Staying with a possible hero

I looked at the window and sighed internally. 'Let's see who this colt is.' I thought as I quickly jumped back to the bed. I didn't want to surprise him that I was awake and looking around his 'items'. I covered myself with his blanket, just as I was before I awoke, with my levitation spell. Just as I closed my eyes, I cast a small spell on my eyelids. This allows me to see through my eyelids like I would if they were open. While I was getting myself set up to pretend sleep, the hoof steps were coming towards me.

I took a deep breath to calm my breathing as the door opened. It so happens that my head was looking towards the door and I nearly ran from the bed. This pony wasn't a pony, it was one of the creatures from the town. Despite the horror realization, I still stayed at my position and slowed my breathing. I still wanted to observe him and get answers from my questions.

Through my eyelids, I saw him walking to the side of the bed. I looked at his body, he had clothing from bottom to top. He was forearms, except for the top of his head, were hairless. Once I looked up to his face, he smiled, as if I knew I was watching him with my spell.

"Good, you're still asleep. I need to do more research." He said to himself as he took a seat to his desk.

'Research?' I thought. I really couldn't fathom about what he said. What I did next is that I shuffled my body, acting as if I was getting comfortable to sleep, to see what he was trying to do. Once he had a seat towards his desk, he pressed a button on the black rectangular box. Something roared within the box and a small light illuminated his face. It turned from white to blue and it caught my curiosity. I then heard typing, causing my ears to twitch. 'Was it some sort of typewriter?' I thought. I really couldn't make out what kind of device he was using.

One hour past when I was observing him, I knew this because he had a clock hanging on a wall. He just sat there on his chair looking at the light or whatever he was looking at. Just when I was going to give up my 'sleeping', he sighed and reached to touch something. The blue light was off and he looked at me again sighing.

"I can't find anything to get you home..." He muttered something else that I couldn't catch.

'What? He was trying to find a way for me to get home?' I thought. It was really something bizarre about him, something that caught my attention. He was helping me. I felt really bad for judging him of being a creep or stalker. Though I'm going to pull an act of getting up so he wouldn't get suspicious. I felt the see through spell wearing off as I stretched and yawned to get his attention. I rubbed my eyes with my hoof as I opened my eyes to see that he was looking at me.

"W-Who are you?" I asked trying to act that I was surprised to see him for the first time.

He bought the act, "I don't mean you any harm. My name is Sam Hill."

"Sam Hill? That's a weird name for a pony."

"That's because I'm not a pony."

'That's right, ask some questions and milk out some answers.' I thought. I know I said that I felt bad for judging, but it doesn't hurt for a Q&A session. "Then who or what are you?" I asked.

"Well, in order for you to understand, I am a Homosapien or Human. Many years ago, ape evolved by getting smarter and with natural selection, our species came to the top. It's really hard for me to say it into words, but I want you to trust me because I will not harm you."

'Well, at least he's being honest.'

He continued, "I guess I'm not the first human you've seen, right?"

I nodded, "I looked from the wheat fields to see this town called Red Bud and I knew from first glance, I would stick out like a sore hoof."

He clicked his tongue, "I'm glad you stayed away. Humans around here aren't used to seeing something new or they'll panic."

"Sounds like Ponyville to me." I chuckled.

"That wants me to ask, how did you come here in the first place?"

I told him about my second performance in Canterlot. He was amazed that I was pursuing my dream as a singer, which made me wonder, internally shook it off. When I talked about the forest, where I came from, came up and he immediately leaned over to his desk to push a button. Getting curious, I slid off the covers to get a better look of what he was looking. It was a screen that was similar to the life support machine at the Ponyville Hospital, but it was bigger and full of colors.

'What kind of technology is this?' I asked internally. The realization slowly was churning through my stomach.

Sam snapped me out of reality, "Is this the location?" He asked.

I looked at the screen. The picture of the road, where I was before, appeared on it. He moved a spherical thing with his hand and with a click, I saw the picture moved to the sign. This sign was the same where I last saw it and I nodded in response.

He tapped his chin, "Hmmm... This is interesting."

"What's interesting?"

"Do you want to get back home?"

That was a question I have never heard since I appeared. I really wanted to go home, but I needed to know where I was in the first place. "Yes, but can you tell me where I am?"

He turned to me with his chair and sighed, "You're not in Equestria, Sweetie Belle. You are on a planet named Earth."

"... ... What?" I asked aloud.

He lowered his head and clicked on an icon. A black screen covered over the white color and he pushed the space bar on the weird typewriter.

"I need to show you this now and explain where you are." He said pushing the space bar again.

Music filled the air.

[Backup singer]
My Little Pony, My Little Pony
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh...

Twilight Sparkle
I used to wonder what friendship could be
(My Little Pony)
Until you all shared its magic with me

[Rainbow Dash]
Big adventure

[Pinkie Pie]
Tons of fun

[Rarity]
A beautiful heart

[Applejack]
Faithful and strong

[Fluttershy]
Sharing kindness!

[Twilight Sparkle]
It's an easy feat
And magic makes it all complete
You have my little ponies
Do you know you're all my very best friends?

