Door 1: Wolf Child

Additional Category(ies): [Slice of Life]

After the brightness faded, I saw another door not far ahead. I quickly galloped to the door and opened it. When I went through, I saw that I was in an alleyway. I slowly walked out and saw that I was somewhat in the marketplace of Ponyville. "Woah..." I said under my breath as I saw the many stands with food, items, and supplies for pretty much anything. I saw that I was pretty much a pony still. I took another step before stepping on a piece of paper. I used my hoof to pick it up and read what was on it. It was made in magazine letters as I read it. I said:

Dear Pixel Berry or Lean(for short),

I forgot to mention that certain doors have a spell that will shift you into a human. I didn't want to scare you after every door, but it will be at random. I used the magic used for the mirror to the other world thanks to Princess Twilight in my world. Anyways, hope you have fun in your 'Fanfic'!
~Discord

'Stupid Discord...' I thought. 'Always making things more complicated.' I then took the note and ripped it to pieces before throwing it out. "And what does he mean by my fanfic?" I mumbled to myself. My stomach then started growling. "Shoot, I knew I forgot something. Food."

"Well, howdy here, sugarcube." I heard a familiar southern voice.

'No, it can't be.' I turned my head to see an orange mare with blond mane and tail with her Stetson hat. Aka: Applejack. She was in her apple stand and just seeing her perfect red apples made my stomach growl again.

"Seems like ya'll havin' some trouble with yer growlin' belly. Here, have one. It's on the house." She then tossed a big red apple at me. I wasn't ready so I flinched and thought of maybe grabbing it. But the hit never came. "Wow. Ah never seen a magic aura like that." I heard her say.

'Wait, magic aura?' I opened one eye as I saw the apple floating in a pink pixelated aura. It looked weirdly fascinating. I actually saw some of the apple look a bit pixelated as well. I then looked up to see my horn being covered in the same aura, it too looking pixelated in certain areas. 'Double woah.'

I then thought of bringing the apple closer, and it did as I thought. 'Is telekinesis really this easy, or am I just OP?' I thought as I let go of the grasp and the apple landed on my awaiting hoof. I took a quick bite and I instantly loved the taste. 'So good...'

I swallowed the bite I took. "Thank you miss..." I didn't want to say her name right away, or she might've question my knowledge and I knew I couldn't like to the element of honesty.

"The names Applejack, sugarcube." She said. "Ah'm one of the proud owners of Sweet Apple Acers."

"Oh, I heard of that farm. Must be really great if your apples are this good." I said with a small smile.

"Aw, shucks. No need to be so sweet." Applejack said with a pink blush.

"So uhm, this might be weird, but to you perhaps have any doors that are completely whit from the doorframe to the doorknob?" I asked randomly.

"Not that ah know of. Why do you ask?" She asked.

'Shoot! I can't lie or tell the truth. Maybe I should pull the old "Just curious" card.' I thought. "Just curious." I said.

The orange mare stood silent as she checked to see if I was lying. To be honest, I was curious, but that wasn't the main reason I asked that random question.

"So, again, thanks for the apple, but I need to look around more. So, until we meet again?" I said as I placed the apple core in an empty barrel with my levitation.

"Well, yer welcome sugarcube. Anytime ya wanna chat, just come right back." Applejack said with a small smile before I started walking off. She watched me until I was out of sight. "That mare is keepin' something from me. And ah think it had to do wit that white door question." She said to herself.

~

After a whole self-tour around Ponyville, I knew pretty much the whole town like the back of my ha-er hoof. Yeah, hoof! I was rather surprised that a famous party pony hasn't tackle hugged me yet. 'Maybe I can give her a surprise visit.' I smirked as I made my way to Sugarcube Corner.

It didn't take too long before I saw the familiar gingerbread-shopped design ahead and I started making my way to the bakery. I went through the door as the front bell to the sweet shop. I looked to see it was somewhat crowded, yet there was some room for any new customers. I saw that Mr. Cake was working on the counter and I was assuming that either Pinkie was in the kitchen working on the orders and Mrs. Cake was taking care of the twins, or the twins weren't in this world yet and the other two are just in the kitchen.

'Hmm...maybe I can wait till Pinkie or one of the Cakes comes to take my order, in which I can't order anything without money.' I thought as I sat down in the corner of the shop and examined the table and how detailed it seemed up close. "Hmm..."

"Hiya!" I high toned voice said out of nowhere, making me jump and fall off my chair. "Whopsie! I'm sorry. Here, lemmie help you up." The voice said as I felt a pair of soft hooves grab me and help me up and back on the chair. I noticed that my glasses fell off as well, so everything was a bright, colorful blurs. I then saw a pink blurs hold my glasses and put it back on my muzzle. When I could see again, a very familiar and pink earth pony was standing across me from the table. She had a bit of an apologetic smile on. "Again, sorry about that. I made a cupcake to show how sorry I am." She pulled out a pastel pink frosted cupcake with a half strawberry and little pixelated parts of it on it. I quickly glanced at my flank to see the same picture on both sides of my plot. 'Was she starring at my plot to make the picture on the cupcake?' I thought.

The pink pony then placed the cupcake next to me and sat next to me with a chair she brought out of nowhere. "So, I never seen you before. Are you a new pony in town?" She asked.

"Well, yes. Yes I am." I nodded. I then heard a loud gasp from her.

"Ohmygosh! A new pony! I need to throw a 'Welcome to Ponyville' party for you. You'll love it! And you could meet my seven bestest of best friends." She said with a smile.

'Wait, seven. I know five is the other bearers of the elements of harmony, and one is Spike most likely. But who's the seventh?' I thought with a hoof on my chin. "Uhm, okay. I'd love that. But I have a bit of a strange question to ask." I said.

"Shoot." She said.

"Well, is there perhaps a completely white door in your store or anyplace you visited?" I asked.

Pinkie hummed as she thought about it. She then answered. "Nopie dopie." She shook her head. "Now, I want to ask you a few questions around your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party. Okay?"

"Sure, but maybe I can meet your seven friends while we talk and walk around Ponyville." I said.

Pinkie gasped again. "That's a super duper idea! But I want to keep my friends a secret till the party."

"Aww~ Okay then." I said as I took the cupcake and started eating it. It was vanilla flavored.

"Okie dokei loki." She said. "First, what's you name?"

~Time Skip due to Boring Q&A on Parties~

After what felt like forever, Pinkie told me to explore the town a little and meet at the Golden Oakes Library at three in the afternoon, which was an hour away. I already saw almost everything, so I decided to go back to the market to look around again, just to see if anything was different.

I saw the market a distance away. I was about to pick up the pace, until my horn stared glowing and it stopped me from walking. "Wh-what the-?" I then felt as the magic in my horn pulling me somewhere. "H-hey! Stop that!" As much as I tried to cancel this weird magic, it just kept on tugging me to wherever it wanted to take me. 'Why does this seem so familiar?' I thought as I gave up and the tips of my hooves were dragging on the cobblestone street. Soon I was dragged to the alleyway I was in and I tripped over a saddle bag. "Oof!" I faceplanted on the floor.

I spat out some dirt as I got up and turned to glare at the bag I tripped over. I saw that it was magenta with black straps and a strawberry clip. 'Hmm... not bad.' I thought as i tried to put it on. It took awhile, but soon I had it on my back and I wanted to know what was inside. Using the power of my mind, or telekinesis if you'd like, I opened one of the bags, which was the right bag, and saw a nice pair of black headsets with magenta music notes on the side and gray cushions inside. I place it around my neck and it felt so nice. I paces one of my hooves on it and felt how smooth and new it was. 'It feels just like my noise-cancelling headsets back at home.' I thought.

I then look through it some more and saw my phone was in there. For some reason, with my rather happy smile came a squee sound as well. But I just ignored it. "Ohmygosh. My baby. I missed you so much. I'll never let you leave my sight again." I checked to see that there was an infinity sign instead of a battery percentage. I also saw that I had great wifi, but no signals. 'Eh, I never really called or texted anyone that isn't online anyways.' I thought as I plugged my headset into my phone. I placed my phone back in the saddle as I closed it, but the wire of the headset popped out from the side. I then checked the other saddle bag. I opened the left flap of the bag and saw a small bag of bits and gems. I took some out, but saw that the bag seemed unchanged. 'Awesome! An endless bag of bits and gems!' I smiled as I put it back. I then saw a rolled up piece of parchment and unraveled it. I saw that it was the entire map of Equestria. "Woah."

I looked to see a pink orb on Ponyville and I tapped it. It zoomed in on the town and I saw the orb was in a alleyway. 'Wait, is that supposed to be me?' I thought. I then scrolled my hoof on the map and it was almost like an apple map app. I looked around and finally spotted a white orb on a cottage by the woods. 'Is that where the door is? Kind of a bore if you know where it is.' I thought. I then rolled up the map before placing it back in the saddlebag and walking out the alleyway. "I bet Discord set that up and pulled me over here." I said to myself as I started walking around again.

~One Hour Later~

I checked the time and saw it was a few minutes before it was time for the party. I trotted to the library with the saddles on my back as I got closer. Soon I was in front of the small steps of the front door as it was time already. I looked through the window a little and saw that the lights were off. I lightly tapped the door and saw that it was unlocked. I quietly opened the door before the lights turned on and a group of ponies shouted "SURPRISE!" right in my ears. I yelped in shock, but didn't faint or anything.

"Hiya Pixel Berry! I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but my name is Pinkie Pie and this is your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party. Made just for you!" Pinkie said as she wrapped a hoof over my neck.

"It's okay Pinkie. You had a lot of stuff in you hooves as it is." I said.

"That's true. Anyways! I want you to meet my friends." She then guided me to the small group of friends. Just as I thought, they were the bearers of the elements of harmony and a small dragon. But that was only six. Was the seventh hiding, or was Pinkie saying seven including herself?

"This is Twilight Sparkle." Pinkie gestured to the purple unicorn.

"It's nice to meet you." She said with a small smile.

"Applejack." She switched her gesture to a familiar orange mare.

"So yer name is Pixel Berry." She said as she walked closer. She brought a hoof out to shake. I gently brought my hoof out, but remembered what happened to Twilight too soon. My hoof was being shaken vigorously, as if my hoof was gonna pop right off. She soon let go and my hoof went a bit limp.

"Wow, what a strong shake." I said as I rubbed my hoof.

"Tell me about it." I heard Twilight say and hear a small chuckle from the purple dragon beside her.

Pinkie then brought me to a rainbow manned Pegasus. "This is Rainbow Dash." She said.

"Fastest pony in Equestria. And don't you forget it." She hovered over me with a smirk.

"Duly noted." I nodded as my head was turned to a white unicorn. "That's Rarity." I heard Pinkie say.

"A pleasure to meet you darling." She bowed a little.

"I think the pleasure is all mine." I smiled as I bowed a little as well.

"I must say though. I love your mane and tail as well as you saddle." She pointed out.

"Oh, well, thanks." I smiled a little, not really used to compliments.

"Hey. I didn't see you with that saddle before." Pinkie said. "Where did you get it?"

"Well, I just went around town and picked it up from where I left it. Completely forgot about it." I said. I saw that Applejack was looking at me oddly, but it seemed she brushed the small lie off. 'Guess it wasn't worth it.' I thought.

"And lastly, this is Fluttershy and-" Pinkie was then interrupted by me.

"Yemei!?" I said a bit shocked. The wolf-hidden-human quickly hid behind the yellow mare as I placed a hoof in my mouth, realizing that I just blew my cover. 'Oh shit.' I thought, right before I was knocked unconscious by something.

~3rd P.O.V.~

Once Twilight was sure that Pixel was knocked out by her spell, she looked at the others with worry in her eyes. "Alright everypony, who said anything about her?" She asked.

Everyone said they didn't and Pinkie only mentioned her as seven of her bestest best friends. She didn't even tell her the young human's name.

"A knew this mare was hidin' somethin'." Applejack said. "She was askin' 'bout some white door that might've been in mah farm."

"She told you too? She asked me too." Pinkie said.

"Why would a mare be looking for a white door?" Twilight said.

"Who cares about a colorless door. All we need to worry about is how she knew Yemei's name without any of us telling her." Rainbow said, landing on the wooden floor and standing next to the brown pup.

"M-maybe somepony told her w-while she was exploring the t-town like Pinkie told her t-to." Fluttershy said.

"That could be it, but Fluttershy. Doesn't nopony know her name? They only see her walking around with you." Twilight said.

"Th-that is true." Fluttershy looked down.

"Ah don't know how she knew her name, but ah think we have a few questions to ask her." Applejack said, pulling a rope from under her hat. It was in a tight ball, so it made sense on how it stayed in her hat.

"Aww, yeah. Let's tie this mare up." Rainbow said as she grabbed one end of the rope.

"No. No tying anypony up. Let's just bound her to the floor so she can't get up." Twilight said.

"I agree with Twilight. I mean, I wouldn't like to wake up tied up." Rarity said.

"Ah guess that does make some sense." Applejack said as she rolled up her rope, but left it on her back.

Twilight then levitated the unconscious mare onto one of the chairs from the kitchen and casted a spell that way she couldn't get up on the chair. Almost like her plot was glued to the chair.

Not long after, she started waking up with a groan.

~My P.O.V.~

I groaned as I started waking up. 'Man. What hit me?' I thought as my eyes fluttered open and I still had my glasses on. I shook my head a little, but I guess I moved too fast that I pulled a vein and it started hurting with a warm sensation. "Ah! That hurts." I felt my ears go down at the pain.

I then heard someone clear there throat. I looked to see Twilight and the others looking at me. "Uhm...hello?" I saw that Twilight, Rainbow Dash and Applejack had a suspicious look at me, Rarity, Spike and Pinkie Pie showed neutral expressions and Fluttershy had a mixture of worry and a bit of fright in her face. I couldn't see Yemei, but I assumed he was hiding from the strange mare that knows her name.

A blue hoof then slammed on the table between me and the others, making me and Fluttershy yelp at the sudden action. "Alright! Start talking!" Rainbow said, looking as if I was her worse enemy.

"Wh-what?" I got nervous at her glare.

"You know what's up. How do you know Yemei's name? And don't lie, we got AJ with us." She said as she leaned closer to me.

Twilight then pulled Rainbow back before anything got messy. "I'm sorry Pixel, but we need to know how you know Yemei's name without any of us telling you." Twilight said.

I looked at the others before I let out a sigh. "I... I'm sorry, I can't. If I told you the truth, you wouldn't believe me." I said.

"Don't worry about that sugarcube. As long as yer tellin' the truth, ah'll believe anything." Applejack said, placing a calm hoof on my shoulder.

I sighed again. "Alright. I'll tell." At that, most of the mares leaned in on my explanation. "Th-the reason why I kn-know Yemei is cause... I created her."

"Wait, what?" I heard Rainbow say.

"Ah'm confused. Ya ain't lying, but ah need a bit of an explanation." Applejack said.

"I can tell." I said. "I was confused on what Discord meant by my Fanfic. But now I do."

"Please explain this to us Pixel." Twilight said.

"Okay, okay." I nodded. "Like I said, I created her. Out of my own imagination based on a heartfelt movie that was just beautiful. It was titled 'Wolf Child' and it was based around a human who can turn into a wolf at will, try to live a hidden life among equines that are nothing like her. Most people already did a human child in Equestria, but not a child like mine. This world was created via online literature for people with imagination and creative spirits around the fictional world of Equestria. I am one of the many who have these creative minds, but I feel as if I'm a bit different then the others. My creativity is some that none have ever thought of before. I think out of the box and give my heart and soul into my books."

They all stood silent.

"So, in hindsight, I am your creater. Your god. I can give but also take whatever I want." I said.

"I...I can't believe it." Twilight said. "Aplejack. Is this true?"

Applejack was just starring at me with the same look of shock. She didn't have to say anything, just slowly nod.

"I am lost in this world. I am on a journey to find my way home. I need to find a white door. And I think I know where it is." I said.

"Uhm, what is so important about this door?" Rarity asked.

"When I go through the door, I'll go to another world that was created by another writer inspired by your fictional world. If I keep on going, I can go home."

"Wait a minute. If you know about Yemei, do you think you can shine some light around her kind?" Fluttershy asked. "I need to know more about my daughter."

"Of course, but I don't have all the answers." I said. "Those are for you to discover yourself."

~Le Time Skip~

By now, the main six understood my existence of being there creator of there dimension and also got a bit of info on Yemei's kind. Though, I didn't go further on my own world and such. Twilight took lots of notes and even wrote them in one of the many blank books she has. Of course we did have our party and it went on without any further surprises. Yemei was cautious of me, but I understood her actions around me. They questioned a lot on what I had plan for there future, but I didn't give any spoilers.

After an hour or two, the party was getting dull and Pinkie officially called the party over and everypony helped out in cleaning up, even me. After a half an hour of cleaning, the library was clean once more and it was time for everypony to head home. But they wanted to send me off before they went to there home. I said that the door was at Fluttershy's cottage and we all headed that way.

When we arrived at the cottage, I started looking around for the white door. I checked everywhere except for Yemei's bedroom, but it was nowhere. I then decided to look in Yemei's room and saw that the closet in her room was the exit. Soon the main six, Spike and Yemei were in the room, awaiting for my departure.

"I really wish I could stay longer, but I need to get back home. Everypony I care for is waiting for me." I said.

"Ah understand, and ah wish we could know more about ya. Make sure ya get home safe n' sound." Applejack said.

"Aww~. I wish my newest of new friends could stay." Pinkie whined. "But the story must continued! You still haven't chosen the effect of the Poison Joke yet. Everypony might get agitated."

