You're the only pony that has a chance to figure out how this happened, and how to fix it. Me and my sister will do our best, but that will not stop humans possessing ponies."

"I-I'll do my best, Princess Celestia."

"Good. I need you to stop them from causing attention. It is spreading quick. Princess Twilight Sparkle also is avaliable for help, but it is your duty to make sure that the world doesn't fall into havoc. I'll notify the royal guards to let you pass whenever you need to. Farewell, Lyra."

"Bye Princess!" I tried to keep a calm face. I slammed the door shut. I panicked. All I wanted is to be a pony, not have to be the pony responsible for Equestria's fate.

"So, what was that about?" Bon Bon tilted her head, all tidied up.

"She needs my help! Everyponies fate rests in my hooves!" Bon Bon gasped.

"Oh no.. don't tell me there's more of them!!"

"I'm afraid so."

"You need some rest, you deserve it. After all, my little Lyra is going to be a hero."

"Yeah.. if I don't screw things up." I started to walk towards the bathroom, when Bon Bon stopped me.

"You won't. Here, I'll brush your coat and mane for you. Lay on my lap on the couch." I obediently went and did what she told me.

"I-I don't think I'm up for this kind of task.."

"Hey, you have the Princesses help. You should go talk to Twilight, she might be able to provide some sort of use."

"You're right. And I need to fix this fast, or Equestria's doomed. I can't think about who will be lost next." Bon Bon finished brushing me. The whole day I spent preparing.

5:00 PM

Somepony was knocking on the door again. I opened the door to see William.. er.. Dr. Hooves.
"Oh, hey William. What's up?"

"Um.. Lyra.."

"Yes?"

"Do you know a grey pegasus with a blonde mane?"

"Derry hooves, yeah. I think it's better to call her Ditzy.. I don't really remember what others used to call her" I leaned closer to him. "My Little Pony fans say she's in love with Dr. Hooves. My Little Pony is a TV show on Earth."

"How would you know about this..?"

"Doesn't matter. Is there anything else you need?" He sighed.

"No, not really."

"Okay, bye." I closed the door on him. I needed to pay a trip to Twilight. I wonder if she knows anything about this body swapping thing.

Rush Hour.. er.. Day?

5:30

I arrived at the castle doors, not knowing how to enter. I lamely knocked. Pinkie-Pie answered, slightly opening the door and peeking through it."WhooooOoooooooose there??"

"Um.. I need to speak with Twilight."

"What's the super duper secret password?" Password? There was a PASSWORD!?

"Uhhhhhh..." I tilted my head in confusion.

"Correct!" I fell down on my side, since I had a hoof up on the door for support. Yep that figures, it's one of those random things Pinkie does. "Followwww meee!" Pinkie bounced up and down, and I just walked. Damn, the castle is HUGE. I walked into Pinkie without realizing. "Here we are! TWIIIILLLIIIIIGGGGHHTTT!" Pinkie headbutted the door continously.

"What!?" Answered Twilight from beyond the wooden door.

"Somepony's here to see youuu!" Twilight annoyingly answered the door.

"Thank you Pinkie.. oh, hey Lyra!"

"Uhm.. do you know what I'm doing here?"

"Oh, don't tell me Princess Celestia picked you to-"

"Yep. What's wrong with that?

"Nothing. What do you need?"

"I need your help."

"All I have about humans has been taken already."

"By wh- oh, me. Heheh." I smiled sheepishly. I should've guessed Lyra would do such a thing. "But that's not what I'm after. Do you know what may've caused humans to become ponies?"

"If I did, don't you think it would've been fixed by now!?"

"Well.."

"Ugh. I got a few leads. One could be our two universes colliding, two could be somepony making this happen just for his or her pleasure, and three could be a hole in their planet leading to a hole in our planet, which is highly unlikely, and would make absolutely no sense."

"Well.. the first one sounded convincing.. wait, is there a way to check our galaxy?" Twilight tilted her head.

"Maybe Princess Luna could show you."

"She's in CANTERLOT!" I added, "right?"

"Well, I could warp you there. But you'd have to make the trip back."

"Okay, do it."

"If you insist." Twilight's horn had a purple aura encasing it, and then she blasted me. I shielded my face with my hoof. My surroundings changed. I stood in front of the castle in Canterlot.
I was actually kind of nervous. There were two royal guards on either side of me.

