My Little Pony and Human: Friendship is Magic

Chapter 3: Welcome to Ponyville part 2

    After about an a few hours of exploration around Ponyville, Twilight decided they should head back to her house. While exploring around Ponyville, he saw lot's of stares and concerns. Most of them welcomed him with open arms and some didn't care. A lot of them asked him questions in which he did his best to answer them all. Twilight managed to get him out of the crowds of Ponies.

The sun was almost down, they arrived at Twilight's house. Joe was confused "You live in a tree house?".

Twilight smiled "Well, it may look like that from the outside but on the inside it's the Local Library and Me and Spike's home." She went up to the door and gestured her hoof at the door. "After you"

Joseph walked up to the door and opened it, he saw the room was dark and couldn't see a thing. He went inside with Twilight following him from behind "Twilight, where's the light switch?"

Twilight closed the door "It's coming on...now!" she suddenly yelled. The lights turned on and Joe was greeted by a huge "SURPRISE!". He jumped in the air and saw many ponies including Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. He looked around in amazement, 'so many, so big...for me?'. Pinkie Pie went up to him with a huge grin on her face "Hi Joe! I made this party just for you!".

"But...why?" he asked her making Pinkie Pie make a face as if he said a really stupid question "This is a welcome party silly!" she laughed. Joe looked at everpony as they smiled at him, he felt something he hasn't felt in a long time. He was Happy.

A tear dropped from his eye following a stream of tears running down his face. Everypony shown concern to him, Pinkie Pie turned sad "Are you okay Joe? Why are you crying?".

Joe noticed his tears and wiped them away "N-No, it's nothing. I have dust in my eyes." He smiled "Thank you so much, this is the best party In anyone has given me in my life"

After about an hour of partying, Joe had a fantastic time, he was greeting warmly by the ponies and had some good food and drinks. Turns out that everyone left so suddenly at the hospital was not only to get back to their work but to get ready for the Party. Twilight knew all along that they were getting ready for him. But shortly after the ponies left saying their goodbyes to Joseph and hope he will happy here until he returns home. All who left left was Joseph, Spike and the six Mane.

"Alright everypony! Let's get ready to sleep!" Twilight squeaked at the end, clapping her hooves together.

"Twilight, what about the mess?" Joe pointed out. Twilight realized how messy it was, she flopped her ears down and laughed nervously "Oh yeah, that"

"Don't worry I'll clean it up" Spike said coming from behind the group. Joe noticed the little dragon and knelt down to him "You Spike am I right?" and he offered a hand shake.

Spike smiled and shook his hand "Yeah! You remembered! Your name is...Joseph Brooklyn?". Joe nodded "That's right"

The girls giggled at them, it seems like they are best friends already. Joe looked around "Are you sure you can clean this all on your own Spike?"

Spike nodded "Yeah, it's gonna be a long night but hey, that's what I do!" he said proudly. Joe stood up "Let me help you".

Spike looked shocked "What? I can do it myself dude, you need to sleep". Joseph shook his head "I'm going to help you, the quicker we can do this the faster we can go to sleep. Sleeps good right?".

Spike putted a hand on his chin, pondering his words "Well, I do want to sleep. And with you, a big guy, we can finish this in no time. But are you sure you want to help me?"

Joe nodded "Sure I'm sure". Spike then punched his fist in the air "Alright then! Let's do this!". Twilight however stepped forward.

"Hey hang on! We'll help you!" She offered but the Boy's disliked the offer "Thanks guys but I think me and Joe can do it."

Twilight moved her hooves back and forth a bit looking guilty of them having to clean everyone's mess. "Well...okay, but please don't stay cleaning this for too long"

"Don't worry Twilight, we'll be fine" Spike said. Twilight nodded and went up with the girls and arranged their bed plans.

Spike and Joe looked at each other and grinned. Spike spoke up "Why are we grinning?" he asked to Joe but his answer was the same in Spike's mind "To be honest, I don't know".

The boys cleaned the room and thrown away the rubbish. Joe cleaned the dishes while Spike dried them. Spike and Joe were becoming close friends. They got some trays with biscuits and drinks for them and the girls.

"Feels like we're servants huh?" Spike joked. Joseph had an idea and whispered to Spike. They went up and saw the six mane in a circle, talking about what any normal girl would with others. Twilight heard them and turned to see them "Spike, Joe, oh! You brought us Refreshments, thank you so much".

They placed their refreshments down while Joe held his and Spikes refreshments. "No problem" Spike said and he and Joe bowed "Your Majesty" they both said. Twilight's eyes went wide and spurted random word out "I-Majesty-w-what?". Joe and Spike walked over to Joe's bed which was not that far away from them. They both sniggered as they sat down, leaving the girls to look at each other but they also giggled. Twilight covered her mouth with her Hoof 'Those silly two'.

It was midnight. Everypony and Dragon was fast asleep. Except for mankind, Joseph couldn't sleep. He tossed and he turned in his bed on the floor but he just could not sleep. A lot was on his mind. What would happen if he didn't attend school back on Earth, what would his father do if he found out he was missing. Joe sat up from the bed and putted a hand on his forehead, he stared at the sleeping ponies and the Dragon next to him. He needed some fresh air, Joe crept out of his bed quietly and putted his shoes on and proceeded to exit the house quietly. He got to the front door and opened it slowly and closed it slowly as he was outside. Joseph took a breath of the cool fresh night air, he looked at the night time sky and saw that the stars were out as well as half a moon. It was something Joe could never quite see normally in New York City. It was never quiet, always noisy, most of the people are cruel. But not in Ponyville, it was the place that Joe always wanted to live in, if only his father was with him and they could have a happy life. He found himself in the town square, nopony was here, just a quiet and peaceful night. He sat down on the steps of the Tower that was in the middle of the square.

He heard something coming up to him, he lifted his head up to see who it was and it was Twilight Sparkle. She held a very concerned face. "Joseph, why are you out here this late? What's wrong?"

He sighed "Twilight, I don't know what to think. I wonder what's happening right now back at home, what will my school do about my absence, what will my father do when he knows I'm gone".

Twilight sighed also and sat next to him "I'm sorry about that Joe. But I promise to try and get you home. That's what friends do."

Joe looked at her when she said 'friends' "A-Are we friends? Because I never had any friends back home". Twilight's eyes widens "What! How come?"

He looked away "I don't know why, everyone seems to think of me as a virus and hardly notices me. I get bullied for being a bookworm and being quiet all the time."

Twilight felt sorry for him, he was like her in a way. She started off with no friends and thought she didn't need any to stop Nightmare Moon but the found out friendship is important. She defeated Nightmare moon along with her new friends. Twilight putted a hoof on Joe's shoulder and smiled "You have lot's of friends already Joseph. Me, Spike, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Rainbow Dash. You are not alone"

Joe looked at Twilight with tears in his eyes. Yes, she was right, he now had friends. They don't even know who or what he was but they quickly treated him as an equal. He felt that he belonged to this world. He made a smile "Thank you Twilight, Thank you."