"Your right about that Pinkie." I smiled.

"Even though we didn't talk much. I do wish you could stay a bit long so me and Fluttershy can know more like you and become at least friends." Rarity said.

"Me too Rarity. But I have a feeling we might've not hit off that well." I said.

"Thanks for the information you've given us. It will help us greatly. And I bet Princess Celestia might be shocked that we met our creator." Twilight said.

"Sorry Twi, but that's another secret to keep. I don't think Celestia would believe that anyways." I said.

"Another secret to keep? Celestia might not like all this secret keeping." She said.

"Again, I'm sorry that I can't stay any longer, but I need to continue my journey. I hope you guys do great on keeping Yemei a secret. But you must know that sooner or later she has to come out of the shadows." I said.

"We know, and ah think that maybe we'll be thinkin' on a plan to bring Yemei to the public." Applejack said.

"Thanks. So, can I get a farewell hug?" I asked with open hooves.

"Of course!" Pinkie said as she brought all of us in a group hug, me being in the center.

The hug broke and I opened the door, the bright light shining on the other side. "Goodbye everypony. I'll miss you."

I smiled as I heard the many farewells as I started walking through the door. Soon the white door closed on its own, and the white door shifted to its natural brown closet door. Pinkie opened it to see a normal closet.

"Aww~ bummer."

Door 2: A Vinyl Parable

Additional Category(ies): None

As Vinyl walked through the streets of Ponyville she still couldn't find anypony around.

I look around at the empty streets and the door open behind me, momentarily stunned. The door shut on it's own, appearing to lead into some building.

Maybe there was a town meeting I missed. Thought Vinyl. As she came upon a split in the road Vinyl turned left, towards the town hall.

"Um, excuse me?" I ask into the open air, directing my voice towards the loud overhead voice.

I- what...? A... a question? No, no, that's not possible. You can't have a meaningful contribution to the narrative Vinyl, that's not how this goes. You- Wait. You're not Vinyl. No, of course not. Vinyl doesn't ask questions. She can't. What have you done with Vinyl? I need a mare that makes choices, not a mare that inquires! You're ruining the narrative! Oh, who am I kidding, it's already ruined...

"I'm sorry...?" I say, unsure of what the voice could be talking about.

No, I don't think you are. You don't seem capable of trust, or even simple tasks like following directions. You couldn't just listen, play along. If you're going to take the place of Vinyl you have to be good at it. Vinyl wouldn't have questioned me. Vinyl would have just went down a road. Any road really. She doesn't need the power of inquiry, she has the power of choice. She might have listened to me, but she could ignored me. At least then the story would have resolution.

"I could still make a choice." I tell him, stepping towards the left door eagerly. I hope that this will fix whatever problem there is.

No, no, no, no. We can't have that! the doors shut swiftly and I take a step away from the door.

"Why not?" I ask incredulously.

Because you're not the main character of this story! A story in which the main character suddenly changes somewhere in the middle. No for a coherent story we're going to have to reset this.

~

This is not Vinyl. This was, in fact, nobody. Being that nobody knew her, or where she came from. She was, by definition, a Nothing. But what was she doing here? What purpose could she serve to the story? But because of the sole fact that this Nothing seemed determined to press forward despite the crushing pointlessness of her existence, she did so.

I blink as my vision starts to clear, revealing a living room of sorts. This room in and of itself was disorienting. It was split down the middle into two very different designs.

This nothing was so absolutely detached from the story at hand, that the present situation completely baffled her. This task didn't seem very difficult, considering the amount of thought that went into her plan in the first place. Step 1: Replace important character. Step 2: well... she hadn't really planned that far.

"I didn't MEAN to take... Vinyl's? You mean Vinyl Scratch? I didn't mean to take her place." I correct the voice.

Well, that's obvious from the piss poor job your doing. Vinyl would have been halfway to Ponyville by now, while your stuck here bumbling over every little thing. Isn't it apparent by the open front door that that's where you go? I swear, it's like I'm narrating a two year old.

I ignore the rude comments and look at the open door. I step out and find a dirt pathway, surrounded by tall metal gates.

Now, seeing as this Nothing had no idea what she was doing, it seemed pertinent to show her the proper path. If this nobody had any real idea what this story was supposes to be she may have noticed that Vinyl's roommate was mysteriously missing. But seeing as such a character means Nothing to nobody, nobody moved forward for the sake of narrative development.

"My names not nobody. My names Pixel. Pixel Berry." I correct, a little angry at his continued insults. "This certainly isn't like the animation..." I mutter, thinking on Doors.

This no one continued to scream at the voice pointlessly. She was so desperate for some interaction in this sudden ghost town that she'd taken to talking to the voice she'd been hearing. She...

There was a long pause as I stopped walking, I had only stopped to listen to the voice.

No, I can't do this. It's just not the same. I liked the choices, and I can't stand the inquiries. Why couldn't you just act like Vinyl. The story doesn't need you, I don't need you, and Vinyl most certainly doesn't need you. You see that door?

I look back down the path at the door I had just walked through. It was closed. "Yeah?" I ask hesitantly.

It's unlocked now. Go ahead, step on through it.

"Where does it lead?" I ask, walking up and opening it.

I don't know! You figure it out. I don't have any answers, I only know the outcomes. And even now I don't really know. All I know is the story, and with you... well, there is no story. The story gets confused. It's all just chaos now. There isn't even any narrative contradiction because there is no narrative! You've ruined it all with your being here! I don't know what's on the other side of that door because it isn't part of the story. I don't even know how it got there. But you aren't a part of the story either, so just go in there and leave me alone.

"I'm sorry." I say hesitantly, taken aback by his tone. I don't know if I could even cheer him up.

If you’re really sorry then just leave. Maybe then Vinyl will be back. Maybe then the story will be fixed. Maybe then… Maybe then we can be happy. Me and her. Oh, I hate to think what’s become of her. She was all that was left, her and the story. No, that’s not quite right… She is the story. What point is there for a narrator without a story?

I look at the door anxiously. It has to be my exit, but what about him? I look back and up, not sure where exactly he is watching from. I take a deep breath and take a step through the door.

And the narrator was happy.

Door 3: Guardian Who

Additional Category(ies): [Sci-Fi]

‘Well he was such a sweet host.’ Pixel thought as she walked through the white abyss. After awhile, she found a white door and galloped through it. She opened the door with her hoof and the bright light shined before she is met with the hard rock flooring of this new world. But something felt different as she stepped onto the hard ground. Did it feel more harder than usual? She looked down to see she was standing on all fours as a human girl again.

“Wait, I’m a human again? How!? Oh, right, magic doors. Just as Discord said.” She said to herself. She got up on her feet to see she was barefoot but had clothes on. She saw that she was in her pajamas before she woke up to this whole mess, white and grey soft pajama pants and gray tank top that really makes her chest ‘pop’ out with a noticeable cleavage and black sports bra showing. She blushed a little that it was out in the open, even if no one was around to see. ‘That’s another good thing… I guess.’ She thought. She also felt something on her back, she tried to turn around to see what it was. A small glance and she saw it was the saddle only it was a backpack instead. ‘Weird magic.’

Lean decide to stop looking at herself and look at her surroundings. Lean saw that she was in what looked like a volcanic area. Maybe on a volcano itself, she wasn’t sure. It just looked like the aftermath of a volcanic eruption...after the lava hardened. She looked up to see gray clouds, or what she assumed was clouds and is most likely the ash from the eruption aftermath. She decided to go up the volcano. Why? Well, who wouldn’t? Also cause the bottom seemed a bit boring with grass n’ stuff.

After what felt like half an hour of climbing, Lean started feeling tired and even sweated a bit, which she rarely does. she stopped at the edge of the volcano top and took a breather. As she sat down, she felt as if she was sitting on wood. ‘That doesn’t feel right...’ She thought. She looked at where she was sitting, and she saw she was sitting on a wooden chest. “What’s a chest doing up here?” She asked out loud.

Soon she felt the ground shake a little, and what sounded like a gruff voice of somebody. ‘Oh crap! Am I someplace I’m not supposed to be? I gotta hide!’ She quickly got up and tried to find somewhere to hide, but all there was to hide was inside the chest. “Fun-size, don’t fail me now.” She opened the chest that had some gems and gold coins in it with some jewels and even a crown. The crown seemed like it would make it too small for Lean to fit in, so she quickly put it on and jumped into the chest, it closing on it’s own with a small ‘click’. ‘Crap! Please don’t tell me the chest locked itself?’ She thought as she felt the footsteps get closer. She peeped through the keyhole to see what was going on.

She could hear voices, but not much else. There were two of them, both female, though one was certainly younger while the other much older. Lean wasn’t able to distinguish what they were saying, unfortunately, but definitely was able to tell what they were doing when they picked up the chest. Fearing what could be the source of the voices, she kept her hand over her mouth to keep from making a sound.

The chest was carried for quite some distance, shaking a few times from either the carriers or earthquakes, she couldn’t tell which. For what seemed like hours, the chest was jostled from the walking until, finally, Lean felt her container set down on solid ground. Without the background noise of volcanic eruptions and quakes, she could only now make out what her captors were saying.

“Well, that was some adventure, wouldn’t you say?” a chipper, British voice responded from the elder one.

“Yeah, adventure,” the younger replied with sarcasm dripping from her voice. “What in the wide, wide world of Equestria was so important about this chest that we come to a planet of volcanos? Freaking volcanos!”

“Not quite sure, honestly,” the other spoke, never losing her chipperness. “I got a message on my psychic paper saying that there would be an important box here that we should pick up. And if it came in on the psychic paper, welllll it would just be rude to ignore it, now wouldn’t it?”

Lean heard the younger groan. “Honestly, I doubt there’s anything all that important in this box.” There was a loud thump to the box near her head, causing a quick squeak to come from her mouth.

“...did that box just squeak?”

The elder voice started to laugh a little. “Ooh hoo hoo, looks like we might have picked up more than a box.” There was a small silence. “Alrighty then, come on out. We know you’re in there, just come on out and there won’t be any trouble.”

Lean whimpered as she tried to open the chest from the inside. With little space, only small thumps were heard of her backpack hitting the top and it not opening. She wasn't sure whether to say she couldn't open it or that action was proof enough that she was trapped inside.

There was a light tapping on the top of the chest. “Uh, Guardian? I think it’s locked.”

“Locked?” Steps approached before another knocking came atop. “Oh… well, that’s unfortunate. Just hold on a moment, whoever you are. We’ll have you out before you can say ‘meep’.”

“Why would anyone say ‘meep’?”

“You’d be surprised the reasons people would say ‘meep’.”

Lean's sarcastic side kicked in and she let out a small 'meep', laughing a bit on the inside and a small smirk on the outside.

“Oh, a cheeky thing, eh? We might just get along, you and I.” A strange, yet familiar sound came from outside the box, a click coming from the lock not even a second later. “Alright, it’s unlocked. You can come out now.”

Lean quickly opened the chest and took a gulp of air before starting to cough at how dusty it was in the chest. "Thank god." She said out loud. 'And imagine my little brother in that chest. He's claustrophobic' She thought.

“Woah!” the younger voice called out, making Lean looked down to see a pink filly with a crazy purple swirl mane and tail. “Pop goes the human.”

The elder’s laugh directed Lean to notice the much older looking olive green pony with auburn hair. “Very clever, Screwy. Very clever.” She laughed a little more before looking at Lean. “Hello there. Nice to meet you, I’m the Guardian. And… you are?”

"Uhm...Lean?" She said awkwardly, unsure on how to really respond after all that. She stretched a little, not realizing that she was still in the chest with a crown atop of her head.

“Well, Leeeeean,” the Guardian said, stretching out the name as she strode around a large room that almost looked to be made of coral. “Welcome aboard the TARDIS. I’m the Guardian, as I said only a few moments ago, and that silly filly over there,” she gestured with her hoof to the waving filly, “is Screwball.”

“Hi Lean,” said pony cheered lightly.

"Wait...TARDIS? Why does that sound familiar?" Lean rubbed her chin a few seconds before she realized where it's from. 'Seriously? Doctor Who reference already?... sorta.' She thought. 'I wonder which Doctor she is...not that I know the official show too well.' She glanced at Guardian before looking down to see she was in the chest.

"Oh...didn't see I was still in the chest." Lean got out with a bit of trouble, mostly due to a pearl necklace stuck on her ankle and making her trip and fall to the floor, face first. After a few seconds of silence, she let out a muffled "...ow."

“Are you okay?” Lean looked up to see Screwball’s glasses covered eyes looking down on her. “That didn’t look like a lot of fun.”

“If you need to, dearie, there’s bandages in the floor panel behind you,” the Guardian said as she began flipping switches along the console in the center of the room.

"No, no. I'm good, just a small amount of pain and maybe a black and blue after this." Lean said, waving her hand as if it wasn't nothing, which it wasn't. The large crown soon went down her head and now lowered her glasses and covered Lean's eyes, her glasses on the edge of her nose. She stayed like that for awhile, looking as if Lean was frozen in place. She does that sometimes.

“So, Leeean,” the Guardian drew out again. “What’s a young human girl… nerdy girl most likely, doing on a volcanic planet, locked in a box? Hmm? Either something odd happened to you or you have some really strange hobbies.”

"I will agree on the strange hobbies, but that wasn't the reason. I just heard something coming and hid in the closest thing I could find. And the reason I was in that volcanic area is another story on its own." Lean answered, lifting the crown up off her nose and brought her glasses back on their natural spot on her nose. "Let's just say a Chaotic God was the cause of my sudden appearance." She added.

“My daddy?” Screwball asked.

“Alternate universes, Screwy,” the Guardian corrected. “It seems we have another multiversal traveler on our hooves. Now that’s just brilliant. But! The question is… how are you getting between these worlds, hmm?” She leaned on the console, looking directly at Lean. “Go on, tell us. We can help you.”

"Well, to be honest, the idea was based on a small animation collab where I came from, and now I have to find doors that are completely white to jump to other worlds and find my way home. The only way you could help is either you help me find the door to go to another random dimension, or you find a way to send me straight to my dimension. But I think the first one is most likely." Lean said, rubbing the back of her neck while looking down. At this point, she got tired of laying on the floor, and sat down instead, legs crossed.

“Hmm,” the mare mused, moving over to her console. “A door you say? Well isn’t that coincidental, considering a strange white door suddenly appeared on a planet a few weeks ago. The planet Chitin, to be exact.”

“Aaaand you know this… how?” Screwball asked.

“I do keep up on current events, you know. I monitor all newscasts within certain dimensions to make sure there’s nothing horrific going on. You don’t stay alive for as long as I have without a few little paranoidal tendencies.”

"So...where is this planet Chitin? Are we close to it?" She asked, wanting to look out the window...if she could find any first.

“Should only take us about five, ten minutes at most.” The Guardian looked up from the console, seeing Lean looking around, a smile growing on the mare’s face. She flipped one of the levers, causing the TARDIS’ front door to swing open wide.

Lean yelped in surprise and backed up quickly to the wall opposite of the open door, thinking that she’ll get sucked into space like all those space movies with the broken glass windows. When she didn’t feel the imaginative intense suction that she’d thought she would feel never come, she opened her eyes to see the door still open and the two ponies staring at her like she was crazy or weird. After a moment of awkward silence, she cleared her throat with a pink blush. “I meant to do that.” She lied, making her blush more.

“Of course you did, honey,” the Guardian chuckled. “Now go on, take a look,” the mare whispered with a knowing smile. “I promise you’ll love it.”

With a small nervous gulp, Lean slowly crawled to the open door, seeing a night sky. When she was at close as she would make herself to the open door, her eyes sparkled like the stars she saw all around her. She saw as some comets, shooting stars and planets a good distance away. Lean wanted to reach out, but she was worried that whatever was not making her get sucked into space might break.

“Magnificent, isn’t it?” the Guardian’s voice came from right next to Lean. The girl was so enthralled she wasn’t even surprised, only nodding slowly. “Even after all these years, I still love the sight that the many universes can bring. See out there, that little cloud of space dust in the distance?” She was pointing to a small, green nebula far off in the distance.

“Uhm, yeah?” She nodded a little..

“Just beyond that… add a couple million light years, and you’re on Earth. Well an Earth. That little blue and green ball that humanity calls home. Such a small start for your species, yet they grew into something so vast and beautiful. All it took was time and effort, with a tad bit of luck for good measure.” The Guardian giggled a little. “Now come back in. Before we take off for Chitin, you look like you could use a nice bath and some food. How does that sound?”

Lean’s stomach growled at the mention of food. She blushed embarrassingly while hugging her small stomach. “I guess I could go for something to eat. But isn’t that asking for a lot from you?” She asked. “I don’t want to ask for more than what I’m already receiving.” She stood up and felt the floor on her feet again, it was a bit cold, but the cold that you crave for after a rather hot slumber.

The Guardian gave her small smile before leading her back into the main room. “Now don’t you be like that. You are our guest here and I’d like to open up my home to you. And I don’t wanna hear another peep about you not wanting help. Screwball will lead you to the bathroom while I get some cooking done.”

“Come on, Lean!” Screwball said as she took the human’s hand lightly in her mouth, dragging her towards one of the halls.

“And don’t be afraid to use the wardrobe room!” the Guardian called after the two. “Take whatever you like and get out of those rags!”

“Rags? These are my pajamas!” Lean called out, a bit angered that she labeled her uncle’s Christmas gift as rags. Soon they arrived at what looked like the bathroom...more like it was. She was then pushed into the bathroom by the filly and the door shut behind her.