"Um.. can I speak to Princess Luna?"

"No." They both replied at the same time. Jackasses.

"I have special permission from Princess Celestia. I'm Lyra.. she told me that she notified you guys to let me in." They looked at each other.

"Lyra Hearstrings?" Said the left one.

"Mhmm. Can't you tell by simply looking at the lyre cutie mark?" I pointed to my cutie mark.

"Enter." They both said again. The huge doors opened for me. Great, where the hay is Princess Luna!?

"Where's Princess Luna?" I turned my head back to the two guards.

"Up the staircase, far right door." They both replied again. I walked up the stairs and went to the right door at the end of the hallway. I knocked on it.

"Whose there?" Luna answered sleepily.

"Lyra. Lyra Hearstrings."

"What is it you seek?" Princess Luna answered the door.

"Can you help me view.. the galaxy?"

"May I ask, why would you need to that?"

"Well.. Twilight has a theory to what caused humans to become ponies."

"Very well." Really? It's that easy? I was standing on space. Literal, space. Well, a My Little Pony style of space. Princess Luna appeared to my left. "Look around, but don't wander too far from me, or you could fall into space forever.

"O-okay." I looked at my surroundings. I looked at this weird planet.. could that be Earth? Wait, that's Equestria. Is that what's it's called?

"Uhm.. which planet is this? Earth or ours?" I asked stupidly. Luna tilted her head.

"Ours. Why?"

"Hm." I looked at it. Something seems off. Probably that there was a grey freakin' hole near it's atmosphere. "Look! There's a weird hole there!" Okay, in my mind right then, that sounded so stupid. "Do you think that's the cause of this?"

"Could be. We can't push it away, though. It would make humans fall into our space."

"Hmph." Suddenly, Luna fell down with me .. into space. "Luuuuuunaaaa!!!" Is she seriously sleeping!? "I'msodead." I whispered to myself. I was super worried. Her eyes were slightly opening.

"Where.. am I?" She looked around her surroundings, examined her right hoof, and flank. "The fuck?"

"GREAT, ANOTHER HUMAN!?" One that probably likes to swear alot, even better.

"H-how do horses talk.. explain. Wait, why am I even asking for an explanation from a horse.. this must be a dream!" He tried pinching himself.

"Yep, we're screwed."

"Fuck. Wait, I could bite myself!" He bit himself. "Well that's fucking fantastic. HOW THE-"

"Can you shut your trap for a moment!? Please!?" She winced. "Okay, let me explain the situation. Princess Luna teleported me and her here, so we can see if the problem, aka humans becoming ponies, is in space. Thanks to her, we could walk on the surface without falling. But, then she fell down, because you became her, and then the invisible surface was gone, and we fell to what is now."

"So how do I get out of this hell hole?" I glared at him.

"Can you stop swearing already you idiot!? The only way we can get back to the castle, where me and Luna's meeting was.. well I wouldn't say meeting.. is if you teleport us. But since you likely have no experience with your horn, you're going to have to get trained by a newbie, although I'm growing experienced with lifting things up."

"Does this help me go home?"

"UGH... I hope so, I can't stand another moment with you!"

"Bitch."

"Don't ruin my mood.. you would wish you hadn't.. okay, teleporting.. I'm not really experienced with that.. but I have some ideas of how it works.. but for this, we would need a multi pony one, since you're an alicorn, you have more power."

"Uh.. okay?"

"Okay, first let me float beside you.." I tried going closer to him. "Um.. this is going to be very hard for you.. it will only work if you have the will for it to do so.. and if you don't understand what I'm saying, because you are just plain stupid, you have to want to get us back to the castle.. which you probably don't know what it looks like."

Stupid.. stupid.. stupid.

"Uh.. so how do I teleport us to the 'castle'?" Asked Luna.

"I JUST SAID - Ughhh.. here, I'll just try.." I added, frustrated, "idiot." I concentrated on getting us to the castle. I couldn't do it. I kept trying. Still nothing. I lost almost all hope, when I finally teleported us! "I- I did it!" I did a little dance.

"I'm sorry to ruin your celebration Lyra, but you didn't." I looked towards Princess Celestia, who now stood in front of me.

"Wait.. you did?" She gave a small nod.

"Aw.." To think I would learn how to do that..

"I was worried. You two were gone for too long, so I teleported you back."

"Whose this?" Luna pointed a hoof at her. Princess Celestia looked surprised. I didn't remember ever seeing her surprised.