I gulped when I saw myself on the screen for the group photo at the ending. After the intro, he clicked the device and pulled up something. The song was a show that I was in that last for seven seasons and a spin-off series came off after it of the CMC having adventures. He explained everything to me and I soaked the information into my cranium. Before I processed what was in front of me, he pulled out another page showing myself in art form. He showed me 'fan videos' of myself going dating a colt named Button Mash, then posters of myself were displayed on multiple pages on the screen.

Oh, boy... I felt lightheaded. Cold sweat dripped on top of my forehead as the realization hit me as if a wagon of apples toppled on top of me. My forehooves collapsed underneath me, this caused my breathing to quickened, my eyes went around the room. Now I understood, the poster art on his walls, the intro to this show called 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic' and everything else... I was in another dimension.

I looked at Sam as he spoke, "Do you want to be alone for you to process this?"

'Alone?' The thought echoed through my mind. The answer was no. Though I couldn't tell him that, but instead, I shook my head in response. I'm away from my home, friends and family. I didn't know what to do... My whole body shivered as I tried to get up, what was this feeling? Fear. The fear of not being able to return home scared me and I felt the color of my face turning pale. I slowly curled up into a ball, trying to hide from this realization.

My vision became blurred, but it went away because Sam put his hand on my shoulder. I looked up at him and he had a neutral expression. Even though I didn't know this colt for very long, he was offering his support. Without thinking, I jumped for a hug and he hugged back as I silently sobbed. I felt my tears slowly going through his shirt and he didn't seem to mind.


After my... Breakdown, Sam and I continued our talk. Turns out he has a degree in something called Computer Science? He said it was another type of language just to simplify it for me. I knew that technology is more advanced from Equestria, but to have a computer with a different language is just... Nuts, insane, but brilliant at the same time. After he explained what he does for a living, Sam continued to help me all he could to get me home.

"Let me get this straight." I said after I blew my muzzle, "Even though you don't know about magic, you still somehow know if we go back to where I teleported from, I might be able to return home due to the magical residue?"

"If memory, FimFiction stories, and the show is right. Yeah, that's all we need to do." He confirmed.

"How do you know that magic exist?"

"Through some books that were written in medieval times, the fact that you fainted because of a teleportation spell means that there is barely any magic on earth."

"That explains why most of my spells are weak... Why is there barely any magic?"

"It is simple as this, people don't believe in magic because it is full of illusions. There are some that believe in it, but it's in small quantities. That is my assumption, but yeah that is my knowledge about it."

That's incredible. The power of magic can only work if more people believed in it? I can't even fathom about the differences of Equestira and Earth. I stopped my brain from getting the gears to turn and got back to the discussion.

"There's a problem though; How are we going to get there? I had walked for two days through the corn and wheat fields... Unless..." He smirked, "You have one of those auto carriages?"

Sam nodded, "Yep. It's in the barn, but I need to wait until my folks are away."

That reminded me of his mother that was still downstairs, "What is going to happen if I reveal myself to your parents?"

While we were talking Sam was as he called it 'surfing the web' and he stopped once I mentioned his parents. He clicked on his 'mouse' and the computer turned off in seconds. His body moved with the chair to face me with a serious expression, and I felt a little tense with his change of nature.

"If you want to reveal yourself, you've already done that with my younger sister." He said.

"Y-Your sister?"

"She is the one who saw you while we were at the river side."

'A PONY!' The little sisters voice echos through my noggin. I blinked as I sighed, "Where is she now?"

"Currently heading back from school as we speak."

"She's a chatterbox... Isn't she?" I wondered.

He just nods, "You know it."

That puts a wrench in this situation. If Sam is telling me through his expression... She's a loud mouth and she can tell her parents anything without thinking. Kind of like Diamond Tiara, but more innocent than Apple Bloom. There is a way to convince her to be quiet until I find out how to get home with Sam's methods. I could use my invisibility spell that can last for twenty-four hours, but has to charge for about three to five hours to use again. I have no idea how magic works here on Earth, but given the fact that I fainted after a simple teleportation spell, the invisibility couldn't last that long.

Then again, revealing myself to the family would be beneficial. Instead of hiding from the mother and father, only to be found out then scaring the daylights out of them. We would be able to get the reactions out of the way and together we could get me home. Though there is a possibility that his parents are the 'don't like sudden change' and would go berserk on him or me. I went through that when I went with Spike to find his parents and they thought I was dating him (Let's just say it almost turned the Everfree into a lava pit if it turned out bad).

"So what is your decision. I'll try to get you home by trying to feel comfortable. If you want to reveal yourself to the family, that's fine. If you don't want to show yourself, I'll support you with what I got."

I nodded in response as I sighed, 'This isn't going to be easy, is it?'


Author's Note

Next question!

Does Sweetie Belle reveal herself to the family or not?

Just an update about this story, I want your honest answers about how I'm doing on this interactive story. This is just an experiment and from the likes, it's doing well. Here's the question:

When the story ends, I may give the option to give you the choices that didn't make it into this story. For example: If Sweetie Belle went South instead of going North and vice versa. What do you think of that?