“Don’t take too long!” Screwball called from the other side of the door. “Guardian’s cooking is amazing, so you don’t want it to get cold!” Her hoofsteps retreated away, leaving Lean to her thoughts.

“Well okay then.” She said out loud as she took off her backpack, placing it on the toilet. She started getting undressed and realized something. ‘Do I even have any other clothes?’

She opened the backpack after she took her tank top off, leaving her in her sports bra and pajama pants still on. She saw that it was completely black in it. “You gotta be kidding me. Just like Scott Pilgrim?” She asked out loud, reaching her hand in and feeling for anything that felt like clothes. She felt something and pulled out to see a gown that had a white top, light green skirt and a green bow on the collar of the shirt. She continues searching to find some yellowish-white long socks and pink boots. She also found a pair of circular glasses that went completely around her eyes “Seriously!?” Lean realized that now she was ripping off of another show just because of this.

Lean rolled her eyes as she resumed getting undressed and now she was ready to take a shower or bath. She saw that there was a bathtub instead of the usual shower like she was used to. She decided to go with this and turned the handle that had the letter “H” on it. The water went out the facet and as soon as it hit the white tub, some steam started forming. She placed a hand on the water, feeling that it was more hot than usual, just how she liked it. Awhile later, the tub was filled and she stopped the flow of hot water. She saw that there was a washcloth and bar of soap already set up. Taking her glasses off, she slowly went in the tub and just loved the heat. She took a look at the bar and saw that it was Dove soap. “Awesome. I never tried this bar before.” Lean said out loud as she wet it a little with the cloth and she started lathering the rag.

After a small time skip of bathing, getting dressed and secretly posing and acting like the character she was dressed as, Lean went out the bathroom with the backpack back on; her pajamas and normal glasses in the backpack. She fixed one of the straps on the backpack and something fell out of the slightly opened bag.

“Hmm?” She looked down to see a necklace with a clear gem dangling on the silver chain. She picked it up and looked through the clear gem to see different arrays of colors in it. “Neat.” Lean put it on and went back to finding the kitchen.

It took a little bit of wandering, being that she was in a dimension of infinite space and all, but she was able to find the kitchen without incident. Inside was surprisingly quaint, almost like a kitchen-dining room combo out of the eighties. Even had the same beige coloring. Screwball was setting the small, four seated table while the Guardian herself was at the cooktop stove, stirring a large pot. She noticed Lean walking in and smiled.

“Well don’t you look better? How do you feel, honey?”

“To be honest, refreshed, and a bit awkward.” She answered as she tried to find a good seat in the dining room.

“Oh come now, you’re a welcome guest. No need to feel out of place,” the Guardian waved off. “Now just have a seat. I hope you like spaghetti.”

"I think I'd be okay with that even with my dad being a pasta lover." She said as she sat down on a chair that felt just right.

“Glad to hear it!” The Guardian lifted up a plate in her magic, filling it with the red-sauced noodles before placing it on the table in front of Lean. “Eat up. And there’s plenty more so don’t be afraid to ask for seconds.”

"Uhm, small question. Where are the forks?" She asked as she saw there was no utensils on the table.

“Ooh, right, Screwball’s not used to utensils just yet. That’s entirely my fault, dearie.” She rifled through a nearby drawer before levitating a silver fork over to Lean. “Again, my oopsie.”

"It's fine. No need to somewhat apologize." She smiled a little as she took the fork from her aura, it disappearing when she grabbed it.

The Guardian levitated another plate over to Screwball who happily dug in face first. The elder mare just smiled as she sat down with her own plate and using magic to levitate small coils up to her mouth. Between bites, the Guardian looked to Lean, “So then Leeean, tell us a little about yourself. We’d like to know our new friend a little better.”

"Wait, we're friends? I thought I was only your guest..." Lean said, looking down at her food, gathering a rather large coil around the fork and she put it in her mouth.

“Do you not want us as friends?” Screwball asked after sucking down some noodles. She looked a little upset. “I want to be friends.”

"Th-that's not what I meant by that!" She said after she swallowed her noodles, feeling a bit nervous. "I just assumed that I was nothing but a guest to you. This is mainly how my parents treat guests..." She looked away.

A hoof patted her shoulder, making the girl see the Guardian giving her a soft smile. “Hey now, there’s no reason for you to feel out of place. We want you to feel welcome and at ease around us. I understand your shyness, believe it or not I used to be like that too. But we only want to help you. Just gives us a chance, huh?”

"A-alright. If you say so. Just still on edge with this whole 'finding white doors' thing yet. I'd never guess that I'd be caught in this out of everyone on my planet." She said. She placed another coil of spaghetti in her mouth.

“The universes work in mysterious ways, Lean. You just got lucky,” the Guardian said as she took another bite herself.

"I wouldn't say lucky, but I just somewhat started this awhile ago. Maybe I should give this game of his a chance." Lean said as she tasted the parmesan cheese mixed in the pasta. She liked it, but didn't show it that much.

“That’s what the Guardian has taught me,” Screwball said, licking some sauce from her plate. “You have to make lemonade out of the lemons of life! Maybe turn this game in your favor? If you start having fun with it, then it just becomes something for you to enjoy and might even take some away from your Discord.”

"I can see where you're going at, but I can't ignore that I'm stuck in this game for who knows how long. Away from my friends, family and home." She finished the last of the spaghetti and placed the bowl to the side with the fork in the empty bowl.

“Have you ever thought that maybe that’s his game?” the Guardian proposed.

"What do you mean by that?" Lean raised an eyebrow at the unicorn, not really getting what she was saying.

“Perhaps Discord is doing this because he knows you’ll miss your family. He’s hoping you’ll give up out of despair. That you’ll quit.” She looked directly at Lean. “And that’s precisely what you musn’t do. You have to stay strong, to persevere and keep going until the very end. You need to show that chaos spawn that you won’t be pushed around by him and that you can take anything he throws your way.”

'Except for anything that can physically kill me.' She thought. "Even if I wanted to quit, I can't. Either I proceed into the game or never find my way back. There is no give up button in this game." Lean looked away. "So...are we almost there? Not that I want to leave as soon as possible." She asked, then added.

“Oh, we’ve been in the planet’s orbit for some time now. I just preferred to make sure you had a nice hot meal in you before letting you continue your journey. You enjoyed it, of course?”

"Well it would be rude to lie and say I hated it." Lean joked. "It was wonderful, thank you." She smiled a little. "Where will we land on the planet?" She asked another question.

“The door’s being guarded near one the largest shrines. Thankfully, it’s near the capitol building of the central city. Little bit of begging and charming and we should be getting you to that door before it’s time for tea.”

"Central of what city exactly?" She raised an eyebrow.

“They call it,” the Guardian then proceeded to make a series of clicking sounds. “Roughly translated to ‘Land of the Queen’. It’s a nice city for a planet as young as this. They’ve just come into their renaissance actually. Should be a lot of fun! Now, up up everyone! Let’s go meet the locals!” The Guardian got up out of her chair, leaving the room, but not before levitating her plate into the sink. “Don’t dilly dally~!”

"Uhm..." Lean said as she got off the table and put her plate in the sink. 'I still don't know exactly where I'm being dropped off to, but since the door is on this planet, I must find it.' She thought, a determined look shown on her face a second before she followed the Guardian out the dining room.

Screwball ran past her, nearly toppling her over. “Race ya there, slowpoke!”

"H-hey! No fair! You almost knocked me down!" Lean shouted as she ran after the small filly.

The two raced through the hall, both entering the main room at the same time.

“I won!” Screwball cheered.

"Again, no fair. You have four legs while I have two." Lean said as she pouted like a little girl, it looking cute, but not as cute as any filly.

“Now, now, get along you two,” the Guardian laughed as she figured out the correct sequence to land the TARDIS. The whole room shook a little, staggering Lean only for a moment before everything settled. “Ah, we’ve arrived! Who’s ready for an alien world, hmm?”

"Alien how?" Lean asked, raising her hand a little. "I mean, in what way." She corrected herself.

“Hmm… you don’t have a problem with bugs, do you?” the Guardian asked as she stood by the closed door.

"Well, this is how I feel about bugs," She said before opening the backpack and literally going inside and zipping herself inside. The whole time saying "Nope" every step she took.

Screwball picked up the backpack and turned it upside down, shaking it violently until Lean fell out in a pile. “Come on, it’s just bugs. It can’t be that bad.”

"Bad? Bad!? I HATE bugs! Especially Spiders and Centipedes!" She said as she took the backpack and hugging it tightly, both arms and legs. In other world, the koala hug.

“Now Lean,” the Guardian scolded softly. “The Chitinites are a very intelligent species and it would be rude to simply hate them on appearance. Besides, you have to get that next door, right?”

"Humph. I hate it when other people are right." She looked away with an angered look. "And it's not my fault that a spider jumped in my eye and nearly blinded me with one eye thanks to the bite." She said.

“That’s not a bug,” the time mare pointed out. “A spider is an arachnid, completely different species. Now stop being such a speciest and come along. We’ve a got a door to find.”

"It doesn't matter! That traumatized me and now I don't like bugs. Not even crickets in a pet shop used for food." She crossed her arms.

The Guardian sighed softly. “I didn’t want to do this, but you leave me with no choice.”

"D-do what?" Lean started backing away with a hint of fear. 'What is she gonna do with me?' She thought.

Her horn lit with a golden aura that appeared around Lean as well, lifting her into the air. “Now come along, we have work to do,” the Guardian said as Lean started to float after her and Screwball to the outside world.

"No! I don't wanna!" She grabbed the door frame of the TARDIS and it stopped her from being levitated any further.

“Come on, Leanie!” Screwball whined. “We have to get you to that door and the only way is through the city! It’s gonna be fine!”

"No! I don't want to see a single bug eye not an antenna touching me to feel what I look like! Why can't we teleport or knock me out till we're there?" I shouted as I was starting to lose my grip.

“If you keep acting like this, I swear I will teleport you into the slums and leave you to rot,” the Guardian threatened.

Lean whimpered as she lost her grip and was now hugging her legs to keep herself sane. She was lifted out of the TARDIS and into the bright lights of the city. When her vision cleared, for mile around she could see different forms of bug ponies. There were some that looked like cockroaches, others that appeared to be related to beetles, and even a few that appeared to look like changelings roaming around. She could also notice that the city walls all looked like the walls of a beehive, being opened out to large cubbies or just a simple hexagonal pattern. But, try as she might, Lean couldn’t take her eyes away from the millions of insects buzzing and walking around her.

The Guardian took in a deep breath before letting it out slowly. “Ahh, you smell that? Pure honey. Chitin is famous for making the best honey this side of the galaxy. One taste will make even the coldest of hearts melt.”

Lean was gripping her legs to the point where she might break them herself. She saw all these creatures that seemed related to bugs. The Changelings didn't really phase her, but the others did. She tried to drown out all the bug-like sounds some would make, but it was no use. 'Is this what hell feels like..?' She thought as she felt she would snap at any second.

“Now… how to get to the shrine?” the mare mused, looking around. “Oh, it’s been so many years, I don’t think I can remember how to get there.”

Lean felt as if she might cry in fear. She was too occupied in trying to keep her fear level low that she didn't see that some of the bug-like creatures look at her with curiosity, never seeing something like her before.

“Well, why don’t we just ask for directions?” Screwball suggested, running over to one of the ogling bugs. “Hi there! We’re trying to get to the local shrine. Can you show us how to get there?”

“Oh sure!” the big, gruff cockroach pony said in what could be called a New York accent. “See the big ol’ palace in the distance?” he asked, pointing at the large golden spire in the distance. “It’s just a few blocks north of there. But be careful, lotsa strange things been goin’ on around there. Best o’ luck, lil’ one.”

“Thanks!” Screwball said with a wave before relaying the information to the Guardian.

“Ah! That’s right, silly me.” She lightly tapped a hoof to the side of her head. “Well, let’s get going before we have to get a defibrillator for Leeeean.” The two took off in a trot, Lean following behind closely in her levitation field.

After awhile of keeping herself calm, she started to get a bit bored over floating right behind the two equines. “Uhm...Guardian?” Lean called out to the unicorn.

“Hmm? Yes, honey?”

“Can...can you let me go now?” She asked, looking everywhere but at the mare.

“Are you going to run off or have a panic attack if I do?”

“... No?”

“Are you asking me or telling me?”

“... I don’t know now.” She said a bit confused.

The Guardian giggled a little. “Well, when you figure it out, we can discuss me putting you down. Until then, you’ll stay right where you are.”

“But it’s so boring in a levitational grip...fine I guess I won’t run away…” Lean said as she crossed her arms. ‘Maybe I can make another dive into the backpack again.’ She thought.

“Alright, but any funny business and I’ll strap you to my back. Do you understand me, missy?” the Guardian said as if she was speaking to someone even younger than Screwball.

“Yes mom.” She said sarcastically.

The mare’s magic slowly set Lean back on the ground, leaving her as soon as her feet touched down. “Hmph, keep up that kind of attitude and I just might keep you.” The Guardian laughed to herself, making sure her two “children” were following close. “Now don’t wander off and don’t try to make any quick movements. It will really set off the locals.”

“Of course mother. I would never disobey you.” Lean was in her sarcastic mood and sometimes it would be hard for her to cut it out. She was acting like one of those sweet school girls that was raised in a catholic school. Lean should know, she was in one for awhile.

“Now now, none of that then. I’m only trying to make sure none of us get eaten.”

“Eaten?!” Screwball nearly shouted.

“Shh,” the Guardian encouraged, making sure no one was looking their way. “Yes. That’s how the law works around here. You break it, you get eaten. A strict system, yet rather fair… in their eyes anyway.”

“And you thought my reaction was too much. If I knew that beforehand, I would not be here.” She said as she tried to hide her ever growing fear as the grip on her backpack strap tightened.

“The Chitinians are a very nice people, you just have to respect their culture is all. And Lean, if you jump into the backpack, we’re leaving you here with the bugs.”

“If you leave me here and some bug-thing touches me, let’s just say that there won’t be anymore bugs… And I’m not joking about that.” Lean said as she pulled out a medal bat from the backpack, wielding it like a sword with two hands.

“They have laser technology, you know,” the Guardian smirked. “I admire the spunk, but you’re rather outmatched. Just stay close and try not to make any insulting comments or eye contact, alright? Then, hopefully, we can avoid any trouble altogether.”

“As long as my sarcasm doesn’t come along. I think I’ll be okay around that. But I still need something to keep me from freaking out.” She shivered a little.

“You want my stuffed animal?” Screwball asked. “Fluffy always keeps me from feeling scared.”

“Fluffy?” Lean raised an eyebrow at the filly.

She took off her cap, reaching into it and pulling out a stuffed griffon. “Fluffy! My dad gave it to me before he was put away. You can use him if you want to.”

“Are you sure you’d want me to have your plushie for awhile?” She asked.

“If it makes you feel better, I don’t mind. I do want him back though, so be careful with him.” She replaced the cap on her head before holding Fluffy out to Lean.

“You’re asking me to be careful? Please,” She waved her hand. “I’m so careful that it’s a bit difficult for me to crack an egg; making sure no shells get mixed in.” Lean smirked as she kneeled down and gently took the plushie from the earth filly’s hooves. When she stood up, she had the stuffed griffon in a small embrace.

“Yes, yes,” the Guardian interrupted dragging, the two a little with magic. “That’s all well and good, but we do have to keep up. We don’t know for sure if that door of yours has a time limit. For all we know it could disappear in minute and then appear on another planet half way across the universe. I, for one, would prefer to not have to chase a door.”

“Don’t jinx it!” Lean shouted a little, the small hug on the griffon toy being a little tighter.

“Calm down,” the Guardian soothed. “We’ll be there soon…” She was cut off as several Chitin guards, each one a different species all clad in pearly white armor, cut off their path. “...enough. Oh, well… this isn’t going to be good.”

‘I fucking told you.’ Lean thought as she was also thinking of many ways to whack these bug creatures.

“My apologies, ladies,” the lead one, a changeling wearing a several golden medals along his armor, spoke in a soft, deep voice. “But this area is restricted to only the highest authority. I cannot allow you to pass.”

“Oh, why didn’t you say so, my good man?” The Guardian chuckled a little, trying to keep herself from showing any nervousness. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her black billfold, showing the cardholder to the guard. “I’ve got clarification and permission to enter this site. Now, if you would please.”

“Hmm… this paper is blank,” the guard retorted.

“Uh oh,” Screwball muttered, the Guardian wishing she could vocalize the same feelings.

“I’m sorry, but you will all have to come with me for questioning.”

“But… but...” Lean groaned as she felt the door might move to a different planet by the time they arrived to where the door is located. She covered her eyes with her hands as the plushie was hanging on her arm… somewhat.

The Guardian took one look at Lean and knew what needed to be done. “Look, I apologize for the deception, but my friend here needs to reach that strange door in your shrine. It’s her only way to getting back home; to get back to her family. Please, just allow us through so we can help her.”

The guard captain took a look into the mare’s determined eyes before sighing. “I’m going to get in a lot of trouble for this. Stand down men, let them through.” Just as their eyes brightened, he continued, “If you’re lying to me, I’ll have you all eaten for dinner. Understood?”

“Understood,” the Guardian said with a slight bow. “And thank you, sir. You and your kind heart.”

He blushed a little. “Just go before I change my mind.”

They all took the hint and ran past the guards.

“That went a lot smoother than the other times,” Screwball pointed out.

“What do you mean by ‘Other times’?” Lean asked as she ran beside the small filly.