"Her too..?"

"Yup. Yet another human possessed a pony, who this time, is your sister."

"Lyra.. you have got to know how to fix this.."

"Wait.. this horse giant is my sister!?" I ignored Luna.

"Well, I saw this thing that kind of resembles a black hole, although it was grey. It was on the outside of our planet."

"And you think that is the cause?"

"Well, I'm assuming.. actually.. uh.." I didn't know how this could be the cause, but it must be related.. dammit, why was I so confident!? "I-I don't know.. but it must be somehow related to this.. I-I'm sorry..." I sat on the ground.

"It's not your fault.. go speak to Princess Twilight once more. She might know more about this."

"B-but.. don't you?"

"All I know is that it does not belong here. Now go, before it's too late." I galloped to the train station.. falling a few times. The conductor waited on outside of the train for everypony to get on.

"Ticket please." He held out his hoof.

"I don't have one, but you MUST understand, Princess Celestia needs me to save us all, an-"

"Do you really think making that up will let you pass? Next." It was hopeless. How could I get back to Ponyville!?

I walked slowly to the bench and sat down.. normally. I would have to sneak aboard, and I think I figured just how. It was may have been stupid enough to work. I waited until every last pony boarded the train, and the train started moving. I quickly jumped off the bench, galloping towards the back of the train and jumped up onto the small stairs, leading to the small balcony, or whatever it's called.

I couldn't believe that actually worked! I opened the back door. It was the luggage room. And again, I'm not a walking dictionary, so I don't know if that's what it's called. I then opened the door inside of there, and I was in one of.. or the only, room full of passengers (What is it called..? Well, it's not like I could look it up on the Internet, since Equestria doesn't have any! AND It's not vital to the situation). I felt eyes fall upon me. Ignoring them, I sat down on an empty seat. I was alone.

8:02 PM

The train came to a stop. Everypony exited the train (including me). The Ponyville train station.. Hm.. just like the show. I galloped to Twilight's castle, hoping I wasn't too late.

8:30

Do you have ANY idea how annoying it is when you try to gallop somewhere important and fall like an imbecile every 5 steps? I do. I knocked on Twilight's door one more time. The door opened to reveal her. Thank Celestia she was still okay. "Oh, hey Lyra, how can I help you?"

"Twilight! Princess Luna has also been possessed by yet another human!"

"Oh no.. that's terrible.." Twilight's look didn't convince me.

"Well, you don't seem bothered at all by this.."

"I am, believe me. Applejack has been also acting strange." Twilight put her right hoof on her chest.

"Well.. can I come in?"

"Come right ahead." Twilight opened the door fully for me to enter, and I saw Rainbow Dash flying in place.

"Hey Lyra, what's up?" Rainbow Dash doesn't talk like that..

"Oh, nothing much, JUST TRYING TO SAVE EVERYPONY BEFORE THEY ALL BECOME POSSESSED BY HUMANS!! What about you?"

"I'm not the only one.." Rainbow Dash muttered, thinking it was quiet enough for me not to hear.

"Aha! I knew something was wrong about you when you saw me!"

"Huh? What??"

"I heard that. Ponies have really good hearing, you know that right? And besides, it practically echoes in here, especially with your loud voice."

"Hey, I'm not loud!"

"Stop trying to avoid my claim. I know you were once a human."

"Rainbow too??" Twilight actually seemed surprised this time.

"Well, duh, can't you hear Twilight?"

"I can hear perfectly fine, thank you very much." Twilight said annoyed.

"Aw c'mon! How can I prove I'm not a human!?" She added, "Whatever that even is.."

"Okay, fine. A question only the real Rainbow would know.. which episode did Twilight and Rainbow meet in?"

"Easy. Episode 1." Rainbow Dash said triumphantly. "Wait, shit."

"Gotcha. Twilight, can you please show me to Applejack?"

"Sure, follow me." I followed Twilight.

"So.. how is Applejack?"

"Other than the fact she's bucking the door of her room? Good." Twilight showed me the door with a crap load of holes in it.

"Damn.." She opened it. Applejack was sitting in the corner.

"Uh.. hey there Applejack." I nervously smiled.

"Whaddya want?"

"Uhm.. well.. I'm just checking on you.." I said lamely.

"For what purpose? To let me out of this room?"