“We usually get captured or have to run with bullets and/or lasers flying over our head.”

“Now is not the time to reminisce,” the Guardian said, hoping that her companion’s words didn’t leave the wrong impression with Lean.

‘Good lordy lue that the door wasn’t in any of those planets.’ She thought as she kept on running, the plush still on her arm.

Up the stone steps the ran, not even bothering to notice the deepening blackness of the stones around them. Every few feet they passed the stones got darker and darker as the hurried deeper into the old shrine, not even knowing they were running over history. The farther they went, the less natural light they possessed as the pathway was slowly enveloped by a long-ago dug tunnel. The ancient walls were covered in markings, runes, and imagery of days long passed.

Lean was the first to see the ever darkening area around them and got a bit scared at the change. But she kept it to herself, knowing that she would have to go through harder and tougher things than changing environments to finish this game of Discord’s.

“Look!” Screwy exclaimed, getting the others’ attentions. Directly up ahead, in the center of a rune marked wall, was a pure white door. On both sides were a pair of massive statues that eerily reminded Lean of Queen Chrysalis.

“Good on you, Screwy!” the Guardian praised. “The door, right as I promised! And would you look at that; being guarded by Chrissie herself. That ol’ girl.”

“Are you serious?” Lean asked as she stared at the statues for awhile. ‘Why are there statues of queen Chrysalis? Is she the ruler of this planet or something?’ She thought as she walked up to the statue. At her regular height, it seemed as if the statue was real, she’ll be looming over her.

“She founded this world,” the Guardian said, admiring the stone changeling. “Thousands of years ago, she and her children crashed on this planet and made it their home. Killed the inhabitants, but that’s in the past really.”

“Is there even any documents on what the previous inhabitants were?” Lean simply asked.

“Oh yeah… just not to the public. Trade secret of the crown really… and me, but a lady doesn’t kiss and tell, after all.”

Lean let out a small growl, for all she knew, this would’ve been another fanfic world that was abandoned and Chrysalis could’ve came out of nowhere to invade it… maybe that’s what happens to cancelled fanfics: invaded and changed by something or someone else.

“Oh now now, it’s the way of life. Some things get conquered, others live on for millennia. Simple as that, life is a strange thing.”

“It doesn’t mean it’s a good thing,” Screwball said as she floated around the head of the statue. “She sounds mean.”

“Well, any conqueror can sound mean. Just depends on how you treat your own subjects I suppose. Quite the motherly figure, she was. Lovely mare; too bad things ended so badly between us. I might still have a warrant out on my head to this day, come to think of it.”

‘I guess things are better left unanswered. At least I found my ticket out of this world. Any longer and I think I might’ve tried to extinct the new inhabitants.’ Lean thought as she looked at the white door. There was a sudden pressure on her left arm, causing her to look down and see Screwball grabbing it.

“Do you have to leave?” she asked with big, sad eyes.

“I’m sorry Screwball, but I gotta go. I need to get back home, no matter how many doors I have to go through. I really wish I could stay, but my friends and family are most likely scared and confused on me being missing so suddenly.” Lean easily petted her mane, avoiding the small propeller hat she wore.

Screwball looked down sadly. “Okay,” she sniffled. “I understand. I’m gonna miss you.”

“Well, I’ll miss you too if I don’t meet with any other Screwballs.” She then gave the small filly a somewhat tight hug. Screwball hugged back, gripping just as tight… though also secretly took back her plushie. After a moment, they separated, leaving Lean to look at the Guardian.

“You’re leaving.” It was not a question.

“Mhm...” Lean nodded, feeling a bit awkward at how blunt she was about that.

Before she could react, the Guardian embraced Lean tightly. “I know it will be hard, but you just have to keep moving. Never lose sight of your goal, ok?”

Lean felt even more awkward at the sudden embrace. “Y-yeah… I know that. And I will miss you even after all this ends sooner or later.” She hugged the Guardian back, though, not as tight as before. “Let’s just hope that Discord won’t make me think this was all a dream or something...” She mumbled that last part. After some time, she broke the hug and just fixed herself up a bit, staying silent for awhile.

“Hold out your hand,” the Guardian requested. Lean did and she pressed something into it. Before Lean could look, “Ah ah ah, no peeking. Just a little gift. If you ever need a bit a quick knowledge or just someone to talk to, use that. As Rainbow has always boasted, ‘I never leave my friends hanging’.” The Guardian sighed, backing away to stand next to Screwball as they both watched Lean. “Be safe, honey. And good luck.”

“...thanks.” Lean smiled as she felt she was gonna cry any moment now. She knew that she would if she didn’t get going sooner or later. She instead placed the unknown item in the pocket of the summer dress she was wearing before turning around and going closer to the white door. She then gripped the white handle of the door and opened it, seeing the familiar white abyss through the door. “I...I won’t forget you two. And I hope that maybe we can meet again in the near future… Bye.” At that, she went through the door as the two ponies watched her walk farther away before the door closed on its own and disappeared out of existence and instead there was an old door that was already there before the white door was,

As Lean disappeared into the next world in her travels, the Guardian and Screwball turned around the head back for the TARDIS. It wasn’t long before Screwball asked the obvious, “So… what did you give her?”

The Guardian let out a light chuckle. “Just a little remembrance, Screwy. Nothing to worry about.” The filly looked at the time lord with narrowed eyes before sighing and relenting. Neither would ever know that at that moment, somewhere off in the vastness of the omniverse, Lean was looking at her new gift, gently caressing the sleek, black gem.

This is another chapter on fanfics-that-are-yet-to-be-created/published-on-this-site by DJSkywalker. Before we even started this, he needed my help with creating it and do we did this chapter together on Google Docs. It was fun and we tried to do the most we could at a certain time and this was 18 pages long in the site. I hope you enjoyed it and that more people may volunteer or accept the invite in making a chapter in this book.

Door 4: Living in Equestria

Additional Category(ies): [Comedy]

Pixel Berry stumbled through the door, and found herself standing, to her slight surprise, in the middle of a dense forest. There was something vaguely familiar about it. Then, she let out a disgruntled sigh.

'Great. Just great. The Everfree Forest. Well, better keep moving, if I don't want a timberwolf to bite my leg off.'

As she trotted along, she thought she could hear voices off to the left. She became suddenly wary, and kept her ears perked. She wasn't alone.

A deep male voice was speaking. He sounded apologetic about something.

“Kids, I’m really sorry. I know that raft took a long time to make, and-”

“It’s not just the raft, Dave,” came a filly's voice, which sounded oddly familiar.

“Huh?”

“We were so excited about being Cutie Mark Crusaders Pirates,” came another filly's voice.

“But we almost get all of us and you killed, lose the raft, and didn’t even find any treasure,” said yet another filly.

An even higher and squeakier voice sighed sadly.

“Aw, girls...” said the male voice, sympathetically.

Pixel paused. There was something very familiar about those fillies' voices, even from a distance. She peered around a thick tree, curious. Five figures were walking past slowly and dejectedly. One of them, easily distinguishable even from a distance, was a six-foot human male. He had short black hair and a mild, friendly face. He wore glasses, a T-shirt, jeans, sneakers, and, oddly enough, a tri-corner pirate’s hat. Walking with him were four fillies: Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and Dinky. All four of them were wearing bandanas around their heads, and all of them, including the human, were wearing belts with wooden swords.

Pixel gaped. She couldn't believe her eyes. This was a scene straight out of Living in Equestria, which, despite over 100 chapters, was still ongoing! That was the human, Dave, who'd made best friends with Pinkie Pie when he first arrived, with no memory of how he got to Equestria! And now here he was, with the Cutie Mark Crusaders, returning from their failed attempt at being pirates, their raft having been wrecked in the forest's rapids. This was too good to miss.

The five walked on in silence for a time, Pixel doing her best to keep up while staying out of sight, the better to see what was going on, Then Dave said, in a reasonable tone,

“Playing pirates is fun, but do you really want to make a living sailing for weeks, maybe even months on end in a boat, just to go tramping around in the hot sun through sand and jungles searching for treasure that might not even be there?”

The four fillies turned to look at him. Pixel privately agreed with his perspective.

“If you ask me,” said the human, “I say we leave the dangerous treasure questing to ponies like Daring Do. Besides, isn’t it more fun to be able to hear about those stories than to blindly fall into dangers like that ourselves?”

The four looked at each other, then back at their human friend. Finally, they smiled.

“Yeah, you’re right, Dave,” said Scootaloo.

“It was a good try, though,” said Sweetie Belle.

“Yeah. It was kinda fun, wasn’t it?” Dave asked.

“It may be something to scratch off the list,” said Apple Bloom, “but we’re not gonna pack it in yet!”

“A Crusader’s job is never done!” squeaked Dinky.

“You said it, sis,” said Scootaloo, grinning.

Their gloom and misery was long forgotten. Now they were happy and peppy. It brought a smile to Pixel's face to see such an adorable sight, as well as to remember that, in this universe, Scootaloo and Dinky were sisters by adoption.

“That’s the spirit,” said Dave, beaming. “Now what are we?”

“The Cutie Mark Crusaders!” chorused the fillies.

“And we’re not afraid of anything, are we?”

“No, sir!”

At that precise moment, Pixel accidentally brushed up against a bush, making it rustle. She winced, especially when Dave yelled and jumped about a foot in the air. He whipped around, pointing his wooden sword directly at her. She yelped and raised both forehooves.

"Whoa! Don't stab me!"

Dave stared, bewildered, sword still extended. The four fillies were goggling at Pixel. No one spoke for a time. Pixel still couldn't believe she was face-to-face with a character from a fic she'd read...Then, Dave broke the silence.

"What were you doing behind that bush?"

"I wasn't spying!" Blurted Pixel, hastily.

Dave raised an eyebrow.

"I never asked if you were," He said, dryly.

"Oh," Said Pixel, her cheeks reddening. "Er, right."

Dave finally lowered his sword and adjusted his glasses, still looking a bit perplexed.

"Who are you?" He asked,

"Pixel Berry, though some people call me Lean. And you're Dave, right?"

Dave's mouth fell open in shock.

"How do you know my name?!" He asked.

"Err, you look like a Dave," Said Pixel, quickly, realizing she might bewilder him all the more with the full truth. "So, were you guys playing pirates?"

"Yes," Said Dave, still looking perplexed, though he was recovering slightly. "We were 'Cutie Mark Crusaders' Pirates."

"Emphasis on 'were'," Said Scootaloo, ruefully.

"Aren't you a little old to be a Crusader?" Pixel asked Dave, though she knew full well the circumstances of his initiation.

"I don't think age really matters," Said Dave, unabashed, holding his sword aloft. "All that matters is spirit and dedication. As a Crusader, it's my duty to help these fillies get their cutie marks!"

"And for us to help him get his!" said Sweetie Belle.

Pixel noticed that Dave looked a bit awkward at this, as he rubbed the back of his head. She knew why: he'd never told them humans didn't get cutie marks.

"Er, yeah, right, Sweetie Belle," He said, then cleared his throat. "Anyway, Pixel, what are you doing out in the middle of the Everfree Forest?"

"It's a long story," Said Pixel. "To make it short, I stepped through a door, and ended up in the middle of the forest. It's not the first time it's happened. Today."

She knew she must sound crazy, and wondered, for a split second, if Dave and these girls thought she was. However, Dave smiled kindly.

"You're not the only one who's come from home to an unknown place without knowing why," He said, gesturing to himself with his thumb. "Small world, huh? At least you know how."

Pixel nodded sympathetically. She knew what it was like for Dave right now: away from home, not being able to contact his family and friends. He'd sent a letter to them by Twilight's magic, and that, plus being surrounded by all of his pony friends, had eased his suffering slightly, but he was still longing for the chance to return...

"I'm sorry," She said.

"It's all right," Said Dave. "I've got a good friend looking into it. In the meantime, I get to spend time with my new pony friends, like these little rascals."

He bent down and pulled the four fillies into a group hug, two on each side, making them squeal and giggle. Pixel grinned at the adorable sight. He really seemed like the sort of person you'd want to have as a friend. Chancing a look to the right, she gasped. Another door stood open, as if beckoning to her. The five Crusaders seemed to have spotted it too. They gazed, open-mouthed, most likely having never seen a door appearing in mid-air, attached to nothing.

"I'd better go," Said Pixel. "It was very nice to meet you all. I hope you find your way home soon, Dave."

Dave wrenched his eyes away to look at Pixel again.

"Same to you, Pixel. Take care of yourself."

"Bye!" Said the four Crusaders together.

"Goodbye, little ones," Said Pixel.

She took off at a gallop, and was soon over the door's threshold. Just as it began to swing closed behind her, she heard Scootaloo say,

"Well, that was weird. And just after we'd seen a sea serpent with two different mustache styles..."

Author's Note

This chapter was created by Blazewing. To be honest, his fanfic was the first one I ever read on this sight... EVER. Before I even made an account for this website. I had such a blast reading his fic twice and my favorite chapter out of all of them is the one where Trixie messes with David's voice as a magic trick. Anyways, hoped you liked it as much as I did! ^^

Bonus Door: The Mane Attraction

Additional Category(ies): None

I opened the door to the next world to see that it was nightfall where I was. I also noticed that I was in the stairway entrance to a trailer. Before I could question on where I was, I heard the sound of sobbing. I looked to see what I could tell was Countess Coloratura, or Rara for short as Applejack called her. I also noticed that she was by herself. ‘Maybe Applejack already talked to her…but I guess it didn't work.’ I thought as I made my way down the trailer stairs, noticing that I was a pony this time. ‘Good thing too. Imagine her reaction when a hairless ape approaches her out of nowhere.’ I thought as I slowly came closer to her, trying to stay silent. But I placed a hoof on a dry leaf that was apparently loud enough for her to turn her head to see me.

“O-oh, hello there. I'm sorry if you have to see me like this. Just a bit down before a big show.” She said, moving her head back to the mirror, starting to clean her face with a small handkerchief…or was it hoofkerchief in Equestria?

“Well, it's fine. But, why are you so upset? Now you can be yourself on stage now. Are you worried about something?” I asked as I slowly came closer.

“Yeah. I'm just scared that maybe all I've been through being a star now ruined my voice. With all those techno spells that made my voice sound different. What if it's permanent? What is I can't sing again? What if-”

I cut her off before she went into a total breakdown. “Hey, hey, hey. It's okay. I know that whatever spell they did to change your voice won't be permanent. You can hear yourself speak the same, so that just means your singing voice is the same that everypony loves. And even if these spells somehow hurt your voice, your friends will never think of you any different.” I explained as I looked at her though the mirror. I even use my hoof to wipe a small tear on her cheek. “Just sing with all your heart, and I bet that nothing will go wrong. You'll see that this is who you are, and this is what you were born to do.” I smiled as I wanted to wrap a hoof around her, but I was still a stranger to her.

After a moment of silent and her face showing that she was processing what I told her, she showed a warm smile before she hugged me with both her hooves. I was surprised, but soon put my hooves around her as well, the warm embrace seeming to feel more warm than any regular hug.

“Now, I may not be here to notify you, but there are some ponies wanting to hear you sing.” I smiled as I broke the hug.

“Uhm, I know we just met, but do you mind walking with me to the back of the stage?” She asked.

“Of course, what are friends for?” I smiled.

“What is your name anyways?” She asked.

“It's Le-I mean Pixel. Pixel Berry.” I quickly caught myself before I told her my human name.

“Well okay Le-I mean Pixel. Pixel Berry.” She joked. “Would you like to sit in the front of the stage with my friends?” She asked as she was halfway up the stairs.

“Oh, sure. I guess I'll just leave you on the stage then. Good luck.” I smiled as I started backing away.

“Hope you'll like what you see.” She said as she stood to what I could tell from the darkness was a piano.

I nodded before I made my way to the front of the stage as I sat a good distance away from the mane six and the Cutie Mark Crusaders so they won't notice me.

The spotlight then turned on and it was shining at Twilight as she announced Rara’s big concert. The curtains moved and Rara said a few words, even saying Applejack’s nickname and most of the ponies were confused on the name. Soon she started playing the piano and then she started singing.

The whole audience was silent and bit by bit, some light from some unicorn horns were lighting up in the crowd. Soon I started doing the same and the nice purple pixelated glow of my aura was shining and I saw the silhouette of an orchestra was in the back as she kept on singing.

When she hits the high notes my fur would stand stiff and I started tearing up as well, seeing Applejack’s eyes get watery as well. And as the song was going and she sung the second verse, Rara’s cutie mark glowed and shined. The crowd cheered as did I.

When she sung the last note in her song, everypony cheered, even me. As she was making her small speech on how a close friend helped her find her real way to stardom, I noticed a white door was on the side of the stage. ‘I'm guessing that it was a storage room door before.’ I thought as I started making my way to the crowd. As I walked through the many mares and stallions, I heard the old Equestria song that was being sung by both Countess Coloratura and the CMC. I saw Rara’s makeup set and I thought of something to do. I smiled at the thought and looked through my bag. I then levitated a sheet of paper and some art equipment.

~

Rara soon was able to leave her new fans and went to the back of the stage. She thought that maybe Pixel would be there waiting for her to congratulate her for her great performance. But she was a bit upset that she wasn't there. She sighed and placed her head on her makeup table, hearing her head thump in it and something light slip off it. She opened her eyes to see what it was and looked to the floor to see a parchment on the floor. She saw the familiar symbol of Pixel’s cutie mark on it. She opened it as soon as she grabbed it from the floor and read the letter.

Dear Rara,

I'm sorry that I couldn't stay to congratulate you on your fantastic performance. It brought me to tears. I hope that from now on your career will be much more than you would ever dream for. And let's just hope the paparazzi won't shower you in questions so quickly.

Anyways, I'm happy that you're happy about your life now. I wish I could stay, but some things came and I had to leave. Here's a small thing I made for you. Take this as a small memory of one of your biggest changes in life.

~Pixel Berry

Rara smiled as she saw the small folded sheet of paper and unfolded it to see a beautiful drawing of her singing on the stage, playing the piano with happy tears in her eyes and her cutie mark glowing. She brought the picture with her in the trailer and pinned it next to a old photo of her and Applejack as fillies in Camp Friendship. The two hugging and smiling.

Author's Note

Hello Everypony! Pixel here and I just saw the recent episode "The Mane Attraction" and I automatically fell in love with it. The song, the ponies and even the manager made the episode worth watching. I would say this episode was just as great as "Crudaders of the Lost Mark" but I'm still unsure about that. Anyways, I hope you like this bonus chapter and many others in the future.

Bonus Door: Humble Discord

Additional Category(ies): None

Pixel Berry opened and closed the door as she entered a room. It was modestly sized, and immediately confusing to look at. So jarring it was that she considered running back into the previous room for a breather. The floor was a thin green carpet with a slightly elegant design that complemented the ceiling of blue tile. The walls that separated the ceiling and floor were different in color and material. In front of her, an upside down stone staircase running ceiling to floor blocked the wall and window behind it. The left wall was made of a dark brown wood that hosted the front door and two windows garding it. The door was rounded, whimsical, and colored yellow with a purple frame.

The right wall looked like liquid cheese or perhaps whisked eggs, yet the room smelled like cherries. A flight of grey stone stairs led from the wall to the ceiling, and the kitchen doorway was a square wood frame made of cut logs and furnished with two wilting flowers growing on the bridge. Left of the door was a pass through window for the living room and kitchen.

To her right was a normal looking cabinet in a light shade of purple holding a mixed manner of items. To the left sat a purple and orange couch with a lamp whose body was made of spheres. The white coffee table in front of the couch had a hole cut in it far reducing its practicality. There was more detail, but Pixel Berry was not about to pay the room any more heed.

There was no door immediately standing before her, so the challenge here was to find it. Pixel glanced around the room and caught her gaze on the window. She braved a peek outside and saw some kind of otherworldly landscape that seemed to be suspended in open space. Much like the house, the world outside it had no rhyme or reason, and it would be better to mind and soul to search the house before going outside.

Pixel tore her curiosity from the window and scanned the room again. She trotted forwards into the kitchen, the eerie quiet of the building eating away at her bravery. She didn't know what she should be hearing, or if noise would remedy the odd atmosphere emanating from the walls.

The kitchen itself was only slightly less chaotic than the living room, which in retrospect was a blessing in itself. Cabinets were everywhere. On the ceiling, embedded into the floor, and randomly grouped across the walls. The walls were turquoise, the ceiling was white tile, and the carpet continued into the kitchen. The oven was mounted on the wall and clearly upside down, the fridge looked like something had picked it up and bent it into a shallow crescent. Stuck on the fridge was a toaster, several odd looking utensils, a picture of a tropical island, and some pasta art of Fluttershy. The only normal looking thing was the sink mounted in a small patch of cabinets mounted to the floor like cabinets should be.

“Hello, there!” Greeted a cheerful and smooth voice. It was deep and low in tone and it made the fur on Pixel’s spine shivered. “How did you get in here?” Pixel Berry looked for the source of the voice, and found it on the fridge. The pasta art of Fluttershy was smiling and blinking. “Are you here to help Discord?” Her-His?-spaghetti mane was dyed pink like the real pony, and his/her roulette eyes were dyed blue. The body was outlined with tortellini noodles, and shaded in with manicotti and ziti tubes. Farfalle butterflies were appropriately dyed and used as the cutie mark.

Before Pixel Berry could respond the sink started to violently rattle, and unseat itself from the slot in the counter. Pop! Discord’s head poked out the spout. “Hello, Berry!” He greeted maliciously. “I was just taking a swim!” The sink vibrated some more, and the rest of Discord came forth from the sink in a sludge until he was splayed out on the floor. All the while, his yellow eyes were fixed on his silent guest. “Have you met Flutter Noodle?” Pixel Berry nodded slowly, her eyes flickering from Discord to the sentient art. “Charming isn't she? I made her during Fluttershy’s arts and crafts Thursday’s!”

The art spoke in that gender opposite Fluttershy voice, “Truth be told I’ve never seen Fluttershy or her house, the only life I’ve known has been stuck on a fridge!”

Pixel Berry looked back at Discord and jumped a foot back when she saw him standing in normal form with an old style apron around his waist. “Now, did you come from that white door in my living room?” Pixel nodded again. “Ah! Then look no further! The next door is in this kitchen!” He tapped a bird talon to his chin. “But I can't remember where…” He turned around, bent over, and opened the sink cabinet.

Pixel Berry could see pipes under the sink, but there were so many of them crossing over and under each other that it wasn't clear how such a sink worked. Then again, that was probably the whole point. Discord closed that cabinet and opened one in the ceiling. A chair came down through the door and whacked Discord before he pushed the chair up and slammed the door shut. “I gotta label that one.” He grumbled while walking towards another cabinet, this one hanging sideways. Inside was a large amount of boxed pasta of various varieties. He looked at Pixel, jabbed a thumb at the fridge, and whispered. “I’m building her a new body.” The cabinet was quietly closed.

Next he tried the fridge. “I probably kept it in here.” He opened the door and it swung to the left, blocking Pixel’s view on what was inside. “Zuul?” He asked. “Could you ask Michael Jackson if he’s seen a white door in there?”

From the fridge came a demonic growl. “There is no white door, only Zuul!”

Pixel Berry could see Discord raise an eyebrow. “Where’s Jackson?”

“Gozer’s out gambling.” The voice answered rather casually.

“Ah!” Discord rolled his eyes. “Well,” There was a clunking sound. “Thanks, Zuul.”

“No problem.”

Discord shut the fridge with a quarter carton in his paw, with a snap of talons a glass appeared in midair and allowed itself to levitate until Discord grabbed it. When he poured the black liquid into the glass Berry could see the carton was labeled ‘Liquid Memes’. “You wanna glass?” Discord asked, and Pixel shook her head in no.

“Having trouble?” Asked Noodleshy. “I think you put it in the pantry.”

Discord slithered over to the wall opposite of Noodleshy where a frying pan looked to be glued to the wall. He grabbed the handle and turned the whole pan like a door handle. The wall panel swung open revealing a cabinet stocked with pans and pots of various sizes and shapes. Pixel Berry frowned. There was no door to be seen. Discord stepped to the side of the door and presented it to Pixel. “Here it is!” Pixel Berry saw that while one side of the door was wood paneled, the other side that Discord presented was white and plain, with a familiar door knob on the right side.

Pixel Berry smiled and approached the door. She looked up to Discord and opened her mouth to say, “Thank you.” But a talon touched her lips. “Dont thank me!” Discord interrupted. “Who am I to deny your journey across time, space, and the internet? I would never be able to live with myself otherwise!”

Pixel sighed and settled for giving Discord her warmest smile of appreciation before opening the door and stepping through.

When Pixel shut the door behind her Discord closed his pantry while Noodleshy asked innocently. “Discord? You refer to me as a girl, but why do I sound like a man?”

Door 5: Elsa's Snowdrop (Part 1)

Additional Category(ies): [Romance]

Upon entering the next door, I found herself surrounded by a forest in what appeared to be a mountain. Taking a sniff of the air, I guess that I was also near the ocean with the salty smelly air.

“Now where am I?” However, when I reached for my saddle bag, I realized that I was still a pony. “Well, guess this is a pony world. Although, where in Equestria is there a mountain forest near the sea?” I would have continued on. Talking to myself till I found somepony. If I hadn’t heard a roar in the distance.

A moment later, one of the tree’s in front of me was pushed out of the way, as a gigantic snowman gazed down at me.

“AAAHH!” I screamed, falling onto my hunches. Stumbling backwards. All the while, my life began to flash before my eyes. Unfortunately, it wasn’t of anything pleasant.

Instead, as the beast loomed closer, I was reminded of a time when bullies would circle up on me at school. Not for any reason in particular even, but just because it was fun. Then, there was that one conversation I had with my dad prior to all of this…

****

“Now, honey,” my dad asked, looking at my pony plushies, “don’t you think you’re getting too old for that?”

****

“Okay, okay, you found me!” A stranger’s voice shouted out from behind me.

Perplexed, but relieved to see the snow beast backing up, I looked over to see a smaller snowman jump out from behind a rock.

I recognized the little snowman immediately.

“Alright, now it’s my turn,” Olaf said jumping up and down.

Meanwhile, I was lost for words. Not so much of the living snowmen though. Even killer ones would have just been so-so at this point. However, the fact that these two had nothing to do with My Little Pony caught me off guard. Not that my Frozen fangirl wasn’t fangasming, but still. So what the heck—

“Oh, hey,” Olaf said, having noticed me, “didn’t see you there. You lost….” He look to my horn and gasped. “It’s another pony!”

I blinked. “Wha—”

“Is it really necessary to make such a mess?” Another, somewhat, familiar voice shouted in the distance. Then, said voice slowly trotted past the trees, to reveal none other, that the fan created pony: Snowdrop.

“Oh!” I said out loud. “So this is some kind of cross-over universe?”

Snowdrop paused in midair as she looked with her pale eyes in my direction. “Huh? Sorry there, miss.” She began to fly closer. “You okay, we didn’t mea—”

“Hey, Snowdrop, it’s another talking pony. Just like you!” Olaf explained. “Only it’s got a horn on it’s head instead of wings!”

Eyes widen, hoof almost having brushed on my face, Snowdrop landed and flinched back. “Oh… Um, a… um, er, pony?” She looked away from me.

I sighed. “Yeah.” Standing up, I took a step forward. As I did so, my nervous sigh turned into a wide grin looking at Snowdrop.

Truth be told, Snowdrop has always been one of my favorite pony characters. Cannon, OC, or otherwise. Heck, I even had a Snowdrop plushie back home that I would curl up with when I had a really bad day. Which, thinking about it, happened quite a lot back home.

I shook my head. “Well, it’s nice to meet you, Snowdrop. I’m a huge fan.”

Snowdrop blinked and looked curiously at me. “You are?”

I was about to answer, when a thought occurred to me.

Maybe, just maybe, saying right away that this world was likely just a figment of some guy’s imagination and love of a cartoon was a bad idea. Besides, if I knew Snowdrop like I think I did, I didn’t want to startle her too soon with such heavy knowledge.

“I mean,” Snowdrop said, noticing my pause, “I guess it’s nice to have a fan of my work.” She rubbed her neck. “But really, it’s no big deal. Most of the weather ponies just mass produce my designs.”

“Um…”I thought, before an idea struck me. "Oh yeah, I mean, back in… I always did admire your snowflakes. And how you inspired Princess Luna despite your handicap, that was amazing.”

Snowdrop smiled at me. “Thanks… Didn’t get as many compliment as you would think. It’s nice to be noticed. Always happy to hear that I could make at least one pony smile.”

‘Oh you have no idea,’ I thought. Then caught myself once I realized how long I had been staring into Snowdrop’s eyes. Not that she could see, but it still felt rude.

“Well,” Olaf interrupted, placing himself between us, “it’s nice to meet you…”

“Huh? Oh, um, Pixel.”

Olaf smiled and spread out his twig arms. “Hi, I’m Olaf and I like warm hugs.”

Unable to hold it in, I let out a fan squeal. “I know!” I said as I hugged back.

“Um, anyways,” Snowdrop interrupted, “why don’t you come with us back to the castle? I’m sure Elsa wouldn’t mind a little more company. She’s also looking for a way to… Get me home as well.”

I raised an eyebrow at Snowdrop’s pause, but shrugged it off. Knowing that sounded like my best option for the moment. “Sure, be happy to.”

*****

We made our way towards Elsa’s castle in silence for awhile. Never talking, always moving, while I did my best to keep away from Marshmallow. Even though I was aware that it wasn’t going to kill me, a part of me just couldn’t get over how he remained of some of my sadder moments in life with his massive bulk.

Truth be told, I was rather short back home. Not dwarfish, but small enough to always feel insignificant next to everyone else. Then, to make it worse, it seemed as if everyone taller just wanted me to grow up. As if it was my fault I still like toys and couldn’t stand my ground when someone found something funny to taunt me with.

The older I got, the worse things it seemed to get.

At least with this little adventure were proving to be a nice escape. Once I got over the fact that I wasn’t going to die, I had the best laugh I had since… well, in a long time.

“You okay?” Snowdrop asked, a bit closer than I would have liked.

“Oh, um… Yeah! To… Totally. I mean, we much further?”

Snowdrop tapped on her hooves a few times. Supposedly counting or something “I think so. Maybe 100 more wing flaps and—”

“Hey!” Olaf shouted ahead of us. “The castle’s right over here.”

“Oh,” Snowdrop nodded, “well then.” She held out a hoof to me. “Shall we?”

I looked quizzically at the hoof, until I realized that she might have wanted someone to lead her inside. “Um, sure thing.” I took her hoof, and found an intense heat radiating from it into me. However, before I could walk forward, she lifted me off the ground and dragged me along.

“Whoa!” I cried, as we zoomed out of the forest.

“Sorry!” Snowdrop answered back as we fly by some people till we reached one of the castle’s back doors. “To fast?”

“No… No!” I responded, brushing myself from those flowers she pulled me through. “I mean… geez, you’d think after being on a TARDIS I could handle that.”

She tilted her head at me. “A TARDIS?”

I blinked. “Oh right! Twelfth century or something for both worlds. I’ll explain in a bit. Right now, you mentioned Elsa?” I felt as if talking to Elsa was the first step in me finding the next door.

“Of course,” Snowdrop nodded, opening the castle’s door. “You’ll really like her. She can be a bit…”

“Overbearing?” Olaf questioned right behind us.

Snowdrop shrugged. “She means well.”

I almost answered before I heard a rustle from behind us. Turning, I saw Marshmallow sulk back into the forest.

“Oh don’t worry about him.” Olaf assured me. “He just likes his alone time.”

‘Story of my life.’ I thought, thinking back to all those nights alone in my room… Rather than joining any clubs because I was afraid of ridicule. Or because I preferred to read fanfictions instead of join a sports team.

No, I mean, it wasn’t as if I didn’t have any friends. We just didn’t hang out anywhere aside from school.

“Hey, Snowdrop, who’s you’re friend?” Someone said as I was brought to attention.

We had walked inside the castle for a little while. If my limited knowledge of the movie was correct, I’d say we were halfway to the courtroom.

“Oh, this is Pixel.” Snowdrop explained. “She came from the same world I did. I’m taking her to meet Elsa.”

Not technically true, but I’m sure I could explain more once I meet the queen.

“Oh,” the woman Snowdrop had been talking too nodded. “Can I get you anything? You need—”

“I’m good.” Snowdrop said rather fast. She grabbed onto my hoof and I felt that warm feeling again. “Come on, let’s not keep her waiting.”

I gawked at Snowdrop’s sudden attitude, but shrugged it off. I knew she was often depicted as being rather prideful in wanting to be independent despite her handicap in many stories. This version seemed to be no exception.

Although, there was that one story about her and Nyx falling in love.

Gosh, they were so adorable together when then cuddle and… Wait, am I blushing?! Oh, I hope she doesn’t see me… Wait, she can’t see me! For that matter, why do I care? Even more so, why do I care!? I don’t have a—

“Elsa?” Snowdrop called out, letting go of my hoof as we entered the throne room. “Elsa, you around?”

No response.

“Oh, hey, Snowdrop.” A familiar voice from the movie, answered. A moment later, I saw it was Anna. She looked over at us after having straightened out a vase. “You’re back sooner than usual. Elsa is… Is…” She stared blankly at me.

I began to nervously look around the room. “Um… Hi.”

“Run.” Olaf whispered to me. However, it proved to be too late.

Eyes widen, face bursting with joy, Anna squeed, and then raced towards me. Crushing me into a hug, she squealed, “Oh my god, it’s a unicorn! Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! You’re so cute!”

As I fought to be free, I felt another set of limbs tug at me as Snowdrop shouted, “Anna, release!”

Before my air supply could run out, Snowdrop was able to loosen me from Anna’s grip. We both stumbled backwards, as Snowdrop landed on her rear as I plopped into her lap.

“You alright?” Snowdrop asked with a groan, trying to get up.

“I…” I began, looking into her eyes.

There was a long pause between us. A moment of awkward silence that shouldn’t have been there. Till at last, Anna was able to break it.

“Sorry there.” She apologized. Although, her wide eyed, girl in love with unicorn face my mom would always tease me about lingered. “In any case, I suppose I better let Elsa know. So, um… You two just wait here. I’m sure she’ll be pleased to meet you.”

I nodded. “Likewise.”

She gave me a smile, and then was off. Leaving me alone with Snowdrop and Olaf, who had been distracted by something, leaving it just me and Snowdrop.

“If it mean anything…” Snowdrop rubbed her chin, then burst out laughing. “Oh no. there’s no question, you got it worse than I did with her.”

I rolled my eyes. “So happy to have made your experience with her less horrify by comparison.” I brushed a piece of mane out of my face.

She giggled some more at me. “Though, trust me, it was quite an experience to be showered with attention.” She then became very silent and look in a different direction.