"Uh.. couldn't you just open the door yourself.. I mean c'mon, opening doors as a pony isn't that hard." I opened and closed the door with ease. "See?"

"Too hard."

"Anyways.. I'm going to be going now.."

"Fine. Bye." Applejack turned back around to face the corner of the empty room. Me and Twilight exited the room, closing the door. That was a pretty pointless visit.. but..

"One question.. why would you have a room like this in your castle??"

"I dunno. Spare?" Twilight shrugged.

"Anyways, I found a black hole kind of thing on the outside of our planet, although it was grey. Any idea what it is? Princess Celestia knows it isn't supposed to be there, and so do I."

"I don't know, I'm not a genius." My suspicion grew on Twilight now. "I mean.. well.. I don't know what it could be.. but maybe if you check a book?" She smiled sheepishly.

"Princess Celestia sent me to talk to Princess Twilight, not human mind Twilight."

"What do you mean? I'm perfectly okay."

"Nu-uh. Twilight should know about this, she's an egg head."

"Hey.."

"You're not the real Twilight, and everypony's doomed now for sure." I walked slowly towards the door to the castle

"Wait! I can still be of some service! Right?"

"Forget it. As far as I know, there's nothing left to do, except to watch Equestria slowly fall." I exited. I wanted to go home and see Bon Bon. "I'm just going to go see Bon Bon... Oh sweet Celestia! Bon Bon! Oh I hope she's alright! Please don't tell me she's gone, too!" I galloped back home. I don't know why I was suddenly worried about Bon Bon becoming possessed by a human. Why?

The Fall of Equestria (Or is it?)

I quickly opened the door and dashed inside. Bon Bon wasn't there. "Bon Bon!! Are you home!?" No answer. "This is going too far.. if I save Equestria and all the humans return.. then.. then.." The fact I would have to sacrifice something for the fate of Equestria. The fact that the sacrifice was my only desire. "I'll be sent back too..."

"Lyra! You're back!" Bon Bon ran up to me and hugged me.

"Y-you're still here?" I returned the hug.

"Yep!" Bon Bon stepped back.

"Well.. it doesn't matter, really.. Equestria's gone either way.."

"Don't say that.. what do you mean Equestria's gone?"

"Princess Twilight and Luna are taken over.. it's happening way too fast.. I just can't handle it. I can't handle such a task like this. And besides.. there's a secret I'm keeping.. but if I told you, you would break down."

"Oh.. okay.. but.. It doesn't matter if I cry because of it." Bon Bon tried to smile.

"Well.. I'd probably have to tell you sometime, so I'll tell you later.. but for now.. I'm going to lay down on the couch." This was it. The end of Equestria. If it wasn't the end, I would be sent back. It's either live in soon to be crazy pony land or live on shit human planet.. aka Earth. More like shit galaxy..

"Lyra.. there's got to be something we can do about it.."

"Forget it. Either way, I'm doomed too. One with Lyra and me and one with just me."

"What..?"

"There's you're hint to the truth.. although it's practically a riddle... or something that makes no sense to you."

"I know you need some rest, but you can't have any, I'm sorry Lyra." Bon Bon pulled my blanket away that I laid on the couch, wrapped in.

"Hey!"

"Lyra, please at least try. Do it for me.."

"I would, but there's no hope. Why would you even want a liar to do something for you?"

"Please..? Just do your best.."

"I did. It's over."

"I'm going to leave, Lyra.."

"To where? Sooner or later you'll also become possessed by a human, just like yours truly."

"What?"

"Fine.. I'll go." I went outside. "But if Equestria falls into chaos, don't blame me." I went walked away from the house."Who else could help me.. not Discord. He couldn't be of help. What about Cadance? No.. wait, maybe I could go back to Canterlot.. and find Moon Dancer! She's practically a copy of Twilight! That is.. if she's still unpossessed. I've got to stop talking to myself..."

9:15

"Okay, so I'm in Canterlot... wait, where does she even live!? Wait, maybe she's in Twilight's old home.. which I also don't know where it is! Although.. the place is quite big. Again, gotta shut up and stop talking to myself.." Whose up for I Spy? Scavenger Hunt?

9:31

I galloped up the stairs of Twilight's old home. I actually made it!! Maybe, just maybe there's still hope.. "Moon Dancer!!" I burst through the door. Empty. "I need your help! It's mega important!"