I frowned. But before I could say anything, I realized that I too would rarely get showered with that kind of love back home. Sure, my parents would, mostly mom, would hug me. However, for the most part, no one had ever shown me that kind of affection. Not that I was possible on Snowdrop’s same level with her disability, but I guess that’s why I was so drawn to her animation. Every time I watched it, I just felt so bad for her, watching most of world push her to the side, only to be loved when she found a purpose.

“Yeah, I know the feeling, Snowdrop. Always feeling like nothing you do if right?”

She twitched her lip. “Colts and fillies always finding a way to get a rise out of you. Even when they could be doing a lot of better.”

I rolled my eyes. “Yeah, and the only escape is in what you love doing.”

My eyes snapped open as she approached me, smiling wide. “Well, don’t worry.” she assured me, lifting up my chin. “I can be your friend if you like.”

“Um…” I stared, mesmerized by her… Wait, I’m not crushing on her, am I?

I’m straight…. Well, as a human anyways. Which currently, I am not. Still, was this real, or just some fan fiction most mares are into mares thing? I never got that, but I suppose that made some sense with Equestria’s… Right, dealing with the possibly beautiful mare holding my chin in front of me. “Ye… Yeah. I mean, I guess. I…” I loosened up. “Yeah, guess we could be friends.” For as long as I’ll be here… Which won’t be that long.

My stomach cramped.

Snowdrop blinked, then quickly lowered her hoof. “Well, I…I.."

“I see you found a new friend, Snowdrop.” A cough interrupted us.

We both tensed and backed away from each other. Then we turned to see Elsa, in all her glory.

“Oh, um, queen Elsa!” I bowed at the famed Disney character, shaking nervously. “It so nice to meet you.”

She chuckled. “Huh, a pony that knows how to address me. Perhaps you could learn a thing or two from him, Snowdrop.”

I nervously looked up to see her smirking at Snowdrop.

Snowdrop facehoofed.

I glared at Elsa. “Um, I’m a mare.”

Elsa blinked at me. “Oh… Oh! I am sorry, little one. I did not mean to offend. I am sure you must have had a rough day.” She made her way to her throne and took a seat. “Please, would you mind telling us a bit more about yourself?”

I opened my mouth to question the ‘us’ part, when a large boulder rolled past me, unfolded into one of those old trolls—that mind wiping grandpa troll who’s name I could never remember—and took a seat next to Elsa.

“Another one?” he said, looking closely at me. Or rather, at my horn. “Next thing you know, they’ll be popping up like weeds. Though, you survive having meet Anna?”

“Hey!” Anna’s voice cried out from somewhere.

We looked around, but when we couldn’t see where she might have been, I answered, “Just barely. If not for Snowdrop here.”

The two of them laughed, before grandpa troll said, “In any case, please, tell us a bit about yourself, dear.”

I took in a deep breath. “Alright. Though, bear with me if this is a bit hard to believe.”

*****

So I told them nearly everything about me. I told them that I was actually a human turned pony—which caused a stranger reaction from Snowdrop that I couldn’t read—and how this happened. Thankfully, Snowdrop was able to back me up a little by explain the chaos god. Nobody in the room seemed to like that one bit. Still, I was able to ease most of them up by explaining how he was sending me on some wild goose chase through many different worlds, and hadn’t interacted with me in any of them.

“So,” Elsa pondered, scratching her chin, “this place is just some stop on your journey?”

I nodded. “More or less. He told me, to keep moving on, I had to find a door that would carry me on.”

“Fascinating.” Grandpa troll nodded. “A whole multiverse of worlds.”

I was also about to explain to them the whole fiction concept, when I noticed that Snowdrop was sulking. I don’t know why, but I decided to leave that little detail out. Besides, even if there world was supposedly fiction in my world, they clearly seemed to exist. Besides, who's to say that, if some scientist found a way to travel dimensions, every world I visited couldn’t have been reached again?

So instead, I said. “Yeah, it is something.”

“Well,” Elsa nodded, “we can try to help you find this, door, you speak of. If you wouldn’t mind giving Grandpaie and the other troll’s the chance to look over it once you’re gone. So as we might find a….” She grumbled. “Find a way to get miss Snowdrop home as well.”

Shrugging, I answered, “I suppose so. Though, I’m not sure it still works once I cross through. But I’d be happy to stay for a little while after that.” I found myself saying that with more enthusiasm than I should have.

I then noticed Snowdrop perk up simultaneously at that.

Elsa clasped her hands. “Wonderful! Grandpaie, if you wouldn’t mind, have some of the troll’s look around the castle doors and see if they find anything strange about them. Though, is there anything else you can tell us about these doors, Pixel? I’d hate just to barge into everybody’s homes just to look through their closets.”

So I told her what else I knew, all while I noticed Snowdrop looking away from me whenever she thought I was glancing at her. Kicking the ground, all while whistling an innocent tone.

*****

The next few hours was spent with just me and Snowdrop wondering the halls as trolls and servants alike where opening and closing doors left and right. It had started off with an escort by Elsa as well. Constantly overbearing us, and always putting herself between Snowdrop and I. Till at one point, Snowdrop feel back, and flew me off so we could look on our own for the door. After that, it was the best possible time for me.

Sometimes we would look for the door. Most of the time, we talked about things only kids our age or a bit older would on a relaxing afternoon.

“We may be entitled to our opinions, but how can you like strawberry ice-cream the most?” Snowdrop questioned me.

“Hey, I like pin—Strawberries. Is that quite a crime.”

She shook her head. Then, playfully, teased, “You don’t need to be oh so sensitive about colors with me.” She chuckled. “Guess I now know how prince… Queen, Elsa feels.”

I laughed and smiled as we walked along.

While the more adventurous worlds on my journey were… Exciting, this was much more peaceful and down to earth. As Snowdrop and I talked about silly things such as favorite flavor of ice-cream, I had forgotten all about my little quest. The thoughts of my own home world where put on hold as I chatted it up with my new friend. So much so, that at one point we didn’t even bother to look at any doors.

That was, until I bumped into to someone.

“Pardon…” the man began, before looking at us. He then gave an irritated groan, muttered, “dumb ponies.” And was off.

Ear flattened on my head, I began to think back to the world that I supposedly wanted to go back to. For that matter, all the adults who seemed to look down at me more and more as I got closer to the end of high school.

I then felt a hoof pull me into a hug. “Don’t worry about it. Guess this place is still getting use to us. Although, try to avoid the children for as long as possible.” She shuddered. “You think Anna was bad, try surviving a herd of human fillies.”

I chuckled. “Well, you try not wanting to hug such an adorable mare if you meet one and let me know how long you last.”

She raised an eyebrow at me. “Oh, adorable, huh?”

I began to chuckle nervously, realizing that her hoof was still wrapped around me. To top it off, her face seemed to be moving ever more slowly towards me.

In a panic, I ended up slipping on some carpet. Which might have been alright, if I had stumbled us into a wall. Which, as it goes, had a hidden button on it. As such, the wall began to spin around, and Snowdrop and I were tossed into a secret passage.

“You know,” Snowdrop said, pulling herself up, “this is not what I had in mind when looking for your door.”

I groaned, having landed on my face. “Oh tell me about it.” I shook myself off and looked around to see that we were in some kind of tunnel that only lead one of two ways. While it wasn’t pitch black, without any torches, I had a feeling it would be once it got dark outside. “So what do we do?” I felt along the wall. “Doesn’t seem to be anyway to open this door from this end.”

“Let’s just wait a bit.” Snowdrop suggested. “I mean, I’m sure someone saw us fall in and will have us out in no time.”

I nodded. “Right.” I then started to say something, when I noticed Snowdrop fuming. “You okay?”

“Fine,” she grumbled.

“…Okay.”

We didn’t speak, didn’t move. In fact, we both seemed to be keeping from each other after that little incident.

Then, after some time had passed without the trap door opening, I spoke. “So, um… Is there anything we haven’t covered?”

Snowdrop picked herself up and turned her head down a hallway. “I don’t think anyone’s coming. Maybe we should find out where this goes while there’s still daylight for you to see.” Without waiting for a response, she walked forward.

“Oh, um… Okay.” I said, worried that I may have hurt Snowdrop’s feelings when I backed away from her possible kiss. I mean…. Oh heck with it! So maybe it was just because I had a Snowdrop plushie back home I would sleep with at night. Either way, I was crushing on Snowdrop. Whatever that made me a lesbian or someone that could like both genders was still in the air. However, the debate of if I liked her was no more; I had a crush on Snowdrop. That sweet, funny, mare who understood some of my pains back home, and was just a pleasure to be around. Besides, it’s not like any of my crushes back home liked me.

Noticing my silence as we walked, Snowdrop would occasionally look back at me. Only to keep moving forward, head down.

“Hang on!” I said at one point. “I think this is a room right here.”

“Oh?” Snowdrop looked around. “Where?”

“I’ll show—” I began to reach a hoof out to her, but she just backed away. “Or you can just follow my voice.”

She slowly nodded. “Yeah.”

We walked inside the room, and even though I couldn’t put my hoof on it. I felt an odd sensation towards it. Was the door nearby?

“Well,” Snowdrop muttered in an emotionless tone, “we better feel around so we can get you home.”

I silently agreed as she started to buzz around the room, feeling the walls.

“Snowdrop, are you alright?”

“Never better.” She said bitterly.

I, in a mild bit of anger, lite up my horn an encased her in my magic.

“Hey! What the….” She struggled in my grasp. “Pixel! Is that you? Put me down?”

“No, not until we sort this out.” I stomped.

She narrowed her eyes at me. “Yeah, and what’s that?”

I sighed and lowered her to the ground. “That’s what I like to know as well.”

A bit peeved, but saddened, she looked away from me. “Well, I…” A tear rolled down her eye. “You see I… Grr. Either way, don’t take offense, Pixel. I like hanging out with you, I do. You’re probably the first pony my age who enjoys just having a casual conversation with me.”

I blushed. “I can say the same thing about you.”

She chuckled, then frowned. “Maybe we shouldn’t have ditched Elsa just to hang out. Aside from the lecture I’m sure to get, I’ve gotten too close to you.”

I stomped a hoof. “And just how is that a problem?”

Quivering, she lowered her head, and muttered, “You’ll be leaving.”

I drew closer. “What?”

“You’ll leave, just like everypony else, alright!” I feel on my rear. “Sorry. I… I just… Look, can I tell you something.” She took a seat next to me. “Heart to heart.”

“I suppose so.” I responded, feeling a mix of unpleasant emotions run through me.

“Well… I don’t know what you may have heard about me, but before I came here, I was all alone. Even when I because the world famous, Snowdrop, creator of the snowflake, I was always alone. My mom died when I was young, even in the weather factory I don’t have any friends. Even princess Luna, who I looked to as a mother, only had limited time to interact with me because of her duties.”

I wanted to question the whole ‘mother’ thing. Since I clearly remembered seeing her in the short. However, now wasn’t the time, and besides, I always thought the story might have felt much stronger if that was the case anyways.

Snowdrop continued. “So then I came here, meet Elsa, and for the first time… I felt truly loved.” She lowered her eyes at me. “Don’t you dare breathe a word to anyone, but I think she considers me her daughter sometime. Would be nice. And of course, I have Anna, Olaf, Marshmallow, Sven and Flyn, who I should show you sometimes. As annoying as they can be, the trolls and little girls I’ll visit sometimes…” she got really quiet then. Taking in a large breath, she said, “Sometime, I’m thinking that I don’t want to go back to Equestria. A part of me doesn’t want those trolls to find a way. I want to stay here. I want…” she held a hoof to mine. “I want you to stay here with me, Pixel.”

I pulled my hoof back and jumped away. “What? I… Snowdrop.”

She sat up and advanced towards me. “Come on, Pixel. Didn’t we have fun together today?”

“Well, I… Ye… Yeah, we did, but—”

“And didn’t you say your world was as miserable as mine?”

I stopped and stared down. Finding it hard to protest with what she said. Was it really worth it going home? In only the past few days, I’ve been having more fun than I’ve had my whole life. I’ve made friends, had an amazing adventure, meet a beautiful mare…

Who had still been inching closer to me.

“Well, I…” I muttered as I found myself pressed to a wall with no escape.

Snowdrop sighed and looked away from me. “No. Look, I… Pixel. I didn’t mean to do that.” She groaned. “You probably think I’m selfish to try and keep you to myself.”

I frowned, and made my way towards her. “Hey, I never said it wasn’t a bad idea.”

She perked up. “Really?”

I bit my lip. “Well…” I looked into those beautiful, pale white eyes. Knowing the one thing I could do to make them sparkle for all time. “I… Maybe. I mean…”

“Hey,” Snowdrop assured, placing a hoof on mine. “I don’t want you to feel like you have to do this. I mean, if there really is a good reason for you to get home, that’s fine.” She inched closer to me. “But…”

I weakly smiled and lifted up her chin. “You know… this world is rather nice.” My heart beamed as I looked at her smile. “You know, I… I’ll promise I’ll think about it. Okay?”

She nodded blissfully. “That’s good enough for me.”

In a fit of emotions, I lifted up her chin with my hoof. “Besides, I do know one thing.”

Her eyes started to half close. “Yeah,” she said dreamily, “what’s that?”

“There’s one thing this world can offer me my world can’t.” Then, before I could utter the cheesy line of herself. We found our lips closing the distance with each other, as we became one pony. One pony from two different worlds, who saw no reason to get back to their home while they had everything they could want right in front of them.

All of the sudden, a bright light pierced the darkness. “Snowdrop, Pixel?” Elsa shouted. “Are you—WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING!?”

Eyes snapping open, we pulled apart and nervously looked back and forth between ourselves and Elsa as the ice queen crossed her arms and began to tap her foot.

“So, um…” Snowdrop began to kick at the ground. “We found a secret passage that could have ended badly for someone if they stumbled upon it… I’d consider that a good day.”

Chapter 6: Elsa's Snowdrop (Part 2)

Additional Category(ies): [Romance]

It had been over a week, yet Elsa still hadn’t gotten any sleep since that… That unicorn, had come into her Snowdrop’s life. She moaned at the thought as she pulled herself out of bed. Dressed for the day, and departed her room for the day.

“Morning, your majesty,” one of her servants bowed as she exited her bedchambers.

“Morning, George,” she nodded with a yawn. “Please present me with the news.” She rubbed her eyes. “Straight.”

“Well, we got a few citizens with a territory dispute.”

The rest of what he said was lost to Elsa. As she saw Pixel poke her head out of her room, followed by Snowdrop, hovering above, wide smile on her face.

“Yes, yes,” Elsa mentioned, pupils dilating. “Have someone take care of it. Let me know if anything escalates.” She raced over to the foals.

“Morning, young ladies!”

“Oh, um…” Pixel quivered, “Morn… Morning, Elsa.” She looked down. “Sleep well?”

Elsa crossed her arms and nodded. “Indeed. Though, I thought I wanted you two in separate rooms.”

Snowdrop groaned and rubbed her head. “We we’re only in there for a minute!” She protested.

“Yes! However!” the fillies only half jumped at Elsa’s raised voice. More or less growing weary from how protective she had become since the pair became somewhat a couple. “I would like it if you at least had someone with you both at all times. Furthermore—”

“Having a good morning then?” Kristoff interrupted.

Rubbing her head, she faced her friend. “Kristoff, I’m not in the mood for teasing today.”

He chuckled and looked over Elsa’s shoulder. “Neither are they, it seems.”

Blinking, Elsa turned to see the fillies had already dashed out of sight.

“Oh!” Elsa commanded, floor turning white, “Just wait! Kristoff, follow them!”

Kristoff chuckled. “Even if I found them, they lose me in fifteen minutes.”

Elsa groaned. “Fine, then I’ll—”

“Send someone else? Ten.”

Her eyebrow began to twitch. “Well, perhaps Olaf could at least—”

“Not even a minute.”

Elsa collapsed onto a wall.

“Hey,” Kristoff assured, “look on the bright side; At least they can’t get each other pregnant.”

Elsa glared daggers as Kristoff broke out into laughter. “St… Stop that! It is not…” she found herself fighting a chuckle, “Funny!”

“It is, and you know it.”

Elsa rolled her eyes.

“Hey, they’re just kids. Or… Teenagers? I guess. Still wrapping my head around that—”

“Your point?”

He took a step back. “My point is, mother dearest, is that you just gotta let her grow.”

Elsa rubbed her head. “Oh great. Now you got me worried that I’m becoming my mother.”

Kristoff placed a hand on her shoulder. “Oh stop that. No you’re not. You just need to—”

Elsa raised a finger. “If you say cool it—”

Hands up, Kristoff answered. “I was going to say relax!”

Elsa remained silent. “Well… I guess that little Pixel does make her happy…”

“Jealous too I… Sorry, sorry! No more.”

Elsa nodded. “See to it.”

With a sigh, Kristoff leaned onto the wall next to his friend. “Though, if you like, I can still try to watch over them for you. No promises I’ll keep them out of a hay pile, but the least I can do is make sure they don’t get hurt.”

Face scrunched, Elsa nodded. “Thanks, Kristoff.”

“Anytime.” He then pushed himself off the wall and stretched. “Though, and I mean this in all seriousness! You should try going to a spa or something. I was going to check out this one guy who claims to be one of best masseurs in the world.” He spun his arms. “A little rough at first, but does wonders.”

“What’s his name?” Elsa blinked. “Not that I need it.”

Kristoff shook his head. “Bu… Bud… Bluk… Something. I’ll ask next time I see him.” He then flashed Elsa a smile. “Still, just take care, and don’t worry. Your little Snowdrop isn’t going anywhere… Any more so than her little girlfriend.” He bolted before Elsa could blast him.

However, Elsa never did. She had more important things to deal with.

*****

It had been over a week, and messing with the Troll, with Snowdrop by my side, still felt exhilarating.

“Alright,” I whispered her head as I levitated several pens over their heads. “Almost… almost, and there!” I said as I hide them under a pile of books. “That should take up most of their day once they realizes what’s missing.”

Snowdrop giggled. “Yes. Now come on, we’re wasting daylight.”

Keeping our louder giggles in check until we made it outside, I continued to stare mesmerized at my marefriend.

Of course, even without Elsa’s constant lecture, it hadn’t been easy for us, mostly me. To be honest, I was still a little on the fence about this whole lesbian/sexual identity thing. Although, for the longest time, I was a bit more worried about our ages. Considering that, as a human, I was seventeen, while she seemed to be only twelve-thirteen years old.

However, after a little chat, I figured out her actually age was more likely around fourteen to fifteen years old. Yet, because Equestria schooling didn’t go any further than sixth grade unless they went to college or magic school, it technically meant she was more like a college freshmen.

So in the end, when you added the fact that we still acted much younger, we reasoned we we’re both the same age. Besides, all that mattered was, I liked Snowdrop, she liked me. Plus she wasn’t bad looking either.

“So,” she asked me once we made it out into the fresh air of the Forge’s forest. “What to do today. A whole world of possibilities.”

I grinned. “Well…” I pulled her leg and brought her muzzle inches from mine. “I could kiss you…” she blushed and closed her eyes. “If you can catch me.”

I bopped her noise and ran off.

“Oh, it is on, Pixel!”

Laughing like mad, our little game of chase last for about five minutes. I had taken to hiding behind a tree, thinking I had lost her. When something bumped on my head.

I looked up, and much like a predatory looking down at her pray, she said, “Peek-a-boo.”

I gasped, more playfully, so she knew it was me, and that I had lost, before she folded her wings in and tackled me.

“Okay, okay!” I wiggled under her grasp. “You win, you win?”

She leaned into my face. “Yes I did. Now I want my prize.”

Laughing like an idiot, I reward her like I always did. With a nice, long kiss.

"You sure seem busy."

I stopped and looked up to Snowdrop. “What was that?”

Her blank eyes stared down at me. “What was what?”

“Um… Nothing.” I then pushed her off of me. We then laid on our bellies, scooted next to each other. Then, with her wing around me, our tail intertwined, we began to kiss again.

I was feeling alive. On top of the world. It was just me and—

"It’s actually Snowdrop, and I. Grammar, dear."

My eyes widened as I saw Discord a few yards away.

"Then again, you seem to be very forgetful. Course, I can only imagine why.”

I pulled back from Snowdrop and screamed.

“Pixel, what’s wrong?”

“Didn’t you…” I stared at her, then back at to where Discord had been. “I mean.. You didn’t hear anything, did you?”

She began to circle her head. “Why, someone follow us? And how would you have heard them if I didn’t?”

I lowered my head.

After a while without a response, Snowdrop glanced at me. “Pixel?”

I sighed. “I thought I saw Discord. And I think he was trying to remind me about looking for the door.”

I turned away before I could see her frown. “Pixel—”

We both jumped as Marshmallow broke in from the trees.

“Something wrong?” He asked.

While I had gotten use to seeing him, I still hadn’t gotten over how intimidating her could be. Even if he just wanted to protect us.

"Oh?" I heard Discord say. Then, I looked up in horror, as I saw Marshmallow’s face warp. It twisted, and turned, until it became Discord’s. "Well, I’d say he’s doing a good job at his job.” His face began to churn some more, twisting into several bullies I’ve known all too well throughout my life. Each new face appearing between every word. “Or, perhaps, you, are, the, one, doing, poorly. Crybaby. To, sacred?"

I screamed, and darted from the forest, ignoring Snowdrop’s plea’s to slow down.

*****

Perhaps hours had passed, but all too shortly, I collapsed in exhaustion.

"Wouldn’t have taken you as one that would give up so easily."

I groaned and looked up to the draconequus, sitting in a tree, sipping a cup of tea.

Sighing, I said, “So what? Are you just going to pull me away from this world now?”

"Now, why would I do that?”

My horn began to light up. “Didn’t stop you from plucking me away from my home.”

He snorted. "Oh, as if you seem to be in a hurry to get back."

My horn fizzled out.

"I got to say, dear, you sure know how to pick'em." He materialized a jacket. "Course, there’s always the issue of the weather. Heaven forbid how that snow queen will take it if you popped the question to her, little Snowdrop."

I looked away, feeling my face heat up. “Wh… What do you want?”

He clicked his tongue and shook his head. “Oh, my dear Pixel, it was never about what I want.” His face, to my horror, then began to twist into my mom’s. “Lean, lean, where are you?”

My eyes widened. “Mom—”

His face then turned into Snowdrop’s. “I thought you loved me Pixel.”

I shut my eyes and shook my head. “You’re not real.”

Choosing to open them, I saw him face to face with me. “Maybe… But what is?”

“Pixel!” I heard Snowdrop’s name as she flew down next to me. “Pixs, what’s wrong?”

Breath heavy, I looked to where discord had been.

Snowdrop’s narrow. “If that chaos lord touches you, Luna help me—”

I placed a hoof on her shoulder. “Let’s just go.”

Her face feel blank. “Pix—”

I pulled away and started back to the castle. We didn’t speak the whole time except when she asked if I wanted to fly down.

I nodded.

****

Dinner that night was eaten in silence that night. Neither of us feeling in a very talkative mood after what had happened in the forest. I had to at least respect Elsa for noticing our foul mood and not making anything out of it.

“So,” Anna spoke instead, “you two alright?”

I sighed and pushed my half eaten salad away. “Just have a lot on my mind.”

“Um,” Elsa said as I exited the table, “well… you have a… goodnight then.”

I heard them say a few more things until I exited the dining room. However, as I began to ascend into my bedroom, I felt an all-too familiar hoof rest on my back.

“You want to tell me more about it?” Snowdrop asked.

I sighed.

“You… You thinking about… Wanting to go home or—”

“NO!” I snapped. Perhaps a bit harsher than I should. “I mean… Why would I?” I chuckled nervously. “I have everything I want here.”

Snowdrop stared blankly at me.

Quick to respond, I held up her chin. “Hey, come now, Snowdrop, you know I love you, right?”

She smiled at me. “Yeah. And…” she blinked and pulled away.

“Snowdrop?”

She began to shuffle her hooves. “Just forget about it and get some rest.” She then kissed me on the noise. “Sure has been a crazy day, hasn’t it?”

I instinctively looked up. Half expecting the lord of crazy to make a snide comment. When he hadn’t, I calmed down to look at my beautiful Snowdrop. “Yeah. I’m sure everything will be better tomorrow.”

She giggled. “Alright. So I’ll see you bright and early to mess with the trolls?”

I kissed her. “You beat.”

We smiled and went our separate ways.

Making my way past my saddlebag, untouched for days, I slipped into my covers, hugged my pillow, and began to drift off into what I thought was going to be a pleasant night sleep.

~

At first, I was in nothing but darkness. Then a bright light made me shut my eyes as I found myself laying down on the floor by a fireplace. I was about to get up, when I saw that Snowdrop was leaning against me, snoring.

Even asleep she could be so adorable. Oh, how I wish I had a pair of wings to wrap around her. To keep her warm, happy, as we grew old to—

Before I could think of that last part, a bright flash, and a door appeared in front of me. Mesmerized, I pushed off of Snowdrop and reached towards it.

“Pixel? Where are you going?”

I turned to see Snowdrop looking at me.

“Are you leaving? I thought you didn’t want to go.” she started to cry.

My breath became deep. “I… I don’t—”

“Why would you want to go back to that?” she questioned, pointing at the door.

I looked behind me, where the door had turned a midnight red. There, I saw my world, only, it was night. Or rather, dark. That may have been the better word. When I looked into it, all I saw waiting for me were homework and tax papers, jerks that would never leave me alone.

When I looked behind me, I saw the mare I loved, holding a hoof out to me a smile. “Come on, let’s forget about that and go get some ice-cream, Pixel.”

I smiled. “Okay.”

I began to reach out a hoof to her, when from behind me, a soft voice whispered, “Lean?”

I turned around. “Mom…?”

“Lean, please come back.”

Her voice was warm, and inviting, like it always was. “Mom…” I started to cry, only to be interrupted by Snowdrop’s tears.

“No…I,” I began to frantically look between the door and my love. “I… I… How could I chose?”

“You don’t have to…”

*****

I shot up out of bed. Breathing heavy, I saw that I was morning, and threw a hoof onto my pillow.

“I can’t believe myself.” I said jumping up. I raced to the door, saddlebag on my back, ready to look for my door, when I nearly ran into Snowdrop. Hoof raised to the door, about to have knocked before I opened up.

“Oh, hey!” she smiled at me, leaning in for a kiss. And while I received it, I did so with less enthusiasm as I had before. “Something wrong, Pixel?”

I lowered my head. “Um…”

She put a hoof to my lips and giggled. “Well enough of that. You sure are a heavy sleeper when you want to be, girl. Now come on, now we’re behind on putting those troll’s behind.”

I sighed and followed behind my oblivious girl— Wait, it would have been marefriend… I noted at how I thought ‘had been.’ While I’m sure I was in love of her, the fact remained; I couldn’t stay here. And I wanted to. I wanted to so badly. To escape from my drama at home, from the pains of growing up… to being with Snowdrop.

Oh Snowdrop, how was I going to end it with her? How could I with how close we’ve been.

Those thoughts were interrupted as we passed by the now much more visibly secret room in which we had shared our first kiss. Oh, what a day it had been. Can still remember every little detail. From finding it, to Elsa interrupting us, to the funny feeling I had—

Lightbulb going off in my head, I veered from the hall and walked inside. Once in, I glanced around. Not sure what I was looking for or even doing, I levitated a few books off the shelves, placed them back, and then picked up something else.

Before I knew it, I heard a flap of wings behind me. Turning around, I saw a perplexed Snowdrop stare, while in my direction, at the floor. “You… get distracted, or something.”

I bit my lip.

She sighed. “You going to tell me what’s wrong?”

“What? I mean, nothing is… I mean…” I started to back away.

“Come on. Ever since our date in the woods, you’ve been acting weird. Are you…” it pained her to say those next words. And it hurt me even more to hear them. “You thinking of leaving?”

“What?! I…. Well, I…”

She snorted.

I stomped my hoof. “Oh? I mean, I have a mother back home, you know. And I bet she misses me very much.”

I had expected her to lash out at me after that. Clearly having gone over the line, considering that she no longer had a mother unless you counted Elsa.

Instead, she said, “I know.”

I paused mere inches from the wall. “You do?”

She sat on her hunches. “I… Look, I do. I was a fool to think you’d chose me anyways.”

I raised a hoof at her. “Snowdrop, no! It’s—”

“It’s what?”

I stumbled backwards, hitting the wall, and causing a loud ‘crack’ echo throughout the room. Minutes later, I looked at the newly materialized… Door. Then looked to Snowdrop.

“Pixel?” she whispered. “What was—”

“I found the door.” I said with no energy.

We stayed silent.

“So,” I protested, “should we… Tell the trolls? Give them—”

“I don’t think putting it off will do either of us any good, Pixel.”

I tilted my head. “W—”

She turned her back on me. “Just go, and get it over with.”

I looked to the door. Eagerness filling me just to jump through it. However, I wouldn’t end it like this. Throwing myself on Snowdrop, I fought for several seconds her failing hooves into she too, joined me in the hug.

“I really don’t want to let you go. You know, right?” I cried.

“Yeah, I do.” She began to rub my back.

I sighed contently into her hug. “Though, you seem awfully calm about it.”

She lifted our heads up. “Hey, why don’t I go with you? It be the perfect solution!”

It did seemed like it. However, two things brought me out of that delusion. “You can’t. I’m not sure if you could even pass through the door. More so, I’m not sure you’d be able to come back.”

She huffed. “Not like I don’t have anything here.”

“You have Elsa.”

“…”

I gave it to her straight. “You know she loves you, right?”

“… I guess.”

“So dose my mom and…” I clicked my lounge. “Look, I really don’t want to go, but I have too.”

She drew me into another hug. “I know, Pixel, I know.”

We stayed like that for a bit, before I had to pull away. “Guess I should get going. Before this becomes too difficult.”

“Yeah.”

I started to walk towards the door. “Oh… and Pixel? Do me a favor when you get home; Live your life. Don’t be like I was in Equestria, all shut up, by myself. I’m sure our time together will be some you’ll cherish forever. And do hold on to that. Learn from this, and apply it to your own life. I’m sure there’s another me in your world. Ready to shower you with endless love and to make you as happy as your family. Just never, ever, take them for granted. Also, if I’m honest… I know Elsa cares about me, and I care about her too. And while I wish I never have to go home… A part of me still does. It’s where I’m from, and that’s why I’m letting you go.”

Unable to contain myself, I raced over to her and planted a long tender kiss on her lips. When I opened my eyes, I saw that her own were just as puffy as mine had to be.

“Hey, I… I promise I won’t forget you.”

She lightly chuckled, and then pushed me towards the door. “Now go, before something makes you change your mind.”

I slightly nodded, and walked towards the door. Looking back one last time, I tried to put on a smile for her. And even though she couldn’t see me, she knew how I was truly feeling. With one last, long, breath, and before I could have a second though, I stepped through.

*****

Once through, and in the countless hall, the love stuck filly of me thought this was a horrible mistake. I turned back to my love, but her world was already gone.

“You know, they really need to make tragic romance stories short.” My blood began to boil as I faced discord. Sitting in a hammock, reading a copy of Romeo and Juliet. “I mean, we know it doesn’t end well because they simply can’t be, but they try anyways.”

My horn began to flare. “You…” with a primal cry, I raced forward, only to have him disappear.

“Hey now,” he said out of thin air, “I never said you had to fall in love with anyone.”

Heart pounding, I slammed my hoof on the ground. “What do you bucking want from me? Huh? How much longer do I have to play this stupid game?!”

He didn’t answer.

Then after I got no response, I collapsed onto the floor, and started to cry. I’m not sure how long I did, and I may have cried for a while longer. If not for thinking about the love that I had lost, last words ringing out, “live.”

With a sigh, I realized that sitting around and mopping wasn’t going to fix my problems. Letting them out sure helped. Maybe when I had time in another world I could cry some more. However, it wasn’t getting me home—and to my mom—anytime soon by sitting around here.

With a heave, I lifted myself up, swung my backpack over my shoulder, and now, with another soul I had to please and fight for, I made my way to the next door.

Author's Note

Well, well, well, look what we have here! The second and final chapter of the world of Elsa's Snowdrop. I honestly felt bad for Pixel. But it had to happen or else this would be a whole different story instead.

Anyways, hope you like this, and the next chapter shall be made. Also, if anyone wants to make a chapter around something else, for example, Pixel/Lean going through a simple video game world, shall be accepted, but it will only be labeled as a bonus door. So if anyone wants to make a chapter like that, I won't reject it! So for now, see ya!

Chapter 7: Planet of the Ponies

Additional Category(ies): [Comedy]

It was a typical bright morning in Ponyville, as my two friends, Jonathan and Andrew, and I (your smart and incredibly handsome narrator) were having ourselves another pointless walk around the town that became our permanent home.

Our trivial stroll was immediately put on hold by the sudden arrival our Twilight's dragon assistant, Spike. "Jeffrie, guys," he panted for breath. "You've got to come see this!"

"What is it?" I asked.

"Just come with me." Wasting no more time, Spike grabbed my hand as he was leading us onward to Twilight's place.

The minute we all went inside the big tree that Twilight and Spike call home and gone up the spiral stairs, the guys and I were practically stunned when we'd laid eyes upon the human girl who was standing next to Twilight. Ever since we first came to this planet, we've always thought that we'd be the only humans around. But now there is another right in front of us; a woman no less.

Jonathan and Andrew were definitely ready to shout "giggity!" anytime soon, but I however managed to have more self-control than them. (Probably because I was never too attracted towards girls with glasses.)

Anywho, I was the first to greet this woman. "Hi there, do you have a name?"

"I'm Leandra," she told us. "What about you three?"

I then gave her my name, "I'm Jeffrie."

Jonathan slid next to her while he kissed her hand like a perverted french man. "My name's Jonathan."

Leandra backed away only to find herself bumping into Andrew. "Hey, name's Andrew." he then pulled up one of his sleeves as he extended his arm to her. "Wanna feel my muscles? I used to be a football player, you know."

After pulling Andrew away from her, I then asked, "So, how did you get here?"

Twilight was the one who answered. "Well, I was just studying as usual when Leandra here crashed through my roof out of nowhere." she pointed to the big whole on her ceiling. "And while I was here talking to her, I had Spike come get you guys to bring her to your home."

Leandra was suddenly like, "Wait, you mean I got to live with them?!"

"Well of course Leandra," Twilight told her. "It only makes sense that you stay around your own kind for now. You've only just got, so everypony might not be ready to know that there's another human in Equestria."

"And besides," Spike added. "Jeffrie and the guys have been by themselves for quite a long time; so they could use your company."

Upon hearing this, Leandra's whole body froze stiff in a "what the fuck?!" expression was stuck on her face. While Andrew and Jonathan were lifting her away, I turned to Twilight and Spike and said, "OK, we'll let her stay at our place. We don't exactly have a guest room, but we'll manage."