"Lyra?" Moon Dancer approached me from nowhere. Well, Lyra and Twinkleshine.. Moon Dancer and those other 2 ponies were friends.. so that's a bonus.

"Yeah, I need your help! Fast!"

"What's it about?" Thank god Twilight changed her.

"Do you know lots about astronomy and stuff!?"

"What about astronomy?"

"Okay.. humans are possessing ponies by the minute, and Twilight, Luna, and practically almost all of Equestria is being possessed by humans. Princess Luna teleported me and her to the galaxy, where I saw a grey black hole-like thing on the outside, and it wasn't natural for sure. Then, Princess Luna got possessed by a human, and we wer-"

"Okay, enough already! I don't need to know your life story! I'll go see what I can do." Thank Celestia somepony is of some use.

9:46

It was becoming boring waiting for Moon Dancer to come back, and reading Twilight's old books weren't helping. "Here, I found something that might help."

"Aren't you a genius? I thought you knew all about this stuff." She glared at me. "Sorry.." She placed down the open book on the ground for me. There was a drawn picture of a black hole at the side, and a description.

9:50

Okay, so from what I've gathered, that thing happens when two universes collide, which I don't know if that's even possible. The way to stop it? Probably push the other universe away.. but how the hay is that even manageable!? "We're doomed." I said, after reading the description out loud.

"Well.. how could you push an universe away from another? I don't even think that's even possible."

"Exactly! Wait.. Princess Celestia could also be of use.. and I hate to say it, but Discord too. Bye! Thanks for the help!" I galloped outside.

"No problem..?" Okay, I really need to know where Discord lives. He's the chaos god or something, right? So maybe if I tricked him into pushing the universes away with Celestia.. or if Princess Celestia maybe could push them away gently if she can.. but Discord might be rough.. so many ideas and thoughts, which probably won't work, don't matter, and besides.. I don't have time for more than one... maybe not even one.

I decided to try Princess Celestia. I arrived at her castle in 15 minutes, and the guards let me through. "Princess Celestia!" Was that what I was supposed to say to call her?

"Yes Lyra, what have you found?"

"We need to push the grey hole away from our universe."

"And how do yo suppose we do that?"

"You could try to do it.. and maybe the other princessess and Discord can help."

"Lyra, that's isn't how it works."

"Do we have a choice?"

"Very well, I will summon them." Her horn had a magical white aura encasing it, summoning Discord, Princess Luna, Princess Cadance, and Princess Twilight.

"Hey, what gives!?" Said Twilight.

"Fucks sake.. again!?" Complained Luna, who I wish would shut up and deal with it.

"Oh, Princess Celestia, thank goodness you're still okay! Why have you summoned me?" Princess Cadance stepped forward.

"Lyra has an idea, and she requested summoning you all."

"Wait, you brought Discord!?"

"Need I remind you I got 'changed' by Fluttershy?" Discord made a fake pleading face and flutterred his eyelashes.

"We await your orders." Princess Celestia said, and with that, everypony turned towards.

"Oh... M-my orders!? Uhm.. heheh.. well... there's this grey hole in space, and we need to repel it away from our universe."

"How?" Princess Cadance asked.

"Well.. I figured the princessess and Discord could combine powers and do it.."

"Hey, I'm no princess!" Luna complained.

"Will you just shut up, and stop being so annoying, negative, and such a drag!? Just go with what's going on, if you want the chance to return back to Earth!"

"Oohoohoo... pony versus princess, this I have got to see!" Discord clapped his... hands... excitedly, making.. well.. a chair that you can lean back on... and a pina colada.. appear. He leaned back on the chair, and started drinking the pina colada.

"It isn't a fight, okay Discord?"

"What if it works?" Twilight asked.

"Well.. it could stop the humans from coming here, or the humans will all be returned, as well as everypony coming back.. or it could do absoulutely nothing." I replied.

"But what if it doesn't work?" Princess Celestia asked.

"Say goodbye to Equestria, then."

"So.. we combined our powers to transfer them to Twilight.. but what if all of us now transfer our power into Lyra?"

"Nope nope nope, I'm staying out of it." I stepped back.

"Please, Lyra?"

"Ugh.. fine."

"I'm not transferring anything. I think I would love to live in the new Equestria."

"Discord.." Scolded Princess Cadance.

"Okay, okay, if you insist."

"B-but I don't wanna leave!!" Twilight broke down into tears.