When we all stepped inside our house, the stench was enough to snap Leandra out of her daze. I then began to give her a tour. "This is our living room, we mostly just sit around the couch and watch movies or play games. Right next to you is the answering machine that we use for our door," I took the machine off and placed it on the table. "Whenever we leave, we just connect this baby over to the doorbell and then some of ponies can leave us messages. We don't have any, but I will play the tune." I then pushed the button that made us listen to the answering tune.

(Jeffrie): Believe it or not, we are not home. Please leave a message at the beep!

(Jonathan): We must be out, or we'd open the door.

(Andrew): Where could we be?

(Together): Believe it or not, we're not home!

"OK, now that that's of the way, let's get back to the tour."

...

Fifteen minutes later, we all sat on the couch by the time we were done giving Leandra a tour of the place. I looked at her and asked, "So what's Earth been like? Has anything changed lately?"

Before she could answer, that's when the door started to knock. I opened it and saw Fluttershy. "Hi Jeffrie, I thought I'd stop by and give you these extra cans of Colt for helping me with my home renovations."

She then gave the cans of Coke--or Colt as the ponies call it--and I in turn gave her my thanks. "Well thanks Flutty, that's very kind of you."

Fluttershy looked past my waist and that's when she saw our house guest. "Um...Jeffrie, who's that?"

"Her? That's Leandra, she's going to be staying with us for awhile. Hey Leandra, there's someone I want you to meet!"

As soon as the two of them were by themselves, Fluttershy beckoned Lenadra to come closer and that was when she got to see a new side to the Element of Kindness. "Listen Missy, you just stay away from Jeffrie; he's mine! And nopony, not even some two bit tramp like you is going to take him away from me! You got that?!"

Leandra just brushed her little threat off and said, "Oh Fluttershy, you're so cute when you try to act tough sometimes."

"Don't say I didn't warn you."

As soon as she was gone, Leandra walked up to us and said, "Look guys, it's been nice and all, but I really have to go."

"Go? Go where?" Andrew asked.

"This may sound confusing, but I really need to find a white door."

"How come?" Jonathan wondered.

"It's a long story, but it goes like this..."

While she was giving us her backstory, Fluttershy was heading to Sugarcube Corner to speak with her friends. They were already talking about the new arrival by the time she came inside. "Ooh, isn't this exciting, girls?!" Pinkie exclaimed. "We're going to have a new human friend!"

"I'm for one just glad that it isn't a boy," Rarity declared. "I just can't wait to make her some new dresses."

"Well I'm just glad that Jeffrie, Jonathan, and Andrew won't be so alone anymore." Twilight said. "And who knows, maybe they might having little baby humans."

"I don't think that might be such a good idea, Twilight." Fluttershy let herself be known.

"Why you say that, sugarcube?" Applejack inquired.

"Well, would you really want them to be having babies? Would any of you want to see Equestria become over populated with more humans?"

As the idea of millions of our babies ruling Equestria was sinking into their brains, Rainbow Dash shouted, "Sweet Celestia, she's right! What are we gonna do?!"

"Simple, we just get rid of the girl. Without her, Jeffrie and the others can't bring anymore humans to this world." a sinister smile was beginning to form on Fluttershy's face.

"...And that's why I need to go find the next door."

After Leandra had finished explaining everything to us, I was the first to say, "OK, we'll help you find it."

"Oh no, that won't be necessary."

"Bullshit. Besides, we ain't got anything better to do; and we've done a lot more crazier things than this."

We all wasted no time in leaving the house, but we were soon stopped by the Mane 6. They all had menacing looks that were targeted towards Leandra, and they were all wearing the Elements of Harmony. "Is something wrong?" Leandra asked.

Twilight then said, "I'm sorry Leandra, but I'm afraid you're no longer welcome here."

As their elements started to charge up, I quickly shouted, "Oh my God look, a three headed dragon that's destroying Ponyville!"

They of course fell for it, and it gave us enough time to run away and be chased by them. What followed next was typical chase that included us running into doors in many silly ways, stopping in a picture booth to take pictures only to run out when the ponies where inside, and then showing us playing instruments while the song "I'll be there for you" was playing in the background.

It happened for a good twenty minutes until we were suddenly teleported to a room surrounded by TV screens and two white doors. And there, sitting in front of us, donning a white suit, was Discord.

"Discord, what is this place?" Leandra asked him.

"Why this where I watch your little miss adventures, my dear Leandra." the lord of chaos replied. "I must say that little chase was rather fun. But I got bored and decided to just bring you to the next door."

"But there's two of them." she pointed out.

"I know, which is why you must choose. If you choose the right door, you'll enter another mad world. But if you choose the left door, you'll go home. Which one will it be, Leandra?"

"Isn't it obvious, I'm taking the left door. Bye guys."

The second she went through that door, I looked at Discord and said, "You tricked her into picking the wrong door, did you?"

"Yes." he chuckled.

Author's Note

Heya! Pixel here and also this new chapter that was made by theanonymousbrony who created the story Planet of the Ponies. In all honesty, this chapter seemed short, but fun. I bet the next chapter has Lean screaming in rage over how she was fooled so easily. Then again, you never know when the God of Chaos is being honest or not.

Anyways, hope you like this chapter. Like, comment, fave, or even message me if you have a story that you want either a short human or a pink unicorn to go through and meet the characters in your story. Thanks for reading!

Door 8: Deadpool in Equestria

Additional Category(ies): [Comedy]

Home. I was finally going to be home. The first thing I knew I was going to do is probably find a way to Discord-proof my house! Wait? What if I got home, but I’m no longer a human? Would I be a pony back home? Huh… Never really though of that. Maybe it’s-

CLANG!!!

“WHOAH!!!” Some force landed right behind and I was fired! Everything was a blur, but I slid into a, though not entirely, cramped space, followed by… elevator music? ...Wait a minute. I opened my eyes; they were a bit blurry, but I could see I was looking at some figure in red. I shook my head. The figure came into clear view: turns out, the guy wore a red, spandex suit with some black, but noticeable white eyes.

“I give that slide a 9 outta 10.” He said. Aw great, I knew who it was: Deadpool! “That’s right!” If there two things I knew, it was that I’m going to be annoyed by this guy, and Discord lied to me! I felt so much rage in my body!

“DISCORD!!!” I shouted aloud. So much for going home. I… I should’ve known. I was such a fool for trusting that snake! I turned myself and looked at my body again. I was Pixel Berry again. Well… who cares anymore? I couldn’t help but tear up. I felt so much rage, sadness, and gulibility at the same time. Then I felt my mane being rustled by the Merc with a mouth.

“There, there.” He said in a calm, relaxing way. “I know how it’s like to be tricked.”

“... I don’t want to talk to you.”

“Hm? No even after this!?” I then felt his hands scratch behind my ears… and it was AMAZING!!! I guess that, being a pony, this is pretty much the best thing anypony can wish for; a effective scratch behind the ears. It was very therapeutic, and I actually felt some happiness. He stopped after a few moments. I looked up to him.

“...Thanks.”

“Aw, anytime, my filly!” He extended his hand to me. “Deadpool, though you pretty much knew me already.” I reached out and placed my hoof to his hand.

“Pixel Berry.”

“Or is it Leandra?”

“...What? How did you-?”

“Oh I know a lot of things about you! Like how you and MrAquino teamed up a couple of times for that weird, other Anthology called ‘Tales from Tinies’. God, he’s so weird, but then again, here we are, in a magic elevator, going to see random things happen on each ‘floor’ before going to my house, in what is a part of your Anthology the extend the doors animations, both the stick figure and pony SFM video.” I could only blink.

“Uh… ok?” I squeaked as he held me like a baby.

“Listen! Don’t give up, okay? You’re going to go through a lot, and I do mean, A LOT of weird things! You could say I’m one of them, but since you’re tired of running and finding the next, I got a good feeling that, at the very end of this ride, you’ll see it. Just know that, for many enemies you’ll meet, they’re nothing more but obstacles in your path to victory, as new friends will be your guides.”

“...Whoah… that’s… I never really thought of that. Thanks, I needed that.” He rustled my mane even more.

“Anytime! Let’s just stand back and enjoy the Elevator of Chaos.”

“...What?”

“Sorry, MY Discord allowed me to use this as a means to get away from that big, BIG mare!”

“Wait, the one that wanted the princess dress during that one episode?”

“Yep. That one.”

“But why?”

“...She finally had the taste for human flesh.”

“O...kay. So, we’re just gonna ride this elevator?”

“Yeah. Thankfully, your door knocked that mare out. Next stop, my crib!” He clicked on a button on the elevator. The door closed and... were we ascending or descending? I guess this elevator was just going to be as random as Discord himself… or Deadpool for this. Might as well try to enjoy the ride; if he believes the door to my next adventure was at the end, I might as well go with it. That, or walk around aimlessly again, but, at least it’s good enough to get an idea of where I should look. The elevator dinged. The doors opened to reveal some fiery, dungeon place, with a pony skeleton standing near the door. The skeleton didn’t acknowledge us, but instead, walked to one of walls and just… stood there.

“Huh… guess it’s just you and me that don’t act like NPCs here, eh?”

“... I guess.”

We waited for at least five minutes until we hit another stop. With how random this was was, and how long each ride was, I guess it was going to be a bit boring with some interesting & exciting things happening every now & then.

The elevator opened again, showing a forest. It was peaceful… that is, until a random stormtrooper fell from the sky, landing hard on the floor with a cartoonish smack! To say he died would be false, as it got up, shook itself off, and entered our elevator.

We saw what was a factory in the process of making robots, all humanoid, but ranging from different movies, from Star Wars to Terminator. It kinda looked… a bit peaceful. That was, until all the robots began to dance the Robot with the super catchy ‘Mr.

The next place was a place on fire, and a man stood in the fire, looking peaceful, unaware of his surroundings. He walked into our elevator… but his head was still on fire! Deadpool pulled out a bag of marshmallows with some sticks and offered me one. I accepted it, and we had some delicious s’mores.

Another place opened, and the place outside looked liked something out of a zombie movie! The place was just wrecked with what I could presume was blood on the walls, but it was so dark, I couldn’t see anything! Loud moaning was heard, and a Zombie walked the elevator, though it wore a cleangentleman suit with a matching tophat & monocle. Let’s just say that the next room was his next stop.

Instead of the doors opening, the walls slid away, revealing only darkness. Deadpool held me close to him as everything became dark. We stood next to the flame guy, but our sights went full dark! A loud, monstrous screech was heard, along with sound of something ripped & chomped on. We both breathed hard, and the zombie was gone, albeit, only the clothing left behind. Deadpool took the hat & monocle.

The door opened, and we saw… ourselves? Well, it was almost ourselves; we were gender swapped. Both Deadpool and I waved to our alternate selves, and they waved back. That was very interesting.

The next floor was… an empty hallway. It didn’t look that threatening, nor inviting. But we heard a crack. The floor broke beneath us. We both screamed loudly, but it ended rather quickly as we landed in another elevator. I shivered in fear, but, lucky for me, Deadpool was still there, relaxing me greatly.

A relaxing beach came next. A random pony in a swimsuit joined us. Nothing really interesting there.

A jungle was there, and the floor shook. We heard the most loud, and yet, notable roar! Out of the jungle came a T-rex! We both froze as it sniffed the air. It turned to us and roared again! We screamed as it charged to us, pushing the elevator back a bit! I’m just glad the door shut and we moved again.

Luckily, the next floor was just, who I could presume, was a recolored Braeburn, sitting on a chair, playing a western tune on it’s guitar.

Next, we saw… a giant, floating cat, shooting lasers out of it’s eyes, at Eagles, surrounding Macho Man Randy Savage with a fishing pole as he has on a sunglasses wearing sun, then followed by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s head on the muffin man’s body riding a shamu, which opened it’s mouth and fired out Iron Men. Yeah… I’m done.

The door dinged, and the place looked like a fancy apartment complex. All of our visitors with us exited.

“Looks like this is our stop.” Deadpool said. I nodded and we entered the room. In the middle of the living room, was the door.

“Huh… that was easy.” I said to myself.

“Yeah. You may want to go in there, but please, take this.” He placed a plate with a Chimichanga on it on my head. “For your next meal.”

“Aw, thanks, Deadpool.” I said.

“No problem! Now go and find your way home!” He opened the door for me. I walked in, but he stopped me. “Almost forgot! SELFIE!!!” I smiled as he took our selfie. “Alright, NOW you can go.” I took a deep breath as I entered the door, but took a bite out of the chimichanga he gave me.

“Hm… not bad.”

Author's Note

Hello everypony, Pixel here and this story was made by the amazing MrAquino, who made the story "Tales from Tinies". He made this as a way to return the favor as I wrote two chapters in his said story. Granted, it's a bit weird, but I can't help but write stories that relate to size difference(the ponies were just a bonus).

Anyways, hope you like this chapter! Like, fave or even comment on good or bad things about this chapter. Not random enough? Should Pixel have been more angry? And should Deadpool break the fourth wall even more? Until next chapter, see ya!

Chapter 9: Descending to Equestria.

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

The Beginning

'Ugh... my head hurts. What was I doing last night..?' I thought as my eyes fluttered open and all I saw was white. I sat up, blinking a few times to see if my eyesight was just getting worse. I was just about to fix my glasses on my nose, until I saw something pink and fuzzy moving for my nose. I yelped in surprise and backed away. I looked around to see what that fuzzy thing was. I then noticed something that didn't look like my nose, yet it was in the exact spot of where my nose would be. I was about to touch the fuzzy thing, when the first pink thing came back again. 'Hold on... is this my arm!?' I did the movement of stretching my arm out and what looked like a pink fore-hoof extended outward. I did the same with my other, seeing another fore-hoof, while also losing my balance while sitting and fell to the floor with a small "Oof!" I then tried to get up again, having a bit of trouble with four legs now. After awhile of walking around and even trotting and galloping, I seemed to gotten the hang of walking like a pony. "Welp. Looks like I'm a pony now. Or a mare to be exact." I said out loud.

"What was your first guess?" I heard a familiar voice.

"Is that John de Lancie?" I said as I looked around the white room. In a bright flash, a very familiar draconequus was in front of me. He was floating with his pegasi and bat wings splayed out. He quickly flew over to where I was standing and showed a grin that didn't settle within me. He gave a small chuckle before teleporting away from me with another flash and now there were blue mini cannons and a "Congratulation" banner. Before I could question it, the cannons went off and confetti with a sound of a party horn shot out of the cannons and the confetti was everywhere. The draconequus then flashed in the center of the simple setup. With a snap of his talons, the banner and cannons were gone, but the confetti was still either floating down or on the floor already.

"Congratulations my little human and pony." He finally spoke. "You, out of the many people on your small planet were chosen to partake in my little game."

"Game? What game?" I asked more than confused. 'Even if this was a game, how? We're in a small white room with no exit.' I thought to myself.

"I am so glad you asked, Leandra, or should I say Pixel Berry." He grinned as he saw my shocked face that he knew both my real and pony name my older sibling created for me. "I have visited your world from time to time. I find your chaotic personalities quite amusing. And I even love some of your so called 'Animations'." He said.

"What does animation have to do with why I'm here?" Sounding a bit ticked off.

"Well, do you know the little animation called "Doors"?" He asked. Now that I thought about it, I think it started out in a blank room. Or was it pitch black? I can't remember.

"I...I guess I do." I finally answered.

"Great! Then this will be the least complicated. Based on that little animation, I created a small game for you to go through doors and different rooms. Some may be easier than others, but I'm going to make it a bit more interesting." He said with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes.

"More interesting?" I got both curious and worried, with the god of chaos in control, anything could happen.

"Indeed. Instead of being them small rooms, I 'expanded' them a little more and made it more of a scavenger hunt to find the exit and entrance to the next room." He said.

"Mhm, and what if I don't want to play this game of yours?" I said, thinking that maybe I can leave without playing this dumb game.

"If you don't play, then you don't leave. And you stay in this room for however long you can last without food or water." He said. "And might I add that there is a special surprise at the end?" He grinned again.

"Surprise?" I was getting more nervous than interested. Again, the surprise can be anything with the god of chaos.

"Ah, ah, ah. If I told you the surprise, it wouldn't be a surprise anymore." He said. He then snapped his fingers and I saw a door appear a few feet off the ground, but on the wall. It was a cracked open when I saw a bit of the blue sky and clouds, a simple black stairway that was floating in mid air and was only some flat pieces of black flooring hovering in an ascending fashion. "Just go through that door and the game will begin." In a bright flash, he was gone, the confetti disappearing as well. I then turn around from the door and saw a black door on the opposite wall. 'Is that the exit? I thought he said there was no exit...' I thought as I slowly walked to the black door.

With a hesitant hoof, I opened the door to see nothing but more black. I place my hoof through the door opening and nothing happened, I placed my hoof down to see if there was any flooring. There wasn't. I then heard a small growl. I stuck my head through to see what made that sound. But I quickly brought my head back as a creature I couldn't see except for its black silhouette, red glowing eyes, and sharp shark-like evil grin. I quickly shut the door, not noticing that I used magic to slam it shut.

"Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope." I said after every step up the stairs and right to the white door. I let out a small sigh as I placed a hoof on the door. 'Please let me leave this place. I haven't even started and I wanna go home.' I thought as I opened the door, it being even whiter then the room I'm in already. With so much nervousness in my mind and heart, I went through the door and felt the solid white ground on my hooves as the only sound being herd was the clop of my hooves.

"Have fun~ Pixel Berry." I heard Discord say before a bright flash made me unable to see.
